Chapter 313 Landing Exploration
"Pilot, please choose a suitable place to land in the area where suspected human activities are found! We will start the investigation from there!"

In the cabin of the Guangshu, Jessica, a female scientist with blond hair and blue eyes, said to the pilot in the communication channel with a slightly excited tone. It seemed that she was not worried at all that the existence of suspected humans would pose a threat to them.

"Ok."

The operators of the Guangshu agreed without a trace of hesitation after hearing this. Even though they were the controllers of the spacecraft, in fact their status was far inferior to that of the scientists who were the passengers. These scientists were the leaders of the mission.

"Are there really humans on this planet?"

Wang Zhifan, who was listening next to him, was equally surprised. He had now figured out the background of this dungeon. Logically speaking, humans should not exist on this alien planet, especially since the large strange buildings that can be seen from high altitude are completely It does not conform to the aesthetics of any human species, and does not look like a world where humans reproduce.

Not long after, as the Light Hub got closer and closer to the surface of the planet, he could see things on the ground more and more clearly through the portholes.

First of all, those strange gray buildings that look spectacular at high altitudes become more and more majestic. They are like large and small cones with irregular arcs, occupying most of the surface of this planet.

When the spacecraft flies closer to the ground, you can see that the surfaces of these cones are not completely smooth planes, but have some small holes, and smaller things fly out from the holes from time to time, like Green smoke came out of the chimney.

As for the bottom of the gray building, it is even more lively. You can vaguely see a large number of tiny things running around them, and there are even blooming flames and exploding smoke from time to time.

"Report! There is danger in the original landing area! The spacecraft will move to the surrounding area to seek landing!"

"Then... the safety aspects of ground exploration will be left to Captain Wang. This planet does not seem to be very welcoming to us."

boom! boom! Boom!

But Jessica didn't care too much about the so-called dangers outside. She just wanted to complete the tasks she shouldered.

"This driver is a bit fierce...but I like it."

"Captain Wang, how did you find out about the enemy just now?"

As a person with the strongest physical coordination ability, Wang Zhifan was basically unaffected by the maneuvers of the spacecraft. When he saw the Guangshu violently bombarding potential enemies with his own eyes, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He originally thought that the operator of the spacecraft would choose to evade first. Who knows that they prefer to strike first.

But at this moment, his eyes suddenly stared at a seemingly inconspicuous gray building on the ground outside the porthole window. At the same time, he quickly connected to the communication channel and reminded loudly:
"Attention, pilot! There is an attack coming from the three o'clock direction! Let the spacecraft attack or avoid it!"

The spacecraft pilot's reply came immediately from the communication channel. From his slightly surprised tone, we could tell that he was somewhat surprised by Wang Zhifan's reminder.

"I rely on my intuition, and my intuition is always very accurate."

It turned out that his far superior perception had just discovered that a large amount of energy was gathering in the gray building on the ground. He judged that there was some kind of powerful hostile attack brewing, so he did not hesitate to remind the spacecraft pilot to take countermeasures. , after all, he is just a passenger at the moment, and it is not very convenient for him to help.

"Target found! Activate defense mode!"

"Captain Jessica! It has been detected that there is at least a moderate level of existential threat on this planet! Are you sure you want to lead the team to land for inspection?"

Wang Zhifan immediately replied without looking back, giving a reason that was difficult for Jessica to refute.

Jessica was not dissatisfied with the pilot's decision at this time, but looked curiously at Wang Zhifan nearby who was still observing the scene outside the porthole. It was difficult to understand how one of his passengers could compare to the pilot who controlled various detectors of the spacecraft. Enemies can also be spotted earlier.

"The race on this planet seems to be very prosperous? It's really brave to let the spacecraft fall down like this..."

The voice of the driving team soon came from the communication channel. At this time, they had become increasingly aware that the planet was not as peaceful as it initially seemed, so they wanted the scientific investigation team to change their exploration strategy.

Jessica's eyes were looking through the porthole at the moment, and she could see sporadic long strips of alien bugs in the sky outside chasing the Guangshu. Fortunately, the speed of the Guangshu was incomparable to them, so currently They didn't pose any threat, except when they reached the ground.

Then the driver's voice came from the communication channel. After the scene just now, they had to choose another place, otherwise they would make themselves uncomfortable.

Wang Zhifan naturally regarded the movable objects that could barely be seen on the ground as the main race on the planet. Even though he had not yet seen clearly what they looked like when he arrived, he was currently only thinking about how to deal with the pressure that might come.

Immediately afterwards, the Guangshu spacecraft began to make some maneuvers, causing the passengers inside to be affected and began to lean back. At the same time, there were continuous violent explosions on the ground. It was the Guangshu that launched the attack first, causing the gray building to The building was hit by two missiles before releasing its firepower, and it also received a round of dense long-range artillery fire, causing the attack it was brewing to turn into brilliant fireworks before it showed its power.

"This planet is very valuable! We must conduct field research! Please pick a suitable place for us to land!"

With her firm will, the pilot of the Guangshu had no choice but to agree, and then spent about a quarter of an hour finding a wide, uninhabited flat area near the original area, where Wang Zhifan's security team and Jessica's The exploration team safely left the spacecraft and reached the ground.

But it must be mentioned that because the spacecraft has poor defense capabilities when parked and the spacecraft is too large to easily attract attacks, the Optical Hub did not stay on the ground all the time. It left behind inspection vehicles, exploration personnel and necessary supplies. After that, it quickly rose to high altitude, and would only appear again when people like Wang Zhifan and Jessica wanted to end the investigation or needed help.

"Captain Wang, the human traces detected by the spacecraft just now are in that direction, so we need to head all the way there."

At this time, Wang Zhifan drove the inspection vehicle, and Jessica, who was sitting in his co-pilot, designated the direction of travel. The large-sized research vehicle they drove was a specially-made ground vehicle. In addition to its excellent driving functions, it was also first-rate in adapting to various bullet-proof and explosion-proof harsh environments. He and four scientists who needed protection were sitting in the front section of the closed carriage. It was like hiding in the strongest tank, but they still wore slightly bulky space suits for the convenience of conducting inspections at any time.

In the back section of the carriage, a total of twelve fully armed clone troopers were crowded there. Among them were even clone troopers loaded with combat mechas. Counting the large amount of supplies sufficient for these people, this ground vehicle The carrying capacity is evident.

"Why are we looking for those humans? I feel that humans may be more dangerous than alien creatures."

Although Wang Zhifan was already controlling the steering wheel of the research vehicle and moving in the direction indicated by Jessica, he still felt a little disapproval of these people looking for such a target, even though he himself was a little curious about why there were humans in this place.

"Because according to our speculation, humans should not exist at all on this planet, but the test results show that there is a high probability of existence, so there must be a big secret hidden in it. As investigators, we must uncover this secret. This is our The duty of investigation lies..."

Jessica patiently explained to Wang Zhifan until he suddenly turned to look at her again and interrupted her.

"My intuition tells me that we should be able to adapt directly to the outside environment without the need to wear protective clothing. Can you do some tests first to confirm? This suit is really uncomfortable to wear.

It turned out that he felt that the environment on this planet was quite mild for humans, so he didn't want to be uncomfortable dressing like a robot, but he couldn't completely trust his own judgment, otherwise some alien viruses or something would invade his body. This is a hidden danger. At least these scientists and the clone soldiers behind them are difficult to withstand.

"The currently known conditions of this planet are indeed very suitable for our human survival. Otherwise, we would not believe the existence of human beings detected by Guangshu. However, scientific investigation is rigorous. In order to prevent bacteria and other microorganisms on our bodies from interacting with this planet Cross-contamination will occur in the environment, which will affect the accuracy of the inspection. I suggest everyone to bear with it for the time being. "

The person who said these words was a yellow-skinned young man among the four scientists. Wang Zhifan vaguely knew from the exchange that he specialized in biological sciences, so the other party's opinions in this regard were very important.

"The spacecraft even launched missiles just now, why are we worried about cross-contamination..."

Wang Zhifan could only say that he was a little speechless at this explanation. He understood that scientific research required rigor, but compared with his own life, he could not care about this. When it was time to abandon this burden, he would not hesitate at all.

In this way, several people communicated while driving the research vehicle on the alien land, heading towards the gray cone-like building in the distance that was as tall as a mountain.

Their journey was relatively smooth for the first ten or twenty minutes, and they encountered no unexpected situations. However, as time went on, local snakes came to greet them.

Specifically, they are ferocious ground-burrowing creatures. They look like black earthworms with carapaces and sharp mouths. Each one is at least three meters long and as thick as an adult thigh. As soon as they found out that the research vehicle was not a local, they launched a continuous harassment campaign. .

At first, these strange creatures tried to break into the research vehicle directly. They continuously emerged from the ground and violently attacked the body, doors, windshield and even wheels of the research vehicle, which made several people in the car quite nervous. However, the research vehicle was specially made. The vehicles are capable of carrying even bombs, let alone these small fights. In addition, the vehicle body is as big and as stable as an old dog. These alien creatures are bumped into a head full of bumps, without tasting the slightest benefit. Retreat and run away.

"Captain Wang, we need to collect the material of the creature just now for testing. Please stop the vehicle in a safe location and let us get out of the vehicle."

After the incident, Jessica, as the team leader, made demands on Wang Zhifan, the temporary driver. From the black traces left by the violent impact in various parts of the inspection vehicle, it can be judged that the biological material she mentioned refers to the alien just now. The traces left by the creature on the car body also showed that the other party was not a dull person, and did not ask Wang Zhifan, the security captain, to capture an alien creature alive for her.

"Wait a minute, there are still some dangers following the ground around here. It should be fine once we enter the construction area ahead."

Wang Zhifan replied in a deep voice. His powerful perception allowed him to detect dangers hidden underground. If he just saw that the ground was calm and let these scientists come out to work, there would be trouble later.

"Okay, we trust Captain Wang's intuition."

Jessica smiled when she saw this and was not in a hurry for the temporary work.

After continuing to drive smoothly for about half an hour, this large research vehicle drove out of the large flat land just now and entered the surroundings of the huge cone-like gray buildings scattered all over the planet.

Through the thick windshield of the inspection vehicle, Wang Zhifan could see that the ground near these buildings was also covered with gray-black unknown material. It looked flat and hard, giving people a more solid road feel than cement.

At the bottom of the building, small door-like holes are arranged in a circle. It is so dark inside that it is difficult to see what is there, but there are many wooden stake-like cones on the gray-black ground near these doorways. Floating back and forth, it seemed like a group of flying guards guarding the huge cone patrol.

"What are those? Aliens? Ordinary aliens? Or some kind of machine?"

Several scientists in the car were unable to accurately determine the identity of the floating moving objects when they saw this, because they looked too strange. They did not look like living things but seemed to have aggregation behavior. If they were living things, why did they not approach their research vehicle? Any reaction? You must know that the monsters that were wandering around in the field were very interested in their cars.

"They should be alien machines. My instruments have detected electronic effects inside them, which are very similar to the alien object where we found the coordinates."

The punk-style black girl expressed her opinion at this time. She is an expert in the field of electronic computers. She attaches great importance to the machinery that appears during the inspection work and wants to make major breakthroughs from the works of aliens.

"We need to find a way to get a sample in hand, which will be very convenient for our research."

The black girl felt that the floating cone outside did not seem to be offensive, so she suggested that everyone have something in hand, otherwise the detection efficiency from a distance would be very low.

"Don't do that! Those things contain quite a lot of energy. If you try hard with them, you might be blown to pieces!"

Wang Zhifan quickly stopped their thoughts after hearing this, because he felt that these suspended objects were much more dangerous than the previous earth-burrowing creatures.
