After the loading and unloading of smuggled goods and ores, the base converted from an old dockyard was not quiet, and a loud low roar came from the sparse air, which was felt by everyone through the floor-to-ceiling observation window as the ground vibrate.
Xiong Linquan and the five of them looked out the window, only to see a pile of metal components slowly rising from the light yellow horizon of the mining star, these metal components have no regular shape, and the traces of erosion can be faintly seen under the painted black surface armor, which looks like garbage.
Even if it was metal waste, they were still startled by the sudden influx of such a large amount of garbage into the base, and the five of them looked at each other, naturally associating this pile of garbage with the giant spaceship in front of the dockyard, because the ship's tattered and metal garbage were really no different.
Just as they had guessed, the giant hoisting and maintenance equipment in the dock began to kick in, and dozens of thick robotic arms stretched out from both sides of the dock, grabbing the metal junk components on the outer rim and slowly lifting them to the outside of the ship.
Thousands of fireworks-like welding fires lit up the shipyard all around, and the black and tattered ship looked like a garment that had been worn for countless years, sewing countless heavy metal components into itself with a hard and heavy graphite core and welding sparks.
As time passed, more and more black metal components hung from the outside of the broken spaceship, and the heavy components were piled up like bottles and cans, dense and ugly, and the ship suddenly turned into a hard-working old man in Bermuda's garbage heap.
Xiong Linquan and the others looked out the window at the picture, watching the metal components the size of an apartment building welded into the spaceship like a random patchwork, and watching the former Charter Bureau triplane that he had been flying for many days getting bigger and bigger in this old dockyard, becoming more and more ugly and ugly, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"What's the use of hanging so many garbage components on the spaceship" Xiong Linquan remembered the picture of the black and broken spaceship scattered in S1 three years ago, and scratched his head and asked suspiciously: "Is the boss really going to use this spaceship to hit the official residence?"
The shipyard installation work is simple and boring, although the picture is extremely shocking, but it is a little tired of seeing more, and the team members are silently carrying out the work at hand, no longer looking out of the window from time to time.
Gu Xifeng took the electronic pen to record the numerical curve on the workbench, confirmed that there was no problem with the dock energy supply, finished the task during this time period, sat back in the chair a little tired, and gently rested his feet on the workbench.
Lit a cigarette, took a sip of coffee, Gu Xifeng squinted his eyes and looked out the window, there was no entertainment in the old dockyard, only the activity of distant eyes.
Xiong Linquan, who finished the inspection, walked back to the control room with a few people from the mountain artillery, he unceremoniously took Gu Xifeng's coffee cup and took a sip, and then took out a cigarette case and gave it to the team members.
There was a soft click, Xiong Linquan held a cigarette in his mouth, and quickly disassembled the T modified sniper rifle in his hand, his eyes were a little confused by the smoke.
Unscrewed the pulse ignition valve, took out the carbon composite single tube, Xiong Linquan clamped it with two fingers, observed the light for a moment, squinted his eyes and said: "This sniper rifle designed by the leader is indeed violent, but our number is too small to form a dense firepower network, it is good to use it for assassination after returning to the Federation, but if you want to fight head-on with the small-eyed special operations force, it is of little significance." ” Blicking off the remaining cigarette rolls in his hand, Xiong Linquan frowned and looked at the fiery retrofit picture in the dock outside the window, and couldn't help but say depressedly: "So many resources and energy are all used to wear cotton jackets for the triwing, even if this is not a cotton jacket or a real body armor, it is impossible to fight with the Federation fleet, and I don't know what the leader thinks, with a lot of firepower, it would be even better if there were a few X." ” "The boss said that this dockyard has nothing to do with the Empire, which is equivalent to saying that it is all the result of his own work."
Gu Xifeng shook his head and said: "Any weaponry, even if it seems simple to you, is a very troublesome system engineering.
Without the support of the whole system's sophisticated science and technology, and without a large industrial base, it is already inconceivable that he can make a t, and there is no need to think about things like military mechas, except for the Federation and the Empire, who has this ability, Bermudians don't want it" The black ship in the old dockyard outside the window has become bigger and uglier at a visible rate these days, in fact it seems to grow a little bit by the minute, and now the size of the ship has become very terrifying, and it seems that it will have no problem fitting a few parliament hills on the outside.
Xiong Linquan looked out the window, looked at the giant spaceship that occupied most of the sky, felt the insignificance of the human individual, and couldn't help frowning and said: "If you really want to rush into the capital star circle like this, the problem is that the larger the volume, the easier it is to be discovered by the Charter's brilliance, and the easier it is to be hit by the battleship's main gun." ” At this time, Xu Le pushed open the door and walked in, he had been busy on the upper deck of the dock for the past two days with Philip modifying the spaceship, and he didn't hear the team's discussions, nor did he know Xiong Lin's worries at this time.
Walking to the window, Xu Le supported his waist and moved his sour body, looking at the huge spaceship shadow outside the window that was gradually taking shape or becoming unformed, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he turned back to everyone and said: "This triplane has been with me for several years, but now it doesn't look like a triplane for a long time, so I want to choose a new name, I haven't thought about it, do you have any opinions?"
Gu Xifeng shrugged, spread his hands and said, "Boss, you know, whether it is to name people or warships, it is always the most difficult thing. ” Zhu'er said: "Let's go back to the federation with the head, or we will call the seven groups" "Not good."
The monkey shook his head and sneered: "The team is called the seventh group, how can the battleship call the seven groups to communicate with each other when the two sides fire in the future, you have to say that you are the seventh group of pearls, and others still think that you are a battleship communication soldier." ” "Then what do you call it domineering?"
The monkey waved his arms and said arrogantly: "Cosmic Seven" Xiong Linquan did not join the discussion and controversy of the team members, walked to Xu Le's side in silence, and expressed his worries with a solemn expression: "The hull of the ship is too large, and the charter is easy to find and easy to be hit. ” Xu Le calmly explained: "For the Charter, no matter how small the ship is, it can be discovered, but for us, the bigger the ship, the smaller it can be in the future. ” What kind of shit logic can only become small when you are big Xiong Linquan looked at Xu Le's face in a daze, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Boss, you have really become a third-rate philosopher." ” There is a breeze blowing on the waste charging star, which is not gloomy, but still tragic, and the huge shadow that shrouds the entire old dockyard is gradually becoming smaller.
With thousands of tons of smoke and dust kicking up, the huge black dilapidated spaceship, or Cosmos Seven, slowly and decisively left the ground and flew into the pitch-black universe.
The control compartment in the deepest part of the ship sounded the alarm disarming signal, and people untied their mobile restraints and began to adjust to the sensation of pseudogravity.
Because of Philip's existence, the team members never entered the command cabin, and only Xu Le and Zhong Yanhua stayed here at this time.
"This time I went deep into Bermuda, and I felt more and more that it was too dependent on the Federation to have the power to protect itself.
If the Gary Corridor Twist Hole could protect Bermuda from Imperial annexation, why hasn't the Federation eaten Bermuda, a mineral-rich star field, for thousands of years?"
The slender mechanical arm shook slightly in front of him, as if the professor was shaking his head in mockery, and a delicate voice sounded in the cabin: "The Federal Charter stipulates Bermuda's absolute reading autonomy, even if the Federal people want to bypass the charter and swallow Bermuda, they need to see if the charter computer agrees." ” "In other words, when humanity begins to renew civilization in this star field, it will never be the Bermudians who will protect Bermuda, but the charter."
"It used to be me, and now it's that scrap metal under the Choral Bureau."
Xu Le asked, "If the civilization in this star field is inherited from the five-person team and the biomarker library in that battleship, why should the five-person team look at Bermuda differently?"
"The use of benchmark chips to supervise human society and prevent human society from going down the path of destruction like the ancestral star civilization is the true spirit of the Charter."
Philip calmly explained: "When the five-member team recast human civilization in the Sanxing system of Shanglin, they chose to carry out this kind of supervision by the charter computer, that is, me, and required that each natural person must be implanted with an identity chip on the back of his neck. ” "But after all, there is no precedent and experience for this approach, and it can even be said that it is a new experiment for human society."
"Although some of the five guys on the spaceship are lustful, some are good at drinking, some like to eat fish, and some like to eat meat, the common thing is that they are all homely, otaku and otaku always like to look ahead and worry about gains and losses, so they decided to set aside a star field for the so-called free people, which is the origin of Bermuda."
"I see."
Xu Le sighed: "The more I know the secrets of the human pioneer period, the more I feel that the group of statues on Charter Square is really remarkable, if there are no five people, how can human beings survive in the Sanlin Star Domain." ” Philip scoffed, "If those five guys were still alive, they would be very glad to hear what you had to say, they always thought that otaku could save the world." ” At that time, the experimental design of the blueprint of the new human civilization by the five-member group was a very shocking large-brush painting in Xu Le's opinion, but Zhong Yanhua, who had been listening to the story quietly, only cared about one other thing.
"Xu Fei, what is a house" "One, please don't call me Xu Fei, you can call me Xiao Fei.
Second, otaku is a special term with deep cultural meanings, which is difficult to explain. ” This kind of conversation with a taste of contempt and ridicule has happened countless times in the past three years on this broken spaceship, Zhong Yanhua and Philip always seem to be able to find new topics to attack each other, and every time at that time, Xu Le, who was so noisy that he was dizzy, always felt that he had raised a pair of chirping twin stubborn daughters, which was very uncomfortable.
He waved his hand to stop another debate, looked at the probe at the top of the mechanical arm with a serious expression, and asked, "What is the result of your calculations for the earthquake below the Biki Plateau of the Ink Flower Planet?"
After a long silence, Philip replied, "I don't have enough compute nodes and I don't have a full database to compare to.
But based on the data collected, especially the airborne particulate data collected over the Biki Plateau, I can only say that the vague speculation is very bad. ” "What a result" "The specifics are unknown."
Philip replied bluntly, "What I can tell you is that a bad bomb may have exploded under the Biki Plateau. ” Xu Le's eyes narrowed, and after a long silence, he asked, "Could it be the kind of bad bomb you told me about before that destroyed the ancestral star?"
"It's not that powerful, so it's not the big bad guy, it's the little bad guy."
Philip replied: "But the little villain is also very troublesome, after returning to the Federation, you do your thing, I will also do my thing, and I must stop it." ” After a pause, Philip said solemnly: "The most puzzling thing for me now is why the scrap metal under the charter bureau has not been found. ” Zhong Yanhua opened his eyes wide and said, "Maybe because you are not there, the charter computer has become stupid and not as easy to use as before."
"Although there have been many turns, I still want to thank you for the rare compliment."
Philip's voice was not emotional: "But don't forget, I've been looking at that scrap metal in various ways for the past three years, and I can confirm that it's not just getting dumber, it's more difficult to deal with than before. ” Outside the window is the dark universe, the long space voyage is not always beautiful under the gaze of the stars, Xu Le looked out the window silently, looked at the Federation that was not visible at all in front of him, and suddenly asked: "How sure are you?"
The control cabin suddenly became extremely quiet, and Xu Le's question was directly related to whether there was a chance in this war after returning to the Federation.

After a long time, Philip's slender and calm voice broke the silence and said calmly: "There are three more layers of filters in the central database under the Charter Bureau, and it is difficult for me to hack into the core program, but with the help of that person, I can easily read the thoughts of that scrap metal, although there are not many of them, but there is." ” "No matter how much, as long as there is, we have to try."
After 113 Federation Cosmic Standard Timers, the black ragged spaceship crossed the invisible border, left the Bermuda Star Field, and officially entered the Federation Star Field.
This space is extremely far away from the Federation forward base, and there is no alloy fortress the size of an asteroid in sight, only a series of pearl-like charter information checkpoints, and Shizumi is lined up in front of it.
I don't know what kind of consideration it was based on, but the black dilapidated ship did not choose to avoid these charter checkpoints, nor did it choose to choose the cracks in the glory of the charter, hiding its existence and stealth with difficulty and caution, but just broke through.
The massive hull blocks out the stellar glow of the nearest Rabbit Hunting System behind it, casting terrifying shadows onto those Charter checkpoints.
At the checkpoint, Chartist officials were watching the passengers returning from Bermuda behind the scanning aisle when they turned their heads to look out the window and saw a scene that they would never forget.
A mountain-like heap of black metal garbage, carrying an overwhelming shadow, silently swept overhead, flying towards the capital star circle.
