Him and their stars.

Chapter 1902 Reunion of old friends

"It's nothing more than a patrol fleet of cats where the Helots are suppressing slave labor. A group of overseers who can only wield whips cannot be considered warriors... Uh, what I mean is that the Imperial fleet on the other side said that they were attacked by an unknown group of space worms. Sir, since it is a clear distress signal, the surrounding Imperial fleets should flock to it. The new Imperial battleship that is conducting exercises in Hanshi 12 may also come over."

Since the newly built dreadnoughts were being tested, it was naturally the Imperial Guards' action. These people were not the crooked ones of the local fleets, each of them was elite and fierce.

"But we are fighting against the elite." Anne Romanova added suddenly.

"Yes! We are fighting against the elite!" Captain Nemo responded loudly, but after noticing Yu Lian's eyes, he quickly frowned: "Uh, this, that... What your subordinate means is that for safety reasons, it is best to move quickly. According to the patrol schedule and deployment on the star map, the nearest reinforcements should arrive here within 6 hours. However, if we move now and take the No. 4 gravity well to bypass the Tx404 system, we may be able to avoid at least three waves of patrol fleets and may be able to arrive at Steel Rock Fortress at least hours earlier."

Although he acted in a businesslike manner, his eyes were filled with anticipation, as if he was eagerly waiting for the commander to give other instructions.

Yu Lian did pause for a moment, but two seconds later, he issued a new order: "All ships maintain leakage mode and enter charge mode. When the enemy fleet enters the effective range of the arc cannon, immediately fire a salvo."

"understand!"

As a result, everyone became really excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Of course, Yu Lian felt that these guys were indeed very excited, but the degree of their excitement was still very limited, just like after asking for magnetic force to download the film, they found out that it was a blurry version and the teacher was ugly.

Yu Lian put his hands behind his back and said expressionlessly: "...Captain, you guys don't want to lie in wait here until the Imperial Army reinforcements arrive, do you? It would be best if those dreadnoughts being tested could get through and crash into our encirclement. Don't you think so?"

Everyone looked at each other, then lowered their heads.

"...Look, look at what you said, that's not the case." Anne forced an awkward smile.

"Yes, after all, our first priority is to preserve ourselves." Captain Nemo was as serious as a professionally trained Indian butler, speaking with an authentic Oxford accent, like a Brahmin.

"Safety first. Hehehehe, we are sneaking. Secret infiltration or something." The first mate's smile was ugly and vulgar.

"I just want to do research. When I go back this time, I can become a fellow of astrobiology." Dr. Eddington still looked like a nerd.

Hey, can any one of you be a little more confident?

At this moment, Yu Lian just felt extremely tired.

As a member of the Tiger Talisman Group, a psychic, and a 25-year-old admiral, he should have been the one with the most no taboos, but now he has become the last line of defense for the rational faction on this ship. This sense of mission makes him full of pressure.

Feifei volunteered, "Then let me take charge."

There should still be one rational person, right?

Yu Lian nodded knowingly.

"Ah, how can you do that... Uh, you can try it if you want!" Annie was about to express her dissatisfaction, but when Feifei glanced at her, she immediately changed her words and said seriously: "I know you also have a gunner's qualification certificate. Uh, okay, please."

Just like that, the weapon known as the double-penetration arc cannon, a conceptual weapon that was supposed to still be waiting for laboratory demonstration, shone with deadly brilliance thirty years earlier on this timeline.

Fifteen minutes later, quantum ripples like lightning rushed into the void, enveloping the fighting imperial warships and those unknown "Leviathans".

The effect was just as Yu Lian had expected, some were broken into pieces, some were burning, and some were dizzy and started spinning in place.

As expected of a legendary metaphysical weapon, the light carrier that had already been set on fire by the Zerg swarm collapsed on the spot, and the heavy cruiser was completely engulfed by the fierce fire from the explosion inside, but the light cruisers were clearly

Of course, even the vast swarms of insects were wiped out in an instant by more than half.

The scene was like cleaning dust with a feather duster.

If the dusting and sweeping are not clean the first time, it is time to do it a second time.

Half a second later, a second round of quantum lightning streaked across the starry sky. This time, all those densely packed "interstellar wasps" were completely swept away, and the remaining imperial warships also began to implode violently.

"Where is the Imperial Army's clear message for help?" Yu Lian turned around and asked.

Lieutenant Hines reported: "It has completely stopped. The communication equipment must have been completely destroyed."

In other words, the last communication this wave of Imperial fleet left to the outside world was "We were attacked by unidentified space worms."

"Very good, send them on their way." Yu Lian ordered in a deep voice. The fierce lightning that tore through the starry sky fell into the sky again, completely shattering the remaining stunned imperial warships.

"Well, it took three salvos to kill a patrol squadron." Feifei stood up from the position of the main gunner and clapped her hands: "The armament of the Enlightened Ones is not as invincible as imagined."

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and they all felt that Fisina was a bit harsh on Colonel Li.

Captain Nemo said: "This... well, I think that even if the Empire's dreadnoughts come, these three ships will destroy them."

A brigadier general calling himself "your subordinate" to a colonel is not even an act. The most important thing is that, except for Yu Lian himself, everyone seems to take it for granted.

"If three rounds don't work, four or five will be almost enough," said Annie.

"I know." Feifei smiled: "I was just saying something gossipy. Oh my, if you stay in the literary and artistic world for a long time, you will definitely become sarcastic and mean."

What else can everyone say? Naturally, they can only say that the schoolmaster is so humorous, and that you are not being sarcastic at all, but are clearly using the artist's sense of humor to relieve everyone's stress.

Of course, Yu Lian was the only one present who knew who Feifei was complaining about.

Sure enough, he vaguely heard a familiar voice snorting beside his ear, like a female space ghost passing by.

If we put all these aside, the bombardment operated by Feifei herself was indeed perfect. Not only did it wipe out the warships and dragonworms, but it didn't even hit the dwarf planet nearby.

If there really is a Zerg sub-base and a Zerg lord hidden there, they should still be alive.

After making sure that the opposing Imperial battleship had been destroyed, not even a lifeboat had escaped, Yu Lian then ordered the disabling of the "Mirage" system of the Silence.

Captain Nemo certainly did not object. As an Indian steward who knows how to live, he couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw the energy reserves on the ship decreasing. It is better not to use stealth, which is a big energy consumer.

However, he still gave orders to the ship: "There may still be unknown Leviathans left at the scene, so keep a safe distance. All departments remain alert."

The Enlightened warship unfolded its majestic body in the deep space, as if an ancient god appeared in the void, and floated towards the battlefield at a leisurely pace.

There are countless fragments of warships scattered here, as well as the remains of smaller insects.

The Silence was hovering only 200 million kilometers away from the dwarf planet, already within the range of those strange beams. However, no one on the ship thought this was a risky move.

They had enough confidence in their warship. In front of this giant ship, even the small dwarf planet could be torn apart at any time.

The detection light of the Illuminator warship silently passed over the dwarf planet covered with caves and gullies, and the onboard terminal immediately responded: "Unknown creatures discovered, outline projection started."

"Number 2000 to 3000, start the second round of detection."

Yu Lian looked at the preliminary outline projection given by the terminal. Their outlines were still blurry, but as someone who knew the Zerg best, some general lines were enough to complete the identification.

Needless to say, he naturally distinguished the dragon worms that looked like bats, and the huge tower worms that looked like giant beetles. Of course, there were also a small number of devourers and hatching worms.

Yu Lian walked to the observatory and looked directly at the dwarf planet in the distance. His perception crossed the sea of ​​stars, passed through the surface of the planet, passed through the internal cooling tunnel, and passed by the remaining bugs.

They are living things, but they are just shells and have no meaning for communication.

The only individual worth communicating with was hiding in the deepest part of the dwarf planet. It seemed to have sensed Yu Lian's emotions and cautiously poked its head out from behind the cave, like a frightened stray cat.

However, after a brief hesitation, it came forward enthusiastically as if it had found its owner.

Come on, the stray cat has become a lost stupid dog.

Yu Lian had just complained when the swarm's mental network once again blossomed in front of him as expected.

It is a spiritual universe composed of the neurons of living things. Each node of the Overlord is a galaxy, and can also constitute the entrance and exit of this universe.

Compared to the one four years ago, this universe was naturally much larger. But Yu Lian still easily found the core of the universe.

For a moment, Yu Lian actually felt a sense of familiarity as if he were meeting an old friend again.
