Chapter 209: Where Have All the People Gone?

(Not modified, please ...... later) )

Under Yang Meng's gaze,

The miniature detector inserted the metal probe it carried on its body into the control panel of the hatch.

Seeing the miniature detector in action,

Yang Meng was a little worried about whether the hatch could be opened in such a way.

After all, it is impossible to confirm the level of the security system used by this spacecraft.

"Judging by the shape of the ship, the security on this ship should be more than the security system I currently have!"

But what happened next,

immediately overturned Yang Meng's speculation,

Just a simple plug,

The hatch in the passage was easily opened,

Seeing this situation,

Yang Meng was a little surprised:

"Could it be that the level of security system of this ship is very low?"

Thinking of this possibility, Yang Meng felt a little incredible,

After all, the appearance date of this ship is in front of the Boundless East,

Theoretically, the system inside should be updated,

Unless, since the factory, the system in this spaceship has not been upgraded,

Yang Meng secretly speculated about something,

And in the process of his speculation,

The hatch has been completely opened,

A bright light was cast from the hatch into the dark and cold environment,

The reflection of the miniature detector slowly entered the hatch.

As the field of view of the detector changes,

Yang Meng seems to have seen a new world,

Unlike the hatch outside, which has obvious traces of smoke and fire,

When the detector enters it,

is a bright and clean passage,

This passage is not long,

There is also a white hatch on the other level of the passage,

In this case,

Yang Meng immediately understood that the survivors on the spaceship used this place as a barostatic chamber for entering and exiting.

"Looks like it's been modified!"

"Strange, doesn't this ship have a barostatic chamber section?"

Seeing that it is obviously a modified air pressure chamber,

Yang Meng naturally had such a question,

You must know that although the Boundless Oriental he is riding is called a spaceship,

But in terms of morphological structure, it is more similar to the space station,

It is assembled from one module at a time.

And between each module,

There is a barometric chamber, once there is a fire in a certain compartment, or a gas leak,

Turning off the barostat can stop the danger of such gas leaks.

Even in the face of dangerous fires,

After the barometer is turned off, the burning cabin can also be discarded.

And now the images that come back through the microdetector show that

The current cabin is a temporarily modified air pressure cabin,

"Could it be that the shipbuilders abandoned a lot of the baroflat structure in order to save resources and space?"

The reason why Yang Meng thinks so,

It's also because the barochamber occupies a lot of space.

Essentially, the spacecraft only needs one or two barochamber structures to operate normally.

It's just that in that state, the safety level of the spacecraft will be greatly reduced.

Just when Yang Meng was thinking about the issue of the air pressure chamber,

The miniature detector in the picture begins further action,

apparently

The intelligent program on the probe also judged that this section is a barometric chamber.

Therefore, according to the method of entry into the barochamber,

First closed the outer hatch,

Then through the control device in the air pressure chamber, the pressure inside and outside the cabin is balanced.

However, it is carried out

At this point, the problem arises again,

The detector did not detect any gas injection,

The miniature detector tried several more methods,

Still unable to detect the ingress of gas at equilibrium pressure,

Seeing this situation,

The intelligent program mounted on the rescue device immediately analyzed and judged.

According to the judgment of the intelligent program,

If there is no pressure equilibrium gas ingress,

It is very likely that there is a problem with the gas circulation system of the entire spacecraft,

There is no gas to supply and demand circulation,

or the circulation pipe is blocked or leaking,

And Yang Meng, who has been watching the progress of the detection,

Immediately thought of the bullet holes in the spaceship that had been punched by ballistic weapons,

"Could it be that the effects of ballistic weapons are preventing the ship's gas circulation system from functioning properly?"

Thinking of this possibility, Yang Meng looked at the screen, and he was a little curious about how the miniature detector sent by the rescue detection device would act next.

To Yang Meng's surprise,

The miniature detector did not make any further probes.

Instead, it is ready to open the hatch on the other side directly,

For such a decisive action, Yang Meng moved his fingers and checked the logic of the intelligent program's actions at this time.

[In view of the general environment,

"I see!"

Seeing the action program code displayed in front of him, Yang Meng suddenly understood something,

Because the intelligent control program is carried on the rescue detector,

So the first task of this smart program is to rescue.

And now,

In the event of a failure of the ship's gas circulation system,

Let the intelligent program judge that the personnel in the spaceship are facing an extremely dangerous situation,

Therefore, it is necessary to send a probe as soon as possible to determine the condition of the people inside.

Guided by this logic,

The miniature detector opens the hatch on another level,

And with the opening of the hatch,

A large amount of gas poured into the temporary barometric chamber,

At the same time, Yang Meng also knew,

Although subjected to ballistic weapons,

But there is still a certain gas environment inside the spacecraft,

And with the influx of a large amount of gas,

The miniature detector also briefly analyzed the gas composition in the cabin.

"More than 80% nitrogen

Oxygen content is less than 1%

It's a dangerous situation here!"

Looking at the detected gas composition data, Yang Meng secretly muttered,

Continue to watch the next action of the microrobot,

The lights in the passage are still shining,

Through the illumination of these lights,

Yang Meng found that there were traces of repair on the surrounding cabins,

The original silver-white cabin,

It's a little mottled as if it's not patched.

"It seems that the personnel in here have rescued the spaceship as much as possible,

But in the end, it didn't work out!"

At this time, the miniature probe encountered another hatch,

This hatch is located on the wall of the silo on the left side of the screen.

The hatch is hidden,

You can see a dark crack in the door, and there doesn't seem to be any light inside,

In the face of such a hatch,

Driven by intelligent programs,

The miniature detector immediately checked inside,

Because the hatch is open,

The miniature detector is easy to get into.

With the searchlight on,

Yang Meng saw the situation inside,

He had expected to see a large number of corpses floating in this gravityless environment,

But there was no scene he had imagined.

"This seems to be an equipment pod!"

In the lens of the miniature detector, Yang Meng saw a large number of familiar equipment,

Most of these devices are out of a state of shutdown.

Only some of the screens still have some light flashing,

"Wait, this is the clone pod!"

The lens on the miniature detector shook for a moment, and Yang Meng seemed to see something, allowing Xiao Yin to return the picture to the position just now.

"Sure enough, it's a cloning pod, and there are traces of use!"

"It seems that the owner of this ship is not a serious force!"

Yang Meng adjusted the picture to normal playback again,

Then I saw that the miniature probe left the equipment compartment after finding no living person.

Seeing the miniature detector acting like this, Yang Meng was stunned for a moment,

If he were to operate this miniature detector,

No matter how you say it, you have to explore the various equipment in the equipment compartment in detail.

A large amount of information can be inferred from the usage records of these devices.

But unfortunately, the miniature detector is controlled by an intelligent program on the rescue device.

And on the rescue device, the highest priority task

It's on this spaceship to find the living,

Therefore, Yang Meng could only watch the miniature probe leave the equipment cabin with a large amount of important information.

Keep exploring inside.

And so the miniature probe explored a few more chambers,

Strangely, however,

No human bodies were found in the chamber.

Such a phenomenon makes Yang Meng a little strange,

"From the inside of the ship, it's clear that there are signs of repair.

This shows that after the battle, the spaceship

And some survived,

And judging by the traces of repairs,

There may be a certain number of survivors!"

"But why didn't you see anyone, not even a corpse?"

At this time, the miniature probe entered a new chamber.

When he saw the internal structure of this cabin, Yang Meng suddenly came to his senses:

"This is the living pod!"

"And it's the living room of the hibernation pod!"

In the image seen by the miniature detector,

Yang Meng saw a row of sleeping cabins,

He made a rough count, and there were fifteen sleeping pods in it

"That means there were at least fifteen living people on board!"

At this point,

The miniature probe also came to the hibernation chamber,

Like Yang Meng, the intelligent program that regards rescue as the highest priority,

Immediately drove the miniature probe to probe these dormant chambers,

"The first hibernation pod is empty!"

Soon the probe was able to probe the first hibernation chamber.

When empty data is detected,

In order to avoid misjudgment, the intelligent program even opened the first sleeping cabin after a certain logical analysis.

And just like the previous program detection,

There is no one in it who is hibernating.

"No one!"

Seeing this situation, it is even more strange,

"Along the way, not only did the other cabins not see anyone in the sleeping pod,

Even if there is no one in the sleeping cabin,

What's going on?"

"Perhaps, the first hibernation pod happens to be empty!"

Yang Meng continued to watch the next action of the miniature detector,

Soon the probe reached the second hibernation capsule,

Inside

The old is empty,

And in order to confirm something, the probe also opened the second hibernation capsule,

It's still empty,

And so the third hibernation pod,

Fourth, fifth......

Under the control of intelligent programs, the microrobots probed the sleeping pods one by one.

When you see that every hibernation pod is empty,

Yang Meng also thought,

After the ship was attacked,

The crew inside is not dormant, and these dormant cabins are always empty.

But when the miniature detector detected the eleventh hibernation capsule,

Yang Meng finally saw something,

There are still no dormant personnel in the eleventh hibernation pod.

But when the miniature probe opens the hibernation chamber,

Yang Meng could see that there were some strange traces on the lining of the sleeping cabin,

These marks seem to have been left behind after tearing,

"This kind of trace, someone in the dormancy pod has struggled!"

"Could it be that someone in the hibernation pod used to be dormant but was violently dragged out?"

Yang Meng couldn't be sure,

But he can let Xiao Yin conduct some force analysis on the traces in the dormant cabin.

And after Xiao Yin's quick analysis, soon a phantom appeared in front of Yang Meng's eyes,

This phantom is lying in the hibernation pod,

But the next moment, it seems that someone is dragging this human phantom out,

The phantom struggled around, leaving a lot of marks in the sleep pod.

Seeing the results of this analysis, Yang Meng had a chilling feeling,

He looked again at the image data sent back by the rescue probe,

After clicking play,

The microrobots continue to probe,

Soon all the dormant pods were checked,

No dormant personnel were found inside.

If it weren't for the discovery of the eleventh hibernation pod,

Yang Meng also thought that these dormant cabins could not be used because of the war.

At this time, when I think of the traces of struggle,

He thought of a possibility,

These hibernation pods were originally filled with dormant personnel.

But for some reason it was dragged away,

And the people in the eleventh hibernation capsule, for some reason, woke up unexpectedly, and in the face of danger, they naturally rebelled.

But judging by the clean living compartment,

Such a revolt does not seem to have any effect.

"What's going on on this ship, is it infighting?"

Yang Meng is not clear,

And the miniature detector did not find a living person,

Continue towards the next cabin

Soon the probe came to a new chamber,

When the miniature probe enters this chamber,

Yang Meng couldn't identify what this cabin was for the first time.

But when he noticed a device in the cabin,

In combination with the interior layout of the cabin,

The name of a cabin suddenly popped up in Yang Meng's mind:

"Dining room!"

The cosmic environment is different from that of the earth.

Because of the gravity-free environment, food scraps will be scattered everywhere.

In order to avoid food contamination of the environment inside the spaceship,

The place to eat on the spaceship is generally fixed,

Yang Meng's usual place to eat is in the living room,

Because it's a person, a small space is enough

But on a ship with a large number of people,

You need a special dining room,

In receiving the periodic communication of the earth, Yang Meng learned that there is such a cabin in a multi-person spaceship,

And now, Yang Meng has seen such a dining room with his own eyes,

But there is a feeling of hair in my heart,

Especially when he saw the large-scale organic recycling and manufacturing equipment in the meal, the strange feeling in his heart was even stronger.

"That's not right!"

"There shouldn't be cannibalism!"

"As long as the energy supply and circulation system are functioning properly

Food technologies such as carbon monoxide to protein, carbon dioxide to carbohydrate starch, and metabolites to circulate have long been mastered.

It is completely possible to form a perfect balance of water and food on the ship."

"There's no need to worry about the food at all, I must be wrong!"
