When the alarm was lifted, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. When Yang Yi arrived in the cockpit, the "Shadow" had resumed its normal sailing status.
In order to prevent the propulsion system from malfunctioning due to overload, after flying out of the inescapable area of the primordial black hole, the speed of the "Shadow" was reduced to one-tenth the speed of light. As long as it maintains this speed, the "Shadow" will be able to get rid of the primordial black hole, and then make a space jump.
"Colonel, this is a message from the probe."
"show."
According to Lin Feng's instructions, Allen projected the image in front of everyone.
Seeing that large battleship, Yang Yi frowned, Shen Chengwen secretly sighed, Jackson and others looked very ugly.
After Yang Yi went to the propulsion module, Lin Feng gave Allen an order to let Allen release a few small detectors and let these detectors work in a passive manner. After receiving the contact signal from the "Shadow", Then send the collected information to the "Shadow" to avoid being discovered by the enemy.
Obviously, Yang Yi's speculation is not wrong.
"Can you recognize the origin of the battleship?"
"No, the warship is highly camouflaged, and the technology used is much more advanced than that of the Shadow. I cannot use the information obtained to determine the origin of the warship."
Lin Feng nodded slightly and looked at Yang Yi.
"Obviously, this is a battleship from a certain top civilization." Yang Yi grinned reluctantly and said, "At least, I don't know which high civilization wants to take my life. Besides, we are in the central area, It’s not very far from the Alliance Star, and no high-level civilization dares to live here."
"What should we do now?"
"Alan, how many routes are there to the Hidden Spirit Star from here?"
"There is only one. The next space node is two hundred and fifty light years away. It is an asteroid. Do you need to prepare for a space jump?"
"Being not."
Lin Feng was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Yang Yi not quite clearly.
Although the "Shadow" has got rid of the primordial black hole, it is impossible to fly to the hidden spirit star at one-tenth the speed of light, and must make a space jump.
"Even if we deceived that spaceship, going to the next space node now will not have a good result." Yang Yi glanced at Lin Feng, then glanced at the others before saying, "Although the battleship May not go to the next space node, because doing so is too blatant, and it is easy to associate with the outside world. But the guy who dealt with us secretly must be paying close attention to all the news related to the human federation. If the'Shadow' appears At the next space node, the news will spread out soon. Obviously, I won’t have such good luck next time. If I were that guy, I would use a more direct method to deal with the Shadow."
"The problem is, there is only one route." Shen Chengwen said.
"Old Shen is right. Even if we cross one or even several space nodes, with the ability of the'Shadow', we can't go directly to the hidden spirit star. We will have to stop at least twice in the middle." Jackson sighed. Said, "No matter where we stay, as long as we show up, the news will go out, and even if the guy who scams us is too late, he will deal with us at the next place."
"Can't you not go to Yinlingxing because of this?" Lin Feng also said.
"Be patient, it's always true."
"But… "
Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "It's not just us who takes time, but the guy who secretly dealt with us."
"What do you mean?" Jackson asked for everyone.
"According to normal circumstances, the'Shadow' will reach the Shadow Star in five days. When we set off from the Alliance Star, the ambassador sent a note, and Speaker Alora personally came to see us off, so the outside world already knew that the Shadow 'The matter of going to the hidden spirit star. If we do not reach the hidden spirit star in five days, even if the sage emperor is the one who is conspiring us, he will definitely do enough to avoid suspicion, at least he will arrange a search operation. He will appear here when he finds it. After the original black hole, the hidden spirit race will announce that the'Shadow' has encountered an accident on the way to the hidden spirit star. At that time, even if they know what is going on, no one will dare to come forward and criticize the Holy Emperor."
"You mean, wait until then?"
Yang Yi nodded and said, "At most ten days, and we can use these ten days to make some preparations, such as staying away from here in normal flight."
Jackson nodded thoughtfully, showing that he understood what Yang Yi meant.
"When everyone thinks we are finished, we will move on to the next node. Of course, we have to disguise the Shadow before that."
"It's best to change a spaceship." Shen Chengwen said.
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Obviously, no one will take the initiative to send us a spaceship. If you contact the outside world at this time, even if you contact the Queen of Star Soul, there is no guarantee that the news will not be leaked. To be on the safe side, We better keep silent."
"No one will take the initiative to send us a spaceship, so try to find a spaceship by yourself."
"Looking for?" Yang Yi looked at Jackson.
"Alan?"
"exist."
"Display the route map, as well as all the star systems within ten light-years of the route, and if so, display the information of the star systems."
"Hold on."
Yang Yi walked to Jackson and wanted to know what medicine Jackson was selling.
"Brother, don't look at me like that. Everyone is a man." Jackson laughed and said, "You know, what I did before I met you. Although mainly in the Greenwich meteorite belt, I can occasionally receive some other events. The mission. Especially after we have gained some reputation, we are often asked to be bodyguards to escort a big person or some valuables to the central area."
"Have you been around here before?"
Jackson nodded and said: "Although the central region is not like the northern region, even the most rampant pirates dare not sway the market on the top and advanced civilizations, but for all pirates, the central region It is simply a piece of fat dripping with oil. As long as you can successfully get a vote here, you will not only get unimaginable benefits, but also become famous and become the most valuable sign."
"Are there pirates around here?" Lin Feng was also surprised.
"Of course there is, but it's well hidden."
At this time, Allen showed the route map with the distribution of stars.
Lin Feng wanted to ask a few more words. Yang Yi shook her head to tell her not to disturb Jackson. If Jackson hadn’t said nonsense that there were pirates nearby, there must be a pirate’s lair. Obviously, as long as you find the pirate’s nest, you can get a spaceship, even a pirate ship.
However, Jackson stared at the route map for a long time without saying a word.
"Brother?" Yang Yi finally couldn't help it.
"These places," Jackson said after sighing after marking several star systems on the route map. "There are piracy activities in these star systems, it's just over a hundred years ago. I know that, with the exception of a few wise pirates who know how to take in, all the pirates in the central area are short-lived. Because of fear of being encircled, the pirates here never stay in one place for a long time."
"You mean..."
"Even a painstakingly managed base will usually only exist for a few decades. As long as there is a bit of trouble, these pirates will give up everything and escape, and some will even leave the central area." Jackson grinned reluctantly and said, " For pirates, only by saving their lives can they enjoy the money they earn. Even if they are all desperadoes, no pirate is willing to lose his life."
"now what?"
Jackson shook his head without saying much.
"In that case, let's try our luck."
"Brother..."
"Brother, you have helped a lot." Yang Yi smiled and said, "Besides, we definitely can't stay here. Since I don't know where to go, why not use this time to talk about what you said. Take a look at a star system. Maybe, our luck is good enough."
Jackson nodded, and he can only think so now.
"Allen, plan the shortest route."
"clear."
"Brother Yang, are you planning to rob pirates like this?" Shen Chengwen walked over at this moment. "Don't you think this is too shining?"
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled bitterly.
"Old Shen was right. We can't appear as human beings, at least we can't be soldiers of the Human Federation." Lin Feng also walked over. "Even if we are dealing with pirates, there is no guarantee to kill all pirates. As long as one is released, our whereabouts will be leaked.
"Use poison to fight poison." Shen Chengwen said directly.
"To be precise, it should be black eating black." Yang Yi smiled and said, "We can't change our human identity, so we can only pretend to be pirates. Since Jackson has been here more than a hundred years ago, Then it may not be a strange thing that a human pirate appears in the central area. Besides, our goal is to seize a pirate ship, not to fight other pirates."
Shen Chengwen nodded, that's what he meant.
"Okay, let's prepare everyone." Yang Yi exhaled and said to Jackson, "Brother, those who can do more work, you have to worry about it."
"What's the matter, this is my duty."
Seeing Yang Yi and Jackson praising each other, Lin Feng was speechless, and quickly came forward to stop the two of them, and ordered other officers and soldiers to make preparations.
Obviously, with Jackson present, it is not a hassle for the officers and soldiers of the strategy squadron to dress up as pirates.
As for Justin, Barker and others, although they are not pirates, the difference between interstellar mercenaries and pirates is not very big. In many people's eyes, there is no difference between the two at all.
Yang Yi and Lin Feng didn't make preparations, and they didn't need it. Don't forget, Yang Yi and Lin Feng dressed up as male and female robbers before going to confuse the gods.
Of course, everyone is very excited to think of robbing a house in the central area as a pirate.
You know, this is the backyard of top civilization and advanced civilization. It is possible to make a fire here, even if it does not pose a substantial threat to the top civilization, it is also a matter worthy of a big book, and it will definitely be doubled in the future. To have face, at least is a good talk.
