Survival of the Stars: Rise of the Fourth Scourge

"Don't be afraid, it won't eat you again."

Grabbing Erusa's hand, Li Meng pulled her towards the reclining chair.

Going back to the recliner and sitting down, Erusa got into her arms obediently, and snuggled into Li Meng's arms,
The long tail flicks and flicks.

In Li Meng's arms, Erusa said softly: "Master, after all, Qiwuxing is the home planet of the Yi'er people. Although it has not returned for tens of thousands of years, the Yi'er people have never forgotten this place. One day, there will be curious people." The Yiers want to come back and take a look at their home planet. When they find that humans have occupied this place, they will realize that the threat of the Snake-Winged King Beast is no longer there. There will be an upsurge of returning to the home planet among the Yirs. At that time, the battle between the Yiers and humans may be unavoidable."

Li Meng thought of this day when he learned that Qi Wuxing was the home planet of the Yi'er people.

But this is also something that can't be done.

Among the nearby habitable planets, only Qiwuxing has the best living environment.

The environment of other habitable planets is too harsh.

Apart from being able to breathe, it is not suitable for human survival at all.

Because there is no choice, even if Qi Wuxing is the mother star of the four great empires, humans should occupy it or have to occupy it.

Even if they had to relocate in the future, that was in the future.

Human beings now need a period of peaceful development and a place to stay.

"Let's talk about it at that time, no matter how difficult the problem is, there is always a solution."

It's important to plan for a rainy day, but nothing can be done without a foundation to fix things.

Human beings can only take one step at a time.

With a slight sideways glance, Li Meng looked at Qi Wuxing outside the window.

Calculating the time, the squadron heading to the dark domain should be arriving soon.

It's been almost four years, and I haven't heard from the astropath yet.

Could it be that there was some accident?
No, it won't.

The node of the astropath is still there, indicating that the fleet is still sailing in the subspace.

It seems to have encountered a subspace storm, and the sailing time has been greatly increased.
-
The starry sky was vast, dark, cold and dead.

In the depths of the distant starry sky.

In a dark universe.

With the stars as the background, the space suddenly distorted.

A purple-red vortex emerged strangely.

Large and small dark-colored giant ships flew out of the purple-red vortex.

As the fleet jumped out of the subspace, the purple-red vortex collapsed and disappeared.

This is a fleet consisting of six Cobra destroyers, three Firestorm-class frigates, and one Lunar-class cruiser.

In the flagship, in the bridge.

"Colonel Mullen, we have arrived at the designated star field."

Outside the viewing window, the protective deck is slowly opening.

Standing up, Mullen came to the window and looked at the familiar starry sky outside.

"Where are we?" Mullen asked.

"In an unknown star system, the auspicious instrument shows that the instrument is very calm, and no aircraft has been detected."

"Captain Mullen, after observing with optical equipment, there are seventeen planet-level celestial bodies in the star system. One of the planets seems to have the possibility of life, and water and green vegetation have been found on it."

Habitable planet?

Mullen was overjoyed.

They are too lucky.

There is a one-in-a-million chance of being touched by them.

We must know that in the universe, naturally formed habitable planets are extremely rare.

Most of the habitable planets suitable for carbon-based living organisms are acquired through modification.

As for which ancient civilization transformed it, it is a mystery.

With a wave of his hand, Maren said: "The fleet will go to the target planet immediately, immediately!"

Their mission this time is to find a habitable planet.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he jumped out of the subspace, he found a habitable planet.

This made Mullen a little unbelievable.

When did he become so lucky.

"Also, tell Wang about the news here, saying that we have arrived and discovered a celestial body similar to a habitable planet, and we are conducting the first phase of exploration work."

Outside, following Mullen's order.

The engines at the stern of each ship spewed out long white smoke.

Under the powerful thrust, the fleet continued to accelerate and flew into the depths of the starry sky.

Three hours later...

In a dark universe, a blue planet floats quietly.

In the outer space of the planet, the fleet slowly entered the orbit of the planet.

Looking at the blue jade-like planet in front of him, a hint of surprise flashed in Ma Lun's eyes.

It's so beautiful, it's definitely a habitable planet.

You can see the ocean, forests, mountains, lakes.

With green vegetation, it is enough to show that it is a livable planet.

As for whether there is an environment suitable for human breathing, this is another matter.

"Immediately carry out the first stage of exploration, let the "V3" transport ship set off, and establish a scientific research base on the planet."

A strange habitable planet, and it takes a lot of work to occupy it.

With an order from Mullen, outside, the harbor gate on the left side of the flagship slowly opened.

Five "V3" transport boats flew out one after another, heading straight for the surface of the planet.

After a while, it broke into the atmosphere.

For a moment, looking at the sky from the ground of the planet, five huge fireballs appeared in the sky.

And looking towards the higher sky, nine small hulls can be seen.

It lasted for more than 20 seconds before the flame dissipated.

At an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, five "V3" transport boats rushed down with long white trails.

That's a trail cloud.

"Landing team, how is the air quality?"

On the bridge, Mullen kept an eye on the progress of the landing team.

"Gravity 1.1, no toxic substances detected in the air, oxygen content 1.3, can be breathed directly."

Hearing this, Marlon breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't expect this mission to go so smoothly.

A fantastic new home has been found so quickly.

The environment of this planet is simply perfect.

Continents occupy two-thirds of the total area, and oceans account for only one percent.

"Continue the mission to analyze the planet's surface vegetation, water, and rock, soil composition."

No matter how perfect a habitable planet is, there may be threats.

Mullen knew that he couldn't be careless at this moment.

He has to collect data on this planet.

Atmosphere, air density, oxygen content, vegetation, rocks, soil, and water.

Everything must be analyzed, and nothing can be left behind.

There are also microorganisms on the planet, whether there are viruses harmful to humans.

It often takes several years for a newly discovered habitable planet to determine whether it is suitable for colonization.

Every step cannot be missed.

One carelessness, one mistake, will often cause a large number of unnecessary casualties.

The engine roared, resounding through the sky.

From the clouds, five "V3" transport boats rushed straight down.

The powerful power created a vortex in the clouds behind, disturbing a large cloud of fog.

Over a mountain range, five "V3 transport boats" flew at low altitude.

Skimming over the top of the mountain, a stream of air visible to the naked eye was raised.
