The Long River Fleet was still “divided into two groups.”
One group, consisting of more than 600 battleships, had lost their full-speed sprinting power and was gliding forward at a speed of several tens of kilometers per second.
The Long River battleships in this part of the array flew with a serene and silent demeanor.
The other group, consisting of a hundred battleships, was still spewing mes with tails ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of kilometers long, constantly elerating and sprinting with all their might.
They could no longer respond to any instructions requiring human acknowledgment.
The nearly 100,000-strong Long River Fleet was devoid of any living humans.
The name Long River was removed from the human fleet’s celestial history books.
If the day of victory came, Dillon and his fleet would be engraved on the Hero Monument.
Their shipborne weapons were already depleted, but many detection devices on the fleet were still operating on their own.
Despite having thetest anti-interference shieldingyer, the operation of these high-tech devices was still not stable, being subjected to strong interference and mostly silent. They only asionally flickered as if resurrected by the automatic restart settings, sending back some fragmented information fragments.
However, these information fragments were too scattered, making it difficult for the people in the rear positions to provide guidance.
Only those with extraordinarily excellent operational skills, properly controlling the best equipment, possessing powerfulputing power, and having a deep understanding of various disciplines, including astrophysics, could quickly find some useful intelligence from these fragmented pieces of information.
There were such people on The Giant Wave.
Bernal Connor and several other master schrs from the Particle-Rted Project Team were among them.
A few days ago, afterpleting the final modification of Harrison rk’s individualbat system, these masters had be idle in their assigned positions.
However, they were not the type to sit still, especially Mr. Connor.
He came up with an idea and volunteered to take over the control of the Gravitational Wave Detector from themunication soldiers.
And indeed, these elderly men, using cannons to swat mosquitoes, did a good job.
They had strong learning abilities and extremely sharp minds, quickly bing as proficient asmunication soldiers and even surpassing them at times.
Furthermore, since they were already masters and schrs in various fields, they asionally came up with ingenious ideas to operate the detectors better than others, making improvements on the operation manual along the way.
This was, after all, a new device that had only been born two months ago, and its operation alone had a great deal of room for development.
In just a few days, these old men made several revisions to the operation manual and managed to raise the Gravitational Wave Detector operation level of the entire fleet, causing both pain and pleasure for themunication soldiers of other fleets.
Harrison rk had previously asked Nora Camp to arrange for Martha Owen and all the master schrs to go to the escape pod.
Not wanting to disobey orders or leave their posts, the old men simply moved their equipment into the escape pod.
Surprisingly, this unintentional scheme worked wonders.
The outeryer of the escape pod already had an anti-interference protectiveyer, and coupled with the detector’s ownyer, it theoretically improved the device’s anti-interference capabilities.
Even more subtly, due to the unique nature of gravitational wave fields, additional shieldingyers did not affect their performance.
Now, with thebined efforts of these old men, it took them about ten seconds to find something from the information that had been shared synchronously from the detection devices on the Long River Fleet.
They discovered a unique energy fluctuation.
This energy fluctuation had a much lower energy level than the quarkyer, and its frequency resembled something they had encountered before.
The frequency was strikingly simr to the energy fluctuations they had dealt with for nine months in the Particle-Rted Project Team, which were only heard but never seen in the particle-bearing objects.
Additionally, this frequency fluctuation was constantly intensifying, like the gradually elerating heartbeat of someone who had just woken up.
Martha Owen, who was responsible for the overallmand, immediately reported this important intelligence and suggested that other fleets equipped with Gravitational Wave Detectors specifically search for this energy fluctuation.
Nearly 100,000 high-rankingmanders in themand sequence, including Harrison rk, who was nning to run through the corridor to themand cabin for docking and leave The Giant Wave towards the frontlines in the departureunching bay, received this intelligence.
Harrison rk suddenly stopped in his tracks, a bad feeling surging in his heart.
As expected, within a minute, almost all Gravitational Wave Detectors had responded.
Even the fleets and armed space stations on the third defensive line in near-Earth orbit had simr discoveries, and even more intense!
In the three-dimensional star map of the Sr System in Harrison rk’s eyes, more than 500 bright green dots representing Gravitational Wave Detectors in operation were scattered throughout the Sr System.
Among the Twelve Major Legions, almost every legion had at least several dozen.
Every additional detector that found a simr response turned the green dots to red.
The stronger the response, the brighter the red light.
Harrison rk scanned the star map, and the ominous feeling in his heart suddenly erupted like a tidal wave.
In an instant, he felt a bone-chilling cold, the chill creeping up his spine and spreading up the back of his neck like tendrils of ivy, causing numbness and pain wherever it went.
Eventually, this chill gathered at his forehead.
Feeling slightly dizzy, Harrison rk saw double images.
This was the human emotional control’s self-protection mechanism..
