Chapter 19: Crisis Strikes
Because of the presence of Xingchen, an outsider, although everyone was dissatisfied with Du Ziteng's words, they still stood up and saluted the military salute, indicating their obedience.
Xingchen, who was sitting, glanced at the white young man casually, and although he couldn't perform the illusion sound path now, he could still see the general thoughts in the person's mind through the subtle performance of the person. The white young man's face also looked helpless, but for a moment the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
After seeing through this obvious performance, Xingchen didn't say anything.
After Du Ziteng finished speaking, he gave another order, "No. 3, immediately edit an urgent email." ”
The female electronic synthesized voice came: "Mail, rescue, second-level emergency, target person: Flying Dragon Shipborne Army Reserve Officer, Captain Lu Xingchen." Retinal information collection. "A metal tube sticks out of the ceiling, and after the infrared scanning light scans the retina, the metal tube retracts. "The collection is successful, the message is about to be sent, at this time, this site is 720 million kilometers away from the headquarters of the four starfish, and the mail is expected to be delivered to the headquarters in 40 minutes, whether to send it?"
Du Ziteng said: "Send." He also has infrared scanning light on his own glasses, scanning the retina.
The female synthesized voice sounded again, "Voice verification successful." Retinal validation was successful. Email encryption... The encryption is successful, and the email is being sent,... Sent successfully, spare parts are being sent... The sending was successful. ”
Du Ziteng ordered again: "No. 3, prepare an access card for Lu Xingchen to pass through the ordinary area." ”
"Roger. After a while, a mechanical arm stretched out from the ceiling, holding a blue access card. Xingchen took it away, put it in his breast pocket, and stood up and arched his hand to Du Ziteng: "Thank you Second Lieutenant Du, but it is disrespectful." As he spoke, he accepted the access card.
Du Ziteng waved his hand, "You're welcome." Captain Lu, you just heard that it takes forty minutes for the mail to arrive, and it will take at least eighty minutes to wait for a reply. During this time, if you want to walk around, let Lao Zhang accompany you. ”
Xingchen smiled, "That's great, I'm very interested in the fresh vegetables just now, and I want to see your growing area." Uncle Zhang, who was wearing a blue combat uniform, walked up and saluted a military salute, "Sir, please come with me." ”
After the two left, Du Ziteng didn't stay any longer, returned to his room, and ordered: "Apply for the permission of the Sky Eye immediately, I need to know what happened?" Ward Star is in the safe area of the Iron Eating Galaxy, and the security level of their sentry station is much lower than the alert circle at the edge of the Iron Eating Galaxy, according to the regulations, once there is an emergency, they must respond within ten minutes, and the situation can be judged within fifteen minutes to be qualified.
Now that they really encountered a situation, it took them more than an hour to figure out the situation here. He was once an excellent soldier, and he had a hard time about this matter.
After a while, the synthesized electronic sound sounded, "The Sky Eye signal cannot be detected." ”
When Du Ziteng heard this, he frowned, "Inform me of Lu Xingchen's movements at any time." ”
"Understood. ”
At this moment, the white young man in the metal hall got up and went to the bathroom, and said to the only closed toilet door, "Hey, buddy." I have one thing for you. ”
He only heard a bang, and then a voice sounded, "Brother, I'm not doing it, don't come in." ”
The white youth immediately roared, "I'm not interested in you, I'm talking to you about the corpse of the squid monster." ”
A voice came from the toilet door, "Brother, you're scared me to death." What happened to the squid monster?"
The white youth handed out his smart tablet, "This is what I secretly recorded, you can see it by looking at it." ”
After a while, an exclamation came from the toilet door, "My God, one hundred and ninety-nine yellow squid monsters and one blue squid monster." That person is so powerful, is it Donghai Kung Fu? I want to learn. ”
The white youth slapped himself on the forehead, "Dude, that's not what I mean. It's squid monster corpses, do you know what these corpses can do? As long as we report them, we can use them to get military merits and rewards, and even leave here and return to the four starfish to enjoy the real sunbath. ”
The toilet door opened, and the black young man walked out with a smart tablet, his face worried, "But these are all killed by the captain, and they have nothing to do with us." ”
The white young man smiled, "He killed, would anyone believe that a man killed two hundred squid monsters with a ray gun and was unharmed?"
The black youth shook his head, and the white youth continued, "So when we rescued him, we killed this group of squid monsters. ”
"But the second lieutenant doesn't agree, what should we do? We can't order Number Three to send an email. ”
"There is a provision that, in order to prevent the commander from acting arbitrarily, the computer system may be secretly ordered to send an impeachment message if more than half of the personnel of the sentry station are unanimous. My wife has promised to send you and your wife, this is a great wealth, can you do it?"
The young black man rolled his eyes and nodded, "Yes, of course." I've been on duty here for six years, and I'm almost suffocating. Let's go out and discuss. ”
The white young man immediately grabbed him and said, "You can't go out to discuss, the entire sentry station only has a washroom and a personal rest room without monitoring, it's better to discuss here." ”
The black young man turned slightly to look at the mosaic in the toilet bowl and said, "Then I'll call them in, you wait here." He said and left quickly.
As soon as he left, there was no cover, the stench came from the toilet, and the white youth was angry and directly insulted, but he could only pinch his nose and step forward to wash away a large pile of mosaics.
After a while, three figures walked in, and as soon as the black young man led by him came in, he fanned his nose and said in disgust: "Brother, the you pulled is so stinky, and I don't know how to turn on the fan." As he spoke, he turned on the ventilation fan.
There were two left, one disgusted, and the other felt that his face was dull.
The white youth couldn't explain clearly, and he was afraid that the two blacks would quit, so he could only glare at the black youth, and then discussed with the three of them how to fabricate the experience of killing the enemy.
Time passed, and soon it was more than an hour and thirty-five minutes before the message was sent.
"Stay on standby, the nearest help will arrive in twenty days. ”
Xingchen saw this reply email, and said in his heart: "Twenty days? absolutely not, the mission requires that you must reach the Four Starfish within two hundred and forty hours, that is, within ten days." Waiting for the rescue team, it is definitely too late. Just as he was thinking about looking at the white young man with a smug expression, he was no longer worried.
At this time, five million kilometers away from the third natural satellite, a huge black mothership is parked here. A middle-aged man in a white scientific research uniform in the cab looked at a piece of email that had just been intercepted on the smart tablet in his hand, titled "Ward Planet 3 Natural Satellite Sentinel Station Impeachment Email".
One of the key words is eye, "squid monster".
After reading the email, the middle-aged man ordered: "In order to prevent accidents, send a star pirate ship to deal with the sentry station on the third natural satellite." As soon as he finished speaking, four reminders in a row, and the middle-aged man shouted, "Wait a minute." "Send four more Star Pirate Ships to the One, Sixteen, Twenty-Seventh, and Fifty-Nine natural satellites to pull out the sentry station on them." And we will get the test stuff back as soon as possible. ”
The synthesizer sounded, "Yes, Dr. Yisheng." ”
After a while, the hatch on the huge black mothership opened, and five black star pirate ships with skull emblems flew out, and after moving away from the huge black mothership, the light on them shone and disappeared into five rays of light.
The hatch did not close, and a large number of unmanned spacecraft flew out, scattering towards Ward.
In the sky above the No. 3 natural satellite, after a dazzling flash, a black star pirate ship appeared, and 100,000 first-generation floats flew down and headed for the surface of the No. 3 natural satellite.
The float was originally created by a small drone with an intelligent program. As the technology matured, the second generation appeared and occupied the market, and the third generation of floats was initially greenhouse, which is currently owned by only a few people.
But it does not mean that the first generation of floats has completely lost its status, it was positioned as cannon fodder for space exploration by the original manufacturers, made of the cheapest materials, but with detection and self-detonation functions.
The price is low, and the first generation of floats has regained its market.
Soon 100,000 floats landed on the No. 3 natural satellite and began to spread along the surface, swarming every ground machine they encountered along the way.
At this time, Du Ziteng, who was staring at the pocket watch in his hand, suddenly heard a continuous alarm, he immediately put away the pocket watch and asked, "No. 3, what's going on?"
Electronic synthesized sound, "A large number of ground machines have lost contact, and it is suspected that they have been destroyed." ”
Du Ziteng said angrily: "Didn't I say that you should pay attention to the cosmic ion wind ......" He stopped suddenly as he spoke, because more than a dozen images appeared on his glasses, and countless generations of floats pounced.
Dare to use a generation of floats to wantonly destroy man-made machines, only star thieves. He immediately ordered: "No. 3, it's a star thief, immediately activate the highest alert, gather troops to prepare for battle, and send distress signals to other natural satellites." ”
"The danger level has been confirmed, and the highest alert has been activated. "The fortress on the sentry station began to deform, changing from square to hemispherical, a layer of laser barriers appeared, and many weapons rose from the ground within a three-mile radius.
"The soldiers have been notified. ”
"Strong electromagnetic interference was found and a distress signal could not be sent. ”
As soon as the camera turned, the room was empty.
In the hall, all eight people gathered here. The black youth listened to the shrill sirens and asked, "Chief Du, what happened?"
Du Ziteng's expression was serious, "It's a star thief." We ......" as he spoke, a vibration sounded.
Three's electronic synthesizer sounded, "The defense of the ground fortress is damaged, and the entrance is about to close." ”
Hearing this, the hearts of several people were cold, why did the star thieves have such a powerful attack power? In the midst of the piercing siren, several soldiers glanced at each other, and the white youth stood up and pointed at the stars, "You must have attracted it, first the squid monster group, and now the star thieves." ”
Xingchen smiled and said: "According to the law of the alliance, under the highest alert, the person with the highest rank in the sentry station has full command power, but my military rank cannot be confirmed for the time being, so it is still under the full command of Second Lieutenant Du." Three, am I right?"
Number Three replied: "Exactly." ”
The white youth picked up the ray gun and pointed it at the stars, "It's all your fault, you can't save yourself by saying anything." ”
Seeing this, Du Ziteng slapped the table, "What are you doing, it's not normal now, put down the gun for me." As soon as he finished speaking, the white woman took out a ray gun and pointed it at Du Ziteng, "Second lieutenant, I'm sorry." ”
Uncle Zhang immediately took out a ray gun and pointed it at the white woman, "Don't point the gun at the chief. As soon as these words came out, three more guns were raised. The black youth faced Uncle Zhang, the sister-in-law Zhang faced the black youth, and the black woman faced Sister-in-law Zhang.
Seeing this, Xingchen laughed, "It's really funny. Number Three, what does it mean to be in full command?"
"All troops, weapons, equipment and information can be mobilized. ”
"Yes, it's information. Xingchen said and looked at Du Ziteng, "Second Lieutenant Du, you should be able to view all the contact emails within two hours now, including the parts that you didn't have permission to view before." ”
Second Lieutenant Du nodded, "Indeed, but there are only four contact emails in two hours, and the emails with the headquarters, the Tianyan permission application email, and the distress email just now are all authorized by me." ”
Xingchen smiled, "Is there really only four?" as he said as he looked at the four white youths, a hint of strangeness flashed on the faces of the four soldiers.
Seeing this, Du Ziteng asked, "No. 3, within two hours, how many contact emails?"
"Five-of-a-kind. ”
"Show it. ”
Four black screens slowly appeared on the ceiling, and then when they lit up, five messages appeared. One of them was the "Ward Planet III Natural Satellite Sentinel Impeachment Mail", which was displayed.
Du Ziteng looked at the three words of squid monster and sighed: "I understand." I've already given a gag order, but you've reported it here for merit. As he spoke, he took out a small glass bottle and scolded angrily, "The person who made this controller has been nearby. You mentioned the corpse of the squid monster for your credit, but they intercepted and deciphered the email, and the star thieves out there must have come to kill it. As he spoke, he slapped his palm on the glass bottle, "If we fight again, we will definitely be wiped out." ”
The four of them glanced at each other, and three of them slowly lowered their guns, only the white young man was still holding the ray gun at Xingchen, his hand on the trigger, "No matter what, without him, this kind of thing would never have happened." As he spoke, he pulled the trigger, and a blue ray shot out, but it hit the metal chair, piercing the back of the chair.
A voice came, and the white youth had hit the metal wall and landed on the ground.
Xingchen stood in his place and said with a smile: "I want benefits, but you still blame me, I hate people like you the most." ”
The white woman put down the gun and raised it again, Xingchen pinched the barrel, folded it slightly, the barrel was bent, and he smiled: "Your husband is just unconscious, but now you shoot, you will explode and die." I have no ill will towards you. ”
Seeing Xingchen's amazing skills, although Du Ziteng had conflicts with the soldiers, he also looked at Xingchen vigilantly, "Genetically modified people, and what is your purpose?"
Xingchen slowly walked towards Du Ziteng, picked up the other party's right hand, picked up the metal ball in the blood and glass slag, and then said, "I said that I came from the ancient martial arts family. As for my purpose, it was supposed to rush to the front line as soon as possible, but now it is to send this thing to the Four Starfish as soon as possible, and some people have to pay the price. Saying that, he waved his hand, "Ah Qi, report the accident." ”
The float flew out, and "the troop carrier had 500 soldiers and six crew members, and after encountering an unknown attack, only 32 sleeping compartments were successfully ejected." ”
Hearing this, Du Ziteng reached out and touched the pocket watch in his arms, and then let down his guard and said: "We are with you, there is a life-saving airship here, which can take us to the No. 1 natural satellite, where there is a curvature spacecraft." But," he said, looking at the unconscious white youth, "it will be difficult for us to escape from this firepower." ”
Xingchen smiled, "I don't think so, the other party didn't directly smooth this place, and sent a star pirate ship, obviously trying to disguise this place as if it had been ransacked by the star thief forces." So they're going to send someone in, and that's when we're going to get out. Until then, though, we have to do a couple of things. First, you, Commander, hurry up and get to the infirmary to deal with your injuries, second, back up Three and keep the evidence, and third, set up a self-detonation program, this place is full of your dander hair and other residues, and if you don't want to be replaced by clones when you go back, you have to destroy everything here. ”
After hearing this, Du Ziteng smiled and said: "You are worthy of being a person from the highest university, Star Aviation Academy, you are more suitable to be a commander than me." Number three, do what he says. ”
The black youth hurriedly raised his hand, "I'm responsible for planting a bomb in a remote area." "When he was on duty with his wife, he went to many areas for excitement. In some remote areas, even if they self-detonate, it is difficult to reach them.
Du Ziteng waved his hand directly, "Go ahead! Come back and connect the bomb to the computer system." "Why the black youth did it, he was not interested at all. He left on his own and headed for the infirmary.
At this time, at the gate on the ground, a team of twenty people wearing tattered space suits were cracking the gate code. After a while, only a gas jet was heard, and the door opened, and the entrance was a passage, and at the end of the passage was a vertical elevator.
They destroyed the gate control system before they walked inside. As soon as they walked twenty meters, glass doors rose to block their path, and at the same time, an electronic synthesized voice sounded, "Please abide by the hygiene regulations and strictly enforce the disinfection ......"
There was a flurry of gunshots and the speakers destroyed. A strong man walks out of the line with a huge machine gun, and a storm of bullets appears, shattering glass doors. A group of twenty people walked in, and disinfectant sprayed out from time to time on the way.
They quickly controlled the vertical elevator to the sentry station, and watched the three passages in front of them directly divide into seven, seven, six, and three teams before they began to attack, and there were hundreds of first-generation floats in front of each team.
One of the teams, the control plate of the first generation of floats, suddenly flashed and returned to normal. The star thief holding the control tablet thought it was a technical glitch and didn't pay attention.
When they turned a few corners and entered a room, a figure fell from the ceiling and flashed rapidly, and seven people fell to the ground, killing six and wounding one.
Only the star thief holding the control tablet was still awake, he looked at the figure in a blue combat suit, and his voice was hoarse, "You can't run away." ”。
This figure is Xingchen, he waved his hand, and three figures appeared, and then said, "Second Lieutenant Du, he will hand it over to you." ”
As soon as the three of them dragged the living star thief away, a voice came from the control tablet, "Xiaoqiang, what's the matter with you? Why don't you have an image?"
Xingchen picked up the control tablet, pinched his throat, and said in a hoarse voice, "The equipment is drenched with a damn disinfectant, and I'm rushing to repair it." ”
After speaking, he instructed Ah Qi beside him: "Immediately connect to this controller and create a false image." ”
Ah Qi received. "Soon, the fake image was transmitted.
After a while, Du Ziteng walked out with the two of them, "I have collected some useful information......" As he was saying, the electronic synthesis sound of No. 3 sounded, "The escape control room program has been rewritten, and the life-saving airship is about to be launched." ”
