Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station.

Chapter 445 Queen
The appearance of the Queen's carriage instantly raised the threat posed by the survivors to several levels.

It can even be said that the threat posed by a single Queen's battleship is greater than that of the nano fleets whose numbers are growing wildly.

Fortunately, the anti-jump devices commonly found in various military galaxies are still in use in the Gaia galaxy.

As long as the design logic of the ships still follows the normal rules of physics, they will not be able to directly jump into the interior of the galaxy.

But it is possible to jump to the edge of the galaxy.

The people in the Gaia galaxy still have a little time.

It was simply a fantasy to ask the Queen, who was the most powerful psychic known so far, to delay. Huihuang also changed his mind and said, "I plan to have our personnel evacuate the Gaia system first, and then use other means to reach the destination after the system jump is completed."

The director of the ship institute, who was very sensitive to the speed and efficiency of the ship's jump, immediately said, "It's too late, right? The jump of those nano fleets will take at most one minute. Even if the population of our colony is not large, it is not possible to gather them all in one minute."

"But everyone present can evacuate first. Your safety is more important."

Lu Kang, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly retorted: "The colony won't be important without us. I don't want to leave the institute. There is no place in the world safer than here. If this place falls, the empire will follow us sooner or later."

"You can't be so pessimistic."

Tian Zhan's soothing spiritual energy waves with the characteristics of Gaia and the Fairy Tree filled the room, allowing everyone to calm down in the face of this crisis and treat it with a normal mind.

"As long as people are alive, everything can be explained. Besides, I don't believe the director will not come back."

"As long as he can come back, everything we lost can be restored to us."

The ship's director suddenly whispered to Tian Zhan, "Is your daughter still in the colony?"

Tian Zhan's daughter has been running around the Gaia galaxy during this period.

Since she was still in preschool age, Tian Zhan didn't arrange any preschool classes for her. She was often sent to various environments with a strong academic atmosphere to play.

As time went by, Tian Zhan's daughter became most interested in spaceships, so she had a close relationship with the director of the ship institute.

The director would naturally be more concerned about her at this time.

"No, I had already agreed with my wife a few days ago to send our daughters back home, and then find a chance to bring them back. I didn't expect this to happen suddenly..."

The ship's director nodded slightly and spoke his mind: "I'm not going to leave. I'm already an old man."

"My thoughts are the same as Tian Zhan's. If we can't hold on here, the empire may not be able to withstand it either."

"But I still advise young people to leave. You still have a future."

After the director finished speaking, other management also expressed their opinions.

Half of the colonial leaders were willing to stay and perish with the colony, or to save their people and lose their land.

In the end, only Wu An had not yet expressed his attitude.

Facing the gazes from others, Wu An raised his head and asked expressionlessly, "Glorious, how long will it take for the galaxy jump engine to start?"

"One minute and thirty-one seconds."

"Has the survivors' fleet arrived?"

"The Vanguard Fleet will arrive in forty-three seconds, and the Queen's flagship will arrive in one minute and eleven seconds."

"Twenty seconds... enough time for the Queen to crush the entire galaxy."

Wu An sighed.

"I'm going to stop the Queen."

"what?"

Wu An's words elicited a unanimous response from the colonial management.

The Queen's ability had already been determined when Chen Ming and the Queen's remaining arm collided.

Even Chen Ming might not be able to defeat him, let alone Wu An.

No matter who tries to stop the Queen, it would be the same as committing suicide.

But Wu An had made up his mind.

The arrival of the Queen is an inevitable outcome. If this outcome cannot be changed, this galaxy will sooner or later fall into the hands of the Queen.

In his view, the key to the problem is not the galaxy itself.

He actually had the same idea as Hetian Zhan, that it is better to be alive than to be dead, and there is a future as long as you are alive.

But the key issue that made him stay was the information about Chen Ming in the colony.

According to what he learned in the Chen Ming Colony these days, the colony's management system was modeled after the empire's management system.

In this management system model, not all information is stored in the network connected to Huihuang.

There are also many documents that are stored in paper form in order to prevent losses caused by problems with various storage units.

There will definitely be information about Chen Ming in these files.

Everyone knows Chen Ming’s current situation, he is trapped in the scarlet infected space.

No one dared to investigate too much and actively destroy the stable rift to prevent negative impact on Chen Ming who might be inside it.

But once the Queen learns the news, she will definitely dare to do so.

It can even be said that there is a 100% chance that they will choose to actively destroy the rift.

And now there is only more than a minute left.

It was brilliant enough to erase all the information about Chen Ming in the various storage units he was connected to, but it was definitely not enough to destroy all the paper documents related to Chen Ming.

If it cannot be destroyed, it means it is destined to be discovered by the survivors.

That rift is destined to be destroyed.

Coupled with those people in the colony who might not be able to evacuate, the already tilted balance in Wu An's heart was pushed down further.

That's why Wu An made this decision.

He knew that with his abilities, he could not compete with the Queen, and could not defeat the Queen. Only Chen Ming could do it.

Only if Chen Ming survives and comes back alive, there is a chance that the Queen can be dealt with.

This galaxy must be protected.

Wu An had no intention of seeking other people's opinions.

He ignored everyone's words of persuasion and said directly to Huihuang: "I know you must have mobilized the Zerg fleet, but the Zerg fleet is no different from ants in front of the Queen. Only I am qualified to stand in front of the Queen."

"And it's brilliant. If it was Chen Ming, he would never let anyone stay here and take risks. No one except him would need to face the Queen directly."

"I know."

Huihuang said as if he had already made a plan: "So I just want to ask what you think. Whether you want to leave or stay, the final result will not change."

Brilliant spiritual energy fluctuations filled the room.

It once again replicated Chen Ming's spiritual power, wrapping everyone except Wu An in metallic liquid.

All members of the colonial management gradually disappeared in the liquid metal.

Only Tian Zhan's figure lingered for a while before leaving completely.

They will be sent to the Empire, which will be safe at least for the time being.

At this moment, the afterglow cores working in other galaxies around the Gaia and Origin galaxies were also forcibly taken away from their work places and all unloaded and evacuated.

As for all the people in the Gaia and Origin galaxies, they were all enveloped in the metallic liquid at this moment.

Hundreds of thousands of people were gathered together and driven by psychic power to the empire.

Wu An, who was staying alone at the place, clearly felt the spiritual energy blooming everywhere.

"Do you still have this ability?"

"I just learned it not long ago." Wu An did not ask Huihuang how he learned it. He was more concerned about the nature of this psychic power: "I remember that the teleportation effect of Chen Ming's psychic power relies on the scarlet dimension..."

Huihuang immediately understood what Wu An meant and said, "I can't enter the Scarlet Dimension. I don't really have this psychic power. If I enter the Scarlet Dimension, the redundant data brought by the Scarlet Dimension will instantly block my consciousness."

"Have you tried it?"

"Yes."

"I stayed in the Scarlet Dimension for 13.94 seconds. It took me hours to completely clear the redundant data. During this process, I was unable to find any trace of him."

Wu An shook his head regretfully and asked, "Can you send me to the Queen later?"

"Okay, but let me try it first."

Time passed by minute by minute.

Forty-three seconds after Huihuang gave the judgment time.

At the edge of the galaxy, the waves of the jump accompanied the survivors' nano fleet to arrive smoothly.

What they have to face is the metal sky that appears at the edge of the Gaia galaxy.

The psychic energy fluctuations in the colony control center were so strong that it seemed as if Chen Ming had arrived in person and used means to block the earliest nano fleet that had arrived via the jump.

Energy weapons, live ammunition weapons and missile weapons were instantly sprinkled to one side of the sky as if they were free.

Live ammunition and missiles are not a problem for the sky curtain. Any object made of metal will be controlled by psychic energy and transformed into part of the sky curtain the moment it touches the sky curtain.

Although the energy weapons of these nano fleets far exceed those of the Empire's fleet in output power and actual destructive power, they still cannot directly penetrate the sky curtain.

The nano fleet was blocked outside the galaxy.

Thirty-eight seconds passed in a flash.

There are still twenty seconds left before the jump engine is fully started, but the Queen's carriage also arrives at this moment.

The gorgeously decorated battleship appeared in front of the sky, and the main weapon in front of the ship fired a black spherical substance towards the sky with great simplicity.

The pitch-black substance seemed to be spreading during the launch process, leaving behind an equally pitch-black trail. The space affected by the trail seemed to be torn apart.

That was definitely not a black hole, but something much more terrifying.

The brilliant psychic energy fluctuations were completely unable to act on the area affected by the dark substance.

It was as if these dark substances did not belong to this world at all.

After only three seconds, the sky was completely shattered.

The Queen's carriage immediately made a short-distance jump towards the galaxy.

If nothing is done, the galaxy will be destroyed in the next moment.

“辉煌。”

Wu An took the initiative to call out and at the same time told Huihuang a coordinate.

The brilliant psychic energy fluctuations completely enveloped Wu An.

The next moment.

Wu An disappeared from the space station and appeared at the coordinates he mentioned, inside the Queen's carriage.

Luxurious insect palace-style decorations filled the interior of the spacecraft.

This doesn't look like a battleship at all, but rather like a palace.

On the throne at the deepest part of the palace, sat a woman dressed in gorgeous feathered clothes, her eyes closed and her face slightly angry.

Seemed to be offended by Wu An's arrival.

She is the Queen.

The biggest difference between her and any other survivors is that she has normal skin, just like a human queen sitting on the throne.

However, Wu An knew that she was not the queen of mankind, but rather the exterminator of mankind.

At this moment, he could clearly feel his spiritual nerves trembling, and the sense of danger had completely enveloped him.

But he knew what he was here for.

In the space directly in front of the Queen's carriage, the phantom of the Psychic City in Wu An's consciousness space suddenly appeared. It was the embodiment of Wu An's power.

The power of the mental tremor that exhausted all of his energy when he released the power should have spread to the entire star field, causing all living beings in the entire star field to die in this tremor.

But at this moment, this force was firmly confined by Wu An within the spacecraft, allowing this wave that could destroy all conscious life to fill the entire spacecraft.

The queen sitting on the throne suddenly disappeared.

A force that Wu An was completely unable to resist tore apart the mental barrier he had set up around him.

The Queen appeared in front of Wu An, and her seemingly frail arm had passed through his chest, holding Wu An's heart in her hand.

She opened her eyes slightly, only to see that her eyes were not the eyes of a living being, but were filled with endless nanomachines.

At this moment, countless pieces of information seemed to flow through her eyes. Her movements were slightly slow as she pulled her arm out of Wu An's chest.

Wu An's body slowly fell down.

Countless nanorobots flowed out from the hidden corners and submerged Wu An.
Wu An's heart was sealed with a special material made by nanorobots and sent to the display room on the spacecraft, becoming the Queen's trophy.

The queen also sat back on the throne again.

Wu An only delayed for twenty seconds.

But that's enough.

The massive transition fluctuations that filled the entire galaxy could not be concealed at all, and any means of stopping it were too late to leave the Gaia galaxy behind.

The galaxy-level jump engine was fully activated, bringing the entire galaxy to a corner of a certain location.

The queen tilted her head to look inside the galaxy, raised the hand that had just pierced Wu An's chest and pointed into the galaxy.

The next moment, everything belonging to Chen Ming and what the Queen pointed to, except for the galaxy-level jump engine device, all disappeared here.

After sending away everything in the galaxy, the jump engine devices scattered throughout the galaxy immediately self-destructed.

The chaotic waves brought about by self-destruction completely disrupt the waves of galaxy jump, leaving no possibility of tracking.

But at this moment, the queen opened her slightly eyes and only looked in the direction she pointed.

There... there is a wormhole floating quietly.

The Queen's fingertips slightly deflected, and the wormhole also changed its position along with her fingertips.

A nanocolossus quickly leapt over and followed the Queen and the wormhole she took away to a nearby galaxy.

There are still some traces of resource development on the planets in the galaxy.

But that doesn't seem to matter.

The nanocolossus that followed the Queen released a nanoplague directly onto the planet, completely assimilating it.

After the Queen fixed the wormhole near a star in the galaxy, her vehicle passed through the wormhole and arrived at the other end.

The other end of the wormhole is located at a place more than a dozen extreme distance jumps away from the empire.

Not too close, but not too far either.

The Queen stood up and looked through the porthole in front of her car, as if she could see the empire in the distance.

More and more nano fleets are emerging from the wormhole and gathering behind the Queen's car.

Just waiting for her order.
