Interstellar Mecha Life

Chapter 7

Any act of breaking into the atmosphere, even with the protection of a protective cover, is bumpy.Even a normal shuttle landing is not always pleasant, let alone a passive intrusion in such an out-of-control state.

Judging from the degree of turbulence and the speed of the shuttle, the driver is already trying his best to reduce the speed with reverse thrust, but obviously this is still too small and insignificant compared to the gravitational force received by the shuttle itself.

Qi Yue thought, she guessed right.This kind of gravitational force is definitely not ordinary planetary gravitational force, but some strange force.

Too powerful and too targeted.

She also inevitably felt uneasy.

McDull was still reporting the speed numbers in her ears.It has entered the internal system of this shuttle, and obtained a lot of sensor signals and data of the planet itself.Under Qi Yue's questioning, the data of the planet itself was also refined and sorted out by it.

"The air composition is similar to that of Saturn and Jupiter. 90.00% hydrogen, [-]% helium, and a small amount of methane and ethane.

The planet is a gas planet with a density of 9.9 grams per cubic centimeter, a gravitational acceleration of 58, and a rotation period of [-] hours and [-] minutes at the equator.... "

When each item of data was reported, Qi Yue thought to himself: Not only the atmosphere, but also all attributes are very similar to Jupiter.

gas planet.It's a really bad thing.

This means that unless there are enough floating devices, they cannot leave the shuttle, and with such atmospheric conditions and temperature conditions, it is estimated that there will be no life here-at least they cannot be used as food.

No... don't think about this kind of stuff.

The N-shuttles are equipped with oxygen generators and also have the necessary emergency storage of food and water.Even in critical situations, it can produce water and synthesize food through technological means using elemental synthesis.

The visibility outside is very low, the gas is thick, and the wind speed is high. Under such circumstances, once a single escape pod or even a small escape pod is lost, it will be difficult to find it again, right?
Just thinking about this, the shuttle has returned to the previous chaotic state, even more terrifying than when it was in the wormhole.

"What's going on! Why are we falling?" Someone yelled, "Don't lie to me! This is obviously a falling state! This speed is absolutely abnormal!"

"My God - we're going to die!"

"Why? Why is this?"

"I want to go home...let us go home—!"

The constant crying made Qi Yue feel a headache.She can't stand the noise, especially when she's thinking.So when her lab was built, she installed almost the highest soundproofing she could afford.If she didn't use the communication device, even if there was a large-scale explosion outside, she could only feel the silent vibration.

Suriel grabbed Qi Yue's hands red, but at least she didn't make an annoying scream.On the contrary, because of Qi Yue's previous reminder, she was prepared to a certain extent. At this moment, she was afraid, nervous, and at a loss, but a little calmness still appeared in her mind, enabling her to maintain clarity.

This is not so easy for a girl.

Qi Yue closed his eyes to feel the movement of the shuttle, and murmured, "Now the speed has dropped. As the external density increases, the speed of the shuttle will become slower and slower."

Through several times of obstacles and McDull's calculations, Qi Yue can conclude that the inexplicable gravitational force that brought them to this planet has disappeared.If this state can be maintained, the cab can even restart the shuttle and leave here.

Following her words, the speed of the shuttle slowed down.

"The pilot would then initiate an escape procedure, attempting to leave the planet...."

Suriel quietly listened to Qi Yue's words, his hands gripped tighter and tighter, obviously extremely nervous.

"Qi Yue! We...we are ascending!" She exclaimed in a low voice, with joy on her face.However, when she saw the look on Qi Yue's face, she realized that things were far from that simple.

"When the shuttle reaches a certain height, that mysterious gravitational force may appear again."

As he said that, he had already entered a rising state, and the entire fuselage with initial velocity seemed to be caught by something, and began to fall again...

"Sure enough. There is something that doesn't want us to leave." The expression on Qi Yue's face could not be called fear and anxiety, but it was not relaxed either.She is not the protagonist who is always confident in those comics or novels.They don't know if they can get out of here without rescue.How long will you be trapped again.Now their only hope is that communication will not be interrupted.

"Qi Yue, then... what should we do?" Suriel has already become dependent on the pale little girl next to him who is smaller than him, looks thinner and paler.Everything she's said so far has been true—she's even predicted it.

"Wait." Qi Yue frowned, looking at the chaotic atmosphere in the cabin and the increasingly frightened crowd.

The shuttle was not completely full, but there were more than 300 people.When most of them realize that the shuttle cannot escape, some people will probably propose to leave the shuttle.

Although the outside is also unknown, under normal circumstances, most people always think that staying on the shuttle is waiting for death.

Because the coefficient of friction has been reduced to a certain extent, the shielding device outside the window is cancelled.People can see the endless yellow sand desert through the windows, and the desolate and terrifying natural environment further increases the chaos in the cabin.

Within two seconds, the shield reappeared.Sometimes, not knowing is a kind of happiness.

"Qi Yue." McDull said suddenly, "There are other humans on this planet."

This is a gas planet, and there is not enough oxygen in the atmosphere. At present, humans do not have the ability to live in such harsh conditions.In other words, those people were probably brought here just like them.

Another point is that if McDull knows this, it means that the driver also knows this situation.

It's time for them to talk.No matter who is sitting in the cockpit in front, whether it is incompetent or capable, it is impossible to keep silent at this time.Even the flight attendants in the passenger cabin were too panicked to say a word of comfort.

If this continues, even if they can successfully escape, they will die.

"Passengers, please don't panic. Due to the failure of the navigator, our current coordinate position has deviated. And our escape power system cannot be activated normally due to the influence of the electromagnetic pulse of the wormhole. But we have not lost contact with the company, and the center has Tell us that a rescue team will arrive here soon. Please wait patiently, and enjoy the food, drinks, and wonderful programs provided by Seventeen Dimensions."

As soon as the voice fell, all the previously interrupted TV programs returned to normal.And the panicked people in the cabin were finally comforted.

"In that case, it should be all right, right?"

"Hey, why are there always malfunctions... next time I won't make a seventeen-dimensional shuttle!"

"But the seventeenth dimension is cheaper..."

"Cheap is not good, don't you know?"

Of course, among the more than 1000 people, there are also those who are sensitive and find that what the driver said may not be true.At least it is concealed.

"Liar! They are lying!" Voices like this appear from time to time, but after all, more people still believe what the driver says.Moreover, those who shouted to be a liar failed to come up with any convincing words to convince everyone, they just shouted liars and liars.

Someone looked at the hunchbacked man who stood up and spoke, and he stood up at this time, nodded and said: "We have not lost contact with the alliance. You can try it, and you can still connect to the Internet."

After hearing this, everyone took out their own equipment to try.

"Sure enough!"

"Oh my god, that's great!"

"If you don't lose contact, you should be fine."

When Qi Yue looked at that person and heard him say these things, for some reason, there was always a strange feeling.The man just turned to Qi Yue, and when he met her eyes, he showed an extremely friendly and kind smile.His eyes... are swirls!

Qi Yue was startled, and looked closely, only to find that everything was normal.This man is like countless ordinary people in the alliance, with the most common dark brown pupils.

You must have read it wrong.she thinks.

The shuttle was completely motionless, as if floating in the air.The message sent back by McDull told Qi Yue that the driver had turned off all the power engines, apparently they also thought it was unwise to waste power in this situation.

"This planet is only gravitationally abnormal, but communication has not been interrupted. A total of sixteen shuttles of different sizes are trapped here, including three personal shuttles, two mini-shuttles for rental, and seven spaceships. Inner short-distance passenger shuttle, four large shuttles that can cross star regions..."

"No cargo planes and inter-galactic shuttles?"

"No."

McDull's answer made Qi Yue fall into thinking.

"Besides," McDull said again, "before we arrived on this planet, the military's special team had already arrived. One of their ships was circling the planet's outer orbit, and another military special shuttle was about to enter the orbit. According to the shuttle pilot's communications, the rescue team will arrive in 10 minutes."

"Special team? Earlier than the rescue?" Qi Yue was surprised, "Does the driver know?"

McDull replied negatively: "I used the equipment on the shuttle to detect this secret frequency band. Unless there is a special decryption capability, it is impossible for a commercial shuttle to receive the military frequency band."

Qi Yue also knew this.Many of the devices on the shuttle actually have potential and can be used for multiple purposes, even meeting military standards under special conditions.But for various reasons, these functions are blocked.

This is also what Qi Yue is thankful for.In the most extreme cases, she would not mind hacking the shuttle and taking it away from this mysterious and unknown place.As for those troubles, leave it to the special teams of the military to solve it.

"Captain, don't you wait for the clerk?" After breaking into the atmosphere, twenty huge mechs formed three echelons and landed to a deeper place together.

After the dive phase was over and the communication was restored, the honest and kind San Luoluo was the first to remind.

Xing Tianhe said coldly: "She has already come."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a lander approaching them, and soon the signal light for the clerk to request communication came on.After Xing Tianhe got through the communication, everyone could see the slightly angry expression of the blonde beauty.

Daha whistled.He evidently thought the scowl made the clerk look more alluring.

"Captain Xing!" The clerk's voice was sternly questioned, "Please explain why you didn't land in the prescribed formation, and put the communication in a state of free communication!"

Xing Tianhe frowned. "I don't have time to explain now, please check the manual. In addition, the communication has been in a state of free communication. If the Su Wen clerk doesn't know how to connect, please return on your own. Every time you ask, I am very troubled."

Freedom of communication means that when two parties talk to each other, they do not need the consent of the other party, and they can speak as long as they press a special button.The request to call requires the consent of the other party to connect.

The two do not interfere with each other, but are independent.During the execution of the mission, the free call uses a special frequency band, and Xing Tianhe has already turned on this frequency band.And this commander surnamed Su obviously didn't understand this.

"Captain...what's the matter with her?" The team members were discussing, "Is such a clerk really safe?"

Although Xing Tianhe also had such worries in his heart, he still said coldly: "Concentrate on finding the abnormal gravitational area."

"Yes!"

Their formation has been fixed, the descender has changed shape and can move in the atmosphere, and the mechs surround the descender on which the clerk is riding for protection.

Ten minutes passed, and there was nothing else around except the yellow sand all over the sky and the fog so thick that the special visual aids had to be turned on.The wind outside was astonishingly loud, and the wind speed was also terrifying, almost reaching 50 to [-] meters per second.Fortunately, their equipment was developed to adapt to special operations, so they are quite adaptable to such an environment.

"Captain, there is a shuttle in the front right." York Wenhui reported: "Do you want to contact them?"

Yorkwin is equivalent to the scout in the team, and his mecha also focuses more on the ability of detection and detection. Under the same conditions, various abilities including "vision" are stronger than other mechas.

"No need." Xing Tianhe glanced at the mecha, and said, "Leave the rescue to the rescue team, we continue the mission."

"understand!"

Seventeen-dimensional N-type shuttle.When passing by the shuttle, Xing Tianhe quickly identified its model and company.

Like most people who gradually quieted down, Qi Yue turned on her reader and continued reading the general papers she had read before.At this time, McDull suddenly said: "The rescue ship entered orbit and launched five rescue mechas. But they are on the other side of the planet, and the rescue needs... seventeen and a half hours."

Qi Yue said, "What's going on in the cab?"

"Not currently. The captain is talking to other shuttles to understand the situation." McDull said.

"The rescue will not be in the order of distance?" Qi Yue asked, "I am afraid that the protective cover of the small shuttle can only last for 30-40 hours under the daylight conditions of this planet. That is three to four days... no Knowing how long they've been here, but as part of the rescue team it's definitely something to think about first."

"That's true." McDull said, "It's also said in the cab."

"McDull, correct the estimated time."

"Correction time: 75 hours before the rescue..." McDull said without any ups and downs, "We are the last to arrive, and we are also a large shuttle, so we should also be the last to survive."

Qi Yue filtered everything she knew in her mind, and finally murmured: "I'm afraid the actual time is longer than this." She had a hunch that this planet would not let them go easily.
