Chapter 1628: Signal

Testing of the remote mind array continued until nightfall.

The dark blue sky gradually enveloped the earth, and stars emerged from the darkness, watching the world with an unchanging brilliance. On the barbaric planet without light pollution, the brilliant stars are in an almost spectacular way. Covering the sky, the belt-shaped structure composed of stars flows through the sky like a long river, dividing the sky into two distinct parts from east to west.

It was not the Milky Way as people on Earth knew it, but it was almost as grand and beautiful as it was.

The moon is blocked by the shadow of the parent star, only showing a thin curved arc beside the galaxy, and the base groups and grooves and rifts on its surface have been covered by darkness. In the case of being blocked by the parent star, the brilliance of Zenith is also dim, but because there are a lot of artificial facilities around the space station that can provide lighting, the figure of the space station is still faintly visible, and it is next to the crescent moon , quietly suspended in the sky like a dull eyeball.

Although it cannot be seen with the naked eye, Hao Ren knows that the agents living there are probably in the busiest state since their birth. They are busy reorganizing the social structure and repairing the damage caused by the large-scale EMP impact. The space station is busy cleaning up the chaos on the moon after the disappearance of the fortress, busy studying the data left by humans in the big think tank about the survival of planets, and... busy observing the changes that have taken place on the parent star.

A slouch of Zhuomu means that the great changes on the surface are clearly visible in space, and it is impossible for the agents to fail to see: they keep an eye on the parent star with at least three-digit monitoring equipment all the time.

Hao Ren stood on a tower in the outpost, with a data terminal floating next to his head, reporting the latest situation: "N-6 sent a communication, asking what happened to the tentacles that suddenly protruded from the ground. The previous test triggered It relieved the tension of the agents."

"Tell them the truth. We told them about the function of the remote thinking array before. Now that Zhuomu has taken over this planet, it means that the agents can start preparing to move to live on the mother planet. Hao Ren replied, "Sooner or later, they have to accept the fact that Galactus has become a harmless eldest son, and they have to get used to peaceful coexistence with Zhuo Mu. It only caused tension among the agents? Didn't cause panic Is it?"

The data terminal paused for a few seconds before replying in a subtle tone: "It stands to reason that it should cause panic, but N-6 and the others looked at the parent star from space, and saw a huge cartoon smiling face... This machine guessed it was not When they said they were panicking, they even mixed up their nervousness."

Hao Ren: "...Damn it, it still has this effect!"

Before the data terminal could make a sound, Hao Ren heard Zhuomu's voice from the communicator next to him: "So my emoji is still useful!"

Hao Ren covered his forehead helplessly: "Okay, okay, what else can I say if you don't want to be dignified yourself. But then again, what have you been tossing about since just now? It's late at night and you don't want to rest? "

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked into the distance—the test during the day had already ended, and everyone returned to the rest area of the base to do their own business, but Zhuo Mu obviously did not intend to calm down. , the tentacles sticking out of the ground have changed shape, most of it retracted to the ground, but nearly a third of it remained outside, the dots of fluorescent light are like swarms of fireflies swimming on the surface of the tentacles As they walked, those rays of light merged together, so that the stars in the sky seemed much dimmer.

Under the fluorescent light, Hao Ren could see that large tracts of plants were emerging from the ground around the tentacles. A lush forest grew up with an efficiency that did not conform to biological common sense, and covered the battlefield that had turned into scorched earth ruins. In the middle of this forest, the tentacles protruding to the sky are also "growing" themselves. Its tip quickly forks, and grows huge leaves and hanging vines. The dancing light between the vines matches the streamer in the forest below. Cheng Hui looks very beautiful.

The tentacles are gradually transforming into a towering giant tree that can reach the clouds.

"Pretty? Pretty?" Zhuomu's voice sounded extraordinarily excited, "This is a new style I have researched! Doesn't it look very beautiful? I found that the ecosystems in many places on this planet have been severely damaged Well, there are holes that need to be filled, so I'm going to just give the whole planet a new theme... ”

"This machine feels that the painting style looks more and more like the world tree that came out of fantasy novels..." the data terminal gave a pertinent evaluation, "By the way, Zhuomu, you don't plan to pinch pointed ears and long legs to pierce the leaves by the way. The race is stuffed in? This planet has already registered and settled in the intelligent race... "

"Although it sounds very touching, please don't do it," Hao Ren stopped Zhuomu quickly before he could reply, "The painting style in this place is so fucking weird! I can't even imagine those agents living in Zhuomu What will it look like in the newly generated forest... ”

The data terminal simulated the future scene: "It's nothing more than a bunch of artificial intelligence robots living on the elf-style World Tree, studying druid teachings while pointing to planets to develop technology, and there is an indescribable old dominator buried under the ground. Or, when they have nothing to do, they use their tentacles to make gestures in the sky to observe secretly and to be funny... Hey, it's so beautiful!"

As the person responsible for all of this, Hao Ren could only cover his face with his hands after hearing the deduction of the data terminal: "How did this develop into this?"

But in any case, Zhuo Mu looked really happy.

Although he has an optimistic and cheerful personality, and usually never complains, losing his body is one of the eldest son's biggest regrets. However, as the life gardener himself, Zhuo Mu himself can only live in a supercomputer in the form of data, floating in the cold and boundless space of the universe. This is not a happy ending anyway.

Now, he has finally obtained a new body—even if this body is severely damaged, even if this body is tens of billions of light-years away, even if he needs to rely on a set of antennas and translation devices to control this body , he also still feels content.

That's why Hao Ren didn't intend to interfere with Zhuomu's "play" on this planet. He believed that this eldest son, who was kind, loyal and extremely loyal to the goddess of creation, would handle everything well, just like what he did in Tanagus. In that way, this planet that has been ravaged by war for thousands of years can restore calm and prosperity as soon as possible.

Although he is going to make the painting style of this planet weird...

At this time, Zhuomu's "Fast-Growing Forest World Tree" has grown to the height of the clouds. Although it is only a skeleton with few branches and leaves, it is already a marvelous building in the eyes of mortals. Hao Ren saw circles of halos Spreading out from the treetops, it seemed that something like a protective force field was formed around the forest, and Zhuomu's voice came from the communicator: "Huh?"

Hao Ren asked casually, "What's wrong?"

"I don't know what it is... Ever since I stretched out the branches and leaves just now, I have been hearing voices coming from the universe," Zhuomu's tone sounded quite troubled, "and it's becoming more and more clear..."

Hao Ren was taken aback: "Can you hear clearly? What is it?"

Zhuo Mu was silent for a while, as if he was trying to distinguish the information that was coming from the universe. Hao Ren also saw that all the branches and leaves on the towering World Tree in the distance were slightly swaying, just like adjusting the direction of the antenna. —A moment later, the weird voice that Zhuom deliberately imitated came from the communicator:

"Turn off the whole channel! Turn off the whole channel! No matter who it is, turn off the whole channel!"

"Where did this all-channel communication come from! Oh my god, it's going to kill me if I can't block it!"

"Who knows where this is sent from?! If you can get in touch, let the other side shut down the microphone!!"

"It's over, this one will definitely die, we don't even have a working gun, this will be caught up..."

"Die, die, die, die..."

Hao Ren was stunned when he heard this: "What is this mess?"

"I don't know, anyway, it translates like this," Zhuo Mu said innocently, "And these signals should not have just appeared, I heard something when I projected my consciousness to this planet before Come on..."

Hao Ren and the data terminal looked at each other... Well, he couldn't look at each other with a brick. He just glanced at the PDA's shell and said in bewilderment, "Why do I feel that these signals have something to do with us?"

The data terminal shook: "Maybe it's just a broadcast that a certain civilization in this place accidentally sent into space tens of thousands of years ago. This kind of thing is very common."

Although he said so, Hao Ren still felt that something was wrong. Under the influence of a certain factor called "half-god intuition", he looked around while thinking.

When he raised his head inadvertently, he saw an exceptionally bright star in the brilliant galaxy moving slowly across the sky.

That's the crystal resonant antenna in orbit...

Hao Ren was shocked: "I seem to know what's going on..."

"Huh?" The data terminal was confused (although it has no head), "What do you understand?"

Hao Ren didn't answer the terminal, but yelled at the communicator: "Zomu, can you find the source of those voices?"

"Wuah—" Zhuo Mu was taken aback, but quickly reacted, "Although it is a bit difficult, it should be possible to find—although my perception is also suppressed here, it is better than your situation, and the signal The source doesn't seem to be very far from here."

"Okay, first analyze the source of the signal before it is interrupted—can you establish communication with the other party?"

"This is more difficult, after all, I'm just a tree..."

Do you have a tree like this

"Okay, I see." Hao Ren waved his hand, "I'll go to Nolan and see if I can connect you to that resonant antenna."
