Mars The Shattered Dreams of the Old God Yaramus

The huge thing in the dark ravine became increasingly clear under the light.

Xian Qianhua thought it was an ancient giant, or perhaps the ancestors of Mars that they had been searching for for many years but had never seen their true form. However, when she really got closer, she found that it was just a mysterious creature with a body structure similar to that of a human. It

It was obviously broken. The chest was collapsed, the head was broken, and all the movable joints were filled with a crystalline substance, making it impossible to move.

When Yan Sichen found Xian Qianhua, she had already climbed to the head of the mysterious creature.

"Hey!? Did you find anything?"

Yan Sichen asked.

Xian Qianhua was studying the brain-like structure of these mysterious creations, but found that it was not like any brain-like operating core that Xian Qianhua had come into contact with. Generally speaking, with current human technology, there are three branches in intelligent creation.

The first branch and the most traditional branch is the built-in thinking chip in the intelligent object. This kind of thinking chip is divided into two types, one is the independent thinking core body, and the other is the sub-series thinking core body.

The former can independently support the operation of a smart creation, but since computing power is directly proportional to energy consumption, the computing power is usually relatively limited. Therefore, smart creations with independent cores are either extremely powerful, or they are just as messy as a bumper car at home.

The sweeping robot crashed.

The latter is just a bridge device, which mainly realizes the high intelligence and low power consumption of intelligent creation through cloud computing power sharing. However, the cloud is not fully covered, at least in some special environments, this bridge device

The work efficiency of the sub-series of thinking core subjects will be greatly reduced. Therefore, usually, only in super cities will you see a large number of such intelligent creations that obey the unified dispatch of the city's main thinking core, such as driverless cars, aircraft and some

Order Omnic.

The second branch completely challenges tradition.

As the second generation of Sinan comes online, humankind's high-end think tanks are gradually improving, and information is being interacted and calculated at all times. Relying on the transcendence of the computing architecture, the "brain-like nerve" device came into being.

However, "brain-like nerve" devices have always been a limited technology in the medical field. They are usually used to serve those who have acquired physical disabilities. By combining brain-like nerves with mechanical prostheses, a disabled person can return to normal, and even have better health than ordinary people.

Ability.

The reason why the second branch is said to challenge tradition is that although "brain-like nerves" are strictly prohibited from spreading outside the medical field internationally, this technology has quietly flowed into the military and "superhuman" transformation.

Field. With the assistance of "brain-like nerve" devices, some people can directly bridge their brains with the thinking core of pure numerical codes, thus possessing extraordinary thinking and reaction capabilities.

Therefore, internationally, the second branch of intelligent creation has always been a taboo word.

As for the third category, Xian Qianhua doesn’t know much about it.

But since she began to study and explore the relics of these Martian ancestors on Mars, she discovered that among the technologies of the Martian ancestors, a technology that is translated as "crystalline thinking" has unimaginable power. It can almost be said that

It is one of the greatest technologies created by the ancestors of Mars, and it is even very likely to reveal the truth about the birth of the ancestors of Mars and their destination after leaving Mars.

But for Xian Qianhua and the others, even if they were given another one thousand years to learn all the knowledge on earth, this kind of technology would still be useless. Because in Xian Qianhua's view, it couldn't be regarded as technology at all.

But... sorcery?

"Same as before, maybe you will be more interested in a broken head and some crystallized thinking brain tissue that is about to become dregs." Xian Qianhua clapped her hands and stood up.

Upon hearing this, Yan Sichen immediately climbed up the body of the giant creature.

When he came to the inside of the broken head, Yan Sichen saw densely packed crystalline materials. Unfortunately, they were all broken and looked more like garbage than the things Yan Sichen had found in other excavation sites before.

"At least it shows that 'they' tried to create something, and it was also in human form." Yan Sichen said with a smile.

Xian Qianhua shrugged and looked up.

I don’t know how long I have been falling since I fell from that door. The most important thing now is to find a way back.

"I'll go over there and have a look." After Xian Qianhua said that, she activated the auxiliary flight wing and flew deeper into the darkness. Yan Sichen had long been accustomed to Xian Qianhua's being alone and was not worried that anything would really happen to her.

But less than a second after Xian Qianhua took off, a light suddenly flashed in the darkness. Then Xian Qianhua's face changed, and she immediately twisted her body and launched an airborne blaster!

When it hit the ground, there was only a loud "bang" sound, and the light fell in the direction where Yan Sichen came from. There seemed to be a violent explosion without fire in the darkness! The entire underground structure was shaking continuously.

Yan Sichen's expression changed and he was no longer interested in studying what these things were. He immediately leaned towards Xian Qianhua and activated the shield device on his arm.

"Are you okay?!" Yan Sichen asked with concern.

Xian Qianhua shook her head: "It's okay, but it doesn't look very safe here..."

Yan Sichen looked towards the direction of the attack. In the darkness, a huge silhouette was stuck in the crack of the rock, with only half of its head exposed. Judging from the silhouette scan comparison, it should be the giant creation they just discussed.

is a thing.

"It's not very safe..." Yan Sichen lowered his head and said: "That thing is stuck in the gap, and the attack angle will be accordingly limited. If you believe me, we will rush forward from both sides later, one on the left and the other on the right, to find the right spot.

The angle should be able to break through."

Xian Qianhua had no objection, but her beautiful smash just now had damaged the auxiliary flight wing. Now she could only use the kinetic energy assist device of the exoskeleton to rush forward on foot. The risk factor was too great.

"I'll go to the left." Xian Qianhua thought for a while and finally decided to take the risk.

Yan Sichen nodded, took off the shield and handed it to Xian Qianhua, saying: "Then I'll go to the right." After saying that, he rushed out without waiting for Xian Qianhua to react.

Xian Qianhua, who was holding the shield device, hesitated to speak. In the end, she could only silently accept Yan Sichen's kindness.

The two ran wildly in the darkness, while the big man stuck in the rock gap kept trying to attack. Although there was no light in the darkness, the sound of explosions was indeed heard. At first, Yan Sichen and Xian Qianhua were a little embarrassed because they underestimated them.

The strength of this mysterious creature that had been stuck in the crevice of the rock for an unknown number of years directly caused them to almost lose their lives as soon as they started taking action.

Fortunately, when they came down from a high place, there were many natural protrusions on the ground that could be used as bunkers. Yan Sichen and Xian Qianhua were veterans who had accumulated rich experience in actual combat, so they had no danger in the end.

When the two of them met in the blind spot area where the mysterious creature attacked, the attack stopped accordingly.

Looking back, the more than 100 meters they came from had been riddled with holes. Fortunately, they both made it through safely. Xian Qianhua looked up at the mysterious creature stuck in the rock crevice and said, "What if?"

If I get too excited, remember to mock me and let me cool down."

Yan Sichen's heart rate also accelerated at this moment.

This is their first attempt to contact the creation of an extraterrestrial intelligent civilization since they have been exploring Mars for so long. The key is that it can still operate normally.

"Don't be too happy. This thing has been stuck here for so many years and it's still running. I'm sure it won't be a good partner, let alone whether it can open its brain." Yan Sichen didn't mean to throw cold water on it.

Xian Qianhua also knew it. She nodded, took a deep breath, and then began to try to climb this mysterious creation.

It is about thirty meters high, with most of its body stuck in the rock cracks. Its broken arms are missing, and only a small part of its head is exposed. It took Xian Qianhua and Yan Sichen more than ten minutes to explore the back of the head of this mysterious creature while ensuring safety.

parts.

The only sound left in the dark and narrow space was the heavy breathing of Xian Qianhua and Yan Sichen.

Under the mask, Xian Qianhua couldn't hide her excitement and said: "Can we go home?"

Yan Sichen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Maybe, but maybe it will be an empty box with nothing after opening it."

This time Yan Sichen did it on purpose.

Xian Qianhua rolled her eyes at him, then took off the tools and started to dismantle the head of this mysterious creature.

The head, which is the size of a Beetle, is covered with a special alloy. After preliminary testing, it is found that under the alloy covering is a complete crystallized brain. Although Xian Qianhua still doesn’t know how to extract data from this kind of brain, Mai

Taking the first step still made her extremely excited.

Yan Sichen assisted at the side.

The two worked in silence for several hours.

Xian Qianhua gave up.

She looked at the "brain case" which was still as bright as new and said angrily: "Isn't this thing cast in one piece? Can it really be opened?"

Yan Sichen has been sitting silently working on material analysis. When Xian Qianhua tried hard to open the head of the mysterious creation, he conducted a comprehensive analysis of the composition of the mysterious creation. He found that this alloy seemed to be formed by a strong mutual force field.

Cold forged.

What does strong mutual force field cold forging mean?

Generally speaking, the metallurgical technology mastered by humans is to melt metal, then purify it, and then adjust the element ratio of the synthetic metal according to actual needs to ensure that the alloy has various properties. For example, the most common stainless steel is made by purifying iron and adding a certain proportion of

Made of carbon.

But cold forging is completely different.

First of all, it almost does not require heating and melting of the original metal, and there is no need to consider the melting points of different metal elements. However, if you want to purify these metals and cold forge them, you need to use another force to melt the elements.

The atomic chain is broken and reorganized.

It sounds like the car is carrying an atomic bomb. Because atomic bombs release energy by breaking atoms.

However, in theory, cold forging technology is a scientific and technological art that is free from the edge of atomic fission. The purpose is to strengthen the strong interaction between atoms of different metal elements, so as to obtain an unprecedented super-strength alloy or alloy without resorting to thermal melting.

Super performance alloy.

At present, the cold forging technology that humans have mastered is still at the entry level, but even so, super-performance alloys synthesized through cold forging technology have become the siege ram at the forefront of scientific exploration. Many high-precision equipment require the use of cold forging

Strong mutual alloys made by technology, such as the shell of the geocentric exploration ship in the "Sunset Project", the spacecraft components of the "Explorer" project, and the "Dyson sphere" that may appear in the future.

In short, things created by strong mutual field cold forging technology are indestructible to ordinary people!

Not to mention relying on manpower or some simple tools, even a nuclear bomb explosion may not be able to penetrate this alloy.

Yan Sichen came to his senses after hearing this. He had known this would be the result.

But he had no intention of mocking Xian Qianhua at this time, that would be too stupid.

So he said: "Unless the 'crystalline wisdom core' they control can withstand the torture of cold forging process, otherwise this thing cannot be integrated. There must be some switches and the like, we can look for it."
