Chapter 2 A New World! A Strange World!

Xuefeng slowly left the ground as Qi Yiming ordered it to take off.

"The engine is in good working condition, and the main gun barrel No. 1 is charging. The fire control radar has captured the target and can be activated at any time. Xuefeng has entered sniper mode."

With the assistance of the ship's intelligent brain, Qi Yiming gradually completed all preparations before the main gun was fired.

At this time, there were still 3 hours before the asteroid impact, and Xuefeng still had time to adjust the shooting angle.

"Intelligent brain, calculate the best shooting point to change the asteroid's orbit. Don't ask to smash the asteroid, just ask to change its orbit."

"Calculation completed, the target distance is 203,000 kilometers, the speed is 69,000 kilometers per hour, the artillery coordinates have been recalibrated, and we are waiting for the best time to attack."

In sniper mode, the effective shooting distance of Xuefeng is an astonishing 300,000 kilometers. It is easy to deal with an asteroid 203,000 kilometers away.

The long wait was a torment for Qi Yiming, but fortunately, the asteroid finally entered the effective range of Xuefeng after several hours.

Qi Yiming stared at the information displayed by the fire control radar nervously. Under the guidance of the radar, the main gun of the Xuefeng slowly rotated the gun body and made the final fine-tuning.

"Beep..." After a prompt sound, the fire control radar prompted that the target had been locked and it could be fired.

Qi Yiming gritted his teeth and poked his finger hard on the launch button.

The body of the Xuefeng suddenly shook, and a red burst laser beam rushed out of the atmosphere and flew towards the target asteroid.

After a short flight, the burst laser accurately hit the target point. The violent explosion pushed the asteroid to make a small displacement, but only this little displacement was corrected through the long flight trajectory, and the asteroid finally passed by the planet's atmosphere.

At this moment, Qi Yiming breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the soft captain's chair.

Just when the main gun of the Xuefeng was fired, a small fleet consisting of two frigates was closely monitoring the planet killer at a position 0.2 light minutes away from the planet where the Xuefeng was located.

Originally, they thought they could watch a world-destroying performance of some magnitude, but they didn't expect that the asteroid was hit by a bursting laser fired from the ground when it was about to enter the gravitational field of the planet, causing the asteroid to deviate from its original orbit.

Fleet commander Wang Sen immediately raised the alert level, and all combatants returned to their posts, ready to respond to possible attacks from the unknown planet.

"Sir, the radar detected signs of warship activity on the surface of the planet. Unknown level!"

"Unknown level?"

"Yes, there is no relevant information in our database, but judging from the energy level of the bombardment just now, it is at least a destroyer."

At the same time, the Xuefeng returned to the ground again.

"Warning, energy reserves are below the 5% warning value, please replace the energy core in time."

Qi Yiming smiled bitterly and ignored the warning of the intelligent brain.

Through the hanging window with the shielding armor removed, he stared blankly at the slightly red sky.

"An unknown fleet has been detected, suspected to be a sickle-class frigate, with two ships." The intelligent brain issued a warning again.

Qi Yiming, who was originally immersed in memories, trembled with both hands, "Sickle-class? Is it a human fleet? Did the Federation fleet fight back?"

Two blue dots on the radar screen flickered regularly with the scanning frequency of the ship-borne radar, but the information interface only had one line of words: "Suspected Sickle-class."

"Intelligent brain, turn on the optical observation instrument. Enlarge the images of the two warships and put them on the main screen."

Two blurred shadows appeared on the main screen of the Xuefeng bridge, and the images became clearer and clearer as the optical instruments were fine-tuned.

"Yes, it's the Sickle-class! This is definitely a human fleet, but why do these two Sickle-class look so weird?"

In Qi Yiming's memory, only humans would combine artistic atmosphere with warships. Qi Yiming will never forget the graceful hull curve of the Sickle-class in his life. After all, the first warship he served in was a Sickle-class frigate.

However, the sickle-class frigates did not originally have missile launch nests mounted on the outside of the ship, and the two sickle-class frigates in the picture had no less than seven missile launch nests densely mounted on the outside of the ship in addition to the original two main guns.

After thinking for a while, Qi Yiming decided to hide first. He was sure that the other party had definitely noticed the bombardment of the asteroid just now.

If nothing unexpected happened, they would send people to investigate, and it would not be too late to contact the other party after confirming their identity.

Looking at the red sky again, Qi Yiming drove the Xuefeng, which was seriously short of energy, slowly landed in a valley, turned off the rest of the equipment on the warship, and only let the ship-borne radar run at the lowest power.

Not long after, two frigates appeared again within the radar detection range, and Qi Yiming breathed a sigh of relief.

He was actually quite conflicted now. He wanted to contact the other party but was afraid that the other party had bad intentions.

The two frigates gradually approached the landing position of the Xuefeng, and one of the frigates released a small transport boat to fly towards the Xuefeng.

Qi Yiming stood in the bridge and saw everything clearly.

The transport boat landed not far from the Xuefeng, and a team of fully armed soldiers came down from it and walked towards the Xuefeng cautiously.

Seeing the people coming, Qi Yiming's heart dropped in his throat and he let it go: "It's good that it's human. At least they are the same kind and can communicate."

Although the Xuefeng no longer has energy to support her to fire again, the group of people who came don't know.

He has to find a way to scare these people and see if he can get some energy blocks.

Turning on the warship's external broadcast, Qi Yiming cleared his throat and said, "Who are you?"

The group of people hesitated for a moment, and then they all looked for shelter.

One of them pressed the communicator to contact his warship.

"Sir, the people on the warship are asking about our purpose."

"You stay where you are and don't show hostility. I'll talk to him." Wang Sen was not surprised by this situation and ordered the communications chief to send a directional communication request to the warship.

Qi Yiming tidied his clothes before connecting the communication, trying to make himself look calmer.

After everything is done, it's time to perform.

"Hello! I am Wang Sen, the first heir of the Wang family of Xuannv Galaxy. Please state your identity and affiliation!"

Qi Yiming saw a heroic young man on the communication screen, wearing a decent military uniform and staring at him seriously.

"Qi Yiming, Captain of Xuefeng. Belongs to the Human Federation Strategic Strike Fleet." Qi Yiming did not hide his true identity.

He first wanted to use this identity to test the other party to determine whether the other party was a member of the Human Federation.

After all, more than a thousand years have passed, and it is still a question whether the Human Federation exists after that war.

Unfortunately, Wang Sen's reaction was not surprise but confusion.

"Human Federation? Which force is it? Why are you here?"

Qi Yiming was disappointed. It seems that the world is indeed different now.

"My warship encountered some accidents and was forced to land on this planet for more than half a year. I have only recently completed some repairs." Qi Yiming sorted out his thoughts, avoided the question of the Human Federation, and lied.

Wang Sen's adjutant whispered in his ear: "The ground personnel sent back intelligence that the engine of the Xuefeng showed signs of damage."

Wang Sen nodded calmly and then asked Qi Yiming: "Your warship? Do you mean that this warship belongs to you personally?"

Qi Yiming did not speak, mainly because he did not know how to answer this question.

But Qi Yiming's reaction seemed to Wang Sen to be his acquiescence.

Wang Sen was delighted, "Are you a freedom fighter?"

Qi Yiming still did not speak, but he was happy in his heart: "This person is really interesting, his inner drama is so rich. I didn't say anything, but he had already arranged a suitable identity for me."

Wang Sen was even happier to see that Qi Yiming did not refute, and then said: "I wonder if I will be lucky enough to invite you to join our Wang family, and the treatment and everything will be fine."

At this time, Qi Yiming had mixed feelings in his heart: "Oh my god, what kind of world is this, how did the family forces emerge?"
