Chapter 555: Life-Saving Information

When I returned to that special room, a large group of dragon clan members had gathered here, many of whom had just arrived from the mainland on a suborbital transport plane.

Of course, bringing so many people here is not because we want to occupy other people's bases, but because the pilgrims need our help to rescue them.

There are many space-time anchor points in this strange X-shaped room, and the reason why they are stuck here is because the space-time waves generated by a principle similar to resonance between the anchor points stuck them in time and space. During the lull in time, the result was that they could not get out at all.

Solving this trouble is actually not difficult, because you only need to remove the anchor point. But these pilgrims have been unable to open this anchor for so many years, not because they are stupid, but because this kind of thing is like trying to lift yourself up by your own hair, no matter how old you are It is impossible to do this with any strength.

These pilgrims are stuck in a time gap, so they can't touch the anchor point at all. If they can touch the anchor point, they don't want to lift the anchor point. They have no way to save themselves in this endless loop. , the only way to get out is to rely on help from outsiders.

The space-time anchor is not actually some kind of entity. It is actually a mixture of gravity waves and dark matter under a specific set of rules. I don’t know what it is specifically, but this thing can really stabilize space-time and fix it. The role of its own time attributes.

To remove the time and space anchor is actually to destroy it, and to destroy the time and space anchor is actually very simple, just destroy its stability. It doesn't matter whether you input dark matter into it or extract dark matter, or increase or decrease the intensity of the gravitational waves. Of course, because the space-time anchor itself exists across three time slices, there is no way for gravity waves and dark matter to directly enter the space-time anchor under normal circumstances. Dark matter or gravity waves need to be adjusted to the subspace state before they can have an impact.

In the past, the pilgrims did not ask Mei Lin's people for help. Firstly, it was because of communication difficulties, and secondly, because the pilgrims believed that the other party was not capable of lifting the time and space anchor. After all, the most basic condition for lifting the time and space anchor was to be able to control gravitational waves and Dark matter, and the technical level shown by Mei Lin's people before is really not compatible with this ability. So the pilgrims paid no attention to them.

When I got here, several time and space anchors had been pulled out, but there were still many anchor points that still existed, so it would take some time to solve them. However, with previous experience, our people were very confident about removing the time and space anchors. I already have considerable experience and my speed is obviously faster.

While they were removing the time and space anchor, I found the leader of the pilgrims again. This guy is definitely a senior being among this group of pilgrims, and the reason for this judgment is also very simple. It's because this guy's equipment is different from ordinary people. The equipment of ordinary pilgrims is roughly the same. Even if there are some minor differences, it should be due to different military types. However, this guy's equipment is a bit gorgeous and exaggerated, especially the two large horns on both sides of the shoulders that stand up like each other. The huge protrusion makes it difficult to confuse it with ordinary pilgrims.

"Sorry. I communicated with our leader here before, which delayed a little time. I'm very sorry." After asking the pilgrim leader aside, I used dark matter communication to communicate with him.

The pilgrim leader didn't have any ideas, he didn't care about this kind of thing anyway. Besides, my words were mostly polite, and I didn't have anything to say that I was sorry or sorry. Don’t dwell on my words. The other party just got to the point very directly and asked: "So, do you have anything to tell me when you called me here?"

"Yes. I would like to ask about your future plans."

"Are you planning to do it?" The leader of the pilgrims seemed to be lost in thought. After all, this was not an ordinary question but a major event directly related to the future of their group of pilgrims. However, although it was a big deal, this man was obviously a warrior. Not liking to procrastinate, he just hesitated and said: "I want to know your technical strength first. If possible, we hope to get your help so that we can return to the place where our pilgrims live. But to be honest, according to From some information I learned before, it seems that you don’t have such technology here.”

I nodded and said: "Yes. Your request is not that we don't want to help, but that we simply can't do it. In addition, when we exchanged information before, what I uploaded to you was some public content, and there are some things that you don't know yet."

"What is it that we must know?"

"It's about a massive planet." I briefly talked about the situation of the solar system killer, and then said: "So, we are currently preparing to escape to other planets, and based on our technology, this is actually It’s almost a gamble! Fortunately, with the technology of you and the creators, we have a good chance of winning.”

"No, you have no chance of winning." The pilgrim leader's answer was decisive. I was stunned for a moment and had no idea why he would say such an answer.

"Can you explain in detail why?" I looked at the pilgrim leader and asked: "Our technology can basically meet the needs of immigrants. Even if some spaceships are lost along the way, it is still not possible to send most people to their destinations. Question. As for the restoration of civilization, I don’t think it’s too strenuous, right? We will bring enough equipment to quickly restore civilization on the primitive planet. As long as one set of equipment can reach the destination, we can do it in ten to twenty The current earth civilization will be completely revived within ten years, and then civilization will begin to develop again. I think this is not a problem, right? Could it be that our destination is a planet that cannot support the existence of life? It should be impossible, right? We We have done preliminary detection before, and the condition of that planet should be able to support the existence of your ecosystem!"

"I don't even know which planet you are going to, and how can I possibly know whether that planet is suitable for you to survive?" the pilgrim leader said: "The reason why I say you can't succeed is that you can't be safe on the way. Arrive at your destination.”

"Why?"

"Because of the Zerg."

"Zerg...Zerg?" I felt bad after hearing the words of the leader of the pilgrims. Isn’t this an immigration issue? Why did you bring out the Zerg?

Probably knowing that I didn't understand, the pilgrim leader began to explain it to me. "The information I conveyed to you before contained information about your origins. Did you see this part?"

I nodded. "Saw it. Said we were created by the combined efforts of you and the Creator."

The leader of the pilgrims nodded and said: "Yes, you were jointly created by us pilgrims and creators, but do you still remember the original development direction of the creators? I remember that I also conveyed it to you."

"It seems that we are going to develop a group of combat organisms called bugs, which rely on their super reproductive capabilities to quickly produce a large number of bugs. Then they will flood the enemy with a sea of ​​bugs. Is that what they say?"

The Pilgrim leader nodded again, and then added: "In fact, the Zerg do not need to be created at all, because they already exist."

"What?"

"Don't get excited, just listen to me." After calming me down, the leader of the pilgrims continued: "The Zerg race actually existed a long time ago. This race entered space much earlier than us and the creators. As for when they entered space, we don’t know very well. Anyway, the cosmic civilizations we have come into contact with all entered space later than the Zerg. In other words, the Zerg may be the first race in the universe to conquer space.”

"Is this race so powerful? How did you develop? In this case, wouldn't the universe be full of bugs?"

"No, just the opposite. Although the Zerg are numerous in the universe and have footprints on almost all planets in the universe, they have not shown great destructiveness to the natural environment. On the contrary, this race is very good at integrating with nature. . We still don’t know how the Zerg judge whether the creatures and environment on the planet are beneficial to the planet’s biosphere. Anyway, they will actively maintain the ecological balance. The Zerg we have seen only have very low-level intelligence, so we feel Their behavior should not be judged by themselves. However, it does not rule out that this race has some kind of natural instinct that constrains them to deliberately maintain the natural balance. But we are more inclined to the existence of individuals with high intelligence among the Zerg."

"What is the individual combat effectiveness of this race?" I suddenly realized a question.

The leader of the pilgrims said as expected: "It's very strong. There are so many types of Zerg that we haven't fully identified yet. They will adapt and mutate according to various environments, so there are so many types that it is impossible to count. . But generally speaking, there are several main types of this race, and most individuals are the products of directional mutation of these main types. However, the mutated individuals are highly similar to the basic samples, and you can tell it just by looking at it. What was the original change? There are about fifty types of these main types of bugs. Among them, the weakest combatants, the most ordinary soldiers among us pilgrims, can fight three of them. But the strongest types can fight alone. Pick our large fleet group. Its combat effectiveness is extremely powerful."

"How is the combat effectiveness of your basic units?"

"Much weaker than you." The pilgrim leader said: "You don't have supporting equipment now. If you put on the special combat equipment designed for you, your combat power is about three to five times that of mine, and I alone can You can defeat hundreds of ordinary soldiers of our clan without taking any damage."

"Are we so strong?" I looked at my hands in surprise.

The leader of the pilgrims shook his head and said: "I'm talking about the combat effectiveness after wearing special equipment. It's pretty good that you can take on a dozen ordinary soldiers of our tribe now, let alone fight me. You can definitely do it in a few or two. You are subdued. Your thinking is the key in battle. But equipment is the amplifier of combat thinking. Use the most basic arithmetic method to calculate. You are the multiplicand, the weapon is the multiplier, and the product is the combat power. There is no suitable Weapons, even if your base is very high, but the magnification is too low, it still has no combat effectiveness at all. I am different. The set I am wearing is a special combat set for the Archon of my clan. It is unparalleled in power. You are empty-handed. Of course you can’t beat me.”

I nodded and brought the topic back: "Then the Zerg are so powerful, why haven't they taken over the entire universe?"

"There are three reasons." The leader of the pilgrims said: "First, most individuals of this race are characterized by a lack of brains. As long as they use some very simple strategies, they can be easily put into a disadvantageous situation. Limit their combat effectiveness. Because of this situation, every time we have a head-on battle with the Zerg, we will try to create an environment where they can't perform well and put them at a disadvantage. Moreover, in fact, we are not the only ones who will take the initiative to kill Zerg, almost all civilizations in the universe will actively hunt down Zerg, because this race is so powerful, so powerful that everyone is afraid of it."

"What about the other two reasons?" I asked seriously.

"One of them is what I told you before. They will actively maintain the ecological balance, so the number of insect swarms in a certain area will not be too high. Because they cannot form a local advantage, they have been in a state of being massacred by various civilizations. "

"Then there's another reason?"

"Another reason is that the Zerg will divide into groups. When the number of a group reaches a certain level, a part of it will be separated to form a new group, and then two unused groups will fight each other if they meet. To be honest, although the whole universe Civilizations are all killing the Zerg, but in fact the number of them killed by internal fighting is much higher than the number killed by our civilization."

"In other words, the Zerg themselves have limited their own population size?"

"Yes. Their internal fighting prevents their own population from increasing. Although these bugs are quite powerful in combat, they are not invincible. Therefore, they cannot have much impact on us without forming a numerical advantage. Influence."

"Then why does it affect our immigration?" To be honest, this is what I am most concerned about.

The leader of the pilgrims explained: "The Zerg are a highly evolved race. Although they have no technology... maybe they have technology, but we just don't know it. Anyway, the low-level Zerg have not shown any intelligence, so let's assume that they have no technology. .Although this race has no technological power, their own level of evolution is very high. There is a special detection unit in the insect swarm that can detect subtle changes in gravity waves. If you stay on the surface of the planet or in the orbit of the planet If so, the huge gravitational waves of the planet will block the gravitational waves you generate, and the Zerg will not be able to detect any activities on the surface of the planet and nearby orbits. However, what you want to do is interstellar migration, which means that you need to go through deep space for a long time Sailing.

For the Zerg, any moving object that is more than 50 light seconds away from a planet-level star can be detected by them. If the Zerg is paying attention to this object and the object shows signs of powered navigation, the Zerg will They will immediately determine that this is not a meteorite, but a living creature, and then they will start hunting. "

"Didn't you say before that the Zerg would protect the ecosystem? Why are you saying it now as if they are very murderous?"

"The two are not contradictory." The pilgrim leader said: "The bugs protect the ecosystem on the surface of the planet, and the creatures sailing in the universe will be regarded by them as other bugs invading their territory, so the bugs will kill them. Kill all living things that are close to the star field they control, and the basis for them to judge whether an object in the universe is a living thing or a meteorite is to see if you have power. If you only fly by inertia and do not modify your flight attitude, they will not pay attention to you. But as soon as your engine fires up, you’re dead.”

"What a terrible race! Fortunately, you told us in advance!" I said fearfully. Without the pilgrims’ warning in advance, if we really encountered the Zerg… I would break out in a cold sweat just thinking about it! (To be continued ~^~)
