- After a month. In a certain boundless void, there was a sudden brilliance, and the space fluctuated slightly, and at a certain moment, a silver-white spaceship suddenly appeared in the void.

"The end of the spatial transition...... The spacecraft began to systematically detect ......"

Emma's crisp and melodious voice sounded in the hall, and with its words, the figure in the hall flickered, and a person was already standing on the ground, it was Jiang Ping who jumped out of the safety support warehouse after the space jump.

"All systems are working properly...... Again, it is warned that the space jump engine has signs of fatigue and should not continue to operate frequently, and it is necessary to carry out major repairs......"

Emma's crisp and melodious voice kept coming.

Jiang Ping listened, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Okay, Emma, you tell me, how long will this overhaul take?" ”

He didn't dare to neglect the other party's advice anymore, and the other party repeatedly warned that it would not be without reason.

Emma said: "This break, according to Emma's estimate, will take at least three months. ”

"Three months, so long? Does it take so long to repair? Jiang Ping asked, he was now like an arrow, and it was difficult to wait for a day, let alone three months, otherwise he would not have repeatedly performed space jump operations despite the fatigue of the spacecraft.

Emma said: "This time is a scientific prediction. In the past few years, after many frequent space jumps, the spacecraft as a whole has been very tired and needs to rest, otherwise if it continues like this, it is easy to have various malfunctions. Now it looks like it's okay for a while, but the probability of something wrong is increasing. ”

Jiang Ping listened. I had to say helplessly: "Okay, the ship's overhaul." I'll leave it to you. ”

Emma promised, "Okay." ”

There is Emma, a clever "chief engineer", and a variety of intelligent machines with precise operation. There is nothing Jiang Ping has to worry about about the maintenance of the spaceship.

"yes, where are we now?" Jiang Ping asked with concern again.

After surveying nearby stars, a vast star map appeared on the hall screen, and a red dot marking the ship's current location flashed on the screen.

Looking at the red dots flashing on the screen, Jiang Ping's expression moved, this time the space jump was very smooth, and now where their spaceship was located, it could be said that they had reached the outer edge of the unicorn star field.

It's finally here, and there is a faint hint of excitement in his heart.

"Emma. Zoom in on the star map, and I'm going to see a detailed star map of the star fields near where we are now! Jiang Ping commanded again.

Emma agreed, and the screen flashed, and a detailed star map representing the current situation around the star field appeared, and Jiang Ping watched carefully. The place where the Nebula is located now is still a very sparse starry sky, and a large area is void, only occasionally dotted with some sparse stars.

"Emma, sue me. Where is the closest terrestrial planet to us now, and how far away? Jiang Ping commanded.

On the screen, a flickering yellow dot suddenly appeared, indicating the closest terrestrial planet to the Nebula.

"This asteroid marked GP005. It's the closest terrestrial planet to us, about 700 light-years away! Emma's crisp voice replied.

Jiang Ping glanced at the flashing yellow dot on the screen a few times, and it was okay. It's not too far, and it can be reached with a single ultra-short-distance space jump.

This asteroid is marked GP005. It's just a very inconspicuous asteroid, in the middle of nowhere. It's like a grain of sediment, no matter how small, ordinary, or ordinary.

Jiang Ping pondered there for a while, then said: "Emma, rest for a day, and make another ultra-short space jump tomorrow, target, this GP005 asteroid!" ”

When Emma, the little cartoon girl on the screen, heard this, she immediately twisted her waist humanely, and said unhappily: "Commander Jiang, didn't Emma say that the spacecraft will undergo a major overhaul that lasts at least three months, and you also agreed, why are you in a hurry to make another space jump tomorrow!" ”

Jiang Ping smiled and said, "Emma, don't worry, after you get to that GP005 asteroid, I will let you overhaul it, and then let the spacecraft have a good rest, it may be more than three months!" ”

When Emma heard this, she didn't understand the other party's purpose for a while, so she asked, "Commander Jiang, what are your plans?" ”

Jiang Ping said: "Our Emma is smart. I plan to find a hidden place after I get to the GP005 asteroid, where the Nebula will overhaul and rest, and wait here for me to come back. ”

The Little Cloud is a small spaceship on the Nebula with a spare car.

When Emma heard this, she twisted her waist humanely, made a childlike attitude, and said crisply: "In this way, Emma is a little reluctant to leave Commander Jiang!" ”

Jiang Ping said: "Emma, you can stay here, if it is a qiē shun lì, I will come back soon, and then we can go back to Jialanxing." Remember, don't be naughty, wander around, it won't be good if I can't find you! ”

Emma didn't insist anymore, so she said, "Okay, Emma will wait here for Commander Jiang to come back!" ”

Jiang Ping said funny again: "Remember, wait here obediently, don't be naughty, run around!" ”

"I hate it, Emma won't be naughty and run around!" Emma spoiled.

Jiang Ping laughed out loud, of course he was just joking, but he wasn't really afraid that the other party would run away like this, although the other party was an artificial intelligence life, he was still very "loyal and obedient".

His decision to let the Nebula rest on the GP005 asteroid and take the Nebula to the Unicorn Eden Empire was also deliberate.

This goes to the Unicorn Eden Empire, the danger along the way is naturally needless to say, it is likely to encounter any unforeseen dangers, the protection ability of the Nebula is really not very good, and the simple new energy shield can still show off its might in front of the artillery fire of the Grimm people, but I believe that in front of the heavy artillery of the unicorn people, it is still vulnerable.

The Nebula is his reliance on going back to Jialan, if the Nebula is destroyed, it will be difficult to move an inch in this vast interstellar spacecraft, and there are sufficient energy materials on the spaceship, if it is damaged, it will be enough for him to feel distressed, so he decided to leave the Nebula in a relatively safe place here, and he took the Xiaoyun to the Eden Empire.

It's a wild and remote place, and there haven't been civilized ships passing by since ancient times, and the Nebula should be safe enough to hide on the GP005 asteroid.

Three days later, after an ultra-short space jump, and after two days of normal sailing, Nebula slowly landed on the GP005 asteroid at its intended destination.

Although this place is very remote and it is almost impossible for a spaceship to pass by, Jiang Ping still found a very hidden valley to land, hid the Nebula, and instructed Emma to keep the communication silent during the rest period here, as far as possible to minimize the possibility of being detected by the outside world, just in case.

As a spare spaceship in an emergency, the material reserves on the Xiaoyun are also sufficient, of course, the reserves on the Nebula are incomparable, the material reserves on the Nebula are enough to provide the spacecraft for a hundred years of navigation, and the material reserves on the Xiaoyun are enough for a few years at most.

But this is enough, it is really dangerous to go to the Eden Empire, Jiang Ping already has the plan that Xiaoyun will not come back, so he does not plan to prepare more supplies in Li, otherwise the ship will be destroyed, and it will just be wasted.

Jiang Ping didn't stay long on the GP005 asteroid, and the next day he took the Xiaoyun and left here to go to the Eden Empire in the target.

This is already the outer edge of the Unicorn Star Field, and it is not too far away from the Eden Empire itself.

It is said that it is the star field of the unicorns, but there are also civilized races such as the Shining and the Morgan, and these Shining people, the Morgan are still "indigenous", and the unicorns are just "outsiders".

It is inevitable that there will be disputes and frictions between "outsiders" and "natives", and the current territory of the unicorn people was obtained after the conquest and expulsion of some indigenous civilization races. This star field is larger than the one of the Grimm people, and there are many civilized races in it, the Shining people and the Morgan people are the two most powerful and the most advanced and developed civilizations in science and technology, and they are also the two main forces that compete with the one-horned Eden people in this star field.

The struggle between the two sides has been a long time, there were originally distant galaxies separated by each other, the contact was inconvenient, and the situation of well water not being violated by river water could be maintained, but with the progress of scientific and technological civilization, the improvement of interstellar navigation technology, and the continuous expansion of territorial forces between the two sides, there was inevitably a conflict of interests, and the peaceful situation was no longer maintained, and thousands of years of disputes began to be staged.

This millennium of disputes, until now, basically maintained a balance of power, during which there have been intermittent wars, there have been intermittent peace, and the spheres of influence between each other are also intertwined, and there are many vassal civilized races, either to take refuge in the one-horned Eden, or to the Shining people, Morgan, under the wings of these big clans, in order to survive tremblingly.

A few days later, after several space jumps, Xiaoyun appeared in the void of a certain galaxy, which seemed to have a certain scale, dense stars, with hundreds of millions of stars, according to Jiang Ping's estimate, there should be civilized activities, although on the whole, this place is still on the edge of this vast star field.

Xiaoyun is like a big fish, sailing in the void, its target is a terrestrial planet in front of the galaxy that is suspected to be a living planet, judging from various explorations, the astral condition of that terrestrial planet is very consistent with the characteristics of a living planet, Jiang Ping plans to go there to have a look, to find out the news.
