The gunfire rang out, and Ye Han stood up suddenly. The magnetic shoes nailed his feet firmly to the ground. However, there was no gravity. Even if his feet were fixed on the ground, it was difficult to maintain true balance. His body was broken due to excessive exertion.
It shook a few times before it stabilized.
The beating muzzle and shooting flames can be seen in several small windows on the main screen. Every flicker of the gun flames makes the screen completely white, making it impossible to see the target clearly.
Those windows where gunfire cannot be seen are mechanical spiders and are not near the A5 cabin.
Ye Han wanted to ask Luo Qi what happened, but he knew better that it was best not to interfere with the command and operations at the front at this juncture.
The sound of gunfire only lasted two or three seconds, and Luo Qi's roar came from the communication: "Stop shooting, stop shooting——"
The gun flames in several small windows dissipated, leaving only the gun barrel pointed at the A5 cabin. The pictures on those screens showed a faint gray color, but they quickly dissipated.
Ye Han finally saw the situation ahead clearly. Several soldiers were still surrounding the cabin door. Not only was the black shadow just now gone, but the mechanical spider that stepped into the A5 cabin was also gone, leaving only a slender mechanical leg hanging.
In mid-air, slowly drifting to one side.
"Did you hit it?" Luo Qi's voice came again.
"have no idea."
"Maybe not."
"It seems to have been hit."
The answers of the several soldiers were completely different, and Luo Qi couldn't help but feel a pain in his balls. Then his eyes narrowed and he saw a few inconspicuous little black dots slowly drifting away near the mechanical legs.
Luo Qi walked over in a few steps, stretched out his finger, and one of the black dots hit his fingertip and flicked away.
He stretched out his fingers and pinched the black dot. He brought it closer to his eyes and took a closer look. He immediately raised his head and said, "It's blood. Who saw where it escaped?"
"Inside!" A soldier pointed to the cabin without hesitation.
"Are you sure?" Luo Qi gripped the rifle again.
"Sure." The soldier said, thinking for a moment and then explained, "I didn't see where it was, but I saw him bumping the shelf."
Luo Qi looked in the direction pointed by the soldier. There was indeed a shelf with a twisted beam inside. Looking at the twisted arc of the beam, it did look like something had knocked it out.
At first glance, it seems that the unknown target is very powerful and can knock a hole out of the steel frame with just a single collision, but in fact this is not the case at all.
This happens not because the target is too strong, but because the steel frame is too fragile, and the reason is quite complicated.
To put it simply, firstly, there is no gravity in space. Regardless of whether the shelf or the robotic arm is made too strong, it only needs to be able to achieve the purpose of fixing the items.
Second, given the level of human manufacturing, the power of the propeller is only so high. The heavier the battleship, the lower the acceleration of the battleship. Therefore, when designing battleships, every effort is made to reduce weight.
No one dared to touch the armor, keel and various stress-bearing structures, so the designers took their ideas in other directions and made the steel frame lighter and thinner, which could reduce a lot of mass.
If the steel frame of the battleship was placed on the earth, and various spare parts were placed on it, the weight of the parts alone would cause the frame to twist and deform, so the collision with the target would not prove anything.
But the twisted steel frame left some clues for Luo Qi. He visually inspected the size of the twisted part and immediately made a rough judgment on the size of the target: "Bridge, the target size should not be large, but the speed is very fast. We have lost the target.
, can you see it?"
Ye Han breathed a sigh of relief and sat back in the chair: "We can't see it either, so where can we go?"
"Maybe in the right corner." He Lu said.
The target just broke into the detection range. Although it was only for a moment, it was enough to determine the target's general location.
"Did you hear that?" Ye Han asked.
"Got it!" Luo Qi retracted the line and pointed to the right side of the A5 cabin, "Put the spider in the corner over there!"
Several mechanical spiders immediately ran into the hatch, some going straight and bravely, others walking diagonally and circuitously, approaching corners from several different directions.
In the passage outside the hatch, several warriors controlling the spiders were concentrating, fearing that they might miss something.
Ye Han in the bridge also had the same expression, his eyes constantly moving on the screen, looking for the target's shadow everywhere.
The spider crawled into the A5 cabin, and the rows of rack legs looked like a forest. They passed through the rack forest from all directions, and the corners hidden deep in the cabin were finally revealed in front of the camera.
However, there was no sign of the target in the corner, and Luo Qi's voice immediately came over the radio: "Expand the search range, put in a few more spiders, and make sure there are no blind spots!"
The soldiers did as they were told and put in a few more spiders. After they dispersed, they started a blanket search in the A5 cabin.
Seven or eight spiders quickly walked through the A5 cabin, and strictly followed Luo Qi's instructions, leaving no blind spots. However, they could not find the target until the end. They only found an inconspicuous hole in a deep corner of the cabin.
After receiving the report, Luo Qi felt completely unwell and quickly said: "The first group will follow me in, and the second group will stay on guard!"
Seven or eight soldiers filed in and quickly took control of the A5 cabin. Luo Qi waved his arms, pushed aside the parts that were blocking the way, walked all the way to the corner of the cabin, and finally saw the hole in the bulkhead with his own eyes.
Luo Qi went over to take a look, and immediately said on the radio: "The bridge, the target should have entered through this hole!"
Ye Han said: "I can't see clearly here. Why do I feel that this hole seems to have been melted out by high temperature?
Luo Qi said: "It looks similar, but I think it's more like it was burned with strong acid." As he said that, he grabbed a floating part and poked the edge of the hole.
The edge of the hole has not changed, and there are no abnormalities in the parts.
Luo Qi then approached the hole and took a look: "Bridge, the target should be running next door. Can you see what's going on next door?"
He Lu said: "It can't be seen. In the whole area A, there is only A5 cabin and a detector that can be used."
Luo Qi pondered for a moment: "Commander, I suggest that area A be closed immediately and search cabin by cabin until the target is found!"
Ye Han said: "Okay, where is the road? Can the gate be closed?"
He Ludao: "It's not possible to close area A, but the gate in area B is fine. We can seal the two areas together."
"Then seal Area A and Area B together." Ye Han said, "Luo Qi, your task is not just to find the target. This thing came from something strange. You also have to find a way to figure out what it is."
Got in."
"Don't worry, I understand!"
"Okay, let's take action!" Ye Han said.
He Lu immediately said: "Close area B, gates B4 to B9 are closed...the gates are locked, area B is closed!"
After hearing this, Luo Qi immediately turned around and shouted: "Squad leader, you lead the first squad to stay and follow my orders to release the spiders. The others follow me!"
