Su Lai, captain of the scientific expedition of the Principality of spn, looked at the small patrol ship getting closer and closer on the huge virtual screen, and couldn't help but hit the command platform with his fist.

"Damn, a small ship can actually explode with such a strong assault speed."

During the chase, I originally thought that I would be able to catch up with the patrol ship in front of me right away. As a result, the other party suddenly burst out with a speed that was no less than that of a medium to large warship. It increased its speed explosively, directly shortening the distance between the two sides to millions of kilometers.

.

However, the speed of the small boat quickly dropped back, and under the full pursuit of the scientific research ship, it was soon to be overtaken.

"Captain, we will catch up with the target soon."[

the radar officer reported.

Su Lai: "Very good. Our large-caliber laser cannon has been charged for a long time. If they don't surrender, I will beat them hard."

He couldn't help but wonder, what would be the mood of the enemy in front of him? Perhaps he was terrified, or perhaps he was leaving his last words to his family.

Although my own scientific research ship is not very powerful, it can still deal with this kind of small ship.

"Continue to contact the principality to see if our reinforcements have set off. After capturing or destroying this small ship, we will retreat and return to the Lost Star Territory."

Su Lai was not stupid. Although there was only a shabby small boat in front of him, it was probably just the opponent's patrol ship. If so, then the enemy must have large ships.

The enemy does not need a battleship or even a cruiser, as long as a destroyer or large patrol ship is enough to capture your own scientific research ship, or destroy it with one shot.

It is enough to be able to complete the capture target by yourself and obtain as much first-hand information on the indigenous people as possible. There is no need to take risks and go deeper.

According to his prediction, this civilization is likely to be a late stage first-level civilization.

"It is absolutely impossible to be a second-level civilization. If it is a second-level civilization, they must have walked out of the Lost Star Territory long ago. It is impossible that until now, the entire Pan-Human Universe Alliance cannot find any trace of their existence."

The reinforcements Su Lai had been waiting for soon came to fruition.

"Captain, communication from the Principality's Ministry of Defense."

Sule hurriedly opened the communication, and the virtual video turned out to be Kasse, the deputy minister of defense of the principality.

"Hello, Minister Kasai."

"Captain Sule, first of all I must congratulate you and your scientific expedition team for making a great discovery. Your names will surely be recorded in the history of the Principality and become one of the greatest scientific expedition teams in the history of the Principality."

After Kasei spoke a few official words, he finally said, "After the urgent application of Director Meng of the Exploration Bureau and the approval of Prime Minister McBee, the Ministry of National Defense has dispatched a reinforcement fleet. A total of 5 battleships, 10 cruisers, and 5 comprehensive transport ships.

Supply ship.

These reinforcements will arrive at your location along the route you marked. At that time, you can make a triumphant return to the principality to receive all the rewards you deserve."

"Thank you so much, Lord Casse. When I return to the principality, I will personally thank you. I believe that the reinforcements you personally deployed will successfully conquer this low-level civilization."

Su Lai said excitedly. He briefly introduced some information about this civilization. However, the distance was too far and the scientific research ship had not yet detected the other party's living planet. It had only detected some signs of civilization activities, including some small spacecraft and some space stations.

, and a cruiser.[

"Well. Your information is very important, and we will take it seriously. Judging from the information you sent back, these space stations and small spacecraft are all low-level models. They were built by a backward first-level civilization. Our enemies may

They have some warships, but if they are closed, they must be backward and barbaric.

However, this cruiser is somewhat interesting. Although I have never seen it, it seems that its firepower is not too weak."

Casse saw the cruiser and was a little confused. It was not a standard model, but from the appearance, it looked very powerful. Maybe it was their main battleship, he comforted himself.

No matter what, the principality dispatched 15 large warships and 5 supply ships at one time, which was enough to undertake the task of opening the road.

Even if things change, this advance fleet will be enough to cope with it, delaying time and waiting for subsequent reinforcements from the main force.

"Damn Longshan Empire, those damn first-level civilization bugs have actually dragged down 80% of the principality's military strength. Otherwise, we could have dispatched dozens of battleships to conquer this new bug in one fell swoop."

Casse complained in his heart, but he was looking forward to it. Once the principality takes over the Lost Star Territory, not only will its territory expand several times in an instant, but it will also have massive resources and a strategic detour space that is so huge that it is unimaginable.

By then, the Principality of Ranke, as a newly promoted second-level civilization, will surely rise rapidly.

Perhaps, by then, the Principality of Lanke can compete with established second-level civilizations such as the Longshan Empire and the Nok Merchant Alliance.

However, in any case, as a noble of the principality, the rapid expansion of the principality's strength will also expand his power and status, and even his fiefdom, several times.

"There are still 10 universes left before we can catch up with the other party. Initiate a communication to the other party and ask them to surrender."

Along the way, Su Lai was also cautious and only sent a few messages asking the other party to surrender. This time, he planned to 'speak' to the other party in person.

However, at this time, on the Hummingbird 3 patrol ship, Zhen Zishan had just hung up the communication. The Space Command asked him to initiate a communication to the other party to protest their invasion.

In order to catch the opponent off guard, and because the empire was not prepared, the protest that was supposed to be launched immediately was delayed by more than an hour.

Su Lai straightened his clothes when he heard the communications officer's report.

"Captain, there is communication access."

"Huh? Come in."

The communication came in, and across the street was a man about the same height as himself, wearing a black uniform that looked like a military uniform, staring at him solemnly.

"We are the Chinese Empire Border Patrol. On behalf of the Empire, I issue a formal warning to you. If you do not surrender immediately, we will destroy you."

Zhen Zishan warned seriously.

"What? Destroy us?"

Su Lai laughed, as if he heard a very funny joke. If the other party could destroy his scientific research ship, he would not have escaped all the way.[

"We are the scientific expedition team of the Principality of Lanc. I order you to surrender immediately, otherwise, we will destroy you."

Su Lai said angrily that Bedbug dared to resist.

Zhen Zishan was not surprised. The scientific research ship's speed, defense, and firepower were all better than his own small patrol ship. The other party's behavior was not considered arrogant.

He did not refute, but directly hung up the communication. The China Ship would arrive soon. He did not need to show off his rhetoric for a while, as long as he made a routine protest and laid the foundation for the following actions.

The jump of the China Ship was strictly timed. Sure enough, five minutes later, Hummingbird 3 received the ultra-long-distance communication from the China Ship, asking Hummingbird 3 to report the latest situation.

Hummingbird 3 headed towards the predetermined star field. More than a minute later, it saw a huge flash of light slowly brightening in front of it. Then it became brighter and brighter.

The scientific research ship behind, which was already close at hand, was catching up in a majestic manner, and naturally discovered this strange light.

"Huh? Why did a bright light suddenly appear?"

Su Lai felt very strange. There was neither a jump gate nor any other abnormal situation in front of him, but a bright light suddenly appeared.

In all these years, Su Lai has never encountered such a strange situation.

If it is a wormhole, it cannot suddenly appear. If it is an artificially constructed object, who would inexplicably build something in the starry sky that would only glow suddenly?

However, the next moment, he knew what it was.

"My God, this, this, what is this..."

The bright light slowly dissipated, and then objects emitting metallic luster slowly began to appear. Gradually, a giant battleship appeared there.

With a huge hull nearly 3,000 meters long, and two super main guns that are more than twice as thick as ordinary main guns. There are also densely packed gun emplacements. The entire battleship is already half the size of the ordinary battleships in Sule's impression, and has more firepower.

It's several times stronger.

"This, this, is this a super battleship..."

Su Lai has seen on the virtual Internet that some countries in the late third-level civilization are equipped with such super battleships. Could it be that there is a third-level civilization hidden here?

"Quickly, send the information back to the principality."

Su Lai roared immediately, all signs showed that he had failed this time.

Even if the principality didn't suffer any major losses, he definitely wouldn't be able to escape.

"Captain, our communications have been blocked."

"It's over..."

Su Lai thought in despair that as soon as the opponent's super battleship appeared, it turned on the battlefield shielding equipment, and the time-divided voyage of several universes was completely under the opponent's shield.

"Captain, there is communication access!!"

"Come in."

"Because you have entered the empire's territory rashly and have violated..."

In the video, the soldier just now was announcing his crime to Su Lai and others. After reading aloud, Su Lai finally understood through the translator that if he and others did not surrender and accept trial, they would be destroyed directly.

"surrender"

Su Lai hesitated. If he surrendered rashly and the principality investigated him afterwards, his family would be in trouble. What's more, he was a legendary hero. If he surrendered this time and became a huge black spot, what would he do in the future?

Moreover, although the opponent has such a super battleship, maybe there is only one?

If it is not as strong as the principality, it will eventually be defeated.

If he persists for a while and then surrenders, he will still be a great hero after being rescued by the principality.

"Captain, their main gun is, is, charging!!!"

So, while Su Lai and other scientific expedition members were dumbfounded, the super battleship on the opposite side was already charging, and the speed was extremely fast, almost at a speed visible to the naked eye. The main gun on the opposite side was fully charged.

"Oh my god, how could it be so fast!!!"

Su Lai didn't have time to say anything, so he just rushed towards the communication station and demanded to shout surrender to the other party.

"On behalf of the 112th scientific expedition team of the Principality of Lanc, I officially announce my vote to you..."
Chapter completed!
