"It's a synthetic sugar liquid, very high in calories, suitable for replenishing physical strength... It contains a little bit of hallucinogenic and sleep-aiding ingredients. It seems that these giant golden mushrooms use this sugar liquid to attract other creatures to 'symbiosis' with them?"
After the initial shock of the information about 'alien creatures', Ian quickly calmed down.
In the previous life of the Earth, although intelligent alien creatures have not yet been confirmed, the existence of simple alien life forms has been proven - the light speed spacecraft project he wanted to participate in was for immigration and alien exploration of habitable planets.
Activity.
However, unlike what many people imagine, this kind of alien pioneering mission basically does not involve humans. In the past, it was all intelligent robots.
If you think about it carefully, you will know that in an empty universe and a desolate alien planet, it would really take decades for human elites to be thrown to an alien planet dozens of light-years away to do the most basic construction work, even if they are elites.
Ying himself agrees, but the government and scientific research departments won't let it go - it will take several generations or more to build an alien planet that is almost enough for human habitation, and the subsequent supporting industries and production buildings can basically only be controlled by AI.
.
Why send elites to do something with no technical content?
Anyway, after building a hyperspace communication base station, the delay can be reduced to within a few hours.
In this case, it is better to use robots from the beginning, wait until the development is almost complete, and then let people go over.
Although it's basically still hard work, at least you don't have to do hard work, and you can also carry out some large-scale research operations to investigate the alien life forms of some living planets.
Although the Terra civilization in the pre-era is not on the same scientific research tree as the Earth civilization, technology is a tool to achieve the goal. Since they have reached the point of space development, Ian believes that the other party will definitely try to obtain related alien life.
information.
But what he didn't expect was that the Terran people in the previous era were not just exploring, they had even created an 'alien alien ecosystem'!
After all, picking up an alien ecosystem for nothing is really enviable!
The reason why this group of underground ruins is so large is because of the need for a related ecosystem? For example, this kind of giant mushroom can only live underground or something...
and……
"According to the record in the silver chip, this large metal-based mushroom from the Obra star field was not obtained through active exploration by the Terrans, but because something code-named 'Tinder' arrived from a spaceship suspected to be
To Terra."
Reminiscing the metallic sweetness of the fluorescent mushroom liquid in his mouth, Ian thought thoughtfully: "Fire... There used to be a plan called Fire on the earth. It was a waste of time when the ecological balance was almost completely collapsed.
The insurance decision made by the Federal Council - if human beings are unable to repair the Earth's ecology that collapsed after the war, while emigrating to the space city, they will launch several generation spacecraft into the universe that carry the Earth's biological gene pool and history.
At the speed of light, it will travel towards several potentially habitable planets to avoid the complete extinction of humankind.”
"In other words, it is just a tombstone sent to the universe to commemorate the existence of human beings."
"Although the subsequent ecology was successfully restored and the ecological space city was successfully built, the Tinder Project was canceled and was even criticized by later scholars as a dangerous move that exposed the gene pool and civilization of the earth's civilization to possible alien civilizations, but If we really encounter the big risk of genocide or even the annihilation of civilization...fire is the only hope in despair."
——Did the civilization that may exist in the Obra star field make such a choice?
And the fact that Terra they chose actually has a native intelligent civilization is something that those aliens probably didn't think of.
This is no longer important, because Terra also encountered the "Skyfall Disaster" that almost wiped out their entire race.
"Metal-based life."
Ian heard another movement in the corner of the cave. He looked up and found that sometimes the giant golden mushrooms and their hosts would go to the pool to drink water.
Those hosts include swamp crocodiles, steel-clawed moles, and many ground-escape giant beetles that resemble mole crickets.
This point made the young man realize again: "It seems that the Sequoia Base was originally a base for studying the alien ecosystem of Obra - this is why there are so many metal-based life forms around the Nanling and Nanhai. reason!"
All the common monsters in Nanling have more or less metal elements.
Even the minehunting jellyfish, a species with extremely keen perception and ability to manipulate magnetic fields, may have been formed due to research here!
In addition, the body temperature of metal-based life forms is already very high. Even the temperature in the tropical South China Sea is no different from refreshing and pleasant to them... If the temperature is too low, it will be like the caves here now, with all the giant gold Both mushrooms and monsters are in a dormant state that is too lazy to move!
Alien creatures... Well, it seems that the Terran civilization has obtained a large number of alien biological samples, so it can develop so many prototypes of 'Warcraft'.
and……
"There is definitely more than one alien ecology."
Thinking with certainty in his mind, Ian recalled all kinds of strange monsters on the continent of Terra, some of which even did not look like natural evolution at all, or in other words, even if they were transformed, it was difficult to find the basic original body of Warcraft: "Metal-based creatures may be derived from Regarding the ecosystem of the Obra Star Territory, what about the others? It is absolutely impossible for so many types of Warcraft to be reproduced only from the Terra and Obra ecosystems."
"And the ecosphere in the labyrinth that is very different from normal Terra, maybe... is also a type of alien ecosphere?"
"Perhaps, in every maze, there is more or less an 'ecology different from Terra', and that's why the maze species were born?"
This is just a guess, but the young man believes that this guess is very likely to be true.
In addition, Ian is certain of one thing.
"It's no wonder that before the Skyfall disaster, the sublimation skills on Terra were not very strong or even perfect at all - it was because there were many alien creatures and alien-modified creatures that gathered on Terra, which led to the... The sublimation technology based on replicating the power of Warcraft has exploded!"
"The sublimation skills at that time were probably just like fitness skills. Only a few people relied solely on water grinding skills and the high physical fitness brought about by genetic modification to advance. It was not a 'explicit science' like it is now."
So, here comes the problem.
——The disaster of falling from the sky, is it a natural disaster or a man-made blow?
——Is this blow related to the plan that caused the intelligent creatures in the Obra ecosystem to choose to use fire to carry the ecosystem?
Ian stroked the giant golden mushroom in front of him, his eyes dropped, and he murmured in a low voice: "Shuoyue..."
That broken moon... It was once called "Looking", but now it is broken into pieces...
There must have been many lunar space bases there for the Terran civilization to observe the starry sky.
so……
——Who broke the eyes of the Terran people who used to look at the starry sky?
"There must be a huge disaster behind the gradually disappearing starry sky in the outer universe."
At this moment, the young man felt as if he had discovered part of the truth hidden in the continent of Terra: "It was that disaster that caused the disaster, and it was also the reason why the Obra civilization could only use fire to transport information about the ecosystem!"
"There must be relevant information and data stored in the Sequoia Base!"
Raising his head, at this moment, Ian was more excited and determined than ever.
He looked around the entire cold cave occupied by giant golden mushrooms, looked around this 'small alien ecosystem', and made up his mind: "No matter what, we must obtain the information in this base - even if it means using the power of the sand armor apprentice!"
"
No matter what the special agents of the Flying Fire Land, what Patrick, what parasites and alien species, no one can stop him!
He must get the truth about the Obra ecosystem and the so-called 'fire' in this base!
"Ahem!"
At this moment, Ian heard a cough from behind him.
