In this weird town called "Condenser", as long as you pay a little attention, you can see many iconic symbols of the old empire, and you can see everywhere on the outer walls of the board houses that are joined by old metal plates Records representing their former use, some marked "with functional area"
Some of the nameplates with words like this are numbers representing the unit number, and there are also blood-red triangular imprints. There is no doubt that this town was built with the wreckage left by the Legion of Destruction.
The entire town is built on a metal disc with a radius of about half a kilometer. As Glick said, this is a condenser. According to the size of its upper cover, Sandora judges that it should be used on a special aircraft carrier. Parts, there are many ramps with unusually high heights around the town, and at the end of the ramps is a circle of high ground with the same height. This "topography" may be caused by an energy impact from the outside, something similar to the main gun of the galaxy. The weapon destroyed the outer armor of the aircraft carrier's cooling unit, leaving a hole like a crater. The condenser under the armor survived, but there were still a lot of traces of high-temperature melting (we will soon be in 〖Guangzhou 〗Ripples of metal melting and flowing were found on the east side of the field, which proved this inference), and now, this crater-like armor hole has become a safe haven for a group of scavengers.
Mercury Lamp flew to the sky and looked around, and she found that the overall terrain in this area was a little tilted to one side, and the "earth" was raised high near the very far horizon, like a ski-jump aircraft carrier deck, while on the other side The horizon on the side is a cliff at an angle of nearly ninety degrees. On the edge of the cliff, something like an elevator can be seen moving up and down rapidly. There are continuous lights over there, and small aircraft can be seen flying from behind the cliff. Rush to the distant sky.
Mercury Lamp told us everything she found. Sandora judged that it should be because the aircraft carrier under our feet was tilted into the ruined planet when it crashed, and at the same time, the huge impact force cut off another spaceship in the distance. As a result, a terrain similar to a cliff was left. There should be a settlement near that cliff, which seems to be much larger than this town.
The height of the mercury lamp is only 3 centimeters, but it can fly around and the noisy mercury lamp makes Glick more and more curious. He tries to say hello to the arrogant doll. How would the situation react and then we had to give Glick a new suit.
The jacket was destroyed by a metal storm by the puppet girl, but Glick didn't look unhappy. Instead, he showed an expression of making a small fortune, as if risking a thousand cuts to get a new dress is not for him. It seemed to be a good thing, he looked at the blade-like sharp feathers behind him, and asked curiously if the mercury lamp came from the latest guard robot made by Dacheng I rushed back to the house, but some residents who didn't show up for the first time were not affected. Now, a few residents who seemed to be old came out of the living cabins that appeared to be of higher specifications, and walked far away. Wave to Crick. It is Sandora's deliberate effort to protect them from the influence of spiritual hints. We need to learn more about this world from the adult population, and Glick obviously doesn't know enough.
Glick was called over by an old man with all white hair and a fat body. After a few words, the latter showed a surprised look. The old man was pulled in front of us, and Glick happily pointed at us. The old man introduced: "Grandpa Barnard, these are guests from the big city. They hired me as a guide and want to see our town!" He is neater than others, and has some simple decorations, which may explain the special status of the other party in this town. He was caught by Glick with several black handprints on his sleeve, but the former didn't seem to care. He just glanced at Sandora and me with some cloudy eyes, a little doubt flashed in his expression, and then he turned his gaze to Glick, where the octopus-like self-discipline machine was gurgling behind Glick. Mumbling, occasionally flying half a meter away and then returning quickly, this brand-new robot made the old man stare at it for a full ten seconds, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions, just bowed to us tremblingly. He said calmly: "People from big cities are rare visitors here. What can this small place that deals with scrap metal do for you?" No matter how you say it, the old man in the fourth circle shouldn't be so easy to fool around. We all know that people's age and experience are directly proportional in most cases. There was indeed a look of doubt on the face, but even so, the other party didn't ask any more questions, which made Sandora and I look at each other and pay attention a little.
"We were just passing by." Lin Xue covered her nose, "I've never seen such a mess, you should understand what's going on."
The wrinkles on the old man's face unfolded, and he said in a very cautious tone: "Yes, yes, people in the big city would have such an idea...Glick, you can take the guests around and tell them about the adults singing praises." About the song, the party will start in a while, and today all the children will get two sugar cookies."
Glick immediately cheered happily, hugged Barnard vigorously, and then led us to see the rest of the buildings in the town that he considered to be very remarkable, but now we are not very interested in those things, after all, these things are no longer interesting. Why is it special? It’s just a smashed spaceship. If we want to see it, there are a lot of recycling furnaces, and there are all types of…
"By the way, take us to your house to have a look."
My sister looked around, showing a slightly bored look, and then said to Glick.
Glick glanced at us in surprise, obviously he didn't expect the people from the big city to be curious about the life of the common people and wanted to go to the shantytowns, but he still remembered what he promised us before, So he nodded happily: "Okay, my house is right in front. But the house is very small, I'm afraid it can't accommodate you..."
As soon as he finished saying this, Glick patted himself hard on the head: "Wow, I forgot, adults from big cities don't live in that kind of place. Please follow me!"
The house of the little boy Glick is on the "high ground" on the side of the town. The high ground is a metal platform protruding more than half a meter from the ground, surrounded by alloy pillars less than half a meter high like a fence. It may be a condenser The location of the particle deceleration unit, but now its original coil and control terminal are gone, probably vaporized with the attack that year. Just like the shacks in other parts of the town, Glick's small iron house is also fixed with rivets and wired welding points, and the orientation is crooked. All the houses in the whole town seem to be unplanned and unfixed. The north-south direction and the direction of the opening seem to come at random. This is because the magnetic field on the ruined planet is disordered, and the planet itself has no rotation direction and structural characteristics of a normal celestial body. It is based on the principle of saving effort and trouble.
Glick led us to the front of the house, then stepped forward and slapped the door hard, shouting loudly: "Waterdrops! Waterdrops! I'm back! Open the door, there are guests! A great guest from the big city! "
I found that no matter where he went, Glick always said the words "guest from the big city", as if we would bring him supreme glory by following him. This may be due to the child's show off psychology. kick in. As Glick yelled for the door, an old, pitted metal plate slid from the wall to one side, I really didn't realize it was a door until the thing moved!
A little girl about seven or eight years old looked out timidly from the house. She was wearing the same rough clothes as everyone else in the town, except that the dusty skirt looked clean. The little girl was very thin, This made her look a little younger than her actual age. The other party had a pair of light blue eyes. Although she was a little shy, she looked very agile and curious, and she had short goose-yellow hair in a mess. Draped on the back of the head, it looks as if it has just woken up.
"Shuizhu, I'll eat this for you! It's too late to come back today, I'm waiting to eat sugar pancakes at the party before the food is finished!", Glick said happily, from the dirty overalls pocket He took out a small iron box from the box, and took out two off-white long squares from the box. The little girl named Shuizhu silently took the unappetizing thing, and quickly Putting it in his mouth and chewing hard, while nodding to us, he moved away to reveal the gap into the room.
"Shuizhu doesn't like to talk, she doesn't leave the house very often." Glick smiled awkwardly at us, as if his sister didn't show enough respect to the guests from the big city and made him feel very cramped. She is a hardworking girl, but she is already capable of doing many things, and the priests in the nearby big towns have praised her."
Glick's hut is not big, just like all the surrounding houses. It is a single-story structure. Several formed metal plates taken from the wreckage of the spaceship corridor form an irregular frame, and the same texture is used on the top. Metal plates, textiles, and soft materials are piled up to form the roof. It is such a simple hut, with iron sheets and cloth curtains used to form several compartments. As soon as our large group of people entered, the "living room" immediately became crowded. , there is not even room to turn around, Bingtis couldn't bear such a cramped environment, and after pulling the protoss five-member group out, the space seemed a little wider, and then Lan followed, as a team with a lot of tails Big fox, it's really a disaster to turn around in such an environment... and Glick's frequent questions while looking at her pile of tails also troubled this unfortunate fox girl.
We looked at everything in this humble nest with curiosity. The things here are familiar, but inexplicable. What is familiar is that they basically bear the traces of the empire, such as those containers with the imperial military emblem. made of energy pipes, and mirrors and lampshades made of "polymorphic Oranc crystal", many household items can be easily seen to be processed from the scraps of spaceships, and inexplicable places But there are some things in them that make people confused about their uses. In my opinion and Sandora, those are the rags that should have been thrown into the recycling furnace long ago, but they are all piled up in the room and placed together with daily necessities.
Glick noticed our gaze and immediately scratched his hair and explained: "I recovered these from the metal station. They look useful, but people on big ships don't accept these things. By the way, take a look at this !"
As Glick spoke, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he was eager to show off his toys to outsiders.
Like a child, he quickly ran to the corner of the room and found a small metal box from a pile of broken copper and iron. Although the metal box was a little damaged, the overall structure was complete, and the crystal components on it were clean and shiny. Carefully cleaned.
"I found this from a very far away place, almost to the territory of another metal station, it still has energy, as long as this is the case..." Glick happily demonstrated for us, fiddling with the metal box a few times, Its crystal components suddenly flashed, and then, a holographic image suddenly appeared in midair. It turned out that it was a portable holographic projection generator.
Due to a malfunction, the holographic picture in the air is shaking non-stop, and only the lower half of the image shows that a large group of soldiers are marching in line, but we can only see the neatly arranged legs, and the picture gradually moves to the front of the army as the camera progresses. After passing over a lot of legs, the leader of the unit appears in front of the camera, a small figure in a black cloak that appears to reach only the waist of the soldiers around him, the figure turns its head and the frame ends there .
I broke out in a cold sweat, and said to myself that fortunately the picture ended here, otherwise Viska’s 720,000-year-old headshot would appear in front of Glick across time and space. This is really a very sad thing. There is only half of the picture, and Viska's little head still appears in front of the camera completely. I can already see the little girl's eye circles are red. Of course, it might not be red, her eyes are red, but it is true that Pandora is grinding her teeth.
While we were looking around and chatting with Glick, the little girl named Shuizhu was sitting quietly on a large chair, chewing hard on the off-white long cube that Glick gave her. The things must be the daily food of the residents of this world. I saw a few similar things on the table not far away. They have a uniform shape and no smell. not taking. According to Bi Xiaoyu's report, there is no agricultural system in this world, and there is no other industry that can produce natural organic matter. All the daily living materials of the indigenous people come from things excavated from the ruins and some old large factories. Those large factories look like They were dismantled from the ecological maintenance system of a large spaceship. Perhaps they are the source of fresh water and food in this world. The little girl "Shuizhu"'s mouth should be artificial organic matter synthesized by such a machine.
Relying on her incomparable affinity, the older sister finally talked to the timid little girl. The older sister asked the little girl about the source of the food in her mouth on the grounds that "people in big cities don't eat this kind of food". The understanding of the world is obviously less than that of Glick. She was immediately deceived by her elder sister, and then told us that all the food comes from the food synthesis machine in the town, but the raw materials used for the synthesis machine must be from a larger Buying in the city, the ultimate source of those raw materials is some ancient "heritage factories". As we speculate, food and water are completely synthesized by machines in this world, just like the atmosphere.
A world based on death can only be maintained by machines.
Glick is communicating with his new partner in the corner of the room. The so-called new partner is the self-discipline machine we gave him. A name, called Dudu, the self-discipline machine without much thinking ability readily accepted its new name, and reorganized its work instructions in this small and cramped cabin. The advanced "unfixed structure technology" allowed it to In just a few minutes, he understood his new job. The positioning sheep established a preliminary connection with Glick's brainwaves, and now it is rapidly reassembling several shattered metal lumps into a ghost for infantry under the instructions of its new owner. It can shield the generator, such a miraculous work efficiency made Glick [excited] scream, he happily pointed to the self-discipline machine that can turn the waste pile into a new look at the speed visible to the naked eye, and shouted to us: "Look, beep! It is definitely the best master craftsman I have ever seen, the two master craftsmen in the town are not as flexible as it is, I want to bring this to Grandpa Barnard, with it to help sort metal, the town can develop!" "This is your baby, you want to give it to someone else?" Sandora looked at Glick in surprise.
"It's not for others, it's for the town to use," Glick seriously corrected, "Things like this should be used by the collective, because work efficiency is the law, and that's what the hymn says "We work, move forward, and overcome everything." , Efficiency is the virtue left to us by the ancient angels, they gave us inexhaustible resources, and made this world as happy as heaven." But I thought "Dudu, it's still my thing, according to the custom, the collective can only use It." Glick sang a so-called "praise song" for us in a very strange tone, and then suddenly looked to this side: "By the way, people in the big city sing praise songs like this, right? I heard that the big city During the party, it is much more lively than the town, you have a big shield that can cover the entire city, and when you celebrate, you project a lot of beautiful scenery on the shield." His question was too sudden, how did we know What a big city, Sandora didn't even intend to deal with this little boy's more and more problems, but fortunately, just when I couldn't figure out how to fool me, there was a burst of lively voices from outside. A loud voice was especially loud amid all the noise: "Hey, hey! Come on! It's time to sing praises!"
