Chapter 309 Black Box
"We surrender. I am a high-level Corruptor. I want to apply for the corresponding prisoner treatment!" Seeing that there was no way to escape, the Corruptor Governor hurriedly sent a surrender message to the Imperial Fleet.
Under the aiming of the Imperial battleship's guns, the Corruptor evacuated the battleship and lowered the guns to allow the Imperial battleship to shine the tractor beam on the spacecraft.
After a while, the spacecraft was pulled back to the planetary orbit where the Imperial main fleet was located.
At this time, the Corruptor planet had been almost completely swallowed by the magma wall.
The circumference of the circular lava wall began to become smaller and smaller after crossing the equator, and the corresponding volume began to increase. The height of the lava wall also rose to nearly 20,000 meters.
In those places that have not been swallowed by the lava wall, the huge crustal movement caused dense cracks on the ground, and huge gullies appeared out of thin air on the flat ground. The original giant buildings have almost collapsed.
Because this planet is located in a remote area and there are no Corruptors with intermediate evolutionary authority on the planet, there is no spacecraft that can leave the planet's atmosphere!
Of course, this is also related to the poor mobility of the population of the Corruptors. There are no passenger ships and transport ships traveling between the planets, which means that the people on this planet have no ability to escape to space.
They can only helplessly watch themselves being swallowed by the lava wall in their own homes.
Tens of minutes later, the last piece of safe land was also swallowed by the lava wall, and the towering lava walls exploded together into a rain of fire.
Small lava waves spread from the collision point to the surroundings of the planet, but because the density of the lava is too high, the kinetic energy generated by the collision pushed these small waves to only move a short distance before disappearing.
A few hours later, the entire planet completely returned to calm, but at this time the planet had also become a complete lava planet.
The jungles, lakes and grasslands originally located between the cities of the Corruptors have all turned into a sea of magma.
The Corruptors on this planet were also buried in the lava sea along with their cities.
"Your Majesty, we have collected data on the destruction of this planet, and we have also captured the evacuation ship that escaped. The other party has been put into the cargo hold of the Crescent Dreadnought." Qiuyue came behind Li Mingze and said.
"Okay, let's retreat." Li Mingze nodded, and the Imperial Fleet flew to the edge of the star system under the command of Tianyi.
Soon, the Imperial Fleet disappeared in the starry sky...
Two days later, three fleets consisting of 10 million low-level Corruptor frigates appeared in this star system.
But they could no longer find any trace of the Imperial Fleet. The Imperial Fleet only left them a planet that had turned into a lava planet.
"Sir, the five million low-level Corruptor civilians and 50,000 low-level Corruptors on this planet have all been killed by the Sith Empire." A Corruptor warship circled the planet and sent a message back to the fleet flagship after confirming that there were no survivors.
"Have you found the black box?" The Corruptor commander frowned.
"The black box is being searched. The attack on this planet was too strong. Because of the movement of the earth's crust, the black box is no longer in its original position. In addition, the thick magma layer blocked the signal." The reporting officer lowered his head.
"Wait. Sir, we found the black box!" The officer seemed to have received a report from his subordinates and suddenly raised his head and said.
On the Corruptor planet that has become a lava planet, a huge Corruptor destroyer is quietly suspended above a magma pool, and countless red tentacles extend into the lava pool under the warship.
After a while, accompanied by a burst of lava bubbles rolling, dozens of thick tentacles holding a red metal ball rose up.
After the destroyer's tentacles put the metal ball into the cargo hold of the warship, several tentacles began to pry rhythmically on the surface of the metal ball.
With the sound of the gears running, the metal shell of the metal ball slowly opened, and a red tumor was exposed.
At this time, the three commanders of the Corruptor had also come to the cargo hold of the destroyer.
"Open it and ask the recorder what happened on this planet!" A Corruptor commander frowned and ordered the soldier beside him.
"Yes! Sir!" The soldier walked to the red meat ball and inserted a hand extending from the meat ball into the interface behind his brain.
As a sound of unknown language came out of the ball, the ball began to bloom like a chrysanthemum, revealing a Corruptor covered with mucus inside.
This Corruptor's body was full of various tubes and data cables, and his skin was unhealthy white.
This is the intermediate Corruptor that every Corruptor planet has: the recorder.
The role of these recorders is to record everything that happened in the entire planet and the place where the star system can be observed. After reaching the limit every hundred years, it will start to cover from a hundred years ago.
The reason for leaving a recorder, or "black box", on each planet is to enable the ruler to know every move that happened on the planet and maintain the rule of the ruler.
By the way, after a natural disaster or war breaks out, you can know what happened on the planet, so as to make preventive preparations in the future.
The shell made of super alloy and the thick energy-absorbing tissue inside can ensure that the recorder in the black clamp can survive for more than five days and wait for rescue even if immersed in magma.
The recorder, who was originally sleeping, slowly opened his eyes after the sphere opened.
"Hello, sir!" Seeing the group of high-level corruptors surrounding him, the recorder hurriedly said.
"Tell us what happened to this planet?" A corruptor commander said with a serious expression.
"The fleet of the Sith Empire suddenly appeared next to the fortress in our planet's orbit."
"It only took one round of salvos for the Empire's fleet to destroy the fortress in our orbit."
"Then the Empire's fleet fired a kinetic shell at the planet! The power of this kinetic weapon is too terrifying!" At this point, the recorder seemed to recall some terrifying scenes, and his face became a little hideous.
"Read the video data he stored." A corruptor commander waved his hand and asked the soldier next to him to connect a terminal to the data interface behind the recorder.
After a while, a holographic screen appeared in front of everyone. The holographic screen showed the scene when the Empire's mass projection shells just flew through the atmosphere, followed by the formation of the lava wall, and the scene of the lava wall constantly advancing and swallowing the city.
