The aircraft flies at a height of less than 50 meters from the ground, and its speed is getting faster and faster. At this moment, what Li Ruobai had been worried about happened. It's raining.
"Should we stop and add a cover?"
"It's not necessary." Chu Jungui looked at the sky and then speeded up. The high-speed flying aircraft brought about huge wind pressure, blowing all the rainwater above the heads of the three people back.
At this moment, Kaitian suddenly issued an alarm: "Federal base found ahead!"
In an instant, buildings on the plain in the distance appeared in Chu Jungui's field of vision.
The base is quite large, larger than the original Shadow of Doomsday, and has obviously been established for some time. The area around the base was basically bulldozed, with signs of large-scale terrain leveling, and several sub-forts were built. Based on the Federation's habit of building bases, Chu Jungui visually estimated that at least 10,000 people were stationed in this base.
It is impossible to attack such a large base. Chu Jungui silently noted its location and was about to fly away from the side when a huge transport ship flew out of the clouds in the sky.
Chu Jungui's eyes lit up, the three engines were fully powered, and the aircraft was like a flying boulder, directly hitting the transport ship!
The transport ship had just rushed out of the storm clouds, and it was still covered with electric fire. It was difficult to stabilize its posture, but Chu Jungui's aircraft had already flown above. The powerful jets from the three attitude engines blew hard on the back of the transport ship, instantly destroying its balance. The transport ship tilted towards the ground and slammed to the ground. The hull broke into three pieces. The cargo inside was spilled all over the floor, and many cargo boxes were scattered. In the environment of Planet 4, these cargoes have been destroyed.
There was a commotion in the base. By the time a large number of tanks rushed out of the base, Chu Jungui had already flown far away.
The aircraft flew all the way, getting faster and faster, and finally stabilized at a speed of 800 kilometers per hour, flying over mountains, rivers and rivers.
There were several signs of danger along the way, with unknown creatures approaching at high speeds, but most of them were discovered by Kaitian in advance and evaded them. The speed of the aircraft itself is also fast enough, so fast that it exceeds the physiological limits of most living things. Except for those mysterious creatures in the storm clouds, it is impossible for normal surface creatures to catch up.
A few hours later, a sea appeared in the three people's field of vision.
Chu Jungui slowed down and the aircraft slowly hovered at the edge of the sea. The sea is endless, the water is a strange yellow-green color, and the waves are slightly surging. Chu Jungui stared at the sea and found that he could only see about one meter of water.
"Open the sky."
Kaitian's face rose into the air, looking toward the sea. After looking at it for a while, he said, "I can only see through 3 meters."
Chu Jungui frowned and asked, "Can you feel the danger?"
"Can't feel anything."
Chu Jungui exchanged glances with the girl and Li Ruobai, and the aircraft turned around and flew along the coastline. This would undoubtedly make a big circle, but Chu Jungui didn't want to fly to the sea, and neither did the girl or Li Ruobai.
The aircraft then began a long flight around the sea. Fortunately, the surface of Planet 4 has a higher proportion of land. After 20 hours of flight, the orbit around the sea was finally successful. According to Chu Jungui's memory, it was less than 2,000 kilometers away from the base.
In this way, after more than a full day of flight, the aircraft successfully circled half of the planet and returned to the base. The moment she saw Base No. 2, Li Xinyi cheered and shouted: "Go home!"
The aircraft landed in the base, and Chu Jungui also let out a sigh of relief, feeling exhausted. He sat for a while before leaving his seat and jumping out of the aircraft.
Li Ruobai also stepped off the aircraft carrying the box containing Kaitian, his legs and feet shaking slightly. Kaitian has automatically recorded the terrain data along the way. As long as it is transferred to the main brain of the base, a more detailed planet map can be obtained.
After a short rest, the three gathered in the command room to study the map data recorded by Kaitian. Kaitian is like a multi-functional biometric scanner, which can convert the places it scans into digital data and store them. Its memory capacity is naturally limited, but as long as it eats enough and is big enough, its memory capacity is theoretically unlimited.
On the planet map, the areas the three of them flew through were marked with dense markings. As long as there are places that have never seen landforms or biological species, Kaitian has set a mark. There are dozens of eye-catching red icons among them, which are places where Kaitian feels threatened. Most of the marked spots look unremarkable, and it's unclear where the dangers come from. But something that can make even Kaitian feel dangerous must have a secret.
The three of them examined the marks one by one and discussed for several hours before finally sorting out what they had gained along the way. Looking at the final result, Li Ruobai said: "Have we finished exploring the road? No?"
"Definitely not." Li Xinyi said while processing the data: "We encountered many high-speed approaching creatures on the way. Although their speed is not as fast as our aircraft, their speed is more than 300 kilometers per hour. Let's not forget those creatures. Living missiles. The biological evolution of this planet is very rapid. Maybe if we take this route again, we will encounter war beasts that can catch up with us. Also, don’t forget, there is something in that sea.”
Li Ruobai exhaled and said, "I think so too."
The girl adjusted the model and then said: "This planet is very weird, even a little weird. Many species here are completely inconsistent with the laws of biological evolution. Life like Kaitian should not appear at all. Do you still remember how we found Kaitian?" From heaven? In a sense, Kaitian can be said to be artificial life."
"Is there a higher level of intelligent race that created Kaitian?" Li Ruobai asked.
The girl nodded, "From the current signs, it is so. But the question is, where is this race? Why don't they stay?"
"That's right. If there really is such a race, they can rule the entire galaxy and have nothing to do with us."
After thinking for a moment, Li Ruobai looked at Chu Jungui and asked, "What do you think?"
Chu Jun returned to study the various icons on the map carefully. When Li Ruobai asked, he said without raising his head: "A new intelligent race? It's too far away from us. We need to build a new warship now."
Li Ruobai shrugged and said, "Well, this is indeed more important. But I think we need to re-examine this planet. Its value may be far greater than what we see."
"I understand, let's build the starship first."
"Of course we have to build a starship, but..." Li Ruobai didn't continue. It was useless anyway.
Chu Jungui finally looked away from the map and said, "It's not that difficult to defeat the federal fleet, but it's probably very, very difficult to conquer this planet."
