Apocalyptic Dark Age

"Your Excellency, Commander, the Frank heavy battleship energy system transformation project has been completed, and the battleship repair progress is 100% complete. The remaining material in the combat readiness reserve is 73%, and the range is 17,800 kilometers. Are you waiting for the next order?"

Masati's loud report woke up Gao Feng, who was in a daze. He looked up blankly and saw Masati with bright eyes. He suddenly remembered that the transformation of the energy system was his most important thing. As long as the energy system of the battleship was replaced with energy crystals , it will reduce the empty load by fifty tons out of thin air, not only reduce the consumption of fuel, but also exponentially increase the combat effectiveness of the warship, and reduce the waiting time for the launch of the electromagnetic gun by three-fifths, and they will no longer have to The lack of energy consumption can be regarded as killing multiple birds with one stone.

"Where have we been?"

Gao Feng braced himself and looked at the reconnaissance footage fed back by the drone. On the screen, the previously endless grasslands and layers of forests had disappeared, leaving only countless desolate sand dunes. Occasionally, alienated people could be seen on the sand dunes. Plants, looking around, no longer have the majestic grandeur of the armored horses back then, they have become lifeless.

"According to previous map comparisons, we should have arrived at the Maldives Islands..."

Upon hearing this, Gao Feng was speechless. He did not expect that in his previous life, the vast South Pacific had turned into grasslands and forests, and the islands in Southeast Asia had also become undulating hills and forests. Based on this calculation, the area of ​​​​the Infinite Forest was roughly equivalent to that of the previous life. The land area is even larger, which means that the Infinite Forest alone covers more than 10 million square kilometers.

"Excuse me, it took more than half a month to get here, and you still don't know how long there is to go?"

Gao Feng looked at the old map from his previous life with a headache. He naturally knew where he was ahead. If he continued to move forward, he could reach Tibet after crossing India. But the question was, what else was waiting for him ahead? Apart from thrills and accidents, not a single day of this half-month journey was stable. Except for Kalea and the two children who were still sleeping in the captain's room, there were all kinds of new accidents every day that made people worry.

"What's the frequency of attacks these days?"

Although the battleship has been almost repaired, Gao Feng does not think they can return to their own territory intact. The most critical problem is that he does not understand the world of Jialuo. If he goes to someone else's territory and causes misunderstanding, it will be troublesome. Oh, God knows if India is now the residence of a certain family?

"It has dropped by more than 70%, and it is still decreasing with a certain frequency. Maybe by tomorrow, there will not be one..."

Masati was very concerned about her main business. She opened her mouth and came. Gao Feng nodded. Now the spider has grown three times in size. Half a month of delicious food and drink has made its aura more and more terrifying. It is covered with swords and guns. It is difficult to enter, and the impact on perception is increasing day by day. Even if clusters of aerial creatures launch attacks, they will be easily solved by spiders. There is no need for Gao Feng to worry about anti-air defense.

"Is there any problem in reaching China through old India, across Tibet?"

Gao Feng was not a domineering person, and telling him his ultimate goal was probably the fastest way to go home. However, Masati did not nod immediately, but frowned tightly, thinking about something. , Masati's caution did not cause Gao Feng's displeasure, staring at the increasingly alienated Masati, waiting for her recovery, after all Masati is the temporary commander of the fleet.

"Your Majesty Commander, please forgive me for not agreeing..."

When Masati opened her mouth, Gao Feng was stunned. Masati, who had always obeyed her orders, was a bit overwhelmed by the sudden appearance. Fortunately, Gao Feng was not a willful person and looked at Masati calmly, waiting for her. explanation later.

"India has complex terrain with undulating hills, which are suitable for flying creatures to nest. If we cross India, we will encounter more aerial attacks. What's more, crossing India, we will reach the plateau area, which is closer to the electromagnetic radiation clouds. At that time, it will cause conflicts among electrical components, leading to technical failures in the fleet, and the entire army will be destroyed if not careful.

In addition, we do not have enough logistics to ensure that we cross this unknown land. Even if we want to cross, we must have at least one regiment of air power and soldiers, and we must be prepared to lose one-third of our active forces. So far, we have only Able to find the safest route forward, any adventure will cause unpredictable disaster... "

Masati's words suddenly calmed down Gao Feng's heated mind. He sat in a chair and meditated. Masati was right. They did not have strong strength, continuous logistics, and timely and effective intelligence to challenge the unknown. The vast area is really risky. The reason why this small fleet has been able to support so far without any danger is not because of how strong Gaofeng is. Most of it is due to Masati's caution, preferring to slow down rather than speed up. Take risks, otherwise the fleet would have suffered heavy losses.

"I want to reach the hinterland of China. What route do you think is better?"

Gao Feng threw the problem to Masati irritably. At least in terms of fleet command, Masati was stronger than him, so she might be able to come up with a good solution. Unexpectedly, Masati also began to think deeply, and after a while he said:

"If I were asked to choose, I would choose the route that the commander has passed. At least you have a better understanding of the environment there."

"What? You're not mistaken, right? I asked you to change the route just because it was too dangerous. This..., what is this?"

Gao Feng was so angry at Masati's words that he almost ate Masati up with his angry eyes. He unnaturally released the super oppressive force of Xianjun Jia Luo from his body, causing Masati's body to tilt back slightly. It seemed as if it had been blown away by the strong wind.

After finally waiting for Gao Feng's evil fire to weaken, Masati's slightly frightened eyes regained their composure, and patiently explained to Gao Feng:

"Compared with unknown dangers, known dangers are acceptable. As long as we take precautions against known dangers, we can minimize the dangers. The most difficult thing to prevent is unknown dangers, which can cause the destruction of a large fleet. There are too many dangers. If you don't pay attention, your entire army may be wiped out..."

Just as I said this, I heard the navigator stand up and report loudly to Masati:

"Your Excellency, Captain, the No. 2 UAV has lost contact..."

"Retract other fighters, the fleet stops advancing..."

Masati's order was faster than Gao Feng's response. Before Gao Feng understood what was happening, Masati stopped the fleet, and then he saw unmanned fighter jets coming from the bridge's display frequency. Return from a distance, then attach it to the outer shell of the battleship and quickly recover it.

"what happened?"

Gao Feng saw Masati's solemn expression and the other bridge officers looking as if they were facing a formidable enemy, so he finally couldn't help but ask.

"Your Majesty Commander, this is the unknown danger I'm talking about..."

Masati explained to Feng Feng with a wry smile. Seeing that Feng Feng still looked confused, she explained in detail:

"After the World Extermination War, the earth's environment has undergone subversive changes. In addition to energy nodes, there are many dangerous places. These places are like Bermuda in the previous era, which will cause the disappearance of people and warships. The disappearance environment is not the same. Shen Changzhi is known to be missing due to death wave particle radiation. Once exposed to this radiation, any living body will cause its DNA to collapse and lose life instantly. Any warship or equipment that is close to the energy maze will dissipate energy and lose its life. The most terrifying thing is not the mobility, but the loss of life energy. Unless you are lucky and happen to be on the edge, you can get out..."
