The Last Commander of the Red Alert-Chapter 768: Exploring the Milky Way

A fleet of over ten thousand Warships set off, gradually closing in on the expanse of the Milky Way. They were soon drawn in by the gravitational pull of the Milky Way and landed on its surface.

Here, communication was still possible. Su Chen, using the display on his Warship, gazed upon the real Milky Way. It was far more breathtaking up close than it appeared from a distance.

The surface of the water shimmered with a dazzling play of colors, as if it were studded with various-colored diamonds. This scene was truly magnificent, resembling a beautiful painting.

"What are those points of light in the Milky Way's water?" Su Chen asked with curiosity.

"According to the information here, it seems to be the reflection of a unique substance found in the Milky Way. When they once collected water from the Milky Way, these lights were present initially. However, once you leave the range of the Milky Way, the water becomes ordinary, safe for consumption with no particular benefits or harm."

It was quite interesting. The water from the Milky Way looked magical while here, but once taken away, it became ordinary water.

One could truly say that the Milky Way was extraordinary.

"What if we conduct research directly on the Milky Way itself?" Su Chen thought this method couldn't be limited to just his own ideas.

"The Rota Empire conducted such experiments, but..." Ju Ling furrowed her brow, "the subsequent data is missing, and I suspect something might have happened."

"If the Rota Empire could conduct experiments, so can we. Let's deploy a Warship to establish a Base on the edge of the Milky Way and see if the Warships on the planet can be used here," Su Chen suddenly had an idea.

Although the Universe was generally considered a vacuum environment, the surroundings of the Milky Way were peculiar. It seemed to allow direct exposure to the outside, but oxygen was absent, making it intriguing.

This experimental result was not something Su Chen had come up with but rather an unexpected discovery by the Rota Empire.

Following Su Chen's instructions, a Shipyard soon appeared on the surface of the Milky Way, extending deep below for over a hundred light-years!

This is where the miraculous System had to be mentioned. If it were any other structure, it would never achieve this feat. Who could make a support pillar over a hundred light-years long?

Even if it were possible, who could descend to the depths of the Milky Way like this?

Even the Rota Empire didn't know what lay at the bottom of the Milky Way. It was a perpetually dark abyss with terrifying water pressure, and even Large Galaxy-class Powerhouses didn't dare to explore it.

Furthermore, even with such a long support pillar, the Shipyard should have been swaying on the surface of the Milky Way. However, in reality, the Shipyard was as stable as a rock, with no sign of movement.

With the Shipyard in place, Su Chen went on to build a regular destroyer. The destroyer was launched into the water and attempted to move forward, surprisingly finding success.

Here, Warships flying in the Universe and the Warships sailing on the sea were identical, except that the outer shell of Universe Warships was more robust.

To prove the usefulness of sea Warships, Su Chen decided to carry out large-scale construction here, including cruisers and aircraft carriers. The prices of these sea Warships were much lower compared to Universe Warships.

But what intrigued Su Chen the most was whether submarines could dive deep into the waters of the Milky Way.

Soon enough, Su Chen's most powerful submarine, the Thunder Submarine, was submerged.

After some observation, it seemed that the submarine had no issues. Therefore, it gradually descended into the water, reaching a depth of around one thousand kilometers. However, the submarine soon sent a message that it couldn't withstand the pressure any longer.

After all, the Thunder Submarine had been dormant since the battles on the planet, and Su Chen hadn't given them any upgrades since then. Their inherent strength was too low.

The current Thunder Submarine could, at most, deal with ninth-rank enemies on the planet.

"System, get to work."

With a single thought, Su Chen instructed the System to act. The System, not bothering to comment on Su Chen's decision, immediately pushed the naval forces to their current limits.

In an instant, the Thunder Submarine transformed into a formidable naval Warship and descended straight down. Within moments, it had descended ten thousand kilometers, then a hundred thousand kilometers and beyond.

The surroundings were still bathed in various colors of light, exceptionally beautiful, yet devoid of any living creatures.

Su Chen speculated that perhaps the Thunder Submarine had not descended deep enough, considering that the Milky Way extended as far as a hundred light-years. A mere hundred thousand kilometers was inconsequential.

At this moment, Su Chen discovered something significant—System was truly remarkable.

Ordinarily, once the Thunder Submarine reached such depths, it should have lost contact with the surface. However, the communication capabilities Su Chen received from the System effortlessly bypassed this limitation, allowing direct communication with the soldiers on board the Thunder Submarine.

To be cautious, he placed a Mobile Construction Vehicle (MCV) inside the Thunder Submarine. If things went awry, they could use the constructed Sub-base to teleport back. Su Chen had even considered the contingency plan.

Previously, Alice's clone had been unable to communicate, possibly due to being a mere clone. If it had been Alice's original form, this issue would not have arisen.

Upon exiting the submarine, what concerned Su Chen the most was whether Milky Way's interior could sustain life.

Dolphins and Giant Squids appeared, and immediately, their bodies underwent transformations.

The surrounding light converged into their bodies, causing them to continuously inflate, resembling inflated balloons.

Then, System's voice sounded, "Dolphins and Giant Squids are undergoing evolution due to external stimulation. Evolution success rate is 10%. Master, would you like to provide energy to increase the evolution success rate?"

Su Chen's eyes lit up. He had realized that the radiance of the Milky Way was not a simple thing; it could actually stimulate biological evolution. This was an absolute treasure.

But if it was such a valuable resource, why hadn't the Rota Empire used it?

"Use it, and quickly."

In the next moment, those dolphins and giant squids, whose bodies were on the verge of exploding due to inflation, dispersed into thin air one by one. Their bodies returned to their original states, except for the appearance of tiny, sparkling stars on their surface, incredibly eye-catching.

Their names had also changed, now prefixed with "Rainbow." They became Rainbow Dolphins and Rainbow Giant Squids. Their strength had similarly improved, directly breaking through the current limits of the Base, reaching the level of the Small Galaxy's Ninth Order.

At this point, there were initial results in the research on Milky Way water conducted on the Warship.

"Commander, the preliminary research conducted by the Warship's Laboratory has shown that there is indeed a strange substance in Milky Way water. This substance can promote rapid biological evolution, but the evolution is highly unstable. Once one drinks Milky Way water, the most common outcome is a fatal explosion. Only a very small number of 'Lucky Ones' can survive. Those who do experience a significant increase in strength, and their bodies exhibit a rainbow-colored appearance."
