Not long after, a starry sky map appeared in front of Yang Yi, with a jumping route marking the end point, but the end point was constantly changing, and the route was also changing.
How is this going
"Major, the route is locked."
Yang Yi frowned, he had never seen such a jumping route.
"This is the latest data. The route is adjusted at a frequency of ten times per second, and the law of change is determined by a three-dimensional function. Simply put, unless you master this function, even the advanced optical brain will not be able to accurately grasp the jump. The changing law of the route makes it impossible to determine the exact location of the space node. This should be the latest safety technology in the third theater and has never been used before."
"Are you sure?" Shen Chengwen couldn't help but ask.
"Absolutely certain."
Shen Chengwen blinked and looked at Yang Yi. He was obviously not at ease.
"Get ready." Yang Yi didn't say much, let alone express his worry.
In fact, it was the first time that Yang Yi heard about this technology. Although he was equally uneasy, Yang Yi also thought that the use of this method by the theater command meant that the homeland galaxy was threatened more than they knew before. I'm afraid Has been attacked by the enemy. Otherwise, there is no need to do it again.
So, is it safe to return to the home galaxy now
"Alan?"
"Major, the jump program has been set, and you can always..."
"Are there any abnormal findings?"
"Not for the time being. The garrison on the transit star did not act abnormally, nor did it have unusual spatial fluctuations, and there was no obvious original energy fluctuations nearby."
"obvious?"
"There are abnormal fluctuations in the original energy, but it is very weak, and it is initially judged to be a natural phenomenon."
"Search it again and display all the abnormal energy fluctuations detected. In addition, I will make the space jump after I give the order."
"clear."
"Is this necessary?" At this time, Shen Chengwen asked Yang Yi.
Otis also walked over, looking at Yang Yi without much understanding.
We have reached the door of the homeland galaxy, and no abnormal phenomena have been found. Is it necessary to be so cautious? Besides, the theater command provides dynamic navigation data with a frequency of change up to ten times per second. Even if an enemy ship is tracking, it may not be able to follow the "Xinghai" into the home galaxy.
Yang Yi didn't explain much, and now is not the time to explain.
Soon, the starry sky map changed, and some not very bright light spots appeared. It was the faint fluctuations in the original energy that were detected.
There are indeed no rules, just like natural phenomena.
You must know that the original energy is dark energy, which is ubiquitous in the universe, and is affected by other factors, such as gathering together or dispersing when the space is distorted, and fluctuations will occur when these changes occur. It is often referred to as the interference of the cosmic background.
Staring at him for a while, Yang Yi's brows frowned.
Otis became a little impatient, and she just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shen Chengwen.
"Allen, zoom in on this area."
"Major, this is the direction of the central region of the Southern Alpha Galaxy. The space distortion is the most serious, so the background interference is the most obvious."
"It is also the most likely place where the enemy ship is hiding."
Allen didn't say much, magnifying the area pointed out by Yang Yi ten times.
After watching carefully for a while, Yang Yi nodded thoughtfully.
"Something abnormal?" Shen Chengwen asked in a low voice. After following Yang Yi for so long, although I don't understand why, Shen Chengwen knows that Yang Yi's intuition is very sharp and he has never missed it. If Yang Yi feels something abnormal, then there must be something abnormal here.
"Not sure yet." Yang Yi glanced at Shen Chengwen, stepped forward, and personally marked several obvious sources of fluctuations on the starry sky chart. "Allen, get ready for the photon mine. The speed is set to the lowest gear, the concealed sailing mode, the sprint distance is set to 100,000 kilometers, and the explosion is wide."
"Major?"
"Excuting an order."
Allen didn't say much, and started to set up the photon mine.
"What do you want to do?" Otis finally couldn't help it.
Photon Thunder is not a weapon unique to the Star Weavers, nor is it powerful. It is equipped and used by all civilizations in the Galactic Alliance. More importantly, the main value of photon mines is not to attack enemy ships, but to explore unknown areas, similar to flares. Of course, if the target of the attack is a civilian spacecraft that has no protective capabilities, the photon mine is very valuable and can achieve the effect of regional strikes.
"It's better to be safe."
"This will expose us."
"It's nothing to expose now. If my worry is unnecessary, I will immediately jump into space and return to the home galaxy before the enemy on the transit star is dispatched." Yang Yi glanced at Otis and said, "If No, I'm afraid we have to find another shortcut."
Otis gritted her teeth and said nothing more.
"Major, Photon Ray is ready."
"Let's launch, show the real-time situation of this area."
"clear."
The photon mine is a small self-propelled weapon similar to a missile. Although it can be projected to increase the initial speed, it usually flies away from the mothership by itself, so the impact on the mothership is minimal. Not to mention that the "Xinghai" is a Liuying ship, even if it is an ordinary small warship, it may not vibrate when launching photon mines. Of course, the personnel on the battleship hardly felt the jitter when the photon mine was fired.
Of course, the speed of the photon mine can be preset.
Although in theory, in the case of launching by projection, a photon mine can fly at a speed close to the speed of light, even if it is self-propelled, it can accelerate to one-tenth the speed of light in a very short time, but the speed is not For warships that are not slow, the speed of the photon mine is not fast at all, so most of the time, it will set a slower initial speed and accelerate the sprint when it is close to the target.
Just like this, after launching the photon mine, you need to wait for a while.
Of course, for Yang Yi and others, in order to ensure safety, waiting for a while is not a big problem.
As time passes by, the data on the sky map is constantly changing.
According to Yang Yi's instructions, Allen displayed the real-time information, the most eye-catching is the set of countdown readings that are quickly returning to zero.
"Major?"
"Be prepared."
"clear."
With ten seconds left in the countdown, Allen activated the space jumping device. In fact, it only takes five seconds for the "Shadow" to complete the space jump.
Ten seconds have just passed, and there is a change on the sky map.
With a burst of thorny light flashing, hundreds of bright spots appeared on the starry sky map.
not good!
At this time, Yang Yimeng reacted.
"Allen, turn off the space jump system."
"what?"
"Execute immediately, the thruster is fully loaded, let us get out of here."
Although Allen is an intelligent program, the calculation speed is much faster than the human brain, but in terms of intelligence, it is still far inferior to human troubles, and the reaction speed is naturally not fast.
Fortunately, Allen will execute orders first.
With a violent shaking, the "Shadow" began to accelerate.
"What's going on!?" Otis exclaimed.
Shen Chengwen originally stared at Yang Yi, but turned his head after Otis screamed. He was also stunned when he saw the data in front of Otis.
The "Shadow" was indeed accelerating, but the speed did not increase.
"We have been found, and we have already entered the enemy's ambush circle." Yang Yichang exhaled and said, "I anticipated the potential threat, but ignored a key factor."
"what?"
"The speed of light."
Shen Chengwen was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Yang Yi with little understanding.
"We are about one hundred and fifty light seconds away from this area, so the signal we received actually happened one hundred and fifty seconds ago." Yang Yi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "One hundred and fifty seconds is enough. The enemy ship judged the course of the photon mine, and a warship advanced enough to make a short space jump. If the enemy is ready, it will arrive before we can react and imprison us."
"But… "
"Maybe, the enemy doesn't know our exact location, but it is obviously not difficult to confine an area."
Shen Chengwen was shocked and said, "You mean, we are in a confined space?"
Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "Otherwise, why hasn't the speed of the Xinghai increased?"
Shen Chengwen was silent, and didn't know what to say.
Yang Yi sighed secretly, and said nothing more.
In fact, when the flash of light appeared, Yang Yi reacted and realized that he had ignored the time when the photon thunder signal was sent back. Unfortunately, by the time he reacted, it was too late. What happened next was all in his expectation, so he was not surprised.
"What should I do now?" Otis came over.
Although it hadn't calmed down completely, Otis controlled her emotions. As the strongest existence here, she has enough self-confidence.
"Get ready to fight." Yang Yi grinned reluctantly, and said, "We are still alive, indicating that the enemy wants to catch alive, maybe we can come by surprise."
"What's the meaning?"
"The enemy knows that we are here, and even knows that our destination is the home galaxy, but may not know our true identity, and may not take us seriously." Yang Yi glanced at Otis and said, "Wait, you have to control Stay, don't act rashly. If we can kill the enemy by surprise, our hope of escape from this confined space is even greater. Now is not the time to do it."
Otis nodded, expressing that he understood what Yang Yi meant.
Yang Yi didn't say much, just nodded to Shen Chengwen to prepare him.
Although Otis has the strongest combat power, she has almost no actual combat experience. If something unexpected happens, Shen Chengwen is even more reliable.
At this time, there was a change in the sky map. The surroundings of the "Xinghai" became translucent, which was a powerful energy barrier.
Before Yang Yi could come back to his senses, a figure suddenly appeared, shocking Yang Yi and others. But it was not the enemy, but Allen who projected himself.
