Chapter 317 Sinking

Everyone was stunned by the mantis man on the crystal.

There is no doubt that this is an extremely rare level nine insect den. But endless insect corpses are piled up in a level nine insect cave. What kind of thing is this? Is this mantis the evolved form of the ninth-level female insect? Is there really a god-level powerful person taking action, or is it ordering endless insect tribesmen to surround it and use their vitality to evolve to cause all this?

Is it still alive?

Questions linger in everyone's consciousness.

The crystal layer reflected the light of the artificial sun, making the Mantis man's form so dazzling. Everyone's mind and attention were attracted to it, and they did not notice the changes in the outside world, and a terrible disaster was coming.

Until all the spaceships and battleships sounded piercing sirens.

"Warning, the gravitational field is disordered; Warning, the gravitational field is disordered. Please leave immediately, please leave immediately..."

Everyone woke up, and at this time, the frightened voice of the team responsible for oblique monitoring in the distance came out: "The cosmic sea is forming a terrifying sea whirlpool, and the speed is very fast. We must leave immediately..."

Everyone in the center of the floating island was shocked. Without waiting for Guan Tong's order, they drove the spacecraft and accelerated into the sky.

According to the plan, when a critical situation occurs, the monitoring team's instructions are above all else, and even Guan Tong, the person in charge, must execute them. Because for the curvature drive, the person in charge can already run a far enough distance before giving an order, which greatly increases the chance of escape.

The monitoring screen shared by the monitoring team appeared on the fleet communication channel. A cosmic sea as vast as the starry sky diagonally ahead was twisting, forming a spiral vortex visible to the naked eye. And the floating island they were on was like an inconspicuous ball in the sea, quickly being rolled into the abyss.

The fleet accelerated and flew outwards. Most of the fleets that reacted quickly were already out of the scope of the sea whirlpool, while a small number were still above the sea whirlpool. In the terrifying gravitational field, it was as if space was distorted, causing their curvature to become unstable. Their escape directions were east, west, up and down, like dragonflies struggling in the headwind, and their speed was far slower than it should be. s level.

Unstable curvature is the most feared problem of curvature drive. Not only the direction is disordered, but the speed is also disordered, scurrying around like a headless fly. The interior of the star system forms a regular and balanced gravitational field during its long-term operation, and situations that can affect the curvature drive rarely occur. But in the jungle, you will encounter cosmic force fields that appear inexplicably from time to time, distorting space, and causing this kind of confusion in the curvature drive.

The large whirlpool that appears now in the cosmic sea is most likely caused by the tsunami in another sea area some time ago that caused the large displacement of many floating islands and the chaos of the internal gravitational field.

"Overclocking output and escape!" Guan Tong's flagship was originally far away from the floating island and was the first batch of spacecraft to escape the danger. When he saw the scene behind him, he controlled his emotions and tried to give the order in a calm tone.

The struggling warship suddenly increased the output of its curvature engine, used overclocking to generate a more powerful force field, and forcibly maintained its own curvature. It finally got rid of the influence of the distortion force field generated by the sea vortex and escaped to a safe distance.

"Ling Qi hasn't come out yet!" Dong Ni yelled in horror. Guan Tong, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt his heart twitch and a look of pain appeared on his face.

"Qu Shaocheng's two warships did not escape, and there were 13 escorting warships. None of those who were in the pit at that time came out!" Cheng Ying reported the situation in a deep voice.

There was a dead silence in the fleet. Although we knew that this kind of expedition was extremely risky, the real loss was still uncomfortable.

"Hai Xuan's force field is still expanding and continues to move away. Engineer Ling Qi...Qu Shaocheng...can you communicate?"

No one answered, which cast a thick shadow on everyone's heart. Quantum communication is not affected by this harsh environment, but now that they can't be contacted, there is only one possibility. At least their communication equipment was damaged in the distortion of the force field.

The power of this force field can affect their curvature, and may also destroy various matrices inside the spacecraft. After all, the functions of the matrix itself are also realized through various force fields.

In this situation, those who have not escaped are in danger. Faced with such a result, the fleet was powerless. It was impossible for them to look back. With such a swirling sea, they had no idea where the floating island had been swept. They now have only two choices left. After repairing the warships that were damaged by overclocking, they can either return with the current harvest or find other floating islands to continue exploring.

"Go to another area!" Guan Tong was silent for a long time before giving the order. More than 1.6 million tons of crystals are less than 20% of the carrying capacity of more than 2,000 warships and spaceships. It took half a year of travel to get here, and I naturally hope to return as full as possible.

The fleet moved to other areas. At the same time, engineers of level six and above dispersed into the warships that had escaped from overclocking and began to repair the damaged matrix.

Deep inside the cosmic sea, floating islands are dragged towards unknown seas by the undercurrent of the sea whirlpool.

Ling Qi looked at the exterior scene and cursed in her heart. This was imaged through sonar detection. It was very unclear and only had outlines. He turned on the lights around the spacecraft, which made the exterior scene clearer. Surrounding and above his spaceship were other warships, and the outer layer was endless insect shells, and he was pressed to the bottom.

They had escaped from the pit before, but just a few kilometers away from the floating island, the force field of the curvature engine was disrupted and destroyed by the powerful force field of the sea swirl. The hull was temporarily intact, but many matrices and equipment inside were damaged one after another, and they fell directly back to the bottom of the pit.

The progress bar of the repair skill rose and fell in front of him, fell and rose again, and damage and repair were performed repeatedly. Then, the insect shell around the pit collapsed, burying the maintenance spacecraft and fifteen other warships at the bottom of the pit. In just two minutes, seawater poured in, seeping through the endless gaps between the insect shells to the side of the spacecraft...

"How is the situation?" Ao Ying, Changge Meigui and others also gathered on the bridge and asked solemnly.

"Fortunately, the situation is not too bad!" Ling Qi replied.

At this time, being deep in the sea and buried deep in a large pit, the impact of the distortion force field was minimal. It was just swept away by the gravity of the cosmic sea and the sea water following the entire floating island. The gravity of the floating island itself firmly sucked the insect shells and seawater into the pit, which provided Ling Qi with natural protection. What his spacecraft still needs to withstand is the water pressure of the deep sea.

No longer damaged by the external force field, the maintenance progress bar of the maintenance spacecraft was finally read. Ling Qi also heard Guan Tong's words, but he didn't know how to respond. Having just fallen from an altitude of 10,000 meters, and then fell into the bottom of a pit more than ten kilometers away, his spacecraft was lucky not to damage the simulated gravity system immediately, otherwise they might have fallen into pieces. But the situation of Qu Shaocheng and the others was unknown. Ling Qi estimated that they were in danger.

Just when Ling Qi was thinking this, Qu Shaocheng's voice suddenly sounded on the open public radio channel: "Damn, it's finally fixed... Is there anyone nearby? Ling Qi, are you here? Our battleship was seriously damaged and can only barely recover. Got the sonar signal, need help!"

Ling Qi was shocked that this guy was so lucky that he didn't even die like this.

Sonar communication is an accessory equipment function in the communication system, which is simple and easy to repair. It is specially designed for situations where quantum communication is damaged and radio communication is affected. It can propagate sound waves through liquid media and then analyze them in the radio channel to achieve the purpose of short-distance communication.
