Chapter 561: A Broken Spaceship, 1 Dime and 1 Kilowatt Hour?
North Berry Island, Colora Canyon.
The scorching sun shines through the clouds, through the cracks in the branches and leaves of pines and spruces, and swayes freely on every inch of the valley floor.
A gentle breeze swept in a touch of coolness.
A heavily armed squad, estimated to number 100 people, wore stab-proof suits and body armor, wore a pair of olive-colored rainforest combat boots on their feet, and carried not only magazines, grenades, communication equipment, but also a sharp Boi knife around their waists.
"Click!"
The armed members who walked at the forefront kept waving their blades to cut through the messy vines one by one, thus clearing a path.
Raxxus, wearing a pair of heavy metal handcuffs and leg irons, silently followed.
Despite the longevity of the lifeforms of the Curvature D-10 Galaxy, usually over 500 years old, he was naturally weak during his more than seventy years of captivity on nutrient fluids.
Every few minutes of walking, he would stop out of breath and take a big breath of fresh air.
Raxxus's style was clearly seen by the armed men, but they did not dare to take it lightly.
Along the way, you can often hear the low roar of wild beasts, the occasional crisp birdsong, or the all-black falcon, flapping its wings and flying into the distance.
"Xolth and Ylthar are still locked up in Area 51, so maybe they have to gamble."
Raxxus' eyelids drooped as he thought to himself.
In the strange three eyes, a fierce color flashed suddenly, and then it was well hidden.
Save people, get revenge, go home!
He repeated it in his mind.
A normal person, if he had gone through such a long prison life, I am afraid that he would have had a mental breakdown long ago.
Although Raxxus lived long enough, more than seventy years were also full of painful memories for him.
A lot of anger piled up in the bottom of my heart.
"Sir, there are still 1.4 kilometers to the destination, and it is expected to arrive in 10 minutes."
An armed member carrying an M16 rifle said in a loud voice.
"Roger! The whole team listens to the order, speed up! β
Sheridan shouted at the walkie-talkie and commanded in a deep voice, his grim cheeks expressionless, making it impossible to guess his inner thoughts.
βYes SirοΌβ
βGoοΌ GoοΌ GoοΌ β
Hundreds of armed men immediately changed their brisk walking to a running posture and marched forward.
Raxxus staggered along, apparently affecting the speed of travel.
βShitοΌ Don't grind, go fast! β
A gray soldier guarding Raxxus slammed the butt of his rifle on his back, swearing in his mouth.
'Poofββ! β
Raxxus's feet slipped and fell straight out, and he, who was already weak, struck completely now, lying on the ground and humming.
"Falk squid! Toby, you're so troublesome for labor. β
When Sheridan heard the movement, he turned his head and glanced at it, and then scolded.
"Sir, I suspect he is deliberately delaying the trip, so I urged him."
The gray man's eyes grunted, and he immediately thought of a reason.
"You! And you! Carry him along! β
Sheridan was well aware of the virtues of these subordinates, so he simply didn't bother to ask, but assigned two soldiers to carry Raxxus and continue walking.
The last kilometer of the mountain road was delayed for more than half an hour before finally arrived.
Raxxus' eyes twinkled on the stretcher, and he couldn't help but think back to more than eighty years ago, when he and two friends piloted a spaceship and traveled from one star to another in an attempt to find a habitable planet.
Unexpectedly, on the way, he encountered a terrible gravitational storm and meteorite flow, and finally crashed in the Colorola Canyon.
Energy depletion!
The powertrain is damaged!
At the same time, due to the lack of energy blocks, all equipment, including biological mechs, maintenance machine engineers, and short-range vehicles, were paralyzed.
Fortunately, the resource probe found that on the moon and stars not far away, there is an alternative fuel for Pickaxe-209, which can support the vehicle to turn on the low-energy operation mode.
As long as they successfully return to the F-72 galaxy 30 million light-years away, they will be able to purchase enough energy blocks and cosmic alloys at the relay station to repair the spacecraft.
But at that time, they didn't have a reliable flying machine to go to the moon star, so they pinned their hopes on Okashi.
Raxxus provides the core technology of energy upgrades, special alloys, interstellar navigation and protection, and borrows industrial and manufacturing equipment from beautiful countries to build a lander that can travel back and forth between the Earth and the Moon.
Raxxus wasn't defenseless, but Ocassi's camouflage was too good, and for six years, he did what they were told to do, upgrading the industrial base at any cost, just to build a spacecraft ahead of schedule.
Under such circumstances, Raxxus and the others couldn't help but relax their vigilance and gave a detailed introduction to the extraterrestrial world and the long lifespan of D-10 star lifeforms to the top management of the Kashiwa Palace, including Okashi.
You can easily live for more than 500 years!
This is simply full of infinite allure for a person of high power.
If the First Emperor had met Raxxus 2,000 years ago, there was a high probability that he would have made the same choice.
The difference between the two is that Ocasic studies the blood, DNA and telomeres of Raxxus and others in all aspects through bioscience and technology; If it falls into the hands of Emperor Qin, it is very likely to become a medicine primer for Xu Fu's alchemy.
"Open the door!"
Sheridan spoke suddenly, interrupting Raxxus's recollection.
On the mountain in front of me, there is a huge metal door, like any door in a science fiction movie, firmly embedded in the stone wall.
It is more than 30 meters high and about 80 meters long, which is extremely magnificent.
The surface is covered in a thick layer of dirt, and if you don't look closely, you can quickly spot the anomaly.
In fact, this mountain, which is more than 800 meters high and more than 2,000 meters wide, is the main structure of the spaceship.
Dust, sand, and lush trees are just a means of disguise.
Raxxus struggled to jump off the stretcher and said lightly, "Clean up the dust first." β
The beautiful country has been guarding the spaceship for decades, but it has been suffering from not being able to enter, and once the lord of the country even used a medium-yield nuclear bomb, but he still couldn't blow up the door of the spaceship.
This is also the main reason why Raxxus and others have survived safely for decades without being disassembled into parts.
"Do it!"
Sheridan nodded.
The rest of the armed men took out a sapper shovel and began to remove the dirt from the surface.
The cold wind at the bottom of the valley blew like a whimper, like the roar of a wild beast.
However, no matter how terrifying the animals are, they are also food delivery when they meet.
Even aliens like Raxxus can't withstand the power of heavy firearms, let alone those jackals, tigers and leopards?
The group was in full swing and sweating!
This amount of work is not low, with an area of more than 2,000 square meters, almost the size of five basketball courts.
Raxxus lowered his head, a hint of cunning flashed in his left eye, he actually knew the direction to open the curfew, and the reason why he tricked them was to drain these people's physical energy.
When people are tired, there are always times when they are not alert.
But he also knew very well that the team in front of him was only a security force on the surface, and on the ground not far from the valley, there was also a cutting-edge army of more than 20,000 people.
With 3,000 artillery pieces and tens of thousands of miniature short-range missiles, it is enough to crush the valley to the ground.
In addition, Raxxus also has two companions in Babbitt's hands, plus the double safety mechanism of electric handcuffs and electric shackles, there is no need to worry about Raxxus not cooperating.
Half an hour later, the mud at the foot of the mountain was cleaned up.
The light gray metal inside is exposed, and the whole is as smooth as a mirror, and there is no abnormality to be seen.
As Sheridan was about to set up the folding ladder and continue cleaning, he suddenly heard Raxxus say, "It's okay." β
I saw Raxxus slowly move forward, slowly raise his right hand, and press it against the flat metal plate.
No response!
One minute, two minutes, three minutes......
Just as Sheridan was about to get angry, the huge metal door suddenly shook, and a large chunk of sand fell down.
Some of them couldn't dodge, only to hear a cry of pain that made Raxxus feel happy.
"Bang Bang ββ!"
The metal plate split in two, moving in both directions, revealing the scene inside.
Sheridan was stunned for a moment, he was also a well-informed person, but the internal structure of this spaceship was completely beyond his expectations.
It's not as exquisite and luxurious as imagined, but too chaotic!
The parts of the respective instruments were scattered all over the ground, and the display screens on the console and instruments were also damaged.
"Can this garbage help us defeat the Shanhai Group?"
Sheridan secretly doubted.
As everyone knows, this spaceship was not so broken originally, but in order to build the Earth-Moon vehicle, a large number of spare parts were removed from it.
"Let's go to the main control room, there's a stellar energy shield device that can be activated as long as you fill enough pickaxe-209."
Raxxus calmly explained.
At the beginning, it was the gravitational storm that caused the energy shield to malfunction and not be successfully opened, so that the spacecraft suffered a wave of meteorite strikes.
"You lead the way!"
Sheridan replied.
Immediately after saying that, five people split up and followed closely behind Raxxus, the muzzle of the gun faintly pointed at his head and back.
Raxxus obediently walked in front, leading the team and walking straight towards the main control room.
The spaceship was the size of a mountain, and it took five or six minutes to walk through three access curfews before everyone came to a spherical control room.
The silver-white walls, like a pool of glowing mercury water, seem to be still flowing, and it looks a little weird, and people can't help but feel hairy.
The interior space is more than 1,000 square meters, and there is a black box two meters wide, 80 centimeters high, and 30 centimeters thick on a transparent platform in the middle area.
"Whoa! That's it! β
Raxxus pointed and said lightly.
"How do you take it off?"
Sheridan asked in a deep voice, he had to be extremely careful in a strange and unknown environment.
"I can take it off."
Raxxus stepped forward and motioned for himself to open the shield of the platform.
"Click"!
A dull mechanical sound, loud and sound!
Sheridan subconsciously took a step back and gave the armed man beside him a look, and the subtext was extremely obvious.
As soon as Raxxus's anomaly is discovered, he immediately activates the electromagnetic wave transmitter and controls the other party.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
ββ¦β¦β
A similar sound sounded four times in a row, and the huge square glass cover finally showed a trace of loosening.
"It's too heavy, you guys come along!"
Raxxus patted the glass cover on the high platform and said in a calm tone.
"You guys look at him! The rest of the people go open the glass cover! β
Sheridan squinted his eyes and calmly gave the assignment.
The transparent and crystalline glass cover, I don't know what material it is, more than 60 sturdy armed personnel, it took a lot of effort to move the cover three or five meters away.
The remaining dozen or so people struggled to drag the black box down.
"Bang Bang ββ!"
Slammed into the metal floor!
"This is the place where the energy block is placed, and it can also be used to put the pickaxe-209, which is extracted and released, and the energy shield produced should be able to withstand the close-range impact of nuclear energy weapons."
"With this thing, it is equivalent to having absolute defense."
Raxxus explained slowly, cooperating throughout the whole process, without any abnormalities.
Sheridan breathed a sigh of relief, and the task was half completed.
"Divide 20 people, carry things out of the spaceship first, and I will immediately contact two gunships and let the people of the Aerospace Brigade handle it."
Sheridan said in a loud voice.
Seeing this, Raxxus stood quietly aside, but his position was very close to the high platform.
Five armed men, two with electromagnetic transmitters, and three others, all armed with automatic rifles with black holes, stared at him staring straight at him.
"Even if I die, I don't want to go back to my cramped cage."
Raxxus said coldly to himself.
On the other side, Sheridan was urging the Troop Region to send reinforcements, while the others were diligently moving the black boxes.
Here's your chance!
Behind Raxxus's buttocks, an arm-thick tail vertebrae quietly protruded, wrapped in a layer of miserable white skin, like the tail of a large mouse.
The more you get to the end, the more pointed it is!
The last section is only the thickness of an adult's thumb!
Under the cover of his thin body, Raxxus controlled his tail, nimbly reached into the glass cover, and tapped lightly on the black countertop.
A dark grid appeared in an instant!
It contained a palm-sized bottle of red liquid, flowing spiritually like a living thing.
Raxxus exhaled heavily, opening the silver-white mouth with his tail.
'Whoosh'!
The red liquid, as if smelling the most delicious scent, followed Raxxus's tail and surged upward, silently burrowing into his body.
A minute later.
In the depths of Raxxus's pupils, a demonic red suddenly appeared, and his body began to tremble slightly.
"Sir, there is a situation!"
One of the armed men shouted suddenly.
When Sheridan turned around, he saw Raxxus shivering, half-kneeling on the ground.
On the skin of the fiasco, there was a faint hint of a strange red.
"Turn on the electromagnetic wave transmitter!"
Sheridan frowned, meaning that something was wrong, and hurriedly commanded.
ββββββ
Thousands of miles away in Shanghai, the Convention Center Building.
Standing quietly on both sides of the Pujiang River, the bright red flags hunted in the wind, and the bustling crowd poured into the Huaxia Hall on the first floor.
It has only been a few months since the press conference hosted by Zhou Haifeng.
What people didn't expect was that Shanhai Group moved so fast, and it had already collected enough helium-3 from the moon and star, and improved the cold nuclear fusion process again.
The annual production capacity of Changxingdao Power Station has soared tenfold!
When Meng Lao, Qin Lao and others entered the venue, Shi Shiran stepped into the venue, the reporters understood that they still underestimated the influence of this press conference.
The person in charge of the Shanghai Power Supply Division cautiously followed behind a group of bigwigs, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
"1 kilowatt hour has dropped to 1 cent, Meng Lao is really bold!"
He gritted his teeth and sighed with emotion. (End of chapter)
