While He Ming and others were working hard on how to get the No. 3 prototype into condition as soon as possible, Kujo Lisa also received information about the bubble structure area that starts from Eldora and ends at Cygnus.
Reports on routes.
These reports were the intelligence detected by Yamato and other mental cores who stayed behind when they were building the second satellite fortress of the Yar galaxy and stationed in the Cygnus bubble structure area and transporting it to the target area.
"Lisa. Is the situation very pessimistic?"
Lin Mingmei looked at Kujo Lisa's frowning face and asked.
"Well, not too optimistic."
Lisa Kujo nodded and then put the report on the screen.
She pointed to the route described in the report.
"This is exactly the route our Eldora took to the bubble structure area. When we returned to the Macross world, Yamato and the others also sent out several high-speed mobile squadrons to survey the surrounding situation. As a result, we found that
There are traces of no fewer than four interstellar civilizations operating in the surrounding area."
"No less than four?! So dense?!"
As a galactic singer, Lin Mingmei is naturally no stranger to the concept of interstellar civilization, and she also knows very well that without the intervention of external forces, even if many civilizations have entered interstellar civilization, it will be difficult to compete with other interstellar civilizations in a short period of time.
Opportunities for contact.
However, under the starry sky where the Navigation Star is located, there are no less than four interstellar civilizations.
"Could it be space pirates, or a wandering race? For example, a civilization similar to Naga."
Lin Mingmei was still deeply impressed by Naga.
"It is possible. But space pirates are absolutely impossible. Although we have not encountered space pirates active in this universe, I believe that the so-called space pirates will not make Yamato and the others cautious."
Kujo Lisa is very familiar with the combat power of the left behind's mental core.
They are just space pirates, and the mental core left behind is enough to deal with them.
The only thing that is difficult to deal with is probably the interstellar civilization that appears within thirteen light-years of the Navigation Star.
Within this range, Kujo Lisa is divided according to their distance and orientation from the Navigation Star.
Among them, there is an ecological planet closest to the Navigation Star, about 3 light-years away. The race on it seems to be a racial civilization dominated by silicon-based life.
The high-speed mobile squadron sent to investigate the situation had listened to the communication signals of these silicon-based life forms, and witnessed with their own eyes that these silicon-based civilizations were carrying out a huge project of interstellar immigration towards the second planet in the home galaxy.
For this civilization, Lisa Kujo classified it as the No. 1 civilization, distance: close, threat: low.
But in a galaxy 2 light-years away from the mother star of this silicon-based life, there is no record of any civilization, no civilized buildings or artifacts of any kind, but a group of people that can grow from land are born.
Lisa Kujo became very interested in the planet of giant monsters that flew into space.
The high-speed mobile squadron that discovered this planet was hidden aside. After continuous observation for more than half a year, it was not discovered that any of the giant monsters born on this planet could fly at super-light speeds or have the ability to jump through space.
The fastest speeds these giant monsters can reach are more often between the first and second cosmic speeds.
Moreover, these giant monsters seem to become manic after entering space, and will fight each other until one of them dies and is devoured by the winner.
"How could a planet give birth to such a monster?!"
Lin Mingmei couldn't help but widen her eyes as she looked at the scene recorded by the high-speed mobile squadron.
It was a scene of a monster similar to a ray in the earth's ocean and another monster with four pairs of flesh wings and horns on its head that looked like a bat fighting in a planetary synchronous orbit.
The scene was so intense and the picture so bloody that the curious little mermaid sitting on Lin Mingmei's shoulder couldn't help but cover her eyes.
Seeing this, Lisa Kujo raised her hand to close the video.
"This universe is indeed very strange. At such a close distance, there are actually planets where these monsters are born."
"Then what should we do? Attack?"
Lin Mingmei reached out and gently stroked Xiaoya's little head with her fingers. While soothing the little guy's emotions, she was also thinking about how to deal with this monster planet.
"Let's put it aside for now! Although these monsters look quite good, I'm afraid they won't be able to break through the boundaries of their home planet and enter the real universe in a short time."
Planet No. 2, tentatively named: Monster Planet, distance: far, threat: mid-low.
A preliminary countermeasure plan is drawn up: deploy a reconnaissance satellite network to monitor changes in the planet's surroundings and provide timely warnings when monsters break through the boundaries of their home planet and enter the universe.
Kujo Lisa made countermeasures against these planets for the first time.
"There are still two targets. After we have dealt with them, we should also go and see what the situation is like over there?"
At this time, there was a knock on the door, causing the little mermaid who was sitting on Lin Mingmei's shoulders and covering her eyes to let out a cheer. In the blink of an eye, she flew to the door switch, opened the door, and pounced on it.
In people's arms.
"Ah! Xiaoya, wait! Don't worry! It's all yours."
Suddenly being swooped by Xiaoya, Artesia, who was holding the ice cream in her hand, almost let go and let the ice cream fall to the ground.
After spending a lot of effort and using ice cream to calm down Xiaoya, who was a little confused, Artesia walked into the room and looked at Lisa Kujo and Lin Mingmei.
"What happened just now? Why is there something wrong with this little guy Xiaoya?"
In her free time, Artesia also likes to play with Xiaoya. This is the first time that Artesia has seen such a weird appearance of Xiaoya.
Lisa Kujo shrugged her shoulders, and Lin Mingmei put her hands on both sides of her head, like horns, and let out a strange scream, shouting:
"Xiaoya, the monster mother is here!"
Xiaoya, who was holding the ice cream, saw this, shook her head, snorted coldly, showed a look of disdain, then flicked her tail, sent the ice cream in front of Lin Mingmei, and barked a few times.
Seeing this, Lin Mingmei felt embarrassed to scare Xiaoya, and couldn't help but feel soft. She held Xiaoya in her hands, let her sit in her arms, and slowly ate the ice cream.
"So you were looking at the information that Yamato and the others found?"
Artesia also learned information about the surroundings of the Navigation Star from Yamato.
"Yeah. It's being processed!"
When Lisa Kujo moved the information about the monster planet to the other side, Artesia suddenly spoke.
"I learned something about the situation on this planet from Yamato. This planet seems to be falling into civil strife."
"Civil strife? The previous intelligence did not seem to mention this civil strife."
When Lisa Kujo heard this, she immediately called up the previous files. As a result, she found that these files had just been updated ten minutes ago.
At that time, Kujo Lisa was processing information about Planet No. 1 and the Monster Planet, and did not notice this change.
"Okay! It seems that the plan is not as good as the change!"
Lisa Kujo shook her head, showing a hint of helplessness.
This planet is Planet No. 3, which is 3 light years away from the Navigation Star and located in the opposite direction to Planet No. 1. Judging from the intelligence detected by the previously dispatched squadron, the civilization born on this planet is about to take a step forward.
Entering the stage of leaving the mother galaxy and heading to a deeper level of the universe.
At the same time, it is also the interstellar civilization that poses the greatest threat to the Star.
Because, with just an opportunity, this interstellar civilization might be able to develop space jump technology and become a cross-galaxy interstellar civilization in one fell swoop.
At that time, the short distance of 3 light years will not allow Qihang Star to avoid contact with this interstellar civilization.
However, Lisa Kujo did not expect that the interstellar civilization with such a bright future would fall into a civil strife on the eve of heading towards the glorious road.
Thinking of this, Lisa Kujo immediately contacted the high-speed mobile squadron that was monitoring this galaxy.
As the screen flickered, what appeared on the screen was the flagship of this high-speed mobile squadron - St. Louis.
"Flagship of the Fourth High Speed ​​Mobile Reconnaissance Squadron, St. Louis, salutes to Staff Officer Kujo!"
A decent military uniform clearly outlines St. Louis's proud figure, and her smooth and beautiful blue hair is tied into a high ponytail, which adds a bit of heroism to her.
"Report the current intelligence! In addition, have you deciphered the other party's texts and encrypted communications?"
"Yes! Not long ago, we successfully recovered the communication equipment used by the other party from the battlefield, as well as some written records. And, based on this, we deciphered a message."
After a pause, St. Louis revealed the inside story of how this interstellar civilization fell into civil strife.
Ax Empire.
This is an empire that has gone through a long conquest of about a thousand years before it was able to unify the world.
Under the leadership of the then-emperor, the Ax Empire quickly completed the first step towards leaving its home planet and colonizing deep space, and then, within a few decades, sent hundreds of thousands of Imperial citizens to
Several colonial cities were established on the satellites accompanying the parent star, further establishing the basis for expansion to other planets in the parent star system.
In just a hundred years, this unified empire planted its flag throughout the entire home system at an unimaginable speed.
Then, the expansion of the empire stopped, and the seeds of civil strife were sown.
Looking at the information that St. Louis and the others had deciphered, Lisa Kujo raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"It seems that in the short term, we don't need to worry about the Ax Empire. This civil strife that has burned the entire galaxy will not subside in just a few decades. Unless..."
"unless?"
Lin Mingmei blinked and exchanged glances with Artesia.
In the hearts of the two women, they already know the answer that Kujo Lisa has not said.
That is the intervention of external forces.
"Let's put it down for now. We don't have that much energy to interfere in other people's affairs."
Lisa Kujo waved her hand and directly rejected the idea.
Even though the current sea fog fleet formed by the mental core is powerful enough and making progress every moment, their number is simply insignificant on the scale of the universe, or even on the scale of the galaxy.
If He Ming now has a huge fleet comparable to the base fleet, Kujo Lisa will definitely make the decision without saying a word, and formulate corresponding plans. Taking advantage of the internal strife in the Ax Empire, she will use her overwhelming attitude to defeat this possible threat.
The hidden dangers of arriving at the Navigation Star have been flatly pushed.
"It seems that we need to slightly adjust our military strength. However, if there is a mission next, I am afraid that we will not be able to use the support of the mental core."
Kujo Lisa suddenly felt a headache.
Although He Ming currently owns two ecological planets, the available power has not expanded due to this.
Eldora's side can only barely meet the requirements for self-defense, and is unable to provide support for the Navigation Star at all.
"Lisa, as for the fourth interstellar civilization, we shouldn't need to worry."
Artesia spoke again.
"How to say?"
In order to ensure that the previous missed information update would not happen again, Lisa Kujo immediately opened the information related to the fourth interstellar civilization.
Sure enough, she saw the intelligence update report.
"As we guessed, this interstellar civilization is a wandering civilization. Moreover, it is very likely that it discovered us, no, or the existence of a reconnaissance fleet to avoid the galaxy where the launch star is located."
"Want to chase?"
Artesia asked.
"No. It's not necessary. Since the other party has chosen to avoid it, there is no need for us to waste our troops in this area. Just maintain maximum vigilance."
After assigning the latest task, Kujo Lisa finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, the tactical forecaster who was still worried about revolutionizing the world would now use the entire starry sky as a chessboard, lay out a chess game based on two stars and a channel, and start a game with an unknown enemy.
This change surprised Lisa Kujo and also made her feel a lot of pressure.
"Yaya."
When the cold breath hit her nostrils, Kujo Lisa saw Xiaoya flying in front of her holding the ice cream, as if she wanted to share the cold, sweet ice cream with Kujo Lisa.
Seeing this, Lisa Kujo couldn't help but smile softly, reached out to take the ice cream, and took a bite.
Xiaoya nodded proudly and let out a proud cry, as if she felt that her generous sharing would make all Lisa Kujo's troubles fly away.
Seeing the little guy's proud look, the three girls laughed together, and for a moment, the slightly heavy air became lighter.
"boom!!"
At this time, there was a roar from the sky.
"It's a sound that breaks the sound barrier."
Artesia's ears twitched and she immediately realized the origin of the roar.
The three women looked out the window subconsciously, and happened to see a fleeting shadow flying past the horizon and disappearing into the clouds as several sonic boom clouds spread.
"It seems that the test flight of the No. 3 prototype is a success. This can be considered good news!"
