The tense atmosphere has spread to every corner of the Milky Way galaxy.
Not long after posting that Xingbo message, Feng Wu came to the main hall: "It's ready."
Lin Anan nodded, and as soon as she stood up, Xia Changluo grabbed her hand.
Xia Changluo looked at him, with worry clearly visible in his eyes. He opened and closed his mouth several times, but only said one sentence: "Be careful."
Lin Anan smiled at him with her eyes playing with it: "Don't worry, big brother, I will come back with good news."
After saying this, he no longer stayed in the main hall and left side by side with Feng Wu.
What Feng Wu meant by "ready" was that the task force members who were going to intercept the star ship carrying the Kylo Stone had already been selected.
If nothing unexpected happens, these team members will most likely come into close contact with the Kylo Stone, so each of them is very strong and is prepared to die.
During the past few days, Feng Wu quickly had a batch of lightweight protective clothing suitable for combat made, and Lin Anan also took the time to set up energy shields on these protective clothing to protect against Kylo Stone radiation.
Feng Wu took Lin Anan out of the palace and came to the First Legion’s base on the Capital Star.
The rest of the task force members were already waiting at the base's space station, where a huge battleship was parked, and next to the battleship were soldiers ready to go.
The leaders were Xiong Yingjun and Si Youlin.
Among the four commanders and deputy commanders of the First Legion, except Modxin who stayed in the Empire, the others all participated in this Kailo Stone interception operation.
Xiong Yingjun's face was unprecedentedly serious. He took two steps forward and said, "Boss, everyone is ready."
Feng Wu nodded, and stood in front of the crowd with Lin Anan.
The soldiers of the task force looked at them, their eyes piercing with fear and fear. Lin Anan's eyes swept over them one by one, and her heart was suddenly moved.
This operation was dangerous, extremely, extremely dangerous. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a life-or-death situation.
These soldiers knew that the road ahead was uncertain, but for the sake of the empire, they still chose to move forward.
Lin Anan heard Feng Wu whisper in his ear: "Anan, are you ready?"
Lin Anan nodded slightly: "Of course."
As is customary before departure, Feng Wu would say something to boost everyone's morale.
But this time, Feng Wu only said a few words: "For the empire, for the galaxy."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Anan saw that the soldiers' eyes became more determined and brighter. The words "For the Empire, for the Galaxy" resounded throughout the space station.
Plop, plop…
Lin Anan heard the strong and powerful rhythm of his own heartbeat, as if some power was surging out from his heart and almost immediately filled his torso and limbs.
This is a power called belief.
After the slogan ended, Xiong Yingjun looked at Lin Anan, and a naive smile that Lin Anan was very familiar with appeared on his face.
"Your Highness, can you please say something?"
Lin Anan also smiled: "I have no requirements for you, only one request." He said, "I ask everyone to protect themselves, and then... stay alive together and bring back victory."
On the battleship.
Feng Wu, Xiong Yingjun and Si Youlin were in the command room, Xiong Yingjun was sitting in the driver's seat and Si Youlin was his co-pilot.
Feng Wu and Lin Anan were behind, conducting the Kailo Stone interception simulation for the umpteenth time.
There are less than three days left before the five-day deadline announced for Galaxy X.
If you want to transport the Kylo Stone from the X galaxy to the Milky Way galaxy, you must pass through the rubble area.
The Empire and the Federation have already dispatched a lot of people to guard near the rocky area. In addition to Zhang Yifeng's organization, there are many other organizations or scattered pirates who have spontaneously gone to the rocky area for surveillance.
Such a united scene of three forces is extremely rare in the history of the entire Milky Way galaxy.
While Lin Anan and Feng Wu were conducting an interception simulation, Gu Yubai sent a message.
There were a lot of signs of Zerg activity in the star fields near the Federation. Their speculation was correct. Galaxy X did intend to make the Zerg the main force in attacking the Federation.
"In order to control so many Zergs to attack, the Zerg Queen must be with the people of the X galaxy to control them in real time." Gu Yubai said, "The controlled Zerg Queen is equivalent to having human thinking. This battle will be difficult to fight."
In previous Zerg invasions, although the scale was large and the number of Zerg was large, the Zerg queens themselves were not as intelligent as humans, so the Zerg's attacks were more based on instinct.
But now with the people from Galaxy X, the Zerg have a commander who makes up for their only shortcoming.
Gu Yubai's expression was solemn, and the dark color in her eyes revealed the great pressure she had been under recently.
"But this is also an opportunity." Lin Anan said, "If the Zerg Queen is in the hands of the people of the X galaxy, there will definitely not be swarms of Zerg guarding her."
Gu Yubai nodded: "That's right, as long as we can find the location of the insect mother and kill her..."
If the Zerg Queen can be wiped out in one fell swoop, not only in this Zerg War, but also in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, the Zerg will not have to be feared as long as a new Zerg Queen is not born.
Feng Wu said: "The Insect Queen should be on one of their warships."
"That's right." Gu Yubai said, "I have asked our soldiers to pay more attention to the traces of the Worm Mother. If your people find traces of the Worm Mother, please contact me as soon as possible."
Feng Wu nodded.
The battleship brought the task force members to the outside of the rocky area.
Lin Anan has known about this rocky area for a long time, but this is the first time he has seen the true appearance of the rocky area at such a close distance.
The reason why the rocky area is called the rocky area is because this area is filled with densely packed violent cosmic turbulence. The surrounding debris, interstellar garbage, etc. are sucked into the rocky area by the storm stirred up by the turbulence, becoming deadly hidden weapons of attack in the rocky area.
Even if a mecha is made of the hardest metal in the entire galaxy, if it is caught in the turbulence of a rocky area, it will be crushed into pieces like a piece of soft meat.
There were people who didn't believe in it and wanted to try to pass through the rocky area, but except for a few people who turned back in time halfway through, all the others never returned.
Lin Anan stood in the command room, looking at the rocky area displayed on the transparent screen in front of her.
Even from such a distance, he could hear the whirring and crackling sounds made by the many turbulent currents mixing together.
"It's just like a large meat grinder." Lin Anan muttered, "It's amazing that the people from Galaxy X can find a way to cross this area."
"It is a rule." Feng Wu said, "It is recorded in history books that every once in a while, the cosmic turbulence in the rubble zone will not be so violent, which is called the mild period."
Lin Anan asked: "How long is a period of time?"
"A hundred years at least." Feng Wu said, "A hundred years ago, technology was not so advanced, so this discovery has not been thoroughly verified, but now it seems that we can take advantage of this opportunity to pass through this area and reach the other side of the rocky area." "I see." Lin Anan pondered for a moment, "Then how long will this mild period last?"
Feng Wu: "The records say it was about five years. The longest one lasted nearly six years, and the shortest was about three and a half years."
"Then this time..." Lin Anan calculated the time, "If the mild period starts from the year Alpha appeared, it has been five years now."
Feng Wu nodded: "Yes, at least five and a half years."
"In that case," Lin Anan pulled the corner of her mouth, but a cold light flashed across her eyes, "then let them never return."
At this moment, Si Youlin, who had been sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly took off his headset.
"Boss." His face was solemn, "Team 16 detected traces of a suspected starship in the rocky area."
Lin Anan's eyes focused, and she walked forward with Feng Wu to look at the impact coming from Team 16.
The violent rocky area appeared as a grayish white under the detection light, with a flash of scarlet, appearing on the screen for less than a second.
"It only appeared for a second..." Feng Wu frowned.
"Yes, so they can't be sure if it is the target starship."
"It's possible that the starship's defense system was damaged by the rocks and repaired in time." Feng Wu said, "Let's go to the monitoring area of Team 16."
They soon arrived at their destination.
Halfway through the journey, Team 16 received a lot of news that the same scarlet signal was detected many times. On two occasions, more than one signal appeared on the screen.
Feng Wu's speculation was correct. Even in the mild period, the rocky area was quite dangerous. The star ship carrying the Kylo Stone was too large. It was too difficult to pass through the rocky area unscathed. It was also very normal for the stealth mode to be damaged during the period.
It was through this plan that their detector found traces of Galaxy X.
After the warship arrived at the monitoring site, the captain of the 16th team requested a call: "Captain, should we fire the tum energy cannon at the target?"
"No, we can't fire." Feng Wu said without hesitation, "Hide your tracks and ambush them until they leave the rocky area before taking action."
The other party seemed a little puzzled, but the soldier's instinct to obey orders made him lower his head and answer: "Yes!"
After the call, Lin Anan asked, "Don't you need to explain to him?"
“No need to explain, they know what they should do.”
Lin Anan smiled and looked at the scarlet signals that appeared more and more frequently on the light screen.
They couldn't fire the TUM energy cannon. No, to be exact, they couldn't make any attacking moves against the star ship before it left the rocky area.
If the starship really explodes in the rocky area, the large amount of Kylo Stone carried in the starship will be broken up by the turbulent flow in the rocky area and scattered throughout the entire rocky area.
By then, the rubble area will become a large radiation zone, and the degree of harm will only be greater.
Lin Anan stared at the flashing red signal, took a deep breath and said, "Brother Wolf, I'm ready."
Feng Wuqing hummed, squeezed his hand tightly and then quickly released it: "Okay."
——They are going to board the starship carrying the Kylo Stone.
