Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Four, Mining Base on Moskiv Star
Explosion, no sound in space. Even the orange glow of the fire flickered as the air disappeared. But the explosion became the beginning of a nightmare in the eyes of several witnesses.
More than a minute passed, and everyone on the small transport plane was still staring blankly. The spaceship has become a piece of cosmic junk, spreading in all directions under the inertia of the explosion.
"What was that?" Thirteen's voice came from the communicator.
"High Convergence Energy Weapon." Descartes said.
"I know what it is, I mean what do we do now?" In the intercom, Thirteen's tone was very anxious and angry.
"That one looks like it's coming from Moskiv. There are only a handful of weapons that can attack directly from the surface of the planet to synchronous orbit. Descartes began to analyze, steady dìng other people's feelings, "The Federation has a strict record of such weapons, and I don't think it should be the Federal Military Department." ”
"So, there will be aliens on this planet?" Alyssa asked.
"We're going to prepare for the worst!" Descartes said sternly.
The crowd was silent and began to prepare silently.
The prince closed his eyes and began to pray, while Poison, Big Bird and the others gathered their equipment. Leona seemed as calm as Descartes, as if no sudden change could change her cold appearance.
Li De secretly breathed with Eva and asked her to focus on possible hidden locations on the planet's surface. However, the maps they had obtained were old versions from decades ago, so Li De didn't have much hope for this. What Li De was looking for was a place where he could hold a heavy star-to-ship weapon. On such an asteroid, there are certainly not many such locations.
Sure enough, Eva located three possible locations and marked them on the map one by one. They only have a five-day ration on the planet, and if they can find an alien base to attack them, then food, water, and other necessary supplies may be guaranteed.
The small transport plane drove into the planet's atmosphere, and the entire fuselage shook violently. And the hearts of the people hung in their throats. If it is a conspiracy that they came here, will the people who designed this conspiracy have their hands and feet on their transport planes?
As it stands, as soon as something goes wrong with the small transport planes, they will be swallowed up by the planet's atmosphere and turned into cosmic dust.
However, they were obviously not so unlucky, after all, Descartes also had a vague sense of foreboding, and carefully inspected the spaceship and transport plane before departure.
Luckily, the transport plane passed through the atmosphere without any problems, and landed on the tarmac of the Moskiv Star Mining Base, the intended location.
This mining base is not too big, and the entire base was stationed at the most of a thousand miners and logisticians before. Because the gravity of Moskov is small, the wind and sand on the planet are particularly large, and the entire base is a huge underground building.
From the sky, the entire base building is more than two meters above the ground, and the part of the ground is in a hexagonal shape, and the apron is located on one corner of the hexagon. There is a ring of defense around the perimeter of the base, which is the most basic fortification.
The apron enters the mining base and is a large warehouse. The warehouse was now empty, and everyone walked inside in battle armor, making a clanging sound.
Passing through the warehouse, there is the work and living area. Entering this area, Descartes first asks Poison and Big Bird to check the backup motors, and Thirteen and Alyssa check the life support system together. Li De, Liona, the prince and the others were scattered, looking for supplies that could be found, layer by layer.
After Li De came to the base, he searched the entire base with soul techniques, and did not find any life existence. Now he went to the fifth basement floor and began to search for supplies.
This floor is the original equipment storage room. Li De can see from the floor plan of the passage entrance that the original parts storage warehouse and mecha maintenance warehouse. These two places are the focus of Li De's inspection.
Let's start with the parts warehouse. Most of the stuff had been emptied, but there were still a few large boxes left. Li De went to check, and it was all some less commonly used devices, screws, and the like. Li De was not polite, and put all of them into his space bracelet, and asked Eva and his construction robots to sort them out.
Then go all the way to the mecha repair warehouse. Li De found that the evacuation of this mining base seemed to be relatively orderly, because this kind of total evacuation of the base, there are very few like this base, almost nothing is left.
When he arrived at the mecha maintenance warehouse, Li De found a trace of abnormality. Because there are more than a dozen SCV machines for mining lying here.
Some of them were damaged by someone who didn't know what to do in the cockpit, and some were missing arms and legs, lying there like a wounded and sick.
What happened to these miners here? This planet is definitely not given up because of insufficient mineral reserves, as the intelligence says. It's more like there was some danger, and then a planned retreat.
Li De thought about it for a while and decided to repair these SCV machines. He left behind two engineering machines and some parts, and he found that none of the nuclear batteries of these SCVs had been disassembled, and these nuclear batteries were a big gain.
With these matters in order, Lide sent a report to Descartes.
At this time, other people also sent reports.
"No food reserves found, the cafeteria is empty!"
"Drinking water reserves were found, and they were abundant!"
"The spare motor is intact, it takes a minute to activate!"
"The life support system is normal, and it can be activated after waiting for the power supply to be restored, and the oxygen content of the air can be restored after five minutes."
One by one, the news comes together, both good and bad. The crowd still didn't understand whether the news that Li De said that "a batch of miners were found and can be repaired can be tried" was good news or bad news, and the problem of food was the biggest problem they faced.
Half an hour later, the group returned to the command center of the base, which was set up as a temporary command center. The oxygen levels were normal, and everyone took off their masks and breathed the filtered air greedily, as if they had regained some sense of being alive.
"There shouldn't be any living creatures on this planet, but the attack we just encountered. I think we're going to have to investigate there first, and maybe we'll be able to find food. "Poison built yì to.
"Maybe we should find a way to fix the interstellar communication antenna here and contact the military department." Big Bird also raised its own building yì.
"We only have five days of food, do you think those idiots in the military department can send a rescue team in five days?" The prince retorted.
"Do you think we should go to the base of the unknown race that attacked our ship?" Big Bird asked.
Poison nodded, and the prince and Alyssa expressed their support at the same time.
"That base at least has weapons capable of taking down space warships, and I don't know how many enemies there will be, do you think we can get any benefit from going there?" Big Bird obviously doesn't like the building of poison.
"We can only rely on ourselves!" The prince said, "You don't really have that much confidence in the military department, do you?" ”
"What? The Fifth Army will not leave its comrades-in-arms behind! Big Bird said proudly.
"The Fifth Army is finished." Descartes dropped the news of a bombshell.
"What?" The big bird glared angrily at Descartes. If Descartes hadn't been part of the Fifth Army and his own commander, he would have pounced and punched and kicked him. Of course, Big Bird is also self-aware, and he knows that he is no match for Descartes.
"General Douglas has officially retired, relieved of the post of commander of the Fifth Army. The Fifth Army now has almost all the officers above the battalion commander level. Descartes explained to the untruthful people, "They couldn't move me, so they came up with this one." It's just a pity that it affects you. ”
"Fifth Army, really?" Alyssa couldn't believe her ears. The explosion of the spaceship had hit her hard, and now she was a little dizzy when she heard the news of the Legion.
Thirteen fell to his knees almost as soon as his feet went limp, and the others were all stunned. They did not expect that the Fifth Army, which had made them serve loyally, would become like this. All the officers above the battalion commander have been replaced, although the number is still there, is it still the Fifth Army?
"Why?" Big Bird asked even more irrationally, he had the deepest feelings for the troops and the biggest blow he received.
Descartes sighed and did not answer the question. He was a victim himself, and it was not clear who wanted their Fifth Army to be completely transformed.
"We have five days of food, which means we have five days." Li De suddenly said, "The person who destroyed our spaceship, they must have known that we were here." I think the most important thing now is not that we go to them, but that they will come to them. ”
"It's also a hassle, just let them come! It's good to know who TMD is fighting with! Thirteen stood up from the ground and said loudly.
"I saw some improvised fortifications on the periphery of the base, but it was impossible for a few of us to hold the entire base," Li De added, "We need to find some automatic fire and heavy firepower, maybe those fortifications were originally intended to defend something." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Descartes asked, what he heard from Lid's words.
"The evacuation of this base is very strange. The old and useless things were left, and all the useful things were taken away, not even a little leftovers were left. This shows that the base was not evacuated comfortably, but was very urgent, so the most important food and ore were taken away, and even the mining machine did not have time to repair it. ”
"What do you mean?" Descartes asked as he looked at Reid with a frown.
"Whatever else is on this planet will be an enemy that we cannot defend against." Li De said slowly.
