Chapter 593: Asteroid Belt

It's been a week since Shiki and Natsu were lost in the universe, during which time they have made several space jumps and repairs, but no trace of humanity has been found.

This is not a strange thing, in the vast universe without specific coordinates, it is possible to fly for hundreds of years without seeing people, even with space jumping technology. So from the very beginning they were prepared for the worst.

In order to recharge each space jump, they have to go in the direction of the star, and then make the next jump after replenishing the energy, because it is difficult to guarantee that they will not enter the area far away from the star, and then they will have to drift without supplies. In addition, entering the galaxy can also increase the chance of encountering others.

After once again ending the space jump, they appeared inside a galaxy.

It is a five-planet galaxy with a star similar to the Sun, a star in the prime of life, and intense energy radiates out to provide ample heat for the planet.

At this time, it seems that the sunspots are active, and the violent solar wind has caused extremely strong electromagnetic interference, and even the observation of the four seasons has been affected.

However, it was only an observation, and the progress of the four seasons and Xia Xu was not hindered, and they went all the way deep into the interior of the galaxy, and on the way they saw extremely cold planets completely covered in ice and snow, as well as gas planets with extremely large bodies and low density.

When approaching the third planet, they discovered an asteroid belt, countless large and small asteroids around the star, the large ones are tens of hundreds of kilometers, and the small ones are only a few tens of meters, they are like a huge hula hoop around the star.

Entering the asteroid belt, the density of these asteroids will have a certain impact on large ship groups, and it is common to send people to clean them up in advance during the voyage. But it's quite wide for two people, and their speed hasn't even slowed down.

Flying, flying, the four seasons are suddenly attracted by the scenery that flashes by.

"Did you find anything?"

"Hmm. Let's go over and see. ”

The two turned around and flew towards a rather large asteroid. Landing on the surface of an irregularly shaped asteroid, soon they found something out of the ordinary.

"This artificial trace."

Looking at a huge piece of metal, Xia Xu said.

"Does my sister think the same way?"

It is not uncommon for planets to contain metal, but the one in front of me has obvious traces of artificial processing, even if it is already tattered and unshaped.

"This seems to be an armor plate?"

Shiji and Xia Xu glanced at each other, and they could find traces of artificiality, which means that someone may have been here.

Immediately, they began to search for the neighborhood. The search lasted more than an hour, and they did find something.

It was in a very dense area of asteroids, mixed with countless asteroids, so many that they didn't even need to be carefully distinguished.

It was the wreckage of the battlefield, the remnants of countless warships and battle armor after an unimaginably tragic battle.

"These weapons are all in the style of the Jetrats."

Xia Xu made a judgment through some fairly well-preserved wreckage.

"Judging from the scale, this should be the ancient battlefield of Jetrati."

In the past, the ancestors of humans and the Jetrati people, the "Proto (primitive) civilization", created a great civilization, but then they were divided internally. For the sake of war, the Jetrati were created to fight, and they were not satisfied with this, they also wanted to create more powerful weapons. The result is an unknown alien creature. Named the "Proto Demon", the creature feeds on souls and is capable of controlling other creatures. In order to fight against the Proto Demon and the people under its control (the Inspector Army), the restriction that the Jetratians could not attack the Proto civilization was also unlocked, and in the end of the war, the Proto Demon fell into a deep sleep due to lack of soul, and the Proto civilization was not spared from perishing. All that remains is the Jetratians and the Inspector who have been at war in this galaxy for tens of thousands of years.

The battlefield in front of us is the traces left by the war of tens of thousands of years ago, and there is no culture, only the scars left by violence and killing.

For the current humans and the Jetrati people, this is a distant past, but these traces have not disappeared, and the civilization that spread across the galaxy back then. As a result, this war has also spread to every corner of the galaxy, covering an area beyond what humans have explored now.

"Ahh I see. ”

Looking at this battlefield, Xia Xu suddenly thought of something.

"What did my sister find?"

"This asteroid belt may not have formed naturally."

"You mean ......"

"There used to be a planet here, but it was destroyed in the war, and it turned out to be what it is now."

"It's possible."

Four Seasons felt that what Xia Xu said was not unreasonable, and in terms of ability, the fleet of the Jetrati people could do it.

"Anyway, there may be something in there that works."

Natsuo took Shiki's hand and flew towards the remains of the battleship.

Although it is said that it has taken tens of thousands of years, the durability of the weapons and equipment used by the Jetrati people is quite high. Perhaps it fully embodies the characteristics of the fighting race. It looks silly and black on the outside, but it is very strong and durable. In fact, there have been instances of weapons tens of thousands of years ago that could still be used immediately, and the superiority of the equipment of the Jetratians is something they can be proud of.

They flew into a fairly well-preserved battleship, two thousand meters long, in the form of a shuttle. This is the main battleship of the old Jetrati fleet, and at the same time it is still in service today, and it is a very good kind of battleship.

Entering through a breach that was more than thirty meters long enough for Valkyrie to easily enter, they were greeted by a Gnaku-like room in which two bird's legs protruded from beneath an egg-shaped battle armor, the iconic "Regult" of Jetrati. There are many Regults, and in their vicinity there are quite a few Jetrati who have long since been mummified in the vacuum. I am afraid that they were killed in the attack on the battleship before they could reach the battlefield.

Passing by these remains from 10,000 years ago, they flew towards the command room. Because the specifications of this kind of battleship are uniform, and both Shiki and Xia Xu have learned about its internal structure, it didn't take long to find it.

They don't care if the ship's power weapons and the like can still be used, the only thing they care about is whether the communication equipment is in good condition, which is the key to whether they can get in touch with other people. (To be continued.) )
