Apocalyptic starship

After hurriedly returning to Longshan Spaceport, Rubik's Cube and the others got off the helicopter and directly got into the cabin of the fighter jet. The sci-fi fighter jet started its engine and took off and quickly flew towards the sea. The fighter jet has detection and scanning equipment that far exceeds the technology of the earth. At least it will not be like those of the former earth's powerful countries. They brag about radar and all-weather surveillance results all day long without even knowing where a large passenger plane has fallen.

After the fighter plane took off, Rubik's Cube removed the stealth shielding system so that the Dragon Kingdom planes could see the fighter plane. Along the way, he answered several inquiries from search planes, as well as those searching for ships on the sea. Rubik's Cube simply set up an automatic response program.

At noon, the fighter plane arrived over the sea area where the passenger ship disappeared.

"We are now over the target area. If we are searching, we must not only search the sea surface but also the bottom of the sea. Who knows if that big ship is sinking in the water to feed the sharks." The wheel kept clicking on the projection display to search for possible targets.

Rubik's Cube rubbed his forehead, as if he had done this a lot more recently.

"Start scanning the undersea terrain to avoid conflicts with human aircraft. Wheel, all tasks are left to you."

The Rubik's Cube simply handed over the task to the wheel. The wheel didn't matter. It was just controlling the computer to use fighter equipment to scan the seabed images and the sea surface. It scanned a large area at once and then moved forward to search back and forth like a plow. On the projection screen, the seabed terrain was Xiaoke couldn't understand the complex graphic lines marked at all. Only a robot could clearly see the seabed topography from those complex lines, and even some sunken ships that had been wrecked for many years could be clearly identified.

"A sunken ship was found. Unfortunately, it is a warship, not from the Dragon Kingdom. There is still a large amount of radioactive material on the ship that is in an extremely unstable state." The little robot finger pointed at a red mark on the projection and said.

"Tell the Lunar Spaceport to take the time to send a spaceship to solve the problem. Those fools concealed safety risks in order to use force, but they asked us to wipe their ass when something happened. If it weren't for the fact that their country has long been extinct, they would really want to use those radioactive materials. Throw it over their heads, damn the chaebol." Rubik's Cube turned his head and looked at the sea below, unable to see anything.

On the sparkling sea, fish jump up and fall into the water from time to time. Humans have reduced the number of marine animals and they can continue to develop and grow. At least they don't have to kill whales in the name of scientific research and stuff them into their mouths.

Longguo responded very quickly. Many warships and various ships were searching the sea. There were also a large number of patrol planes flying back and forth in the sky. It was difficult to search and rescue a shipwreck unless the exact location of the accident was known and the scope could be narrowed down. Yes, it was just a little bit on the map. Son, when you stand in this sea area, you will know why the sea is called the sea. Moreover, you must use your naked eyes to observe whether there are any floating objects on the sea surface. It is not that some country is lagging behind, the whole world is doing this. You can understand it but you can't talk nonsense and think of visual search. behind.

The search was boring. Xiao Ke was rubbing his eyes due to fatigue from staring at the monitor for a long time. Rubik's Cube was still using the sighting device to check the sea surface. Two hours had passed since he arrived at the sea area...

"How long will it take for us to find that passenger ship?" Xiaoke asked while rubbing his eyes.

"You can't say for sure. If you're lucky, you'll find it in three to five days. If you're not lucky, you won't be able to find it for a month or even forever." Rubik's Cube answered straightforwardly.

"What great news."

The long search and rescue was boring. Soon, night fell. Except for warships and other ships, all planes returned. They couldn't find anything at night, so they might as well go back to rest. Each ship stopped on the spot to rest and planned to continue at dawn. The Rubik's Cube also hovered its fighter planes. Rest began over a certain reef.

A night of silence.

The search continued the next day. The red and swollen eyes and fatigue made the search and rescue personnel very tired, but they still tried hard to persist in the search.

Finally, some clues appeared. A warship found more than a dozen corpses in the marginal waters. When the corpses were found, the corpses seemed to have suffered heavy pressure injuries. Nearby aircraft and ships quickly gathered at the location, and rotary fighter jets also followed. When rushing to the location where the bodies were found, the fighter plane's scanning equipment found two bodies again, which was also unusual.

More than twenty minutes later, the fighter plane arrived next to the warship where the body was found.

A group of people on the helicopter deck behind the warship were checking the bodies. The fighter plane was hovering close to the warship. The soldiers looked at the fighter plane and continued their work.

Rubik's Cube puts on the mecha helmet and closes it.

"Xiao Ke, come with me to see those corpses. Wheeler and Grumpy will stay in the cabin on standby."

Xiaoke also put on the fully armed mecha and looked like a robot. He opened the hatch and two mecha men appeared in front of the military personnel. Then, Xiaoke started the mecha flight device and circled around before landing on the warship helicopter. On the deck, the helmet was not stowed away, so that at least it could remain hidden.

A school-level officer came over, and Rubik's Cube stepped forward to say hello, otherwise the nervous soldiers might shoot him.

"Hello, I am the captain of the Mechanical Empire team here to assist in the search for the missing passenger ship. Nice to meet you."

"Hello, I am the captain of this destroyer. I have received news that you are participating in the rescue."

The two parties shook hands. Although it was not so harmonious, at least they did not get into sex on the spot.

"If you don't mind, I want to analyze the remains of the victims in order to search for the passenger ship. My scan should be fast." Rubik's Cube wanted to see the bodies, but he had to ask the captain for permission.

The captain thought for a while. If the destroyer did not have the relevant equipment and personnel to conduct tests, he would have to wait for the amphibious assault ship to arrive. It would probably take several hours. Time was precious, not to mention that no one liked a few deformed corpses rotting on the deck. He nodded decisively and agreed to the Rubik's Cube request. , anyway, robots are famous all over the world for their fast speed and high efficiency.

Walking up to the corpses, the Magic Cube's facial mecha fired a fan-shaped red beam to scan all the corpses, and the soldiers and crew members stared at the legendary robot in a daze.

The scan was over, and the general situation was analyzed.

"These corpses floated up from the bottom of the sea. The huge pressure of the sea water destroyed their internal organs and made them like this. At present, it seems that the passenger ship is likely to have crashed. There may be survivors waiting for our rescue on the lifeboat, but the passenger ship cannot prepare a lifeboat for everyone." The Magic Cube informed the captain of the actual situation.

The captain sighed. Everyone did not want the passenger ship to have an accident, but they had to be realistic.

"The accident site should not be too far away. We don't have information about the nearby sea conditions." The captain spread his hands. Before the end of the world, he could still control the ocean currents, but after the end of the world, there was no monitoring.

"Our fighter planes can monitor and calculate ocean currents. I think we have obtained the results."

In the cabin, the rotor has calculated the ocean currents and weather conditions and obtained the results, which were sent to the Magic Cube. The Magic Cube directly projected a projection in front of the captain and other military personnel, clearly marking the possible areas where the passenger ship might have an accident. It was easy for the navy personnel to confirm these locations after all, they were doing this job.

After telling them the situation, the Magic Cube and Xiao Ke, who was still curious about the warship, flew back to the fighter plane, closed the hatch, and flexibly turned to fly to the possible area where the passenger ship might have an accident.

Sure enough, the calculation was correct. After searching for an hour according to the more precise possible accident location, more bodies were found. At the same time, the crashed passenger ship was found in a particularly deep trench. There was no trench before the end of the world. It was caused by the movement of the earth's plates during the catastrophe of the end of the world. The depth is about 6,000 meters.

The passenger ship was lying quietly in a trench as deep as 6,000 meters at this time. All the lifeboats were there, and no one escaped through the lifeboat. This surprised the Magic Cube. No matter how fast the ship was in an accident, it would not be too late to put down the lifeboat, right?

The signal was sent to the Longguo search and rescue team, and a large number of ships began to gather in the area. The patrol plane that arrived first saw the alien fighter plane hovering above the trench at this time, and received the seabed scanning image sent to them by the rotor. A large ship that was exactly the same as the crashed passenger ship was clearly visible.

Along with the rescue fleet came a large number of media. Various media had taken ships to the sea to broadcast live as soon as the passenger ship accident happened. Now, various media reporters are standing on the deck of the ship with their backs to the suspended space fighter plane to broadcast live.

"Big dog, get excited, we're on TV!"

"Little one, be careful or I'll throw you into the sea. I want to see how you can walk from the continental shelf back to the shore step by step without a propulsion device."

Mofang and Xiao Ke ignored the quarrel between Zhuanlun and the mechanical dog. Now Mofang is debugging the mecha to enter the deep sea. A Dragon country scientific research ship has brought a deep-sea submersible. To be honest, Mofang thinks that it is better to wear a mecha and get into the cabin than to stay in an egg-shaped submersible and observe the deep-sea shipwreck through a small glass window. It is impossible to salvage the shipwreck. At most, we can try to get a few corpses up to verify their identities and give an explanation to the families, unless the robot helps, but this is what the earthlings are more worried about.

The diving work is still in preparation. The captain of the destroyer sent a communication. He wants real-time video footage of the seabed. It doesn't matter if those big guys can't let go of their face. Mofang agreed very happily and asked Zhuanlun to link the mecha video device with the destroyer.

Therefore, the display that was originally used to display other information on the destroyer was forcibly requisitioned by the wheel to broadcast the real-time picture...

On the deck of a media ship, reporters were broadcasting live.

"...Now we see the robot aircraft that assists in search and rescue. From the outside, the aircraft looks very sci-fi and mysterious. I don't know what is inside the cabin. The photo I hold in my hand is a copy of the underwater shipwreck photo sent to us by the robot. Through the photo, we can clearly see the main building of the passenger ship and the wreck... Wait! Those two robots jumped into the sea? Are they going to dive into the six-kilometer-deep seabed? Our submersible has just been launched!"

Just now, the screen just live broadcasted the Mofang and Xiao Ke wearing mechas jumping into the sea, and next to them was an orange-red submersible that was slowly being lowered...

Mofang and Xiao Ke tilted and fell straight down in the sea, the red eyes of the mechas scanned back and forth, rushing straight into the darkness with bubbles, and many marine creatures quickly moved away.

The light was getting darker and darker. The mecha turned on the lights, and four beams of light sank quickly. Through the light beams, many plankton could be seen...

The computer showed a depth of one thousand meters...

Two thousand meters...

Three thousand meters...

Four thousand meters...

Five thousand meters...

"We are about to reach the bottom of the trench. Be careful of the attack of sea monsters. We are here to investigate the cause of the shipwreck, not to study the mutant marine life."

Inside the helmet, Xiao Ke heard the message sent by the Cube. To be honest, the deep sea looks more uncomfortable than space. At least space is not depressing. There is always a huge sense of depression in the deep sea. There are few creatures at a depth of six thousand meters. Looking down, you can see a huge white shadow lying quietly on the seabed. It is the wrecked passenger ship.

On the sea surface, the captain and some officers in the destroyer are staring at the screen. What they see is the real-time picture sent back by the Cube.

The mecha started the propulsion device to slow down the sinking speed. Finally, the Cube and Xiao Ke gently stirred up a ball of turbid sea water and landed on the ground. In front of them was the side of the wrecked passenger ship, and the bottom of the passenger ship sat at the bottom of the trench.

The beam of light swept across the bow of the ship. The hull number and name of the ship were exactly the same as those of the wrecked passenger ship. Everyone in the destroyer took off their hats to express their condolences...

The Rubik's Cube roughly scanned the hull. There were no obvious traces of weapon attacks on the surface of the hull and there was nothing suspicious. If you want to know everything, you need to enter the sunken ship to check the computer chip that has been short-circuited and shut down. The mecha thruster pushed the Rubik's Cube and swam towards the passenger ship control. In the center, Xiao Ke followed behind him with a gun, swimming from the bottom of the sea to the upper part of the cruise ship, looking like he was flying up.

Grabbing the railing and climbing into the aisle, Rubik's Cube and Xiaoke leaned forward and moved slowly, pushed by the propeller.

After finding the hatch, it was locked inside. Since it had sunk to the bottom of the sea, I wasn’t afraid of someone retrieving it. I simply used brute force to break the door lock and open the hatch. The Rubik’s Cube easily pushed aside a pale, deformed dead face soaked in sea water to get out of the way. The Rubik's Cube didn't do well, but those on the destroyer were so startled that they almost screamed. No one could stand the high level of mental stress. When they were concentrating, a pale, deformed dead face appeared in front of them.

The mecha lights illuminated the control center. Several corpses were shaking slightly in the sea water. They grabbed the corpses and threw them aside. The Rubik's Cube found the ship's monitoring equipment computer and found the chip hard drive to start reading data...

Xiao Ke, who was standing guard with a gun next to her, glanced around with vigilance. For some reason, she always felt very dangerous. Suddenly! A flicker from the corner of his eye! A black shadow passed by, and when the detection wave and light beam looked through, there was nothing. It was a large room, and there seemed to be some terrifying presence in the black hole inside the door.

"Rubik's Cube, I always feel unsafe, as if something is watching us!"

"Oh? The more this happens, the more you have to pretend that nothing is wrong. Believe me, I'm right. The data has been interpreted. Huh? Is water leaking from seven places at the bottom of the ship at the same time?"

The Rubik's Cube looked at the data and was puzzled. It is normal for one place to be damaged and leakage. Two places are also normal. Three or four places are definitely abnormal. So seven places are leaking at the same time. Even if you say it is an accident, even ghosts will not believe it. No, this place cannot mention ghosts. Words, otherwise it is easy to provoke something lingering.

Driven by curiosity, Xiaoke slowly walked towards the room with the open door, walked slowly to the door, and the mecha's beam of light swept into the door.

This place looks like a lounge. The TV, refrigerator, and sofa suspended from the ceiling make everything look normal. What was that black shadow just now? Just when Xiaoke was about to continue walking inside to take a look, her shoulders sank...
