Chapter 670: Monuments on the White Planet
The star system where the new empire is located, a white planet far away from the stars, white as if decorated with swan down, looking at the mountains, rivers, and plains, a snow-white, this is a world of ice and snow.
The two gatherers brawked through a blizzard on the white snowfield, the dry snow flakes hitting their insulated shells before sliding to the ground.
"Where are the coordinates?"
"38 degrees 7 degrees east longitude, 24 degrees 9 degrees north latitude, twelve kilometers left from our position, and we are almost there."
"The planet's chaotic magnetic field interferes with radio communications, and it's a hassle to determine the location."
Hearing this, the collectors involuntarily complained that the tilt angle of the planet's magnetic axis changes very quickly, and the rotation speed is also high, which causes the magnetic field of the entire planet to tend to be disordered.
When the two collectors landed, due to the disturbance of the magnetic field, they had a slight deviation in the landing site, and this deviation was amplified at the high rotation speed of the planet, resulting in the two collectors landing more than 40 kilometers away from the original landing site.
Now they have braved a dry ice blizzard and traveled more than 30 kilometers.
"I should have let my fellow people colonize this planet in the first place, and transform the magnetic axis of this planet, so that there would be no trouble like now."
"Isn't this worried about harming the experimental relics left by the Hui civilization during the colonization process? Moreover, at that time, most of the group's energy was focused on fighting the Coordination Committee, and there was no leisure and spare energy. ”
After about five kilometers of continuous travel, the two gatherers felt that the wind was weakening, and the dry ice blizzard finally stopped, although the sky was still covered with dry snow and ice, piling up above the two gatherers, like two white hats.
"Pay more attention to your feet when walking, these dry ice are very soft in some places, and once you step on the air and sink into it, it will feel like falling into a deep pit."
As they made their way to their destination, one of the gatherers reminded their fellow tribe that the snow-white ground they were treading on was not made of frozen water, but was made of carbon dioxide, but that what could be seen on the snow was also seen on dry ice.
Dry snow covers the existing holes and builds natural traps, and the soft snow is difficult to support the weight of the individual, and once you step on it, you will fall directly into the hole under the snow, which is very dangerous.
Of course, 'very dangerous' is the level of wrestling for gatherers relative to humans.
"I didn't even know there was such a wide river on this planet."
The gatherers were blocked by a wide river, which was not turbulent, but it was wide, about 150 meters.
It is a river made of liquid helium, and even if the collectors have hardy genes, they dare not set foot in it, and the low temperature of liquid nitrogen will kill them.
"The white background of the planet is too strong, and it is normal not to notice it in the near orbit of the planet."
"How are we going to get there?"
"I'm afraid it's not good to go straight to the past, these liquid helium will freeze our cells to death."
"It looks like we need to adjust our genes first." TXT Book House
Just as one of the gatherers was about to genetically modify itself in place, it was stopped by its kind.
"No, don't bother, we've used our fangs to transform a chunk of dry ice into a platform that floats on liquid helium and can be rowed over like a boat."
Liquid nitrogen as a fluid will also have the characteristics of fluids, two collectors use the charged monomolecular blade to cut a large piece into a bowl, place it in liquid nitrogen, and then use the dry ice slurry to cut across this river of liquid nitrogen, which is not turbulent.
After several treks, the gatherers finally arrived at their planned landing site, a plain of dry ice that looked like a flat blank sheet of paper.
In the distance, a hill can be seen, and at the bottom of the hill is a hole with a diameter of six meters.
Descending deeper into the cavern and diagonally down, the gatherers reached their destination, where a building identical to the one found on the Carter's side was revealed.
This is the building of the Hui civilization, a monument that has existed for 800 million years.
"Here we are."
"It's a lot bigger than I thought."
After some observation, one of the gatherers expressed his impression that the Hui Civilization monument in front of him was much larger and more complete than the one found on the Carter side, which was beyond the initial expectations of the two gatherers.
"It's normal, low temperature will reduce the activity of molecules, plus being frozen, natural erosion has little impact on the experimental relics of this Hui civilization, the cave we came in was dug by the same people who came before, before that, this relic of the Hui people was completely sealed, if the environment around the ruins can remain unchanged, the ruins will remain the same for hundreds of millions of years."
After thinking about it, one of the gatherers asked his kindred, "What did the people of the people who landed on the planet find in the first place?" ”
"No, they just stayed outside the ruins, and at that time, the war with the Coordination required a lot of materials, so they didn't go deep into the ruins, marking the planet as indismantled and going to other planets to collect resources."
Originally, the gatherers originally went to the star system where the new empire was located, in order to rescue and recover the seeds of the empire, and at the same time, they also surveyed the relics of the Hui civilization in that star system, but they were diverted most of their attention and resources by those countries and forces in the gate world.
The exploration of the monuments of the Hui civilization was also temporarily put on hold.
"So we don't know anything about this ruin?" The gatherer asks his kindred.
"That's pretty much it, so be careful when exploring, because it's not sure what will happen, whether the ruins will have the kind of base defense system like in the Seren sci-fi movies and the like."
The technology of the Hui civilization is above the collectors, and now this relic is so well preserved, the collectors dare not guarantee that the laboratory of the Hui civilization has been paralyzed, after all, there are examples of star gates and spiritual domains in front of them, and it turns out that as long as the Hui civilization wants to, then it is not a big problem for them to let their technology continue for 800 million years.
In places like laboratories, there are generally processing mechanisms to prevent experiments from happening unexpectedly, such as collectors, after the empire became vassals, the collectors started a second exploration of the spiritual realm, and in order to protect this operation, they planted several black hole bombs in the place connected to the spiritual realm, once something was wrong, the collectors would activate the black hole bomb regardless of it, and blow up the connected passage with a black hole bomb.
The Hui Civilization is smarter than the Gatherers, so it is certain that similar mechanisms will be placed in the lab, so the Gatherers should be careful when exploring - including the two Gatherers, all the Collectors who know about this Hui Civilization Lab think so.
"Understood."
