Rong Xiang's exploration was still going on. He was strangely studying these planetary thruster groups located at the South Pole. Then he suddenly thought of something and asked Rose: "Calculate, if you want to push a planet to escape the gravity of the star, you only need to rely on
Are there enough planetary thrusters here?"
Rose replied almost without pause: "It's not enough. At least two hundred planetary thrusters need to be deployed in the entire southern hemisphere to provide sufficient power, and there should be a circle of thrusters for direction control around the equator as an auxiliary.
OK."
"But we didn't find anything when we just circled around and completely scanned the planet." Rong Xiang said, and then added: "The outside temperature is minus 143 degrees Celsius, which is really cold... The soil test results are out
Is it done yet?”
"Wait a moment, the last few parameter comparisons... Okay, the soil here is very poor, but unexpectedly found a lot of radioactive traces, it seems that this place has experienced a very serious nuclear radiation." Rose said.
"What about the sampling results from other places?" Rong Xiang asked again.
"Similarly, it's very strange. There are almost no metal elements in the soil everywhere on this planet, but there are traces of radiation left... There is a big problem here." Rose's voice was also full of doubts.
Rong Xiang patted the wall of the planetary thruster next to him and said: "If there is no problem with your test, then there is indeed a big problem, because there is such a large piece of metal in front of us..."
Then the problem is serious. It seems that there are serious signs of man-made factors here. And if this is really the case, then it seems that the civilization here should not be that simple.
He walked quickly forward, passing through the ruins of one planetary thruster after another, and saw many collapsed thruster buildings and many abandoned settlements. Then he found a very special piece of metal under Rose's scan... or
It should be said that it is a metal statue, a black metal statue that looks like a lizard man. It is as lifelike as if the statue can open its eyes and come alive at any time.
"Is this the image of intelligent life in this civilization? The statues left in the ruins should be their works of art... It seems that this should be an intelligent life that evolved from reptiles, and they are very sensitive to metals.
The processing technology is good. The metal of this statue is an alloy we have never seen before. The composition is very complex and requires detailed analysis of its functions." Rose said, already starting to scan the statue.
But Rong Xiang shook his head and ignored her. Instead, all his super-dian-controlled perceptions were turned on, and he discovered some unusual situations in the ruins... He shook his hands, and a large number of metal fragments flew up from the ruins.
, then dozens, hundreds, and then thousands of metal statues floated up from the ruins! Their shapes are all different. If you compare them carefully, you can't even see any two identical ones, and the postures of the sculptures are also the same.
Different... Rong Xiang's mood is very subtle. Seeing these statues in various poses as if they were dying in the ruins, it feels like what he pulled out is a corpse!
"Rong Xiang!" Rose exclaimed at this time. She immediately projected a light screen in front of Rong Xiang and said: "There are actually biological organ structures inside these metal 'statues'!"
What is displayed on the light screen is the image of the 'statue' they picked up first, but at this time it shows a perspective view... It is really visible to the naked eye, and there is still something in the body of this 'statue'
A complete life structure!
"Were they...were they directly sealed with metal?" Rong Xiang thought that these 'statues' were so lifelike, and he couldn't help feeling a little chilly in his heart. But he felt something was wrong, it seemed that even if someone wanted to
You can do cruel things by pouring so many corpses into metal, right?
"No, their organs are also full of metallic reactions... So unless the intelligent life in this civilization is so boring and willing to sculpt these details, or these so-called 'sculptures' are what we have been looking for here.
Intelligent life on this planet!" Rose gave her conclusion. Although it sounds very incredible, from the information obtained so far, it seems to be the closest to the truth.
"Metal life?" Rong Xiang found it incredible. He asked, "Then there is no biomass left in their bodies?"
"These alloys can hinder my biological detectors unless we open one of them for 'anatomical' research." Rose said in a cold tone. Even Rose was very indifferent to this kind of thing... Human beings can go through hardships in the stars.
After re-emerging from the Middle Ages, it is natural that they have experienced countless times of 'picking up garbage' and dissecting alien corpses. Therefore, every human being takes this kind of thing very lightly, otherwise how could the Immortal civilization community where human beings are located...
Are humans almost the only family left?
"Then let's dissect one and take a look." Rong Xiang naturally had no objection to this.
However, he does not need to carry out the specific operations. Naturally, collection robots will come here later to collect corpse samples. Rong Xiang and Rose continue to go deep into the community of planetary thrusters... As they go deeper and deeper
I also saw more and more metal lizard-man corpses. They all looked lifelike like metal statues but actually showed no signs of life.
As he got closer to the largest planetary thruster in the center, Rong Xiang also saw a complete city structure. These metal lizard men actually built the city around the super reactor of the planetary thruster, and seemed completely unafraid of the super reactor.
The horrific radiation and heat released?
"Of course they are not afraid. In fact, after my scanning and simulation, this super reactor has no isolation measures at all..." Rose said something astonishing: "In other words, this reactor directly uses the infinite heat generated during its operation.
and radiation are emitted into this city!”
"One more thing." Rong Xiang also said after observation: "It seems that the corpses on the periphery of the city are very thin, while the corpses closer to the core of the city appear stronger and taller?"
"Are you kidding? This is a life that relies on radiation and high temperature to survive?" Rose, as an artificial intelligence that should be calm, actually took the lead and exclaimed as if it had 'lost its mind'.
Let the robots search it thoroughly. I feel that there should be something valuable to us in this completed city... Maybe the technological level of this civilization is not as good as humans, but I think their alternative life forms must be
