Galaxy Technology Empire

The Orion Cantilever - the border of the ninth star cluster.

This place is nearly 10,000 light-years away from the solar system. It is a truly wild area of ​​the Milky Way, if it were not for the completion of the construction of the ninth gate of Orion.

There is no possibility of development in this area. After all, Explorer 2 has traveled more than 90 years and has just exceeded the 10,000 light-year journey.

However, with the space gate, things are much simpler. The alliance has divided the Orion cantilever area into sections. The cantilever is divided into star clusters with the solar system as the core and extending to both sides.

For example, the Orion cantilever region where the solar system is located - the first star cluster, the Orion cantilever region near the core of the Milky Way - the second star cluster, and the fourth star cluster. On average, there is a star cluster every 2,000 light-years in length.

Among them, the fourth star cluster in the Orion cantilever area is the Alliance territory closest to the core of the Milky Way, and it is also the area where the Alliance army focuses on defense. After all, it is less than 15,000 light years away from the nearest border of the Kronos Empire.

If the Kronos Empire paid attention to the cantilever area, it would have discovered traces of the Alliance long ago. However, fortunately, the civilizations in the core area of ​​the galaxy generally despised the rubes in the cantilever area.

Unless the Alliance continues to expand into the core area of ​​the galaxy, civilizations in the core areas such as the Kronos Empire and the Ancient Blue Federation will not discover the existence of the Alliance so quickly.

The alliance has no idea of ​​entering the core area now. As the first centenary plan is about to be completed, the second centenary plan is also being planned.

The ninth star cluster in the Orion cantilever region is the largest among the seven star clusters in the Orion cantilever region. [Note: The Sixth Star Cluster and the Eighth Star Cluster are the side close to the core area of ​​the Milky Way. They only have establishments but no actual rule. ]

This is a typical area where birds have nothing to do, and even the number of native civilizations has dropped sharply.

Near the first star cluster in the Orion cantilever region, there are still many native civilizations, but when it comes to the ninth star cluster, it is common for hundreds of light years not to see a living planet.

In the area of ​​the ninth star cluster, a total of 6 life planets have been discovered so far, none of which exceeds the first-level civilization. In other words, the civilizations here are all observed civilizations under the protection law.

Even the alliance's pioneering groups here are pitifully small. In the entire star cluster, there are only 33 exploited galaxies, with a total population of less than 200 million people.

…

The ice crystal galaxy on the border is one of the border outposts of the 181st Army.

A base and a squadron are all that this outpost has, and the total number of soldiers is less than 8,000.

The defense area they are responsible for is about 300 light years in radius.

Ost Vincent, the commander of the base and commander of the squadron, was bored to the point of boredom.

"Lin, when do you think this day will end?"

Chief of Staff Lin Yingqi spread his hands: "It depends on the situation, but there is no hope in the next 20 to 30 years. The alliance has no plans to enter the core area of ​​the galaxy for the time being, and there is nothing to do elsewhere."

Oster opened his game account.

[Galactic Hegemony—Region 3, Player: Iron-Blooded Soul 14 wins, 3 draws, 11 losses...]

"Your winning rate is too bad, isn't it?" Lin Yingqi joked.

Oster looked at Lin Yingqi with disdain: "It's just like how high your winning rate is."

"Haha, at least a little taller than you." Lin Yingqi replied in a hurry.

The two are planning to play a game of Galaxy Clash, but in many things, it happens when you don't want it to come, and when you want it to come, it doesn't move at all.

A communication was directly inserted into the two people's holographic computers: "Commander Vincent, Chief of Staff Lin, we have encountered an emergency situation that needs you to handle."

"Hold the grass..." Oster quickly saved the file, and then asked seriously: "What's the matter?"

"We discovered three spacecraft during routine inspections. This is preliminary detection information." The leader of the radar team quickly replied.

"We'll be there right away." Lin Yingqi put on his military uniform jacket and headed to the command room not far away.

Auster also reacted and quickly followed.

In the command room, many soldiers were busy. As soon as Austin came in, he asked: "Where is the other party?"

"It appeared suddenly in a void about 246 light-years away from our ice galaxy." The leader of the radar team replied with a solemn expression.

"Appeared suddenly?" Lin Yingqi's eyes suddenly froze, and he quickly continued to ask: "Are there any other characteristics?"

"Three hours before the three spacecraft suddenly appeared, an abnormal gravitational fluctuation appeared in the area. It is estimated to be a celestial body such as a wormhole."

"Do wormholes still exist?"

"It's gone."

Lin Yingqi quickly browsed the details. The term ephemeral wormhole represents space technology in a certain sense. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the other party encountered a natural wormhole.

Huh? The jump speed of the spacecraft is about 24 times the speed of light?

"Lin, what do you think?"

"Two possibilities. First, the spacecraft of the fourth-level civilization opened a temporary wormhole; second, someone encountered a temporary wormhole. The second possibility is more likely, but it does not rule out that the other party is pretending to be a pig. The possibility of eating a tiger." Lin Yingqi analyzed.

Oster looked at the star map and said: "How about testing the opponent? We can apply to the army headquarters for a Predator-class warship to come over for support."

Lin Yingqi nodded: "Just do it."

The two quickly applied for support from the 181st Group Army headquarters for the Predator-class warships. The 181st Group Army had a total of two Predator-class warships.

Less than ten minutes.

In the void outside the ice crystal galaxy, a spaceship rushed out of a dark circle. It was the Predator-class battleship coming to support.

Oster and Lin Yingqi explained the situation in a short manner, and the Predator-class battleship immediately took action and jumped near the three alien spacecraft.

…

Three spaceships are sailing.

But it was obvious that the owner of the spacecraft was not in a good mood, or was in a terrible mood.

"Director of the Japanese King, our location has been initially determined." A dog-headed alien reported hurriedly.

The Japanese King Becai said feebly: "Where are we?"

The dog-headed alien replied helplessly: "On the second arm of the ancient blue system, it is about 26,100 light distances (about 31,000 light years) from the core area."

"What? 26,100 light distances? It's over..." Sun King Bei was desperate. With the speed of their spaceship, it would take at least a thousand years to return to the core of the Milky Way.

The other dog-headed aliens also looked depressed. Obviously the distance was too far and it was impossible for them to return to the core area in a short time.

"Damn Black Snake Pirates, if it weren't for them, we wouldn't have rushed into that unstable wormhole in a panic." Riwang Bei opened his mouth and cursed loudly.

A dog-headed alien rolled his eyes and said: "Director Sun King, it is not impossible to return to the core area quickly."

"Are you kidding? We don't have..." Sun King Bei had just finished speaking when he suddenly thought of something: "The Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates!"

"The Japanese King is in charge, Gao Jian." The dog-headed alien flattered him.

Japanese King Becai also knew that the Space Dark Matter Pirates' Predator spacecraft could allow them to quickly return to the core area. He thought for a while: "But this matter needs to be discussed with the headquarters..."

Didi didi...

A series of urgent sirens sounded.

Thank you everyone for your support and rewards! (ω｀)
