Chapter 116: Under the Metal Sky

The huge statues in Qin Yi's memory are always linked to ancient things, the stone statues on the Resurrection Island, the statues of Apollo in Greece, the giant lighthouses on the Aegean Sea and the colossus on the sea, only civilizations in a state of confusion and ignorance will spend a lot of energy and place their affection on these unknowable mysterious powers. Modern man has the ability to build bigger buildings, people have built a thousand stories of buildings, and they have sprinted to 2,000 floors, but no one will go out of their way to build miracle works that they can't do thousands of years ago.

What he didn't expect was that the largest statue he had ever seen in his life was under the thick metal stratum of Dyson balls.

A huge gravitational body creature with the same form as Xiuer floats in mid-air, and its tentacles are shaped with unknown transparent materials around it, the huge core is made of metal, and the pig iron-like blackness is like a cold and silent void, Qin Yi knows it, although the gravitational body creatures all look similar, but in the film reflected by Xiuer, only the origin core is completely black, which is different from all gravitational body creatures.

This statue of the Origin Core is like an irregular giant pillar, standing on the metal ground, with a silver-white metal sky above its head, this is the interior of the Dyson sphere, the whole energy station is like a cabbage made of special metal, one layer of metal earth wraps another layer, the city is built between them, the earth is not completely parallel to each other, but maintains some subtle angles, they are staggered and folded, this is a perfect and futuristic beauty.

Qin Yi and other scientific researchers were taken down here by the flesh pillar creatures, the same as when they got off the battleship, they took the "elevator" composed of a gravitational platform, this time the distance was several times that of the last time, this "elevator" is not straight up and down, it shuttles through the layers of the city, sometimes sagging up and down, sometimes flying forward, the proportion of carbon-based organisms in the alliance is very small, so there is no oxygen between the cities, and the gravitational force is set slightly higher than on the earth, which is a value acceptable to all member civilizations, A small number of races that can't adapt to gravity can only use special tools, just like Qin Yi and them are now.

Since there is no oxygen, they need to rely on special devices to breathe, and they don't need a big thing like an oxygen tank, the flesh pillar creature only gives them a metal piece the size of a fingernail to stick to their mouth or trachea, and then they can breathe normally, and their lungs are still empty, as if they are holding their breath underwater. The difference is that how long you hold your breath will not suffocate, Qin Yi guessed that this flake has been connected to their blood vessels, replacing lung function, directly binding a large amount of oxygen to the hemoglobin in their body.

But how did this thing manage to be so efficient? Secondly...... How does it store such a large amount of oxygen? Qin Yi couldn't think of it, he tried to disassemble the internal structure of this thing, but it was too fine, and the fine and complex structure on it could be seen with the naked eye, I am afraid that there was no way to analyze it without a professional instrument.

The statue of the first core is not the only colossus, Qin Yi has seen a lot of such towering sculptures on the way to the earth, all of them are behemoths, none of them are similar, or rather, none of them are of the same race, think about it carefully, he almost understands that each statue is a great pioneer of a member of the alliance, and this more than 100 colossus statues standing under the metal sky symbolizes the unity and glory of the alliance.

The Alliance's technology is not something that can be learned at a glance, the Flesh Pillar creatures take them on a tour of food supply centers, transportation hubs, and urban folding systems, yes, these vertical and horizontal metal lands are not fixed, the stars inside the Dyson sphere will constantly move, and the Dyson sphere will constantly adjust its state in order to absorb more of the overflow energy and not be damaged by the violent activity of the stars, including these bulky colossus, everything here can be moved.

Even so, they still benefited a lot, what these researchers saw and heard here is enough for them to study for the rest of their lives, and it may take decades to digest what they recorded today, Qin Yi didn't bring anything, didn't remember anything, and the others were desperately taking pictures, and when he was struggling to write, he followed behind the flesh pillar creature empty-handed, occasionally chatting a few words, occasionally looking at the metal earth outside the "elevator", looking at the magnificent and neat city seemed to be thinking about something.

He won't do this kind of thing again, Qin Yi desperately intercepted the technology leaked from the white cube before, although it was successful, but the efforts made at that time were worthless now, a roar of the moon spacecraft made his results come to naught, what they see now is indeed very valuable, but who knows the final result of the negotiation? What's the use of them desperately joting down these things if Mark asks for more benefits from the Alliance, or simply gets technical support from the Alliance? It's better to take a good look and feel it.

There is nothing in case ...... Mark must have thought so. Qin Yi and Mark have nothing to do with each other, but he understands Mark, from the asteroid incident, to later standing on a high platform to become the savior of the people, and now he has become a negotiator, Mark is not simple, he is not highly educated, but he is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very scheming, he has deterred the other party on the battlefield, Mark will definitely open his mouth to coerce the other party.

"We're coming, it's the last stop on this visit." The flesh-pillar creature stepped down the gravity platform, and in front of it was an empty plaza with logo-like patterns painted on the metal floor, making it look like a tarmac.

"There's nothing here."

"We've got to do some preparation." The flesh pillar creature said and took out the small packages one by one, Qin Yi didn't know how many things could be stored under its writhing tentacle pile, and after distributing it to everyone, it walked to the wall and pulled down a lever.

A violent tremor came from under his feet, and the ground, which had not been a crack in the ground, actually opened, not like a door to both sides, nor in a spiral shape, but suddenly spread out from a dot in the middle, like a drop of black ink dripping on white paper.

An indescribable heat wave poured up as the floor disappeared, the heat boiling blood almost instantly, the skin evaporated, and there was nothing below except a red planet that emitted terrible heat, and the bright light churned like a sea of flames.

They've reached the lowest end of the Dyson sphere, and below them are the stars in the cage.
