Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1425: Eternal Night Star (3)

Somewhere in the space of the Mubes star field, a gleam of light suddenly emerged in the dead space. The light stretched left and right until it stretched out to a width of nearly a kilometer before stopping. The light began to fluctuate up and down, forming a regular zigzag, and then opened up and down like a starship hatch, and a space channel appeared in space.

Platinum-gold starships slid out of the passageway as gracefully as flying birds. After a total of four Idahua starships jumped out of the passageway, the space passageway began to close up and down, and finally disappeared.

The starship flew towards Yongye Star according to the established orbit, and a few minutes later, a dim planet appeared in front of the starship. There is no sun-like star in this space, and the whole space looks cold and dark. But in fact, a long time ago, there was actually a sun in this space, and Yongyexing was not called this name before, it was named after the Idahua star who discovered it. At that time, the sun had died, and this piece of space was like being under the eternal night, so it was named after Eternal Night.

A large number of relics found on Evernight Star indicate that this planet was once as prosperous as Idahua Star. After the sun disappears, planetary civilization can even support the technology of artificial sun, but unfortunately, after thousands of years, there is no resources to support the existence of artificial sun, and the planet has entered the period of eternal night. Most of the natives of the planet left by aircraft, but they didn't know if they finally found a habitable planet.

The remaining natives died in large numbers due to environmental changes, and only a very small number survived tenaciously. The natives who survived have become ferocious and evil. These natives called "Night Demons" have extraordinary adaptability. Their bodies have become very strong and they are extremely sensitive to danger. But gone forever. This makes scholars who study them wonder whether such a phenomenon should be called evolution or degeneration.

Inside the first starship, a planet is floating in front of Lucy, which is the three-dimensional projection of the eternal night star. She adjusted the angle with both hands, zoomed in and observed the interior of the planet, and there were text materials constantly appearing beside her to help Lucy understand the planet faster.

The projected vision suddenly disappeared, and the Marquis of Main, who was sitting next to her, said softly: "Your Highness, we are about to enter the planet's atmosphere, please prepare for the impact."

Lucy nodded and activated the magnetic system to fix herself on the seat. At this time, the starship began to enter the atmosphere of Yongyexing. The planet's atmosphere was already riddled with holes, which allowed countless deadly cosmic rays to easily enter the interior of the planet, aggravating the death of Yongyexing. When the starship entered the atmosphere, it still wiped out a pair of fire wings.

After passing through the atmosphere, in front of the fleet is a boundless thick cloud. Before entering the cloud layer, a strong hurricane swept across, causing the ship to shake endlessly. When the golden shields were opened one by one, the starship stabilized.

The starship got into the thick cloud, and Lucy looked out the window. Countless hailstones and lightning kept hitting the shield, causing circles and ripples. The environment inside this planet is indeed harsh, and the thinnest lightning strikes are the size of a human arm.

The thick one is almost like the mouth of a bowl, full of power.

Fortunately, the starship left the thundercloud quickly, but there was a raging sea below. The sea was choppy, with waves more than ten meters high rising from time to time. Sometimes when the wave walls collide and overlap, a huge wave of 100 meters will be set off. Looking from the sky, huge waves are coming from the sky, almost as if the whole sea has been turned upside down, it is very scary!

The starship slid past the crest of a huge wave, and the wave head fell behind the ship, and a wave of flood rolled away. A wave ends flat, and another wave rises again. Suddenly, several waterspouts rose from the sea in front of them. The waterspouts connected to the thunderclouds in the sky and continued to grow. In the blink of an eye, five or six huge pillars were erected between the sky and the earth.

The waterspout moved towards the starship, and several starships were as small as bugs under the power of the world. Lucy's pale face softened only after the starship flew thrillingly between the two waterspouts.

The sea receded quickly under the high-speed grazing of the starship, and after a while, Lucy saw the land.

In a blink of an eye, the fleet had already flown above the land, and the climate here was relatively stable. Through the portholes, one could see that the land was deserted, and there were huge cracks on the ground from time to time. Looking down from these cracks, you can see the staggered strata below, and occasionally ground fire will spew out from such cracks. When the ground fire falls to the ground, it emits deadly poisonous smoke. Now on the land of Yongyexing, the only people who can carry out activities without protective clothing are the night demons.

When she saw the energy shield shining on a lonely mountain, Lucy knew that she had finally arrived at the research base of Idahua star on this planet. The base is located on a mountain peak, and the only way to get in and out of the base is by starships. In addition, there is no second passage on the cliff of the lonely mountain.

At this moment, people can be seen at the foot of the mountain, and those are the night demons native to the planet. These night devils always try to climb the lonely mountain, and the steepness of the mountain always makes them return in vain. Even if there are particularly strong night devils who can climb to the top of the mountain, the energy turret installed on the outer wall of the base is not a decoration. Furthermore, night devils can't break through the shield of the base. Even so, they still linger on the base like moths. This has been the case for many years.

The people in the base were used to this, but it was the first time for Lucy to see it, so her face was a little ugly. Ma Yin said next to him: "The visual system of night devils has degenerated, but their sense of hearing and smell have become extremely sharp. Wisdom has disappeared from them, and only the primitive animal nature remains. They have great ability to hunt and kill life." Almost perverted paranoia, and now, there are not many lives on Yongyexing. The night demons under the base are probably wandering from other places. I am afraid that the only remaining planet natives on Yongyexing have gathered here .”

The starship turned around, allowing Lucy to see the terrifying black figures at the foot of the mountain. They opened their arms and screamed loudly, as if they wanted to catch the starship flying over their heads. The next moment, some night demons who climbed up the mountain really rushed towards the starship, then fell in mid-air, and disappeared into the black tide below.

Entering the base from the safe entrance, after the starship landed smoothly, Lucy deactivated the magnetic system, and led Angeloni to the hatch behind Maine. After a while, the cabin door opened, and Lucy walked down the elevator deck, and was startled by the sudden royal welcome music, which turned out to be prepared by the personnel staying at the base to welcome her.

Lucy winked at Main, and the latter understood, smiled and raised his hands and said, "Your Highness already knows your wishes, but the time is tight now, and these ceremonies can be omitted. Who is the person in charge of the base now?"

A man in the team stepped out boldly, bowed to Lucy and Main, and said, "Baron Duke is here to wait for His Royal Highness to dispatch."

Ma Yin turned sideways, and Lucy walked in front of him and said with a smile: "Then in Yongye for a few days, Baron Lao will take care of him."

Baron Duke was quite flattered, and quickly said: "It should be, I don't know what Your Highness needs me to do."

Ma Yin stepped forward and said: "First arrange a place for His Highness to rest."

"I am not tired."

Ma Yin smiled and said, "I know Your Highness is anxious to find the temple, but we should be fully prepared for a smooth journey. Please give me six hours, Your Highness, and we will set off immediately after six hours."

Since Ma Yin said so, Lucy couldn't continue to insist, so she nodded in agreement.

Duke immediately called two female soldiers and told them to take Lucy to rest first. Ma Yincai said to him again: "I want a copy of Yongyexing's current environmental assessment, as well as a report on the distribution and evolution of the Night Devils."

"Give me ten minutes, please." The baron paused, and asked, "My lord, what is the purpose of that Highness coming down to Yongye? This planet is about to end. We have been notified that we will be evacuating this place in a week." I'm afraid you won't be able to stay here for too long."

"Understood, we can only stay for a week at most. As for what His Highness Lucy is looking for, it is an ancient temple. Its name translates to 'Zheka' in our language. That's right, it is the Temple of Zheka."

"Zheka Temple?" Baron Duke's expression was extremely surprised: "You actually want to go to that kind of place, God, it's too dangerous."

"It seems the baron knows the place."

"Of course it is clear that the Zheka Temple can be said to be the oldest temple on the Eternal Night Star. It is located in the annihilated imperial city Suraka. Our scholars have conducted detailed research on that imperial city and temple. , There are still documents in the base. Oh, right. Mr. Morodo is still in the base, he is one of the scholars who participated in the research of the ruins, and he can provide you with the necessary information.”

Ma Yin said happily: "That's great, I hope this gentleman can be a tour guide."

"Then he must be happy. A few days ago, he was clamoring to go back and do another investigation. If I hadn't asked people to watch him closely all day, maybe he would have stolen the starship and left." Duke hehe laughed.

When Lucy and his party were preparing to go to the temple, a bright light suddenly appeared in a space in the Mubes star field. The strong light radiated for several kilometers, and after the light gradually disappeared, there were already more armed starships in space.

"Damn, can't you open the passage in a more stable place?"

"Who knew there was an undercurrent of space here? After all, this is the oldest star field among the nine star fields. I wouldn't be surprised even if I bumped into a cosmic star beast. Captain, you can just do it."

"Bastard, what kind of attitude do you have? I'm the captain! Captain!"

"Okay, okay, Captain, I will pay more attention next time."

In the control room of the starship, there are six or seven aliens. They have different shapes and obviously come from different planets. Without exception, the breath of these aliens is not weak. They are interstellar mercenaries, as long as they are paid, they will accept any mission. Among the interstellar mercenaries, the most notorious ones are the Nilms. These aliens on Menthor planet can do the work of interstellar pirates at any time as long as they want to.

And on this starship, the person sitting in the captain's seat is obviously a Nilm. At any time, the metal-like skin and the purple blood vessels between the lips are the symbols of the Nirm people.
