Lao Song was full of stern faces, staring at Wang Qinian who was excited on the screen.

"Don't look at me with that damn look. I'm not crazy, I'm just looking at the problem from a different angle. ”

Wang Qinian sneered gloomily: "I don't know if you have ever considered the question of the universe?" We have never found the edge of the universe, and many people think that it is an infinite space. But I don't think so. I think the universe should be a tube, and it's very long. ”

"Pipes?"

"Isn't it? Only the environment of tubular mode can get you very far in one direction. ”

"You're talking about straight lines? But why do all the astronomical phenomena we observe have the earth as the core and radiate beyond the periphery? Shouldn't the universe be spherical or clumpy? ”

Wang Qinian was silent for a few seconds, his eyes became a little blurry, and he was quite fierce.

"That's just what we see. Don't forget, we're human beings, and evolutionary dù isn't that advanced. There are many ways to deceive the eyes. As long as we put the chopsticks **** in the glass filled with water, we will see it break in two. Space radio telescopes are actually an extension of the naked eye's line of sight, and many factors can interfere with what we see and send a spacecraft to reach its destination. Perhaps, the distance that should be straight in our eyes is actually bent or even twisted. ”

……

When he walked into the central mountain range, Su Hao felt that the whole world was shaking.

Earthquakes are becoming more frequent and stronger.

In the past week, there have been two high-intensity earthquakes and one typhoon of ordinary magnitude. Although geological and meteorological experts have repeatedly stated that this is a normal phenomenon of energy release from the Red Dragon Planet, no one can deny that the terrible natural disasters have caused irreparable damage.

Both earthquakes were located in densely populated cities, and more than 300,000 people died in the earthquakes, about 2.8 million were injured, and the missing people are being counted.

Typhoons are no less dangerous than earthquakes. Despite the timely warning issued by the General Meteorological Administration, hundreds of ships were destroyed and large areas of houses were damaged. All things considered, the total loss exceeded tens of millions of Imperial Gold Coins.

Su Hao was sure once again that the planet under his feet was indeed hostile to him, and it was becoming more and more obvious. It is using various methods to forcibly drive itself away.

A planet with a mind? It sounds really funny.

Su Hao tried to eat the dirt, taste the leaves, and eat many different animals, but he didn't get any information from it. Perhaps, from the beginning he was wrong. These miscellaneous things are just attachments to the surface of the planet, and do not represent the planet itself. If you want to get more useful information, you have to go deep into the interior of the planet.

Dozens of TBMs were built. The drawings and techniques are all sourced from the earth, and the hard-density metal of the Red Dragon planet is used as the raw material, and the TBM is far superior to similar products on the earth in terms of strength and firmness. However, these machines had just drilled two thousand meters underground and immediately encountered extremely hot magma. A total of 31 underground search teams were wiped out, and large swaths of magma shot straight into the ground along the tunnels opened by the TBM, causing damage of different distances.

This time, it was the black particles who took the initiative to ask Su Hao to leave.

Its warning of the white pyramid in the Central Mountains is still strong. In contrast, the planet beneath our feet is also terrifying to the black particles. It kept urging Su Hao to make a decision, to get out of this damn place as far as possible.

A faint mist drifts through the mountains, like diluted milk, flowing slowly between the woods and rocks. The sun sets overhead, blocked by the humid air, creating a hazy rainbow of magnificent colors. There is no smell of blood, no roar and howl of wild beasts, only a faint fragrance with crisp birdsong, which is incomparably fresh and pleasant.

Su Hao carried a military bag full of various weapons and paraphernalia and walked slowly in the direction of the white pyramid.

Every few minutes he walked, he would close his eyes and savor it carefully. He had the feeling that he was being watched. It's like being stared at by something mysterious, like a thorn in the back. The feeling of prying was faint and was rapidly fading. But the time didn't last long, and a few minutes later, the same feeling reappeared, and Su Hao's divergent thinking consciousness also captured a trace of vague traces. It was a fluctuation of energy released from a distance, faint and faint, but it had been wrapping around and lingering like a nasty fly.

"You're going in the wrong direction. Not here! Not here! Not here! I warn you, not in this direction, turn around immediately! Turn around! ”

From the moment he walked out of the gate of the Moli Zarka Fortress, the black particles had been chattering. They surged wildly in Su Hao's body, violently hitting the blood vessels and nerves, and constantly sending warning consciousness to the brain with unprecedented frenzy.

It's dangerous here, and it's just as dangerous there. Of course, this refers to the Red Dragon Planet, but what it refers to there is the destination of Su Hao's trip, the White Pyramid.

There are many ways to stay out of danger. Chen Jing's team has brought a large amount of advanced scientific and technological materials from Earth, and the Imperial Space Administration has implemented large-scale migration of previously discovered terrestrial planets. The directivity of the black particles is very clear: you just need to board a spaceship and go to another planet.

Su Hao's actions were diametrically opposed. He ordered the Empire's industrial sector to run at maximum speed, working overtime to build more migrant ships. The Red Dragon Planet may break out in full force at any time, and as the supreme ruler, the only thing Su Hao can do is to rush before this and try to transport as many people as possible.

As for himself, a decision has already been made: it is necessary to go to the White Pyramid and look for answers there.

The battle with the black particles took Su Hao a lot of energy. Its awareness of danger was so strong that in order to stop Su Hao, the black particles even severed the control nerves of his hands and feet, causing the lower part of his body to lose all functions. During that time, Su Hao was completely paralyzed and turned into a waste. He could neither move freely, nor eat, nor even excrete urine and feces from his body, but he had to endure pain from his body every second.

The tug-of-war between subjective consciousness and black particles continues. Black Particle never thought of killing Su Hao. They just use this and very cruel method to declare their own existence. Since you have chosen to inject the prototype potion, a part of your body belongs to us. Knowing the danger but still having to bite the bullet is a fool and an idiot. If you want to go crazy, we don't accompany you, as long as we parasitize in your body for a day, you can't do anything, and you don't want to do anything.

The black particles did not have the ability to seal Su Hao's speech. He ordered the doctor to inject himself with a highly toxic poison, both in intensity and in dose, which was beyond imagination. Although the emperor's order was very incredible, Tong Yanfeng, Qin Wuyi and the others could not disobey it. As a result, several metal cans with a volume of more than tons were moved into the emperor's bedroom. In front of Su Hao, the chief medical officer injected poison into a bison. In less than thirty seconds, the tough animal was lying on the ground, its eyes rolling. At this time, the chief medical officer had already put the large-caliber syringe **** Su Hao's body, and was about to unscrew the switch of the metal canister containing the highly toxic agent.

Regarding the threat of black particles, Su Hao's response was very bland: "Anyway, I've lived enough." Since you are so looking forward to my death, it is better to take it as well, and I will help you do it more thoroughly. ”

Su Hao is a mature host, leaving from his body, and it is impossible to find a new host. People who are not afraid of death are actually the most terrible, and this law also applies to the virus that parasitizes the inside of the human body. In front of Su Hao, who did not have the slightest possibility of negotiation, the black particles were completely defeated.

They are not willing to give in. Despite promising not to interfere with Su Hao's movements, the black particles continued to release danger warnings to the brain, strongly urging Su Hao to turn around and return to the imperial capital to the spaceport where the immigration spaceship was located.

The mountain road is not rugged, this road Su Hao has walked before, and compared to the past, this place has become extremely desolate.

There were burnt marks everywhere, and the bare ground was covered with black grass roots and tree stumps. From time to time, you can see carbonized animal carcasses, most of them are nimble and agile squirrels, and the kind of gray wolves that Su Hao has seen and captured a lot before. All that left them was a pitch-black skeleton, silent among the scattered green new grass.

The Praetorian Legion's cleanup of the Central Mountains was very thorough. With the exception of essential animal samples, all living things, including insects, have been exterminated like never before. A large area of forest has been cut down, and incendiary bombs are dropped directly if they are close to the white pyramid and cannot be cut down. The skyrocketing fire burned for two weeks before it was extinguished by a downpour.

Tong Yanfeng and Qin Wuyi accompanied them with hundreds of soldiers. Such a scale is similar to when Su Hao first came to the Red Dragon Planet more than a hundred years ago. So much so that Su Hao had a faint illusion that he was still on Earth and was also in the midst of a biological war.

There are no dangers and no surprises. When approaching the white pyramid, more than ten meters away from the periphery of the tower, Su Hao saw dozens of "Tewila" gathered together. This kind of animal, which is similar in appearance to dinosaurs, but only about half a meter in height, reminds Su Hao of the hens on the earth.

Oh, yes! Aren't hens scary?

Take a good look at the head of the hen, you have to get very close to see the fierceness in the hen's eyes. The eyeballs are cloudy, with the most basic biological instinct to regard all qiē as food. Who sues you that hens don't eat people? You cut off a piece of meat and throw it into the chicken coop, and they will fight for it more than ever. Reach out and touch the hen's beak, it is so hard and so sharp that if you don't pay attention to it, the hen will break free and peck your eyes directly with your beak and swallow it directly as the most delicious snack.

Hens don't have teeth, but they have hard, sharp claws. If it weren't for their short stature, if it weren't for the loss of the ability to fly, they would surely have become a feared species for humans.

Among the domesticated animals, the safest and seemingly harmless should be considered pigs. But pigs can also eat people, and although their teeth have deteriorated, they have lost their aggressive fangs, and their temperament has become more docile, but animals are not human after all, and they do not think in the logical way of humans. As long as you are hungry, you must eat, regardless of the type or form.

It's the same with Twila. In the eyes of mutants, they are actually equivalent to domesticated hens raised by humans. But their teeth and claws are so obvious that no species would willingly become food for another. They will fight, they will erupt, but only if the wisdom and consciousness evolve to be smart enough.

Perhaps, in a few hundred years, Tvera will become the new ruler of the Red Dragon planet. However, that kind of thing is too far away, and Su Hao has no interest in paying attention.

The pyramid has no gate, and the white passage at the bottom is unobstructed. Tong Yanfeng gave an order, and the soldiers occupied the surrounding favorable terrain to build defenses. At a slight distance, dozens of heavy chariots had crossed the ridge line of the mountains and appeared on the bare summits, aiming their thick black muzzles at the towers.

The surveillance fleet has been hovering in the air. At an altitude of 8,000 meters, with six large flying warships as the core, as many as 100 aerial gunboats are being assembled. These weapons based on earth technology are extremely powerful, especially after the breakthrough of spar technology, the research and development speed of beam and energy weapons has also been greatly improved, and the ship's high-energy particle cannon is enough to break through the white pyramid, if the entire warship group fires a salvo, I am afraid that even the mountain range itself will be wiped out.

The pyramid was unusually quiet, and the spacious ground and the surrounding pillars made Su Hao quite emotional. This scene was familiar to him, and the internal structure of the pyramid was obviously exactly the same as the one on the bottom of the Earth's Atlantic Ocean. Seeing this, Su Hao even had the illusion that he had gone home.

The large group of soldiers who poured in from the entrance each occupied the attack position, and Su Hao did not stop, still walking forward along the central avenue. There was no guiding mysterious sound, and although it was far away, Su Hao could still see the light cluster in the distance.

It was the light from the portal. Just like when you were on Earth, the position and distance have not changed.

"Please, don't go any further. It's really dangerous there, very dangerous. ”

The black particles are like clowns in the circus, always racking their brains to delay Su Hao's footsteps in various ways.

"You're going to die, and I'm going to die."

"There are many beings in this world who are stronger than you, and you are no match for them at all."

"Stand still! This is not a threat, and there will be unforeseen dangers further forward. You have to trust me! You have to trust me! ”

There's another voice in my body chattering, and it feels really bad. Although Su Hao is accustomed to these messy information of black particles, he still inevitably has a sense of irritability. What's more, the black particles have issued more warnings at this moment than ever before, and no matter how good-tempered a person is, he can't help but explode.

"Enough! You shut up! ”

To communicate with black particles, you don't need to speak, you just need to think through the guò way of thinking. However, Su Hao's anger had been accumulating during his journey to the Central Mountain Range, and the simple form of consciousness could no longer adapt to the needs, and when the roar of rage blurted out, he realized that he didn't need to do it at all. After all, volume deterrence does not work against black particles, they are just viruses and have no hearing.

Tong Yanfeng and the soldiers around him were startled, and subconsciously remained quiet. Su Hao himself felt quite embarrassed, and at the moment when his gaze shifted, his eyes suddenly widened, and the gaze released from the depths of his eyes was full of extreme horror and incredulity.

"How, how is that possible...... You, why are you here? ”

Two figures slowly walked from the direction of the portal, although there was still a considerable distance, Su Hao had already seen each other's appearances clearly...... He felt tense and something unspeakable rolled through his mind. Despite swallowing his saliva, Su Hao still felt his throat dry and his voice became extremely hoarse.

"It must be a mistake."

"No, you shouldn't be here, there must be something wrong."

"This, this can't be! Fake, it must be fake, I ...... You ......"

Tong Yanfeng was standing more than two meters behind Su Hao, his face full of horror and horror. They are all beta-type evolutionary people, what Su Hao can see, and Tong Yanfeng can see it. A cold trickle of fear slowly seeped down his spine, and the cold horror poured through his stomach. Tong Yanfeng subconsciously pulled out his pistol and wanted to aim at the two people who came over, but he couldn't raise his arm, let alone pull the trigger.

Among the guards who poured into the pyramid were two high-ranking brigadier captains. They are all old "worker bees" who came from the earth with Su Hao back then. The moment their eyes made contact with the visitor, the two "worker bees" leveled their respective weapons in unison. They were equally frightened, equally incomprehensible to what they saw. Because, the most unlikely thing is in front of you, if there is really a nightmare in this world, then this scene in front of you is.

The atmosphere inside the pyramid was extremely heavy, and although the soldiers were the "worker bees" that later developed on the Red Dragon Planet, they still felt the danger signals from the emperor and the generals. They spread out, approaching their targets from different positions, enclosing two approaching people in a circle that was aimed at as many as hundreds of guns.

Su Hao's expression stiffened, and his skin seemed to be stuck with glue and could not be loosened.

"Why are you here......"

He kept muttering to himself, his voice getting lower and lower, and only Su Hao himself could hear it. A simple sentence was repeated a dozen times in a row, but no one could tell him the answer.

Su Hao finally understood: What does the "danger" that black particles repeatedly warn of themselves refer to?

Perhaps, what you see is only part of the danger. But there is no doubt that I was wrong from the beginning, really wrong. Before, if there are really nightmares in this world, then this scene in front of us is.
