National Star Sea Era Chapter 75

Chapter 75 Sarcoma Space (please subscribe)

 On the Qingfeng, Shen Qing looked at this operation with some amusement, and was amused by Song Chi's caution.

Of course, he just couldn't help but laugh a little. He had no objection to the cautious attitude itself, and he even quite praised Song Chi's behavior from the bottom of his heart.

 Countless Xinhuo captains die every year while exploring alien planets. They only have one life. No matter how cautious you are, you can't be too cautious.

Hearing the laughter coming from the projection light screen, Song Chi replied while controlling the drone to return.

"I have a classmate who has always regarded the word "low-key" as his life motto. What do you think my life motto is?"

 “Prudent?”

Shen Qing thought about it carefully, and finally said these two words tentatively. He originally thought that Song Chi would firmly deny him, but Song Chi actually nodded seriously and added a sentence in passing.

 “You might as well call it “robust”.”

Shen Qing covered his forehead and felt a little speechless. He was so steady. The precocious man in his memory was not like this.

Song Chi didn't care about Shen Qing's reaction. He just said it casually without any exaggeration.

On the day when Nether Energy activated the Xinghai Market Order and successfully became the Lord of the Market, the word "steady" was indeed engraved on the top page of his life dictionary, but there was nothing he could do if others didn't believe him.

  After retrieving the Hornet-class drone and confirming that there was no danger within the space curtain, the two of them controlled the airship and passed through the space curtain one after another.

This time Song Chi's Cangqiong was walking behind, while Qingfeng was leading the way. The enclosed space they were in now was the first level of the ruins that Shen Qing had mentioned before.

According to his statement, he discovered the space curtain on the side of the boulder by accident. After entering it, he discovered a crystal that sealed a blue strange object and multiple white strange objects in this closed space. box.

In the end, Shen Qing spent a lot of effort and nearly twenty hours to blast open the crystal box with the main cannon on the Qingfeng, and then obtained those rare objects.

However, after the crystal box was shattered, it was completely weathered and dissipated along with the fragments, and it is no longer visible now.

This enclosed space was not too small, with a length and width of several thousand meters, and even a height close to a thousand meters. However, it was not enough in front of the two Xinhuo airships. In less than two minutes, Song Chi Then he successfully saw the entrance to the second-floor ruins that Shen Qing mentioned.

It is a space curtain standing directly above this enclosed space. Different from the outside space curtain, this space curtain seems to be reinforced and cannot support traffic. The surface of the space curtain is filled with powerful repulsive force. Prevent all objects from approaching.

Seeing this scene, Song Chi finally understood why Shen Qing said that there was a second layer of space in the ruins. There was obviously another layer of space above this space curtain.

“The repulsive stance on this thing is extremely strong. Last time I used the Qingfeng's main and secondary guns to blast it for more than two hours, but I couldn't break it.”

“Let's try together this time. If it still doesn't work, then we are destined to have no chance of the things on top of this ruins!”

Shen Qing stared at the square space curtain above that was more than a hundred meters long and wide, clenching his fists tightly and speaking nervously.

The moment he and Song Chi teleported over this floating land, the interstellar beacon he left had dissipated. This was their last chance to explore this ruins. If they failed, they would have to wait until they returned. It will no longer be possible to deliver it to this star field in a targeted manner.

Knowing that time was running out and they had spent more than an hour on the road, the two of them no longer wasted time. The main and secondary guns on the two airships opened up their firepower and fired wildly at the space curtain above.

Boom!

Beam rays and nether energy bombs collided with the repulsive stance one after another, followed by a steady stream of explosions and roars.

 Fortunately, this space is a completely sealed area, otherwise Song Chi is really afraid that the movement will attract the terrifying enlarged version of the earthworm creature.

In this closed dark space, the concept of time is very vague. If it were not for the special timing device on the airship, Song Chi and the two would not have known how long they had been attacking repeatedly.

On the fourth hour of continuous fire coverage, the repulsive stance on the space curtain finally changed, and the brilliance flashing on it was obviously dimmed. After catching this, the eyes of the two people who were already a little numb regained their sparkle. .

 In the eighth hour of continuous fire bombardment, the exclusionary stance on the space curtain has dimmed to the extreme, and it seems that it will be completely broken at any time.

However, until the twelfth hour of the fire bombardment, this repulsive stance was still maintained firmly, with no intention of breaking.

 At the thirteenth hour, Song Chi and the two of them were already clicking the fire button completely mechanically.

 “Buzz!”

Suddenly, a crisp trembling sound came into the two airships. They looked up eagerly. In the next second, strong surprise appeared on their faces.

I saw that the repulsive stance surrounding the space curtain in the sky had completely dimmed at some point. The attacks triggered by the two airships were no longer blocked by the repulsive stance. After leaving ripples on the space curtain, It sank straight into the unknown space above the space curtain.

Overjoyed, Shen Qing subconsciously urged the Qingfeng to move towards the space curtain, but was stopped by Song Chi.

 Originally, it was just a subconscious act due to overexcitement. After Song Chi blocked and reminded him, Shen Qing quickly reacted. Then, together with Song Chi, he opened the airship door and released a drone.

During the exploration of alien space, more than 99% of Xinhuo captains will bring one or two combat robots and detection drones with them.

Even if there is no network, these two can only be controlled and moved within the range of the Xinhuo airship's own magnetic wave position, but they are still the standard equipment for most Xinhuo airship captains to explore foreign stars.

After all, even if the Xinhuo airship itself has a very limited range of magnetic wave positions, in many cases, the combat robots and drones can play a significant role.

 For example, this is the current situation.

The two drones disappeared into the space curtain one after another. The difference between them was less than one second, but the expressions of Song Chi and Shen Qing below them changed completely.

After the drone controlled by Shen Qing sank into the space behind the scenes, the image on the projection screen in his hand suddenly went dark, and the connection with the Hornet-class drone was completely lost. Song Chi is different. After just over ten hours of buffering, the brainwave remote control system has already completed buffering again, and he has once again laid a brainwave beacon on the drone, so even if there is a space curtain, he can Still haven't lost sight of the Hornet-class drone.

In the cockpit of the Qingfeng, Shen Qing turned his eyes to the communication projection screen on one side. But before he could ask about the drone, he saw the look of fear on Song Chi's projected face in the communication projection screen. It's an expression that comes after witnessing something terrible.

According to his understanding of Song Chi since childhood, what could make Song Chi lose his temper like this must be that there is something incredible in the space above the space curtain.

Almost subconsciously, he moved quickly with his hands to control the Qingfeng to deflect the hull and retreat quickly.

To the side, the Cangqiong responded a little faster than him. At the same time, Song Chi's roar also sounded on the communication screen:

 “Get out quickly!”

Turning to Song Chi, after the Hornet-class drone passed through the space curtain and reached another space above, what he saw from the perspective of the drone was also a space with a length and width of several kilometers.

Unlike the first floor, there is a cube-shaped crystal box about ten meters wide in the middle of the second floor. This crystal box emits dazzling white light, completely illuminating the entire second floor space.

Because of this, under the illumination of this white light, Song Chi saw an unforgettable sight.

One by one, sarcomlike things with a height of about 100 meters have grown all over the second level of space. There are tens of thousands of them. Not only are these sarcomas sticky, but the most important thing is that they are still beating vaguely, as if they have them all. Life in general.

In the deepest part of the second layer of space, Song Chi even saw a giant sarcoma with a height of tens of meters. The beating on this sarcoma was even more obvious. Song Chi could even vaguely see the sarcoma inside through the wall of the sarcoma. The huge and bloated monster figure, there is no doubt that the things sleeping in these tumors are all unknown creatures.

This is not the most terrifying thing. Just when Song Chi was about to control the drone to return quietly, unwilling to disturb these terrible sarcomas, he realized that it was already too late.

The previous rounds of artillery fire from the Cangqiong and Qingfeng that passed through the space curtain had completely blasted several sarcomas. At this moment, these sarcomas were shaking violently, and the dormant monsters inside had been awakened, and then As these sarcomas continued to shake, all the sarcomas in the entire second layer of space were awakened one after another.

Kakakaka!

 When the first few sarcoids that were hit were completely torn apart, the creatures wrapped in them completely emerged from the drone's perspective.

“Damn it, it's the Zerg. There are tens of thousands of Zerg sleeping on the second level, and there is also a queen.”

 When the Cangqiong and Qingfeng launched hundreds of miles away, Song Chi shouted directly without Shen Qing asking.

 When Shen Qing heard the word "Zerg", his reaction was almost exactly the same as Song Chi's. After a flash of fear in his eyes, his face darkened.

Zerg, this is a race in the star sea that is as famous as the void demon. The insect plague and the void disaster are both notorious, ranking among the top five in the entire Broken Star Sea.

At this moment, Song Chi finally understood. He had always wondered about one thing. What kind of power could destroy a star sea floating land so completely that almost no grass could grow.

 The emergence of these Zergs until now almost perfectly fits this answer.

Different from the Void Demon's bloodthirsty and murderous nature, the characteristic of the Zerg is to devour and devour everything with energy. No matter which star field this creature appears in, the final result will inevitably be that all the resources in this star field are swallowed up. , completely transformed into a completely deserted star field.

Although other star sea civilizations also plunder resources, what they plunder is the resources themselves, not the environment where the resources were born. But these Zerg are different. Wherever they go, they completely devour everything and completely devour a star field. It is completely destroyed and has no value anymore.

 In panic, both of them were a little at a loss.

Although they all came from the No. 1 Xinhuo Academy in Jiangyuan, received orthodox Xinhuo education, and knew a lot about notorious creatures like the Zerg, they all heard about it from books after all. ,have witnessed.

 When faced with it personally, they are two completely different situations.

In the end, Song Chi, who had been born in two generations, was the first to turn around. While he was recalling various information about the Zerg, he quickly called Shen Qing through the communication screen.

“Daqing, what should I say, fight or run?”

 After his roar, Shen Qing also recovered his mind, thought for a moment and replied.

“Can you roughly determine the number of Zergs?”

“It is conservatively estimated to be more than 30,000. In addition, I don't know if the queen can continue to lay eggs.”

Song Chi's reply was very quick. It was obvious that he had basically understood all the information about the Zerg above from the perspective of the drone. However, he had not finished speaking yet. He quickly added:

"Of course, it doesn't matter whether they lay eggs or not. There is no excess energy supply in the upper space. Otherwise, this group of Zerg will not choose to hibernate collectively. Without energy supply, even if the eggs hatch, the larvae will not be able to grow quickly. It's not a threat to us.”

 At this time Shen Qing said:

“In other words, what we need to deal with are more than 30,000 weak Zerg who have just woken up from hibernation and have not replenished their energy for a long time?”

Having said this, Shen Qing's meaning was actually quite obvious, and a look of eagerness appeared on his face.

Song Chi didn't have much to say about this. He actually didn't want to take action. Although the Zerg above were indeed very weak, their numbers were there after all, and he didn't want to risk fighting them.

However, since Shen Qing has expressed this intention, he can't refuse directly. After all, he can set up an anchor point and later come to this ruins through the Zhutian Market. He only needs to wait until he is strong enough to clean up these ruins. Just the Zerg race, and all the gains from this ruins will be his alone.

 But if he really does this, it is undoubtedly the behavior of a villain, and he is naturally unwilling to do such a thing.

If the person traveling with him was not Shen Qing but a passerby, or if it was not Shen Qing who brought him here this time, but he brought Shen Qing here to explore together after discovering the ruins, then he would never hesitate at this moment. Just choose to run away and wait until the follow-up strength is enough to explore again, but the key is not there.

 For Shen Qing, who has fully believed in him and played with him since he was a child, he cannot do such a thing and is unwilling to do it. This has nothing to do with being pretentious or not, but a matter of principle and bottom line for a normal person.
