Super Biotech Empire

The Expeditionary Trade Fleet is a lone army, but it is also a team that carries all the hopes of mankind. Today is the third year since they left Terminus. They have already reached the farthest shuttle distance of the fleet. If they jump again, they will not be able to go back.

"Old Ma, let's go back. We have been staying for more than half a month. If we continue like this, we may not be able to go back." Ren Fei, the deputy captain of the expeditionary trade fleet, persuaded. Floating, if no measures are taken, it may cause riots. This is a big taboo for long-distance voyages.

Ma Yun is obviously not reconciled. Although there are a lot of official backgrounds in this trip, it is more of a resistance of some of them or a rebellion that they are unwilling to make. If they go back like this, there will be no problems. , but it will greatly damage the prestige of these people.

After all, not every businessman hopes to enter the universe to create their own country, and the most important thing is that they have already reached a deal with the empire. As long as they continue to invest in long-distance trade and open up this route, the empire will let them recruit them when they need a large number of humans in the future.

People always come first. Now the empire has a population of more than 27 billion. It looks like a lot, but there are not many in the face of the vast universe. Although these people have created a large number of markets, they are not at all in the face of intelligent and mechanized production methods. It couldn't be digested, which also led to an increasing consumption of welfare by the empire.

Therefore, the current empire needs to find a new trade area that can absorb enough excess capacity, so that it can pass on the domestic excess capacity to stabilize the welfare system.

Looking at the dark starry sky outside, Ma Yun felt a little disappointed. In fact, he also understood that it has been more than two years, and many people in the fleet are getting a little tired, even though they all know that this voyage is comparable to Magellan's voyage around the world. significance. But in the face of the fear of the unknown, no one will remain calm.

So he sighed and said, "Let's go back to the voyage."

"Order all the ships to start preparing to return." After hearing the news, Ren Fei immediately ordered a middle-aged man next to him. This is a staff officer of the Ren family serving in the army. This is indeed the chief of staff of the entire fleet.

"Yes." Although the long-distance trading fleet was established by a private commercial company, all operational regulations are carried out in the form of a military fleet, and the operators of the ships are all members of the military from various families. There are some people from the special forces of the military. It can be said that the entire fleet is composed of military personnel except for the commander.

It can be said that such a fleet should have the most combat effectiveness in the world, but no one will not feel fear in the face of an unknown career. Even soldiers who came out in the army or even in the hail of bullets are not exempt.

The long-voyage trade fleet has returned, which is good news for everyone on the fleet. Many people cheered in low voices. As for this voyage, they did not find a trading partner, which was not important to them.

In fact, this voyage was successful in terms of meaning, at least within the scope of the current detection, there is no danger, so humans or people like Ma Yun who plan to go into deep space can build a jumping base here so that they can Explore the civilization of the universe at a deeper level.

The return route is quite smooth. After all, the long-distance trade fleet will draw the surrounding star map every time it advances, so that it can find the route on the way back and make some preparations for future exploration.

However, just as they were about to reach the third jumping point, a bright spot appeared on the large screen of the radar ship in charge of remote monitoring in the fleet, and as time went on, the number of bright spots increased, and finally merged into a fleet .

The captain of the radar ship immediately reported the news to the flagship. After hearing the news, Ma Yun and the others were first surprised, then ecstatic, and finally became a little nervous.

According to the calculation of the radar ship, the route of the fleet is the current direction of the fleet. If there is no accident, it will meet the fleet in a week. This requires Ma Yun and others to make a decision. If they are determined to wait for the fleet, Then you can only wait in place, otherwise the jumping location of the fleet will be exposed, which is very fatal to humans.

But this also created a big problem at the same time, that is, if that fleet had bad intentions, the entire long-distance trading fleet might be wiped out, and no news would be spread.

But danger is often accompanied by opportunities, especially Ma Yun is still an adventurous person, so he immediately ordered: "Honghu and Lin'an immediately leave the fleet, and jump according to our original plan, and wait at the second jump point." We have a month, if we haven't come back in a month, then we will return immediately to report the harvest of this trip."

Ren Fei had thought about this situation a long time ago, so he said: "I will lead the team when I return to the fleet, and I hope the fleet can give us all the necessary supplies."

"Okay, everything is free from you." Ma Yun agreed without the slightest hesitation.

He understood that Ren Fei didn't return to the fleet because he was afraid of death, but to preserve their strength. After all, all of their generation have made the decision to go to the deep space universe, but other businessmen may give up continuing to explore after the failure of this exploration. This requires a strong person to strongly promote this matter, and currently there are not many people who can do this. Ren Fei is one of them, and he is also the one with the strongest will, so this is very important for the next work.

Because of the fear that this alien fleet would detect the third jump point, the speed of the long-distance trading fleet was very fast. The excess supplies and energy of other warships were quickly transferred to the Honghu and Lin'an, which were about to leave the fleet. Of course, everyone in the fleet did not know that the two warships were returning this time.

This is mainly to prevent the emotional collapse of everyone in the fleet. After all, they have reached the vicinity of the third jump point and are about to go home but this kind of thing happens and some people leave early. And everyone on the two battleships didn't know that they were going to return. The task they received was to continue searching nearby to see if there were other civilizations. Everyone on the ship did not have any doubts, because the excess supplies of the entire fleet were on their two battleships.
