Asteroid belt spring area-rain area.

After more than a month of intense construction of nanorobots, using the debris fragments around it, a super-large base with a diameter of 1,500 meters is floating on the asteroid belt.

There are also Phoenix satellites in charge of guarding around, and there are already three Huo Quai-class battleships.

The spherical spacecraft was wrapped inside the scientific research base, and a large number of monitoring instruments monitored the spherical spacecraft around the clock.

All the operators and scientific research personnel are on a transport ship on the side of the scientific research base, and for this alien civilization, the scientific committee has formulated very comprehensive and strict research management regulations.

After all, no one knows what is hidden on the spherical spaceship, and if you don't be careful, you stupidly use a real person to contact it, that's not research, it's a gamble.

If the neutrino detector is of the highest precision, Ma Zhili has observed the material of the spacecraft's shell and interior, the peculiar 16 neutron degenerate material, although only a thin layer, but none of the researchers present take it lightly.

They used everything currently available to humans, whether it was lasers, nanobots, or kinetic impacts, which were difficult to break through the ship's hull.

As for why it can be known that there is only a thin layer, it is that Ma Zhili calculated that the spacecraft has only one layer of 16 neutron degenerate material by weighing the spacecraft.

Because the density of 16-neutron degenerate materials is very large, the same is one cubic meter, and the weight of steel is only about 0.24% of that of 16-neutron degenerate materials.

If the spherical spacecraft were composed entirely of this material, it could weigh as much as 300 million tons.

However, the measured weight of the spacecraft is only 4,372 tons, which is too different from the estimated 300 million tons.

The most plausible explanation is that the 16-neutron degenerate material has only a thin layer, which is only used as a defense and skeleton support for the spacecraft's hull.

Judging from the material analysis of the tear, Ma Zhili's guess is further proved.

……

Ma Zhili's stand-in robot floated with the three of them towards the gap in the spherical spaceship.

Today they came to crack the hatch of the passage, and Sim Baker, who previously worked at the Institute of Life Sciences, also came here through a stand-in robot.

It's just that he seems to be a little hard, although there is artificial intelligence assistance, but because the scientific research base in the asteroid belt is 110 million kilometers away from the blue star, the communication is delayed for more than ten minutes.

So using a stand-in robot, it will appear very stiff and uncoordinated, but now there is no way, for safety, they can only use this way.

"Sim, we're here." Ma Zhili stopped.

Looking up at the spherical spaceship, Sim Baker woke up to the fact that the lizardmen's biochemical technology was so powerful, it turned out that they had obtained an alien spaceship.

He is also very interested in the Nibelons now, after all, he is a German, and the Nibelon myth is their German mythology.

It's just that he didn't expect that myths and legends turned out to be realistic references, and they were aliens.

Entering one of the passages, the lights on their bodies automatically illuminated, and the passages were smooth up and down like mirrors, appearing to be integrated.

The round hatch was right in front of you.

"Sim, give it a try!" Ma Zhili gave up the position to the other party.

"Okay." Sim Baker concentrated, controlling the exoskeleton armor on the side.

Inside the exoskeleton is a cloned lizardman, a technique developed by Sim Baker.

As for cloning technology, the new human beings have not been applied to the human body on a large scale, and only artificial stem cells and artificial organs have been developed.

On the contrary, the aquaculture industry is trying to use this technology to make artificial beef and the like, which is ready to be used to supply outer space.

The clone lizardman has been controlled with brainwave glasses, and his entire memory is blank, so Sim Baker can easily control him.

Sure enough, when the lizardman approached the hatch, the detection equipment detected an X-ray signal and a microwave signal near the hatch.

Ma Zhili and Sim Baker glanced at each other, and then Ma Zhili nodded cautiously.

The lizardman stood for more than ten seconds, and suddenly a virtual floating window panel popped up in front of him, and a line of unknown text appeared on the panel, as well as 16 buttons, and something similar to a countdown.

[Is it a key?] ］

[Highly likely.] Ma Zhili activated the base's supercomputer and did his best to decipher the words.

After 24 seconds, the virtual floating panel disappeared on its own.

Sim Baker manipulated the lizardman out of the hatch, waiting for the results of the supercomputer's decipherment, which the researchers had anticipated.

But they are helpless now, the password must not be tried randomly, in case there is a mistake on the spaceship how many times the setting directly self-destructs, it will not be the end of the calf.

Soon the supercomputer deciphered the possible meaning of the panel symbol, and Ma Zhili did not have much hope.

[Let's talk about it in our lab.] ］

With a dozen symbols, even top linguists have a headache, and now it seems that they can only use a forced breakthrough.

But the strength of the degenerate material, the new humans have no way to break it now.

What to do?

For a moment, the researchers were at a loss.

Now they are facing this spherical spaceship, it is simply a turtle shell, and it is a degenerate turtle shell, and they have no way to start.

Even if it was to be bombarded by the neutron stream, this turtle shell was still unscathed, which worried Ma Zhili and others.

As the only person in the know, it is estimated that it is that Adam, but now that guy has been bombed into slag, even if it can be cloned, what about the memory?

No solution!

Unless the new humans develop degenerate materials now, it will be possible to break through the turtle shell in front of them.

Ma Zhili himself is engaged in the research of neutron degenerate materials, and the research progress of new humans in this area can only be described by an idiom - it is difficult to move an inch.

More than half a month later.

Machiri ventured to manipulate the clone lizardman and entered a key to confirm the Nibelon word that had been mistyped.

As for the second attempt, Ma Zhili and others did not dare to carry it out at all.

Generally speaking, if the password is entered incorrectly, there will be no countermeasures the first time, and the danger will skyrocket from the second time.

If there were antimatter bombs or something like that on the Nibelons' spaceship, the threat would be terrifying.

……

After listening to Ma Zhili's report, Huang Mingzhe thought for a while and ordered: "Old Ma, you should think of other ways next, don't try the password." ”

"Chairman, I still have this bit of proportion." Ma Zhili hurriedly replied like a chicken pecking rice.

After explaining the relevant work, Ma Zhili left in a hurry.

Huang Mingzhe was the only one left in the office, silently thinking about the Nibelon's spaceship, and although he very much hoped to crack the secret, he knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

"Iron also needs to be hard." Talking to himself, he wasn't sad that he couldn't crack the Nibelon ship.

After all, alien technology can be obtained and studied, and it is not a big deal if it cannot be obtained.

The technological development of the new human race is better to be down-to-earth, and not to think about pie in the sky all day long.

Turning on the virtual display, he quickly flipped through the progress of the Lunar Large Particle Collider project, which is what should be concerned now.
