Chapter 596 Duke of Machinery’s Last ‘Little Gift’ [Please Pre-order All Pre-Orders] (Ch 596)

The next second, the entire video screen became blurry.
Then a beam of light suddenly shot out from the Mechanical Age base, but that beam of light did not pose any threat.
Therefore, the alarm of the Qingyuan starship did not sound.
“Report, we have detected an extremely strong space signal, but because its technology far exceeds the existing space technology, we do not yet know what the use of this strange space signal is.” A communications officer on the bridge reported hurriedly.
Space signal?
Sun He and others still don’t know what is going on.
Ding ding ding. Deputy Captain Qi looked at the communication terminal on her wrist. She clicked it and saw that it was a communication request sent by A Yan with a line of words on it.
Deputy Captain Qi immediately walked to Commander Sun He and said, “Commander, A Yan has requested a video call with you. She said she has something very important to report to you. It has something to do with this strange space signal in front of us.”
“Bring it in.” Sun He said.
A Yan’s video window appeared in front of Sun He.
Before Sun He could speak, A Yan spoke first with a serious face: “Just now, my memory terminal suddenly decrypted a memory.
The beam of light we see now is actually a cross-universe signal that is meant to release the spatial coordinates of our universe.”
Sun He’s expression changed: “The spatial coordinates of our universe? How can you be sure that this is the case?”
A Yan said in a deep voice: “Because this project was once in the charge of me and two other intelligent life forms from the Angel series, but after completing the mission, our memories were blocked.
I just saw that beam of light and happened to recover that memory.”
“But doesn’t the connection between universes require a ‘coordinate key’?” Sun He questioned.
This was the information that the cardinal of the Holy See Empire had told him before.
In order to establish connection between the two universes, there must be corresponding ‘coordinate keys’.
A Yan said seriously: “You are right. But the research and development project that the Duke of Mechanical asked us to carry out is in the event that the Mechanical Era plan fails.
The coordinates of our universe are announced, and at this time other universes sense the coordinate signal, and they can get the “coordinate key” by simply calculating for a period of time.
Then build a ‘cross-universe star gate’, and then you can send your own fleet into the other universe.
Commander, our top priority now is to shut down this “space signal”; otherwise, the longer it continues, the more universes will know our coordinates.
In a few years or even centuries, countless fleets from other cosmic civilizations will launch expeditions to our universe!”
Sun He’s heart was shocked. Doesn’t this just correspond to the ‘Black Forest Law’?
“Can’t we just destroy the technological facility that activates this ‘spatial coordinate’?” Sun He asked.
A Yan shook his head: “That scientific research facility has an energy shield that exceeds that of a T5 starship. Even if you want to storm it, it will probably take half an hour, and we can’t afford to wait for half an hour.”
“Do you have a way to shut it down?” Sun He asked.
A Yan nodded: “Although I don’t have a direct way to shut it down, after all, I have participated in this plan. I have a way to interfere with and destroy this space coordinate.
But I need the cooperation of your three T5 starships!”
Sun He was silent for a moment. He stared at A Yan and said, “I now grant you the highest authority in the Qingyuan Army. You can do whatever you want.”
Hearing what Commander Sun He said.
The secretary Qiao Rongrong next to him was hesitant to speak. After all, A Yan was once a member of the Mechanical Age. Although he had helped the Qingyuan Corps before, he had not truly integrated into the Corps like A Qi had.
Giving her such high authority now is really risky.
Deputy Captain Claire remained silent. Since it was the commander’s decision, it was not right for subordinates like them to interfere.
A Yan was relieved to hear the promise. She didn’t expect the other party to agree to her so quickly.
“OK.”
Just like this, Sun He and others began to wait quietly.
Sun He closed his eyes, as if thinking about something.
The last gift left by the Mechanical Duke was truly unexpected to him.
That tough guy really wants to fight him to the death.
Three minutes later, the beam of light disappeared.
The signal of the space anomaly also dissipated.
A Yan appeared in the video window, her expression relaxed a lot: “I used the space modules of three T5 starships to create a space interference signal to offset it. Ultimately, it destroyed the transmission of the ‘space coordinates’.
But you’d better prepare for the worst. In these three minutes, no one knows whether other cosmic forces will capture this space coordinate.
Once captured by those unknown cosmic civilizations, as long as the technology reaches the T5 level, they can rely on calculations to obtain the “coordinate key” to establish a connection with our universe.
By then… you should know what’s going to happen.”
Sun He’s expression was solemn. He naturally knew what would happen at that time.
This is like letting a hyena smell blood and letting an eagle see the little white rabbit on the ground.
“I see. Thank you for this time.”
Sun He looked at his subordinates with a relaxed expression: “Ah Qi, check the situation at the Mechanical Era base camp to see if they have really given up resistance.
If you give up resistance, you and Ayan will be responsible for executing the previously formulated plan and recruiting and managing those intelligent life forms.
Claire, please cooperate with their actions.
Other combat starships will rest in place; if they find a hostile starship, they can take action to destroy it.
In addition… block all news about this ‘space signal’ and don’t let it get out.
It is considered as the top secret of our Qingyuan Corps.”
Sun He spoke the last words quite seriously.
A Yan interrupted on the other side of the video and said, “Such a strong spatial signal fluctuation can actually be sensed by our entire universe.
It is impossible for other interstellar forces not to notice it if they are willing.”
“I know this matter cannot be kept secret completely, but this is the only thing we can do now.” Sun He said helplessly.
The Qingyuan Legion had just experienced a great war and could not allow such threatening news to spread.
“Anyway, it’s hard to say whether other cosmic forces have captured the signal coordinates of our universe.
Maybe we are lucky.” Sun He said with a chuckle, but there was a certain emotion suppressed in his eyes.
This can only be regarded as self-deception.
