Chapter 829 The Lost Fleet (2)
828. The Lost Fleet (2)
Finally, after flying for 29 standard hours, the Plague battleship finally arrived at the unknown fleet. In the area where they were located, due to constant damage and malfunctions inside the battleship, they were 4 hours later than expected.
However, the powerful fleet composed of 200 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers still made no movement and was just floating quietly in the universe.
Severance Tann looked at the 200 fleets arranged in a dense formation through the sensor screen, frowning, and then she opened the public channel and said: "This is the Western Territory Theater of the Independent System Confederacy. , Titan Battleship Plague, we are here to surrender, and we hope you will accept our sincerity.”
"General!" The adjutant's expression changed drastically, but he immediately understood what Tann meant.
Another 10 minutes passed and there was still no response.
"General, do you think we should try to fire a shot first?" the adjutant said softly.
Even he himself didn’t know why he spoke so quietly. Maybe he was worried about waking up the 200 battleships?
“No, just send people to board some of the battleships.” Severance Tann said.
"Isn't this a bit risky?" The adjutant frowned.
"We don't have much time left." Severance Tann said, "Instead of blindly testing here, it is better to board the ship directly to check. How many usable exploration spacecraft do we have?"
The adjutant immediately replied: "There are 12 more ships, all of which are small spacecraft that can only carry 5 people."
"Divided into three groups, and randomly selected from the front, middle and rear of the fleet formation. A spacecraft is trying to dock." Severance Tann gave the order directly.
“Yes!”
Twelve exploration spacecraft loaded with some Marine soldiers and B-1 combat robots activated from the inventory flew towards three randomly selected Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers.
On the bridge, Severance Tann and members of the staff were also watching their movements on the screen.
The exploration spacecraft cautiously approached the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser, and then found the entrance to the hangar platform under the battleship. However, the hangar platform was tightly closed, and there was nothing that could be done about the exploration spacecraft turning around several times.
An engineer standing next to Severance Tann thought of a way. He asked the exploration spacecraft to directly use the civilian frequency band to send a maintenance message to the warship.
I didn’t expect that this method would actually work. The heavy armored gate on the hangar platform actually opened!
The engineer was somewhat proud and explained: "I am just treating a dead horse as a doctor, because in order to prevent unexpected situations from being unable to rescue, the battleship will not lock the entrance and exit when it is on standby."
"On standby? Why would this fleet fly into such a void to stand by?" Severance Tann frowned, "Generally, warships will only enter the standby state when they are anchored in the port area. Once they set off, they will never be on standby. It will be on standby like this, especially for warships."
"At least this shows that these warships are now completely unmanned," the engineer said.
At this time, the Marine Corps soldier who was the first to enter the battleship hangar had already sent a video message, "General, we are in the hangar now. There are 12 Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets parked here. They are in a fearless state. The heavy cruiser is designed to be fully loaded." He adjusted the camera on his space combat suit to display the images of the neatly arranged fighter jets. "There are no fighter jets taking off, which means they have not fought." Severance Tann said, "Continue to go deeper."
The Marines continued to walk towards the depths of the battleship with the B-1 combat robot as the leader, but were blocked by the compartment door. "General, the compartment door cannot be opened. This makes no sense?"
< br>The engineer also said on the side: "It really doesn't make sense. If the spacecraft is on standby, it is absolutely impossible to lock the compartments on the hangar platform. Moreover, why is it that the compartments inside the hangar are locked, but the hangar is not locked? The hatch outside the platform? That’s too strange.”
Severance Tann said solemnly: “Maybe they want to prevent people inside from getting out. At the same time, they also want people from outside to come in. "
"What did you say?" the adjutant was shocked, "Is it a rebellion?"
Severance Tann shook her head, stood up and took off the general's uniform jacket. , said; "If the same situation applies to other battleships, then let the exploration spacecraft come back and transport a group of people and cutting equipment. I will first enter one of the battleships personally and use a lightsaber to cut the hatch."
"General! This fleet is full of weirdness, I'm afraid it may be in danger." The adjutant said quickly.
Severance Tann thought for a while and said, "Prepare a space protective suit for me too."
As the exploration spacecraft began to put more marines and robots in While the cutting equipment was being sent over, Severance Tann also personally boarded one of the Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers.
She directly pulled out her yellow lightsaber and stabbed it into the hatch. The ultra-high temperature of the lightsaber melted and penetrated the hatch almost instantly, and then began to move the lightsaber, melting the thick hatch directly and cutting out a large hole as tall as a person.
The several B-1 combat robots that had been on standby immediately stepped forward and pushed, knocking down the cut hatch. The interior of the battleship was finally revealed to everyone.
Pfft... There was no banging sound after the hatch was pushed down. Instead, it seemed as if it had fallen on something soft, and almost no sound was made.
"Oh my God!!" Then the Marines exclaimed.
Everyone, including Severance Tann, couldn't help but back away after seeing the scene inside the hatch.
Unlike the hangar platform, which is clean and tidy and looks like brand new, behind the hatch, it is a complete hell! !
Countless corpses were piled on top of each other, crowded together, all blocked at the hatch door. They were dead and ferocious, with hundreds of hands stretched out densely, as if they were trying to grab something. The walls and floor were covered with bloodstains and bloody scratches that had turned black. This sight could give people nightmares for a month!
Even the hell in your imagination is nothing more than this!
These corpses were all wearing the gray uniforms of the Republic's Judicial Fleet, which had been completely replaced after the outbreak of the war, and...
"There were no signs of shooting." Sever. Lance Tann has recovered. Although she still doesn't have the courage to go there, she has begun to observe the situation over there from a distance. "These corpses were not killed by guns."
There are already several The Marines retched over there. They tried very hard to hold back from vomiting in the fully sealed space combat suit.
