Lancer IV has a lot of work on the far track, including exploration, analysis, and decipherment.

Exploration does not need to be explained in detail, it is naturally the geological composition, climatic conditions, etc., which are related to the selection of the first landing site in the subsequent stage.

The analysis focused on the preliminary analysis of the ecosphere and the analysis of the composition of native species.

The target planet temporarily codenamed LaIV-X1 has a complete ecosystem, and there are two types of Lancer captains and crews that attract the most attention: dragons and humanoids.

Dragons are creatures that are mistaken for airplanes when they are still far away, and the one-decimeter-level high-definition images taken in long-range orbit can already recognize the eyes of large flying creatures, not to mention these monsters with an average wingspan and body length of more than ten meters.

The wingspan of the Earth's Cretaceous Aeolian pterosaurs can also exceed 11 meters, but it is a little less attractive compared to the LaIV-X1 dragons. These dragon analogies are smaller than the legendary dragon creatures, but they are six limbed creatures like the legends.

As we all know, whether it is mammals, birds, or reptiles on the earth, they are all four-limbed creatures, and the Aeolian Pterodactyl, as the largest flying creature in the history of the earth, has only four limbs. Dragons aren't the only six-limbed creatures on the planet, meaning there's a whole new evolutionary system, and their ancestors may be shrimp instead of fish!

The largest instance ever recorded was a black dragon that reflected the indigo-blue glow of the crew, voted on by the captain and named the "Black Queen" - it may not be black, but it was too dark to see closer.

The Black Queen has a body length of 22.6 meters and a wingspan of more than 18 meters. According to the angular analysis of the shadow after landing, it sits at a height of three floors, is an absolute giant, lives on a mountain about 1,500 meters above sea level on the 39th parallel, and seems to be able to take off only from the cliff, and has no supernatural abilities.

During the analysis, dragons and other hexapods, including four-armed snaketails, were grouped into newly established clades, but the associated phylogenetic tree had to be found on the ground over a long period of time and excavation.

Humanoids are the most popular outside of dragons, and it takes generations of organisms to use their upper limbs to liberate the skeletal form around the shoulder and transform it into a humanoid form suitable for using tools.

Three types of humanoids were found on LaIV-X1, and according to the names they received after voting, they were Ancient Elves, Basilisks, and Goblins in the Lancer's bio profile, and although they did not match 100% of the human impressions, these three names can also summarize the general characteristics.

Incidentally, the dwarf humanoids voted Goblins have the lowest intelligence of the three humanoid species, and most of them serve large creatures in groups, including dragons.

For example, the Black Queen has many caves next to its lair, and hundreds of goblins live, according to the geostationary satellites that have been released, goblins live on fruits and small animals, and at the same time will provide cleaning services for the Black Queen, helping to dry the remaining prey of the Black Queen into dried meat for storage, probably a head is too small or thoughtful, the Black Queen does not eat goblins, forming a kind of symbiotic relationship.

Both the snake demon and the ancient elves possess some degree of civilization characteristics.

The snake demon spends most of his time in the water and is temporarily unable to monitor the whole time, can use stone shells to make utensils, build altars on the ground, and occasionally gather at the altar site to slaughter prey, probably in the totem worship stage.

The civilization of the ancient elves is more advanced, and one of the tribes near 20 degrees south latitude already has metal tools and seems to have begun to cultivate them purposefully, and most of the other tribes have hunting and animal husbandry habits.

The decipherment part is to drop brick-sized intelligence balls around the ancient elves and snake demon tribes to collect voice information, and then formulate targeted communication strategies.

In short, civilization is relatively primitive, and even if there is xenophobia, it is only inter-tribal xenophobia and does not target races, and it is a planet that can be safely put into human beings.

The Lancers spent three months in a long-range orbit and gathered enough information to select the intended landing site and lower it to a synchronous orbit for the next step.

After entering the synchronous orbit, the Lancer colonization preparation program was officially launched, and the creation of people began, and the "Memory Filling System" sub-module of the Home System was activated.

…… This may not seem like a humane thing in ancient times, but it was an essential part of the colonization process, and no one could expect thousands of crew members to give birth to highly adaptable offspring in the new environmental system, and memory filling was to stabilize the clone's psychological state.

The clones' memory packs were screened and sealed before departure, and they were not randomly combined like AI, with 100,000 copies for men and women, and the last paragraph was to fill out the colonial agreement and enter the completely stationary cabin after training, so from their own point of view, they are also considered to be the crew of the lancers, but they belong to the landing department.

In addition to the clones, crew members who were eliminated due to psychological evaluation during the journey also entered this stage, and they became the first colonists along with the clones after their memories were corrected.

The clones and the crew cannot meet directly to avoid gangs, and in addition to the newly built load compartment before and after the orbit, the operation area can also use the original Group B living quarters. The original members of Group B and A are physically isolated, and unless the captain re-transmits power, there is no way to open up the channel by cracking and hard.

The clones "thaw" twenty people a day, and it is expected that the first landing will require a thousand drops.

By the time they were doing acclimatization, the captains and full members of the Lancers were already busy making new preparations for the landing.

The resources in the colony capsule (non-mounted) As various work is carried out, the construction of the mount module, the delivery of artificial satellites, satellite observation equipment, and the manufacture of clones, there is more and more surplus space, and after the colonization preparation process enters this step, the free space of the colony module is reused.

The crew rearranged the equipment stacked together in the colony module step by step through remote-controlled machinery, and established a logistics factory in the colony module, which will use the ingot-like resources in the colony module to create various equipment to provide additional support for subsequent ground operations.

In addition, the collection and collation of local aerodynamic data has also entered the substantive action stage. This stage is achieved by the delivery of micro-UAVs into the atmosphere by special satellites.

The principle is not complicated, but the effect is great.

The Lancer's aerospace aircraft uses the Earth Indicator Plus One, which can provide an additional 10% lift by adding expansion wings to cope with harsh environments, but the air buoyancy of the LaIV-X1 is slightly greater than that of the Earth, and the wingspan of the aircraft can be reduced to reduce air resistance.

With the completion of various complicated anomaly preparation procedures, it is finally Colonial Day.

The two planes were dropped into the atmosphere at the same time, and after 40 minutes of deceleration and flight, they landed at the designated position and lay on their stomachs.

…… Yes, the space plane lying in the nest was expected at all!

There are many requirements for the first landing site: a stable climate, proximity to rivers, distance from sea level that can be hit by storms, no large sedentary beasts within a radius of 50 km, six important materials (iron, copper, silver, tin, saltpeter, and oil can be found within a radius of 300 km) (it doesn't matter the scale, it is best to be open), and it is an ultra-flat area.

There are countless places that meet any two or even three requirements for a planet, but in the end, only two places can be found that meet all the conditions, but unfortunately there is an ancient elf aboriginal tribe in the other place, and there is no choice at all.

The biggest disadvantage of this landing site is that the "ultra-flat" cannot meet the standard, the landing gear of the aerospace aircraft cannot withstand the turbulence, and only one of the three simulated landings on the Lancer has an aerospace aircraft that does not lie down, so it can be regarded as a psychological preparation.

The next action is a bit like the Haimer E6 satellite that pioneered MR251 in the Second World.

The landing crew was divided into three groups, one wave was responsible for safety, one group was built to build temporary camps, and the rest were built to build temporary runways to artificially create ultra-flat terrain. The repaired space plane carried a lot of equipment down, and there were no creatures as powerful as the native zergs in the local area, and the process was very smooth.

When the temporary camp was built, he began to use the drop pod to deliver large equipment, and soon used the big guys to replace the landing gear of the aerospace aircraft and refill the fuel.

If the requirements are low enough, in fact, at the stage where the aerospace aircraft can be reused, the mission is completed. But human beings have been dreaming of interstellar colonization for thousands of years, how can they be satisfied with this.

Through the recovery of various raw materials through the aerospace plane, the delivery of new clones and equipment, in just two months, a small society spanning 100 kilometers and composed of three small towns was established.

What follows is more difficult.

The memories of cloning are preferred, but they cannot escape the inferiority of people, and as the most productive and powerful local group, some people are beginning to have new ideas.

What made Sunshine decide to abandon the First Colony was the event recorded as "LaIV-X1's First Slave Hunt".

Perhaps the original intention of these guys was just to obtain human "parts" for industrial society faster, but the emergence of slaves would collapse the already fragile system of equality before a complete political and legal system was established, followed by endless group contradictions, class divisions, and so on.

From this point of view, the crew on the Lancer IV has no actual contact with the captain, but the captain has a system of life and death, and the crew has not died after more than two hundred years, which is simply a miracle.

In the end, after group discussions and unanimous voting, Lieyang decided to change the colonization plan and carry out decentralized projection.

Decentralized delivery, a new member has appeared - the clone of the Ancient Elves.

This was followed by an extremely long period of renovation. It was so long that more than half of the crew members took the initiative to delete some of their memories on the lancers, forming a substantial crew change.

In about 60 years, a total of 36 communities have been established in various places, technical support has been obtained from the Solar System Human Consortium through communication, a cross-galaxy point-to-point hyperspace communication system has been built, and the design and manufacturing blueprint of the sixth generation of regulators has been obtained.

The Solar System Human Consortium is not having a good time, and around the time the Lancer IV arrives at LaIV-X1, Europa Base Europa declares independence, although it does not fought, and the relationship between humans and the Regulator is even more strained.

Without Europa, the resources that the Consortium could mobilize were reduced somewhat, and the Lancer V had barely been launched in previous years, and the Council itself felt that the Consortium would not survive the day VI was built.

"What a tragedy it is for humanity." When he said this, the sun was neither angry nor sad, and time had smoothed out the last bit of emotion he had ever felt as a living being.

Acting as an overseer, Lieyang didn't know if he would be able to make it to the Pacific Galaxy to establish a new union, so although he was a little worried, he still set out to upgrade the unpowered fifth-generation Overseer of the Lancer IV.

To be honest, the sixth generation of regulators is not very reliable in the eyes of Lieyang.

She adopts a new hierarchical intelligence system, the lower level is the equivalent of the fifth generation of supervisors of the intelligence in charge of life, industry, and military, and the only authority of the upper intelligence is to initialize the lower intelligence. The hidden danger is that once the high-level intelligence agrees with the deterioration of the underlying intelligence, its existence is meaningless, after all, the high-level intelligence is also an agent, and it may also deteriorate and forcibly distort the interpretation of the underlying provisions.

In short, in the worst-case scenario, the sun is not prepared to release the regulators in the Pacific system.

No one cares about the conflict between the various communities as the communities expand on LaIV-X1, anyway, the technical data needed to develop into the information society are available, and as long as there is enough time to develop the population, sooner or later the whole will enter the period of extraterrestrial exploration.

At Sun's command, the Lancer IV detached from X1's synchronous orbit and headed for the second colony target in the Pacific Galaxy, a desolate rocky planet orbiting approximately 1.5 AU from LaIV-X1.

The air pressure and magnetic field are relatively stable, and the rotation speed is appropriate, but the average temperature is ten degrees lower than X1, and the water in most areas exists as solid, there are no animals, and plants seem to have only moss. There is information on the transformation of Mars in Lancer IV, and the Mars of the year is much worse than the current X2, so it only takes time.

If this continues, Captain Sun will probably stay on the Lancer IV for the rest of his life, contributing to the dream of human colonization, and perhaps in countless years, there will be a statue of his god in a real or virtual corner for people to worship.
