The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

The current observation results show that the consciousness of the dark worm has been destroyed together with the body at that time, and there must be no operation of reinfecting something with the help of psionic reverberation-the problem now is, this leaked psionic energy What effect will this have on the local galaxy, is this effect negative or positive, and if the effect is negative, how is this lump of psychic energy removed from the magnetic field of the stars spinning like a washing machine before the effect actually occurs? Fish it out.

Scythe of War has never been able to fully understand the psionic energy - psionic energy obviously has a set of operation methods, but he can't understand the operation method.Even if I went to ask the Protoss for advice, I still couldn't understand it... It was like listening to a monk preaching scriptures.And to ask a certain Tzeentch Daemon Dark Rock?

This is also a free demon. Among the various psionic operations, the most convenient ones are wave release and psionic lightning. In theory, it is not even comparable to Tyrann's ghost agent.

At any rate, I heard some superficial information from Kerrigan, but it was only at the level of "slightly understanding"--a little understanding of ordinary people, not the "slightly understanding" of Kong Ming when he delivered the horse.It's enough to make some psionic detectors, or make psionic light blades for dolphins, but to analyze how a psionic echo will affect the stars...

Sorry, I can't do this job.It's not just that big fighters can't do it, so can eminent monks...

"You said, will psionic energy affect the stars?"

"...It's not easy, is it?" Nuonuo showed a thoughtful expression. She herself doesn't know psychic powers, but she has seen some of them in such a long time, and she still has some experience. Minerals have a high affinity, and there are no such things in stars, so they should not be easily affected. Are there any habitable mild planets in the surrounding planets?"

"That's not true." The war scythe projected a star map, flicked it, and looked at it one by one. "Except for a gaseous planet, there are only cold and barren planets."

"Has it been checked? There are no living things on it?"

"Well," War Scythe replied, "it is true that no living things exist. Our surveillance towers have scanned this galaxy for several months, and have not found any signs of living things."

"That's good. If there are no living things, I think at most it's just some ore mutations, and maybe new resources may be produced." She smiled, "Take me to the scene to see."

"That's no problem, we can leave after lunch."

At this moment, the communicator of the war scythe suddenly rang, and he made an apologetic expression to Nuonuo, and then connected the communication.

Suddenly, an excited voice came from inside:

[Big tech master!We are the fourth observation station in the Agni galaxy!Just now, something appeared in the atmosphere of Agni-IV!We detected biological responses and captured video footage!This is a biological form that has never been seen before! 】

"Damn!! Didn't you say that there is no living thing there!!?"

The 'Robin Hood' that was achieved last week was not split in the middle because the shaft was not made of wood.The red circle can clearly see the traces of the arrow tail being shot (this causes the arrow tail to be damaged and cannot be stuck on the bowstring, and must be replaced with a new one)

Chapter 747 Chapter 675: New students after the end

It took a total of 35 minutes from the research galaxy a few light-years away from New Eden to Agni, which existed as a front line before.

Indeed, with both the stargate and the fixed wormhole stabilization system online, it didn't take long to get there, but this time it took only a quarter of the usual time.

The reason, of course, is the power of technology.

When War Scythe said "Let's go to the Agni galaxy now", he was grabbed by Nuonuo, and then began to challenge the speed record of the power armor...

The key words in the so-called sixth-generation interstellar navigation decisive battle weapon are not only [decisive weapon], but also [interstellar navigation]. This word means that this product can fly super fast as long as it wants to.Coupled with the access authority of the star gate, it can be said to be unimpeded along the way.

This is the first time for War Scythe to experience faster-than-light navigation in the open air. The only safety measure is a slender arm that grabs itself—indeed, the defense capability of this hand is far superior to that of ordinary starship armor, but looking at Scary!When he landed at Agni's observation post, he felt that his calf was twisting, but fortunately, power armor wouldn't make his calf twist, and he could still stand in place.

"Actually, we can ask Abigail to help open the door..."

This is the first sentence that the scythe of war came to his senses.

"...You should have said earlier."

"I have to react!"

Anyway, it's good to be here. (nod)

When the two entered the observation room, Scythe of War found the person in charge. At that time, the scientist named Norsa, who was wearing glasses, was carefully watching the pictures sent back by the optical sensor, and he almost climbed onto the screen. .

"Didn't you say you didn't find any living things before? Where did it come from now? What about life forms?"

When the scientist turned around, the expression on his face was as bewildered as seeing the tortoise in his fish tank suddenly transforming into a human form and starting to brush the nunchaku:

"The place of appearance is Agni-IV, which is the gas giant star. The specific life form is unknown... We have scanned before, and there must be no living things there. That place is not in the habitable zone, but there may be living things outside the habitable zone, So we followed one by one and found nothing. And now it just popped up."

The so-called habitable zone has life, which is actually incorrect.The habitable zone just means that water can exist in liquid form within this range, and if there is liquid water, the probability of biological existence will be higher, so if a planet happens to fall within this range, then it is considered to have Greater chance of having life or having an environment in which life can survive.

But after probing the universe for a long time, everyone will notice something——

For example, some organisms probably do not need liquid water... For example, silicon-based organisms that are often heard (not found yet), and boron-based and phosphorus-based organisms that are more likely to exist than silicon-based organisms (Boron and phosphorus each have a ratio of silicon More complex hydride systems, which are also stronger than silicon).

For example, although some planets are not in the habitable zone and there is no liquid water on the surface, there are oceans under the rocky or icy shell, because the core of the planet itself is still providing heat to maintain the internal temperature...

In order to avoid making empiricist mistakes that would make future generations of historians laugh, no matter whether it is the scientific expedition team or other people who scan the planetary system, they will seriously scan every planet and even the surrounding satellites. to avoid omissions.

And the Agni galaxy is special among the special ones—the dark worm itself will affect life, so the investigation of this galaxy can be said to be the top priority.After confirming that there were none, they suddenly popped up by themselves...

Is your special meow a ghost?

"This is an image taken half an hour ago, and the location is the upper atmosphere of this gas giant."

The two leaned in front of the screen, and all they could see was the roaring storm—the video was shot at a very low angle and had already reached the top of the atmosphere, so the image was slightly trembling, and you could see the rapid speed at a higher place than the camera. Changing clouds.

At first glance, it seems that there is nothing strange. It is like this on the gaseous planets. The clouds of various colors are churning violently like waves. There are occasional lightning and thunderstorms. The difference between different planets is at most the color of the clouds.

"Look over there." Norsa pointed to the corner of the screen. "That's the sub-detector we threw out. It's like a camera drone. It surrounds the mother plane and can expand the field of vision."

Indeed, there was an orange thing floating in the corner of the field of vision, which looked like Protos' probing chicken.In the wind at the top of the atmosphere, it seemed stable, and the searchlights in front of it swung around, and suddenly the clouds and fog below were still, as if something had been found there.

A few seconds later, almost without warning, the sub-probe was suddenly dragged downward by something invisible, and the height fell hundreds of meters in just a few seconds, and disappeared into the clouds below.Like in an old B-movie, the victim being pulled into the water by tentacles jumping out of the water.

"What happened?" War Scythe bit his lip, "I didn't see anything."

"It was caught by the wind." There was a fanatic expression on the scientist's face, "This wind...is alive."

The wind is alive?

If it weren't for the current situation, when War Scythe heard this sentence, he would definitely think that the person who said it was a psychopath—or a schoolboy with glasses wearing a blue fat man.It was a powerful existence that picked up the typhoon's egg, then hatched the typhoon and fed it with the hot air generated by the candle, and named the typhoon 'Fengzi', and the typhoon still obeyed his words...

But that's what happened under Fatty Lan's world view, which is fundamentally different from here.

Nuonuo played back that scene repeatedly and asked:

"What do you mean?"

"This is the picture taken by the heat-sensing device on the other side." He switched a screen and started playing "Please look."

"?!"

It was an arm—it lacked everything that should have been there, but it did give the impression—an arm of gas, about forty degrees hotter than the surrounding atmosphere, so that in the heat-sensing system It was very obvious before.This arm rose from under the clouds, and the end separated into a large series of tiny tentacles, which entangled the sub-probe, just like a child grabbing a balloon flying in the air and pulling it down, and pulled it down.

After adjusting the viewing angle of the main detector, it was found that this huge monster was staying under the cloud layer, and the initial estimate was over 1000 meters in length... But War Scythe soon discovered that this group of "living clouds" was in an indeterminate state like an amoeba, It squirmed in the clouds, swallowed the sub-probe into its body, and after a few seconds, it threw it out as if it was tired of playing, and ignored it.

Afterwards, this thing, which was obviously different from ordinary gas, dived into the lower atmosphere and disappeared from the heat-sensitive screen without a trace.

Whether it was Scythe of War or Nuonuo, they all fell into a state of sluggishness after watching it.

"Is this... a creature?"

The specific form of life is unknown. Temeow means this!This is really unclear, it has reached the point where you can’t understand it, okay?

"I don't know, that obviously doesn't quite fit the current definition of 'biology'." The scientist shrugged, saying it was beyond his knowledge. "It seems like a... meteorological phenomenon, but they do show Biological characteristics, such as the ability to respond to external stimuli.”

"This is not responding to external stimuli, but more like actively exploring the outside world. I think they have become conscious... I repeat, this was discovered during a routine inspection. It seems that suddenly at a certain time At this point, these guys popped up out of nowhere, before there were only ordinary, gaseous planetary storms without any characteristics." A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I guess, it was the psychic energy that stimulated some of the gaseous planetary storms that originally existed in the atmosphere. stuff, and then formed...a whole new life form."

As the discoverer, the scientist actually has the right to name this new form of life, but he seems to have forgotten all this and is completely immersed in the joy of this unique discovery.

"The storm in the atmosphere of the gaseous planet has consciousness..." War Scythe pondered the amount of information contained in this sentence, and couldn't help but let out a wry smile, "This joke is really big-are you sure there is no reaction from the dark worm? "

"Not at all. Besides, this is not an isolated body, but a population... We found a colony of new life two thousand kilometers away. They burrowed around in the clouds, like earthworms. Garden loosening!" he said excitedly. "Not only that. We tried to launch a probe in there, and it was thrown out."

"It's okay to throw it out!"

Reminiscent of the appearance of the detector soaring up in the thick atmosphere... I can't help but think of a cartoon-like probe chicken whizzing straight into the sky...

"This is the data collected when it was thrown out." He was busy like an autumn squirrel, running back and forth between the consoles, calling out a waveform that seemed to be obviously regular. "A piece of electromagnetic signal , we guess this should be the 'language' they use to communicate."

"...Is there any precedent, Nuonuo?"

"No...it's the first time I've seen this kind of thing. At this time, I have to use [the universe is so big, there are always things we don't know] to get past."

"Don't get in the way!" The scythe of war originally wanted to hit Nuo Nuo's forehead with a knife, but thought that it would be terrible if the other side came over with a knife, so he held back.He turned to the correspondent. "Send a copy of this message to 32, in full. Then decipher the 'language' as soon as possible."

"Can this news be made public?"

"Don't make it public for now." He shook his head. "This place is too sensitive, and the time is too sensitive...we'll talk about it after we figure it out."

"clear."

This is the battlefield for fighting the dark worm, and just after the fight, suddenly a life that seems to have a high level of development suddenly appeared on a planet... If you say it, many people will start to wonder if this is the dark worm The resurrection of the corpse is coming, which will not be of any benefit to the follow-up research.Even if you don't consider these issues, you have to wait for the situation to become clearer before issuing an announcement.

In the next few days, War Scythe and Nuonuo stayed in the space station to observe and study this unique creature temporarily named 'Void Cloud'.Nuonuo also tried to get in touch with one of them at close range, and concluded that there is no psionic energy in this creature, and the psionic energy seems to be a catalyst to participate in a certain evolution process rather than form their shape.

The void cloud absorbs heat as energy to move, so it will sneak into the depths of the atmosphere to replenish heat. Due to some unclear mechanism, at a specific point in time, the void cloud will split into two separate activities. Just like the division of fungi.

It does look a bit like a creature.

A research team is analyzing the waveform data that is being continuously collected. They compare the behavior of the void cloud with the waveform of electromagnetic waves, and slowly decipher this uncomplicated primitive communication method.Everyone realized that these cloud clusters are not intelligent creatures and cannot communicate in a conventional sense. They can only be observed as research objects. This will play an important role in people's understanding of possible life forms on gas giants.

Just when everyone felt that they had gained a lot, after only four days, everything changed.

The star's periodic magnetic pole shifts caused psionic echoes to pass by the gas giant again.

In just a few hours, the cloud of void that had just begun to soar in this sky was gone.The vigorous limbs gradually disintegrated, and the shape could not be maintained, and finally turned into ordinary wind and merged into the storm, and there was no abnormality anymore.

The history of the cloud of the void has only existed for one cycle, which is about two weeks if converted to New Eden's timing method.Nothing was left, corpses, ruins, fossils... How could these things exist on a gaseous planet?

The only thing that can prove the existence of the void cloud is the observation data and the captured images.

Everyone was dumbfounded——

Halfway through writing the thesis, I really wanted to smash the computer, because the observation object just didn't drop.And the group of people who study and communicate electromagnetic waves every day have begun to doubt life. The large amount of observation data and massive waveform diagrams at hand have become extinct...

"It's almost like a dream, a... lucid dream."

Norsa, who first discovered the void cloud, sat in front of the console all morning, staring blankly at the monitors that didn't capture anything, feeling empty in his heart.

Not two days after this bad mood, a new individual was discovered again——

This time it is no longer an invisible and invisible cloud in the void, but a more precise and stable individual.

Drilling out of the clouds are balloon-shaped plants, their bodies inflated, like giant jellyfish, using hot air to provide buoyancy, floating in the upper part of the atmosphere composed of hydrogen, helium and methane.During the day, it obtains heat from the thermal radiation of the stars, and at night, it descends, uses long air roots to absorb heat to heat the air inside, and rises again when the sun rises...
