I have a shelter in the last days

Chapter 252 Safety First!
"The outside structure can be scanned by the high-power scanning equipment of the Iron Nail, and we still have to find a way to get in." Zhuo Fan walked a few hundred meters along the wall and found nothing worth studying around here.

"I'm just a chef. I'm not good at this kind of mechanical things... Hey, what is this?" Gao Qiu was still complaining, and suddenly he found a symmetrical hexagon of about 5 square meters on the wall in front of him. groove.

"It looks like a door." Zhuo Fan activated the jet power unit of the spacesuit and rushed over to check it carefully. After tossing for a long time, he had no other gain except that it was a door. "Evans, come and see if you can open it." ?”

"There is another dense and brittle material with low hardness inside the recessed gap. If you consider the long-term chemical changes, it may be an elastic material similar to rubber, which is probably used to fill the gap." Evans After scanning around the suspected hatch, he replied.

"I didn't find an external operation interface. I guess even if there is an interface, I can't use it. I don't know how long this spaceship has been abandoned." Ivans is still very dedicated as an engineer.

"The gaps in the exterior walls I saw earlier were too dangerous to enter from there because there were too many fragments." Zhuo Fan rechecked the previously collected information about the space city.

"If we really can't get in, let's go back. I don't think there's anything to check inside. It must be a mess, and maybe it's haunted..." After confirming that the newly discovered hatch door couldn't be opened, Ivans said, Immediately started clamoring to go back.

Zhuo Fan lay on the hatch and checked for a long time. After finding that there was no gap, he suddenly knocked on the hatch with his hand and asked, "Evans, logically speaking, the hatch structure is usually thinner than the wall structure, right?"

"Usually, huh? What do you want to do?" Evans said halfway, when he saw Zhuo Fan take out a high-frequency vibrating knife from the tool storage box behind him and gesture at the hatch.

"Team, team, captain, don't be impulsive, impulsiveness is the devil, do you know the devil? It's terrible..." Before Evans finished speaking, Zhuo Fan had already turned on the vibration switch and stabbed at the door.

"Is this door too brittle?" Zhuo Fan quickly opened a hole in the hatch of the space city. Surprisingly, his high-frequency vibrating knife cut a 2-inch hole in the hatch almost like cutting tofu. A person's high hole comes.

"Can this alloy also be used to build spaceships?" Zhuo Fan asked strangely.

"Isn't it the change in metal properties caused by radiation damage?" Evans answered by picking up a few pieces of metal scraps and putting them into the analyzer on his arm.

"How is it possible? To be able to build such a huge space city, its power must be nuclear fusion or more advanced technology. How can a civilization that has developed this level of energy not have the technology to avoid metal radiation damage..." Zhuo Fan retorted , he is smoothing the edge of the hole to avoid catching the space suit or other carried equipment when entering and exiting.

"Well, Captain... I just checked the age of manufacture of this alloy. They were manufactured 1 million years ago..." Gao Qiu said while taking out a piece of metal debris he picked up at random from the detector.

"Hundreds of millions of years?!... It's no wonder that no matter how strong the material is, it has been exposed to light and heat radiation for such a long time... Huh? Chef, how did you come up with the idea of ​​determining the age of production?" Zhuo Fan turned his head and glanced. Gao Qiu asked curiously.

"Oh, isn't the year of the material inspection the basic quality of a good chef?"

"..."

"I said Captain, do we really want to go in? Should we send an unmanned probe in first? You must know that the most important thing to explore in the unknown star field is safety first!" Evans looked at the dark interior of the city behind the door. A little apprehensive.

"What are you afraid of? This thing has been stored here for hundreds of millions of years. How could something go wrong now? I'm only worried that I won't find anything of value in it. Are you afraid that something will suddenly come out to attack you? Your Interstellar I’ve watched too many movies! Let’s go in.” Zhuo Fan activated the propulsion device on the back of the spacesuit and pushed the two of them into the space city.

"Hey, hey, if you want to go in, you should go in front..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up."

……

The space city is a mess, with all kinds of debris floating and colliding in the space that has lost the support of the gravity system, making it really difficult for people to move forward.In the end, Zhuo Fan still sent a few exploration robots, because small exploration robots are more suitable for exploring in such a complex environment.

Most of the debris in the space city is metal. Zhuo Fan and others picked up a few more pieces and found that although the exact year cannot be determined because there is no large-scale equipment, rough inspections have exceeded hundreds of millions of years.

Through the scanning of the exploration robot, the interior space of this space city has obvious passages and room designs. Judging from these huge passages and rooms, if nothing unexpected happens, the intelligent individuals of this civilization must be slightly larger than humans in size, about 2 meters tall. Between 3 meters and [-] meters, and its internal mechanical structure shows that this civilization has highly similar characteristics to humans in the development of science and technology.

The interior of the entire space city is dilapidated, worse than Zhuo Fan and others expected, and there is almost no complete object inside except for the frame.There are metal debris and twisted pipes and walls everywhere, and some thinner metal warehouse partitions are either twisted or smashed and riddled with holes.God knows what disaster this magnificent space city suffered to become like this.If it is not at the gravitational balance point of the Lagrangian point, as a supermassive matter, it will either be shredded by the gravity of other large stars, or it will eventually fall after being captured, or it will be directly ejected by the gravitational slingshot and become an orbit Malformed comet-like objects or flying out of the galaxy.

At this moment, Zhuo Fan and others are in a huge space several kilometers away from the entrance. The reason why they came here is because the detection robot found a coffin-shaped cubic device after scanning. It's a good thing.

"Captain, we don't have much air reserves, let's go back as soon as possible? We must know that not having enough air reserves in the universe is an act of death! Safety first! My captain!" Evans urged behind the high ball.

"Wait a minute, we have to get this big box back... By the way, Evans, why are you hiding behind the cook? Hurry up and help!" Zhuo Fan is moving a piece of cuboid equipment about 10 meters long, three meters wide and three meters high from the surrounding area. Cut it down.

It may be because the cube device has not experienced long-term space radiation because it is inside the space city, and its metal properties are not as brittle as the outer shell of the space city, but because the exploration robot scans that it is located at the top of a suspected slipway, it is obvious is a removable device.In view of the fact that the three of Zhuo Fan did not find anything of value after entering the space city, this metal box, which seemed to be a reasonable size and could be taken away, became the only sample that Zhuo Fan planned to bring back to the Iron Nail for detailed analysis.In order to convince the other 2 people, Zhuo Fan has forced this thing to be a treatment cabin or a hibernation cabin without any basis.
