Chapter 269: Tens of billions of human beings entangled like snakes (please subscribe)

The fleet moved towards the planet in the center of the vortex. There were some planets and giant structures blocking the channel along the way. Zhang Han immediately ordered a bombing to open the way.

The Judgment Blade opened fire first, followed by the Alliance, the Emperor's Works, the Forgiveness and other heavy battleships also opened fire.

Dense light spears and nova cannonballs ejected using giant force fields (when they explode, they will burst into bright light, like a star exploding, so they are named nova cannonballs), as well as various giant missiles. Launched.

They crossed the void, leaving bright tracks, and finally hit those weird structures and meteorites in the void.

Continuous explosions lit up in the void, and the bright light erupted illuminated the entire void, opening up a crack stretching for tens of thousands of kilometers in the strange whirlpool.

Subsequently, the fleet followed the open road to the planet located in the center of the vortex. This journey was simple because there were no enemies in the void. However, the mental pressure made everyone look very solemn. The technicians searched the galaxy non-stop, scanned the structure to obtain data, and analyzed the situation of the galaxy.

Because the things here are beyond their imagination. If there are some flesh and blood or space-time cracks, they can understand it, but now the entire galaxy has turned into a whirlpool, and even the things inside have been twisted into whirlpools.

These external things all show that the planet located at the core of the vortex has some strange power that cannot be understood.

"Is there anything on that planet?" Zhang Han asked Ding Yi, the technical chief engineer responsible for building the data model.

Ding Yi turned his head, then shook his head, "Scanning is in progress. The scan data is very weird. No matter what technology is used, the scanned cross section of the entire planet appears as a vortex. Only by directly capturing images with optical equipment can we see what the planet looks like. "

After receiving such an answer, Zhang Han also looked solemn. He walked back and forth in his position several times, and finally stood in front of the observation window. His eyes became solemn. He stared at those weird giant structures, trying to understand them. I found something that might be related to the truth, but found nothing.

There are no enemies or monsters, only weird spirals filling every corner of this galaxy. What do they represent?

A few hours passed quickly, and the fleet followed the open road and arrived near the planet. On the way, it also urgently avoided the stars rotating around the planet to prevent the fleet from directly hitting it.

Under the law of universal gravitation, the planet should move around the star, but now it is the star that rotates around the planet.

This galaxy represents the breakdown of reason and order, where common sense is subverted and the laws of physics are trampled upon.

All scanning systems owned by the fleet have been turned on to detect the situation in the galaxy. They are constantly scanning everything nearby, and the combat readiness of each ship has been raised to the highest level.

Psykers and demon hunters were summoned to form special patrols, and even fighter planes were pulled out of the hangar, ready to take off at any time.

However, no enemy appeared, and the Third Expeditionary Fleet traveled alone across the entire galaxy and arrived at the center of the vortex.

"Human life signal detected, but this signal is a bit strange." Ding Yi's voice broke the dull atmosphere on the bridge, Zhang Han looked at him, "Let me take a look."

A holographic projection appeared on the bridge, and the beam of light that pulsed like static electricity outlined the landscape of the planet. It was very intuitive to see that the entire planet had been twisted into a vortex.

The projection shows a huge bottomless pit. The outermost part of the pit is surrounded by spiral mountains, while the innermost part is spiral-shaped and continues to extend downward.

"Are you sure there are living people in such a place?" Zhang Han looked at Ding Yi, whose words made him a little suspicious.

"It is indeed a human life signal. You can ask Qiqi about this." Ding Yi pointed a mechanical finger at Qiqi formed by the projection.

Zhang Han looked over and Qiqi nodded, agreeing with Ding Yi's words, "We have indeed found human life signals, but there are some differences. Maybe the target has been corrupted or something else."

"Perform the purification procedure, legion commander." William looked at Zhang Han and asked, "Those people may have lost the chance of redemption. Letting them return to nothingness is a good thing for everyone."

"It's just a possibility. We can't use possibilities to decide the fate of others." Zhang Han interrupted William, "The God Emperor gave us power to protect mankind. If we are afraid of losses and give up our responsibilities, it is better to let us go Use it as a display in the museum. I will inform all the troops to prepare for battle. I will land on the surface to see what is going on with those humans!! If they can no longer be redeemed, then we will grant them purification. If there is still one person worthy If he is saved, then I will bring him out.”

No one can disobey Zhang Han's orders, and William can only give up his plan to use extinction purification on the entire planet.

The fleet surrounded the entire planet, aiming its huge array of artillery and light spears at the mutated planet, ready to fire at any time.

Just give it a command and it will vanish in the wrath of mankind. But in order to explore possible salvation, Zhang Han led the soldiers of the Third Expedition to carry out the landing procedure. They were going to search for a human life signal to see if they could save anything.

The roaring gunboats, escorted by fighter planes, arrived on the ground and dropped the heavily armed legionnaires onto a relatively flat platform in the whirlpool pit.

Legion soldiers established a cordon nearby and deployed heavy firepower, but there were still no enemies on the ground. There was a ruined hive near the whirlpool.

Zhang Han decided to investigate the situation in the hive first and see if he could find any clues.

Soon, they entered the hive city, conducted detection according to standard procedures, and dispatched technicians for analysis.

However, they soon discovered that the hive had also been tainted by forces affecting the entire galaxy, and its majestic structures were twisted into spirals.

No matter how tall the building is, it all ends in the same fate, being completely twisted into a spiral.

Everything in the hive was dilapidated. The twisted buildings tore apart the cables and steel bars buried in the concrete, causing all machinery to stop running. Even the machinery itself was twisted.

There are still some bones left in the building. Perhaps due to changes in the environment, these bones have been preserved for a long time without turning into soil or being eroded by wind and frost.

"Something terrible happened here." Abdi, a historian, took photos of the Twisted Hive with the help of his assistant Mili.

Even after participating in the Great Crusade for so long, Abdi was still shocked by what he saw, the unparalleled blasphemy poisoning the world.

How many evil things are hidden in the universe that humans don't understand, and how many terrible things are hidden in the dark void.

"The universe is like a basket full of monsters, and human beings are like a boy who was bitten all over his body just a few steps out of the cradle. This boy either dies or learns the survival rules of this dark forest."

Abdi remembered the poem of a poet from the expeditionary force, who wrote this poem after witnessing the Battle of Carapos.

I have to say, this sentence is really appropriate.

Redes and several legionnaires were by his side, performing the task of protecting him.

"Everyone can see that," Redes said casually, "Don't be so sentimental, scholar."

"Yes, everyone can see it, but it must be recorded. Otherwise, after this place is purified, people will forget these terrible things." Abdi also used a high-resolution camera to capture some relevant footage. , and then asked Redes to cooperate in taking some artistic photos with a war atmosphere.

<divclass="contentadv">As a historian, Abdi has high professionalism and ideological awareness. The truth of history is important, but inspiring future generations is equally important.

Even if the glorious edifice of the Galactic Empire collapses one day, he hopes that mankind can find hope from the history books he compiled and continue to move forward firmly.

Zhang Han was a little further away from Abdi. He was scanning an obviously deformed human skeleton. The skeleton scanned by the built-in control core automatically restored it to its original appearance.

The body of the deceased after recovery was very strange, as if it had been elongated, and looked strange. However, there were no obvious changes in the body's genes, and it was still in the human category.

"What on earth happened here!!" Zhang Han looked around and looked at the dilapidated buildings. There were no enemies and no goods. There were only large and small spirals. Even the flying smoke was spiral-shaped.

Everything here is full of mystery, no one knows what exactly happened.

"Perhaps you can enter the deep pit." Ding Yi's voice sounded in the communication. "It has been determined that the life signal comes from the deep pit. There is another thing that needs to be reported to you. The scan found that inside the orbiting space station surrounding the planet, there are A space station is still running at low power, maybe there is something recorded there, I have sent it over to check it, and the results will be available soon."

"I will take people down to the deep pit to take a look. If there are any results at the space station, let me know immediately." Zhang Han said.

"Understood." After replying, Ding Yi closed the communication.

The sound of footsteps was heard. Zhang Han, who had just finished the call, turned around and found Qian Lai and Titus walking from the side.

"Did you find anything?" Zhang Han asked.

Qian Lai was the first to speak, and the news he brought could be considered bad news.

"Sorry, no. The drones sent out scanned the entire hive and couldn't find a single living person. Also, all the electronic equipment was broken. No matter how advanced it was, it was the same. They were all burned. It seems that it has been attacked by some kind of strong magnetic pulse. There may be some mechanical equipment that can still be used, but the number of those things is very rare in the Human Alliance society. It is hard to find, and even if we find it, we may not want it. Information."

"Then don't look for it."

"I've checked it." Theus's face looked a little ugly. "All the drones lost contact after entering a thousand meters underground. This was the case for several drones in a row."

Zhang Han was silent for a moment after hearing Titus' words before speaking, "It seems that the answer lies deep in the pit. Be prepared, let's enter the pit."

Qian Lai and Titus looked at each other, then nodded, expressing their support for the proposal.

After checking the nest city, there were no clues. Zhang Han and his party had to focus on the strange and bottomless pit. Perhaps all the answers were hidden in the pit.

Standing on the edge of the vortex, you can feel the hugeness of the vortex firsthand. It is circular in shape, with a measured diameter of three hundred kilometers, showing a perfect circle. The spiral downward road is embedded in the rock wall of the deep pit. , the proportions and intervals between them were measured and found to be equal, and it was a perfect spiral.

"There should be something down here that can interfere with electronic equipment, and it is very powerful. We can't go down in a gunboat. If there is a slight accident, we will crash directly and we can only walk. One more thing, from now on, the anti-electron impact type will be enabled. We will no longer use communicators and rely on voice to transmit commands. Pay attention to your electronic devices and give up immediately if they are interfered with."

Zhang Han issued an order to prepare for possible electromagnetic attacks by the enemy, reduce the weight of the electronic system of the power armor, open the isolation barrier, spray reflective coating on the armor, and be prepared to give up electronic equipment.

Although the empire's technology is very advanced, it is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Every accident on the battlefield has a bloody price, and caution is always the only motto for survival on the battlefield.

After being prepared, they stepped forward and walked down the spiral road. The speed was not fast, because there were still mortal scholars like Abdi to take care of.

There are corpses on both sides of the road, and there are quite a lot of them. They are not only humans, but also other creatures. Some are even alien creatures that arrived in this galaxy after humans were in crisis. They also died here.

From the direction in which the bones fell and where they were scattered, it was clear that they had suffered corruption and were dominated by invisible forces, driving them into the pit.

"It's so weird."

When they first met, Abdi was still taking photos and exclaiming in a low voice. But the deeper he went, the more bones he saw, and Abdi fell into silence.

He took so many photos like this that he didn't even need to take any more, because there were so many bones here, and no one knew how many souls had died tragically.

When crossing a thousand-meter depth, the exploration team detected intermittent strong electromagnetic pulses. It was obvious that the previous drone was shot down by such strong electromagnetic pulses.

Strong electromagnetic pulses will produce strong temporary voltages and currents in electronic systems, electronic equipment, and communication systems, causing damage and instantaneous interference.

Zhang Han and others who were prepared in advance were not disturbed. The isolation barrier and reflective coating weakened the strong electromagnetic pulse, making it unable to destroy the electronic system in the power armor.

The group of them went deep all the way smoothly, without encountering any enemies on the way. There were only a large number of corpses. They went all the way to a depth of 20 to 30 kilometers from the ground before reaching the bottom of the pit, where there was a tunnel large enough to accommodate several construction machinery. A giant passageway for traffic.

The electronic equipment used to detect human life signals detected a strong life signal, which came from the other side of the channel.

Zhang Han and others walked along the passage. After walking for more than ten minutes, they saw a bright white light on one side of the passage, illuminating the other end of the passage.

"Be prepared to fight." Zhang Han said.

They walked over and found a huge space, and witnessed the origin of the curse of the entire galaxy.

A huge black vortex floated on the ball of light, emitting a strange white light.

It is like breathing, expanding and then contracting every once in a while, during which it also releases strong electromagnetic pulses.

Under the black vortex, there were densely packed, countless humans and other creatures entangled together, forming a huge vortex of flesh and blood.

None of them died, but merged and entangled with each other, turning into a twisted and indescribable monster.
