Start a Core Pod - #871 - Chapter 871: strange planet

Although there were some accidents, Duanmuhuai did not panic. He moved his eyes away from the smashed wreckage of the spacecraft and looked around. According to the detection reports of the auspicious instrument and helmet, this planet The environment is suitable for human survival, but the problem is…

“really weird……”

Duanmu Huai frowned. In fact, this attack seemed strange from beginning to end.

The first is a surprise attack. It is normal to be surprised, but it is a bit strange that this spacecraft is not detected and locked. Of course, this may also be because the opponent’s technology is more advanced than that of the Star Alliance. If the Inquisition is to deal with the Star Alliance, it will also The same thing can be done by taking things by surprise.

 So this is not too strange.

 But another point is strange.

 That’s the planet.

Duanmu Huai still remembered that it took less than ten seconds from the time he and others were attacked to the time the spacecraft was captured by gravity. In other words, logically speaking, they should be located on the periphery of the planet, so they were captured so quickly. The opponent’s gravity capture. But the problem is that there was no planet so close around them just now. The technology demonstrated by Zhen Ji Ling at that time allowed them to display the starry sky environment outside at 360 degrees, so no matter where the planet is, it will Judging from the fact that it can capture the spacecraft by gravity within ten seconds, the distance is definitely not too far.

Besides, even if I am blind, can I not see Ji Ling and Ogis?

　　Hey, as expected, I should still take Mary with me.

Duanmu Huai silently regretted that without the golden eyes, he was blinded by many things. He originally wanted to let them relax, so he didn’t take them with him. Now it seems that golden eyes are a must-have for home and travel. You can’t let go at all. If it were Mary, she would have noticed something was wrong.

 Of course, it is useless to say this now.

 “I’m sorry…brother.”

While Duanmuhuai was thinking, he heard Zhen Jiling’s voice coming from his ears. He turned his head and saw Zhen Jiling looking down at the ground.

“It’s all Kallen’s fault. If Kallen was more…”

 “Okay, this is not your problem, it was just an accident, don’t be so depressed.”

Duanmuhuai reached out and patted Zhen Jiling on the head and touched her ears.

“Just think of it as a new map randomly appearing, that’s pretty good, isn’t it?”

“but……”

“It’s just a small problem, and a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise, right, Ogis, what do you think?”

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai looked at Ojis, who was lying on his shoulder. The latter stared at Zhen Ji Ling, and then nodded slightly.

“Thank you.”

 “Uh…you’re welcome?”

 Watching Ogis thanking herself, Zhen Ling also for a moment… didn’t know how to react.

“…Anyway, let’s confirm the current situation first.”

Duanmuhuai coughed, breaking the awkward atmosphere. He knew what the little guy Ojis was thinking. The communication was interrupted, and he could not summon other soul cards, which meant that Ojis could finally monopolize him. …Although there is still a real clever person beside me, but…forget it, I will shed tears if I talk about it too much.

 In fact, Duanmuhuai has encountered many similar situations in the game. To put it bluntly, the soul card is also a psychic spell. Once the psychic energy is sealed or disappears, it is useless. For example, if you cover Duanmuhuai and then tie a circle of untouchable people outside, Duanmuhuai will not be able to use soul cards.

Of course, he can still use his fists to solve problems.

In Duanmuhuai’s view, generally speaking, when this kind of problem occurs, there is either a problem with the magnetic field of the planet itself, or there is some kind of sealing barrier on the planet. Duanmuhuai has just detected it with an auspicious instrument. The nearby indexes are all normal and there is no magnetic field interference. This means that there is no problem with the planet itself. I am afraid that the problem is some kind of barrier set here. .

“Boundary… does that mean we are facing a magical civilization?”

 After listening to Duanmu Huai’s introduction to the current situation, Zhen Ji Ling twitched his ears and asked.

“This is not necessarily true. Generally speaking, magical civilizations use things like wards more often, but some high-level technological civilizations will also use similar methods. Of course, they will not call them wards. If it’s sealed, I’ll definitely make up a convoluted name like ‘anti-energy field interference’ or something like that.”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai looked around.

“Of course, as of now, I think even if there is civilization on this planet, it should still be underdeveloped.”

“Yeah?”

“That’s right, it’s been half an hour since we fell. If we were on a more civilized planet, we would have discovered our existence a long time ago, but there’s no response now. It’s very likely that this planet doesn’t have any aerial surveillance system. , of course, maybe the other party is secretly watching our jokes…”

Having said this, Duanmu Huai paused for a moment.

“In short, no matter what, there is only one thing we have to do, which is to lift the barrier or seal on this planet, and then contact the Tribunal to take us out of here.”

 “So we have to find a place with people first?”

“That’s right. I’ll be in trouble for you when the time comes.”

 Duanmu Huai and Ojisi are too lazy to communicate with others. In the past, this kind of thing was basically done by An or Mary, but now that Zhen Ji Ling is here with superior charm, it is naturally left to her.

 “Okay! Please leave it to me, big brother!”

Hearing Duanmu Huai’s words, Zhenji Ling suddenly smiled.

 “Karen will definitely work hard!”

The first rule of getting lost is to find a place that is likely to be populated. Duanmu Huai thought the same way. In fact, after that, he specially activated his jetpack and flew once, looking around from a high altitude. Fortunately, Duanmuhuai saw traces of a city on the plain in the distance, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then a group of three people walked in the direction pointed by Duanmu Huai.

Every planet has different places, and this planet is the same. Of course, from the surface, this planet seems to be similar to other places, with green vegetation and trees, as well as flowers, birds, fish and insects, all of which are native species. . While moving forward, Duanmu Huai also saw cute furry creatures like squirrels or martens, but they all looked like ordinary creatures, and there were no monsters like Warcraft. Duanmu Huai’s speed was not slow, and as a horse girl, Zhen Ling was also very fast. It only took half a day for them to arrive in front of the city that Duanmu Huai had seen before.

 It’s just…

 “It has been destroyed.”

“yes.”

Looking at the ruins of the city in front of him, Zhen Ji Ling murmured to himself, while Duan Muhuai rolled his eyes helplessly.

 Before, I could only see signs of buildings here in the sky, but I didn’t expect that when I looked closer, I saw that the entire city was only in ruins…

Of course, there are problems.

“At least we can be sure that the city will not be destroyed for long.”

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he reached out his hand, grabbed half of the corpse from the ruins nearby, and shook it. Judging from his attire, he should be a soldier, wearing relatively rough leather armor. At this moment, the soldier has been cut off at the waist. Judging from the wound, it looks like it was cut smoothly by something.

“The body has not completely decomposed yet. Judging from the situation, it should only take a few days…”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai took off the soldier’s helmet, and then scanned his skull.

 “Well, no mutations, pure human beings.”

 “But, it’s really strange.”

Zhen Ji Ling also jumped to the high platform next to him, looked around, and murmured to himself at the same time.

“What’s wrong?”

“This city was destroyed, right? So what destroyed this city? If it was monsters or something, why couldn’t they find their corpses? But if it was humans… there should be other corpses, right? “

 “Indeed, it’s a bit strange.”

 Duanmuhuai threw the corpse aside casually. Just like what Zhen Ji Ling said, if it was a monster or monster, there should be their corpses. And if it was a civil war between humans, then there should be corpses wearing different armors, but along the way, the soldiers all around were all wearing the same clothes. In addition, there are some civilian victims.

 Of course, we do not rule out the possibility that the opponent is very powerful, so everything in the city will be wiped out with zero loss.

 “In short, let’s see if there are any survivors first.”

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai snapped his fingers, and soon the jetpack behind him opened, and then a servo skull flew out from it, with its eyes flashing red, flying around.

Taking advantage of the servo skull scan, Duanmu Huai also began to investigate the surrounding environment. After all, the development of a world’s civilization can be seen from things like buildings.

“The houses are still made of stone and ash… The level of civilization should not be high. The main weapons used are… swords and shields? Is it still the cold weapon era? There are no firearms? The clothes are also very average. Judging from the textile technology, it has indeed developed. The level is not high, there is an altar… The statues of gods here are not familiar, and they are not in the database. Well, maybe they worship local gods… provided that there really is a god…”

 Duanmu Huai walked through the ruins while investigating the surrounding situation. Most of the buildings are still intact, but some were obviously destroyed by the bombing. It is not yet sure whether it is magic or technology, but Duanmu Huai thinks that magic is more likely. At least in his opinion, the civilization of this city is It has not yet developed to the point of free use of firearms, and the auspicious device has not detected the reaction of flammable and explosive objects such as sulfur.

 Fortunately, after scanning around, Duanmuhuai finally figured out what was happening in the city.

 “They should have encountered a surprise attack.”

Duanmu Huai came to the ruined city wall and stretched out his hand to point to the broken tower.

“The attack should have come from the air. It is not yet certain whether it was a dragon or something. In short, the opponent first defeated the tower, then landed directly from the air, ensuring the entrance. Then the attacker army rushed in. Everything went very smoothly. This The city’s defenders didn’t even have time to block the door.”

Duanmuhuai glanced at the wooden doors at the city gate. They were open and leaning against the wall. It looked like they had not been attacked. If he had been prepared, the city gates should be closed instead of wide open. Yes, it has been smashed long ago.

“Needless to say, there was a massacre. The invaders rushed into the city and started killing. The city’s guards wanted to stop them, so they chose to defend in this building – there was a shrine inside, which should be a church or something like that. , however their efforts failed.”

Duanmuhuai walked to the square, looked at the broken limbs and corpses scattered around, and shrugged his shoulders.

“Once, twice…well, a perfect carpet bombing, I would have done the same thing, all in all, the defense collapsed and then it was over. The attack was sophisticated, but the question is…why?”

“Isn’t it generally true that when you attack a city, you want to seize treasure?”

“There is also the possibility of capturing the city, but as of now it is neither possible.”

Duanmu Huai shook his head, then reached out, grabbed a locked cabinet, and smashed it open. There were some clothes and jewelry that looked like they were made of gold.

“Look, no one has touched such an obvious treasure chest. If the players had already cleared the ground, there would be no way to keep it.”

“So, the ones who attacked the city were not humans? Was it some kind of monster or something?”

“It’s hard to say… Is there such a powerful monster? There’s not even a corpse left? Huh?”

At this moment, Duanmu Huai suddenly raised his head and looked towards the corner of the city.

 “What’s wrong? Big brother?”

 “The servo skull is under attack, looks like it’s going to be fun.”

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stood up.

“let’s go!”
