Chapter 623 The Age of Sleep



Op Donde sat in the command cabin of the No. 6 ship, his hands pressed tightly on the control ball.

Fine arcs of electricity continued to light up between his palms and the ball.

In front of him was a huge simulation projection of the entire battleship.

The No. 6 ship, shaped like a quadrident, was composed of four main components.

There were three combat pods located in three directions on the outside, and a pod in the middle.

These four components were all conical octahedron structures that were symmetrical from front to back.

The total length of the three pods was twelve kilometers, and the length of the main pod was sixteen kilometers.

The three pods surrounded the main pod in the shape of an equilateral triangle, and were connected to each other by rigid galleries.

The No. 6 ship has a full loadout of 20,000 personnel, with 3,000 personnel in each of the three side cabins, and more than 10,000 personnel in the more fully functional main cabin.

The main combat parts of the No. 6 ship are of five types.

First, blasting devices represented by fragmentation bombs.

Second, super cannons represented by median real energy beam cannons that can shake the laws of triple space.

Third, a large number of finger-sized fully intelligent micro combat robots. These robots have developed miniaturized structures to the extreme. They have both curvature flight and folding flight capabilities in a very small size. At the same time, they can use self-priming particle absorption modules to maintain a speed infinitely close to the speed of light after a long period of medium jet acceleration. When approaching the enemy, they can quickly transform their shells into black hole-like matter, killing the enemy through seemingly ordinary but actually powerful collisions.

This collision is not a simple physical contact. During the process, it will also quickly change modes according to the shield characteristics and material characteristics of the opponent, releasing various different real energy level interference waves to the outside. This inexpensive and extremely difficult to resist micro combat unit has gradually replaced the old intelligent space fighter.

Fourth, a small number of all-purpose armors operated by pilots, armored pilots and warriors.

Fifth, a comprehensive defense system composed of multifunctional shields that can deal with different enemy attack methods and composite armor with absolute rigidity.

The Nameless Fleet has never stopped technological innovation during its more than 80 years of voyage.

Compared with when it first set out, the combat effectiveness of the battleships is no longer what it used to be.

Every technological revolution in the external empire will be synchronized to the fleet and transformed into new means.

This means includes equipment related to military offense and defense, as well as the transformation of the human body itself and the use of various new drugs to stimulate potential.

Of course, the human body itself is a very sophisticated instrument. Rashly stimulating its potential is equivalent to overloading the mechanical equipment, which can easily leave some sequelae.

This thing is like the stimulants used by athletes eight hundred years ago, and it usually follows the basic rule that the greater the benefit, the greater the price paid.

The sequelae of the body are easy to solve, but the sequelae in the brain are really a big trouble.

But no matter how great the price is, it is not as good as dying on the battlefield.

Moreover, the human army is on the space battlefield, and many times they go out without planning to return, so the side effects don't matter.

People in different arms have different types of drugs.

For example, the gunner who is responsible for operating the giant cannon in the fleet needs to take a comprehensive drug in the direction of associative strengthening to improve the intuitive prediction ability of large-scale battlefields.

The armored pilots who need to fly out with armor need to take a compound medicine that enhances their logical ability, instant reaction ability and stability of thinking.

In addition, each compound medicine is divided into different levels according to the strength of the medicine.

At this time, Op Tangde has already injected the third bottle of Class A pilot compound medicine and has been working continuously for a total of 72 hours.

He has his own combat style.

He has programmed more than 90% of the micro-combat robots in the entire battleship into his combat procedures. At the same time, he has also set up relatively broad preset operating procedures for multiple working groups such as the bomb delivery group and the giant artillery group.

Op treats the entire No. 6 ship as a huge armor.

As a top pilot, he controls the entire battleship.

This brought him a huge workload and also caused some disputes, but Op thought he had a clear conscience and that his efforts and abilities were worthy of this job.

After entering the last preset command, the effect of the drug just wore off. But Op did not faint. Instead, he slid back a distance along the chair and entered the medical cabin that had been on standby.

Various medical equipment started automatically, and at the same time, he began to observe the comprehensive information of the battleship.

"The torch system is operating well. After the latest equipment adjustment, the torch power has been increased by % based on the original design parameters."

This torch system is the chaotic quantum signal transmitter released by the No. 6 ship in order to deliberately expose its whereabouts.

"Twenty seconds ago, we completed information exchange with Ship No. 1 and Ship No. 2. We are now 1.63 billion kilometers away from Ship No. 1. Ship No. 2 briefly activated its curvature motion and is now 17.9 billion kilometers away from us."

"Enemy warships have appeared in front of Ship No. 2, and the military strength ratio is 0.8."

"According to the information sent back by the curvature space probe in front, a large number of enemy ships have appeared eight light years ahead of our ship. We are expected to meet the enemy in six days. The military strength ratio between the enemy and us is 9:1."

Op rolled his eyes and cursed inwardly, "You really think highly of me. You only give 0.8 to others?" The odds are nine to one for me. It's poisonous!"

There's no way they can win the fight, but Op cursed and didn't panic.

When they actually meet the enemy, six days will have passed, and most of the fleet should have just left the enemy's surveillance zone. They can evacuate with confidence.

The No. 6 ship is the most maneuverable and high-speed battleship among the three torch ships. In addition, he is not a top fighter, but a top pilot who is infinitely close to him. He is the captain and controls the overall situation. There is also another senior top fighter in charge of the cutting-edge force. If they are determined to escape, the chances of escaping are not small.

The last comprehensive message read: "It has been seventy-six hours and thirty-three minutes since we set out, and we have not received any information from our fleet."

Op nodded.

At this time, no news is the best news.

It's not that Op doesn't care whether Tong Ling's freezing experiment is successful, but his current mission is to cover the main fleet's safe escape.

If he can escape, he can wait for the integrated data package sent from the Empire. After

being busy for 72 hours in a row, he was a little sleepy. Just as he was about to close his eyes, the person in charge of the intelligence side of the No. 6 ship suddenly received a message, "Captain, a bad news."

"Speak."

"The Compound Eye Slave Fleet in front of us has separated one-third of its forces, about 7,000 fast reconnaissance ships, and diffused in other directions. Among them, the scanning range of 621 ships just covers the expected direction of our fleet's movement, and there is a risk of exposure."

Op sat up straight with cold sweat.

Although the No-Name Fleet and the No. 6 Ship had already lost contact, before setting off, Opp and the others had verified with Qin Guang the general direction of the No-Name Fleet's next move to avoid any unexpected situations.

Opp thought about it for about two seconds, and his long arms almost broke his scalp.

He turned his head and looked at the adjutants in front of him who were waiting for him to make a decision, as well as the top warrior.

Orp stood up slowly and whispered, "Transfer all databases and raw materials related to the human cryogenic experiment to the Spark Pod carrying the embryo. Oh, and move the most advanced energy material synthesis instrument up there as well. Arrange ten elite warriors to drive and control the Spark Pod to detach from the No. 6 ship and head to the Perseus-Pisces Supercluster at full speed."

"Yes!"

Op looked around again and grinned, as if mocking himself, "Damn it, I never thought that only a few days have passed and I would have to break my promise. Everyone, enter the curvature flight state in advance and activate short-range folding occasionally! Go straight to the center of the intercepting fleet in front! We must engage in direct fire with the enemy fleet within three days! And we must hurt the enemy so much that they must retract one-third of their eyes! All engineering machinery with the ability to deploy real energy clouds are dispatched, and must arrive at the battlefield three hours earlier than us and the enemy ships, and arrange a battlefield environment with a diameter of more than 7 billion kilometers for me!" "

Yes!"

A series of orders were given, and when everyone dispersed, Op put his hands in his trouser pockets and took out two things.

One was a pitch-black medicine bottle, which contained a banned drug-grade compound medicine.

The other was an old-fashioned printed photo.

In the photo, Tong Ling was in the center, with Gao Xiaoqi and him standing on Tong Ling's left and right respectively. Beside the three of them, there were holographic projections of Bai Xiang, Sun Tongwen, Shan Wu and others.

There were seven people in the front row, and behind these seven people were holographic projections of hundreds of people.

This was a group photo of everyone who had joined Tong Ling's team over the past few decades, across time and space.

Some were still alive, but most had already died.

Op's nose felt a little sour, and he took a deep breath.

"It's finally my turn."

More than ten minutes later, the adjutant replied, "Captain, the spark crew has been selected and is about to set off. Do you want to say something to them?"

Op shook his head, "Please tell them for me. Just say that I once promised someone that humans will flourish in the Perseus-Pisces Supercluster and live forever. I don't want to go back on my word. Go."

...

Three days and six hours later.

In the void of the universe more than four thousand light years above the galactic ecliptic plane, a brilliant explosion of a fragmentation bomb briefly flashed, illuminating the endless starry sky.

Four days later, as Tong Ling's condition was completely stable, the last step of the human cryogenic experiment, cryo-reanimation, was started in an orderly manner.

Ten days later, the revived Tong Ling once again piloted the T100 to complete her own peak operation exercise.

The 150 million people in the Nameless Fleet fell into ecstasy at the same time.

This showed that human cryogenic technology had completely moved from theory to reality.

Tong Ling's personality changed and she became more taciturn.

After waking up, she continued to hone her already perfect combat skills day after day and year after year, while quietly waiting for the maturity of more reliable new cryogenic technology.

Ten years passed in a flash. Emerson Cobert and many scientists in the Pangda Empire worked together to digest and absorb the huge reference data produced by the first successful human cryopreservation with Tong Ling as the sample, and fully perfected this cross-era technology and solved many of its drawbacks.

To accept cryopreservation, one must first be the best among humans, at least the best in a certain field.

Then, one must undergo rigorous intuitive training, constantly bring one's personal thinking mode closer to Tong Ling, and become a heartless person.

Individual intuitive thinking will be divided into several categories according to each person's situation, including combat intuition, battlefield intuition, strategic intuition, scientific intuition, logical intuition and many other aspects.

In this way, although top scientists, military strategists, politicians, businessmen, writers, and philosophers do not have the same super physique as Tong Ling, they also have a considerable chance of being successfully frozen.

The Unknown Fleet is a bit more troublesome.

After all, this is a lone army that has been submerged in curvature space for many years. It is very short of special materials, so it was delayed for nearly six years before the energy material synthesis instrument was upgraded again. Only then could a new type of freezer consistent with the level of the empire headquarters be synthesized, which can avoid the step-by-step advancement in the cooling process and avoid causing severe pain to the surgeon.

. In 2820, Tong Ling, who was 147 years old, really entered a deep sleep.

Before her, nearly 80,000 people in the entire empire had passed the evaluation of the main brain Fanxing and obtained qualifications, and gradually entered sleep.

This quota will continue to expand in the future.

This means that humans have entered the space age from the information age of the 21st century, and then entered the current sleep age.

However, from the perspective of the entire civilization, if there is a choice, most people want to see the world a thousand years later, but it is impossible to satisfy everyone's wishes.

The essence of human cryonics is the optimal allocation of resources to avoid waste of resources.

If everyone's wishes were really fulfilled, and everyone was frozen, and all the top talents were dormant, it would lead to intermittent stagnation of the civilization process, and the situation of not catching the future but losing the present first would occur.

Therefore, the selection rules of Fanxing are very strict.

The top priority is those top scientists who need to wait for the results of long experiments.

The second is some top talents in various industries who have shown amazing talents in a certain field, but the prerequisites for this part of the relevant technology have not yet been completed.

Then there are some expedition personnel who carry the spark capsule to the distant space in advance.

During the assessment process, Fanxing will not only analyze the life trajectory of the recipient, but also conduct a lot of simulations and deductions on future developments based on the core framework of space-time topology.

Let's not talk about the big events outside, but the Nameless Fleet is facing a severe test.

Since the Nameless Fleet cannot easily connect to the main network, it is difficult to get the help of the nearly omniscient mastermind Fanxing, and it is impossible to conduct an indisputable all-round assessment. The selection work here has to be decided by people.

Qin Guang formed a comprehensive evaluation team composed of nearly 10,000 scholars. It took nearly three years to screen out a first batch of frozen lists of 200,000 people.

Qin Guang did not dare to be careless. After the final list was determined, he personally reviewed and implemented them one by one.

He had no objection to most of the names on the list, but when he saw his name and the evaluation, he hesitated.

"Qin Guang, 164 years old, fleet commander, admiral. With extremely high military training and a keen sense of war, his comprehensive ability can be listed among the top ten generals since the 21st century. After comprehensive verification and rigorous discussion, the evaluation team unanimously determined that Admiral Qin Guang will definitely shine in the final battle. At present, the fleet has entered a stable submerged period. General Qin Guang can use human cryogenic technology to prolong his life in his spare time and wake up when necessary, which is consistent with the situation of Chief Instructor Tong Ling."

Qin Guang stretched out his finger and silently crossed out his name.

Others can sleep, but he can't.

Because he is the commander and the highest leader, he must endure the greatest loneliness and shoulder the heaviest mission.

He is the soul of the fleet.

He must stay awake every moment until the end of his life.
