Chapter 1463 Energy Exhaustion
Of course An Yun told Alyssa about his warning.
But while Alyssa was mentally prepared, she did not intend to change her decision.
As a recycler, she definitely wants to go up and have a look.
As a lieutenant colonel in the army, she is also obliged to confirm what happened to the ship so that she can avoid lightning for the main force of the fleet.
It is impossible to just walk away, both in public and private matters.
This time, in order to ensure that it can deal with possible threats at any time, Alyssa did not take anyone on the bridge, so that the Swan has the ability to fight warships at any time.
The members who entered the transport ship, in addition to Dui and Lieutenant Cao Wei, plus Sophia and Shanafia, also brought ten soldiers.
Considering that there may be deadly biochemical contamination remaining on the transport ship, everyone put on heavy protective suits and carried double the amount of oxygen on their backs, and prepared the Swan for biochemical disinfection.
Hall piloted the silver cyclone to leave the airlock first, and was on alert around the transport ship to provide support at any time.
Since Li Chengqi was away, Alyssa personally drove the Manta close to the transport ship.
There are indeed no scars visible on the surface, but there are some things that are not quite right.
For example, the coating on this ship seems to have been scraped off, revealing the metallic color underneath.
Many ships are painted on their surfaces. In addition to providing certain protection against cosmic rays, these coatings are also important visual identification measures.
The coating on this ship has disappeared. It is not that there is no coating at all, but it has been scraped clean.
This gave people sitting close by on the Manta some very bad associations.
It felt like this transport ship had been swallowed into the mouth by some huge monster, and it was carefully cleaned like a rib.
Since Li Chengqi is not there and Fang Lanyin is not on the list to enter the transport ship, the Manta Ray cannot enter from the transport ship's airlock.
Under the guidance of the Swan's scanner, Alyssa found a hatch that could be opened from the outside and docked it with the Manta's tail hatch.
Although the ship seems to have run out of energy, the hatch is a mechanical structure. Once docked, it can be controlled by the Manta to open it.
Everyone got ready. As the air-tight door made a hissing exhaust sound, Lieutenant Du Yi and Cao Wei rushed in with people to check the back corridor from left to right.
"No threats have been found. This place seems to have completely lost energy."
Lieutenant Duy reported, but also swallowed his saliva.
A ship maintains internal lights at all times, unless the lights are broken or the ship completely shuts down the reactor.
So even people who have been on ships for most of their lives rarely see a ship that completely turns off all the lights inside the ship.
In the darkness, what looked like an ordinary corridor now looked like the throat of some kind of monster, which was chilling.
However, Alyssa is not frightened by the darkness. Recyclers often go to ruins that no one has visited for thousands of years, pick up ghost ships and explode gold coins. Among other things, they found the ruins where the boot disk was found. But it was much bigger than here, so Alyssa still dared to rush in with a few people to search, she was quite courageous.
She operated on her personal terminal and called up the rough structure diagram given by the scanner on the Swan.
"Let's move on and go left. We can go to the bridge this way."
When you enter a ghost ship, you can't run around like a headless fly.
First, go to the bridge to confirm what happened to the ship. Then go to the cargo hold, engine room, and various cabins to check to make sure nothing is missing.
Alyssa has explored ghost ships many times with her grandfather, so she is certainly familiar with this process.
Since there is no artificial gravity, everyone can only float in the corridor and move forward by the handrails. Du Yi and Cao Wei are leading the way, while Shanafia and Sophia, plus the golem named Benben, are in charge. The Queen.
Alyssa was caught in the middle and was playing with the instruments. The air quality detector told Alyssa that there was still air in this place, but it was relatively thin. It should be caused by the air circulation system striking due to loss of energy.
No microorganisms or viruses were found in the air, and this did not seem to be the sudden death of everyone due to some special disease.
Besides, even if all the crew members died due to an acute infectious disease, what would happen if the reactor stopped working? No virus will affect the reactor?
Either the ship has been floating in the void for too long, and the reactor has automatically shut down without maintenance, and the equipment that has not been shut down on the ship has consumed all the energy storage pool, so it is Ah The state Lisa sees now.
Either, what happened on this ship was unusual.
There was no sound in the dark corridor, and the lights on the protective suits illuminated irregular circles of light in the darkness.
Not everyone was as calm as Alyssa. Many of the soldiers who came with her had never seen such a situation. Everyone clenched their guns and looked very nervous.
Fortunately, they are professional soldiers. No matter how nervous they are, they have never forgotten not to point their guns at their teammates, and they have not put their fingers on the triggers. Otherwise, in such a tense environment, the slightest movement will be heard. There may be accidental friendly fire incidents.
The size of this transport ship is much larger than that of the Swan. The scanner scans the hull structure from the outside, but it is not very accurate due to the obstruction of the armor plate.
Alyssa just used the scan results as a reference. On the forward route, she mainly relied on Alyssa's experience and the occasional road signs in the corridor for navigation.
The quiet environment will gradually amplify fear, but nothing happened along the way. No one saw any monsters, nor even the bodies of any crew members.
It was as if the ship was not driven by humans, but flew nearby by remote control.
In the end, Alyssa led everyone around for almost half an hour before they finally found their way to the bridge.
The bridge door is of course closed, and due to the loss of energy, it cannot be opened by pressing a few buttons from the outside.
Usually there is an emergency switch nearby, but Alyssa is too lazy to look for it.
Sannafia stepped forward. This little girl used exaggerated brute force to easily force open the heavy door with two clicks, directly breaking the mechanical structure of the door.
Others aimed their guns at the open door and waited for a few seconds to confirm that they did not hear any movement or react before starting to clean up.
The inside of the bridge is very ordinary. Judging from the shape of the bridge, it belongs to the general bridge type, and there is nothing worth mentioning.
But, still no one was seen, even just a corpse.
Alyssa carefully checked the seats of each member on the bridge. These seats had varying degrees of slight wear and tear. They were obviously used frequently. The seat belts were also unfastened and not closed on the seats. .
It felt like something happened suddenly, causing everyone in the bridge to unbuckle their seat belts and escape quickly.
If you want to determine what happened to this ship, the captain's terminal on the bridge is the best choice.
All records of the entire ship from the beginning of its voyage will be stored in the shipboard terminal. Unless someone deletes it deliberately, traces will definitely be left.
This is like a logbook. Unless the ship changes hands, no one will delete it on purpose.
Alyssa came to the captain's seat and pressed the button. As expected, the terminal did not respond.
This situation was expected. Alyssa took out a metal can the size of a water cup, then opened the shell of the terminal by herself, and connected a few wires to the metal can in her hand. together.
The metal can contains liquefied magic power, which is a battery. In this way, a terminal that has lost energy can be started for a period of time.
After a few moments, the terminal started smoothly. Alyssa heard the soft sound of the mechanical hard disk being read, and the terminal screen also lit up slightly.
But when Alyssa raised her head and planned to take a closer look at what was displayed on the terminal, a line of words came into view first.
‘We can’t escape’.
