Chapter 794 Land of Death
793. Land of Death
A gust of wind blew by, picking up a burst of dead leaves and dust from the bushes on the side, and flew onto the smooth road. There was a murmuring sound.
[Cleaning robot 003 is working, please avoid pedestrians...Cleaning robot 003 is working, please avoid pedestrians...] The cleaning robot's broadcast sounded in time, and at the same time there was a slight engine sound.
This is a colonial area. Almost all buildings are metal modular and generally no more than three stories in height. A sizable town has been formed here, with everything in the town. The holographic advertisements on both sides of the street are still flashing, and the lights are still on in many buildings.
Although it is already noon in this place.
The sign of a bar that said it was open from evening to early morning local time was still flashing. The automatic door of the bar kept opening and closing, and the motor made a whining sound.
Looking again, I found that a bar stool commonly used in bars was thrown at the door. It was precisely because of the obstruction of this bar stool that the automatic door kept opening and closing.
The automatic door kept making a slight alarm sound to remind the staff to deal with the blockage as soon as possible, but no one paid any attention to it.
The streets were empty, and there were no hovercars or spaceships flying in the sky. This was completely contrary to the usual bustling and busy nature of this mining colony.
There was a burning smell coming from a nearby restaurant, and some communicators, purses and even shoes could be seen scattered on the ground. The cleaning robot that wanted to clean the streets was still broadcasting, but it never went to clean it—— The robot had been damaged, its entire body was in pieces, and only the head equipped with sensors was still making sounds.
Close to the center of the colonial town, a large number of burn marks began to appear on the walls of the surrounding buildings. These marks were caused by the firing of blaster rifles or laser guns, and more and more things were scattered on the ground. More and more, it becomes more and more confusing.
There were damaged blaster rifles, some helmets, ammunition boxes thrown on the ground, and even two blown-up E-WEB heavy blaster machine guns. There was some blood on the ground but not much. With both sides using blaster rifles or plasma weapons, the bloodshed had been reduced a lot.
Behind a bunker constructed of three portable energy shields, a military communicator fell to the ground. The only sign of life that came along the way was seen here - a lone palm.
[Zi~~~Valk No. 1, Valk No. 1, please reply! Zi~~~ Please report the local situation immediately! Valk No. 1 Zi~~~! ] Calls continued to come from the severely interfered communication.
But no one can respond anymore.
More than ten minutes later, several spaceships landed at the space port outside the town, and then hundreds of clone soldiers wearing white combat armor disembarked from the spacecraft.
The leader is a middle-aged human Jedi Knight.
They quickly checked the town, but there was only dead silence.
"General Baloyi, it is confirmed that there is no one in the town, but there are signs of fighting. What is strange is that it seems to be a fierce battle, and not even a body is left." The clone commander came over and spoke to the Jedi.
"It would be understandable if the other party captured all the people, but why they took away the bodies is hard for me to think of." Baloyi said with a frown.
"Maybe there are some clues on the body that the other party doesn't want us to know? Such as scars?" the clone commander thought. "This possibility cannot be ruled out." Baloyi said, "There have been more and more attacks in the Perrin sector recently, but why would the separatists attack here? This place is obviously located in the wild star field and does not have much strategic value. . Or, it wasn't the Separatists?"
"This question will never be answered unless we catch the attackers."
"Weapons and ballistics have been inspected." A clone technical soldier came over and said.
"Say." Baloyi nodded.
“Look here.” The clone technicians brought them to a wall, pointed at the burn marks on the wall and said, “This side is the EE-3 and EE-4 blaster rifles. Gun marks can only be caused by shooting at about 20 meters. Because at this distance, the explosive gas has not fully reacted, so the fighting distance of this battle is not long. There are two possibilities. First. It's a surprise attack, and secondly, the opponent is very fast."
The clone technician pointed in another direction, "Look at this again, there are traces of high-temperature melting on the wall. This is not caused by the blaster rifle. Traces. Because the blaster rifle will explode after hitting the target, there will be no such concentrated burning and melting, so we judge that it is a laser weapon or a plasma weapon. Then based on the ballistic analysis, the opponent is about 2 meters tall. "
"Then, we found some footprints in the bushes. Judging from the footprints, the opponent weighed about 100Kg, had three toes, and had very flexible joints. , It doesn’t look like a machine, but the traces are neat and you can see that it is a very hard thing. It is currently impossible to tell whether the opponent has mechanical feet or is wearing shoes.”
Baloy said: “So, the attacker is 2 in height. A race that is about 3 feet long and walks upright with two legs with reverse joints and three toes on its feet... Are there any results from the database comparison? ”
"The conditions are not enough, and there is no result. But it can only be said that among the currently known intelligent races in the Milky Way, there are very few anti-joint bipeds. If it must be said, the Kilik people hundreds of thousands of years ago were found in the ruins of some ethnic groups. There are some similar structures, but they can’t match completely,” said the technician.
"Is it more likely that the other party is a robot or an intelligent creature?" Baloyi asked, "I can't feel the breath of life."
"Currently It seems that the possibility of robots is not high, because robots cannot be so clean and leave almost no traces. Therefore, I tend to think that it is an attack by an unknown race in the wild star field, and the other party may have something. Part of the Kilik genes," the clone technician said.
Baloy pondered.
A hoverbike came quickly, and the clone trooper on the car jumped out of the car and said loudly: "General! General!! I found those people! I found the body!!"
"Where?" Baloi asked hurriedly.
"Mining area! Outside the mining area! There are many! At least several thousand!" said the soldier.
"I noticed something wrong with your wording. Are you sure you said that?" Baloyi stared at the soldier.
"You will know if you go and take a look! The situation... is very strange." The soldier thought for a while and described it: "The corpse... the corpses are all pierced with steel drills!"
