Chapter 520 Return to the Castle
To be honest, Hao Ren was not surprised by his eldest son's space combat capabilities.
This powerful primitive creature has already shown some of its combat capabilities. It can control gravity, generate shields, distort space, and even knows how to use anti-aircraft firepower to destroy targets when facing meteorite attacks. All signs indicate that the eldest son has been a master from the beginning. Know what space is - at least know what "air combat" is. In addition, it destroyed the lunar city of the Magic Empire in ancient times, so it is natural that this monster can carry out space battles.
It's just that Hao Ren didn't expect that the "spaceship" it created would be so clever.
After confirming that the "seed" was completely dead, Lily painstakingly used her claw blade to cut open the outer skin of the thing, revealing the shriveled and withered organs underneath. The shape of those organs is somewhere between that of animals and plants. Although they look like internal organs, their material is similar to wood fibers. Hao Ren also saw the ring-shaped tissue at the core of the seed. It was glowing with metallic luster and seemed to contain a lot of minerals. Hao Ren reached out and tugged on it, feeling that the thing was heavy in his hand: the weight on the moon was surprising. , I don’t know what material it is made of.
"A complete weapon," Vivian touched her chin, "it seems to be specially designed to attack other planets."
Hao Ren was reminded by Vivian. He suddenly realized that the eldest son was not a weapon when it hatched from the original seed - it was just a plant responsible for shaping the initial ecosystem. Although it was powerful, it should not have any Such fine combat armament. The seed in front of me is an obviously carefully designed weapon. It should not come with the initial blueprint of the First Seed...
There is no doubt that the eldest son designed this thing - in a state of complete madness he was still capable of designing such a weapon. Or is there still some logic to its madness? Is it enough to support it to complete this ingenious work of destruction?
Hao Ren explained his thoughts, and the others suddenly became frightened and thoughtful. Lily also waggled her tail and thought for a long time, then suddenly poked Hao Ren in the stomach: "It seems that all civilizations in this universe have indeed been destroyed." , including those capable of flying into space."
Before Lily finished speaking, Hao Ren jumped back more than two meters in a cold sweat: "Don't poke people with your claws! You are not afraid of getting killed!"
Nangong Wuyue stretched out his hand and pulled the remains of the "seed" a few times, and stuck out his tongue: "It is really fatal to have this thing target you. But is there really no survivor in this universe? The universe is so big, there is no way there can even be one that can hit it. None."
The survivors that May was talking about were not unlucky people like Horleta whose civilization had regressed and even their mothers didn’t recognize them, but a powerful race that had successfully preserved the achievements of civilization and even solved the crisis of the firstborn on its own.
"The entire universe is dead silent, and all the channels are only our own echo - or the broadcast coming from the Empire's data link." The data terminal shook its body, "This machine does not think there is any living interstellar civilization here. Times The strength gap between the son and the eldest son is too obvious, and the latter occupies a decisive advantage in life form, unless a race has migrated to other galaxies before the eldest sons went crazy and completely cut off the connection with the home star, and also Nothing related to the Firstborn was brought with them—not a single cell, or they would surely be overtaken and killed.”
Vivian hugged her shoulders and interjected: "There is still a possibility that there are survivors, but they are hiding and dare not respond to any sounds."
Seeing Hao Ren's probing gaze, Vivian shrugged: "Don't forget how the aliens on earth live when hunted by demon hunters: hide in shelters and don't make any sound. Nor does he respond to any contact. The eldest son is more terrifying than the demon hunter, so the survivors will hide more secretly than the aliens, but there must be some civilization alive. As May said, the universe is so big, there can’t be just one There is no one who can fight.”
Hao Ren felt something in his heart and looked up at the twinkling stars in the dark night sky. The planet Horleta hangs in the middle of the night sky, surrounded by endless brilliant galaxies. An inexplicable feeling came to his mind, and he thought that there might be a few pairs of frightened eyes hidden in those silent and cold stars - they were survivors of the natural disaster that destroyed the world, and they had preserved complete information about ten thousand years ago. history record. They may have dismantled their communications equipment (Eldest Son apparently has the ability to track these signals) and sealed themselves in a place where they can completely cut off the breath of life, but these survivors must have left some kind of window outside-unless they They want to stay in the shelter until the universe is destroyed, otherwise they will always leave a way to perceive the outside world.
Like the dove sent out by Noah.
Hao Ren wanted to leave a broadcast tower and broadcast the message "The world-destroying natural disaster has ended" to the whole universe to lure out the survivors, but he soon realized that this was very risky: because he was not sure whether the world-destroying natural disaster was It's not really over!
The eldest son went crazy at the same time, but he did not necessarily die at the same time. At least Horleta's eldest son just fell into a deep sleep. Perhaps there are other eldest sons still active in this universe, and he cannot rashly attract the attention of those ancient creatures.
So in the end he could only shake his head: "Just leave a proliferating passive radar station, stare at the universe, and catch any communication signals. In addition, launch the radar station to a slightly farther place to prevent the eldest son from being attracted. Come to Horleta."
The data terminal whistled: "Roger that!"
The upper part of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform opened a gate, and a silver-white rectangular device several meters long rose up from the Gnaku, and then turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the vast space. Next, it will monitor this star area for a long time, continue to copy itself, and set up radar stations in more and more distant galaxies until the entire universe is included in the surveillance. Hao Ren didn't know how effective this thing was - because he didn't read the instructions - but he thought it looked pretty high-end and should work.
He ordered the autonomous machines to send the seed to the research institute of the spacecraft, and after collecting some tentacle and debris samples on the moon, he led the team and left the place.
The group returned to the Alamanda teleportation point in Tanagus. Hao Ren put away the spaceship, but left behind an autonomous machine before leaving. He asked the little robot to collect materials here to build a series of protective walls to at least seal off the square and, if possible, to fortify it into a fortress. The next time he comes over, he will bring some weapons and teleport Allamanda to the square for further protection.
The lavender light film connecting the dream plane and the surface world is still emitting a regular glow, and this space crack has completely stabilized. Everyone passed through the light film and immediately felt a cold wind blowing in their faces.
In front of us was the dark and vast snowfield, and everyone returned to Andre Castle again.
"I really didn't expect that I would encounter so many things this time." Lily retracted her ears and tail and returned to human form. She jumped up and down to express her happiness. "I originally thought I would just stop by and check out the situation, but it turned out I’ve been wandering around for more than a week.”
Hao Ren also looked at the vast snowfield in front of him with emotion. Returning from the dream plane to the outer world always gave him an inexplicable sense of separation, but this time traveling through the space rift between the two worlds did not weaken this feeling. illusion.
Nangong Wuyu jumped off the stone platform immediately: "Let's go up and scare Andre's family."
Hao Ren: "..."
I don’t know if Nangong Wuyue’s crow’s mouth really worked or something else happened. When Hao Ren and the others pushed out the iron door of the underground palace, they actually met Igor. The old man should be taking care of the things that had gone up in the basement. He was looking at an old family portrait when he suddenly heard a clang from the iron door behind him - at that time, he thought that the evil spirit was pretending to be a corpse to come to him for a fight to the death, but when he turned around, it turned out to be the witch who had been "missing" for a week. and masters. At that time, he clapped his hands in surprise: "Hey——"
And then it turned out again.
The butler was standing guard next to him. This loyal and good butler seemed to be familiar with this rhythm. He helped his master up in a familiar manner, then pinched the acupoints to smell the incense and poured incense (this time the pain was more serious), and then calmly put the old man into bed. Rescued. Igor opened his eyes and looked at Hao Ren and others blankly: "You have been missing for a week...I thought something happened!"
"We went to a very far place," Vivian smiled. "As for magic, don't get into the details."
