Chapter 17: He Really Has It (Ask for Follow-up)

In the vacuum environment of the universe, there is almost no friction, so as long as there is an initial velocity, it can fly a considerable distance by inertia.

According to common sense, there is no problem at all to reach the Eternal Night Star.

But unfortunately, after they were about to reach the Eternal Night Star, the starship's course suddenly changed, and it actually flew towards the planet that had obscured the sunlight of the Eternal Night Star.

Xia Lian has been educated in this era, so he is no stranger to this situation.

It is clear that the starship was captured by the planet's gravity.

It seems that the anti-gravity system has also stopped.

Mercury didn't say a word, her complexion didn't change, and she was as calm as ever.

Because of the acceleration of the planet's gravitational pull, the starship slammed towards the earth faster and faster, and as the atmosphere rubbed, the body began to tremble.

Mercury struggled to maneuver the fighter plane, maintaining the posture of the fighter plane, and after gliding about hundreds of kilometers on the planet, she shouted.

"Prepare for an anti-collision posture in general."

With her command.

Everyone, including Xia Lian, found a place and sat down.

Xia Lian buckled the seat belt, put his hands on the armrests, and his back was tightly pressed against the chair, and soon, with a loud noise, the fighter plane came into contact with the ground, and Xia Lian only felt that his internal organs were churning and blood was boiling.

Luckily, the impact only touched the ground.

Mercury has a strong ability to operate, and the starship itself has some auxiliary power systems, and the moment it touches the ground, the fighter glides on the ground for a long distance like a drifter, and all the force is directed towards the plane, and there is not much impact.

After the fighter is stopped, the rest of the operators continue to operate on the panel in front of the fighter, and the data flows on the panel.

"Turn on environmental detection."

"Inspecting the environment..... Successfully detected, the star has an atmosphere, but its main component is carbon dioxide, accounting for as much as 95%, and the rest of the components include: 3% nitrogen, 1.6% argon, very little oxygen, water vapor, etc.

The atmosphere is so thin that the air cannot be breathed directly, the gravity is equivalent to 118% of that of Helios, and the temperature during the day is about -17 degrees Celsius, and the temperature at night can reach -95 degrees Celsius, a difference of 78 degrees Celsius. ”

"The preliminary conclusion is that it is not a habitable planet, but it has the potential to be modified, and there should have been a habitable atmosphere in the past, but due to the disappearance of the magnetic field, the atmosphere was carried away by stellar storm activity."

"Is there a possibility of dangerous creatures?"

"No."

"Conduct a hull self-inspection."

"The propeller is damaged, the electronic components of the anti-gravity system are damaged, the energy system goes into protective hibernation, the backup energy source is turned on, and the hull of the airframe is 65% intact...."

Xia Lian, while listening quietly, looked at the scene outside the fighter plane through the projection, the surface of the planet was a barren place at a glance, with lava filling the ground and gravel everywhere.

The volcanic terrain is interspersed with numerous canyons, reminiscent of Martian landscapes.

He looked up again at the Eternal Night Star, which was very close to the planet, and because of its atmosphere, the whole planet looked as if it was covered in a layer of mist.

From here, the terrestrial structure of the Eternal Night Star can already be seen, but it is too far away to see if there is any trace of human activity on it.

The warplane's thrusters were damaged, and if they could not be repaired, the distance of more than 100,000 kilometers might be an insurmountable barrier.

By the time he came back to his senses, Mercury had already stood up from his seat and came to Xia Lian's face.

Although the situation is still not optimistic at the moment.

But fortunately, there should be no pursuers for the time being, which gives him free time to observe the reformer.

This reformer must have followed his mother for more than a decade.

Xia Lian didn't know how old she was, because after the transformation, she was already young forever.

She is very beautiful, with blue-gray eyes, a straight nose, red lips like roses, and a beautiful mole like a finishing touch on the lower right, which is not obvious, does not destroy the overall beauty, but adds a touch of sex appeal and maturity.

Especially the short snow-white hair that is special attack on the countrymen, which is very compatible with her cream-like skin.

Of course, this may not be what she really looked like in the past, because the other transformer named Mithril on Xia Lian's right is similar to her, except that there are no moles at the corners of her mouth, and her hair is slightly longer.

Xia Lian's mother has a mild obsessive-compulsive disorder, and it is possible to make her two relatives look the same.

Their appearance and hair color can be changed at will, which is convenient for disguise, and even their gender can be changed at will.

The specific principle Xia Lian is not clear, probably composed of their internal organs, skin and some bones, which is a special variable biomimetic mimic metal.

They can become another person at any time and infiltrate any place, and the only thing that can distinguish between friend and foe is an identification code that only the Helios military knows.

However, this key identifier was leaked, which led to the infiltration of the enemy's transimen into the Circe forces.

But at this point, there is no need to doubt the identity of these transformational people, after all, they have all burned Bahram Star into glass in front of them, if the enemy had stopped it earlier.

"Looks like we're not going to be able to get to that planet." Xia Lian was the first to speak.

"The hull was badly damaged, the thrusters were damaged, and the energy system went into hibernation.

Although the starship has maintenance personnel inside, the lack of large engineering equipment can make repairs quite long.

But the crux of the matter is that the planet's nighttime temperature is around -100°.

We'll be able to get through tonight, but once the starship runs out of backup power, the thermostat will go into hibernation.

At that time, non-modified people here, as well as those without exoskeleton armor, will freeze to death. ”

"We had a fierce battle not so long ago, and the average energy system was less than 30 percent left." Wang Zhen said worriedly.

"And there's the food problem."

The original chief operator in the main control room spoke, her name is Aisha, she is of mixed race, with short brown and black hair, a delicate appearance, and her appearance is biased towards XJ people.

"The food synthesis system needs energy, and without energy there is no food."

"It's extremely unlikely that there is a protein on this planet that needs the human body, but we'll try to search for it, and I'd suggest that Plan B be implemented at the same time." ”

Xia Lian raised his eyebrows, "What?" ”

"Considering the worst-case scenario, and the fact that you are the only son of the Helios family, the only blood of the family remains, at this critical juncture, I suggest that you leave your chromosome for me to keep first." Mercury said earnestly.

“?”

Xia Lian was stunned for a moment, and slowly typed a question mark.

Then, he said in a daze, "How can you stay?" ”

Mercury looked around at the rest of the people in the main control room, and in addition to the two transformers, there were four men and one woman.

She turned around and said calmly, "Although I am a combat transformer, my mimic bionic system can reconstruct the uterus and the corresponding reproduction system. ”

After understanding the meaning of the mercury, Xia Lian was silent for a moment and said, "I think..... In this existential situation, we should consider how to live, not create people. ”

"Just think about the worst-case scenario, just in case." Mercury said, as if he were talking about something that was all too commonplace.

"It is also one of my responsibilities to continue the blood of Helios.

According to the results of the calculation, the activity of your body and the cells of the genetic material will be at its best during the previous week.

But as time goes on, you will become weaker and weaker due to the shortage of food and water, and the vitality of the cells of the genetic material will be correspondingly weakened.

This would be a major obstacle to the continuation of the Helios family's bloodline. ”

Xia Lian smiled helplessly, this kind of extremely important behavior that will continue the bloodline is undoubtedly backward and feudal from the perspective of human beings in the twenty-first century.

At that time, people would usually criticize this behavior with one sentence: "Why, your family has a throne to inherit?" ”

But embarrassingly, he really does.
