Chapter 1862 The Upheaval Begins
Long and narrow black cracks appeared, like torn wounds, sporadically appearing at different coordinate points in the chaotic star field of the Star Alliance, gravel belts in the wild starry sky, artificially developed and constructed waterways, and pirates gathered Controlled interstellar transition points, mine stars secretly controlled by various countries, and deserted planets with few people, appear randomly without any rules or warnings.

Some of these space cracks, large and small, have already been discovered by humans, and some have not been noticed because they appeared in inaccessible wilderness areas.
With the appearance of these space cracks, the space energy fluctuations around the area where they are located are sharply strengthened, the magnetic field changes are also extremely violent, space distortion is more normal, and space turbulence even appears in many places.
The space crack discovered by the Witkey Pirates was one of them. The pirates made an extremely stupid decision instead of evacuating quickly when they discovered the space crack.
"The nearby energy fluctuates violently, and the positioning system cannot function normally." The crew of the driving group expressed concern about the occurrence of abnormal failures.
"It is self-checking and troubleshooting, but it has not been found yet."
"Captain, this is probably a space crack." The navigator exclaimed after repeated observations.
"What is the space crack?" A crew member asked without knowing why.
The captain didn't know how to answer this question for a while, but fortunately the navigator made a rescue.
The navigator racked his brains and came up with the idea that "occasionally space cracks will appear near certain undeveloped interstellar transition points due to periodic space fluctuations."
"Then does it mean that we have discovered a wild interstellar transition point?" Suddenly someone asked excitedly.
"Maybe there really is an interstellar transition point near here!" The navigator became excited because of the hypothesis put forward by the crew. "It's theoretically possible."
The only person in this pirate group that was lucky enough to get a spaceship to put together because of the war was the navigator, and the only person who has received professional star navigation education and training. Without basic education, all the knowledge these people have about space travel comes from the Star Network, past sailing experience and hearsay.
The navigator's words made everyone excited, and the discovery of the interstellar transition point meant huge benefits.
Even if just reporting a coordinate can allow them to exchange for a bounty that they can eat and drink for a lifetime, if they can take it for themselves, it is not impossible for the pirate group to grow and become the overlord from now on.
Just thinking about it makes one's blood boil with excitement.
"Long nose, I don't read much, so don't lie to us!"
"Who lied to you, that's what it says in the book." The long-nosed navigator retorted unhappily to the crew's question.
Another crew member also echoed, "That's right, that's right, I remember seeing it in a movie, the protagonist found an interstellar transition point because of a space rift and then started a reselling business, established a business empire and became a trade overlord." ..."
In this way, all the pirates on the ship were excited.
Just now, he was worried because of the discovery of space cracks, but now it has turned into a state of elation that he is about to make a fortune.
The spaceship is approaching the space crack, trying to release the detection plane to detect the surrounding environment, and the high emotional stimulation motivates them to keep approaching.
The danger brought by the space cracks in the chaotic belt was completely ignored. What they didn't expect was that the space cracks would expand suddenly when the spacecraft approached, the space fluctuations would become more distorted, and small space storms would appear without warning.
The space storm instantly swallowed the spaceship, and the spaceship that was swallowed into the space turbulence disappeared from its original place, and the chaotic belt returned to calm. Except for the deep black cracks that still existed, everything was the same as usual.
Such a scene doesn't just appear in one place, a small space storm is almost accompanied by a space crack.
There are quite a few spaceships torn apart and swallowed by space storms due to curiosity, daring, or simply bad luck.
After receiving the relevant information, the Star Alliance Parliament and Guild dispatched investigation teams to the area where the known cracks appeared.
However, these investigation teams have not yet arrived at the designated location, but the number of space cracks is increasing sharply, and the news of space energy distortion in various places is even more uninterrupted.
These messages were initially unknown to most people in the Covenant.
Most citizens of the Star Alliance repeat their daily life as usual, log in to the Star Network, check the latest war news between the Star Alliance and the Zerg or the Weilan Empire, and then work and study, except for falling Citizens in most parts of the Star Alliance that has become a war zone still only come from various official news released by governments of various countries.
The Zerg came, and the Zerg was repulsed by the coalition forces. How many soldiers died heroically, and how many battles were won.
In the general direction, all the countries of the Star Alliance are aware that they should try their best to deliver good news and stabilize people's hearts.
All in all, it is, "The battle is fierce, the crisis is in sight, but the overall situation is still under control, the victory belongs to the Covenant, peace cannot be broken, please believe that unity is strength Zerg will always be beaten away, history repeats It proves it."
It is also because of this that the news of the appearance of space cracks did not attract attention at the first time. The news of space storms in various parts of the Star Alliance was quickly submerged in the torrent of information on the Star Network. Forget it.
Even if there are very few people who are well-informed and have a keen sense of smell, even if they feel something is wrong in their hearts, it is difficult to realize from these small sudden changes that this may be enough to change the entire battle situation and bring about a huge crisis for the Covenant. .
As time went by, when the number of space cracks continued to increase, the number of space storms continued to increase, and the abnormal changes in the entire value finally attracted the attention of the Star Alliance Council, there was actually not much time left for the Star Alliance to respond.
From the discovery of the first space crack to the raging of small space storms, until finally realizing the crisis, the whole process continued to ferment within dozens of days.
Every area known to have space cracks and space storms has the nearest army monitoring and has pulled up a cordon. Even in the chaotic star field, the major forces have reached an agreement in the face of crisis.
The chaotic star field is known to be the area where the most space cracks are found, and most of the remaining space cracks are distributed in star areas that are relatively close to the chaotic star field.
These large-scale and frequent space cracks in a short period of time made the already tense situation of the Star Alliance even worse.
A warning circle of a space crack in the chaotic star field.
Four space cracks appeared within three light-years around an undeveloped planet, which is the region with the largest number of space cracks in a known small area.
The coalition forces of the Star Alliance Congress and the Explorers' Guild have all dispatched fleets, and the forces near the chaotic star field have also dispatched fleets.
Dozens of ships are patrolling and detecting in this area.
"It's been five days. Except for a small space storm every now and then, there doesn't seem to be any abnormality. Are we going to wait like this?"
The garrison fleet has a daily morning meeting, and the patience of the local fleet in the chaotic star field is disappearing. Compared with the regular troops, these desperadoes are much less disciplined and act bolder.
"It's best not to act rashly until the detection team has determined why these space cracks are generated and whether they are related to the Zerg."
"When will your space 'masters' get results?"
What the master said is extremely ironic.
The Star Alliance sent an expert team composed of astronomers, physicists, and space experts to investigate and study the appearance of space cracks, but so far there is no scientific theory that can explain the reason for the sudden appearance of these space cracks.
"Maybe it's the Zerg's new plan?"
"I agree that it's possible that these cracks are the product of failure to create wormholes."
"No, it's impossible. This is not consistent with previous research results on wormholes..." An expert was interrupted immediately.
"Don't be a joke, when did we figure out the principle of wormhole generation? If the research really makes progress, we won't let these aggressive wars repeat again and again."
If it weren't for the special agreement during the special period, the representatives of the parliament would unceremoniously dispatch the knights of the Knights' Palace to make these wanted criminals in the chaotic star field pay the price for their rude words immediately.
There are constant frictions between the large and small fleets of different forces, and there will always be quarrels in the daily regular meetings, but the actual progress is very little.
When everyone thought that today would be no exception, the reconnaissance plane inside the cordon suddenly sent out an alarm signal.
"what happened?"
"The energy value is soaring."
"Space energy fluctuations are intensifying."
The data displayed on the light screen kept jumping, and it took less than two minutes from the original green value to yellow to orange.
The fleet quickly retreated, and the unmanned detectors became the main force of monitoring.
"Could it be that there will be a large-scale space storm?"
"Perhaps, this possibility cannot be ruled out."
Such an ambiguous answer does not reassure the fighters of the various fleets, but there seems to be nothing else to do except wait and continue to wait and see.
What surprised them was that what appeared this time was not just a space storm.
It only took a dozen or so seconds from the sound of the alarm to the start of the mutation, leaving no time for the investigation team to react at all.
They saw the wonders of space that they had never seen in their lives, and it was shocking and terrifying at the same time.
"The stars are above, what is that?" Such exclamations appeared successively in various parts of the Star Alliance.
At the same time, Xingwang immediately carried out a live tracking report, and many citizens uploaded the pictures they recorded when they witnessed the spectacle.
Regardless of whether the planet is in daytime or night, the gray-white halo that cuts through the sky is equally dazzling and dazzling.
And along with the expansion of this aperture, many planets close to the chaotic star field experienced natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions at the same time. It is hard to say that all of these are coincidences.
"A large area of uncertain space mutations appeared near the public star field, and giant halos were observed over multiple planets...Natural disasters continue, is it a coincidence or a new round of attacks by the Zerg..."
"Anomalous halos appear in the sky over many planets, and it is temporarily impossible to determine whether it is related to the Zerg..."
"Is it a natural wonder, an astronomical scene, or an unknown crisis..."
"The Covenant Council issued a security alert...."
All kinds of reports emerge in endlessly, because the scope of the anomaly is extremely wide, even if the parliament and the governments of various countries deliberately control it, it is impossible to cover the eyes of all witnesses, cover their ears, and cover their mouths.
Soon they realized that there was no point even if they tried, the mutation happened too fast, and everything in the Covenant changed drastically overnight.
If they had thought that the war of aggression that the Zerg would come back every hundreds of years was the biggest shadow lingering over the Covenant, then at this moment they really realized that that shadow was nothing compared to the current crisis.
The moment the annular aperture appeared, the cracks in space also expanded, and huge holes were torn into the sky.
The space warp makes the space environment around the rift extremely complicated.
Dozens of days of investigations without any results have already made people feel overwhelmed, and the drastic changes overnight caught the management of the Star Alliance by surprise.
At the beginning, it was just a gray circle of light, followed by a deep black, and the whole sky seemed to be torn apart.
Such changes are more obvious in the chaotic star field.
All warships and spaceships, including the positioning systems of various planetary bases, have experienced varying degrees of failure. The values of the locator rotate wildly, and the coordinates of the spaceship are still jumping wildly even if the spaceship is still in place.
Still unable to recover from all these upheavals, the space reconnaissance stations in multiple areas of the chaotic star field uploaded incredible real-time reconnaissance feedback.
"What's this?"
"This is impossible, are you sure it's not a data failure?"
…
Black, endless black, Mo Ye couldn't see anything at this time, and his eyes were plunged into complete darkness, as if time had stopped.
The domain expanded to the limit, the core of mental power was spinning crazily, and the operation of the domain was almost out of his control, almost draining the last trace of mental power.
One picture after another flashed through Mo Ye's mind in a daze.
She, Sean, and Cole are controlling the platform.
In the center of the star-gray black nebula cluster, the console of the worm space barrier, all the star keys are placed in the light cluster and the streamers flash.
After the star key fragments were closed, they were completely out of Mo Ye's control, and a strong traction made these star keys return automatically.
The star key rotates and overflows with traces of light spots to form light and shadows, and these light and shadows gather together to form a complete star map in the sky above the console.
A scaled-down holographic star map hovers over the console. This star map is a switch, and a space sage is required to activate the switch.
Sean claimed that with the appearance of Cole, the role of Mo Ye is not absolute, and no one can prevent the opening of the space channel.
