Chapter 4: The Underground Path
A leaf-shaped, device-like object was discovered by Apo, and after careful scanning by Amber, it was determined that it was indeed a data terminal-like thing, some of the energy wiring inside it had been burned, but the other major core components were intact.
This damage is not difficult for Kunwu and them.
Kungo asked the JYS fleet to split up a part of it, simulate and repair the burned energy lines, and then through Awa's debugging, the energy of the Eternal Source was connected.
Soon, the data terminal brightened up, revealing a large string of words that Kungo couldn't read.
Amber could read it, however, because part of the text was in Lando.
"This should have been made with the help of the Empire, according to the rules of the Empire at that time, in addition to the native language of the vassal race, this system must also have a set of imperial Chinese interface!" Amber explained as she operated.
As he operated, the language on the data terminal was completely switched to Langdo.
This time, Kungo was able to understand, and after he fused with the Eternal Source, he inexplicably understood Lando, and could even speak Lando, which proved that his vocal structure was actually alienated from humans.
"Oh? Sure enough, it's underground. The planters had taken the entire shelter underground. This is one of the exits, and we should be able to go down from here! Kun Wu looked at the data refreshed by the data terminal and nodded thoughtfully.
"Then let's go down and have a look. Do you need to recharge this passage gate? Anyang Road.
Kun Wu glanced at the other party: "I always feel that you were expressing a rather rude meaning just now!" I'm not an energizer! ”
An Yang pretended to be surprised: "Oh? So you're not? ”
Kun Wu was furious, and was about to return the color of the mouth cannon when he was interrupted by Big Brother: "Okay, you two shut up." Kungo, hurry up, we need to finish our exploration here as soon as possible, and if there is no result here, we have to go somewhere else! Don't waste any time! ”
"Hmph, I messed with you for the time being!" Kungo "glared" at Anyang, and then asked Apo to help him output a lot of energy.
In a creaking and rattling, an alloy gate opened on the ground in front of everyone, because the gate had not been opened for too long, and countless mud and stones had accumulated on it, so He You and Lao Bai also helped to break some mud and stones to facilitate the opening of the gate.
Soon, a platform elevator appeared in front of everyone, with green lights flashing on it, and the whole platform looked like a leaf.
"The Planters are really a plant race." An Yang couldn't help but sigh.
"That's not it, they're plant essences!" Kungo snorted.
The group jumped on the platform elevator, and then started the program on the data terminal, and the platform elevator began to descend slowly, at first this descent speed was very slow, but soon this speed became faster and faster, even to the speed of ordinary flying cars.
But the people standing on the platform did not feel uncomfortable falling.
"The gravity stabilization system has been made practical in a small way. This is much more advanced than the current gravity stabilization system of mankind! Kungo smacked his lips.
After months of research with Dr. Lin Liang, he is now accustomed to comparing the technology he sees with human technology.
After a minute, the metal wall around the descent platform suddenly disappeared, and everyone was shocked to see that they were now in a transparent elevator shaft, surrounded by a large underground equipment with a glimmer of light.
Pipelines, life support systems, energy circulation systems, vector engines, coordinate-like engines.
The same equipment that they knew or didn't know was marked by amber, and they were still falling.
There is no normal ecosystem in this space, and the preliminary scan of Amber shows that it is a real environment, although it is isolated from the outer cosmic environment, but it may be to prevent the equipment from aging under the action of air, so this space that looks like a huge underground cave is pumped into a vacuum.
Although the plant spirits do not die in a vacuum, they cannot survive in a vacuum for a long time.
So this space should be the engine room of the planetary ark, not the habitation area.
Platforms continue to decline, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
"Are we going to wear it to the center of the earth?" An Yang looked at the descending platform, and felt a little stunned.
"If this is a purely artificially built planetary ark, then even if it reaches the center of the earth, there is no problem, but ......" He You looked at the small but incomparably clear rock structure in the cave space.
"Yes, this planetary ark should have been modified from the original planet, so the core of the earth should be the core. Did the plant spirit want to use the geothermal energy in the center of the earth to power the entire planetary ark? If that's the case, it shouldn't last for tens of thousands of years! Kungo is also speculating.
"In other words, this planetary ark only came to this dead place not long ago, or rather, that stellar ember appeared not long ago, otherwise in the case of this planetary ark, without the sun to replenish the most basic energy, it would be almost dead in five thousand years at most!"
A scholar is a scholar, although he rarely speaks, but every time he speaks, he is supported by data. He came to this conclusion through various data from the entire planetary scan, which was unanimously approved by Awa and Amber.
"But one thing doesn't make sense. This coordinate was left over tens of thousands of years ago. It would be nice if it was a fixed base, but this is a planetary ark, and it was built to escape for its life. What do you think is the reason why this big guy has been running for tens of thousands of years to run a distance of less than three light years? ”
Kungo asks a pointed question: "Humans' primitive planetary fortresses all have a migration function, and I don't believe this thing has a moving function. So there's no reason why it can't travel to another star to recharge, so they either didn't go or came back for some reason! Which one do you think? ”
"It shouldn't be that I didn't go, because when I scanned the surface of the planet before, I did find some traces similar to space tears, and judging from the fact that this is a planetary fortress, it should be the damage during the transition process. So I think it's back for what! ”
"So, I'm afraid the secret here is even more serious than we imagined, and the possibility of a battle is also very high!" As Kungo spoke, the light in front of everyone's eyes changed again, and then everyone looked at their feet in amazement.
