Chapter 233: Floating Star Castle [Fourth Watch]
The spaceport is like a patchwork of massive metal scaffolding, mottled and dilapidated. www.biquge.info If it weren't for the small buildings like photosynthetic energy panels and space stations on the top, as well as the spaceships connected to some ports, you would hardly be able to associate it with a spaceport, but it would be more like a massive metal ruin, exuding the smell of desolation and death.
Zhang Xiaowang and Panda Spirit quickly caught up with the speed of the spaceport, and kept parallel to it, in this state, they could better observe the spaceport, and soon they found some shocking existences.
The spaceport seems to have just been fired by tens of thousands of cannons, and is riddled with mottled bullet holes and dented craters. Rows and rows of photosynthetic concentrating panels have been beaten into sieves, and nine out of ten spatial buildings are as dilapidated as shacks in slums. There are also those docked spaceships, the fuselage is also mostly full of holes, and very few are intact.
The Divine Ship slowly descended towards an empty airspace dock, and to the surprise of the harbor's ship docking anchor sticking out. It seems that although this spaceport looks dilapidated, some of its functions are still functioning normally.
Zhang Xiaowang and Panda Jing turned on the space mecha mode of the terminal, and after the spacecraft was fixed by the anchor, the two opened the anchor hatch and boarded the spaceport.
The passage of this anchor pier is also full of holes, like the roof of those overpasses that have fallen into disrepair. The two of them turned on a little engine power to help them walk, and walked forward holding on to the walls on both sides.
In the midst of it, looking out through the broken part of the passage wall, Zhang Xiaowang felt the grandeur of this spaceport. This spaceport is the size of six or seven football fields, and there are various space buildings on it, and against the backdrop of the vast universe, it is like a space town.
While admiring the space wonder, he walked slowly, but a humanoid object fell through a hole above the passage.
Zhang Xiaowang was startled by this sudden change, and subconsciously kicked over, the humanoid object was kicked squarely, suspended in the passage in the air, and spun and rolled out, and then the figure suddenly stopped, and began to spin in place again.
Zhang Xiaowang only had time to take a closer look at it at this time, it was the corpse of a seven-star man, the safety rope around his waist was still tied to the safety buckle on the wall of the passage, but the space suit on his body was already tattered, and the helmet was nowhere to be found, obviously he didn't know how long he had been dead.
The two of them slowly approached the past, but found that the face of this seven-star man was a little strange, between the seven-star and those plague people, his face was wrinkled, but it had not completely evolved into a plague man.
Zhang Xiaowang's heart sank, this is a vast space, shouldn't it be the most direct embodiment of the cosmic order? How did this alien infectious substance survive and complete the infection under the direct suppression of the cosmic order?
Is this seven-star human, who has only completed half of the mutation, because his own death caused the mutation to stop, or is the alien infectious material only half completed and eliminated by the cosmic order?
With this trace of confusion, he continued to move forward, and found several corpses of the Seven Star People one after another. Zhang Xiaowang found that not all corpses showed signs of mutation. Moreover, there seems to be a law between mutation and non-mutation, where there are wounds on the body of the torn clothes, there are more or less signs of mutation; Most of those who are well-dressed have not mutated.
Even if some of the corpses have slight skin folds, you can't tell if it's a natural phenomenon of space death or a mutation, after all, they have all turned into dried corpses......
In this boundless space, the boundaries of time and space became blurred, and I don't know how long it took to walk, a large space building appeared in front of Zhang Xiaowang and Panda Spirit, and from those circular panoramic windows, this seemed to be the command center of the spaceport.
Zhang Xiaowang and Panda Jing glanced at each other, and the two of them accelerated their speed at the same time.
The large building was also not spared the fate of being bombarded by a meteor shower, with three floor-to-ceiling windows on one side all shattered, and numerous dense pits in the hard metal faΓ§ade.
It's good that way, but it saves you from breaking in. Zhang Xiaowang and Panda Spirit climbed in through a shattered panoramic window, which was empty, but the lights of various devices were still flashing, indicating that the badly damaged spaceport was still functional, or, to put it more conservatively, at least partially retained.
Zhang Xiaowang stared at the operating equipment for a while, decisively admitted the fact that he was still illiterate, and released the secretary machine: "Check it and see if there is any useful information." β
The secretary stepped forward to connect to the port to search for information, and was busy for a while: "Master, part of the database has been smashed, and the rest is some entry and exit information, which is of little value." β
The panda spirit frowned: "This is all smashed like this, can we go to the warlord Samsung?" It's the hardest hit area, and there may be nothing left. β
"Go, I don't believe that the spacebase over there is also like a spaceport here, with a bunch of scaffolding to mess around. Even if those space battleships don't have energy shields, at least a few fist-sized meteors can still withstand it. β
The two of them then teleported back into the artifact ship, and a ripple rippled through space, disappearing into the ruined spaceport.
If you judge only from the aesthetics of the earthlings, Planet 4 is undoubtedly an evil place, at least 90% of the surface of the entire planet is black and brown, and the remaining 10% is the artificial city of the Seven Star people. Since there is no atmosphere, even in satellite orbit, some details of the man-made city can be clearly seen, which is a miracle of civilization.
It was a six-story cylindrical city, the largest on the ground floor, and then shrunk down to resemble a circular pyramid when viewed from space.
Parallel to Zhang Xiaowang and them in the orbit of Planet 4 are huge metal boxes. How huge is it, the sixty-five-meter-long artifact spaceship looks like a dragonfly lying on a big truck in front of it. The metal box flanked two pairs of vortex engines, and four other pairs of engines of unknown technology.
There are more than a dozen hatches of different sizes at both ends, and although they have been smashed by meteors, they can still be reminded of its former glory - various types of fighters and ships with different purposes are bustling here.
But it was a thing of yesterday, and now it's lifeless, like a steel beast that has lost its life.
There are hundreds of such metal boxes, stretching far away, orbiting like an incomplete ring in the orbit of Planet 4's satellites.
This is where Warlord No. 4's strongest combat power lies - Floating Star Castle!
Pity...... These space overlords who once dominated the seven galaxies have been smashed like broken bellows by meteor showers.
"There are survivors!" The panda spirit's eyes widened suddenly, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to a star castle.
Zhang Xiaowang looked in the direction of his finger, and the tail of the star castle was emitting faint sparks, as if someone was welding and repairing the holes in those star castles.
