As soon as half of the parliamentary words were spoken, they disappeared in front of me and Shandora again. This time it took a few seconds before they reappeared, and all over my body flashed continuously. I was a bit worried when I saw this situation: "That What ... are you okay? "

"It doesn't matter," the parliament still looked indifferent. "My data subject is placed on the planet, and the interference of the extension body on the network will not affect the subject. The data volume of the Yonder aggregate is too large, and We do n’t have the same advanced quality projection technology as you. If I want to appear in the far node of the network and be able to contact the material World, I can only use this with extremely high requirements for bandwidth and environment ... "Blink, disappear, re-start Appeared, the council then said: "... extended body technology."

Kokokina looks at his long-aparted and recently reunited old partner: "In fact, you don't have to use an extension body. If you use conventional projection, you can still see the scene."

"But I want to" touch "that thing in person, and want to know what kind of thing brought you such a catastrophe," the council smiled slightly, looking at the erratic face of Kokokina, "contact with the substance World , Is my only joy ... "

After three seconds, the council appeared to us again, and she looked at Lin Xue sincerely: "Which ... can you turn off the small device in your hand? Although you do n’t think it ’s ok, it still treats us Very fragile networks have a great impact. "

I glanced at Young Lady Lin and found that she was using the data terminal to play interstellar, and was connecting with the bubble: Suddenly she knew how frequent and abnormal interference was from the beginning, at the same time to the council Feeling deeply apologetic.

At this moment, the railcar that transported people between the space station and the large spaceship by the traction beam also reached the end smoothly. We felt a slight vibration under the body, and then the porthole next to it opened, and the outside was already spaceship Interior scene.

A group of people came outside, and there were already many staff members responding, a large part of their eyes were more or less stopped by them and Shandora, how to say, although now the Empire and the exiles The communication between them is moving towards normalization, but this cannot temporarily change the status of the Empire being a rare creature in exile in the eyes. It is indeed quite curious that we appear in front of them.

"Well, it looks ... an old spaceship." Lin Xue looked up and could not help mumbled. According to the history of exiles we know, this colonial giant ship should have been built when the fleet of exiles set sail. Tens of thousands of years old antiques, we can not help but admit that this is a very magnificent giant spaceship, if let earthling It may be shocked to see it, but it is undeniable that it is old and ruined. Severe traces of wear can be seen on the alloy ground of the port where the ship is anchored. Although this special metal never rusts, it has been devastated by years of erosion. The light in the wide mooring port is very uneven, and many places are even dim. The local artificial gravity has a deflection of at least five degrees, which makes people feel uncomfortable, and the atmospheric circulation here seems to have completely stopped. The low pressure is not like an environment prepared for living things. Most of the staff on site Wearing special fully enclosed work clothes: another small part is probably race special, which can survive under low pressure and oxygen-free environment.

"The Ankach series is the oldest colonial giant ship model. It was inexperienced at the beginning of construction. It has many design deficiencies. No one would think that its ecosystem needs to be maintained for so many years," said Kokokina, floating in We lead the way ahead, although this spiritual creature also has human-like limbs, but he does n’t seem to be used to walking, more like a wandering ghost, "In addition to our inexperience in the technology of ghost energy, Anka There have been several accidents on the He-5, and its ecosystem is the worst of all the giant ships. When it fled, the ship was already only one-sixth of the refuge. It survived. Ankahe 6, who was missing in the depths of the Void during the runaway of the Youneng furnace a hundred years ago, is actually lucky. "

How to say, my biggest problem when communicating with these exiles is that I will always fall into an embarrassing situation from time to time. Although the other party has no intentions at all, I do n’t have to take all the responsibilities, but it should be embarrassing. It ’s embarrassing at the time, which can only be said to be due to the personality-just like a real literary young man, even cursing the street ca n’t help but use parallel sentences ...

The long axis of Ankahe No. 5 is more than 100 kilometers long. The ship ’s passage is of course seven to eight transfers. The target warehouse is in the middle of the giant ship. It is definitely not possible to walk in the past, but because of the spaceship Transmission equipment failure, we can only take a small shuttle to pass. Passing through the gate of the surface area, you need to cross a large plain attached to the isolation bulkhead (this plain should be a residential and ecological area, but it has now become dead due to poisonous gas and pollution, and can only be seen through the porthole To the abandoned urban buildings and the scorched earth, and there are some twisted plant remains), and then from the 2nd Rank blockade wall, a big rift that does not look like the normal design directly flew directly into the intricate pipe network of the giant ship. Here, we finally arrived at the warehouse where "that thing" was stored after we crossed a small town that was built near the cooling core and still had faint lights.

Along the way, I saw a starship that was not so much a colonial ship, but rather a blast of spaceship wrecks. The cascading ecological zones, transportation networks and concentrated residential areas were shockingly ruined. I dare not imagine how they survived in this ecological environment in the last few hundred years of exile. The most sighing thing is the big hole in the middle of the 2nd Rank blockade wall. It was torn apart. At that time, two substance synthesis factories and a small residential area near the rift were instantly radiated into powdery crystalline substances. The remaining pollution has not been cleaned up until now. You can go anywhere, only risk life to live in Refuge, which is only one wall away from the deadly dust-these are all told by Kokokina on the road, he knows well about the accidents that have happened to every colonial ship of the Fifth Fleet Palm.

I do n’t know if the broken scene I saw along the way touched Shandora. Her face was not very beautiful. When the shuttle arrived at her destination, she whispered: "A'Jun, I am a bit Feeling restless. "

"Indeed, the situation of the Fifth Fleet is really ..."

"No, I don't mean that," Shandora's sounded in a spiritual connection. "What other reasons make me feel ... uncomfortable, maybe intuition, what's going to happen."

I looked at Shandora strangely, and then suddenly thought: As a history that has witnessed tens of millions of years (maybe longer?), I have been exposed to events that are more touching than exiles. There is almost no upper limit for calmness. The imperial Queen, Shandora may be so disoriented by seeing an abandoned ecological ship? Obviously impossible.

Just when I was going to ask further what happened, Kokokina suddenly said: "The one in front is."

Shandora waved her hand gently, not to worry about her, and then pulled me off the shuttle.

In front of everybody, there is a large group of metal structures that have been severely deformed and damaged, and the materials and functions cannot be seen at all. It is roughly square, with a side length of about ten meters. It stands like a small building in front of us. Its surface is covered with a twisted metal plate. Uneven parts of fragments are found under the broken metal plate. Its All parts are completely dark, but I do n’t know if this color was originally changed or it turned out to be like this. I ca n’t feel the remarkable energy response inside it. Although there is a small amount of radiation and secondary energy, it ca n’t reach “alive”. "To the extent, it looks like a scrap of scrap metal recovered from the battlefield. If there is anything to be noticed about, this alloy pimple is ugly enough.

"Uh, you said ... because you accidentally found this thing, and then the Melova people came over?"

I looked at Kokokina suspiciously, and suddenly felt things were a bit funny: I originally thought I would see some baby, such as the buzzing imperial high science and technology incombustible garbage, but didn't expect appeared in front of me only a ten meters Seeing the iron block inside, even the high-energy response is underpaid. Moreover, I observed the mechanical structure exposed under the damaged alloy shell, and found that their design was unusually thick benzene, not to mention compared with the science and technology of the Empire, and even compared with the spaceship of the Fifth Fleet. Although my own professional knowledge is not very superb ... well, I admit that my professional knowledge is nothing more than that, but because there are more common science and technology unconscious tricks, I am still a bit in related fields Resolvingly, the square debris in front of you is quite an old and backward product no matter how you look at it-most of its internal circuits are still connected by mechanical latches!

"History ... It ’s so far away that it ’s impossible to tell," Ojou-sama reached out and touched the shell of the thing, and immediately slammed, "DGod knows what is this was built in time, and I ’m afraid it should have disappeared according to the normal historical process. 'S stuff. "

"It's just a guess right now," Kokokina seems to have made a shrug, or maybe just waving a hand, "A statistician stumbled upon this. This unknown object was originally discovered outside the World barrier When we repaired a faulty node, we found that it was stuck in the base of the security station. Later, the maintenance team sent it to the research department to try to analyze its source. As a result, a few days later ... Those Melova people were appeared .. This unknown object was packaged with the scientific data and sent to spaceship. "

"It is also difficult to prove that Melova people are attracted to this thing." I frowned.

"But they chased the Ankahe No. 5 ship hard and tried to stop the ship with almost half of their strength, but at the critical moment they looked shrunken again, as if afraid of damaging something," Kokokina The three eyes at the same time lights up, showing his emotional excitement, "So we have always suspected that something on Ankahe 5 caught their attention, so we began to organize manual investigations of all the registered goods on Ankahe 5, Even one nail was not missed, and finally we found the only one that can't tell the origin ... "."

The description of Kokokina finally made me and Shandora pay attention to it. In this way, the action intentions of those Melova people are too obvious. There is no doubt that it was directed at the Ankahe No. 5 cargo, but just for this. Box?

"Did you not find any other suspicious items?" I looked at the vague figure of Kokokina with confidence.

Kokokina spread their hands: "All the goods transported by Ankah 5 have a list. Except for the unknown origin of this box, the rest are the resources we produced from our home planet in the past two hundred years, those things It is even less likely to be the culprit main culprit that brought Melova people in. And although this cube looks plain, it has a secret that we ca n’t explain at all: it appeared outside the World barrier, in other words, and was discovered by us Before, it has crossed Void. "

"But it does not have a structure that can be used for Void navigation." Shandora said frowningly, her eyes falling on the cube's twisted and broken shell and the complex mechanical structure exposed from under the shell, "No engine, no Order field shield generator, energy level is not enough ... so to say, either, it was thrown to your World by a larger carrier, and then attracted Melova people, or, it was a ship wrecked in Void The big spaceship parts came to you just by coincidence ... "

Then the Melova people were also attracted. No matter how they looked, the Fifth Fleet was lying seriously this time. So now there is one final question: what do those Melova people really like about this square?

I reached out and knocked on the metal shell of the cube, but the result was too much force, and a small piece of severely eroded metal debris fell off directly. I picked up the debris and squeezed it with my hand. I found that they might have seen their strength. The weakest of the interstellar alloys-I mean comparing it with other high-strength alloys made across the World civilization. If it is compared with those ordinary civilizations still trapped in their own Universe, the science and technology content of this block may also be called Be superb. After a simple judgment, I came to the conclusion that the material of the target is only ordinary material, and the science and technology level is not easy to say, but it is absolutely incomparable with the empire, and it will not exceed the Melova people who have almost learned a skill from the empire. The special energy response preliminarily ruled out the possibility of a baby in the metal shell. I turned my head and looked at Shandora: "Would you like to find someone to take it apart on the spot? It's all broken like this, I don't think you need to think about protection methods, the inside is probably complete mess."

"I ..." Shandora's responded strangely. From the beginning, she stared at the cube with a thoughtful look on her face. When she spoke, she seemed to be thinking of something else, "I don't know ... … But looking at it, I have a strange sense of familiarity ... "

"Be careful when dismantling," when I wanted to ask Shandora for further questions, Lin Xue suddenly said, "There seems to be something in it ... let me see it."

Ojou-sama said, leaned forward and pressed his hand on the surface of the square. The fundus emitted a slight white light and entered the Prophet mode, and I pinched the Shandora's hand with some worry, but suddenly found that the Aurelia on the other side also responded a little No: Like Shandora, she was staring at the square in a daze. The wings behind her were unconsciously swinging slightly, and she was completely enchanted.

"Kite? Kite?" I greeted Aurelia, "What's wrong with you?"

"your majesty ..." The other party recovered, and his wings shuddered gently. "Ah, sorry, I'm so distracted."

"You and the Shandora react strangely," I frowned, "Are you all right?"

"I do n’t know," Aurelia took a breath to restore his normal calmness. "I may have the same feeling as Shandora your majesty. Looking at this cube, I suddenly felt a strange sense of intimacy ... your majesty, Please don't be blinded by the appearance of this cube, maybe we need to treat this thing with caution, it seems that it can attract Melova people for no reason. "

at this moment Ojou-sama has finished her to scan work, leaning over with a weird expression: "Wood, this is a coffin."

I spoke with Shandora at the same time "Ah", and Lin Xue said again: "The coffin is either a tomb. I ca n’t see more of it. You know, I am a prophet, not an X-ray machine. Let the research center come. , Bring the finest dismantling equipment they can find, do n’t break the 'things' inside, there is a broken energy knot at the core of this cube, you need to pay special attention to it, in several other historical lines , The disassembly failure caused by this energy junction alone has reached more than ten times. "

I immediately contacted Shadow City and asked research center to organize a group of the most skilled technicians to come over immediately. According to Lin Xue's recommendations, we decided to dismantle this mysterious cube on site to increase the success rate.

The Parliament and Kokokina knew that things had progressed and we knew that we needed a quiet environment, so they ordered irrelevant personnel to evacuate the scene. Only the two of them stayed here with the agreement of Shandora's. Soon, the team of experts from Shadow City came to Ankah 5 with a full set of equipment, and the team was actually still an acquaintance: Victor or Tokvi or Ketowei or Keto.

By the way, he is leading the dismantling of Hessot, and the current Shadow City dismantling experts are all in his hands.

"Two your majestys, the main mother, Tokvi came to report!" The dark-skinned high-level technician saluted me and Shandora and Lin Xue, and then his eyes fell on the unknown cube. Sure enough, his reaction was just like Shandora just now. And the response of Aurelia is exactly the same: be preoccupied, thoughtful.

"your majesty, is this?" high-level technicians are puzzled. "There is a strange sense of familiarity, it seems that I have seen it before."

"This is a coffin," I exhaled, then quickly pointed at Lin Xue, "Yes, she said." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian .com) Voting recommendation and monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation.)
