Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 794 Underwater City
The two waited patiently for a while, and continued to move forward after the fleet of the Jijing clan withdrew, to be precise, they were heading under the ice layer.

Although those powerful Soldiers of the Extreme Tribe had already left, Yang Yi and Amy did not use brute force to penetrate the ice layer for the sake of safety, because the Extreme Tribe fleet probably left a small detector when they withdrew. It is also possible to detect abnormalities on the parent star.Fortunately, Yang Yi brought a set of standard combat equipment for the Human Expeditionary Force, including a battery-driven heat generator.

However, the two underestimated the thickness of the ice.

According to Amy, the Ocean of Storms is the largest ocean on the home planet of the Extreme Clan, with a deepest depth of more than 4000 kilometers.When the parent star of the polar family moves to the aphelion point, only liquid water exists near the submarine crater. More than [-] years ago, when the Jijing people settled down here, the pioneers of the Galactic Alliance placed some severely damaged and unusable spaceships near several large craters, using the large-scale original energy converters of these spaceships, Created some small ecological circles that can allow the extreme people to survive in harsh environments.In the next few hundred years, the Jijing people relied on these small ecological circles to survive on their home planet, and gradually developed and grew, eventually becoming a second-rate top-level civilization.This is also the case, these ecological circles must be the holy places of the Jijing people.

It's just that these ecological circles are all on the seabed of the storm ocean, and they are at the deepest point.

Now, the planet has moved near the aphelion, and the sea of ​​storms has long been frozen.In other words, in front of Yang Yi and Amy is a layer of ice tens of kilometers thick.

Although it is not difficult for Yang Yi and Amy to penetrate the tens of kilometers thick ice layer, it is obvious that only one heat generator used by a single soldier can create a passage tens of kilometers long on the ice layer. It's a big hassle, and it would take a lot of time, even if it could be done.

In the next few hours, the two only advanced less than a kilometer.At this rate, it would take days to penetrate the ice.

Even if they won't be discovered by the defenders of the Jijing tribe, they can't delay for so long.It's very simple. It won't take long for the defenders of the Extreme Realm to discover that the previous abnormal energy fluctuations came from some detectors.As long as the commander of the Extreme Realm garrison is not too stupid, he can think of the intruders using detectors as bait to lure them away.Next, the defenders of the Jijing tribe will definitely block the star system where the parent star is located, and then dispatch an army to carry out a carpet search.If this matter attracts the attention of the royal family of the Extreme Realm, they will definitely send powerful members of the royal family and strengthen the defense of the Holy Land.Even if Yang Yi and Amy were not found, they broke through the ice a few days later and arrived near the Holy Land of the Jijing tribe, waiting for them is likely to be the royal guard of the Jijing tribe, or even the Queen of the Jijing tribe.

"We have to hurry up. If we delay any longer, the consequences may be unpredictable."

Amy nodded, expressing that she understood what Yang Yi meant.

"Wait, I'll open the way ahead, you follow closely, don't pull down." Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "As expected, those defenders left behind detectors, and there may be a few powerful ones The guys stay on the home planet, but I can't perceive their existence, maybe they have no longer used the original energy. That is to say, we will be exposed soon, so we can only keep going. If the situation is really serious , we will withdraw immediately. No matter what, we can't just leave like this, we have to try anyway. Big deal, we will find another way to come here to check in the future. Remember, if there is any abnormal situation, we must immediately tell me."

Amy nodded and agreed, without saying anything.

Yang Yi didn't hesitate anymore, and when Amy was ready, he propped up the energy barrier, and at the same time concentrated a wave of original energy between his hands.

As Yuanneng shot out from Yang Yi's hand, a straight downward passage appeared under his feet.

The huge heat released during the transformation of the original energy instantly melted the nearby solid ice, equivalent to burning a channel on the ice layer.As the ice melted and gasified, the tunnel was filled with white water vapor.However, for Yang Yi, the mist was not a problem at all.

Yang Yi took the lead, followed by Amy.

Apparently, for Yang Yi, it was a breeze to break through the tens of kilometers of ice.

After a few minutes, the pair penetrated the ice.

As Amy said, there is a vast ocean under the ice layer. To be precise, it is a city built on the seabed, or a city that has long been abandoned.

Although at the beginning, the extreme tribe could only live in the ecological circle built by the pioneers, but after hundreds of years of development, especially after becoming a second-rate top civilization, the survival range of the extreme tribe has expanded to the entire sea of ​​storms , and built the entire underwater world into a city.In its heyday, this underwater city was home to billions of people from the Extreme Realm, as well as envoys from tens of thousands of civilizations.It's a pity that the good times didn't last long.Hundreds of years later, the Jijing tribe migrated as a whole, and the home planet became a forbidden zone for idlers, and this magnificent underwater city fell due to this.Thousands of years later, all that remains here are ruins.

Seeing the ruins in front of him, Yang Yi also sighed.

Even if it is just a ruin, one can imagine how prosperous it was more than 4000 years ago.However, not everyone is suitable to live here.

The point is, the city was built on the ocean floor.

"there."

Hearing Amy's words, Yang Yi turned to look at her, and then flew in the direction Amy pointed.

Although the resistance of the sea water was great, it did not become a problem for Yang Yi and Amy.In fact, both of them had energy barriers on their bodies, so they didn't come into contact with sea water.

After a while, a light appeared ahead.

It was a submarine crater, and the light came from the magma.However, the crater was covered by a huge energy barrier. After the magma reached the crater, it was blocked by the energy barrier, and instead of erupting from the crater, it cooled rapidly and then sank.

When he came near the crater, Yang Yi saw that the energy barrier came from under the surface near the crater.

In other words, the device that creates the energy barrier is underground.

In addition, the vicinity of the crater is full of solid lava, that is, cooled magma.Obviously, this volcano has existed for a long time, and it has been in a state of eruption, constantly spraying magma outward.The energy barrier covering the crater is not actually to prevent the magma from erupting, but to prevent the loss of energy.It is also because of the existence of this energy barrier that the magma in the crater has never cooled.

"is it here?"

"It should be here." Amy nodded slightly, and said, "In the beginning, those spaceships were placed near the crater. Although there are large-scale original energy converters on the spaceship, due to technical limitations, it is impossible to work all the time. Regular maintenance and inspection. In order to ensure the environment in the ecosphere, it is necessary to use the energy of the volcano. Simply put, when the large-scale original energy converter on the spacecraft is being maintained, the energy provided by the volcano drives the operation of the ecological device to ensure the ecological environment. The environment in the circle will not deteriorate rapidly. That is why the crater has to be protected by an energy barrier. As expected, the spacecraft is below the surface."

"We go in through the crater."

Amy was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, expressing that she understood what Yang Yi meant.

Although it is not difficult to create a passage on the ground, they do not know the exact location of the spaceship, so they may destroy the spaceship.There is no such problem when entering from the crater. As for the high temperature in the volcano, it is obviously nothing to the two strong men with holy artifacts.In addition, if a hole is made in the ground, the whereabouts will be exposed, and at least there will be traces of two people who have been here.

Entering the crater, Amy followed Yang Yi closely.

Although the high temperature is not a threat, Amy can't see anything inside the crater, and her ability to perceive the original energy fluctuations is obviously not as good as Yang Yi.

Fortunately, Yang Yi knew which direction to go.

Not long after, the two emerged from the magma.Still inside the volcano, just inside a huge room made of some special material.

"This……"

"We should be inside the spaceship." Yang Yi pointed to the door behind him, that's where they came in, but Amy didn't see it before. "Obviously, the materials used to make the spacecraft's hull can withstand the high temperature of the magma, and the spacecraft has a set of energy circulation devices."

Amy nodded and didn't say much.

They were indeed inside the ship, a ship that was built over 5000 years ago to bring refugees from the Galactic Confederation to the Southern Alpha system.

Of course, this is also a spaceship built by humans with the most advanced technology at that time more than 5000 years ago.

Because long-distance navigation across the star system has been considered during construction, these spacecraft are not only equipped with powerful large-scale original energy converters, but also have a complete ecosystem.Simply put, a spacecraft is a small ecosystem that can continue to operate for tens of thousands of years.As long as the original energy converter on the spacecraft is still working, the ecosystem on the spacecraft can operate normally.However, when these spacecraft were built, no one knew what the vast universe between star systems was like, such as whether there was enough original energy, so human scientists thought of the need to improve energy utilization efficiency when designing, In other words, the spacecraft is equipped with an energy circulation system.Simply put, it is to minimize the loss and make full use of the limited energy.

As for the materials used to make the hull, especially the outer shell, they are not only extremely strong, but also resistant to high temperatures, and can still maintain basic physical properties in environments with huge temperature differences.Otherwise, it is impossible for these spacecraft to remain intact during the long voyage.

Obviously, the design life of this spacecraft must be more than 1 years.

As long as it is not damaged, the equipment on this spacecraft may continue to operate for tens of thousands of years, or even longer.In fact, this is enough to show that the humans of the second era are indeed powerful, and the technology they master is extremely advanced, otherwise it would be impossible to create such a durable spaceship.
