Chapter 1972 U Beyond Event (Eighty-Nine)

"Why are you looking at me?" Schiller glared at Loki and said, "I am just an unknown psychiatrist on Earth, and you are a famous swindler in the interstellar space."

"Then who made me a swindler?" Loki also glared at Schiller and said, "Is there any psychiatrist in the world who is better at soliciting customers and charging higher fees than you?"

The two stared at each other for a long time, and finally decided to shut up before the other party brought up his dark history.

Thor obviously didn't want to care about Loki's dark history, so he brought the topic back to the point.

"As I said, the so-called Hewei crystal and this thick fog that blocks the crystal energy may have been created by advanced alien civilizations, but I don't know why other civilizations do this."

"That's why I hope you can tell me the clues you have investigated." Schiller shrugged and said, "Then I will tell you my findings."

The two Batmen looked at each other again, and the Lord Batman glanced at the totem pole fragment in Schiller's hand.

Then he looked around again. He had just noticed that all the people around him were Schiller's acquaintances. It seemed that Dr. Schiller was an important figure in every universe. So why hadn't he heard of him in his own universe?

Lord Batman recalled carefully and looked at Lord Superman again. Lord Superman shook his head gently, indicating that he didn't know him before.

The two exchanged glances and decided to check it out after returning. However, Lord Batman also wanted to know the truth of the matter. The time was too short and the clues found were incomplete. He could only rely on exchanging information to complete the story, so he spoke first: "I found a lot of information in the institute, but I think one of them is very noteworthy. The research topic is in medicine, and it studies how to prolong the life of the Hewei people."

"Wait, do you know their writing?" Eddie asked.

"On the way to the institute, I deciphered some commonly used ones." Batman wrote a few words in the air with his fingers, roughly explained their meaning, and then said: "And just like human papers, most of them are accompanied by pictures and diagrams, and you can guess the general idea by reading the pictures."

"The latter part of this paper is probably about the impact of the Hewei crystal on the Hewei people's body. There are too many professional terms, but I found a very important piece of information. The corpse of the Hewei people in the accompanying picture is red and has been crystallized."

As soon as this was said, everyone frowned, and Bai Guan also frowned and said: "I also found this point. The places I went to, There was abnormal red dust on the ground, and one of the ground was sprinkled with paint, and the red dust left behind looked like a human body and arms. "

"But if a crystallization disease breaks out, there will definitely be signs of panic in the city, and there will be reports in the news." Eddie said aloud: "But I didn't see similar pictures in the newsstand, which means that the Hewei people did not become extinct because of this."

"Have you ever thought about a question? Not all races in this world are like humans. They are the same as they were before they died of natural causes a few hours later. Perhaps in their eyes, this kind of death is normal." Schiller proposed.

"Someone has imagined before that oxygen is poisonous, and all of us will be poisoned and die within a hundred years of inhaling oxygen. Perhaps this is the case with the Hewei people."

"When they were born, they coexisted with the energy of the Hewei crystal. There are crystal components in food, drinks, medicines, and daily necessities, and they will die without the radiation of the crystal."

"In their view, turning into crystal and powder is actually a natural death. Every Hewei person dies this way."

Everyone was silent for a while, and their thoughts can be roughly summarized in one sentence. It has always been like this, right?

Although there is a lot of evidence to prove that human life span is reasonable, and it is normal for most people to live less than a hundred years old as the human evolutionary path has developed to this point, there are still many people who will think about whether there are some necessary factors in life that greatly shorten people's life span.

"I have seen a photo." Bruce began to talk about the information he had obtained. He said, "It seems to be the funeral of the Hewei people. They will put their compatriots on the highest mountain, and their crystallized bodies will turn into powder and float into the sky."

Everyone was stunned and looked up at the sky at the same time.

Through the hole in the ceiling, you can still see the light coming through the broken glass in the hall, but there is more of a fine mist, and it is not difficult to imagine that the whole sky is covered with thick fog at this time.

"Is this a funeral ceremony of some special faith?" Eddie immediately responded. His many years of experience as a reporter made him ask: "To pray for the blessing and protection of God?"

"No, I'm afraid they have to do this." Bruce continued: "I saw a report about natural disasters. It seems that there has been a major disaster on Hewei Star, and it happens from time to time."

The white can showed a thoughtful expression, and then he said: "As far as I know, there is a special execution day on Hewei Star. All death row and serious criminals in the world will be executed on this day."

Everyone looked at him, not understanding why he mentioned this, but Bai Guan continued, "I saw the latest disaster relief files in the military district, and some of the photos were taken of how they executed death row prisoners."

"I didn't find the video record, but from the pictures, they used some kind of instrument to amplify the light of the Hewei crystal, and the executed prisoners crystallized at a very fast speed, and then turned into powder and floated into the sky."

"The way to save the disaster is to execute prisoners?" Stark said with a little surprise, and then he suddenly remembered and said, "I saw a photo of fog observation in a meteorological report before. In the photos taken over the next few days, the fog was getting lower and lower."

"What month and date is the last photo?" Bruce asked.

Stark raised a hand and drew the text displayed in the place that seemed to be marked with the year, month and day. Bruce also drew the same symbol, and then they found that the day with the lowest fog was the same day as the day the disaster began.

"I understand." Eddie suddenly said, "When the Hewei people die, the crystallized powder will float to the sky and the fog will rise. If the death toll is insufficient, the fog will fall."

"And this fog used to intercept the energy of the Hewei crystal is obviously fatal to the Hewei people. Once a certain area is invaded by the depressed fog, it will lead to the so-called catastrophe."

"And if the Hewei crystal, the Hewei people and the fog are all regarded as the remains of advanced alien civilizations, then the aliens first use the energy of the Hewei crystal to feed the Hewei people, and then use the fog to harvest the powder of the Hewei people. Isn't this a production process?"

Everyone was speechless for a moment.

"But if the other party has the ability to feed a planet and then harvest it, why not just turn the crystal into powder?" Eddie asked.

"Unless the Hewei people also carry another element in their bodies." Bruce sighed as if he had figured everything out, and said, "You can think of the entire planet as a large test tube. The Hewei crystal is one element, the Hewei people are another, and the thick fog is the catalyst."

"The Hewei crystal is a mineral owned by advanced civilizations, and the Hewei people are another element container created by advanced civilizations. The aliens put them on a planet, then oppressed them with thick fog and collected the powder that the dead Hewei people turned into."

"The Hewei crystal is an element, and the Hewei people have another element in their bodies. The two elements react in the Hewei people's bodies. When they die, the powder that their bodies turn into is another thing, which may be useful to advanced civilizations. The thick fog brings it to the aliens."

Stark suddenly grasped the key, and he said, "How long is the life span of the Hewei people?"

Batman sighed and said, "About four thousand days and nights."

After the voice fell, everyone was silent, because they knew that the above speculation might be correct.

According to their own feelings, the length of day and night on this planet is slightly longer than that on Earth, but it is about the same. Four thousand days and nights only last about ten years. This is obviously not the life span that humanoid carbon-based creatures can naturally evolve. Cats and dogs can live longer than this.

"It's like a fast-growing forest." Lord Batman's slightly low voice sounded: "Only by dying faster can resources be provided faster, and once resources are insufficient, the thick fog will also prompt them to kill more of their own kind."

"They don't know that they are just wheat." Eddie also said with a little sigh: "They still want to extend their life or go out to see, but there is no wider world outside, maybe only the walls of the test tube."

"But this effort is not meaningless after all." Stark said: "A generation has only a life span of ten years, but they still built a city and even developed a civilization that is more advanced than humans. Although it took millions of years, it is always good to have progress."

"The progress of the Hewei people may be greater than you think." Schiller suddenly said.

Everyone looked at him, but Schiller took out the three totem pole fragments he had collected.

"This race has never stopped exploring the sky. They have tried all kinds of methods to break through the restrictions of the fog, most of which failed, and some caused disasters."

"But in a certain accidental disaster, they found the ruins left by the ancient Hewei people. They mentioned in those ancient texts that the Hewei crystal had an original growth area."

The other people were stunned. Stark frowned and said, "You mean the ancestral ruins? Oh, I gave this name because I can't understand their text, but there is indeed such a place."

"The energy of the Hewei crystal will be exhausted." Schiller said: "The Hewei people have observed that the growth cycle of a crystal is about a hundred years. The crystal that loses energy will turn white and become powder, and new crystals will grow out of the ground."

"Since we all know that this crystal was dropped by an advanced civilization, then they must have a drop site, and the crystal came out from the ground, which means that the drop site is underground."

"Then there must be monitoring stations and regular inspection personnel." Bruce immediately said: "No matter how unimportant the project is, there must be a camera that can see the release situation. Judging from the frequency of major disasters, this is definitely a very important production site. They need that kind of powder very much, and the release site must be closely monitored."

"Does that mean we can contact that advanced civilization through the equipment at the release site?"

Just then, a portal opened around the few people, and Eddie reacted and said: "Oh, no, it doesn't matter what the plot is next, we can go back directly, the game just ended."

Schiller smiled and said: "Is it really over?"
