Crimson Cross Observatory

"Leaving the vortex and jumping..., five... four... three... two...return to normal advance. 』The soft but emotionless female voice simply and clearly recounted the various actions of Suan Ni XV. Every crew member on the bridge was busy with their duties skillfully. Captain Bao Guifu sat in the exclusive seat in the center Looking at the huge viewing window with thick eyebrows frowned, thinking about how to proceed with their next mission.

"Issuing a yellow alert. This place is beyond the territory of the Cross Star Federation. All crew members must put on 12 points of energy." Confessing in a low voice, Captain Bao Guifu instructed the crew responsible for reconnaissance and scanning to release a "small satellite" to monitor the surrounding area. I believe that the fact that they are connected to the Povals has been known throughout the universe. If someone intends to ambush, this will be the best place. They are responsible for escorting Duke Lorien to negotiate here. If this young man If the Duke makes any mistake, the whole ship can only be buried with him.

"Where... is this place?" Looking at the "desolate" scene, the navigator couldn't help muttering in a low voice, those Povars are really boring, where can't they negotiate?Why do you have to get some "Crimson Cross Observation Station", just to find this space station that has been abandoned for hundreds of years, the science officers of the Cross Star Alliance almost overturned the entire library, and finally found this long-forgotten space station The ashes-level space station, from the first colony to here, has to go through six vortex jumps. If it weren't for his strong ability, he could have withstood six consecutive jumps. If a link goes wrong, the entire battleship will not know where it will be thrown.

"Here... is called the solar system. Due to the spread of the universe, the original corresponding position has been changed, but it can still be deduced from it to return to its former appearance..." belongs to the science of Suan Ni XV The officer pressed the button very carefully on the dashboard, followed by the projection of the so-called "solar system" in front of the huge viewing window. Nine planets surround a yellow dwarf star. The arrangement is actually somewhat different from what they see now. Those planets have also changed a lot, and the yellow dwarf star among them has become a red giant star with a lower temperature. From this, it can be deduced that if there are living things in this solar system, they must be extinct because of the changes in the temperature and brightness of the star in the middle.

"Okay! Teacher Miya, we know what the original solar system looked like. This can't explain why we came here." Turning around halfway, the navigator rolled his eyes angrily. If it wasn't for this mission, He really didn't want to cooperate with these scientific officers. They would never understand the current situation, and they only knew how to blindly impart knowledge that was completely useless.

"Then do you know what is the third terrestrial planet?" Completely unconcerned, Mia's scientific officer continued to explain excitedly, his slender fingers moved quickly on the dashboard, and the projected image began Zoom in, zoom in, and finally focus on a beautiful aqua blue planet.

"Tian Star?" The navigator raised his eyebrows suspiciously. In fact, Tian Star does not look like this. It is more like a large amount of water vapor being condensed by gravity, not like this water-blue planet. So... strong?

"It's called the Earth, the birthplace of human beings." Leaning on the chair, Captain Bao Guifu replied in a deep voice, and gave the navigator a sharp look. He knew that these excellent navigators relied on their innate intuition. Flying instead of studying hard and earnestly.But he can't blame his navigator. De'an is a mixed race of humans and Vallosaurians. Rather than saying that he is interested in human history, it is better to say that his aggressive appearance fully shows the strength and strength of the Vallosaurus. De'an grew up as a Vara star, and he has only a half-knowledge of all kinds of human beings.

"Yes, the earth, the home planet and birthplace of human beings. It is precisely because of this that the Povars chose to negotiate at the Crimson Cross Observation Station. They also want to know more about us." Looking at that with fascination A projected water-blue planet, Mia reasonably guessed what the Povars thought.

"That's... the home planet of human beings? My God..., I don't believe that any kind of creature can live on that planet..." Without seriously looking at the projected planetary image, the navigator directly faced What he saw was the incomparably real "Earth" in front of his eyes, a brownish-yellow dead planet covered with black and gray. After scanning it deliberately, the atmosphere of that ugly planet contained a very high concentration of toxic substances, let alone Human beings, even if they are as strong as the people of Vara, may not be able to support them.

"If you want to know what wrong and stupid things humans have done, you should really go back to the First Academy of Sciences and study it..."

"Now is not the time to discuss the earth. How much do you know about the 'Crimson Cross Observatory'?"

Stopping Mia's science officer from continuing to talk, Captain Bao Guifu rubbed his temples. He was thinking about whether he should enter the old space station rashly. Maybe he should discuss with the representatives of the Povals galaxy, and they should find another location Negotiations and negotiations may be safer.

"I don't have much information. I only know that the Crimson Cross Observation Station was built in the early days of the Cross Star Federation, deliberately returning to the solar system. The original purpose was to reorganize the earth, hoping to restore its original appearance. But obviously, the whole plan failed..."

"Tsk... This planet is completely dead, right? Not only this planet, but even the star in the middle is dying, but its lifespan... It seems that it shouldn't be so short. Could it be another stupidity of human beings? masterpiece?"

Hearing De'an's unceremonious criticism of human beings, Captain Bao Guifu coughed heavily to remind him that [-]% of the crew members in Suan Ni's fifteenth century have human blood, including De'an himself, so such remarks should be moderate. The evolution of human beings is a common bet in the Cross Star Alliance that they will become better and better and catch up with other races.

"The Crimson Cross Observation Station is now more historically significant than its actual function. As far as I know, the Cross Star Federation has not used this space station since the reconstruction plan failed." Nodding, Mia Science Officer To provide information responsibly, her duty is to assist the captain in making judgments.

"Scan the space station to see if it can be used? Send another team of small boat escorts to ensure that this area is under our control, ...communication officer, start contacting the representative of the Powals galaxy, saying that we have arrived."

Skillfully manipulating the speedboat, Nanda made the reactor operate to the extreme, and escaped from the fourth satellite at an impossible speed, heading for their "home", the South Bow.Akasha has always disliked bringing her warships close to the first colony, so she always hides her behind a group of meteorites or some large satellites, and waits until they get the cargo, and then uses the South Bow for long-distance delivery.

"Sweet home, welcome to the Southern Bow." With a triumphant tone, Akasha crossed her arms around her chest and put her arms on her hips, proudly looking at her battleship, a Southern Bow that did not lose to the Cross Star United Fleet. Bow, this precious ship was left to her by her father, because of the South Bow, she can run across the stars and become one of the best smugglers.

"South Bow..." His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. Lin Sen looked out the window at the battleship hidden among the stones. The silver-gray hull glowed coldly in the darkness. He could fully understand Aka. Where did Sha get her self-confidence? If anyone owns a battleship like the Nanbow, what places in the entire universe can't reach?

"Little devil!...I don't have time to take care of your affairs right now. When we deliver the goods to the Crimson Cross Observation Station, we will leave you behind. As for how you want to leave... I, please, thank you!" Patting Lin Sen on the shoulder, this is Akasha's greatest kindness.She doesn't really mind having an extra crew member. Lin Sen doesn't look annoying, but after knowing that he has a processed Dorina crystal mine on him, Akasha doesn't want to cause trouble at all, and it's the best way to leave this brat behind. Reasonable planning, as for why she didn't shoot people out of the boat at this time, it was purely because she was in a good mood today.

"It's okay! Thank you---." Unexpectedly, Akasha was willing to let him take a journey unconditionally. Lin Sen thanked him repeatedly excitedly. He imagined that the Crimson Cross Observatory must be a place where many warships and small boats docked. He should be able to find another good-hearted person to give him a ride with that Dorinaite.

Unexpectedly, Lin Sen would thank her. Akasha and Nanda exchanged glances, hesitating whether to tell him that the Crimson Cross Observatory is an abandoned space station. If Lin Sen is left alone there, Lin Sen should have a chance of survival. up.

"Ready to enter the South Bow." Without giving Akasha a chance to explain, Nanda said calmly, and the boat flew straight towards the South Bow.

"Oh-oh-oh-oh, a new type of communication translator? How can the Swinsky family still have a way to update the language? I thought there was no language in the entire universe that they couldn't translate." A man with a hedgehog The young man with short hair whistled and pulled the goods in the boat into the special cargo hold of the South Bow. This is the cargo of the Swinsky family and cannot be placed casually like other cargo.

"This is the mechanic of the South Bow, just call him Xiaowai, as big as the reactor of the South Bow, as small as the electronic organs on your body, this guy can repair it." A young man named Xiaowai, Akasha deliberately messed up his short hair. The crew on the South Bow were as close as family members. To her, Xiaowai was as interesting as a younger brother, and also a very useful younger brother.

"Who is this brat?" Glancing at Lin Sen, Xiao Wei raised half of his eyebrows. The two of them were similar in age, so they couldn't help but feel a sense of competition. However, Lin Sen's gentle and upright appearance made everyone look at him horizontally and vertically. Far better than him who looked like he had rolled in a garbage dump, Xiao Wai curled his lips and snorted.

"Little ghost? How old are you, why do you call me 'little ghost'?" Lin Sen couldn't help retorting, and stared back at Xiaowai unconvinced.

"Enough, you two!" roared, Akasha carried Lin Sen and Xiao Wai in one by one, while Nanda was rigorously making the final confirmation. Can not be less.

Walking into the bridge proudly, the Southern Bow is not like a regular battleship of the Cross Star Alliance, but its design and scale are very similar to the nine strongest warships in the Cross Star Alliance. Lin Sen looked around curiously, if it wasn't for Akasha Introduction, he would really think that this battleship belongs to the Cross Star Federation.

"Captain..." The young man sitting in the captain's seat in the middle stood up respectfully. Lin Sen stared at him in astonishment. For the first time, he saw pink pupils, and his complexion was even shining with platinum light. The facial features were exquisitely carved, so that he didn't know how to describe them, at least, he didn't know how to describe them in human language.

"He's nineteen, and he's doing odd jobs on the Nanbow. Basically, the other people can't do all the things that can't be done by the nineteen." Naturally sitting in the captain's chair, Akasha unexpectedly warmly introduced Nan The crew of the Bow, even though Lin Sen will soon abandon her in the Crimson Cross Observation Station, she still couldn't help sharing her pride. The Southern Bow gathered the best crew in the entire interstellar.

"Hi, I'm Lin Sen."

"Hi, I'm nineteen."

Greeted Nineteen politely. Lin Sen liked the friendliness of the other party. Although the tone and expression seemed to be deliberately calculated and just right, he really liked this young man named Nineteen. He was probably good-looking but not overbearing. His looks just aren't offensive.

"Akasha, you haven't said yet, what is this brat used for?" Looking at Lin Sen with hostility, Xiao Wai asked with a guarded look. They were the only ones on board the Southern Bow, and they never needed new crew members. , now there is suddenly one more person, who is Akasha going to replace?

"He..." Scratching her head, Akasha didn't know how to say it. She actually didn't want Lin Sen to board the ship. Everything was wrong.

"He is just a passenger, and he will leave with us when we arrive at our destination, not to replace anyone." Nanda, who finally walked into the bridge, replied calmly.

Although Akasha is the captain of the Southern Bow, her personality is too crazy, she often does not play cards according to the rules, and acts entirely on intuition and her own preferences, so the one who really handles the big and small things on the ship is serious and reserved of Nanda.This man who has been expressionless and pale for many years, once served in the battleship of the Cross Star Alliance, is an excellent navigator. As for the reason why he left the Cross Star Alliance Fleet, he did not say, and Akasha did not ask. , he stayed on the South Bow because of his superb driving skills.

"Passenger? But..., didn't Akasha set a rule not to carry organic matter?" Perhaps his personality was unbelievably upright, even in front of the captain, Nineteen was outspoken.

"Well……."

"Everything has a beginning, and the rules don't have to be followed. This is human nature."

Once again, Nanda answered, Akasha obviously couldn't stand Nineteen's "integrity". Facing his serious and innocent pink pupils, lying seemed to be a heinous thing.

"However, Akasha is not a human being." Not only is her personality upright, but she also doesn't know how to turn corners and accept things as soon as she sees them. Nineteen continued to investigate the bottom line. Even Lin Sen found it interesting. He believed that he would be able to change with Nineteen. It's a pity that he has to leave when he arrives at the Crimson Cross Observatory, otherwise he would like to spend more time with Shijiu and get to know this young man with pink pupils.

"Nineteen, we are going to the Crimson Cross Observation Station and set the course." Interrupting Nineteen's questioning at the right time, Nanda ordered in a strong tone. The young man with pink pupils didn't care at all. With an ooh, he immediately slid into the navigator's seat, his fingers skillfully flying on the dashboard.

"Captain, something is wrong..." The crew in charge of monitoring called out in a panic. The space station they thought was abandoned, unexpectedly detected signs of life, not one, two, but one. Not only that, the "small satellites" launched also returned data, showing that there are many ships parked nearby. The Crimson Cross Observatory is not an abandoned space station at all, it is more like a rest in the middle of an interstellar journey land.

"Is someone using the observation station? Do you know who it is?" Frowning his thick eyebrows, Captain Bao Guifu asked urgently. They have already contacted the Povals, and they can reach them with another vortex jump. Now the space station is full of people. How should we negotiate like this?Could it be an ambush in advance by someone with a heart?

"I don't know, I can't find any information." He shook his head in embarrassment. The crew in charge of the detection couldn't find any usable information at all. The Cross Star Alliance had almost given up on the Crimson Cross Observation Station. Full of old, useless stuff.

"Why don't we send people down! Since there are life reactions in the space station, it should be suitable for us..." Boldly put forward a suggestion, as the scientific officer of the Cross Star Federation, Mia didn't want to miss any opportunity to absorb new knowledge.

"Go down? Don't be kidding! What if there is an unknown creature waiting there, like number 9527, is it going to die like this?" The first person to object was the navigator De'an, who was used to being in the The feeling of interstellar travel, I really don't like entering space stations or landing on planets, it makes him very insecure.

"Yes, I don't recommend doing this either. We still have too little information about the space station. We should first send an unmanned scouting boat to understand the situation..." Seconded by the security officer, he is responsible for the safety of the entire ship's crew. , timely prevent the captain from making wrong judgments when he is too impetuous.

"There is a life reaction there. We can presume that it is an intelligent life form. If you send an unmanned scout boat in, wouldn't it just irritate the other party? Make them think we are hostile?"

"Is there no hostility in sending people there directly?"

Seeing that the security officer and the science officer were about to quarrel, Captain Bao Guifu stopped it with a deep cough, and finally asked him, the captain of Suan Ni XV, to make a decision.
