The interior of the container—Qi Guang hesitated for a moment before calling the scene captured by the small lens this, although the damp and sticky enclosed space looked more like the body cavity of a living creature.
There is a gel-like light yellow liquid at the bottom, and the residue inside can be vaguely seen.
Like the half-digested stomach of some animal, you can still see the stranded skull and fragments of glass.
It's even more disgusting than the liquid that overflows from the opening.
Heath noticed something different about the floating objects in the container's gel.
"Can you get a little closer?" Heath pointed to the top of the screen, where there was a small square that looked like a mechanical product with a circle of delicate patterns on it. Although it was not very obvious, Heath was 80% sure that it was the text of Glori Star.
The three characters are coiled into a circle, and in the words of Glori Star there is only one meaning—
Long live Glory!
Or it can be translated into something like "Glory's Immortal Glory". A circle of patterns is engraved on the surface of the small square like a badge.
There is no doubt that this thing belongs to the planet Glori, and there is sufficient reason to infer that the current state of this place is closely related to that planet.
However, due to the special circumstances of Glori becoming a dead star, interstellar scientists have not found the remains of the native intelligent species there until now. They can only infer through relics and documents that the intelligent species living on that planet were "wise", "intelligent" and "united".
As for its specific form, whether it is carbon-based, silicon-based or something else, it is beyond the scope of their research results.
Qi Guang tried to let the small lens extend its mechanical claws to grab the small cubes in the mucus and bring them back. The strange stench that came with it made Heath unable to hold back his anger and he squatted aside and retched violently.
Qi Guang could not smell the strange stench that Heath described. The mucus on the small cubes smelled no different from plain water to him. However, from a visual point of view, Su Bai did see some clues.
It has become almost invisible due to the passage of several years, but when one carefully distinguishes the colors in the field of vision, the slight abnormality carried by the mucus is clearly visible.
Some kind of "thread" extending from the mucus formed a spider web structure like blood splatter, densely covering the container yard.
Outside this maze of containers, zombies were either lurking or wandering. They seemed to be able to smell the strange odor just like Heath, and they only moved around the edge and refused to get closer.
Heath pinched his nose and poked the small cube with a branch, and saw clearly what the six sides of the small cube looked like.
One side has the emblem of Long Live Glory, and the other sides are engraved with uneven patterns, which can be used to rotate along the patterns to change the shape of the block.
The mucus dripped down along the lines on the small cube. Qi Guang took a little as a sample and caught a zombie for experiment.
Just getting close to the slime, the zombies showed full resistance and struggle, struggling to their death like prey facing their natural enemies.
"!!!"
Qi Guang only dropped a drop of mucus on the zombie's skin, and the zombie immediately let out a high-frequency scream. Even though the black eyes could not show any emotions of any living thing, one could feel that it must be in great pain at this moment.
As a predator that hunts humans, it is very fast and very strong, and its skin is tough and has strong self-healing abilities, but none of this can prevent it from being corroded by mucus and emitting sizzling smoke.
After a few seconds, there was only a large cloud of black smoke drifting away, and ash-like debris falling on the ground.
The mucus, which has some preservative effect on human corpses, is no different from extremely corrosive acid to zombies. It corrodes them completely in a few seconds without leaving any residue.
Qi Guang raised his eyebrows and didn't react much, but Heath was really scared and nervously grabbed Qi Guang and checked him several times.
—Qi Guang never told him about the zombies’ physique, but he never concealed the abnormality of his own body. Anyone with a little attention could guess it.
Qi Guang had to use a kiss to calm Heath down, and directed the small camera to search again to see if there were any other clues.
Find clues and solve puzzles, this gameplay is a bit like escaping a room.
Qi Guang can’t be said to like it, but he is good at it.
He found the corresponding ship to unload at the port from the label marks on the container - there were dozens of large and small ships moored at the port, with a few zombies wandering on the tattered hulls, giving it a feeling of a hellish sea where ghost ships were docked.
The freighter that unloaded the containers was among these ships. Since the markings on the hull were badly corroded, it was already dark when the target freighter was found.
Hmm.
Qi Guang narrowed his eyes. When the surrounding environment was dim, his vision would automatically switch to the zombie's thermal perspective. Looking at the target ship from this angle, he could clearly see the difference between it and the surrounding ships.
In his eyes, ordinary ships appeared to be an inorganic, cold blue, while the ship he was looking for appeared to be a slightly warmer blue-purple color between "objects" and "life."
The diffused colors made it impossible for him to see the exact appearance of the freighter, but just by looking at the outline, Qi Guang could tell that this was not what a ship should look like.
It was a vague and huge spherical object, whose outline and boundaries were changing very unclearly, like the breathing of a living creature.
"What did you see?" Qi Guang pointed at the ship and asked.
"It looks like a ship." Su Bai rubbed his eyes, trying to find something strange. "It looks like the big cargo ships on TV. It's badly corroded and broken."
Heath approached the ship, walked a few hundred meters, and then retreated. He summed up his impression with one word, "stinky."
The whole area around the ship was filled with the stench of mucus, but strangely, once you left the area, you could no longer smell anything.
Qi Guang nodded, and told the furry creatures to stay on guard against the restless zombies after nightfall, while he took Heath and Suba to the ship.
Of course, all the defense settings are still on. According to the system, Qi Guang's defense level can keep him safe even in a nuclear explosion.
If you look closer, the outline turns into a boat.
Qi Guang narrowed his eyes, and within a few seconds his outline twisted and deformed, then expanded back to the shape of a sphere.
He tried to have the system scan the ship, but the results showed nothing unusual.
Heath turned into a huge white bird and carried Qi Guang and Su Bai, flying from the dock to the "ship".
"A little to the left, yes, and a little forward." Qi Guang directed Heath to throw him to the overlapping part of the spherical object and the outline of the ship.
Now he could see the furnishings around him, which looked no different from ordinary cargo ships. Everything was glowing with a cold blue light, as if the purple color he had just seen in the distance was just a temporary dazzle.
Scan it.
Qi Guang spent points and asked the system to confirm the situation of the ship again.
From the moment he entered Ning Port, he had been constantly letting the system scan the surrounding situation in order to keep as many variables under his control as possible. Even though the ship had been scanned more than a dozen times, there were no abnormalities every time.
The system performed the scanning task again diligently, without any of the half-heartedness that humans would show when repeating the same task a dozen times.
This time it marked a red dot on the deck. Although it was extremely faint, when Qi Guang was on the boat, it could measure a little bit of fluctuation in the value from there.
This is roughly equivalent to the tiny impact that a single human breath has on the entire Earth's carbon dioxide content.
What was marked by the system was a sewer, dark and bottomless.
Qi Guang estimated the diameter of the drain outlet and threw the small cube he took out of the container into it.
The patterned side faced upwards, and relying on intuition, he twisted the shape slightly and adjusted the direction - spiritual evolution had a certain bonus effect on intuition, and Qi Guang intuitively felt that there should be no problem doing this.
The outline of the ship in his sight began to distort, changing from the hard texture of steel to some kind of elastic colloid. A light suddenly lit up, returning his vision, which was filled with blocks of color, to its original state.
Everything that came into view was just as Su Bai had described.
The sky above was shining as brightly as a gem, and all around was floating light like an endless sea of stars. The whole space was so bright and dazzling that people could not open their eyes. The only thing that was missing was the slimes that surrounded them.
Sizzle—sizzle—
There was a sound of electricity slowly and faintly ringing in their minds, intermittent but clear.
