Chapter 46: Unknown Creatures

After dismantling and packing the two bison and the wolf queen, the convoy is back on the road.

Back on the road, the original broken armored car was transferred to Bai Meng and the Mo army, Bai Ling also squeezed into this car, saying that he wanted to personally command the top soldiers to open the road, the original armored car, because of rushing down the steep slope, there is no way to get it up yet.

When the morning sun rose, the convoy came to a mountain col, looked at the winding mountain road, Bai Meng checked the electronic map and said: "Over this mountain beam, it is the 030 military base!" ”

Bai Ling looked at the map: "Well, that's right, there is still a distance of more than thirty kilometers, let everyone get off the car and rest, let's eat something and then hit the road!" ”

………

In the starry sky 2,000 kilometers away from the home planet, on the Shenzhou-1 spaceship, behind Wen Zhiheng, there are more than a dozen major generals and lieutenant generals, which is rare in normal times.

Wen Zhiheng looked at the big screen in front of him with a stern expression.

"Replay the recording!"

On the big screen, there is an image of a starry sky, and as the camera changes, a huge spaceship appears in the picture.

Wen Zhiheng said: "This is the Alliance's Ark 0906 spaceship, after it sent back a piece of impact information three years ago, there is no news, you take a look at the video content first!" ”

On the large screen, the side of the spaceship opens, and a small spaceship flies out of it, turning around and heading towards the blue star below.

The camera follows it all the way down, directly down to the star's huge mountains and rivers.

After stopping, a team of mechwarriors walked out, and then the camera switched to the mechmen's field of view.

"Fang Zhouzi ship, this is the No. 1 mecha team, at present, everything is normal on this star, the oxygen content in the air is very high, about 35 percent, and there are more than ten kinds of gases, which are harmless to the human body!"

"Sub-ship received, continue to explore!"

The sub-ship, which is a small spaceship, is a specially designed landing spaceship, although it is small, but it is flexible, and can be lifted off at will on a non-star body.

Each of them carried two teams of mecha soldiers, each team of fifteen people, led by a captain.

This mecha team has been exploring this non-star body since it landed.

Captain Qi Luping walked in front of the team with the scanning equipment, and he said in the communicator: "You can take off the mask, here is a natural oxygen bar, the air is very pure!" ”

"Poof! Burst! ”

All team members remove the oxygen supply from their helmets and remove their helmets after decompression.

"Wow, that's an extraordinary air!"

"Isn't it, I'm a little drunk!"

“………!”

Qi Luping looked at the team members and said: "Judging from the situation in the past three days, there is no danger here, next, the five of us are a group, led by the team leader, along here, in the direction of one hundred and two degrees, each of them will explore, and after four days, notify the boat of the ark to pick everyone up, no problem, right?" ”

"No?"

“………”

"Okay, then let's do it, the first group will follow me!"

After the arrangement, Qi Luping took his group, chose a direction, and began to continue walking.

Three days later, Qi Luping's team came to a huge lake, and he asked the team to collect soil and water samples that he planned to bring back for analysis.

"The Ark sub-ship, it can be used to drop the vibration wave mapping bomb, there seems to be no life form here!"

For the newly discovered stars, the alliance will use this kind of vibration bomb to map and map the detailed star landform, and its principle is to use a computer to map the coverage of the shock wave caused by the explosion.

"Qi Luping, don't say these speculations, we must make sure that there is no life form in the end, in case there is, we haven't found out, and if we don't get it, it will cause conflict and strong confrontation!"

In the communicator, there was a reply from Fang Zhouzi's boat, asking Qi Luping to confirm again.

"Received, we will continue to explore for a day, estimated to travel 300 kilometers, and then report back!"

The ability of the mecha warrior to move is indeed much faster than the speed of a normal person.

A day later, Qi Luping and two other teams reported again, saying that there were no life forms, and requested that a vibration wave mapping bomb be dropped.

"Qi Luping, the location of all your exploration teams, the sub-ship has been positioned, don't move at will, just keep moving within one kilometer, because when the sub-ship drops the vibration mapping bomb, it will not change the confirmed position!"

"Qi Luping received it, and each group replied, whether to receive it or not!"

"Roger!"

"Roger!"

The Ark sub-ship began to lift off, flying around the entire star in all directions, and dropping bombs and mapping bombs.

"Poof! Burst! Burst! ”

Vibration bombs were constantly being thrown into the strange star, and they were all suspended by a hot balloon, floating more than ten meters above the ground.

Half a day later, these bombs basically covered the surface of the star, and at one point, they exploded at the same time, and on its surface, a shock wave quickly formed around the entire star.

Before the shock wave dissipated, the computer on the spaceship showed the outer outline of the entire star, as well as the detailed topography.

Captain Diao Xingyun immediately said: "The data horse is uploaded to the mother ship!" ”

"Yes, upload it now!"

The first mate next to him looked at the computer and said excitedly: "Captain Diao, the new astral data shows that it is basically the same size as the parent star, and it is a habitable star, we have made a great contribution this time!" ”

"Hehe, isn't it, the alliance is about to add an eleventh colony planet!"

Suddenly, a shadow floated over at great speed, covering the ark boat in an instant.

Qi Luping was stunned and said, "Ah, what's going on?" ”

In the shot, a huge net-like thing opened up at a rapid speed, and it grabbed the sub-boat in one fell swoop, and then, a cone-shaped transparent crystal hit the hull directly.

"Help, help........."

Wen Zhiheng looked back at everyone: "This is the video before the shipwreck, and there is also a video of the mother ship wearing back, it is very short, but it conveys a message, you see!" ”

Next, there is another video, showing the bridge of the mother ship on a large screen, where the captain and dozens of crew members are staring at the computer screen in amazement.

Suddenly, an extremely thick and almost transparent pillar of light directly penetrated the bridge of the mother ship, and then, the screen lost its image, only the voice was chaotic, but the captain's voice was quite firm.

"Sending a signal, the Ark 0906 spacecraft was attacked by an unknown attack, the spacecraft engine was destroyed, and our interstellar coordinates were 0930......... Seven, seven, six, nine........."

Immediately after, the big screen lost its image and turned into a snowflake, and Wen Zhisheng looked at the military bigwigs.

"Let's talk about it, what do you think?"

An officer dressed in lieutenant general's uniform said: "First, from the image of the sub-ship, it is not difficult to see that this star body exists in a living form, and the preliminary exploration work was extremely careless.

Second, that huge net, just like the one we used in the past, the capture net used to capture criminals, is just huge in shape, and that cone-shaped thing is likely to be a lasing weapon, which can make a spaceship with a volume of 100 meters have no power to resist, and third, the attack on the mother ship seems to be some kind of energy attack, destroying a double S-class spaceship at once, this power is the same as our super laser cannon! ”

"General Wu is right, from the data analysis sent back by the sub-ship, we know that the volume of this unknown star is basically the same as the size of the parent star, and it is a very young habitable star, but this unknown creature is somewhat beyond our cognition!"

Another lieutenant general also spoke: "General Wu and General Zheng are right, in my opinion, if you want to find out this unknown creature, you must send a fleet, and the alliance has never had an S-class spaceship being attacked and wrecked, so it's time to show your fangs!" ”

On the bridge, there was silence, and after half an hour, Wen Zhiheng spoke: "I agree with the meaning of Commander-in-Chief Zhang and several generals, in addition, the supreme leader also attaches great importance to the matter of the spaceship crash, and grants us the right to arbitrarily make decisions on the spot, I think so, send a three-S-class mothership to the expeditionary fleet, and rush to the coordinates of the accident together to explore unknown stars and creatures!" ”

Commander-in-Chief Zhang was actually the deputy commander-in-chief of the Alliance Fleet, named Zhang Ming, and he was a little surprised when he heard Wen Zhiheng's arrangement.

Because there has never been a three-S-class mothership that has participated in an expedition, the alliance's three-S-class motherships, a total of six, generally exist as a strategic deterrent force.

Expeditionary fleet, there are eight in the alliance, all of them are equipped with the latest warp engines, which is also a technology that the alliance has only mastered in the last fifty years, theoretically, as long as the protective cover of the spaceship can withstand traction, then, it can even reach more than ten times the speed of light, which is also the most secret technology of the alliance, and has never been announced to the public.

"Is it necessary, Old Wen?"

Wen Zhiheng frowned: "It is completely necessary, this is the third star with a life form that we have detected, judging by their attack, this is a highly intelligent life, which is very different from the previous life star, I mean, it is still overwhelming to quickly subdue it, otherwise, the fleet will fall into an immeasurable war of attrition, because I am an expeditionary operation, and there is no corresponding supply!" ”

After that, many generals negotiated for two more days before deciding on the expedition and the ships to participate in the expedition.

After everyone left, Wen Zhiheng and Zhang Ming sat in his captain's room.

Zhang Ming spoke first: "Lao Wen, what's going on with the home planet?" ”

"Well, which layer of weird energy is weakening, but the spaceship still can't take risks, I've already recorded the order, and I can put it into the home planet in a few days, and go down to every military department of the alliance, let the military department send soldiers first, and start collecting meteor fragments on a large scale, this unknown energy, we must grasp it as soon as possible, otherwise if it is won in advance by other sections, the advantages of the alliance will be infinitely reduced, because the material brought by this meteor is very peculiar, recently, those old hairy people, It's already a little bit of a move! ”

"Do you have any other explanation for sending out the three-S-class mother ship?"

"Hehe, Lao Zhang, we've been helping for thirty years, don't you know my style?"

Wen Zhiheng asked rhetorically.

"The lion fights the rabbit, and he uses all his strength!"

Wen Zhiheng's use of troops has always been to defeat opponents with overwhelming strength, and those who know him well know this.

Some people say that he bullies the small with the big, and some people even say that he does not have a strategy for using troops, but the strength of the alliance provides him with the possibility of using troops like this.

Therefore, during his decades as commander-in-chief, there were basically no unexpected losses.

"Hehehe, you still know me, we are all old, in a few years, we can retire with honor, at this time, I just want to be safe, make some more contributions to the alliance, and it is best to include the new star in the alliance star map, if not, absolutely no harm to the interests of the alliance will happen!"

In the end, Wen Zhiheng's tone became unusually tough.
