Voyage of the Stars

After replenishing heavy metal substances, the three civilizations continued to gallop in the outer arm of the Milky Way. There is still a long way to go to the Galactic Center Alliance small universe recorded in the Divine Moment Civilization, which is about seventy or eighty years away.

That's about fifteen thousand light years.

The plan of mankind and Daya civilization is to use this time to complete the basic conventional fleet construction goal, which is 100 million ships.

Since part of it has been completed before, this goal is not difficult to achieve. Of course, the main reason is that the manufacturing of conventional ships and conventional battleships is not as troublesome as flagships.

Take human civilization as an example. Those battleships are not necessarily all sub-civilization-level battleships. They will also be mixed with a large number of permanent-level battleships, which form the regular combat power of the Covenant.

As for the people who drive them, they are naturally the individual beings of the Red Flame Civilization.

Some of them will also be made into unmanned warships driven by strong artificial intelligence, but the cost is much higher than using the Red Flame Civilization. Now time is tight, so the Covenant fleet represented by humans still uses the individual lives of the Red Flame Civilization as warriors. Mostly.

As for the elite fleet, it will naturally be driven by humans themselves, and they will all be warships equipped with consciousness linking equipment.

During this time, humans planned to increase the number of elite fleets from 30,000 to 100,000 ships. If you have enough time, there will be more. Anyway, humans have no shortage of third-person perspective drivers.

It is best to build more than 100 million ships before confronting the Reapers head-on.

However, some things are often difficult to achieve.

The Reapers have been harvesting in the Milky Way for so many years and finally found traces of the Divine Judgment Civilization. Naturally, they cannot stop here. The time they can give to the three civilizations is actually not that much.

No, not many years after the three civilizations had just completed the replenishment of heavy metal materials, they received a report from the fleet's peripheral detection spacecraft, saying that they had encountered an unknown detection spacecraft.

This "unknown" was quickly determined by the Divine Moment Civilization to be the Reaper's detection spacecraft. The meeting point was not at the rear of the fleet, but at the front of the route.

"It's not good. We have really been discovered this time." After receiving the message, the person in charge of Shenju Civilization immediately said on the three-party communication channel: "We have encountered them before when we came out of the small universe. It should be that The escaped detection spacecraft spread the news. As expected, there should be a fleet of reapers following our route, and the detection spacecraft we encountered now should belong to another fleet. "

The leader of the Daya civilization thought for a moment and then interjected: "In other words, we now have a wolf in front of us and a tiger in the back, and we are blocked from both ends by the reapers!"

The universe is a three-dimensional space, and there is no such thing as blocking at both ends. The words of the leader of the Daya civilization are actually a metaphor, which is how it is translated into Chinese. Yue Yuan can naturally see it clearly.

But what he said is correct. The Reapers are speeding up their harvesting. They have obviously attacked in all directions, so they cannot have only one fleet. Perhaps there are Reaper fleets in many spiral arms of the galaxy now.

And the one that appeared in front of the three civilization routes was one of them.

"I hope the electronic warships don't come."

The first mate next to Yue Yuan muttered something, which was translated into the three-party communication in real time by the translation system, and he saw the person from Shenju Civilization saying: "There is nothing to hope for. Whatever the situation is, just wait for detection."

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader next to the Shenju people said: "Daya Civilization, if you are not good at fighting, I will leave the detection to you. No matter what method you use, you must crush me hard in the detection field." One head.”

Shenju Civilization spoke to the leadership of Daya Civilization as the leader of the united front. They bluntly said that Daya Civilization's combat effectiveness was not good.

In fact, the combat effectiveness of the Daya civilization is quite good. If humans were to evaluate it, they would definitely be stronger than ordinary level six civilizations.

In the years since humans built the Lyra, the Daya civilization has not stood still. Their consciousness uploading experimental project has been a complete success, and they have finally figured out the brain-computer integration.

Now the elite fleets of the Daya civilization are all battleships of that type, that is, the Daya people's brain is the battleship's sensory center, and all the information from the battleship detection system is connected to that brain.

However, the Daya people, like humans, cannot pilot a battleship alone.

To this end, they have also developed consciousness and sensory sharing technology to connect the consciousnesses of multiple Daya people to form a common load, which is similar to the shared vision of multiple people with human consciousness linking devices.

But with such technology, the Shenju Civilization still said that its combat effectiveness was not good, and the Daya Civilization had to admit it, because these words came from the Shenju Civilization, and a neutron battle star could make the Daya Civilization shut up.

The behavior of Shenju Civilization is that simple.

Sure enough, the next moment, the leadership of Daya Civilization heard Shenju Civilization say something completely different about human beings.

"Well, human civilization, now our detection spacecraft is already fighting the Reapers at the front end. I believe that the latest news will come back soon. Although the Daya civilization is not good at combat, their detection capabilities should be no problem."

"And now it is obvious that the other party's detection spacecraft has appeared behind us. Apparently they also have a fleet following our warp traces. It is very uncomfortable for us to have a tail following us, so now there are two directions. Let’s choose one of our two civilizations. When the battlefield information becomes clearer, um, do you choose the front or the rear?”

Yue Yuan thought for a moment and responded: "Let's go ahead!"

"Okay, then the rear will be handed over to our Neutron Battle Star." Shenju civilization said straightforwardly.

Shenju civilization can arrange it directly, but it still seeks the opinions of humans and lets humans choose for themselves, which makes the human leadership feel more comfortable.

It is a feeling of being respected.

A correct version in 16-9 book and 1 forum!

And such respect is based on the strong strength of humans.

As the Daya civilization exerts its strength, the number of exploration spacecrafts on one side of the three civilizations that form the united front increases geometrically, and the battles between exploration spacecrafts on the periphery become more intense.

They are equivalent to the scout battles between the two armies. They fight before the regular army enters the state of war.

Finally, after the Daya civilization paid the price of more than 100,000 exploration spacecrafts, the latest information was finally transmitted back to the command center of the three civilizations.

It is similar to what was expected before. There is indeed a harvester fleet in front, with about 120 million warships of various types. The specific number of each type is still unknown. There is also a fleet in the rear, with a smaller number of about 8 million warships of various types.

This number is not much for the large fleet composed of three civilizations, but everyone knows that the strength of the Reapers does not lie in their conventional fleets, but in their electronic warships.

At the same time, some Reaper detection ships successfully broke into the vicinity of the large fleet. Although those ships were quickly destroyed, they actually spread the news.

The Reaper fleet also knows the location and approximate size of the fleets of the Shenju civilization, human civilization, and Daya civilization.

"By the way, the electronic warships don't seem to be here, or they haven't arrived yet." The leader of the Shenju civilization seemed a little worried, and then said to the human civilization: "To deal with them, you'd better not use special technology to attack first, so that the electronic warships will be prepared at that time."

"Don't worry, we know." Yue Yuan replied on behalf of the human interstellar government: "With this little power, we won't use special technology to attack, but we are a little worried now. They won't confront us head-on."

The power comparison is huge, and the commander of the Reaper fleet must not be stupid.

They might be responsible for keeping an eye on the Shenju civilization, and now they are jumping out, maybe they want to harass the Shenju civilization, waiting for the support of the electronic warship.

If this is the case, it will be very bad. It is not the best time to face the harvester before finding the Silver Heart Alliance to understand the situation and gathering other level 6 civilizations in the Milky Way.
