It is not difficult to find a passage leading to the eldest son's brain nucleus. In fact, the brain nucleus must be near the center of the earth. As long as you find the right direction and dig all the way, you can find a place that is close to you, and then scan those deep underground.
The intricate nerve lines can easily lock the position of the brain nucleus.
But even though this matter is simple in theory, Hao Ren still has to carry out the entire operation carefully.
The eldest son of this planet has fallen into a state of brain death, but this does not mean that he is no longer a threat. Those tentacles that have the function of protecting the body and eliminating the intrusion of foreign objects can act autonomously even without the control of the brain core, and they will be destroyed automatically.
Threat targets within range and block the passage to the depths of the earth. If this were not the case, the war for the agents to retake their home planet would not have been so tragic and difficult.
Those tangled defense tentacles are only one of the difficulties. What everyone has to face is the increasingly weird environment as they go deeper into the planet.
The planet parasitized by the eldest son is different from the ordinary planet. The mere existence of this unprecedentedly huge mythical creature in the planet is enough to cause the interior of the entire planet to mutate. From the earth's crust downwards, the environment inside the planet goes deeper.
It will become more and more weird and bizarre, and the laws of physics will often be distorted, and even large-scale supernatural areas will appear. Where the tentacles of the eldest son are entangled, chaotic force fields can be seen everywhere, and energy surges replace the source of magma deep underground.
Sometimes nightmares may even erode reality. This phenomenon is most common near the ganglia of the eldest son.
After all, what grows deep in the planet is not a juvenile body, but a real mature eldest son, and its "brain" is also out of control: brain death greatly weakens the eldest son's external aggression, but makes it
The inside of the body becomes even more dangerous.
Hao Ren has been in contact with more than one eldest son, so he naturally has some understanding of the various characteristics of this mythical creature. Based on experience, he first needs to determine the distribution pattern of the eldest son's main tentacles from the shallow stratum scanning data, and find a suitable invasion point from it.
.
This part of the data is not rare. During the days when Nolan was lying on the surface, he had roughly scanned the crustal data of the entire planet through the probes released, and also mastered the general situation of each tentacle of the eldest son exposed on the surface, and will
After collecting the data, Hao Ren discovered several unusually eye-catching "cracks" on the planet's crust.
Those cracks almost run through several major continents and oceans. Although they have been "healed" on the surface and covered up by thick rocks, mud, sea water, and vegetation, they still appear to be fractured internally. In the holographic
In the image, these shadows representing fault zones are as dazzling as the "hidden wounds" of the planet.
This unnatural situation obviously cannot be caused by normal geological changes.
Hao Ren thought of one thing n-4 mentioned, the meteorite rain that changed everything. Before the meteorite rain that caused the eldest son's brain death, the eldest son once opened the earth's crust. Now it seems that the eldest son was in that meteorite
The damage suffered during the bombing was more severe than expected, so much so that it was unable to completely close the "holes" that opened up the planet after that.
Everyone unanimously decided to find a suitable breakthrough in these cracks: no matter how powerful a creature is, its unhealed wounds must be the most vulnerable weakness.
The Giant Turtle Yantai was silently traveling through the planet's atmosphere. She was flying over a crack and using her shipboard radar system to detect the rock structure deep in the earth. Hao Ren stood on the bridge while paying attention to Nolan's real-time transmission.
Back to the scanned image of the earth's crust while watching the scenery coming from the external monitor.
A sudden shadow on the clouds caught his attention.
"What is that?" Lily had also been looking at the scenery curiously, so she and Hao Ren discovered the anomaly behind the clouds at the same time and immediately started shouting.
"A falling object from outer space is not a threat, and it is not on our flight path." Nolan said casually. Her shields are fully full now and her armor is brand new. A falling object from outer space will not cause her to be injured at all.
focus on.
But others invariably focused their attention on the huge thing that was gradually breaking through the clouds and falling to the earth.
It was a huge round cake-shaped object, with a thick outer edge and an internal support structure made of steel. Around it, twelve solemn black cubes guarded the entire structure like silent guards. It was supposed to be
Fortress on the lunar surface.
The thick cloud layer was torn from it, and strands fell around the fortress, and quickly evaporated in the high heat. The fortress obviously did not effectively slow down when it entered the atmosphere, and its whole body was wrapped in a layer of blazing red light.
, the high-speed friction and violent vibrations when it broke through the atmosphere destroyed its ring wall and main beam. This ancient building (or spacecraft) gradually began to disintegrate as it approached the earth. The first thing to fall off was the ring wall.
The external armor was attached, and then its main servers began to catch fire one after another, exploding into eye-catching huge fireballs in the air, and metal debris raining down on the ground...
Lily exclaimed when she saw this scene: "Isn't that a fortress? What does the mastermind want to do?"
"The mastermind has shut down. The automatic program he left behind is now controlling the fortress," the data terminal said quickly. "It turns out that the shock we experienced when we left the fortress was not a self-destruct program... it was preparing to take off.
!”
The speed of the fortress is definitely not as fast as that of Nolan, so Hao Ren and his party have been active on the home planet until now, and the fortress finally arrived here.
As everyone watched in shock, the huge city-like fortress slowly fell towards the end of the horizon, and was torn apart in the process. Of course, the eldest son tentacles on the surface of the planet would not turn a blind eye to this: it would move that "movement" in the sky.
The "slow" falling object was regarded as another close-range bombing, and ferocious "ridges" were quickly raised on the ground. Thick dark green tentacles broke out from the ground, followed by invisible force fields and visible high energy.
Beams of light burst out from the surface of the tentacles, slamming into the fortress in the sky.
Hao Ren had already vaguely guessed the intention of the fortress. He tapped the console panel lightly: "Cover it and let the drones come down to help."
The high-energy beam launched by the eldest son bombarded the surface of the fortress, instantly making the fortress that had been severely damaged during the process of breaking through the atmosphere even more riddled with holes. The remaining repulsive shield of the fortress only flashed a few times before being extinguished.
The ring wall even split into three pieces, and several server arrays fell off the main body and fell towards the green earth of the mother planet.
The spoke-shaped main beams of the fortress gradually began to break, but it still made a final counterattack: countless turrets installed on the inner walls of the fortress roared at the same time. Under the control of predetermined procedures, these forts had been patiently prepared for thousands of years.
The weapons blasted all their energy and ammunition into Galactus' tentacles, causing a massive explosion that shook half of the continent.
Such a counterattack seemed to "irritate" the tentacles on the surface. More branch tentacles poured out from the cracks in the earth, and the fortress was instantly exposed to several times the anti-air firepower.
But at this moment, the fire cover from the Giant Turtle Rock Platform and the drone swarm finally arrived in time.
The powerful superior firepower instantly suppressed the eldest son's counterattack, while the fortress continued to fall along the predetermined trajectory. About one-tenth of the eldest son's anti-air firepower broke through the blockade of the drone group, and still firmly carried out the attack on the fortress.
The latter has no means of counterattack or defense at this moment to intercept and attack, so it can only use its own structure to resist these ruthless artillery fire.
Countless fragments of debris fell off its surface, and the thick armor and buffer structures unswervingly protected the core of the Final Palace.
Finally, the last piece of its structure collapsed. At this moment, the fortress could no longer be called a fortress. All that was left was a twisted wreckage burning with flames, trailing thick black smoke, and metal fragments flying all over the sky.
But in the black smoky wreckage, a bright light flashed past, and the twisted metal cabin, which was originally a circular hall, exploded from the middle. Hao Ren clearly saw a transparent glass container.
was thrown from the wreckage.
The huge container like a test tube miraculously remained intact until it reached a height of only a few hundred meters above the ground before exploding with a bang, and large clumps of flesh and blood tissue scattered to the ground like falling flowers.
At this height, the eldest son had no time to intercept him anyway, so those exiles who had been away from home for nearly ten thousand years finally fulfilled their long-cherished wish of countless generations and returned home.
In the end, the mastermind finally completed his mission.
Hao Ren stood quietly on the bridge, watching a stubborn and ancient artificial intelligence complete its final battle in this way. The drone group had withdrawn from the battle according to the order. When the last fragment of the fortress was volleyed by the tentacles,
After being shattered, the world finally became quiet again.
Only the scorched earth and the dried sky can prove what happened here.
"Terminal, record this. The dream plane civilization, with the number drawn up by you, completed the main body replacement on the 312th day of the New Empire Calendar 10090. The local original human beings became extinct. The civilization was inherited by the descendants of human beings. The status of this civilization is marked as survival.
.”
"It's documented."
"Boss, we have found the best invasion point," Nolan's voice came from all directions, "We have flown over a large crack. The battle just now caused the eldest son's tentacles to move violently, which happened to tear this place apart again.
A large number of tentacles were damaged in the battle, and this has become the weakest point in the eldest son's defense."
Terrain scan data of the surrounding area appeared on the holographic projection in the center of the bridge, and a huge rift was eye-catchingly marked, not far from the crash site of the last wreckage of the fortress.
Hao Ren nodded: "Let the drone swarm clear the way, and we will go down from this place."
