Chapter 198： Weird zero prime reaction

In a short time, five people boarded the shuttle, and as the lifter slowly lifted, the cabin door at the end of the upper landing deck of the hangar opened upward.

Start the engine, push the throttle stick forward, and the shuttle is like a koi leaping out of the water, quickly leaving the mothership and flying towards an area on the top of the ruins.

The entire relay station is in the shape of a ship rudder. The roulette is composed of two rings, one large and one small. The inner ring should be used to stabilize the wormhole, while the larger outer ring is an array of energy equipment. The outermost "rudder stock" part may be some auxiliary functions.

According to the picture returned by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, Tang Fang set the landing location of the shuttle on a "rudder" with the most energy slots at the top of the relay station. Judging from the direction of the energy slots on the entire ruins surface, there is a high possibility there. It is where the control center is located.

After a short while, we entered the weak gravity zone within 10km of the ruins, the flight computer automatically adjusted the thrust direction, the shuttle decelerated forward, and slowly landed on the apron on the central "rudder stock".

Before leaving the plane, Tang Fang took out several sets of human power armor from the system space: "The situation inside is unknown, put them on."

Aros and Howson calmly took over a set of horse run armor and marauder power armor. Walton and Churchill were very excited. To be honest, they have coveted this thing for a long time, and now they are finally paying off. Wish.

Walton picked a piece of horse run armor. Churchill twirled his big eyes. He smiled and walked to the -660 Fire Bat power armor. He watched Howson's movements follow the gourd, and it took a long time to finally save He stuffed his body like a buffalo in.

Claire groaned for a moment and walked towards a piece of Ma Runjia, not wanting Tang Fang next to grab her, and with a wave of his hand, a set of -405 power armor for nurses mm appeared in front of her: "You wear this."

The girl turned her head and glanced at him, and then stepped forward to put on her clothes, and Howen had a very silly smile on her face. Pat Tang Fang on the shoulder: "Tsk, tusk, so you are so good..."

Tang Fang snorted coldly because the dog couldn't spit out ivory. I didn't care, turned around and walked to the front of a set of Ma Runjia and put it on.

A few minutes later, the group was ready to go. Just as Aros was about to open the door, Grant's voice suddenly came from the communicator: "Tang Fang, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft has detected some abnormalities in the ruins. I have given you the image data. Passed on."

"Huh?" Raised his hand to indicate to a few people. Later, he walked quickly to the front of the center console and pressed several buttons on the touch panel continuously, and light and shadow flashed on the center screen. A somewhat strange scene appeared.

The rudder stock of the repeater has a building circumference of more than 60 kilometers. People stand on it as if walking on the ground. Large energy grooves are spread all over the building surface like patterns. From a distance, these patterns flash with a touch of blue. Streamer. With the huge size of the ruins, it is very sci-fi, very delicate and beautiful.

However, in the close-up aerial images collected by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, a black protrusion appears on the surface of the energy trough that is several hundred meters wide at regular intervals. Look carefully. It's like... a cocoon?

Tang Fang suddenly felt that his thoughts were drifting. How could there be creatures in the icy void? Furthermore, the skin of these "cocoons" is obviously metallic, and there is little possibility of life.

"Tang Fang, the unmanned surveillance plane captured some strange scenes again."

Grant also transmitted the footage taken by another unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, on some "rudder stock" structures. Groups of black cocoons spread all over the building surface. Every time there is a streamer on the energy trough, the black cocoon skin will light up with stars, and when viewed from a distance, it is colorful. It's really dazzling.

"It doesn't seem to be a problem, right?" Walton said his opinion. The black cocoon has a metallic color. No matter how you look at it, it is a kind of annexe of the ruins. What is the danger?

"Nehemiah has the same view, but I always feel that these black cocoons are a little abrupt. That's why you are asked to be careful." Grant explained.

Howson squeezed from behind and said with a serious face: "Intuition tells me that this thing is dangerous."

"Boom." Aros slapped his iron skull from behind: "Your instinct? That thing is less reliable than Byron's blindfold."

"Byron... how can he compare to me?" Howson yelled, twisting his neck.

Aros smiled coldly: "Don't forget, he was your leader when you were in prison."

"I..." Howson's expression froze: "That's all from the past. What I do now is much more interesting than being a pirate. In the future, he might still be famous in history."

"Puff." In the back, Walton and Churchill almost laughed, and the words "History has a long history and a long history" came out of this guy's mouth. How awkward it is to hear it. It makes people want to slap them. To die his impulse.

"Howson, are you a teaser sent by the Lord God?" Churchill rubbed the "Flame of Destruction" plasma jet on the front of his arm back and forth. As a gunner, he just loves this pair of things.

"Newcomer, you shut up." As a veteran, he was ridiculed by a newcomer, and Howson became angry immediately: "Do you want to taste the taste of bursting chrysanthemum?"

Churchill did not show any weakness: "What kind of death do you like? Barbecue? Or fried?"

"Oh! I should have thought of it." Tang Fang patted his forehead with a wry smile, and asked himself inwardly: "Have I done something wrong by getting these two people together."

"Churchill." Walton gave him a hand, and slapped a book on his chest: "Keep your baby."

Tang Fang squinted his eyes and saw five characters on the cover saying "Actors' Self-cultivation."

A gunner who wants to be an actor? Oh my god...what are these people? For a moment, he felt in a daze that the worldview was showing signs of collapse.

"You two have too much nonsense." Aros opened the hatch with a "swish", and with the power of the exoskeleton, he held Hausen in one hand and Churchill in the other, and said two "swish, swish". Throwing the two of them out of the cabin like a dead dog, turned their heads and said "let's go" to Tang Fang, and then jumped down. Tang Fang nodded, followed by Claire and Walton.

Because the relay station has a gravity compensation mechanism, several people jumped out and landed on the surface of the ruins. The pillar-shaped building with a diameter of 20 kilometers can be imagined how spectacular.

The platform on which the shuttle is parked should be an accessory facility for some unmanned maintenance aircraft. It walked forward along the connecting bridge and came to a door structure. After inspection, this is a safety door that can only be opened from the inside.

Churchill wanted to use brute force to break it open, this proposal was rejected by Tang Fang. There are two reasons: First, depending on the solidity of the ruins, ordinary weapons cannot cause damage to them at all. Second, it is necessary to know that the relay station is similar to the existence of a transportation hub. According to common sense, the Ypsilons will definitely deploy some defensive equipment on them to resist foreign enemies or drifting asteroids. If it is strong, what if the automatic defense facilities of the ruins are activated?

Just when the few people felt helpless, Grant sent a communication request. After the connection was connected, Tang Fang introduced the embarrassment they faced.

After learning about the situation on the scene, Grant transmitted the latest information obtained by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft to the built-in computer of Tang Fang's power armor.

That is a partial structure map of the ruins. The target object is the "rudder" part where several people are located. Combined with the actual image and the building structure, Emma analyzed and gave a route that is most likely to lead to the entrance.

Because there is only a distance of more than 20 kilometers, considering that it takes more time to go back to take the shuttle than to go on foot, and the air route can not detect the environment of the ruins, so after greeted 5 people, walked towards the target. .

The suspected entrance facility is located on the back. After a few people walked along the route map, the Morningstar disappeared from view.

The silver-gray building skin reflected a green halo under the shining of the power armor searchlight. The unmanned reconnaissance plane that had been following a few people cast a layer of light on the ground for several kilometers, illuminating the road in the distance. .

The void is cold, silent, and dull. The same is true for the road under your feet. There is no temperature, no ups and downs. The entire outer wall of the ruins is like a natural thing, and there is no seam.

Along the way, Clariya used infrared thermal imaging cameras, electromagnetic wave monitoring devices, photoelectric detectors and other equipment to conduct environmental inspections on the relics. The result is very frustrating. Except for the zero element energy curve that has been fluctuating, the readings of other elements including heat, electromagnetic radiation, and radioactive elements have been maintained at 0.

Howson laughed at her for making extravagant actions, but Churchill helped the girl ridicule and scolded others for being stupid. The two almost started to do it again, and in the end, Aros made the shot, letting them learn what is meant by "butt-back, flat-sand-falling geese", and the two became more honest.

Walked forward again A ray of light gradually rose on the horizon, as blue and clear as flowing water. Don't think about it, it must be near the energy tank.

"Hey, look." Claire exclaimed, and raised the multi-function detector with her palms high towards several people.

Tang Fang approached and saw that the energy curve marked with the zero source element on the display screen of the instrument had become a straight line, a straight line that was level with the maximum measured value of the instrument.

"What's the matter? The zero element reaction has always existed." Churchill mumbled.

Walton also nodded, only Tang Fang and Aros looked at each other, with a touch of worry on their faces. Churchill is right, the zero element reaction around the ruins has been kept active. But along the way, although the zero element curve has risen and fallen, there has never been such an explosive posture in front of him.

Of course, it may also be due to being close to the energy tank. In the eyes of others, this may be a reasonable explanation, but Tang Fang and Aros obviously don't think so. With the powerful technological level of the Ypsilon people, even the space-time wormholes can be opened, will it be impossible to shield the zero element reaction? how can that be!

After thinking about it, Tang Fang figured out two possibilities.
