The First Evolution

Mir seemed to be very talkative. Several people came forward to chat with him. What Mir said was not top secret, but something they could learn when they got off the shuttle, so the soldiers tagging along didn’t stop him.

From Mir’s words, Fang Linyan and the other 2 learned that their mission should be to build a military base.

The standard deployment of each military base was 300 soldiers.

2 phantom fighter spacecraft for reconnaissance.

12 “Rainbow Trout” rapid response all-terrain jet combat vehicles,

24 four-wheeled “Adversary Annihilator” tracked armored self-propelled vehicles (can be equipped with high-explosive fuel injectors or Black Mamba tracking bombardment devices).

At the same time, after the military base was established, it must leave room for expansion in the future when it was converted into a mining town.

However, it could be built into military outposts. Although this possibility was briefly skipped by Mill.

But Fang Linyan knew that this could be the key point. This could be the absolute hard work that they had to face!

Just like a person applying for a job that offered 3000-9000 salary, and he already dreamed about the 9000 salary.

Wake up bro, what was waiting for him must be a monthly salary of 3,000. No, no, after deducting this and that, he might end up with only 1,700…

In addition, Fang Linyan also received good news.

That is, under the current heavy combat missions, warrior casualties were very heavy. The damage rate of fighter spacecraft and armed vehicles had also skyrocketed, so it was not only the army and mercenaries who were exhausted, but also the maintenance workers.

At first, they could take turns sleeping for a few hours a day, but later, as a large number of combat equipment was constantly being sent back, the maintenance workers were overworking. They were so busy that they didn’t even have time to eat, and their sleeping time was deprived too. Squeeze, everyone’s eyes are as red as rabbits.

Why didn’t androids like David work as maintenance workers?

When they were created, they could only load the combat module and do some simple mechanical work.

However, in order to determine faults and repair based on complex situations, this required a very sophisticated and advanced logical thinking program model. Similar artificial intelligence was still under development.

There was an interesting news after departure. The cabin started to play the relevant information of Planet Moston. This included terrifying creatures.

After flying for about 2 hours, this shuttle formation had already begun to enter the meteorite belt.

At this time, Rhinoceros Beetle II’s unique six thrusters displayed their advantage. They were shuttling in the meteorite belt like impeccable scarab beetles.

Large meteorites were dodged while crushing through smaller meteorites relying on their 2-layer thick armor.

This almost three-hour journey through the meteorite belt had been unforgettable for many passengers.

Because Rhinoceros Beetle II had two major shortcomings. The first was that the model was too old and the second was that it was too pragmatic, so comfort was completely ignored…

Therefore, 50% of people puked half an hour after entering the meteorite belt.

The remaining 49% of the people started vomiting ten minutes after entering the meteorite belt.

Fortunately, the crew had anticipated this, so they had thoughtfully prepared vomit bags within easy reach for everyone.

There were only 5 people who didn’t vomit.

Fang Linyan trio,

A thin-faced man huddled in a corner and kept silent.

As for Mir, he adjusted the seat belt to the shortest length, which was equivalent to tying himself to the seat, and then fell asleep.

Looking at that thin-faced man, Goat said,

“This guy is a bit suspicious. We didn’t puke because our bodies are digitalized. Is he also a contractor? Do you want me to check him out later?”

Fang Linyan smiled,

“Just keep an eye on him. We shouldn’t cause unnecessary complications now.”

“Don’t worry too much. I’m not hiding anything. In fact, the information collected so far is not complete, so I don’t have much confidence. Saying it will not help. It’s better to wait until I am absolutely sure.”

***

Finally, after 3 hours, this nightmare finally came to an end.

Some unlucky ones even puked bile. Their faces turned pale as if they were seriously ill.

Soon, the shuttle had begun to enter the atmosphere of Moston. Fang Linyan noticed that Mir had woken up, silently holding a cross as if praying.

Obviously, to Mir, there was no danger at all in the meteorite belt.

The upcoming journey was more dangerous to him.

After arriving in the airspace of Planet Moston, they saw large clouds of fog everywhere. It was hazy and the visibility was very poor.

Moreover, there were occasional lightning and rumbles in this mist, giving them an ominous premonition.

Not only that, the signal connection between the shuttles also began to become intermittent. They almost had to shout to barely let the others recognize their words.

Probably to avoid the fog in the air, the shuttle fleet was flying at ultra-low altitude.

It even directly hit the thick and soft cap of the huge purple mushroom tree on the ground many times, scattering large puffs of purple spores, which looked very spectacular.

Mir also looked a little nervous now. Although he was tied by the seat belt, his hands were tightly holding the railing beside.

Fang Linyan could understand his nervousness because he had used Laget’s account to access the intranet before and knew some top-secret information.

The harsh climate on Planet Moston (codenamed Planet Beta on the intranet) was quite terrifying. Even if it was just taking off and landing, the crash rate had reached 8.2%. What did this mean?

When a spacecraft was flying, for every 12 takeoffs and landings, there was a high probability of crashing! Although the crash did not mean that the aircraft was destroyed and everyone was killed, it was still frightening enough.

Fortunately, the pilot was very stable. It took about half an hour for the spacecraft to safely dock at the airport.

This was the first fortress built by the Star Consortium on Planet Moston. It was named New Watchfort. Almost 3000 people were stationed.

In order to strengthen its defense, the components were airdropped at no cost. A steel-concrete city wall with a height of 5 meters and a width of about 8 meters was built directly around it.

According to the introduction, the suppressive firepower on the city wall was extremely amazing. The total power was as follows:

24 Hotchkiss 47mm electromagnetic rapid-fire cannons,

12 AN/SQR-20 Punisher 127mm twin omnipotent cannons,

12 Barracuda 610mm rapid-fire acid missile launchers,

The most noteworthy weapon was the 2 penetrating heat ray precision strike systems that had not yet been mass-produced, also known as Doomsday Gaze.

Any enemy hit by it would be instantly penetrated by high-heat rays, reaching tens of thousands of degrees. It was almost indestructible.

Such a defensive force could only be described as armed to the teeth.

When this military operation was completed, New Watchfort would become the largest advanced mining base on Planet Moston, maintaining the ability to expand into a town of 2000-3000 people within a week.

It was not too difficult to build a city on an alien planet. All kinds of components could be manufactured directly in the factory, and then they could be hoisted and assembled by heavy-duty transport aircraft. Its essence was not much different from Lego bricks.

The New Watchfort was even built in a more convenient way. The living barracks were reinforced containers with built-in air filtration facilities, beds, free water vapor collection facilities, intelligent modules, bulletproof armor, etc.

It was mounted under a transport ship and could be used directly after dropping it on the ground. Of course, the premise was that the user needed to know the password to open the door and bring a blanket with him.

Before Fang Linyan and the others were driven off the Rhinoceros Beetle II, everyone was told to wear the given filter masks.

Although the air on Moston was barely breathable by humans, poisoning symptoms would appear after an hour at most, so a filter mask must be used to shield harmful substances in the air.

However, Fang Linyan secretly took a few breaths and realized that this thing might be poisonous to ordinary people, but the contractor’s digitalized body could survive for at least a day. Those with high stamina might not need this thing at all. This was probably also the advantage of the contractor.

Then, they were quickly sent to a large barracks nearby, where 8 soldiers were already waiting.

As soon as Fang Linyan and the others sat down, the leader, a bearded officer named Jason, said loudly,

“Rookies! Welcome to hell!”

“Now, pick up that little blue pill in front of you and eat it!”

“Don’t worry, its effect is not to keep your thing standing up at a ninety-degree angle, but it can quickly relieve your airsickness symptoms of severe vomiting.”

“I’ll give you 10 seconds!”

“Hey, why don’t you eat?”

Jason looked at Fang Linyan and the other 2 and said with annoyance.

TL: Probably some kind of poison that needs constant detoxification pill to survive?
