Counterfeit Hero

After passing the space jump point, the [Bolan Rose] has entered normal. Before arriving at the next jump point, the fleet will travel at the fourth universe speed of 120 miles per second through nebulae, dust, asteroids, and boulders. Barrier zones in complex gravity and radiation environments.

Only by passing through the obstacle area and reaching the safe jump channel marked in the navigator database can the spacecraft start the gravity jump and carry out jump navigation. Using gravitational acceleration to perform high-speed jumps in obstacle areas or unknown airspace passages usually results in shipwrecks and casualties.

And even sailing on the jump channel and sailing in the public star field is different from the regular interstellar channel where the channel is regularly cleaned, interstellar routes are mapped and navigation data is updated.

Here, no one monitors the waterway, and no one tells you which comet or other thing is blocking your waterway in this constantly moving universe. There is no one to clean up these threats and formulate safer and more reasonable interstellar navigation routes. You can only rely on yourself for everything.

However, with modern interstellar navigation technology, as long as we do not encounter a newly generated black hole or encounter extreme threats such as planetary collisions or explosions at close range, most small obstacles can rely on the ship's radar, interstellar jump channel map and unmanned pathfinder. , is completely avoidable.

Thirty hours after entering the first jump, the fleet passed through three obstacle areas in a row, and after passing through two jump channels, finally arrived at the jump point of the bo galaxy. After several days of trekking, the fleet arrived at the entrance to the third public galaxy jump point.

Such a jumping point. The fleet has eleven more to go.

For many, interstellar voyages involve being stuck on a ship for long periods of time. Undoubtedly boring. However, for Tian Xingjian, he seemed very interested.

Especially in the first few days, Fatty found that he was the brightest star on the ship. Those students who were sent for exchanges at the same time and the officers and soldiers on the ship made no secret of their excitement when they saw their idol.

The fat man was also excited. Are you actually an idol? ! This is fucking amazing! The fat man, whose vanity is endlessly satisfied, diligently signed autographs for everyone every day, and his hands became weak.

In addition to signing autographs for people, Fatty's favorite thing to do every day is. Just dangling in front of people and accepting compliments. Even at night, he would ask Karl, who lived in the same rest cabin, to sing his praises several times.

After enjoying themselves like this for several days, when people's enthusiasm began to fade, especially when the fat man forced the big-headed Karl to flatter him continuously, causing Karl to vomit, feel sick and foam at the mouth several times, he himself began to get tired of it.

Boring voyage. It seemed to swallow up everyone's spirit. As time passed, most people on the ship seemed a little depressed and uninterested in anything. But Fatty is different. He is born to find interesting things for himself in such an environment. As soon as he turned around, he was fascinated by the new destroyer he was riding on.

Although Fatty had ridden on warships in the past, they were just old-fashioned ships with little research value. Moreover, it is usually carried in a transport cabin. Airdrops come and go. Time is also very short.

This time. During this nearly month-long journey, I was able to get close contact with a new destroyer. To the fat guy studying Casper's work log. Just happens to be an excellent learning opportunity.

If there is anything, it can represent the space age. undoubtedly. These are the ships that sail in the vast universe.

In the Age of Great Exploration, humans used various space ships to leap out of the Milky Way and extend the footprints of human civilization into the depths of the universe.

During that great history, explorers drove spaceships and rushed into interstellar jumping points with uncertain futures one after another. Some succeeded, and returned with a scarred spaceship, bringing back their discoveries, becoming rich and famous overnight. And some, along with their ships, remain in the vast universe forever. Become part of the cosmic body.

Until now, in many remote public galaxies, you can still encounter some shipwrecks by chance. Some of these debris are floating there quietly, becoming a symbol, receiving the attention of the ships passing by the waterway, while some are wandering around in the universe. It became the legendary ghost ship. Every few years, or decades, people can see them appear briefly and then disappear into the vast depths of the universe.

Becoming a battleship captain who travels across the universe is the ideal of many people in this era since childhood. For curious humans, the deep universe, the vast space, and the legends of famous explorers in history are always full of temptations. .

In this era of war, the ridiculously beautiful uniforms of the Space Force, the huge ships gliding in the silent universe, the dazzling main gun salvos in battle, and the elite team that was strictly selected and cultivated are identity. A symbol of glory.

Fatty actually wanted to apply for the space fleet at first. Because of the awesome uniform and the treatment that is much higher than that of the army. To this end, he memorized almost all the structural drawings of warships and civilian ships that he could see in the mechanical training camp. He has a thorough understanding of the ship's structure, power, weapons, radar and other systems.

However, in the end he did not board the ship;

The 5th Armored Marine Division. The reason is that this guy's size allows him to squeeze into a small escape hatch in an emergency.

It hurts one's pride so damn much.

With the resentment of being expelled from the fleet before, and the need to study Casper's work log, he hung up two Purple Emblem Medals of Freedom and ran around in every cabin on the destroyer.

Of course, even for a Federation hero, such behavior is not welcome on a battleship.

"Hey! What is this?" Fatty asked curiously, standing in the almost spotless power cabin, looking at the huge four-link gravity acceleration engine in the middle of the cabin.

"This is a new type of four-link gravity acceleration engine. Colonel." A second lieutenant on duty in the power cabin replied expressionlessly.

The power compartment is the core area of ​​the cruiser. Without special approval, let alone the passengers on the warship, even the active officers and soldiers on the ship. You cannot enter casually. However, this fat man barged in with two Purple Emblem Medals of Freedom pinned to his chest. He looked around looking like a curious baby.

no way. The second lieutenant could only send someone to notify the captain, and at the same time follow the fat man step by step, blocking his curious eyes and random steps without leaving any trace.

"Hey, what is this?" The fat man took a few steps and asked.

The second lieutenant was stunned: "What?"

"That's it, that's the big guy." The fat man gestured.

The second lieutenant walked to the fat man's angle and looked at his hand: "Colonel. This is the quadruple gravity acceleration engine!"

"Oh!" The fat man scratched his head in confusion, looked at the engine from another angle, and asked, "Looking at it this way, is it still a four-link gravity acceleration engine?"

The second lieutenant collapsed. What's wrong with this fat man? If you look at it from a different angle, it's not the same engine.

"Eh. Something is different this time? Don't tell me this is still a quadruple gravity acceleration engine!"

"..."

When Captain Chekov hurried over after receiving the report, the fat man was already gone. In the power cabin, there was only a second lieutenant with a dull look on his face.

Although he successfully stopped Fatty from looking around, the price was too high. It's a nightmare to be asked curious questions by a superior who looks at the same thing from different angles a hundred or eighty times and still has to answer. The ensign, who was in a daze, doubted that if the fat man asked him a few more times, he would rush into the kitchen, pick up the kitchen knife and come out crying and chopping.

From that day on, Fatty began his research work. Every day, he either drills in the walls of line pipes or squats next to the return pipe network of the energy system. He held his chin in a daze. Otherwise. Just circle around the main engine, changing the angle. While looking at the second lieutenant on duty.

Fatty's tossing. The originally quiet and boring voyage of more than 500 officers and soldiers on the entire warship and more than 40 students who went to Chakna for exchange and study suddenly became very lively. The students were watching the fun. The officers and soldiers on the ship were all on tenterhooks.

I heard that this fat man has driven several people crazy!

…………

Just watching it a few days ago, the destroyer soldiers didn't think anything about it. Who knew, later on, something even more devastating would happen.

This fat man actually took action. I put an automatic repair arm on my arm and started to catch and disassemble it. After disassembling it, I understood it and then reinstalled it.

Radar, fire control, energy turret, main gun, torpedo room, missile launcher, engine nozzle, control system, everything has not escaped the clutches of this fat man! I often look at a piece of equipment for a long time, then roll up my sleeves and start taking it apart!

This is not a toy, it is actually a new destroyer that is sailing! Can this be taken apart and played with?

But this fat man is a federal hero and cannot be beaten or scolded. Even the captain's ban had no effect on him. With his two Purple Emblem Medals of Freedom, not to mention the cabin of a small destroyer, even the confidential archives room, strategic conference room, and command room of the headquarters, he can travel smoothly.

If you insist on blocking him, then you must be mentally prepared to be teased by him. This fat man has endless tricks. He asks the same thing a hundred or eighty times, which is just a trivial matter. He takes naked photos of you when you are not paying attention, cheats at cards to win your money and then coerces you, spreads rumors about your sexual orientation, and even steals the underwear of a female soldier to frame you. Even this hero can do it! .

Is this really a federal hero?

Many people were still kept in the dark. At least, the first thing the person who was driven crazy did to do was to tear off the fat man's signature!

The most troublesome person is Colonel Chekov, the captain of the destroyer "Blue Rose".

As a veteran who has experienced many battles, he has been promoted step by step from the fire observer of the cruiser USS Tranquility Shark of the Fourth Mixed Fleet of the Federation to the positions of gunner, gunner, fire control officer, and combat commander. He has dedicated half of his life to the destroyer of space and battleships. Captain, how could Chekov endure receiving dozens of reports a day, all about the fat man entering the power cabin, the radar room, the energy shield generating cabin, and the women's locker room.

It was just a matter of looking at it and disobeying his own injunction. What made Chekov crazy was that the fat man dared to dismantle the equipment with his nose in his face! Talk to him yourself, and he even calls it an advanced transformation of the battleship.

If it weren't for every time this guy finished it, the damage management team would inspect the equipment

, no damage was found, and the ship's central computer failed and the system was silent. Chekov had long since arrested the fat man as a saboteur!

For Chekov, battleships were his life. To put it in a more vivid metaphor. This new destroyer is the envy of many space fleet captains. It's his wife!

I hear people report dozens of times every day that their wives have been touched by others. You can imagine how Chekov felt after looking over and touching his whole body.

No matter what kind of fucking hero this fat guy is. Anyway, Chekov doesn’t like him anymore! For several days, Chekov was waiting for an opportunity. When the fat man broke some part, he would be imprisoned for sabotaging military equipment. Release it when it reaches Chakna!

"Report to Captain, Colonel Tian Xingjian has entered the power cabin again." The chief engineer ran to Chekov and reported: "He is dismantling the power output lead inverter."

"What?" Chekov was startled, the power output lead inverter. It is a key part of the battleship's power system to adjust the power of the main jet at the tail, control the speed and perform emergency evasion in battle. How can this thing be touched casually?

"It's a backup system," the chief engineer explained.

"Oh." Chekov breathed a sigh of relief involuntarily. Immediately, his face turned livid and he said: "Can't this idiot stop for a while? ... Ask the maintenance department to send someone to watch and don't let him damage the backup system. That is our life-saving thing!"

"He called..." The chief engineer lowered his head: "The people in the maintenance department were kicked out by him."

"Kicked out?! In my battleship, he kicked my people out?!" Chekov could no longer control his emotions. Roaring: "What on earth does this fat man want to do?!"

"Colonel Tian said..." The chief engineer looked at Chekov cautiously and said, "He is doing a high-tech job, and you cannot let people learn skills secretly."

"Damn it!" Chekov felt like his head was about to explode: "He's tearing apart our things everywhere without letting us see them, to prevent us from secretly learning his techniques?!... The most ridiculous thing is, you guys Just let him get blasted out like that?!"

In front of the furious captain, the chief engineer didn't want to nod. but. But he could only nod.

"I still don't believe it!" Chekov stood up from the command seat on the bridge and walked towards the power cabin.

Watching the livid-faced Chekov rushing through the corridor of the ship toward the power cabin in a cloud. There are no restaurants along the way. Recreation room, reading room or training cabin. Everyone in the rest cabin was shocked.

"What happened?" Everyone looked at each other: "What did the fat man do again?"

"Go and have a look. Who placed the bet on the power cabin?"

"I made the bet. If you bet, two of you will go crazy! Let one!... If three of you go crazy, I'll take the money."

"I didn't get out of the power cabin. I was betting on driving Captain Chekov crazy."

"..."

When a dozen people, including Helen, followed Chekov and rushed to the power cabin. The fat man just put the cover of the semi-cylindrical lead frequency converter on. Clap your hands. A look of success.

"Colonel Tian!" Chekov rushed to the fat man and said angrily: "What on earth do you want to do? If you don't understand. I can tell you that this is the latest Crow-class destroyer built by the Federation, costing 640 million Le Yuan, it took a year to build, and all the weapons and components embody the Federation’s most cutting-edge technology! Do you think such a warship, used to defend the country, is a toy that you can disassemble at any time?”

As soon as Chekov's words came out, the students who were watching the excitement suddenly felt that this fat man was a bit too much. For these warriors, the battleship is the guarantee for their survival and the weapon for their battle! .

And the fat man, who was messing around in the battleship as an army officer, had he considered the feelings of the officers and soldiers of the battleship, and had he cared about the already weak national force of the federation? What on earth did he want to do?

Everyone's eyes were focused on Fatty.

The fat man said with great grievance: "Colonel Chekov, I have told you a long time ago. I am helping to transform the battleship to make it more combat effective. Although it is a new battleship that integrates cutting-edge technology, in many designs , all have deficiencies, or there is room for improvement in performance.”

"Don't do this to me!" Chekov said angrily: "You are from the Army. Do you think you know more about battleships than we do? What kind of transformation? Just rely on the data and data you gave to the maintenance department that no one can understand. Drawings? You are committing treason by messing around like this!"

Helen looked at the fat man with complicated emotions. She didn't know why this federal hero was such a fat man who behaved inexplicably. These days, she has been secretly observing Fatty's every move, and she sees all Fatty's actions.

Treason may not be mentioned, but this fat man will never be a federal hero!

"Treason?..." The fat man was stunned by Chekhov's big hat. He was about to speak. Suddenly, the red warning light on the bulkhead quickly turned in a circle, and then a sharp and piercing siren sounded all over the place. The entire destroyer. At the same time, the bridge intelligence officer's shrill voice came over the radio.

"Enemy attack!"

.
