Chapter 224: Spectators
"What's that? What is that? ”
Dr. Hook stared intently at the center of the screen, the mysterious crystal he had been staring at a few days ago disappeared, he didn't even see how it moved, as if it appeared in the solar system out of thin air, it suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and then Dr. Hook frantically searched all corners of the solar system for its traces, but found nothing, he didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing, the good thing was because if it disappeared, Star City would be safe from now on, although it gave up a lot of things, and suffered a lot of damage, But if you can survive, the bad thing is ...... Humanity has lost another opportunity to observe other civilizations. Dr. Hook's proposal to the upper echelons never passed, and he suspected that the arrogant guys hadn't even looked at it.
But just a few hours ago, he had spotted the mysterious crystal again, this time in orbit close to Neptune, and it was moving at this speed, but in addition to the mysterious crystal, there was another piece of news that shocked Dr. Hook, and around the strange crystal, he saw a large number of moving points of light.
The speed of those things and the interference of the surrounding radio waves were so severe that it was difficult to get clear images with radio telescopes, and it took Dr. Hook a lot of effort to capture them, but it didn't matter, the content of the pictures was so amazing that he once again pushed his limits, he couldn't believe what he was seeing, and his hands trembled as he picked up the picture, so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"This is a spaceship?" The answer is undeniable, these fast-moving little things, from that point of view, are man-made, and even have designs familiar to man, such as the sharp warship heads, weapon firing ports, and jet thrusters that glow with a dazzling blue light.
"Who's up there? Why are they at war with the Crystals? Are they the same alien civilization that hijacked the Earth before? No...... It's not like that, although their ship design is very advanced, it is still within the scope of human understanding, and the mysterious cube many years ago is far beyond human comprehension, why is their technology so similar to that of humans? Or ......"
Dr. Hook's mind thought quickly, he suddenly thought of a possibility, and the possibility that best explained the situation in front of him, he was actually one of the few people in the know, and because of his identity, he was not persecuted by the upper echelons, he had participated in the work of parsing the mysterious code, and knew that there was a planet that suddenly appeared more than thirty light years away, and it was suspected that the Earth that had been taken away was very similar in size and composition, and no one had ever found this planet in this location before, it seemed to appear out of thin air......
If this assumption is true, then these mysterious warships are likely to belong to human forces! It's the people who were taken away years ago who are back!
This idea made Dr. Hook very excited, no matter what the other party's position is, at least they are still humans, the two sides can still communicate, and they are now fighting with the crystals, during this time, Starshine City will not be attacked again, people's hearts can be temporarily relaxed, if they win, then the problem will naturally be solved.
"It's not going to work on those short-sighted fools, you're going to have to rely on yourself." The usually suave old scholar was also angry and scolded, and he took advantage of the security net loophole in the core area to enter the internal network of the upper layer.
Without doing anything, Dr. Hook ventured into the experimental Super Telescope, and with the help of the machine installed in the unmanned space station, he finally got a clear view of the battle over there.
The small warships on the screen kept circling around the crystal, this time passed very peacefully, the crystalline and the fleet did not attack each other, but soon the fleet took the lead, they began to bombard the crystalline with something similar to an energy weapon, the effect seemed to be very effective, under the high-intensity bombardment, the crystal's body quickly shattered, shrunk, and finally left a blood-red core.
Dr. Hook recorded all this, he didn't plan to report it to the higher-ups, those idiots wanted to hide away from the same way back then, he had to find a way to get in touch with them himself, in less than a century, their technological development actually reached this level, and they fought the crystals in a frontal battlefield without fighting back here, compared to Starshine City, who could only abandon the pawn like a gecko, after they left the solar system...... What exactly went through?
"No, you can't go in...... Dr. also ...... Yes! ”
While Dr. Hook was engrossed in observing the battle, there was a commotion outside the institute, as if something was going on, and soon the door to the room was violently pushed open, and before the old man could react, he fell to the ground with a thud, as if he had been punched in the abdomen, and the old man was breathing rapidly, his eyes rolled and his whole body convulsed, and he completely lost his ability to resist.
Two men in black uniforms walked over, one of them proudly turned the *** in his hand, and the other walked behind the old man and quickly took out handcuffs to restrain him.
"You ...... Who is it...... How dare you break into my research institute? Dr. Hook slowly regained a little strength and confronted him weakly, he was clasped by the shoulders of one of the tall men, his hands could not move, the pain in his abdomen was getting worse, and he felt the pain with every word.
"Huh? Still ask us? Do you know what the crime is for you to hack into the central network? The *** man's tone was cold, and his eyes swept over the old man and the people in the research institute outside.
"Let me go! Otherwise, it will be too late! Dr. Hook cried out in pain, but was punched in the mouth.
"Tell the Inquisitor something, let's go!"
Before being half-dragged and half-pulled out of the room by the two of them, Dr. Hook saw the last look at the screen, his pupils suddenly shrank, and the crystals that had been pressed and beaten before suddenly counterattacked, countless crystal chains grew rapidly at unimaginable speeds, and the speed of wild growth was even faster than the speed of the battleship's fire and destruction, and soon the group of small warships closest to the crystals were bound by the crystal chains, and the sharp spikes were rapidly proliferating on the ship.
"Damn...... How can this be......"
The two men didn't care how the old man struggled, they forcibly dragged him outside, grabbed him and threw him behind the car, clapped his hands and left.
