Chapter 244 Rotten Meat
How many steps are needed to rescue a research ship stuck in a wrinkle in time and space?
The answer is two steps.

The first step is to smooth out the folds as much as possible to reveal the complete body shape of the scientific research ship hidden inside.

The second step is to use the traction field to forcefully pull it out.

Compared with towing Varela's small universe, towing a scientific research ship is undoubtedly much less difficult - the working environment of the former is in the virtual abyss between the hyperspace membrane and the large universe, where violent gravity and dangerous five-dimensional space may occur at any time. Tear the tug ship to pieces, and the latter is just a small fight within the big universe bubble.

Chen Fan, who had personally witnessed the extremely difficult rescue work in the small universe, would not be stumped by such a small problem. In just a few hours, the fusiform scientific research ship was pulled out by the traction field of the Varela.

But until now, the entire investigation is just on track.

"One, try to get in touch with the main brain of the scientific research ship."

Looking at the fusiform scientific research ship parked quietly next to the Varela, Chen Fan turned to Yi and gave an order: "If possible, control it to continue reducing its dimensions and entering three-dimensional space-time."

As soon as he finished speaking, a materialized light path extended from the belly of the [Varilla] and quickly connected to a data transmission interface on the belly of the scientific research ship - this is the universal data interface of the Human Alliance starship.

[The universal data transmission protocol has been submitted and is waiting for a response from the target starship mastermind...]

"Yes." Song Ziliang spread his hands, "But Ling has to take action."

Song Ziliang hurriedly hung up the communication: "You prepare the data transmission interface first. It is estimated that the Academy of Sciences will open the data interface in a short time."

"At present, it seems that this thing is completely down. How about... I send it back to the management office?"

Sensing the confusion in Chen Fan's eyes, Song Ziliang explained: "Unlike regular starships, in order to avoid the leakage of confidential information, it can activate the blocking mode from within."

Too bad he still wants to cut up the scientific research ship to investigate the internal situation!
"This is the first time I've heard of a scientific research ship that has activated the ban mode since the birth of this model." Song Ziliang's eyes showed some uneasiness, and he murmured in a low voice, "I don't know what kind of crisis this scientific research ship has encountered... "

Usually, this means that the control system inside the research vessel has completely shut down!

【warn! The target is not responding! 】

Ok!

"Ask Academician Song."

"Then..." Chen Fan looked at Song Ziliang in the communication interface with some confusion.

"Every scientific research vessel has two sets of backup energy sources and main control systems inside."

"The main system and the two secondary systems work independently, and the three systems are down at the same time... So far, the People's Federation has never encountered this situation."

Suddenly, a bright red warning flashed in the holographic projection in front of him.

[Emergency rescue protocol is being activated...]

The ship's main brain did not respond to the message, and even the emergency rescue protocol could not get a response...

Chen Fan asked Song Ziliang directly.

"It may be that the researchers inside the research ship manually turned on the ban mode."

"He designed this thing himself, and currently only he can undo it."

Looking at the scientific research ship that was almost the same size as a large piece of scrap metal outside the porthole, Chen Fan sighed with some melancholy.

"Is there any way to open the lock from the outside?"

Chen Fan asked tentatively.

……

The internal control system was completely down, and he couldn't even enter the research ship, let alone the so-called investigation work.

What surprised Chen Fan was that when faced with his question, Song Ziliang shook his head slightly: "I'm afraid it's not a problem with the control system being down."

"The ship's main brain didn't respond?"

After going around for a long time, I still have to ask Ling Zu to come out!
"Wait a minute, I'm going to apply."

A prompt message and a waiting sign flashed across the holographic panel quickly.

[No response message from the target starship master brain was detected. 】

This is almost impossible to happen!

"This is troublesome..."

As the highest technological crystallization of the People's Federation, the defensive performance and internal stability of the scientific research ship have reached outrageous levels - to put it in the most straightforward terms, even in the face of the siege of an eighth-level civilization, this scientific research ship can survive Escaped unharmed under the control of the ship's mastermind!

……

【warn! 】

Hearing Chen Fan's description, Song Ziliang couldn't help but frowned: "Can't you even get a response to the emergency rescue agreement?"

Chen Fan swallowed, and a few drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Seeing the warning messages that kept flashing, Chen Fan's face suddenly turned ugly.

One minute, two minutes...

"To put it simply, it means denying all external access to data. At the same time, once abnormal damage to the hull is detected, the scientific research ship will directly enter a state of self-destruction - the reactor will quickly produce a sufficient amount of antimatter to ensure that no trace is left behind. trace."

In fact, this is probably the only solution - he doesn't have the tools to cut through the hull of the scientific research ship safely.

"Data transfer interface successfully matched."

Chen Fan shook his head helplessly: "If it doesn't work, send it to the Dangerous Technology Administration Bureau for cutting and exploration."

"Receiving data stream, data source: People's Academy of Sciences."

At the same time as the electronic synthesized sound sounded, a familiar figure appeared in the holographic projection in front of the main console.

"what?"

A gentle voice sounded in the cockpit: "Why is it your kid again?"

Ling "looked" at Chen Fan in the cockpit with some surprise.

If he remembered correctly, he had just contacted this investigator not long ago, and he had the impression that he was a very interesting newcomer. Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a few days, this newcomer would start to carry out investigation tasks of this level...

"Lingzu, long time no see."

Hearing this unique title, Ling burst into laughter: "Long time no see."

He is indeed still the interesting newcomer.

"Let's get down to business, what's the current status of TE913?"

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, looking at the motionless scientific research ship outside the porthole. His mind twitched and he mumbled, "The state is very stable and peaceful."

zero:"……"

He glanced at Chen Fan with a strange expression, and then silently connected to the data transmission channel between the Varela and the TE913 research ship.

A large amount of dense data flashed across the holographic panel at a speed that the naked eye could not keep up with.

"The lock has been unlocked for you."

"Remember to submit the investigation report as soon as possible. Many people at the Academy of Sciences are paying attention to this research ship."

Lest Chen Fan say anything shocking again, Ling disappeared into the holographic projection after saying a word.

"The data transmission interface of the Academy of Sciences has been disconnected."

The familiar electronic synthesized sound sounded again:

"The signal of the main engine of the scientific research ship TE913 was detected."

"The universal data transfer protocol has been submitted and basic control permissions have been successfully obtained."

……

Three-dimensional universe.

Along with a strange fluctuation in time and space, two dazzling lights lit up in the originally extremely dark void of the universe.

The energy released by dimensionality reduction is scattered around in the form of photons.

The light gradually dimmed, and the hyperspace structure that was constantly twisting and changing shapes gradually became clear.

Eventually, these two projected structures from the fourth dimension turned into two starships of different sizes.

[The target starship docked successfully. 】

Looking at the prompt message flashing on the holographic interface, Chen Fan stood up from the driver's seat with a tense face and walked towards the docking bay located in the middle of the starship.

Just now, he had seen some scenes inside the scientific research ship through one's basic control authority.

condition……

It's several times more serious than expected!
The docking cabin of the TE913 scientific research ship.

Chen Fan and the others carefully followed the navigation information provided by Yi and walked towards the inside of the scientific research ship.

Although the size of the scientific research ship far exceeds that of the investigator starship, its internal space is not very spacious.

A lot of space is occupied by high-precision instruments.

Along the way, Chen Fan saw at least dozens of mechanical devices with unknown names and uses.

"It's so quiet..."

Isha Nuonuo's voice sounded in the team's communication channel.

In order to prevent accidents, Chen Fan and the others put on a full set of exoskeleton armor before entering the research ship. On the one hand, the exoskeleton armor can provide necessary combat and protective capabilities. On the other hand, the exoskeleton armor has perfect It has an independent circulatory system, and to a certain extent, it can even be used as a life-sustaining suit.

"It's really quiet."

Chen Fan nodded and responded: "If there are no errors in the report of the shipboard computer, there should be no living people on this scientific research ship."

Guided by the holographic navigation, he turned a corner.

Looking at the gate that opened automatically in front of him, Chen Fan took a deep breath and issued a reminder in the team's voice: "Pay attention, the crime scene is coming next."

"...be mentally prepared."

After giving some instructions, he took the lead and walked into the room behind the gate.

This is a fairly spacious laboratory.

The holographic interface in the laboratory has not yet been closed, and the complex space-time field model slowly floating on it indicates the identity of this laboratory: a space laboratory.

The ground was scattered with a large number of small instruments and random debris that Chen Fan could not name. Under the bright light of the imitation star lamp, the mottled dark brown blood stains on the ground looked particularly dazzling.

Chen Fan silently followed the blood stains and walked deeper into the laboratory.

After turning a corner, he suddenly stopped his heavy steps.

In front of me is a hell-like scene!

Chen Fan's pupils dilated slightly as he stared at the almost non-human flesh and blood on the ground.

This is an academician of the Academy of Sciences.

The white academician's robe was soaked with blood and turned almost dark brown.

Under the academician's robe, a piece of rotten flesh covered with various grotesque sarcomas and bloody flesh lay quietly on the ground.

On the ground in front of these rotten flesh is a series of complex words and symbols that are severely distorted and painted with human blood.

These symbols and words of unknown meaning...

It was the resonant text that Chen Fan had seen on Varela!
This is a resonance from broadcast civilization! ! !
