Chapter 663: Outsiders Found
It has been three years since he came to this planet, and according to the registration age of the Nuolan Empire, Zheng Hao is already 29 years old, which means that in a few months, he will receive an admission letter from the Cullen Center for Advanced Study. However, the exploratory work still needs to continue.
After three years, Zheng Hao's footprints have spread to most of the continent of the planet, but the real exploration is only 15/1000. After all, to unlock the secrets of a planet, you can never stay just on the surface. Early in the morning, after Zheng Hao put on the exoskeleton protective suit, he was going to lead the team to explore a canyon in the 34.24 million kilometers of mountainous areas in the west, which was the 323rd time he led the team to explore, which can be said to be familiar with the road.
Landing on the tarmac, the team members were already waiting. The number is not large, ten members of the elite airborne team plus two researchers, one is responsible for mineral exploration, and the other is responsible for biological sample collection.
"Dr. Cotton, Dr. Heidi, you're here early." Zheng Hao smiled, and the facial armor quickly shrank, revealing Zheng Hao's head. Cotton and Heidi bowed slightly, "Academician Siebs." Zheng Hao greeted the ten soldiers again, and then said with a smile: "Captain Fire Wolf, the safety of the three of us will be entrusted to you." ”
"Academician Siebs, rest assured, we will definitely protect your safety at all times." The Fire Wolf was confident that he had carried out such a mission no less than thirty times, and that no other signs of intelligent life had been found on the planet so far, and all they needed to do was defend themselves against the beasts.
The group entered the canyon explored today, where the grass and trees were luxuriant, and a small stream flowed out in a zigzag. "Academician Siebs, you should take a look at this." The fire wolf transmitted a piece of data to Zheng Hao's terminal, and a three-dimensional map of the canyon appeared on the terminal of Zheng Hao's arm.
"The results of the scan just now found that there was a higher biological intelligence reaction in the canyon." After the fire wolf finished speaking, Zheng Hao said, "Are you saying that there have long been high-level intelligent beings on this planet?" This is impossible, the damage to the planet in the early stages of the development of intelligent life is irreversible, and this planet is a perfect primordial planet. ”
The fire wolf said, "Academician Siebus, what if these people are not the natives of this planet? ”
Zheng Hao thought for a moment and said, "I've heard that there are illegal forces inside the planet, such as resistance groups, interstellar pirates, and the like, do you say?" ......" the fire wolf smiled, "Maybe we will make unexpected discoveries in this exploration." ”
"I think we should immediately stop exploring this incident and report it to the base." Zheng Hao immediately said solemnly: "After all, your task is to serve as a guard in this exploration, not to fight interstellar pirates. In addition to blocking, there seems to be a distrust of the strength of the Fire Wolf team.
The fire wolf smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, Academician Siebs, we are very professional in dealing with this kind of incident." "The meaning is obvious, he intends to deal with this group of unknown forces. Zheng Hao pretended to be helpless and said: "Okay, I still have reservations, at least we must communicate with the base first, and we researchers have no combat ability, leave us a soldier, we look for a hidden place and wait for reinforcements." ”
The fire wolf said, "It's okay, wolverine, you stay here, but you don't have to report this little thing to the base, huh...... Three hours, if we haven't come out yet, you can report to the base! "Fortunately, the fire wolf still retains some sanity, is not arrogant, and leaves some hands behind.
The fire wolf team left, this emergency has nothing to do with Zheng Hao, since the base was built, Zheng Hao has never done anything sneaky. Moreover, Zheng Hao's reaction before was the normal reaction of imperial scientists in the face of unknown contingencies. If you really want to say it, the worry and fear shown by Zheng Hao are all acted, after all, he is also a master of breaking the Skyclave.
Three hours later, the rest of the Fire Wolf Squad still hadn't returned, and Wolverine couldn't help but feel a little anxious, but he still trusted his captain and teammates. Zheng Hao said: "Wolverine members, it has come to the time agreed with the fire wolf, but they still haven't come back, at least we can be sure that they have suffered an accident, now I ask you to contact the base immediately and report the current situation." ”
The wolverine was a little impatient and said, "No! Academician Siebus, we should wait a little longer, maybe the captain is on their way back. Zheng Hao said: "Science can't pay attention to possibility, suspicion, and we have not received accurate information, we should have judged that they had suffered an accident, and now every minute may become an important guarantee to save their lives." ”
"Alright! Dr. Siebers. The wolverine was speechless and immediately contacted the base. What's going on? Signals in this area are blocked. Hearing the voice of the wolverine, Zheng Hao immediately took out a ten-centimeter electronic snake from his armor, "Base, I'm Jack Siebs, we found traces of suspected resistance groups or interstellar pirates in the No. 231 Canyon, and now our location is very likely to have been exposed, and the signal in the canyon has been blocked, please support in time." ”
After saying that, Zheng Hao put the electronic snake into the grass, this electronic snake has elementary intelligence, and can use optical camouflage to simulate the environment, only when he is out of the signal shielding range, he will send a message, and in that case, the enemy cannot intercept it at all.
Just three minutes after Zheng Hao released the electronic snake, someone finally appeared in front of them, these people were holding backward particle cluster guns, ragged, and said in the lingua franca of the Nuolan Empire: "Stop resisting, lay down your arms, we guarantee your safety." ”
Zheng Hao took the lead in raising his hands, indicating that he was not carrying a weapon, and the two scientists followed, Zheng Hao said: "Wolverine, put down your weapons, there is no need to make senseless sacrifices." Although the wolverine was unwilling, the situation was pressing, and he could only lay down his arms.
