From black technology to super engineering - #616 - Chapter 614 Colonial Claims
With the release of the last probe to the predetermined position through the missile compartment, it also means that the first strategic cooperation between humans and the Kodo people has achieved a phased success—the rest is the safe return of the Intrepid .
Through the observations of the activated detector network and high-dimensional detectors, the distance between Intrepid and the executor fleet is “very” close—about 1.5 light hours, or 1.5 billion kilometers. Of course, according to the current speed of the executor fleet, the 1.5 billion kilometers is enough for them to run for a month. But don’t forget, the Dreadnought has to turn around-the Dreadnought is now going head-on with the executor!
Don’t think that the deceleration and turning of the spacecraft is a matter of stepping on the brakes and turning the steering wheel. At a few thousandths of the speed of light, any change in trajectory must take into account the influence of G force.
Therefore, Li Dongsheng absolutely does not allow the Kodo tribe to mess around on the way back—especially after the Kodo tribe learned that the ancestral spaceship they were thinking of flew directly to the solar system… This group of Kodo people, all of them are like mourning concubines.
But fortunately, the humans have handled the ancestral spaceship very well. Whether it is from the beginning, it is ready to shoot down, or it is now “captured” and sealed. Humans have been sharing it with the Kodo people. The status of the spaceship—at this time the spaceship is parked in the space dock, and humans have been trying to communicate. It’s just a pity that according to the notification sent by humans, humans have not established any contact with the spacecraft, and just send various robots to go around the spacecraft every day.
As for why human beings sent an Asterisk to come over, Li Dongsheng can probably understand that human beings would definitely not be willing to let go of such an ancient relic, so they temporarily dispatched the Asterisk from the Canglan Star Base to come with the fleet—although To put it bluntly, the “Asterisk” was incorporated into the fleet as a support ship. But Li Dongsheng knew all too well that Canglan Star’s Asterisk is full of scientific research equipment, what can it support?
Therefore, Li Dongsheng proposed that when returning to the voyage, he, Chen Xiwen and other four human beings would enter the Asterisk and “return” on the Asterisk.
In this way, the real purpose of asking the asterisk can be concealed.
——For the information that Li Dongsheng can grasp at present, he can only consider this point.
…
On the Intrepid, Li Dongsheng closed the hatch, blocked the camera with authority, and tried to persuade Ye Ming for the last time.
“Mr. Ye, now that the Kodo people have completed their turn, it doesn’t mean they will give up and continue to explore the underground hangar when they return. Now that the asterisk has come over, why don’t you let us board the spaceship?”
“Captain Li, there is a high probability that the Kodo people will not continue to explore the underground hangar, and they won’t be messing around anymore.” During the communication, Ye Ming’s voice was a little smiling: “You can come back with peace of mind.”
“Why?” Li Dongsheng was stunned, very unconvinced: “You haven’t seen the faces of these people on the spaceship…”
“The Kodo people also need to eat, and the material reserve of the Intrepid is not enough to support your crew to stay on the YBTL04 planet for a long time to explore.” Ye Ming paused and continued: “If you don’t believe me, ask them.”
“…I don’t ask, you are not the one who is under the fence.” Li Dongsheng said in a low voice: “I don’t believe that you will drive the Asterisk and not go to the ground!”
Ye Ming was at a loss for words for a moment: “Er…”
“You see, I have done construction on the moon, and I am also part of the Canglan Star pioneering team. I know too well what robots can and cannot do.”
Ye Ming fell into silence, and sighed softly after a while: “Captain Li, you know, the main issue is safety…”
“What’s the matter? Anyway, the star is not on the battlefield, and YBTL04 is in the rear. If the situation is not good, can’t we just run?”
“That being said…”
“Mr. Ye! Can you stop the ink marks?” Li Dongsheng was really angry: “Humans are not so cowardly that they dare not even stay in the rear of the war, right? If humans colonize galaxies in the future, they will sit at home all the time. Going out of the house… Then tell me, what is the difference between this and us sitting in front of the computer and playing games?”
Li Dongsheng stared at the beautiful halo outside the porthole, and said word by word: “If we don’t really set foot on a planet, what’s the point of our interstellar exploration?”
There was a long silence in the communication.
“you’re right.”
…
Five days later, Intrepid and the Asterisk, which left the fleet, completed deceleration and re-orbit around a gaseous planet numbered YBTL05. Li Dongsheng and others took the landing module back to the Asterisk.
Judging from the other party’s performance of sending these humans away, the Kodo people were indeed relieved. After the completion, they did not wait for the star to accelerate again, and then directly accelerated and flew towards the direction they came from.
It looked like he didn’t want to go with Wen Xinghao.
Hmm… Li Dongsheng can’t wait.
Back on the familiar Asterisk, Li Dongsheng and Chen Xiwen came to the command cabin immediately, and connected to Ye Ming’s channel on the big screen.
“It feels good to go home.” Li Dongsheng sat on the command chair, looked at Ye Ming who was cast in the center of the command cabin, and said with a smile: “It’s just that there are few people.”
“Aren’t there two brothers? Where did they go?”
“They’re ready to eat, and we’re going to have a party tonight.” Chen Xiwen also sat in front of Li Dongsheng, smiled at Ye Ming, and said, “Academician Ye, I really appreciate it this time… You don’t know, We look at the faces of the Kodo people every day, tsk tsk…”
Ye Ming laughed: “Then you are coming back now?”
“Uh…that’s unnecessary.” Chen Xiwen immediately coughed, and then blinked again: “There is still a door to the underground hangar on planet 4 that hasn’t been opened, how can we return without success? Team Li, you Say it?”
Li Dongsheng nodded immediately: “Yes!”
Ye Ming shook his head with a smile, and then his expression became weird: “First, let me tell you a secret.”
“What secret?”
“The spaceship of the enlightener civilization was flown back under the control of Aita.”
Next, while Li Dongsheng and Chen Xiwen were stunned, Ye Ming told them the status quo of the spacecraft, and at the same time told them the current speculation about the YBTL04 planet.
When they heard that there might be a wormhole behind that door, Li Dongsheng and Chen Xiwen couldn’t help but uttered a series of foul words.
“Fuck! Let’s go this time…”
“So, you must be careful.”
“But how to open that door? Can we use the main laser cannon to cut it?”
“No, we have a password.” Ye Ming smiled and said softly: “You just need to fly slowly, and then when the Intrepid is far away, you will land on that planet.”
“Captain Li, Captain Chen, please be careful…”
“I know this for sure.”
“No, what I mean is, please be prepared to retreat at all times.” Ye Ming stared at the two, his expression became serious: “Don’t forget, you are on the battlefield. Humanity’s first interstellar war is about to officially start!”
“And you are the plenipotentiary representatives of mankind’s colonization of the Auriga galaxy.”
…
Intrepid has already set its automatic course and accelerated to the highest speed. Therefore, in the entire command cabin, everyone is no longer performing their duties as before, and is ready for battle.
So, the long-lost party started naturally.
Captain Guertu held a wine glass, clinked a glass with his deputy and drank it down.
The screen displays the star map of the entire Auriga galaxy, as well as the information of all the spacecraft in this galaxy.
On the star map, it is obvious that the human Auriga fleet is heading straight for another fleet at an extremely fast speed.
The Intrepid has already left the planet YBTL04, heading towards the established return star gate.
In the star chart, there is also a very slow small bright spot, which is slowly moving forward at the position of the fourth planet.
Seeing this scene, Captain Gurtu scoffed.
It seems that humans really want to go to the Enlightenment Base to take a look.
It’s a pity… Before they left, they had already closed the door of the hangar. Humans and enlighteners have nothing to do with each other, so how could they get in?
“I have to say, sometimes we still have to admire human beings.” Captain Guertu put down his wine glass with a smile on his lips.
“Well, it is really difficult for a civilization that has not been enlightened to get to where it is today.”
“No, I mean…”
At this moment, an image suddenly jumped out on the screen.
It belongs to Li Dongsheng.
“Attention alien fleet, you have entered the human colony galaxy, please indicate your purpose.”
