Chapter 1260 Something will happen sooner or later
Go back in time a little further, aboard the Swan.
Shanna lay on the porthole, looking at the dim world of ice and snow outside, and couldn't help but said:
"When will Sister Alyssa and the others come back? Shanna doesn't like this place."
The golem guarding behind her let out a low rumble. It was hard to tell whether it was comforting Zannah.
"It should be soon."
Villania was looking at the data on the bridge:
"Alyssa said the auction will end in about three or four hours."
"What a shame they don't allow psykers in."
Anyun said sadly:
"I also want to see what the most complete auction in the known universe will look like."
"Nothing to see."
Carlos still stayed at the helmsman's position, feeling like he had never sat down to rest:
"Except for some antiques, most of the auction items are just to satisfy some people's perverted fetishes. You should have met Jimmy Harder, the leader of the Harder Gang, right? Many customers are perverts like him, but the number has to be doubled. Hundreds of times."
Hearing what Carlos said, An Yun shuddered. Indeed, there was nothing interesting to see at the auction.
Normally, once the dock enters the port, only a small number of people will be left on duty on the bridge, and the others will go back to their rooms to rest.
This is not special consideration, but a rule.
The work on the bridge seems easy, not only sitting but also having the air conditioner blowing, but in fact it is extremely physically demanding.
Daily navigation involves a large number of repetitive and boring operations, and emergencies test the adaptability of all crew members, and the working hours are extremely long, so it is necessary to ensure that the staff on the bridge are energetic.
This time everyone stayed on the bridge because the Diving Devil was indeed not a very safe place, and there were disputes caused by auctions every year.
And as long as it doesn't happen inside the deep-diving devil, they will definitely not care.
Therefore, the Swan is always ready to depart at any time, ensuring that if something unexpected happens, it can run away as soon as possible.
It has to be said that this kind of careful operation may not be used once a hundred times, but as long as it is used once, it is not in vain.
For example, now.
Everyone who was chatting suddenly saw an ultra-long ion beam flying diagonally, and the remaining light was reflected on the glass of the bridge.
Villania immediately put down the information:
"What's that?"
An Yun also noticed it and guessed:
"It looks like an ion beam to the sky."
"Yes, that is an ultra-long-range anti-air ion beam. It should be the defensive equipment of the deep-diving devil."
Carlos is a real veteran. He can recognize this kind of anti-aircraft equipment equipped on the ground such as asteroids at a glance.
"Maybe the deep-diving devil is performing a system self-check. One or two ion beams are normal..."
Before he finished speaking, one after another, anti-air ion beams pierced the darkness, and the intense light reflected on the endless ice field of the deep-diving devil. At first glance, it looked like fireworks in the sky.
"This isn't right."
Carlos immediately held the steering wheel with both hands and said to Anyun and Villania: "Immediately detect with psychic energy whether a warship has jumped over, contact the air traffic control tower and ask what happened."
Villania and Anyun put on headphones one after another, but one was worn on the ears and the other on the temples.
Just for a while, the anti-air ion beams that pierced the darkness and shot up into the sky became more and more dense. If they were like fireworks just now, they now looked like a reverse meteor shower.
"Confirming the target, twenty unknown warships appeared in the deep-diving devil's synchronous orbit. The ships are similar in size to a destroyer."
Villagna also said: "The tower did not respond and the communication equipment was blocked. It is likely to be large-scale signal interference."
This is definitely not a system self-test or exercise, but someone massively invading the Deep Diving Demon.
"More jump signals appear, the number is 10, no, 20! Still increasing! The ships discovered earlier are approaching rapidly, and they may be airborne!"
At the same time that An Yun said this, Shanafia saw from the porthole that the extremely dense anti-air ion beam just now began to become sparse. In less than ten seconds, the ion beam was so sparse that only one or two were left. hair.
"It is speculated that the Deep Diving Devil's system has been compromised, and the same binary code is now being broadcast on nearby communication channels."
Villania held on to the earphones, listened carefully and translated:
“We are a spark in the divine current, we are a gear in the majestic machine, we are a heating wire in the glory of creation, We will merge into His great code."
After swallowing his saliva, Villania finally said:
"The heretics must be destroyed. Die, you blasphemers." "I knew that sooner or later something would happen to these bastards, the Deep Diving Devils!"
Upon hearing this, Carlos made a decisive decision:
"Notify the engine room, heat up the reactor, ignite the engine, and the Swan will perform self-check procedures and take off immediately!"
Shanafia still didn't understand and asked:
"Carlos, do you know what this means?"
"I don't know, but the Deep Diving Devil's auction is always the finale of sacred relics. Sooner or later they will get into trouble with some religious lunatics who don't care about their lives."
After casually replying to Shanafia, Carlos continued:
"Turn on the radar and scanner, the tower doesn't work and now we have to rely on ourselves."
"But Alyssa and the others haven't come out yet, and they haven't had any contact."
"Li Chengqi has been silent all this time, and he should still be with Alyssa."
"I know!"
Carlos quickly prepared for takeoff:
"So we have to go to the deep dive devil's gate to meet them. Don't worry, the captain is harder to kill than a cockroach. They will definitely be able to escape."
This sentence was meant to comfort others on the bridge, but also for myself.
After all, judging from Alyssa's experience during this period, Carlos felt that if it had been him, he would have died countless times.
Then he turned around and used the communication equipment at the captain's seat to contact the hangar:
"Hall, are you there?"
"Here, I saw an ion beam outside. Is something wrong?"
"We don't know the details here. We can only confirm that someone is attacking the deep-diving devil. Can the shuttle be used?"
"It should be okay. Mechanic Fang maintains it every day."
"Be prepared to attack and go out to meet Captain Alyssa at any time."
"Yes! Vice Captain"
"The temperature of the reactor rises and the power is stable."
"Engine fire!"
The Swan's floating engine began to gather glowing ions. As it became brighter and brighter, the engine power was gradually increasing, pushing the Swan upward little by little.
"Sanna, find a place to sit, it may be a little bumpy."
"oh."
Shanna was very obedient at this time and immediately found a seat to sit down.
Benben fastened her seat belt and also knew how to use straps to secure herself under the bridge wall.
As the power of the floating engine continues to increase, the Swan successfully breaks away from the ground and is executing the suspension mode.
"At nine o'clock, armor-piercing incendiary grenades are coming!"
Hearing An Yun's reminder, Carlos worked hard to reach the full direction.
The Swan just drifted in place and immediately turned ninety degrees.
Immediately afterwards, a grenade flashing with a fierce red light hit the ice below the Swan, and the splashed ice covered the bottom of the Swan like shotguns.
"The optical sighting equipment confirmed that the Deep Diving Devil has been invaded. Where are we going now?"
"Get as close as possible and intervene from the rear left."
Carlos controlled the steering wheel calmly:
"Vilania, continue to contact the tower. An Yun, please pay attention to whether there are grenades or enemy warships approaching. As soon as we receive Captain Alyssa, we will immediately start the main engine and escape from this cold, broken planet!"
When the Swan began to maneuver, in the distance, one warship after another emerged from the darkness. Through the observation equipment, you could clearly see that the opponent's gun doors were open, and they launched a thorough attack on all the deep-diving devil facilities on the ground. bombing.
I hope Alyssa and the others escaped.
