Chapter 278: Abandoned Starport
"Captains, please note that the formation is about to enter the recessed space, please prepare all captains......"
On the 17th day of September in the third year of the ephemeris, after many explorations and preparations, the generation spaceship formation of the Golden Crow Fleet finally smoothly passed through the Copos curved neck flask and entered this depression space that was only three-quarters the size of the solar system. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThrough exploration, Chen Peilin and they already know that the concave space is a small universe that has failed to be divided. The Dogon Empire conducted experiments on the construction of a small universe here, but due to technical reasons, it could not be completely separated from the large universe, so such a strange concave space was formed.
Although it is not a complete small universe, its technological level has also reached the level of the early civilization of the eighth level. Of course, it is only the scientific and technological content contained in this small universe itself, and it is not so easy for a civilization to fully step into an eighth-level civilization with both feet.
The space fluctuated, and a huge formation of generation spaceships suddenly appeared in the empty sunken space. The light inside is very dim, and the density of matter is frighteningly low, except for a red giant star in the center that has become huge due to extreme expansion, there are no natural stars in the visual range. It may have existed at the beginning of the construction of the sunken space, but it is not necessary that it was later swallowed by a red giant. The current situation of the red giant is quite stable, and there is no problem in burning for tens of millions of years.
At the edge of the concave space there is an artificial star, an all-metal frame, 65,000 kilometers in diameter, oval. Through the initial scanning of the surface, it may be more appropriate to say that this metal planet is a large spaceport. Perhaps it was once the secret starport of the Dogon Empire, or the secret experimental base of the Royal Academy of Sciences, or of course, it could also be a royal refuge. The transport fleet entered here in a hurry, perhaps in order to preserve the fire of the Dogon Empire, with the intention of making a comeback.
After the formation completed docking, the cruising fleet flew out of the hive mothership, and then formed a defensive formation to begin combat readiness defense near the entire formation. The recess space is so big, although the army of star beasts has retreated, but the distance from the formation is definitely not too far, who can be sure that they will not come back, it is absolutely right to be careful.
After all the defense work was completed, the exploration fleet flew out of the starport of the Golden Crow mothership, aiming for a large spaceport in the distance. The Exploration Fleet belongs to the Pioneer Regiment, they are the vanguard of the Golden Crow Fleet's exploration of unfamiliar areas, and every time they arrive in a new star field, most of the information is collected by them.
As the exploration fleet approached, the appearance of the starport began to appear in front of everyone's eyes. Although everyone had seen a larger building in the Karen Freeport, even that could not dampen the shock in the hearts of the pioneers. 65,000 kilometers is enough to fit four earths.
Metal planets don't have an atmosphere outside, not even basic energy shields. Whether it is the thick layer of armor or the empty starport, it is all naked in space. There was no light, no energy reaction, not even a basic heat source, and the entire spaceport felt like it was completely dead.
As the exploration fleet continued to get closer, the outline of the spaceport was no longer visible, and all that could be seen was a dark and vast metal continent with a slight arc. Gradually, the arc disappeared and the metal continent flattened. In the dim light of the red giant, there was a dim light and a dark deep ravine with no fingers, and various alloy passages and other tower-like buildings stood on the surface of the metal continent, full of the stiffness and coldness of technological civilization. The entire spaceport was deserted, and no matter how much detection was used, the interior of the metal continent and the ravines was dead silent.
"This is the 17th Battalion of the Pioneer Regiment, we are about to arrive at the target starport, ready to land, please instruct" Eugene connected to the communication from the command center of the 4th Pioneer Regiment and began to report.
"No instructions, be careful, good luck to you" The voice of the head of the regiment, Shi Lin, came through the communication. The entire ten battalions of the Fourth Pioneer Regiment were all sprinkled into the Star Harbor like splashing water, and Shi Lin was lying when he said that he was not worried. As the first batch of old men of the Pioneer Regiment, Shi Lin has seen too many comrades-in-arms fall by his side along the way from the battle at the Mars base to the present.
This time, the entire Fourth Regiment was scattered into the spaceport, and in the event of an accident, it would not be able to recover it. With a diameter of 60,000 kilometers, the space inside the spaceport can be imagined. The entire Vanguard Regiment sent a total of 100,000 soldiers to form a search party to advance inside, and at best, it would take several months to do a rough reconnaissance of the entire spaceport.
Of course, if the internal power can be restored so that the fleet's artificial intelligence can assist through the internal monitoring network, then the progress will be much faster. The mission of the Eugene search camp this time is to find the location of the command center of the spaceport, and at least the communication node of the starport. As for the energy center inside Starport, it's not Eugene's problem.
"A large area of damage was found outside the starport," the first mate transmitted the images scanned by the radar to Eugene's hands. As the battalion commander of the Pioneer Regiment, Eugene is the supreme commander when he goes out on an expedition, and even the captain must follow Eugene's instructions. This is different from the main fleet, in the main force of the Jinwu fleet, the space force and the ground combat force are two departments that are not under the control of each other, and no one can control the other.
Gently turning on the holographic projection, a radar scan image appeared in front of Eugene. At the edge of the starport, all the mobile external armor and the battleship connection platform on the edge all disappeared without a trace, and the fractures were quite messy, like a big cake that had been gnawed by a dog.
"Check if there are any signs of life," Eugene ordered cautiously.
"There are no signs of life on the detector"
"Then leave it alone, the battleship will fly directly to the starport, and find a good connecting platform to dock. It is very likely that these gaps were caused by the devouring of the Star Beast. So many star beasts living in such a resource-barren space must consume resources, and there is nothing to eat, of course, the idea of hitting the star port, there is no fuss," the experienced Eugene inferred.
"Understood"
The battleship slowed down, then adjusted its course and flew deeper into the starport. The mooring space inside the starport is really empty, it simply gives people a sense of boundlessness, and the space inside is even bigger than the starport space of the entire hive mothership. And this is just one of the smaller of the many starports in the spaceport. As you can imagine, during the most prosperous period, it was a thriving place, and the throughput of each day was absolutely astronomical. But now, everything has become deserted, and there is nothing left.
"Boom!" The battleship shook slightly, then began to adjust its attitude, then continued to shake, continued to adjust, and finally docked steadily on the connecting platform after going back and forth many times. The docking platform inside the starport will provide a position when the energy is sufficient, and the battleship will be connected to the docking platform under the effect of the position after receiving traction into the starport to achieve a stable docking. Now that the entire Starport Energy is down, the docking of warships has become time-consuming and laborious.
"All ready, start landing ............" (To be continued.) )
