Chapter 221 The Legend of Dick
"Three years ago, an incident occurred in the Central Galaxy Army Group. This incident made all soldiers feel that there might be more unknown secrets in the empire. Now all of us may not only protect the energy base, but also a terrifying killing factory." Captain Herbert began to slowly say to everyone.
When everyone heard that the captain was about to start telling clue stories, they surrounded him and stopped talking, listening quietly to his narrative.
Captain Herbert paused, glanced at everyone, and continued: "There is a soldier named Dick, who is affiliated with the 80th Fleet Maintenance Brigade, which is affiliated with the Fifth Army of the Central Galaxy Group. He is responsible for flying a space shuttle to inspect the light curtain wall transmitter of the space fortress, which is the hexagonal system you see.
On this day, Dick set out normally to carry out maintenance work. Each maintenance personnel were responsible for driving a space shuttle alone and using the shuttle's mechanical arm to carry out maintenance work. This shuttle is not armed, so Dick only has a thermal light wave pistol he wears with him for protection.
On that day, everything was working properly in the light curtain wall of the space fortress. After Dick inspected the 10 million kilometers of repair sections, he was ready to return to the base.
At this time, another shuttle suddenly emerged from the interior of the light curtain wall, but the shuttle was not similar to the model number of Dick and the maintenance workers, but a strange shuttle without any number.
At this moment, Dick felt very strange, so he immediately started calling the shuttle: "Which unit is your shuttle on the opposite side? Please answer immediately."
But the strange shuttle did not respond at all. No matter how Dick called, he did not get the corresponding information.
Seeing this situation, Dick felt that this was an alien spacecraft and should provide feedback to the headquarters and send out early warning signals.
Just as Dick was about to send a signal, a blue light flashed suddenly, and then Dick himself lost his mind, as if he was being controlled, and drove his shuttle toward the strange shuttle opposite.
Soon, the two shuttles came into contact with each other, and the controlled Dick immediately began to quickly transmit relevant data in the system to the strange shuttle opposite, including the deployment information of the Horsehead Nebula, combatant information and other related military information, which were completely copied by the strange shuttle.
After the copy was finished, Dick was still controlled by his mind. He drove the shuttle and followed the strange spacecraft to leave the original cruise route and flew towards the depths of the horse-head nebula.
The flight performance of the Holy Empire shuttle is very powerful and can carry the passengers to explore in various complex environments in the universe. The two spacecraft traveled through the dark nebula one after another, flying very quickly. I don’t know how much time they have passed, and they have arrived in a three-star system.”
"Are the three star systems red, yellow and blue?" Hearing this, Paul Zhang could no longer hold it in and asked loudly.
At this time, everyone had a lot of questions to ask, but Zhang Xingxing stopped everyone's questions. She wanted Captain Herbert to finish the complete story before analyzing and discussing it.
"This officer is right. It is indeed a galaxy composed of three red, yellow and blue stars. Among the three stars, there are twenty-seven planets arranged in a straight line in the shape of a windmill." Captain Herbert affirmed Zhang Paul's statement.
"What did you say? Twenty-seven planets, I heard it right? Aren't it nine planets?" This time, even the steady old Du couldn't help but ask questions.
"There are twenty-seven planets, not nine planets. In the later records, I saw it with my own eyes." Captain Theodore stood up and added.
"Is there a different three-star system?" Zhang Paul asked in surprise.
"I think the probability of the three star systems repeating is unlikely. What is more likely is that the emperor is still building more monster bases. This artificial planetary base initially had nine planets, and tens of thousands of years later, the number of planets has gradually increased to twenty-seven." My analysis was unanimously recognized by everyone present and began to discuss it fiercely.
"Don't make noise, let Captain Herbert finish the story." Zhang Xingxing once again controlled the order of the scene.
After listening to the orders of Commander Zhang Xingxing, the scene became quiet. At this time, Captain Herbert began to tell again: "Dick was always under control. The shuttle quickly approached one of the planets. From the appearance, the surface of this planet was very smooth, like a pure round steel planet made of fine iron. A few minutes later, the shuttle began to slowly approach the planet.
The surface of the star looked extremely smooth, but the controlled Dick still drove the space shuttle toward the planet. As the shuttle gradually approached the star's surface, a docking platform suddenly rose from the smooth planet's surface.
Two tentacles extending from this docking platform firmly grasp the bottom of the space shuttle and securely fix the shuttle on the planet's surface.
A dark hole slowly opened next to the platform, and a group of connecting pipes began to be associated and connected with the shuttle.
A few minutes later, the pipes were connected, and Dick stood up and slowly walked into the inside of the artificial planet."
When I heard this, I, Zhang Xingxing and others, seemed very excited because we clearly remember that the man in black entered the internal space of the artificial planet, and it was exactly the area we had not yet explored. I didn't expect that it would be possible to learn the secrets inside from Captain Herbert so easily.
"Dick was controlled by a mysterious force and continued to move forward. After passing a long corridor, a golden steel gate appeared in front of him, but at least for now, no monsters have appeared." Captain Herbert continued.
"Captain, how did you know that there must be monsters here?" Zhang Paul continued to start his bad habit of interrupting his speech.
Captain Herbert gave Paul a blank look and said, "At this moment, the golden steel door in front of Dick suddenly opened, and an extremely ugly creature appeared in front of Dick. The creature had an extremely huge nostril, and kept spraying out extremely low temperature gas. Above its nostrils were a pair of yellow triangular eyes, a broken mouth dripping constantly, and from time to time, sticking out its tongue to lower its head to lick the saliva that fell on the ground.
On both sides of its body, there were a pair of seriously damaged arms, each with six slender and sharp fingers, but surprisingly, his legs did not seem to exist. I don’t know if it was born like this or was interrupted later, and his whole body was lying on the ground and unable to move.
But Dick, whose mind was controlled, seemed not afraid of the ugly monster in front of him, but walked towards the monster with big strides. At this time, countless clawed crawlers suddenly surged out from under the monster's feet, covering all the road around Dick, leaving only space for him to stand on his feet.
Every time Dick took a step forward, these crawler monsters took a step back and made way for the space to move forward, but now the entire room is full of such terrifying crawlers.
After a while, Dick came to the paralyzed giant beast. The giant beast stretched out a sharp claw and touched Dick's face seriously. At this time, you could clearly see that the giant beast was actually carrying a silver ring on its extended finger.
Suddenly, the giant beast suddenly put its entire face close to Dick and began to observe carefully. In that huge yellow eyeball, I seemed to have seen an image of the universe's starry sky."
Speaking of this, Captain Herbert seemed to have thought about something and kept thinking.
"What's next, continue talking, don't keep it in a silence." Daum, who was impatient, urged anxiously.
"There is no further going on. The video has not continued to have more image information. Three days later, due to Dick's disappearance, our maintenance brigade sent a search fleet and found Dick's shuttle in the outer area of the light curtain wall. However, Dick was not inside. In his driving seat, his helmet and armor were neatly stacked." Captain Herbert explained to Dom.
"You say it the same as acting in a movie. Did you see it yourself or listen to other people's legends?" Paul Zhang began to question Captain Herbert.
"Captain Theodore and I were the positive and negative brigade commanders of the 80th Fleet Repair Brigade. When the shuttle was discovered, the soldiers of the maintenance brigade pulled him back to the base flagship as soon as possible. Captain Theodore and I retreated most of the officers, leaving only the core officers of the maintenance brigade. Everyone watched the shuttle detection system and the images taken by the Dick Sergeant helmet three times. I remember every detail there clearly. I never expected that there was such a terrifying base inside the Horse Head Nebula." Captain Herbert answered Zhang Paul's question.
After Captain Herbert answered Zhang Paul's words, everyone present fell into silence again.
"Cangyue, I think those soft creatures that the captain said are giant clawed earthworms." After a while, Zhang Xingxing turned to me and said.
"It's probably the kind of monster. The two captains, since there are video materials, can they be watched for us? Maybe I can find some clues about the three-star system?" I asked Captain Herbert.
After hearing my request, Captain Herbert sighed deeply, and it was impossible to get the video recording materials like this.
"Less than five hours later, the elders of the Holy Wings suddenly came to our maintenance brigade with warships and teams. The one who accompanied them was Marshal Wardle, the highest commander of the Central Galaxy Army Group. They took away the shuttle and all the remaining items without saying a word. However, at this time, rumors about the existence of a monster base within the Horse Head Nebula spread wildly, and the arrival of the Holy Wings made everyone feel that the empire has a close relationship with this monster base." Captain Herbert's explanation to me was exactly the same as my guess.
"That's what a pity," I said to Herbert with regret.
"The captain told us that since then, the Army Group Command disbanded the 80th Fleet and transferred the two captains from their original positions. The officers who had watched the video were also dispersed and divided into different troops. In the past two years, these witnesses of that year have suddenly begun to disappear gradually, which made the two captains worry, so they found an opportunity to contact me. At that time, I happened to be on the Jumping Planet." Prince Taoris told the story behind for Captain Herbert.
"It's a pity that after listening to this story, we can only prove that the three stars are real, but we still don't know its specific location now." Zhang Xingxing said regretfully after hearing the prince's words.
