Alien Relic Hunter

Fortunately, I was wearing a helmet and neck protector... Ke Lan touched his head. With his current physical strength, if he was hit like this, even if there was no concussion, his cervical spine would probably suffer some pain.

In this memory world, fatal injuries are not terrible. Instead, injuries that make Ke Lan truly feel the pain that the Fool has endured but cannot die are more destructive.

Compared with the physical pain, the mental torture is even higher.

You're not hurt, are you? Lu Dan also walked over and pulled Ke Lan up.

No. Then with the faint light of the emergency light above his head, Ke Lan glanced at the thin wire in the team doctor's hand and muttered, I didn't expect you to have such ability.

Just some little tricks for making a living, not worth mentioning. The team doctor put away the wire, turned around and walked to the screen, trying to restart the shuttle's control system. However, she tried several times, but the machine never had any problem. reaction.

I tried it, but it didn't work. There was probably a problem with the power supply system when landing... Now the only place with power in the entire shuttle is probably the hibernation cabin. All independent power supply equipment is used there, and it is also equipped with I need an emergency battery, said Lu Dan.

The landing of the shuttle has been detected, and everyone else should have been awakened as well. Glasses Loli added, Let's go out after everyone has gathered.

Not long after, a group of advance team members also wearing protective clothing walked into the control room - there were a total of twenty-five people who set off from the Ark on this shuttle. During the nineteen-year journey, eight people died due to illness, Deaths occurred due to various reasons such as operating accidents. Counting Ke Lan and the other five, there were still 17 surviving advance team members.

Through a brief exchange, these people who had just woken up quickly understood the situation. After the attempt to repair the shuttle failed, everyone immediately made a decision-divided the personnel into two groups, one group explored the surrounding conditions of the landing site, and collected data along the way. Some usable resources; the other group of people stayed in place, dismantled the shuttle, gathered all valuable materials, and built a temporary camp on the spot.

Although this is the first time humans have set foot on Alpha Star, drones have already collected enough information before that - the temperature difference between day and night on Alpha Star is huge. If the camp cannot be set up in time, the temperature in the wilderness at night will be as low as Low temperatures of tens of degrees below zero are absolutely fatal to humans.

The protective clothing worn by the team members can indeed regulate temperature and isolate radiation and other toxic and harmful substances, but the problem is that the protective clothing consumes power. Once the power supply is exhausted, the protective clothing is completely a burden - there is no power. With an exoskeleton, it is simply impossible to rely on the wearer's own strength to move this piece of clothing weighing hundreds of kilograms.

Before setting off, the experts on the Ark decided on three energy supplement plans - one based on solar power generation, one based on geothermal power generation, and the last one based on kinetic energy power generation. But under the current situation, the first two plans are basically useless: the entire Alpha Star is covered by thick radiation clouds, and the sunlight that can reach the ground through the clouds is very thin. The solar power generation efficiency is probably only 10 to 20% of the expected value. Unable to meet the daily needs of the advance team.

As for geothermal power generation, unless the landing site is in a volcanic crater or some place with frequent geological activities, otherwise, if they want to use geothermal energy, the advance team must first drill a geothermal well on the ground that does not know how deep it needs to be... However, in areas such as volcanic craters or other areas that can obtain shallow geothermal heat, their own safety cannot be guaranteed and are not a suitable location for camping.

The most reliable, but also the most unstable, is the third solution: kinetic energy generation.

There are many types of kinetic energy power generation, one is relying on wind power and hydraulic power, and the other is relying on human power. There is no river near the landing site, and there is no available hydraulic power. The human energy conversion ratio is too low, and we don’t consider it. The only thing left is wind power generation. ——Fortunately, in the open wilderness area, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and hot and cold air flows frequently, so the feasibility of wind power generation is still very high.

We carry six sets of kinetic energy generators, but the folding windmills are too large, so we only have two sets. Luodan, a mechanic, said to everyone, But the outer shell of the shuttle can be made into a simple windmill, and the laser We also have equipment such as cutting machines, and the processing will not be too difficult. The electricity provided by the six windmills should be enough for the daily consumption of the camp.

But the biggest problem is food. A man with a square face said, In nineteen years, there is not much food left on the shuttle. Now that everyone is awake, the remaining Food can only last for two months at most... Moreover, this does not take into account that exploratory behavior will greatly increase the body's demand for calories... According to pessimistic estimates, the remaining food may only be enough for one month.

This Chinese-character face is the captain of another rotating team. The original commander of the advance team passed away due to a hidden disease in the sixth year after embarking on the journey. According to the advice from Ark, the remaining four rotating team captains were formed. A command team was formed to jointly manage this advance team.

We are all on Alpha Planet. Of course, our food problem must be solved by this planet. There is an old saying in China, isn't it called 'eat the mountain if you rely on the mountain, and eat the water if you rely on the water'... If this planet can't even support seventeen of us If we can't feed them, how can we meet Ark's colonial needs? Lu Dan continued.

You put it lightly. The speaker was a blond white woman with the same short hair as the man. She was also one of the four rotating team captains. In a month, even if the land here is suitable for farming, It's too late to harvest enough crops... Then we have only one way to get food, hunting like primitive people... But I think you all know about the indigenous creatures on this planet. They are far more powerful than the beasts on the earth. Dangerous and more aggressive. Moreover, once hunting leads to revenge from indigenous creatures, how long do you think our temporary camp can hold on under the siege of the herd?

Perhaps we can look for some indigenous crops from Planet Alpha to use as food rations. Braised Egg curled his lips, You were wrong about one thing. In addition to hunting, the way primitive people obtained food was also gathering.

If I remember correctly, the location where we landed is in the desert area marked as area B17, right? In this area, in my impression, the drone has not found any edible crops at all. The blond hair The woman frowned and said, Moreover, the terrain here is flat and there is no danger. You can find camps built on flat ground very far away... My suggestion is to use this month to find a place that is rich in resources, easy to defend and difficult to defend. Camp where you attack, not where you are.

Camping on the spot is the plan we decided just now. In our current state, we are simply unable to make a long journey. Guozilian shook his head and said, Moreover, we are still not sure whether there are any survivors of the Alpha civilization left in this planet. On the planet, if we mistakenly enter their territory, have you ever thought about what would happen?
