This is a planet dotted with ancient ruins. Almost all of the latest buildings are composed of scientific research archaeological laboratories or similar functional buildings. But now, there are no scientific researchers inside, only some irregular immigrants remain.
"You mean, the ruins all over this planet belong to Protheans?" Anderson looked at the scan results of the entire planet and exclaimed: "The Asari must have obtained a lot of technology from it."
"Ah...well, a lot of technology is true, but..." Benacia was speechless and stopped talking.
"[But it's all about 'greenhouses' and 'soilless cultivation.'" Jarvik said.
"Oh, when this planet was first discovered, the Asari did not allow other races to conduct archaeological research. We Turians were too lazy to pay attention to it, but the Salarians insisted on getting to the bottom of it. According to the Citadel Convention, they argued for several months.
In the end, a joint scientific research treaty was signed," Saren sneered: "In the end, it was discovered that it was all about agricultural technology. Each of them divided their points and withdrew in despair. This matter was successfully selected as the most ridiculous news of the year."
"...It has nothing to do with me anyway," Benacia rolled her eyes and approached the Prothean: "Mr. Jarvik, since you directed us here, then there must be more than just agricultural technology here? Are there biological weapons?"
"[Of course there is, but it has not been developed,]" Jarvik glanced at her strangely, or four times: "[I told you, it's Solian.]"
["You treat weapons as food?" (model)]
["You use food as a weapon?" (Rebellion)]
["Can it be eaten? Is it delicious? How to eat it?" (Taotie)]
What about the normal option with no tendency?
"This 'Sorian' you are talking about, is it delicious?" Since Kangna was a little curious herself, she asked.
"[It's not a question of whether it tastes good or not, that stuff is rare,]" Perhaps because he came to a familiar planet, Jarvik relaxed a little, and his tone became less serious: "[It's
Cells obviously have cell walls, but as a whole they can move freely like animals. When I first discovered that it could move, it was jumping from one greenhouse to another, eating and merging all the plants or animals it encountered along the way.
As a result, it was unlucky enough to encounter a patrolling security guard, and was struck with a knife and a bang——】"
"[Puff——]" The entire battleship trembled.
"[...]" Jarvik turned his head and looked around: "[What are you laughing at?]"
Phew... Ruiwen's image appeared in the conference room.
"[It's not me,]" she said: "[Our AI has been strictly trained and will never laugh no matter how funny it is.]"
Who can train AI? She probably discovered some funny point that only she knows about.
"So, Lao Jia, what are its specific characteristics? And where are they?" Kangna asked instead.
"[What I'm going to say next may be a bit scary. You can decide whether to wake it up after discussing it.]" Jarvik seemed to understand the title of Lao Jia.
"We are ghosts, we are not afraid." Saren hummed.
"[Pfft...]" Ruiwen's image disappeared directly.
"[This kind of plant will become intelligent as the population increases, just like... ants,]" Jarvik said: "[They just devour and fuse other creatures at first, and then they can control the bodies of other creatures.
, then it becomes able to control the creatures that inhale their spores, and finally, as long as there is enough food, it can create clones of the creatures it has devoured.]"
"..." The room became quiet for a moment.
"It sounds like this 'Thorian' is more like some kind of 'transcription virus' with a plant form," Kangna raised her eyebrows: "If Prothean already knows the characteristics of so many stages, it means that it has successfully evolved.
If it reaches that level, how do you finally eliminate it?"
"[By abandoning the planet.]" Jarvik replied.
"This..." Kangna and Anderson looked at each other, both seeing disbelief in the other's eyes.
According to humankind's approach, it is either to completely wipe it out or be completely wiped out by it. We will never make the decision to "abandon a planet" easily.
"[You should be able to understand, Bella...Sia.]" Jarvik looked at the matriarch.
"Indeed," Benacia responded happily, regardless of whether his name was mispronounced: "For a civilization with a large number of resource planets, if an ecological disaster occurs on a mere planet that is difficult to solve, the personnel should be evacuated directly.
Just leave it alone, and the planet's ecosystem will adjust itself."
Native creatures would certainly not think so.
"So, you starved Solian to death?" Anderson asked.
"[After we abandoned this planet for a while, we found that 'Sorian' had gone into dormancy after running out of food, so we tried to return and replant it. This time we found that as long as we only plant plants without mixing animals, Solian will not survive."
Will wake up, so the planet was planned as an agricultural planet that only produced plants, and the incident ended,]" Jarvik shrugged: "[Until the Reapers appear.]"
"Oh..." Benacia said as if he suddenly understood: "I just said, how can a civilization spread all over the galaxy be vegetarian."
"[Obviously, due to the destruction carried out by the Reapers, your knowledge of the Protheans is limited to the excavation of ruins,]" Javik put on an expression that felt overwhelmed by the high altitude.
"I wouldn't mind getting to know you better..."
"[I am not interested in lower aquatic molluscs.]"
"You haven't said how to wake up Solian, and even if you wake it up, how to drive it to fight." Kangna interrupted the two of them from their daily routine.
"[I thought you monkeys in the cave had the ability to think independently after evolving civilization,]" Jarvik glanced at Kangna: "[Arrange local forces to carry out animal breeding, and take advantage of them after discovering signs of activation.
If they are not aggressive enough, just transplant them away, keep the food supply, and throw them out when the Reapers attack. They may not be able to fight against battleships, but they will still have no problem dealing with infantry and vehicles.】"
Hmm... We've been together for so many days, and you still treat me like a monkey?
It seems that although Protheans have many eyes, their eyesight is not good enough and they cannot see the difference between androids and humans.
"If we contact the home planet now and let them make arrangements..." Saren rubbed his chin and thought.
"No need," Benacia shook her finger, "I remember that I have a distant niece named Sianna here, and I can arrange for her to do this."
Hmm... I always forget that Benacia is over 3,000 years old.
