Chapter 127: Nirvana
After that, there were no more accidents, and three days later, a boatload of people successfully landed on the earth-like planet that was later named "Nirvana"; The scanning work during the orbit of the low orbit confirmed that Nirvana has a thick atmosphere similar to that of the Holy Capital Earth, and also has several areas of water, and the surface of the planet presents the environmental characteristics of a primitive ecological planet, with layers of forests and greenery.

With the sharp roar of the anti-gravity engine, the lifeship, designed to land on the planet's surface, slowly landed on the top of a hillock about 100 meters above the surrounding ground. Instruments showed that the air composition outside the ship contained about 6% oxygen and 23% nitrogen, and the other gas components were confirmed to not cause much damage to the human body, and the crew could land directly.
What needs to be explained here is that the rapid development and in-depth research of human transformation technology have also led to the research on the strengthening of the physique of ordinary people. The simplified version of the human body modification technique will hardly cause any changes to the physical appearance of the recipient, but the physique can be fully strengthened; After trial and error to ensure safety and reliability, the royal family issued a popularization order.
From then on, all ordinary human beings involved in interstellar voyages, transportation, and colonization must undergo "space adaptation enhancement" in the same way that they were vaccinated in ancient Earth. As a result of this policy, ordinary astronauts who have undergone enhanced transformation are able to adapt well to the wide variety of radiation in the space environment, and can basically move freely in the complex and changeable natural environment of extraterrestrial planets.
The benefits of this progress are simply too many, the most obvious being that the habitable planet is being transformed at a much faster rate; In the past, the transformation of a habitable planet was, to put it bluntly, to recreate another Earth, which was a very troublesome process. The cycle of requirements is very long, the resources that need to be invested are also very high, and the transformation of the first habitable planets of the colonial fleet that flew to distant places basically took hundreds of years to succeed.
Moreover, in the first hundred years, all important key positions could only be filled by transhuman soldiers. Until it is certain that this planet can allow ordinary people to live safely before leaving, it is really a waste to put these highest-end combat power in this place. But the physique of the native Earth humans is too poor, and the commanders of the colonial fleet have nothing to do.
Now, most planets with basic biospheres and ecosystems are no longer a problem for these enhanced astronauts, and the transhuman warriors can focus on the earliest stages of planetary development, and the astronauts will take over the construction work, and the colonization process can be greatly accelerated......
The crew members who arrived at Nirvana with the old captain had received this kind of reinforcement, so the air on the planet's surface, which was dominated by sulfur dioxide and nitrogen, was not a problem for them at all, with a maximum temperature of 60 degrees Celsius during the day and a minimum of -25 degrees Celsius at night.
Just as the crew rushed out of the hatch to get a feel for all that the planet had to offer. The old captain who followed them just walked out slowly, frowning and surveying everything around him.
Unlike the crew members who are excited about the aftermath of the catastrophe and the discovery of a new habitable planet, the old captain Jervis feels a deep sense of worry, he has experienced too many unexpected dangers in his more than 30 years of astronautical career, but the dangers of this journey are still beyond the limits of his imagination.
The previous voyage in this death star area can be described as a life and death, but deep down in his heart, he is actually determined, after all, the lifeship equipped by the St. Brandant was obtained from military channels at a great cost, and according to the military major general, it can almost cope with the extreme environment around neutron stars and black holes. In addition, both the cargo ship and the cargo loaded on board are overly insured. The worst result is nothing but loss of money, as long as people are alive, everything has a chance.
But after actually landing on this planet, he felt that everything felt more than expected.
Before landing, the lifeship first made a full scan around the planet and found a few parts of water on the planet's surface. There are some relatively low plants scattered around the water, and no signs of animals have been found. What caught Captain Jervis's attention was another matter, according to a depth scan. At a depth of about three meters below the surface, there are a very large number of holes, which vary in size, but most of them have some shadows.
The scanner of the lifeguard is not powerful enough. It has only been confirmed that these shadows are living beings, and most of them are in a strange dormant state.
That's what the old captain cared about the most. The habitable planets in Gemini that should never theoretically exist, the natural environment that can be directly landed, and the unusually simple surface biosphere...... What worries him the most in all these cases is that these organisms cannot be fully identified.
The group of people under his command are just cargo ship crews who have received ordinary reinforcements, and the firepower on the lifeship is only infantry-level light weapons, although he himself is a retired third-level reformer, but he has almost no chance to get hands on people in his many years of business career, and he is not optimistic if he encounters some tricky indigenous beasts.
Jervis shook his head vigorously to put aside the heavy thoughts that were coming to him for the time being, and walked to keep up with the rest of the crew, no matter what, after all, the group had successfully landed, and it was clearly defined in the Imperial Space Development Law that the first people who successfully landed on an unexplored planet and established a frontier outpost enjoyed the right to name the planet and the right to profit from it for a hundred years.
Although the Habitable Planet is located in a sector that is deadly and its own situation is confusing, the potential benefits of discovering and owning a new habitable planet are still making his heart beat faster and faster......
What happened later was dictated by a few crew members who had escaped by chance.
On the day they landed, Captain Jervis announced to the crew in the ground shelter that had taken several hours to set up that he had decided to name the planet "Nirvana" to commemorate the life and death of all the brothers and congratulate all the brothers on their successful landing and survival. He generously promised that after the initial development and establishment of an outpost, and then contact the rescue force to return to the human world, all the benefits obtained will be shared with everyone!!
The atmosphere came to a head when someone found a few crates of whiskey in the lifeship's food warehouse...... (To be continued.) )
