Chapter 035 Humans (1)
There was a violent fluctuation in the space.
Two spacecraft sailing at warp speeds broke out of the subspace and suddenly appeared in a brand new star system. The spacecraft is not huge and belongs to civilian ships that can be seen everywhere in interstellar aviation. It is about 300 meters long and more than 50 meters wide. It can accommodate more than 10,000 people for interstellar travel at a time.
However, this is not ordinary civil aviation.
At present, no civil aviation will open such extremely remote routes, which are nearly two hundred light years away from the most marginal human colonial area.
The two spacecraft were running slowly, calibrating coordinates and adjusting directions. In addition to marking the hull number on its huge ship's side, there was also a yellow, huge "W" artistic writing logo. This is undoubtedly the property of the Wayland Group, and it is two ocean-going scientific research vessels.
One of the scientific research ships numbered "CS-150".
Captain Mazhe listened to the data reports of his subordinates and the positioning of the interstellar navigation map. In fact, areas beyond the federal territory generally rely on certain extremely bright stars, first-class stars, second-class stars and other unquestionably the most dazzling beacons in the starry sky. They compared the gap between seconds (the gap between one second is about 3.26 light years) and calculated the orientation①.
Ma Zhe handed over the mission to his trusted subordinates, reporting data, and preparing for observation... He cooperated with them skillfully and tacitly. He has been in the interstellar navigation experience for more than ten years, and he said without any modesty that even professional sergeant commanders in the army may not be more familiar with the interstellar ocean than them.
At this time, one of Mazhe's brothers walked to him with doubts.
"Brother, I discovered something strange!" Ma Yu walked down with a PDA in his hand. He had a pair of black-framed glasses on his face and messy curly hair. He looked like a person who was very easy to focus on one thing and ultimately. Ma Zhe shook his head gently when he saw him without blinking.
"What strange thing?" Ma Zhe asked, his younger brother was nominally a crew member, but he also had some research on scientific research, especially environmental science.
"The coordinates provided to us by the company have long been explored." Ma Yu finally raised his head, his face full of confusion, "I entered the federal military network--"
"What, the federal military network!" Ma Zhe's voice first rose a little bit, and then suppressed it, "You're crazy! Do you just go in that kind of place?"
"It's not the first time." Ma Yu murmured in a low voice, "Let's talk about serious matters, I dare not. This place has been explored in the report. It is a unit without a number, but it is probably a starship paratrooper, and only these people will run around the world. What I am curious is that this is clearly a secret of the military, why does the company know that this planet named 'Maldo' is suitable for development?"
"Don't say this!" Ma Zhe corrected his attitude, took the PDA in Ma Yu's hand and deleted the information he downloaded.
"Are you?" Ma Yu looked puzzled.
"We shouldn't be indiscriminate about the company's affairs." Ma Zhe said seriously, but when he saw Ma Yu's face was puzzled, he knew that if he didn't explain, Ma Yu might continue to cause trouble - the private guards hired by a group of groups were on these two ships!
"I tell you, let you dispel this curiosity! Save the time to cause trouble!" Mazhe took him aside, "Do you know the relationship between the company and the federal government?"
"It is rumored that members of Congress all like to lick Verland's ass." Ma Yu said seriously.
"Damn!" Ma Zhe rolled his eyes, "You can't say this in the future. But... in fact, that's the case. Mr. Wayland has a very good relationship with the government, so it is naturally not difficult to obtain these confidential things. In addition, in recent years, the Wayland Group has been contracting the business of planet development, and its technology and capabilities are satisfactory, and the government also wants to reduce costs..."
"But this planet was discovered four years ago! And it has been initially detected, and the conditions are suitable, and it is simply a handful of things. Is the government so funny?"
"How do I know if they have any problems with their brains!" Mazhe said with some contempt, "But one thing is certain, for example, if you replace Verland with you, you are developing the planet of Philos and are about to enter the open colonization stage, but you have discovered a better and more labor-saving place. Do you think you should complete the development of the Philos colonial star first and recover the investment; or give up and invest in the star Maldo?"
"Of course, it was completed and invested trillions of dollars, otherwise I would have lost my life?" Ma Zhe said without thinking, but then he suddenly realized, "God! It turned out that someone was deliberately hiding it!"
"Just know. Someone came over, and all these words were rotten in my stomach!" Ma Zhe glanced around and a scientific research representative walked towards him.
"Captain Horse!" The person who came was a middle-aged man. "We need to land on the surface of the planet. Please arrange the landing of the spacecraft now?"
"Don't check it?" Ma Zhe asked in confusion.
"No need to bother, the detector's results are very favorable," said the middle-aged man. "Let another ship stay at low altitude to observe, and the landed modified ship docked directly on the surface."
Although this does not meet the norm, thinking of the affirmation he had just guessed and looked at the man, Ma Zhe nodded, "I will arrange for a landing."
Mazhe asked the spacecraft to enter the low orbit carefully and fly along the equator. The camera captured lush forests.
"Brother!" Ma Yu shouted again, "Hurry! Come and see! There is actually a city below!"
Ma Zhe frowned and walked over, "This joke is too low-level..."
"What!" Ma Zhe widened his eyes. After the camera was enlarged by a hundred times, there was indeed a magnificent city below, almost all made of stones, but the craftsmanship was exquisite, and some places were shining brightly, emitting colorful light, as if they had come to a mythical kingdom.
But the next moment, the spacecraft shook violently, and then issued a sharp warning sound.
"The spacecraft was hit!" An operator stood up in surprise. "The air pressure leak occurred in the bottom cabin and the sensor was interrupted nearby."
"No, that's a laser!" another operator shouted, "The ground has an anti-air laser, and we are being attacked!"
"Contact the ground quickly!" Ma Zhe said that the first thing he thought of was that he was accidentally injured by his own people, and at this time he needed to contact us to clarify.
No one thinks about the other side, or subconsciously makes them reluctant to think about the bad.
Humans always have to hold some hope.
The same goes for Zerg.
Although the laser power emitted by a unit of laser worm is not enough to burn through the hard armor on the surface of the spacecraft, it must be based on one premise - only one laser worm is attacking.
But the Zerg obviously does not lack laser insects.
More than a dozen green lasers condensed and fired, and gathered accurately at the same position of the spacecraft - to be more precise, a small dot located by the scout on the surface of the engine compartment. Synchronized and precise attacks, in less than a second, the ship was discovered by the scout when it entered a low altitude and burned through the engine compartment by the laser during the entire surveillance process. The gap ignited flames due to the high temperature and spit out thick smoke.
The scout shook his body and discharged ten messengers out of his body. The messenger as big as a thumb flapped his wings and flew out, covering the area where the spacecraft was about to make a landing. At the same time, the scout sent out a burst of ultrasound waves with extremely high frequency, calling on nearby scouts to connect one by one, and the ultrasound network was established instantly.
The range of biological ultrasonic scanning is limited and the speed is low, but another scout is replaced every certain distance, which is equivalent to the relay stations established in the air responsible for enhancing and feedback signals. The lack of individual detection distance makes up for this in a huge number.
There is another spacecraft at low altitude!
The condensed green beam once again showed off its might. Although the distance and air would weaken the power of the laser, after dozens of consecutive attacks, another non-military spacecraft could not escape the disaster. Just like the outcome of the first spacecraft, it staggered to fall to the ground.
The laser just hits the area of the engine compartment. After all, it only intercepts weapons rather than air weapons. The damage it can be illuminated is limited, and the spacecraft can still remain stable.
But it is obviously impossible to escape.
It took the master only a few seconds to get two uninhabited spacecraft in the sky. However, tens of thousands of carrier units were used in the process.
The carrier of ten thousand digits is a negligible "small" for the current master or queen.
The rare Zerg joint combat tests the scout's ultrasonic scanning ability, biological sharing data link ability and ground unit air defense capabilities.
But talent is different from ordinary people. Humans need time to practice and master when using air defense weapons. For the Zerg, this is just an instinct to flow with blood.
The instinct of fighting just by pulling it out!
The master stood by the window of his luxurious palace, holding his arms and staring at the scene of the spaceship falling. The two unwavering smoke tails were dragged long, and the strange scenery in the sky made some local creatures look up, but their extremely simple heads didn't know what this meant.
The smoke disappeared under the horizon, accompanied by a loud bang.
"It's you again!" Although the master stood here, he was also located in the distance. "There are still quite a lot of people. It seems that you have a strong interest in this land."
"Kill them?" The giant beast incarnated by the queen faintly stretched out its claws to slap the spaceship. In her opinion, the not-solid shell could not stop the giant beast's attack.
"No!" The other giant beast did not make a sound, but shook its head. The alien on the ground walked forward and skillfully opened the deformed hatch door.
"The spacecraft is not seriously damaged, we can still use it!" said the master, "Leave the living people and let them repair the spacecraft."
The queen scratched the ground with her paws, a little unhappy.
"Maxine, I know what you think. They are invaders. Last time, we almost exterminated us. This time you want to avenge your previous shame." The master said patiently, "That's fine. After repairing the spacecraft, you can do whatever you want. But now, we need these two spacecraft."
"You have to understand that this time is no longer an accidental encounter. Their arrival shows that humans have begun to pay attention to this paradise! If we don't handle the relationship well, this company will sooner or later send a second team and a third team. Maybe next time it will not be a private fleet, but an army, a huge federal fleet! Their nuclear bombs and antimatter bombs will erase us from the planet!"
"And we still have the power to fight back." The master in the palace looked up at the sky, "We must think of a way to divert human sight."
"The Zerg shouldn't continue to be silent."

①: If we really want to establish a "three-dimensional coordinate system" among the star clusters, according to current scientific understanding, the origin of this coordinate system requires a "absolute static" point, but "absolute static" is contrary to the theory of relativity. Therefore, the future world set in this book still follows this method: motion is relative, and space and time are not absolute.
The navigation coordinate points in the book can actually refer to the widely used equatorial coordinate systems in astronomy (the celestial sphere coordinate system with the celestial equator as the basic plane), and use the right longitude and declination to determine the position of celestial bodies during a certain period of time (perhaps hundreds of years). Then, to use the imagination of the future, the positioning of "human" in the book should be a more accurate means.
