Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 1002 The Ancient Battlefield
This is a long-dead star system. Although it has not been completely destroyed, all the planets in the star system, including the main sequence star, have "dead" millions of years ago, that is, they have lost the vitality of celestial bodies.Fortunately, the planet that Skyfire Eagle guarded at the beginning is still there.

In fact, this is a very ordinary star system.

A main-sequence star is a third-generation star, that is, in its third life cycle before being destroyed.Although it was a huge star in the distant past, after the first two life cycles, especially the two big bangs, a large amount of matter was thrown out.Because the matter that survives and reassembles is very limited, in the third life cycle, the main sequence star degenerates into a yellow dwarf with a much lower mass.Of course, it was also because of the two big bangs that a large amount of matter escaped from the main-sequence star, and those that could not escape the gravitational bondage of the main-sequence star became celestial bodies in the star system.More importantly, the high temperature and pressure generated by these two big explosions transformed a large number of light elements into heavy elements, which eventually became mineral resources stored in various celestial bodies.

It's just that this star system is too young.

While its first two life cycles, especially the second, lasted billions of years, the third has just begun.At least for this star system that can exist stably for tens of billions of years, the [-] million years after its birth can only be regarded as the beginning of life.In this short period of [-] million years, although the matter scattered in the star system has aggregated together and become planets, almost all planets are in the nascent stage, that is, geological activities are very frequent, even the most adaptable silicon Beasts cannot survive either.It is also true that for a long period of time, there was no life in this star system, and it was not taken seriously.

It can be said that if it is not exactly at the junction of Wanjiaolong and Tianhuoying, and there is no more suitable star system nearby, this star system will definitely not be selected by Tianhuoying.In fact, only the Skyfire Eagle can survive here, that is, the Skyfire Eagle has the superpower to control internal energy, and can survive in higher temperatures.If it were any other silicon beast, I'm afraid they wouldn't come here to set up camp at all.

Of course, this was millions of years ago.

Now, the entire star system is dead.Because of the loss of too much mass, the main sequence star has stopped burning, that is, there is not enough mass to generate strong pressure to maintain the continuous nuclear fusion inside, and it collapses into a star without light, which may be able to exist forever until the destruction of the universe The "Death Star".As for other celestial bodies in the star system, because they lost the gravitational bondage of the main sequence stars, most of the outer celestial bodies have escaped from the star system and become lone stars wandering around in the universe. of light and heat, enveloped in darkness.If there is no external influence, these worlds can exist for billions, even tens of billions of years, and will not change at all, because these worlds are extremely cold, with the surface close to absolute zero.

Apparently, no living beings have visited the place in the past few million years.

As for the planet chosen by the Skyfire Hawk and built a military fortress on it, the situation is similar, and it can even be said to be worse.

This planet has long been broken, and part of it, accounting for about one-tenth of the total number of planets, has been lost.It's just that the most deadly loss is inside the planet, that is, the planet loses its core, and thus loses most of its mass, and it is no longer possible to recover the broken parts by its own gravity.

It's just that the planet is just shattered, not completely collapsed.

The main reason is that this planet already has a lot of mass, even if it loses its core, the remaining mass can generate a strong enough gravitational force.

More importantly, the outer shell of the planet is basically intact.

When he came near the planet, Yang Yi first saw the fortress, which was a ruined wall to be precise.

Obviously, that is the fortress of the Skyfire Hawk, the place where the Skyfire Hawk fought for the last time.

Because it is inherently able to control internal energy and create extremely high temperatures, the Skyfire Eagle will not build military fortresses through construction, but use local materials.To be precise, it actually uses natural terrain to construct solid facilities by melting rocks.

In fact, the Skyfire Eagle lives in a natural cave, not much different from other silicon beasts.It's just that the caves of the Skyfire Hawk are generally on the cliffs, that is, places that are difficult for other silicon beasts to reach.The key is that the Skyfire Eagle can fly, and its daily activities are not restricted by terrain.

Because it was destroyed, the atmosphere on the planet disappeared millions of years ago.

In fact, this is a good thing.

Without an atmosphere, there is no weathering problem, and the main sequence star is dead, so there is no problem of being destroyed by stellar storms, and the low temperature is close to absolute zero, so as long as it is not hit by the occasional meteorite, the planet will Objects on the surface can exist for a long time without much change.Apparently, the ruined fort still looks the same as it did millions of years ago.

Not just the fortress, but also the corpses of some Skyfire Hawks.

It's just that if you don't look carefully, you won't find it at all.

Don't forget, the Skyfire Eagle is also a silicon beast. Although it is a royal silicon beast, its body structure is not fundamentally different from ordinary silicon beasts, that is, the Skyfire Eagle's body is still made of silicide.In other words, after death, the Skyfire Eagle's body would solidify into rock due to the drop in temperature.

Inside and outside the fortress, there were corpses of Skyfire Eagles everywhere, and many of them were mutilated.

Obviously, these days the Fire Eagles have all died tragically in battle, and even when they died in battle, they faced powerful enemies.Unfortunately, the enemy is too strong.Even if thousands of Skyfire Eagles were not afraid of death and fought bravely to the last moment, they still could not change the outcome of this battle.

Yang Yi did not enter the fort, but walked outside the fort.

The Dragon God Queen was very puzzled, but she still followed.In her opinion, if the holy relic of the Skyfire Eagle is hidden here, it must be inside the fortress.

After walking for a while, Yang Yi stopped.

"What did you find?"

"It should be the God Emperor who killed these Sky Fire Eagles," Yang Yi let out a long breath before saying, "Besides, the God Emperor should have stood here at that time, and killed all the Sky Fire Eagles in front with just one move. Although the Sky Fire Eagles They are royal silicon beasts, and there are many of them, but they can't even stop the God Emperor's move."

The Queen of the Dragon God froze for a moment, and only looked back after noticing Yang Yi's gaze.

After just one glance, the Dragon God Queen understood.

Behind them, there are all the corpses of the Skyfire Hawk, and all the corpses are facing where they are standing, and all of them are fighting.

"Obviously, even millions of years ago, the God Emperor was extremely powerful, maybe not worse than now." Yang Yi glanced at the Dragon God Queen before saying, "You know, the individual strength of the Skyfire Eagle is no better than that of other royal silicon beasts. Poor. With so many Skyfire Eagles, even I can’t guarantee to kill them all with one move. The God Emperor can do it, and if you look carefully, those Skyfire Eagles who died in battle don’t even have a chance to make a move.”

"So what? The God Emperor is already very powerful, otherwise we wouldn't have come here to find a way to defeat him."

Yang Yi forced a smile and said, "That's true, but we have to clearly realize that even if we find a way, we may not be able to defeat the Emperor smoothly."

"In any case, we must first find the holy object of the Skyfire Eagle."

Yang Yi nodded, said nothing more, and headed towards the fort.

The Dragon God Empress sighed and followed immediately.In fact, she knew Yang Yi's thoughts very well.After coming to this ancient battlefield, Yang Yi was obviously afraid of the God Emperor's strength, and even became less confident because of it.But now, what is needed is self-confidence.If you don't even have self-confidence, then even if you find the holy relic of Skyfire Eagle, you may not be able to use it, let alone defeat the Emperor.

Of course, the Dragon God Queen also knew that Yang Yi would not be discouraged by this, because Yang Yi was a person who would not admit defeat.

Even if the emperor is stronger than they knew, it can only stimulate Yang Yi's fighting spirit and make Yang Yi try his best to find a way to make himself stronger.

Not long after, the two came to the fortress.

After discovering the passage leading directly to the center of the earth, Yang Yi and the Dragon God Queen were very surprised, but then they all thought of the origin of this passage.

The two wereted no time inside the fort, and there was nothing to explore.

Just like the outside, there are corpses of Skyfire Eagles everywhere inside the fortress, and they were all killed by the enemy during the battle.All the Skyfire Eagles who died in battle were facing the same spot, to be precise, a route.It was obvious that the Firehawk was holding back that formidable enemy these days, and the direction of the enemy's advance was the entrance of that passage.

Coming to the top of the passage, Yang Yi and the Dragon God Queen immediately affirmed the judgment they made before.

This passage goes directly to the center of the earth, but the center of the earth no longer exists.

"Go in?"

Yang Yi nodded slightly, and said, "Don't worry, we're here anyway. Don't you think this passage is a bit strange?"

"Strange?"

"Obviously, when the God Emperor came in, the Skyfire Hawks in the fortress were all engaged in the battle, just to prevent him from going here. That is to say, when the God Emperor arrived, this passage already existed and was very important. Otherwise, those skyfire eagles would not fight to the last moment."

"You mean..."

"This passage is the masterpiece of the Skyfire Hawk, and has nothing to do with the God Emperor. Perhaps, the God Emperor himself has something to do with this passage."

The Dragon God Queen frowned, obviously not understanding what Yang Yi meant.

"The key point is, why did the Skyfire Eagle create a passage directly to the center of the earth? Obviously, this passage is not used to deal with the enemy, and it is not helpful in defending the planet. On the contrary, it will cause disasters and even lead to the destruction of the planet. If there is no particularly important purpose, Skyfire Hawk will not do such a thing."

"And perish with the enemy?"

"Destroy the enemy by destroying the planet? If you are dealing with only the army of silicon demons, this trick will work, but it is obviously impossible to deal with the Emperor."

The Queen of the Dragon God froze for a moment, and then suddenly understood what Yang Yi meant.
