Voyage of the Stars

I will look up to my wife forever. Either you can take it into their arms and realize it within a room; or you can let it go outside your body because of the entrustment you have placed in it. Although there are many different interests, calmness and restlessness are different, when you are happy with what you encounter, you are temporarily satisfied with yourself, you are happy and self-sufficient, and you don't know that old age is coming.

The battle between the first human fleet and the Red Flame Civilization is coming to an end. When the second fleet came to join together, the opponent's more than 10 million warships had been beaten by the human first fleet in long-range shooting to only more than 2 million. Although they were still holding on, there was no suspense about their destruction.

However, because neither side wanted a close combat to occur, this rare long-range shooting battle lasted for seven months, much longer than previously expected. During the battle between the two sides, the Second Fleet's attack also encountered rare and fierce resistance, so much so that it took so long to destroy the production base of the first orbital planet.

When the Second Fleet successfully reunited, Yue Yuan once again held a temporary meeting on the Tianqin. The Tianqin is still in the battle, but it is no longer on the frontline battlefield, so there is no need to perform full-thrust acceleration and deceleration actions. After the second fleet joined, the number of the human fleet was completely superior to the opponent, so when the battle was about to end, Yue Yuan convened a high-level personnel through video to briefly analyze the next movement of the fleet.

It was not in the conference room, but everyone was fixed in their own position, and the discussion was conducted through video. During the battle, this form of discussion was very common and nothing unusual.

But at this time, Yue Yuan suddenly realized that everyone's faces were more or less old-fashioned. It was precisely when he saw everyone's changes that the sentence "Lanting" that had been hidden for an unknown period of time suddenly appeared in his mind. Words in the episode sequence.

I don’t know that old age is coming!

As the war continues, everyone is getting older.

When the first mate, second mate, correspondent, helmsman, fire controller, observer, analyst, scientific officer and engine crew appeared on the big screen one by one, Yue Yuan suddenly felt that time is fleeting. a feeling of.

When they first set out for this star galaxy, these people still looked like they were in their early twenties, with the air of youth. But now their appearance has begun to change to middle-aged, and the men's faces seem to have a touch of vicissitudes of life. , while women seem to have a little more mature charm.

Yue Yuan knew that this was because their life potion had expired and they had begun to enter the physiological cycle of aging slowly.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise his hand and click on the terminal in front of him, letting the camera reflect his face in front of him. He was using the camera as a mirror.

Yue Yuan remembered that the efficacy of his life potion had also reached its end, which seemed to be ten years ago.

However, at first glance, he was surprised to find that he seemed to have not changed much, and he still had the same handsome face as ten years ago.

"Maybe I didn't see it myself?"

Yue Yuan was stunned, a little disbelieving. Then, before the impromptu video conference began, he quickly pulled out photos of himself from ten years ago and compared them.

I thought there would be a difference in comparison, but I didn't expect that I couldn't see the difference at all. It seemed that there was no change at all. Yue Yuan, who did not believe in evil, also used electronic scanning to scan his appearance now and ten years ago and then compared it. The result was quite unexpected.

No big changes.

"Is it because I am aging slowly? That shouldn't be the case. Even if it is slower, I should be able to see changes in ten years. What on earth is going on?!"

Yue Yuan thought that he had misremembered the expiration date of his medicine. He even checked it through the archive center data. The result showed that it was the same as his memory, and it had expired ten years ago.

"It's strange! It seems that we can only wait until we return to the main civilization to see what's going on." This discovery made Yue Yuan a little confused, but he knew that now was not the time to think about this.

He immediately closed the mirror, then looked at the people who appeared on the video screen, and said: "According to the current situation, in another ten days and a half, we can easily win this battle. The goal of this expedition is It is basically completed. On this occasion, I would like to hear your opinions on whether we should take the risk and raid the core star field, or return to the base for repairs before making the next plan."

Because the battle was conducted remotely throughout the whole process, the First Fleet achieved impressive results. So far, it has only spent three million warships, which also includes the losses caused by the opponent's previous raids.

"Now we don't know exactly how many warships the other side has on the back of the planet, so I suggest that we stick to the original plan and go back to replenish fuel and maintain the damaged warships first. Venture to its core area. If the other side suddenly kills one, With the Grand Fleet, we are likely to be passive due to fuel problems.

Another point is that the combat method of the fleet in front of us is very puzzling. They can launch a melee charge against us, but they choose to keep fighting us from a distance. I think there is a trick in it. They may be showing weakness to us and want to lure us to victory. As we expand, we continue to attack their core star field."

As soon as Yue Yuan finished speaking, the first mate of the Tianqin expressed his point of view. However, before he could finish his words, a message from the Second Fleet interrupted his next words, oh no no, It should have interrupted the entire impromptu meeting.

Just listen to the correspondent say: "Commander Yue, communication request from the Commander of the Second Fleet."

"Connect!"

Yue Yuan realized that there must be something wrong with sending a communication request at this time, so he asked the correspondent to access the signal without saying anything.

Sure enough, as soon as the signal was connected, Manyuemei, who appeared on the screen, said straight to the point: "Shuai Yue, there is something, neutrino detection information: the large fleet of the interstellar trading market has moved, and it is still accelerating at an extremely fast speed. . The conclusion of our ship’s expert analysis is that the interstellar trading market is going to run away.”

Run away? ? ?

Yue Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of the abnormal performance of the fleet on the opposite side. It could clearly achieve a higher battle loss ratio with humans, but it inexplicably chose a fighting method that did not give it an advantage.

It seemed strange at the time, but as soon as this news appeared, Yue Yuan instantly understood. It turned out that he was using his life to delay time and buy time for the main civilization to escape.

"Is the news accurate?" Thinking of this, Yue Yuan said.

"It's almost as if there are about 70 million unknown spacecraft on the back side of the planet that have now left the orbit of the giant gaseous planet, and the direction is exactly opposite to where we are now. At present, our fleet has dispatched detectors to investigate the specific situation. As long as its magnetic field is confirmed again, By pushing the traces, you can confirm their specific route!" Manyuemei replied in her special voice. While speaking, the detection data of the Second Fleet was also shared with the Tianqin.

Upon seeing this, Yue Yuan waved his hand and distributed the data to every expert and scholar on the Tianqin.

Not long after, these experts and scholars also came to their own conclusions, which were roughly the same as those of the Second Fleet where Man Yuemei was located. The interstellar trading market had indeed begun to run away.

Then Yue Yuan ordered in the channel: "The intelligence department immediately arranges for detailed detection of all satellites of the gaseous planet in the second orbit. I need to know the details of the core area on the opposite side."
