As early as the first time we saw this cathedral, we were very curious. This building is so unique in the world of ruins, not only because its clean and complete shell is out of place compared with the surrounding dilapidated assembled buildings. , also because this thing was identified by Sandora as being built before the great war hundreds of thousands of years ago, that is to say, this cathedral is a veritable ancient relic, not the aboriginal people here. The junk that the material assembled itself—that alone makes the cathedral so striking. Another thing that people care about is its internal structure, a place called a church, but there is nothing related to religion inside, no reliefs or murals, not even a single word related to God, here The most common thing is that you can see alloy walls and holographic screens like the inner corridors of battleships everywhere, and you will see an isolation cabin every other corridor. The moment it separated from the high ground and slowly lifted into the air, all doubts were solved...
Is this weird church really a spaceship
"Attention the members of the ship, the ship has left the fixed port, and now the whole ship is blocked, the ship will be separated from the external gravitational system, the artificial gravity system in the spacecraft is starting... the start-up is complete."
A soft but unemotional electronically synthesized female voice suddenly sounded in the room, just like the voice of the main engine on an ordinary spaceship, and when its voice fell, we felt a moment of weightlessness, and then everything returned to normal , this big iron mound that suddenly changed from a building to a spaceship seems to have cut off the gravitational connection between itself and the entire planet, and instead used its own gravity system to maintain the internal environment. Normally, a spaceship This kind of operation is taken to make a large attitude change in the near-earth environment.
I guessed right, just a few seconds after the church or the spacecraft activated the artificial gravity system, the obelisk-shaped "building" on the monitoring screen began to tilt slowly, changing from perpendicular to the ground to parallel to the ground, The previous cylindrical towers that were vertically attached to the steeple of the church also lifted off together with the church. At this time, they formed a cross shape perpendicular to each other, and were mounted on the bottom of the "church spaceship" like a pedestal. The bright blue A halo of colored energy diffuses from the four tips of the cross and the engine port at the bottom of the "church spaceship", like a layer of mist.
"The attitude of this ship has been adjusted, and the main part is running well. The output power of the reactor is lower than the theoretical value. Troubleshooting and resetting the system... The system settings are complete, and the reactor cannot be repaired. This repair plan is suspended. The ship has disengaged The final barrier is locked. It is estimated that the final barrier will enter the open state in 30 minutes. Warning, the scanning shows that the condition of the final barrier is abnormal, the response strength of the barrier shield is zero, and the structural integrity of the barrier is declining sharply. The captain of this ship recommends that the captain take the following measures immediately One of three operations: first, immediately return to the final barrier locking bolt, and the ship will initiate an emergency plan to reset the barrier. Second, immediately send a distress signal to the ship's upper-level information acceptance center and stay away from the final barrier, the success rate of this option The final interpretation right belongs to this ship. Third, please go to the captain’s lounge in Z-66 area immediately and write your will. This ship promises to keep your will properly but does not promise not to hand it over to the supervising troops. I wish you a pleasant journey Dear passengers and friends, for the safety of you and others, please bring your own luggage and items. Passengers with children... Error, I am very sorry passengers, due to the delay of the train, the next station... The oxygen synthesis plant has been successfully opened , the atmosphere of this planet... The ship has recorded the order, entered the standby mode, and the self-learning module is online... "
us:"… "
"I always feel like there's something wrong with this thing?"
My sister pointed to the console where Yoder was standing, and muttered in a low voice.
Sandora looked at Yoder dumbfounded: "I know what's going on, the main engine of this spaceship has been on standby for hundreds of thousands of years and has never been maintained, and now it's messed up...you can't keep talking about this Something muted?"
Yoder raised his hand in a particularly helpless manner, looking at the console that had completely changed: "I don't know what to do anymore, the previous generation of bishops didn't tell me that it would become like this..."
us:"… "
Well, sir, you can really surprise us.
"Friendly reminder from this ship: please pay attention to personal safety in flight status, please do not stick your hands or head out of the window during the superlight speed of the spacecraft to avoid danger... Passengers with children, please keep the children in the luggage properly... Long live the Legion! All Those who block the way are scumbags! Full firepower, in the name of the general, tear up their defensive barriers! Free and unlimited supply of food on the flight, please be careful to pick up your weapons and destroy these dirty low-level creatures!"
The room was completely disorganized, and the shipboard broadcast was extremely chaotic. Obviously, this ancient spaceship that had not been maintained for hundreds of thousands of years had a serious system error, and it was impossible to know where it went. It stands to reason that the military supplies made by the Xiling Empire should be able to support hundreds of thousands of years without any problems, but think about it, everything in this world has been baptized by war, even if we are riding a few hundred meters The long obelisk-shaped strange spaceship is obviously not a complete battleship. God knows which part of the spaceship its main engine is smoking.
"Well, it seems that you really don't know how to quiet it down, it seems that we can only do it ourselves." Sandora was in a bad mood by the messy radio in the air, and planned to use strong means to close it The on-board mainframe that has fallen into logical chaos, Yoder's expression changed, and he seemed to want to stop it, but someone had already taken action one step faster than him: Viska suddenly ran to the console in two or three steps, and kicked On a terminal, there was a "bang", leaving a small footprint five centimeters deep on the solid alloy plate: "Quiet!"
In terms of violent madness, the Pandora sisters are more mobile than Sandora, and compared to the restrained Pandora, Viska is a guy who thinks of what to do.
The insane and dreamlike shipboard radio in the room suddenly fell silent, but only a few seconds later, the synthesized female voice sounded again, with a high-octave scream: "Long live! Long live the general! This ship has heard your voice and is still alive!" I have your identification number! Are you home? Please order General, who do we kill this time? Is there a new world to be destroyed? Or is there a new game? Sorry General, the camera in front of you seems to be malfunctioning , can't see your face, please wait... "
The shipboard host was talking quickly, and before all of us could react, he had already said a lot of things, and then when I was about to step forward to ask the situation of Viska curiously, a small The small multifunctional probe rushed into the room with a roar, and hovered very close to Viska.
"Oh, oh, I see, I see, it's the general, it's good to see you again, what a familiar figure, I can see all of you from such a close distance..."
A gust of cold wind blew by, and everyone shivered involuntarily.
Pandora ran to Viska in two or three steps, and the two sisters unanimously raised their feet and beat the machine in front of the console. While walking, Viska yelled: "You talk too much, you talk too much, how many times do you talk?" You still talk so much after a hundred thousand years!"
After a while of flying around, the entire console has been turned into a mosaic under the violent training of Viska and Pandora, but the operation of the spaceship itself seems not to be affected at all. It seems that the control center of this spaceship should be somewhere else. The room that Yoder knew was probably just an auxiliary control room, and smashing the console here did not affect the operation of the spaceship itself.
Viska also vented his anger after punching and kicking. At this time, he blinked his confused red eyes and looked at the twitching holographic projection in mid-air: "By the way, who are you? I seem to know you?"
"Ahahaha!!" The neurotic shipboard AI suddenly let out a piercing laugh, which was completely different from the soft synthetic female voice just now, "Master General, it really is your style! It doesn't matter, this ship It is your most loyal car, let me check your schedule... ah, fight, fight, still fight, the schedule is completely unscheduled, we see who will fight who, okay, let me check the firepower bank... Wait Oh, my general, what happened?! Where is the firepower bank of this ship? Where is the core power furnace? Where is the berthing center of the battleship? Wait, why is this ship in such an ugly shell! This tiny body What is it, is this an insult to the honor of a soldier—”
"Viska, do you know this psychopath?"
Although I already guessed something from the insane speech of the shipboard AI, I stepped forward and patted Viska on the shoulder to confirm it myself.
"I... maybe... I met it a long time ago, it seems to be my flagship," Viska hit his head with a very distressed look on his face, "Brother, I can't remember, it is my flagship, but I Don't know what it's called... I lost it a long time ago, but... I never knew I had a flagship before."
"No matter what your previous flagship looked like, this spaceship, which is only a few hundred meters long, is definitely not what it used to be," Sandora looked at it. Although it is spacious, it is definitely not at the same level as the bridge of the empire's flagship. "It looks more like an escape pod."
"Ah, yes, the escape pod! I've been destroyed, I've been destroyed! This ship was shot, this ship was shot! The reactor is on fire, and the Ganaku is broken down!" The insane shipboard AI yelled Get up, "General, please board the escape tower, this ship is going to detonate the battlefield, haha, let's die together! Yahoo!!"
"Can this crazy guy of mine be quiet for a while?" Bingtis suddenly took out a mace and smashed one of the console terminals that had become a mosaic, "Kitty, tell this guy to shut up, I I'll give you half a catty of toffee."
"Kitten?" I was taken aback.
Bingtis pointed at Viska's eyes: "The nickname I just remembered."
Viska's attention was focused on the last half of Bingtis's sentence: "Toffee?"
Then, under the bribe of Toffee, the shipboard AI was forced to shut up.
"I said, can someone pay a little attention to this direction now?"
Just when we learned what was going on with this obelisk-shaped spaceship from Viska, and the other party answered in a messy manner, a somewhat embarrassing voice suddenly came from the corner of the room, and I Looking up, Joad was looking at this side with special entanglement.
"Ah, are you still there?"
Qianqian immediately exclaimed.
I immediately gave Qianqian a headache: Why is this girl talking without thinking
"This place is almost out of the atmosphere, where can I go?"
Yoder spread his hands, an old man who was quite serious, actually made a joke.
The incident just now may have made Yoder puzzled. Although he remained calm, the confusion and great doubts in his eyes were obvious, and what he cared most about was a ship that could compete with this ancient spaceship. The little girl who hosts the dialogue.
"who are you?"
Looking into Viska's blood-red eyes, Joad suddenly asked seriously.
Viska looked up at the other party and said dejectedly: "My brother said you can't hit the old man, but you are really tall..."
I hurriedly pulled the chair over: "Master, you sit first, sit first."
"I can't figure out a lot of things now. To be honest, my mind is completely messed up." Yoder smiled wryly, reaching out to press his forehead, "How could such a disaster happen... are you really... okay, This is not important. The most important thing now is to rescue the civilians as soon as possible. They are still on the ground. According to the knowledge left by ancient times, when the gate is lowered, the planet will disintegrate within 24 hours. The transport spaceship you promised When will you arrive?"
"Look outside."
Sandora casually opened a holographic projection in the air, "The spaceship has arrived, but I need to accurately grasp the data of civilians on the surface, otherwise the speed of search and rescue will be greatly reduced."
What is displayed on the holographic screen is the picture of this ruined planet in low-earth orbit. It can be seen that the ground below has undergone very obvious changes in the great changes. There are countless huge cracks that are slowly extending to the entire planet. From The blue energy sparks and bright yellow molten metal bursting out from the cracks make this gray-black metallic ball seem to be slowly surrounded by a bright spider web, but because the planet's crust itself has strong toughness, Now its geological structure has not yet collapsed, and although the disaster situation on the surface looks terrible, most of the settlements are far away from those cracked zones and areas with strong vibrations, so the current casualties of the victims are still optimistic-of course, the biggest contributor to this is not It's not the luck of the disaster victims, but the layer of pale green light that is filling the entire planet.
A layer of pale green light shrouded the planet like a thin mist, the thickness of which was almost equal to the atmosphere. It looked as if the atmosphere of the entire planet had turned green. This layer of green light was not fixed, but rather Slowly flowing around the ground, they gather in a few places, forming patches with significantly more brightness in those places, which are densely populated areas—with the help of these bright spots, search and rescue ships can more easily locate where more support is needed , Of course, this is only a relatively superficial positioning. If our goal is not to give up one person, then we need more detailed and accurate population registration data in the hands of the church—the things they use to determine social resource quotas.
This layer of green haze covering the planet is the power of Jingle and Lilina, and it is protecting life on the planet. The combination of a goddess of life and a supreme bishop is invincible. They forcibly provided life restoration for civilians who were seriously injured in the earthquake, and even resurrected the dead. In the place where the life force is the strongest, there may be decapitation The scene where the man can be resurrected with full blood as long as someone is around to help him put his neck back... I think there should be a group of psychiatrists to follow up and treat him.
In the sky above the low-earth orbit, huge silver-gray figures are gradually emerging from the space. They have an oblate shape and a long axis of at least 20 kilometers. They look like apple seeds that have been magnified countless times. Dozens of huge cracks are arranged vertically, and at the other end are neatly arranged engine nozzles. Blue energy particles emanate from the nozzles, illuminating the sky of the entire ruined planet.
They are the transport motherships of the Imperial Legion. In the battlefield, these spaceships used to transport supplies have never been active on the front stage, but now, they have become well-deserved protagonists.
Countless small transport ships swarmed out from the gaps at the front of these transport carriers, and rushed down to the planet that was gradually splitting below according to the command of the unified command link. Endless blue spores.
Although he was somewhat confused about what was going on, Yoder handed us the population database of the planet held by the church in time, and now this database has been uploaded to all transport carriers, those search and rescue ships that entered the atmosphere It is to act according to the instructions of the database and the life energy distribution map on the surface of the planet.
But accidents still happen.
"We have enough search and rescue ships and search and rescue tools that can cope with any complicated situation, but many settlements cannot be located, and the diggers are used to migrating with the machines and mining points," another holographic projection suddenly popped up in front of him, on which was Xi Wei. Si’s image, “The database received just now only has the number of residents and quota ID codes, and there is no information about their specific whereabouts, and due to the strong interference being released inside the ruined planet, our shipboard scanner is not working properly, and there is no way to use it.” In the search for life all over the planet, if this problem is not solved as soon as possible, it is estimated that after 24 hours we will miss at least one in ten survivors."
