Chapter 930 - Alien Planet in Nuclear Winter

The small flying ship with a maximum rated capacity of 500 people carried Chen Fei and his party and slowly lifted off vertically from the boarding bridge of the No. 1 base airport. It began to accelerate at an altitude of 100 meters from the ground and flew directly to the north.

The new type of element annihilation bomb must not be tested on Blue Star, and it must not release its power near Base No. 1 on Emerald Star. The former is likely to attract unnecessary attention from the sovereigns, and the latter may cause a certain degree of damage to Base No. 1. After all, there are resource mining points near the base, and railways and highways are interconnected, connecting the branch bases under construction in the distance and the direction of the future base.

The selected test site is 1 kilometers due north of Base No. 2500, and the small flying ship is expected to arrive in one hour.

The biggest problem facing Emerald Star right now is not the nuclear radiation pollution that is pervasive, but the mutant population that is beginning to multiply explosively.

The mutant originating from the Blue Planet is itself a product of nuclear pollution. Under the influence of radiation, DNA fragments constantly collapse and recombine. Although in most cases, the result of gene breakage is only death, the most likely thing to happen in life is miracles, or it can be said that life itself is the greatest miracle in this world.

The mutants that have survived the test of time are often able to adapt to the nuclear contaminated environment and can even use radioactivity as a catalyst to promote their own evolution. The mutants whose genetic sequences have been artificially edited by the sovereigns of the Blue Star are particularly prominent in this regard.

If such a mutant appeared on the Blue Planet and there were no corresponding countermeasures, it would probably become a disaster with a threat no less severe than that of the parasitic species.

But on Emerald Star, the only ones that suffered were the "nests" used by parasitic species to cultivate biological combat weapons, and countless groups of monsters.

The star's light was blocked by thick clouds of nuclear radiation, and the temperature in the atmosphere near the surface dropped sharply, with an average value of around minus 30 degrees Celsius. The nuclear winter caused by multiple Tsar Plus super nuclear weapons almost swept across the entire Emerald Star.

The endless gray snow covered almost all of the surface, with only the North and South Poles spared, where one could barely see the starry sky beyond the aurora.

Small flying ships only dared to fly below the thick clouds and did not dare to fly above the clouds, otherwise they would be ruthlessly attacked by the biological space motherships of the parasitic species.

The key members of the Element Annihilation Weapon R&D team who came here for the first time were curiously looking at the thick dark clouds outside the porthole. The average temperature outside was minus 30 degrees Celsius.
It was chilling to imagine this scene happening on Blue Star. The head of the Element Annihilation Weapon R&D team finally turned his gaze away from the monotonous scenery outside the porthole and asked Chen Fei, "Captain, when will the nuclear winter end?"

No matter whether it is the small flying ship in front of him, the giant flying ship of Blue Star, or the flying ship combat cluster temporarily occupied by the command center, Chen Fei is undoubtedly the captain, and whoever he wants to get off the ship must get off the ship.

"It could be as short as three years or as long as five years. There's still time!"

Chen Fei took a look at the construction status of the branch base. The progress was already more than half, the number of resource mining points exceeded 500, and the industrial technology tree was 1% completed. Although there was still a long way to go, once industrial construction was put into place, without external interference and internal strife, the development speed would be geometric.

The industrial revolution of human civilization on Blue Planet began in modern history. Ten years of development can exceed the previous hundred years, from walking to bicycles, to electric scooters, to four-wheeled coupes, and then to high-speed trains, airplanes, supersonic aircraft, and space shuttles. The development speed will only get faster and faster before reaching the bottleneck of basic materials and processing technology.

Nuclear winter will not exist for long. Even the ubiquitous radioactive isotopes will decay away in three to five hundred years at most. Before the radioactive snow cloud that almost covers the entire surface of the planet dissipates, the artificial intelligence AI "Adam" with a maxed-out industrial technology tree should have the strength to challenge the biological space carrier fleet.

Chen Fei was not worried about whether this force would threaten Blue Star. After all, the "method of movement" was completely controlled by the S-level space-based psychic Herseman Brown. Unless "Adam" could obtain the paired plane coordinates "Longinus" and had to rely on Chen Fei's psychic skills to establish a boundary gate in a very short time, he would inevitably be obstructed and attacked by the sovereigns of Blue Star. After all, the sovereigns would never slack off when fighting at home.

"Time is running out! Will your bases make it in time?"

The elemental annihilation weapon research and development team led by Mino Heaton is not the only team providing support for Chen Fei's actions. The entire technology library of Louis Industries is almost fully open to him and he can request it at any time.

Even if Louis Industries does not have the technology, there is still a way to get it. After all, the interests involved in Emerald Star are enough to ignore the existence of patent law.

Technology, materials and AI management, the construction process of the real-life version of "Colonize Emerald Planet" is changing almost every day.

"Even if it's too late, there will be other backup plans. At worst, we can just beat them to pieces."

Chen Fei was not only paying attention to the expansion of the Emerald Star's base and the movements of the parasitic species, but also the reproduction of the mutants spread all over the surface of the planet.

The mutant population closest to Base No. 1 is at least three thousand kilometers away. This buffer distance ensures that for at least one year, Chen Fei does not have to worry about the rapid increase in the number of mutants affecting his industrial construction.

Otherwise, if they lose their composure, it would be a lot of fun. This is also the distance that was deliberately reserved when the mutant embryos were released.

If the military force accumulated by the artificial intelligence AI "Adam" is still unable to compete with the biological space carriers of the parasitic species before the end of the nuclear winter, then the mutants that have already flooded the Emerald Star will be enough to cause headaches for the other side for a long time.

Unless another devastating ecological extinction is launched, the state of Emerald Planet will make it impossible for the parasitic species to restore a sufficient number of "nests" in a short period of time to produce a large number of biological combat weapons.

Although it is not known whether the alien civilization "Sagali" has any other trump cards, the Emerald Star will definitely be ruined in the next few hundred years, and the situation will be completely different a few hundred years later.

Adam: We have arrived at our destination. 150 kilometers ahead, there is a shallow, super-large "nest". The individual nest is 5 kilometers in diameter and 15 kilometers deep.

Adam: Biological reaction detected on the ground, number 165975.

A three-dimensional holographic projection appeared inside the small flying ship, and together with the released reconnaissance drone, the conditions of the sky and the ground within a radius of 300 kilometers were gradually presented.

In the thick layer of snow, figures emerge from the snow one after another. Looking down from the sky, the location of the super-large "nest" looks more like a large lake that has never frozen. The maintained heat causes mist to rise from the lake surface, and living creatures emerge from the water from time to time.

This "nest" remains active.

The reconnaissance drone quickly captured a picture of hundreds of monsters fighting each other.
