Above the Moon.

"This forest is too weird, isn't it? These glowing leaves were all formed by the concentration of pure energy. ”

"The energy in these leaves contains a lot of light radiation and thermal radiation, but the most curious thing is how these energies achieve this degree of aggregation and constriction."

At this moment, with the assistance of the gilded battle kai, a soldier was standing on a huge tree (with roots and tendrils) caressing the pure white glowing leaves in front of him, which were larger than his own size.

The soldier's whole body and head were covered in black streamlined armor, and he was muttering curiously as he watched the data analysis map that appeared on the retina.

This time, the Xiangyun starship put a total of 500 Star Warfighters of the Dragon Empire here.

And the purpose of these soldiers is to carefully explore this strange forest.

Looking at the lush, tall and unknown forest in front of them, many soldiers were actually constantly looking at the beautiful scenery in front of them in addition to collecting various data.

"It's really incredible, this forest covers an area of more than half a million square kilometers on this small planet, and if all the energy contained in the leaves of this forest is combined, it is estimated that it will not be lower than the small artificial sun in those ecosystems created by our empire."

"And I don't know if you've noticed, there seems to be a lot of huge intertwined root systems under these forests, and the root systems of this forest seem to be all linked together."

Through exploration, some soldiers discovered the roots of the branch trees hidden under the moon, and at the same time communicated to their nearby companions.

"Really."

When the soldiers began to explore the surface one after another, they immediately found countless branches of tree roots lying under the shallow rock layers of the moon.

"Something's wrong, though, the roots of this forest are too big, right? And these roots still seem to lie horizontally in the ground, which is fundamentally different from traditional plant roots. ”

"The most important thing is that the root system under this forest has no other small root system rooted in the ground, as if all their energy comes from the huge root system, but where does the energy of these huge root systems come from? What are the nutrients they need to grow? ”

But as soon as the soldier's words fell, he was immediately humane:

"It's light and heat!"

At this time, a soldier in close-fitting black armor was hovering on top of a branch of roots, monitoring the situation around the top.

"According to the analysis, the energy absorbed by these tree roots comes from the light and heat radiation conducted by the star."

"Good fellows! This mutated forest can still absorb the radiation of electromagnetic waves and various cosmic rays? ”

"Just kidding, huh? Is this still a plant? This can simply be compared to the Star Beast. ”

"Nope! It's not comparable to the Star Beast, and maybe this forest is an extension of the Star Beast. ”

"Although in our traditional concept, star beasts are mainly used to absorb dark energy as the main means of growth, but this is not to say that star beasts can also absorb light energy and heat energy."

"Let's think about it, how many star beasts have we seen in the Dragon Empire? The appearance and shape of the star beast are all weird, in short, everyone be careful, maybe we are coming to the body of a star beast, not necessarily. ”

At this moment, all the five hundred soldiers who landed in various parts of the 'forest' looked on alert.

Most of the soldiers even took out all the electromagnetic rifles they were carrying behind their backs, which were nearly three meters long, and clenched them in their hands.

This group of Star Warfighters of the Dragon Empire was about two meters three tall after being covered with armor at this time, and the three-meter-long electromagnetic rifle on their backs was particularly conspicuous.

Electromagnetic rifle, which is a miniaturized weapon of electromagnetic cannon, in space due to the lack of gravity and because the recoil of the electromagnetic rifle is slightly equal to nothing, so in the interstellar empire, electromagnetic weapons and laser weapons are the most important equipment.

Regarding the situation of these five hundred star warriors, the Xiangyun starship and the flagship are paying close attention.

Five hundred soldiers are staring at the five hundred large and small cuts, and countless people are staring at them, in short, the pressure on these star warriors is not small.

"Can the companion moon of such a planet have star beasts? Could it be that our guess is wrong, the star beast larvae exist on this satellite? ”

"If that's the case, maybe our three starships really have a way to deal with such a small hatchling."

"However, there is no guarantee that there will be no star beasts on the opposite planet, in short, you need to be careful."

On the Xiangyun sub-ship, Xia Ziyao thought of this, and immediately ordered the starship to start moving away from the moon and stars.

It wasn't until the starship's position was raised to nearly five hundred kilometers away from the lunar forest that Xia Ziyao felt a little more at ease, and at the same time, Xia Ziyao gave an order to the space fighter unit on the starship.

"Order, the first air-to-air formation of space fighters will set sail to cover and protect the ground formation."

"Yes!"

After Xia Ziyao gave the order, on the huge starship with a length of nearly 250 kilometers in a cuboid shape, the left side of it immediately pulled the gate.

The huge valves continued to open in batches, and at the same time, space fighters nearly 50 meters long rushed out one after another.

The first air-to-air formation has a total of 300 space fighters.

In Xia Ziyao's opinion, this is enough for the Star Warfighters in the cruising cover forest.

And after these space fighters began to wander over the forest, the Star Warriors below suddenly felt a little more confident in their hearts.

At the same time, while scanning the forest, some soldiers began to try to take it a step further, in order to confirm that the forest was indeed a derivative of the Star Beast.

Small laser rays appeared on the wrists of some soldiers' machine armor, and the laser rays were cut at the roots of He Shu's branches.

Others floated into the air with electromagnetic rifles and stood upright into the ground, firing at the point where the roots of the trees were present.

There was no sound, nothing but dust.

"Cutting doesn't move? And the energy generated by the laser is still absorbed by this branch? A soldier stood on a tree branch, staring blankly at the laser-cut place.

And some soldiers in the sky were also stunned for a moment when they watched the damage of the electromagnetic rifle shown by the scan showing that there was not even a trace left on the roots of the tree.

"Are you kidding?"

"This is definitely not something that ordinary mutant plants can say, it is 100% certain that this is an extension of the Star Beast."

At this moment, the captain of the Star Warrior Formation directly gave the order in a hurry, and then the five hundred Star Warriors began to retreat towards the space outside the forest without hesitation.

Outside of space, 300 space fighters opened their cabins and took them all in their respective cockpits.

"Didn't fight back?"

All the people who paid attention to this scene looked at the strange forest and did not appear to pursue, still looking quiet, and took a breath and at the same time were a little puzzled.

"This unknown star beast is sleeping too dead?" Countless people speculated.

Xia Ziyao, who was on the Xiangyun ship, was also a little undecided at this time.

"Young master, what are we going to do next? If you want to confirm the temptation again, let me use the Xiangyun to attack this satellite directly with the main gun. ”

"Nope."

Xia Shangming in the picture frowned.

"Now we're almost 100% sure that there are star beasts on this moon, and I'm sending a message to my father."

"However, according to the process, it will take about ten dragon hours for the Empire's support to come here at the earliest, and before that, our first priority is to determine whether there are star beasts in that aqua blue planet."

"Although I don't know why the star beast on this satellite didn't appear, it also gave us a chance."

"Ziyao, you go to the planet first, if there are no star beasts on that planet, we will entertain the young unknown star beasts on this moon."

Xia Shangming's analysis.

"yes, okay."

Xia Ziyao nodded, he agreed with Xia Shangming's words, although he just said that he wanted to use the main cannon, but that was just an immature suggestion.

After all, confirming whether there are star beasts on the planet is the main premise at present.

After receiving the order, Xia Ziyao didn't continue to waste time, and directly ordered the Xiangyun to sail to the side where the water blue star was.

And while the Xiangyun was driving, it also began to continuously recover the three hundred space fighters just now.

However, just as the Xiangyun was sailing in the direction of Shui Lanxing, the flagship and another sub-ship, which were more than 30 million kilometers away from the rear, suddenly rose sharply at this time.

In the flagship command room, the signal soldier reported to Xia Shangming on the flagship command platform through his personal terminal:

"Report the young master! Our signal to the home planet failed. ”

"Failure? Procedural issues? Xia Shangming didn't hold him accountable, just frowned and asked gently.

"I... We didn't know it, but we've tried dozens of times, but the system keeps showing failure. The communications soldier was also confused and innocent.

However, when the signal soldier reported the incident, hundreds of controllers in the huge control center under the command station also discovered that the sub-control systems under their respective management were abnormal to varying degrees.

At this time, there was an incomparably large amount of electromagnetic interference near the flagship, and they had completely lost contact with the two subships at one moment.

In the entire command room, the original bright starry sky screen at this time also turned into countless snowflake codes in an instant.

Everyone was stunned, and at the same time stunned.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

Without waiting for everyone's reaction, the next moment, a huge vibration and sound suddenly came from the entire flagship.

"WARNING!! Warn!!! The ship is under an unknown attack, and adopts a self-defense mechanism to deploy an energy shield. ”

"WARNING!! Warn!!! The ship is under an unknown attack, and adopts a self-defense mechanism to deploy an energy shield. ”

“......。”

In an instant, a huge barrier covering the entire ship with ripples like water suddenly rose on the flagship, which was nearly 500 kilometers long.
