‘But later, in 2148, when prospectors accidentally discovered the ruins of Prometheus in the Prometheus Plain on Mars: a Prometheus Observatory that had been operating for 50,000 years... In 2149, the deciphered Prometheus data allowed humans to find the Charon mass repeater in the solar system. Then, the galaxy alliance began to be established and coordinated the survey, safety and colonization of extra-solar planets.’

‘In 2152, Charon mass repeaters and more repeaters that were almost spread throughout the Milky Way were discovered one after another. With a faster and almost instantly efficient navigation method, the low-temperature dormant warehouse program was finally abandoned.’

‘Today, Star Alliance only retains a small amount of medical survival dormant warehouses to meet the safety of the lives of the field hospital for seriously injured or some special state injured people who have no time to rescue, when the number is very small.’

'But according to my database, Xinglian should also have a low-temperature dormant emergency rescue dormant compartment that was once distributed to the pioneering colonies. Its codename is d-257. Although it is a bit old, it should be able to freeze the humans entering the survival warehouse at a very low temperature in an emergency and eliminate vital signs to almost nothing in order to maintain the arrival of rescue or avoid certain dangers.'

Speaking of this, the artificial intelligence edi with a beautiful silver short-haired girl looked at Captain Xue Bode. When it saw the other party's clear expression, it knew that the other party should have understood what he said and what he wanted to express, so it continued:

‘If the planetary mining colony of an-5367 had that rare and backward dormant warehouse, the success rate of the little girl successfully avoided the collector monsters and swept the attacks would be as high as 50%.’

'By my analysis of the planet an-5367 just now, the results show that the planet has too much atmospheric dust and extremely low visibility. Although it has the minimum environmental requirements for humans to breathe directly, allowing humans to breathe and survive without wearing protective gear, it will endanger the health of the upper respiratory tract mucosa. I do not recommend staying in that environment for more than three hours without protective gear. In addition, infrared monitoring of the minimum temperature on the planet's surface is -20 degrees Celsius and the maximum temperature is 12 degrees Celsius. Without protective gear, it will make humans feel very uncomfortable, which is consistent with the "very cold" described by the little girl!'

'In summary……'

‘Although it is impossible to analyze what exactly caused the lifesaving capsule to automatically release dormant and release the little girl, based on the results of my logical thinking calculations and the lie detection of the helping image, the truth of the little girl, the truth of the things she stated can be as high as 99.999%.’

‘So, Captain Shepard, you can go and do the rescue as soon as possible!’

‘I received the distress signal again, determined the specific location of the other party, and also scanned the other party’s vital signs, confirming that it was undoubtedly human. If you set out now, there is a 52% chance of successfully rescuing the other party and completing the rescue operation!’

‘The countdown to the mission is now twenty minutes. If you cannot reach the rescue target within twenty minutes, I suggest you cancel the rescue operation and leave here.’

The artificial intelligence of the holographic image extended his finger and operated it for a second on the holographic 3D model of the planet An-5367 projected, and she successfully marked a small green dot on it. The green dot is exactly the exact place where the little girl in a red skirt sends a distress signal, just in the middle of an abandoned mining colony.

As Ity continued to enlarge the holographic images of the planet, Shepard and Miranda next to him finally successfully discovered the small figure who seemed to be curled up in the corner of the dilapidated room in the ruins of the colony.

“…”

Seeing that his advanced Normandy II actually scanned a living little human girl hiding in the ruins, Shepard's breathing couldn't help but stagnate, and even his breathing became a little unnatural.

Although she could not see the specific appearance of the other person from the holographic image of edi, from the green digital figure, she was sure that the other person must be crying helplessly and trembling there now? It is really rare for a little girl to calmly send a distress signal and hide in that environment.

"Wait! Itie!"

"I don't understand why we have only a 52% chance of successful rescue now? Why is such a simple thing not 100%?!"

Now, Shepard has decided to go to rescue! However, she said that this unreliable artificial intelligence only has a 52% chance of successfully rescued, which made her feel a little incomprehensible.

"Report!"

At this time, without waiting for the AI ​​edi to answer, the clown helmsman who had just been taught a little by Shepard turned his head and reported to the confused captain.

Because, at this moment, on the map in front of him, he saw three big red dots heading towards the colonial ruins where they found the small green dots.

"Captain Shepard, I know this problem! That's because: Now there are the remaining enemies on the planet rushing towards the dilapidated colony, and three alien-equipped mass effect low-altitude aircraft and the monster semi-mechanical zombies transformed by nearly 300 collectors are on their way!"

"There are still many mechanical monsters that follow..."

"It is expected that they will arrive at the little girl's hiding place within twenty minutes! Our Normandy II cannot force landing and combat in this planetary environment, because it will cause great damage to the invisible paint and engine!"

"If you don't set out quickly, the chance of successful rescue will be zero!"

Mr. Clown, who was the helmsman, was doing the cic's work, exclaimed at this time, and reported anxiously and urged Captain Shepard, who was screaming at him.

He doesn't want such a cute little girl to be plundered and killed and transformed by a group of monsters. That kind of thing is cruel to think about it!

"strangeness……"

"Those guys, why did they find that little girl and surround her position?"

"Is this really a trap?"

There are some things that are once doubted, it is difficult to gain absolute trust again...

So, Shepard was not in a hurry to make a decision immediately because they still had a lot of time. She still didn't understand why the monsters created by the collectors were dispatched on a large scale when they found the little girl, just like forcing them to go down immediately?

The more she thought about this, the more she felt something was wrong!

"Report to the captain, this is definitely not a trap!"

Mr. Clown, who is still the helmsman, spoke in a hurry. Looking at his impatient appearance, he seemed to want to land on the planet by himself and save the little girl in front of the collector monsters?

"Speak your judgment, Mr. 'Helper'!"

Captain Shepard expressed dissatisfaction with a guy's behavior of overstepping his authority and speaking indiscriminately! If Normandy 2 had not needed the other party's control now, she would have to scold the other party!

"Because that little girl just sent a message of help from the entire channel without any restrictions, she will definitely be received and discovered by the enemy!"

The clown felt that it must be caused by the little girl who was afraid and helpless, and randomly pressed the sending of helping signals! Thinking about it, it is already amazing that a little girl can persist until now in that environment and still think of sending a helping signal.

"Iti, is it what he said?"

Shepard looked at the holographic image of the artificial intelligence edi still standing in front of herself and asked.

‘Yes, Captain Shepard!’

‘The other party did not use the encrypted band that only our human ships and instruments could receive, as before, but instead changed to full-band transmission!’

‘So, you still have eighteen minutes and twenty seconds left...eighteen minutes and eighteen seconds...’

The artificial intelligence program edi confirmed expressionlessly and gave Captain Shepard a countdown, which was the arrival time calculated by the opponent based on the speed of those enemies.

If this time limit is exceeded, there is no need for rescue.

“…”

"Let the hangar prepare an ut-47 Kodiak landing aircraft right away!"

"Miranda, you go to A and I to take a walk on this planet an-5367 immediately!"

After confirming that it was not the enemy's conspiracy, Shepard had nothing to hesitate. She walked towards the gate behind the bridge on the spot, while giving her orders and giving Miranda instructions.

As for another Jacob who had rich combat experience, she had no intention of taking her with her. Because it was just to rescue a little girl. As long as you land in the colony as quickly as possible, find people, and turn around and leave, there was no need to mobilize troops and mobilize too much combat power.

"As for orders, Chief Shepard!"

Miranda didn't talk much nonsense, nodded, turned around and ran out quickly. She needed to equip her own armor and weapons, and of course, her universal tools.

‘Okay captain!’

‘The UT-47 pull-down shuttle landing craft Kodiak is ready, the system has completed self-test, the shuttle landing craft is in good condition and can set off at any time!’

Behind Shepard, the artificial intelligence edi's electronic synthesizing sound without any emotion sounded...

The somewhat crowded cargo hold of the Star Alliance's ut-47 pull-down shuttle landing craft can generally accommodate twelve soldiers. If you squeeze, two more can be stuffed into the cab. Compared with the Star Alliance's official name "Kodiak", this small shuttle landing craft is more popular among the Star Alliance teams, because it looks very flat and is as durable as cockroaches, and it is not easy to damage or malfunction.

This special landing spacecraft has powerful and excellent environmental sealing technology and armor, which rarely exposes fragile components inside! According to the results of Star Alliance's official tests at Venus' sulfuric acid clouds and extreme temperatures, the "Kodiak" can forcefully land in absolute vacuum, high air pressure and temperatures close to near absolute zero to harsh temperatures exceeding 900 degrees Celsius!

In addition, the "Kodiak" is a truly mass-effect anti-gravity vehicle. Its essential zero-element core can even allow the spacecraft to float directly in the planet's powerful gravity! It can also actively block the enemy's scanning, or engage in a certain degree of electronic confrontation with the enemy. There is also a powerful kinetic energy barrier system that can defend against the enemy's kinetic energy weapons. Therefore, it is very suitable for hidden marines in the airborne, and gradually becomes the main equipment of the Star Alliance.

Cerberus naturally prepared four such excellent landing craft for Shepard on this Normandy II spacecraft, even if the unit price of each of them is as high as three million star coins.

"Uh..."

(??????`??)

Crouching in the corner of this dilapidated ruins, Anne first threw the leftover food box away, sucked it a few times, drank a can of sour and sweet functional drink from the Kepru Star area, and then burped in satisfaction, stretched and breathed happily.

??(????0`??)??

After eating and drinking, she picked up her bear, curled up her knees and retreated back to the corner. Now, she needs to lean on this clean place and digest it well. If no one has arrived in a household, she may have to release her spaceship and try to leave here.

Because... it's dirty here, it's not suitable for her to sleep in after eating and drinking!

(…)

(Cute and charming little master, will someone really be fooled and come here to "rescue" you just now?

⊙(???????)?

——More an hour has passed, and Tibers feels that no one will come here to rescue this terrible little master!)

"Why not?"

(￣▽￣)?

Anne was a little depressed. She had just eaten and drunk enough, and now she was chatting with her little bear and chatting, talking and passing the time. Anyway, she was idle.

(Because you just lie! If someone really receives a signal from you, someone will definitely know that you are lying with a test!

(??????????????)????

——Anyway, Tibers thinks that no one will come. It’s better to release his spaceship out earlier and go to the universe to stroll around. If you can’t find a place for living people, then it will continue to instigate its little master to change the world or something)

"I didn't lie just now!"

╮(￣▽￣)╭

(Why isn't there?!)

(??????????)

"Tibers, look at it..."

"Just just now, I was really cold, hungry, and sleepy! Also, the sky outside was dull and dark, so where did I lie?"

o(??^')o?

(But you are not afraid at all. You just pretended to be afraid and sent a distress signal. Isn’t this a lie?)

Σ(っ°??°;)っ!?
