The working ships that had been doing nothing, including those mining ships, suddenly became more aggressive after the reconnaissance ship approached a distance.
They retracted the mechanical tentacles fixed on the meteorite and turned to approach the high-speed reconnaissance ship.
Because the reconnaissance ships need to obtain first-hand intelligence, the distance between them is also very close.
Now the problem arose. These ships, which were originally used for mining, actually began to attack the reconnaissance ship.
Yellow beams of light were emitted from these ships.
"avoid!!"
"Avoidance is ineffective!"
"It hit us!"
"No Void Shield Breaker!"
Inside the ship, a series of sounds were heard. Crew members from various departments were busy. Some were manipulating the ship to dodge, some were adding more power, and some were starting to replenish energy for the void shield.
The captain calmly asked, "How strong is the enemy's attack?"
"How about the damage to the void shield?"
The next moment, the psychic in charge of the void shield reported: "Captain, the enemy's attack is very weak, and the damage to the void shield is very low."
Hearing this, the captain's heart was relieved. He ordered: "Fight back!"
"Test the opponent's defense!"
Although the high-speed reconnaissance ship is used for reconnaissance, it is not completely powerless. After all, it is a converted frigate ship with a length of more than 200 meters.
There is also an S-slot weapon position on the bow.
After receiving the captain's order, the main gun at the bow began to charge, and soon, a red laser beam was fired from the bow.
"boom!"
The laser beam hit the enemy almost instantly, but a circle of electric shield also flashed around the outside of the opponent's ship.
"The other party also has a shield!" the weapon operator immediately reported.
But the captain looked at the opponent's shield and was stunned for a moment, because he felt that this did not seem to be the void shield used by humans.
But now he had no time to think about these things, he continued: "Don't worry, keep attacking!"
"This is obviously a non-combat ship. Their shields must not be thick enough. Shoot through it!"
"Yes! Captain!"
The ship's main gun continued to charge, and after several consecutive firings, it finally penetrated the shield of an enemy ship.
The red laser beam penetrated the enemy ship, stopping it in its tracks.
But there were more mining ships around that stopped working and chased the high-speed frigate from all directions.
In the distance, several enemy ships that looked like armed units were chasing after them.
The situation was no longer something this high-speed frigate could withstand.
So the captain took a deep breath and ordered: "Start the psionic jump engine, let's go!"
"yes!"
"Start the psionic jump engine!"
"Engine charging!"
After a period of charging, a dazzling light flashed, and the ship disappeared without a trace from the real universe and entered the subspace.
The mining ships that lost their targets in an instant, as well as the armed ships approaching in the distance, also lost their targets at this time.
After losing its target, the mining ship chose to return directly to its original working position.
The armed ships flew to the location where the high-speed reconnaissance ship disappeared, searched there for a long time, and then left.
When you look into these armed ships, you can see that they are not driven by living beings, but by machines.
These mechanical life forms were communicating silently at this moment, and the signal lights on their heads kept flashing.
"Unusual variables discovered..."
"Variables... clear!"
Finally, after a period of time, these machines began to return to their former calmness. They left here and returned to their original positions.
It was as if nothing that happened here had happened.
At the same time as the armed ship left, they also took away the mining ship that was destroyed by the high-speed reconnaissance ship and flew towards the base behind.
As for the high-speed frigates that were traveling through the subspace, the psychics looked in the direction of their jump.
After waiting for a long time, the captain asked doubtfully, "They didn't catch up?"
"It seems so."
A staff officer said: "Looking at their technology, maybe they don't have the technology to navigate the subspace?"
This speculation was recognized by many people, so after traveling through the subspace for a while, the captain suddenly ordered: "Turn around, let's go back and take another look!"
The high-speed reconnaissance ship turned back towards the galaxy and jumped out of the subspace outside the galaxy.
Instead of rushing into the interior of the galaxy, they made a big circle and waited for the psychic jump engine to cool down.
When they orbited to the right position, they entered the galaxy again.
This time, their movements became more cautious, and the power of disguise was turned to the maximum.
After entering the galaxy from another direction, they advanced cautiously, avoiding ships that were mining minerals in asteroid belts or even on planets.
Finally, as they continued along, they came across a shocking scene.
Using the observation equipment, they discovered a huge star base in space.
Although the style and construction concepts of human star bases are completely different, their functions are the same.
The size of this star base is even much larger than the star base of Li Xin and his team in the Tianjin Four Star System.
However, the defense is completely different. From the outside, this star base is composed of more functional buildings and modules.
The armor doesn't seem to be very thick, which may be due to the different material properties.
On one side, there was an obvious spaceport, where many engineering ships and mining ships that they had seen before were docked.
On the other side, it looked like a military port, where more than a dozen armed ships that had previously chased the high-speed reconnaissance ship were docked.
Suddenly, a staff officer asked in surprise: "What is that?"
The captain looked over as instructed by the staff officer, and the next moment he froze in place, constantly enlarging the image of this location in the sighting equipment.
After a long while, he said, "This... seems to be a metal that has been preliminarily smelted?"
More and more people came closer to observe the scene.
Someone murmured, "This really seems to be a pre-smelted metal. I've seen this kind of metal in our star base."
"But... why are there so many?!"
Behind the star base of an unknown civilization, square metal blocks at least hundreds of meters high are suspended there.
The metal blocks are connected to each other, and at a glance, you can hardly see the end of them.
The captain exclaimed in amazement: "It's...!!!"
