"Sir, the security window will open in five minutes."
A graceful female soldier came to Wang Chen and said softly, "Please prepare for landing."
Wang Chen, who was sitting by the porthole, nodded: "Got it."
His eyes were still admiring the huge planet outside through the thick glass window.
ED502 Ecological Experimental Star, an extremely special planet.
More than three hundred years ago, an imperial expedition discovered it and conducted a three-year scientific investigation.
Then it was named "Sennhai".
The special thing about the Senhai star is that this planet of life is completely covered by mountains and forests. There are no oceans or lakes, and no rivers or streams.
The vegetation here is extremely dense, with trees growing to heights of hundreds of meters. The oxygen content in the air is more than twice the normal standard, and it also contains countless plant spores.
Once people inhale this air, certain spores will grow in the lungs and even germinate!
Therefore, ordinary people cannot survive on the Senhai star without wearing protective equipment.
Unless a planet-level transformation is carried out!
However, such a transformation would require an enormous investment and might not necessarily succeed. In addition, the empire at the time did not have an urgent need for interstellar migration, so it only placed a space station in planetary orbit.
For scientific research purposes.
But not long after, the Empire's scientific expedition team discovered more than a dozen precious minerals on the star Senhai.
Including energy stone mines!
Thus, a vigorous mining business began.
Over the past few hundred years, several mining companies in the empire have dug holes all over the interior of Senhaixing. It is said that the deepest mine tunnels go more than 15,000 meters underground, and the mines are densely packed and dotted, forming a huge underground maze world.
As a result, many miners took the wrong mine and got lost, never to return.
After only two or three hundred years of mining, most of the mineral reserves of Senhai Star were exhausted, so it was used as an ecological experimental star for breeding and raising mutant creatures.
The top leaders of the empire obviously did not expect that this planet, which had been drained of its resources, would become a nest of rebels!
Wang Chen knew that his mission this time was difficult and dangerous.
But the seventh level of Tianlong Vajra Dharma, plus the spiritual power of the sixth ring, gave him the confidence to face any danger.
The most important thing is that Wang Chen is quite interested in this special planet.
In addition to the topography, there are many peculiarities in the planet Senhai. For example, geomagnetic storms and unknown energy tides have frequently occurred on the planet since more than a hundred years ago, seriously affecting the investment and use of scientific and technological equipment.
Up to now, any spacecraft that wants to land on the Shaosen Starfish needs to wait for the safety window, which is the time period when the geomagnetic storm and energy tide disappear or stabilize. Otherwise, the ship is likely to be destroyed and people will die!
As for the time when the safety window appears, we can only rely on observation and detection. The duration of its existence may be as long as three to five days, or as short as a few days before it disappears. There is no pattern to follow.
Such a planet is obviously even less suitable for human survival.
Wang Chen saw that the "magnetic light" storm shining in the atmosphere of this green planet had become very weak.
This magnetic light storm is similar to the polar aurora in his previous life, except that the latter is caused by the collision of stellar particle flow and planetary magnetic field, and only appears in local areas.
And magnetic light storms will appear in the atmosphere of the entire planet of Senhaixing!
Five minutes later, the safety window opened, and the spacecraft that Wang Chen was riding on cut into the atmosphere of Senhai Star from the synchronous orbit, and then after some violent turbulence, landed in a steel fortress.
This fortress on the star Senhai looks like a giant bowl upside down on the earth. Its silver-gray surface reflects the light of the stars and can be seen even from space.
Yinsen Base is the Empire's last stronghold on Senhai Star and also a small city.
The Senhai First Mechanized Infantry Regiment is stationed here!
When Wang Chen got off the spaceship, he was greeted by a fat and strong officer escorted by a group of soldiers.
Wang Chen immediately saluted and said, "Major Staff Officer Wang Chen, reporting to the commander!"
The officer with the lieutenant colonel's epaulettes is none other than Meng Liangao, the commander of the 3500st Mechanized Infantry Regiment of Senhai. He is the highest military administrative chief of the Yinsen Base and has three mechanized infantry battalions under his command, with a total of officers and soldiers.
This time, Wang Chen was ordered to come to Senhai Star alone to investigate the rebel forces, and the identity he used was certainly not a member of the Seventh Fleet.
Nominally, he was a major staff officer sent by the Imperial Military to the 1st Mechanized Infantry Regiment of Senkai, and also served as the captain of the military police.
A month ago, riots broke out at the Yinsen base. The rebel forces lurking inside suddenly launched an attack, resulting in heavy casualties in the First Mechanized Infantry Regiment. Wang Chen's predecessors were killed as a result.
This riot was also related to the pursuit operation launched by the Seventh Fleet on the Senhai Star.
The whole incident is extremely complicated and there are many hidden issues involved.
The Seventh Fast Reaction Fleet had no choice but to send Wang Chen to investigate, and changed his identity through the military.
Wang Chen’s current rank of major is a temporary promotion. If this mission is successfully completed, it will become permanent!
"Staff Officer Wang is really a very promising young man!"
Meng Liangao smiled and returned the greeting, then shook Wang Chen's hand firmly and said, "The Senhai First Mechanized Infantry Regiment is so lucky to have a young hero like you join us."
The lieutenant colonel commander looked wealthy and his smile was like that of Maitreya Buddha, with a rosy face and a friendly demeanor.
But Wang Chen would not be fooled by the other party's appearance - anyone who could keep his position even in the midst of internal strife was definitely not a mediocre, incompetent, or soft-hearted person.
Meng Liangao's background must be very strong!
Wang Chen smiled faintly and said, "You are too polite. I hope you can give me more guidance in the future."
"It's easy to talk about."
Meng Liangao warmly invited Wang Chen to get on his special car, and then drove him to the base of the mechanized infantry regiment.
The architectural structure of the Yinsen Base is very special. From the outside, it looks like a huge inverted silver bowl. Most of the time, its dome is completely closed to resist the invasion and interference of geomagnetic storms and energy tides.
Only when the safety window appears will the base dome open to allow spacecraft to take off and land.
As for the interior of the dome, in addition to the base of the Senhai 1st Mechanized Infantry Regiment which occupies a considerable area, the rest of the large and small buildings include some scientific research institutions, commercial facilities, parks, etc.
And there is an immigrant city underground in the base, accommodating hundreds of thousands of people!
These people are mainly miners and their families.
Because there are still unmined mineral deposits near the Yinsen base.
There are also a small number of scientific researchers.
It can be said that in the huge Senhai star, most of the imperial people are concentrated in this Yinsen base.
