A few minutes later, the Orville's shuttle boat successfully docked with the mysterious giant ship.
Immediately afterwards, a group of six people including Captain Ed, First Mate Kelly, Ship Doctor Claire, Safety Officer Alora, Robot Isaac, and Little Annie who was clamoring to follow, finally relied on Alola's
Juli successfully opened the isolation doors on both sides of the unknown giant spacecraft, allowing them to truly see the scene inside the mysterious spacecraft that shocked them at first sight.
turn out to be……
Is this an ecological boat?
Ed and others saw that here, there was a seemingly complete internal circulation ecosystem, with mountains, fields, rivers, forests, villages, roads, as well as simulated blue skies and white clouds above, etc.
And judging from the situation, there seems to be traces of intelligent life activities here, and it is not very far away from them. As for whether it is divided into multi-layered areas, it is temporarily unknown.
“What a sight I’ve never seen before!”
"It seems that what Anne usually says is right. Compared to our Orville, is it really just a broken ship?" Lin said.
"The universe is bigger than we imagined!"
When his feet set foot on the soft mountain mud, breathed in the fresh air, and felt the breath of nature, and then looked at the bushes and ancient trees around him, of course Ed felt that he would never be there again.
He couldn't help but blurt out his true thoughts, and admitted in front of others for the first time the fact that his Orville might really be a 'broken ship'.
"That's right."
"This must be a giant ecological ship, no wonder it is so big..."
"It must be so big to maintain the natural cycle!"
"Perhaps this is still an immigrant ship, in order to rely on the ecological balance here to maintain basic supplies during long-distance space voyages?"
"Did you see it?" Lin
"Here, it seems to be able to maintain the ecological balance on its own. This is the largest ecological boat I have ever seen. It's unbelievable!"
"This is a miracle!"
The ship's doctor next to him, Claire, also exclaimed in shock.
Then, after looking at the soil, weeds on the ground, and the mountains and rivers in the distance, she suddenly understood what everything in front of her meant.
"Miracle?"
(???.???)????
"It's just so-so!" Lin
(?^▽^?)
"It's quite big, but this kind of eco-ship is too simple. I've seen better, bigger and more advanced ones!"
(゜▽＾*)
Yes!
Unlike the idiots Uncle Ed and others who acted like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, they once stayed in the immigration ship group that was the predecessor of the Federation of Heroes in the Koprulu Sector, and then also went there in a certain game world.
Having played in an ultra-long-distance immigration ship group called 'Matier', Anne had already experienced the kind of ecosystem with its own ecosystem and a colonial fleet of tens of millions of people, so she was not surprised by this kind of thing.
From Annie's point of view, the eco-ship in front of her, floating in the universe without any means of defense and without even an engine, except that the self-contained internal ecological environment in front of her is somewhat rare and unexpected, is really
What's more, there is nothing more that makes her feel outstanding.
"??" comes
"Better, bigger and more advanced?"
Listening to Anne's words, Ed, who had just exclaimed, couldn't help but be startled, and then he couldn't help but exclaimed again, and tried to imagine the scene that Anne said in his mind.
"God!"
“I really can’t imagine it!”
Ed didn't doubt Annie's words, but he still couldn't imagine what a bigger, more advanced and better eco-ship would look like.
"if it is possible……"
"I really want to go to your country with you!" Lin
He knew that Annie came from a super advanced technological civilization, and also had the magical ability to travel through the planes, spaces, and universes. It was said that she had also traveled in different worlds, and the super-large universe federal country with that kind of technology
, it’s natural to look down upon the eco-ship in front of you.
"But this one is also very big."
"If people from the Planetary Alliance Command see it, they will definitely be frightened and surprised like us!"
"I can guarantee it!"
In Ed's opinion, even if this eco-ship is nothing in Annie's eyes, it is still very impressive in the eyes of the people in the Star Alliance. Although he doesn't know how the Planet Alliance will deal with it in the end.
But there is no doubt that Ed will get a share of the credit for nothing this time!
Thinking of this, he began to feel a little anxious in his heart.
"Don't talk about that yet." Lin
"look!"
At this time, First Officer Kelly suddenly interrupted everyone's surprise and pointed to a certain direction in the distance before asking:
"That's one..."
"road!"
"Right?"
She could see clearly that there was indeed a winding dirt road in the distance that spread to the other side of the forest and the mountains and wilderness beyond. The fact that there was a road and it was not submerged by weeds proved that there must be someone here, and there must be someone there.
Civilized humans or humanoids exist and live there!
"Maybe we should find the people here next and explain our purpose?" Lin
"most……"
"To ask them what is going on here?"
While making the proposal, Kelly also subconsciously felt that this ecological spaceship might not be as simple as it looks.
Or is its lifeless appearance, damaged engines, and the fact that it is falling towards a star just an external disguise?
Of course, that was just her guess.
But no matter what it is, Kelly only knows that the first thing they have to do now is to find the owner or leadership living in this giant ecological ship, and then ask them to find out what is going on.
And if the other party needs help from their planetary alliance, they will definitely not mind reporting it and letting someone handle it for follow-up.
"You really have to ask!" Lin
"Isaac!"
"Are there any signs of life here?"
Nodding, before the chatty first mate Kelly could continue, Ed turned to look at Isaac beside him and asked.
"Yes, Captain."
"I just found a lot of life signals."
"a lot of."
"Going straight ahead along that road, there should be a huge city with many lives gathering there." Lin
"Thousands and thousands."
Unlike the few people who were just in awe, the robot Isaac was undoubtedly the most conscientious among the six people in the group. It had been using a certain micro-instrument to scan and make related records since it came in, so for Ed
The question was answered instantly.
"Thousands?"
"Another city?"
"Ouch!"
"It seems we still underestimated this place!"
After looking at each other with Kelly who was also surprised, Ed didn't know what to say.
"But things are more complicated!"
"Since there is someone..."
"Then why are they so indifferent to the fact that the spacecraft is about to hit a star?"
After thinking about it, Ed still couldn't understand. He didn't know why those who lived in this eco-boat were indifferent to the conditions outside the eco-boat. Not only was there no maintenance between the outer shell, but also the engine and some
All defensive measures were abandoned.
"I also do not understand."
"Since there are clearly so many people here, and the ecosystem seems to be in pretty good condition, they should actively save themselves."
"No matter what happens, we can still send out a distress signal!" Lin Lin
Like Ed, ship's doctor Claire was also filled with doubts and shock.
"Who knows?"
"Maybe the signal transmitter is broken too?"
"After all, Isaac said that it is at least two to three thousand years old. If it hadn't been for Alola just now, we might not have been able to open its hatch that was corroded from the inside so easily."
"Maybe……"
"Do you think they are really in such big trouble that they can't even send signals?"
"That's not clear." Lin
"..."
"captain!"
“This ecological boat is of great research value!”
"I think we should find the captain here quickly and ask about the situation. Otherwise, the arrival of a few of us may cause some impact and damage to this internal cycle of ecology?"
"We have to hurry."
"oh!"
"You're right!" Lin
"But now the signal seems to be unable to penetrate the shell of the ship. Doesn't this ecological ship have some kind of shielding shell?"
"possible!"
"But Captain, I think the greater possibility is that its shell is too thick?"
"..."
"so!"
"Isaac, go out and send a message to the Orville, saying that the plan has changed and that we have to stay inside for a few more hours."
"The others are divided into two teams, one to the left and one to the right. Let's go separately to investigate and meet back here in three hours!" Lin
Everyone discussed it for a while. In the end, Captain Ed, who still couldn't figure out the situation, quickly made a decision and prepared to split up and briefly explore this weird ecological boat.
After all, it was currently colliding with a star, and there was still no sign of the engine starting. For both emotional and rational reasons, they could not turn a blind eye.
"Kelly, Allura!"
"You and Isaac will go to the port side to search later."
"Me and Claire and little Annie go right!"
"Ready for action!"
After making the decision, Captain Ed began to arrange personnel and issue orders.
"don't want!"
⊙﹏⊙‖∣°
"I don't want to be with Uncle Ed at all. I'd better follow Aunt Kelly and Sister Alora!"
(′?︵?`)
When she heard that she was about to be assigned to the other group, Anne, who was looking around, quickly protested loudly and said that she preferred to go to the left.
"this……"
"Alright!" Lin
"Then Isaac, you go out and signal the situation first, and then come back and join us. The three of you go to the left first!"
"start to act!"
Originally, Ed wanted to say that Alola and Annie were the two most powerful in combat, and it would be better to share one with each other to be safer or something like that. However, considering that they all carry guns and are here to provide help, it was hard to think about it.
If something unexpected happened, he quickly gave in to Anne's insistence, not wanting to waste more time on such insignificant issues.
But...
As the two parties separated, only half an hour later, the accident happened.
On the left, when Annie, Kelly and Alora walked over a hill and walked on the path in the wilderness, they soon encountered a backward four-wheel vehicle.
Immediately afterwards, two patrol officers who looked like policemen got out of the vehicle. After questioning the three of them in a difficult language that was just enough for Kelly and Alora to recognize, they questioned the three of them openly.
Let's do it. Pro
Then……
Then naturally there will be nothing more.
Caught off guard, the security officer Arora, who was said to have the highest force on the ship, was shot in the chest by a hail of bullets, and Aunt Kelly, who was trying to pull out a gun, was knocked unconscious by the butt of a gun.
Finally, it was when the two men were about to grab Annie, who seemed to be helpless, and Kelly, who was unconscious, into the car that Annie had to take action.
Anyway, the process was very simple. It was just a simple arcane impact. The two guys who were always shooting and wanting to kill people flew dozens of meters away and did not know whether they were dead or alive. Then, only Annie was left.
An off-road buggy and two unlucky guys who passed out.
"..."
(ー`′ー)pro
"This is the first time we have rescued them? It seems that they are all a bunch of idiots!"
(￢д￢.)
"No matter!"
ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas
Looking at the idiot Aunt Kelly and Miss Alola, who was said to be the most powerful, lying on the ground, Annie gave a rare sigh and cast a contemptuous look at them.
Then, after looking around and finding no one around, she used a floating technique to throw the two of them into the back seat of the vehicle.
"Aha!" Lin
??(′?｀?)???
Completely ignoring the two guys stuffed headfirst between the seats in the back seat, Annie jumped into the driver's seat after closing the door.
"It's been a while since I've been racing, Tibbs, let's go!
"
???(?)????
“Aha! Rush the duck!
"
＼＼\?('ω')?////
Then, after briefly looking at and understanding the basic structure and operation of the vehicle, Annie stepped on the accelerator and let the engine roar forward.
And whether her doing so would cause more trouble or cause the two unlucky guys behind to suffer more serious injuries, she didn't care at all.
She just kept driving forward at full speed along the uneven dirt road, and at the same time raised a large cloud of dust behind the car, as if she was afraid that others would not know that she was doing it.
Like racing and approaching the city at high speed.
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
(Tibbers is indifferent, because he knows that in this boring technological world, his bad little master will probably not let him appear easily, so he doesn't want to care about what the other party likes.
so many!)
