Chapter 342 Flying to Purgatory Star

The journey in deep space can be said to be quite boring, but the two female elves on board are spell casters and researchers after all, so there will always be endless things to think about and endless experiments to conduct;

So most of the time, they have to be busy in various spaceship laboratories, and there is not much spare time to feel this kind of boredom.

And in this process, whenever there are some new ideas, new confusions, or small results in the research, their intermittent communication will appear as a way of adjustment and exploration.

Although there may be different research to be done, they all belong to the same project team after all, so the ultimate direction of the tasks at this stage is the same, and they are all related to the verification and improvement of the "base plan special technology";

Therefore, most of the conversations that take place here are not just "small talk" to pass the time, but to learn from each other's work and effectively promote each other's work.

Moreover, due to certain innate conditions of the elf race as a whole, as well as some acquired factors determined by the path, most elf spellcasters are destined to be called 'all-rounders', which also makes the communication between them impossible.

It becomes a 'chicken talking to a duck'.

In the midst of such individual busyness, as well as conversations sometimes face to face and sometimes in the distance, time also passed silently little by little;

When the moment determined through calculation finally arrived, the two elves, reminded by Zhinao, stopped what they were doing and began to carry out the follow-up tasks.

~~~~~~~~~

At this moment, in the vast darkness, with the sun that looked about 1.5 times larger as the background, a dark yellow turbid sphere appeared very clearly within the field of view, and in the movement of the object unfolding in the same reference system,

Quickly get closer to the spaceship.

This star is naturally a purgatory star. Its orbit is close to a perfect circle, and it is about 0.75 astronomical units from the sun (the average distance from the parent star to the sun is 1). The diameter of the planet is roughly half of the parent star, 12,804 kilometers. It is estimated.

The mass is around 6.02110 kilograms;

Taken together, it is the second-to-last smallest planet in the parent galaxy. Among the other planets, only the ‘Death Star’ in the third orbit is smaller than it.

[We are about to reach the predetermined target, please complete the integration and integration as soon as possible. 】

The silent reminder from the spaceship's brain made Freya immediately stop the task at hand and asked Agatha in the lab next door,

"Are you ready?"

"Yeah, I can enter your body at any time~"

"Your lines are a bit bad. Forget it, let's merge quickly. You enter the inner perspective, and I stay in the material horizon to control the composite body. Is that okay?"

"No problem, I also want to see the effect of close-up internal observation."

As he spoke, two torrents of cells passed through the metal wall, gathered together in the main cabin, and immediately deeply integrated with each other.

Among the two of them, the more senior Freya's body 'net data' at this time is 4.2 meters tall and weighs 4.7 tons, while the younger Agatha is 3.7 meters tall and weighs just over 4 tons;

And when they merged together, the new body, which only lasted for a moment in complete form, seemed to have a muscular body that was nearly 7 meters tall and weighed about 9 tons.

It disappeared into the material structure where it stood, and merged with the spaceship that was originally a mimic built for them.

Of course, even the total amount of cells produced by the combination of two fifth-level spellcasters is still not enough compared to this cylindrical spacecraft with a length of 700 meters and a cross-sectional diameter of 250 meters.

Therefore, Freya, who was responsible for controlling the external consciousness at this time, only integrated with the most critical parts of the spacecraft, such as the plasma thrusters at the head and tail, the central control brain, the beast king's cage, and the gravitational field.

Happens with adjusters and so on.

At this point, Freya's consciousness has completely taken over the control of the entire spacecraft, either directly or using her brain as a springboard, and is conducting subsequent approaches and orbiting operations based on real-time situation changes.

Under her control, the beast king's cage that provided the driving force for the spacecraft's totem inscription began to squeeze the "inner core" of it with higher efficiency, and allowed the "sleeping" high-level monsters to faintly in their dreams.

frowned;

At the same time, the tail thruster, which was previously shut down because the speed reached the extreme value, also made a course adjustment during the short start-up period, and then entered the standby program, while the other thruster at the front was at this moment

It was started for the first time, and then the spacecraft was gradually decelerated in the vacuum by working in reverse.

After that, Freya waited for a while

When the totem group at the gravity terminal was warmed up and the spacecraft arrived at the most suitable position, she controlled the corresponding parts and used maximum power to create the spell's effect.

There are many physical and magical laws in this world. In fact, they are all in a state of "don't understand why", "but understand the process of occurrence", and "can also use its effects", while the true principle is still in the fog of gravity.

Effect' is one of them;

Therefore, the purpose of this set of spells that are effective through totems is to weaken the star's ability to capture the spacecraft and deepen the influence of the Purgatory Star's gravitational field on the spacecraft.

Therefore, at this moment, the two celestial bodies jointly generated a gravitational field channel to the orbit of the Purgatory Star, allowing the spacecraft to smoothly travel on the best route after entering it, while throwing out a series of communications and detection from large to micro.

Satellite group, one side seems to be 'gliding' to reach the predetermined location easily.

During this process, the Mimic spacecraft, which was originally a long cylinder, gradually changed into a strange, double-spherical space station structure with connecting rods. It also 'turned off' the front thruster, gave up interference with the gravitational field, and relied only on vacuum low pressure.

The resistance environment maintains the speed and height required for itself.

Afterwards, Freya adjusted the operating mode of the new space station on the control side, and then released the fusion state of each area and cell in batches, and transferred the control rights to the intelligent brain terminal step by step until they achieved the goal.

Complete separation only occurs after stable operation.

As a result, the preparations for orbiting and exploration of the Purgatory Star Space Station have been completed, and Freya has also exited the combined form with Agatha, allowing the number of crew members in the station to return to two.

~~~~~~~~

"What should we do next? Should we separate directly, or should we be more conservative and conduct remote exploration first?"

Agatha, who had just 'returned' from the inner horizon, had already formed her own body. At this time, she was controlling the flow of metal on her body to form a gauze garment, while asking Freya who was sitting in front of the brain light curtain.

"To be on the safe side, let's be more conservative. No one is chasing us anyway. Spending some time is better than losing the clone, right?"

"That's okay, let's activate the surface beacon first, right? Let me see how much we have lost."

After sitting on the seat on the other side, Agatha connected her hair braid to her brain, controlled the signal generator in the space station, and connected to the satellite group released earlier when it entered orbit.

Therefore, in order to save the consumption of high-energy cell fluid, those communication equipment that were specially set up as "solar physics satellites" launched electromagnetic signals from all four directions of the Purgatory Star to the surface, trying to penetrate the thick greenhouse atmosphere below to reach the surface.

In the many base preparation construction sites that were initially identified earlier, and in the surrounding areas, the Republic specially left many 'beacons' in the last exploration plan, and reserved high-energy cell fluid reserves at their cores.

, allowing it to enter a dormant state with minimal consumption.

And to this day, although most of them have been in harsh environments and exhausted their drive reserves in various accidents, and therefore were forced to be destroyed without the blessing of totems, there still seems to be a very small number of them.

The lucky ones' survived

So at this time, between two relatively 'safe' areas on the surface of Purgatory, three beacons reacted after receiving signals from the space station;

The totem inscriptions at the core of them lit up at a high density in an instant, and after launching azimuth guidance into the air, they fell into complete silence due to depleting their reserves, and only a moment later they appeared as if they had existed before.

Destroyed like those 'brothers'.

"Only three beacons survive. This loss rate is really high." Agatha muttered after receiving the signal. "It seems that there is no way to save high-energy cell fluid, otherwise this base will not be able to maintain it at all. Poor

Beast King, I have to make you work hard again."

"Okay, let's quickly confirm the signal location and see if the mark is a preparatory construction point. I hope it is. Otherwise, we will have to spend time to find a suitable place."

"Hmm, those places have the highest density of beacons. Judging from the probability, it should be correct. Yes, it was sent from a predetermined point;"

Agatha immediately confirmed after interpreting the number,

"Two of the signal points overlap, and one signal point is relatively farther away. Based on their relative positions, the other recorded points can be deduced. I have deduced it and will pass it on to you now."

"Okay, let me take a look first"

Several of the locations were actually priority choices in the registration process, but the beacons reserved there have lost contact. On the contrary, the other two locations, which were designated as secondary selection points, had previously reported signal feedback.

transmitted;

Moreover, the thick atmosphere of Purgatory Star is very unfriendly for orbital observation, which makes it difficult for them to confirm the true situation of the surface from their current position, so looking at the calculated azimuth coordinate system in front of them at this moment,

Freya rubbed her chin and thought about the future exploration options.

'Should we start exploration directly from the 'survival point', or should we put resources and energy into the more promising side of the filing?'

"Let's start exploring from the optimal point." Freya made a decision after a moment, and continued, "The space station will change orbit and go to the predetermined coordinates to replenish high energy for 25 anti-gravity, anti-corrosion, and strong-wind exploration aircraft.

The cell fluid will be put into the first batch of 3 racks when it reaches the predetermined location."

"Agatha, you are going to do the analysis of the outer atmosphere. I will continue to pay attention to the aircraft's penetration and exploration of the middle and lower atmosphere. The intelligent brain is responsible for controlling the specific execution."

"Understood~"

After agreeing, Agatha's body was immediately split into two. The larger one still stayed in place, maintaining the connection with the brain, while the smaller one slipped into the control room floor and disappeared;

And after a while, after completing these actions, she responded again,

"I'm heading to the lower gas chamber, and I'll have the analysis results soon."

"Understood."

At the same time, the space station also began to execute a series of previous commands under the control of the intelligent brain.

[The engine has been started, the space station is changing orbit, and the exploration aircraft is charging.]

A blue light was emitted from the side ends of the upper and lower spherical structures of the space station, causing its entire body to move.

And after a moment passed, a new response entered the minds of the two elves along the plexus of hair;

[The orbit change is completed, the aircraft is fully charged and can be launched at any time.]

When receiving this message, Freya was about to give corresponding orders, but was interrupted by another message that appeared later;

[Severe thunderstorms were observed in the atmosphere of the target area, and alternative plans are being generated.]

[Option 1, activate the magnetic energy shield, and the expected detection time will be reduced by 33%;]

[Option 2, bypassing the target atmospheric airspace, the expected detection time will be reduced by 22%;]

[Option 3 47%]

[Plan 4 68%]

【Execute?】

"Increase the first batch of exploration aircraft to 5. One aircraft will activate the magnetic energy shield and get closer to detect the intensity and specific causes of the thunderstorm. The other four will activate the anti-corrosion blessing. They will be separated by 8 light minutes from each other and circle the airspace to collect gas samples."

After thinking for less than a breath, Freya gave a new order and continued,

"Two additional supply aircraft are launched to prepare for replenishing cell fluid for the exploratory type."

【Understood, executing.】

From the orbital view, the spherical structure above the space station opened two sealed hatches, and then two disc-rotating aircraft with a diameter of about 13 meters were seen emerging from it, without any observable engine fireworks.

, flying towards the turbid dark yellow color below in a trickling rotation, with vague thunder light shining in the atmosphere;

Among them, an aircraft with blue light visible to the naked eye surrounding it landed directly towards the thunderstorm area;

On the other one, dense totem inscriptions could only be seen on the surface. At this time, it was spinning and flying to a farther area, seemingly preparing to bypass the thunderstorm area below and enter the atmosphere from other places.

"Sister, I have a result here."

While the space station was undergoing various operations, Agatha next to Freya suddenly said,

"It is no different from the data analysis conducted on the parent star. It has indeed captured a very small amount of element 1 and the spillover phenomenon of its isotopes. Their source should be magma water."

"Then it would be nice to have water. It would save us a lot of trouble."

"But it's a little strange. I still can't figure out how there can be water on a planet like this, still in magma. Is it really like we guessed that this big thing down there once had liquid water like the sea?"

"It's possible. We have to wait until we are separated before we can have a similar estimate."

"Well, when will you go down?"

"Waiting a little longer, we must truly determine the composition of the middle and lower atmosphere and the surface environment before we can adjust the body or the inscription function in a targeted manner."

"Well, I hope the situation is the same as the analysis. I don't want to wear heavy protective clothing."
