【Scales of the Hour Frog】

[Introduction: He has been waiting for you for too long......]

This seems to be the trace of human beings left here, an object called "The Scale of the Time Crab", which has a very brief introduction, even so short that it is very different from the usual style of humans.

But with the "hunters" this is something that even they cannot decipher.

Not only these, judging from the introduction, it seems that this is just for him and for "Li Wenyuan".

The so-called "waiting" is what is waiting for him.

It was only after the "Hunter" transferred the object to the vicinity of Li Wenyuan's spaceship that he really saw the appearance of the "Scales of the Time Crest" with his own eyes.

The previous data delivered by the "Hunters" only had a brief video record of the "Scales of the Templars", and according to them, it seemed that a "mysterious force" was interfering with their filming.

And after actually seeing the "scales of the time beetle", Li Wenyuan realized what that "mysterious power" was.

He himself is a data living in the virtual world, and all external perceptions are essentially from the detection of various sensing devices, and at this time, through the sensors of the battleship near the "scales of the time", he feels the feeling of "communication interference" very freshly.

There was indeed "something" interfering with the data transmission in the vicinity, a mysterious disturbance that even his equipment could not detect the source, and even the "anomaly alarm" did not occur.

In the detection of these probes, their surroundings are very normal, and there are no "anomalies".

However, in those sensors that are directly through optical imaging, Li Wenyuan can see snowflake patterns like "interference", they are of different sizes, flashing back and forth around the "scales of the time beetle", and it looks like the sensor is broken.

It's hard to understand why optical imaging sensors have such problems, but this "interference" didn't last long and quickly disappeared without a trace.

After the "interference" ended, what appeared in Li Wenyuan's eyes was a translucent object encapsulated in a transparent observation box, which seemed to be the scales of some kind of "creature".

"But this size...... If it really is a 'creature', it is probably much larger than an Aetherosaurus, right? ”

The scales themselves look like melon seed shells, with obvious curvatures and protrusions, and the light seems to be scattered in an unknown way after passing through its translucent surface, making the entire scale look very dark.

The spectrum received by the sensor also shows that most wavelengths of light are absorbed by it, and only a very few can be reflected on the surface of the scale, or directly penetrate the scale, forming the current "scale of time" in the optical effect.

At the same time, Li Wenyuan also found that his detector could not analyze the material of this scale, which is a very novel experience for him now.

The composition of matter in this "universe" is basically fixed, and generally speaking, at the current level of his detector, there is no need to "sample", just "looking" to be able to directly derive the material composition of something.

However, judging from the reaction of matter on the "scales of the time beetle", this is an unprecedented "new substance", and it is difficult to even define it as a product of this universe, as if it came from another "world".

The current "Scales of the Hour Dragon" is causing an almost imperceptible tremor due to the drive of some unknown power, and although the universe is a vacuum, the transparent box used to carry the "Scales of the Hour Dragon" is not.

The gas disturbance caused by the vibration of the "scales of the time beetle" was faithfully recorded by the sensor in the box and transmitted to Li Wenyuan.

When handing over this magical object, the "Hunter" lifted any program restrictions on the box, so that even if the standards were different, Li Wenyuan could easily break into these sensors and connect with them.

Thanks to this, he also obtained the vibration data of the "scales of the time beetle", although at first glance it looks disorganized, but after more data support, he can draw some "regular" conclusions.

According to the research records of the "hunters", they believe that this vibration is like some insects vibrating their wings to make sounds to attract attention, in order to "attract attention".

In addition to this, they also believe that this regular vibration means that the "scales of the time" are "saying" something, but unfortunately their experts have not been able to get an answer to this question.

For Li Wenyuan, although these vibrations are regular, it is difficult to decipher the secrets, he always feels that the ripples caused by those vibrations are a little familiar, but he can't think of an answer for a while.

"And...... Is this really what humans left behind? ”

After a short period of thought, Li Wenyuan had such doubts.

Now the entire "penal colony" galaxy is no different from being explored, and he has not found any human remains, nor has he found the "observation terminal" and "purification terminal" that should have existed.

If the data he saw was all that the "Hunter" had found, then only this "Scales of the Time Gland" would be the most probable.

The "Hunters" are unaware of the object's true name, and they have given it the name "Anomaly X", and have kept a detailed log of their observations, which is also unremarkable, except for a reference to the special composition and vibrations of matter.

What made Li Wenyuan lock onto the "Scales of the Hour Crest" at a glance was the location of the "Scales of the Time Cland", which was a black hole galaxy, in which there were nearly 20 "dead planets" of different sizes.

Organisms may forget this long-term memory, but Li Wenyuan, who is a data life, is unlikely to forget.

He clearly remembered that there was also a unique galaxy with a large number of "dead planets" in the Milky Way, and the gravitational source of the galaxy happened to be a black hole.

There is also a more important point, that is, this kind of "dead planet" galaxy is also the place where Li Wenyuan first learned about the "Ring of Time".

There, Gray Wind hears the call of the "black hole" to her, and Li Wenyuan also finds traces left by humans near the black hole - "Strange Cycle".

In the galaxies he had walked through before, he had not been able to find this similar "Dead Planet" galaxy again, and this time he found it in the "Penal Colony" galaxy, and he was sure at a glance that this was the place he was looking for.

And this "scale of the time beetle" from there must also have a huge secret.

But unfortunately, he can't parse the secret of this "Scales of Time" now, and this strange way of leaving information also makes him wonder if this is something left by humans.

“…… And the accompanying profile is so weird that they can't leave a message for me in that tone......"

The doubts did not decrease but increased, so Li Wenyuan immediately decided to go to the "Dead Planet" galaxy to take a look.

It was originally under the control of the "Hunter" civilization, but now it was also handed over to Li Wenyuan along with the "Scales of the Time Dragon".

The fluctuations of the leap flashed, and the curiosity to understand the secret led him to put aside the rest of his affairs for a moment and go straight there.

Similar to the scenery in the Milky Way, a "dead galaxy" full of dead planets, the accretion disk of the central black hole is no longer bright, but the outline of the ball can still be roughly seen.

When he first arrived, Li Wenyuan didn't detect any special fluctuations, but soon his consciousness was directly stunned in the virtual world.

He could "hear" what was being called to him, not through the sensors, not through the data network, but as if it were directly in his consciousness.

Almost subconsciously, he checked the integrity of his conscious data, only to find that there was nothing wrong, neither a decrease in data nor a new inflow of data.

The "perception" of the data body needs to be completed by relying on data, and its sight, hearing, and all other senses are essentially transforming the changes of external matter into data, and perceiving them by interpreting the data.

This process will be accompanied by an increase in the amount of data, but Li Wenyuan found that his consciousness data has not changed at all.

Before he could think about what was going on, the "voice" began to call him again.

【——Li Wenyuan——】

This time it was so clear and clear that it was his name in an instant, but the "language" used was incomprehensible.

It does not seem to be any kind of language that exists in this universe, but a language that is more special, more chaotic, more difficult to understand, and yet has a strange order.

It seems to be the reading of the "data" characters that make up this universe, and those number-like characters finally form this "Chinese" name after some combination.

In Chinese it is read like this, but in the reading of "data", it is just the mysterious language.

Li Wenyuan was a little puzzled as to why he was able to "understand" this language, and even understand the meaning of its expression.

But the next moment he stopped thinking about it, because the third "call" came.

He could clearly feel that the owner of the "voice" seemed to have some kind of emotion, perhaps joy, perhaps eagerness, or some higher emotion.

As the "Scales of the Time Dragon" said, the other party seems to have been "waiting" for him for a long time.

And Li Wenyuan's gaze also looked through the sensor, looking at the black hole with a spherical outline faintly exposed because of the luminous accretion disk.

At this time, there seems to be some "creature" writhing in the black hole, and anyone who looks at it will feel creepy.

However, Li Wenyuan didn't think so, but felt a sense of relief.

"Finally, is it my turn to 'name'?"
