Chapter 274： Simple "stone"

At this time.

At the far end of the colonial fleet, twenty blue ‘vortexes’ of varying sizes suddenly opened up, and one by one battleship slowly sailed out of this ‘vortex’.

is drawn from the ‘　　’ printed on the side of each ship and the red and white umbrella logo. This is the zeroth fleet that belongs to Umbrella and is led by William himself.

After exiting the transition space, the fleet immediately adjusted its direction and posture, and merged towards the UNSC colonial fleet.

Finally, the two fleets were temporarily mixed and moored together over Kepler 22-b's low-Earth orbit.

...

Infinity’s hangar.

William, dressed in a brand new uniform, walked to a black-painted Pelican with a group of USS also dressed in Umbrella uniforms.

It seems to be going to the flagship of the colonial fleet via the Pelican, discuss matters with the UNSC leader, and obtain more useful information.

Although the USS responsible for William’s safety is not equipped with biochemical armor, and the firearms are only equipped with pistols, each USS’s psychic power has reached PI5.

And William himself also has good combat power.

Besides, this time is just a normal visit process. The leaders of both sides met and asked each other to be polite to each other.

If it is to be escorted by combat personnel wearing individual equipment, it will inevitably make a fuss.

"Boss!"

When the group was about to enter the Pelican cabin, William heard Serena calling him.

stopped and turned around, and found that Serena was rushing towards her.

I saw her wearing Umbrella’s female military uniform, black high-tube stockings, and her facial makeup seemed to be well-dressed.

Seeing Serena, even William couldn't help but focus more on her.

Soon, Serena came to William's side and said: "Boss, I will go with you."

?

Upon hearing this, William also regained his senses and asked: "Are you here too? But about the fleet..."

"No matter where I am, I can make the fleet operate normally, and I am not the only artificial intelligence on Infinity."

Serena didn't wait for William to finish speaking, so he couldn't refute it.

"This…"

William always felt that the nearest Serena was a bit strange, but he didn't care too much, and then he stepped into the cabin of the Pelican.

and said: "Okay, you follow along, just to help me copy on the spot, and analyze the data obtained by the UNSC."

"Yes~!"

Seeing William's agreement, Serena changed her serious face and immediately turned into a smiling face and followed William as she approached the cabin.

"..."

As for the USS next to them, they maintained a non-self-interested attitude throughout the whole process and also boarded the Pelican.

Next.

Under the guidance of the ground crew, the pilot taxied the Pelican to the designated area of ​​the hangar, and was transferred to the decompression chamber by the robotic arm.

Decompression.

Open the gate.

left the Infinity and flew towards the flagship of the colonial fleet.

After reporting his intentions to the bridge of the flagship and the code of the Pelican he was piloting, the pilot was approved to enter the ship.

Follow the prompts to enter the decompression chamber designated by the other party, connect with the fixed arm, and enter the hangar after the pressurization is completed.

Since the colonial ship is a civilian version modified from a Phoenix-class aircraft carrier, the overall structure, including the hangar, has not changed much.

just...

"Boss, the environment here is a bit messy, it's incomparable with the company's battleship."

It's just that when William and his party left the Pelican and came to the other's flagship hangar, Serena, who was a little bit clean, couldn't help but complain.

The environment here cannot be said to be dirty, messy and poor, but the overall style is ‘steel’, which is somewhat depressing.

The lights are dim, there are faint traces of rust on the corners of the deck, and various sundries are piled up in the hangar.

Compared with Umbrella's neat and bright style, the environment here is indeed dirty, chaotic, and poor.

William also couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Serena's complaint.

and whispered: "The company's cleaners all have a salary of 10,000 yuan, and your boss, I like the bright feeling, of course they can't compare it."

While speaking, William saw a group of officers wearing UNSC Marine Corps uniforms walking towards them.

"Okay, no matter how you say it here, it's someone else's place. Don't stand in front of others and say those things just now."

"Yes, boss."

Serena nodded and turned back, and then stood beside William silently, being a quiet ‘female secretary’.

Soon, UNSC officers approached.

Headed by 　　 is a commander in the mid-forties, with a strong face, a strong figure, and the rank of colonel.

William, by observing the name plate on his left chest, also found the true identity of the other party, Il Hokzer.

"Hello, Major UNSC, Il Hawkser."

"The owner of Umbrella, William Russell."

The two reached out and shook each other's hands, and briefly introduced themselves.

Immediately afterwards, UNSC officers led everyone to the flagship bridge. As the guide, Hawker walked side by side with William to provide information about Kepler 22-b.

Colonel Il Hawkzer is the supreme commander in charge of everything in the colonial fleet.

When he came to the bridge, William asked Serena to copy all the relevant information to provide suggestions for the reconnaissance force that was about to enter Kepler 22-b.

next to the center console of the bridge.

Using Umbrella’s holographic projection technology to present to everyone present, the image of the remains taken by the reconnaissance plane at high altitude.

I saw a large number of man-made buildings in trees and broad-leaved forests similar to those on the earth.

These buildings are not like houses in the city, but guessed from the giant statues, they are more like some kind of altar.

holographic video, slowly changing positions with the reconnaissance aircraft being shot.

Finally, what William, Serena and USS saw is a ‘pyramid’ made of giant stone bricks.

It seems that every civilization with high wisdom seems to have the ‘habit’ of building pyramids.

"Everyone."

At this time, the Colonel Hawker said: "We learned from our monitoring equipment that the building materials of these relics are similar to the granite on the earth and belong to the common stone materials of Kepler 22-b.

The researchers who accompany us speculate that the civilization of this planet should not have entered the interstellar phase, and that it is more likely that it has disappeared because of the plague or the conflict between various tribes. "

"Your scientific researchers are a bit too arbitrary." William shook his head and smiled: "What we have seen are the relics of alien civilizations. Using natural stones does not prove their backwardness, and they are even more'foresight'.

If we humans disappear suddenly and no one will take care of and maintain the high-rise buildings we are proud of, it will only take hundreds of years for the earth to smooth out the traces of our human beings entering the so-called ‘modernization’.

There are only plastics, which can prove that we humans have been brilliant.

It is the pyramids of Egypt, the Great Wall of China, the temples of Maya and other ancient relics, but they can last for thousands of years.

If we humans disappear suddenly, after tens of thousands of years, only these ancient relics will remain on the earth, and it is impossible to prove that we humans have reached the ability to cross galaxies.

So please your scholars not to negate one thing arbitrarily. "
