Under the cover of the "Ghost Curtain", Ghost continues to approach the ring of Andromeda α1024 star.

Near the first planetary orbit of Andromeda α1024, Captain Ghost once again slowed down and reported back: "General, if you continue to move forward, even if there is a ghost curtain, you may be discovered by the gravitational radar.

"We do not have information on the gravitational radar layout area near the Andromeda α1024 star ring, so it is difficult to avoid the reconnaissance of the gravitational radar."

Fang Yuan stared silently at the huge star in the distance and the star rings outside the star.

This star ring project was once a building imagined by humans, but so far, no attempt has been made to be built.

It is said to be a star ring, but the width of this ring is very wide.

Including the star energy absorption plate, the width of the star ring reaches an astonishing thousand kilometers.

In the orbit of the first planet, you can only look at the star rings from afar, but it is actually not clear.

"Try your best to try to get close to the star ring. If you think you have reached the limit, then evacuate decisively. However, for this reconnaissance mission, the closer you get to the star ring, the better." Fang Yuan finally decided to hand over control of the Ghost to its captain.

Captain Ghost naturally understood the importance of this reconnaissance mission, stood attentively and responded loudly: "Yes!"

Then, he and the crew worked together to drive the Ghost, shut down the curvature engine and the power engine, and used the gravitational slingshot effect of the first planet to sweep past the outer layer of the first planet.

When passing through the first planet of Andromeda α1024, you can see the planet at close range.

When you first see this planet, you will feel a moment of surprise.

Because this planet is like a broken planet after being subjected to sharp artillery fire.

There are pits everywhere, the surface is uneven, and half of the planet's mantle disappears, collapses under the gravity of the planet, and is broken and ragged, shocking.

However, after careful examination, you will find that this planet was not broken by shelling.

"Huh... this planet is almost hollowed out." Ye Zheyu's observation was clearest. Under his observation of the reconnaissance eye, he could clearly see the entire planet.

"It should be used to build a star ring and directly demolish the planet." Fang Yuan also saw it.

This planet was not hit like this by war, but was hollowed out.

Star rings.

A ring on a star.

However, in a stellar system, the mass of a star accounts for more than 99% of the total mass of the star system.

In other words, most of the mass in a star system is inside the star.

Therefore, it is not possible to build a Dyson ball, wrap the stars, and dismantle all the planets in the star system.

Even if the reduction is required and only the construction of star rings is needed, the material required is also very large.

In order to build the Andromeda α1024 ring, the Palesse civilization must need enough materials.

Even higher civilizations can already break the boundaries of material types, as long as there is enough mass, it will take several planets to be removed.

"When we passed by the second planet, the distance was relatively far, so we didn't look carefully. I guess the second planet was almost hollowed out." Ye Zheyu guessed.

Since the Ghost has sneaked into the most dangerous area of ​​Andromeda α1024's defense zone, Ye Zheyu did not dare to use the reconnaissance eye to reconnaissance places too far away.

Therefore, when the Ghost crossed the orbit of the second planet, it did not observe the second planet.

Now, passing by the first planet, I finally saw the planet.

The Ghost turned off all its power engines, relied on inertia and star gravity, drifted forward and slowly approached the star rings.

The closer the distance is, the less clear the naked eye can actually see it.

Because the light of the stars is too strong, you can only see the dazzling white light when you look directly at the naked eye.

Only after reducing the brightness of the light by the light consideration device can the star ring be clearly seen.

Not every place is the same thickness and width on the ring of the star.

There are stellar weapon turrets built for war on the star ring.

These stellar weapons turrets are like islands floating outside the stars

The star rings are like bead chains, connecting the stellar weapon turrets.

These stellar weapons are very huge. Just looking at the size of the giant cannon, you will know that they are stronger and more terrifying than gamma star destroyers.

If it is a head-on competition for firepower, the firepower of the expedition fleet will not be able to fight against the firepower of the Andromeda α1024 star ring, which is dozens of times the gap.

Ye Zheyu looked at the stellar weapon configuration on the star ring, took a deep breath, and said, "Captain, the initial estimate was too low. This is not only the firepower of 300,000 warships, but the firepower intensity of 300,000 battleships."

This data was just said casually and had not been carefully verified, but the estimated gap would not be too big.

Fang Yuan nodded and said, "This reconnaissance is still valuable. You must adjust your tactics and face the shelling head-on, and there is no chance of winning."

As the Ghost got closer and closer to the star ring, Fang Yuan suddenly felt a faint fluctuation in his body, as if he had entered a special area of ​​some environment.

However, after careful scrutiny, no abnormalities were found.

There is no special energy fluctuation in the surrounding space, nor does there be any powerful pressure.

Fang Yuan frowned, not sure if the feeling just now was an illusion, but he was always a little uneasy.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan prepared to order the Ghost to turn around and evacuate.

Just then.

The dense alarm sound of "beep..." suddenly sounded on the rings of Andromeda α1024.

All the turrets on the star rings started to move.

The captain of the Ghost felt a stern and said in a hurry: "General, we have been discovered!"

"withdraw!"

Fang Yuan ordered decisively.

Captain Ghost frowned and thought, and ordered: "The power engine is ready to ignite..."

At this time.

Ye Zheyu reminded: "Wait a minute, the turret on the star ring did not lock our position, and the other party did not find our position, but if the power engine is activated, it will definitely be locked."

Captain Ghost said in a deep voice: "There is no other way. If the power engine is not activated, Ghost will be pulled by the gravity of the star and fall into the surface of the star."

"Fight for it. After adjusting the direction, start the curvature engine directly and rush out. Even the light can't catch up with us." Eve suggested clenching her fist.

If the starting power engine is locked, then starting the curvature engine will not be worse.

"Don't worry!"

Fang Yuan's eyes were calm and he looked at the turret on the star ring.

On the stellar ring turret, the fire control radar is rotating rapidly, obviously this is conducting a directive target scanning.

This situation is the same as what Ye Zheyu said, the fire-controlled radar on the star ring does not lock on the target.

There is usually only one reason for this.

That is, the enemy has already noticed that the target is approaching, but cannot see where the target is, so he activated the fire control radar of all the turrets on the entire star ring and was looking for the target.

Obviously, the powerful concealment ability of the "Ghost Curtain" blocks the exploration of the fire-controlled radar.

However, this does not mean that the location of the Ghost will not be exposed.

If a high-power fire control radar concentrates the signal and is exactly the position of the ghost in the signal, it will be locked instantly.

If it is just a high-power fire control radar scanning at a fixed point, the probability of being discovered is not high, but the fire control radar on the entire star ring is moving, and the Ghost will be discovered sooner or later.

Fang Yuan raised his foot and stepped on the floor of the Ghost Bridge, and a circle of star power spread out.

Through his own strength, he forcibly reversed the direction of the Ghost and ordered: "The power engine and microcurvature engine are started at the same time, let's go."

Captain Ghost quickly determined the parameters, counted down to three seconds, and started the power engine and microcurvature engine.

Buzz!

The ghost and the void ejected a tail flame and rushed towards the outer circle of the star system.

The power engine ejected the tail flame and its speed began to soar.

"The microcurvature engine starts up."

"Go!" Fang Yuan ordered.

The Ghost enters the curvature voyage.

Under normal circumstances, after starting the curvature engine, the ship will immediately obtain a curvature speed of superluminal speed and disappear from the spot at a speed that is difficult to see in the naked eye.

However, when the Ghost entered the microcurvature navigation, the speed increase amplitude was abnormal.

Ye Zheyu immediately discovered the problem: "Check the curvature engine, and there was an abnormality in curvature speed!"

The tone was filled with anxiety.

At this critical moment, if there is a problem with the curvature engine, the consequences will be unimaginable.

As a special warship, the Ghost uses the most advanced technology and equipment, and it regularly detects the operation of the equipment.

In theory, the possibility of failure is very low.

However, there is a problem now.
