Chapter 608 Arriving at Io

A bright light pierced the darkness, and the Giant Turtle Yantai broke away from the hyperspace state and entered a brand new starry sky.

The external monitor transmitted the scene outside the spacecraft, and simulated the entire starry sky around the bridge through surround projection. Hao Ren saw that the starry sky outside was slightly dark gray, which meant that this star area was surrounded by a very large primitive cloud belt. On one side of the starry sky, you can see a long and bright strip. There are countless bright lights in the strip, as if millions of stars are clustered together to light up the night sky. There should be a cradle of stars, constantly shining every moment. Brand new stars are being created and primordial matter is ejected throughout the universe.

"A... magnificent place," Yzaks waited until he stood and finally raised his head from the newspaper that was always in his hand. He looked around, "It seems that the Milky Way of the Sirens is still very young."

"Io has appeared directly ahead, and the spacecraft is approaching the target," the voice of the data terminal sounded through the shipboard radio, "Wait a moment... OK, you can see it."

Directly in front of the holographic projection, a dim planet is gradually enlarging. Its surface is completely covered by a dark ocean, and the entire planet is shrouded in a gray-blue hue. There are only some fragmented huge white patches sparsely distributed in the northern hemisphere of the planet, which are seasonal ice floes like continents. In the southern hemisphere of the planet, there is a dense cloud cover. According to the records in the Nasatorn database, it is a unique atmospheric phenomenon that moves on the surface of the planet on a yearly basis. In the past, the Krakens called it the "canopy."

The sun is located on one side of the line connecting the spacecraft and Io. The sunlight shines obliquely on the surface of the planet from the side, making it seem to be coated with a layer of metal.

"This is the hometown of the Siren..." Lily leaned on the back of the chair and said in a long tone, while turning her head to look at the Siren Queen, "Your hometown has arrived."

Shakira and Soma also stared at the picture on the holographic projection. The strange planet completely covered by the ocean was now the only thing in their sight. After a long time, Hao Ren couldn't help but interrupt: "What, do you have any thoughts?"

"I... don't know," Shakira shook her head in confusion, "I thought I should be more excited, but when I saw this planet, I didn't seem to have any special feeling. I almost couldn't imagine that I evolved from this place. from."

Nangong Sanba stood up, straightened his long black trench coat in a coquettish way, and pulled it as tight as two hundred and fifty thousand, trying to give people chicken soup for the soul: "Because you can't experience the feeling of setting foot in your hometown from space. Hometown is the mountains and rivers." , it’s the streets and alleys, it’s the familiar street chants and local sounds and nostalgia. If you don’t come into contact with these things, you will never be back home, and this cannot be realized by looking at 3D photos in space..."

Wuyue raised his head and looked at Nangong Sanba: "Brother, will you die if you don't show off? Your chicken soup for the soul has gone sour. If I remember correctly, you used that sentence twenty years ago. It was to follow The old overseas Chinese are pretty good at it, right? They deceived two people into using white jade."

Nangong Sanba: "...but I also caught three evil spirits for the old man, why didn't you tell me!"

It's much more interesting to watch the two brothers and sisters bickering than to watch Nangong Wuyue poke the floor with the tip of his tail.

The spacecraft quickly approached Io and circled to its sunny side. Since the planet was completely covered with water and there was no conventional landing site, Hao Ren decided to find an ice floe to land on. But as the spacecraft gradually approached the planet, a bright light suddenly flashed across the holographic projection. Hao Ren looked up and found a sparkling thing suspended in the sky above the northern hemisphere of Io. He quickly changed the course of the spacecraft and moved closer.

"What is that?" Lily's ears perked up energetically, completely entering the state a husky should have when going out, "Does it look like a space station?"

The shiny space facility got closer and closer, finally showing a series of clear arcs and arched structures. Its scale was like a giant city, and its overall shape was like several layers of shells. Around this facility A towering wall inlaid with crystals can be seen, but the sky above the facility is empty. There seemed to be something similar to a protective shield there, but it has now disappeared.

Hao Ren looked more and more familiar, and finally suddenly recalled: "Does this look similar to the shape of Nasatorn?"

"I almost didn't recognize it when it was flying in the sky!" Vivian was also surprised. "This...is another immigrant ship? How can it stay in orbit?"

"Slowly move closer. Terminal, search the previously copied Nasatorn database to see if it has sister ships or anything like that."

Hao Ren's previous interest was all in the planet Io itself and the historical fragments of Kraken. Even though he copied a lot of things from the Nasatorn database, he didn't have time to take a closer look. So when he saw another huge immigrant ship, he suddenly thought that he should pay attention to whether the Kraken at that time had also built other exile spaceships - and what was the fate of those exile spaceships.

The Giant Turtle Yantai gradually approached the giant space ship that was almost exactly the same as Nasa Torn, and the voice of the data terminal rang out: "Searching... It is confirmed that Nasa Torn has three sister ships, namely Zarazan The En, the Antavien and the Palatheon. Except for the Antavien, which was specially designed and has an iconic core fusion tower, the other two ships have the same structure as the Nasatorn. , are made from the same blueprint.”

"So it should be one of those two mass-produced ships," Hao Ren's interest suddenly increased. "Is there any sign of threat on it?"

"Preliminary scans show that there are no signs of life on the spacecraft, but it does not rule out the existence of specific life forms that are difficult to identify."

Although the Giant Turtle Rock Platform was advanced, it was only a few hundred meters long and looked very inconspicuous after flying near the wreckage. Hao Ren let the spacecraft fly slowly over the wreckage and carefully observed the condition of the giant ship. The latter has, of course, completely lost power, and is now flying unpowered in a high orbit around Io, rolling along its central axis at a very slow speed. The Siren Queen observed it for a long time and said softly: "It has no water dome."

"Don't talk about the water dome, it doesn't even have a drop of water." Lily smacked her lips and shook her head.

The shield of the spacecraft has disappeared, and it seems that multiple sections of walls on the side are damaged. The clear water that once filled the cabin has long since escaped into space. A large number of buildings and facilities inside the ship are exposed to the dry vacuum of space, and are mercilessly baked by scorching sunlight and cosmic rays.

Hao Ren saw a series of tear marks from the explosion on the side of the wreckage, which was undoubtedly the cause of the ship's crash. But who caused those explosions?

Was it the Brain Monster that destroyed the ship, or was it the Firstborn?

Hao Ren raised his head and looked at the console: "Zhong Bian, have you received any feedback on finding the portal?"

"No, it may be hidden under the sea, or it may be hidden in an abnormal space like Nassatorn. This machine needs to conduct a large-scale scan of the entire planet. In addition, this machine solemnly declares that this machine is a terminal, and you cannot call it casually. This unit’s nickname…”

"Have you found the brain monster's life response?"

"This will have to wait until the entire planet is scanned. Besides, I haven't finished talking yet. You have to respect a PDA..."

"You go scan the planet and put in a few more probes. Maybe those big heads have set up an ambush and are waiting for us to land," Hao Ren said as he walked towards the bridge door, "I will lead the two of them to the wreckage Go take a look and confirm the cause of those explosions, and I’ll be back soon.”

"Oh, that's right. But I also want to emphasize that this machine is a terminal..."

Hao Ren ignored it at all and strode towards the teleportation room, greeting as he walked: "Who else wants to follow? Put on the life-support collar and come with us."

Lily jumped up and followed up: "Landlord, wait a minute, I'll go with you! Also, Landlord, look at the little bell I added to the collar, do you think it looks good..."

Vivian sighed and followed Lily: "I'll go there too, neither of you is reassuring."

A group of three people left the Giant Turtle Rock Platform and were directly "launched" by the teleportation projection device onto a section of the outer wall of the huge wreckage. The Giant Turtle Rock Platform quickly disappeared at the end of the horizon after sending out several light signals: It's going to do a full scan of Io.

There is no power on this wreckage, and of course there is no artificial gravity. Exploring it requires some skills. While Hao Ren looked around the situation to find the best path to the explosion zones, he told the two girls following him through the communicator: "Be careful, don't hit the pillars. You are not used to space activities yet." .”

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lily flying out excitedly, and then slammed into a thick alloy beam. Her head was stuck in the metal and couldn't be pulled out for a long time...

"Okay, it's okay if we bump into it."
