Chapter 813 The Escaped Engineering Ship
Of course, an important reason for the successful signing of the Antarctic Treaty is the successful development of space-based kinetic energy weapons-this kind of "kinetic energy cannon" arranged in low-Earth orbit is terrifyingly powerful and extremely difficult to intercept. Any occupation of ground targets, All would lose meaning in the face of a space-based kinetic energy weapon shell, and the war among the major ZZ entities gradually changed from a competition for various surface fortresses to an offensive and defensive war around space-based kinetic energy weapon satellites.

It can't help but make people feel a little ridiculous. At that time, human civilization had entered the era of "space war" before it even stepped out of the solar system.

The form of war is always the one that develops the fastest in all fields.

As for the outbreak of the solar crisis and the various ZZ entities abandoning their prejudices and coming together to start the construction plan of the Ark, that is already a very late event.

While slaughtering and devouring the zombies that rushed into the space barrier, Ke Lan constantly supplemented and perfected this memory fragment.

He is now basically sure that this is a spaceship built by human civilization—not because the shape of the spaceship is similar to that of human civilization, but because the right side of the bow of the spaceship is printed with English letters and Arabic numerals. The ship's hull number.

"GCY0906"

The GCY at the front is not English but the acronym of Chinese Pinyin, which means "engineering use"-this shows that this is an engineering ship rather than a warship.

The hull length of this engineering ship is about 150 meters, and there is no emblem of any power on the surface. This is a very rare thing in the old era: In some war zones where the competition is fierce, radio communication is almost completely unusable, and the only means of communication is laser communication. However, the biggest problem of laser communication has been mentioned many times. The gap between the laser transmitter and receiver There must be no obstacles. In the complex environment and low-Earth orbit full of space junk, the limitation is actually very large.

In many cases, the space forces of all participating parties need to rely on sight to distinguish between the enemy and the enemy. Radar has become a decoration, and reconnaissance work relies more on high-speed space fighters and drones... Technology is constantly developing, but the mode of war is like It's like going back to the European naval battles of the eighteenth century...

In this case, it is very necessary to paint the surface of the spaceship or warship to identify the emblem - the main warships and combat vehicles of each participating party are actually not very different in appearance. When the battle is tight, after capturing the enemy warship After a little modification, it will be put into the battlefield. No matter which side it is, there are a large number of warships built by other forces in the fleet. If there is no painting or emblem used to identify the enemy and the enemy, even if they are operating in our safe zone, they will be in danger. It may be intercepted or even attacked by friendly forces.

An engineering spaceship without identifying paint and emblems...then there is only one possibility: this spaceship was built in the "Ark Age".

In this era, hostilities between the main ZZ entities on the earth have basically been lifted. Except for some minor frictions in some areas, all technologies and resources have been tilted to the construction of the Ark... …this is a period of unprecedented unity among human beings, a period in which it does not matter if the starship does not have the identifying emblem of the faction it belongs to.

The only people who will obstruct the construction of the Ark are those who are called "rebel forces", but the influence of "rebel forces" is only limited to the earth, and all channels leading to space are firmly controlled by major ZZ entities Controlled, it is very difficult for people who resist forces to go to space, and it is also difficult to obtain ships or fighter planes that can launch terrorist attacks in space.

Did this spacecraft ever participate in the construction of Noah's Ark?

Ke Lan remembers very clearly that after the Ark set sail, a large part of the people who stayed behind were unwilling to be buried with the earth, and fled by driving the ships used to build the Ark and accelerating the residual energy of the star gate. The solar system... Is this engineering ship one of the many ships that escaped from the solar system?
No wonder even the lighting facilities in the ship are turned off... During this kind of voyage with almost no end in sight, every bit of energy is invaluable, especially after being far away from the sun, if you want to obtain energy in the dark and cold space. Energy is simply as difficult as climbing the sky.

Could it be that these zombies were once fugitives from this engineering ship?
No... Logically speaking, the possibility of these ships escaping the solar system surviving space travel is basically zero, even if they can find an impulse that is located near the solar system and has not been discovered by humans and Arks. The structural strength of the ship simply cannot withstand the space storm when passing through the wormhole.

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if there is a ship that is extremely lucky and floats to the star field where the Alpha star is located by relying on inertial navigation... But at this time, it is impossible for there to be any living people on this ship, even if it ends up A group of crew members decided to cryopreserve human embryos. During the long journey, the freezer would also stop working due to lack of energy.

What's more, these zombies were still wearing the uniforms of the Field Corps.

But why... what I absorbed from the bodies of these zombies was the memory of the escaped engineering ship?

Is there something wrong with it, or is the trial program of this Tongtian Tower intentional?

Ke Lan doesn't know, he can only choose to absorb more zombies, and continue to complete this memory.

……

It seems that a long time has passed, and the engineering ships sailing in space have become more and more dilapidated. There are a large number of depressions and potholes hit by meteorites on the original flat hull shell, and the thruster nozzles of several main engines are also damaged. There are still traces of explosion and fire... Obviously, during the period of amnesia, this engineering ship should have encountered many unexpected situations... But at least, the whole ship has not disintegrated, and the survivors on board will not be able to face it directly. For the cold, dark, oxygen-free, and deadly radiation-filled space environment.

……

Another period of time passed. The survivors on the engineering ship were lucky. They found an asteroid rich in ore resources. The entire engineering ship directly docked on this asteroid with a diameter of less than one kilometer. Resource harvesting robots were sent out to dig a large number of mines on the surface of the asteroid.

Among the survivors, there seemed to be metallurgical engineers. A crude smelting factory made of several metal containers was built on the asteroid. to repair the damaged hull.

The light of the stars came from the distant star field. Although it was very weak, it at least solved the urgent need of energy shortage. The foldable photovoltaic panels almost covered half of the asteroids—in the desperate situation, it seemed to ignite again. A glimmer of hope.

But what makes Ke Lan a little puzzled is that there is no human figure in the images in the memory fragments from the beginning to the end—whether it is during the flight of the spacecraft or when it is docked on an asteroid, mining minerals and smelting metals. Human figures appeared in the screen.

Ke Lan even had an illusion: It seems that those self-disciplined resource collection robots that mine minerals are the only "living creatures" on this engineering ship.
