The Changhe fleet is still "divided into two groups".

One group, with more than 600 warships, has lost the power to sprint at full speed and glides forward at a speed of tens of kilometers per second.

This part of the Changhe battleship formation flew peacefully and silently.

The other group of hundreds of warships are still spitting out tail flames ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of kilometers, constantly accelerating, and sprinting with all their might.

They can no longer respond to all commands that require manual response.

The Changhe fleet, with a total personnel of nearly 100,000 people, no longer has a single living person.

The name Changhe has been deleted from the starry sky history book of the human fleet.

If there is a day of victory, Shen Changhe and his fleet will be engraved on the hero monument.

The onboard weapons have been emptied, but the many detection equipment carried on the fleet are operating automatically.

Even with the latest anti-interference shielding layer, the operation of these high-precision equipment is still not stable. They are subject to strong interference and are in a silent state most of the time. Only occasionally can they be activated by the automatic restart setting, and the indicator lights flash like a backlight, sending back some fragmented information fragments.

However, this information is too fragmented to guide the people in the rear positions.

Only the most superb operators, who control the best equipment just right and have sufficient computing power, and these operators happen to have a very high level of cognition in cosmic physics and a broad and deep grasp of various comprehensive disciplines, can quickly find some useful intelligence from these fragmented information.

There are such people on the Tianxin.

Dong Shan, and several other master scholars from the particle project team.

A few days ago, after completing the last transformation of Chen Feng's individual combat system, this group of masters became idle in the job sequence.

But they are all people who can't sit still, especially old man Dong, whose symptoms are the most serious.

Old man Dong came up with a crazy idea and volunteered to snatch the control task of the gravitational wave field detector from the signalman.

It's true that this group of old gentlemen who used anti-aircraft guns to kill mosquitoes did a good job.

They have strong learning ability, coupled with extremely sharp thinking, their proficiency quickly caught up with and surpassed that of regular signalmen.

And because they are masters in their own fields, they can come up with some wonderful ideas from time to time just to control a detector, and do the same thing better than others, and innovate the operation guide of the detector.

After all, this is a new thing that has only been born for two months, and there is a lot of room for development in terms of operation alone.

In just a few days, this group of old men revised the operation regulations dozens of times, raising the operation level of the gravitational wave field detectors of the entire army, making the signalmen of other fleets happy and painful.

Chen Feng had asked Tang Tianxin to arrange Ou Qinglan and all the master scholars to go to the life capsule.

These old men did not want to disobey orders, but were reluctant to leave their posts, so they simply moved the equipment into the life capsule.

It's true that this plan is surprisingly effective.

The surface of the escape capsule already has an anti-interference protection layer, and with the built-in protection of the equipment, the anti-interference ability of the equipment can be theoretically improved.

What's more subtle is that due to the particularity of the gravitational wave field, no matter how many shielding layers there are, its performance will not be affected at all.

Now, this group of old men joined forces and spent about ten seconds to find something from the information shared synchronously by the detection equipment on the Changhe.

They discovered a strange energy fluctuation.

The energy level of this energy fluctuation is far lower than the quark level, and the frequency makes people feel a little familiar.

Its frequency is very similar to the energy fluctuations that the particle project team has been dealing with for nine months, which are only heard but not seen in the particle carrier.

Moreover, this frequency fluctuation is still increasing, like the heartbeat of a person who has just woken up, gradually speeding up.

Ou Qinglan, who is in charge of the overall command, immediately reported this important information and suggested that other fleets with gravitational wave field detectors specifically detect this frequency of energy fluctuations.

Including Chen Feng, who was jogging through the corridor and was about to go to the command module to dock with the catapult launcher, and quickly left the Tianxin and rushed to the front line, all the high-level commanders in the command sequence, totaling nearly 100,000, received this information.

Chen Feng suddenly stopped in his tracks, and a bad premonition surged in his heart.

Sure enough, after just one minute, almost all gravitational wave field detectors responded.

Even the fleet and armed space station in the third line of defense in low-Earth orbit had similar discoveries, or even stronger!

In the three-dimensional star map of the solar system in Chen Feng's eyes, more than 500 gravitational wave field detectors that are in the on state are dazzling green dots, sparsely distributed throughout the solar system.

Among the twelve major legions, almost every legion has at least dozens of them.

Every time a detector detects a similar response, the green dot turns into a red dot.

The stronger the response, the brighter the red dot.

Chen Feng scanned the star map, and the uncertain premonition in his heart burst out like a huge wave.

In an instant, he felt a chill in his bones. The chill rose from his spine and went up to the back of his neck like a vine along the bone marrow, causing itching and tingling wherever it passed.

Finally, the chill gathered on his forehead.

Chen Feng was a little dazed, and he saw double.

This is a self-protection mechanism in human emotional control.

He really didn't want to admit it.

But the fact is, he has realized something.

He didn't know what was going on, but he knew something was wrong.

He couldn't figure it out.

The latent bombs were obviously gone, but why did those bombs still appear quietly near the human fleet?

He began to doubt himself and his life.

What is the point of all my efforts?

Is it true that no matter how hard I struggle, all I get is hopelessness?

This pessimistic mood was like a silkworm gnawing on mulberry leaves, devouring his soul bite by bite.

Chen Feng was almost completely swallowed up by the fear.

He had tasted the taste of death too many times.

He was not afraid of death, but he was more afraid of death.

No one was braver than him, but no one was more afraid than him.

Chen Feng turned around abruptly and called out the Morning Breeze system again, switching to the most familiar humanoid armor form, and then compressing his body into the most flexible close-fitting humanoid armor.

Bang!

Chen Feng collapsed the metal floor of the corridor with one foot and shot towards the command cabin like lightning.

At the moment he was rushing back, the quantum network had already transmitted the latest battle report in real time.

The explosion began.

The first to explode was not the Changhe Fleet that was at the forefront of the front line and was already charging from behind, nor was it the patrol assault battleships and other combat units that followed closely, nor was it the main combat corps of the Uranus Region 1 Corps, such as the Tianxin Fleet, K3 Fleet, and Fenglei Fleet Four Fleets that followed.

It was the rear area.

The four major Earth Guard Fleets and armed space stations surrounding the Earth's orbit.

In the space star map, you can see the green dots representing the human fleets distributed throughout the solar system. They start to turn red from the inside, go out, and spread out quickly, just like throwing a fire on a prairie covered with hay in winter, and then a gust of wind blows.

The sparks from the earth spread along the direction of the wind, toward the Uranus Region I fleet, and swept through the second line of defense distributed in a fan shape - the four legions in the outer orbit of Jupiter, and also disappeared without any resistance.

When passing by the porthole, Chen Feng looked out.

In the distant starry sky, the fleets belonging to humans in the rear line are still sailing quietly in the universe, and the little lights representing these fleets are rushing here.

Those are the four major armies outside the orbit of Jupiter.

This is the visual scene.

But Chen Feng knew it clearly in his heart.

All of this was a visual error caused by the speed of light not being fast enough.

They still seemed to exist, but that was the scene from a few minutes ago.

In fact, these fleets had turned into dust and disappeared without a trace.

Turn around and continue running.

When Chen Feng returned to the command cabin, it was already in an inexplicable panic.

The eyes of most people were empty.

Everyone knew what had happened in the rear line.

The huge fleet of mankind was reduced to ashes.

In at most another fifty-five seconds, the explosion would cross the distant starry sky and spread to their own battleships.

Tang Tianxin sat upright in her command chair, her teeth clenched so tightly that veins popped out from the back of her hands that were gripping the armrests of the chair.

Her pretty face looked a little sullen and angry.

Her eyes were still focused on the scene collected by the magnified optical telescope in front of her.

The moon-sized invader battleship was flying faster and faster, approaching rapidly.

It flew in a straight line, ignoring all the artillery fire that was directed at it along the way.

The battleships of the Changhe Fleet were the first to approach it, but they failed to hit it accurately. Instead, they were like water flowing over rocks in the middle of a river. In accordance with the dynamics of fluid mechanics, they involuntarily dispersed to both sides and passed the edge of the invader battleship.

Then, as they passed the midpoint of the sphere, the warships slowly disappeared from front to back, turning into tiny specks of dust in the starry sky.

This was a silent destruction, just like the many times in the past when human spaceships collided with the barrier.

The remains of the Changhe Fleet continued to be thrown into the depths of the universe, not even qualified to become eternally floating space junk.

As for the artillery fire fired by other patrol combat units following behind, it also failed to fall on the sphere.

The attack trajectories of energy weapons and live ammunition weapons were changed, and the warships of the Changhe Fleet passed by the invader warships and were disintegrated.

"Retreat! Everyone retreat! Linbu, take all the Morning Breeze warriors and swarm fighters and retreat! Whether it is a battleship or a mothership, all members of the battleship, leave the battleship!"

Chen Feng seized the command from Tang Tianxin and gave orders loudly.

He didn't know what else he could do, and he could only try it in vain.

But he looked at the other functional officers in the command cabin except Tang Tianxin.

These people were all wearing regular clothes and had no Morning Breeze system.

Chen Feng added, "If you are not wearing space suits, just fire all your weapons, then press the push button and try to crash into it like the Changhe fleet. We can't do more."

He grabbed Tang Tianxin's shoulder, turned around and ran back.

Tang Tianxin yelled, "What are you doing! You let me stay here! No commander would be a deserter!"

Chen Feng picked him up lazily, covered her mouth, and ran away desperately, leaving a footprint on the metal floor.

He said, "A short escape is just for a better counterattack next time!"

Tang Tianxin was stunned, "What? Counterattack?"

Chen Feng nodded heavily, rushed to the escape hatch, threw her in, and then pressed the door closing button and the launch button.

Before the door closed, Chen Feng looked at her again and said slowly, "There will be a day of counterattack, I promise you. Now you go! You go now!"

His words sounded a bit nonsense to Tang Tianxin.

But Chen Feng really needed this to cheer himself up.

He told himself he couldn't give up.

Something different must have happened this time.

As long as I understand this, I will be closer to the truth. Even if it is just one step in a long journey, everything I have done will not be meaningless.

Whoosh!

The engine of the escape capsule ejected a scorching plasma stream, which was fired like a cannonball.

The engine power was too high, and the impact of the plasma stream exceeded the bearing capacity of the launcher's protection system, melting this part of the Tianxin's hull. The

alarm in the battleship sounded again, the automatic repair measures were activated, and many channels were automatically closed, isolating the launch port of this escape capsule from other parts of the battleship.

Reddish metal droplets were flowing from the melted gap, and then quickly condensed into a bead curtain.

The gap was just enough for Chen Feng to switch to a space fighter with full power, crash through the bead curtain, and fly out.

He followed closely.

Chen Feng connected the voice communication of the escape capsule, and Ou Qinglan's panicked voice sounded first, "What's the situation now? What should we do?"

Chen Feng did not answer her.

He himself did not know what to do.

But Tang Tianxin, who had quickly regained her composure, made the decision.

"The battle is over. We have no hope of winning. But in the escape chambers of each flagship, there are 100,000 frozen embryos! Let's go! We must escape!"

"As long as we leave safely, then humanity still has me, you technicians, and Chen Feng! There is still hope!"

She decided to desert.

This decision may be painful, but she did not hesitate at all.

Chen Feng also thought it was a good idea.

Although there was almost no hope of a successful escape, there was finally a goal.

Run, run as far as you can.

The space fighter that Chen Feng incarnated was fully powered. The thruster, which was the most advanced technology and the most powerful performance to date, could release plasma at a speed close to the speed of light to provide reverse thrust. It exploded like a cannon, pushing him up hard.

Chen Feng caught up with the escape capsule and controlled the buckle under the space fighter to lock it tightly, allowing the escape capsule's speed to increase further.

Then the space fighter and the escape capsule flew out diagonally, leaving at a right angle to the displacement line of the invader warship.

Only so many people could be saved, and Chen Feng could not care less.

The voice of Lu Xianfeng, the head of the first district army, rang in his communicator again.

"All fleets command the flagship to evacuate the lifeboat! Each choose an escape direction!"

Obviously, Lu Xianfeng also thought that Tang Tianxin's decision was correct.

Then Lu Xianfeng added a new order.

"All other combat units, regroup and charge! All swarm fighters, all Morning Breeze warriors, all soldiers wearing spacewalk equipment, all get out of the ship! Launch a continuous attack on the invading battleship! Buy time for the escape boat!"

Thirty seconds later.

Chen Feng vaguely felt a buzzing sound coming from behind.

He turned around and looked.

The thousand battleships of the Tianxin fleet finally began to explode in succession.

Starting from the mothership and escort ships at the rear, the explosion spread all the way, then swept past the command flag ship in the middle, and finally swept the battleships at the front.

Further ahead, hundreds of battleships of the Changhe Fleet, whose crews had all died and could only glide on their own, also exploded one after another, turning into dazzling small suns.

From then on, the main battle fleet built by humans with all their efforts was completely destroyed.

The shock of the explosion came from behind, approaching, and seemed to swallow up the escape capsule.

Chen Feng switched his form, from a space fighter mainly based on power propulsion, to a giant shield form that was originally only used on the ground and was responsible for frontal protection.

He bathed his back in the plasma jet from the escape pod, and held up his shield to face the aftermath of the explosion.

Tang Tianxin was horrified and asked him to get out of the way.

But Chen Feng didn't have time to pay attention to her.

He was smiling.

Yes, he found that this explosion was different from the last one.

Chen Feng was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that his death was worthless.

This was what he was afraid of.
