Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 407: Hiding in the East XZ
The four patrol ships first arrived near the star Acarius. Although the "Xinghai" had lowered its orbital altitude and hid in the atmosphere of the star Acarius, relying on its strong detection capabilities, it was still able to obtain external information. Spotted the massive fleet following the four patrol ships.As the distance shortened, Allen was able to make a rough judgment based on the original energy fluctuations generated by the enemy ship.

In this huge fleet, there are at least ten SSS-class warships, and more warships are outside Aaron's detection area.

Obviously, this is a real capital fleet.

Among the first four patrol ships to arrive, three entered the orbit of the Acarius star, and released a large number of detection equipment before reaching the synchronous orbit, and the other remained about 1000 million kilometers away from the Acarius star. The place, presumably responsible for remote surveillance.

The biggest threat to the "Xinghai" is not the four patrol ships, but the detectors it released.

In fact, these detectors are genetically modified silicon beasts.While the patrol ships would not venture into the atmosphere of Acarius, the probes released would certainly do so.If it is just to search the orbital space of Acarius star, there is no need to use the detector at all.

Looking at the fast-moving light spots on the projection screen, Yang Yi frowned.

Although for silicon-based life, a giant planet like Acarius is considered a hopeless situation, because the temperature is too low, let alone ordinary silicon beasts, even warriors with original energy converters will not be able to survive. Will venture into the atmosphere.If there is no energy converter, it will freeze after entering the atmosphere.Because the warships of the Silicon Charm Alliance are also silicon beasts, it is also very dangerous to enter the atmosphere of Acarius.

However, for a one-time use probe, the low temperature environment on Acarius is obviously not a problem.

Even after entering the atmosphere, these detectors will "failure" soon, but certainly not immediately, as long as they can survive for a while, even if it is only a few minutes, it is enough to complete the mission.As long as there are enough detectors, the Acarius star can be searched.

In the picture, those light spots are still increasing.

The "Xinghai" was able to discover these detectors because all the detectors produced original energy fluctuations.Although it is not from the original energy converter, after all, the Silicon Charm Alliance will not equip the one-time-use detectors with the original energy converter, but from the original energy storage device, but it is enough to make these detectors in the atmosphere of the star Acarius. survived for a few minutes, enough to make it to the liquid hydrogen ocean of Acarius.

"Major?"

"I saw it."

When Allen reminded Yang Yi, there were already millions of light spots in the picture, and they were evenly distributed, covering the entire Acarius star.

"With a distance of one hundred kilometers, we have nowhere to hide."

Yang Yi frowned and said nothing.

When he found that the enemy's patrol ship started to drop the probes, Yang Yi asked Otis if the "Xinghai" could enter the liquid hydrogen ocean of Acarius.Although Otis gave an affirmative answer that the "Xinghai" can fully withstand the low temperature of the liquid hydrogen ocean, but Allen gave a negative answer, that is, the disturbance generated by the "Xinghai" when entering the liquid hydrogen ocean will definitely Spotted by enemy ships.

The reason is simple, the "Xinghai" is a warship.

Although it is only a small battleship, its volume and mass are similar to a large meteorite. Even if it enters the liquid hydrogen ocean at a very low speed, it will cause ripples, causing the state of the liquid hydrogen ocean to change.Not to mention those detectors, even patrol ships in synchronous orbit can find them.

The problem is, staying in the atmosphere will also be detected.

For the human legion, the detectors launched by the patrol ships are no strangers, and they can be regarded as one of the most frequently used weapons by the Silicon Magic Alliance.In the previous several Greenwich Wars, the Silicon Magic Alliance used this consumable in large quantities, causing a lot of trouble for the Galactic Alliance.On the space battlefield, this seemingly ordinary detector can detect warships hundreds of thousands of kilometers away and issue an alarm in time.Even in the atmosphere of the Acarius star, the detection range will not be less than one hundred kilometers, let alone fifty kilometers is enough.As long as it enters the atmosphere of Acarius and lands towards the liquid hydrogen ocean, it is only a matter of time before the "Xinghai" is discovered.

How to do?
"Major, we may be able to hide."

"Speak!" Yang Yi dared not delay, although Allen is just an artificial intelligence program, but at this moment, it is a good thing to be able to come up with a solution.

"There's a developing cyclone to the northwest, and going into the center of the cyclone may be able to avoid those detectors."

"where?"

The screen expanded, and Allen showed the cyclone with a diameter of more than [-] kilometers that was still growing rapidly, and specially increased the brightness.

"The airflow in the center of the cyclone is very stable, but the height of the cyclone is about [-] kilometers, and the wind speed at the periphery is more than [-] kilometers per hour. As long as they can reach the center of the cyclone, those probes that fall from high altitude will be caught by the strong wind at the periphery of the cyclone." Blowing away, we cannot enter the center of the cyclone, and we cannot be found. It’s just that we cannot enter from above, and must pass through the outer strong wind belt.”

Yang Yi nodded slightly, and looked towards Otis.

"Major, there is no problem with the battleship itself." Before Otis could speak, Allen said again, "This wind speed does not pose any threat to the battleship. The key is that if we actively approach the cyclone, we may be exposed before entering the cyclone. Moreover, after entering the cyclone, the disturbance caused by the lateral movement of the warship will inevitably have an impact on the airflow around the cyclone, and it is more likely to be detected by nearby detectors."

"Then what should we do?" Shen Chengwen asked for Yang Yi.

"Let the cyclone come closer and draw us in." Allen paused for a moment, and then said, "I have calculated that the cyclone will pass nearby, and we only need to move about a thousand kilometers northeast before that. Can enter the cyclone in about 15 minutes."

"So, what are you waiting for?"

"The probe released by the enemy ship has entered the atmosphere and will arrive within 10 minutes."

Shen Chengwen was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help laughing bitterly.

"So we need five minutes?"

"The only way to get these 5 minutes is to lower the flight altitude, and according to my calculations, it must be close to the liquid hydrogen ocean."

"How close?" Yang Yi asked again.

"No more than 100 meters."

"Is there a problem?" Yang Yi frowned.

"On Acarius, this altitude is too low. What's more, the cyclone is approaching, and the wave height on the liquid hydrogen ocean exceeds 1000 meters. Although the performance of the 'Xinghai' is not a problem, let alone being hit by the waves, Even if it enters the liquid hydrogen ocean, it can sail normally, but it will definitely be discovered."

Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't think of this question.

"If you are in control, how sure are you?" Shen Chengwen asked directly.

"Less than [-]%, and it depends on luck. There are too many unpredictable factors. Even relying on the most powerful optical brain of the Weaving Star Clan can't make an accurate prediction."

Shen Chengwen was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Yang Yi.

Yang Yi did not make a decision immediately, but cast a questioning look at Otis.

"Is there any other way?"

"No, this is the only way to avoid the detector."

"Then, what's there to hesitate about?" Otis pursed her lips, and she obviously didn't understand the hesitation of Yang Yi and Shen Chengwen.

"Major?"

"Just do it this way, at least it's much better than throwing yourself into a trap. Besides, be prepared for space jumps."

"Space jump on Acarius star? Major, although the 'Xinghai' can do it, but doing so will inevitably lead to unpredictable consequences. If Acarius star is attracted by the opened space channel, and thus fell into the space channel, then the whole planet..."

"It will be destroyed, I know. The problem is, if we are discovered, the enemy will definitely destroy the Achilles star, and there will be no hesitation. At that time, if we make a space jump, not only will it be impossible to keep the Acarius star , we may not be able to escape smoothly."

"clear."

"Go ahead. Aaron, it's up to you."

"Yes!"

Under Allen's control, "Xinghai" quickly lowered its flight altitude and flew towards the liquid hydrogen ocean below.

In fact, even if there is no cyclone, the liquid hydrogen ocean on Acarius is not calm, and the wave height at any time is more than ten kilometers.If there is a strong convective cyclone, the wave height can even reach [-] kilometers in the area affected by the cyclone, and waves with a height of [-] kilometers are not uncommon.

Fortunately, it's just the waves.

When approaching the liquid hydrogen ocean, Allen showed the picture outside the battleship.

Affected by the cyclone, huge waves have been thrown on the liquid hydrogen ocean, and there seems to be no end to the wave after wave.If measured by the ocean on Yanhuang Star, there is indeed no end, because the range of influence of this cyclone is more than [-] kilometers, and the circumference of Yanhuang Star's equator is only [-] kilometers.

It's just that there are some gaps in the waves that "Xinghai" can pass through.

Allen took advantage of these gaps.

To put it simply, the "Xinghai" traveled between the waves, heading northeast, that is, flying along a line perpendicular to the direction of the cyclone.

In just a few minutes, Yang Yi and the others felt as if several hours had passed.

When the "Xinghai" vibrated violently, Yang Yi's heart tightened, but he immediately relaxed because Allen didn't sound the alarm.

Soon, detailed information appeared in front of Yang Yi.

The "Xinghai" had already entered a cyclone, to be precise, it was swallowed by a laterally moving cyclone.

The cyclone is very powerful and contains infinite power, but it is completely transparent and cannot be seen at all.It's very simple, the atmosphere of the Achilles star is almost completely composed of hydrogen, and the content of other elements is less than [-]%, it is extremely pure, it can be said to be spotless.Besides, the Acarius star is at the outermost edge of the home galaxy, so far away from the stars in the center of the galaxy, it is almost completely shrouded in darkness.

"Xinghai" entered the cyclone, Yang Yi, Shen Chengwen and Otis all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
