Chapter 269 A New Force?
The thrusters at the tail spewed out hundreds of meters of white tail flame, and its shining ion brilliance was like a comet piercing the starry sky.
In the bridge...
"Received a message from "Regent", this star system is S-01894."
The astropath in the purple robe suddenly spoke, breaking the silence on the bridge.
On the captain's chair, Ralph sat upright in a brown military uniform.
He looked at a technology priest not far away, and said, "Update the star map and record the coordinates of this star system."
After finishing the words, Ralph said again: "How is the data collection of the solar system going?"
Tech Priest: "The information has been sent..."
Ralph clicked on the button on the gauntlet.
On the other side of the gauntlet, a blue light shot out, turning into a holographic screen in front of Ralph.
On the screen is a star map, and under the scanning of the auspicious array, large celestial bodies have been captured.
The S-01894 star system has eleven planets, seventeen observable satellites, and the asteroid belt is located in the outer circle.
"Hey, is this a habitable planet?"
Suddenly, Ralph was attracted by a green and reddish planet.
But when he saw the information, a hint of disappointment flashed in Ralph's eyes.
That is not a habitable planet, but liquid methane exists on the surface of the planet.
Although it is only a prediction, it will not be too far from the truth.
According to the habit of the "Regent", the green planet is marked as the "Number 7" star.
Although it is not a livable planet, but...
After thinking about it, Ralph ordered: "First go to Star Seven..."
There are many colors on the surface of the planet, and there may be some precious special minerals.
Navigator: "Star No. 7 has been locked, subspace navigation time: three seconds, timed!"
Tech priest: "Geller's force field is activated, and the outer protective armor is closed..."
In the bridge, the sound of machinery running suddenly sounded.
The protective armor outside the window is slowly closed, from top to bottom, from bottom to top.
Tech Priest: "The subspace engine starts, countdown: 5, 4, 3..."
Out there, in the dark universe.
On the sailing ship HFB-1, the space in front of the bow suddenly distorted.
A red vortex quickly emerged.
The HFB-1 ship sailing at high speed crashed into it and disappeared without a trace.
Disappearing with it is the red swirl.
Seconds later, in the universe outside the gravity well of a green planet.
The space suddenly distorted, strangely turning into a huge red vortex.
The next moment, a giant ship rushed out of the vortex.
The engine nozzle at its tail sprayed out more dazzling white tail flames, pushing the giant ship towards the No. [-] star.
"Colonel Ralph, a high-energy heat source has been detected on the surface of star 7. It is a man-made construction project, and the optical equipment has captured the target."
Man-made construction projects?
The screen in front of him flickered, and a vertical angle screen was reflected in Ralph's eyes.
In a swamp of green liquid methane, there is a mining base.
It's not very big, it's round, like a steamed stuffed bun, and it's green in color as a whole, blending well with the environment.
If you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.
There is also a large mobile machinery operating in the nearby swamp.
There is a long pipeline behind the large machinery, one end is connected to the machine, the other end is connected to the bun base,
There are a lot of them, eight of them.
There is also a transport ship docked next to the Baozi base.
Boxy, like two containers merged together, not big, about 150 meters long.
Seeing this, Ralph frowned.
Rebels?
Meanwhile, on the surface of the planet.
Alarm bells blared in the mining base.
Running figures can be seen in the large and small metal passages.
"Your Excellency, Commander of the Fleet, Shigemitsuke, an unknown spaceship has appeared in the outer space of Ma Xing Liu and is entering the orbit of the planet. Do you want to call the other party?"
In the main control room, Shigemitsuke stood in front of the holographic imaging platform with a very ugly face.
On the platform, there is a planet simulated by blue light.
And in the orbit of the planet, there is a simulated warship.
Shigemitsuke's expression changed when he saw the shape of the battleship.
That's the enemy...
A few years ago, in the S-01909 star system, the Xinjing Shogunate encountered enemies.
At that time, the Xinjing Shogunate tasted the taste of failure for the first time.
The unknown force has the Warhammer 40K technology template, so it is called Warhammer by the "Xinjing Shogunate".
Although the Warhammer forces won the war, they did not occupy the S-01909 star system.
After two years, Shigemitsuke did not expect the Warhammer forces to appear in the S-01894 star system.
Since the "Xinjing Shogunate" occupied this star system for a short period of time, no defense facilities were built at all.
The purpose of mining methane is only to make pigments, and it is not too important a resource.
Therefore, Liu Maxing does not have any defensive force.
There is only such a base with less than two hundred staff.
"Retreat, retreat immediately, notify everyone, board the ship and evacuate immediately, fast!"
If it is a force that does not conflict with the "Xinjing Shogunate", maybe we can talk about it.
But the other party is an enemy, so there is no possibility of talking.
At this time, in the outer space of No. 1 star, HFB-7 ship slowly entered the orbit of No. [-] star.
A new force?
Looking at the base standing in the methane swamp on the holographic screen in front of him, Ralph frowned slightly.
I don't know how many years it has been dormant, but I didn't expect the empire to be divided.
In a small star field, many human forces have appeared one after another.
There is also the "Trade Mall", which is a product of an alien civilization that has actually established new rules in the Milky Way.
"Hmph, Little Fluorescent dares to compete with the sun and the moon, in the name of the Emperor..."
With a cold snort, Ralph waved his hand and said loudly: "Destroy the rebels, target: ground base, light spear orbital strike!"
In the orbit of the planet, the HFB-1 ship slowly approached the low-earth orbit, as close to the ground as possible.
As a "Firestorm-class" frigate, the only orbital strike firepower of the HFB-1 ship is the main gun of the lance located below the bow.
Its 30-meter caliber is powerful enough, and it is most suitable for orbital strikes.
Looking into the sky from the surface of the planet, a huge ship can be seen appearing in the sky.
At this time, on the surface of the planet...
"A high-energy reaction was detected, it is an energy weapon, and an orbital strike is coming..."
Hastily entered the bridge of the Columbus transport ship, and as soon as he entered, Shigemitsuke heard a bad news.
The voice was a little panicked, and the faces of the crew on the bridge were only tense.
"All boarding, Shigemitsuke Fleet Commander, you can set sail..."
"Then what are you waiting for, quickly, evacuate this airspace immediately, quickly!"
The fear of "death" made Shigemitsuke almost roar out in a roaring tone.
Outside, there was only a rumbling engine roar, and the air seemed to be shaking.
The lift engine on the abdomen of the Columbus transport ship sprayed out a blue tail flame that was tens of meters long.
The high-temperature ion stream hit the ground, vaporizing a large cloud of liquid methane, and billowing white mist rose up.
In the billowing white mist, the 200-meter-long transport ship slowly lifted into the sky.
Just tens of meters away from the ground, the nozzle of the main engine at the rear spewed out dazzling blue tail flames.
Under the powerful thrust, the transport ship flew towards the distant sky while rising in height.
Faster and faster, higher and higher...
