Comprehensive Comics KanColle: Building a Dimensional Empire from Scratch

Lu Chen was stunned.

"Wait, how long did you say it was?"

He glanced at the data. It was impossible for Chieko to make a mistake in such a small matter as timing, but it was indeed very different from what he perceived.

"The curvature of spacetime in imaginary space is different from that in the outside world. Time there is not linear and may jump on the timeline."

"When you merged with the Cocoon of the End, the released Honkai energy was probably too intense, distorting time there."

Xiao Hui did the math.

"But fortunately, nothing went wrong here?"

"Yes."

Tomoko answered respectfully.

"During this period, there were no large-scale Honkai events on Earth, and the level of science and technology advanced rapidly."

"Kiana and the other observation targets were not in danger, and the Universal Angel Force was not deployed once."

"Humanity has just completed the construction of its first interstellar spacecraft. Under Theresa's leadership, we are preparing to form a space team and launch into space."

Chapter 672: Kiana: Hello everyone, this is my commander father

"call--"

On Earth, two years passed in a flash.

Classes, training, practice, exams, playing and frolicking...

For the students at St. Freya's College, time flies by in each ordinary day.

Since that day, the Honkai disappeared from the earth. There has never been a great Honkai, and no Herrscher has appeared.

These Valkyries, apart from dealing with some sporadic Honkai beasts and public security incidents, don't even have many opportunities to fight in actual combat.

Although scientists are unsure of the reason, the overall risks and burdens faced by Valkyrie are indeed reduced, allowing them to fully enjoy campus life.

On the college square.

Theresa stood on the stage, full of energy, announcing an important message to the Valkyries below.

"Today is the day when humans are ready to go into space for the first time."

"As outstanding students of Saint Freya, you will serve as the vanguard, representing Destiny and humanity in your first exploration of space."

"Oh……"

The Valkyries are eager to try.

With the support of Honkai energy technology, Tianming completed the leap from traditional working fluid spacecraft to anti-gravity starship in just a few years.

Thanks to the weakening and disappearance of the collapse, the Earth's technological level is also advancing by leaps and bounds.

Interstellar travel and exploration of outer space have finally been put on the agenda.

"So, here's a list of the astronauts who first explored space."

Theresa cleared her throat.

"Raiden Mei, Kiana, Bronya, Yulandel, Anna Shaniat, all Valkyries above A can participate."

"Don't be afraid. Teacher Himeko, Teacher Shigure Kirara, and I will be with you too."

The best pilots for Honkai-powered spaceships are naturally the Valkyries who have excellent adaptability to Honkai energy and have received space education since childhood.

"Wow……"

The Valkyries who weren't chosen sighed with envy.

Although Kiana was a mess in history, physics, geography and other subjects when she just transferred to grade 12, she was fortunately able to pass the exams with the full support of Bronya and Mei.

Coupled with her extraordinary talent in astronomy and her combat ability that was unrivaled in the entire Saint Freya, it was no surprise that she was selected into the first group of astronauts.

"Teacher Theresa, are you going with us?"

Anashaniyat asked.

"Well, that's what the Archbishop meant."

Theresa nodded, showing a maturity and thoughtfulness that did not match her age.

"The Bishop is very concerned about the situation outside the Earth. I am responsible for taking care of you and directing the exploration of outer space."

She briefly introduced the mission to everyone on the holographic interface.

"We will explore the environment around Earth and within the solar system, looking for traces of the Star Empire and other possible extraterrestrial civilizations."

"If we have the chance, we will try to leave the solar system. Some scientists believe that the galaxy is wrapped in imaginary tides, making it impossible to travel far, but no matter what, we have to try."

"Oh……"

The Valkyries all looked up at the starry sky at the same time.

"Aliens? Will we fight them? How many times have they visited Earth before?"

Nourishes—

The holographic interface opened in front of him. Otto was in the Destiny headquarters, paying close attention to the situation here in real time.

"Don't worry, Tianming's spacecraft is fully equipped with weapons and is loaded with Houkai fission bombs. It has the ability to conduct interplanetary operations."

"Besides, you should have received combat training at St. Freya's Academy, so be prepared."

"Yes--"

Everyone agreed.

The selected Valkyries packed up their equipment, lined up, and then boarded a vehicle to the starship landing base.

A light blue spaceship was docked in the open space. It was slightly smaller than the frigate.

"This is the Destiny-I spacecraft. From today on, we have entered the interstellar age."

Theresa encouraged the students.

"Wow……"

Even after countless training sessions before officially setting sail, Mei, Bronya and others were still amazed at the advancement of this spaceship.

Unlike the rocket-assisted spacecraft of more than a decade ago, its interior space is quite large, and the outside of the hull is equipped with missile launchers, just like in science fiction novels.

The Valkyries suppressed their excitement and took their positions.

"Ok?"

Jizi and Theresa noticed that Kiana had been acting quite calm. She looked up at the sky, as if she was thinking about something.

"What are you thinking about? Don't you want to take a look at this spaceship?"

Mei patted the white-haired ball.

"Ah...uh..."

Kiana thought it was nothing special and not as advanced as the toy the commander gave me.

She looked at the starry sky and took a deep breath.

"Dad and Mom...are always watching over me from heaven."

"Now, I can finally go find them. I want to tell them that I have become an excellent Valkyrie."

Kiana straightened her clothes.

Two years was neither short nor long. I had indeed spent an unforgettable student life in St. Freya and had a very happy time.

I also made a lot of friends.

"Oh……"

Everyone was stunned.

"Kiana, you..."

Ji Zi wanted to say something but stopped herself. She never imagined that Kiana's obsession was so deep.

In her eyes, it was a little girl who, in pursuit of her illusory dream of seeing her parents again, became a Valkyrie, went into space, and traveled all the way to where she is today...

Logically speaking, at Kiana's current age, she would no longer believe in those fairy tales.

In the sky, that is, outside the earth, there is nothing except the dark universe and starry sky.

But they really couldn't bear to break the pure girl's fantasy.

"It's okay, Kiana, I'll be with you."

Theresa was also moved and took Kiana's hand to comfort her.

"You and your friends will have a better future. Your parents would be happy if they knew."

"In the future, I will live a good life and become someone who makes them proud."

"Well...I'll be seeing them soon!"

"Eh?"

Bronya always felt that what she said was not very auspicious, but it was not easy to remind Kiana, so she was choked.

Several people talked across servers for a while, and no one noticed the problem.

Two days later.

The starship has completed its final self-check and everything is ready.

"Destiny-I starship, prepare to depart."

"Remember to stay in touch at all times."

“5、4 .3、2、1……”

At Tianming’s headquarters and in various aerospace research departments.

Scientists and scholars closely monitor the spacecraft's movements and analyze the status of each component and module.

boom--

After the timer ends.

A faint blue light spurted out from the bottom of the starship, and under the action of the anti-gravity engine, it rose steadily and slowly into the sky.

Then, it adjusted its attitude, pointed the bow upwards, started the thrusters, and rushed out of the atmosphere like a meteor flying in reverse.

"The gravity engine is normal! The Houkai reactor is normal! The life support equipment is normal!!"

Reports came one after another in the control hall, and Otto also went to the scene to observe the situation.

The area near the starship landing and take-off base was already crowded with ordinary people who came to watch the fun.

Reporters excitedly gave on-site reports:

"This is the first time humans have the ability to travel between stars! It's also the first time they've explored outer space!"

"From now on, we have the possibility to freely explore the universe!!"

“This is one small step for destiny, one small step for the Valkyrie, and one giant leap for mankind!!!”

"Let's follow the footsteps of the Valkyrie and see what's out there in outer space!!!——"

Most of the world's population was watching the live broadcast on television.

Everyone was excited about this great achievement.

In the Destiny spaceship, Theresa and Wuliangta Jizi were responsible for the starship operation, and the other Valkyries took on some auxiliary work.

Swah——

Theresa planned and explained the route for everyone on the star map.

"We'll first orbit the Earth, then explore the surrounding area. In that order, we'll explore the Moon, Mars, Phobos, and Deimos..."

"After that, we'll try a long-distance extrasolar voyage to search for traces of extraterrestrial civilization..."

She picked up a stone tablet from her luggage and looked at it. It was left behind by the ancestors of China thousands of years ago. It recorded the experience of alien spacecraft visiting the earth in ancient Chinese characters.
