Chapter 1536 Abnormal Eldest Son

After seeing the reliefs in the ruins of the city, Hao Ren knew that the planet's native civilization had carried out a grand self-rescue operation at the last moment. They launched a huge spaceship to send part of the "fire" into space. Although there is no follow-up record of this action on the relief, this at least gives a possibility: some humans on this planet may have escaped.

So his suspicions are not unreasonable: the spacecraft seen during the day are not necessarily from the surface of the planet.

"I think what the landlord said makes sense." Lily, as a literary dog ​​with a sharp mind, was the first to express her support at this time. "The surface of the planet is the eldest son's home field. If you stay on the surface and fight hand-to-hand combat with the eldest son, you are basically courting death." , so compared to the human resistance forces staying on the surface, I think those 'fires' launched into space have a significantly higher chance of survival."

"To be honest, even the Ark launched into space... may not survive," Nangong Sanba smacked his lips, "The eldest son has the ability to fight in space, and the spaceship is always more fragile than the fortress on the ground, maybe The wave of people who were launched into the sky did not escape at all, and the resistance forces who stayed on the surface may have created a place like a shelter because they found the neural activity patterns of the eldest son."

"Both possibilities are possible. The specific situation must be investigated before a conclusion can be made," Hao Ren shook his head. "In short, the existence of survivors is certain, and they are still trying to repel those tentacles on the surface to this day... Nolan , do you have any extra probes?"

"There are sufficient probe reserves. I have brought a lot of those gadgets. But now I only have models that can be used in the atmosphere. The storage container of the aerospace general-purpose probe was blown up during the jump. I have to repair the factory module first." Produce a new batch."

"Inside the atmosphere...that's okay. You can expand the scale of the probe. I hope you can complete the scan of the planet's surface and within ten kilometers of the underground within two days. If you find the survivor's base, you will be hacked." Come here to submit the materials."

"Nolan understands."

"Also, can the engineering assembly bench in the laboratory be used?"

Nolan was silent for two seconds, seemingly confirming the condition of the equipment, and then gave a positive answer: "The laboratory is in good condition, with a slight lack of energy, but it is more than enough to start up only one engineering assembly station."

"You transform several autonomous machines into armed models. Tomorrow I will take them to the forest border in the northwest."

Vivian blinked and reacted immediately: "Are you going to where those aircraft crashed?"

Hao Ren nodded slightly: "Important information may be found there - if the aircraft's data module can be recovered, we can probably take a big step directly."

"It's quite close to the eldest son's tentacles - although the tentacles were injured in the previous bombing, the injury is insignificant to the eldest son. I'm afraid that by the time you pass by, the tentacles will have recovered as before," Wei Wei An frowned slightly, "Besides, it has just been attacked and is probably in a very sensitive state now. Wouldn't it be a little reckless for you to go there at this time? We can wait until the nerve response of the tentacle decreases before we go there. Anyway, the wreckage is right there and you can’t escape.”

Hao Ren had his own thoughts: "The longer time goes by, the more clues will be destroyed. Before more survivor units are found, those aircraft wreckage are the only source of intelligence we can count on. As for the eldest son's tentacles... that thing is actually It's not as sharp as you think. I discussed this issue with Zhuo Mu. In fact, because the eldest son's size is too huge after adulthood, and ordinary 'little creatures' can hardly pose a threat to them, an adult eldest son's Perception tends to respond to large targets and high energy sources. For those 'attachments' that are too small, their nervous systems cannot fully pay attention to them no matter how powerful they are. So just a few people standing on the tentacles of the eldest son can It's like a speck of dust falling on a person, which normally he wouldn't care about: unless you shoot at the tentacles."

Lily waggled her tail beside her and added: "So as long as we are careful when we go there and don't do anything like meteor explosions, lightning chain fusion bombs or anything like that, there will be no problem. The tentacles will mistake us for running out of the forest." For small animals.”

The husky girl seemed to have directly included herself as a member of the expedition team for the next day. As expected, the dog couldn't live without joining in the fun.

After hearing what Hao Ren and Lily said, Vivian thought for a moment and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so she nodded slightly in approval.

"Then this matter is settled," Hao Ren clapped his hands, "Now that Nolan can't move, we will gradually expand the scope of activities with her as the center. Tomorrow I will still take Lily, Vivian and the five After the moon goes out, others can move around the spacecraft within a radius of five kilometers and continue to collect environmental data and clues. Sanba, you stay on the bridge and keep an eye on the communication device and radar, and help take care of Doudou by the way."

The little mermaid immediately stood up from the water: "I want to go with daddy!"

"Be obedient, it's dangerous outside, stay safe in the spaceship," Hao Ren pressed the little fry's head, "And there is Katayama over there, and there is no place for you to swim."

The little guy was quite obedient: "Oh."

The exploration plan for the next day was decided in this way, and there was nothing else to do that night.

After experiencing an attack in space and an emergency landing, and exploring an unfamiliar planet for almost a day and a night, even a person with an extraordinary physique would feel a little tired mentally, so Hao Ren slept particularly well that night. Anping, when he woke up, the alien sun was already shining all over the earth.

Nolan didn't need to rest. She was still working silently when everyone was asleep, bringing as many shield generators back online as possible, rebuilding the crystallization amplification unit of the power furnace, and completing Hao Ren's instructions. down the task of transforming the armed autonomous machinery and launching more probes.

When it dawned the next day, she had already completed a rough scan of the entire continent with the probe: This was due to the severe damage to the spacecraft's main engine, insufficient data processing capabilities and insufficient probe control bandwidth, resulting in low work efficiency.

This planet has more than one continent, and Nolan has completed scanning only one of them, but on this continent alone, she found thousands of ruins and ruins that can be called large-scale. A considerable number of ancient ruins that have been more than half swallowed up by nature are in a state of being severely damaged by the Firstborn. Tentacles of the Firstborn can be seen everywhere around the ruins: including those that are still active and those that appear to be dormant. Nolan found that the state of the eldest son on this planet was very strange. It showed a... half-dead "inert state", which was a phenomenon that had not been observed on other planets.

In addition to these ancient ruins and traces of the eldest son, Nolan also found more clues related to the "survivors": a large number of "fresh" craters and forest fire points that still have heat source reactions, basically distributed where the eldest son explored the surface. Around the tentacles, data showed that they were basically locations that had been bombed recently. Except for the bombing that Hao Ren and his party encountered, the most recent attack occurred a few hours ago.

It seems that the survivors of this planet are still very active. They will carry out active attacks on the tentacles on the continent every once in a while. What is strange is the eldest son's reaction to these attacks - judging from what Hao Ren observed, the tentacles It is true that he will use thunder to destroy the invading war weapons, but his counterattack is just that. There is no rampage that overturns the entire earth after the thunder's wrath, no blood-thousand-mile disaster, and even no further pursuit.

No matter what, Nolan couldn't figure out why the eldest son of this planet behaved in this way: he had obviously destroyed the civilization of this planet once.

As for the survivors' base... Nolan did not find anything similar on this continent, and she did not capture the scene of the survivors' war weapons launching an attack that night. Maybe those armies came from other continents on the planet, or maybe as Hao Ren guessed... they came from space?

In any case, the intelligence that the probe can collect is limited. If we want to understand the further situation, we still have to look at the actions of Hao Ren and others today.

Vivian made a simple but delicious meal using the ingredients that could be found on the ship (thankfully the cabin section of the accommodation area was well protected in this accident, including the kitchen and food storage). After breakfast, the three dogs and men The crew and a Kraken embarked on a journey to find the wreckage of the aircraft.

This time there was no need to collect data in the forest and explore the ruins along the way. With a clear goal, Hao Ren and his party traveled very quickly, and soon passed through the dense forest and arrived at a place with sparse vegetation at the edge of the forest.

"According to the navigation provided by Nolan, the debris scattered area is in this area," Hao Ren walked at the front, observing the surrounding situation with wide eyes, "Everyone, please be vigilant, we have entered the sensing range of the eldest son's tentacles."

"About one-third of these plants are derivatives of the eldest son." The data terminal floated next to Hao Ren. As it flew, it checked the energy readings in the environment and the changes in the magnetic field emitted by various plants around it. "They It is caused by changes in the 'capillary structure' at the ends of the tentacles. This mechanism can sense the weak nerve signal transmission between those broad-leaved trees...these trees have 'seen' us, but the eldest son's body has not responded to this."

Hao Ren nodded: "So my judgment is correct. As long as we don't seek death, this tentacle won't care about a few grains of dust floating around it."

Nangong Wuyue turned to look at Hao Ren, and then at Lily, who had always looked excited and bright-eyed since she left the house. She couldn't help but mutter: "I feel like being with you is like committing suicide. You have When not causing trouble..."

Hao Ren: "..."

At this moment, Lily suddenly sniffed and raised her hand to point in a certain direction: "Landlord, there is a burning smell over there~~"
