Chapter 759: Walking Through the Ashes
"Then you don't have to wait. I looked out the window, "Where's your ship?"
"It's right at our feet. Moonlit Night saw walked to the desk, picked up the phone and pressed a button, "Start." ”
The entire office building suddenly began to shake, and finally rose from the ground and floated into the air, and the appearance of the entire office began to change, the desks were lowered to the ground, replaced by a star map array, and a large number of meters rose near the wall by the window, along with the floor was being replaced, and in just three minutes, the entire office building became a huge warship.
"Alright, welcome to the Artemis, the ultimate mothership of the Moon Capital. "The ultimate mothership, a super-giant battleship that combines all the advantages of a battleship, an aircraft carrier, a missile cruiser, and a missile destroyer, is usually a unique existence," which took me three hundred years to complete, in order to deal with different types of enemies, equipped with super heavy armor and high-power plasma engines, how about it? ”
"It's really good, I think I want to build a mothership. I was looking at the office that had been turned into a bridge, and as soon as the door opened, Sister Mianyue and the blue-haired rabbit I hadn't seen last time walked in together, remembering that her name seemed to be Reizen, and in addition to that, Zakuls came in with her, "How are you now?"
"I'm planning to jump to where the asteroid was supposed to be, and then I'm going to take it further. "The moonlit night saw that while he was talking, his eyes were looking at me, as if he wanted me to make some evaluation.
"You are the captain of the ship, see you on a moonlit night, it is you who choose the mission, not let the mission choose you. "I walked over to the star map," the Leap Engine is in good shape. ”
"Then let's do it, take a leap near Mercury first, and then make the next move. Moonlit Night saw walking over to where the captain should stand, next to the star map facing the main window of the bridge, "Zakurs, it's up to you." ”
"Well, actually. "Sunspots and solar flares are very active at the moment, and the jump engine will be greatly affected, so strictly speaking, I can't guarantee the accuracy of the jump. ”
"Then try it too, I will never leave my own people behind. Moonlit Nightsee couldn't accept such an excuse, "You're the best person in us at operating the Snap Engine, if you're ...... Wait a minute...... Not right......"
"Yes, it's not. I picked up, "I'm the best guy here at operating the Snap Engine." ”
"Then let's get started, set the course, deploy the target point, and determine the coordinates. Iki completed the waypoint setting on the star map, "Sister?"
"The battleship is normal, all the gauges are at stable values, no problem!" Toyohime finished the final inspection, "We can go." ”
"The reflex engine starts, the reflex countdown is three seconds, three, two, one, start the reverse!" "Moonlit Night saw activate the reflex engine, and I was responsible for keeping the actual coordinates of the reflex near the estimated coordinates.
Piercing sirens sounded, and three warning symbols appeared on the model of the warship that appeared on the star map.
"The interference is strong!" I tried my best to correct the trajectory of the jump, "the accuracy of the jump has dropped to 0.83!"
"Hold on!
"I'm doing it!" I gritted my teeth in hatred, controlling the Leap Engine, "Leap...... That's it!"
The Artemis was out of the meloaf for a moment, and the next second, we were blinded by the harsh sunlight.
"Modify the bridge spectral filter to activate the UV reflector. As the Suzuzen-2 used the bridge's light deflection system to shade out the sunlight under the instructions of the moonlit night, the light inside the bridge returned to normal, "How much is the overflight error?"
"Zero-two, very beautiful fold jump, hard work. "The asteroid is not where it should be, and I'm tracking the radioactive trail it left behind, and according to the amount of residue, it ...... It's flying towards the sun!"
"Where's the speed?" Moonlit Nightsaw walked over to Zakurs and looked at the monitor, "How far away are we?"
"It's all under control, but with the asteroid's current speed, in three hours, it will enter the extremely dangerous zone, and then we won't be able to get any closer. Zakuls replied, "I'm tracking ...... at full speed."
The mothership's plasma engines were at full speed and it was heading straight for the asteroid.
"Alright. It didn't take long for Zakours to slow down, "according to calculations, the asteroid will soon float in front of us." ”
"I've seen it, but ......," Zakulls had barely finished speaking, when I saw an asteroid drift past the bridge window, slowly drifting towards the sun, "how can it spin so fast?"
"I don't know, but at this rate of rotation, there will be a day-night alternation every three minutes. Toyohime scanned the surface of the asteroid, "Ikki, can you control the speed to the same as the asteroid?"
"No problem. Iki adjusted the speed of the mothership to the same as the asteroid, so that the mothership and the asteroid were relatively stationary, "What did you find?"
"In the case of direct sunlight, the surface temperature of the asteroid is as high as 800 degrees Celsius, and even we will be roasted in a minute, and I doubt that there are any living people on it. "Also, it seems that many of the equipment on the asteroid is damaged, and I responded to the distress signal, but I didn't get any answer." ”
"There may be all the people dead, but there may also be survivors. I looked at the moonlit night and said, "Decide, captain, what are you going to do?"
"Prepare a transport plane, let's go down and have a look. Moonlit Nightsee made the decision I expected, "I'll choose the mission, right?" ”
"That's right. I shrugged, "Everyone put on their space operation helmets and space combat suits and turn on the temperature regulation system to the maximum, which would allow us to hold up for two or three more seconds if we had to be exposed to direct sunlight." ”
"Pay attention to the amount of oxygen left in the space action helmet, I don't want anyone to suffocate here. Moonlit night saw put on his own outfit, "Do you want it?"
"I don't need to. I shook my head, "I can not breathe, my body and Chaos suit can tolerate the heat, and ......"
"That's good. Tsukiya threw the other helmet in his hand to Reizen, "Zakurs, you and Toyohime stay on the boat, Iki, Reisen (No. 2), you act with me." ”
"Reizen, remember to follow me for a while. I secretly instructed, don't say anything different, this is my wife, treat it differently, "By the way, what type of mining equipment is on this asteroid?"
"Mining robots, fully automated. Moonlit Night saw and replied, "Why are you asking this?"
"Nothing, I was wondering what was deflecting the asteroid from its orbit. According to the moon night, this asteroid has been mined for hundreds of years, and it is a fairly stable celestial body, and it is impossible to change its orbit easily, and it is such an extreme orbit, "Is there any defense force on it?"
"There are NOVA-03 assault rifles and T-10 energy pistols that are standard in the capital of the moon, and the workers and mining robots who are responsible for operating precision machinery have guns in their hands and are the mine police team. "Moonlit Nightsaw didn't have a formal defense force deployed on the asteroid, which is normal," Speaking of which, no one will invade this kind of place. ”
"Maybe, but now sunspots and solar flares are so active that they could cause us problems on asteroids...... Sisstem, can you call the exile over with remote control?" "If there is an exile, I can feel it at will, the current Flame Exile Zero is immune to even 20,000 degrees Celsius, let alone a few hundred degrees.
"I can't do it, sir, the interference of the sun is too strong, and the signal of remote control can't be transmitted. "However, things don't seem to be as simple as I thought.
"Okay, Toyohime, can you open the spatial passage?" I turned to Toyohime for help.
"The space is disturbed by the solar wind, and it is not necessarily connected to the space of the place. "Feng Ji is also helpless, since this is the case, then the only way to go directly is to go directly.
A group of five, we boarded the transport plane, all armed except me, and now, we were about to enter that scorching hell.
The transport plane broke away from the mothership and flew towards the asteroid, which soon approached the surface of the asteroid.
"The temperature is too high, and it is too dangerous to land directly!" said the pilot, who said she could not land normally in this environment.
"Over there, do you see that hangar? land in the shadows, and then you get back into the air, and we'll contact you to evacuate after we've explored the facility, whether or not we find a survivor in the end. Moonlit Night saw sticking to the back of the pilot's chair and pointing to the hangar not far away.
"Understood. The pilot controlled the transport plane and flew into the shadows of the hangar, landing and stopping, "The hatch opens, the heat wave hits!"
As soon as we stepped out of the cabin of the transport plane, an indescribable heat wave swept through all of us, and even when there was no direct sunlight, the heat wave was frighteningly high.
"The communication was jammed by the sun, and we can't even contact the mothership now. "There's only noise in the communicator, which isn't good," I turned around and said to the pilot again, "If the communication is lost, we'll fire flares to let you know where to land." ”
"Understood. "The pilot closed the cabin of the transport plane again and took off into mid-air.
"Okay, now where do we start?" I said, looking at the moonlit night, "we can't run around like headless flies, that would only be a waste of time." ”
"Go to the main control room, where there's surveillance of all the locations throughout the mine, and if we can get there, we can find survivors. Moonlit Night saw a building in the distance of the hangar, "This is where we can take advantage of the three minutes of the night to cross these uncovered roads, the mining equipment is solar powered, and it should still work." ”
"Correct you for something. "The idea of seeing you on a moonlit night is very good, but it is not perfect, it is not her problem, but this asteroid provides us with a little unexpected surprise," the speed of the asteroid's rotation has increased again, and now the rotation causes the alternation of day and night to occur about every 1.5 minutes. ”
"Is it half-cut...... "Tsukiyomi pondered for a moment, calculating the distance from here to the nearest building, "A minute and a half is enough, let's run to that house first." ”
The five of us huddled in the shadows closest to the door, waiting for the next night, a minute and a half, which was very fast, and had to start at the first time.
"Alright...... All right...... Run!" The moment the night fell, the five of us ran to the target's house in turn, in the order of Reisen No. 2, Reizen, Ihime, see you on a moonlit night, and finally me, at one minute and seventeen seconds, I was the last to rush into the house.
"Well, at least we've figured out who sent the distress signal. Yi Ji looked at a corpse on the ground, the corpse was still smoking, there was a pair of rabbit ears on its head, it was obvious that it was a worker sent by the Moon Capital, and the signal transceiver on the corpse's chest was sending out a distress signal in a loop, "The interference is so strong, how can the signal be transmitted?"
"The signal reception ability of the Sixt is different from that of ordinary signal terminals, even the signal with serious interference can be accepted and restored, you see that I can communicate with the Heatham very normally now. "As my AI assistant, Sistelm is naturally very good," it's a shame that he must not have had time to run into the house, although someone pulled him in, but he was roasted while he was outside. ”
"But if someone can drag him in, it means that there are others alive, even if only one person has to be found. Moonlit Night saw that he walked to the door on the other side, "This time the distance is long, we have to run faster." ”
The scorching sun has burned almost everything that can be set on fire here, but we only found one corpse here, so Moonlit Night is right, it's likely that most of the people are still alive, but ......
"What's wrong with the power supply here?" I looked up at the lights in the room, they were on, but I remember when we ran in before, the lights were clearly off.
"It is estimated that the generator is broken and can no longer store electricity, so there is electricity during the day and no electricity at night. "During the day, the solar panels receive solar energy and can supply power, but at night, the sun can't shine, so naturally there is no electricity," There are about twenty seconds left, get ready, as usual, Ichi, the three of you run first. ”
Twenty seconds passed in a flash, and night fell again.
"Run!" Again, the five of us rushed out, and when it was about a minute and twenty seconds, Reizen No. 2 was the first to run to the door of the target building, but the door was actually locked, and Reizen No. 2 was anxious to directly fire a laser with his eyes to explode the door, but after all, it was still a step too late, and when she and Reizen had just entered the door, daylight came.
