Shortly after the Hercules transport plane disappeared, gravitational ripples that were difficult to distinguish between the naked eye were swept in the void thousands of kilometers away from the asteroid. Time and space were gradually distorted and lengthened, and as the flow of light passed, 12 crimson warships appeared out of thin air.

These warships are of the same specification, with a body length of about 230 meters, and the overall shape is similar to a dagger with exquisite shape. Of course, the proportion of the hilt of the sword is wider. The sword grid is a flat and round structure, with a double-mounted small thruster distributed on it, which is a part of the weapon system. The stern is the same as the rudder, and it runs slowly counterclockwise. In the center of it is the main propulsion system composed of four thrusters.

In addition to the above characteristics, these dagger warships also have a very eye-catching emblem on the heads, one dragon and the other strong and powerful black flying dragon, like a human being, can walk upright.

Its wings are half open and half closed, the dragon head is raised high, and its mouth is opened, making a roar towards the sky.

These 12 crimson warships stayed in the dark void for a moment, and the main engine at the tail suddenly spewed out a blue fire, disappearing one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the void flowing near the asteroid that was flying slowly thousands of kilometers away, 12 dagger warships appeared again and were parallel to the asteroid at the same speed.

The starboard cabin of a warship located at the front of the battleship sequence was opened, and a spherical aircraft drove out, quickly rushed into the asteroid's gravity range, hovered at a low altitude, and then passed by closely following the place where the Tang side fought with the troops led by Black 3, and re-entered into the mothership cabin after about 5 minutes.

After the 12 warships were still for a while, they slowly turned under the action of the auxiliary propulsion system, and the tail was blue light masterpiece.

The next second, 12 silver lights flashed one after another, the warship cluster disappeared without a trace, and the void returned to peace again. The asteroid was still slowly traveling far away, gradually turning into a small black dot, throwing into the endless darkness in the distance.

…………

At the same time, inside the bridge of the Hercules transport plane, Tang Fang stood in front of the combat command platform and looked at the holographic projection image of the star map and pondered without saying a word.

If it is the Morning Star, it will take about 10 days to go to the Saam space station, but if it is replaced by Hercules shuttle, it will only take about 3 days, and the navigation time will be reduced by more than 3 times. In this way, it can be one week earlier than the original plan.

Claya, Zhou Ai and others went to visit the ship's facilities. They were not on the bridge. Tang Yun was very interested in this transport ship. She stood quietly behind the bridge and watched the drivers control the ship. Her expression was even more serious than the crew of the Morning Star.

"The driving group, abort the jump, reset the course, target the 'Akubado' star system."

The sudden order from the Tang side shocked the crew members who came from the Morning Star, including Aros.

What shocked them was not the change of routes, but the four words "stop jump". If Captain Tang did not speak nonsense, wouldn't this mean that the Hercules transport plane could stop the warp jump in the middle?

The high warp speed level of 88 is already terrifying enough. If you have such half-distance braking capabilities, wouldn’t it completely break the interstellar navigation rules of today’s human world?

The crew of the Morning Star looked at each other. Some people tried to swallow the sour water in their mouths. They suddenly thought of one thing: how much change would it have to be transplanted to the Hercules transport engine system on the Morning Star.

The defense has "aura" shield, attacks with the Mini Yamato cannon, and the speed is as high as 88. The interstellar engine can be braked in the middle. This kind of warship is exciting just thinking about it.

With Tang Fang's intelligence, it is naturally easy to guess the thoughts of the crew of the "Morning Star" but at the moment he has no energy to take care of them. His attention is on the flickering point of the star map model. It represents a star system - Akubado, where the aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish comes from.

The idea of ​​going to "Akubado" was that the search for the star map was temporarily decided. First, the "Akubado" is not far from the current location of the Hercules transport aircraft, and it only takes half a day to reach it. Second, he is very interested in the aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish body, or this is the main reason why he decided to turn the "Akubado".

From traveling through this world to today, I have encountered many strange creatures these days, but only a small part of them can collect gas resources, including the underground elite rock worm of Planet No. 5, the bat monster in the ruins of Ipsilon Name, and the mushroom monster at the Megar Relay Station. These small and medium-sized creatures with zero ingredient in their bodies are more or less related to epic creatures like evil eyes and giant snakes.

Aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish according to Emma's analysis is the key to unlocking the abyss of infection, which makes him very concerned. Will there be other organisms similar to Aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish in the Aqbd-1?

In the strong acid marine environment covering the entire planet, human creation cannot penetrate into certain abysses and can only move in shallower sea areas. Therefore, no one can be sure whether there are other species in "Akron" except aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish.

Tang Fang planned to try his luck. Human creations cannot withstand strongly corrosive acid solutions. What about the gods? Let’s take a step back and take some acid water samples for analysis. Maybe Emma can find a solution to the problem?

Just as he was slightly distracted, the driver started the abortion process according to the command. The Hercules transport aircraft's warp speed level dropped sharply, the warp bubble contracted in reverse, and the space-time curvature rebounded. As silver light flashed on the bridge display, the warship appeared in the real universe.

The driver turned the heading rod and turned the head position, input the "Akubado" into the navigation system, and activated the warp engine again. After a moment, a light flashed and Hercules entered the virtual space again.

…………

The "Akubado" star system is located in the heart of the Covenant, and is even only 97 light-years away from the "Duma" star system. However, it has not been developed here, and it is as barren as the void desert as invisible.

It’s not that the Covenant government does not want to develop it, but that the internal environment of “Akubado” limits its development.

The central star of the star system, "Akubado", is a star with only 07 sun masses. There are only two planets around it. It can be said that the door is neglected and the population is thin.

Among these two planets, the closest to "Akubado" is "Akron", a green planet covered with a highly corrosive acid solution. As for the planet outside, it is called "Erna", which is a gas giant planet.

Needless to say, the preciousness of marine planets in the universe is considered to be one of the most habitable types of planets. It only requires some simple atmospheric transformation projects to become a residential star with a pleasant environment.

"Akron" is an exception. Because the concentration of acidic substances in the sea water is extremely high, the cradle of life becomes a cemetery of life, and only the aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish can survive here.

As a gas giant planet, "Erna" is naturally not suitable for human life. Therefore, although "Akubado" is in the heart of the Covenant, it has become an unpredictable airspace. Only some scientific people in the scientific field are stationed on the scientific research space station in the high-altitude orbit of "Akron" to conduct research.

When the light of "Akubado" rose from the "Akron" horizontal line and a layer of frost white appeared in the upper half of the scientific research space station, a stream of void light flashed from dozens of kilometers according to this. A spacecraft more than 140 meters long appeared in the high altitude orbit of the planet.

This spacecraft was a Hercules transport plane carrying Tang Fang and others. After 14 and a half hours of warp speed, it successfully arrived at the target location.

After the unmanned radar station deployed by the scientific research space station discovered the existence of the Hercules transport aircraft, it immediately sent the message to the central system of the space station.

Because "Akubado" is located in the heart of the Star Alliance, the scientific research space station is another clear water yamen, and there is nothing valuable. No pirate group has ever dared to come here to rob at the risk of being surrounded and suppressed by the Star Alliance Navy. On the contrary, some unofficial scientific researchers often come here to collect relevant data on "Akron" seawater. In order to study equipment that can resist corrosion of acid solutions, and develop and utilize zero-element resources in the planetary strata.

Therefore, the emergence of Hercules transport aircraft did not arouse the vigilance of the staff in the scientific research station, and issued a communication request on a routine basis.

Tang Fang ordered the correspondent to transfer to the bridge's large screen, and then told the space station's on-duty webmaster his identity to tell the space station's on-duty webmaster of his purpose.

Over the past period of time, he has become a household name in the Star Alliance, and he doesn't need to introduce himself. When the bearded webmaster saw him, he stood there in a daze. He never expected such a big man to come to "Akubado" who would not shit.

Of course, he would not refuse the request to collect "Akron" seawater samples from the Tang side, not only would he not refuse. He also said that the space station was willing to provide additional help, such as relevant information, guides, operating equipment, etc.

Tang Fang expressed his gratitude for his enthusiasm, but declined the advice of the space station to provide guidance, hoping to borrow special login equipment and unmanned operation boats.

In the past, when some heavy machinery manufacturing companies organized scientific researchers to investigate the seabed situation of "Akron", most of them chose to refuse guidance services due to commercial secrets. The bearded webmaster was not surprised by his words and did not get entangled in this issue. They told the relevant staff to open the dock of the space station and let Captain Tang and others enter the station.

This scientific research space station, code-named "Stanfordia", is not large, with a length of only about 2 kilometers and belongs to the category of small space stations. Hercules transport plane was led by a navigation drone and Tang Fang took Roy and Zhou Ai to enter the space station through the connection channel.

First, he met with the bearded webmaster and chatted for a while about the issues related to "Akron". He politely refused the party's proposal to share the meal, took two people to the space station hangar, selected a landing ship and said goodbye to the station manager, and left the space station.

This landing ship equipped with the "Stanfordia" scientific research space station is a special equipment developed by the Star Alliance official agency for the "Akron" inland environment. It can be used as an atmospheric shuttle or as a surface speedboat, and it has the effects of resisting corrosion and lightning strikes.

This is because the entire surface of the "Aclam" is covered by the ocean converging with strong acid solutions, which makes the planet's atmospheric clouds very thick, the water vapor content is very high, the convection and circulation activities are frequent, and extreme weather such as heavy rainstorms and hurricanes are very prone to extreme weather.

The landing ship is thrown into the internal clouds from low-altitude orbits, and through the transparent glass compartment, the eyes capture a strange scene.

The sky of "Akron" is different from that of ordinary residential stars, because the water vapor that makes the clouds contain a lot of acidic substances, making the clouds that should be like cotton shine with a light green color, which looks particularly eye-catching under the blue sky.

Below the clouds, the green ocean is like silk ribbons floating in the wind, rippling waves, like a green cotton blanket that spreads to the end of the vision, intertwining with the green on the other side of the sky. It makes people feel refreshed.

The only regret is that there is a little less vitality in the world. There are no gulls flying in the low altitude, nor are there any petrels lined up in the distance. They are empty. Apart from the sea water, there are clouds and blue sky.

The landing ship drew a smoke track between the sea and the sky, slowly reducing its flight speed. Finally landed on the turquoise water surface.

Unlike during air flight, the chassis of the landing ship expands outward to increase buoyancy. The main engine of the stern retracts back into the inside of the hull, and only two auxiliary thrusters are left to provide surface propulsion for the landing ship.

After the landing ship stopped, Tang Fang pressed the switch and put away the huge glass window in the cab.

The inland environment of "Akron" looks pleasing to the eye, but in fact it is a hell, affected by the strong acid sea. There are extremely high concentrations of acidic substances free of the air. If humans breathe without protection, the acidic substances will burn the respiratory system in a very short time and cause death. Therefore, if you want to land on the surface of the planet for field research, in addition to the special landing ship, you must also be equipped with special power armor equipped with filtering systems.

Tang Fang did not use the power armor on the landing ship. Instead, he changed into ghost's harsh environmental protective clothing. Zhou Ai and Roy also had the same equipment.

Although the two of them cannot use the phantom-powered components of harsh environmental protective clothing, they can use its filtering system to move in harsh environments of "AClone".

He also did not use the unmanned operation boat carried by the landing ship, but instead released a detector, manipulated it into the water and dived into the sea.

As expected, this kind of god-horse machinery specially used for detection can work in most harsh environments, and an acidic solution with extremely strong corrosion effects cannot cause substantial damage to it.

He ordered Emma to pay close attention to the underwater images transmitted from the detector. He summoned a puppy from the system space to pay attention to its health in the acidic environment of "Aclamation".

He was not worried that his actions on the sea would be discovered by those in the space station. As early as when he boarded the space station, he had arranged ghost to cooperate with Emma to invade the entire space-based monitoring network of the space station. He wanted those people on the space station to see what they could only see.

Zhou Ai and Roy couldn't help below. They had to climb on the second deck of the landing boat to look into the distant scenery. They seemed to have regarded this "Akron" trip as a sightseeing tour.

Tang Fang had no time to care about them and focused all his attention on the puppy.

When exposed to the acidic environment of "Aclamron", the puppy was very manic at first, but it returned to calm after about 5 or 6 minutes. The scales on the body surface only became a little mottled, and there was no death or serious injury.

Since the weakest puppy of Zerg can survive in such a harsh environment, I believe that after the insects, eye bugs and other big guys will be fine.

Next, it directly ordered the puppy to jump into the water, intending to see how corrosive the sea water has on the Zerg unit.

Almost the moment the puppy fell into the water, he heard a wail, the scales on the puppy's body were quickly corroded, and his health decreased sharply.

He quickly pulled it back to the system space and replaced it with a cockroach and threw it into the water.

Perhaps the casket of cockroaches is much thicker than that of puppies, or it may be that it is a creature that uses acidic substances to hunt targets. Therefore, its corrosion resistance is very high. It will not decrease until it sinks thousands of meters underwater. However, its speed is relatively slow. It is estimated that it can drop by more than 3,000 meters before it will die.

Cockroaches can drop more than 3,000 meters, but what about corrupters? Even if the pressure is taken into account, 10,000 meters should not be a problem. The key is that the deepest abyss of "Akron" is tens of thousands of meters away from the water surface.

Could it be that we can only rely on the gods unit? I wonder if the immortals can withstand the strong pressure of the sea water.

While he was frowning and pondering, Emma told him a message that the detector had reached 13,000 meters underwater and was close to the seabed of this area of ​​water. If he continued to dive, the water pressure would cause damage to the detector.

"Are you found any?"

"There are a large number of AQBD-1 asexual jellyfish found in the 5000-8000-meter area, and no other species were found except."

Should I try another immortal? The immortal has a strong shield and a heavy armor mechanical unit. Its pressure resistance should be stronger than the detector, but whether it can withstand the extreme water pressure of the deepest abyss of "Akron" is still an unknown.

At this moment, there was a crackling sound behind me. When I looked back, I found that it was the special seat cushion in the cockpit slapped the backrest.

The wind is blowing...

"Tang Fang, the storm is coming, what should I do? Should I change the sea area when I go back?" Zhou Ai's voice sounded in his ears.

The surging waves on the water surface are slow to rapid, and the gradually changing waves gently shake the hull.

Tang Fang looked up at the horizon, and a dark cloud shining with green was coming like a wild horse. The sea level occasionally flashed by, and it was thunder raging in the clouds in the distance.

The acid rain fell from the air, and fell on the sea with its rushing steps, splashing water.

Wow...

At the end of the field of vision, a wave surging under the strong wind, shaking several meters high waves and hitting heavily on the water.

Darkness and storm are like rolling demon soldiers gushing out of hell, spreading quickly towards the location of the landing ship. (To be continued...)
