Chapter 221: Ambush
The Solar Sail requires a long acceleration process.
However, the distance between Great Dawn Planet and Great Ursa Planet was so short that the Cat’s Ear Spaceship reached its destination before fully accelerating.
Luo Wen initially assumed the alien spacecraft was returning to its home planet. But as he observed its gradual repositioning, he realized he had miscalculated.
Why was it heading toward the Great Ursa Planet?
When Luo Wen’s avatar had previously docked a bio-ship at Great Ursa Planet, he left behind dozens of Brood Queens, which produced a large number of bio-ships. The meteorite strike had used only a fraction of them, and they were quickly replenished.
On Great Dawn Planet, bio-ship production was slow due to the need for secrecy, as the ships couldn’t leave to absorb radiation. On the Great Ursa Planet, such limitations didn’t exist.
Hidden within the asteroid belt, bio-ships there freely absorbed cosmic radiation to grow.
Over time, their numbers had increased significantly. The oldest of these bio-ships had grown to 20 meters or more, reaching Hawk-class status and outfitted with electromagnetic cannon components.
However, the distance between Great Dawn and Great Ursa made deploying these reinforcements difficult without detection. Luo Wen had planned to wait until Great Dawn’s bio-ships grew in sufficient numbers before engaging the alien spacecraft.
