When humans first discovered extraterrestrial civilization, it was at least fifty light-years away from the Earth. At that time, the Earth was just a rudimentary civilization that had just stepped out of the surface civilization.
Being able to reach fifty light years away and discover the existence of extraterrestrial civilization there is already a miracle.
At that time, human beings held the illusion of infinity and came into contact with that alien race.
It was a very short, goblin-like alien race, only seventy centimeters tall, and the weapons in their hands were similar to those of humans on the surface.
There were kinetic weapons and cold weapons, but the ones they wore felt like they were from the indigenous tribes of the Earth-Star Alliance era.
The fangs and sharp teeth look a bit ferocious, but the people of the Earth Planet still do not judge people by their appearance, and they still communicate very seriously with these earth-gray-skinned alien races.
It's just that the entire scientific expedition team that went out that time was not able to come back. It was a scientific expedition team of hundreds of people and just disappeared on the planet.
Although humans did not have an unprotected fleet, the fleet commander at the time decided not to send anyone to follow them, lest they be regarded as hostile by the indigenous residents.
Even the top leader of the scientific expedition team greatly praised it. The commander of the Absolute Fleet was simply a genius.
However, after the scientific expedition team sent out to investigate the planet lost contact, the entire expedition fleet was not in a hurry, and actually waited step by step. It was not until a whole earth, star and moon had passed that the expedition fleet was sent out again.
There are two to three hundred people. The people in the fleet this time are somewhat smarter.
Quite a bit.
There was a escort team, but just two days later, the expedition team still disappeared and could never be contacted again.
But everyone in the fleet at that time seemed to have a mental problem. The second time something went wrong, they actually sent out an expedition team to search.
Trouble arose again. Although the third fleet sent many more people, reaching thousands, and one-third of the personnel were combat personnel, and more than one-third were diplomats. Only a small proportion are scientific researchers.
It seemed that a lot of attention was paid to it, but the problem was that after entering the planet, this team did not disappear quietly immediately like the two previous scientific expedition teams.
Instead, a distress signal was sent out a day later, but because the electromagnetic interference on that planet was very strong, it was not able to send a clear enough message.
But the meaning is clear enough, that is, hurry up and save people.
However, the people in the fleet actually hesitated and did not send anyone immediately because they were still worried about being misunderstood.
At this time, someone finally couldn't stand it anymore. He was the deputy commander of the entire exploration fleet. Seeing that there seemed to be something wrong with the commander's mind, he simply stopped talking to him, lest he would end up talking too much nonsense. He also became as stupid as an idiot.
The other members of the fleet immediately joined forces and placed the commander and the captain of the scientific expedition team under house arrest. This was considered a big change.
But it didn't stir up much trouble, because the entire fleet had had enough of the stupid orders of these two bastards who dominated the fleet. If this continued, they would probably all
Their lives were lost because of the stupid orders of these two idiots, and the entire human fleet might even be annihilated because of their stupidity.
Therefore, I am very supportive of the deputy commander's decision, with one hundred and twenty votes in favor.
The deputy commander who had obtained the power to command the fleet lived up to expectations and made the most correct decision, which was to send half of the human fleet to the planet to directly solve the problem.
Of course, he didn't make any stupid decision and let half of the human fleet arrive on the planet.
After all, doing that is no different from a stupid commander, and it will even ruin the human scientific research and exploration fleet faster.
For this first exploration of cosmic civilization, mankind is actually very well prepared.
A fleet numbering 300,000 was very large among humans at that time.
One-third of them are combat ships of various types
Although the warship cannot be said to be the most advanced warship mastered by mankind at that time, it is almost the same, and it is also the most technologically mature and stable.
After all, for space exploration, no matter how advanced your technology is, if it cannot survive in various harsh space environments, it will lose its meaning and value.
And one-third are various supply ships. These can be said to have moved all the factories on the planet that are considered to be needed in the universe. They can be regarded as mobile support bases.
It is enough for the entire fleet to become an independent city for survival and navigation in the universe.
Only less than one-third of the remaining ships
The ships are used for scientific research, and the types are very complete. However, those scientific research ships are not completely without combat capabilities. They still have a lot of self-defense firepower. Although they are incomparable with specialized combat ships, in the universe , can still cope with many problems.
…
After a day-long operational meeting, the deputy commander dispatched fifty reconnaissance ships, equipped with thirty troop transport ships, and landed on the planet.
Those who landed on the planet were all elite scouts, scattered in almost all areas of the planet.
The purpose is to find out the specific situation of that planet.
Although the natural environment on that planet is very similar to that of the Earth, and even the creatures on that planet are oxygen-loving creatures, they can all breathe there without even needing to carry a breathing mask.
But for safety reasons, all landing soldiers wore respiratory masks and protective equipment to reduce contact with the planet.
In this way, with the cooperation of fifty reconnaissance ships and nearly 100,000 scouts, it took three months to completely understand the situation there.
After a large amount of information and captured indigenous creatures were sent back to the fleet for scientific researchers to study, a very detailed report was presented to the deputy commander's case.
The corresponding situation was quickly communicated to the entire fleet.
It turns out that although this planet has oxygen that humans can breathe, the air is filled with an undetectable and extremely rare toxic gas. These gases are released by a common local plant.
For living on this planet all year round
It is not fatal to the living creatures, and there is no toxicity at all.
But for newly arrived humans, it is impossible to adapt, especially since this toxin is not fatal to any living creature, even humans.
But it has a strong hallucinogenic effect and is simply impossible to guard against.
So much so that almost everyone who landed on that repair planet was invaded by toxic substances and almost lost the ability to resist. Even if there were some fish that slipped through the net, they were unable to change anything and became prisoners of others.
Even though the third wave of people who landed behind were prepared, they were unable to defend themselves at all and still managed to escape. However, after all, there were enough of them and they still had time to send out a little distress signal.
However, because the electromagnetic environment on this planet is too chaotic, a strange rock with an extremely strong magnetic field interferes with the electromagnetic environment of this planet, making their distress signal unable to fully express their situation at that time. .
What's more important is that the rocks here are as common as the most common rocks on Earth. They are almost everywhere, and it is difficult not to be affected by them.
Thanks to the native relationship, the communication equipment manufactured by those goblin-like creatures on this planet will not be affected at all. However, the communication distance will be shorter than that of human communication devices on the planet. .
As for some species on that planet, they do not pose any obvious threat to humans. After all, it is just like the wild world on Earth. With a gun, are you still afraid of evil wolves?
Door! ?
However, perhaps because they are just civilizations living on the surface, these goblin-like creatures are extremely ferocious and do not take human beings seriously at all.
Judging from the known information, almost none of the humans captured by them survived.
Even
What makes humans angry is that those goblins are actually cannibals. Although they are not the same species as humans, from a certain point of view, it doesn't matter whether they kill humans or eat them.
But from the perspective of humans themselves, this is something that is absolutely intolerable. Cannibalism is strictly prohibited in human genes, and no one can offend it.
Any creature that dares to eat humans will suffer human revenge. No matter whether humans leave the Earth Star or not, even in the Earth Star period, they will kill all the beasts that dare to eat humans.
…
This is a planet that is far from overly huge. It is a quarter smaller than the Earth Star, but the density of life on it is even more terrifying than the Earth Star. , it can be said that every place is like a tropical rain forest on earth. You may discover new species just by taking a few steps.
But those alien creatures like goblins did not live on the surface. Instead, they established a huge country underground, like a group of ants, living in a huge underground space.
Intricate tunnels connect strange underground cities.
Getting this news brought some trouble to the people exploring the fleet, because if they went underground to fight, their advantage would disappear.
After all, he has a powerful fleet
If humans enter an unfamiliar environment and cannot take advantage of air firepower, the war may become very difficult.
However, although such a problem makes the fleet seem helpless, the deputy commander is indeed a decisive person.
Directly order the fleet to bomb the underground world of goblin-like creatures on that planet, reducing ground combat.
A full month of intense firepower attacks almost blew up half of the planet. The entire planet seemed to have experienced a horrific earthquake. There were collapses and subsidences everywhere. The living environment had become very bad, although it was still far away. There's no such thing as destruction.
And one month is enough time for those alien creatures like goblins to realize the gap between themselves and humans. Although they are similar to humans in the Earth-Star era, they can be regarded as the rulers of this planet.
But compared with the humans who have left the earth and entered the universe, they are still far behind. Once you encounter humans who are determined and don't care at all, it is simply a dream to have any power to fight back.
In the second month, when the deputy commander of the fleet planned to completely blow up the planet, this goblin-like alien indigenous creature sent a signal to surrender.
This was a surprise to the entire human fleet. After all, they were already prepared to destroy the entire planet.
