Chapter 1267 The Fish that Slipped Through the Net (Second Update, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)

Now, in the absence of wormholes, theoretically, if there is no means of transportation that can jump through space, it will take at least fifteen years to get from the star field on the Southern Cross to the star field on the Shaofu Star.

And fifteen years is also assuming that the Zerg has means of transportation that can reach the speed of light.

But in fact, the Zerg does not have such high-speed transportation at all.

And Xia Chujian knew that the large wormholes between the Southern Cross Principality, the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom, the Simaneli Federation and the Beichen Empire were destroyed by Huo Yushen and others as soon as they learned that these countries had fallen.

So how did those Zerg spacecraft from the Southern Cross fly to the star field near Shaofu Star in such a short time?

This was the question that Xia Chujian had when he learned that the asteroid in the star field near Shaofu Star was attacked by the Zerg.

She asked Qilu: "Qilu, what do you think are the channels through which those Zerg spaceships flew from the Southern Cross?"

"The distance from Shaofu Star to the Southern Cross is fifteen light years."

"Without a large wormhole, how could they raid the Shaofu Star asteroid belt from the Southern Cross in such a short time?"

Qilu said: "Is there any other channel? Didn't Huo Shuai go to the Southern Cross from Beichen Star?"

"If there is no shortcut, he is probably still on the way?"

The distance of fifteen light years is the distance that it takes fifteen years to travel at the speed of light. Although it is a unit of length, it can also represent time.

To say that the Southern Cross is fifteen light years away from Shaofu Star, it can also be said that the Southern Cross seen in the star field of Shaofu Star is actually what it looked like fifteen years ago...

But Xia Chujian knew that those Zerg spaceships and Zerg soldiers did not travel on the road for fifteen years at all.

Besides, the Zerg army came from another world only in the past six months.

How can it be as long as fifteen years!

Moreover, no matter which country's spaceships and aircrafts are from, they can't reach the speed of light!

So, in the final analysis, how did they get here? !

Xia Chujian thought: "Could there be wormholes here that we don't know about?"

After thinking about it, there is only one possibility, that is, these Zerg spaceships and aircrafts did not fly here at their own speed.

They should have taken a shortcut.

In space, the only shortcut between two planets separated by light years is a wormhole.

But the large wormhole between the Beichen Empire and the Southern Cross Principality has been destroyed!

Could there be any fish that slipped through the net?

Xia Chujian discussed this possibility with Qilu.

Qilu said: "There should be no wormholes that slip through the net."

"If there are, wouldn't it be better for the Zerg army to attack directly through these 'wormholes that slip through the net'?"

"Why do we have to send small groups of Zerg soldiers and spacecraft to test again and again?"

Xia Chujian nodded: "That makes sense, so how did they get here?"

Qilu said: "We can only go and see for ourselves."

Xia Chujian said: "Have you found the way to the south?"

Qilu said: "The routes of the Zerg interstellar spacecrafts that came here a few times before seemed to be fixed. I just worked backwards."

Xia Chujian said: "Okay, let's follow the route they came from and take a look."

Qilu displayed the route on the virtual display in front of Xia Chujian.

"Master, look, this is the straight-line distance between Shaofu Star and Southern Cross Star."

The star map on the virtual display screen, of course, has reduced the distance by billions of times, just to give a rough idea.

Xia Chujian saw two shining planets on the star map, one in the south and one in the north, which were Southern Cross Star and Shaofu Star.

The starry sky of the Southern Cross does look like a cross.

And the starlight of Shaofu Star is bright with a shadow.

There is a virtual line connecting the two planets.

Qilu said: "The route we are going to take is near this virtual line."

"It doesn't overlap."

Xia Chujian nodded: "I know, it's definitely not a straight-line distance."

After the route was determined, the next journey was boring and tedious.

Xia Chujian couldn't stand it anymore, so he directly increased the speed of the Xuannv Qingyao Titanium Mecha.

Six hours later, Qilu's voice suddenly sounded.

"Master! There seems to be movement ahead!"

Xia Chujian immediately became alert.

She immediately switched the mecha form and returned to the human form, which would be more convenient when fighting.

Before, she switched the mecha to a micro-aircraft appearance that could only accommodate one person, suitable for sailing in space.

Of course, it's different now.

Xia Chujian asked nervously: "Where is it? Where is it? Is there another Zerg spacecraft?!"

Xia Chujian was so excited that he almost rubbed his hands.

Qilu said: "... I don't know, it's too far away, and I can't tell where the spaceship is for now."

Xia Chujian said: "This direction is very close to the Southern Cross Star Region."

"And on the Southern Cross Star side, besides the Zerg, who else can send out interstellar spaceships?"

"Can't the defenders on the Southern Cross Star side only fight guerrilla warfare with the Zerg army on the planet?"

In Xia Chujian's opinion, the only ones who can fly on this route at this time are himself and the Zerg army...

Qi Lu's childish voice was a little hesitant, but he still said: "Master, Qi Lu has checked several times, and the electromagnetic frequency of the spacecraft over there seems to be a spacecraft from the Beichen Empire."

"It's not a spacecraft from the Ximaneli Federation, nor a spacecraft from the Southern Cross, nor a spacecraft from the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom."

Xia Chujian frowned: "You mean, there is an interstellar spacecraft moving ahead..."

"But according to the electromagnetic frequency you detected, that spacecraft does not belong to the former Ximaneli Federation, nor to the former Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom, nor to the former Southern Cross Principality? It belongs to...our Beichen Empire?"

"No way...Could it be that the Beichen Empire is secretly preparing for a counterattack?"

"But our Fifth Interstellar Fleet is the army stationed on the front line, why haven't we received any news?"

Xia Chujian said a lot of things in one breath, and Qi Lu only said after listening to her: "Master, why don't you go and see it yourself?"

Xia Chujian had to hide his body and quickly flew to the place where the interstellar spacecraft was moving ahead.

Under Xia Chujian's full-speed flight, she finally arrived at a place half an hour later.

As soon as she approached, Qilu said: "There is a wormhole here!"

The gravitational waves spread by wormholes in the universe are of course completely different from those of other stars, and are very easy to identify.

Of course, this identification needs to be within a certain range.

If it is far away, it cannot be identified.

In the universe, the space is vast and far away, and it is impossible to locate a wormhole that is unknown.

Unless there are clear coordinates, or, by accident, you come to the star field near the wormhole.

At this time, Xia Chujian, by accident, can also be said to be reasonable, followed the route of the previous Zerg interstellar spacecraft and came to the vicinity of this wormhole.

Xia Chujian hid his figure and quickly approached the interstellar spacecraft in front.

It was indeed an interstellar spacecraft from the Beichen Empire.

Xia Chujian could also see the logo on it, as if it was the interstellar spacecraft of their Fifth Interstellar Fleet!

She became excited all of a sudden.

Could it be that the top leaders of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet had actually been preparing for an active attack? !

When she got closer, she found that the interstellar spaceship was preparing to enter the wormhole...

Xia Chujian was curious: "Qilu, where do you think this wormhole leads to?"

Qilu said: "I don't know, master, do you want to get close to the interstellar spaceship and see where it is going?"

Xia Chujian immediately said: "Of course I will go!"

She quickly flew to the top of the interstellar spaceship and used her mechanical fingers to touch the network optical fiber on the top of the spaceship.

Qilu quickly turned around the interior of the interstellar spaceship along the optical fiber.

Not long after, Qilu's childish voice sounded in Xia Chujian's fully enclosed helmet, with a little excitement.

"Master! This starship was sent by the Fifth Star Fleet to the Southern Cross to deliver supplies to the resistance forces there!"

"The spaceship is loaded with a million sets of conventional mechas! Billions of conventional weapons and bullets, as well as various conventional weapons and space attack weapons!"

"Also, 60 billion low-level nutrient solutions, 10 billion intermediate nutrient solutions, and 1 billion high-level nutrient solutions!"

"The electronic records in the spaceship say that this is enough supplies to support the Southern Cross for half a year!"

Xia Chujian frowned and said, "How many people are there in the Southern Cross?"

"At least 1 billion, right?"

"This amount of nutrient solution is enough for 1 billion people to eat Half a year? "

Qi Lu said: "If the local population can still grow their own food, and then with these nutrient solutions, they can still support half a year."

Xia Chujian nodded: "That's right, those one billion people will not be completely unproductive and just wait for relief."

She came back to her senses at this time, and suddenly realized: "I thought so! Shaofu Star, the nearest star to the Southern Cross, is also fifteen light years away. "

"How did we support them before? !"

"It turned out to be through this wormhole!"

"This interstellar spacecraft must have passed through this wormhole to the star field near the Southern Cross!"

This can greatly save time.

But she was puzzled again: "...Aren't all the large wormholes between the Beichen Empire and the Southern Cross Principality destroyed?"

Qi Lu said: "Master, this is no longer the star field of the Beichen Empire, this is the star field of the Southern Cross Principality."

"So, theoretically, this wormhole is considered an internal wormhole of the Southern Cross Principality."

"It's just very close to the star field of the Beichen Empire."

Xia Chujian suddenly realized: "I understand! So that's it!"

"This wormhole is an internal wormhole of the Southern Cross Principality, but we use it to send supplies to the garrison on the Southern Cross."

"The Zerg must also know about this wormhole, and they are secretly using it!"

"They use this wormhole to suddenly appear in the star field near Shaofu Star!"

This is the second update. There will be new updates after 5:00 p.m.!
