Apocalyptic Black Technology System

Chapter 9 The Silent Heart

This is a planet in the ice age.

According to preliminary external measurements, the mass of this rocky planet in the third orbit of the star system is about 3.8 times that of the Earth, and it has two satellites of different sizes.

When confirming all this, some excitement flashed through Xu Youyang's heart.

This means they have found their purpose.

Then came the landing exploration.

The huge frigate sank into the atmosphere, and the first thing I saw was a vast expanse of whiteness. The surface temperature of this planet was minus 30 degrees, and it was impossible to determine which stage of the ice age it was in.

Even if this is a barren glacial planet, this temperature will not pose a problem for the Xinjing Fleet capable of interstellar navigation.

The atmospheric pressure of this planet is about 1.5 times that of the earth, but its gravity is much weaker, only about four-fifths of that of the earth.

That is to say, on this planet, you can really jump half a foot high.

The most important thing is that the oxygen content has reached 69%. According to the current preliminary detection, except for an unknown air component, other indicators are within the range that the fragile human body can bear.

These are absolutely good news.

But Xu Youyang soon realized that the possibility of life being born in such an environment is extremely high.

Although judging from the various conditions of this planet and this star system, it is obvious that there is no high-level civilization here, or even a civilization that has reached the level of Earth civilization before the end of the world, but this does not mean that there will be no living things here.

As long as the conditions are right, the long years are enough to make the probability of life birth become 100%.

Even if the current state of this planet seems to be an ice age that is not conducive to the survival of living things.

But Xu Youyang, who has seen all kinds of strange creatures, knows that those conditions that cannot survive are often imposed by humans.

Xu Youyang took a deep breath, and the frigate slowly sank to altitude. In this endless world of white glaciers, the frigate was like a small black spot, flickering slightly, and looked lonely in the empty and lifeless world.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Youyang immediately sent out all the detectors on her frigate, centered on her frigate, and radiated in all directions, exploring the surface of this planet as comprehensively as possible.

But Xu Youyang's own frigate is still descending in this endless empty world.

As the altitude decreases, the semi-arc white horizon disappears, and the circular planet becomes flat and open in the field of vision. There is not even a trace of other traces on the ice layer that spreads along the ground, like a natural work of art .

There are no visible buildings or creatures on the ground, but everything looks so desolate, but it seems to be full of infinite possibilities.

Wang Han, who hadn't spoken much, couldn't help sighing: "This is infinite possibility...the universe is wild, there are so many planets, and there are no traces of any living beings ever setting foot...this...if human beings can enter the era of space immigration, then It is estimated that everyone's back garden can be as big as a football field, right?"

Many people feel this way.

Compared to such a planet,

Earth is just too crowded.

Some people couldn't help but echoed, "Yes, maybe you can buy a house like this for a dollar then?"

"People don't have to go out, family gatherings rely on virtual projection technology, and shopping relies on robots..."

There was a small upsurge of discussion on the bridge, and the vast and bright world lifted the spirits of many people, almost forgetting the previous decline.

Xu Youyang just smiled lightly at this, and stared at the white world under his feet.

She's going to use her frigate to cut through the ice to see what's down here.

This is the suggestion given by the frigate's AI brain. In this harsh environment, creatures are likely to exist under the ice.

Unknown creatures, even uncivilized creatures, may pose a threat to humans.

It is Xu Youyang's task to eliminate the threat.

So instead of joining the discussion, she was going to hurry up.

Of course, at the same time, her email was also sent out immediately, and sent to the Wanderer located one light-year away from the star system through the quantum communicator.

...

same moment.

On the Wanderer.

Xu Youyang's good news was transmitted almost immediately, and Yuan Licheng chose to announce the news immediately.

A cold environment is not a problem, a resource-rich rocky planet is the hope.

That is the rising hope.

This good news made many people feel excited, wishing to rush to that planet immediately.

At this time, Su Ran was in his own room.

Seeing this news, Su Ran also let out a long breath. Compared with confirming the existence of rocky planets, what he cares more about is that Xu Youyang mentioned in the feedback information that there is no danger for the time being and no traces of other advanced civilizations have been found. .

The presence or absence of rocky planets is only of general importance to Su Ran. The Xinjing Fleet has the Wanderer, which is itself a space platform. The ecosystem inside the Wanderer can fully maintain the life of the entire fleet. , gas giants can also be targets for resource extraction.

The inferior Enlightenment-class battleships may not be able to travel through the harsh gas giant planets, but there is no problem with the battleships of the Cloud City and the Wanderer. They can wander in the gas giant planets like taking a bath , like a huge monster Leviathan cruising among the giant planets.

What matters is whether civilization exists.

Su Ran thought for a while, and sent a message to Li Yilan on the bridge to make the Wanderer move and start moving towards the star system.

The distance of one light-year, of course, cannot be relied on to fly. Su Ran can't afford to delay such time. In the end, we still have to rely on the leap, but the Xinjing Fleet in action will undoubtedly help people to realize the arrival of hope. .

Immediately afterwards, Su Ran invested most of his spare resource points in the manufacture of medical supplies to ensure the needs of the wounded in the fleet.

And just now, Su Ran received the latest news from the frigate Li Hexuan that Captain Tong Miaoqiu's vital signs had stabilized and he was completely out of danger.

After doing this, Su Ran let out a long breath, as if she felt a moment of relaxation in her heart.

His eyes turned to the boundless starry sky outside the porthole.

The "close at hand" star system is only a slightly brighter light-year to the eyes.

And the earth and the solar system are in the countless light spots behind this light-year.

Earth.

home.

old joe.

Looking at this seemingly bottomless dark starry sky.

Su Ran was in a trance for a moment.

Has he really changed anything?

Or pushed the earth into a deeper abyss?
