Guided by Lily's good nose, Hao Ren found the first fragment of the crashed aircraft.
It was a large piece of bent and twisted metal plate and an oval-shaped equipment compartment that didn't see any function. They were entangled with many burnt cables and tubes, exuding a pungent burnt smell. Although the high temperature on the wreckage has faded after a day and night of cooling, it is clear that it has experienced a fairly violent explosion and combustion before, which makes its shell almost molten.
The five or six-meter-long fragment fell between two huge broad-leaved trees. Its fall created an impact crater with a radius of about ten meters. The two broad-leaved trees beside the pit were in completely different states: one of the trees had Killed by the high temperature and shock wave, the trunk broke off in the middle, and the crown was burned, leaving only some carbonized branches, while the other tree was lush and lush, still standing upright on the edge of the pit, and even its branches and green leaves were full of vitality. It's like just growing.
There is no doubt that the second tree is something derived from the tentacles and twigs of the eldest son protruding from the surface. It is the nerve point used by the huge and terrifying creature inside the planet to perceive the outside world—Standing on the edge of the impact crater, Hao Ren He knew that he had fallen into the eyes of the eldest son.
But as Zhuo Mu said, when an eldest son grows to maturity (the usual standard is that he can use his tentacles to protrude from any place on the surface when he is lying in the center of the earth), his perception will change. The "fine microbes" around the tentacles will no longer attract his attention, unless the microbes produce a powerful energy response capable of destroying the main tentacles, or emit some special, irritating or provocative aura.
Of course Hao Ren would not do that, so he restrained his breath together with the other three, walked carefully to the impact crater, and began to inspect the cooled aircraft wreckage.
"This should be a radar cabin. The metal plate on top is part of the radar cabin's shield." The data terminal floated next to Hao Ren's head, scanning the wreckage of the aircraft with a blue beam of light. "The inside is completely destroyed... look The impact before it came was very strong, and every part of the aircraft was greatly squeezed. The tentacles of the eldest son should have released something similar to a stagnant force field, so the aircraft that was diving at full speed decelerated from extremely high speed to zero in an instant. No vehicle with an inertial stabilizer can handle this level of speed change."
"There should be other wreckages around here, maybe there will be ones in better condition than this one," Hao Ren looked up and looked around, "I remember that one aircraft was destroyed during the bombing process, and there were some wrecks before it was destroyed." The obvious deceleration action, its save state should be more complete."
Lily wrinkled her nose: "No matter how complete it is, it will fall off after being blown up."
But even so, the husky girl is a good dog... a good dog monster is still very dedicated when looking for things. Her nose is even better than the simple version of the data terminal radar in this environment. Soon, more wreckage crash sites were found.
There were more falling objects than expected. If every screw that fell was counted, Hao Ren felt that the four aircraft might have disintegrated into five-figure pieces and fell in this area. The dispersal range may even exceed a radius of ten kilometers, but not every piece of debris is worthy of attention. What Hao Ren is looking for is the large debris that may be equipped with a cockpit.
If only the remains of the pilot could be found...
The second large wreckage they found fell into a depression hundreds of meters away from the radar cabin. This piece of wreckage was several meters larger than the radar cabin. The ruptured tube and several sintered and deformed coil structures, this messy mess is tangled together, sticking obliquely in the center of the depression. The moisture originally accumulated in the depression has been evaporated by the high temperature, leaving only a crack dirt land.
"This should be a weapon module, it looks like a railgun part," the data terminal analyzed again, "the acceleration track should be more than these, but they are the only ones left. Let's see what this machine is …high-temperature superconductors, decently efficient capacitor banks, and… um? A projectile stuck at the end of a track slot? Not bad material.”
"Who knows what you say?" Mayue scratched his head, and his tail slid impatiently on the ground, "Tell me whether their weapon technology is high or not, so that you can see the strength of the survivors." Is it on an industrial scale?"
"The entry-level technology of the railgun is not a very high-end thing. The people on earth are almost tossing it out, but the mature railgun is definitely not at the same level as the early verification machine," the data terminal bumped into the wreckage. "The only thing left of the wreckage is this kind of strong but non-technical part. The really high-tech structure has been burned with high temperature. This machine can only be analyzed from the material, and the means of these survivors are not bad. Yes, such a railgun can penetrate anything humans have made so far with a single shot, including the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier and the Khufu Pyramid. Of course, this machine thinks that the plasma bombs they dropped during the bombing yesterday are powerful Bigger, at least when dealing with monsters like the eldest son whose tentacle can reach hundreds of kilometers, bombs are more effective than naval guns."
"To manufacture and maintain such a powerful large-scale aerial machine, there must be a complete and stable industrial system," Hao Ren touched his chin, "and this industrial system must have the ability to continuously mass-produce these weapons for consumption , This needs raw materials to support. A total of six aircraft appeared in yesterday's attack, and only two returned alive in the end. I believe that this kind of loss is absolutely very common in the process of confronting the eldest son, and it will even be more serious... "
"Survivors are not just as simple as surviving. They must at least have the complete strength of a country, both in terms of industry and population. They must have raw material production sites and factories, as well as ancillary industries and population bases that support these things. And all of this requires a territory that should not be too small, otherwise the ancient weapons left over from the last civilization will not be enough to survive the past few thousand years," Vivienne nodded, "The people on earth who have been beautiful for a generation or two The 'ancient gods' of the extermination of the human species are a ready-made example."
Hao Ren beckoned to the autonomous machines that were patrolling the periphery, and told them to start cleaning up the wreckage of the railgun in front of them and collect the debris scattered around. These self-discipline machines are the batch Nolan modified last night. Although some of their tentacles are equipped with laser rifles and protective force field generators, the remaining tentacles can still complete basic engineering operations.
Hao Ren felt that it was indeed necessary for him to permanently transform a batch of autonomous machines into this half-combat, half-assist model, especially when exploring a mysterious planet full of dangers like this—maybe he could give this kind of transformation a new name called Frontline Universal
"Collect all the larger debris," Hao Ren casually explained to Vivian next to him while directing the autonomous machine, "The laboratory on the spaceship is still usable, so it can be brought back for Nolan to use the onboard analysis host Research research."
The collected wreckage was carefully sorted, packed into storage containers and put into Hao Ren's portable space that seemed never to be filled, while Lily went to the depths of the jungle to search for other fragments.
After a while, Hao Ren suddenly heard a gunshot in the woods, and at the same time, Lily exclaimed shortly, "Wow?!"
"I'm going... that guy is in trouble!"
Hao Ren yelled, turned his head and ran towards the direction of the sound, followed by Wu Yue and Vivian.
But when they were halfway through the run, they saw Lily running out of the woods vigorously, jumping up and down while running, shouting: "Landlord, landlord! I saw someone! I saw someone! They are still looking at me Shoot!"
Seeing the husky girl so alive and kicking, Hao Ren's heart could be put back in his stomach just now, but then he was stunned: he was so happy after being shot, this guy really was killed by someone Are you so happy
And she found the surviving pilot? !
"Are you not injured?" Hao Ren first looked the husky girl up and down, "I heard you calling just now."
Lily raised her arm: "A little bit of skin trauma, mainly because it happened too suddenly and I didn't react. When I saw the bullet, it was not easy to dodge, so I had to block it with my arm. It is said that the guns of aliens are better than those of earthlings." Awesome, I thought I could catch a bullet..."
Hao Ren glanced at the rather scary wound on Lily's arm, muttered that this husky is really generous, and then pushed her towards Wu Yue: "Wu Yue, heal her."
Nangong Wuyue summoned a water ball with a healing effect to wrap around Lily's wound, and the gunshot wound began to squirm and heal immediately. Seeing that Lily's injury was not serious, Hao Ren turned his head to look in the direction the other party came from: "just in front?"
"It's not far ahead, but the guy seemed to faint after he shot me. I think the guy was seriously injured..."
Under Lily's instructions, the group quickly found the crash point in the dense forest.
The largest fragment of the aircraft crashed here, and the plants near the crash site showed signs of being severely burned by the fire. A pile of messy metal wreckage lay quietly on the burned out circular space. Seeing this scene, Hao Ren's first reaction was how could anyone survive such a tragic crash
Then he saw the "survivor" in the middle of the wreckage.
It was a woman, or at least a "female" judging from her body shape. She lay lifelessly on her side among a pile of twisted pipes and metal. It has disappeared, and there is still a black weapon in the right hand - that should be the gun that injured Lily, and the lower body of this woman is empty, and her waist has been blown to pieces. Only a few broken cables poke their heads out of the break, and the occasional spark jumps out.
This is what Lily means by "survivor".
Vivian carefully looked at the broken waist of the woman who seemed to be a robot, and turned her head to give Lily a white look: "Well, the 'injury' is indeed quite serious. I suspect you didn't even realize that this is a robot."
"I didn't see it clearly before," Lily scratched her hair, "suddenly a shot was fired at me, and I just focused on the trajectory of the bullet flying over..."
