The data terminal was silent for a long time, even with the composure of a PDA, it also felt a huge shock.
Ten seconds later, the voice of the terminal sounded from the communicator: "You said... what?"
"I'll transfer the picture to you," Hao Ren said while sharing what he saw in front of him, "Did you see these tentacles and the devices connected to them. The signals I gave you are all It was cut from these cables. The host of the server is an eldest son... so there is no way to ship it out."
"... God bless you, why do we always encounter such crap!" The terminal yelled, "Try and test other lines, maybe the signal flow is transmitted from other devices."
"It has been tested, all cables are connected to the tentacles, and the signal source is not from these machines, all from the tentacles."
While talking, Hao Ren installed more sensors on those metal cylinders and cables, and at the same time used the transmitter to drive some probes into the tentacles hanging on the roof of the cave. The signals detected by these sensors make the data The terminal had to fall silent.
Vivian looked up at the symbiotic tentacles and cables. This is obviously a very thorough transformation. Not only does the Zhuomu need to design suitable machinery and equipment, but also the eldest son needs to precisely control the growth of his body to adapt to the environment here. Human facilities, if the eldest son does not cooperate, it is impossible to do this with the power of a mortal. Although it is unbelievable, the fact is before everyone's eyes: the eldest son and mortals on this planet coexist harmoniously, and the cooperation is extremely tacit.
"Could it be that the Zhuom people found someone to forcibly control the eldest son... Well, it's impossible to think about it," Lily carefully touched an alloy cylinder beside her, showing a thoughtful expression, "So this The main body of the refuge is actually the eldest son... and the things here are obviously man-made, so the Zhuom people are not trapped in the virtual world by the eldest son, they entered voluntarily. Uh oh, the three views have been challenged."
"Awakened guardians..." At this time, Hao Ren suddenly remembered what the guardian giant had said, "That's right! When the goddess was dying, she ordered some guardians to protect mortals. The eldest son of this place may Be one of them!"
"The guardian who maintained his sanity at the last moment?" Y'zaks felt very surprised, "Didn't it mean that only those guardian giants received the order? The eldest son should all go crazy at the same time..."
"This is what the guardian giant said. But the situation was so chaotic at the time, his information may not be accurate," Hao Ren waved his hand, "Maybe some of the eldest sons were stopped by the goddess before they went crazy, and the goddess may have chosen Everything is possible for other people to inherit my will. In short, let’s not pursue the truth of the year, the problem now is how to save more than one billion people in the virtual world!”
"How to save?" Vivienne pointed to those tentacles with a wry smile. "If it's just a server or a hard disk array, it's okay to say, just move it away, but this is the eldest son who lives with the planet, and it won't be easy to move it out."
"We have successfully transferred once, haven't we, Holleta and the others," Hao Ren still wanted to struggle, and called the data terminal at the same time, "Terminal, scan the deep layer of the planet. See how far the eldest son's tentacles spread. If it's a small body..."
"During the previous tearing of the earth's crust, this machine scanned the electrical surge signal that spread across the entire planet. It may be a nerve impulse of the eldest son." The terminal directly gave a frustrating answer, "Although this machine wants to Gives you some hope. But I'm afraid the Firstborn on Droam is a mature individual whose tentacles have spread across the globe, and unless we can push the entire planet away from the sun, nothing will stop it from burning up with the planet."
Vivienne also shook her head: "Don't forget how we succeeded in Holleta last time—we used the engineering fleet of the Erim elves. The technical strength of the Erim elves is limited, and their equipment may not be able to do it. For this, the planet is too close to the sun."
Hao Ren fell silent, he knew that what Terminal and Vivian said was true. And he knew in his heart that the difficulties were far more than these: Even if the construction machinery of the Erim Elves could be used here, he didn't have enough time to mobilize those manpower and arrange the plan, and he couldn't guarantee that the eldest son would be safe and sound during the excavation process. . There is no way to guarantee that the virtual world will remain stable during this process. Last time, his project in Holleta was to eliminate the eldest son as an enemy, so life and death mattered. And here... he had to make sure the eldest son was safe.
At this moment, Lily's eyes lit up and she remembered something: "By the way, the brain nucleus! The eldest son's brain nucleus seems to be able to survive outside the body, and all its memories and thoughts are in the brain nucleus—the thing doesn't seem to be big, right? "
The hope in everyone's hearts was ignited at once. Hao Ren also thought of the red ball he brought out from the Demon King's City: as the core of the eldest son's thinking, its size is only a few meters. There is a door!
"Okay, let's go deeper and see where the brain nucleus of the eldest son is," Y'zaks said with confidence, "Landlord, do you know where to find it?"
"It's very simple. Follow the nerve signals." Hao Ren immediately pointed to the sensing devices he just set up. "Connect these things directly to the tentacles. The strong nerve signals of the eldest son are all sent from the brain nucleus. It should be easy to detect." arrive."
The research results of the Crystal Nucleus Research Station have finally come in handy. Through the analysis of the two Holletta samples, Hao Ren now has a certain understanding of the biological characteristics of the eldest son. He knows how to track the neural signals of the eldest son and Identify most of the latter tissues and organs. He believes that the brain nucleus is buried deep underground, but it should not be too deep: if it is too close to the center of the earth, it will be roasted by high temperature, which will affect the stability of the brain nucleus.
Hao Ren released all the self-discipline machines in his portable space, together with his teammates who came with him, a large group of people began to install those sensing devices on the tentacles of the eldest son in the cave. The shape of those sensors is like a palm-sized cylinder, which will deform immediately when it touches the object to be scanned, and its lower half can fit perfectly on the rough and uneven surface of the eldest son's tentacles. After knowing Hao Ren's actions, the data terminal immediately began to cooperate. It called all the idle threads of the spaceship's main engine, and began to analyze the massive data sent by those sensors to find the part that belonged to the biological nerve impulse. Everything seemed to have hope again suddenly, and everyone's enthusiasm was encouraged.
Lily was in charge of cutting the shells of those alloy cylinders with her claw blades, and placed the sensors on the surface of the containers storing the tentacles without affecting the operation of these devices. Just as she was doing this work carefully, a sudden attack The strong vibration almost knocked her off the alloy cylinder.
"Boom—crack—"
A strange sound of rubbing rock formations came from above everyone's heads, and the movement was louder than the previous few times. The entire underground bunker began to vibrate violently, and it sounded as if the entire planet was about to collapse overhead. Lily yelled in mid-air: "Wow! Landlord, there's another earthquake!"
"Partner! Sunrise, sunrise!" The voice of the data terminal resounded through all the channels, "The sun is rising, and the crust above your heads is heating up, get out quickly!"
Hao Ren managed to stand still amidst the violent shock, and after the shock calmed down a bit, he looked up at the roof of the bunker, and then rejected the suggestion to evacuate: "Wait a minute, it looks like we can hold on here. "
"Are you serious?!"
"I'm not impulsive," Hao Ren explained his thoughts, "This is deep in the ground, and it should be a little more stable. The collapse of the earth's crust should start from the surface first, and it can last until the second or third sunrise. .And the shelter itself looks solid...Give me a little more time, maybe the brain nucleus is hidden under here."
The data terminal was silent for a few seconds, as if it was calculating the feasibility, and then it sighed very humanely: "I see, it seems that it can really hold on. You must be careful, and withdraw immediately if there is any sign of collapse." —Otherwise, if the disaster avoidance system fails to respond in time, hundreds of millions of tons of the earth's crust will collapse and you will die instantly."
Hao Ren hummed, and continued to work on the work in hand.
A huge long-born tentacles lay before his eyes. This is a tentacles that should be the main signal line. It is placed in a long alloy channel, and the upper part is filled with electrodes and pipes for transporting nutrient solution. Hao Ren stretched out his hand to caress the rough surface of this tentacle. Although this was always the number one dangerous enemy he had to face, a strange feeling made him think otherwise.
"I don't know if you can hear it..." Hao Ren patted the skin of the tentacles, "We are working hard, so please persevere." (To be continued~^~)
