Chapter 58 "Sixteen"

"What are you looking at, come and help me."

He yelled at Moral, who had been watching from a distance with his hips akimbo.

It will still be very difficult for one person to drag him to another position.

"What did he tell you just now, why did you cry with snot and tears?"

"Just talked about my father. You know, he does know my father."

Nalia took a deep look at me. Although she didn't ask me any more questions, she probably had a lot of questions in her heart, right?

If she takes the initiative to ask me, it is not impossible to talk to her a little bit.

"Eh!"

In the end, I didn't say anything, and then I didn't have to think about how to talk to her.

"Did you feel that the lighting inside seemed to flicker just now?"

Just after Moral and I gently lifted Lakashi to a seat, Moral suddenly snorted softly.

It seems true to say so, just now I felt that something flickered.

But this should be the supply voltage instability, right?
This kind of giant space station uses its own energy core to output energy while relying on solar power. If there are some energy fluctuations, it is normal to cause the lights to flicker just now.

……Bar?

Just when I was thinking wildly, the scene in front of me suddenly flickered again.

However, the difference from just now is that this time the light source in the entire line of sight dimmed quickly after the flicker that could be felt directly.

"Beep beep~"

In-site broadcast?

"Guning Central Control Node. Since there are high-quality fleets currently using this station as the jump destination, in order to maintain the stability of the jump destination beacons, the entire station is about to enter the high-energy calibration mode. Please take protective measures for the personnel in the station. Vehicles that are sailing please..."

Is there a fleet about to jump here?

No wonder then.

"Come on, let's go back to the boat first."

After getting affirmative answers from these two people, I turned around in a hurry and prepared to leave.

But it shouldn't matter if you put him here, right?

Forget it, I have done my best, even if there is really any problem, he can already rest in peace...

Besides, I don't seem like the kind of person who will do good things to the end.

But fortunately, this place is quite close to where our passenger ship berths, and I planned to go back to the ship to rest before, but I didn't expect to meet such a thing as Lakaxi.

But it is also strange that such a rare thing as a sailing fleet jumping will be encountered.

As we all know, the fleet under voyage jumps collectively, and the mass of all ships will participate in the jump calculation.

The greater the mass, the greater the energy required to change the state of motion, the greater the energy required to be provided by the ship performing the jump projection, and the greater the energy required to be provided at the end of the jump.

In any case, the action of forces is reciprocal.

Just like two people climbing rocks at the same time, the fat person needs to use a thicker rope, and the fixed point of the rope must be stronger.

Moreover, jumping while sailing is different from the jump that needs to be completed while moving, and it is a risky behavior.

Since one's own coordinates are moving from time to time, this will bring a very heavy burden to the computer for proofreading calculations, and even dangerous false alignment may occur.

In order to ensure the accuracy of jumping during travel, the computer will predict a position ahead of the course. Ships that need to jump before that need to complete the jump adjustment and adjust their cores to the highest energy level.

When the actual position is consistent with the position recorded by the jump navigation computer, the delivery and jump will start.

If there is a problem in this process, resulting in a deviation between the actual position and the position recorded by the navigation computer, it is very likely to jump to an uncontrollable position, and even a tragic accident of ship destruction and death.

The so-called loss is a thousand miles away.

Therefore, in order to avoid such huge potential risks and high energy consumption, generally there will be no jumping of fleet formations during navigation.

Unless... there is an emergency situation, such as escaping...

"Oh, it's really twists and turns. I didn't meet the fun ones, but I was still panting."

Moral, who sat down on his seat, snorted twice to express his dissatisfaction.

Slightly squinted eyes still glanced at Nalia who was beside me from time to time. Obviously, even now she was still worried about not being able to enter the red light district.

"Come on, just sit and wait when you're all up."

He took a cheerful look at Moral, and had to say, this guy's shriveled appearance is quite cute.

"Ah."

I don't know if it's "huh" or "um".

This guy let out a sigh of relief, and he answered me.

In fact, I really envy Gulu, who can close his eyes like this, and then have no worries and worries.

Although I thought so in my heart, but helpless, people always have to grow up... right?
The space station that enters the high-energy calibration mode usually supplies almost all the energy output by the energy core to the pulse beacon and the specific gravitational wave resonance generator, which are used to project the coordinate points of special frequencies used to construct the jumping end point.

This also means that almost all other facilities in the station may temporarily lose their energy supply.

This is also relatively dangerous for a space station operating in orbit.

Not to mention whether it will cause some confusion or accidents, just a lot of heavy machinery in operation will bring a lot of risks.

But if you really want to talk about it, there should be a backup power supply for emergency use, right?
"Woo, woo~!"

The high-frequency vibration in the space brought strong side effects, and the sound like crying began to echo in everyone's ears.

It looks like the end of the upcoming fleet jump is around here.

"This... what... ah!"

Looking at Nalia's ashen face, she opened and closed her mouth but could only hear a few fragments of words intermittently.

Shouldn't he have a clear understanding of what's going to happen now?
On the other hand, Moral, who was always bluffing, closed his eyes calmly and opened his mouth wide to reduce the impact of the huge sonic boom on the eardrums.

First comment, this is the correct approach.

I can only do this, because I have to free my hands to cover Gollum's ears.

That's right, you can't demand that a person who has been staying in the small dark room on the ship have a clear understanding of the situation on the ground or in the facility.

"open mouth!"

"what!?"

"Let you open your mouth and lean back!"

"Yes! Come on!"

"Don't! Cover! Ears!"

"Okay! Close your eyes!"

Although she was very ignorant, Nalia still had a lot of trust in me. She opened her mouth wide and closed her eyes and leaned on the back of the seat according to my request while shouting and pretending.

Of course, if you choose to open your mouth, don't cover your ears anymore, otherwise the sound waves from your mouth can also act on your eardrums.

"Wash!"

coming……

Even though he had closed his eyes and even pulled down the partition on the porthole, he could still feel that the dazzling light attacked him fiercely for a moment.

"Boom!"

Immediately, the violent impact and the strong sonic boom pushed my consciousness, which I was trying to control, to the edge of laxity.

But fortunately, this kind of impact came very quickly, and it went away quite quickly, but just such a few seconds made me feel so long.

Although there was still some tinnitus, thanks to the protective preparations made in advance, I saw Nalia with a terrified face and Moral who was slightly confused opened their eyes and looked at me.

That's right, although we often encountered ships jumping into the station in the previous Imperial Navy facilities, but this time the jumping end is so close to us, isn't it the first time?

I have to say that the energy overflow produced at this time is really quite outrageous. Although I have been prepared in my heart, when this kind of thing happens in front of my eyes, I can only helplessly accept that I am so small This sad fact.

Other than that, there is no other way.

"brush!"

Nalia anxiously opened the closed porthole partition and looked in the direction of the source of the sonic boom.

I don't know if she is curious about the ship that jumped into the field, or is she worried?
I'm worried that they will catch me...

However, she may be too concerned about herself. This identity is actually just to accompany those real crown princes to run away. Even if they really came to arrest her, it is not worth such a big fight.

But she looked like this, although she didn't say it out of her mouth, but in fact she was still picked up in her heart all the time, right?

The more the so-called freedom is at your fingertips, the easier it is to become restless. This must have a strong relationship with her expectations.

However, it is also possible that it is simply because of the harsh environment just now that the mood was damaged very easily.

"It's okay, and then we only have to wait for the time to end before we can leave here."

It's quite possible to wait for a longer delay, but...

You know I've never been very good at comforting others, but I should pat her on the back to make her feel a little more at ease, let's just comfort her like this?
"Well, thank you..."

I don't know if I saw something, or because my consolation worked, Nalia slowly sat back in her original position, and squeezed out an ugly smile at me.

Looking in the direction of her previous line of sight, a huge and hideous tear ran through the right side of an imperial navy warship.

"It looks like a cruiser."

Moral also poked his head over and exchanged glances with me.

Is it a model I haven't seen before, is it a cutting-edge ship?
But it's hard to say, after all, in the previous second-tier facilities, apart from the docking of the ships belonging to the colonial fleet, there are basically few other types of ships that will enter.

"It seems to be seriously injured."

"……Oh, yes……"

　Due to work reasons, I can't fully update every day, but I will still keep writing, thank you for your support!
