Chapter 355 Defensive Formation

Hearing what the conductor said, the technician's body trembled again.

He raised his head, looked at the screen in front of him with panic eyes, and silently prayed in his heart for the results of the next investigation.

At the top of the screen, a countdown to the arrival of the detector is displayed.

Ten days.

This meant that he had to spend ten long days in the shadow of death.

"You go first."

Perhaps because he failed to find the location of human civilization, or because of an "unexpected" situation with the long-distance communication device, a look of impatience flashed across the commander's face.

"In these ten days, I hope you can find sufficient evidence!"

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in the technician's eyes.

It nodded repeatedly, stood up and ran quickly towards the door.

…

The ultra-distance communication device is in an isolated room.

The technician's face was full of confusion and confusion.

A full ten days passed.

From its perspective, there is still nothing unusual about this long-distance communication device!

Not only that, it also found a lot of colleagues of its own.

But no one can detect the problem.

The technician sat on the cold ground, feeling the weak gravity from the simulated gravity device, with deep despair in his eyes.

He turned his head and glanced at the time.

The time is almost up.

It still found no so-called evidence.

If there are no enemy ships near the signal source...

It stood up with a bitter look on its face, disconnected the maintenance terminal, and staggered towards the isolation room door.

According to the order issued by the commander, it now needs to go to the command center to face the final "trial".

The moment it walked out of the isolation room door.

A piercing alarm sounded in the flagship!

This extremely sharp sound did not panic it!

on the contrary.

After being stunned for a few seconds, it showed a relieved and relaxed smile.

Finally, the bet was right.

…

When the technician walked slowly to the command center, it was already a mess.

It glanced casually at the screen directly in front of it.

As expected.

In addition to the explosion of fire, a brand new signal source appeared in front of everyone.

"technician!"

The originally calm commander was now in a state of panic.

It shouted: "What the hell is going on?"

"Why was our long-distance communication device invaded by a second-level civilization!"

At this moment, the stubborn and arrogant commander finally admitted this incredible conclusion.

As for the reason...

The sirens just now are the best evidence.

The same starship, the same self-destruction.

Although this self-destruction did not cause any damage to the detector, it was like a slap in the face.

While feeling embarrassed and ashamed, uncontrollable rage arose in its heart!

In its heart, its anger towards human civilization has reached its peak!

Damn bugs!

"Command." The gray technician looked as usual and saluted respectfully to the fleet commander.

"Technician, have you found the reason?!"

The conductor gasped and asked in a deep voice.

Hearing this question, the Gray technician's expression changed slightly, but he still said calmly: "At the moment, not yet."

"you……"

Before the fleet commander's scolding could be heard, it spoke again: "To be precise, we haven't found the reason yet."

"...You?" The conductor's expression changed slightly, suppressing the anger in his heart.

Although the status of these technicians in civilization is not high, it is not enough to do such stupid things that offend the entire technician group.

"Yes." The technician lowered his stance. "Dear fleet commander, in the past ten days, no technician has discovered any problems."

"This only shows that in the field of computer software, the other party far surpasses us."

"This is normal, after all..."

"You also know that we do not belong to a normally developing civilization."

The conductor didn't speak, just sat quietly in his seat.

It was filled with shock!

This...how is this possible!

A Level 2 civilization actually surpasses a quasi-Level 4 civilization in the field of computer software? !

It gritted its teeth fiercely, and a cold light shone in its eyes!

"Crack!"

It raised its hand and slapped the console in front of it hard.

"If that's the case, then I can't let them go!"

"Release all detectors!"

"Prepare to enter the warp navigation state again!"

"Even if I turn this one light-year area upside down, I still want to find this small second-level civilization!"

…

Human fleet.

"Professor, Xuannv No. 2 has been discovered."

Zero's voice sounded in the command center.

Lu Yongchang slowly opened his eyes and murmured in a low voice: "Ten days..."

After pondering for a moment, he untied the electromagnetic adsorption device on the chair, stood up and said: "Zero, tell everyone, from now on, always be prepared to deal with enemy attacks!"

"All fleets, maintain radio silence!"

"At the same time, activate the defensive formation!"

Hearing this, Zhao Zijie's face flashed with surprise.

"From now on?"

"Don't we still have 15 baits?"

"Not bad." Lu Yongchang nodded vigorously and repeated again, "From now on!"

"Otherwise, it might be too late."

Sensing the confusion in Zhao Zijie's eyes, he smiled and explained.

"Have you not noticed that the fleet has been sailing in a straight line since the last change of course?"

Zhao Zijie nodded: "I have noticed this."

"Professor, you probably want to save some energy, right?"

Lu Yongchang nodded and shook his head.

"That's half the answer right."

"The fleet turns and consumes a lot of energy. This is part of the reason."

"The most important reason is that we currently do not have the other party's location information."

"When the other party has a higher sailing speed, turning blindly is likely to collide with the surrounding network of the other party's detectors."

Speaking of this, Lu Yongchang sighed and sat on his chair again.

"The bait is our tool to lead the other party to other areas."

"But the problem lies precisely here."

"Although these Xuannv 2s have turned several times, they are heading away from us no matter what."

"More than ten samples are enough for them to calculate and deduce the possible direction of the human fleet."

"therefore……"

"War has become a high probability event."

"It just depends on when the other party reacts."

…

While the two were talking, the human fleet was quietly changing its formation.

One after another [Homeship] is approaching [Earth].

Under Zero's control, the distance between each [Home Ship] quickly narrowed until it remained on a cordon.

The distance between the [Golden Crow] battleships expanded rapidly.

They take [Earth] and [Homeship] as the center of the sphere and slowly spread outward.

During the formation change, the fleet was in radio silence.

All information is transmitted by long-distance communication devices.
