The morning sun in the distance is like a little red ball, which looks a little pitiful.
The star is a little far away, and the surface is a little cold. If it weren't for the protective shield above, it would be difficult for ordinary humans to live here.
Jing Jiu withdrew his gaze and walked towards the city in front of him, and then discovered the truth about the mountain in the distance.
The sun rose higher, illuminating the thousand-meter-high cliffs of the mountain range, and there was something inside that kept shining, like stars buried in the mountain, which were part of the earth's crust. It turned out that he was still on the second underground platform, and the real surface was above the mountain range.
A lot of information surfaced in his consciousness.
When the sea of dark matter invades, the machines hidden in the side walls of the earth's crust will activate and connect with each other to form an incomparably huge gravitational field.
The gravitational field and the modified earth's crust will provide the most powerful and solid protection for the underground world, and those buildings on the surface will be completely abandoned, and if those residents do not have time to retreat underground, they will also be abandoned.
Decades ago, the Sea of Dark Matters broke through the blockade of the Alliance Fleet and came to the Stargate base, directly destroying 90% of the buildings on the surface, killing millions of people, and the underground world suffered no loss.
From a certain point of view, this is a very fair approach. The priestess family and major government agencies living on the surface have the most sunshine and the best scenery, and they should also bear the greatest risk.
But with the passage of time, many things are changing. The priestess family still lives on the surface, and many government agencies have moved to the second floor, which is not bad in comfort, but much safer, which is where Jing Jiu is walking now. This land, even some institutions want to move to the vicinity of the laboratory that took over the position of the earth's core.
Stargate University also moved to the second floor after the catastrophe decades ago. It is called the construction branch campus. In fact, most of the managers, faculty, staff, and students are now in the branch campus. The main campus on the surface is only The practice trainees and the mecha department with the responsibility of guarding the soil were left behind.
The ground on the second floor is extremely vast, with more than ten hours of sufficient sunlight every day, and there is no need to worry about safety issues. It can be said to be the best place on this planet.
Jing Jiu walked towards the city facing the morning light. On both sides of the road, he saw many single buildings and small courtyards. The small courtyards were planted with natural lawns, which were not as neat as the artificial lawns of Xinshi College, but they were much more expensive. times.
The closer you get to the city, the more people you see. There are middle-aged people with big bellies running in the morning on the road. They will stop after running for a long time, and there are children playing football on the grass. Laughing non-stop.
The rising sun is still far above the mountain, which is blocked by the thick crust. Most of the city is still in darkness, but the self-illumination is extremely developed.
The buildings in the city are much taller than Xinshi College and the underground blocks, and you can see dozens or even hundreds of stories of buildings everywhere, but they are different from the thousand-story buildings of the main star of the Alliance that he has seen on TV, those who passed through space. Compared with the space city connected to the ground, the elevator is very inconspicuous.
When the ancient civilization transformed this planet, it hollowed out the mantle and built countless working platforms. Those platforms are where most of the human beings live. Due to the limitation of space, the buildings cannot be too tall.
Jing Jiu was walking on the quiet street, looking at the women with their dogs, and the middle-aged men watching the news with their hands waving left and right in the air. There was no change of emotion on their faces covered by hats. This place is indeed a little different from the underground streets. But the difference is still not big, and there is no essential difference from the cities in Chaotian Continent.
The sun finally completely crossed the earth's crust and came above the city, illuminating all the streets and windows, and the whole city slowly came to life.
Jing Jiu used the wristband to take the suspension train to the city center, looked at the slightly undulating avenue and the houses hidden in the woods, and decided where to go first.
…
…
The Gabe Opera House is the largest and most famous opera house on Stargate Planet. There are many opera performances every day. In the morning, well-dressed city residents gather here and walk through the passage under the pool towards the Opera House. Filed in.
Jing Jiu followed the crowd to the ticket gate, stretched out his wristband to the sensor, and heard a beep. A man in a formal suit came over and said respectfully, "Hello, distinguished guest, please come this way."
There were a lot of audiences for today's opera, and there were only a few VIP tickets left, so he naturally chose it.
When traveling around the world with Zhao Layue, he understood the importance of money and the truth that expensive is better than cheap.
The seat of the VIP is really different. He leans on the soft but supportive imitation leather seat, looks at the actors singing impassionedly on the stage, and thinks that if ten years old can ascend, he should learn this craft. one time.
This opera is adapted from a knight, and the story itself is the common routine of family hatred, love and separation, but it is said that this knight is an existence re-excavated by priestesses from ancient civilizations, so in this world Naturally, there is a lot more sacred feeling, the lines and plots are obviously very interesting, the audience did not laugh out loud, clasping their hands together, with a sense of reverence on their faces.
The acoustic design of the opera house is perfect, much better than the TV sound of Zhong Lizi's house. He only heard three areas that can be improved.
…
…
After listening to the opera for ten minutes, he felt that he had collected enough knowledge and experience, so he left Gabe Opera House, walked back through the passage under the pool again, and went to the quieter street across the street.
Across the street is the Stargate Museum and several other buildings with a sense of design.
If you want to experience a civilization, the museum is of course the best choice, although he has already seen all the unearthed cultural relics on the Internet, seeing it with his own eyes is different.
The smell of sludge on those mechanical guns, the smell of gasoline on those old cars, the smell of tobacco left on those paper books... He couldn't smell it but he could feel it.
Of course, he came here for a more important purpose.
Walking into the museum, he walked five times faster than ordinary visitors, and quickly walked through several exhibition rooms such as Modern and Modern, Starlink, etc., but did not miss any details of any exhibits. It didn't take long before he came to the hall with the largest area and the emptiest space.
The exhibits in this hall are all exhibits of ancient civilizations... Of course, they are all imitated, or more precisely, imagined.
The remnants of ancient civilizations are all in the hands of the priestesses, let alone museums, and there are not many records even in the hidden net. Obviously, the humans of the Galaxy Alliance have no knowledge of their ancestors in ancient times, and their imagination is quite lacking. Those exhibits are basically exaggerated deformations of the current level of technology.
Seeing this, Jing Jiu naturally wouldn't stop, walked to the end of the hall, opened a wooden door, and walked down the stairs.
…
…
The third basement floor of the museum looks like an ordinary warehouse, without any anti-theft measures, and there is no alloy door as thick as a wall that is often seen in movies.
The light on the stairs was very dim, protruding into the dark warehouse, just enough to illuminate Jing Jiu's figure.
He stood on the spot, called up the map in the Sea of Consciousness, and compared it with this warehouse, and quickly determined the location, and flew over with a slight figure.
It was a miscellaneous wooden frame about three meters high, just casually placed in the corner.
Jing Jiu landed on the top floor of the wooden frame, put his hands against the wall, and felt the details of the composition inside.
This is a very hard alloy wall. With his current strength, of course there is no problem breaking through it, but it will take a little time, and it will alarm the monitoring system.
The monitoring system and control system of this hidden warehouse are separate and not connected to the Internet.
He didn't think for too long, and with a soft chirp, his fingertips had already pierced into the wall. There was a light rattling sound, and the monitoring system had been bogged down in a place where he could not see it. It would only record the screen according to his ideas. At the same time, the extremely complicated thirty-six-axis lock code in the alloy wall was cracked and began to unlock.
As soon as the wall opened a small crack, he floated in, and then stopped the opening of the wall.
Behind the alloy wall is a dry and empty space, with incandescent lights shining on all corners, like an operating room in a hospital.
There is also a metal door inside, surrounded by a stronger high-poly composite material wall. There is nothing else on the metal door, no irises, fingerprints, and ID verification, only a keyhole.
Humans living in the era of advanced technology know very well that this seemingly simple physical lock is a truly safe lock. There is no need to worry about any data intrusion, even the most powerful cloud ghost in the alliance cannot open it.
Jing Jiu welcomed this recognition very much, and pointed his finger at the keyhole.
There was only a very soft sound, as if mercury had been poured into an extremely complicated channel.
There was a muffled sound from the heavy alloy door, and the lock was unlocked.
He opened the door and walked in, and saw a cube about ten meters high.
The cube is made of transparent material, like a large square glass jar, and the contents can be clearly seen. The glass box contained countless soils. Inside the soil was an old and dilapidated mecha. The surface was mottled and there was no paint leather. It was impossible to tell what color it was before.
Obviously, when this ancient mech was discovered, it was in these soils. The Stargate Museum or the government was worried that it would not be well preserved, so it was transported here together with the surrounding soil, and then sealed and preserved.
This should be the remains of that ancient civilization.
Thinking this way, Jing Jiu walked to the huge glass box.
Compared with the glass box, his figure is particularly small.
In the empty warehouse, this contrast is more obvious.
He looked at the ancient mecha half buried in the soil, and was silent for a long time.
The ancient mech looked at him silently.
