Chapter 1462 Ghost Ship

During the war, not many people dared to sail. Generally, only black marketeers or shipping companies that valued money over life dared to engage in this business.

Alyssa took a closer look at the outer armor of the ship, but did not find any emblem indicating its identity.

Not every small fish can afford a large transport ship, and black market traders can't afford it either. The most they can use are medium-sized transport ships, which are about the same size as the Swan.

Therefore, large transport ships generally belong to large transport companies, and such companies will of course leave clear logos on the ship.

Alyssa looked at the ship and felt a dull pain in her head. The implant on her head seemed to be reminding Alyssa that this place was not very good and she should leave quickly.

"The transport ship did not respond to any of our communications and the automatic answering machine was not responding."

After trying several times, Villania said helplessly:
"Either the ship has completely lost all power, or they never installed an automatic transponder."

Ships without transponders do exist, but they are extremely rare, because without them you can't enter a neutral space station.

Even pirate ships must have it, even if the pirates' automatic answering machines reply with gibberish.

Otherwise the neutral space station will not open the door for you.

"Image comparison complete, it's not in the database, where was this thing built?"

Not only was it not in the Swan's database, Alyssa connected the implant on her head to the bridge and searched her own database, but still couldn't find it.

This is a very new thing. Alyssa's database was inherited from her grandfather. There should be no ships in the known universe that Alyssa doesn't recognize.

Even if it is a new type of ship, it should inherit some of the design of the original ship, and be able to roughly analyze information such as where the ship was built and who it serves.

But no, nothing, it just seemed to come out of nowhere.

It feels more and more strange.

Alyssa ordered the fleet to continue approaching. They had to find out what was going on with the ship.

If this ship is an enemy ship, it must be sunk. If it is stranded due to an accident, Alyssa must also find out what the accident was, so as to avoid making the same mistake when the main force of the fleet passes here in the future.

As the distance gets closer, the picture becomes clearer and clearer, and many details of the ship can be seen.

"It's an armed merchant ship."

"After all, when navigating in a war zone, one must be somewhat sure of oneself."

You can see the gun barrel that has been pushed out of the gun position on the cargo ship. It even has a rocket launcher, but it looks like it has been fired and has not been reloaded.

The size of a heavy cargo ship is similar to that of a destroyer. Once armed, it can deter pirates and the like, and this operation is quite common.

As they continued to get closer, everyone was quite certain that something was wrong with the ship, and it was an internal problem.

Because its engine was intact and even the surface of the hull was as good as a new ship, without even a scratch.

This is definitely not caused by an attack.

Alyssa asked Villania to use the Swan's searchlight to send a set of light signals to the transport ship. If there were any living people on the ship, they should respond with light signals.

But no, still no response.

This is of course very abnormal. Even if the ship loses power and energy within the ship, the searchlight is independent and can be activated by liquid magic power. Even a little bit of liquid magic power is enough for it to flash twice.

"Should we get any closer?"

An Yun's question interrupted Alyssa's thoughts, and she said:
“That ship gave me a bad feeling.”

At this time, Long suddenly said:

"Could that be a ghost ship?"

Ghost ships appear on the sea and of course in the void.

In fact, it is not that mysterious. It is just that it has been isolated from the outside world for a long time. Once an acute infectious disease occurs, all the people on the ship will die. This is the essence of the ghost ship.

Alyssa also thought it might be a ghost ship, but possibility and certainty are two different things.

During the voyage of the ship, there is a rescue obligation, not to mention that Alyssa's recyclers' blood began to boil. Although the ghost ship is dangerous, it also means wealth.

Judging from the size of the ship, the amount of things it transports is not a small amount.

Of course, even now as a member of the Whirlpool Federation Army, Alyssa has the obligation to find out what happened to the transport ship.

So she said:

"Keep getting closer, fire the main gun, and keep aiming."

If the ship intended to play dead to lure Alyssa into the trap, it would be shot to pieces the moment it revealed its flaw.

The shield of the transport ship is far less strong than that of the battleship and can't withstand a few shots.

The three-ship formation led by the Swan continued to approach, and the system issued an alarm that it was too close, reminding those in the bridge not to get too close to the gas planet.

However, this is just a warning. With the power of the cruise ship, this distance is still within the tolerable range and there is no need to worry about being captured by gravity.

The transport ship still did not respond, and even when the three-ship formation came so close that they were almost face to face, there was still no movement.

Villania activated the scanner and conducted a detailed scan and analysis of the transport ship.

"The hull structure is intact. No human movement has been detected. The reactor inside the ship seems to have completely cooled down. However, some infrared information remains in the cargo hold at the rear of the hull. It is speculated that there is still a certain heat source. We also found a large mass in the cargo hold, which may be a fully loaded container or something like that."

"Can you analyze what it is specifically?"

"No, the transport's armor plating is too thick, blocking most of the signature."

From the outside, this is the limit. We can’t get more information. The scanner is not a X-ray machine.

Alyssa thought about it:

"Let the friendly forces stand guard nearby, notify Fang Lanyin, and get the Manta ready."

Long couldn't help but hold the crystal ball on his head and said:
"You don't want to go up and take a look?"

“As a recycler, if you encounter a ghost ship and don’t go on board to check it out, wouldn’t that mean you’ve got your permit in vain?”

Recyclers are commonly known as rag pickers, and ghost ships are exactly what recyclers like to encounter the most.

Of course, Alyssa could also emphasize it by carrying out military missions, but there was no need for that when facing Long.

"Is Li Chengxi not here today?"

"I haven't heard him speak yet. I guess he's busy with something else."

As long as you put the boot disk on it, no matter what ghost ship it is, you will instantly become Li.

However, Li Chengxi was still paying attention to Yang Yiyi and didn't turn around to look over.

Just as he was about to unbuckle his seat belt, An Yun said:

"Boss, you'd better be careful, that ship might not be an ordinary ghost ship."

"Did your psychic powers detect anything?"

An Yun shook his head:
"I can't use my psychic powers for now. It seems to have reached a transformation period."

The psychic power strength of a psychic can grow. Since boarding the Swan, An Yun has overused his psychic power several times and has also been to the divine realm. These are all factors that stimulate the growth of psychic power.

In terms of the strength of psychics, An Yun is actually weak. A real psychic is no worse than a wizard in terms of fighting ability.

The transformation period will last from three to four days to a week, during which time An Yun's spiritual power will appear and disappear.

But even when his psychic energy was at its least sensitive during its transformation period, An Yun felt that something seemed wrong with the ship.

She looked at the ship, as if staring into a dark vortex, her consciousness was about to be sucked away.

She didn't know what happened up there, she only knew that it was definitely beyond common sense and extremely strange.
