Chapter 2506 Strange Star Sea
That night, Li Yao and his friends had a small farewell banquet made of various canned food at the Blue Sky Market - not just for Li Yao, but for each other.
Because the situation on the front line changed, the latest order was sent from the command center of the four major electoral emperors and lords, requiring the "Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army" to set out in advance and block an important waterway of the Wanjie Business Alliance.
Therefore, Li Yao and Boss Bai's fleet will set off together tomorrow and rush to their respective battlefields.
Although it was a variety of canned food, they still had a great time eating each other. And halfway through the dinner, the boxing champion also came - with a tomato poached egg noodles full of insulated buckets.
In the end, with his inhumane, cruel and ruthless eyes, the bucket of noodles was snatched by Li Yao and Boss Bai and eaten separately.
The boxing champion looked so angry that he was about to die.
This small episode did not affect the atmosphere of farewell. Everyone stayed up all night, talking about the upcoming battle and the earth-shaking changes that will take place in the center of the Star Sea in the near future.
Until the east of the artificial sky was injected with a bright red color, Li Yao finally enjoyed his life and took Li Jialing to board the super-small starship commonly known as the "shuttle", and slowly drove away from the Star Port.
When they left, the "Arsonists Joint Fleet" dressed in the guise of "Loyalty and Righteous National Saving Army" was also ready to go. The super starships that had been strengthened and transformed by Li Yao, Boss Bai, Boxer, Xiao Ming and Wenwen rose into the air, gushing out colorful tail flames, gathering into a colorful torrent.
At present, the name of this fleet is limited to the very few people in the Blue Sky Market, and maybe there are very few people in the Xinghai border and Xingyao Federation.
But I believe that in the near future, it will rise extremely strongly in the center of the starry sea, burning the dazzling flames throughout the Pangu universe.
And Li Yao will also make a grand debut on another battlefield as another shocking world!
"Good luck."
The shuttle was about to break the air, and Boss Bai's blessing came from the communication channel, "Li Yao, you are a person who lacks nothing, occasionally you just lack a little good luck. I hope this time will be smooth sailing."
"Of course."
Li Yao grinned and responded, "We are going to rush out of the Pangu universe and stir up billions of stars. What is the small scene like the Empire?!"
...
Half a month later, in a deserted star field not far from the headquarters of the Wanjie Business Alliance, countless starship wreckage formed a vast torrent of garbage, like a cosmic expressway composed of gravel star belts.
This is the Star Sea Channel that is visible to the naked eye - the closest distance from one best jump point to the next best jump point.
Although, in theory, ultra-long-range star sea jumping can teleport a starship from any point in the star sea to another.
However, this jump not only has extremely high accuracy requirements for the star sea jump unit equipped by the starship, but also has extremely high intensity requirements for the passenger's body and even the soul strength, and the fuel consumption is also astronomical.
Sometimes, it is not even a matter of how much fuel is, but a large amount of ultra-high-purity and extremely precious special mixed fuel must be injected into the magic weapon of star sea jumping to start the ultra-long-range star sea jumping across hundreds of worlds.
Such special fuels, as well as raw materials for making special fuels - extremely rare crystal marrow and natural treasures, are often monopolized by the nobles and the military, and only elite warships are qualified to use them.
For ordinary merchant ships and transport ships, they cannot afford such expensive fuel, and the weak bodies of passengers are often unable to adapt to the damage caused by long-term decomposition into four-dimensional states.
Therefore, they can only jump from a vast world to a nearby vast world, and slowly reach their destination by using this "frog jumping" method.
Moreover, when performing short-distance jumps, in order to save fuel, we also need to find a place where the three-dimensional structure in the vast world is the most unstable, the most likely to tear the wormholes or even natural wormholes, which is the jump point marked on the star map.
From one jump point to the next jump point, the line may not be the shortest.
Using the gravity of planets and even stars is like being thrown out again and again by a cosmic slingshot, which can greatly increase the speed.
There are terrifying areas where star sea storms occur frequently and meteorite fragments ravaged between many jumping points, including garbage wreckage caused by human war activities, which may cause a fatal blow to merchant ships.
In order to utilize the gravity of stars and planets and avoid these dangerous areas, the channel between the jumping points becomes intricate curves. Only experienced old captains can walk closely to the channel completely and accurately, achieving a perfect compromise in time, safety and fuel consumption.
The battle between the four major families and the Wanjie Business Alliance often revolves around the blocking, opening up, escorting and ambushing of the waterway.
In the past two or three months, the squadrons of both sides have had thousands of short but cruel conflicts on various channels. Countless starships have failed to sink into the sand. Countless ordinary people and immortal cultivators have been buried in the cold starry sea. Countless precious goods have turned into garbage and drifted on the channel, becoming dim marks - just like the wreckage floating on the channel in front of you.
After three months of fierce battle, the waterway surrounding the Qihai Market was almost cut off by 50%.
But half of the remaining channel, the caravans traveled several times, showing a deformed prosperity.
There is no way, no matter how fierce the war is, life still needs to continue. As the headquarters of the Wanjie Business Alliance, the "Seven Sea Star Field" where the Seven Seas Market is located was originally the most stable wormhole in the world outside the empire, with the richest jump points and the most well-connected trade and logistics center. To a certain extent, it has similar characteristics to the imperial capital "Seven Seas, Sky Stars".
The goods from countless worlds and resource planets must be transited in the "Seven Stars Fields" before they can be sent to the world that urgently needs them.
These goods are either fertilizers that are urgently needed for cultivation, the core filtering unit of water purification system or air purification system, or special medicines to kill some kind of plague - in short, they are all essential things in various worlds, resource planets and star sea towns.
Without these goods, the entire town, the entire planet and the entire world would face crises, so no matter how fierce the war was, people would have to take risks, cross the war zone and go to the Qihai Market to trade.
At this moment, there was a fleet of more than a dozen dilapidated semi-armed merchant ships, carefully sailing on the wreckage-covered waterway.
Many wreckages still have extremely high temperatures, and even some magic weapon units in the depths of the wreckage are reacting violently. From time to time, clusters of colorful light balls explode, staring at this small fleet like deformed skulls.
These wreckages were the product of a fierce battle not long ago.
This shows that this channel is very likely to be a dangerous front, the fleets of the four major families, the fleets of the Wanjie Merchant Alliance or the extremely vicious star pirates... All kinds of jackals, tigers and leopards are lying dormant in the dark starry sea, ready to come out and bite them hard.
Even now, many deep eyes are staring at this small caravan, just because they are too inconspicuous and look too shabby to waste fuel and ammunition to rob them.
This understanding makes the caravan's navigation even more trembling and cautious.
At the end of the caravan, a merchant ship that looked hundreds of years old, rusty, fat and stupid, was sprayed with a silly black bear on the bow. Below is the name of the merchant ship - the Bear.
This is not a long-distance starship suitable for long distances, but is only suitable for ferrying and connecting around the world.
In order to adapt to the "frog jumping sail" that jumped many times in the starry sea, the owner of the Bear spent a lot of money to modify it, stacking many patches on the shell, making it look more bloated and clumsy - just like the dozen merchant ships in front of it.
Although it seemed like a retreat, these dozen merchant ships had never known each other before. They came from different worlds and were affiliated with some small merchants with only one power. They only met by chance at the previous supply star port and went together and gave each other courage.
Although more than a dozen merchant ships gathered together and died when they encountered the robbery of warships, they could at least bring some psychological... illusory comfort.
Huo Dongling didn't like this strange sea of stars outside at all, not at all.
Although her father is the owner and captain of the Bear, she has been playing on the Bear since she was a child and has grown up, and she often sails with her father, so that she thought she was the real "children of the Star Sea".
But in the past, they all cruised around their hometowns, traveling in calm and quiet, without much danger. Every star was extremely familiar with starry sea. Every time they went to a supply port, they had their father's old friends and old brothers greeted her, and gave her all kinds of strange fruits and toys. They could go home in less than ten days or half a month - that was Huo Dongling's habitual sailing.
But this time is different, this time is really different.
Huo Dongling and the Bear had never sailed so far. They had traveled through unfamiliar star fields and saw a bunch of twisted and deformed wreckage. They even heard a harsh alarm several times. They had to do their best to escape frantically with fuel. The Bear had never been so weak, and his father's face had never been so gloomy.
Huo Dongling even heard her father's panic in her dreams several times while sleeping and waking up - this is her father who is as strong as a tower and is not afraid of the storm of the Star Sea!
