Chapter 1571 Deep Space Discovery

Being trapped on this planet is not a long-term solution, but it is not that easy to leave the planetary system - the divine storm entrenched in the X star cluster still shows no signs of stopping. Although there is calm in space on the surface, As long as Hao Ren and the others leave the gravitational circle of the planetary system, it will immediately trigger an energy surge in space. The route will be blocked, the jump will be blocked, and the navigation computer will be destroyed in an instant.

As a result, even returning home has become a risky adventure, let alone launching any investigation in this mysterious and ancient galaxy group.

In order to change this passive and frustrating situation, the first thing Hao Ren thought of was to understand what the ubiquitous divine storm in the universe was, and to understand its strength, structure, operation method, and finally Important - the way the interceptor is judged.

Everyone came to the control center of the outpost. There are large holographic projection equipment and information control terminals here, which can conduct real-time data exchange and control with the Giant Turtle Rock Platform and the drone group. Nolan transmitted the drone group The returned intelligence is compiled here into straightforward and easy-to-understand reports and images.

"This ship sent a total of twenty-two detection groups to conduct a large-scale detection centered on this star. This is the result of the detection."

Above the large holographic projection device, a large number of silver-white lines and fog quickly appeared in the originally starry universe. These lines and fog intertwined into a three-dimensional structure like a network, covering the entire space in an extremely complex way, and This three-dimensional network is not fixed: it is undergoing complex deformation and reorganization every minute and every second. Some old structures will die, and new structures will be created when the silver and white lines intersect. The entire network is simply like a living thing. Things are moving like things, endlessly, and difficult to fathom.

Looking at this network, Hao Ren couldn't help but picture a picture in his mind: a silver-white line of divine power trembling in the universe, each time sweeping across the vast space of light years at super-light speed, some kind of strange The huge visible system operates day and night with the help of these threads of divine power. Any Trekker who strays into it will be ground into powder like a stone falling into a millstone, and he himself almost fell into this situation not long ago.

What kind of secret does the goddess of creation hide in this place? Is this huge divine power system the body of the secret, or is it a steel wall set up to keep this secret?

"How big is the range shown on this picture?" Vivian asked.

The autonomous machine controlled by Nolan flew in front of the holographic projection and danced a lot of its mechanical tentacles: "It only occupies less than one-fifth of the entire X star cluster. This is our current detection limit - no matter how far it goes, There is a more powerful divine storm, and there are many active information explosion points. It may be some kind of trap. Breaking in hastily may cause unpredictable consequences. Moreover, the current range of activities of the drone group is very limited, and detection that runs too far away The group will not have adequate support from the rear."

"Understood," Hao Ren nodded, "Based on the part of the divine power structure that has been observed so far, can it be inferred that the entire X star cluster has something similar?"

"Basically, we can think so," Nolan replied, "This structure has a high degree of order, and its overall distribution trend can be deduced from part of the structure. In a relatively reliable model, this divine power structure covers the entire Ninety-eight percent of the X cluster.”

"I can't believe that such a thing is hidden in this place..." Lily smacked her lips with a horrified expression, "It's completely invisible."

"When it is not activated, the entire three-dimensional network is invisible. Only trace amounts of information fluctuations are active in the cosmic background radiation, and they are integrated with the background radiation. If the drone group had not specifically turned on the multi-band detection antenna, there would be no trace of it at all. These things cannot be found. Once activated, this network will immediately mobilize amazing energy and concentrate it in a small area. What is formed is the kind of divine storm we have encountered - there is a very sensitive The feedback mechanism controls the process of energy transfer. If the concentrated energy cannot destroy the 'invading foreign matter', then the energy gathered by the network will become stronger and stronger. The upper limit of this energy cannot be calculated for the time being, but it will definitely be enough to destroy us. .”

"Obviously, a pretty effective security system," Yzaks crossed his arms. "The goddess should be using it to protect something."

Lily shook her tail: "Maybe it's the crystal planet!"

"Have you found the activation pattern of this network?" Hao Ren asked again, "Why are we intercepted after we take off, but the drone swarm can come and go freely? Is it related to the reaction of life?"

The blockade of the It triggered a divine power storm of staggering scale, and Hao Ren also asked Nolan to test it several times at the edge of the planetary system in the past few days, which proved that the activation of the divine power storm was quite regular.

This made him wonder whether the "security system" set up by the Goddess of Creation had a filtering mechanism to filter out the intrusion of foreign life forms.

"Since it is unable to read the data flowing inside this 'divine power network', this ship cannot determine what kind of judgment mechanism it performs during the activation process. However, from the results, it can be confirmed that it has a function similar to perception, and will Actively scan any entity entering space and be able to detect the life form and energy intensity of the scanned person - this is the biggest difference between this ship and the drone swarm. The energy intensity of this ship exceeds that of any drone, and you bring life response."

Nolan guessed what kind of judgment mechanism the X star cluster's blockade system has by analyzing the difference between manned spacecraft and drone swarms. This is the most effective idea that can be thought of at present. Hao Ren thought along this line of thinking and listed Come up with some differences: "Also - we have divine reactions, but the drone swarm does not; we have complete thinking, but the drones that enter the X star cluster are only equivalent to a small part of the consciousness of the entire cluster. They can be regarded as without complete thinking; the purity of the psionic energy used by the Giant Turtle Yantai is slightly higher than that of the drone..."

Vivian interrupted: "And maybe this interception network is just to intercept me? I should be considered the most special here. I am a thing directly created by the Goddess of Creation, and now I have restored the legacy left by the Goddess of Creation. The divinity underneath, no matter how you look at it, is a signal source as eye-catching as a beacon.”

Lily glanced at her: "Then it can only be said that the goddess of creation was seriously ill that year. Don't forget that the navigation map to the X star cluster came from your mind. The goddess of creation left a message in your mind. Map, just to let you come over and be blocked at the door?"

Hao Ren coughed twice: "Ahem, we all know that the Goddess of Creation is seriously ill. She was indeed schizophrenic back then."

"I think we are off topic," Nangong Sanba looked at everyone and expressed his thoughts, "Since we can't confirm which factor caused the 'security system' to be activated, we might as well try it one by one. Let Nolan first Let's try flying outside without anyone else. If it's intercepted, it's a problem with the spacecraft. If it's not intercepted, let her take us out one by one and try to see who is swept out by the security system... …”

Nangong Wuyue looked at his brother in surprise, suddenly flicked his tail, rolled up Nangong Sanba by the waist, and waved it vigorously in the air: "Brother, this idea sounds like a good one!"

Nangong Sanba was thrown around in the air, with afterimages everywhere: "Then...then you are dumping me...why are you dumping me!!"

May has no guilt: "Get used to it, celebrate it."

Hao Ren also supported Nangong Sanba's suggestion (but expressed limited sympathy for Nangong Sanba's experience): "Nolan, you can try this, but you must pay attention to safety, in case you are blocked by the divine network in the outer layer. You can’t get the space back.”

"Understood. I'll arrange the test when I get back." Nolan nodded, and then switched the screen on the holographic projection. "In addition, I also made a discovery about the divine power structure of the X star cluster. You should be more interested in this."

The image on the holographic projection flashed, and Hao Ren saw a flat disc-shaped structure that emitted a faint light and seemed to be composed of fog and dust clouds appeared in the center of the screen. It was milky white, with a large amount of light on the edge of the luminous disc. The spreading ejection material belt looks like a primitive dust cloud that failed to form a star.

Hao Ren recognized these things at a glance: "Aren't these the strange energy bodies that the drone swarm found in the X star cluster before?"

"That's it," Nolan replied. "These energy structures are distributed throughout the X star cluster. Their distribution seems to be irregular. It is currently roughly estimated that there should be thousands of such things in the entire star cluster. A few hours ago, a A detection drone approached one of the structures and captured this image from a relatively close distance."

Hao Ren asked curiously: "Have you figured out the functions of these energy bodies?"

"Not yet, but the drone is picking up some interesting information."

Vivian next to her raised her eyebrows: "What information?"

"Some were sent to the drone proactively by the other party, and some were intercepted by the drone. This is the translation result of all the information." Nolan directly placed the information on the holographic projection.

"Unauthorized unit approach detected - please submit proof of access clearance or identification code.

“If a valid signal is not confirmed, it is forbidden to approach, otherwise compulsory measures will be taken.

"Unable to contact the central command, take your own response plan - annihilate unauthorized units."

The next second, the edge of the seemingly disembodied cloud composed of light and gas clouds suddenly glowed with brilliance, and the hazy material jet belt turned into a crystal-like "beam" with elegant lines in the blink of an eye. ", this curved "beam" releases a large amount of light beams, and this is the last picture transmitted back by the drone.

It was destroyed.
