Chapter 8 Charisma

After passing through the atmosphere and entering U167, the spacecraft quickly accelerated into the airspace of the Z area after buffering and falling for a few minutes.

“There is a group, do the final inspection, and don’t panic no matter what happens after you go down to the ground. Everyone is an experienced soldier. You must understand what you can do and what you can’t do. I don’t need to repeat it. Emphasize.” Jimmy glanced at Ryan and the others, then turned around and continued: “We need to collect samples of animals and plants, and we must not destroy the original ecological environment on the planet. The premise is to ensure our own safety. Do you understand?”

“knowledge!”

All answered in unison.

The spacecraft landed on an open grassland, the hatch opened, and everyone filed out, lined up in front of the spacecraft, ready to go.

The mecha team that set off earlier has done a preliminary scan and inspection of U167, and launched several locators to float in the air, one every kilometer, forming a large net on the surface of the planet. There is oxygen on the planet for people to breathe. The oxygen content is extremely high, there is no toxin, and there is no need to wear a space suit. And no radiation, substances harmful to the human body, etc. have been found for the time being, so the protective cover is not currently required.

Captain Jimmy has already made a division on the spaceship in advance. Everyone is divided into five groups and set off. Ryan and Amy said to pay attention to safety and then followed the team. They went all the way south, and the final destination was a lake, reaching the lake. Bo will then reverse the direction and return to the starting point from another road to gather.

The captain of the team numbered 5 is called Derrick Hall, red-haired and blue-eyed. He is a major. His status is under Lieutenant Colonel Jimmy. I don’t want him missing any parts when I go back, and I don’t want his panic to cause us unnecessary trouble.”

The others burst out laughing.

The blond, blue-eyed beauty with a wavy body wrapped in a combat uniform smiled and said, “Derrick, leave the little one to me, and make sure that there will be no mistakes when you go back.”

“Harriet, please don’t drain him. If the little baby is lonely, come to see brother.”

“Bah.” The hot Harriet directly gave the **** of a gun to the ranting team member. “Young man, your baby doesn’t have as long as your aunt’s fingers, so don’t worry.”

“Have you seen it, Harry?” asked the bearded man chewing on the stalk. “Break up?”

Harriet flicked her long hair, “I’ve been with you guys for a long time. I haven’t seen any bird before. I know the size through my pants, so I still need to strip it all off? Eugene, it’s not tested yet. Put the grass stalk in your mouth, say it early if you’re going to die, and I’ll give you a bullet.”

At first, the mean-spirited young man made a face of embarrassment, and shrank to the back. The soldiers who are only in the second stage can’t do the old fried dough sticks who have been in the army for a long time. Don’t look at a woman and feel like a bully. Worse than men.

As for the bearded Eugene, he froze instantly. The environment here is too good, exactly like the mother planet of the earth, and he made a taboo when he first came.

The cheerful and straightforward Derrick is not as direct and harmless as he seems, “Eugene remembers it, remember to write a check when you go back.”

“I’m doing the right thing, keep my mouth shut for me, let’s go.” Derrick waved one arm, the smile on his face was instantly retracted, and rushed out like an unsheathed steel knife, followed by the team members.

And Ryan, who was taken care of at the beginning, pulled up his camouflage mask, covering his face below the eyes, and his warm eyes were covered with vigor. If someone who knew him appeared now, he would definitely not recognize this man with a restrained blade. It’s Ryan Smith.

Nodding towards Harriet, Ryan moved at a speed no lower than that of a regular soldier.

Harriet raised her eyebrows, her red lips twitched and she gave a low smile. The captain really missed the point.

Planet U167 has not produced intelligent creatures, and everything remains in a state of ignorance. It has endless grasslands, calm and deep lakes, dense and towering forests, boundless deserts, silver-covered ice fields, wet and watery swamps, and boundless vast The sea…and all kinds of animals and dangers lurking in the boundless landscape.

It was too much like the home planet Earth, and while walking in it, Ryan felt in a trance that he was walking in the forest of the home planet.

After passing through a kilometer of grassland, they entered the forest. The low shrubs were struggling to grow in the sunlight given by the tall trees, and the light was projected through the dense branches and leaves into thousands of light spots that fell on the ground. On the ground, layers of fallen leaves are stacked, and the microstrips are undulating when stepped on, and the humus is very thick. There were traces of long-shaped creatures swimming on the ground, Derrick gestured with his finger, “The initial conclusion is that it is a python. The head and tail are estimated to be ten meters long and twenty centimeters thick. Snakes are hidden masters in the forest, everyone pay attention. .”

Everyone understood through gestures that in this environment, too many words were not needed to adjust the so-called atmosphere.

They didn’t come for a quick march, but to collect what they found along the way, including flora, fauna, minerals, fungi, and more.

With live ammunition and well-equipped teams, they are not afraid of the overlord Zerg running rampant in the universe, let alone the primitive creatures of a primitive planet. But there is nothing wrong with sailing the boat carefully, and being more careful.

“Eugene, Jiremy collect humus, Harriet, you take that little chicken to collect moss on the tree, Julian, Joris…” Dioclete assigned tasks one by one, even Ryan, a non-staff I also have my own work. I collect the moss on the trees that I can easily reach. If there are small creatures on the moss, such as things similar to snails, I will also bring them back.

“The way you cover your face is very different from before.” Harriet, who was always vigilant, watched Ryan take a piece of moss with tweezers and put it in the sampling bag. Looking at his pattern, his black hair was soft, He is a gentle man and a considerate husband. “How old are you, are you married?”

The bearded Eugene glanced at Ryan, “He’s not for you.”

Harriet rolled her eyes, “How do you know if you don’t try.”

Ryan was embarrassed. It was the first time that a **** beauty tried to speak so bluntly. He stammered: “I-I’m married.”

“Haha, Harry, you have no chance.”

Harriet shrugged not disappointed, “It’s rare to meet a man like you now, shy, gentle, yet sharp under the gentle, as mysterious as your black hair. Don’t think about developing a sweetness on the ship. love?”

After speaking, Harriet bullied her, her plump **** almost touching Ryan.

Ryan took two steps back staggeringly. He suddenly raised the **** and made two noises. The eyes of the others changed suddenly and looked at Ryan indifferently.

Ryan looked back and calmly retracted the weapon.

“God, when did it approach, we…” Fizzy and frizzy, that is, the second-stage soldier Jiremy suddenly silenced and stopped talking rashly. Saying it out, it’s a bit embarrassing for the regular army.

Half a meter away from Captain Derrick, a creature with a green body that looked like a mantis twitched to the ground, and died completely within a second or two. The creature’s pair of forelimbs as sharp as knives can cut off a person’s head with a single wave. No one knows where it came from before being beaten to death, except Ryan.

Derrick looked at Ryan deeply, “Thank you.”

Ryan nodded and continued the movements in his hands. Three pieces of moss taken from different tree trunks and heights were written with notes and sent to the collection box. He was not complacent or complacent because he killed a creature that was not found by regular soldiers, nor was he underestimated or ridiculed by others. While indignant and complaining, he was always neither humble nor arrogant, doing what he should do.

That calm back reveals the confidence of the strong.

The rest of the team put aside their contempt and began to look at this non-staff mechanical restorer who came from the logistics. They realized that this guy would be a burden but a help.

“In that hand just now, he should be better than Jimmy Ray.” Eugene, the captain’s deputy, said in a low voice.

Derrick collected the mantis-like creatures and said, “No.”

“No, it’s weaker than the rookie in the second phase?”

Derrick stood up and said, “He’s no worse than you and me.”

“This…”

Derrick had the pleasure of meeting his opponent, “He will be a good fighter, it’s a pity to stay in the logistics.”

The team continued to move forward, collecting samples from different locations in the forest one after another. At noon, they passed through the forest. During this period, they encountered a gurgling stream and saw a few small animals drinking water by the water, some half-human tall. A butterfly-winged animal with a fluffy body like a black ball, distinct from its bright blue wings.

There are also story-high, horned herbivores with small birds perched on their backs.

There are beautifully colored mushrooms growing in damp places, and the mushrooms have small white spots on the surface, which are definitely not edible.

They carry a detector with them, which can determine whether the things they have touched are poisonous. In a preliminary judgment, no one dares to put unfamiliar food from a strange planet into their mouths without a thorough test.

After walking out of the forest, the sun shines unreservedly, and it is not hot. It is spring in the Z area of ​​U167, the season of recovery of all things, and it is more convenient to witness the biodiversity.

With a chef’s intuition, Ryan found some single-sided mushrooms in the grass, and opened the soil to find some plant roots. When digging, a team member accidentally broke a root nodule, revealing white and dense flesh. Fragrance.

There was also a rather unremarkable tree, which Ryan and Harriet were responsible for collecting the branches and leaves, digging up a little rhizome, and if they saw a seedling, dig one. However, Ryan keenly felt that there was something wrong with the protrusions on the dry trunk. A knife cut open the surface, revealing the white and tender pulp, which immediately attracted ants lingering at the root of the tree. This is a fruit with a lot of sugar. poison.

The taste is quite enticing, with sweet peach notes.

If it weren’t for the soldiers who had to abide by the military regulations, Ryan, whose saliva was irritated by the taste, would definitely put the pulp into his mouth, which must be delicious.

Ryan felt that he should be an interstellar explorer and discover all kinds of things that can be eaten and used.

“Haha, we really found a treasure.” Harriet laughed boldly, and quickly collected fruits and ants whose abdomens became large and crystal clear after sucking the juice, “We used to see what we collected and what was useful. There are not many things, and there are not many points to be exchanged at all.”

Points are a popular reward in the military, and when accumulated to a certain amount, they can be exchanged for physical objects or even star coins. During planetary exploration missions, the more valuable things you find—medical, military, edible, etc.—the more points you earn.

Derrick also laughed, put down his prejudice, and saw that Ryan was more and more pleasing to the eye.

“I still have the vision and chose Ryan to come and partner with us.”

Harriet dismantled the platform, “At the beginning, they said they were rookies.”

“Haha.” Derrick was not annoyed, but said, “It’s not that I didn’t see it clearly at first, but then my eyes widened. If Ryan were a chicken, we would all be cooing in the chicken coop.”

Derrick put away his smile and looked at Ryan, “Welcome to Sergeant Ryan Smith to join our team. I’m sorry for what I said at the beginning, please forgive me.”

Under the leadership of the captain, the others also put down what they were holding and solemnly apologized to Ryan.

Ryan looked at the crowd and said, “I accept the apology, am I not already part of the team? Nice to meet everyone.”

“Yes, it’s been our brother for a long time.”

To prove himself with his strength, Ryan has always done well.

Not only the ground action team, but also the mecha combat team are responsible for this mission to explore the planet. There is one mecha player in each area. The Z area is a bit special. There are two here, and one of them is the black code name zero. That is, General Dalton, the supreme commander of the Xingtian Ship.

Leading the pack, Auston was always at the forefront with the soldiers.

Unbeknownst to Squad 5, Code Zero had followed them all the way.

In the cockpit of Code Zero, behind Auston, Blair, who was wearing a white coat and reading a book with his legs crossed, whistled, “It’s amazing, you won the trust of the team members in less than half a day, your young man is very charming. ”

Auston looked at Ryan, who was surrounded by crowds in the distance, and said with a chuckle, “I said, he’s very good.”
