Interstellar War: My Star Fleet is Invincible - Chapter 25
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Scientific research was the destiny of Harris and the others.
Brian had given them this opportunity.
Thus, Harris had to stick to his post and achieve a glorious victory, even on a battlefield without any gunpowder.
…
“I hereby announce that all members are ready for battle.”
“We are ready to set off.”
Their objective was Planet Terra.
Inside the destruction-grade battleship that was leading the fleet, Brian humbly consulted Harris.
“Excuse me, sir, but why are you so opposed to using space hyperdrive and warp drive technology for superliminal travel?”
Harris was nervous when he saw Brian putting himself at such a low position.
“The Overlord is too polite.”
“There are two reasons for my objection.”
“Firstly, it’s not appropriate to expose this superliminal travel technology too early. It’s only suitable to be used as a trump card.”
“Secondly, superliminal travel will compress the space in front of the battleship, while the space behind the ship will be stretched. Planet Bhutler has mastered this technology, and they have the relevant monitoring equipment. This change can be detected from more a light year away.”
“Thus, if we were to engage in superliminal travel now, it would be like holding a torch at night. It would not help the fleet to hide.”
“Furthermore, the distance between Planet Helka and Planet Terra is only 100 million kilometers. If we use warp drive or spatial hyperdrive to travel, it might result in us going beyond our destination. If we want to control the destination of our journey accurately, we will have to consume additional energy for acceleration and deceleration. This is similar to the principle of using a larger amount of electricity when a computer is switched on and off.”
Brian was enlightened after hearing this.
It turned out that there were actually many details that needed attention just for an ordinary interstellar voyage.
He had almost made a fatal mistake!
It seemed that it was a wise choice to bring Harris along.
Then, Brian looked back at Number One.
That beautiful woman was also looking at him affectionately.
Number One was truly his virtuous wife.
At that moment, Brian saw the woman in front of him, who he had slept with before, in a new light.
Then, Brian continued to ask Harris questions.
“Then, how should we travel?”
“We can just use the regular engines to travel. I’ve also added interference devices and stealth coating to the engines of the destruction-grade battleship. That way, we’ll be able to avoid being spied on by the Bhutlerian S Battleships.”
Harris didn’t wait for Brian to ask. Instead, he offered some advice.
“I have hacked into the technological system of Planet Bhutler and obtained information on the monitoring device that monitors superliminal travel. It has been equipped on the destruction-grade battleships. The Overlord can use this device to deduce the location of the full S Battleship Fleet and ambush them in advance. Even if the Bhutlerian fleet does not pass through Planet Terra, we have enough time to return to Planet Helka and protect it.”
!
Brian was overjoyed.
They could actually detect traces of superliminal travel within 100 million kilometers.
Futhermore, he did not need to abandon Planet Helka.
He wanted to see if there were any fleets travelling at superliminal speed in Region 15.
Out of caution, Brian asked again.
“Harris, when we use this kind of device that monitors superliminal travel to scan outer space, will we be discovered by the Bhutlerians?”
“Please rest assured, Overlord. The Bhutlerians are extremely confident and believe that very few people can reach the level of superliminal travel. Thus, they did not develop any anti-surveillance devices.”
Brian was very satisfied and nodded.
He was in no hurry to use the device.
“Any other suggestions, Harris?”
“Reporting to the Overlord, the S Battleship from Planet Bhutler should run out of energy when it reaches the vicinity of Planet Terra through superliminal travel. In order to cope with their combat needs, they will definitely switch to a less energy-consuming normal-speed engine. When they switch to a normal-speed engine, they will instantly consume a lot of energy.”
“At this moment, the defense system of their battleship will temporarily lose its defensive capabilities due to insufficient energy supply. If we attack at that moment, we can greatly weaken the combat power of the Bhutlerian fleet.”
“That is an exquisite strategy. We’ll do as you say!”
Then, Brian had Harris monitor the traces of superliminal travel in Region 15.
Unfortunately, the monitoring device did not respond.
“Pass down my orders. Let’s set off!”
When Brian’s order was passed down, the soldiers on the starship took their places and steered the starship towards Planet Terra.
This was accompanied by the roar of their engines.
Then, the large fleet from Planet Helka rushed out of the atmosphere of the in an instant with a blue flame tailing behind it as it headed towards Planet Terra, which was 100 million kilometers away.
In Brian’s battleship…
“Oh my god, has the Helkan fleet become so powerful…?”
At this moment, Bob was looking at the dense Helkan fleet in the starry sky outside the window with surprise.
Brian had brought Bob along because Bob had an important role to play.
In order to lower the guard of the S Battleship Fleet, Bob would need to send a false message to the S Battleship Fleet that Planet Terra was still under the control of the Bhutlerian guards.
Bob was shaken by the power of the Helkan fleet.
Ever since his identity as a traitor had been discovered, he had been under house arrest by the Sweeper Protection Squad and had never seen the outside world.
Naturally, he did not know the level of technology development on Planet Helka.
Every day, he wanted to find an opportunity to escape and find his family. From then on, he would no longer participate in the battle between Planet Helka and Planet Bhutler.
However, after seeing the powerful fleet of Planet Helka, his heart wavered.
After all, he had become a traitor on Planet Helka because he wanted to depend on the powerful Planet Bhutler.
Now, the technological strength of Planet Helka might be even greater than that of Planet Bhutler. Thus, what reason did he have to be a traitor that everyone despised?
However, there was something he could not understand.
How did Planet Helka build so many interstellar battleships in just one year?
A year ago, the people on Planet Helka could only hide in simple caves underground to keep themselves warm. Now, they could even travel in space!
Bob was very knowledgeable. He could tell that the huge battleship under his feet had the ability to engage in spatial hyperdrive!
There were only a few of such high-tech battleships on Planet Bhutler, but the Helkan fleet had already produced more than twenty of such battleships.
It was as if the fleet from Planet Helka had appeared out of thin air.
It felt so unreal.
Bob looked at Brian, who was in front of him. Then, he found the answer.
A year ago, when he tried to assassinate Brian with the short knife that Planet Bhutler had given him, he couldn’t even cut Brian’s through clothes.
One had to know that the short knife was a Bhutlerian short knife that had been forged with the latest technology and could cut through iron like mud!
It seemed that the rapid advancement of technology and the battleship fleet on Planet Helka was brought about by the “Overlord” in front of him.
Bob’s legs felt weak.
The Bhutlerians had actually sent him to assassinate such a terrifying person a year ago.
Then, Bob sighed.
“Lord… Overlord, if you had created such a huge fleet a year ago, I definitely would not have had the guts to assassinate you. I— I am truly unforgivable.”
