Apocalyptic starship

Before leaving the hotel after breakfast, Rubik's Cube received an electronic message from the owner of the bounty point. Maybe it made him angry, so he sent it to Rubik's Cube as soon as a good bounty appeared. Rubik's Cube is not a bounty hunter in the first place. The professional arresters were just passing by to make soy sauce, but the content information made Rubik's Cube very interested. It must be said that life is so full of drama.

"What kind of reward is that?" Xiaoke asked the Rubik's Cube in the car returning to the airport.

"Go to a planet that has been abandoned for many years and is not suitable for survival to find a few missing people. One of them is a space biology scientist, his assistant and two mercenaries. They are also professional scientists who have studied space biology for many years. The handsome shop owner said that he I have studied the high-level Zerg eyeballs for many days, and I think he must know some information about the Zerg.”

"You mean there are Zerg species on that deserted planet? Looking at the star map, it's very close to here."

"Who knows, that planet was inhabited many years ago, but the environment became too bad to survive. This kind of thing is very common in the universe. I don't know if that environment is suitable for the reproduction of Zerg."

Rubik's Cube was lying on the chair and looking at the prosperous world outside the bus. The Zerg. The parasites here have not been solved yet and another Zerg has appeared. There are endless troubles one after another. Under the surface of seemingly peace and tranquility, everything is everywhere. They are all pustules that may develop at any time. Go ahead and make a fuss. The robots will still live their own lives anyway. At worst, there will be another space war. It won’t be the first time anyway.

The airport is getting closer and closer, and the mechanical dog will also report to the Rubik's Cube what happened after it stopped at the airport.

Those guys really sent people to enter the spaceship to do something, but they tried many methods but couldn't open the door of the spacecraft. They couldn't afford to destroy it by force, so they could only look at a ship that was much larger than their own spaceship. The spaceship is parked at the airport.

Get off the car at the airport, board the spaceship and start taking off. The broken spaceship flies up into the sky and disappears into the sky...

…………

Six hours later.

The spacecraft approached a planet that was gray and occasionally flashed with white dots. After careful scanning, it was found that the gray was rock and soil, while the white dots were a large amount of water vapor. The strange thing was that the water vapor appeared and disappeared, and it was raining in many places on the planet's surface. , it stands to reason that such a place with abundant rain should not be abandoned.

"Preparing to enter the atmosphere, the scientific research spacecraft landed in the ruins of a city. It is estimated that the city ruins have been abandoned for at least two thousand years."

Rubik's Cube started the manual driving program to control the spacecraft to approach the planet, enter the atmosphere, and drag a long white trail straight to the abandoned city. More water vapor means that the airflow is chaotic. It is different from the ordinary turbulence on the earth. The airflow here is more turbulent, and even the spacecraft They were all turbulent, and the messy modified spaceship was making clanging noises as if it would disintegrate in the air at any time...

"What on earth did those guys do to the spacecraft? This small spacecraft shouldn't be like this!" The mechanical dog was furious and felt that the spacecraft was like an iron barrel.

"Idiots dismantle a lot of powerful equipment to make room for installing various equipment needed by humans. Increased comfort means decreased performance." Rubik's Cube said while controlling the spacecraft.

After passing through layers of clouds and fog, they finally saw the ground. Rubik's Cube and Xiaoke were surprised. The abandoned planet had its own characteristics, such as fountains that suddenly appeared and disappeared everywhere. This was the real fountain, such as a certain hole. No, suddenly a fountain with a height of more than a thousand meters rushed out. It appeared and disappeared suddenly. The eruption stopped after two seconds, and the water splashed all over the sky. The shortest one was dozens of meters high. Years of eruptions have cleaned up the stone at the entrance of the cave. There were no rocks flying into the sky.

Quickly click on the computer to search for the locations of all the fountains and mark them on the screen with red dots everywhere.

The intermittent fountain lasted for who knows how many years. It also showed that the planet was indeed very unstable and unsuitable for living things to survive here. To be precise, it was not suitable for fragile creatures like humans to survive.

The spacecraft flew carefully and landed on a huge flat rock.

"Xiao Ke, you'd better put on a mecha helmet. There is insufficient oxygen outside and contains a lot of toxic air. Bring a gun. Being abandoned by humans does not mean it is abandoned by other creatures."

Rubik's Cube took out the folding firearm, opened it to turn into a long gun and popped out the bayonet. When he saw Xiaoke put on his helmet, he opened the hatch.

Tsk...the sealed hatch opens.

The mechanical dog jumped out of the hatch first and landed on the ground to check for warnings. Its huge one-eye scanned back and forth, followed closely by Rubik's Cube and Xiao Ke, who were holding long guns. They carefully checked around and confirmed that there was no threat. After confirming that there was no threat, they quickly ran to an ordinary scientific research spacecraft in the distance. The spacecraft is not big and has a low level of technology, but it is still intact without being damaged.

When he came to the spacecraft and took a closer look, Rubik's Cube stepped forward to break the locking device and open the hatch. When the hatch was opened, he found that there was no one inside.

"It doesn't make sense? Logically speaking, the Darstar Space Code stipulates that the spacecraft must be manned. Why is there no one inside, and there are no signs of damage from the fight. Four helmets are missing. There should be four people in the spacecraft and all of them have left the spacecraft. Weapon racks There are two guns and a small amount of ammunition missing. I hope they are still alive."

After closing the hatch, Rubik's Cube looked at a huge black-gray mountain range not far away. The mountains were covered with dilapidated building ruins.

"What kind of mountain is that?" Xiaoke looked along the Rubik's Cube.

"That's not a mountain. It used to be a temple in the center of the city. It was originally a plain, but it rose over the long years and became a mountain range. The strange thing is that the temple on the mountainside doesn't seem to have collapsed." The robot dog next to him said, and then the huge red one-eyed man shot out a projection beam to project a picture in front of him. In the picture, the buildings were intact and there were beautiful gardens with various plants competing for beauty. Humanoid creatures wearing strange clothes walked around with smiles on their faces. After scanning and calculating the details of the buildings and combining historical data, the robot dog perfectly restored the original appearance of the city.

"This is a theocracy city. It is very likely that they do not worship any gods but some special items, such as some special minerals or some ancient technology. Of course, it is also possible that they worship a senior monk who was bored and ran here to travel. After all, many places in this universe have been created by them. Miracles."

The magic cube checked the guns and walked towards the mountains. The robot dog ran to the front to explore the way, and Xiao Ke was at the end.

Crustal movement does not necessarily create mountains. For example, harder rocks will overlap to form irregular caves. Not far away, a huge mountain space appeared in front of us. The mountain was not solid but a pile of messy rocks. There were huge long rocks everywhere, supporting the mountains in a messy way. There were also huge transparent hexagonal crystals that were four meters wide and more than thirty meters long.

Walking along the irregular passage to the middle of the mountain, you can see pools and various algae in the cave. You can also see the natives here, a group of omnivores similar to dinosaurs the size of goats.

Bang, bang, bang!

Xiao Ke fired three bursts. Three bullets from the Gauss gun penetrated a small dinosaur that rushed over. The running small dinosaur fell to the ground and slid more than two meters before stopping.

"Are you sure that those scientific researchers with only a few weapons can get through here?" Xiao Ke doubted the combat effectiveness of those people.

"There are no dead animals here. It's possible that they went somewhere else or used some special items to pass through harmlessly. After all, they have lived on the planet closest to this abandoned planet for many years. Anyway, the final target is probably the abandoned temple. Oh, these damn things are endless."

Puff, the bayonet of the gun sank into the mouth of a small dinosaur until the brain, and the knife was drawn, and the small dinosaur fell to the ground.

The mechanical dog was more violent in the front, and did not shoot. It roared and rushed forward to bite and scratch each other, completely animal fighting style.

It was quiet for a while after killing more than a dozen small dinosaurs. They also have the ability to identify danger. They killed more than a dozen accomplices in a row and remained intact. They finally found something wrong and hid one by one. The three magic cubes were too lazy to care about these creatures and continued to hurry on their way. They passed through the cracks of the collapsed rocks and gradually approached the temple.

Not long after walking, a huge crack in front of them was in front of them. There was no end to the left and right. It was more than eight meters wide. In the deep water, catfish-like creatures swam back and forth.

The mechanical dog took a few steps back and ran quickly, then jumped up and jumped over the crack.

The Rubik's Cube raised his eyebrows, and followed suit, taking a few steps back and running quickly over the crack, looking back at Xiao Ke.

Xiao Ke did not step back to help run or bend down to prepare for the jump, but put on the leg mecha and turned on the auxiliary thruster...

With a flame, he jumped over the crack and stood in front of the Rubik's Cube, and continued on his way with a blank expression. The Rubik's Cube twitched his mouth. As a mecha maker, he was actually mocked by a woman wearing a mecha. It was simply embarrassing the Mechanical Empire. He rubbed his head and continued on his way, thinking about making good use of the mecha's ability when he had time.

An hour later.

After drilling around among the huge stones and crystal pillars, he finally got out of the messy area and appeared in the open space not far from the temple.

The gray sky was drizzling, and the distant sky was full of fountains and water columns. There were also meteors and meteorites falling with long flames in the distant horizon. No matter how you look at it, it is still that bleak doomsday scene.

"Search carefully for traces on the ground. We need to find that scientist. I think he must have discovered something to come to this godforsaken planet." As soon as the Rubik's Cube finished speaking, something suddenly fell in front of him...

Pah! A pile of white excrement hit the rock in front of the Rubik's Cube.

Looking up, the three Rubik's Cubes saw a small creature similar to a terror bird flying overhead.

"Okay, I take back what I just said..."

Searching carefully, the three Rubik's Cubes dispersed and walked while looking for traces. Sure enough, Xiao Ke found traces of trampling in a remote place nearby, and the robot dog also found a shell left next to the traces. The drizzle affected the discovery of more details, not to mention that the scientific research team set out half a month ago, and it was already amazing to find traces in the rain half a month later.

"Be careful, as long as there is a threat, you can shoot and kill, safety first."

Xiao Ke nodded, raised the spear and imitated the Rubik's Cube to eject the bayonet.

The temple is very tall and large. According to the records, the humanoid creatures on this planet were originally about four meters tall. They built the temple in the way that the gods were even larger. As a result, in the eyes of Mofang and Xiaoke, it has become a huge building. It feels like a little man has entered the kingdom of giants. A row of tall gray-black stone pillars at the main entrance stand in the wind and rain, covered with traces of erosion over the years. The reliefs have long disappeared, revealing a strong sense of vicissitudes under the light brought by the falling meteors.

The mechanical dog led the way into the temple, followed by Mofang, and Xiaoke was on guard behind as he walked.

The strange thing is that after entering the temple, it became very quiet in my ears, as if the wind and rain outside did not come in. Many crystals in the temple emit weak light to provide lighting.

Turn on the muzzle lights, and two guns and two beams of light scan back and forth in the temple...

"The footprints here are completely preserved. According to the characteristics analysis, there are four people in total. Among them... one person seems to be unsteady and may have been injured. Maybe he used a hemostatic agent but no blood stains were found." The mechanical dog was grumpy while using the nose scent collection device to search again. Said that its scent collection equipment is much more advanced than the Rubik's Cube, which is a unique feature of the mechanical dog.

Cube turns on the communication system to send signals on rescue and public channels.

"Is there anyone... Zizi... We are the rescue team Zizi..." The signal was sent out and echoed in the temple, but unfortunately no reply was received.

Seeing no reply, Xiao Ke suddenly thought of a serious problem.

"What if they die? Will we not be able to get the reward or the money? You know, we have flown a long way to get here and spent a lot of time and effort, so we can't get nothing, right?" Xiao Ke was obsessed with that. Counting money makes me feel that I attach great importance to the bounty.

"It's okay. If you find a dead person, you've found it. Or you can take the bones and all the belongings back to them."

"That's pretty much it."

Continuing to walk forward, the floor tiles are tattered and uneven. There are many cracks and small dinosaur nests in many places. Water drips from above. The whole temple is seriously damp.

"Didi! An unknown signal was found." The detection equipment searched for a weak signal. After analysis and restoration, it was found to be a universal distress signal in the universe, similar to the Earth's SOS. The mechanical dog immediately took the lead and rushed to the signal emission point. Rubik's Cube and Xiaoke held guns tightly. After taking it with you...

The mechanical dog got into the pile of rocks, and soon appeared in front of Rubik's Cube and Xiao Ke with a helmet in its mouth. What was disgusting was that there was a highly decomposed human head inside the helmet. It was rotten and swollen and stuck in the helmet and couldn't get out. If it weren't for the abandoned planet environment If it wasn't conducive to rot, it would have turned into a pile of mud. The mechanical dog was holding it in its mouth just now. Xiaoke always felt like vomiting and felt sour in his stomach when he thought of this.

"This unlucky guy was bitten up and eaten by a small dinosaur. Maybe his head was stuck in the helmet and he couldn't eat it. Let me take a look at the facial bone scan."

The Rubik's Cube squatted down, and used his eyes to shoot fan-shaped beams to scan the face of the skull and restore its appearance. He then calculated the age based on the age of the bones and successfully restored its appearance. She is a woman, in her thirties, and she is a professor in the scientific research team. It is completed. For a quarter of the mission, find a pile of rocks to hide your head and videotape it to explain the situation so you can submit the reward.
