Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Ruins of the City
Seeing all kinds of beautiful scenery, a wonderful feeling germinates from people's hearts, they are too eager for the blue sky, they are too eager for the sea, too much for the sun in the sky. X
Many people were debating happily about where to climb, where to swim, and so on.
These adventurous people can't wait!
Adventure and curiosity have never been lacking, and this spirit has continued to generations to come. In the later period of the Nix Star, with the progress of society, the control gradually became relaxed, and there were often a group of travelers who went to the dark cave to explore, which was called ...... "geological investigation"
For this reason, there was also an accident......
In the aftermath of that accident, the government enacted a number of laws and regulations to regulate risk-taking behavior......
And the scenery of the planet "Dig-114" is obviously much better than that of the black Knicks......
The huge sea of green, the monstrous waves, the biodiversity and the degree of beauty, completely burst the Knicks star without sunlight.
Many people's minds have come alive and they are frantically discussing the issue of underwater exploration.
Is it to design a large submarine?
…… A submarine capable of diving 10,000 meters into the depths of the ocean!
"We don't have a lot of research on submarines...... But theoretically it shouldn't be difficult, we can design it ourselves...... If you want to use nuclear power, you may need to apply to the military. ”
"Conventional power will do, maybe you need some superalloys."
Well, the tech nerd in the Noah is so awesome, and building a submarine by yourself doesn't seem to be a big deal......
It's not just adventurous guys who are discussing, some foodies are also discussing.
For example, this fat-looking three-eyed fish seems to be delicious; And this bird, this plant, it looks delicious...... Is the ten-year-old one more chewy and nutritious than the one-year-old? According to various Chinese customs, the nutrition of ten-year-old should be better......
Of course, no matter how you talk about it, security is still very important.
It's an alien here, and the complex microbial environment alone is enough for humans to eat a pot.
Are strange creatures threatening, toxic, or nuclear-contaminated? Humans don't know about it, and it needs to be investigated for a long time.
Maybe one of the rabbit-like creatures, cute and cute, is actually a top-level predator that can gnaw at a human being in a matter of minutes?
It's all possible!
And also...... The biggest bit......
Where did the original inhabitants go?
All people see on satellites is ruins, which is absolutely abnormal!
The existence of an intelligent life is still too threatening, and human beings must find out about it!
Therefore, although the staff at the front were also attracted by the beautiful scenery, they still did not relax their vigilance, and they remotely controlled the drone's forward route.
Yu Yifeng also calmed down and calmed down the excitement at the beginning.
And just like that, a swarm of drones flew from the ocean in the direction of land. Intelligent life should have a greater probability of appearing on land, and most of the urban ruins found by satellites also appear on land.
At this time, Yu Yifeng suddenly received a satellite call, which was from a biological expert on the Titan spacecraft.
"Captain, the results of the ocean analysis are out!"
"How, what did you find?"
The delay of the call is very large, in a word, it will be delayed for two or three seconds, which is also an inherent defect of electromagnetic wave communication.
But people have not found a means of communication beyond the speed of light...... Whether it's lasers, or electromagnetic waves of various frequencies, it's just the speed of light.
Unless you use the curvature engine as a courier, wrapping information for faster-than-light movement...... This is the only way to exceed the speed of light today......
The expert replied: "According to ...... Instrumental analysis in unmanned submarines, we quantified seawater in 120 areas. We found that seawater contains a small amount of heavy metal ions, as well as some macromolecular organic components, which is suspected to be an industrial pollutant of intelligent life......"
"It's kind of like the pesticides used during the Earth era...... Of course, we no longer use this pesticide. ”
Yu Yifeng shrugged his nose, organic ingredients, pesticides?
Looking at it this way, intelligent life is really a cancer for the planet......
"And ...... A strange species of planktonic microorganism is widely distributed in the seawater, suspected to be algae...... They are highly reproductive, have a high density of distribution, and contain chloroplasts. That's why the sea has this pale green color. ”
“…… Could it be that the entire ocean is polluted? Hearing the term algae, Yu Yifeng subconsciously thought of eutrophication pollution of water bodies......
Destruction is always easier than creation. If the entire ocean is polluted by the original low-level civilization, it will be very troublesome for the current human race.
He even wondered if humanity had enough technology to clean up the entire polluted ocean......
It takes too long and too long to govern the planet on a large scale, so it is better to find another clean ......
The expert seemed to sense Yu Yifeng's doubts, and immediately said: "No, no, no, this algae is just a natural phenomenon, which is different from our water pollution. They are an indispensable part of the ecosystem and an important producer. ”
"But we found that the structure of these algae is extremely complex, and it is completely different from that on our planet! From the light microscope, some animal characteristics have even been found, and their flagella outside the body have a certain irritability, and they can even swim in seawater! ”
"We don't understand why they move like paramecium, because they can photosynthesize and don't need to feed at all......"
The expert excitedly said that a plant with animal properties was a great discovery......
Its cellular structure has greatly exceeded people's understanding.
This kind of cell is much more complex than the cells of earth creatures, and even if this plant can run and jump, no one will find it unusual!
"This discovery alone is worth the trip to this planet."
Yu Yifeng nodded, his frowning brows slowly stretched.
The structure of life on each planet is certainly very different...... These different specimens of life are of great benefit to the study of human genetic science.
He inexplicably thought of the Green Light Man, well, the two had never met, and he didn't know what the other person looked like. Maybe it's a plant, too?
However, please don't be in a hurry to take biological specimens, if humans do settle here, there will be a long time to do it......
"By the way, has there been any nuclear radiation found in the ocean?" Yu Yifeng thought of something, and suddenly asked again.
The expert nodded on the screen and said solemnly: "There are 12 areas where nuclear radiation has been found...... But captain, there is too much water in the ocean, and no amount of radiation will be diluted, and the harm is still limited. And only the atomic bomb will produce a high level of radiation contamination ......"
After understanding everything, Yu Yifeng nodded and hung up the phone.
"Is it really a wasteland planet? Even the vast ocean has been detected with radiation...... Alas. ”
As the exploration continued, news continued to come one after another......
An hour later, the high-speed flying drone finally observed the traces of intelligent civilization up close!
On the edge of the ocean, there is a bronze statue full of rust spots!
At first glance, I thought it was the Statue of Liberty in the United States......
According to the photo, the statue is more than 110 meters high, but at the moment, most of it has been submerged by the sea.
Because of the immersion in the seawater, it has long since decayed, and the surface is covered with pitted patina.
Many marine creatures are happily playing here, and this is a shallow sea with a depth of several tens of meters. The remnants of intelligent life are the buildings that become their best homes.
And a few kilometers away from the statue, there is a city flooded by the sea!
A ...... A long-abandoned uninhabited city! r
