Chapter 236
A few seconds later, Earth Era’s liaison received a reply.
"Report sir, the other party agrees!"
So, another shuttle sailed out of the mothership, and this space with a length of more than 6 meters and a width of 4 meters After the cabin maintained a consistent speed, the robotic arm successfully docked, and jumped into the two soldiers and a related safety expert...
Li Junkang and Guo Qiang swallowed together, almost nervous. , They saw a dozen Pangolin-like creatures densely packed in the capsule, all wearing spacesuits, staring at them with dark eyes.
"Don't be nervous! They should be more nervous than you." A voice came from the headphones, "Just keep the necessary modesty."
Major Guo licked his hair dry Lips, recalling his mission, said something in the translator on his body: "Welcome friends of Gliese Civilization, go to our mothership..."
"Please go here …Land our small spaceship for a security check."
Inside the mothership a hundred kilometers away, Zhang Yuan stared at the big screen carefully, almost without blinking his eyes. These Pangolin-like creatures have black eyes and are very short in stature, with the longest being no more than 1.2 meters.
"Hello friends from human civilization! I am the leader of this diplomatic team, you can call me Gan Yaduo." One of the leaders of Gliese also said in the headset One sentence.
After being processed by the translator, it is not difficult to understand.
Several soldiers inspected the entire space capsule in great detail, and no suspicious points occurred. All the talents let out a long sigh of relief.
"Bring them to the mothership!"
At this point, the first contact between mankind and alien civilization—the third type of contact is officially launched!
Zhang Yuan was very excited. One side was full of vigilance, and the other side was full of curiosity.
Human impossible will never intersect with alien civilization. This Gliese civilization, if possible, is undoubtedly a very good contact and communication object.
Its scientific and technological strength seems to be slightly weaker than that of human beings, at least on the surface... The new civilization has most of the scientific and technological heritage of Earth civilization. If there is enough time, the development potential is far greater What it looks like so far.
For the contact of this time, the entire human civilization has been preparing for a long time, even completely transforming a small area in Earth Era. These lifeforms are anaerobic creatures, but they also have a small amount of breathing. Role.
High concentrations of oxygen are highly toxic to them, so they must prepare a mixture of gases with the same composition as the local planet's atmosphere, and almost the same atmospheric pressure, air humidity, etc... To create a completely sterile environment, these organisms in the province were killed by human bacteria and viruses.
It's not so much a diplomat, it's a group of uncles!
But people had to do this. Wan accidentally killed a Pangolin, but it was a diplomatic accident, and it was no different from the mud in the crotch.
While sitting on the rail car, these Gliese people looked all around curiously, but obviously, these creatures all restrained their curiosity, at least not glanced around, or everywhere Fumble.
After that, they came to their living quarters.
"...The generous and hospitable human civilization has to praise your exquisiteness. Living here, as if returning to our home planet, is quite comfortable." After a while, this man named Gan Yaduo The Gliese people in China sent a message, "Even the gravity environment is very good. We are sincerely grateful."
The temporary living area has been transformed into a sewer pipe. The strange state of abduction. In order to adapt to their eyes, all the lights are relatively dim.
Every Gliese’s room is very small, less than two square meters like a cardboard box. As a result, these guys feel quite comfortable, they like such a cramped environment.
Seeing the surrounding companions all felt a little funny, Captain Zhao couldn’t help coughing, "Don’t laugh. This also shows that due to the difference in living environments, the difference between the thinking forms of the two civilizations is actually very large. …Fortunately, you can still communicate. Hey, ask for common ground while reserving differences."
Zhang Yuan said: "We should let them rest for a while. They should be very tired after traveling thousands of miles on a rocket. Rockets are not. Space elevators have to withstand huge accelerations and are not so comfortable."
"Anyway, this kind of negotiation cannot be completed in a day or two."
Zhao Qingfeng agreed: "It should be like this. , Let them rest for a while... However, we can study their own food and some biological specimens they carry."
A group of diplomats and biologists rushed over enthusiastically, Handover with the other party. Then I got a pencil box-sized storage box, which stores some alien plants and Insect specimens.
These things are so important. The biologist Ichiro Yamamoto almost trembles with his fingers. He put this storage box in a special safe very carefully. Excited to excited, you still have to be careful, the biological pollution caused by things can be very troublesome.
Extraterrestrial life must be in a biosafety Level 4 laboratory, which is a P4 laboratory, to be able to study with confidence.
Immediately afterwards, a human diplomat said quickly: "Thank you very much for the biological specimens you brought! You can rest in this living area as much as you want, and you will consider things about the diplomatic conference after the rest."
After the handover, this group of Gliese people really started to allocate rooms, eat, and rest very comfortably, and some were curiously looking at the small amount of equipment configured on the spaceship... including Some video installations, and some art albums and other recreational entertainment products.
A few hours later, these guys seemed to be really tired, one by one, like a tortoise hibernating, lazily fell asleep...
They fell asleep as soon as they fell asleep...
More than ten days!
This can make all human beings anxious. After the patience is consumed day by day, Zhang Yuan thinks that letting the other party rest is simply a bad idea that can no longer be horrible!
Later, after some explanations by biologists, everyone faintly speculated that this was the normal routine of the Gliese people!
People simply didn't do it deliberately, nor did they slack off, but just as it is.
"Because the energy brought by anaerobic respiration is too little, they need long-term sleep to store energy... This is the first time we have encountered this unique biological phenomenon."
p>Yamamoto Ichiro was in a mess of excitement, blushing and explained: "We Dissection some Insect specimens and found that there is a special energy organ in these Insects, and we named it the energy nucleus. Anyway, it is the main energy source. Organs."
"When organisms are dormant, they can slowly digest the food in the body. The main component of food is glucose, which is not much different from ours. Their unique biological enzymes can anaerobic The energy released by breathing is stored in the energy nucleus and released quickly when you are awake... They have a very high utilization rate of food, but due to anaerobic respiration, the digestion rate is also very slow."
"So, due to the difference in respiration, the creatures here generally sleep for a long time and grow very slowly, even Insect is no exception. At the same time, this breathing method can also achieve a higher lifespan! "
"I estimate that these Gliese people can easily survive for five-six hundred years. With the aid of technology, there is nothing to survive for one or two thousand years at the worst......"
Survive for one or two thousand years!
This speculation makes people a little sluggish. They are creatures that live longer than tortoises. Although they need to sleep for a long time and sleep for more than ten days...
Professor Yamamoto hurriedly continued: "But it can also be speculated that their reproductive ability is not Not high. Breeding an individual is really exhausting...Of course, it's just my speculation. The probability of egg birth is mostly."
