Those are huge tentacles winding and growing on the ground like mountains.
Hao Ren can't remember how many daunting things he saw on the dream plane. The first time he saw it was in the underground of Holletta. The little branch roots exposed by the eldest son of the "juvenile body" still shocked everyone, but then more and more of this thing was discovered, and it covered almost all ecological planets in the dream plane—even including Those pre-ecological planets that are completely dead. The drone swarms are expanding day and night in this universe, so reports of the discovery of traces of the eldest son also come to Hao Ren like snowflakes every day. These powerful creatures that live inside the planet and are designed to maintain the ecosystem were once a dream. The nanny and gardener of all races on the plane, but today has become the nightmare of this universe.
I didn't expect to see the thrilling tentacles here, on this unknown and mysterious planet.
The tentacle grew in an arc around the edge of the forest. Its huge body like a mountain formed a natural boundary line. The forest stopped abruptly in front of it, as if captured by the majesty of this ancient creature. The data terminal quickly zoomed in on the details of the image, so Hao Ren saw that this tentacle actually grew out of a canyon, and after spreading for hundreds of kilometers on the surface, it plunged back into the ground. Around the tentacles, there are many branch structures growing from the main whiskers. A considerable part of these branch structures go deep into the forest and have grown into one with the forest. Their ends reach out to the sky, forming the appearance of trees, which look similar to those in the forest. Normal giant trees are generally the same.
Probably one-third of this forest was formed by the firstborn's tentacles.
"Damn it..." Hao Ren almost swears when he saw the tentacles, "This thing really lingers."
Without any surprise, Lily entered the hair-exploding state again. She froze with a big fluffy tail, her eyes were rounded, staring at the tentacle on the holographic projection, and suddenly exclaimed: "It... it seems to be move!"
"Yes, there is a slight creep phenomenon. It is far away so I can't feel it yet, but this machine thinks that if you stand near this tentacle, you will definitely feel continuous weak earthquakes... This thing is active status."
"I suddenly feel that this planet cannot stay forever!" Hao Ren stared, "Notify Nolan immediately, start the lullaby program first, and at the same time speed up the maintenance of the engine system - slow down all other repair projects, at least restore it to the point where it can be recovered The ability to operate in low Earth orbit! We must take the initiative!"
The lullaby program, a kind of mental interference technology that can effectively weaken the nervous activity of the eldest son and suppress its perception ability, has become Hao Ren's favorite method when he acts in the dream plane since it was discovered in Holletta and its effectiveness was verified. One of the important "safety measures", Hao Ren successfully improved the efficiency of this system and reduced its technical difficulty after conducting joint research with Zhuomu (Zhuomu's main task is to be responsible for the research). The crystal nucleus research station realized the mass production of the lullaby system. Now every mothership-level UAV unit is equipped with a lullaby device. After finding traces of the eldest son in the Dream Plane, it is already a standard workflow to take pictures with mental interference regardless of life or death. On... Of course, it is also a set.
Fortunately, the lullaby device belongs to the supporting facilities of the shipboard laboratory, and it is well protected. After the spacecraft fell, it was only slightly impacted, and it can be used at this time.
But a lullaby is not a panacea. When you are a neighbor of a creature like the eldest son (here specifically refers to the crazy eldest son), you can’t expect the other party to sleep well enough, so the smartest way is to wait for the spacecraft engine to ignite and fly there first. Go to the sky—even if the deep space is blocked by a divine storm, at least it is safe within the scope of the planetary system. A spaceship flying in space is much more at ease than landing on the belly of the eldest son!
Nolan quickly received Hao Ren's order and the information sent back by the data terminal. Miss Jianniang knew that the matter was urgent, so she immediately reset all the energy rationing, and put all the limited output of the power furnace into the lullaby device. and engine maintenance procedures.
On the other hand, Hao Ren heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that the lullaby device had started successfully. He looked towards the end of the forest with a serious expression. I thought it was an ordinary mountain, but now I realized that it was the tentacles of the eldest son: "There is an eldest son here... Could it be that the original civilization on this planet was given by the eldest son..."
Just in the middle of speaking, a sudden roar from the distant sky interrupted his words.
The roar sounded from far to near. It sounded as if some kind of huge aircraft was flying across the sky. Hao Ren and his party looked up in astonishment, only to see six strange iron-gray aircraft forming a formation flying towards this side!
Fly-walk-device!
Lily jumped up at the time: "Landlord, landlord! There are still survivors on this planet!! Look at their aircraft!"
"I saw it, I saw it." Hao Ren agreed and pushed Lily down. At the same time, he observed the appearance of the flying machines in the sky with great surprise and curiosity: they had a relatively thick shape, like two metals arranged side by side. Structurally, shuttles do not look like highly efficient flying devices in the atmosphere, but they have amazing speed and agility: they constantly change their positions and subtle headings in the air, which reflects excellent attitude control capabilities.
These things may have anti-gravity technology.
The six aircrafts were arranged in an arrow-like formation, flying across the sky with an indomitable momentum. When they flew over the heads of everyone, Lily saw that these things were full of vicious missile launchers and turrets, and there was something suspected of a giant bomb hanging between the two shuttle-like structures.
This menacing formation seemed to have completely ignored Hao Ren and his party on the surface. They passed over the ruins of the city and continued to fly towards the other side of the forest. At the end of their course, there was the eldest tentacles exposed on the surface .
Hao Ren seemed to have guessed the purpose of these war weapons.
Sure enough, the six aircraft rushed straight to the tentacles, and during a beautiful accelerated dive, they began to throw missiles and artillery fire. At the end of the forest, large clouds of explosion smoke rose up, and the faint sound of explosions After that, it spread to everyone's ears.
Of course, the tentacles would not sit still. Hao Ren didn't see how the eldest son counterattacked. He only saw three of the six flying machines suddenly crashing into an invisible wall and shattered in mid-air without warning. , and the remaining three aircrafts responded immediately to this situation: they pulled up to an almost ninety-degree elevation angle with astonishing response and agility, accelerated and dropped bombs at the same time, and the fuselage The large aerial bomb suspended in the middle was thrown towards the winding tentacle on the ground.
In just a few seconds, another aircraft collided with the invisible force field created by the eldest son, and it exploded into pieces in the air.
The heavy aerial bomb fell to the ground, and in the process split hundreds of light balls emitting dazzling white light, followed by an earth-shattering explosion and a burst of white-hot light that soared into the sky.
Those bombs were obviously not ordinary bombs: a violent reaction occurred the moment they touched the tentacles, and a series of plasma "vacuoles" burst out from the bomb point, forming hundreds of light spheres with a radius of hundreds of meters. The heat is astonishing, it can almost instantly vaporize all substances within the range, and after the light sphere dissipates, only spherical pits are left.
That tentacle was protected by some kind of energy field, but it was still riddled with holes in an instant, and the area around the tentacle was directly razed to the ground.
Seeing the scene from afar and the clearer images captured by the data terminal, Hao Ren suddenly thought of the "blank area" he saw when looking at the edge of the city. The blank area seemed to have been bombed recently. …
I see.
After dropping the bombs, the remaining two aircraft did not try to turn back and continue to expand the results of the battle, but kept pulling up and accelerating and continued to fly towards the distance. It seemed that their combat goal had been achieved.
The data terminal floated to Hao Ren's side: "Initiate communication or what?"
"Just follow their signals." Hao Ren shook his head, "Don't communicate rashly—it's hard for races that are in close contact with the eldest son to be free from the spiritual pollution of the latter, and even if they are still resisting, they may not be in good spirits. Not normal, you need to be cautious when contacting this kind of race. If possible, it is best to contact a few locals alone without attracting the attention of the other party, and give them a san check before considering the contact plan with their race. "
"Understood..." The data terminal floated up and down, "Ah, this machine has intercepted their communication signals."
"Oh?" Hao Ren raised his eyebrows, "Translate and see what they are talking about."
"Interpreting..." The data terminal paused for two or three seconds, and soon completed the decoding, "The content of the communication is as follows:
N-3 called Zenith, the bombing mission was completed, and the target achievement rate was 72%.
Zenith received it and asked about the loss.
N-1, N-2, N-5, N-6 lost, N-4 secondary engine damaged, N-3 bilateral turrets overloaded.
Zenith received it, and the formation returned, repaired and replenished ammunition, and prepared for the next bombing mission.
Received by N-3, N-4, execute climb procedure..."
Hao Ren blinked: "Is this the end?"
"That's all," the data terminal replied, "otherwise, what else can there be—sing a rap with the base station after performing combat missions? This kind of report has a strict format and is required to be brief."
Hao Ren rubbed his chin: "I know that. I just hoped to hear some more useful information... Okay, now we at least know that these aircraft come from a base called 'Zenith'."
