After twenty-one consecutive days of sailing, on April 17, the train finally approached the designated area.
Chen An perked up and learned about the situation ahead from the screen on the console.
In fact, you can't see much. You can only see a huge colorful nebula in front of you, forming a huge circle.
The jump node within the circle is the destination of this trip.
"How long will it take to reach the Nebula Circle?"
Eight hours
"Okay, no rush."
During this period, all the competitions on the train have come to fruition, and overall the event was a success.
Eight hours later, the train plunged into the nebula, leaving a huge hole in its wake.
But if you broaden your horizons, you will find that such voids are insignificant in the entire nebula.
"Fuyao, have you found anything?"
[A star system has been discovered, only 1.8 billion kilometers away. Do you want to stay?]
It would take a while to fly 1.8 billion kilometers, so Chen An called Luo Yu over and discussed the information with her.
It turned out that the train arrived half a month earlier than predicted.
Luo Yu: "The second train may not come in for ten days."
Chen An: "Are you sure?"
"I'm not entirely sure, but there's something similar in my prophecy. In a month, a train will create a star network where we can all access public information."
Chen An said: "Tell me more about the situation of each star system."
"There are 126 star systems in this star field, which means it can only accommodate 126 trains. In principle, the closer the star system is to the jump point, the larger it is and the more resources it has."
"The Star Domain Network will number the galaxies. If we want to occupy enough resources, it's best to control one of the first thirty galaxies."
"The number of trains will exceed 126, and there will be a lot of fighting. The closer you are to the main road, the more vulnerable you are to attack, so I don't recommend choosing a system on the edge of the main road."
Chen An asked, "What does 'main road' mean?"
"The entire star field is surrounded by a nebula, forming a circular shape. Its center is the jump point, but before it's opened, it's just a dark area. Using this as a standard, four main roads are drawn at 90-degree angles in all directions. These are the four main directions leading into the star field."
Luo Yu drew on the screen as she spoke, giving a rough outline of the star field.
It is clear at a glance where No. 1 is and where No. 126 is.
"I see. We're approaching System 94. Fuyao, go around and we'll enter the main road."
Ten days were too tight, and Chen An didn't want to waste time in the small galaxy.
Five hours later, the train finally entered the main road, which was an extremely spacious route without many obstacles.
The train is approaching Galaxy No. 29. Should we stop to mine for resources?
Chen An asked, "If we mine energy crystals at full capacity, how many can we get per day at most?"
In the previous twenty days, Chen An had been manufacturing mining ships and mining robots, and had pushed them to their limit.
[If you collect 100% of the energy crystals, you can get 20 million units per day]
Chen An said firmly: "The train will immediately dock in the star system and mine energy crystals at maximum capacity. Passengers will not get off the train at all. We will change positions once a day to make the most of our time."
Galaxy No. 29 is very large, twice as large as the galaxy that destroyed the dog-headed people before.
However, this type of galaxy is only considered upper-middle level here.
As the train parked in the star's orbit, the passengers thought they were about to get off.
However, they found that there were densely packed mining ships moving back and forth quickly outside the train, with no intention of letting them out.
At the same time, the train dispatched a large number of reconnaissance balls, which are a more convenient reconnaissance equipment than reconnaissance ships.
Luo Yu’s prediction may not be completely accurate, and Chen An needs to confirm it.
Five days later, reconnaissance balls were found at key locations throughout the star field, proving the prophecy was correct.
"Five days have passed, and we need to determine our final destination."
The train has now arrived at Galaxy No. 1 and is frantically collecting energy crystals.
Number One is the richest galaxy, with a total of 200 million energy crystals discovered, but most of them are not easy to collect.
The top ten galaxies are all close to the main road and relatively rich in resources, making them the focus of competition for trains. If we want to develop safely, it's best to avoid these galaxies.
Chen An nodded. "I think so too. In fact, any of the top thirty star systems are not bad, and basic resources are redundant. As for energy crystals, no matter how much, it will not be enough for me, so there is no need to pursue more or less. I want to settle down between the 10th and 20th. Use your big data to analyze it for me, and prioritize safety."
Fuyao analyzed for ten minutes and came up with the best result.
[I suggest the train dock in system 17]
"reason."
[This galaxy is rich in resources, enough for us to use normally for nearly ten years]
[This galaxy has approximately 150 million units of energy crystals, which meets the requirements]
[This system is not on the main road, and there are a lot of meteorite fields on the edge. Firstly, it will hinder other trains from entering, and secondly, we can calmly deploy defenses nearby.]
[The last reason is that Galaxy 17 is located in a special place. A small part of it is located in the first galaxy circle, which makes it easier for us to reach the jump point.]
Since all galaxies revolve around the jump point, they can be roughly divided into six galaxy circles, and the situation becomes worse as you get closer to the periphery.
Chen An agreed with Fu Yao's analysis.
"Star System No. 17 will not move. In the last five days, we will go to the area surrounding No. 17 to mine. This way, we can return to No. 17 as quickly as possible."
In order to be more convenient and quick, Chen An sent a fleet into Galaxy No. 17 first and established a preliminary defense circle inside.
In the next five days, the train entered the 14th, 15th, 16th, 18th, and 19th star systems respectively.
