Chapter 275： Earth Two. Zero

"Well, indeed."

After hearing William's words, Hawkser also agreed with his point of view.

"Boss." At this moment, Serena walked to William's side and whispered: "All the data has been copied."

"Okay." William nodded lightly, and smiled at Hawker:

"Colonel, your colonial ships will stay here for the time being before we determine whether this civilization is really gone, and Umbrella's fleet will be responsible for your safety."

"Hehe, rest assured, we won't leave until the matter is over."

As the commander of a UNSC fleet, Hawkser certainly knew about the ‘abnormal phenomenon’, so he agreed very cooperatively.

"Thank you."

William still responded with a smile, and took Serena and USS to leave the bridge of each other's flagship, preparing to return to the Infinity.

While William and others left the bridge, an officer with the rank of major walked to Hawker's side.

looked at the automatic door of the bridge and wondered: "Colonel, the secretary next to the boss... can the pupils shine? Is it Umbrella's some kind of black technology?"

"Who knows, Umbrella has too much technology beyond the current era, and the boat you are stepping on now is bought by UNSC from them."

Talking, Hawker returned to the captain's position and ordered all crew members:

"Attention everyone, from now on we must fully comply with Umbrella's schedule to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."

"Yes, Colonel."

...

After half an hour, the battle preparation bay of the Infinity.

William, Halsey, Serena, and a large number of technicians and combat personnel are changing airtight clothing and equipment here.

Although more detailed data has been obtained from UNSC, Halsey still needs to lead her research team and land directly on the surface of Kepler 22-b to conduct surveys.

William, who was already wearing a **** paratrooper's individual equipment and being debugged by technicians, also chose to land with Halsey and others to the surface.

While protecting Halsey personally, William also hopes to witness the ruins with his own eyes.

There are many people involved in this operation. Not only the exploration team on Infinity, but also the researchers accompanying the entire Zero Fleet will land on the surface under the protection of combat personnel.

After all, there are a lot of relics on Kepler 22-b. It requires multiple teams to survey and research together to save time and improve efficiency.

The battleships of the 　　 fleet stay in low-Earth orbit and are responsible for long-range fire support and protection of the UNSC colonial fleet.

When William and others returned to the Infinity, the remaining warships entered the atmosphere in formation and hovered over the mainland of the northern hemisphere of Kepler 22-b.

Each battleship went to the sky above the corresponding ruins, and the Infinity came to the larger ruins complex and was researched by the most experienced Halsey.

Speaking of Halsey.

She had already put on a white sealed protective suit, wearing a dark yellow engineering mechanical skeleton, and came to William's side.

The group of researchers behind her, and Serena are also dressed like this.

In fact, Serena, who is equipped with a prosthetic body, is not afraid of any biological infection at all. The reason why she wears protective clothing is to prevent discomfort from the humans who travel with her.

Immediately afterwards, a group of **** paratroopers, marines, and heavy soldiers who were ready to continue gathered in front of William.

Among this group of combatants, Spartans wearing Thor's hammer armor are indispensable.

Seeing this, William didn't say anything extra, he just turned and walked towards the gate of the combat preparation cabin, and whispered in a low voice with a wave of his hand: "Go."

"Yes."

Along with the answering sound from the communication, the ground crew also opened the gate of the combat preparation bay leading to the fourth area of ​​the hangar.

The gate opened, and ten Mammoths with engineering shovel on the front of the car body were seen. They had started their engines and were waiting for the crew to board.

There are also ten assault-type MS fuselages, equipped with air combat backpacks standing in the hangar, as the **** aircraft for this reconnaissance operation.

A large number of people poured into the hangar and boarded the Mammoth in their respective formations.

After the personnel boarding was completed, the Mammoth drove to the designated location one by one, and was sent into the elevator cabin by the giant robotic arm.

As for the assault on the MS, the assistance of a robotic arm is not needed. The pilots just use the anti-gravity system to ‘float’ to the platform of the elevator cabin.

The gate connecting the elevator cabin and the hangar was closed, and the cabin began to spray white mist of disinfectant.

Since Kepler 22-b's atmospheric environment is similar to that of the earth, there is no decompression or pressurization treatment in the elevator cabin.

When the emerald green light radiated, the platform of the elevator cabin was separated from the Infinity hull, and it was exposed to the environment of Kepler 22-b, carrying the Mammoth and the Assault MS.

The platform continued to descend, ignoring the bushes at the bottom, and pressing out an area by its own weight.

stopped, the pilots immediately let the Mammoth and Assault MS leave the platform to the surface of Kepler 22-b.

The platform rose, returned to the Infinity, and received a thorough disinfection treatment by the technicians.

Then, a group of Mammoth and Assault MS was used as a group to move towards the group of relics that needed to be surveyed and researched.

The Mammoth, carrying William and others, drove through this rainforest similar to the earth while attacking MS to clear the way and using engineering shovel.

After a short while, the Mammoth and Assault MS arrived at their destination.

The remains of the alien civilization complex.

Mammoth opened the hatch on the rear side of the car for William and others to leave the carriage.

The assault mobile suit equipped with an air combat backpack turned on the anti-gravity system and flew to the sky above the ruins group with propellers ~ www.novelhall.com ~ responsible for monitoring the entire area.

...

"Goo~! Gooo~!"

"Huh~! Huh~!"

Next to the densely shaded woods, there are unknown birds crowing on them, and some small stuffed animals are jumping in the grass.

William, wearing a pitch-black individual armor, is standing on a square made of flat stone bricks, looking at the rainforest behind the Mammoth’s body.

Through the various functions of the mask, I found that the jungle is full of vitality, and the appearance of many animals is similar to that of the species on earth.

‘Otherwise, when NASA announced Kepler 22-b, someone would call it Earth 2.0. "William thought.

I saw the researchers and combat personnel in front of him, moving all kinds of detection equipment out of the carriage, and using the Mammoth as the base platform, they began to build an outpost.

As for Halsey, who has returned to a ‘scientific madman’ again, under the **** of John and others, he went deep into the ruins and began to investigate.

Standing next to William was Serena, and several **** paratroopers belonging to the Madtooth Shark Company.

"Boss, let's enter the interior of the ruins, too." Serena said.

"Okay, let's go."

William, who was admiring the planet, heard Serena’s suggestion, and turned around and took her and several paratroopers to continue deep into the ruins.
