Chapter 26
Warp drive.
This was a concept that Li Wenyuan had often heard of in science fiction novels. It could be subdivided into many types, but in general, it was a way to allow a spaceship to travel faster than light.
...
While he was farming, through the excavations of the alien experts, he successfully obtained a technological drawing from a relic.
That technology was the warp drive.
Li Wenyuan also discovered that the effect of this universeâs warp drive was a little stronger.
[ Warp drive ]
[ Technology level: 8]
[ Introduction: Even though faster-than-light navigation has become an indispensable part of interstellar travel, we must find a faster way of navigation. The technology of the idealistic civilization has given us some inspiration. Perhaps we can directly tear apart the continuity of time and space, reconstruct time and space at the quantum level, and make it consistent with the destination to achieve the effect we need]
[ Possible technology: None ]
The warp drive was a terminal technology in the technology tree. At this point, the mother planetâs database could not predict the theoretical technology it could produce.
Its introduction seemed a little strange, but Li Wenyuan found it to be an extremely powerful technology after some experiments.
The so-called âtearing apart the continuity of time and space to rebuild time and space at the quantum levelâ did not change the position of the ship, but the position of space.
It wasnât that the ship had arrived at its destination, but that the space the ship was in had become its destination.
Its actual effect was teleportation, true teleportation.
The spaceship that was hundreds of lightyears away just a moment ago appeared in front of them in the next moment.
Li Wenyuan didnât know the specific range of the warp drive, but he knew that the teleportation alone was worthy of its Level 8 technological difficulty.
At present, all of his advanced technology was basically dug up, which also made him have great expectations for the other relics on the mother planet.
However, a bug-like technology like the warp drive naturally had some shortcomings.
First of all, tearing apart the continuity of time and space required a huge amount of energy. The larger the space, the greater the energy consumption. Therefore, the warp drive could only be used once in a short period of time.
Secondly, teleportation required a large amount of data with a destination to build a consistent space and time. It was impossible to reach places that had not been to before.
However, its weakness was not worth mentioning compared to its effectiveness.
This time, due to the urgency of Craybowâs request for help, Li Wenyuan was not sure if the fleet would be able to save them in time by hyperspace navigation. Therefore, he decided to use the warp drive to quickly arrive at Craybowâs trade enclave.
All life in the galaxy was also cautious of this mysterious fleet that had suddenly appeared.
The bee colony was puzzled as to why the fleet had come here without sending out a hyperspace signal, while Craybow could not tell which civilization the fleet came from.
As a megacorp, they could name most of the civilizations in the Milky Way, but they had no idea what civilization this black fleet was from.
âMustache Mao, youâre very knowledgeable, can you tell where this fleet came from?â
The alien with a long beard stroked his beard and said,
âI donât know,â
âIf you donât know. why are you so close to the front? Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolfâŠâ
âThatâs not true. My vision is not good. I canât see clearly if I donât move closer.â
âIf your eyes arenât good, go get another one. Donât leave it here and take up space.â
âItâll cost me two yearsâ worth of salary to change an artificial eye. You young people always put on all kinds of artificial limbs when you have time, but you donât know that your life contract will never be terminatedâŠ

Blenning didnât hear the chatter of his employees, but his brain was spinning fast, thinking about the possibility of this fleet.
As the person in charge, he was truly experienced and knowledgeable. Otherwise, he wouldnât have been able to sit in this position.
âIs it the Turbulence Empire? It was unlikely. Their ships are usually blue in color⊠The Duncan Race? No, this group of pacifiers would never send out a fleet unless they attacked their territory⊠The Khur Alliance? Forget it, itâs already good enough that these criminals didnât hit me when I was downâŠâ
He recalled the civilizations that he had recently been in contact with and were nearby, but he did not meet any of the conditions.
âWho else could it beâŠâ
As he thought about it, he suddenly found an unremarkable word from the corner of his memory.
Ten years was enough for a person like him, who was busy with all kinds of business affairs every day, to forget a lot of memories.
There was only one part that he had never forgotten.
âCould it be⊠The Administrator?â
While he was thinking, he did not notice that he had subconsciously said this. When he raised his head again, he found that his employees were all looking at him.
âManager, do you know the origin of this fleet? Is âthe Administratorâ their name?â
âManager, are we saved?â
âThe manager is talented and knowledgeable. Heâs the pillar of Craybow!â

Even at the moment of life and death, there were still people who flattered him. However, Blenning did not say anything. He just stared at the black fleet in distant space.
This time, he felt that he had guessed correctly.
The âbee colonyâ began to launch a probing attack on the mysterious fleet that had suddenly appeared.
Their goal was to completely destroy this trade enclave, so they naturally couldnât stop their attacks just because other fleets arrived.
Moreover, the queen bee of this âbee colonyâ didnât think that the black fleet was a match for them.
Although she felt an indescribable terrifying aura from the armor of these battleships, she was confident that she could drive away or even destroy this fleet with the advantage of numbers.
A group of gun-nose bugs aimed their long and hard nasal cavities at the black fleet.
These large creatures could compress the acid produced in their bodies and shoot it out at an extremely high initial speed. They were the main means of attack for the bee colony.
In the interstellar era where field barriers were widely used, many shields were unable to block this acid.
This was because there was a parasite that lived in a strong acid environment in the liquid, which could change the flying speed of the acid-corrosive liquid.
For example, the acid could suddenly slow down, deceive some shields that were specialized in blocking high-speed flying objects, and then quickly corrode the armor of the spaceship.
The queen bee of the bee colony was also an experienced fighter. She knew that most civilizationsâ ships were thin-skinned and heavily stuffed with strong firepower but weak defense.
While they were able to wipe out a large bee colony in an instant, they were easily defeated by the bee colony, which traded injuries for injuries.
She believed that the enemy would soon be defeated by huge losses, but this time, she had miscalculated.
The acid disappeared the moment it got close to the battleships. The blue light that represented the shields flashed, but no one saw what happened.
The queen bee was stunned for a moment, then it continued to shoot acid-corrosive liquid.
The exact same scene happened again. The acid disappeared the moment it touched the shield, whether it was at high speed or low speed.
The black fleet finally moved.
Their muzzles slowly turned and stopped in one direction.
The bee colony that blocked their vision did not have any effect. The black muzzles were firmly locked onto the gun-nose bugs hiding behind the countless bees.
In the next moment, rainbow-colored light illuminated the entire galaxy.
The light beams of various colors from the black fleet formed a scene of death, instantly vaporizing thousands of bees that were blocking their way.
The gun-nose bugs that were trying their best to hide didnât escape either. The better ones among them only had a football-sized wound, which was not worth mentioning compared to their size.
As for those who were unlucky, they would be completely bathed in the destructive light beams and reduced to basic particles.
This scene naturally shocked the queen bee, but she quickly began to think about how to fight back.
âThe losses are huge, accounting for 1% of the total number of âbeesâ, but fortunately, our numbers still account forâŠâ
Her thoughts were interrupted by a beam of light that brushed past her body.
On the largest battleship in the black fleet, a huge cannon larger than her body was aimed at her, and a dangerous light was gathering in it.
And this time, the queen bee, which had always ignored everything, showed a rare look of fear.
