The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 1578: Forced landing

Views:

The low-hanging night shrouded this nameless planet. The flames of civilization had disappeared from the surface of the planet for many years. The wildly overgrown virgin forests and vines had long since reoccupied the land that was once covered by metal and cement. The towering high-rise buildings thousands of years ago Turned into a jagged steel skeleton, bridges collapsed into the debris of canyons and river beds, and even the various immortal buildings that were once regarded as miracles could not be truly immortal—they collapsed in the jungle, lying on the ground Deep in the yellow sand, submerged under the ocean, only some desolate ruins emerged from their collapsed places, pointing to the sky like the bones of giants.

And on these desolate skeletons, moss and vines have covered all surfaces, and the green that represents life makes these lifeless and cold ruins seem to have a more prosperous feeling-after civilization fades, there is no longer the prosperity of human participation.

The faint glow from the two bright moons sprinkled from the sky, bringing some light to this world that is no longer illuminated by lights. The world under the moonlight is quiet, and only the wind blowing can be heard in the ruins of buildings covered by plants. Through the sounds of various holes and cracks, occasionally some short screams and rustling sounds came from the corners of certain plants, which were predators and small animals active at night fighting for the survival of the fittest.

But such a quiet night was suddenly broken.

Over the ruins of a city that was almost completely engulfed by the forest, the glow cast by two rounds of bright moons suddenly trembled, and the sky full of stars was like a pool of water being blown. In the vortex of the vortex, a series of flashes suddenly erupted, and then a huge thing rushed out from the most severely twisted place—this is a silver-white spaceship, it has thick and tough lines, and the blue energy veins are in it. The lower half of the spaceship was flickering, and the second half of the spaceship was billowing with thick smoke. Metal fragments and sparks were thrown out like blood and internal organs spewing from the body of a giant beast. The ship adjusted its attitude in the air, and it seemed that the main functions were still under control, but then it seemed that some equipment below it was overloaded, and some armor plates and mechanical structures left the hull after a new series of explosions. , while the spaceship itself tilted, drawing a large arc and slowly falling towards the southeast of the earth.

During the whole process, the thunderous bangs never stopped, all kinds of wild animals living among the trees and ruins were awakened by the loud noise and fire in the sky, and rushed out of their hiding nests desperately. And ran straight to the nearest water source: It seems that these animals are not the first time to face this kind of fire and explosion from the sky, they have quite experienced to choose the direction of refuge that can improve the chance of survival the most.

However, the spaceship did not explode above their heads, nor did it drop any explosives from the sky. It just took a very exaggerated trajectory, lowered its altitude and tried to slow down its speed. Finally, it landed—or the place where it fell was already in the Beyond the ruins of the city, it was a flat wasteland.

Not long after the spaceship fell, there was a slight tremor on the ground, and then there was a loud noise. A group of wild animals who had run to the water's edge or even hid in the water raised their heads tremblingly. They found that there was no follow-up disaster, so Quite calmly returned to his lair.

It seems that this kind of thing is not unfamiliar to them...

The vibration during the "landing" was not as strong as imagined. Although the inertial stabilization device of the spacecraft was seriously overloaded, it still slowed down the impact force when it touched the ground. The face is much lighter. But even though the landing was fairly stable, the spirits of everyone on the bridge experienced a super serious tremor. After all, watching a piece of land suddenly appear in front of them and zoom in quickly is an exciting enough experience, especially This is especially true for a few guys who usually don't go to heaven—such as the Nangong brothers and sisters and Gun.

Lily had just recently had the experience of skyrocketing 90,000 miles and standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun, so she seemed much calmer than others.

She even had time to stroke the fur of her own tail after crawling out of the ground.

"Are... to the ground?" Nangong Wuyue poked her head out of the ball of her tail cautiously, her eyes seemed to be a little foggy, "I don't think it's shaking anymore..."

Hao Ren nodded while checking the damage report of the spacecraft: "Good news, we landed smoothly."

"You call this process of going from outer space to the surface of a star a landing?" Nangong Sanba muttered with lingering fear while helping Wuyue untie her tail, "I just thought I was going to die..."

Hao Ren curled his lips: "Well, we crashed safely, at least with both feet on the ground."

The projection device on the console flickered a few times, and then a slightly distorted image appeared, shaking in the air for a few seconds before it gradually became clear: this is Nolan. The spaceship consciousness twitched his mouth: "I appreciate your cold humor, but as the person involved in the crash, my whole body hurts now."

"You're back to function so quickly? That just saves me checking the report—how's the ship doing?"

While asking Nolan about the situation of the spaceship, Hao Ren bent down and grabbed a fluffy tail that was trembling under his chair, and pulled it out like a furball with all his strength: "Mayue, check Check if this silly cat is injured, I think she may have knocked her head."

Nolan's image shook, and he completed the initial self-inspection after a while: "The situation is a bit bad... We were blocked once during the leap, and were bombarded by a divine shock wave that was no less than the psionic main cannon. All the shield systems are scrapped, the armor structure is still there, but the charging module is burnt and needs to be recovered slowly, the jump engine is finished, physically damaged, the navigation host is down, restarted twice without success, and there may be physical damage. In addition In addition, the power furnace is still running, but there is a problem with the energy output. I need to shield two-thirds of the lines and concentrate the energy on the central host and maintenance system. The fire control system can still be used, but the weapon array cannot be connected. Line, main conventional engine... no main conventional engine, something flew out when we fell, I just found out it was my engine... "

After talking about a lot of bad news, Nolan shook his head: "Currently the best condition is the laboratory section and the living area, because they are at the core and have a separate energy shielding layer, but they cannot let the I'll fly again..."

Hao Ren's frown became tighter and tighter. What he heard was almost the worst news, which made him interrupt Nolan's words: "Other than that? Is there any good news?"

"Yes, it seems that we have really gotten rid of that divine storm," Nolan nodded, "It seems that your judgment is correct, the divine storm is limited to the outer space, it only seals off space, and it is safe on the surface of the planet. "

"Well, it's good news." Hao Ren sighed, "Can your damage be repaired?"

"All damage to this ship can be repaired. In theory, even if it is blown up and only the steering wheel is left, just find a few self-disciplined machines to weld it for a while, and it can continue to take you to the cosmic waves at superluminal speed, and even if There is no self-discipline mechanism for maintenance, and this ship also has the ability to restore itself as a whole." Nolan's voice became a little more energetic, as if her host system was slowly recovering, "but the problem is that it takes time—even the engine and Part of the power center is out of order, this is the most difficult to fix, and it will take at least a week for me to fly again."

"As long as it can be repaired," Hao Ren sighed, "It's better than waiting for the drone swarm to rescue him. But even if it's repaired, we'd better not go to the deep space rashly. In the case of storms, it is probably only relatively safe within the scope of the planetary system."

"I don't need you to tell me," Nolan's holographic image lay on the operating table, "Hiss—it hurts... I won't have a psychological shadow and dare not go to the sky, right? It would be too funny for a ship to have this problem Already... I also discussed with a bunch of bastards in the Azadham civilization circle to go sailing together in two months."

Hao Ren gave her a white look: "What the hell is the psychological shadow? How can you produce this with a shipboard main engine. And you still want to go sailing at this time?"

Nolan pouted and remained silent.

Hao Ren looked around the bridge, and he found that the self-healing mechanism of the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace had begun to work: some damaged places on the bridge were emitting a faint gleam, and the cracks on the metal wall were wriggling and slowly healing , as if flesh and blood were regenerated.

But not every place can regenerate as fast as here, the engine and power center can only come slowly.

Before Nolan can take off again, he must first understand the surrounding situation, at least know what kind of place he has forced to land.

Most of the spacecraft's functions are more or less damaged, and it is impossible to cope with space missions, but because of a strong and solid core section, it can still be used as an outpost after "landing" on the ground , at least its integrated computing center, survival module and solid armor are still usable.

Radar is needed to explore the environment. The main radar array of Giant Turtle Rock is specially prepared for space missions, but she also has a set of devices specially used to scan the surface environment of planets in the atmosphere. This device can be modified slightly Used to detect environmental data around the crash site - just enough.

"It's an ecological planet, fortunately, the environment is also very comfortable. The oxygen content is higher than that of the earth, and the air pressure is also high, but it is not a problem for you," Nolan reported the results of the preliminary scan, "No threat was detected It seems that there are no such things as prehistoric monsters on this planet, and it is a good place to open up wasteland and farm."

Hao Ren felt that he shouldn't download a lot of online novels on the spaceship host, and Nolan obviously read them all...

"When I fell down before, I seemed to see something like the ruins of a city," Lily raised her hand, "We left it behind."

"You read that right," Nolan released a few holographic projections, which showed the wreckage of a building that was almost completely submerged in plants in the dense jungle. It was obscured by debris, but it was easy to distinguish those things that were obviously not natural products, "the remains of some artificial things, maybe there will be interesting things there."

Hao Ren stroked his chin: "Looks like it's time to organize an investigation team..."
