Chapter Ninety-Nine: Aina's Persistence

In the blink of an eye, the time came to the next day, and a calm morning was spent peacefully, and just as Zhou Xin was about to go to dinner, there was another situation on the surface of the planet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"What? They began to assemble the fleet again? So fast? As soon as he heard the report of the Voyager, Zhou Xin was still a little unconvinced, and even the other people in the command cabin showed surprised expressions. After saying this, Zhou Xin decisively asked the Voyager to switch the screen to Songxing.

Of course, you can't go wrong with what the probe observes, and once again a large number of warships have appeared on the surface of the planet that appears in the shot. Almost exactly like yesterday, these warships are now assembling on the edge of two continents.

"Strange." Scanning the situation on the surface of the entire planet, Zhou Xin's face showed a puzzled expression, "There seems to be something wrong with the number of warships. ”

"It's a lot more than when they retreated yesterday." Dart apparently discovered this as well.

"Is it a reserve fleet?" Zhou Xin couldn't help but muttered to himself.

"I guess it's a reserve fleet." Dart continued.

This time, the fleets of both sides completed the assembly at a much faster pace. Just as the entire fleet was assembled and heading towards another continent, Atlas counted a little, and found that the number of warships on both sides was about the same as yesterday, and the total was only nearly twenty warships less than yesterday, and there was almost no difference in the size of the fleet.

"It looks like both sides have a lot of warships hidden." After listening to Atlas's report, Zhou Xin said casually.

"Actually, it seems more normal." Spred spoke, "Judging from the information we have obtained from the Ewen Empire, they have concentrated almost all their manpower and material resources on military production, and it would be strange to say that the two of them now only have the military strength that is superficially revealed. ”

The next plot is almost a copy of yesterday, half an hour after the fleet is assembled, the two sides meet near the equator, and the process of the battle does not need to be repeated. All in all, the battle began around two o'clock in the afternoon of the ship's time and lasted for nearly six hours, with each side dropping the wreckage of a dozen ships before retreating.

"Compared to yesterday, the losses of both sides are much less." Looking at the fleets that had barely shrunk on both sides, Zhou Xin spoke.

"Hmm." Dart nodded, "And, have you noticed that in the battle just now, the performance of the fleets on both sides was much more conservative? Although the tactics were basically the same as yesterday, they began to consciously protect the damaged battleship, which allowed many ships that would have been difficult to escape to survive. ”

"Could it be that they're starting to realize the preciousness of people?" Zhou Xin guessed.

"Perhaps."

"Atlas, is there a way to detect the communication between the warships in the battle just now?" Zhou Xin thought for a moment, and then asked.

"Nope." The little girl shook her head, "The level of secrecy of the communication between them is too high, and people can't crack it until they figure out the rules." ”

Since it was just a battle without any fancy, after chatting casually, Zhou Xin felt that there was nothing to continue discussing. Next, after instructing the Voyager to continue to keep an eye on the surface of the planet, Zhou Xin focused his attention on the things that he was most concerned about in the past two days. In the blink of an eye, the song star on the screen disappeared, and the screen switched to the medical room. This time, it wasn't Wren who appeared on the screen, but a medical robot.

"What about Wren?" Seeing that it was the communication received by the medical robot, Zhou Xin felt a little strange.

"He's being resuscitated right now and doesn't have time." The robot replied solemnly.

"What!?" Hearing its answer, Zhou Xin suddenly became nervous, "Who is he rescuing?" Is there something wrong with Aina? ”

Fortunately, the robot's answer made him breathe a sigh of relief, "No, it's that the seriously injured alien's infection symptoms have worsened, and he has already developed symptoms of high fever that does not go away, and Dr. Wren is trying to find a way to alleviate it." ”

"The disease progressed so fast?" Zhou Xin's brows furrowed, but since Ren had already mentioned it before, Zhou Xin was not particularly surprised. Then he continued to ask, "How is Aina's condition, and is there any continued experimentation today?" ”

"That alien girl woke up this morning." The robot replied, "At her insistence, Dr. Wren tried another drug on her. Not long after the injection, the girl had a serious adverse reaction, and a few minutes later, she fell into a coma. ”

"Comatose?" Zhou Xin became nervous again, "Then how is her situation now?" ”

"I woke up at noon, and the sequelae of the drug experiment were significantly alleviated. As soon as he woke up, he insisted that Dr. Wren continue his drug experiments, but Dr. Wren refused on the grounds that she was too weak to do so. The robot replied, "It seems that due to the residual reaction of the drug, the girl fell asleep again after only eating a little for lunch." ”

"Hmm." Zhou Xin nodded, and after thinking about it, he still felt a little uneasy, "Let me see Aina's current situation." ”

"Please wait, she's in the next room now."

Then, the screen begins to move, and the medical robot arrives at the door of the next room. However, after the door opened, Zhou Xin was suddenly stunned by the scene in front of him.

In the lens of the communicator, Zhou Xin saw that Aina was not sleeping at all as the medical robot just said, but half-lying on the hospital bed. Now she was holding a common syringe in one hand, and the needle of the syringe was stuck in the other arm, and the syringe contained half a tube of pale green liquid.

Seeing the medical robot appear at the door, the little girl's face showed a nervous expression, under Zhou Xin's nose, she quickly pushed the syringe, and injected all the remaining half tube of liquid into her body, because the speed of the injection was too fast, there was even an obvious bulge on her arm, and her face also showed an uncomfortable look.

"What are you doing?!" Seeing Aina's movements, Zhou Xin's hairs all over his body stood up, and he shouted loudly, and through the communicator, his voice reached the little girl's ears. At the same time, the robot ran to the side of the hospital bed as fast as it could, snatching the syringe from Aina's hand.

"Uncle Captain, don't blame Dr. Wren, it's my own decision, I'm going to save my fatherβ€”" After saying this, he collapsed on the hospital bed and fainted.

Just as Aina fainted, Wren happened to appear at the door, "What's going on?!" He was also very surprised to see the scene in front of him. Glancing at the cabinet next to the hospital bed, he also shouted, "Medical robot, what's going on, why are there only four bottles of medicine left?!" At this time, Zhou Xin noticed the direction that Wren was looking at, and there were eight small bottles neatly placed on the cabinet, three of which were already empty, one bottle still contained half of the liquid, and the remaining four bottles were full of pale green liquid.

The medical robot Gu Bo replied unfazedly: "According to your orders, the machine has been taking care of this alien creature, but just now the next door received a communication signal in the command module, and all this happened in the process of contacting the captain of the ship. ”

After doing it for a long time, the final reason was actually his own active contact, Zhou Xin suddenly felt deep self-blame, and he didn't care about blaming Ren for putting the medicine directly on the bedside, he hurriedly said: "Hurry up and check how Aina is now." ”

As soon as Zhou Xin spoke, Wren made a move, he walked to the side of the hospital bed in three steps and two steps, and then began to observe the various instruments beside the bed. While checking the little girl's physical condition, he blamed himself: "It's all my fault, she couldn't have touched those medicine bottles when she was in a coma before, so I didn't care, and I forgot about it when she woke up." Unexpectedly, she actually learned to inject by herself, and she also injected three full doses of medicine at one time. ”

"Okay, now is not the time to blame yourself, let's find out about Aina's current situation first." Zhou Xin said.

Then, the scene instantly fell silent, and Zhou Xin quietly watched Wren's movements on the screen with a concerned face. At this moment, Wren had a serious face, he observed the data of various instruments by the bedside back and forth, and from time to time he picked up one or two small instruments and checked them on the little girl's body. Nearly five minutes passed, and a puzzled look suddenly appeared on Wren's face.

Seeing the change in Wren's face, Zhou Xin asked eagerly, "How is the situation?" ”

"Uh-huh" Wren stopped what he was doing, hesitated for a moment, and then replied in a strange tone, "It's strange that the instrument didn't check for anything wrong with her body. Based on the above data, it seems that she is just- asleep? When it came to the conclusion, his tone was also very uncertain.

"Asleep?" Zhou Xin obviously didn't believe this conclusion, "How could it be that I just fell asleep, just now I saw Aina faint like this, is there something wrong with the instrument." ”

"It's impossible for all the instruments to fail." "I wonder if there's something going on in her body that we can't detect with our current medical devices." ”

"Atlas, you can also go check it out and see if you can find any anomalies." After listening to Wren's words, Zhou Xin commanded without thinking.

"People have been on the road for a long time, and now they are almost there."

As soon as her words fell, the figure of the special model of robot appeared on the screen. Atlas then walked over to the bedside, and she scanned the data displayed on the surrounding instruments as Wren did. It only took a dozen seconds for her to read all the data, and then the robot stretched out several mechanical arms and checked Aina's body. In a minute or so, she put the mechanical arm away, and then her breath became as strange as Wren's, "She is breathing long now, her heart rate is a little slow, but it is still within acceptable limits, and there is no painful expression on her face. Brother Captain, Aina really seems to be just asleep. ”

"No, or you can check it again." Zhou Xin said, "How can it be possible that the three bottles of medicine together do not show any symptoms. ”

"Well, let's check it out with Uncle Wren in detail." Atlas replied.

The rest of the examination was not so fast, they first took a little blood from Aina and sent it for analysis, and then pushed the bed from one room to another room with larger medical equipment. It seems that there is no way to complete the inspection without an hour or two.

Although it was already late at night in spaceship time, because of this kind of thing, Zhou Xin couldn't sleep at all. Seeing that the next checks could not be completed for a while, he asked Atlas to switch to the probes surveyed at the satellite base.

When the images of those probes appeared on the screen, Zhou Xin found that it was just the time to rest in the base at this time, and those probes had already flown out of their respective hiding places and began to carry out a detailed investigation of the base. In one of the frames, Atlas has begun to map the base based on reports from the probe. However, the topographic map at this time is still very incomplete, all that can be seen is a few corridors and a few rooms, most of the rooms except for the location of the door is clearly marked, there is only a dark shadow inside, it seems that the probe has not yet entered to investigate. In addition, at the end of one of the corridors, Atlas has also marked the location of a suspected elevator, and it seems that this base may have more than one floor, but the probe is only active on this level and has not yet begun to investigate other places.

Excluding the probes who were still wandering around the corridors, looking for targets worth investigating, Zhou Xin focused his attention on the few scenes in the room. The topographic map of the base on the side also showed the location of the current probe, and Zhou Xin saw that the rooms in the picture seemed to be connected. Not only are they connected, but at first glance, you will find that the scenes that can be seen in these rooms are basically similar, and the only thing that can be seen in each room is piles of clutter piled up randomly, which look no different from garbage heaps.

After getting close to the piles of debris, Zhou Xin found that there were everything in the pile, from unknown equipment the size of a car to a screw, and even in the corner Zhou Xin saw an artificial satellite that was only half left.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Xin suddenly felt a little surprised, "What are these rooms for, it can't really be a garbage heap......
