Chapter 258: The Sixth World

The sixth world of the Star Empire.

Everyone was thrilled with its arrival.

However, when the probe transmitted images of the new world back, many of the researchers remained silent.

After a long time, someone commented in a somewhat surprised tone: "This world looks a little unusual......

No one argues because from the current point of view, it seems that this is the case.

The thick and gloomy black sky, dense lightning rolled in it like countless pythons. And the corresponding earth is also a black and gray color.

Only the array of metal almost flush with the mountain peaks and the flickering red light showed an extraordinary sight.

"Adjust the position of the detector, aim at the ground area, and zoom in on the camera!"

The person in charge, who had recovered from the shock, hurriedly commanded the researcher on the side.

As the stealthy probe transmitted a clearer image of the ground, everyone finally saw the true appearance of the ground scene in the new world.

"This, what is this, what the hell is going on in this world?"

On the three-dimensional projection screen, under the magnified lens is an oval-shaped metal capsule, which appears to be made of transparent alloy and red gelatin.

On both sides, the same other tubular capsules, filled with red gelatin.

These capsules are fan-shaped and circular in shape, spreading outward. They are all connected to the core of the center, and each capsule resembles a dull glowing red petal attached to a black metal stem, neatly arranged in the abyss of hell in a blue bolt of lightning.

This strange image churned in everyone's minds.

The glittering tower of petals spirals up to incomprehensible heights and disappears into the darkness, like an underwater abyss.

At this moment, suddenly a petal falls off the stem, taking away a capsule, like an automatic barge, and a new capsule rises immediately after it and inserts into this empty space.

"Aim at those things and keep pulling in the camera."

And when the camera is pointed at the new capsule and pulled in again, inside the new capsule with a translucent and pink surface, researchers who are interested and puzzled by these things that they don't know what they are used for suddenly see the body of a small human baby.

His body floated in a uterus, red amniotic membranes filled with a viscous gel.

Confusingly, the baby's body is covered with metal tubes, as if they grew from the inside of the body, and the dense lines cover the whole body.

"What kind of device is this?"

Everything on the projection screen was strange and incomprehensible.

As the detector moved, they saw not only the weak baby inside, but also the young, middle-aged, and even the elderly.

But without exception, they all lay naked in pale bodies, lying in amniotic fluid inside metal capsules, metal tubes attached to their spines and limbs like ropes.

"It could just be some kind of life-sustaining device...... one researcher speculated.

"It's just that the metal building below looks like power transmission equipment."

"Take people to generate electricity? No way! ”

Although they were shocked by what they saw, as researchers of the Empire, they still speculated and recorded truthfully based on the information they had so far.

"There are still human beings in the world this time, and the development model of social civilization and the level of science and technology need to be further judged."

"The main components of the atmosphere are still nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, water, etc., which are basically the same as those of blue star."

"The surface of the earth shows signs of being mined on a large scale, and there are a lot of intelligent machines."

"The way of life and conditions of human beings are unknown and need to be further observed."

……

The researchers kept a detailed record of the environmental state of the new world based on the indicators fed back by the probe instruments.

And the person in charge on the side had a solemn face. After seeing the humans in the metal capsules, he had a premonition of uneasiness about the world.

"Operate the equipment and prepare it for liftoff."

The range that can be detected in the low-altitude environment is limited, and only by allowing the machine to rise to the high altitude can the overall environment of the new world be observed to the greatest extent.

The New World stealth probe received the command and began to climb rapidly into the air, passing through the endless metal jungle and the humans on it.

Three thousand meters!

5,000 meters!

Seven thousand meters!

The supersonic probe was like an arrow off the string, getting closer and closer to the dim sky, and when it was about to penetrate the thick clouds, the person in charge suddenly called an emergency stop.

"Stop, stop!"

The probe came to a halt beneath the dark clouds.

Through the projection screen, it is now clear what the dim night is.

Compared to normal dark clouds, the clouds that obscured the sky at the moment seemed to be darker and thicker, like a curtain stained with ink, covering the sky of the new world without leaking.

But this was not the reason for the person in charge to stop the detection instrument, the main factor that brought it to a halt was the blue arc that flashed in the black night.

Only from such a close distance can you see it in its entirety.

Between the rolling black clouds, dense blue lightning flashed like a swimming dragon, accompanied by a thunderclap, flipped and flipped.

This scene, like the celestial changes caused by the arrival of the end times, makes people tremble.

"There is an ionic layer inside the clouds, and our instruments have not been adaptively modified, and if they are forcibly lifted into the air, it will seriously affect the operation of the equipment." The person in charge explained.

"Keep the probe at this altitude and accelerate its flight."

Ten minutes later, everyone who witnessed the probe flying hundreds of kilometers at three times the speed of sound was stunned at this moment.

Because of the flight of such a long distance, the atmospheric background on the projection screen hardly changed at all, all thick and dim clouds mixed with blue lightning.

"Is it true that the skies of the New World are like this?"

Although the probe is still flying, the scene is still the same, there is no change in the slightest, and everyone has probably already made a judgment by here.

"Could it be that there was a nuclear explosion in this world, causing a huge amount of dust to obscure the sky?"

"It's not like a nuclear explosion, the atmosphere of the New World has a complex plasma layer, and it's more like it's artificially altered."

Two meteorological physicists are using their experience to analyze the factors that contribute to the atmospheric environment of the New World.

As the minutes ticked by, the first exploration of the new world lasted a full three hours.

With the help of advanced equipment, the researchers recorded a large number of video materials, and on this basis, they made a brief report and handed it to Shen Sen, waiting for the next instructions.

"Human capsule, mechanical city, black canopy, a dead world......"

Compared with the researchers' ignorance of the new world, when Shen Sen in the office read this intelligence information, he had some guesses about the new world.

"The Matrix, is that you?"
