Chapter 1724: Strange Black Hole
Zi Jiuxian really had doubts. The Federation, which could fight the Empire in the meat grinder battlefield, was actually so incompetent?
Or... the Empire's military strength was not worth mentioning, and the two sides were equally matched?
It was Duogan who answered her, "There are many groups that have no problem fighting a favorable battle, but will have a lot of problems when encountering an unfavorable battle."
Jia Shuiqing also nodded after hearing this, "We hit them hard enough, so there are problems inside, and this cannot be faked."
"Then there must be a huge trap ahead," the paranoid said calmly.
Qing Hu did not discuss with them. She left the cabin and raised the cloud crown to capture the broken mother nest.
In such an environment, her behavior... was not just a slap in the face, it was almost like actively killing herself!
But she really did it. Anyway, the Asura's nest was far away, and she had enough time to react.
Qing Hu's behavior must have angered Asura, but unfortunately, no nest rushed over to argue.
In view of the other party's reaction, her spiritual sense also came over, "It seems that there is really a danger waiting for us ahead."
The famously irritable Asura can actually endure to such an extent. Who would believe that there is no danger ahead?
"Are you scared?" Old Lady Jia looked at everyone.
"The boss said this, and I think it makes sense... If you are false, then be real, and if you are real, be false!"
"It is necessary to be cautious, but there is no need to scare yourself. Are we not well prepared?"
Qu Jianlei also nodded when he heard it, and then said in a deep voice, "Didn't you find that the opponent's troops are obviously seriously insufficient?"
"We just annihilated so many of them," the paranoid answered subconsciously, "and what they show may not be true."
Claire finally seized the opportunity, "The boss said that speed is of the essence... They don't have time to mobilize troops."
"No wonder the boss said to come directly," Xiangxue nodded with sudden realization.
Then she looked at the paranoid, "You have been collecting Asura nests for a while, and it has delayed you a bit!"
The two had worked together for many years in Yunwu Mountain and had a very harmonious relationship, so she was not very careful about what she said.
The paranoid didn't bother with her, but rolled his eyes, "The mother nest can also be used, the key is that it didn't delay for a long time."
After all, it is a big problem to mobilize troops in the vast space.
They had fought two consecutive battles before, and beat Asura miserably.
Asura still has troops in the front and is fighting with the Federation. At this time, it is impossible to withdraw troops.
Otherwise, it will take a lot of time and cost to go back and fight back.
The key is that they don't know that the group of people fighting against them are not from the Federation.
In their view, the human race went deep into the Link Nebula to fight, saying that they were going to the Asura world, but their real intentions were questionable.
What if the enemy wants to transfer their troops back from the front battlefield?
Of course, there is also a possibility...the enemy wants both.
Not only did they want to cause trouble in the Asura world, they also wanted to revitalize the big chess game of the federal battlefield.
This possibility is really not low,
so Asura chose to mobilize a group of troops from their own world.
Who would have thought that they would be buried again not long after they came here.
Now their troops are really few, and it is indeed a problem to continue to withdraw them...
Qing Hu and others joined forces and spent half a day to collect the broken mother nest into the cloud crown.
So far, the team has three mother nests, but it is not easy to nurture this broken one.
In the next day or so, there were very few Asura nests around the fleet.
Those who dared to observe them within the visual range were all some forward stations or grand nests, and there were not even sub nests.
But everyone can imagine that there must be more nests outside the visual range, staring at them.
Even in the division-level ship, you can feel a murderous atmosphere of impending storms.
Suddenly, chaotic energy fluctuations appeared in front.
In the Link Nebula, it is not uncommon for energy chaos to occur, but this time the fluctuation has a slight space energy.
"It seems that we are about to reach the place," Jia Shuiqing muttered in a low voice.
She is definitely a calm person in the team, but who can face the unknown danger calmly?
The warship moved forward for a while, and a large piece of light white fog appeared in front of it, which was caused by tiny particles.
At this point, the visibility dropped a little. The division-level ship tried to improve its sensitivity, but it could only observe 20 to 30 million kilometers.
And at such a distance, it is impossible to observe things that are too small.
The warship combination simply put away the regiment-level ship and released various detection equipment while moving forward.
After moving forward for another half a day, the thrown observer sent a message that there was indeed a nest tracking behind them.
However, this time, they did not release Xingzai again because the environment here is a bit weird.
The fluctuation of space energy may affect the effect of the flawed Xingzai's fiery and violent fire, and even trigger some abnormal reactions.
You know, not too far away, there should be a gap in the space barrier.
Any violent space fluctuations here may cause unknown consequences.
Qu Jianlei wanted to make a divination, but after thinking it over again and again, he finally restrained himself.
He didn't know what back-up plan Asura had prepared, and he couldn't make divinations frequently, so it was necessary to keep some means appropriately.
The battleship moved forward in the white mist for another day, and regular and stable spatial fluctuations came from the front.
A strange black hole was also discovered on the division ship's observation instruments without any signal feedback.
"It should be there," Qu Jianlei was a little excited, "Be ready to open the entrance to the nest at any time."
Of course, they didn't release the brood to show off their power or deliberately humiliate anyone.
At a critical moment, the battleship assembly can enter the mother nest and use the defense of the mother nest to withstand a wave of attacks.
Of course, this is only one of the back-up tools to deal with. It is a layer of insurance and definitely not a trump card.
They are still in the most elementary stages of mastering and using the brood.
I don’t know if those directional short-distance transmission functions can be turned on in the future.
However, Taoist Jiao and Yi He were not very optimistic because they had no similar memories in their minds.
They tend to believe that the more functions of the Brood require Asura's racial talent to be activated.
Anyway, these are things for later. What they have to do now is to be more vigilant and move towards the black hole with all their strength.
The black hole looked not far away, but after driving for a day and night, it didn't seem to get much closer at all.
And many of the monitors they released have lost contact.
Some of them may have been affected by the harsh environment, and some disappeared just after they were released. They were obviously destroyed by Asura.
At the same time, they also observed more Asura lairs.
But the good thing is that all they found were small nests and no mother nest, indicating that the opponent's forces were really insufficient.
There are unknown dangers ahead, and there are chasing soldiers behind. The pressure brought on people is really not ordinary.
However, the battleship became more active, and obvious excitement could be seen on many people's faces.
To say that fear comes from the unknown is not necessarily true. Now that they are close to the truth, who can not look forward to it?
As for the possible dangers? Things have developed to this point, there is no point in being afraid, just face it bravely!
The battleship moved forward for another day and a half, and finally could see that the black hole had become slightly larger.
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Look at the mountains and run to death, I'm honest!"
Two days later, the black hole became a little bigger, but the battleship also sounded an alarm, "Unidentified objects appear ahead!"
After a long time, everyone finally understood what kind of unknown object it was - another Asura Brood!
This mother nest is relatively large, with a diameter of almost three thousand kilometers, and it is blocking the front of the black hole.
"What do you mean?" The paranoid muttered softly, "Why, you still want to block the road... Do you really think you are out of body?"
Just as the battleship assembly approached the mother nest, Asura's nests of different sizes also appeared faintly in the surrounding space.
"Is the ultimate BOSS guarding the gate?" Qu Jianlei whispered softly, and then asked.
"Elder Jiao, Senior Yi He, could this be the mother's nest that left the body?"
Taoist priest Jiao did not speak, but Yi He replied, "Asura's space bubbles are rarely heard of out-of-body-level ones."
"But it should be normal for an out-of-body-level Asura to appear in the Nascent Soul Mother's Nest."
The people in the digital phantom have already increased their vigilance, but the battleship assembly is still flying forward firmly with the mother nest.
When they got close to the mother nest, which was about two million kilometers away, the mother nest in front of them was still motionless.
Obviously, this guy is determined to be a roadblock.
"Oh, it's boring," the paranoid snorted, "Now we have entered the attack zone."
The attack range of division-level ships can indeed reach this far, but it is difficult to say how effective this ultra-long-range attack will be.
"Wait and see," Qu Jianlei said calmly, "see if it really won't let us get close."
The battleship continued to fly forward. Although the people in the cabin looked calm, there was no doubt that their nerves were tense.
As they were moving forward, Asura lairs appeared from all directions and surrounded them.
There are many lairs appearing, and even more are looming, and they look menacing, full of malice filling the space.
But what's funny is that there is no brood.
That's right, except for the one blocking the road, there is no mother nest anymore. The densely packed nests all over space are all tiny ones.
Although everyone was very tense, when they realized this, they were a little bit dumbfounded, "Are you so poor?"
"There are at least three broods left," Duogan warned. "It's not that there are no broods, they're just hidden."
"That's still not enough," the paranoid said disapprovingly. "If there is really no shortage, at least one or two should be unveiled, right?"
"Since we're going to fight, don't we need to consider military morale?"
