Good luck with koi carp

Chapter 266 Insect Nest
The First Legion lived up to its reputation for being a good fighter; they even chose to base their base on the planet closest to the Zerg.

Chi Lili got up early in the morning and took the earliest interstellar public train to the First Legion’s base, but stood outside the gate of the other side’s base in a daze.

Before General Huo left yesterday, did he tell her where to go or who to report to?

"No." Chi Li answered affirmatively.

Just as Chi Lili was thinking about how she should step forward and explain her purpose, the gate of the confined base suddenly opened automatically, and a clerk-like figure walked out.

He was wearing a well-fitting military uniform and exuded a scholarly air. He looked more like a scholar than a soldier.

The other person had a polite smile on his face and took the initiative to come to Chi Lili and ask, "Excuse me, are you Captain Chi?"

"Yes." After arriving at the front line, Chi Lili's military rank was not high enough, and few people called her that.

"Hello, I'm Admiral Huo's adjutant, Theolo Lucci, with the rank of colonel. You can call me Colonel Lucci. Today is our shift change day. We are now preparing to leave for the battlefield to replace the Third Legion. Admiral Huo specifically ordered that you be added to the battle list. Is that okay with you?"

As soon as Xiolo came up, he told her the arrangements for Chi Lili. Although he symbolically asked for Chi Lili's opinion, military orders were like mountains, and Chi Lili could not disobey orders. So her opinion was not important, and she had to agree anyway.

"No." Chi Lili saluted and said solemnly.

Seeing that she obeyed the arrangements, Xiolo nodded with satisfaction, and then took Chi Lili on a flying vehicle inside the base to the base spaceship station.

More than a dozen huge ships have been anchored here, and there are countless small and medium-sized frigates around them. Each ship is like a giant steel beast about to attack, majestic and grim, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

As an important senior therapist, Chi Lili was directly assigned to the main battleship where Admiral Huo was, and was even invited to the general command room.

This was the first time that Chi Lili stood in the command room of a main battleship. Even though she tried her best to appear calm, she could not suppress her excitement. Her body did not move, but her eyes kept looking around. All she saw were top-notch facilities that she had only heard of but never actually seen. Whenever she could find something that corresponded to what she had learned before, she would be secretly excited for a while.

It was rare to see the host lose control of herself like this. Chi Li watched her doing various little actions with a smile, and felt that she looked quite sneaky, which was inexplicably funny.

Fortunately, all the people present were serious people, and everyone had come this far. Facing a young girl who was only eighteen years old, they just smiled knowingly at her performance and didn't say anything.

"Chi Lili." Admiral Huo suddenly shouted.

"Here!" Chi Lili stood at attention immediately, as if the teacher had called her out for being absent-minded in class. She didn't dare to look around or make any small movements, and her expression was slightly nervous.

"Come here." Admiral Huo motioned Chi Lili to come to him, then pointed to one of the small booths and asked her to sit there: "You will operate this part of the system."

Looking at the entire command room, except for the main operating table in the middle reserved for the commander-in-chief, the rest of the room is almost neatly filled with small slots of the same style. Each slot is a densely packed operating table, and the various display screens on it are constantly jumping with various data. If you have not studied it professionally, you will have no idea what these things mean.

After all, having undergone two years of all-round elite education and being a paper king herself, Chi Lili could understand these things. It was just her first time to actually put them into practice. However, she did not feel nervous. She just sat there as asked to. After carefully understanding the function of this seat, she began to try to get started.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that every seat here looks exactly the same. In fact, they only have the same seat style but completely different functions.

For example, the function controlled by Chi Lili is related to the thrusters on one side of the battleship.

A main battleship is huge in size, and the power required for traveling in the universe is naturally extremely huge, so the number of thrusters is particularly important. For example, the main battleship commanded by Admiral Huo is the largest battleship in the Federation, and even in the entire universe. It has hundreds of thrusters on board, and each thruster is also equipped with an independent power system. As long as the number of thrusters damaged on the entire battleship does not exceed 70%, the battleship can still continue to travel in the universe.

Taking into account that this was Chi Lili's first time operating the ship, the thrusters assigned to her by Admiral Huo were only responsible for propelling the warship and providing forward kinetic energy for the warship, but were not responsible for complex operations such as turning.

Maybe she will have the chance to learn this part in the future, but for now she still has to take it step by step.

This time, Chi Lili finally understood what General Gao meant when he asked her to come here to learn. It turned out that he really wanted her to learn skills instead of just using her as a mobile healing device on the battlefield.

Chi Lili's heart was suddenly touched, but before she could immerse herself in this emotion for long, the system's announcement rang in her ears: "01 Pilot is about to set sail, all departments are ready."

The highest main warship of each legion of the Federation is called the Navigator, which means leading the voyage and also means that the commander-in-chief must set an example as a leader. The only difference is that the numbers in front of the Navigator of different legions are different. For example, the First Legion is No. 01, the Second Legion is No. 02, and so on.

This numbering does not represent the strength of each legion, it is simply a distinguishing mark. However, the federal people still assume that the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Legions, which have been fighting on the front lines all year round, have the strongest overall strength. In the eyes of military insiders, this way of arranging strength is not rigorous, because their legions have never fought against each other, and in fact no one knows who is the strongest.

Of course, the federation does not allow them to fight among themselves. No one will care about some private conflicts of interest, but they must not bring them to the surface and let the public think that they are in internal discord, thus causing chaos.

Chi Lili followed the instructions of her former teacher and performed the standard operations meticulously, without any mistakes or omissions, and she never messed around based on her own assumptions.

As a novice, all she needed to do was to follow instructions.

It was obvious that her obedience was recognized. As Xiolo walked past her from behind, he nodded slightly and then went to patrol other places to prevent anyone from making any wrong operations.

The battleship vibrated slightly, and then gradually started its thrusters.

For the first time, Chi Lili sat at the operating console and watched the steel behemoth gradually fly up under her control, and slowly drive away from the docking station and head towards outer space.

"Speed ​​up, prepare to break through the atmosphere."

Chi Lili, holding the thruster, gradually increased her strength and pushed it forward. The thruster she controlled gradually increased its horsepower and worked together with other thrusters to push the huge warship out of the atmosphere, get rid of the gravity of the planet behind it, and enter outer space.

As soon as the spacecraft entered outer space, the intelligent system that was disturbed by the planet's magnetic field immediately came online and took over the control of the battleship. The battleship entered the automatic driving mode, but the operators like Chi Lili could not leave their posts because they had to go directly to the battlefield next. The battlefield situation changed rapidly, and it was impossible to rely solely on automatic driving to help them complete the battle.

This kind of example has happened before. The intelligent driving system of a warship has been damaged or malfunctioned for various reasons, causing the warship to exit the automatic driving mode. At this time, if the control of the warship cannot be taken over manually in the first time, then they will be forced to stay in the universe and become a sitting duck for various dangers.

There have been records in history that a very powerful fleet was destroyed because of this, and the country behind it gradually declined and was finally submerged in the long river of history because of the loss of this powerful force.

Since then, countries in the universe have introduced policies stipulating that all spacecraft, warships, etc. must not be out of the control of operators. Once a system failure occurs, it must be manually replaced.

Chi Lili had a communication headset on her left ear. While she was listening to the orders from her superiors, she was performing various operations on the operating table with both hands.

In addition to controlling the thrusters, she also has the task of overseeing the normal operation of monitoring and defense modes around the thrusters she controls.

As I said before, the Zerg are intelligent.

They know that interstellar people cannot survive in the vacuum of the universe without tools such as mechas or warships, so when they attack warships, they will deliberately destroy the warships' thrusters first, forcing them to stop in the universe, and then attack them in groups.

This tactic still occasionally works until now. Even though countries have taken a series of preventive measures against the Zerg's tactics, they are unable to completely defend against it.
Because humans are evolving, the Zerg are also evolving.

They created a small Zerg that can be invisible and emit strong electric currents, specifically designed to destroy warship thrusters.

This type of Zerg even has powerful mouthparts unique to Zerg, which can quickly chew up everything, including the hardest metal. Therefore, when the battleship thrusters encounter them, they feel like they are facing a powerful enemy and are extremely afraid.

The most effective protection against them is to use biological scanning detectors. After all, the Zerg are still a group of living creatures with bioelectricity on their bodies. Even if they can become invisible, the detector can still accurately find them.

The intelligent system will monitor every thruster on the warship at all times, but the same principle still applies: no matter how powerful a machine is, it can sometimes fail, so the combination of manual and system control is the safest option.

The distance from the First Legion’s base planet to the battlefield can be reached in less than half an hour at high speed by a battleship.

The Third Legion is ready to retreat.

They fought and retreated, gradually coming to the edge of the battlefield. As soon as they detected the approach of the First Legion's fleet, they immediately opened all their guns and fired all the remaining shells, forcing back the pursuing Zerg.

Taking advantage of the time difference when the Zerg sent reinforcements, they activated the reverse thrust device and pushed the entire fleet backwards out of the battlefield, while the First Legion's fleet immediately filled in.

The two completed the handover skillfully and smoothly.

The number of Zerg is endless, and they can keep fighting, but the armies of various countries in the universe cannot keep fighting a war of attrition with them. Tired soldiers always need to rest, but the enemy will not give them the chance to rest.

So gradually, this rotation system evolved on the front battlefield.

Taking the Federation as an example, each of their three legions takes turns to fight for a period of time, and then changes shifts at the appointed time. Occasionally, the team with more energy can stay and fight for a longer period of time, allowing the other two teams to rest for a while.

Don't doubt it, the 'occasionally' in it refers to the First Legion. Under the leadership of their legion commander, every member of the First Legion enjoys and loves fighting. In their eyes, the battlefield is the belonging of their life.

Fortunately, they are a regular army, otherwise in the eyes of outsiders they would be a group of crazy soldiers who are not afraid of death and rush to wherever there is danger.

Chi Lili has heard a lot of rumors like this since she came to the front battlefield, but she has never had a clear understanding. In her eyes, the people of the First Legion are all very serious and don't look like battle maniacs at all.

It was not until the moment of handover that she heard Admiral Huo give the order: "Prepare for space jump."

Space jump?!

We are already on the battlefield now, where else can we jump to?

"Wow, so exciting." Chi Li smiled with interest, while Chi Lili opened her eyes wide in astonishment, but still subconsciously pulled the thrusters she was controlling to maximum power.

If you want to jump between spaces, in addition to using super-atomic beams to forcibly open the space black hole, you must also pass through it at the most extreme speed, because every place in the space tunnel is full of space storms and various indescribable substances. Once you stay in it for too long, you will not only be easily trapped in it and unable to get out, but it may also cause unpredictable damage to the human body.

Therefore, all countries in the universe have made regulations for all interstellar vehicles with space jump capabilities, limiting the distance they can jump at one time, the time they can spend crossing space tunnels, etc.

But Chi Lili is convinced that these restrictive regulations are only effective for civil aviation and some official aircraft, and are absolutely useless for military warships, especially those still in fierce battlefields.

After all, just looking at the huge black hole opening in front of her, Chi Lili didn't think that the distance of this jump was short.

This time, the First Legion sent out a total of sixteen main battleships and nearly two hundred frigates.

Only eight of the main battleships will perform space jumps, and the rest of the fleet will remain in place to fill the defensive gap left by the departure of the Second Legion.

Before Chi Lili figured out Admiral Huo's intention of dividing the troops, she suddenly felt a strong push on her back. She subconsciously covered herself with the small mecha on her fingers, blocking most of the discomfort caused by the ultra-long-distance space jump.

Glancing around from the corner of my eye, I saw that everyone had equipped themselves with small mechas in tacit agreement.

It's not that no one reminded Chi Lili. Before the system was about to make a space jump, a reminder popped up on the operating screen in front of her. However, the official notification had too many words, and she started the jump before she had time to read them all. Fortunately, her years of training instinctively allowed her to equip herself with a small mecha as soon as possible, otherwise Chi Lili would definitely be so uncomfortable that she would vomit after the jump.

She was feeling very uncomfortable now, just like a person who was severely motion sickness and had been sitting on a long-distance bus for three days and three nights without taking motion sickness medicine. Her head was dizzy and her stomach was churning wildly. If she didn't close her throat tightly, the stomach acid might spread up uncontrollably.

Fortunately, she managed to hold it in after the small mecha helped to reduce most of the discomfort.

Seeing that the host was in pain, Chi Li took the initiative to return to her spiritual sea and used gentle spiritual energy to help relieve her symptoms.

Maybe only a second had passed, or ten seconds, a minute, or ten minutes?

No matter how long it took, when this ultra-long-distance space jump finally ended, Chi Lili finally relaxed, and then couldn't help but cover her mouth and sigh.

This sound attracted the attention of people nearby, but they just smiled kindly or looked away silently without saying anything. It was obvious that they could understand the newcomer's discomfort.

A kind sister sitting next to her gave Chi Lili a piece of plum candy: "Put this in your mouth and it will feel better."

"Thank you." Chi Lili opened the candy wrapper and put the candy into her mouth. The sour candy neutralized the nausea very well, making her feel much better.

"No, just concentrate on what you are doing next. We are moving at a very fast pace." The kind sister smiled and kindly reminded her, then focused on the busy work...

Under bombardment.

It turned out that what she was controlling was the super-energy planetary cannon carried on the battleship!

The super-energy planetary cannon, as the name suggests, is a terrifying cannon that is rumored to be able to blow up a planet with one shot. Its power is more terrifying than thousands of nuclear bombs. It is the essence of contemporary interstellar technology and the foundation for a great cosmic power.

Artillery shells of this level are generally not used between countries, because wherever they reach, the universe will be in ruins. However, when used on the battlefield with the Zerg, it becomes a very lethal force, especially for dealing with Zerg nests.

Wait, Zerg nest!

Chi Lili looked in the direction of the muzzle in shock, and suddenly discovered that they had actually made a space jump and arrived directly in front of the Zerg's nest, and were launching a full-scale bombardment on the nest!

So this is what the kind-hearted sister meant by a fast pace?

That’s indeed fast. We went straight to the enemy’s lair. How could it not be fast?

"Awesome!" Lian Chi Li gave a thumbs up to Admiral Huo's superb efficiency.

No wonder this man was privately called the God of War, he was truly a god. In fact, from the fact that her original owner could give her a spirit beast, Chi Li should have understood that Admiral Huo was not a simple character.

The Zerg nest in front of him was extremely large. It was built by the Zerg after hollowing out an entire large planet. Its appearance looked strange, a bit like a twisted honeycomb, covered with dense holes, and there were some unknown secretions sticking to the surface, firmly fixing the entire nest together.
