At this time, the system prompt sound suddenly appeared in Zhao Chen's mind, which shocked Zhao Chen's heart.
The system issues a rescue mission, which means that this is not a hopeless rescue.
After all, the system will not give a task that cannot be completed at all.
And this is the first time that a system task has a detailed time limit, 100 hours.
Does this mean that within 100 hours, Zhao Waner and the others will not be in danger!
"No, we can't give up!" Zhao Chen said firmly: "Now for those teachers and students who are trapped, we are their only hope!
If even we have given up on them, who can they expect to save them!"
Hearing the indignant words of this student Zhao Chen, the instructors and professors present were touched, but the expressions on their faces were still helpless.
"Classmate, your idea is very good. But the reality is cruel, let me tell you the truth!
Our academy has also sent a fleet to support, but look at it...look at it! This is the situation in the Water Lotus Galaxy that we have recently learned.
There are bugs everywhere in this area!
The last message sent by our trapped students was at this location.
Unfortunately, it is in the center of the area currently controlled by the Zerg!
Even if we really send a large number of interstellar fleets to rescue people, how much will it cost in a hurry?" A mentor stood up and said seriously.
Dean Qin sighed deeply and sat on the chair with his old body. He didn't speak for a long time.
For them, this is already a dead end.
Looking at the overall situation, sending a fleet to support, if there is not enough interstellar fleet, is to die!
It’s not enough that we have already lost a group of outstanding students, we have to send the sheep into the tiger’s mouth again!
No one dares to issue such a rescue order in a hurry.
"Zhao Chen... you have to calm down... maybe... maybe after the imperial fleet is assembled and launched a clean-up operation against these Zerg... your sisters... can still survive." Chu Xuan tried to comfort, but she was not convinced.
I don't really believe what I say.
"It's too late! Their fleet's combat effectiveness means that even if they hide in a safe place, they can only last for five days at most.
It is estimated that it will take about ten days until the Imperial fleet is assembled and a full-scale attack is launched.
By then...the day lilies will be cold!" Zhao Chen retorted.
"How can you, a student, be so insecure? In order to save those who can no longer be saved, you will be satisfied if you send more people to die!" A tutor angrily yelled.
The tutors and professors around also shook their heads, helpless, and sighed.
A tragic atmosphere spread throughout the office.
"Are you sure this is the location where they last contacted us?" Zhao Chen pointed to a point marked on the holographic star map.
There are many dense red dots around that point, all of which are the detected interstellar Zerg intelligence sent back from the areas of the Water Lotus Galaxy that have not yet fallen!
"This is the location where they last contacted us an hour ago. The information they received was that their fleet and the interstellar Zerg were brutally attacked. More than 80% of the starships were destroyed during the battle, and they asked for our support.
After that communication was lost.
The interstellar Zerg itself has a biological magnetic field. When the density reaches a certain value, it can isolate signals and even function as a 'warp jammer'.
According to the situation, if they are still alive, they should be near this area.
If I were them, I would choose to land on a planet, use the remaining starship weapon resources to defend there, and wait for support." Vice President Hong said while analyzing.
Zhao Chen stared at the star map, standing there like an old monk in meditation.
"Okay, classmate. We can understand how you feel. This matter will be left to the teachers. You can go out first." A tutor comforted Zhao Chen.
"I have a way!" Zhao Chen suddenly said.
But the tutor and professor present only thought it was the nonsense uttered by the student out of worry.
"First, we use the fastest starship to set off to the star gate of the galaxy closest to the Water Lotus Galaxy, and then travel through the interstellar marginal space.
After that, continue using the warp drive to get as close to this location as possible.
Because of the interstellar bugs, warp speed navigation cannot take us to our destination, so we will just use ordinary engines to pass through these bugs and reach our destination directly!
Find the teachers and students in distress, take them all aboard the starship, and evacuate immediately!
Compared with the mobilization of a fleet, the rescue operation of several or even one starship is the fastest and fastest!" Zhao Chen expressed his thoughts and drew a line on the star map.
The red line passes through the area of the intelligence that has the fewest interstellar Zerg species.
"Are you kidding? A single starship can travel through the swarm! Even T4-level starships don't have this kind of confidence. What's more, most of the T4 starships are under the control of the Imperial Army. They can't save them.
These teachers and students sent the T4 starship to take risks!" one instructor retorted.
Every T4 starship is very important to the empire. Although the students of the two colleges are the flowers of the empire, if the flowers are gone, they can be planted again, right?
"We don't need a T4 starship, we just need a T3 starship that is fast enough!" Zhao Chen said firmly.
"It's too risky. I don't agree with this rescue method."
"It's too idealistic. If you are not careful, you will be like a moth flying into a flame."
"A starship that is fast enough, a star cruiser? But how to break through the insect swarm? It is unrealistic."
Listening to these mentors and professors relying on their own intuition, they decided that Zhao Chen's plan was not feasible. It was too naive.
Zhao Chen frowned and glanced at everyone present. He knew that he could not convince these people. He also knew that his next behavior would be very risky, and even the secrets exposed would put him in a dangerous whirlpool.
among.
But there are some things he must do!
Zhao Chen said seriously: "In the interstellar universe, what is not a risk?
If we were unwilling to take risks and only did things that were stable, our ancestors would not have left the planet and embarked on an interstellar voyage, nor would they have crossed the galaxy and started the interstellar era!
If you don’t save people! I will save them myself!”
After saying that, Zhao Chen turned around angrily and walked out of the office.
The moment he walked out of the office, he sent a message to Charlotte who was far away at Qingyuan Station.
"Send the T3 Blizzard-class light interstellar battlecruiser to the Northern Starship Military Academy star port immediately to pick me up!"
