Chapter 882

These Skrulls, who are a bit like a cross between goblins and orcs, are actually a scientific research team. Their duty is to find resource planets and habitable planets for the Skrull civilization.

Although the Skrull civilization already has the ability to transform the planet so that the planet can adapt to its own habitation. But most Skrull still prefer to live on a natural and ecological planet.

Skrull is a huge interstellar empire, and it is normal for those wealthy businessmen and nobles to own manors in several or even dozens of star systems.

Some Skrull nobles also enjoy playing god-playing games. To give a more practical example, for example, the expedition team discovered a civilization whose civilization was still relatively backward.

The progress of civilization is still in the 0.2~0.3 stage of the primary civilization of the universe (approximately equal to the ancient times of the earth one or two thousand years ago). The civilization on this planet still doesn't know why the sun, moon and stars rise and fall, and they don't know that the ground they are stepping on is actually a sphere. They also blame natural disasters on divine punishment or something.

In the eyes of the Skrulls, although these civilizations have their own characters, they have their own cultural customs. But in fact, it is no different from wild animals.

In fact, all the civilizations whose civilization level is lower than the primary form of the universe, the Skrulls regard them as beasts. Civilizations that cannot carry out interstellar travel are not worthy of talking about civilization issues with them.

Have you ever seen how people on earth keep pets? Give a little water, a little food, a little toy. Come and tease them when you are happy, and let them go away when you are unhappy.

It's just that most of the pets kept by the people on earth are cats, cats and dogs, while the pets kept by the Skrull nobles are those primitive civilizations. They are going to play the gods of this civilization, and they will live and die on these civilizations, taking whatever they want.

Because for these civilizations with a civilization level of only 0.2~0.3, there is no difference between the scientific level of the Skrulls and the gods.

The Skrull civilization is a civilization that lacks entertainment, so this kind of god-playing game is very popular among big nobles and big businessmen. Although the Nova Corps has expressly stipulated that any forcible interference with the progress of civilization below level 1 (universe primary) is a serious illegal act.

But the main power of the Nova Corps is concentrated in the Milky Way, and its ability to govern the Andromeda System is actually not that strong. So many Skrull nobles still do this secretly. They also need to find some fun in their lives!

In addition, the living concept of the Skuru people is completely different from that of the people on Earth. It is completely unreasonable for the Skrulls to see several people squeezed into a small house with only a few tens of square meters, just like the people on Earth.

As the center of Skuru's civilization, there are only tens of millions of people living on the planet Skuru for a long time. There may be only a few million or even hundreds of thousands of people living on some other habitable planets.

The material resources owned by each Skrull alone are unimaginable to the people on earth. Even an ordinary Skrull born on a resource-rich planet has more resources than many countries on Earth!

Skrulls live more spread out and are more self-contained. But from another aspect, the Skrulls also live a more boring life.

Think about it, get up in the morning and open the window, your front garden is as big as Australia, and the Aegean Sea is the swimming pool in your back garden. The Sahara is the sandpit your kids use to play in the sand and make sand piles.

Your material is indeed rich, and even a Skrull can live to death without any contact with anyone as long as he has a few mechanical butlers to help him deal with the problem of resource extraction. Simply put can be the ultimate dead house!

It is difficult for ideas without communication to blossom, just like the three-body star in the famous science fiction novel. Their civilization can hang the earth countless times, but they have not produced charming art.

The same is true of the Skrulls. Apart from playing gods on the low-level civilized planets they bought, their entertainment is only to watch the gladiators. On the several famous gladiator planets in the universe, the Skrulls are all high-rollers who spend a lot of money.

Scientific development and artistic development are not equated. The birth of art is often a flash of inspiration for some people, which is like an accidental event. Sometimes there can be continuous flashes of inspiration, of course, sometimes there may not be a single inspiration after thousands of years. Like not everyone can be a painter or write a novel or something.

And these Skrulls are shouldering the mission of the Skrull Empire, to find suitable resource planets for their country, livable planets, and even entertainment planets for playing gods for fun.

However, except for a small accident during the space voyage, a cosmic tide engulfed them into a small wormhole. This is as dangerous as entering a vortex when sailing in the sea.

I don't know how long I have been sailing in the wormhole, and I don't know where I will go. The captain decisively ordered to activate the jump escape device, and he and his dozen or so crew members were teleported to this place.

He doesn't know what planet he is on now, or even which galaxy he is in. Because this is an emergency, what the captain is most afraid of now is that he is on a planet without any civilization. On that kind of barren planet, it's completely finished.

"The ingredients in the air can be breathed, we don't need to use armor, and there is water and microorganisms in the air. This is a living planet." The only one of the eight crew members whose external detection equipment was not completely damaged was the captain's adjutant.

"My reconnaissance equipment is broken and I can't check anything more. There are a lot of functions missing. The emergency jump just now had a huge impact." The captain originally expected the adjutant to say more things, but the adjutant was sorry. It's hard to say that.

The captain could only nod helplessly, the adjutant could not be blamed for this accident. However, if there is life in this world, civilization is very likely to appear.

For example, now, the captain has detected the camping area of ​​Reed, Dum and others in the wild. There are lights where they camp, which is very conspicuous in the wild.

"Artificial light source?" The captain has already judged that this is not a natural light source. The ability to have artificial light sources proves that at least this civilization has mastered the ignition technology. Being able to master flames and tools is already the most primitive form of civilization.

However, the captain prayed that it would be better not to have a group of primitive people living here. In that case, he and others might not be able to go home. Of course, don't live with a group of civilizations with too high a civilization. The ghost knows if a higher civilization similar to Skrull also has the same hobbies as the Skrull people.

At that time, it will be troublesome for a group of people to be raised as pets. The captain's worry is not superfluous, but that many higher civilizations have the habit of enslaving lower civilizations, even if it is a serious illegal act.

The captain and others are going to quietly approach this artificial light source, and then observe the civilization level of these aborigines.

It is best to be a civilized planet with a civilization level of around 1. In this way, I and others can find a way to use the resources of this planet. It can even contribute an entertainment planet to the empire.

Up to now, the captain has not forgotten his mission. He really is a good captain who devotes himself to his work and is a good captain of the Skrull people! Of course, if the people on Earth know how this Captain Skrull thinks, it will not be something the captain considers.

………………

The bivouac of Reed et al.

Reed was still arguing with Doom, and they were arguing about whether this alternative ecosystem should be destroyed. Susan watched the two men quarreling and couldn't speak at all.

She could only turn on a portable projector that Reed brought with her boredom, and looked for a movie that had just been released this year to watch.

"Men in Black," starring Will Smith, tells the story of a group of secretive men in black who are responsible for managing aliens who have come to Earth. This year's box office is a big hit, and Susan has a premonition that this film will definitely have a second or even a third part. Maybe there will be a derivative cartoon or something.

"I said, this is a project I worked so hard to come up with. I can use this to make an ecosystem, a complete ecosystem!" Reed yelled at Doom.

Facing Reed, Dum also refused to give an inch: "Only you? Do you think you, a student who is still in college, are like copying the evolution of an entire planet, and even the entire civilization? Use your birth-boosting potion , use ten years to advance the evolution of civilization for tens of thousands of years? Do you want to advance a little more, or even a million years? Or simply create another intelligent race!"

Reed was very annoyed. He was not usually a public man who would not listen to advice. But when this matter may involve his face in front of the female human Susan, he feels that he must fight. The saying that love makes people irrational is not empty talk.

"But try everything. Do you know how good it is for our graduation thesis that we do an evolution project of the whole ecosystem? You can even get an invitation from a better academic institution and stay in the United States, you don't have to go back to that Poor and backward Latvia!" The young Reed said a little recklessly.

"Don't you want to stay here? Or do you just like that dilapidated Latvia so much?!" Reed raised his eyebrows and said, he was a little domineering.

His attitude and his tone of disdain for his hometown set Doom instantly on edge. Without any thought, he pulled out the melta gun he had just made from his waist and pointed it at Reed, and pulled the trigger almost without thinking.

"No~! Doom! Stop it!" At this critical moment, Susan, who had been watching the two of them, flew over and bumped into Doom's body. This deflected Doom's muzzle.

The rays of the heat melta gun almost flew out by rubbing against the outside of Reed's arm. Reid was taken aback, he really didn't expect Doom to really dare to shoot. He was so frightened that he couldn't stand still and sat directly on the ground.

And Reid wasn't the one who was scared the worst, but Captain Skrull the worst. He and his crew watched the quarreling natives from a distance, and originally planned to continue watching for a while.

As a result, a hot red ray flew over, carrying tens of thousands of degrees of high temperature, instantly burning the three strongest fighters under him together with their equipment into a particle state.
