Volume 1 Interstellar Vastness Chapter 49 The Wreckage of Zeus
In the command room, everyone put down their work and slowly walked to the porthole that was transparent to the ground, and everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them.
"What the hell is going on here," Binks said in shock as he looked at the sight in front of him.
"Oh, my God," Mars said as he was shocked by what he saw.
The wreckage of the size of the Zeus floated around the South Gate ship, there were fighter planes, carrier planes and even human remains, and the South Gate ship began to gradually slow down, and the ion shield at the front of the ship protected the hull from the wreckage.
"Search for survivors" As soon as Yukiya came to her senses, she immediately asked people to start searching for survivors, although everyone knew that the chances of searching for survivors at this time were almost zero, but she had to do it.
"What a tragic interstellar war this must be" Fang Mobei muttered to himself as he looked at the scene in front of him, it was not difficult to imagine that if the Tiangong came here, the final outcome would be the same as that of Zeus.
Everyone looked through the wreckage and saw a huge dark brown planet in the distance, the planet Tokta.
"Attention everyone, in five days it will be in the outermost orbit of the planet Tokta" The announcement sounded in the command room.
"Binks, let your people start searching for the other party's radio band" Yukitani Shan said seriously, "Mars, send an unmanned fighter to patrol around the South Gate ship"
Binks and Mars each went about their work after receiving the order, and they couldn't help but take it lightly at this moment, after all, after seeing the tragic situation of the Zeus, no one would want to see the South Gate ship follow in the footsteps of the Zeus.
"What do you think?" Xue Gushan turned her head sideways and asked Fang Mobei.
"I suggest sending a tow plane to collect some wreckage, we don't know what kind of weapon the other side is using; In addition, if it is possible, collect some of the wreckage of the other party, we don't know anything about them now," Fang Mobei pondered.
After hearing Fang Mobei's suggestion, Xue Gushan hesitated slightly, then turned her head and said to the adjutant beside her, "I remember that there was a tow plane parked on our ship."
"Yes, it's the tractor No. 17, and the pilots are Li Ziming and Wang Mumu," the adjutant replied.
"Hmph, he," the corners of Xue Tani's mouth lifted, and then said, "Let them collect some wreckage, and if possible, find out if there are any wreckage left by the other party."
Fang Mobei looked at Xue Gushan, "In addition, can you send a probe to Planet Tokta for a close-up observation, it is best to know the atmosphere, surface and other data of Planet Tokta."
"Okay, it's all around with some wreckage, let's send one or two probes under the cover of these wreckage, and hopefully bring back some more data before it is discovered."
Fang Mobei nodded, looking at the huge wreckage of the Zeus in the distance, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, "Captain, can you find the wreckage of the Zeus command room, if it is possible, I want to take someone into there to investigate"
Xue Gu Shan looked in the direction indicated by Fang Mobei, she understood Fang Mobei's intentions, if the command room of the Zeus could be relatively intact, then she could find some clues from the database in the command room, "No problem, you take your people on the tractor"
After saying "understand", Fang Mobei turned around and walked out, while calling Gu Yiyi and the others in the headset.

South Gate ship, No. 2 apron
After the seven unmanned fighters ejected from the ejection port, they formed a triangular formation and began to fly around the South Gate ship, and Wang Mumu was already fascinated by the unmanned fighters in the universe.
"Wood! How can there be so much curiosity day by day! Li Ziming watched the wood being hooked by several unmanned fighters, and reprimanded him dissatisfiedly.
"Brother Ming, you said that Captain Fang Mobei wants to bring someone over and carry out the mission with us, right?" Wang Mumu lifted the two boxes of supplies on the ground and walked towards the warehouse.
Li Ziming sighed, "Who are you?" Let the people of the special service team carry out the mission with us, obviously we cooperate with the special service team to carry out the mission, is it okay" After speaking, he glanced at Wang Mumu who came over.
"Brother Ming, you say, will we be in danger?" Although Wang Mumu is usually a little dumb, he still knows that he is worried about his life at the critical moment.
"Don't worry, there will be no danger" The hearty voice came, making Li Ziming and Wang Mumu subconsciously look outside the tractor, only to see that Fang Mobei and the others were already standing in front of the tractor and greeted them with a smile.
"Captain Fang Mobei!" Wang Mumu waved his hand excitedly at Fang Mobei and the others. Li Ziming smiled a little steadily and nodded to Fang Mobei and the others.
Blake commanded the mechanical sappers to carry some of the simple materials they needed onto the tractor, while Fang Mobei and Gu Yiyi were discussing the route of the tractor with Li Ziming.
"Set off in 30 minutes, it is almost 400,000 kilometers away from the target wreckage, similar to the distance from the earth to the moon, and it only takes 10 minutes for the tow carrier to arrive after turning on the fusion drive, but there are countless wrecks in the middle, if you forcibly turn on the fusion drive flight, I am afraid it will take a big risk" Li Ziming looked at the coordinates on the monitor and frowned.
"It's true, but with the original speed of the tractor, it will take 3 hours to arrive at the earliest," Fang Mobei nodded.
"It won't take 3 hours, 2 hours will do......" Wang Mumu was frightened back by Li Ziming's eyes as soon as he spoke.
"Oh?" Fang Mobei looked at Wang Mumu and Li Ziming, obviously there was something strange in them.
"Well, it won't take 3 hours, you can get there in 2 hours" Li Ziming explained with an embarrassed smile, and kept glaring at Wang Mumu as he spoke.
Fang Mobei raised his eyebrows, "It seems that this tractor of yours is different from other tractors" Fang Mobei looked at Li Ziming teasingly, he had already guessed seventy-seven eighty-eight in his heart.
"I'm usually fine, but I think I can do a few more trips in the specified time when I work and earn some contribution points."
"Don't worry, we can't take care of this," Fang Mobei said with a smile.
There are many relatively loopholes in the Tiangong system, and the time and cost required to fly the pilot of the interstellar vehicle from junior to senior are not low in the current era, whether it is a carrier aircraft or a tractor, it is managed by a senior pilot or pilot with several junior or intermediate pilots.
According to the responsible person system, the tractor No. 17 is responsible for senior pilots like Li Ziming, and the task execution and daily maintenance are all responsible for the responsible person of the aircraft.
Li Ziming looked at Fang Mobei gratefully, and his heart also increased a lot of good feelings towards him.
An hour later, the tow carrier No. 17 sailed away from the South Gate ship under the escort of three unmanned fighters and headed towards the target wreckage, this mission can't help but be the most important to Fang Mobei and others, and it is also extremely important to the entire South Gate ship, the entire special service team is on the tow plane, once there is any mistake, even Xue Gu Shan is to blame.
"Captain, Mars Squad escorts you," Mars' voice rang out from the cockpit.
"Mars, what kind of person are you remotely controlling the drone on the South Gate Ship, as if you have made a lot of sacrifice," Fang Mobei said disdainfully.
A sneer came from the communicator, "Captain, I can't tell you're still a real person"
"Come on, but seriously, you don't need to be so close to us, you let a drone go to the target wreckage first" Fang Mobei looked at the largest wreckage of the Zeus that was getting closer and closer outside the porthole, and said in a deep voice.
"No problem," Mars said with a smile, "Fox 2, you go and explore first."
As soon as the words fell, Fang Mobei and the others saw an unmanned fighter beside them speeding towards the wreckage of the target......

South Gate Ship, Command Room
"Captain, professor, come and see," Zhang Ziming shouted as he suppressed his inner fluctuations and looked at the band in front of him.
"What did you find?" Xue Gu Shan and Binks hurriedly gathered around Zhang Ziming and looked at the holographic picture in front of him and said.
"There are many bands like this detected by our acoustic wave detectors from the planet Tokta," Zhang Ziming said excitedly, and if confirmed, he would be the first person in human history to receive clear biological waves from extraterrestrial civilizations, "This is not a radio band, but a biological wave."
Then he said, "Xue Gu Shan was ready in her heart, but at this time, she really received the signal of the extraterrestrial civilization creature, and her heart still couldn't be calm.
"Judging from the strength of the band and our distance from the planet Tokta, we can guess that there are giant creatures on the planet Tokta, and there are also tiny creatures, and the gap is huge" Zhang Ziming frowned and shook his head, obviously he didn't have much confidence in his guess.
"Your bold guess, this is the first time in human history, let's not stick to our own worldview," Binks said, standing behind Zhang Ziming, patting him lightly on the shoulder.
"Have you seen Godzilla? In a movie at the beginning of the last century, I guessed that the giant creatures on the planet Tokta were similar to Godzilla's size" Zhang Ziming looked at the captain and professor with an incredible face, "Of course, there are other creatures, almost the same size as humans, and judging from the received biological radio waves, there are at least 5 or more creatures on the planet Tokta. ”
"Is it a sapient being?" Xue Tanaya asked.
"No radio signals were detected, and if we analyze the bioelectric waves alone, we may not have found any verbal content," Mieko sighed and continued, "Of course, it is not ruled out that they communicate and socialize through other means."
"What about the exploration group? Did you find anything? Xue Gu Shan straightened up and looked at the exploration team.
"Nothing, the planet Toqueta is covered with dark brown clouds of thunder and lightning, the clouds are so thick that we can't see clearly, but the data from the probe show that the oxygen content on the planet Toqueta reaches 29.8%," replied the head of the exploration team.
"With an oxygen content of 29.8%, it's no wonder, it seems that Ziming's guess is correct," Binks muttered.
"Earth-like Cretaceous period? How can it be! How could a swarm of dinosaurs destroy the entire Zeus! Xue Tani Shan said incredulously.
Zhang Ziming frowned, "Then there is only one possibility, these Godzilla they have wisdom and are extremely destructive."
Just when everyone was arguing, Xue Gushan's heart had already begun to rise, "Where is Fang Mobei at the moment?" ”
