Chapter 211: Waiting for Me Here

9.1 per cent for option I, 36.7 per cent for option II, 36.7 per cent for option III and 18.2 per cent for option IV.

……

[Option 2]

[Long-range weapons based on high-energy ray guns]

[Option 3]

【Mini Spacecraft】

……

The final vote was dominated by these two. The microcomputer gave a matching course of action, and Zheng Zhuo fully believed the results obtained by the precise calculations of the latest computer.

Everyone shared the same protocol. Wei Hao gave instructions according to it.

"Split up."

Time was limited, and the team members were divided into two ways. The 3 scouts guide the 3 assault team members deep into the asteroid's hinterland and enter the fierce battlefield in search of more weapons.

The instruction given by Wei Hao was "mainly long-range weapons".

"Focus on the search for high-energy ray guns, which do not carry electromagnetic pulse guns."

The High Energy Ray Gun is the lightest and can carry the most. The mass weapon would make the load of the [Leap Ship] exceed the standard, and it was sifted away by Wei Hao. As for not searching for EMP devices, he was worried that it would affect the central processing unit implanted in his brain.

The soldiers saluted neatly and left. They began to carry out the operation.

"Let's go."

Wei Hao and Zheng Zhuo executed the second plan: the two of them went to open a [mini spacecraft] scanned on the map. The radar showed it in the exact opposite position to the hinterland.

Zheng Zhuo nodded. He picked up the [Armor-Piercing-Blaster] that had been reloaded.

……

Along the way, Zheng Zhuo raised twelve points of vigilance.

Split up. This word stimulated Zheng Zhuo's nerves, which had already been through a hundred battles.

Splitting up means that the probability of being in danger is doubled, that there is a high probability that something will happen, and that greater risk must be met with fewer people.

He didn't dare to slack off for a moment. He freed up almost all of the memory in the power armor's microcomputer and devoted himself to searching and alerting the surrounding terrain.

Bio-chemical annihilation weapons have been dropped here. But Zheng Zhuo was still not at ease.

There were only two of them. In order to maximize all the carryable weight for the wreckage found on the ground, all were equipped with only a small number of weapons. Zheng Zhuo only applied for another [Single-Molecule Combat Knife], and Wei Hao didn't even apply for a gun: he still only had the [Single-Molecule Combat Knife] that Zheng Zhuo had given him earlier.

As a regimental non-commissioned officer, his actions set an example for everyone. He "got the job done" ahead of all other factors, which greatly increased his prestige in this freshman squad. He gained more trust, but at the same time......

(It also puts everyone in a situation where they are forced to gamble.) )”

Zheng Zhuo thought in his heart.

Microcomputer calculations show that the probability of this remaining enemy is 0.001%.

Very small probability. Zheng Zhuo was willing to believe that it was equal to zero, but alas, he couldn't.

……

The vigilance continued until they found the [Mini Spacecraft], until Wei Hao and Zheng Zhuo restarted it with reference to the emergency work guide that came with the Power Armor, and then they sat in the small boat.

What Zheng Zhuo feared did not happen. There was no swarm of insects popping out of some dark cavern, no earth suddenly collapsing, no sky suddenly collapsing.

The Mini Spacecraft has been activated.

“(…… Am I worrying too much? )”

Zheng Zhuo thought and took over the co-pilot authority of the [Mini Spacecraft].

The spacecraft slowly lifted off against a pitch-black background. In the distance, Zheng Zhuo had already seen the silvery-white streamlined body of the [Jump Ship] that began to dock towards low-earth orbit through the long-distance camera. After a few more moments, he saw a small white dot spew flames rising from the ground, dragging a long disturbance trail behind him towards the jumpship.

This was part of the previous plan. Zheng Zhuo's helmet popped up with the words "6 members of the 187th Legion, have been lifted into the air".

The two of them took some time to repair the mini-spacecraft, and the [Jump Ship] had already arrived. Therefore, Wei Hao ordered the remaining six people who had already completed the search for long-range weapons on the ground to return first.

This avoids waiting times when docking. As for Wei Hao and Zheng Zhuo, the mini spacecraft they were on had the function of orbital liftoff, and there was no problem in completing the docking with the jump ship.

Zheng Zhuo also discovered something at this time.

The more likely the microcomputer calculated, the more worried he became. Just like now, according to the current scheme, the mini spacecraft will be lifted off after 17 star minutes, and the docking with the jump ship will be completed after 22 star minutes, with a simulated docking success rate of 99.6%.

But he just couldn't help but wonder if there would be an accident.

On the contrary, when the rescue was carried out before, when the return capsule was forcibly activated, the computer almost crashed, and either the success rate data could not be given, or the success rate was only 30~40%.

At that time, he thought it must be okay.

(Am I no longer suitable for a stable working life?) )”

Zheng Zhuo slandered in his heart.

……

After all, computers are more reliable than human sixth sense, and Zheng Zhuo belongs to the type of sixth sense that is relatively inaccurate among human beings.

As a result, everything worked fine. The mini-spacecraft was lifted off at the perfect time according to the computer's arrangement, accessed at the perfect time, and was perfectly captured by the [Jump Ship] and sent into the buffer cabin.

Zheng Zhuo finally breathed a sigh of relief when all the pneumatic hatches lit up the green light of [closing], and the jump ship restarted after a slight shaking, re-marking the path to the "Goethe" flagship.

The roof of the mini-spacecraft opened. Zheng Zhuo lifted his seat belt, leaned back in the chair, and exhaled the air in his lungs.

"Everything was perfect, but I felt tired......"

He stretched, swiped his identity, and connected his power armor's microcomputer to the Leap Ship's shared LAN.

Beside him, Wei Hao was also performing the same action. At this point, the mission of the 187th team is over. Wei Hao is uploading all the data related to the mission to the flagship terminal through the signal base station of the jump ship, deleting the local backup, and then downloading the star map model of the surrounding star fields in the vacated space.

Zheng Zhuo requested that part of the star map be shared. He couldn't have asked for more: his microcomputer was much smaller than Wei Hao's, with a memory chip installed.

So, there are some things he can only ask.

"Does any planet appear to be covered in a blue-green liquid?"

He asks the questions that matter most to him.

"I haven't seen it yet."

Wei Hao's eye movement frequency is super high. He was reviewing and recording the star map as fast as he could.

"The central area of 1,907 has been scanned and found nothing. Why do you ask? ”

"I got a piece of information that I was a little concerned about."

There is no need to hide it from Wei Hao. Zheng Zhuo decided to change the wording a little and then tell Wei Hao about it. He floated out of the mini-spacecraft and opened the door to the inside of the jump ship in the buffer room.

Wei Hao came after him.

"That piece of information ......"

Just when Zheng Zhuo was halfway through speaking.

Suddenly, the leap ship shook violently. Zheng Zhuo and Wei Hao were almost thrown out of the door.

Immediately after, all the lights in the room went out. A second later, the faint green emergency light came on. Inside the helmet, warnings pop up one after another.

"Attacked! Attacked! ”

The shrill sound of an alarm sounded like it was about to pierce the eardrum.

"Attacked! Attacked! The Zerg spaceship appears at very close range! Repeat, attacked! Please quickly enter the preparation post of the personnel of all units! ”

The jump ship is under attack!

The problem is that Zheng Zhuo and Wei Hao have just boarded the ship...... They weren't assigned to prepare for war!

……

【Question】
