223 The rain is coming

Someone laughed out loud during the meal.

"It's here again. Even if it really exists, it's not our turn. The Big Ten must have found it and taken it for themselves. That's why their technology is so much ahead of us." One person said.

The other person immediately added: "Even if they don't find it, on the other hand, how can we get our turn if there are things that the top ten giants with such advanced technology have not yet found."

"It may not exist at all. Super civilization is a visitor to the Milky Way's extragalactic system. The giants must have reconnaissed every wreckage in the Milky Way."

The supercivilized home star will exist next to a burned star, and this view has been almost agreed by everyone. If it were next to a star that was still glowing and hot, it would have been found long ago.

However, there are also people who believe that the Big Ten have searched for even the wreckage of stars, even the human supremacists who claim to look down on aliens have such a guy.

"Don't be too mythical about the Big Ten." General Zhang said, "They have lost their ambition. Even if they have the technology to search for all the wreckage of stars, they may not necessarily do it. I think at least within our association, we should sit until we completely eradicate our blind fear of the Big Ten."

"You are, you should find a way to eradicate your blind contempt for the Big Ten."

"Okay!" Seeing that the dispute was about to begin, General Kok shouted loudly, and even General Zhang, who was older than him, changed his expression. "This kind of dispute has no meaning. General Dai, you can leave it to the classroom with young people. Now I suggest that we raise our hands to vote, what kind of way to deal with the current situation."

At this time, the oldest general spoke: "It's not bad to discuss more. If you don't discuss it, how can you unify your opinions? Just now, Lao Zhang mentioned this possibility so seriously. You shouldn't have a clue, right? Could it be that little boy from Lin Zhengyi found something?"

"We have obtained the information left by Lin Zhengyi and completed the interpretation. Although there are still a few pieces of the puzzle, we can already guess the approximate location. We estimate that there are five to ten targets to search in the inferred area, and the search team is being formed." Instructor Li, the only person in charge of front-line work, answered immediately.

This answer caused a whisper, of course, was a whisper of radio waves.

Then a general with slightly white hair asked, "The search team is not led by Lin Zhengyi's mixed-race son, right? Isn't it good to lift a mixed-race boy like this? I heard that when he was in danger, the Juka people sent a first-class dreadnought to find him. Those charlatans would not be so enthusiastic about an ordinary human."

The speaker did not hide the hostility in his words at all. Obviously, the alien bloodline in Lin Youde's blood vessels made him very concerned.

After he finished speaking, the blue-eyed female general next to him immediately said, "If Lin Zhengyi's son leads the search team, doesn't that mean that the Elalayan is also there? Doesn't it mean that a Princess of Eralah joins such a search team mean that the secret of the super-civilized mother star is handed over to the Big Ten of the Galaxy Parliament?"

"Don't worry." General Zhang shook his head gently, "The search team will be composed of experienced and determined adult soldiers. I no longer want young people to carry such heavy things. That's what I said, but the key information was retrieved by Lin Zhengyi's children. The two fathers and sons have done too many things for us to form an association. We can't rely on them anymore. That child should now embrace his youth."

Before he finished speaking, someone immediately asked: "Embraise youth, the civil war is about to begin. At this time, do you actually say such words to make people laugh?"

"I think this is the reason why we old men sit here and hold a meeting worriedly. We may not die in the future civil war, but those young people will definitely die in large numbers. They should have daydreams, bragging and falling in love on campus. They should not be sent to the battlefield, nor should they be sent to the battlefield of killing each other. Many years ago, we unanimously passed the resolution to permanently block the research on immortality technology. We believe that short-term lives can burn brilliantly, but can killing each other be considered brilliant? Can young lives disappear on the battlefield of civil war? "General Cock said loudly with a bold voice.

The entire venue fell into a brief silence, and then I don’t know who to start. The whisper of “the brilliance of life” filled the entire conference room. It was the default code word for the entire association and the embodiment of the spirit of association at least the old people present thought so.

"Then, let's start raising your hands to vote now. I agree with the people who will seal the Bele family laboratory now and give everything to Lin Zhengxiong. Please raise your hand..."

"Wait a minute, why not first see if the things left by Lin Zhengyi can really find the super-civilized mother star?"

"Because I'm not as naive as General Zhang," General Kork glanced at the principal of the Special Academy. "I think even if I really found the parent star, I can't suppress both sides. In fact, finding the parent star is just the first pair of super-civilized research to achieve results. Otherwise, the next moment, the combined fleet of the Big Ten of the Galaxy Congress will flock to you. I don't think we will achieve any results before the civil war begins."

"Maybe we will find the super warship left by super civilization, and it will scare both sides if it appears." General Zhang's tone was very unstable, so everyone turned to General Kok in an instant.

"So. Those who agree to support Lin Zhengxiong's dictatorship please raise your hand."

No one raised his hand.

"If you agree to sit and watch the civil war break out and accumulate strength in secret, please raise your hand." General Kork did not raise his hand, and obviously chose to abstain.

Others made the same choice.

The oldest general said: "Is there really no way to stop the civil war?"

"We control fewer fleets than both sides. Lin Zhengxiong used human supremacy to bring many ships that were originally under our control to his own name."

"So I just said a round of beautiful words to avoid the meaningless waste of young people's lives in the civil war. In the end, can't do anything? I don't remember that I was in such a useless association!" The veteran general slapped the table hard, "This cast a shadow on my military career before my retirement!"

"If you didn't choose to be a professor at the Advanced Department of the NCO Academy, you might have enough influence to control all the ships of the Space Army." Cock's words were ridiculous, "After all, you have outstanding military achievements and all military achievements that can be made public. And I was a ghost agent and I was promoted to my current position. Most of my military achievements cannot be made public."

"What about the option of starting a mutiny first?" someone asked.

"There is no chance of winning. Lin Zhengxiong is very concerned about the movements of ships that are not under his control. He has no way to concentrate his strength and dress up as this matter quietly."

"Where is the sudden notification of all ships to warp towards the Arctic Star?"

"How to solve the problem of arrival order? And when Lin Zhengxiong smelled danger after the warp speed began, he escaped before the warp speed was completed. Warp speed did not happen immediately. If we had a way to make ships distributed in the vast human-controlled area suddenly appear in the Bighorn, then there would be a great chance of success in mutiny, so what we need is not warp speed, but folding space navigation or jump navigation. Who of you can 'take' this technology out of science fiction? We can launch mutiny."

Everyone was silent.

General Zhang said, "We already have a plan to protect the most promising young people. We will form several interstellar caravans and send them to distant galaxy merchants, and tell them that no matter what happens to humans, they cannot come back."

"But if they don't listen to you, what if they run back halfway?" asked the white-haired general who just expressed his dislike of Lin Youde's bloodline.

"Then I can only hope that the distance will help us. The Milky Way is very vast. Even a spacecraft with a 6-level warp speed will take nearly a year to cross the Milky Way. We estimate that the civil war will last about half a year. Modern military technology makes killing efficient, and the higher the intensity of the conflict, the faster it will be completed."

"But it also means that the casualties and injuries of this conflict will be far more than any previous conflict." General Kork's voice was very heavy. "Before mankind entered the universe, the person who led us firmly believed that after entering the universe era, the abundant resources would make all disputes unnecessary. He called entering the universe the "ultimate solution to all problems." Unfortunately, this adult had almost never made any mistakes in his life, but his final judgment seemed to be wrong."

"Maybe it was just because we were too stupid and not as outstanding as that adult thought that it would become like this." General Zhang added this sentence, which made the atmosphere in the conference room heavier.

"Today, that's it." General Coker sighed, "The decision of the meeting was to preserve its strength and watch, is it okay?"

No one raised objections, although they all abstained just now.

"Then, the meeting will be over now."

When Lin Zhengxiong saw his old housekeeper come in, he stopped fiddling with the Rubik's Cube in his hand. This was his habit. When he was thinking, he liked to twist the Rubik's Cube.

"What's wrong?"

"It seems that the association has been called. I don't know what decision has been made."

"Don't care about them." Lin Zhengxiong put the Rubik's Cube in his hand on the table, stood up and turned to the wall behind him. The next moment the wall turned into a translucent window, and the black universe appeared in front of Lin Zhengxiong.

In front of the black curtain are 11 dreadnoughts in preparation, which are all the assets that Lin's Space Ship Company has secretly built over the years. In order to build them, several planets have been blown up and turned into easy-to-machine asteroid belts. At least 100,000 people died in mining disputes, and nearly 10,000 people died in accidents while building them.

"We are ready. Now, unless Elijabele suddenly makes breakthrough progress, no one can stop humanity from moving towards a militarist empire, and I will be the first emperor of the empire."

The old servant was silent and did not express any opinion on the master's words.

Lin Zhengxiong waited for a while before saying, "Don't you think you should congratulate me at this time?"

"I think I should remind you that you have not yet ascended the throne, and before that everything is just a plan, not a fact."

"Hmph, thank you for your reminder."

"Also, are you really going to use those sealed ship names?"

"Of course, what I want to build is a militarist empire. Of course, I have to use the ship names in the militarist empire, Bismarck, Tipiltz, Yamato, Musashi, Nagato, and Muro. What's wrong with these names? It's more historical than the names of "Company" and "Bumblebee", isn't it?"

"But the names of Queen Elizabeth and Royal Oak are almost the same."

"You usually don't argue with me like this, aren't you?"

"Yes." The old servant agreed, and then immediately reported in a different tone, "The first cruiser arrived, Akagi, Kaga, Aolong, Feilong, and Ruizuo, just finished their warp speed voyage."

"Where is Shohe?"

"It is said that it was a malfunction and stayed at the company's dock for maintenance."

Lin Zhengxiong cursed and then said, "Forget it, start the modification of the five ships immediately, remove the business equipment used for camouflage, and make them real warships."

"yes."

"Have the informant from Old Man Zhang returned with news? What information did my dead brother leave?"

"There is no news yet, we don't know what it is. However, it can be confirmed that the drawings Lin Youde brought back from Sethley have become prototypes and are being shipped to the Von Brown galaxy controlled by Anaheim."

"Do you want to install it on the Enterprise?" Lin Zhengxiong shook his head. "This is what I hate the most about the Universe Army. This boring superstition annoyed me. The spacecraft will not fly faster because it is painted red, nor will it be able to fight a fleet with one ship because of its name Enterprise."

The old housekeeper remained silent.

"My future empire cannot have such superstition, so my fleet must have Prince Eugen, Yefen, Shiyu and Snow Wind!"

The corners of the old butler's mouth twitched.

The Von Brown Galaxy, the high-speed cruiser Counterattack, ended its warp speed navigation and appeared in the cosmic space near the No. 8 Navy Assembly Workshop.

General Zhang looked at the ships under construction in the protective force field below the assembly workshop on the bridge and whispered: "Although I am a person who believes in those evil things, it is still a bit difficult to believe that this ship can create miracles. There is too little thing a ship can do."

"I have a feeling that this ship will have a magnificent 'boat' in the future." Instructor Li's voice sounded much more confident than General Zhang.

"Hope."

Next, both of them looked at the semi-finished ship gradually approaching.

Several workboats are placing a hull made entirely by 3D printing technology on the front semi-disc of the hull that has been installed. The surface of the hull has been marked with the ship name and number in relief according to convention:
