When Hao Ren drilled out of the crack in the elevator shaft, he saw the scene inside the 100-kilometer-long starship, which was amazing.

He saw a huge interior space far beyond his eyesight, in which there was a starship city. Numerous buildings spread out on the earth, and the earth gradually swelled in the distance, warped, and finally closed at the other end of the sky, the entire city was built in a closed oval shape like an eggshell Inside the container, all the artificial earth and buildings are attached to the inner wall of this layer of eggshell.

He looked in all directions, a strange sense of dizziness was dazzling: there is no sky, there is no strict difference between the upper and lower, the closed ground forms a spherical shell, no matter which direction you look in, you can see the row of lines. Buildings and huge and weird machinery. Hao Ren glanced back at the elevator shaft that he passed through when he came down, and he discovered that it was originally a metal tube that penetrated the entire space of the spherical shell. There were more than a dozen such metal tubes arranged in parallel behind him. A large building in the inner city stretched out and eventually disappeared in another large building opposite. And in the half-waist of these parallel metal pipes, you can see many platforms and horizontal pipes suspended in the center of the space. Obviously this is the main road of traffic.

And such "parallel metal tube clusters" are not the only ones. When looking far away, Hao Ren saw from the faint shimmer silhouette that there are other metal tubes standing in the distance, they are like The bones in the monster's body penetrated the giant ship in a criss-cross pattern, maintaining the transportation path between the city and the outside world.

The last one of Vivian came out. She looked at the city in this spherical shell curiously and muttered: "There is no air, there is silence ... but there is light."

The city is not dark, but it is not bright. Between those silent buildings, you can see that the remaining lighting system is still in operation, and countless stars and dots of light flicker in every corner of the closed earth, putting the whole city in a glimmer of light, and in this ellipse At one end of the space of the spherical shell, you can see an extraordinarily huge thing. It is a cylindrical "mountain". It looks like a huge machine with a complex structure. The outer edge of the machine is a circle of orange red. The shimmering structure like a heat sink, this layer of light is like the sunlight at dusk, bringing some light to this shimmering city.

However, all of these lights are far from bright-there must be something wrong with the internal system of this ship, whether it is the residual lighting in the city or the huge machine at the end of the spherical shell space, it is obviously not full. The load operation is more like a certain standby state.

"There is no life response," Hao Ren glanced at the readings sent by ASanbaA. Although the terminal as a portable personal data assistant does not have too strong scanning capabilities, but looking at this cold and dead place in front of him, he did not think With a larger radar, you can find survivors in the city. "There is no atmosphere, no water, almost as cold as the outer space, and there is excessive radiation ... It seems that people are dead."

Nangong Wuyue suddenly floated and poked the arm of Hao Ren with the tip of her tail. She pointed in a certain direction: "People are indeed dead."

Hao Ren looks in the direction of the Nangong Wuyue fingers, and suddenly sees the corpse of a humanoid creature floating in the air in the distance.

And when he looked closely, he found more remains, which floated in the cracks of the city buildings, some of them had floated to the height of the spherical shell space-there is no up and down in this The place of division is strictly the "height" which is the center of this closed space, which is far away from every outer wall. Countless corpses float in the air in this way, and most of them are incomplete. The ultra-low temperature makes them vulnerable, and a slight collision will break the corpse like breaking ice. These surviving surviving bodies should still be relatively lucky, and more of them may have turned into dust in countless collisions over a long time.

Hao Ren turned and floated to a group of buildings closer to him, and "landed" on the top of a tall building. When you do n’t look up at the upside-down buildings, the weird illusion of upside down is less obvious. He found that there were also several bodies floating near the building, and came to them to check the situation.

"The facial features are close to the standard type I humans, with light skin, long ears, slender bones, and tall bodies, which cannot be ruled out as a result of long-term space survival," Hao Ren examines the body like a professional coroner Biological characteristics, and compare it with the biological pedigree on the data network, "preserved well."

"There is no air here, and it is extremely cold. The corpses will not rot and dry up, and they will almost keep the appearance of death after being turned into ice sculptures," Nangong Sanba said while taking out some delicate things from the tool bag. Knife and metal needle, cut on the body to check, "I see what residual information."

Hao Ren looked up at this silent shimmering city, guessing the reason for the tragic death of all the crew on this ark: "Is the air leak causing the death of the crew? Or is there another reason causing the life-saving system to shut down?"

"The airlocks previously discovered were faulty, but the outermost gate of the airlocks remained closed, and the control system was able to operate normally," ASanbaA said. "This ship is too large and may need to be A detailed scan of the entire shell can determine the cause of the accident. And there are more than a dozen other ships outside. The aircraft feels that their conditions are not better than here. "

Hao Ren nodded and turned on the communicator: "Nolan, release the detector and perform shell inspection on the giant ship we are in to see if there are leaks or other fatal scars."

"Nolan understands."

At this time, Nangong Sanba had already inspected the first body. He seemed to have found it, so he floated to the next few bodies and examined it. Nangong Wuyue asked curiously, "Brother, what did you find?"

"None of these people died of suffocation and low temperature," Nangong Sanba put away his tools. "Their death is very peaceful. There are some residual chemicals in the frozen blood vessels, much like ..."

Lily roared and asked, "What does it look like?"

"Much like inhaling a large amount of hallucinogen ... or something," Nangong Sanba pointed to the surrounding area. "Every body is like this."

"Halogens?" Hao Ren looked surprised, "Is these people killed by drugs?"

"Although this is almost what I mean, I think there is something wrong with your choice of words," Nangong Sanji's mouth twitched twice. "At present, I have only checked a few bodies here. Farther away. "

Hao Ren yelled and turned to the street in the distance.

Although the city inside the ship is deep inside the spaceship, due to the huge volume of the spaceship itself, the scale of the city is naturally unparalleled. There are a large number of buildings and a variety of complete facilities here. The streets are wide and the buildings are tall. If you don't look up, you can see the closed artificial earth. The people in it may even forget the true face of the city.

People came deep into the city and soon found more bodies, and ... something more wrong.

They found a building with a beautiful round glass dome and a wide internal space. Judging from the form of decoration, this should be a special venue for gatherings. Because the building's outer wall broke a big hole, Hao Ren directly drilled down the hole and saw an astonishing scene:

It seems that a banquet is being held here. In the huge venue, you can see countless neatly arranged tables with rich food on the table. Although everything has been covered by a layer of frost, it can still be seen This is a grand dinner. A large number of corpses filled this place, and they still maintained the appearance of the moment of death: sitting at the dining table, men wore neatly dressed little dresses, women wore bright and beautiful new dresses, even though they had frozen into an ice corpse But still dressed as if at a banquet. In the corner of the hall, Hao Ren also saw several male bodies in long black dresses fall down on the small table over there. They were frozen with the surrounding things, holding something like a musical instrument in their hands: this seems to It's a small band.

A hearty dining table, accompaniment band, men and women in dresses, there was a feast here-before everyone died.

"I feel shaggy." Nangong Wuyue rubbed his hands.

"I feel hairy." Lily shook his tail. (To be continued.)
