Chapter 823 Star Pirates Appear
"Mr. Bug, I found what you want!"
At this time, on a dwarf planet, player Xiao J ran over excitedly and showed Emville what he had found. It was an ordinary black stone that looked like an ordinary ore, but the lines on the stone were covered with a mysterious luster, which made people feel excited.
Mr. Bug, that is, Emville, bent his legs and the next moment, the stone floated in front of his eyes. As his insect eyes emitted red light, the stone shattered and replaced by a complex pattern of light.
Complex sound wave frequencies began to be emitted from Emville's mouthparts, and the pattern began to transform into different shapes as the special sound waves changed.
As an archaeologist, mastering knowledge in various fields is standard, otherwise what kind of archaeology is there, and this kind of "sound wave" is not a real sound wave, but a change of interstellar mysticism. It is not sound, otherwise it cannot flow in a vacuum.
This pattern finally turned into a direction sign under the operation of the big bug. Emville nodded with satisfaction and said, "Gather your companions and go to the ruins to explore."
Little J was refreshed and thought that he had finally found it, otherwise the previous exploration would have been delayed in vain.
To be precise, this dwarf planet named 4-5-1 is not on the route, but is close to the route. It is not a stumbling block to the route, so the exploration here is entirely Emville's personal behavior, and he even brought the only exploration ship in the fleet for this purpose.
Little J's eyes were empty at this time, and the next moment, his consciousness seemed to cross space and time and connect to the heads of all players on this dwarf planet.
For a while, all kinds of noises sounded, all of which were the inner voices of the players.
'Fuck, outer space is freezing me to death, I want to go back to the spaceship. '
'I've been working hard for 20 hours, I have to go offline to eat. '
'It's so boring. Every day I just pick up stones and dig stones. I would not have left the planet if I had known. '
'Little J is an idiot. ’
I don’t know which player’s voice it was at the end, but Xiao J’s face darkened after hearing it.
As a superpower player, Xiao J’s ‘spiritual channel’ was not that strong originally. At the beginning, it was just a team channel for communication with friends who were doing tasks together.
Later, with the development of superpowers, especially after he implanted several ‘biological plug-ins’ that could enhance superpowers, this E-level superpower took off directly.
First, a camera ‘grew’, and video calls evolved from team channels, and upgraded to D-level.
Then the ‘video call’ was strengthened again, not only can it communicate with people, but also can peek into the virtual world, which is equivalent to a virtual camera that can ‘see’ files in the virtual firewall.
With this, he became a favorite of many hacker players.
After earning a lot of experience and money through various hacker tasks, he upgraded his superpower to B-level through several implantation surgeries.
This is amazing. It can not only open the back of someone’s head, ignore the distance, and directly contact people, but also enter the depths of people’s thoughts and transform people’s subconsciousness.
Moreover, he can connect hundreds of people at the same time and control them mentally, and is known as the beggar version of Professor X.
Although Xiao J does not know who this guy named Charles is.
And this ability also made him quickly gain the favor of the big bug Emville, and successfully become the big bug's assistant. According to the big bug's plan for him, the other party has the means to make his superpowers go further.
The overall area of the dwarf planet is not as large as the satellite. This 4-5-1 dwarf planet is only one-third the size of the Cybertron satellite, and its surface area is roughly equivalent to two Asias.
And the players who are generally promoted to the second level are also very powerful now, and basically everyone has a supersonic flight device.
But even so, these hundreds of players scattered on the surface of this dwarf planet are still like finding a needle in a haystack.
Fortunately, Emville, through its professional skills as an archaeologist, has greatly narrowed the search range with a series of operations that the players do not understand.
Soon, more and more players appeared near the coordinates, and Xiao J also "saw" the appearance of the ruins through the mental channel.
To be honest, he was a little disappointed. He thought this alien relic was so advanced, but it turned out to be quite primitive. It felt like Stonehenge. Various large stones were cut into strange human shapes, and then presented various ways of death, some were hanged, some were seppuku, some were torn apart by five horses, and some were even ways of death of different races and civilizations. For example, Xiao J saw that a species suspected to be mechanical life was forced to shut down, and all the energy pipelines on its body were cut off.
'It's them! '
Emwell seemed to have thought of something, his face changed slightly, his feet landed on the ground, and he quickly crawled in that direction. Although this guy was bloated, he climbed up as fast as the car. Xiao J spent a lot of effort to catch up with it.
"Mr. Chong, what exactly is this relic?"
"A very special cosmic race. I have to go to the scene to see the specific situation."
As Emville said these words, his mouth suddenly trembled several times and his head suddenly raised. In his sight, there were suddenly thirty or forty more black dots around the exploration ship that had turned into small black dots.
"Hey, what is that?" Little J looked up blankly, looking at these small black dots, and couldn't come back to his senses for a while.
"Star Pirate Group!!!" Emville gritted his teeth.
...
And in the meteorite belt of area 4, inside the modified exploration ship, an alarm suddenly sounded.
As the ship-borne intelligence, the big A4 had already shown its prototype, and looked at the ship-borne radar with some concern. On the radar surface, dozens of small spaceships were approaching it quickly.
As for the players, they had already exploded.
"Fuck, what is that!?"
"Wild monsters, space monsters!" A player vowed.
"Let me out, I want to kill monsters!!!" A strong player carried his modified armor, eager to try.
"You go to hell, the nearest spaceship is 90km away from us, can you fly over?"
"Wow, the AI girl has big breasts, I like it so much," the old SP player said as usual regardless of the occasion.
Fortunately, all the operating modules of the Cybertron starship are operated by the Spark Mechanical Body. If it were these stubborn guys, they would probably have rushed up to fight these star pirates.
"Have you notified the main ship?" asked the big A4.
"The peripheral signal is cut off and communication is impossible."
Big A4's heart sank. Strictly speaking, she was born less than three days ago. Although as a honeycomb intelligence, she naturally shared all the memories of the original Big A, but the problem is that the original A girl has never encountered such a situation.
The voice of the fire life sounded again.
"Do you want to start the counterattack mode? There is a 54.5% probability of destroying one-third of the enemy ships and a 23.1% probability of destroying more than 50% of the enemy's fleet."
'If you escape the battlefield, how sure are you? '
Big A4 calculated quickly, she was considering not only herself, but also the lives of all the crew members.
Although the players may not care.
But soon, with the sound of "sizzling", a vague virtual channel suddenly appeared, and the other side of the channel was a chaotic and complex data flow. Almost as soon as the virtual channel was opened, the entire spacecraft's operating system began to be affected, generating various garbled codes.
And the firewall of the spacecraft did not seem to be opened at all.
Area 1 and Area 4 are at least thousands of kilometers apart. Only high-level information life can communicate when the signal is completely cut off.
And this level of information life, let alone ordinary interstellar forces, may not exist in some civilizations.
Big A4 immediately said respectfully: "Miss Yuanyuan."
The memory copied to the main body made her clear that in the Du Gao Group, apart from Ms. Du who was in charge of all affairs, Miss Gao Yuanyuan had the highest status, not only because of the relationship with Mr. G's sister, but also because she was in charge of the "virtual world", one of the highest-level projects of the group.
In the chaotic and irritable data flow, the phantom of Ms. Gao Yuanyuan loomed, and soon, Big A4 understood what the other party meant. The heavy chest sank a few times with breathing, and then said, "I understand."
After the communication ended, the energy fire warehouses on the surface of the exploration ship lit up one by one. The function of these fire warehouses was equivalent to that of reactors, and the degree of explosion of the fire energy was ten times that of ordinary reactors.
There are some rules for pirates to attack starships. The first is to cut off communications. The distance of the cosmic route is often measured in light years, and the time of cosmic navigation is often measured in hundreds of years.
So as long as the communication is cut off, then all external support is basically cut off.
Another point is to shoot down the spacecraft from the light speed mode, because if the spacecraft is in the light speed mode, then the opponent not only has the possibility of running away, but also easily runs away without knowing where to go. In the universe, there are many dangers, and pirates who often walk by the river are very clear about it.
When the exploration ship in front of them deviated from the route, the pirates who surrounded it suddenly showed ecstatic expressions.
Because it deviated from the route, it must be switched from the light speed mode. Traveling at the speed of light in the non-channel area is mostly the end of the ship being destroyed and people dying, especially in this meteorite belt, 100% of the ship is destroyed and people dying.
This is most likely a stupid decision made by the captain of the other party in panic.
What's even more stupid is that this ship does not go in other directions, and its target is the dwarf planet not far away.
Some spacecraft can enter some planets and use the defense circle of the planet for defense when encountering pirates.
But these planets must at least be technological planets that have been transformed to a certain degree. What's the point of running to an undeveloped dwarf planet?
However, considering the complex and difficult external environment of the meteorite belt, this way of running away is also reasonable. After all, in terms of short-distance navigation speed, the exploration ship is no match for their transformed interstellar pirate ship.
In this way, one chasing and the other escaping, the two sides are getting closer and closer to the dwarf planet No. 4-5-1.
