Chapter 76: Blood Rush
"Chief of Staff, help me analyze whether this thing is an animal or a plant." Summer said.
"Yes, sir." "According to preliminary analysis, it should not be an animal. ”
"That's a plant?" Summer frowned and asked, "Since it's a plant, how does it photosynthesize?" ”
"Summer," said Mira, "is clearly not an Earth creature, so it doesn't have to follow the laws of Earth biology." ”
"Oh yes, I forgot about it."
Diao Chan said, "Mira-sama is right, it is not an earth creature at all. If it is to be classified, it should be classified under the category of fungi according to geobiology. ”
"Fungi? Such a large fungus? "No wonder it looks like an ice cream, it's a big mushroom!" ”
Now the question is whether this "big mushroom" will be poisonous? What is its food? It doesn't eat people, does it? Summer is desperate to get this battleship, so there are two problems to solve at the moment, one of which is the problem of the big mushroom, and the second is the survivors in cabin 5.
"Summer, or give it up," said Mira, who was too worried about Summer's safety, and it was good to get the ship, but there was nothing to lose if it wasn't available.
"No, no, Mira," said Summer in all seriousness, "you don't know, I want it so much. ”
"But that's also about safety, and now we don't know anything about this ship, the unidentified creatures and survivors inside. What if there are three long and two short? Mira was going to say, "What do you want me to do?" "I just held back.
Summer thought for a moment and said, "Then what do you think is good?" Isn't there still six hours left for docking? We continue to observe, whether we want this battleship, we still have six hours to consider. ”
"Okay, then we have to be careful, we can't let go of even the slightest clue."
Fengyun 2 changed the course under the attachment of the Star Destroyer + UAV formation, which is a large arc flight trajectory, like a huge parabola, tangential to the route of Dawn II. Three hours into the countdown to the docking, Dawning 2 was already able to directly observe the docking point in a parabolic trajectory at 10 o'clock.
There is no more valuable information about the "blood rush", but the "think tank" of the three people inferred about it, unified their opinions, and made the following judgment:
Blood Cream is a new species that is completely different from the Earth's biological systems. The so-called new species does not mean that there were no before, but that they have not been discovered. Firstly, it is a living thing, and secondly, it is neither an animal nor a plant, similar to a fungus. (Note)
Thirdly, it is not a carbon-based organism. This point is the most important, although it is only inference. Fourth, its food is a bit unbelievable, because it is initially inferred that its food is likely to be very harmful to radiation.
During the process of detecting the inside of the battleship, the radioactive contamination inside the warship quickly subsided. It is possible that blood shock is "eating" the radiation. During the ten seconds of the blood shock's fasting, when the life probe could not detect it, it was it digesting the radiation it was ingesting.
By the hour countdown to the docking, the radioactive contamination inside the battleship had been eliminated by this blood shock. Since this creature likes to eat radiation, it means that if it can be used together, it can be used to remove nuclear-contaminated areas. For example, the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear leak on Earth and the 2011 Fukushima nuclear leak, if there had been such a blood rush, then these two places would not have become dead cities for decades.
It would be nice if I could use it. Summer thought to himself, although he didn't know what he could do with it at the moment, but now he was like the collector, who wanted to own anything strange he saw.
Another important finding in the observation of blood shock is that there are many irregular balls of flesh-red flesh the size of tennis balls growing on the bodies of all blood shocks. Could it be that this ball-like thing could be the fruit of Blood Shock?
Seeing that the docking is approaching, Summer has sent a large number of armed robots and nanobots to land inside the battleship through the poisonous scorpion star destroyer, and more data is fed back from time to time.
Fengyun 2 is already in the field of vision, directly in front of 12 o'clock, only 1 light second 300,000 kilometers away, at this moment there is no delay in communication. Both Fengyun II and Dawning II are adjusting their own speed to accommodate the accurate docking after an hour.
"What's next?" Mira and Wu Ruize both asked.
Sitting in the commander's seat, Summer played with the light pen in his hand and thought. "Summer, what do you think?" Wu Ruize asked anxiously.
"Talk to the survivors." Summer finally made the decision to be twenty days late.
"Yes, my lord," Diao Chan said, "Diao Chan is trying to connect with the survivors. ”
After about five minutes of waiting, the survivors' communications were picked up. He was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a long beard on his chin that is typical of ancient men, in addition to the long beard and a face full of stubble. A haggard face.
Summer looked at him and waited for him to speak. The man was stunned for a moment and said, "Help me, give me something to eat, I haven't eaten for many days." ”
"Why are you alone?" Summer asked.
"All dead, all dead!" The man said with tears in his eyes.
Summer followed up and asked, "How did you die?" ”
"Ghost Ray."
Summer looked back at Diao Chan, and Diao Chan said, "It's nuclear radiation." ”
"Can you be specific? How were they all killed by the Ghost Ray? ”
"My lord, can you give me something to eat? I'm really hungry and hungry. The man pleaded.
"I can give you food, but I must be responsible for my ship and my crew." "You and I are no longer on the same ship, and my crew will have to travel through space and log in to your ship to bring you food." Do you understand? However, your ship has been heavily contaminated with nuclear radiation. So, I have to have a detailed understanding of Fengyun II, what exactly happened to it? Only when I understand the cause and effect can I carry out the rescue of you, do you understand? ”
"Yes, yes, my lord, I will tell you everything I know."
"Okay, tell me your name before we begin."
