Chapter 1415: on tenterhooks

The captain, after a brief thought, gave the order.

At this time, the subordinate who reported the situation to him showed a little hesitant expression.

"What's wrong?"

Noticing the other party's expression, the captain immediately asked.

"Captain, I'm afraid we need to leave the team temporarily..."

"Because there's no way the restoration work can be done here."

The subordinate replied hesitantly.

"Why?"

Hearing this, the captain suddenly became angry.

"My lord, let the power engineer on board explain it to you..."

After the subordinate finished speaking, he moved away, and a tall and strong man who looked similar to a human came up from behind him.

He was at least five meters tall, and his whole body was covered with extremely strong muscles.

But although he has a human appearance, his skin is red, and it is covered with special lines like fish scales.

"Pasata!"

When the captain saw the power engineer, he immediately stared at him and called out his name.

The power engineer came to the other party and made a gesture of greeting gracefully.

"My lord, let me explain to you why we cannot repair this ship here."

"Because of the impact just now, a crack appeared on our hull with a length of 175,000 kilometers and an average width of about 10,000 kilometers."

"Although it looks unremarkable on our hull, this crack is fatal, and we have to use a lot of related materials to repair it."

Hearing the words of the power engineer Passata, the captain suddenly frowned.

He asked in a deep voice.

"Are there no repair materials on our Star Destroyer?"

"No indeed, my lord."

"This material is the secret material of the empire. It can only be used in the starport of the empire. The purpose is to prevent the loss of materials and related technologies. Even our supply ships do not carry such materials..."

"So I regret to tell you that we have to break down here."

Passata replied seriously.

Hearing this, it was obvious that the captain was not that happy.

"This crusade mission is extraordinary! Without the cooperation of one of our Star Destroyer motherships, it is very likely to put our companions in mortal danger!"

"Can you open the energy barrier and forcefully travel through the wormhole?"

he asked again.

He actually had an answer to this question himself.

It's just that miracles can happen in fantasy.

However, Passata denied his idea on the spot.

"My lord, once the antimatter engine is turned on, we will sail at a speed twenty orders of magnitude faster than the speed of light. If such a crack appears on the hull of the Star Destroyer, it will definitely be fatal to us."

"Not to mention the super-large black holes that may be encountered during the voyage, and the terrible squeezing force generated when time and space are distorted."

"Sailing at this speed and cracks in the hull will cause the entire power structure to be destroyed, and we will disintegrate in an instant..."

Passata's answer silenced the captain.

The other members of the command center were all silent at this moment, and no one dared to speak.

"Immediately explain the situation to the headquarters! Request to send a rescue ship! At the same time, contact our fleet commander and let them carry out combat missions according to the original plan!"

After confirming that there was no hope of saving himself, the captain decisively issued an order.

It is jointly commanded by the top speakers of Gaia civilization, Prome civilization, Valoran civilization, Pulit civilization and Noah civilization.

At this moment, they are having an emergency meeting.

"Just got an unconfirmed message!"

"Traces of a fourth-level civilization appear in the sixth star field!"

King Gaia got straight to the point, and spoke in a deep voice to the other speakers.

Originally, they were having a headache because of the sudden invasion of the New Dawn International Pirate Alliance.

Troops are being dispatched and support troops will be dispatched urgently to the Rock Fortress.

Now I heard the news again.

Immediately, the expressions of these speakers changed at the same time.

"Level 4 civilization? Why did they appear in the sixth star field?"

King Prome's eyes were full of surprise.

They don't have the strength to fight against the fourth-level civilization now...

The tenth area is regarded as the "protection area" of Orion's spiral arm. Generally speaking, civilizations above level 4 will not come here.

But there are always exceptions to everything. It is difficult to guarantee that some level 4 civilizations will not come here to plunder when they lack resources...

At this time, the other speakers also looked at King Gaia with burning eyes.

King Gaia himself felt a little uneasy.

Hearing this, he shook his head.

"The news has not yet been finalized, and our intelligence and early warning system has only received early warning data for less than a second."

"Through such a short data, we can only simply judge that the invasion of the sixth star domain is a fourth-level civilization, and we cannot analyze more information, including the identity of the other party, and the purpose of their actions, etc..."

Seeing what he said, King Pritt snorted softly.

"You don't have to worry so much, do you?"

"Maybe they are just passing by!"

"It's not the first time those high-level civilized hooligans have done this kind of thing! Hmph..."

King Prieter seemed indignant when he talked about these things.

Apparently, the Fifth Star Region was not uncommonly invaded by other high-level civilizations in the past.

People don't even say hello to you.

Come and go as you want.

Fortunately, those civilizations above level 4 are often just passing by.

They didn't attack the fifth star field at will...

The words of King Prieter awakened these speakers.

"Yeah, maybe they are really just passing by!"

"This kind of thing happened often in the past. The opponents of those fourth-level civilizations are often at the same level as them. They have no time to pay attention to our low-level civilizations..."

King Noah nodded, expressing his approval of such an analysis.

In fact, there was one sentence he didn't say.

But everyone present at the scene knew better.

Those civilizations that are stronger than them can crush them to death at will. It is definitely not because of kindness, but because there is no need for it for the time being.

Because their existence does not threaten others.

If any of the five third-level civilizations suddenly announces that they have completed the certification of a fourth-level civilization, it may be the end of the tenth district...

Because the civilization next door to them will feel threatened and take military action against the Tenth District.

"For now, let's get rid of those interstellar pirates first!"

"In addition, where did the earth civilization go? Why are there no traces of them?"
