Chapter 165: The ...... Peeping in the Corner
The orbits are staggered, and the wreckage collides, quietly peeking at the alien creatures.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After a long drought and nectar, Xinglan felt that this was a good way to describe how she was feeling now. As an existence that can be regarded as an energy trench since birth, she has rarely encountered such a lack of energy that she needs to accurately calculate any changes in income and expenditure, and that feeling is really very embarrassing.
The process of invading this unmanned satellite was not too difficult, after all, it still used the circuit system that Xinglan was familiar with, not the pure crystal optical path system that had appeared before. If a weak control current is released by the signal on the sensitive circuit, it is easy to take over the discharge system of a nuclear battery.
"The energy supply system is overloaded, and all the energy that can be used for several years is released in a matter of minutes." Carefully controlling the rapid release of energy while not allowing the temperature of the nuclear battery to be too high and damaged, this is a delicate technical work, Xinglan will channel a large amount of energy into the signalns here, and finally solve the problem that the signalsons are at risk of collapse due to energy overdraft, "The goal is to absorb all these energies, and the excess energy will be used for small-scale self-replication." ”
After the main energy lines were cut off one after another, the satellite, which seemed to be used for automatic detection of the environment, soon did not have enough energy to maintain its own operation, and after the probe automatically shut down, even the flickering lights on the outer surface dimmed, and directly turned into a pile of metal that was completely devoid of energy.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
Xinglan, who had regained enough energy from the signals, also became confident again, floating in space silently watching the satellite get closer and closer to the large expanse of metal wreckage...... Even small pieces of Discovery are much larger than the automatic satellite, which is only four or five meters long.
In the end, the two overlapping orbits collided together, because the orbits were only intertwined and not collided head-on, the process was not dazzling and vigorous, and the entire unmanned satellite was just sandwiched between the asteroid and the huge metal debris under the gaze of Xinglan, and was squeezed into countless broken parts......
After seeing the satellite destroyed as expected, Xinglan did not leave there, but waited quietly in place.
Even if she succeeded in hacking into the satellite's electronic system, but as expected, she didn't get much information about this civilization from the library, in fact, this is also easy to understand, unless it is a masterful, or boring civilization that almost every automatic satellite is equipped with a highly intelligent computer, no one will instill a complete set of civilization database into a satellite guarding the door in their yard, these small devices only need to have some necessary basic running programs are enough.
The satellite does not have large radio transmission equipment...... Xinglan had confirmed this after scanning its structure, and it relied entirely on a quantum communication device that occupied most of the space inside, which made it difficult for Xinglan to trace where it would send information in this almost impossible to crack remote communication.
While it shouldn't be too difficult to find a civilization in a star that has developed to this level of technology, why not use it if there is a more effortless way? The anomalous destruction of an autonomous satellite would definitely be of concern to this civilization.
All that is needed is a little waiting.
……
"Macro Continent...... This is it. ”
Leaving the sleek cabin floor once more and stepping onto somewhat damp and muddy ground, Shiokyu took a deep breath and watched the dense pristine rainforest stretch in front of him to the end of his sight.
In this rainforest, some of the most tall trees stand out, and the broad canopy resembles a large open bowl, supporting small colorful ponds and exuding a sweet smell.
The canopy tree, after many years, still stands on this continent.
This is a strange scene that Xijie has never seen before, and those strange animals shuttling in the forest made her feel curious, but before officially stepping off, she still turned her head to look at the fairy bird beside her: "This uncle, what are you going to do next?" ”
"She said she would be back soon this time." The wind flapped its wings and flew to a horizontal branch in the air, "There are some things that are time to start doing, rest assured, I will always keep some attention here, but the main thing is still to be taken care of." Even Xing Lan had only roughly browsed through these continents, and she hadn't found the most critical details at all...... It's time to take care of some of the trivialities in the ocean. ”
"A new era, a new beginning?" Xijie chuckled and walked into the lush rainforest, "Wait for my sister to come back." ”
The years of famine are coming to an end, and the times are about to change completely, and a more fundamental change is about to take place on this planet, which is the seventh era of the Taran star: the Dawning Period.
……
A few hours later, when a faint white point of light appeared in the dark starry sky, Xinglan, who had been lazily looking around and recording the star map, suddenly cheered up, and she knew that what she had been waiting for was finally coming.
This white point of light, which was moving rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, was conspicuous in the surrounding large area of starlight, which was almost all stationary, and as the distance got closer, it could be gradually seen that it was not a small object, but a large spaceship with a length of four or five hundred meters!
This is really a bit unexpected by Xinglan, the wide rectangular cabin is very huge in terms of length, width and height, it is obviously not a small patrol ship, even a scientific research ship is unlikely, its identity can be roughly guessed from the giant robotic arm dozens of meters long under the cabin...... This should be some kind of large space engineering ship.
"It doesn't look like they came to investigate by accident when they discovered that the satellite was missing." Looking thoughtfully at the approaching large spaceship, Xinglan felt that things were getting more and more interesting, "If this large engineering ship happened to be near the satellite and stopped by to take a look, the probability is too small to be ignored. Is there only one possibility? The wreckage of the Discovery or the carcass of the migratory bird were found in the distance, so there was no need to investigate the cause of the loss of contact with the satellite, but the space cargo ship was prepared to transport the large samples. ”
Xinglan had no way of knowing whether the corpse of the migratory bird and the wreckage of the Discovery had made a violent flash of light when they arrived here through the space passage, but she believed that the other party did not know about the existence of the signal...... Even judging from the current situation, the technological level of this civilization is nearly a hundred years behind the technological level of the earth when Xiao Cheng came, and they should not have the long-distance navigation ability of interstellar shuttle.
Even though the hours of waiting before were nothing to Xinglan, or even nothing at all in her opinion, Xinglan still didn't plan to wait for the huge engineering ship to slowly approach, but when there were still dozens of kilometers between the two, she couldn't wait to manipulate the signal to leave the vicinity of the satellite wreckage and wrap around the surface of the large engineering ship.
The photon capture net was re-condensed, and through the high-strength, multi-layered bulletproof glass of the portholes, Xinglan saw the intelligent creatures of this galaxy for the first time.
Originally, I was mentally prepared to see all kinds of strange creatures, such as slimes, tentacle monsters, or something, but to Xinglan's surprise, at first glance, these creatures are actually very similar to humans in terms of overall outline, about one meter six in height, with the same hands and feet and a head, and walking upright.
Even though it is very similar to the control center of a human spaceship, the most striking thing is that their control room is not only brightly lit, but very dim, and the light is so faint that only a faint halo emanates from the ceiling.
Obviously, Xinglan was a little dissatisfied with the situation in front of her, and quickly improved the accuracy of the photon capture net, changing from the level of ordinary people's vision to the low-light mode, and all the details in front of her gradually became as clear as daytime.
The skin of these creatures looks very pale, not morbidly pale, but inherently pale, at first glance it gives people a vampire-like feeling, and their faces are actually very similar to human faces, except that the eyeballs are almost twice the size of humans, and the pupils also occupy most of the eyeballs.
Signalns silently infiltrated the inside of the ship's hull, and began to scan the electronic circuits hidden in the walls and floors, while invading the ship's central main system in the form of weak pulses of electricity.
Although the number of signal subs here is not very large, relying on the time-free nature of the quantum network, Xinglan can still concentrate most of the network's computing power here to crack it, so it should not be too difficult to break through this unprecedented master control computer...... It just takes a little time.
After all, it is a large manned spaceship, and even if it is not a spaceship for political or scientific research purposes, it should have some civilization background worth referring to in its database.
While slowly breaking through the firewall in the system while hiding their tracks, Xinglan did not forget to continue to observe these creatures, they were obviously wearing indoor overalls that could quickly eject their helmets to cope with the vacuum environment for a short time, and the palms with four fingers were flexibly operating on the low-light display in front of them.
Yes, these are four fingers that are completely different from those of humans on Earth, but what surprised Xinglan the most was not this, but when she carefully scanned the inside of these creatures' bodies, she was surprised to find that it was no wonder that these creatures all looked similar, they didn't seem to have a gender...... Or are you two genders at the same time?
Quirky guys, it looks like their social structure is going to be interesting.
When the engineering ship finally began to approach the wreckage of the Discovery in the universe, it was obvious that these alien astronauts had a very surprised expression on their faces, and at this time, Xinglan also successfully found a part of the record of the home star in the spacecraft database, and with a little bit of association, Xinglan decided on the name of this planet that she had never met.
"So, this is the Night Lai Star......"
