Chapter 303: Self-Destruct
When the enemy warship followed the Kate Eagle spacecraft out of the planet Escobar 50,000 kilometers away, without warning, the information bridge suddenly launched an attack on it.
Due to the fact that the Kate Eagle's own regular weapons are too powerful, this time its attack method is still the same as the last attack on the mercenary battleship, that is, ramming, accurately destroying the curvature engine of the enemy battleship without causing it to explode, and at the same time ensuring that it can still use at least one conventional engine.
Although this enemy warship is large, because it is not prepared for war, the various positions inside the battleship are not fully allocated to intelligent creatures. In fact, there are only a dozen sapient beings inside it.
When these dozen intelligent creatures found that the target spacecraft that had been tracking tens of thousands of kilometers suddenly disappeared, they were collectively stunned for a moment, and before they could react to what was going on, they suddenly felt a violent vibration in the spacecraft, followed by the crazy flashing of various alarm indicators in the spacecraft.
"Hello Strange Battleship, unfortunately, we have discovered that you have been tracking us, and we have given you the initiative to tell us the intention of tracking, but unfortunately, you have not said anything. So, we can only assume that your tracking is malicious.
"And just now, we've destroyed your curvature engines and navigation and positioning systems, and blocked all outgoing signals from your ship. Now, please give up your resistance at once, surrender to us, and open the hatch of your ship, and we will enter your ship and talk to you face to face.
"Remember, you have no other choice, we only give you five minutes to think about it. In five minutes, if we don't open the hatch as we requested, we'll destroy your ship and kill you all. ”
The voice broadcast from this information bridge appeared so abruptly in the wheelhouse of the enemy spacecraft.
A minute passed, and there was no movement from the enemy ship.
Enemy ships that have lost their navigation and positioning systems now do not even have the ability to lock on to attack targets. Even if the Kate Eagle spacecraft was around it, it would be helpless, not to mention that the Kate Eagle was still in a state of stealth.
Another two minutes passed, and the enemy ship still did not move, did not seek peace, did not flee, did not launch any kind of attack, just stood there silently, motionless.
Five minutes had passed, and the enemy ship still hadn't sent any signal that could be parsed by the information bridge.
"Oh...... Did you not understand me? Advanced civilizations have long had no problem communicating with each other, and every time Kobashi sends a broadcast message to an unfamiliar spaceship, in order to speed up the other party's understanding of what he is saying, he will attach a language dictionary, which is also a regular practice for advanced civilizations in the universe. What's going on? Cheng Shi muttered in his heart.
"Master, do you want to destroy the target ship?" The sound of the information bridge sounded in the cab.
Cheng Shi thought for a moment, and then asked, "Xiaoqiao, is it possible that this spaceship has carried out the self-detonation procedure?" ”
Cheng Shi's words fell, and everyone in the spaceship looked at him in surprise, because they all clearly saw that the enemy warship had been parked there, and there was no way to talk about self-detonation.
However, the information bridge obviously understood what Cheng Shi meant: "There is such a possibility, the ship's information interference with it may hinder the implementation of its self-detonation procedures." But the intelligent beings who piloted this spaceship couldn't do nothing after realizing that the spacecraft hadn't completed its self-detonation, right? ”
Except for Cheng Shi on the Kate Eagle, the others in the Kate Eagle heard the words of the information bridge, and they first had an epiphany, but then fell into new doubts.
"In the wars that our giants have experienced before, there have been cases where intelligent beings and ships have exploded together, and those races are so stubborn that they would rather die than be captured, even if the enemy only captures their corpses." Oldman shook his head and sighed.
"It's disgusting to plant a bomb on yourself that can be detonated at any time." Yang Yang said with disgust.
"If you blow yourself up and the spaceship doesn't, is this really the case?" Cheng Shi thought secretly.
"Little Bridge, go to that ship. Unleash my Warden's Blade, and I'll go and slice through the hatch of that ship. Cheng Shi thought and said.
After receiving Cheng Shi's order, the Kate Eagle immediately canceled its hiding, and soon came to the top of the enemy spaceship.
The other friends in the spaceship were naturally unwilling to let Cheng Shi go on an adventure alone, so they put on life jackets and followed Cheng Shi to the hull of the enemy spaceship.
Cheng Shi wielded the Warden's Blade and cut a hole in the hatch of the ship with three strikes and five divisions, and Oldman reached into the gap and ripped the hatch off with a little force. Then, a group of seven people rushed into the interior of the ship.
Cheng Shi can resist attacks for a long time with his own energy shield, so he walks at the front of the team with the shield transformed from the information bridge, while Oldman is in charge of the rear of the hall.
A few people walked in a narrow corridor, and Cheng Shi saw that the interior of this spaceship had significant traces of a man-made spaceship, which was obviously different from the previous elf spaceship. The biggest difference is that the interior of this spaceship does not have any magic rune arrays suspended, and it looks very industrial, as if the people who designed this spaceship have never considered its comfort and aesthetics, and only focus on practicality.
Ten minutes later, guided by various signs, several people quickly arrived at the wheelhouse of the ship, and did not encounter any obstacles along the way, nor did they see any intelligent creatures. However, there were a few times when electric sparks suddenly appeared around while walking, but it was obvious that the Kate Eagle had just hit it with precision, which indirectly damaged many of its internal electronic components.
"Damn, did you really blow yourself up?"
Cheng Shi couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the corpses of more than a dozen humanoid creatures lying in the wheelhouse of this spaceship.
However, what made the group a little curious was that these dozen people were all wearing the same uniforms. It's not entirely accurate to say it's a uniform, looking at the milky white material with a metallic texture, it should be said that the armor is more suitable, and it is fully covered from head to toe, which looks very sci-fi.
"Why do you wear armor inside the ship? Isn't it uncomfortable? Could it be that they have just conducted a landing warfare exercise and have not had time to take it off? It wasn't right, we waited there for days before they followed us. They should have been in space for a few days, too, but why did they keep wearing armor that looked so heavy? Cheng Shi thought silently.
"Big one, take off their helmets and see what they look like." Cheng Shi looked at Oldman and said.
When the giant heard this, he immediately crouched down to inspect the helmet of an intelligent creature, and he wanted to remove it normally without brute force.
But after studying for a long time, he couldn't find a normal way to open the helmet, and just when he wanted to tear it off with brute force, he heard the sound of the helmet buckle loosening, which was the information bridge cracking the lock of the armor, and then Oldman easily removed the helmet.
Cheng Shi saw that the intelligent creature whose helmet had been torn off had a face similar to that of the human on earth, it was a man with a European face about forty years old, with blood marks on the corners of his mouth, but his face still had a hint of ruddy, apparently not long after his death.
"Ahh
Just as everyone was looking at the corpse of this intelligent creature, Yang Yang casually opened the helmet of another corpse, and then let out an exclamation.
"Look, landlord." After Yang Yang was surprised, she got up and pointed to the corpse of the intelligent creature whose helmet she had opened, and turned her head to shout.
Several people immediately came to Yangyang's side when they heard the sound.
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other, because the face of the intelligent creature they saw who had his helmet opened by Yang Yang was exactly the same as the one who had just been opened by Oldman.
"Open everyone's helmets." Cheng Shi said with a shocked expression.
At this time, a terrifying guess had already surfaced in Cheng Shi's mind, and he very much didn't want his guess to be confirmed after a few minutes.
Yang Yang and Oldman received Cheng Shi's order, and quickly took off the helmets of the remaining dozen or so intelligent creatures.
Cheng Shi's guess was confirmed, and the faces of these dozen or so people were all exactly the same.
"No wonder you're always wearing armor and helmets, it turns out that you're all replicants." Cheng Shi thought in shock.
Although the truth was unacceptable to everyone present for a while, the truth is the truth, and the facts are in front of us and cannot be questioned.
Karel and the Grenor Group jointly build a clone army, and the genetic blueprint of the clone turns out to be Earth humans.
This fact was not Cheng Shi's presumptuous conclusion after seeing the appearance of those intelligent creatures. Rather, after the information bridge scanning analysis, it was found that the genetic similarity between these people and human beings on the earth was as high as 93%, and there were obvious traces of genetic modification.
Cheng Shi was a little unacceptable for a while, he didn't expect Karel to be so crazy.
"Xiaoqiao, you should be able to control this ship in a normal way, right?" Cheng Shi calmed down and asked.
"No problem, this ship has just cracked all of its command sets, and if nothing else, we can pilot this ship into their space carrier." The ship model said confidently, "In addition, by analyzing the self-detonation program of this spaceship, this ship found that this self-detonation program was not triggered manually, but when the curvature engine and navigation equipment of the spacecraft were completely damaged, the self-detonation program would be automatically activated. ”
"I see! After the spaceship lost its ability to travel at high speeds, in order to prevent the surviving crew members from blowing itself up, they were killed simultaneously. You're ruthless. Cheng Shi thought secretly in his heart.
