Chapter 157: Landing
In the smoke bubbles formed by the projectile explosion, more than a dozen autonomous ships rushed out with a long trail of smoke and dust, and the smoke and dust bubbles also became full of holes from 'full' because of them.
"Commander, the target is gone."
"What happened to the explosion just now?"
Bocauer asked that the attack of an autonomous ship comes from vibrations on its surface, and that kind of attack does not cause an 'explosion' on the target.
"The cause is unknown, it could be the cause of that unknown object."
Bocauer was silent for a moment, then decided.
"Let the autonomous ship team patrol the vicinity for a period of time, and if something unexpected happens, it can also respond in time."
"Understood."
At this time, Huogu and Twilight on the surface of the planet are looking up at the starry sky, and with their observation ability, they will naturally not be affected by the spectroscopic effect of the atmosphere, and they will see the whole process of the explosion.
[Is this okay?] There won't be any surprises, right? 】
"Don't worry, the explosion has already happened, so the plan is still in control, how is their situation?"
At the same time, Huo Gu'an asked the other party in turn, although he did not understand the specific principle, but in terms of the macroscopic observation ability of the universe, Huo Gu was a step stronger.
[There are so many fragments, I'm not sure which one.] 】
"Well, that shows that the plan is still working very well, and they can only do the rest on their own."
As Hogu and Twilight communicated, the explosion was also part of the plan.
Countless debris from the explosion flew everywhere, and some large pieces of debris were captured by the planet's gravity, moving in a circular motion around the planet's orbit.
The 'astronauts' of this operation were hidden in one of the small containers, and inside the metal body was a sarcoma wriggling in a buffer gel.
"It was thrilling just now......"
"Da Zhuang, are you embarrassed to say, aren't you the one in charge of observation? Anything later, we're all finished! ”
"I... I don't know what's going on, but all of a sudden, it pops up from the induction radar......"
The bevel shape of the autonomous ship can be used to a certain extent to deflect the observation of radio pulses, and when the target is completely facing the target, the only radio reflection point is only a small area of the tip of the head.
Originally, due to the long distance, the reflected radio signal will be attenuated, but now the signal itself is not strong, so naturally it can only wait until it is close enough before the radar will give feedback.
Strictly speaking, no one is wrong.
Of course, these are things that the gatherers don't know.
"Well, now is not the time to argue about who is right and who is wrong, immediately report the data information for which you are responsible, and ensure the smooth progress of the follow-up plan."
The gatherer, who was in charge of the group's operations, interrupted the argument between the two companions.
"The solar energy extraction organ is normal, and the internal circulation is being adjusted."
"The vector nozzle is working well, with 98% of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen fuel remaining."
"The local damage to the shell is 13%, which is within a controllable range, and the debris in the vicinity is being repaired."
"The impact of the explosion just now caused the rupture of the blood vessel wall, and the repair time is six minutes."
……
"Shakyu, due to the direction, we didn't enter the predetermined orbit, what should we do?"
Everything else is easy to solve, it's all internal problems, but the track does involve the entire action plan, and the collector in charge of this part can't make up his mind, so he can only ask for help from the collector who commands the entire group this time.
"Send me the orbital information."
"Okay."
Looking at the current motion parameters of the metal bodies, the rockers roughly understood what was going on, and due to the offset in direction, they had crossed the predetermined orbit and entered a more outerly orbit.
"Our ultimate goal is the starport wreckage, stabilize the current orbit, and then proceed according to the original plan."
"Understood."
When everything is on track, Shakyan sets his sights on the starport wreckage.
"Although there were some accidents, but no matter what, we have crossed the most dangerous loop of the entire plan of action, and all that remains is a race against time, and we can't drag it until the time to fight those alien fleets......
The metal bodies carrying the rocking pills orbited the planet in circles and circles, and the distance between them and the starport wreckage was gradually getting closer.
When a certain distance is reached, the metal body will change to a circular motion and maintain the orbital angular velocity of the starport wreckage.
In the theory of relativity, when two objects have the same velocity and direction, they can be regarded as 'stationary' objects in their fixed coordinate systems.
At this point, they can start moving.
Of course, in this process, following the third law of Newtonian mechanics, while firing the rhizome, a reaction force will also be generated, and the metal carrying the rocking pellet will further the distance between it and the starport wreckage, so it must be a success.
The rhizome was not manipulated by Hogu, the life field on the surface did not cover that far, and the predecessor of this rhizome was a gatherer, and the rhizome flexibly bypassed the obstacles, wrapping around several exposed skeletons of the starport wreckage, and narrowing the distance between the two little by little.
"Well done, we're landing."
They left the metal body and stepped into the wreckage of the starport, and their appearance was very different from that of the gatherers on the surface.
The appearance is similar to the 'death squad' that forcibly landed on the starport during the last space battle, with a composite metal skeleton that protects the internal body, and six feet like suction cups, which can firmly attach objects, whether it is to take objects or fly on the wall in the wreckage of the starport, it is very convenient.
Of course, in order to defend themselves, a pair of fangs is naturally impossible to be missing, compared to the previous group of 'death squads', the shakyan does not have a buffer airbag that occupies most of the body size, and the space is no longer hollow, and there is an extra cavity ejection tube that can attack remotely, which can shoot three bone spurs.
Both defense and attack power have been greatly improved.
The tail is connected to a waste sac, and the exhaust gas waste of the body's metabolism will flow into this independently, no way, after all, they are too small to be self-sufficient in space, and when the capacity of this waste sac reaches the limit, they must return to the metal body to complete the supply.
"Send a landing signal to the surface."
Commanding the metal body, Shakyugan and the other gatherers crawled into the pitch-black starport passage.
On the surface side, after receiving the radio signal from the wreckage of the starport, it can be regarded as a real sigh of relief.
…… However, if they can predict the future, they will find that they are relieved a little early.
