Volume 3 Chapter 50 Alien Mothership
The angular and ferocious warship cuts through the universe at a speed twice the speed of light.
The curvature engine caused the surrounding space to distort slightly until the battleship suddenly slowed down.
The space gradually returned to stability from its distortion, and the ferocious warships also reduced their speed from twice the speed of light to only one thousandth of the speed of light in a very short period of time, and were still decreasing rapidly.
It was not until this time that the full picture of the warship, which had left the curvature navigation state, was clearly revealed.
It was a huge warship that was 12,000 meters long and about 3,000 meters wide and high.
And there is not just one such warship, but ten in total.
Lights were flashing all over the battleship, and it was equipped with all kinds of facilities.
At this time, as the warships slowed down, the staff of various departments on the ten warships quickly began to work.
Various detection devices searched this airspace, and at the same time, small reconnaissance planes were released. Various weapons and equipment were pointed in all directions, guarding against any possible dangers in outer space.
At the same time, a large number of fighter jets are anchored in the warship, ready to attack at any time.
These are typical space motherships.
Filled with a sense of power, danger, and dominance.
Owning any one of them is enough for a force to gain a foothold in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way.
Owning more than a dozen ships would be enough to expand influence to several galaxies.
But now, ten of them suddenly appeared in this remote galaxy.
"Are you sure the other party decided to trade here? But this is just a remote star system with nothing in it."
"It is precisely because there is nothing here and it is far away from the border of the Republic that it is safe enough for them. After all, they are interstellar merchants at best, but at worst, they are a group of jackals who will do anything for profit. How dare they get too close to our territory?"
"Okay, but do you really think they have Chaos Energy? As you said, they are just a group of businessmen pursuing profits. How could they have something as precious as Chaos Energy?"
"I also think it's impossible, but the Congress believes that it's worth a gamble for the sake of chaos energy."
"Using the warp engines to gamble? Every warp engine in the Republic is hard-won. They were exchanged from advanced civilizations at a great cost. There are less than 300 of them in the entire Republic. And don't you think that ten warp engines can be exchanged for one unit of chaos energy. The conditions are too generous? So generous that it seems like a trap."
"Yes, even if it's one thousand or ten thousand warp engines, the price is too cheap. But as you said, there are less than three hundred warp engines in the entire Republic. If they want too many, we may not dare to take the risk."
"I still can't believe them."
"I don't believe it either, but don't forget that they are just a group of hyenas wandering among the stars. To them, no matter how precious Chaos Energy is, it can only bring disaster. On the contrary, the Curvature Engine is what they need most, and we can provide them with Curvature Engines. Even if we have less, they will still make a lot of money."
"But where do they get the Chaos Energy from?"
"Where else could it be? Of course they were stolen from a weaker civilization. They are just a group of hyenas wandering in the universe."
Both parties in the conversation were silent for a while, until the ten motherships, whose speed had been reduced to one ten-thousandth of the speed of light, were getting closer and closer to the core area of the galaxy.
"The asteroid belt ahead is the agreed trading location."
"Why is there an asteroid belt here?"
"It is said that a long time ago, a certain advanced civilization conducted an experiment here. Who knows?"
"Advanced civilization! What if there is an advanced civilization that knows that we have Chaos Energy?"
The figure who spoke shuddered at the thought of this possibility.
"So, before the higher civilizations notice it, we must use up the Chaos Energy immediately. This is the Congress's plan. As long as we use it up, it will be meaningless even if the higher civilizations know about it."
"I hope they really have Chaos Energy in their hands."
Shortly after the ten motherships arrived at the asteroid belt, ten warships were coming from another direction, heading towards this galaxy at twice the speed of light.
However, compared with the previous ten warships that were neatly arranged and of uniform specifications, these ten looked much more disorganized and dilapidated.
Although all ten warships are over 10,000 meters in length, each has a different shape. Some are rectangular, some are triangular, and some are even diamond-shaped.
At the same time, the battleship was also equipped with various miscellaneous equipment that was extremely incompatible with the style of the battleship itself. It was obvious that they were dismantled and installed from other battleships.
To put it bluntly, it's a hodgepodge.
Just like this fleet, it's also a hodgepodge.
This is indeed the case. These ten warships are a force in their own right, and they just got together temporarily this time.
Also, because the spoils obtained from this vote were a bit exaggerated, in order to avoid being robbed during the transaction, they got together to trade and give themselves courage.
At this time, the captains of each of the ten warships were conducting a video conference using holographic projection.
Ten people of different looks and races gathered together, speaking in their own languages, which were then translated in real time into a language that the other party could understand.
"As long as this deal is done, we can each get one of the ten warp engines. With the new warp engine, whether we make the battleship bigger or build a new battleship, it will be enough to double the power of each of us."
"Ten warp engines, aren't they too few? That's chaos energy!"
"Everyone knows that it is chaos energy, but it is also a deadly poison. Before the news spreads, we should quickly switch to the warp engine. We can still survive. You don't really think that there are no spies on your respective ships? If others know that we have chaos energy, our death will come."
"But I still don't want to give up. At least I want a few more warp engines."
"The Mali Republic has a limited number of curvature engines. If we ask for too much, they will be more cautious. At least they will make sure that we really have chaos energy before they make a move. But by then, there is no guarantee that the news will have spread. It will be dangerous to keep this thing in our hands for one more day. Let's make less money and put it in our pockets."
"That's right. It's worth it after all."
"Hahaha, speaking of which, the Norse civilization is really naive. Such a weak civilization holds Chaos Energy, yet they dare to ask me about its specific value. I realized something was wrong at the time. Sure enough, they have Chaos Energy."
"It's not their fault. How could a civilization that just left the planet not long ago possibly understand Chaos Energy? The most they know is that it is very precious. Unfortunately, they never thought that the value of Chaos Energy is enough to make us take risks, and it is also enough to destroy a weak civilization like theirs."
