"Did you hear something?"
In the Indigo Star System, on a general-purpose battleship of the Third Super Attack Group, a soldier who happened to pass by the warehouse of the battleship seemed to have heard something and asked another soldier who was traveling with him.
"There's no sound at all, did you hear it wrong?"
"No, no, my hearing has always been very good, there's no way I heard it wrong!"
"Well, why don't we go check it out? It's just that we can't open the door of the warehouse! "
Just then …
All the lighting systems in the corridor were turned off at the same time. The corridor that was still bright just now was now pitch black.
Panic … rose directly from all parts of the battleship at this moment.
In the bridge, after a short few seconds of darkness, the lights came back on.
"What happened?"
The captain thought it was the fault of the maintenance crew on the ship. After all, sometimes the power supply would be temporarily cut off for maintenance of some equipment, and this happened every year.
The only difference was that the guys from the maintenance crew in the past would report in advance before doing this.
However, this time, the captain did not receive any notice, which made him furious!
How could they do this without reporting in advance?
Wasn't this just nonsense!?
"Captain, something's wrong. The system shows that the core energy system of the battleship has gone offline. I've tried many ways, but I can't restore it!"
"Now, except for the bridge that is using emergency backup energy, all the other cabins have no energy supply. Even the life support equipment has stopped working. If the core energy is not restored as soon as possible, in a few hours, except for the bridge, everyone in the battleship will suffocate to death!"
Unlike the irritable captain, the first mate immediately checked the entire battleship after the anomaly occurred.
It was not until this time that the captain realized the seriousness of the problem after listening to the first mate's report. This was not a problem with the maintenance crew at all, but a serious accident with the core energy system of the entire battleship.
If this was not resolved quickly, it would really be like what the first mate said, everyone not in the bridge would suffocate to death in a few hours.
This …
This was not a joke.
Inform the battleship technical team to immediately go to the core energy room and troubleshoot the problem! "
"Yes, Captain!"
After the order was issued, more than a dozen technical team members on the warship immediately ran to the core energy cabin.
However, they didn't know that their warship wasn't the only one with a problem. Almost all the warships in the third super strike group were affected.
Soon, the bridge received feedback from the technical team. In the core energy module of the battleship, the zero-point energy system had been completely exhausted and was no longer worth repairing. The only way was to replace it with a new zero-point energy system.
As for the reason, they had already investigated it.
In the zero-point energy system, a large number of absorbed Manrafe particles were found.
This startled the captain. Manrave Particles …
How could this be?!
How could Manrav particles appear on his battleship?
The Manrav particle was a particle extracted from high-dimensional space like the zero-point particle. However, this particle was different from the zero-point particle, which was the main energy source of a technological civilization. Its only function was to accelerate the depletion of the zero-point particle.
Therefore, the Manrave particle also had a nickname, the zero-point particle killer!
Originally, special particles with this characteristic would definitely be the most powerful attack method in the hands of various civilizations to deal with zero-point weapons and warships that used zero-point energy as the core.
Unfortunately, the Manrave particle's penetration of metals was very limited, especially in the face of the interstellar battleship's shell armor, which was easily more than ten meters or even dozens of meters long, it could not penetrate at all.
Therefore, even if a large number of Manrave particles were released on the battlefield, it could not cause any damage to those warships that used zero-point energy.
Therefore, after being called the zero-point particle killer, the Manrave particle received a new nickname …
Incompetent particle!
"Captain, we found it. The Manrave particle was released from the cargo cabin, and the technical team has found the initial release point. It was the batch of supplies from the Heisen Republic!"
"What, are you sure?"
"Yes, the technical team even found a device used to disperse the Manrave particle in their supplies!"
"Damn it, then it was premeditated. What the hell is the Heisen Republic trying to do?"
"Captain, let's not talk about what the Heisen Republic is trying to do. We are now in a very dangerous situation. Because the backup energy is only used to maintain the health system in our bridge and some basic systems, the communication device is not included. We can't even contact other warships now!"
Hearing this, the captain's face became more and more ugly.
If they could contact other warships, then the problem would not be big. At most, after clearing the Heisen particle, they would ask for a new energy system from the logistics department and replace it. The problem would be solved.
But it was a bit troublesome if they could not contact other warships.
"Can the warships and assault ships in the spaceport still take off?"
"No, not to mention that the fighter jets and assault ships are also affected and can't attack. Even if they can, we can't open the spaceport's outer channel door now!"
"What about the escape capsule?"
"The escape capsule can operate. That thing does not use zero-point energy, and the ejection device also uses an independent non-zero-point energy battery module. It is not affected and can be launched normally!"
"Okay, immediately give the order. Except for the bridge team, all soldiers immediately abandon the ship through the escape capsule and seek help from other warships!"
"Yes, Captain!"
At this moment, the captain still wanted to get in touch with other warships as soon as possible. As long as he spread the news and obtained a new energy system from the logistics fleet, all the problems would be solved.
However, what he didn't know was that now, let alone their warships, even the logistics transport ships behind them were also having problems.
Soon, all the crew members on the entire warship entered the escape capsules located in various parts of the warship. One by one, the escape capsules were launched into space one by one!
After the escape capsules were ejected from the warship, before they could use their lights to send out a distress signal, they found that …
They were not the only ones abandoning the ship. All the warships within the range of the wooden shuttle were constantly ejecting escape capsules. All kinds of distress signals were constantly sent out by the lights all over the starry sky.
The void was in chaos!
However, before they could come back to their senses, something even worse happened …
There were so many hyperspace windows that it was impossible to count them all. A large number of warships quickly jumped out of them. Without saying a word …
They directly bombarded all the warships in the third super attack group!
