Chapter 1927 Secret Fortress
Once the cargo was cleared, the Swan's engines were restarted.

"Check all airlocks, increase reactor power, start engines, and reset course! We have a big deal to do!"

Alyssa seemed in high spirits, and the optimism and fearlessness unique to recyclers returned to her.

There is no need to consider any formation or battle line, nor the whereabouts of the starship. Recyclers can go wherever they want. They are the freest group of people in the entire void.

Alyssa is very talented in fleet command and her judgment of the battle situation is very accurate. As long as she is willing, she can continue her studies in the military academy of the Xuanshui Federation. With her military achievements and prestige, it will be no problem for her to become a general and the commander of a main fleet.

But freedom and adventure run in Alyssa's blood. Like her grandfather, she will die on a journey rather than lying comfortably in bed.

The army wasn't for her.

The Swan left port again, originally intended to head for a war zone where wreckage might be found for looting, but after leaving the port this time, Alyssa abandoned the original route and rerouted it to a completely unknown star region.

The Swan left the space station's shielding force field and immediately started the jump.

Li Chengxi didn't mention it before because the distance was too far. Anyway, Alyssa and the others would definitely pass by if they wanted to go to Blackhand Port, and they happened to be active nearby recently.

But even though it seems very close from the star map, it is actually definitely not reachable in one jump.

The Swan went through seven or eight jumps and four gravity voyages, during which it also waited for the reactor and jump device to cool down. It finally arrived near the coordinate location on the star map about 20 hours after leaving the port.

This star field nominally belongs to the Xuanshui Federation, but in fact no country or individual has control over the dark star field. After all, it is too vast and too dark to be effectively monitored.

When the Red Maple Republic raided the Star Gate, it also took the Dark Star Field and successfully infiltrated into the territory of the Rotating Water Federation, and launched an attack on the weaknesses of the patrol fleet.

Moreover, the star field that the Swan is currently visiting is even more remote. Even smugglers would think that this star field is too far away and would not pass through here.

To be honest, Alyssa even doubted whether any ships had ever come to this star region.

Darkness is the main theme in the vicinity. The stars seem distant. Looking through the bridge, you will not see anything except darkness. Even the void creatures that like to live in the dark star field are completely missing.

"We're here, and there's nothing to see here."

"Look around here, there should be something there."

It is often said that seeing is believing, but in fact the eyes are the most unreliable sensory organ, and there are so many ways to deceive vision.

Villania turned on the scanner and radar, An Yun also put the instruments on his head and began to use psychic power to explore the surroundings. The Swan turned on the searchlight and continued sailing at normal ship speed.

Almost ten minutes later, Li Chengxi suddenly said:

"Reduce the ship's speed. It's best to shut down the engine and use the attitude control nozzle for propulsion."

Alyssa gestured, signaling Carlos to do so.

The speed of the Swan had obviously slowed down. Using the void background as a reference, it looked like it was not moving and was spinning in place.

"It seems like there's something nearby, but my psychic powers can't lock onto it."

An Yun said:
"There's nothing on the radar."

"The scanner found anomalous gravity data, but the source cannot be determined."

"It's hidden, wait a minute."

Almost as soon as Li Chengxi finished speaking, everyone on the bridge saw a golden light emerge from the darkness, poking at the darkness in front of the left side of the Swan like a finger. In an instant, the light flashed violently, as if a layer of translucent coat was peeled off, and a huge sphere that was no less than a planetary fortress appeared on the bridge of the Swan.

This made many people sitting in their seats so shocked that they almost stood up. If they had not slowed down, they would have crashed into such a huge target.

"Not really. It's not invisible, but it's hidden by folding space. At most, it can only scan out a few abnormal readings. If you hit it directly, you won't hit the entity."

God's eyes can ignore all illusions and deformations, but cannot see through the distortion of space. Logically, Li Chengxi should not be able to detect it.

But on the screen, it is displayed very clearly, and you can see a detailed introduction by right-clicking it.

This is also why Li Chengxi knew how it was hidden.

In other words, this huge planetary fortress was deliberately designed so that only Li Chengxi could discover it.

"what is this?"

"The fortress of the Order of the Glowing Ion Yin."

Li Chengxi was looking at the introduction of the fortress:
"But I can't guarantee that there are still people alive inside. It hasn't moved for nearly four or five hundred years, and it's not on the list of known branches of the Glowing Ion Yin Order."

Alyssa picked up the microphone after hearing this:
"Hangar prepares the shuttle, we are landing."

–‐‐——–‐‐——

When the Glow Ion Yin Society learned of Li Chengxi's existence, they could almost be described as ecstatic, but as mentioned before, most of the branches of the Glow Ion Yin Society are completely independent and scattered throughout the known universe.

Doing so can avoid being wiped out in one fell swoop to the greatest extent, but the downside is that some branches have not been in contact for too long and are completely forgotten.

The size of this planetary fortress is slightly smaller than that of the royalists, but it is definitely of planetary size. Lights set up to avoid ship collisions can still be seen on its surface.

But these lights have obvious defects, and it is obvious that they have not been maintained for a long time.

Alyssa had no objection to this. She had said before that digging graves was the norm for recyclers, and exploring ruins was their job. When she was a child, she had been to the ruins of the ancient elves many times with her grandfather.

The Manta was quickly refueled, and Alyssa quickly decided on the people who would enter the fortress.

Including Sanafia and the golem called Benben, a total of twenty people went up together.

All personnel were equipped with heavy protective clothing, carrying detection equipment and weapons and ammunition, and Hall piloted the shuttle to leave the Swan.

In fact, there was no reason for Alyssa to go. It was safer for the captain to stay on the battleship.

But the habit of the recycler is that the captain will take the lead in the charge, especially when exploring ruins, and Alyssa would be particularly worried if she didn't follow.

——Perhaps this is space opera.

The closer you get to the fortress, the more you can feel its enormity, especially when compared to the Manta.

Logically speaking, someone should have contacted the Swan to inquire long ago, but no matter how they fiddled with the communication, there was only dead silence. Perhaps there really were no living people on this planetary fortress.

Just like the fortress that houses the Magic Mechanical Godhead, there might only be a bunch of over-mechanized corpses left inside...
