The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 1564: under the deep sea

Views:

This is the "lair" of Lochmarton.

This incident was beyond Hao Ren's expectations, so that he was stunned for more than ten seconds after seeing the parsed text. He didn't wake up until the data terminal began to hit his head impatiently. God came: "I'll go... Do you know what these are?"

"You just stand still and don't make a sound, how can you go on this machine!" The data terminal flew back and forth, "What did you find? Is this the hole dug by the goddess of creation? Before she created life, she was addicted to it." Is it impossible to dig a hole?"

"This is a lair for Lochmarton..." Hao Ren frowned, "I'm sure now that the red moon is indeed a projection of the founding star—it's just shrunk down. The Lockmarton seen by the world of Luo has a volume of hundreds of kilometers. Even if this lair is the original size on the founding star, it should not be able to accommodate the huge body of Lockmarton... So this should be where Lockmarton spent his childhood. 'The place."

Hearing Hao Ren's words, the data terminal was still in the air for a long while (this probably meant to be in a daze), and then broke the silence after a few seconds: "...partner, you really deserve to be forced by the goddess... The clues are big news."

Hao Ren didn't refute the data terminal at all this time, but just stroked his chin thoughtfully: "Which period do you think Red Moon is the projection of the founding star?"

The data terminal didn't respond immediately: "What period? What do you mean?"

"I have seen the founding star in visions - at least a part of it. In visions, I have seen majestic temples rising from the sea of blood, with white towers and continuous assembly halls , Those things are so huge that even the guardian giants can walk through them freely, so those buildings will be quite eye-catching at any time, but we haven't found anything similar here. The probe has scanned the surface of the red moon, Except for a few reefs and islands protruding from the sea, there are no targets other than the sea on this dwarf planet."

As Hao Ren spoke, he pointed to the lairs that had accompanied Lochmarton through his "childhood" stage: "And there are these things, Muru and Limendusa grew up on the founding star, they But I never knew that there are these relics on the founding star."

The data terminal understood what Hao Ren meant: "You mean... the red moon summoned by Vivian is actually a copy of the founding star's ancient times?"

"The founding star has two eras," Hao Ren nodded, "The goddess of creation fought against the lord of madness and returned and sealed her own memory as the dividing line. In the previous era, only the goddess and Lochmarton lived together on this planet. , the latter era is the stage where the guardian giants, eldest sons, and primordial seeds are active. What I saw in the vision is undoubtedly the second era. I think that the reason why Muru didn't know that there is The lair of Lochmarton is because the Goddess of Creation erased all these traces before sealing her own memory... After all, she wants to delete all information related to the Lord of Madness."

"It seems that she didn't delete it very thoroughly." The data terminal shook its body. "The founding star of the first era has still been reproduced."

Hao Ren nodded, and connected to the communication with New Arim Star: Now that the red moon has stabilized, Vivienne should have the energy to talk to herself.

"Hao Ren?" Vivian's voice came from the other side of the communicator, "How is the situation with you? Everything is going well here!"

"I'm on the surface of the Red Moon, and I've made a big discovery here." Hao Ren knew that Vivienne had been waiting for news here, so he didn't talk nonsense, "Now it is confirmed that the Red Moon is a shrunken copy of the founding star. Its diameter is about one-eighth that of the founding star. It has entities but no gravity. In addition, it has a large number of abnormal properties that do not conform to the laws of physics. I found Lockmarton's lair on the back of the red moon. It is the goddess of creation. Built by myself, judging from the size, it should be the place where Loch Marton spent his 'childhood'. Now I suspect that what the red moon copied is the appearance of the founding star in ancient times."

"Wow-"

"What's your reaction?"

"I'm a little surprised, but it's not too unexpected. I guessed that Red Moon has something to do with the founding star, but I didn't expect you to see the nest where Lockmarton lived on it... Suddenly I feel better Amazing, to be able to summon such a thing.”

Hao Ren: "..."

It seems that Vivienne's mood is quite stable after learning these big news, should it be said that she really deserves to be an elder? High resistance to big news!

At this time, Lily's bluffing voice suddenly broke in: "Landlord, landlord! Remember to take more photos! Come back and show me!"

Hao Ren stared: "I'm doing scientific research here, can you be serious?"

"Then you take me to have a look next time—I think Vivienne's situation here is quite stable, and she probably won't need the emergency stop device..."

Does this husky spirit regard the red moon as a tourist attraction

Just when Hao Ren was speechless about Lily's thoughts, Nolan's voice suddenly rang out on another channel: "Hao Ren, the probe found something on the bottom of the sea—you should be interested."

Hao Ren was startled, and quickly grabbed the data terminal floating around and put it in front of his eyes: "Take the screen!"

The holographic image on the data terminal quickly switched to the perspective of the detector transferred by Nolan. Hao Ren saw a dim red field of vision appearing on the screen. Under the various enhancement filters and image enhancement effects of the detector, The dark red vision slowly became clear.

The detector moved quickly above a rough seabed, and it could be seen that the seabed was covered with black jagged rocks. The rocks receded rapidly, and the seabed in front of them gradually became flat. Then, a large piece of crystal clear crystals appeared on the Before Hao Ren's eyes.

Those are crystal clusters that grow densely like a jungle, most of which have long, straight lines and a clear texture. After filtering out the red color that comes with the sea water, these crystal clusters show a beautiful blue-white luster, which is similar to the original one. The red vibe of the star itself is out of place. These crystals grow in clumps on the bottom of the sea, and their sharp tips reach out to the sea above like the branches of a tree. Among the crystal clusters, Hao Ren saw many hovering luminous objects, which were diamond-shaped crystal shards. Chunk - Looks like it fell out of a crystal jungle.

These luminous crystal fragments and the soft halo emitted by the crystal clusters complement each other, making the originally extremely dark seabed look extraordinarily bright. Hao Ren believes that even without the aid of the detector's night vision function, ordinary people can still walk on this seabed. See everything around you clearly.

"What are these crystals..." He rubbed his chin and muttered, "It looks different from the painting style of the entire founding star... Nolan, can you analyze their composition?"

"The ingredient list has been sent to you, but I didn't find anything worthy of attention. It is a high-strength crystal with strong conductivity, and it has a high passability to arcane and other energies. The preliminary analysis of the shipboard host thinks that these There should be some kind of resonance effect between the crystals, but probably the 'static' attribute of the red moon itself is having an effect. I have no way to observe the direct evidence of the resonance between the crystals, and there is no response to the stimulation of the crystal cluster. In addition, there are One thing is very interesting. I have not found any material similar to these crystal clusters in other places on the red moon. In the material scan results of the entire planet, only this piece of seabed has such a piece of crystal-this does not conform to the general law of planetary formation. .”

Hao Ren frowned, and connected the communication to the public channel: "The probe found a large crystal forest on the seabed of the Red Moon Sea. I'm going to go down and have a look."

Vivienne's voice was a little worried: "Is there any problem?"

"The detectors found no danger, and I'm not messing around."

Vivienne is not hypocritical, she understands Hao Ren's character, so she just said: "Well, be careful."

Hao Ren hummed, temporarily suspended the communication, and then headed to the deep sea together with the data terminal following the positioning coordinates sent by the detector.

After a while, they arrived at the seabed where the crystal jungle was.

The powerful water pressure acted on his body, which made Hao Ren's movement a little inconvenient, but thanks to the existence of the rigid shield and the fact that the Red Moon Sea itself is not very deep, Hao Ren can still withstand this water pressure. Feeling the resistance he received between his movements, he couldn't help wondering: the water pressure itself is caused by the planet's gravitational force, and the existence of water pressure means the existence of gravity. However, the gravitational detection results of the red moon in space But it is blank, which means that this planet does not have any gravitational disturbance to the outside world... This is really a huge violation.

He couldn't help thinking of a word that could explain the phenomenon in front of him: semi-closed system.

Red Moon may be such a system: as a "summon" that does not last forever in the real world, a large number of its physical properties are internally closed. It may have gravity and mass, but these properties are limited to Red Moon itself , it is incompatible with the outside real world, which makes some of its physical properties unable to affect the outside real world, so its gravity is zero when the observer observes it outside. But the red moon is not completely separated from this world (otherwise it cannot be observed), the radiation it releases can affect the outside world, it can also be observed optically, and if someone enters the "system" of the red moon, He could still feel part of it—

For example, the water pressure in the Red Moon Sea.

This is really a wonderful "planet".

With such a mood, he came to the largest cluster of crystals.

The crystal exudes soft brilliance, standing quietly on the seabed like a towering tree, which looks full of mystery. The data terminal flies around the trunk of the crystal cluster, and the scanning beam casts on the surface of the crystal. Bright blue mesh lines.

But just like Nolan's detector, the data terminal can only scan some simple physical parameters of these crystals, but it has nothing to do with the secrets deep inside the crystals.

But Hao Ren has a strong intuition that these crystals growing on the seabed are definitely not that simple—they are different from the material parameters collected from various places in Hongyue, and they are not at all like the product of the planet itself. This is enough to make people extremely curious about them.

The data terminal scanned around the crystal cluster for a long time, and muttered depressingly: "Hey, this thing is just a hard rock, and I can't read anything..."

Hao Ren didn't say anything, just put his hand on the surface of the largest crystal and gently stroked it, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Inadvertently, the burn mark on his palm touched the crystal.

A burst of scorching heat came faintly.
