Chapter 1,029 The End of the Top-Secret Flight

Earth time, May 4th.

Tens of millions of kilometers away in deep space, an aircraft is sailing at a constant speed.

Inside this aircraft, which looked like a dead thing, lay a young man. Wearing a respirator on his head, he lay quietly in the sleep chamber, as if his body functions had completely stopped. The entire sleeping cabin is embedded in the driver's seat of the electric ray's cockpit. The inside of the glass cover is dotted with ice shards, like an ice coffin exuding a deep cold air.

The blue signal light flashed slightly, and with a slight noise, the mist slowly floated out from the gaps on both sides of the dormant cabin, and was sucked away by the fan on the inner wall of the cabin. The glass shield on the top slowly opened, and then the entire dormant cabin cracked into four steel shells, which were retracted behind the cockpit.

"Sleep is over..."

An emotionless electronic sound rang in his ears. Liu Qingpeng opened his eyes and moved his stiff limbs. After taking off the respirator, his stomach twitched suddenly and he hunched over and retched twice, but nothing came out except bile.

In order to prevent the food in the gastric band from rotting and destroying the homeostasis of the internal environment, he ate a nutritional mixture for three days before the flight.

Holding the joystick in his hand, the cold feeling gradually faded away from his whole body. It took Liu Qingpeng a while to recover from the discomfort.

"I...has it arrived?"

"Connecting the navigator for you... Please wait." After confirming the driver's heartbeat, the green signal light flashed slightly, and a cool electronic sound sounded in his ears. Soon, a burst of FM noise sounded in his ears. After a while, the vague sound gradually became clear.

"This is the command center. Please answer when you hear it."

After adjusting his breathing, Liu Qingpeng pressed the button on his helmet and turned on the mic, "Electric Ray A-1, received."

Navigator: "I'm glad to hear your voice again. It seems you are still alive... zizi..."

Liu Qingpeng smiled and stretched his stiff neck, "Can I take this as your blessing?"

"sure."

From the ground command center to his current location, even electromagnetic waves take four to five minutes to travel. However, in the face of quantum entanglement effect communication technology, this distance of tens of millions of kilometers has been easily spanned. Although the sound was mixed with a lot of noise, the communication was still smooth.

Under the instructions of the navigator, he corrected the route again.

The electric ray began to slow down.

From his current position, he could already see the unnatural black spot with his optical sight.

This discovery made him both surprised and uneasy. Surprisingly, he was lucky, and there was no accident during the tens of millions of kilometers of death flight. The uneasy thing was that even the navigator couldn't tell him what exactly was waiting for him there.

He glanced at the Gauss rifle inserted next to his right leg in the cockpit. However, this outer space-specific rifle, which was said to cost one million Singapore dollars, did not give him a great sense of security. He very much doubted whether this expensive "toy" would come in handy if he encountered an alien with a laser gun.

"Get closer to the UFO. If the opponent responds with an attack... sizz..."

The communication from the ground command center was suddenly interrupted. Liu Qingpeng frowned and restarted the communication device, but still did not receive a signal from the earth.

"Communication shielding?" He muttered to himself, rubbed the safety on the joystick with his fingers, and looked through the optical sight at the unnatural darkness dozens of kilometers away.

There was no extra energy for him to apply the brakes, change the course, fly out of the communication-shielded airspace, ask for instructions, and then turn back. There is only one chance of contact, and there are only twenty-four hours left for him to investigate the target.

This distance of tens of kilometers took the Electric Ray A-1 a full four hours to fly. When the pitch-black UFO approached a distance that could be observed with the naked eye, the electric ray finally ended its deceleration phase and reached a relatively stationary state with it.

All communications were blocked, and even if the drone was released, the screen was all white.

Looking at the darkness hundreds of meters away and hesitating for a moment, Liu Qingpeng gritted his teeth, pulled out the Gauss rifle from his right leg, fastened the gun belt to the nylon buckle on the waist of the spacesuit, and then manually opened the cockpit of the electric ray. He jumped lightly into the deep space.

Being in the boundless darkness, the deep-seated fear instinctively crawled into my heart.

After taking several deep breaths, he finally overcame his instinctive fear of the deep sea. He moved his arms slightly back, controlled the small nozzles at the joints, and used the reaction force of the jets to float towards the UFO.

When he got closer to ten meters, the inconsistent feeling of tearing the screen suddenly disappeared. In front of where the flashlight was pointed, a silver-white ball about ten meters in diameter suddenly appeared in his field of vision. The only thing he could conclude at this moment was that this was definitely not a natural phenomenon that happened by chance.

Liu Qingpeng set up the Gauss rifle in his hand, controlled the nozzle to adjust his speed, flew around the ball, and found a crooked break on its back. Fragments of meteorites can be seen on the iron frame inside the fracture.

"Hit by a meteorite? What a coincidence..." Liu Qingpeng muttered quietly, but he was secretly relieved.

Even the meteorites flying in the direction could not be avoided. It was obvious that the energy of this aircraft had been exhausted. In fact, when he came in, he was a little worried. If the aircraft suddenly flew away when he came in, then he would really not be able to go back.

The spherical aircraft has three floors up and down, with the middle floor being the widest. In this aircraft, he found no trace of aliens, no traces of sleeping cabins, and he didn't even find the driver's seat.

Maybe it was an unmanned aircraft in itself, or maybe he just couldn't understand the existence of the advanced creature holding this aircraft.

"It seems that this toy is no longer of use." Liu Qingpeng twitched the corner of his mouth, forced a smile, lowered the muzzle of the rifle in his hand, and walked back and forth in the hall on the middle floor, inspecting carefully Every corner, take photos and collect evidence at the same time.

This aircraft should have once belonged to a certain civilization, and most likely it was a civilization that has disappeared in the long river of time.

Nature has erased everything it ever existed, leaving only this wreckage floating in deep space.

It took about thirty minutes for Liu Qingpeng to take pictures of every corner of the upper, middle and lower floors of the aircraft. With nearly 1G of stored data, his mission for this trip was finally completed.

That's how it should be.

However, just when he returned to the hall on the middle floor and stood next to the platform he first came into contact with to check the photos, he accidentally discovered a dent on the flat platform by the light of the flashlight.

That dent is very special, as if only the light cutting in from a specific angle can reveal its clues.

"Is this?" Frowning slightly, he stretched out his hand and lightly touched the dent. At the same time, a light suddenly lit up from the platform. A round sphere slowly rose from the other side of the platform, separated from the platform, and floated above the platform.

This lost civilization seemed to have a soft spot for orbs.

Staring blankly at the fluorescent ball, Liu Qingpeng couldn't hold back his curiosity and reached out to grab the ball... (To be continued.) Launch a new website
