I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

Op Tonde sat in the command cabin of the No. 6 ship, his hands firmly pressed on the operating ball.

Fine arcs of electricity continued to light up between his palm and the sphere.

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

The Quad-shaped No. 6 ship is composed of four main components.

There are three combat side cabins located in three directions on the outside, and a cabin in the middle.

These four parts are all symmetrical cone-shaped octahedron structures.

The total length of the three side cabins is twelve kilometers, and the length of the main cabin is sixteen kilometers.

The three side cabins form an equilateral triangle surrounding the main cabin and are connected to each other by rigid corridors.

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

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

First, explosive devices represented by fragmentation bombs.

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

Third, a huge number of finger-sized fully intelligent micro combat robots. These robots have developed the microstructure to the extreme, combining the ability of curvature flight and folding flight with an extremely 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 ejection acceleration. , when approaching an enemy, it can quickly transform its outer shell into a black hole-like substance, causing damage to the enemy through seemingly ordinary, but actually shockingly powerful impacts.

This kind of collision is not a simple physical contact. In the process, the mode will be rapidly changed according to the opponent's shield characteristics and material characteristics, and various different real energy level interference ripples will be released to the outside world. This cheap, high-quality and extremely difficult to resist micro combat unit has gradually replaced the old smart space fighters.

Fourth, a small amount of all-purpose armor controlled by pilots, armored pilots and warriors.

Fifth, a comprehensive defense system composed of multi-functional shields that can respond to different enemy attack methods, and composite armor with absolute rigidity.

The Unknown Fleet has never stopped technological innovation during its more than eighty-year voyage.

Compared with when it first set off, the battleship's combat effectiveness is now far from what it used to be.

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

This method includes not only equipment related to military offense and defense, but also the transformation of the human body itself and the use of various new drugs that stimulate potential.

Of course, the human body itself is a very precise instrument. To unleash a large amount of potential rashly is to overload the mechanical equipment, which will easily leave some sequelae.

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

The physical sequelae are easy to deal with, but the brain sequelae are really a big problem.

But no matter how high the price is, it is not worth dying in battle.

Moreover, when human armies are on the space battlefield, they often go out with no intention of returning, so the side effects don't matter.

People of different military classes have different types of potions.

For example, the gunner who is responsible for controlling the giant cannon in the fleet needs to take a comprehensive potion that enhances the ability to predict the direction of intuition on large-scale battlefields.

Armored pilots who need to use their armor to rush out need to take comprehensive medicine that enhances their logic ability, instantaneous reaction ability and thinking stability.

In addition, each comprehensive medicine is divided into different levels according to the strength of its medicinal effect.

At this time, Op Tangde had already injected his third bottle of A-level pilot's comprehensive potion and continued to work for a total of seventy-two hours.

He has his own fighting style.

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

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 caused some controversy, but Opp believed that he had a clear conscience and that his efforts and abilities were worthy of the job.

The last preset command was entered, and the effect of the medicine had just worn off, but Op did not faint. Instead, he slid back a certain distance along the chair and entered the medical cabin that was already on standby.

Various medical equipment started on their own, and at the same time, he began to observe the battleship's comprehensive information.

"The flare system is operating well. After the latest equipment adjustment, the torch power has been increased by 23.77% based on the original design parameters."

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

"Twenty seconds ago, the information exchange and communication with the No. 1 ship and the No. 2 ship were completed. Now the distance between us and the No. 1 ship is 1,630,000 kilometers. The No. 2 ship briefly started the curvature movement, and the distance from us is 1.63 billion. 17.9 billion kilometers.”

"An enemy warship has appeared in front of the No. 2 ship, and the military strength comparison index is 0.8."

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

Op rolled his eyes and cursed secretly: "You really think highly of me. What you give to others is 0.8, and what you give to me is nine to one. It's poisonous!"

He definitely wouldn't be able to beat him, but Op continued to scold him, so he didn't panic.

Six days had passed by the time the enemy actually came into contact. The fleet should have just left the enemy's surveillance area and could safely evacuate boldly.

Ship No. 6 is the most maneuverable high-speed battleship among the three torch ships. In addition, he, a top pilot who is not a top warrior but is infinitely close, serves as the captain to control the overall situation. There is also another senior top warrior who is responsible for the cutting-edge force. , if you want to escape, the chance of escape is not small.

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

Op nodded.

At this time, no news is the best news.

It's not that Opp doesn't care whether Tong Ling's freezing experiment is successful, but now his task is to cover the safe escape of the main fleet.

If you can escape, just wait for the integration data package sent by the empire.

After working continuously for seventy-two hours, he felt 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 the message, "Captain, there is bad news."

"explain."

"The compound-eye slave fleet in front of us has allocated one-third of its force, about 7,000 fast reconnaissance ships, to diffuse in other directions. The scanning range of 621 of them just covers the expected movement of our fleet. direction, there is a risk of exposure.”

Op suddenly sat up straight, sweating.

Although the unknown fleet has cut off contact with the No. 6 ship at this time, before departure, Opp and others verified the general direction of the unknown fleet's next movement with Qin Guang to avoid unexpected situations.

Op thought about it for about two seconds, his long arms almost scratching his scalp.

He turned to look at the lieutenants in front of him who were waiting for him to make a decision, as well as the top warrior.

Op stood up slowly and muttered in a low voice: "Transfer all the databases and raw materials related to the human cryonics experiment to the fire cabin carrying the embryos. By the way, also move the most advanced physical material synthesizer. Go up. Arrange for ten elite warriors to drive the control fire capsule to leave the No. 6 ship and head to the Perseus-Pisces super galaxy cluster at full speed."

"yes!"

Op looked around again and grinned, as if mocking himself, "Damn it, I thought it had only been a few days and I would have to break my promise. Everyone, enter the warp flight state in advance and activate short-range jumps intermittently! Go straight to the front to intercept. Fleet center area! We must engage in direct firefights with the enemy fleet within three days! And we must beat the opponent so hard that he must take back one third of his eyes! All engineering machinery with the ability to deploy real energy clouds When dispatched, we must arrive at the battlefield three hours before us and the enemy ships, and give me a battlefield environment with a diameter of more than 7 billion kilometers!"

"yes!"

A series of orders were issued, and after everyone dispersed, Opp put his hands into his trouser pockets and took out two things.

One is a pitch-black medicine bottle, which contains banned-grade comprehensive potions.

The other one is an old-fashioned printed photo.

In the photo, Tong Ling is in the middle, and Gao Xiaoqi and he are standing on the left and right of Tong Ling. Next to the three people, there are holographic projections of Bai Xiang, Sun Tongwen, Shan Centipede and others.

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

This is a group photo spanning time and space of everyone who has ever joined Tong Ling’s team over the decades.

Some people are still alive, most people have died.

Op's nose was slightly sour and he took a deep breath.

"Finally it's my turn."

More than ten minutes later, the adjutant reported back, "Captain, the personnel of the fire cabin have been selected and are about to depart. 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 spread out in the Perseus-Pisces super galaxy cluster and last forever. I don't want to break my promise. .Go ahead.”

…

Three days and six hours later.

In the void of the universe more than four thousand light-years away above the ecliptic plane of the Milky Way, a brilliant explosion of a fragmentation bomb briefly flashed, lighting up the endless starry sky.

…

Four days later, with Tong Ling's condition completely stabilized, the final step of the cryonics experiment - cryoresurrection - began in an orderly manner.

Ten days later, after recovering, Tong Ling once again drove the T100 to complete her own peak operation exercise.

One hundred and fifty million people in the nameless fleet fell into ecstasy at the same time.

This shows that human cryonics technology has completely entered reality from theory.

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

After waking up, she continued to hone her advanced combat skills day after day and year after year, while quietly waiting for the new, more reliable freezing technology to mature.

In the blink of an eye, ten years later, Emerson Colbert and many scientists in the vast empire worked together to finally digest and absorb the huge reference data produced by the first successful human cryonics using Tong Ling as a sample, and comprehensively improved this cross-border research project. The technology of the times has solved many shortcomings in it.

If you want to accept freezing, you must first be the best among humans, at least you must be the best in a certain field.

Then, one must undergo rigorous intuition training to continuously bring one's thinking pattern closer to Tong Ling's and become an unintentional person.

Personal intuitive thinking will be divided into several major categories according to each person's situation, including combat intuition, battlefield intuition, strategic intuition, scientific intuition, logical intuition and 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 still 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 the curvature space all year round. It is very short of special materials, so it has been delayed for nearly six years before it finally waited until the real energy material synthesizer was upgraded again before it could synthesize materials that were at the same level as the empire headquarters. The new freezing chamber can avoid step-by-step advancement during the cooling process and avoid causing severe pain to the operator.

In 2820, Tong Ling, then 147 years old, truly fell into a deep sleep.

Before her, nearly 80,000 people in the entire empire had passed the review of the main brain Fanxing and obtained the qualifications, and gradually fell asleep.

This quota will continue to expand in the future.

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

From the perspective of the entire civilization, as long as they have a choice, most people would like to see the world a thousand years from now, but it is impossible to satisfy everyone's wishes.

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

If everyone really wants to follow everyone's wishes, whoever wants to be frozen will be frozen, and all top talents will be put to sleep, which will lead to intermittent stagnation in the process of civilization, and a situation where the future is not grasped and the present is lost.

Therefore, Fanxing’s selection rules are very strict.

The highest priority goes to top scientists who need to wait for the results of lengthy experiments.

Secondly, there are some top talents from all walks of life who have shown amazing talents in a certain field, but the prerequisites for this part of related technology have not yet been completed.

Then there are the expedition personnel who carry the fire capsule and go to distant space in advance, and then it is the turn of the top warriors.

During the assessment process, Fanxing will not only analyze the subject's life trajectory, but also conduct a large number of simulations and deductions on future development based on the core framework of space-time topology.

Leaving aside the major events outside, the unknown fleet is facing severe challenges internally.

Since the nameless fleet cannot easily connect to the main network, it is difficult to get help from the nearly omniscient and omnipotent mastermind Fanxing, and it cannot conduct an indisputable all-round assessment, the selection work here has to be left to people to decide.

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

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 own name and comments, he hesitated.

"Qin Guang, 167 years old, is the commander-in-chief of the fleet and an admiral. He has extremely high military literacy and a keen sense of war. His comprehensive ability can be listed among the top ten famous generals since the 21st century. After comprehensive research and After rigorous discussions, the evaluation team unanimously determined that Admiral Qin Guang will definitely shine in the decisive battle. At present, the fleet has entered a stable submergence period. Admiral Qin Guang can give priority to using cryonics technology to extend his life in his spare time, and when necessary Wake up, the situation is the same as that of Chief Instructor Tong Ling."

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

Others can sleep, but he cannot.

Because he is the commander and supreme leader of the fleet, 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.

Let's leave this kind of good thing to others.

What is lacking is not the cold storage, but the quota to reserve people as resources.
