Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

"Retreat, retreat immediately, notify everyone, board the ship and evacuate immediately, quickly!"

If it is a force that does not conflict with the "Xinjing Shogunate", maybe we can talk about it.

But if the other party is an enemy, then there is no possibility of negotiation.

At this time, in the outer space of Star 7, the HFB-1 ship slowly entered the orbit of Star 7.

A new force?

Looking at the base standing in the methane swamp on the holographic screen in front of him, Ralph frowned slightly.

I don’t know how many years it has been dormant, but I didn’t expect that the empire had been divided.

Many human forces appeared one after another in this small star field.

There is also the "Trading Mall", which is the product of an unknown alien civilization and has actually established new rules in the galaxy.

"Hmph, this little fluorescent girl dares to compete with the sun and the moon, in the name of the emperor..."

With a cold snort, Ralph raised his hand and said loudly: "Destroy the rebels, target: ground base, light spear orbital strike!"

In the orbit of the planet, the HFB-1 ship slowly approaches low-Earth orbit, getting as close to the ground as possible.

As a "Firestorm-class" escort ship, the only orbital strike firepower of the HFB-1 ship is the lance main gun located under the bow.

Its thirty-meter caliber is powerful enough and is most suitable for orbital strikes.

Looking towards the sky from the surface of the planet, a giant ship can be seen appearing in the sky.

At this time, on the surface of the planet...

"High-energy reaction detected, it's an energy weapon, orbital strike is coming..."

He hurriedly entered the bridge of the Columbus transport ship. As soon as he entered, Shigemitsu heard bad news.

There was some panic in the voice, and the faces of the crew members on the bridge were only nervous.

"Everyone is on board, Fleet Commander Shigemitsu, it's time to set sail..."

"Then what are you waiting for? Quick, evacuate this airspace immediately, quick!"

The fear of "death" made Shigemitsu almost roar in a roaring tone.

Outside, there was only a rumble of engines, and the air seemed to be vibrating.

The lift engine on the belly of the Columbus transport spewed out blue tail flames that were tens of meters long.

The high-temperature ion flow hit the ground, vaporizing a large area of ​​liquid methane, and billowing white mist rose.

In the billowing white mist, the two-hundred-meter-long transport ship slowly rose into the sky.

Just a few dozen meters above the ground, the main engine nozzle at the rear spurted out dazzling blue tail flames.

Under the powerful thrust, the transport ship rose in height and flew into the distant sky.

The speed is getting faster and higher...

Just a few kilometers away from the base, a dazzling white light flashed behind.

A huge white beam of light fell from the sky and struck the ground.

The target is clearly a mining base.

"boom……"

Under the hot high-energy ray beam, the base was instantly annihilated.

Although there is no dazzling explosion effect, any target hit by the light spear will be bombarded to pieces.

The light spear fires a sustainable beam.

The beam of light that bombarded the mining base was moving, and wherever it passed, the metal buildings instantly turned into molten iron.

It lasted for more than ten seconds before the beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth disappeared.

In the swamp, the base has turned into a metal ruin.

A huge, bottomless hole can be seen in the ruins.

On the other side, dozens of kilometers away in the sky, transport ships soared into the sky.

It escaped the planet's gravity at the fastest speed and rushed out of the atmosphere.

The moment it broke out of the planet's gravity well, a ball of blue light erupted from the transport ship's hull.

The transport ship turned into a streak of blue and disappeared into the depths of the starry sky.

"Colonel Relf, ​​a spaceship has escaped from the planet and entered super-light space..."

He ran pretty fast...

It was just a civilian ship, so Ralph didn't pay much attention to it.

Lean back slightly, Ralph said: "The log records, in the new empire era 0004-07-01, unknown rebels were discovered in the S-01894 star system, the mining base of unknown forces on Star 7 was destroyed, and a transport ship escaped. Unknown Where to go, the HFB-1 ship will stay in the S-01894 star system for two months, exploring for minerals, and testing the next reaction of unknown forces. If it encounters enemies, it will give priority to evacuate in preparation for future battles. If there is no reaction from the unknown forces, the two We will explore the surrounding star field in a few months, that’s it, that’s it!”

All Ralph had to say was that someone would record his words in the logbook.

"Lift the state of combat readiness and continue the exploration mission..."

…

S-01909 star system.

The starry sky is endless, dark, cold and dead.

An icy planet floats quietly in the dark universe.

In the orbit of the planet, a huge asteroid is visible.

It is huge in size, no less than fifty kilometers in diameter.

Metal buildings, large and small landing pads, and giant turrets can be seen on the surface.

There are even more than a dozen open-air harbors where large warships can dock.

Dark blue and white warships can be seen in the harbor.

The Salamis-class cruiser is about 300 meters long, and the Magellan-class battleship is about 500 meters long.

At a glance, there were no less than seven ships, filling two-thirds of the harbor.

Two years ago, this giant asteroid fortress didn't exist.

"Yamato" Orbital Asteroid Defense Fortress, this is its name.

Its main body is a huge asteroid.

It took the Xinjing shogunate half a year to transport it to the orbit of the S-01909-A star.

Then it was modified, hollowed out inside, installed with a power engine, and deployed with anti-ship weapons.

It took nearly two years to transform the asteroid into an orbiting asteroid defense fortress.

At this time, in the "Yamato" asteroid orbital fortress.

"It failed. With the technology we have now, we still can't transform Star A."

In a conference room, four people sat on their knees on futons, facing each other.

One person was wearing a dark blue kimono, kneeling and sitting on the main seat.

To the left sat a young man wearing a gray kimono.

On the right is a young man wearing a white military uniform.

The other person was wearing a long white robe.

Shogun of Xinjing: Shouzheng

Minister of Finance: Tomoya

Navy Fleet Commander: Shibao Ichiro.

Director of the Technical Section: Yuta Yokoyama.

This is their name and their identity.

Yokoyama Yuta's words caused a flash of disappointment in the eyes of the three of them.

Sure enough, it doesn't work...

S-01909-A is an icy planet.

If you can melt the ice, you can transform it.

With sufficient water resources, Star A can soon be transformed into a habitable planet.

They did a lot of experiments.

Place laser satellites in orbit and light energy heat source generators.

Some fusion heating reactors have even been experimentally built on the ground.

However, its effect is limited and it can only play a certain role in a small area.

It is almost impossible to transform the world.

Unless the orbit is filled with laser satellites, photothermal source generators, and the ground is covered with fusion heating reactors.

Tomoya pondered: "It seems that we still have to find a solution from the trading mall."
