Chapter 17: The Space Cableway
"Rong'er, don't look around, you're about to leave the star system, be careful, the star map marks that there is life in the next star system."
Huang Yaoshi said to Huang Rong who was looking around.
Since the beginning of the Age of Stars, almost all cultivators have stepped into the sea of stars.
He Huang Yao Master was no exception, as a veteran Jindan Realm cultivator and formation master, he didn't take a large number of low-level cultivators to explore the starry sky like other Jindan Realm cultivators.
On the ark of his spiritual power, in addition to himself and his daughter, there are only a few dumb slaves who have been serving his family.
Each of these dumb slaves has the top cultivation in the foundation building period, they are all from hundreds of years ago, and they have served Huang Yaoshi's family for hundreds of years.
It can be said that it is the henchman of the henchmen.
said that he was a dumb slave, but in fact, his throat had already been cured, and he was no different from a normal monk on weekdays, but because he was Huang Yaoshi's confidant, his status was higher than that of some ordinary people.
There were slaves in this era, and although the Xiuzhen Alliance developed extremely rapidly, the past few reforms were not thorough, so there were still a lot of feudal remnants.
Of course, the number of such dumb slaves is not very large, and the total number of hands is not more than two.
Huang Yaoshi brought six or seven of them to explore the starry sky this time, and the rest either stayed on the ancestral star to guard Peach Blossom Island, or stayed on the Shennong Star Medicine Master Continent to take care of the industry for him.
"Dad, we have explored more than a dozen living star systems, but we have not found a single civilization that can leave the home planet, and most of them have not even been born with intelligent life, so what are you worried about?" Huang Rong didn't care, but thought that her father was too cautious.
Suddenly, the control screen of the Spirit Power Ark flickered, and the dumb slave in charge of driving it said to Huang Yaoshi, "Island Master, the Ark is ready to leave the hyperspace channel. ”
The hyperspace channel space was created by Guo Jing when he was drawing a star map, and it is a passage formed by Guo Jing randomly folding the space between two star systems, in order to shorten the distance required for interstellar travel.
The inspiration was for a glass-burning game from a past life, in which galaxies were connected to each other in hyperspace space.
Capable of accessing via the hyperspace engine.
Although Guo Jing didn't know the principle of the hyperspace waterway space in the game, he built his own version of the hyperspace waterway space through his understanding of space knowledge.
As long as authorized to travel to and from this galaxy through the hyperspace space.
Otherwise, if they were a group of Jindan Realm monks, they would not know that it would take tens of thousands of years to explore the entire galaxy.
Let's not talk about whether the life span can last, whether there will be accidents during the trip, just this long travel time can make people crazy.
"Dad, what's that?"
Not long after, Huang Rong looked into space through the glass of the Spirit Power Ark and exclaimed.
Directly in front of the hull, a planet emitting a pale blue light appeared, it was three or four times the size of the ancestral star, and from the surface it was full of pale blue ocean, with only a few island-like landpieces dotted on the sea.
But what surprised Huang Rong was not this planet, but the hundreds of artificial celestial bodies orbiting the planet on the surface of the planet.
Thick cables of unknown material pierced through the giant planet, extending from the planet and merging with the artificial celestial bodies surrounding the planet, forming a huge communication network linking the starry sky and the planets.
"Rong'er, this seems to be a passage for transporting things, yes, it should be a road through some kind of special manned vehicle, the Xiuzhen Alliance once had a similar plan to this one, called a space elevator." Huang Yaoshi muttered.
"Space elevator?" Huang Rong was surprised, "But it's a bit similar, but it's more appropriate to call it a space cableway." ”
"It's true that the name Space Cable is more in line with it, but be careful, this is the first time we've seen a civilization that can go into space." Huang Yaoshi said with a serious face.
Huang Rong also hummed calmly, she knew that she couldn't be casual at this time.
"Turn on optical stealth mode." Huang Yaoshi came to the command cabin and shouted to the dumb slave who was debugging the equipment.
The mute slave hurriedly replied, "Yes, island master." ”
After saying that, the dumb slave sped up the speed of debugging the equipment, and then pressed a button, and a pale cyan light enveloped the entire ark, and the entire ark disappeared in place, leaving no trace.
The invisible Spiritual Ark was slowly advancing, approaching the man-made celestial bodies surrounding the pale blue planet.
Soon, the ark stopped not far from an artificial celestial body.
After adding several defensive circles to himself, Huang Yaoshi left the ark alone and went to the vicinity of the celestial body to investigate the situation.
As soon as he approached this celestial body, a touch of surprise appeared on Huang Yaoshi's face.
This celestial body turned out to be a city, a huge space station, densely packed with floating corpses.
With a sweep of his thoughts, Huang Yaoshi found that they had been dead for almost five or six thousand years.
Huang Yaoshi carefully made a hole in the transparent glass of the space station, and followed this opening into the interior of the space station.
He took a closer look at the corpses.
Judging from the physical appearance, it should be a humanoid life.
This was not surprising to Huang Yaoshi, because in the years of starry exploration, most of the life that could give birth to intelligence was carbon-based humanoids.
But the internal structure of their bodies varies greatly, and their organs are somewhat slightly different.
According to the research of the Xiuzhen Alliance, the probability of intelligent life being produced in an ecological environment similar to that of an ancestral star is high, and the life forms born in a similar environment will be basically the same.
Huang Yaoshi carefully scanned the corpses of this life, and found that their muscles were strong and their bones were far harder than those of normal people who practiced for Zu Xing.
Moreover, their average height is a bit short, and according to Huang Yaoshi's experience, the gravity of their home planet should be much higher than that of their ancestral planet.
This kind of similar situation has been seen by Huang Yaoshi on a planet for several years.
That's pretty much what the humanoid life there looks like, but it's just reaching the Stone Age, and it's far less than a civilization that can build such a huge space station in space.
Huang Yaoshi made his way through the floating corpse to an empty hall, and in the center of the hall was an intricately crafted mechanical core, surrounded by words of unknown meaning.
Huang Yaoshi released a magic weapon the size of an egg, and the magic weapon flickered, cracking the meaning of the words.
And so it went on for a while.
According to the translated text, Huang Yaoshi learned that this is the energy module of the entire space station, and the energy core in it is an electrical energy storage device, which can store the electricity converted by the outer wall of the space station and supply it to the entire space station.
Huang Yaoshi urged the spiritual power, converted it into electrical energy and injected it into it, to try to recharge it.
As soon as the energy was injected, the entire inner wall of the energy capsule lit up with white light.
