Chapter 227
"We have reached the vicinity of the coordinate location. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info now start diving. With the reminder of the central computer, the outside of the dome suddenly darkened, and after a while, the surrounding area was already a sea of underwater scenery. Sunlight shines through the gaps in the sea duckweed, forming bright pillars of light. Large swaths of suspended seaweed floated around in the pillars of light, like rootless forests.
"Although they have no roots, they generally have a heavy mass of tissue in the lower part." Fleisko said to The Little Mermaid, "This is a common feature of many aquatic plants, which regulate their height in the water. ”
"We have found that at least 100 species of plants have the ability to move slowly by moving some of their branches in order to choose a suitable environment for survival." Central Computer added.
"What's that?" The Little Mermaid asked suddenly pointing in one direction. Fleisisco looked over and immediately saw a strange scene. In the middle of a giant seaweed, it appears as a swollen clump, as if an egg with a diameter of about ten meters has been born. In the gentle waves, this huge object floats slowly, the sun shining on it, and the waves flow and shine, like a piece of art carved from jadeite, exuding a dreamlike sense of unreality. For a moment, Flessisco Michael Cassan couldn't help but look a little stupid.
"That's the flower room." The tone of the central computer remained inherently calm, "It was built by children out of giant seaweed, and they like to stay inside." ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw two small figures rushing out of the flower room like swimming fish, and they looked at the mothership with some panic, their faces mixed with shyness and unease. Fleisisco could see at a glance that they were only fifteen or sixteen years old, and it seemed that the arrival of the mothership had disturbed the tryst of the young lovers.
"It's Xingchan and Chunsheng."
The two older children seemed to be calmer, and their lips twitched to this side.
"What are they talking about?" The Little Mermaid asked.
"What we can't hear, underwater they emit a kind of infrasound language." Flessisco explained.
"They said that a group of squid-like thousand-eyed sea snakes attacked the Giant Island ranch just now, and the adults rushed over." The central computer said.
Fleicisco hesitated for a moment and said, "Do all these people have names?" Isn't it good to use numbers? ”
"Forty years ago, the first generation of pioneers gave themselves names." The central computer replied: "At that time, the names were generally chosen according to their own characteristics, but in fact, it was more like determining the original nickname as a name. For example, the red-haired giant's original nickname was Big Mac. However, now the names of the children of the Giant Island are much more formal. ”
"Kid." Fleisisco muttered. Before acceptance, this was something that should not have existed, but the forty-year break in connection changed many things – and the space-time difference between Y Cygnus – the Red Starfish and the Solar System – Earth was hundreds of light-years apart. When a wormhole spacecraft travels interstellar at the speed of light, there is a 'drift' of time backwards, or a 'reverse current' of time...... But this is only a small accident, from another point of view, these children seem to be part of the pioneers.
Outside the window, some elaborate and unique structures suspended in the water began to skim. Most of these buildings are circular, polygonal, or hexagonal in shape, some are individually, and many are spliced together to form larger buildings. This building stretches out and occupies a large part of the space, like an undersea castle. As you can imagine, it should be a bustling scene here on weekdays, but now that most of the people have rushed to the ranch, only a dozen or so people are looking at the mothership with some curiosity.
"Is this the city of the Red Starfish?" The Little Mermaid asked with great interest.
"It can only be called a settlement now, and there are several such settlements in the Red Starfish." "Our population is still small," the central computer said. ”
"And how many Precursors are there now?" Fleisisco asked, as if casually. "Plus those kids."
"The original 5,000 pioneers, now with the children are 9,874, less than 10,000 miles -- and that doesn't include the ...... of people who have lost their lives in accidents over the decades." )
