What the three goblins said was so confident that Hao Ren didn't even react...
"We don't know the way back! Because we were originally involved in the space turbulence, and then floated all the way here! The starship's navigation computer has long been broken, and we wouldn't use it if it wasn't broken. You
Nonsense, we all know how to use it, but you don’t know how to use it! Anyway, you just don’t know where the battlefield is.”
The three little goblins were chattering incessantly. Hao Ren has now become somewhat accustomed to the talking rhythm of these bean creatures, so he can collect and sort out the really useful parts from a lot of irrelevant information. This time, the clues
very simple
The planetary fortress where the goblins lived had a big explosion on the battlefield. The space turbulence generated by the explosion threw the huge celestial debris into distant space. In the process, the starship's navigation computer was also destroyed.
Seriously damaged. Now this piece of wreckage has no power or navigation, and relies entirely on drifting to wander in the universe. Therefore, the goblins have no idea how to return to their hometown.
Although they were born from resonance crystals, they themselves do not seem to have the ability to find their home planet by tracing resonance signals.
But Hao Ren quickly thought of another thing: "Then how did those guys who besieged you before find you?"
"The bad guys can track the resonance signal!" The smallest of the three goblins jumped up and down in front of Hao Ren. Her hair was filled with electric arcs due to excitement, and her words were crackling like an electric discharge. "They are.
We must destroy the crystal, we must destroy the hub created by the goddess!”
Hao Ren heard a brand new word: "hub?"
"This is the final hub!" said the boy elf with short hair. "This is where we were first born."
"There are all the 'resonance crystals' you call them. The lightning left by the goddess never stops. Many companions are born from the crystals every day! Most of the fairies live in the hub!"
"That's the Crystal Star we're looking for!" Hao Ren suddenly became excited, but then he looked frustrated, "Forget it, you can't find it yourself anyway... I'm actually very surprised that those corrupt monsters can
I found you by tracking the signal, how come you fairies born from crystals don’t have this ability?”
The long-haired goblin showed a distressed look: "We should have one...but we don't have a queen. Goblins without a queen can't do anything."
"That's right, there must be a queen sitting on the throne for the goblins to work! And only the queen can let the goblins know what they should do! Ah, I found my psychic regulator! It is hung on my phone this time
On the waist."
Hao Ren was a little confused: "But you said before that you don't have a queen."
"Yes, yes, we don't have a queen. But the goblins must have a queen! She just hasn't appeared yet! The goddess said we have a queen!"
"I suspect it is another historical issue left over from the split of the Goddess of Creation's mind," Vivian whispered to Hao Ren, "I'm afraid these goblins are not 'finished products'. The Goddess of Creation may not have completed the final step when she created them.
step……"
"I think so too." Hao Ren frowned and nodded lightly.
At this time, the data terminal suddenly spoke, and it floated in front of the three goblins: "Listening to what you just said, the navigation computer is broken rather than lost. In other words, the navigation computer of the Naqdal starship is located on this planet fragment.
?”
"Yes, yes! This fragment contains the control center of the original Star Battleship! The doomsday weapon was also installed on this continent. However, when the planet exploded, most of the doomsday weapon was torn off, and now only the base is left.
It’s gone...but the navigation computer is still intact! Although it’s also broken..."
Hao Ren understood the meaning of the data terminal: "You don't know how to repair it, but maybe there is a way to take us to see the navigation computer?"
The three goblins nodded together: "Okay, okay!"
The control center of the planetary fortress is not far from here. You can see it from a distance after coming out of the great temple where the goblins live. It stands quietly at the end of the great plain, as straight as a black sword.
Point to the sky.
However, the towering temple is only part of the structure of the control center exposed on the surface. Of course, a planetary fortress cannot place its vital center in such a vulnerable place on the surface. Under the temple, there are shafts hundreds of kilometers deep and layers of layers.
Only after passing through these insanely thick armored walls can we reach the real location of the navigation computer.
The ancient transportation system has long been unusable due to stratigraphic dislocation and energy off-line. However, since this critical place has multiple complementary backup systems, there are still a few lights leading to the control center. Looking down from the shaft, it is intermittent.
The dim light stretches like meandering fireflies into the deepest darkness, which is daunting.
Vivian spread her bat wings and flew deep into the shaft with Hao Ren, while three little fairies flew in front of them to lead the way. The low light on the fairies effectively supplemented the lack of lights on the road sections.
The lighting allowed Hao Ren and Vivian, two people with night vision, to clearly see the surrounding details.
Most of the shafts are still intact, but there are still many signs of fractures and distortions in the middle. In some of the most severely dislocated sections, the entire shafts even broke apart and moved sideways for hundreds of meters. The squeezed in rocks almost completely destroyed the shafts.
The passage was cut off in the middle, leaving only some narrow cracks and holes for the goblins to pass through. Normally the goblins could go to the depths of the control center through these cracks, but Hao Ren obviously couldn't, so in many cases he had to use cutting beams to open a path.
Way out.
After passing through the deep vertical passage, they successfully entered the control center of the planetary battleship Nakdar: a hexagonal prism-shaped hall.
"This is the control center!" The long-haired goblin introduced him by flying in front of Hao Ren, his tone seemed quite proud, "This used to be a very lively place, and the guardian giants controlled the entire fortress here.
Fight the enemies, and there are many fairies here to help adjust the status of the equipment and so on."
"But now it is of no use. Even if it is repaired, Nakdar will not be able to continue flying. After all, the engine is gone. The main power furnace is gone...the weapon system is gone too! But we will still come occasionally.
Here, it’s a party or something.”
There was a dead silence in the control center. The buzzing sound of equipment and the bustle of people coming and going were no longer there. However, judging from the size of this hall and the huge equipment specially prepared for the guardian giant, Hao Ren
You can still vaguely imagine how grand and busy this place once was. There are a number of platforms of different heights in the hexagonal hall. Each platform is large enough to build a house on it, and there are also places on these platforms.
Seeing the control device that is six or seven meters high and the seats with the same huge proportions: the entire hall is like the kingdom of giants in fairy tales, but in fact... this place is indeed prepared for giants.
The average height of the Guardian Titans is over ten meters, so you can imagine how large-scale the facilities they use can be.
In the great destruction that Nakdal suffered, all the guardian giants who had fought here were killed, but the goblins escaped the most terrifying moment due to their unique life forms and relying on the fusion with the crystal in the fortress. In
In the following thousands of years, the goblins collected the remains of giants from all over the continent and buried them on the grasslands. The remains of the giants in this control center were certainly no exception.
After burying the giants, the goblins rarely return to the control center, because it is empty and empty, and it is far less attractive to them than the world on the surface that at least still has green mountains and green waters. But in some special times, such as when the goblins
When they suddenly think of the past, they will come back here to commemorate their former comrades through gatherings.
The control center was not completely dark. Hao Ren looked around and found that there were still few and weak lights slowly turning on and off in some corners. If he listened carefully, he could even hear some subtle buzzing sounds coming from under the floor.
Or coming from behind the wall.
Apparently some remaining backup energy lines are still operating.
This is the true centipede that never dies. As a super battleship built on a planet, Nakdal has countless subsystems and backup modules. These countless subsystems can ensure that even if the planet is
Even if the ship is torn apart, its fragments can still "survive" individually and even maintain a certain degree of combat capability.
"Where is the navigation computer? Or where is its interface?" Hao Ren looked around the hall and found nothing obvious that could be used as a central host, so he simply asked.
"There!" The smallest goblin flew into the air, raised his hand and pointed at the top of the hall, "That's it!"
Hao Ren looked up and saw a huge, almost dizzying dome structure that slowed his breathing for half a beat. Only then did he realize that the real highlight of this hall was the top of his head.
I saw countless huge alloy skeletons crisscrossing each other on the top of the hexagonal pillar-shaped hall, forming a nest-like structure. Pipes and lines snaked and intertwined between these skeletons, forming veins, and all these things eventually gathered in one place.
, that is a huge crystal like a heart.
The huge crystal was fixed on the dome by a solid metal structure. Hao Ren felt that its texture was very similar to that of resonance crystal. However, unlike normal resonance crystal, this "heart" looked dim at the moment.
This was the first time he saw a "resonance crystal" that did not emit light or resonate with other crystals. An idea emerged uncontrollably:
Every resonance crystal is alive, but the crystal above the hall...it is dead.
