Chapter 497, The Mysterious Planet (I)
Destroy all the clones? Li De had never thought about such a thing, and he didn't know how to deal with those clones of his father. Without knowing it, he had already killed a lot of black-armored warriors, but now that he knew the truth, the black Zhan family was all his father, at least genetically, it was his father's genes.
It was also the first time that Li De thought of such a question. The choice he will face is whether or not to help Xinhua kill his father's clones. But what exactly does the federal clone James Lee have to do with his original father? Why does Karin say that James Lee didn't leave any genetic and video information, but there are still a large number of clones in the Federation? These issues will be explained in the following explorations.
Li De did not give everyone an answer, but simply said, "It depends on the situation when the time comes." ”
After the meeting, Li De returned to the captain's room alone. Instead of going to the bridge, he left the navigation and chores to Junlong, and he was bent on improving his strength.
For now, Li De is most worried about the two time bombs in his body. The Angel Egg and the Purple Emperor's Worm Egg were in his body, and it seemed that they were absorbing the cosmic force through him, which made Li De have to spend a lot of time on cultivation every day, because he was really sailing against the current, and if he didn't advance, he would retreat. Of course, Li De's main promotion method before still relied on the awakening of the internal strength of his body, and after meeting the Purple Queen, he was even more sure of this idea.
Then before your strength reaches a certain level, you must keep what is in your stomach. Li De had a strange feeling that he had become a "mother".
In addition, as the inheritance of all the knowledge in the soul bead, Li De also has some puzzles. Goth told him that this is the nature of the soul beads, that the natural formation of magical things contains all kinds of laws and laws in the universe, and those laws are what humans call science.
Yes, in the mouth of the Goths. The science on which human beings depend is a process of continuous discovery and use of laws. If you think about it, science doesn't seem to create laws, it's a process of reasoning and using according to certain operating principles. And in Goth's mouth, there is another higher realm, that is, the realm of creating and changing laws, which is beyond the comprehension of Li De.
For example, the speed of light in a vacuum is 300,000 kilometers per second, which is a constant velocity, but if this law does not exist, does that mean that light can travel in a vacuum at any speed? If that's the case, it means a lot of magical things are going to happen. But obviously this is another realm that is incompatible with human beings and current science. Originally, he also knew little about science, and Li De, who relied on Eva to master those difficult quantum theory knowledge, did not understand it even more.
Of course, Li De doesn't need to understand now. What he needs now is a set of combat armor that will help him the most in the next missions. You must know that on that mysterious planet, there is that black [Thor's Hammer III] type combat armor, and maybe there are even more advanced combat armors. The purple combat armor that Li De wore during the battle at Dreiser was nothing more than an improved version of the Federation's standard power armor, the T-85.
On the Frost Seeker, Eva has a sub-program dedicated to improving the power armor for Lid. He was inspired by Dardanelle's all-stealth power armor before, after all, it was just an application of the full coating, although this holographic projection coating would break after the battle and affect the effect of invisibility, but it was an excellent improvement for possible stealth operations.
Of course. In addition to vision, infrared scanning and electromagnetic scanning are also to be prevented. After all, it is not known what kind of anti-reconnaissance equipment will be there, and the equipment that can be attached to the power armor is also limited. Not to mention, after the addition of electronic devices. The service life of the power armor's polymeric battery will also be reduced, and the defense and mobility will not be affected. Therefore, in the end, Li De decided to add an anti-electromagnetic wave detection device to the chest armor plate, and did not add an anti-infrared scanning device.
In terms of weapons. Li De did not add any external weapons, which was also limited by the holographic coating. At the same time, in order to conceal the needs of his actions, he also chose a bow and arrow, a long-range weapon with little movement.
Perhaps from the beginning. Li De did not plan to lead a team to take risks, but was ready to be a lone hero. He seemed to vaguely feel that this was their mission, that fate had brought him here, to his father. In this case, he has to face his fate, let himself uncover the mystery left by his father, and let himself end the Federation's use of his father.
Ten days later, the Frost Hunter arrived in the Melbourne Star Field.
Melbourne is a middle-aged star with twelve proven planets, like twelve children. And the mysterious planet that is not hidden is the thirteenth. Two of the twelve planets have been transformed into small colonies by humans. The small size here does not mean that the planet itself is small, because the fifth planet of the Melbourne star system is not small, but the number of people on the colonized planet. The population of the entire galaxy is less than 30 million, which is a truly vast and sparsely populated area.
When it came to the Melbourne star field, the Frost Hunter approached an asteroid in the outermost part of the star system, and flew into the galaxy under the cover of this asteroid.
"Send an unmanned exploration spacecraft to explore the target planet first!" It was Mary who gave the order, and she was now in charge of the operation as the Frost Hunter's temporary first mate.
It was Karin who convinced Mary. After Karin's disfigurement gene medication failed and she returned to her original form, she met with Mary several times. Both women of a large family, Karin and Mary had a lot of topics in common, although they didn't have a deep relationship before, and Mary was even more surprised by the fact that Karin was still alive.
No one knew what Karin and Mary had said, and no one knew what Mary had promised to Li De in the captain's room afterwards. As soon as they arrived in the Melbourne Star Field, Li De handed over the command of the Frost to Mary.
Li De, who handed over the command, seemed to have disappeared, and hid in the captain's room for several days without coming out.
A few days later, the unmanned spacecraft sent back the reconnaissance information, and Li De returned to everyone's sight again.
Junlong, Karin and other people who are very familiar with Li De have a feeling that Li De seems to be a little different.
"Let's tell me about the information you got this time, Roy." Li De said after the meeting in the conference room.
Roy stood up, looking a little nervous, after all, it was the first time he had made a formal presentation in the conference room inside the ship. He cleared his throat and inserted the data memory into the conference table. A pre-prepared slide was immediately played on the virtual screen.
"The planet, which we tentatively named James Lee, is 1,152 kilometers in diameter and has an autobiographical period of 24.6 hours. Its surface has an atmosphere, but the atmosphere is perennially covered by a layer of black, non-reflective clouds. Because it does not reflect the light of the star, the planet cannot be observed with the naked eye in the dark starry sky. It is not known whether that layer of clouds was anthropogenic or natural. ”
"Through spectroscopic analysis, we know that the planet's atmosphere is mainly composed of nitrogen and oxygen, with an oxygen content of about 17%, and people can breathe normally, and no toxic substances have been detected. The surface temperature of the planet is around 35 to 10 degrees, which is estimated by atmospheric thermal radiation. So we analyze that there are great signs of life on this planet. But the clouds blocked other means of detection, and we couldn't be sure of any other information. ”
After Roy finished his report, everyone heard that the planet was even more mysterious.
"So, our list of exploration operations for the next time," Xue Weiwei continued with Roy's report, "Given the size of this planet, I suggest sending a ten-member team so that we can quickly find the suspicious points we need to investigate without being exposed." (To be continued.) )
