Chapter 9: Marg's Giant Ridge Hive
In addition to the dozen or so ordinary soldiers who controlled the movement and firepower of the battleship, the pilot team that went to the periphery of Marg's giant ridge lair to investigate finally settled on nine people.
Three of them were from the federal research team, and they were assisted by six pilots, including Fang Changshou, on the mission.
Interstellar travel was a very boring thing, and like several other people, Fang Changyi sat on the sleeping bed, took out the five energy stones rewarded by the mission, and immediately absorbed them.
The tavami energy floating out of the body wrapped these energy stones, and they were consumed at a very obvious rate.
The fist-sized energy stone contains three hundred catties of energy source condensed in it.
Fang Chang Yi calmed down, feeling the pleasure that Night Howling fed back to him, he wanted to improve his strength as much as possible before reaching the outer solar system.
The sun gradually faded away in the porthole of the battleship, becoming smaller, the sunlight was close to faint, and Fang Changyi saw through the window that there were many meteorites of different shapes floating in the outer cosmic space, barren planets. He saw a brilliant comet streak across the edge, bringing a dazzling touch of color to the silent universe.
The battleship, which was 1,367 meters long and 420 meters wide, propelled its speed to the maximum, and the energy pillar was sharply consumed, spewing out several brilliant rays of light and heading towards the outer solar system.
In the rest cabin, the lights are soft, more than a dozen sleeping beds are neatly arranged, delicious pastries sent by female sailors are placed on the table, wafting fragrance, and a pilot named "Lin Chao" in the team is dancing and telling his experience.
"I heard that the impact of cosmic species on the solar system is becoming more and more violent, and there are several alien lifeforms with a danger level of more than sixty, and there are even cases of alien beings joining forces."
"A month ago, I followed a team to the area where Esla's hive was active, and when I was chasing an alien life, I was ambushed by other alien beings, and three people died on the spot, the mecha was shattered, and the corpse was left in space, which was too cruel."
"Every once in a while, this group of cosmic species will usher in a period of mania that lasts for a month, but it is still rare for the King of Marg's Giant Ridge to come out directly to attack the fleet." The scientist, Merlin, spoke authoritatively, explaining to the rest of the team:
"The area that our warship is going to is the Marg Giant Spine Hive, which is one of the three most terrifying cosmic life forms dormant in the outer solar system, and there are countless insects of various levels of danger, among which the danger level of the King of the Marg Spine is rated as level ninety."
Nan Wanfeng, who was the leader of the team this time, nodded, feeling that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy, "Yes, our task this time is not simple. ”
Fang Changyi listened to their chat, and turned his eyes to the window.
At this time, the warship slowly entered a port and anchored, which is the outermost part of the Kuiper Belt, and it is the strongest line of defense of human civilization in the solar system, and it can be said that the Kuiper Belt defense line determines the fall of human civilization.
And at the dark end of the Kuiper belt, there is a formidable danger.
Marg's Giant Ridge Hive.
The battleship was completely still, and a long and narrow mechanical passage continued to extend from the ship's door, and it took nearly ten minutes to connect to the ten huge cabins outside the port, the mecha external cooperative equipment assembly center.
Fang Changyi followed the team and entered the cabin through the connected mechanical passage, instantly amazed by the scene in front of him.
Above the empty cabin, mechanical arms are working in an orderly manner, some clamping huge power turbines and weapons to install mechs hundreds of meters high, and some are repairing damaged warships.
"Our Tavami mecha itself is only equipped with melee weapons, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the mecha, before the mission, we will come to the external cooperative equipment assembly center to equip the powerful long-range weapons developed by the Federation."
Nan Wanfeng finally informed: "There are more than 1,000 places here where weapons can be assembled, you can find your own location, and after the weapons are assembled, you can directly assemble outside the cabin." ”
Fang Changsan found a weapon assembly warehouse that was unused, and the huge mechanical arm hovered in mid-air.
According to Nan Wanfeng, Fang Changyi released the Night Howling Mecha, and the mechanical arm suspended above it began to work, assembling a long-range weapon for him, like other mechas, it was a small-caliber cannon specially designed to deal with cosmic species and a missile launcher on the left and right.
Among them, 10,000 rounds of cannon ammunition and 16 BP-05 missiles were allocated.
After assembling the long-range weapon, Fang Changyi flew out of the space cabin, and the others were ready, leaving him alone.
Nan Wanfeng's voice came from the communication device: "Okay, everyone is here, let's go to the Marge Giant Ridge Nest now." ”
Seven mechs spewed out a ghostly light and headed for the depths of the universe.
It took about half a day, and Fang Changsan and his team saw the first human corpse, which was not decomposed, but had already lost its moisture, and looked like a dry mummy, drifting in space.
Nan Wanfeng's voice came, "Brothers, soon we will fly into the hive, everyone adjust their state, it is not a joke to deal with cosmic species, we don't have a professional medical mecha, once the mecha is shattered, all that awaits you is death, no one can save you!" ”
Merlin also spoke: "You must pay attention, you can imagine the consequences of falling into space without a spacesuit, in the face of an absolute vacuum of space environment, you may not survive for a minute, you will be exposed to strong microwave background radiation, secondly, the extremely rapid vaporization of moisture in your skin and subcutaneous tissues will make your body swollen, in general, it will be ugly to die."
Amsi: "I'm a little sorry for it. ”
As they went deeper and deeper, a large number of monster corpses from Margo's giant spine hive were exposed in front of their eyes, this creature was full of gray long hair, it was 100 meters long when it crawled out of the body of the female worm, and it could grow to a thousand meters long in adulthood, its eyes were turquoise, its back was undulating, and its sixteen legs were as sharp and sharp as spears.
Continue to go deeper for a hundred kilometers, a group of mecha and cosmic species suddenly appeared in front of the light and shadow, machine gun bullets combined into a net to cover alien life, a blue-white mecha holding a double sword broke through the bullet flow and approached a Margo giant spine worm, cut off two long legs in front of him, and then the lightsaber pierced into the eye socket, slammed it, and most of the head was cut off.
However, there are too many paragons, I am afraid that there are thousands of them, and they cannot be solved in a short time.
"This is the regular army of the Federation, and we avoid this area to avoid misunderstandings."
Fang Changyi and the others bypassed them and entered a meteorite area, which was often 10,000 meters long, strangely shaped, and uneven on the surface, like a wandering continent.
"Be careful, my light brain detects life fluctuations behind that meteorite five kilometers to the right."
The only female pilot in the team whispered a reminder to everyone's ears.
Amsi wondered, "I haven't found any enemies in my Usutiyah?" ”
Nan Wanfeng said in a deep voice: "Cosmic species are not as stupid as you imagined, they survive in the universe, they will use the characteristics of the cosmic space and their own abilities to hibernat, simple scanning of the mecha may not be able to find the target, so don't rely on the detection power of the mecha." ”
Fang Changsan also monitored the danger, Ye Xiao's various abilities were outstanding, not comparable to ordinary mechas, not to mention that his soul matching with the mecha was as high as 100 percent, and he could bring Ye Xiao's abilities to the extreme.
Nan Wanfeng commanded: "Everyone get closer, if there is danger, you can support in time, Lin Chao, you follow me in front, and the others pay attention to the movement on the side." ”
According to his instructions, Fang Changsan came to the left side of the team, Nan Wanfeng and Lin Chao walked in the front, Merlin and the other two members of the scientific research team were in the middle, and the young man named Amsi was on the right, Shanina Lehman, who was the first to detect the danger, and another pilot was at the end, and the team kept the formation and advanced as a whole.
