As a censor whose job content is uncertain and inspects the universe every day, Hao Ren feels that his workload is a Brownian motion. Sometimes almost all things will pile up and happen at the same time. He is so busy that he can't wait for mitosis on the spot to add two helpers. , but sometimes the world is peaceful, all events are silent, and mushrooms can grow when people are idle...
The pursuit of the whereabouts of the crystal core has temporarily reached a deadlock, but it is not actually a deadlock. Strictly speaking, it is because the universe is vast and the range of drone swarms is limited, so no effective signal has been searched for the time being. Hao Ren had already uploaded the information recorded by Anthony to the drone network server many days ago, and also sent a copy to the Crystal Nucleus Research Station. The countless super antennas deployed in the dream plane universe earlier They all stared wide-eyed, and now they are scanning even the weakest message from the deep space of the universe non-stop day and night.
So far, no signal response matching the feature code has been found within the scope of the proven dream plane.
On the other hand, the detectors used to monitor the movements of the various ecological reserves in the Dream Plane did not return any abnormalities.
Hao Ren had been lying at the table and listening to the data terminal giving himself a report early in the morning, while "Roll" was lazily nestling in the new cat litter at his feet, purring while playing with his tail.
After a long period of education, this cat still has many hard-to-change natures. Apart from squatting to eat and forgetting to walk upright from time to time, the biggest problem is that it has to nest in various corners to be comfortable. It happened that Lily bought a lot of things from the Internet, and after unpacking the express delivery, there was a huge cardboard box left, so the cardboard box was occupied by the cat girl. Obviously, Hao Ren would not help her return to animal nature, so the cat girl made ample food and clothing by herself, and put the old clothes and sheets that were bitten and scratched by her in the box with a thick layer, and made an extra large box. The soft nest came out, and now she is nestled in it almost every step of the way except for eating and going to the toilet...
Hao Ren is now worried that this scene will be seen by others. If this unknown person sees it, wouldn't they think that he abused the girl!
"Huluhulu—" the cat girl turned over and kicked Hao Ren's calf with her foot, "Meow, rice."
"I really raised an ancestor..." Hao Ren sighed, grabbed the cat biscuits from the small box beside him and handed them over, "Don't drop too much scum, I still have to clean it up."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to continue listening to the report, but Catwoman raised her leg and kicked him a few times: "Meow, water."
"Go away! The water is right next to your box, won't you stretch your arms to get it?!"
The catwoman poked her neck: "Don't put it in a cup, you can pour it into a bowl for me, meow."
Hao Ren felt that he had indeed raised an ancestor!
After serving the cat ancestor, he had time to continue to listen to the data terminal to report the situation in various places.
"Actually, there is no change. It is the same as the last report." The data terminal floated a few centimeters above the table and dangled gently. "The ecological reconstruction of Zhuom-Tanagus has been completed. It's winter, and they have initially established living camps and production facilities, as well as a certain amount of material reserves, so it should be no problem to survive the first winter; Holleta is now considered a paradise in the Dream Plane, and the turmoil caused by the eldest son has passed , the surveillance satellites left over the planet did not find any remaining ancient organisms inside the planet; the situation on Io planet is also normal, the remnants of the Ark have almost adapted to the ocean planet, and the relationship between Eva and those new guests is not bad. The above ecology There is no need to worry about the stability of the reserved area. Armed drones have been patrolling around each planet for a long time and have set up a space fortress with heavy firepower. If there is any threat, it can be eliminated as soon as possible, and there is no threat at present.”
"How about the gate of Suluen?" Hao Ren asked casually.
"Several Death Star furnaces have been started, where Lemendusa is overseeing the foundry of the Genesis Engine components, and some parts have already been produced. The building cells we left behind at the Gates of Suluen have built large assemblies in space Station, the preliminarily produced parts are beginning to be combined," said the data terminal, projecting a set of holographic images, on which one can see a vast space, in which there are many light golden assemblies with strange structures floating, and in the Around the combination, you can see a lot of small light spots flying around and things like tractor beams, "Except for the production facility, there is no new news about the Suluen Gate. The space fracture situation there is still there, but there is no More 'gods' come out of the Dark Realm."
"Hmm..." Hao Ren pinched the bridge of his nose, thinking about what he missed, and suddenly remembered a command from a long time ago, "By the way, where has the drone swarm expanded now? It's still heading towards the original area in the center of the universe Expansion?"
"Just about to report this," the light on the surface of the data terminal brightened, indicating that this is a relatively important topic, "The expansion speed of the drone group is increasing as planned, and the number of armed drones has been increased according to your order, This is the area they are currently spreading into, a rough star map has been drawn..."
The data terminal projects a complex structure of light spots and lines, marking the detection range of the drone swarm. Most of the galaxies within the coverage area of the swarm are not named, but are generally registered with alphanumeric numbers.
"Due to the fact that many galaxies that have not been registered are encountered on the way forward, although the drone swarm is proliferating rapidly, the actual speed of progress is not fast-every inch of suspicious areas must be investigated, and all material enrichment zones must be left behind fortifications , which has slowed down the expansion speed of the drone swarm. But then their expansion should be faster: the closer to the original area in the center of the universe, the rarer the celestial bodies worthy of attention, and the space in front of the swarm is getting more and more The darker and thinner it is, most of the galaxies in the range are extinguished, and the nuclear reaction may have stopped hundreds of millions of years ago. Except for some cold ash piles, there is nothing detectable in the space there. A drone bunker A fairly large area can be monitored."
Hao Ren looked at the star map projected by the data terminal, and he could see a hazy darkness in front of the large flashing galaxy image, which seemed to hide the oldest secret of the Dream Plane universe. At present, the expansion range of the drone swarm has not broken through the active galaxy area, and there is still a long distance from the dark border, but anyway, the dark border has already appeared within the sensing range of the drone swarm.
"Earlier today, the fleet consciousness sent a report, which mentioned that under the observation of the drone outpost, the dark cosmic space ahead is 'quiet to the point of eerie'," said the data terminal, "even in the oldest primitive nebula There should also be a certain number of stars born, because the creation of the dream plane universe is far from over, but the starlight in that dark area is at least 80% less than expected, as if something happened there What kind of event caused the nebula matter in the range to be burned out."
"Darkness...darkness..." Hao Ren smacked his lips. "Anyway, according to our previous guess, there must be something in that darkness. Let the fleet continue to move forward... By the way, does the drone swarm have a soul?"
The data terminal was stunned for a moment. I don't know why Hao Ren suddenly mentioned this, but he still answered seriously: "No, they just have intelligence. Just like this machine, they have intelligence but no soul."
Hao Ren is still struggling to understand what the "soul" in the definition of gods is, and he doesn't know why there is a concept of "wisdom but no soul", but he doesn't plan to study this field: "Okay, It’s fine if you don’t have a soul, so let’s move on. By the way, they’ve expanded so far, have you found any remaining civilizations or something?”
"Unfortunately, not," the voice of the data terminal was indeed filled with regret, "a large number of ruins of planets destroyed by the eldest son were found, but most of the ruins have been fused into an indescribable mass of matter by the source blood. All matter They are all evenly scattered beyond recognition, and it is impossible to even start the investigation. In comparison, the ruins of Tanagus and Io that we discovered before can be regarded as lights in the dark. In addition, on those completely destroyed planets, some Rare life responses, but they are all crude life reborn from the source blood after the extinction of the world. The life form is extremely low-level and evolves slowly. It seems that after the death of the eldest son, the god-created ecosystem lost most of its power, and the source blood also lost its power. Metamorphism has occurred, and it is already difficult to breed complex life from the source blood."
"...to completely destroy vitality, erase the traces left by the goddess of creation in the universe, change the nature of the source blood, and cut off the possibility of the goddess's people rising again," Hao Ren muttered softly, "it is much easier to explain these phenomena now .”
While Hao Ren was discussing with the data terminal about the Dream Plane, Lily's shout suddenly came from the living room, interrupting their conversation:
"Landlord, landlord! Come and see what's wrong with Doudou!!" (To be continued~^~)
