Chapter 1552 Time Turns?
(Thanks for the readers’ comments. Bluestar Group is actually more similar to the ability of the WTO plus a little United Nations. Although the member states have strong military power, they can mobilize only a few peacekeeping troops. Therefore, there may be thousands of large Luo Jinxian, but the Blue Star Group can mobilize, but there are not many. Not to mention that a large number of big Luo Jinxian belong to the nature of 'in the wild'.)
In the command room of the small spaceship, there are empty cans all over the floor.
At this time, hearing the roar of the east lion from the captain's wife, the crew obediently piled the unopened cans on the table beside the woman. By the way, I glanced at the team leader: You say you should fight for it!
Madam looked at the mountain of cans in front of her, and continued to raise her brows upside down: "Cans?"
"Yes, yes, ma'am, we have given up gambling. Now if the gambling addiction occurs, we will gamble on soda cans, and we can also quit drinking by the way."
lady:……
After a while, Madam snorted coldly: "Sit down, let's analyze together, what should we do next!"
The crowd had had enough trouble, and gradually calmed down. Everyone sat back in their seats and started a heated discussion. Playing around is playing around, life still has to go on.
This is just a small mercenary regiment, with a total of no more than 15 warships, and the leader with the highest cultivation level is Hong Xiaoquan, the pure yang realm—this was two years ago. Now the one with the highest cultivation level is the leader's wife, Miao Fengling, who has reached the peak of Pure Yang.
As for why the head of the group is so afraid of his wife, it's a long story... so I won't talk about it.
It is said that in this world, there are not only the upper class with infinite brilliance, but more ordinary people who are struggling to survive at the bottom—in this rapidly developing and highly competitive interstellar environment, the Pure Yang Realm can only be regarded as a better ordinary person .
The Kuangtao Mercenary Group is one of the crowd.
More than 30 years ago, before the development of the Blue Star Group, the Kuangtao Mercenary Group was okay. Although there are only a few in the Pure Yang realm, they can still receive many missions by relying on the more precious warships in their hands.
At that time, the Kuangtao mercenary group did not accept long-distance missions, but small missions within a hundred and ten light-years. The danger is not great, and there are a few large mercenary groups (pirate groups) around, which are also more sensible - they will not kill chickens to get eggs. Just pay a little protection fee every ten years.
Even the Kuangtao Mercenary Group itself sometimes plays a cameo role as a pirate. Anyway, in that chaotic environment, no one should say anything; most of those who insisted on doing mercenary missions starved to death in the toilet.
And before the Blue Star Group, the only thing that could threaten battleships was the Void Realm; but the Void Realm was not that idle. Therefore, although the Kuangtao Mercenary Group is having a bit of a hard time, the overall situation is good, and everyone is still on an upward path. There is also a surplus every year that is used to purchase cultivation resources and so on.
However, with the development of Bluestar Group, the situation has gradually changed. The first and most obvious change is commercial trade.
With the improvement of communication, a large number of business groups united, and large-scale commercial and trade exchanges began. Small business groups and others have attached themselves to large business groups. Everyone no longer needs small characters like the Kuangtao Mercenary Group.
The Kuangtao mercenary group also tried to join the large mercenary group later, but left in a hurry after only one mission. In one mission, the Kuangtao Mercenary Group reduced from 23 spaceships to 15 spaceships.
When it comes to large mercenary regiments, they have no choice but to be cannon fodder, drilling into dangerous places.
The Kuangtao mercenary group also tried to unite with many small mercenary groups, but everyone found that those small mercenary groups were even worse and would hold back.
In desperation, the Kuangtao mercenary group started to transport. But here comes the problem again: using old warships for transportation, barely making ends meet!
Due to the drastic changes in the business environment, the old warships of the Kuangtao Mercenary Corps could no longer keep up with the times.
When other merchant ships can easily exceed the speed of 1,000 light-years per month, the warships of the Kuangtao Mercenary Group are still struggling at the speed of 487 light-years per month. However, the warship itself suffers a lot of wear and tear, and the transportation cost is high, making life more and more difficult.
What's more difficult is that as a large number of old battleships and old spaceships are eliminated, the maintenance problem becomes more and more difficult. There is no problem in a short period of time, but the maintenance cost has risen!
It's not that the Kuangtao Mercenary Group didn't think about selling old spaceships and replacing them with new ones. But the old spacecraft is worthless since I don’t know when! Everyone has said: maintenance costs are more expensive than warships, and there is basically no market for old spaceships.
Therefore, the executives of the Kuangtao Mercenary Group roughly calculated that by selling all the spaceships and taking out their savings, everyone would just be able to buy a medium-sized new merchant ship.
But what is a merchant ship good for! Moreover, after buying the spaceship, there are still various tariffs and various items that need to be purchased, and the calculation is still not enough.
Let's talk about loans, but unfortunately. Without any foundation, the Kuangtao mercenary group is not even qualified to enter the gate of the bank.
Fortunately, life is not without hope. Recently, the Blue Star Group has started to promote the legal system and started to implement strategies such as the abolition of tariffs, which made the Kuangtao mercenary group feel that maybe life will be better.
But Hong Xiaoquan, the head of the group, didn't realize it: if there were no tariffs, he might not be able to compete with those large business groups even more!
Hong Xiaoquan recently fell in love with Dayang Daily, the newspaper of Dayang Group. Although the information is delayed due to the vast starry sky and other reasons, "Ocean Daily" is divided into three sections: the local section, which is also instant news; the peripheral section, which is the surrounding news within 48 hours; and the peripheral section , is the news after 48 hours.
Because of the development of technology, "Ocean Daily" is not only a newspaper, but also the Internet. Even the current "Ocean Daily" has become the largest network information platform within the Bluestar Group.
The Kuangtao mercenary group also saw Da Luo Jinxian and Jinxian who escaped from the invasion fleet just announced by the Blue Star Group, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
Caring is of course caring, but it's useless. They are just a small mercenary group, and it is difficult for them to survive by themselves. And the hardships of life have basically made them lose their yearning for miracles.
15 semi-old spaceships are moving slowly in the starry sky. Now the spacecraft has a lot of aging equipment, and the forward speed of the spacecraft has dropped from 507 light-years per month at its peak to 487 light-years per month.
It is foreseeable that as the spacecraft equipment ages, the speed of the spacecraft will further decrease in the future.
The spaceship is still moving forward, and the short discussion of the mercenary group is over. For the time being, we still can't find a new direction for development. In the end, Miao Fengling, the head's wife, encouraged: "Everyone, don't be discouraged. The old man has a long-term ambition..."
"But it's only a thousand miles away. After a thousand miles, it should be buried. Well... it's only a thousand miles away!" Hong Xiaoquan shook his head and made a comment.
"Slap!" Miao Fengling slapped Hong Xiaoquan on the head, and someone fell down directly.
But the head of the group immediately stood up with a smirk, and was about to say something. But suddenly there was a burst of strong light, illuminating the command room of the spaceship.
The light was so intense, and then it continued continuously, and everyone even faintly felt a little scorching heat.
"Supernova explosion? Stellar explosion?" Hong Xiaoquan put away his smirk in an instant and looked serious. The head's wife, who was still domineering just now, moved half a step carefully, and stood in front of Hong Xiaoquan, blocking half of his figure.
"Women, go away." Hong Xiaoquan pulled Miao Fengling aside, squinted at the light of the explosion in front of him, and calmly commanded: "You may encounter a supernova explosion, immediately get out of time and space travel, observe The surrounding situation, check the surrounding starry sky after confirming safety. There may be some strange spiritual materials in supernova explosions.
Fang Dahai, check the star map near us to determine the situation of the nearest stars. "
The fleet immediately turned off the hyperspace travel technology and entered the normal sailing state.
As the navigator of the fleet, Fang Dahai immediately checked the star map, and gave the direction after a while: "We are now located 10 light-years southeast of the second star in the toilet constellation, 5 light-years below the fundamental plane of the astrolabe.
According to the new orientation of the Blue Star Group, if the second star of the toilet constellation is taken as the 0 point, then our current position is 'South 8, 6, -5'.
We are now about 81.2 billion kilometers away from the star in front of us.
Star maps show that this is a small red dwarf star.
But it's not right. According to the latest data from Dayang Group, this red dwarf star has a lifespan of at least five billion years. Moreover, this red dwarf is too small, even if its lifespan ends, it is impossible to explode a supernova, but it will cool down a little bit and die quietly. "
"More than 80 billion kilometers... The speed of light takes more than three days." Hong Xiaoquan's eyes sparkled with wisdom, "Immediately analyze the light, and take out the light capture and analyzer we recently bought from Dayang Group!"
This analyzer is a treasure, although it was bought from the second-hand market.
Since Dayang Group's research made clear the concept of the speed of light, a technique of "post-shooting and evidence collection" has emerged.
To put it simply, if I miss something important, then I can use the super-space travel technology to catch up with the light, go to the farther starry sky and wait to catch the light.
However, this thing is easy to say, but it is troublesome to operate in practice, and only those with strong light can be captured, and it is easy to be disturbed. At present, the best solution to this phenomenon is Dayang Group. The second is the Blue Star Group, which is said to have purchased the technology patent from Dayang Group. Then the rest is gone.
The analyzers were brought, and the fleet immediately began to adjust. The analyzer first analyzed that the event should have occurred 3 days and 12 hours ago; it took 3 days, 3 hours and 13 minutes for the light to travel from the star to the current position.
In this way, if you want to see the initial appearance of the incident, you need to chase the light into the outer space for more than 18 hours-including the time for the spacecraft to move. Furthermore, because the spaceship presents an included angle with the radial direction of the current stellar light range (spherical shape), it needs to fly farther.
After confirming that the surrounding area was safe, the fleet entered the state of hyperspace travel again. After 18 hours, it really just flew out of the coverage area of the light, and immediately turned on the analyzer.
Half an hour later, Hong Xiaoquan and others were dumbfounded.
But the screen after analysis shows: a faint golden light flew from the bottom of the astrolabe, and the golden light almost hit the star directly at 0.96 times the speed of light. The golden light has a diameter of about 10 kilometers.
Hit by this, the star exploded. This is what everyone saw.
Hong Xiaoquan looked at the screen several times, blinked, swallowed, and stammered a little: "Golden light... 10 kilometers... three days ago... this can't be the five big Luo Jinxians and more than three thousand Jinxian, right?"
