Chapter 640: Metal Cuboid

"What is this?" Yin Siyong looked at the results of the magnetic field scan, and his face showed a hint of surprise.

Through the magnetic field detectors of the three satellites, at this time they had established a stereoanatomy of the stars of Courage.

But in the midst of this three-dimensional anatomical picture, something unexpected appears.

Several researchers on the ship also stared at the holographic anatomy with frowns.

In one of the valleys of Courage, there is a small "building", which is very much in line with the characteristics of civilized creations.

Michelle scratched his head and guessed, "Another spaceship or ruins of an alien civilization?" ”

"A rectangular spaceship?" Yin Siyong carefully zoomed in on the picture.

I saw a metal cuboid with a length of 3.7 kilometers, a width of 425 meters, and a height of 257 meters, inserted in the stratum of Courage Star.

This metal cuboid is very regular and has a lot of cavities in it.

It's just that there is no nuclear reaction inside this thing, and there are not even very many radioactive isotopes, so it doesn't look like a spaceship.

A researcher was also very surprised by the metal structure: "According to the law of metal formation, this thing is most likely not naturally formed, but there is no trace of radioactive material inside, which means that this thing is not nuclear-powered, does not use nuclear power, is this thing using chemical energy or solar energy?" ”

"Chemical energy? Solar energy? That's weird, isn't it? Another researcher does not believe that chemical energy and solar energy can support spacecraft for interstellar voyages.

One of the female researchers was wondering: "Could it be that antimatter energy will be used?" Or some other vacuum zero-point energy or something? ”

"Huh...... Annie, you think too much, civilizations that can apply antimatter are almost quasi-second-level civilizations, and vacuum zero-point energy is a technology that can only be mastered by second-level civilizations. ”

"This metal structure is really weird."

"Don't be surprised, send a report to headquarters! Headquarters should be able to send someone over to support it quickly. ”

"That's just as well."

Soon, several researchers discussed the disposal plan with Yin Siyong and others.

Through the synchronization server, they quickly reported the discovery of the star of Valorant.

In less than half an hour, the report came to the head of the Universe Defense Department, and then Li Qingye also knew.

Li Qingye has been working in the second Pangu realm of Ganymede through synchronous robots recently, and when he received an urgent report, he immediately pulled the heads of the Space Defense Department, the Space Reconnaissance Department, the Science Division, and the Space Division into the absorption conference room through holographic projection.

He glanced at everyone, Mikoyan, Hill, and Jiang Mingxuan were all confused, and knew that they didn't know about it yet, so he casually shared the file with him:

"You all look at this report."

Hill reacted immediately, after all, Li Qingye suddenly held a virtual meeting, and he must have encountered an emergency.

She quickly flipped through it, and after reading the report, a trace of ugliness and solemnity appeared on Hill's face.

"Another alien civilization?" Jiang Mingxuan muttered to himself.

"......" Michael raised his brows and furrowed, but remained silent.

Li Qingye saw that everyone had finished reading the report, so he went straight to the point: "Obviously, the density of alien civilizations in the universe is higher than we imagined, this is already the second extraterrestrial civilization incident discovered within the solar system, you can tell me your opinion!" ”

Hill was the first to speak: "Chairman, I think it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring of the surrounding planetary systems again, and at the same time conduct a comprehensive investigation of the stars in the Cooper Belt. ”

"Well, you can arrange it!"

Jiang Mingxuan's eyes were a little solemn and said: "Chairman, judging from the alien civilization creations in the report, this spaceship is extraordinary, I suggest that you should be cautious about approaching, maybe there is an unknown danger hidden inside." ”

"Dangerous?" Mikoyan shook his head: "Jiang, you are too worried, if there is really danger, you will not wait until now, after all, according to the isotopic measurement data of the surface layer of the Courage Star, the surface of this planet has not changed significantly for at least 82.31 million years." ”

"I don't think the other party will endure for 82.31 million years, and wait until we advance to a first-level civilization before coming out to do things, which is not logical."

However, Hill refuted Mikoyan's statement: "Doctor, we can't look at the behavior patterns of aliens from the perspective of human civilization, and Dr. Jiang's concerns are justified. ”

As one of the heads of the intelligence system of Homo sapiens, Hill and several seniors have learned a lot about intelligence.

Especially since the last Saturn combat exercise, Hill has been reflecting on how to improve Homo sapiens' intelligence system to ensure that this system does not show arrogance.

Therefore, after seeing the special report of Courage, she did not rule out the danger of the metal cuboid.

Even if the other party buried 82.31 million years under the star of courage, it did not make Hill relax his vigilance, and caution is a very necessary attitude in dealing with alien civilizations.

Li Qingye was more satisfied with Hill's performance, at least the other party was not arrogant, and did not think that the alien creation had completely lost its threat after 82.31 million years of baptism.

"Ciel, this time the investigation of the Star of Courage is led by your Space Reconnaissance Department, with the cooperation of other departments."

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Chairman, for your trust." Ciel stood up instantly, then saluted solemnly.

As for Mikoyan, Li Qingye didn't say anything, he was a scientist-type administrator after all, and he was not very good at intelligence analysis and psychology, and the space division was also biased towards the field of scientific research and production.

And the person in charge of the Cosmic Defense Department, seeing that everyone was talking about the same, he cautiously asked, "Mr. Chairman, do you want to strengthen the defense of the Courage Star, just in case?" ”

"......" Li Qingye thought for a while and asked directly: "How many warships have been upgraded?" ”

"The Earth Defense Department has already transformed 2 Qinglong-class and 2 Chifeng-class."

Li Qingye immediately made up his mind: "Then transfer the warships of the Earth Defense Department to form a task force and immediately go to the Courage Star to deploy defenses." ”

"Yes, the subordinates must arrange everything and nip all dangers in the bud."

The specific arming work, as well as the weapons and equipment of the warships, naturally does not need Li Qingye to worry about, which is also the job of the Universe Defense Department.

Soon Hill set up a professional investigation team, and arranged a series of investigation equipment and synchronization robots on the two Qinglong-class ships.

In less than a week, four warships set sail from lunar orbit in the direction of Polaris, and then entered the ecliptic parallel channel and galloped towards Courage.
