Chapter 1588 The Dead Starship Host

What the three goblins said was so reasonable that Hao Ren didn't even react...

"We don't know the way back! Because we were originally involved in the space turbulence, and then floated all the way here!" "The starship's navigation computer has been broken for a long time - and we wouldn't have it if it wasn't broken. Use it." "You're talking nonsense. We all use it, but you don't know how to use it!" "Anyway, we just don't know where the battlefield is."

The three little goblins were chattering away. Hao Ren was now able to adapt to the speaking rhythm of these bean creatures, so he was able to collect and sort out the really useful parts from a lot of irrelevant information. This time, the clues Very simple——

The planetary fortress where the goblins lived had a big explosion on the battlefield. The space turbulence generated by the explosion threw the huge celestial debris into distant space. In the process, the starship's navigation computer was also destroyed. damaged severely. Now this piece of debris has no power or navigation, and relies entirely on drifting to wander in the universe. Therefore, the goblins have no idea how to return to their hometown.

Although they were born from resonance crystals, they themselves do not seem to have the ability to find their home planet by tracing resonance signals.

But Hao Ren quickly thought of another thing: "Then how did those guys who besieged you before find you?"

"The bad guys can track the resonance signal!" The smallest of the three goblins jumped up and down in front of Hao Ren. Her hair was filled with electric arcs due to excitement, and her words crackled like an electric discharge. "They are We must destroy the crystal, we must destroy the hub created by the goddess!”

Hao Ren heard a brand new word: "hub?"

"The final hub!" said the boy elf with short hair. "This is where we were first born."

"There are all the 'resonance crystals' you call them." "The lightning left by the goddess never stops." "Many companions are born from the crystal every day!" "Most of the fairies live in the hub. !”

"That's the Crystal Star we're looking for!" Hao Ren suddenly became excited, but then he looked frustrated, "Forget it, you can't find it yourself anyway... I'm actually very surprised that those corrupt monsters can I found you by tracking the signal, how come you fairies born from crystals don’t have this ability?”

The long-haired goblin showed a distressed look: "We should have one...but we don't have a queen. Goblins without a queen can't do anything."

"That's right, there must be a queen sitting on the throne for the goblins to work!" "And only the queen can let the goblins know what they should do!" "Ah, I found my psychic regulator! It this time Hang it on my waist."

Hao Ren was a little confused: "But you said before that you don't have a queen."

"Yes, yes, we don't have a queen." "But the goblins must have a queen! She just hasn't appeared yet!" "The goddess said we have a queen!"

"I suspect it's another historical issue left over when the Creation Goddess split her mind," Vivian whispered to Hao Ren, "I'm afraid these goblins are not 'finished products'. The Creation Goddess may not have completed the final step when she created them. step……"

"I think so too." Hao Ren frowned and nodded lightly.

At this time, the data terminal suddenly spoke, and it floated in front of the three goblins: "From what you just said, the navigation computer is broken rather than lost - that is to say, the navigation computer of the Naqdal starship is located on this planet On the fragments?”

"Yes, yes! This fragment contains the control center of the original planet battleship!" "The doomsday weapons are also installed on this continent." "But when the planet exploded, more than half of the doomsday weapons were torn off, and now only what is left is It's time to get off the base..." "But the navigation computer is still intact!" "Although it's broken..."

Hao Ren understood the meaning of the data terminal: "You can't repair it, but maybe we can - can you take us to see the navigation computer?"

The three goblins nodded together: "Okay, okay!"

The control center of the planetary fortress is not far from here. You can see it from a distance after coming out of the great temple where the goblins live. It stands quietly at the end of the great plain, as straight as a black sword. Point to the sky.

However, the towering temple is only part of the structure of the control center exposed on the surface. Of course, a planetary fortress cannot place its vital center in such a vulnerable place on the surface. Under the temple, there are shafts hundreds of kilometers deep and a After passing through layers of armored walls and these insanely thick layers of protection, you can reach the real location of the navigation computer.

The ancient transportation system has long been unusable due to stratigraphic dislocation and energy off-line. However, since this critical location has multiple complementary backup systems, there are still a few lights leading to the control center - looking down from the shaft. , the intermittent faint lights extend into the deepest darkness like winding fireflies, which is daunting.

Vivian spread her bat wings and flew deep into the shaft with Hao Ren, while three little fairies flew in front of them to lead the way. The dim light of the goblin effectively supplemented the illumination of those road sections that lacked lights, allowing Hao Ren and Vivian, two people with night vision, to clearly see the surrounding details.

Most of the shaft is still intact, but there are still many signs of fractures and distortions in the middle. In some of the most severely dislocated sections, the entire shaft even broke apart and moved sideways for hundreds of meters. The extruded rocks almost The passage was cut off in the middle, leaving only some narrow cracks and holes for the goblins to pass through. Normally, goblins can go deep into the control center through these cracks, but Hao Ren obviously can't, so in many cases he has to use cutting beams to open a way out.

After passing through the deep vertical passage, they successfully entered the control center of the planetary battleship Nakdar: a hexagonal prism-shaped hall.

"This is the control center!" The long-haired goblin introduced him by flying in front of Hao Ren, his tone seemed quite proud, "This used to be a very lively place, and the guardian giants controlled the entire fortress here. Fight the enemies, and there are many fairies here to help adjust the status of the equipment and so on."

"But now it is of no use." "Even if this place is repaired, Nakdar will not be able to continue flying. After all, the engine is gone." "The main power furnace is gone too..." "The weapon system is gone too! "But we still come here occasionally, for parties and things like that."

There was a dead silence in the control center. The humming sound of equipment and the bustle of people coming and going were no longer there. However, judging from the size of this hall and the huge equipment specially prepared for the guardian giant, Hao Ren You can still vaguely imagine what a grand and busy place this once was. There are several platforms of different heights in the hexagonal hall. Each platform is large enough to build a house on it. On these platforms, you can also see control devices that are six or seven meters high and similarly huge proportions. Seats: The entire hall is like the kingdom of giants in fairy tales, but in fact... this place is indeed prepared for giants.

The average height of the Guardian Titans is over ten meters, so you can imagine how large-scale the facilities they use can be.

In the great destruction that Nakdar suffered, all the guardian giants who had fought here were killed, but the goblins escaped the most terrifying moment due to their unique life forms and relying on the fusion with the crystal in the fortress. In the following thousands of years, the goblins collected the remains of giants from all over the continent and buried them on the grasslands. The remains of the giants in this control center were certainly no exception.

After burying the giants, the goblins rarely return to the control center, because it is empty and empty, and it is far less attractive to them than the world on the surface that at least still has green mountains and green waters. But at some special times, such as when the goblins suddenly think of the past, they will come back here to commemorate their former comrades through gatherings.

The control center was not completely dark. Hao Ren looked around and found that there were still few and weak lights slowly turning on and off in some corners. If he listened carefully, he could even hear some subtle buzzing sounds coming from under the floor. Or coming from behind the wall.

Apparently some remaining backup energy lines are still operating.

This is the true centipede that never dies. As a super battleship built on a planet, Nakdal has countless subsystems and backup modules. These countless subsystems can ensure that even if the planet is The ship is torn into pieces, and its fragments can still "survive" individually and even maintain a certain degree of combat capability.

"Where is the navigation computer? Or where is its interface?" Hao Ren looked around the hall and found nothing obvious that could be used as a central host, so he simply asked.

"There!" The smallest goblin flew into the air and pointed at the top of the hall, "That's it!"

Hao Ren looked up and saw a huge, almost dizzying dome structure that slowed his breathing for half a beat. Only then did he realize that the real focus of this hall was above his head.

I saw countless huge alloy skeletons crisscrossing each other on the top of the hexagonal pillar-shaped hall, forming a nest-like structure. Pipes and lines snaked and intertwined between these skeletons, forming veins, and all these things finally gathered in one place. , that is a huge crystal like a heart.

The huge crystal was fixed on the dome by a solid metal structure. Hao Ren felt that its texture was very similar to the resonance crystal. However, unlike the normal resonance crystal, this "heart" looked dim at the moment.

This was the first time he saw a "resonance crystal" that did not emit light or resonate with other crystals. An idea emerged uncontrollably:

Every resonance crystal is alive, but the crystal above the hall...it is dead.
