Chapter 636: After the end of the day

Chapter 636: After the end of the day

Hao Ren drove his own official car, which could not be turned into Optimus Prime, on this desolate and strange planet, watching the huge, old, old and depressing The steel remains are swiftly passing by the window.他们 They are now passing by a giant engine that is extinguished. This engine feels like a weird extinct volcano with a mountain-like shape and a black lacquered outer shell. Large pipes and alloy frames can be seen, and some old and mottled traces are distributed on the high "mountain peaks", which is probably the rust that occurs when the planet's atmosphere is abundant.

Lily has been looking out the window, she sighed: "The machine is still alive, but people are dead... Who created these things?"

"There are no signs of higher life yet, only some microbes are barely surviving in the extreme environment deep underground." Hao Ren looked down at the control panel of the car. The place where the mileage of the oil meter should be displayed is actually suspended. A virtual screen, the top of which is a complex radar map and a communication interface with the giant turtle rock. "The humans on this planet may have died... of course, they may be hiding in some shelters. And we haven't found it yet."

"The second possibility is not high," Vivian shook her head, "intuition."

"You said these engines are running automatically?" Hao Ren turned to look at Vivian.

Vivian is still shaking her head: "I don't understand the engine, I just feel that this place is haunting the atmosphere of death... The blood family is very sensitive to this atmosphere."

The pedestrian did not stay near the flameout engine, but after a few images around the circle, he continued to hurry, and the huge thruster that was so majestic was quickly left behind. The people continue to move forward. After passing through more huge pipelines and steel relics, they encountered some other sporadic buildings. It looks like a sentry tower and a bunker - these things can't help but think of a military base. It seems that before the huge engines were completed, there was a war on this planet.

Only all the traces have been covered by thick ice and snow. Only these sporadic relics in the highlands can still reveal the ice, unless it is stopped for a detailed scan, it is difficult to know what the thick solid carbon dioxide and what is hidden under the ordinary ice.

The car continued to move forward, and the surrounding area began to warm up. The blue and white flames that rushed into the sky and the giant engine under the flames were clearly visible near the horizon. The thermal radiation of the plasma flame dissipates a certain range of cold, allowing carbon dioxide to return to the atmosphere. It even melts a range of ordinary ice and snow, and the normal soil and stones can finally be seen on the road.

From time to time outside the window, there was a sound of screaming. It was the sound of the wind blowing the sand and the shell of the car: the operation of the giant engine caused the nearby dry ice and other substances to return to the atmosphere, and these heated and expanded gases were cooled and spread into the ice after being lifted up and spread to the distance, and The lower atmosphere is re-rolled near the engine, so sublimation-expansion-landing-cooling is so repeated, rolling up a never-ending edge wind, and the engine around it is the only place on the planet where the atmosphere exists.

The engines are so large that they even produce phenomena like natural weather during operation. However, the scope of these phenomena is quite limited, with a circle of "wind circles" around each engine. After crossing this circular wind belt, the front again became dead.

After moving on for a while. Hao Ren, they also accidentally discovered the remains of the city.

The city was built on a high ground, and because of the proximity to a working engine, the heat of the plasma flame melted the nearby snow and ice, and the city was not covered by white. Hao Ren drove into the city's remains at the request of the Nangong brother and sister. Seeing the well-ordered high-rise buildings everywhere, although the style is very different from that on the earth, it can still be realized from the exquisite planning and technological design of buildings that there has been a strong civilization.

And not the same as those dark engines. There used to be a splendid color in the city - the exterior walls of the buildings are meticulously decorated, and the streets can see colorful patterns like advertising. Roof, square. The road...all these places are not rigid. Hao Ren drove through the middle of a twin building. He saw that the two buildings were shaped like a pair of symmetrical plant shoots, and the buildings were connected by delicate and elegant curved bridges.

Buildings of this size can be seen everywhere in the city's ruins. The styles are varied, some are elegant, some are as rough as those of huge engines, and some even don't even see whether they are used to live or simply decorate. Lily opened her mouth and looked at the old buildings. I imagined that there was a sunny day. This alien city greets the busy day with radiant brilliance. The buildings are covered with brilliance and the roads are faint and idle. There may be an agile civil aircraft in the crowd, and there may be a lot of civil aircraft in the building... However, these imaginations are fading away, and her eyes are still dead.

The empty buildings stood silently in the darkness, silently opposite the distant stars, and greeted the uninvited guests with a cold face.

In the background of the urban complex, the plasma beam of the sky divides the entire night sky into two.

"There is no life reaction," Hao Ren looked at the radar on the car. "And the city has been out of waste for a long time, I guess at least 10,000 years."

Hao Ren’s statement is not a random speculation. He now has more or less knowledge and judgment in this area. He feels that the city should be the product of the engine before it is completed, because once those engines start, the planet will be out of orbit into space, and the aborigines of this planet obviously have no ability to maintain their entire atmosphere while leaving the sun. Heating - so they must abandon the city on the surface after the engine is built and transfer to an underground shelter or hibernation facility.

And if the engine didn't start 10,000 years ago, it would be even simpler: the inhabitants of the city must have died in the catastrophe.

Vivian whispered a question: "Why do you think they have to transform their planet into this?"

"Obviously it is to escape," Hao Ren looked at the huge plasma flame in the distance. "And I guess most of them are the eldest son... or the disaster caused by those brains. In addition to the disaster, what else can make a race Are their mother stars pushing the wandering road?"

Lily glared at Hao Ren's seat back, turned her eyes and thought for a while, and shook her head: "Obviously their escape has gone wrong."

Vivian was surprised by the flash of the singer's singularity: "How do you know?"

"Because this planet only departed a hundred years ago," Lily’s ear trembled. "The wrath was taken a hundred years ago by the Nangong couple and transmitted to the planet. At that time, the starry sky in its memory was still there. I saw it before the pile of sun embers. This shows that this planet was still not in the solar system one hundred years ago. The catastrophe of this universe was basically 10,000 years ago... so the escape plan of this planet Obviously it failed. What do you really think about this?"

Viviante is sincere: "I just didn't expect you to think of it."

"I'm not stupid." Lily rolled her eyes and lay down on the seat and ignored the bat.

Hao Ren smiled and looked at the daily bickering of these two families: "Lily said yes, since this planet is going to flee, it should be 10,000 years ago. So it must be a problem before the original solar system is stranded. For 10,000 years, it was not until the Nangong couple were brought here that they suddenly started... The problem is probably one hundred years ago."

The team spent some time in the city, but eventually disappointed. There are no complicated life reactions here, and there are no traces of human life in the short term. Although the entire city is enveloped in a relatively warm environment and can find liquid water and moss-like basic plants, it seems that the parents of the Nangong brothers and sisters did not live here.

However, the mood of the Nangong brothers and sisters is still a little uplifting: the environment in this city is obviously enough for a sea monster and a hunter to survive, although it is not comfortable, but the intensity of the day is ok. There are more than one "livable" areas like this, and each of the engines that are spurting flames may have living conditions. Since there is no such thing in the city, they can continue to find them.

Until the entire planet is searched again.

I heard that there is a reader who bought a g-shirt in the Internet and was pitned by 20,000. This world is really dangerous. ) (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
