Chapter 2506 Strange Sea of ​​Stars

That night, Li Yao and his friends had a small farewell feast made up of various canned foods at the Blue Sky Market—not just for Li Yao, but for each other.

Due to changes in the frontline situation, the latest order was sent from the headquarters of the coalition forces of the four major elector families, requesting the "Loyalty and Nation Salvation Army" to move ahead to block an important channel of the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance.

Therefore, the fleets of Li Yao and Boss Bai will set off together tomorrow to head to their respective battlefields.

Although it was all kinds of canned food, they still had a great time eating with each other, and halfway through the dinner, the boxing champion also came-with a thermos bucket full of noodles with tomato poached eggs.

In the end, under his inhuman, ruthless, steel-like gaze, Li Yao and Boss Bai snatched the bucket of noodles and ate them up.

The boxing champion looked like he was dying of anger.

This small episode did not affect the farewell atmosphere. Everyone stayed up all night, talking about the upcoming battle and the earth-shaking changes that would take place in the center of the Star Sea in the near future.

Until the east of the man-made sky was infused with a bright red color, Li Yao finally enjoyed himself, took Li Jialing, boarded the ultra-small starship commonly known as the "shuttle machine", and slowly left the starport.

When they left, the "Arsonists United Fleet" dressed in the coat of "Loyalty and National Salvation Army" was also ready to go. Super starships that had been strengthened by Li Yao, Boss Bai, Boxing Champion, Xiao Ming, and Wenwen soared into the sky, gushing out. The colorful tail flames converged into a colorful torrent.

Right now, the name of this fleet is only known to a very small number of people in the Blue Sky Market, oh, maybe there are also a very small number of people in the Xingyao Federation at the border of the Star Sea.

But I believe that in the near future, it will rise extremely powerfully in the center of the star sea, burning that bright flame throughout the entire Pangu universe.

And Li Yao will also make a gorgeous appearance on another battlefield with another world-shocking identity!

"Good luck."

The shuttle was about to split into the sky, and Boss Bai's blessing came from the communication channel, "Li Yao, you are a person who lacks everything, except for a little bit of good luck occasionally. I hope this time, it will be smooth sailing."

"Of course."

Li Yao grinned, and responded, "We are the ones who want to rush out of the Pan Gu universe and stir up billions of stars. What is a small scene like an empire—what is it!"

...

Half a month later, in a barren star field not far from the "Seven Seas Market", the headquarters of the Wanjie Business Alliance, countless starship wreckages formed a mighty torrent of garbage, like a cosmic highway composed of gravel star belts .

This is the star sea channel visible to the naked eye - the shortest distance from one best jump point to the next best jump point.

Although theoretically speaking, the ultra-long-distance star sea jump can teleport a starship from any point in the star sea to another point.

But this kind of jump not only has extremely high precision requirements for the Xinghai jump unit carried by the starship, but also has extremely high requirements for the strength of the passenger's body and soul, and the consumption of fuel is also astronomical.

Sometimes, it is not even a matter of how much fuel is used, but a large amount of ultra-high-purity, extremely precious special mixed fuel must be injected into the star sea jump magic weapon to start the ultra-long-distance star sea jump across hundreds of worlds.

And such special fuels, as well as the raw materials for making special fuels - those extremely rare crystal essences and natural treasures, are often monopolized by nobles and the military, and only elite warships are eligible to use them.

For ordinary merchant ships and transport ships, they can't afford to consume such expensive fuel, and the weak bodies of passengers often can't adapt to the damage caused by the long-term decomposition into a four-dimensional state.

Therefore, they can only jump from one Great Thousand World to the adjacent Great Thousand World, and use this "leapfrog" method to slowly reach their destination.

And when launching a short-distance jump, in order to save fuel, you have to look for a place where the three-dimensional structure of the Great Thousand World is the most unstable, where it is easiest to tear wormholes or even have natural wormholes. That is the jump point marked on the star map.

From one jump point to the next jump point, the straight line may not be the shortest.

Using the gravity of planets and even stars is like being thrown out by a cosmic slingshot again and again, which can greatly increase the speed.

Between many jumping points, there are terrifying areas where star sea storms frequently occur and meteorite fragments ravage, including garbage wrecks brought about by human war activities, which may cause fatal blows to merchant ships.

In order to take advantage of the gravitational force of stars and planets and avoid these dangerous areas, the flight path between the jumping points becomes a series of intricate curves. Only an experienced old captain can walk along the flight path with complete precision. A perfect compromise between safety and fuel consumption.

The battle between the four major families and the Myriad Realms Business Alliance often revolves around the interception, opening, escort and ambush of the waterway.

In the past two or three months, thousands of brief but brutal conflicts broke out between the fleets of the two sides on various waterways. All the cargo turned into rubbish and scattered on the waterway, becoming a dim beacon—just like the wreckage floating on the waterway in front of you.

After three months of fierce fighting, almost 50% of the waterway around the Seven Seas Market was cut off.

However, in the remaining half of the waterway, the caravans have increased several times, showing abnormal prosperity.

No way, no matter how fierce the war is, life must continue. As the headquarters of the Wanjie Business Alliance, the "Seven Seas Starfield" where the Seven Seas Market is located was originally the most stable wormhole in the outer world of the empire, the most abundant jumping points, and the most well-connected business. And the logistics center, to some extent, has similar characteristics to the imperial capital "Extreme Heaven Realm, Tianjixing".

The goods from countless Great Thousand Worlds and resource planets must be transferred in the "Seven Seas Star Field" before they can be sent to Great Thousand Worlds that urgently need them.

These goods are either fertilizers that are urgently needed for farming, or the core filter units of water purification systems or air purification systems, or special medicines to kill certain plagues—in short, they are all indispensable in every world, resource planet, and star sea town. less stuff.

Without these goods, the entire town, the entire planet, and even the entire world would be in danger, so no matter how fierce the war was, people had to take risks and cross the war zone to go to the Seven Seas Market to do business.

At this moment, there is such a fleet composed of more than a dozen dilapidated semi-armed merchant ships, carefully driving on the wreckage-filled channel.

Many wreckages still have extremely high temperatures, and even some magic weapon units in the depths of the wreckage are still reacting violently, bursting out clusters of colorful light balls from time to time, staring at this small weapon like deformed skulls. fleet.

These wreckages are the product of a fierce battle not long ago.

This shows that this channel is very likely to be a dangerous front. The fleets of the four major families, the fleets of the Myriad Worlds Merchant Alliance, or the heinous star robbers... all kinds of wolves, tigers and leopards are dormant in the dark sea of ​​stars, ready to Waiting for the opportunity to come out and take a bite.

Even now, there are many deep eyes staring at this small caravan, just because they are too inconspicuous and look too shabby, they are too lazy to waste fuel and ammunition to plunder them.

This kind of cognition makes the caravan's navigation more trembling and cautious.

At the end of the caravan, there is a rusty, fat and stupid merchant ship that looks hundreds of years old, with a silly black bear spray-painted on the bow, and the name of the merchant ship--Little Bear.

This is not a long-distance voyage starship, it is only suitable for ferrying and connecting back and forth in the neighboring world.

In order to adapt to the "leapfrog voyage" of many star-sea jumps, the owner of the Little Bear rebuilt it with pain and money, and piled up a lot of patches on the shell, making it look more bloated and clumsy——and the previous ten Like several merchant ships.

Although it looks like a retreat, the dozen or so merchant ships have never met each other before. They come from different worlds and belong to some small merchants who are alone and lonely. They just met by chance at the last supply star port. Only then go hand in hand, to strengthen each other's courage.

Even though more than a dozen merchant ships gathered together, they would all die together if they were plundered by warships, but at least they could bring some psychological... illusory comfort.

Huo Dongling didn't like the strange sea of ​​stars outside at all, not at all.

Although her father is the owner and captain of the Little Bear, she grew up playing on the Little Bear, and often sailed with her father, so much so that she thought she was the real "son of the Star Sea".

But in the past, they were all cruising around their hometown, traveling to and from the calm sea, without too much danger, and every star was very familiar with each other. Every time they went to a supply port, there were old friends and brothers of Dad who greeted the wind, Give her all kinds of weird fruits and toys, and she will be able to go home in less than ten days and a half months - that is the voyage Huo Dongling is used to.

But this time was different, this time was so different.

Huo Dongling and the Little Bear had never sailed so far, crossed one after another strange star field, saw one after another twisted and deformed wreckage, and even heard harsh alarms several times, had to do everything they could to spend crazily Fleeing on fuel, the Little Bear had never been so vulnerable, and Daddy had never looked so gloomy.

Huo Dongling even heard her father talking in a panic while half asleep and half awake several times - this is her father who is as strong as a tower and is not afraid of the storm in the star sea!

The familiar sea of ​​stars in the past has become so strange, so gloomy, so cold and so dangerous, that Huo Dongling has an illusion in a trance-are they sailing in the sea of ​​stars, or have they unknowingly got into the blood of a giant beast? With a big mouth, is it about to be completely eroded by the boundless darkness?
