Chapter 481 Refusing to Evacuate
"Where's Tomoko?" the commander asked.
Sophon is the most powerful detector in the hands of the coalition government. With its concealment and mobility, it has made extraordinary achievements for the coalition government many times.
MOSS calmly replied: "There is a force field with a binding function inside the cube. Sophons cannot penetrate deep, otherwise they will be imprisoned in the shell of the cube."
Sophons are the creations of the Trisolaran civilization. The Trisolaran civilization is not a very powerful civilization, so sophons are not omnipotent.
MOSS paused for a moment, then added: "Sophon cannot detect the internal situation of this fleet. There is a special field near this fleet. Once Sophon enters this field, he will be moved out, which may involve time technology."
The commander was silent for a moment.
Time Technology - In the "Warhammer 40K" universe, there are many civilizations that have mastered time technology, the most famous of which is the human civilization of the Golden Age.
Judging from the appearance, this mysterious fleet that suddenly appeared in the Prospero galaxy does indeed conform to human aesthetics.
However, human civilization in the golden age has long been buried in the pile of old paper.
Throughout the entire "Warhammer 40,000" universe, there has never been a single large-scale human fleet from the Golden Age.
After undergoing human transformation, the commander's thinking speed was comparable to that of a computer. Countless thoughts were swirling in his mind, and he finally made a decision.
"Inform the Imperial Navy and ask them to withdraw from the Prospero system immediately."
The coalition government cannot go.
They were just a hair away from capturing Magnus, and this mission was important to the coalition's image and there was no room for failure.
The Imperial Navy has to go, because the coalition government is not sure it can protect the Imperial Navy from the attack of the mysterious fleet.
If the Imperial Navy is completely wiped out here, especially if something happens to the three Primarchs, the diplomatic relations between the United Government and the Human Empire will most likely deteriorate.
"Let our people speed up and try to get Magnus back to our battleship before the cube changes."
the commander urged.
He didn't know what purpose the mysterious fleet released a cube, but MOSS pointed out that the scene resembled the two-way foil projected by the singer civilization, and he couldn't believe it.
Complete the mission, then exit Prospero to avoid contact with the mysterious fleet.
If you have time.
"No matter what, try to block the cube and see if you can directly move the cube to another place." The commander gave the order.
Whether it can be done or not, you will never know until you do it.
Maybe it is an ordinary cube, or can it be thrown to another galaxy a few light years away by means of space transfer?
MOSS accepted the order calmly: "Okay, Commander."
The coalition government's fleet quickly moved.
There are not many human soldiers in this fleet, and most of the equipment is controlled by MOSS, but its use requires human authorization and physical support.
"Lock the target!"
"Start space movement!"
Tens of thousands of warships on one side of the cube united, and they activated their space moving equipment at the same time.
For a time, tens of thousands of cutting force fields enveloped the cube at the same time, trying to cut the space around the cube into independent entities, and then use the squeezing effect of the space itself to eject the space fragments containing the cube.
"Movement failed!"
"This cube has the mass of three hundred medium-sized stars!"
These battleships failed.
This cube has used certain means to shield its own gravity. Its body has a huge mass. These masses hold the space where it is in place, and it cannot be ejected just by the backlog of space itself.
MOSS did not hesitate because of this. In fact, it did not hesitate to express this sentiment.
It immediately took another approach.
Moving the cube itself is not feasible, but space debris can be superimposed on the cube's path, expanding the space on the cube's path, increasing the cube's actual walking distance, thereby slowing down the cube's speed.
Densely packed space debris was launched directly in front of the cube.
After these space debris are launched, they will not quickly integrate into the surrounding space, but the cube has a mass of 300 medium-sized stars. It is like a giant steamroller, forcing space debris wherever it moves into the surrounding space. inside.
The originally one-meter path became ten meters or even longer. From a macro perspective, the cube's movement suddenly slowed down.
MOSS realized that this method was effective, so it mobilized more warships to "pave the way" for the cube.
The cube's speed quickly dropped to one hundredth of its original speed.
The direction of the cube is towards the very center of Prospero's galaxy. It used to take less than three minutes to reach the cube, but now it takes five or six hours.
But the mysterious fleet quickly took action.
The invisible time force field enveloped the road in front of the cube, causing the space debris thrown by the coalition government fleet to return to the original path, and increasing the movement speed of the cube.
The speed of the cube suddenly increased and then decreased, and finally stabilized at about one-tenth of its original speed.
In about half an hour, the cube will reach the very center of Prospero's system, and by then, the Coalition may know what the cube is.
On the other hand, the Imperial Navy also received warnings from the coalition government.
"Evacuate?" Guilliman frowned.
The situation has changed unexpectedly. Rationally speaking, he is willing to evacuate, but his two brothers may not.
Especially Ryan.
As the Primarch of the First Legion, Lion was a man who placed great emphasis on honor.
If Llane doesn't leave, he and Mortarion won't be able to leave either.
Sure enough, Ryan's communication was sent: "Guilliman, you and Mortarion should leave first. I want to stay and witness with my own eyes the evil on Prospero being burned away in fire!"
Guilliman sighed softly: "I will stay with you, but after completing the order to exterminate Prospero, we must evacuate immediately."
He can't leave.
If he leaves, the Imperial Ministry of Administrative Affairs will definitely label him as a deserter and accuse him of damaging the reputation of the Empire and the Emperor.
Ryan said gratefully: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Ryan also knows that the current situation is very dangerous. Their enemy is an existence that even pure-blood humans with 300,000 battleships are afraid of. In such a grand interstellar war, their 1,000 battleships are like a thorn that may threaten them at any time. The grass turned into ashes.
Guilliman was willing to stay with him at great risk.
"I'm not leaving either." Mortarion also expressed his opinion, "Stop using orbital bombing, it's too slow. Use secondary torpedoes instead for a quick victory!"
