Outskirts of Boötes Hollow.
Haig was very unhappy. Although he said that he did not hit with all his strength, he was definitely not weak.
However, he actually killed the opponent completely.
The most important thing is that after the opponent appeared, Haig also sensed that although the creatures in the battleship were not weak, they were definitely not strong. At most, they were only slightly stronger than ordinary ethnic-level purgatory creatures.
But this kind of creature, which was like an ant compared to him, escaped a blow from him.
This made it extremely unhappy.
However, just as Shangguan Youlan had gambled, the blows at a distance of dozens of AU could not be fired in rapid succession, otherwise the special organ in Hege's body would never be able to sustain it.
Of course, it is not impossible to force another shot, but the price required is definitely very high, just for that ant in the distance
Haig said it’s not worth it! !
After all, even if he stops taking action, with the opponent's current speed, it will be impossible to escape in a short time.
And these seventh-level creatures under his command can reach the location of the opponent's warship within seven minutes by opening a space transmission channel at will.
"You guys, go and bring that battleship back to me!"
"Yes, Lord Haig!"
After receiving the order, five seventh-level leader-level purgatory creatures immediately flew out from the first legion, and one of them had already begun to calibrate the target position and run energy, preparing to open the space transmission channel.
"Lord Haig, the inability to open the passage seems to be blocked by a strange force!"
"What?"
Haig was a little surprised.
He has always believed that the space transmission channel cannot be blocked, and it has never been blocked in his life.
But now.
The energy in his body began to circulate, and he tried it himself, and then frowned deeply.
Sure enough it doesn't work
Just like what my subordinate said just now, when I wanted to open the space channel, I felt a strange energy suppression and was unable to successfully establish the channel.
"That battleship has been severely damaged and cannot be escaped. You can just go like this. Remember not to kill the humans inside. I want to know from them the secret of why they prevent us from establishing a space passage!"
"Yes, Lord Haig!"
Five leader-level domain creatures immediately led a group of ethnic-level creatures and flew towards the human warship 30 AU away.
However, without the use of space transmission channels, it is not an easy task to cross the 30AU distance.
At their speed, they wouldn't be able to get there in less than a few days.
—
At the same time, outside of 30AU, with the battleship actively disintegrating to reduce its mass to a minimum, and with the joint efforts of dozens of mechas, the remaining modules of the battleship are slowly accelerating, and have now reached a speed of 100 kilometers per second.
"Captain, our speed has increased to one hundred kilometers per second, but in terms of the thrust of the mecha, this is already the limit. Calculated at the current speed, it will take us nearly 2 hours to reach the star gate!"
"However, since we gathered all the people together and abandoned most of the modules of the battleship, this also resulted in less air remaining, and it is expected that it will be exhausted in ten minutes at most!"
After some calculations, the adjutant reported to Shangguan Youlanhui, with a hint of worry in his voice!
"How many combat uniforms do we have now?"
"About 358 sets!"
"Take them all out immediately and put them on everyone after the oxygen is insufficient. The combat suit has its own life support system. Even if there is no supplement, it should be no problem to maintain the air supply for several hours!"
The adjutant reacted immediately. How could he have forgotten this thing
You know, the total crew of the entire strategic reconnaissance ship is only 498 people. After excluding the 100 people who were killed before and the more than 50 people who are driving mechas outside, the remaining people are actually not in combat uniforms. a large amount.
Therefore, 358 combat uniforms are enough to support all current crew members!
"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away!"
After responding, the adjutant immediately took a few people to arrange the distribution of combat uniforms.
"Captain, Lantels, the captain of the mecha team, reported that on the mecha radar, it was found that tens of thousands of targets are approaching us. The estimated arrival time is three days later!"
"It should be that I found that the space channel was interfered with and could not be established, so I had to come here in this way. This also shows that the other party is just as I thought, unable to continuously launch that kind of attack. Tell Rantels, ignore it!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Time is passing by, and soon more than ten minutes have passed.
At this time, the air in the ship had become very thin, and breathing seemed to be extremely difficult.
However, everyone who had been prepared for this and all put on combat uniforms did not appear panicked.
Following Shangguan Youlan's order, everyone immediately put on the helmets of the combat uniforms and turned on the small life support system that came with the combat uniforms.
Suddenly, everyone had the same feeling.
Ah, finally alive!
The speed of 100 kilometers per second may be considered very fast by people in the old days.
However, in this interstellar age, it is as slow as a turtle crawling.
It was only a distance of 700,000 kilometers, and it took almost two hours to arrive.
"Activate the star gate sequence, target the Sasar star field!"
"Yes, Captain!"
—
Sasar Star Territory, where the Federation Expeditionary Force is stationed.
"Is there any news from Shangguan Youlan?"
"Not yet, do you need me to contact you?"
"No, contacting him proactively risks exposing his whereabouts. Wait a minute!"
For some reason, Lin Fan always had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Marshal, the establishment of a space channel has been detected, the distance is 5.88 million kilometers!"
"Sound the first-level battle alarm, and the Netherworld and Fearless fleets will set off immediately!"
"yes!"
At this moment, the entire station was running like a precision instrument. The third legion of the Fearless Fleet and the seventh legion of the Nether Fleet on duty immediately surrounded the coordinates of the space passage entrance after receiving the order, and The rest of the fleets are also ready for first-level battles and are ready to attack at any time!
"How's it going? Is there a signal coming?",
"No!"
Lin Fan frowned.
If it was Shangguan Youlan, then according to standard procedures, she should have sent a return message in advance before opening the space channel. Even if something went wrong and caused a hasty retreat, the signal should have been sent by this time.
But in fact, I still haven't received anything.
"The energy response changes in the channel have been detected, and it's coming out!"
"This is."
