Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

"Eileen, Ellie, why don't you go quickly?"

Found...

Seeing her mother's eyes suddenly looking over, Irene, Ellie's neck shrank.

"Ellie, go quickly..."

Ellie took her sister's hand, and the two of them turned and hurriedly walked deeper into the corridor.

Listening to the footsteps leaving deep in the corridor, Irina withdrew her gaze.

She looked back at the "King" on the recliner, but hesitated to speak.

In the end, I just stood silently...

"Why are we so estranged after not seeing each other for two years?"

Looking at Mrs. Irina standing aside, Li Meng smiled.

Li Meng patted the recliner next to him and said, "Come here!"

Silently, Irina took a few steps forward and sat down next to the "King".

Smelling the body fragrance coming from Irina, Li Meng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although it is not as addictive as the scent of "Fire Ambergris", it is still pretty good.

"I'm going to a place in a few days. Will you go with me, or stay in the palace?"

A trip to the trading mall must be put on the agenda.

One is to complete the task, and the other is for the population.

The larger the population base, the faster children can be born.

Without any hesitation, Irina whispered: "King, I will let you go..."

Hearing this, Li Meng turned to look at 001 on the side.

"001, inform Otis to arrange for a "Firestorm-class" escort ship and two "Cobra" destroyers to follow me to the trading mall and load all the Mortal Crystal Ore Powder on board."

For nearly four years, some forces may have controlled the star system where the "Trading Mall" is located.

Although this possibility is very small.

Because once a force wants to block the "Trade Mall", the result will undoubtedly become a public enemy of the S sector.

No matter in any era, there will always be stupid people, so you must be prepared for a rainy day.

Although three battleships are not many, they are enough.

Seemingly thinking of something, Li Meng said: "001, send us the information about the "Firestorm" escort ship..."

Blue light flashed, and a holographic screen appeared in front of Li Meng.

Displayed on the screen is the data of the "Firestorm-class" escort ship.

As an escort ship, the "Firestorm" class hull is much larger than the "Cobra" destroyer.

The ship is 1.8 kilometers long and 0.35 kilometers wide. Its appearance is the same as the "Cobra" destroyer, which is in line with the religious culture of the empire.

It looks more like a church, but it lacks the flying wing door panel structure.

Like most ships of the Empire, the bow is a huge ram structure.

Compared with the "Cobra" destroyer, the "Firestorm" class escort ship has a better E-class fusion reactor, which can provide more energy.

There are better E-class ion thrusters with more thrust.

As a fire strike ship, the main gun of the "Firestorm-class" escort ship is a large light spear.

Located under the bow of the ship, there is a gun barrel hundreds of meters long, which is particularly eye-catching.

It can emit a high-energy ray beam with a diameter of up to 30 meters, which is so powerful that it can ignore the armor of enemy warships.

There is also a medium-sized three-barrel light spear turret on the upper deck of the bow.

When attacking, the turret can fire three beams that merge.

It is then focused into a focused high-energy ray beam with a diameter of 20 meters.

Whether it's breaking shields or armor, the powerful power of the light spear can do the job.

The close-in defense weapon system has 124 100 mm caliber twin seven-barreled automatic cannons.

It can effectively intercept enemy torpedoes, small missiles, and carrier-based aircraft.

As an escort ship. The "Firestorm-class" escort ship is undoubtedly qualified.

Air defense and firepower are integrated into one. Because the whole ship is relatively mechanized, it has strong anti-electromagnetic interference capabilities.

Pretty strong...

After thinking for a while, Li Meng said again: "Open the star map..."

The screen flashed, and the star map of the Milky Way suddenly appeared.

There are two types of star maps, one is the extensive star map of the Milky Way.

Only a few cantilevers can be seen, a general galaxy map of the Milky Way, but no details of each star region.

The second type is the drawn star field map.

The Milky Way is three-dimensional, and there are many star systems in the upper, lower, left and right directions of the S-01888 star system.

It took nearly four years to explore seven star systems.

They are S-01888, S-01885, S-01901, S-01881, S-01874, S-01909, S-01904.

In addition to this star system S-01888, the trading mall is located in the star system S-01904.

Only S-01909, where the frozen planet is located, is the most valuable.

No rich reserves of rare minerals have been found in the other four star systems, and there are no planets suitable for transformation.

Some star systems even lack water resources and their value is very low.

When he saw the star system where the "Trading Mall" was located, Li Meng remembered something.

It’s been two years, why is there still no movement from the “UNSC”?

There has been no war in the S-01888 star system for two years.

No spacecraft from any force has entered the S-01888 star system.

Now that the hostile relationship with the "UNSC" has become a fact, we must prepare for the worst.

The current situation is in the opponent's favor because he doesn't know where the UNSC headquarters is.

But the "UNSC" knew his location.

Facing "UNSC", he could only passively defend.

Li Meng knew very well that unless the headquarters of the "UNSC" could be found, the initiative would be in his own hands.

But it is not easy to find "UNSC" in the vast sea of ​​​​stars.

Even if "UNSC" is very close to S-01888, it is only ten or twenty light years away.

There will also be hundreds of star systems searched.

It's not much easier than finding a needle in a haystack.

With a wave of his hand, the holographic screen disappeared immediately...

Leaning back, Li Meng looked thoughtful.

Now we can only take one step at a time.

As long as "UNSC" appears, it will be much easier to find where the "UNSC" headquarters is.

…

S-01820 star system.

UNSC, "Star God" space station.

The space station is located in a large asteroid within a group of asteroids.

Because the asteroid resembles a human head, it was named "Star God".

After nearly four years of development, the "Star God" space station has developed to its limit.

There is no more usable space in the asteroid, so it can only stretch outward.

At this time, in the conference hall of the space station...

"After nearly two years of preparation, "UNSC" has made great progress. At least, at this moment, we all have a goal in our hearts to strive for. For this goal, everyone has worked very hard in the past two years, but this The hard work is worth it..."

At the head of the metal round table, Wood Steven stood up.

He raised his hand and a holographic image suddenly appeared above the round table.

In the picture is a planet, an earthy yellow planet.

From the low orbit of the planet, space elevator docks can be seen standing on the surface of the planet.

The Steadfast-class frigates under construction can be seen in the dock.
