Chapter 9: The Destroyed Society
Now, the Nebula is flying in a wormhole, heading for its destination, Neptune.
Inside the ship, the three of them are in the control room, Fanker is controlling the spaceship to fly, and Haruka is controlling the miniature robots in the ship to carry the newly purchased ammunition and weapons. Ling was looking at some information.
Ellie: [Captain, due to the distance from Neptune, it will take you two wormhole jumps, so it will take nearly 2 hours to arrive.] ]
[Well, I see.] ]
Haruka: [What have you been looking at since you just now?!] ]
[I'm looking at information about the Society on Neptune.] ]
Haruka: [Do you know what then?] ]
[What is said on the Internet is basically the same, it should be correct or all false.]
It is said on the Internet that the society on Neptune is the largest society in the universe, and they are a society that specializes in black holes, and it seems that there has been some important breakthrough. ]
Fanker: [Isn't that nice?] ]
[It's good to just look at the information, but if you put it on the Internet, wouldn't it be easy for your opponents or other bad people to know?] ]
Fanker: [Indeed!] ]
Haruka: [Let's talk about it when we get to our destination.] ]
However, suddenly, a small ship passed by quickly, and because it was relatively close to them, the Nebula was affected by the ship's air currents for a while, and the hull was unstable.
Fanker: [Holy, how did that guy drive the spaceship!] Fly so hard, and get so close! ]
[Forget it now, it's important to get to your destination.] ]
However, as they passed through the first wormhole, another ship with a larger bow passed them.
Fanker: [Damn, it's the second time, do people want to die so much now?!] ]
Ellie: [After checking, the Nebula is not lost, just a little scratch, and I can control the microrobot to repair it.] ]
Ling: [I'll leave it to you.] ]
Haruka: [Aren't you surprised?] Obviously, there are no stars here except Neptune, and it should be an inaccessible place, why are there two bow spacecraft passing quickly? ]
Fanker: [Is there really a bad guy who has a crush on that society?] ]
Ling: [It's useless to speculate now, fly to Neptune at full speed!] ]
Due to the acceleration of the flight, it took only 40 minutes to reach Neptune.
Neptune, from the perspective of the universe, is actually an all-blue planet, giving people the feeling that this planet is full of water and full of oceans, it is a beautiful planet.
However, since Neptune is the farthest from the Sun, Neptune's interior is practically almost snow. At the same time, Neptune's atmosphere, unlike Earth's, is mostly methane, so it is difficult to breathe.
However, it is a good place to hide or conduct secret research.
What follows is my personal conjecture, so don't believe it, if you like celestial knowledge, you can look it up online.
Because Neptune's atmosphere has a lot of methane and a large concentration, when Nebula descended, it used air pressure to control the falling speed and try to avoid methane combustion and explosion.
Ellie: [I've added a barrier to you, so you can breathe freely outside, and at the same time, you don't have to worry about the cold weather, the barrier can solve this problem once and for all.] ]
Ling: [Okay, let us know as soon as anything happens.] ]
Haruka: [Also online at all times, we may need your help.] ]
Ellie: [I see, you'll need to ride a motorbike because the snow is soft, and the site of the Society is 2 kilometers north of here.] ]
Fanker: [Oh!] Easy and easy to get there in 10 minutes. ]
So, Haruka and Ling got on Fanker's motorcycle and headed for Gakkai.
Although there was a lot of snow and wind along the way, Ellie did not suffer much resistance because of the barrier she put on, and she reached her destination with ease.
However, what they saw shocked the three of them.
The building in front of me was in tatters, full of holes, and it didn't look like it could be left behind.
When the three of them walked inside, they saw an even more tragic situation.
There were more than a dozen corpses in the field, all of which were frozen and lying on the ground, and they were all messed up inside, and there were many footprints on the ground, as if they had been attacked here.
Ling: [Ellie, come over right now, and keep the Nebula on standby over here.] ]
Ellie, who was on the Nebula, clapped her hands slightly, and the little puppet came to Ling's side to see this tragic scene.
Ling: [Scan this place right now, I want to know what's going on here!] ]
Ellie clapped her hands again, and the Nebula flew into the sky above the building, shooting a special green light to scan the building.
After 3 minutes, the scan is complete.
Ellie: [Scanned, do you need to show it in 3D?] ]
Ling nodded, and Ellie used the 3D effect to show the original appearance of this place through the Nebula.
Ellie: [This is the image before the attack.] ]
Thanks to the 3D effect, the entire building and the people inside are perfectly displayed, making it feel like you're really there.
Before the attack, people here were busy researching.
Then, the picture breaks into the situation when it was attacked, and suddenly a lot of people with guns ran in, ignoring everything, and directly opened fire, killing many people. Then, I started to wonder what to search for here.
After searching for a while, it seemed that he couldn't find it, so he left in a hurry. However, the image is not over yet, because there is nothing else to do.
A moment after the attackers had left, a man came running in from outside, looking very surprised, and fell to his knees and began to cry. Soon after, he ran away again.
That's it for the image.
Haruka: [That's too much!] Who are those? ]
Ellie: [Since it is impossible to tell where the assailants are from the footprints, the only thing that is certain is that the assailants are all male, and they are basically around 1.7 meters tall.] And the last person to come in was a woman, also about 1.7 meters tall, and expected to be between 16-19 years old. ]
Fanker: [You guys come and see this.] ]
Fanker was holding something similar to a picture frame, and there was a photo in it, which seemed to be someone from the Society.
Ling and Haruka both saw that in the middle of this photo, there was a little girl about 7-8 years old, with a smile on her face.
Haruka: [Judging from the photos, I think it's been about 10 years.] ]
Fanker: [So, the girl who cried at the end was the girl in the video.] ]
Ling: [Who did it?] ]
Haruka: [What should I do?] Leave it alone, or we'll find it out ourselves. ]
Ling: [The attackers look like they're looking for something, otherwise they wouldn't have attacked without saying anything.] ]
Fanker: [Chances are they're looking for that girl.] ]
Ling: [In that case, let's go now!] ]
The three of them immediately returned to the Nebula.
Ling: [Ellie, first scan the 5km radius to see if there is any trace of the spaceship, and at the same time, draw a picture of what the girl looks like now.] ]
After a few minutes, the scan is complete.
Ellie first shows the girl on the home screen. In terms of appearance,Because it's synthetic.,I don't know if it's accurate.,But it's a very cute girl.。
The screen then displays a map within a 5-kilometer radius of the area.
There are two shadows on the map, one large and one small, which are supposed to be two ships with different bows, and they are in opposite positions.
Ellie: [The large bow, judging by the snow marks, must have only been here for a short time, and there is a good chance of being an attacker.] And the small one stayed for more than a week. ]
Ling: [Compare it to the two bowships we encountered at the wormhole.] ]
Ellie: [This step has been done, and the size is the same as what we encountered.] ]
Haruka: [Do you want to track it?] ]
Ling: [If that girl has the clue we're looking for, then find it anyway.] ]
Haruka: [What do you really think?] ]
[……… Unforgivable! ]
Fanker: [Okay!] The goal is the same! Then fly! ]
The Nebula set off again, looking for the small ship in the bow.
So what's going on here? Did the fleeing girl have the clues they needed in their hands?
