Chapter 358: The Ship That Broke Down
Chaotic Star Field, Northern Frontier.
Close to the borders of the Norma Empire.
This star field, full of nebula storms, meteorite belts and dark energy anomaly belts, is known as the spaceship graveyard.
It is said that three hundred years ago, humans once fought with the Alien Beast Alliance, and the great war destroyed one star field after another, and countless lives were destroyed.
As a result, the chaos of the current chaotic star field has become a dead field, without any life.
Of course, there are also some adventurers who like to come here for an adventure.
Among them, there is a group of interstellar grave robbers known as 'garbage guys', who will visit this dead realm from time to time.
When the Star Sea Fleet was passing through this dead area, it had to turn off the warp engine and sail through this area normally.
And along the way, it is true that some battleship wrecks can be found occasionally.
But most of the wreckage has no recycling value, and has become piles of cosmic garbage, floating around, and will eventually be captured by planets or stars, thus ending the fate of space drifting.
Just three days after the Star Sea Fleet sailed in this dead field, the radar showed an anomaly.
"Report to the captain, we found that 0.3 light-years ahead, a spaceship has lost power, and the other side is sending us a distress signal!"
The Association of Cosmic Civilizations has laid down many civilizational orders.
Among them, there is a rule that any spacecraft sailing in the universe must do everything possible to provide rescue if it finds a distress signal from its fellow Terrans!
This order is known as the 'lighthouse order' with the most humane aura of human civilization.
It is remembered and followed by various human civilizations in the pan-universe.
Even the prisoners of the two belligerents, the defeated side, have the right to be rescued.
The captain of the No. 1 ship of the Star Sea Fleet, after receiving the distress signal and observing the abnormal radar signal, sent an order to Qian Bu to request rescue.
At this time, there was not much money, and he was awakened from the cultivation room.
Since successfully awakening the genetic talent, the money is not much, and it seems that a different person.
I started to practice frantically all day long, forgetting to sleep and eat.
Not a second was wasted.
Maybe it was the conversation with Lin Fei that night that deeply stimulated him.
I don't have much money now, and I finally got rid of my fat, and my body became thinner, but my body was full of strength, and I looked like a martial artist.
Hearing the report of the captain of the No. 1 ship, Qian didn't feel the command cabin for the first time.
"What's going on? Why is there a ship that has broken down here? ”
Anchoring is the name of the earth in the old times.
It is also very appropriate to use it on this spaceship that has lost power.
Qian Duo carefully checked the radar monitoring data, and then looked at the distress signal sent by the other party.
These distress signals are cosmic universal codes, and the content is only a few words.
"Help! Our ship's engine is malfunctioning! Help ......"
The other party's distress signal has been broadcasting non-stop.
"To save or not to save?"
Captain No. 1 asked about the lack of money.
After a moment of silence, Qian Duo was always a little hesitant.
I always feel a little bad in my heart.
"Wait, I'll think about it first!"
Taking advantage of the room for thinking, there was not much money to pass this question to Lin Fei who was far away in Yanhuang Star through the virtual universe network.
Soon, a mysterious instruction came to the mind of the money short.
"The Star Sea Fleet continues to move forward, reducing its speed to one-tenth of the speed of light!"
So, Qian didn't have much money to convey this instruction as it was. 101 Chinese Net
"Pass the order, reduce the speed of the fleet to one-tenth of the speed of light, and move on!"
After hearing this, Captain No. 1 wanted to continue to say something.
Suddenly, I received a command message in my head.
"Leave a lifeboat for the other party......"
As soon as the order was accepted, a lifeboat broke away from the fleet and slowly flew towards the anchored spaceship.
The merchant fleet of Xinghai Company continued to advance towards the established voyage, and had no intention of stopping.
Captain No. 1 looked at the escape boat hanging out of the window, gestured with his hands on his chest, and prayed.
"God willing, I hope you will be saved! Good luck! ”
After the Star Sea Merchant Marine fleet left, a lifeboat slowly flew towards the spaceship that had lost power.
The spacecraft was empty and fully automated.
But inside the spaceship that sent out the distress signal, it was full of strangeness.
Inside the lifeboat, a mechanical insect armor stared coldly at the surveillance radar.
"Ling Ling, why did you say this spaceship broke down?"
Immediately, a scanned 3D image of the anchored spacecraft and a large amount of data stream analysis came to mind.
"According to the radar scan results, the appearance of this spaceship is 100% complete, ruling out the possibility that the spacecraft was hijacked by star thieves!"
"According to the results of thermal imager scans, the engines of this spacecraft were turned off for no more than ten hours."
"According to the results of the life detector scan, there are still three hundred creatures on this ship that still show signs of life."
"According to the comprehensive big data analysis, there is a 45% chance of engine failure, a 32% chance of energy depletion, a 16% chance of system failure, a 4.5% chance of cosmic rays, electromagnetic storms and interference, and 2.5% of other reasons!"
After reading the big data analysis, Lin Fei's vigilance relaxed a little.
Perhaps, the ship was just unlucky.
As the lifeboat slowly approached the spacecraft hatch, the originally sealed hatch slowly opened.
When the lifeboat enters the hatch, the sealed chamber slowly closes and the decompression chamber begins to be inflated.
A minute later, the door in the decompression chamber slowly opened.
A man in a spacesuit, standing in a metal passage, waved his arms at the lifeboat and shouted loudly.
"Run! You have been deceived! The ship was held hostage by the Star Pirates...... Ah......h
Just after the man shouted at the escape boat, a beam of thermal energy instantly pierced the man's chest, turning him into a cold corpse.
Subsequently, a group of star thieves wearing space armor quickly surrounded the spaceship and threw an interception net to trap the spaceship.
Lin Fei's mechanical clone who was staying in the escape boat was suddenly dumbfounded.
"Ling Ling, your big data analysis is too unreliable, right? Is it the data that is wrong, this most unlikely thing, has become possible! ”
Although it was a mechanical insect clone, Lin Fei was still reluctant to give up.
After all, these mechanical insect clones are rare things that awaken spirituality, and it is difficult to find them in the entire universe.
If, to the point where it could not be recovered, Lin Fei might consider destroying this mechanical insect clone, and would not let it fall into the hands of others.
Of course, this is the last resort in the case of necessity.
"Friends! Your lifeboat, our Dulong Star Pirate Regiment has levied, if you want to live, obediently put down your weapons and leave the escape boat, I will only give you ten seconds, if you don't open the hatch of the lifeboat, we will directly bombard it with laser cannons! When the time comes, it will be roasted into a suckling pig, but don't blame us for being inhumane! ”
"Squeak......
The hatch of the lifeboat opens slowly!
A black armor slowly descends from the escape ship ladder to the tarmac.
"It's pretty good!"
"It's grinding and chirping, like a reptile!"
"Open the mask for me, hold your head in your hands, don't move, be careful to send your life to ......"
