Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1463 Energy Exhaustion
Of course, Alyssa was told about An Yun’s warning.

However, while Alyssa was mentally prepared, she did not intend to change her decision.

As a recycler, she would definitely want to go up and take a look.

As a lieutenant colonel in the army, she was also obliged to confirm what had happened to the ship so as to protect the main fleet from mines.

It is impossible to just walk away, both publicly and privately.

In order to ensure that they can deal with possible threats at any time, Alyssa was not brought on the bridge this time, so that the Swan has the ability to fight with warships at any time.

In addition to Dui and Lieutenant Cao Wei, as well as Sophia and Shanafia, the members who entered the transport ship also brought ten soldiers.

Considering the possible deadly biological and chemical pollution remaining on the transport ship, everyone put on heavy protective clothing, carried double oxygen, and prepared the Swan for biological and chemical disinfection.

Hall drove the Silver Cyclone out of the airlock first, and circled the transport ship to keep watch, ready to provide support at any time.

Since Li Chengxi was not there, Alyssa personally drove the Manta Ray closer to the transport ship.

There were indeed no visible scars on the surface, but there was something not quite right.

For example, the coating on this ship seems to have been scraped off, revealing the metallic color underneath.

Many ships are painted on their surfaces. In addition to providing a certain degree of protection against cosmic rays, these coatings are also important visual identification measures.

The coating on this ship disappeared. It was not that the coating was not sprayed at all, but that it was scraped clean.

This gave the people sitting close to it on the Manta some very bad associations.

It felt like this transport ship had been swallowed by some gigantic monster, and was being eaten clean, just like pork ribs.

Since Li Chengxi was not there and Fang Lanyin was not on the list of people allowed to enter the transport ship, the Manta Ray was unable to enter through the transport ship's airlock.

Guided by the Swan's scanner, Alyssa found a hatch that could be opened from the outside and docked with it using the Manta's rear hatch.

Although the ship seemed to have run out of energy, the hatch was a mechanical structure and once docked, the Manta could control whether to open it.

Everyone was ready. As the airtight door emitted a hissing sound of exhaust, Dui and Lieutenant Cao Wei immediately led their men to rush in and check the back door corridor on the left and right.

"No threats found, this place looks to have completely lost power."

Lieutenant Duy reported, but also swallowed.

A ship keeps its interior lights on at all times, unless the lights fail or the ship shuts down its reactor completely.

So even for those who have spent most of their lives on ships, it is rare to see a ship with all the lights on board completely turned off.

In the darkness, the seemingly ordinary corridor now looked like the throat of some monster, which was chilling.

But Alyssa was not scared by the darkness. Recyclers often go to ruins that no one has been to for thousands of years to pick up ghost ships and gold coins. Apart from anything else, the ruins where the boot disk was found were much larger than here. Alyssa still dared to rush in with a few people to search. She was quite brave.

She operated on her personal terminal and called up the approximate structural diagram provided by the scanner on the Swan.

"Let's keep going. Turn left. This way we can get to the bridge."

Once you enter a ghost ship, you can't run around like a headless fly.

First, we have to go to the bridge to confirm what happened to the ship, and then go to the cargo hold, engine room, and various cabins to check to make sure nothing is missed.

Alyssa has explored ghost ships many times with her grandfather, so she is of course familiar with this process.

Due to the lack of artificial gravity, everyone could only float in the corridor and move forward by relying on the handrails. Dui and Cao Wei led the way in front, while Shanafia, Sophia and the golem named Benben were responsible for the rear.

Alyssa was caught in the middle and was fiddling with the instrument. The air quality detector told Alyssa that there was still air in this place, but it was relatively thin. It should be caused by the air circulation system going on strike due to loss of energy.

No microorganisms or viruses were found in the air, which does not seem to be the result of some special disease that caused the sudden death of all employees.

Besides, even if the crew died due to an acute infectious disease, how could the reactor not work? There is no virus that can affect the reactor, right?

Either the ship has been floating in the void for too long, so long that the reactor has shut down automatically due to no one maintaining it, and the equipment on the ship that has not been shut down has consumed all the stock in the energy storage pool, so this is the state that Alyssa sees now.

Either that or something was not normal.

There was no sound in the dark corridor, and the lights on the protective suits cast irregular circles of light in the darkness.

Not everyone was as calm as Alyssa. Many of the soldiers who came with her had never seen such a situation before. They all gripped their guns tightly and looked very nervous.

Fortunately, they were professional soldiers. No matter how nervous they were, they did not forget that they should not point their guns at their teammates, and they did not put their fingers on the triggers. Otherwise, in such a tense environment, the slightest movement might lead to a friendly fire incident.

The size of this transport ship is much larger than the Swan. The scanner scans the hull structure from the outside, but due to the obstruction of the armor plate, it is not very accurate.

Alyssa only used the scan results as a reference. In terms of the route ahead, she mainly relied on Alyssa's experience and the occasional road signs in the corridor for navigation.

The quiet environment would gradually amplify the fear, but nothing happened along the way. No one saw any monsters, nor even the bodies of any crew members.

It was as if this ship was not driven by humans, but was flown here by remote control.

In the end, Alyssa led everyone around for nearly half an hour before they finally found the way to the bridge.

The bridge door was of course sealed, and because of the loss of power, it could not be opened by pressing a few buttons from the outside.

There was usually an emergency switch nearby, but Alyssa was too lazy to look for it.

Sanafia stepped forward, and with her exaggerated brute force, the little girl easily forced the heavy door open with just two clicks, directly breaking the door's mechanical structure.

The others aimed their guns at the open door and waited a few seconds to make sure they heard no movement or had any response before they began to clean up.

The interior of the bridge is very ordinary. Judging from the shape of the bridge, it is a common type of bridge and there is nothing worth mentioning.

But, still no one was seen, not even a corpse.

Alyssa carefully checked the seats of each member in the bridge. These seats had varying degrees of slight wear and tear, and were obviously used frequently. The seat belts were also unfastened, not closed on the seats.

It felt like something happened suddenly, causing everyone in the bridge to unbuckle their seat belts and quickly escape.

If you want to determine what exactly happened to the ship, the captain's seat terminal on the bridge is your best choice.

All records of the entire ship from the beginning of its voyage will be stored in the shipboard terminal. Unless someone specifically deletes them, there will definitely be traces left.

This is like a ship's logbook. Unless the ship changes hands, no one will deliberately delete it.

Alyssa came to the captain's seat and pressed the button, but as expected, the terminal did not respond.

This situation was expected. Alyssa took out a metal can the size of a water cup, then personally disassembled the terminal casing and connected a few wires to the metal can in her hand.

The metal tank is filled with liquid magic power, which is a battery. This method can allow a terminal that has lost energy to be activated for a period of time.

After a few seconds, the terminal started up successfully. Alyssa heard the slight sound of the mechanical hard drive reading, and the terminal screen lit up slightly.

But when Alyssa raised her head and planned to take a good look at what was displayed on the terminal, a line of words first caught her eye.

'We can't escape.'
