Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

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

Li Meng grabbed Erusa's hand and pulled her toward the recliner.

After returning to the recliner and lying down, Erusa took her into Li Meng's arms obediently, and snuggled into Li Meng's arms.

The long tail swung back and forth.

In Li Meng's arms, Erusa whispered: "Master, Qiwu Star is the home planet of the El Tribe after all. Although it has not returned for tens of thousands of years, the El Tribe has never forgotten this place. One day, there will be curious people The El Tribe wants to come back and take a look at their home planet. When they find that humans occupy this place, they will realize that the threat of the snake-winged king beast is no longer there, and there will be a wave of people returning to their home star within the El Tribe. At this time, the battle between the El tribe and humans may be inevitable.”

When he learned that Qi Wuxing was the home planet of the El tribe, Li Meng thought of this day.

But there is nothing that can be done about it.

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

The environment of other habitable planets is too harsh.

In addition to being able to breathe, it is simply not suitable for human survival.

Because there is no choice, even if Qiwu Star is the home planet of the four empires, humans still have to occupy it.

Even if we have to migrate in the future, that is still a matter of the future.

Humanity now needs a period of peaceful development and a place to stay.

"Let's talk about it then. No matter how difficult the problem is, there is always a solution."

It is important to prepare for a rainy day, but without the basis for solving the problem, nothing can be done.

At the moment, humans can only take one step at a time.

Looking slightly sideways, Li Meng looked at Qi Wuxing outside the window.

Calculating the time, the squadron heading to the Dark Territory should be arriving soon.

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

Could it be that something unexpected happened?

No, it won't.

The Astropath's node is still there, indicating that the fleet is still sailing in the subspace.

It seems that there was a subspace storm and the navigation time was greatly increased.

——

The starry sky is endless, dark, cold and dead.

Deep in the distant starry sky.

In some dark universe.

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

Purple-red vortexes appeared strangely one after another.

Large and small dark 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 composed of six Cobra destroyers, three Firestorm-class escorts, and one Moon-class cruiser.

In the flagship, on the bridge.

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

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

After standing up, Maren came to the window and looked at the familiar starry sky outside.

"Where are we?" Mullen asked.

"In an unknown star system, the auspicious display is calm and no aircraft has been detected."

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

Habitable planet?

Maren was delighted.

They must be so lucky.

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

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

Most of the habitable planets suitable for carbon-based life forms have been modified.

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

With a wave of his hand, Malen said: "The fleet will head 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 livable planet.

This made Mullen a little unbelievable.

When did he become so lucky?

"Also, inform the king of the news here, saying that we have arrived, found a celestial body similar to a habitable planet, and are conducting the first phase of exploration work."

Outside, following Mullen's order.

The engines at the rear of each ship sprayed out a long stream of white smoke.

Under the powerful thrust, the fleet continued to accelerate and flew deep into 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 trace of surprise flashed in Maren's eyes.

It's so beautiful and definitely a habitable planet.

You can see oceans, forests, mountains, and lakes from above.

The presence of green vegetation is enough to prove that it is a habitable planet.

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

"Carry out the first phase of exploration immediately, let the "V3" transport boat set off, and establish a scientific research base on the planet."

It's a strange, habitable planet, and it takes a lot of work to occupy it.

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

Five "V3" transport boats flew out one after another and headed towards the surface of the planet.

After a while, it broke into the atmosphere.

For a moment, looking from the planet's ground to the sky, five huge fireballs appeared in the sky.

Looking higher into the sky, nine small ship hulls can be seen.

It lasted for more than twenty seconds before the flames dissipated.

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

That's a contrail cloud.

"Landing team, how is the air quality?"

In 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, Mullen breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't expect this mission to be so smooth.

I found a great new home so quickly.

The environment of this planet is simply perfect.

The continent occupies two-thirds of the total area, and the ocean area is only one percent.

"Continue the mission, analyze the vegetation, water, rocks and soil composition on the surface of the planet."

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

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

He had to collect data on this planet.

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

Everything must be analyzed, and none of them can be left out.

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

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

Every step cannot be left out.

One carelessness, one mistake, often results in a large number of unnecessary casualties.

The roar of the engine resounded through the heavens and earth.

Five "V3" transport boats swooped down from the clouds.

The powerful power caused a vortex in the clouds behind, stirring up a large cloud of fog.

Five "V3 transport boats" flew at low altitude over a mountain range.

Passing over the top of the mountain, a visible air current was raised.
