Chapter 57: The Search
"Do you want to check it out?" The noisy distress signal was still repeated over and over again, back and forth with just a few words, and although no important news was heard, it did seduce someone's curiosity.
When Fusang asked again, Luke hesitated, nodded and agreed, it's okay to go down and take a look, the planet below, the people of Horin above don't look like a lot.
If it goes down, it shouldn't cause a violent reaction from those Horin people, right?
Anyway, a large number of Huolin people were not found on the active detector, especially the kind of Huolin people equipped with metal shells, most of the Huolin people, all of them maintained that kind of soft form, and they were live tentacle monsters through and through.
In this state, there should be no problem with the Horin people, unless these guys still have a base underground and hide a large number of armed Horin people.
And in the surrounding airspace, there are no flying groups of Huolin people, it is estimated that those guys should only patrol those places on the border, right? Let Chu Xue find a place where the people of Huolin are relatively rare, and the spaceship will begin to descend.
Such a large spaceship, even if it is turned on the concealment device, will not be motionless in the process of landing, as long as there are sharp eyes, they will definitely be able to see their spaceship landing, but those Horin people seem to have no eyes, in the process of the spaceship breaking through the atmosphere of this planet and slowly landing, those Holin people are as if they did not notice them, and they are still doing their own thing.
Seeing this, Luke also breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, these Horlins were all blind and didn't notice them at all, otherwise, it would have led to those Horin people equipped with metal shells, but it would not be easy to do.
"These Horin people are so stupid, we flew down so blatantly, didn't they even notice it?" Lian also looked at the unresponsive Huolin people on the screen with a surprised face, and was really speechless to these unresponsive guys.
"Did you find out where the signal came from?" This distress signal was really just a recording, even though they had landed on this planet now, and they were not very far from the location of the signal source, the sound in this distress signal was still as indistinct as before.
It's that the strength of the signal is much better than before, and at least it can be confirmed from where it was sent.
"It looks like it's underground, about two hundred kilometers to our left." Myoko looked at the screen, the source of the signal was not far away, and if you flew over, it would not take you a few minutes to reach it.
"Well, there doesn't seem to be any Huolin people over there, let's go over and take a look now, if someone really needs rescue, just help if you can." Naturally, there is nothing to say about this kind of thing, if you do good deeds, there will always be good rewards, I just hope that it is not those Huolin people who send a distress signal.
And Luke was basically sure that it wasn't the Horlins who were sending the signal, and the Horin language translator couldn't translate it, so there was a 95 percent chance that the one sending the signal was someone from another race.
"It's down here." Even if the ship wasn't flying at full speed, twenty minutes later, they were already where the signal came from.
It looked like a Holin settlement, but there were no Horins anymore, and the signal was coming from the largest cave in the middle.
I didn't bring everyone with me, after all, the situation below is not clear, and it would be a bit too hasty to go down with everyone like this, so Luke took Ashigara and Yutachi, and prepared to go down to see the situation.
The others just stayed on the spaceship for the time being, after all, it smelled bad, heh, really bad.
"Fortunately, I put on the helmet, the smell of these Horin people is really big, it was already very pungent when I was at the entrance of the cave just now, I didn't expect that something like smoke had formed under here." Walking through the hole, there was no lighting inside, all the light was shining through the hole, and then some parts of the wall made of special substances were reflected.
These things seem to be able to concentrate the light, making the entire interior of the cavern look like it's lit.
At this time, the passage of this cave was filled with a kind of-yellow mist, although I don't know what it is, but Luke definitely has no intention of taking off his helmet and sniffing it with his nose.
I almost choked when I was at the entrance of the cave, and it would be stupid to do this in this cave now.
"It doesn't look like there's anyone here, how can there be a distress signal?" Along the way, Ashigara didn't see any signs of technological equipment, and all the way was filled with passages that seemed to have been gnawed out by something.
"Okay, don't worry, the signal source is still a certain distance away, maybe we can see it by walking around the next corner." When he said this, even Luke himself didn't believe it, at this time their location had reached a depth of nearly 100 meters underground, and I have to say that this cave was really extending in all directions, if it weren't for the active detector all the time, he would really get lost here.
The road he had traveled before had been recorded by the detector of the foot handle, and when he went back, he just had to follow the same path and return without any difficulty, so Luke was not afraid that the three of them would get lost in this place.
"What's the sound poi?" While walking, Xi Li suddenly tilted his head and muttered in a low voice, as if he had heard something.
"What do you hear? Is there any movement? Luke raised his eyebrows, in this cave of the Horin people, he had to be more vigilant, if he encountered a large group of Horin people, even if there was no danger, but it would inevitably lead to a reduction in appetite for lunch.
"It seems to be the sound of someone banging, similar to the sound in Akashi's room." Akashi often fiddles with new weapons in her room, so the shipwives can often hear the sound of banging and thumping coming from her room.
As a result, the shipwives who lived around Akashi's cabin were all dissatisfied.,Akashi had to move to live in the factory.,It's said to be a factory.,It's actually just a room where the construction devices they brought from the earth.,But because it's far away from other people's cabins.,So even if Akashi makes a lot of movement in it.,There's no problem.。
The sound of banging? Luke thought it was a little strange, with the physique of those Horlins, with their sticky and slippery tentacles, it seemed that they couldn't roll a hammer or anything at all, right? However, it cannot be ruled out that it was carried out by those Horins who were equipped with metal shells.
"Okay, Xili, you pay more attention to where the sound is coming from, we'd better be more vigilant, if this kind of place is surrounded by the people of Huolin, it won't be so easy to get out." The passage here is narrower than the passage on the spaceship, barely enough for a Horlin person to pass, I really don't know what these guys will do when they encounter the situation where two people walk face to face?
After walking on for a while, and after several rounds, the sound that Yutachi had heard before finally became clear, and Luke could hear it now. And in addition to this voice, there is a lot of bustling sounds, as if there is a group of people not far away.
But the problem is that there seems to be no road in front of you, and the signal source is still coming from this channel.
Where is this entrance? Is there anything else that can't be done? Luke approached the not-so-smooth walls and groped around them, trying to find something like a switch.
But after touching it for a long time, except for the slime on one hand, I didn't find any mechanism or anything like that, and those Huolin people didn't seem to play this set at all.
"Admiral, there seems to be a passage POI here."
Ha?
Luke suddenly felt like a fool in those movements, because at this moment, Yuli was standing on top of a rock, pointing in one direction, where there was a gap that was not inconspicuous.
It's not big, but it's okay to let one person walk through.
Luke, who felt that his face was a little unbearable, coughed lightly twice, and led the way through the gap.
The inside of this gap was black, obviously not made by the people of Huolin, but like a naturally formed crevice, which was full of sharp stones, and if you were not careful, these stones would cut out.
But as long as he was wearing a protective suit, he used the light on his helmet to illuminate his feet, and after walking forward for three or four minutes, Luke saw the end of this gap, and there was a red light coming out there.
Isn't it possible that there's lava coming out? In that case, the front is undoubtedly very dangerous.
But now that he has come here, to see what is sending a distress signal, Luke's curiosity is obviously unwilling, so at this time he can only bite the bullet and continue to walk.
It didn't take long for him to stand at the end of the trail and see the scene at the other end of the gap.
Sure enough, it was a large area of lava and magma that came out of the red light, but it didn't seem to be a volcano or anything, but it seemed to have been deliberately made by someone.
At the other end of the hall is a huge hall where the lava flows in a pool, surrounded by a number of rugged-looking mechanical devices.
Several of them were hammering metal ingots repeatedly, and Luke finally saw signs of the living.
