Chapter 990: Goods
This is a cargo ship. Xiao Yu had already determined this before. This is confirmed by the login robot that entered the ship. Most of the dozen or so robots entered huge warehouses, which were full of all kinds of materials, all kinds of rare metals, all kinds of rare compounds that can only be formed under extreme conditions, and even large pieces of water ice stored here.
These diverse materials occupy a volume of tens of cubic kilometers. And what Xiao Yu's team of robots entered was an inconspicuous place among the countless warehouses.
Here, there are one iron cage after another. Tens of thousands of cages are neatly arranged here, and there is a strange atmosphere in this deep warehouse without any light. These cages are not empty, and it is the contents of these cages that make Xiao Yu so shocked and even out of shape.
The contents of these cages are very familiar to Xiao Yu, very familiar. Although Xiao Yu was not a physiologist of earth humans, Xiao Yu still recognized these things at a glance.
It was a skeleton. The semicircular and neatly arranged ribs prove that most of the important organs of this creature are concentrated in the chest, the almost completely closed hard skull, and several notches above the skull, which proves that the hearing, vision, and taste organs of this creature are concentrated there, and Xiao Yu also has reason to believe that the inside of this almost completely closed skull is the most important organ of this creature.
There was no doubt that these were human bones - although these bones were different from the bones of Earth humans that Xiao Yu was familiar with, Xiao Yu still confirmed this. There are tens of thousands of cages here. inside every cage. There was a human skeleton. The bones vary in posture, some are half-leaning on the cage, others are lying on the ground. Some were lying on their sides, but no matter what posture they were, Xiao Yu sensed a common signal from these bones.
They are painful. They are people who lose their lives in agony. After losing their lives, as time passed, their bodies were gone, and only their bones remained. Accompanied by this huge sixth-level civilization cargo ship, stay in this corner of the universe together. Follow this inconspicuous dwarf planet around the red giant.
If Xiao Yu hadn't happened to find this place, these things might have stayed here until the end of time.
Xiao Yu sensed a chill in his heart. From the moment these suspected human bones were discovered. The formation of 10,000 spaceships transferred by Xiao Yu has entered the highest state of combat readiness. At the same time, a larger number of robots descended from the spaceship formation and came to the dwarf planet, pouring into the ship like a tide. Xiao Yu must explore this spaceship completely. Find out what's going on here.
Xiao Yu broke open an iron cage in the warehouse. Manipulate several robots to carefully collect a skeleton. Outside, Xiao Yu has prepared a complete set of testing instruments. These testing instruments will conduct the most comprehensive examination of these bones with the technology of a seventh-level civilization to determine whether they are left by humans or not.
The test results came back half an hour later. The data shows that these bones have more than 90 percent in common with humans. As for the ten percent difference, Xiao Yu also found some unusual signs. That is, these differences also evolve from commonalities.
"It's evolution." This word immediately appeared in Xiao Yu's mind. That's right, it can only be evolution.
"These humans. Perhaps because the environment in which they live is different from that of the earth, their physiological structure has also undergone certain changes. Just from these changes. Traces of the past can still be found. And since it's evolution, it takes a long time. After all, evolution is a very slow process. What does this mean? ”
Xiao Yu was silently thinking about this question. The answer is very obvious, in a place that Xiao Yu doesn't know, I don't know why, there is a group of earth humans living there, and they have survived for a long time. Because the environment is different from the earth, in order to adapt to the environment there, they once again turned on the evolutionary mechanism and changed their body structure. Then, for some reason, they stepped on this sixth-level civilization cargo spaceship and followed this spaceship to start an interstellar journey. Then it encountered a supernova explosion and eventually crashed on top of this inconspicuous dwarf planet.
There is absolutely no way that this spaceship is owned by humans themselves. Xiao Yu has confirmed this. With Xiao Yu's technology, Xiao Yu can quickly determine the overall structure of this spaceship, and distinguish the power part, control part, and life part of this spaceship. Large-scale robotic probing has found some evidence to support this conclusion. Xiao Yu found the remains of another intelligent creature, the remains of this alien creature that appeared on a large scale in the control area and living area of this spaceship. In contrast, the remains of humans only appeared in this warehouse, and Xiao Yu found no trace of humans in any of the rest of the ship.
"It seems...... These humans are just being held here, they're just cargo. Xiao Yu came to this conclusion through a simple logical reasoning. However, there are still many unexplained aspects of this conclusion.
One of the most important questions is, where did these humans come from? Earth? But didn't the earth explode? Aren't all human beings dead? The appearance of one Zhang Shengya is enough to surprise Xiao Yu, but there are tens of thousands of them here at one time?
Well, even if all these tens of millions of people were survivors, and they escaped the catastrophe of the explosion of the earth for some unknown reason, but ...... How many million light-years away from Earth is it? How did they come here across this long distance, and after coming here, why did they become the "goods" of this sixth-level civilization?
There is a lot of fog in this matter. In addition to the matter itself, Xiao Yu also thought of another thing.
That is, is there some unknown element at work behind this? After all, this is a coincidence from any point of view. It's like discovering a spaceship in the nineties hundreds of thousands of years ago on the finger of that white dwarf alien beast.
That incident was finally confirmed to be planned by Chen Mo in secret. What about this matter?
Xiao Yu didn't have any clue. There are too few sources of information now, after all. Xiao Yu can only focus on this matter itself, as for what is hidden behind this matter, maybe as the incident progresses, those things will gradually appear in front of Xiao Yu.
"If there really is a mastermind behind it, then ...... They have managed to drag me into this incident. And the power to plan for me at this moment...... Is it an eighth-level civilization? Or is it the rebel or the defender, or the opposition in the camp of the spokesman? What is your purpose? ”
First of all, it can be confirmed that since the bones of these "humans" have been discovered, then Xiao Yu has no reason to ignore this matter, if there is really the power behind it, then the style of this "power behind the back" is very clever, they immediately identified Xiao Yu's weakness, and they dragged Xiao Yu into this matter in a way that Xiao Yu couldn't refuse.
This may be another conspiracy, but Xiao Yu has no way to refuse this matter. Those...... After all, it's your own kind, the same kind that you have lived with yourself on the earth. Xiao Yu really had no way to ignore them. Maybe there is no conspiracy at all in this incident, it is just a coincidence, Xiao Yu also wants to investigate this matter clearly, find out why these "humans" escaped the disaster of the earth's explosion and survived, where they are living now, what is the survival situation, and why they came to this sixth-level civilization spaceship and became the "cargo" of this civilization.
Xiao Yu found more signs in this spaceship. Due to the intensity of the high-energy gamma ray burst, most of the ship's electronics, including the main control computer, have been destroyed. This meant that Xiao Yu couldn't find more information from their database. Of the rest of the surviving electronic devices, only inconsequential and trivial things were stored. Xiao Yu didn't look for any more information about the humans who were being held here.
Xiao Yu found something else. Xiao Yu had already ascertained that the spaceship had departed from a civilization trading site tens of thousands of light-years away and returned to the main body of civilization. And the main body of this civilization is in an open star cluster less than 100,000 light-years away. According to records, the ship appears to have arrived at the trading location with some supplies and made a trade, selling its own in exchange for something else.
"Then, let's go to this main body of civilization and investigate first." Xiao Yu thought silently, "I'm not interested in the structure, form, and level of your civilization, whether it's benevolent or malicious. But if I find out that you have acted with malice towards humanity...... Then I will destroy you without mercy. (To be continued......)
