New Orange Galaxy, Planet 2.

The golden sunset shines through the high dome, the shadows of the branches swaying between the neat fields, and a group of workers in white jumpsuits are shuttling among the various plants of the earth, or collecting samples or measuring data.

The cart next to the field is full of freshly collected fruits and vegetables, red, yellow and green placed together, which arouses people's appetite and makes them want to stuff them into their mouths immediately.

Zhu Yuhan looked at this scene with a smile, and his heart was extremely satisfied.

After Gong Yiding was transferred from Luojian Mountain, he briefly led the management of the base, but he was born in scientific research and was not good at management, so it didn't take long for him to resign from his administrative position and continue to engage in scientific research.

Later, human beings went out of the solar system and built a large number of surgical research stations, and at Zhu Yuhan's strong request, they arranged him to the new orange galaxy 22 light years away from the solar system, which is also one of the farthest scientific research stations from the solar system.

The new orange is the name given after the establishment of the research station, and it is also known here as the number: HD85512.

Because the star here is an orange dwarf, the first humans to arrive here directly took the name of the new orange galaxy.

It's hard to say whether it's sticky or not, it's true that it's simple, convenient and easy to understand.

As for the planetary environment here, it's hard to put into words.

HD85512b, which means that Planet 2 is slightly larger than Earth, has a larger mass, is moderately distant from the stars, and even has a primary ecosystem, so it is a very suitable habitable planet just by looking at the data.

But in fact, only the temperature of this planet in the equatorial region is above freezing, and the northern and southern hemispheres are frozen all year round, which is comparable to the ice age of the earth.

Mankind's research stations are built on the equator...... Three-quarters of the entire equatorial Earth is submerged by oceans, and only a quarter*** is outside the sea.

It's hard to say whether this location is good or bad, and while it's currently the most suitable location, studies have shown that once the ice of the new orange star melts, the equatorial region will be flooded with seawater up to 400 meters deep.

And how to raise the temperature of the new orange star is also one of the key research projects of the scientific research station, and many researchers joked in private, saying that everyone studied how to flood the scientific research station all day long.

However, the planet's climate change is a very long process, and for a while, there is no need to worry about safety at all.

"Stationmaster Zhu!" Lan Qingyu said hello from afar, walked to Zhu Yuhan, and handed the document in his hand to him, "This is today's research report, please sign it."

Zhu Yuhan didn't sign it hastily, but opened the report and looked at the originally stretched brows, and immediately frowned: "So many dead again? Have you figured it out?"

"The cause has been found, and it should be a problem with trace elements." Lan Qingyu said.

Zhu Yuhan's whole person is not good: "It's a trace element again?"

Lan Qingyu nodded, "Yes."

The most important work of the research station is to simulate human colonization of new planets, find out the problems that may be encountered in the process of colonization, and do our best to solve them.

The primary ecosystem of the new orange star has only a small number of native plants, and there are no protozoa that have not yet been discovered.

In the eyes of conservationists, such a planet is very precious, and the native species here must be carefully protected and not destroyed in the slightest. ….

However, for the overall benefit of the authorities and humanity, there is no positive significance in preserving native species, and the first priority is to replace them with planetary species in order to obtain the most suitable environment for human survival.

The fruits, vegetables, and flowers and trees planted in this field are prepared for transplanting outside the dome.

Not only plants, but also various insects and plankton.

According to the plan, these Earth species will establish a new ecosystem on the new orange star, and after hundreds or even thousands of years of artificial intervention, they can form a planetary environment suitable for human survival.

At that time, it will be possible to build this place into a second earth.

However, in recent times, various studies have been troublesome, and they are basically related to trace elements.

No way, the new orange star is typical

The light element galaxy is not without heavy elements, but the proportion is pitifully small, and it cannot meet the growth needs of the earth's animals and plants.

In the beginning, plants were cultivated with the soil brought by the earth, and animals were fed with the food brought by the earth, but nothing went wrong.

However, after entering the transplanting stage, the plant wilts and catches its head, and then dies in a large area; The insects became weak and died en masse.

The research station did not fail to take into account the effects of trace elements, and the purpose of this study was not to send a large number of Earth species directly to the new orange star, but to select a group of animals and plants that are less dependent on heavy elements.

As a result, it is a pity that they are accustomed to an environment full of heavy elements, and the first batch of earth animals and plants to settle in New Orange Star are seriously unadaptable.

To be more accurate, the plants of the earth are completely unable to adapt to the soil of the new orange star, and the insects of the earth cannot eat the plants of the new orange star.

In the end, there was no way, the scientific research station could only ask the earth for help, and asked for a batch of special fertilizers made of various heavy elements in proportion, mixed with the soil of the new orange star, so that the earth's plants could take root under the dome.

Not only animals and plants, but also the staff here must regularly supplement various heavy elements, but instead of taking medicine, they should be added to the diet in a quantitative amount to avoid health problems caused by lack of heavy elements.

Zhu Yuhan sighed helplessly, and signed his name with a phoenix: "The next research direction is how to reduce the dependence of animals and plants on heavy elements!"

Studies have shown that most galaxies in the universe are severely lacking in heavy elements, and we can't just give up these hard-to-find habitable stars because of this, right?

Lan Qingyu took the document: "This, you have to arrange it yourself...... Stationmaster, hasn't our fleet been in contact with a lot of alien civilizations? Can you talk to the above and find a civilization whose home planet is similar to the new orange star, and let's do some research materials?"

Zhu Yuhan thought seriously for a moment and nodded: "This can have a ......."

Woo –

The piercing siren suddenly exploded, and everyone sighed in unison: Again?

Zhu Yuhan roared loudly: "What are you doing in a daze, run!"

This is the highest level of alert and means that everyone must immediately enter the lifeboat and wait for further news.

If a Phase 2 alert is issued, everyone must immediately evacuate the research station and not return until the alert is lifted.

However, everyone was not nervous, and everyone entered the lifeboat in an orderly manner as usual, and sat in their respective positions with their equipment on, waiting patiently. ….

Since the establishment of the scientific research station, there has been an evacuation drill at least once a month, and no one knows whether this time is a drill or a real battle.

However, there were still many people who did not have time to enter the lifeboat, and the siren suddenly changed and entered the second stage.

Everyone was stunned at the same time.

Although the drills at the base are frequent, they only practice evacuation, and never practice evacuation, what is going on today? Could it be that something happened?

Everyone's nerves suddenly tensed, and the movements under their feet immediately intensified a little.

The dome opened, and the full lifeboats took off first, and then dozens of lifeboats rose into the air in turn to dock with the spacecraft orbiting the planet.

Zhu Yuhan rushed to the bridge as soon as possible: "What's wrong?"

Captain Ji Yan turned his head, his neat short hair swaying slightly: "An unknown wormhole has been found at the edge of the galaxy."

Zhu Yuhan was puzzled: "Isn't it our spaceship?"

"I don't have any plans to fly lately." Ji Yan said.

"What if it's a temporary fly-on? Do you know how much damage it is to evacuate the base?" Zhu Yuhan immediately became anxious.

It's too hasty to evacuate everyone from the base because of an uncertain accident!

"It's not in the right direction, and the call doesn't respond." Ji Yan was unmoved, and looked at Zhu Yuhan without deviation, "If the base is gone, it can be rebuilt, and if the experiment is destroyed, you can start again, but if the people are gone, there will be nothing."

Zhu Yuhan held his breath in his chest, unable to spit out and swallow.

He understood the reason, but he didn't think it was necessary.

At this moment, a spot of light suddenly appeared on the radar, and Ji Yan was shocked: "Orange Lake, what's the situation with you?"

There are a total of four warships stationed in the new Orange Star, namely the Orange Light, the Orange Lake, the Orange Wild, and the Orange Boat.

After discovering the anomaly, the Orange Lake rushed to the scene to check the situation as soon as possible.

The light spots on the screen are remote warning signals, and each light point represents a wormhole.

Just look at the screen, there are at least dozens of ...... No, hundreds of wormholes!

A voice came from the communication: "Orange Light, unidentified fleet has been discovered, our ship has issued a warning, but has not received a reply from the other party...... Orange light, orange light, the enemy fires at our ship, the enemy fires at our ship!"

Zhu Yuhan had palpitations for a while, why was he okay just now, and he started fighting after such a while?

He really wanted to ask clearly, but he no longer understood the world, and he also knew that he could not disturb the operational command at this time, and it was already an extrajudicial favor to be able to leave him in the bridge.

Ji Yan's eyes suddenly turned red: "Orange Lake, evacuate immediately, evacuate immediately—"

"Orange Light, our ship was bitten by an enemy ship, and we can't evacuate, we can't evacuate...... We can't leave, please withdraw immediately, repeat, please withdraw immediately!"

Ji Yan was stunned on the spot.

If there were no scientific personnel on board, she would have immediately ordered emergency assistance, and even if everyone died on the battlefield, the Orange Lake could not be left behind.

But she can't risk it with a ship full of researchers!

At the critical moment, Chi Yan immediately decided: "Attention to all ships, gather all scientific research personnel on the Orange Boat, evacuate immediately after the transfer, and warn the earth, the Orange Wild will support the Orange Lake with me!"

When the order was given, everyone immediately took action, Zhu Yuhan didn't say a word, glanced deeply at Chi Yan, who didn't look back, re-boarded the lifeboat, and transferred to the Orange Boat with other scientific researchers. ….

The wormhole opened, the Orange Boat returned to the solar system, and the orange light and orange field were about to leave, when more than a dozen wormholes suddenly opened around, and then more than a dozen, and in a blink of an eye, more than a dozen strange warships appeared near the new orange star.

Ji Yan only glanced at it, and immediately confirmed the identity of the other party: "All attention, fire!"

At the sound of an order, the two warships opened fire at full power, and several missiles exploded near the battleship, forming a smoke screen that completely covered the battleship.

The battleship hidden in the smoke fired continuously, and the missiles were launched as if they were not going to pay for money, creating a larger smoke screen while launching a surprise attack on the enemy ship.

Ordinary human warships do not have the equipment as powerful as the Starship, and cannot use wormhole tactics, so they can only honestly use conventional means to attack enemy ships.

However, the speed of the missile was so slow that it was destroyed by enemy fire without even touching the side of the enemy ship.

However, these missiles are just a cover to attract the enemy's attention, and the real killer features are actually electromagnetic cannons and hot melt rays!

Needless to say, artillery missiles have never disappointed, although the speed is far inferior to directed energy weapons, but each missile is equipped with mushroom shells, and as long as one hits, it can tear through the shield of the enemy ship.

The two enemy ships that rushed to the front suddenly fell silent, and no matter how many calls the other enemy ships called, they did not respond.

The two battleships were actually hit by hot rays, and the temperature inside the ships reached more than 400 degrees at an extremely fast speed, and the equipment was not destroyed much, but the personnel could not withstand the scorching heat, and they were completely finished.

Even if you wear protective equipment, it's useless - the research results of this weapon Xingzhou Base are far less powerful than the original, and it doesn't have as much coverage as Xingzhou, and even the temperature is a lot worse than the original.

However, it is not a matter of smelting steel and iron to deal with enemy ships, and it doesn't need such a high temperature at all, regardless of whether he burns the enemy to charcoal or only three degrees of cooking, as long as he can kill the enemy, it is a good weapon.

The other party seems to have discovered the evacuated Orange Boat and divided a group of warships to open the wormhole, which means that they plan to catch up.

Orange Light Orange immediately fired to stop it.

Although there were only two warships on the human side, the ever-expanding smoke screen gave the humans an advantage, and in a few moments, two more enemy ships sank.

The enemy's firepower was extremely ferocious, and if it hadn't been distracted by the smoke screen, Orange Light and Orange Field would have been finished long ago.

However, the bad news finally came back, the Orange Lake was outnumbered, exploded and sank under the siege of a large number of enemy ships, and all more than 200 people on the ship were killed, and no one survived.

More warships appeared near the new orange star, surrounded the smoke screen, and the dense artillery fire caused multiple damage to the two ships, and Ji Yan had to give the order to abandon the ship.

The core compartments of the two ships popped out of the ship, but the smoke screen of Chengya was also defeated, and the enemy did not know that the two human warships had sunk, and continued to fire into the smoke screen.

The Orange explodes again, casting the shadow of the core module onto a smoke screen, causing the enemy ships to burst into flames.

The light flickered, and the core module of the Orange Wild was wiped out, leaving not even a single slag behind.

Ji Yan was cold, but she could only watch.

It seems to have realized that the human warship was finished, and the enemy did not fire again, but left the new orange system in batches.

By the time the smoke screen floated out of the core module disguised as an asteroid, not a single enemy ship could be seen.

The research station on the ground was also destroyed by the enemy, leaving only a ruin.

Ji Yan clenched her teeth tightly, her fingertips white.

She suddenly raised her head and turned on the communication system: "Orange Call, Orange Call, the new Orange Galaxy has been attacked by an unknown fleet, and the receiving units should immediately warn the Earth......

The communication equipment in the core cabin can only open a small wormhole, and after a while, this small wormhole exhausts the reserve energy of the core module, and the communication is completely interrupted.

Ji Yeon let out a long breath.

She has done everything she needs to do and can do, and whether the earth can receive the news or not can only depend on the will of God.
