Chapter 250
2042.10
Zhao Zijie and Gao Yang sat quietly in the Luan Bird Starship.
Outside the porthole, there is peace.
The sun shines on the Titan ocean, and the tiny waves reflect the light of the stars.
In the distance, several Xuanniao starships kept flying low, trying to lure some jellyfish with their plasma tail flames.
This was the last time they were on duty, and it was also the last few days that humans spent on Titan.
In the past two years, the [Taotie] in orbited several times between Mars and Titan, successfully transporting a large amount of hydrocarbons and organic matter.
A few days ago, Mars sent an overdistance communication to Zhao Zijie and the others.
The Heavenly Court Plan has been successfully completed as planned, and all humans in Mars City have begun to board the plane.
This means that humans have completed all starship manufacturing projects and material reserve plans.
What they face next is a distant star journey that lasts 4.22 light years!
"Call the phoenix, this is the c3 area."
A familiar voice came from the radio communication device.
Zhao Zijie withdrew his gaze from the porthole and pressed the communication button calmly.
"This is a phoenix, please speak c3."
A response came immediately from the communication equipment.
"We have been hovering for more than 5 days and we have not found any signs of jellyfish activity."
“Apply for a return flight!”
Hearing this, Zhao Zijie was silent for a while.
“Return is allowed.”
"c3, you can come back."
Communication is cut off.
Zhao Zijie reached out and gently stroked the holographic image in front of him, and made a big fork on the sea map marked with c3.
"One area was ruled out."
Looking at the holographic image in front of him, he murmured softly: "There are only eight sea areas left that have not been investigated."
Although the hunting plan can only be carried out at high tide at night, the two-year continuous hunting has completely exhausted the resources of the Kraken-Mare Sea. In recent months, the number of jellyfish they have hunted has been decreasing.
One night on Titan, the fifty Xuannv II ships worked hard for eight days, but only attracted hundreds of jellyfish.
This was an unimaginable scenario before.
Therefore, five days ago, in the early morning on Titan, Lu Yongchang issued the last order.
After searching for five consecutive days, if no new signs of jellyfish are found, the hunting plan will be completed.
"Zijie, do you think there are jellyfish in the sea?" Gao Yang's inquiry came from the side.
Zhao Zijie shrugged and said helplessly: "How do I know?"
"No one can tell this thing."
"Unless you drain the waters of the Kraken-Mare Sea, you can get a definite answer."
"But, there is one thing I can be sure of."
Speaking of this, Zhao Zijie sighed long: "Even if some jellyfish survive and the population is too small, they will inevitably go to the road to extinction."
"Unless, they are reproductive."
Gao Yang's eyes were filled with doubts: "Are there no jellyfish in the rest of Titan?"
Zhao Zijie rolled his eyes at Gao Yang angrily: "I really don't know how you passed those basic courses at that time..."
"For two years, haven't you noticed that we have been catching jellyfish around the Kraken-Mare Sea?"
Gao Yang smiled wryly, reached out and scratched the back of his head and said, "I found out, but I didn't think much about it..."
Zhao Zijie became more and more speechless. He shook his head powerlessly and explained patiently.
"Based on previous test results, the Kraken-Marehai accounts for 80% of Titan's liquid."
"But the discovery of the inland sea has greatly increased this proportion."
“Based on the assessment from zero two years ago, Kraken-Marehei accounts for more than 95% of Titan’s liquid.”
"Not mentioning the depth and size of the other oceans on Titan, the inland sea and ice volcano alone are not the structures that Titan can have."
While speaking, several return applications were lit up again in the holographic image.
Zhao Zijie silently reached out and dropped the corresponding sea area.
When the last Xuannv II ship sent a return application, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go."
He stood up from the captain's seat and stretched: "Our mission is completed."
"It's time to meet with [Heavenly Court]."
...
A [Taotie] Nebula-class material reserve ship stayed quietly on the orbit of Titan.
It was waiting for the remaining fifty starship pilots on Titan.
In the following time, those drivers will take it from Saturn to Jupiter.
At the same time, the human fleet [Heavenly] will also travel from Mars to Jupiter.
The two will converge in Jupiter's orbit.
And rely on Jupiter's huge body to avoid the huge solar storm caused by Venus' sun fall two months later!
As for the outdated phoenix starship?
Naturally, it was left on Titan as a proof that humans had come.
This is also a helpless move.
Compared with nebula-class starships, the phoenix bird flies too slowly.
...
A few days later, by the sea of Kraken-Mare, fifty Hall thrusters at the bottom of the Xuannv II sprayed out faint blue flames at the same time.
Under its powerful thrust, these Xuannv IIs slowly took off.
Then, they turned around, pulled out a graceful arc, and flew towards the sky.
On the beach by the sea, a starship of phoenix with various supplies was quietly parked.
Next to the starship, a huge jellyfish killing device stands among the shattered waves.
Under the faint sunlight, two artificial objects seem to be telling the crimes committed by humans in the past two years.
...
Time flies fast.
After two Titan days and nights, a group of pale yellow jellyfish suddenly appeared by the sea.
Unlike the original jellyfish, the size of these jellyfish has been significantly reduced.
They stayed on the undulating methane sea, with their heads facing the phoenix starship and killing device on the beach, as if they were staring at the two huge artificial objects.
Suddenly, one of the jellyfish swung its body and swam towards the beach.
Its behavior obviously attracted the attention of the rest of the jellyfish.
Under a riot, a group of jellyfish hesitated to follow the first jellyfish and swam towards the beach together.
After several hours of "hard trek", the group of jellyfish finally arrived at the killing device and the phoenix starship.
Then, an amazing scene happened.
These dozens of jellyfish were actually arranged in a circle, "danced" their round body on the beach!
It looks like a sacrificial activity of human beings.
A few hours later, the group of jellyfish lined up in an orderly manner and moved towards the Kraken-Mare Sea again.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
Contrary to everyone's cognition, these new jellyfish actually have consciousness!
If Zhao Zijie saw this scene, he would definitely sigh!
‘It is so terrifying to say that the Dharma follows!’
