* Swoosh! *
After two days of continuous high-speed travel, Calamity finally arrived at its destination and exited the wormhole.
The moment they left the grotesque wormhole, Fu You and Xia Fan, who were in the command room, saw the legendary circular cosmic storm at the same time.
In the dark starry sky, a storm with a strange light was spinning at a crazy speed, like a giant top standing in the universe.
The centrifugal force generated by the rotation kept the storm stable and would not move around randomly.
This was the luck of the Scorching Star Region. If the cosmic storm could still move, it would sweep everything in its path, completely tearing apart galaxies, stars, and all matter in its path.
It was the first time that Xia Fan and Fu You had seen a circular cosmic storm with their own eyes. They were shocked by the magical power of nature and felt a pressure on their chests, making it difficult for them to breathe.
After more than ten seconds, Fu You shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile, "The world is vast, but the power of the universe is still the greatest. I'm afraid that even the strongest superhuman in Cang Yue can't survive such a crazy cosmic storm, right?"
Xia Fan nodded and agreed with Fu You.
"Yes, the power of humans is still insignificant compared to the universe. Legend has it that if the level of a superhuman is high enough, they can break a star with a punch. Now it seems that, to deal with such a cosmic storm, breaking a star with a punch is not enough.
Fu You laughed. He knew that as a human, it was absolutely impossible to break a star with a punch.
"What should we do next?" Fu You asked, "I don't want to get close to this thing. If I get sucked in, I'll be dead."
Xia Fan said while observing the radar system, "Judging from the energy distribution, we don't have to worry about being sucked into the cosmic storm. The circular cosmic storm is in a state of expulsion, which means that it will constantly throw out the matter in the center of the storm instead of absorbing the surrounding matter.
"If it rotates in the opposite direction and absorbs the surrounding matter, it would have become a terrible black hole."
Fo You blinked his eyes, "What kind of stuff are you talking about? To put it simply, we can't get into the cosmic storm, right? "
Xia Fan said, "I don't think so. If we follow the direction of the storm and use the acceleration of the storm to spin around, we might be able to cut in diagonally. But let's forget about it this time. I'm afraid Calamity won't be able to withstand such a fierce impact."
Everyone had their flaws. Fo You's flaw was that he didn't understand technical issues. Xia Fan, on the other hand, had studied many aspects and was considered an all-rounder. Therefore, the two of them complemented each other. What Fo You didn't understand, Xia Fan did.
After explaining the characteristics of the circular cosmic storm to Fu You, Xia Fan began to steer Calamity around the cosmic storm.
Xia Fan wanted to see if there was anything that had once belonged to Heaven's Wings among the debris.
Due to the strong interference of the storm, the radar system was greatly weakened, so this kind of search was somewhat based on luck.
Unless Calamity got close to the wreckage, it would be impossible to discover it. Furthermore, most of the materials thrown out by the cosmic storm were the wreckage of planets, not the fragments of battleships.
After some time and effort, Xia Fan finally found the first metal waste. The metal signal on the scanner made both Xia Fan and Fu You very happy.
They carefully steered Calamity closer to the signal source. Because of the energy waves released by the cosmic storm, the battleship was like a small boat sailing in the sea, constantly shaking.
The ship's stabilizing system had to work very hard to stabilize Calamity, but the people inside the cabin could still clearly feel that the ship continued to sway.
"It's the wreckage of a battleship!" Fu You shouted after seeing it through the floor-to-ceiling window.
Xia Fan continued to steer the battleship closer and at the same time, activated the Stasis Entanglement Beam.
* Swoosh! *
A white light shot out and hit the wreckage. The white light instantly wrapped the wreckage, and with the energy, it dragged it in the direction of Calamity.
As a battleship, the two Stasis Entanglement Beams installed on Calamity were actually prepared for battle.
Once this beam hit the enemy ship, it would immediately act like a net, holding the enemy ship tightly, causing it to be unable to accelerate or warp.
After holding the enemy ship, the next step was naturally a critical attack, using the six main cannons on Calamity to launch a fierce bombardment, completely tearing the enemy apart in one breath.
As an elite frigate produced by the Royal Shipyard, Calamity's weapon system was extremely powerful. Ordinary frigates usually only had one Stasis Entanglement Beam, but Calamity had two.
Ordinary frigates usually only had two main cannons, but Calamity had six. At the same time, it was also installed with a missile launch system, a space bomb release system, and many electronic warfare and anti-electronic warfare equipment.
In any case, the Royal Shipyard had always been clear-minded. They didn't care about the cost, only the performance. They specialized in manufacturing such expensive battleships. Except for the rich, ordinary people couldn't afford them at all.
From another point of view, there was naturally a reason for it to be expensive.
Now, Calamity was very close to the circular cosmic storm. Ordinary ships, especially the larger and less stable civilian salvage ships, wouldn't dare to operate at such a close distance.
However, Calamity didn't have such a problem. Although the hull would also shake, it wouldn't threaten its safety.
It was precisely because of this distance that civilian salvage ships didn't dare to approach that this piece of wreckage was left behind by the salvage companies that had been here before. If it were further away from the cosmic storm, it would probably have been taken away by others and sold for money.
After the Stasis Entanglement Beam brought the wreckage around Calamity, the mechanical arm appeared.
The largest warehouse at the bottom of Calamity opened, and a mechanical arm stretched out from inside. The arm was 125 meters long, with three flexible mechanical fingers at the top.
The mechanical fingers opened like human hands, grabbed the wreckage, and placed it in the warehouse.
At this time, the warehouse would close and re-inject air.
It didn't take long for the wreckage to be collected in warehouse number one. Xia Fan and Fo You left the command room excitedly and went down to the warehouse.
* Swoosh! *
As soon as the sealed door opened, Xia Fan saw a piece of wreckage in the center of the warehouse. From the shape, it should be a part of the cruiser's scanning system. It was seriously damaged, and after being hit by the explosion and the cosmic storm, it had long been unrecognizable.
"Is this the wreckage left behind by Heaven's Wings?" Fo You ran over. Although he didn't understand, he still lifted the wreckage to take a look.
"I hope not," Xia Fan thought silently.
If this wreckage belonged to Heaven's Wings, it proved that Heaven's Wings' spaceship was destroyed in this battle. Destroying the spaceship meant death, and Xia Fan didn't want his people to die.
The wreckage was not too big, about 3.5 meters in diameter, and it was cylindrical. It was no problem for Fo You to lift it.
After looking for a while, Fo You suddenly widened his eyes in excitement and said to Xia Fan, "I found it. Although this wreckage doesn't belong to Heaven's Wings, it belongs to Cang Dragon!"
"Look at this nut mark. I remember it belongs to the Acorn Fruit Squadron under the Cang Dragon Army."
"Both Cang Dragon and Lunar Hidden Army are very large super armies. There are brigades under the army, and below the brigades are squadrons and squads. Each squadron has its own unique mark."
Xia Fan looked in the direction that Fo You was pointing. Indeed, there was a nut mark on the surface of a centrifuge that was still intact.
It seemed that Fo You was right. This wreckage belonged to Cang Dragon, and there was no doubt that it was Heaven's Wings who destroyed this spaceship.
Thinking of this, Xia Fan felt very proud. Although he had never seen it, he could imagine how the Heaven's Wings clan killed their way into Cang Moon and destroyed the arrogant Cang Dragon and Lunar Hidden Army one by one.
"What a pity." Fo You sighed and said a little bitterly, "It would be better if this was the wreckage of Heaven's Wings. After all, my ancestors were also members of Cang Dragon and Lunar Hidden Army. I feel uncomfortable when I think about how badly they were bullied by Heaven's Wings.
"By the way, Hei Zi, who has a good relationship with you in the training camp, seems to have an ancestor who was the deputy captain of the Acorn Fruit Squadron. Maybe the ancestor of Hei Zi's family died here."
Fo You began to show off his knowledge. Although this guy knew nothing about technology, he knew much more than Xia Fan about the history of Cang Dragon and Lunar Hidden Army, as well as the current distribution of forces in the Cang Moon Universe and which families had special abilities.
After all, he was Little Buddha and was used to dealing with the big shots of Cang Moon since he was a child.
"What should we do with this thing?" Fo You touched his chin and asked, "Although it is the wreckage of Cang Dragon, it seems to be of little value. Should we send it to Hei Zi later?"
Xia Fan shook his head. "Wouldn't that make things difficult for Hei Zi? What should he do? Worship the wreckage as a dead ancestor? "
"That's true. Hei Zi's family will definitely not be happy to see this thing." Fo You said, "Then we should just throw it away. It takes up space."
Xia Fan thought this was a good idea. After all, he had achieved his goal. The wreckage was enough to prove that a fierce war had broken out here.
There was no doubt that it was his family who had destroyed the cruiser under the Cang Dragon's command.
What was left was to go back and find a way to get a ship that could safely pass through the cosmic storm. Then, he would come back and take a look at the core area of the storm.
Although Calamity was strong, it could only get close to the cosmic storm. It could not safely enter and exit the storm. There was still a huge gap between entering and exiting the storm safely. Xia Fan did not want to gamble with his life.
He would go back and buy a more suitable ship. Then, he would install all his existing mechanical cores and energy cores. It would be best if he could find a defense core. Then, there would definitely be no problem.
"Anyway, we still have time. Let's continue looking. Maybe there are other good things," Fo You said excitedly. Being able to find the wreckage of the Cang Dragon Army made Fo You feel very interested.
With that said, the two of them left the warehouse and prepared to return to the command room to continue looking for wreckage around the cosmic storm.
Suddenly, at this moment, something strange happened!
The red alarm light began to flash, and there was a burst of sharp and ear-piercing alarm in the corridor of Calamity.
"What's going on?" Fo You was startled.
"Not good!" Xia Fan sped up and rushed to the command room, saying, "It's the automatic alarm system. Another battleship wants to lock onto us!"
* Swoosh *
Xia Fan sped up and rushed back to the command room in one breath. At this time, the alarm had become more intense, and the red alarm light was blinding.
Xia Fan came to the radar system screen and took a closer look. He suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air.
Just when he and Fo You went down to the bottom of the warehouse, a fleet appeared around them.
Due to the severe interference around the storm, the system did not give any warning. It was not until this moment, when the fleet approached quickly and entered the radar range that the automatic defense system realized that something was wrong.
However, it was too late to say anything now. The fleet was coming aggressively.
There were three main battleships, six cruisers, and as many as 23 destroyer and guard-class auxiliary battleships!
