Chapter 811: Chapter 483: Seeing Isn’t Always Believing_1
District 7 of the Shadow Galaxy’s spatial octant.
In the void, a sudden violent spatial fluctuation erupted.
In the next instant, a battered bullet-shaped ship burst out of the cosmic gravitational subspace that connected to the Shadow of the Sun.
It was the Morrowind No. 2.
Despite numerous difficulties, Freddy managed to complete the final warp.
Freddy was the first and likely the last warp pilot in human history. He overcame all known and unforeseen difficulties, accomplishing the most difficult task.
In a sense, the terrifying cosmic creation of black holes was the plaything of Freddy.
The rear half of the ship had suffered severe damage, emitting white smoke and sparks.
This was not Freddy’s fault.
His operation had no issues.
The moment Morrowind No.2 completed the warp and exited the medium layer subspace to enter the first layer of curvature subspace, it was hit with a white beam cannon from behind by a pursuing Prism Ship.
This shot easily broke through the outdated shield of the Morrowind No.2 and destroyed roughly 35% of the functional modules at the rear of the ship.
This was inevitable.
Not being completely shattered by the first shot was already a huge success.
In the vacuum environment of the universe, the “burning” of matter is drastically different from that inside the atmosphere.
It looked like there were no sparks, only faint twinkling lights.
The white smoke that scattered was not the residue of intense oxidation but the particles reformed by the fission and disintegration of matter under high-energy reactions, similar to a nuclear fission explosion.
Each visible spark in space now would have been a small nuclear test in the 21st century.
The main engine of Morrowind No.2 was destroyed, and the main antimatter supply module was also penetrated, causing a chain explosion in the rear part of the ship.
Luckily, thousands of backup engines were working together, and the secondary energy network that directly extracted energy from biological batteries could still maintain the energy consumption of the shields on the front half of the ship.
The modular ship power supply designed by Freddy had come into effect.
Morrowind No.2 began to move forward with inertia at nearly the speed of light as it exited the curvature space.
At this time, countless metallic debris and pieces of rock blocked their path. The remnants of the previous months’ grinding warfare had filled up the entire space.
If someone looked at the Shadow Galaxy from afar with their naked eyes, it would look not like a planetary system but a comet composed of dust and various sizes of debris.
Without the shield, even a fingertip-sized piece of metal debris could have caused severe damage to the ship.
But Freddy had already considered this scenario when exiting the medium layer subspace, so he had to preserve the backup energy supply at all costs.
Now, with the composite shield supporting it, the ship would not instantly be destroyed.
Small debris along the way was first pushed aside by the outermost force field shield, and larger debris could only be slightly displaced before further colliding with the second spatial tear shield, breaking into smaller pieces and then being repelled by the second force field shield.
If they encountered overly sturdy alloy debris, the pseudo-curvature membrane layer in the fourth layer of the composite shield would be stimulated, causing violent spatial fluctuations to push away the heavy matter without affecting the ship inside the membrane.
0.01 seconds later, Morrowind No.2 had arrived at the original position of the Prism Ship formation.
During the charge, the rear half of the 10-kilometer long Morrowind No.2 was gradually disintegrating, as one functional module after another was thrown off.
Directly behind the Morrowind No.2, a massive Prism Ship followed closely.
The middle of the Prism Ship was opening, and Blade Mantises and other strange-shaped small units were swarming out.
The Cannon at the top-front of the Prism Ship was charging.
This Prism Ship had a different mission than those surrounding the Shadow Galaxy.
Its only focus was to destroy the “scrap” in front of it.
But it couldn’t fulfill its wish.
Before arriving at the Shadow Galaxy, Harrison Clark had thought that the biggest disturbance was in District 1, and the human forces should be the most concentrated there.
According to the command’s division of districts, District 7 was on the diagonal of District 1.
The Compound-Eyed Observer had mobilized many Prism Ships to enter District 1 in an attempt to rendezvous with Needham Brown.
At this point, the military strength of Compound-Eyed Observer and humans here should be the most lacking.
However, what Harrison Clark saw on the intelligence projection star map in his Warp Battle Armor was another scene.
In the star map, countless battleships were distributed over a small range, too many to discern with the naked eye.
The artificial intelligence calculated the number of ships in this enormous fleet to be at least hundreds of millions of various types and shapes.
Harrison Clark was puzzled.
As far as he could remember, he never knew that a rag-tag fleet of this large scale existed within the Shadow Galaxy.
Soon, he got the answer.
When he accessed further information, the origin of the fleet became obvious.
The Carrier Fleet.
At some unknown time, this massive Carrier Fleet had been assembling outside the galaxy without approaching it.
This fleet had never even activated its quantum network system for external transmission from beginning to end, only passively receiving information, just as he had done with Morrowind No.2.
Only after receiving a particular command did this rag-tag fleet accelerate at an incredibly fast speed, enter supercurved motion, and arrive almost simultaneously with Morrowind No.2 before forcibly exiting subspace.
