Chapter 197 Nanomachine Cluster!
Looking at the breathtaking and shocking scene in the holographic projection, Chen Fan's eyes suddenly widened.
This is...
"God's descent?!"
Isa, who was beside Chen Fan, blurted out subconsciously.
Yes, as Isa said, this is the unique scene that occurred when the Varela calendar was replaced.
Since leaving Varela City, Chen Fan's eyes have been completely attracted by artificial intelligence and intelligent machines, and he almost forgot the shocking scene of the earth-shattering sky.
But today, when the sky-falling image reappeared in front of him, Chen Fan instantly remembered the shock... and confusion at that time.
How did this happen?
Could it be that there is something... in the sky above Varela Star?
At the same time, Liu Hao's exclamation came from the side: "The sky changes!"
"The sky changes again!!"
Chen Fan's eyes moved slightly.
The sky changes, as the name suggests, is the same thing as the so-called God's descent in Varela City.
"What is the sky change? What is going on?"
Chen Fan turned his head and asked Liu Hao, who was shocked.
"Surfing changes..."
Commander Meng took over the conversation with a serious expression before Liu Hao could speak: "Since the full-scale war began more than two hundred years ago, there have been intermittent weather changes in the sky of Varela." "
When a weather change occurs, abnormal cracks, lightning and loud noises will appear in the sky. Sometimes, huge fireballs of unknown causes will appear. The duration of the anomaly may be long or short, and there is no pattern to follow." "
There is no fixed time for the occurrence of a weather change. We only know that this abnormal situation has occurred more and more frequently, from once every few decades to once every few years, and now... the last two weather changes were only separated by a few months."
Commander Meng pondered for a moment: "However, after such a long time, there is a saying within the resistance."
"As long as fish-scale disaster clouds appear in the sky, a weather change will occur soon."
"Although this statement has no scientific basis, but... so far, there have been super-large-scale fish-scale clouds before the weather changes with statistical data."
Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully.
If he remembered correctly, the formation of fish-scale clouds was caused by the sinking of cold air in the high altitude. In the past life, this kind of cloud often meant that the weather would be very good in the future.
Chen Fan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and a bold conjecture emerged.
Large-scale fish-scale clouds will appear before the sky changes. Does this indicate that there is some kind of mechanical equipment in the sky above Varila?
For an advanced civilization, this seems... not a difficult thing, right?
If the conjecture comes true, the sky change and the curse at an altitude of 40,000 kilometers seem to have a reasonable explanation!
He swallowed hard and suppressed this idea that was enough to shock everyone.
There is no definite evidence yet.
Seeing is believing. After completing the exploration of the Roca ruins, he drove the starship to the sky above 40,000 kilometers and saw it clearly.
Just as he was thinking this, accompanied by a familiar electronic synthesis sound, a yellow warning sign popped up in the holographic projection in front of him.
"Warning!"
"Abnormal fluctuations detected in the space near the cloud!"
"Warning! Unidentified flying objects observed in the cloud area!"
As the voice fell, the holographic projection image quickly enlarged and accurately fixed on an extremely thick cloud.
In the flashing golden lightning, a long black ribbon flew rapidly through the thick cloud.
The flying speed of the dark black ribbon was quite fast. In just a moment, it passed through a thick cloud and landed directly on a mountain covered with thick snow in the distance.
"...What is that?"
Chen Fan frowned and murmured subconsciously.
Judging from its flying posture that resembled floating, the dark black ribbon seemed to use anti-gravity technology - the detection drone and the self-propelled floating turret both had this flying posture.
"Could it be a weapon of the Roca civilization?"
A guess suddenly emerged in Chen Fan's mind, and he did not hesitate at all: "First, activate the shield system of the [Varilla]."
"The shipboard shield has been activated."
The moment the electronic synthesized sound sounded, Chen Fan's uneasiness was slightly relieved.
But the next second, the scene in the holographic projection made him suddenly widen his eyes!
Like countless fine dust, the black streamers suddenly dispersed the moment they fell on the mountain!
Then, the towering mountain that was originally covered with snow began to drop at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Almost at the same time, the black fine dust also began to grow rapidly, and the black fine "dust" poured down the mountain like an avalanche!
Wherever it passed, even the mountain itself disappeared completely!
They were "eating" the mountain! ! !
Looking at the rapidly growing black "dust" and the momentum that came together like a tide, a word suddenly emerged in Chen Fan's mind.
"Black tide..."
He murmured in a low voice.
"Nanoworm technology!" Yi's voice was also somewhat solemn. "In theory, mature nanoworms can devour all the matter around them and convert it into energy and raw materials for replicating themselves."
"Once out of the control of the manufacturer, it will expand itself indefinitely until the surrounding resources are completely exhausted."
"Due to its small size, it is quite difficult to completely eliminate the nanoworms."
"This is also a dangerous technology, but due to its high manufacturing difficulty, usually only civilizations above level 6 can produce real nanoworms, so the Human Union has classified it as a level II dangerous technology."
Chen Fan couldn't help but take a breath.
Damn, how come this broken planet is full of dangerous technology! !
"I remember!" Meng Zhixin's somewhat hoarse voice also came from the side, "Nanomechanical clusters, those crazy resistance researchers are going to make this thing!"
Fuck!
When Chen Fan heard this, he was numb.
It turned out that the unknown advanced civilization would do something new!
Dangerous technology is released for a limited time, right?
While everyone was talking, the black tide had swallowed up most of the towering mountain.
Perhaps because of its own size, the black tide instantly soared into the air and rushed straight to the starship docking place!
In the process of moving forward, these black tides are still constantly swallowing up the materials along the way to expand their own size!
The next second.
"Enemy attack!!!"
Meng Zhixin's roar exploded in the command center! !
...
Buzz...
the sound of the elevator echoed in my ears.
"Warning!"
"The [Varilla] has been attacked from outside."
The electronic synthesized voice has issued a warning to Chen Fan: "The current shield output power is 1%."
"Correction, the shield output power is 1.5%."
Looking at the numbers on the holographic projection that kept floating up and down and the light bulb on the top of the elevator box that flickered, Chen Fan's eyes flashed with anxiety.
Faster! Faster! !
"Ding!"
The elevator prompt sounded in the spacious elevator, and the heavy door that was originally closed slowly opened.
Before the door was fully opened, Chen Fan stepped out of the elevator wearing a mechanical exoskeleton armor and a deep blue individual protective force field.
Fine buzzing sounds and continuous collisions and explosions came from above.
Fortunately, the black tide's primary target of attack was the [Varilla] starship, and they did not focus on the resistance headquarters.
Otherwise...
they should have been attacked by these nanoworms as soon as they walked out of the elevator!
Looking at the tunnel entrance that was still safe not far away, Chen Fan was extremely glad that he had taken the easy way out earlier: the [Varilla] was parked right next to the tunnel entrance, and the starship's shield just covered it.
Chen Fan, who was wearing a protective force field, was the first to get out of the tunnel entrance, and Gao Yuan and Isa followed him with their weapons in hand.
As the concealment covering the tunnel entrance was removed, an extremely shocking scene instantly appeared in front of Chen Fan and the other two.
Endless black "dust" floated in the air and crashed into the pale golden protective barrier in front of them.
Fine and fragmented explosions were generated outside the pale golden protective barrier, and ripples continued to appear on the shield.
According to the data provided by Yi, the power of a single nanoworm hitting and exploding is at most equivalent to the power of a single plasma cannon. For the [Varilla], this is no different from tickling.
But it can't withstand its large quantity!
With the microscopic perspective provided by Yi, Chen Fan could clearly see the true face of these black "dusts" - each "dust" was a hideous nanoworm!
And such black dust...
could almost cover the entire sky!
Swish! !
Two deep purple beams shot out from the self-propelled floating turret suspended beside Chen Fan, and went straight into the black tide.
Isa and Gao Yuan did not hesitate at all, and pulled the trigger one after another, shooting blue plasma bullets into the black tide in front of them.
Boom! Boom! !
Endless explosions and flames lit up in the dense black tide, but the next moment, the swarming nanoworms directly devoured the explosions and flames!
Yes! Devoured!
Whether it was the high-temperature plasma generated by the explosion of the plasma bullet or the shattered "corpses" of the nanoworms, they all became food for the surrounding nanoworms!
"Fuck..."
Chen Fan cursed with a somewhat ugly expression.
This is not a disaster that can be solved by a single weapon at all!
"Let's go!"
Chen Fan stopped Isa and Gao Yuan from "feeding" the nanoworms with plasma bullets: "Go to the starship!"
"These things cannot be dealt with by conventional weapons!"
"One, prepare to release space shock waves, output power 1%!" Chen Fan rushed into the starship and issued an order at the same time, "Indiscriminate attack, get rid of the surrounding black tide first!"
Buzz...
As the voice fell, a slight tremor came from the deck under his feet.
The moment the hatch closed, the starship took off!
The next moment.
The calm space like a mirror was slightly distorted, and an invisible ripple that looked like rippling water waves spread out in all directions with the [Varilla] as the center!
