Chapter 1530: City and tentacles
The forest swallowed the city, the plants replaced the building, and the “spirit of all things” built a splendid civilization with flames and steel, but nature only took some time to get rid of these traces and even assimilate it into Part of nature.
The civilization on this planet has faded for many years. This can be seen from the ancient bleak ruins. Many ruins have not only been dumped, but also become the nests and territories of wild animals. Their builders have carefully designed them. These things are to show people's wisdom and strength, but now these results can only benefit the birds and beasts in the forest, and these later "tenants" obviously do not care what their nests are doing.
A few alien beasts with stiff short hairs and looks like wild boars ran to the distance in a panic. They disappeared into the depths of the jungle in the blink of an eye. Lily just released her own pressure, so I didn’t have much The animal of IQ is scared and the urine flows. It seems that Nolan’s judgment is correct: there is nothing threatening on this planet, and the beasts in the forest are not much worse than the tigers on the earth.
"The development of this civilization does not seem low. These ruins have been thousands of years old, but they are still not completely weathered. Their material technology is comparable to that of Tanagus, or higher." After the beast, Hao Ren and the data terminal went forward to look at an ancient heritage that was once occupied by the animals as a nest. It is a hemispherical metal shell that once seemed to be a large pressure vessel for storing dangerous liquids. Distorted and only one-half of the remaining, but the strength of its own has not changed much, except for the surface rust, it is still hard and stable, "a complex alloy, high temperature and corrosion resistance, strength is also very good. ”
Vivian used her fingers to rub the rough rust marks on the surface of the metal container: "How did they die?"
"Or maybe the eldest son, even if it is not the eldest son, there are countless reasons that can lead to the demise of this level of civilization," the data terminal said in a lack of emotional tone. "Civilization is very fragile, even if it can get into space, it is not strong." Diseases, wars, natural disasters, the resistance of most civilizations in the face of these things is not as strong as they think. It is impossible to analyze how the original civilization of this planet is extinct, but this machine is considered to be in the ruins of the city. There is definitely more information available there."
Lily looked up into the distance. Due to the cover of the jungle and the difference in terrain, the sight of the city ruins could not be seen directly from here, but her special vision could still capture something: occasionally visible among the trees. Steel, or cement pieces that are topped by giant trees to the air, are becoming more and more dense. This shows that they have actually reached the edge of the city's ruins. It is only because of forest erosion that this part of the ruins remains almost completely wiped out. .
"I didn't expect such a place in the dream plane," Hao Ren couldn't help but feel, "the mysterious star area blocked by the space break, the ecological planet hidden in the corner, and the ancient civilization that has perished... life Things are wonderful, they always feel rare and precious, but they always appear in various places."
"Compared with the feelings, I care more about the problem of being attacked in space," Vivian frowned. "The attack is obviously aimed at the purpose. It is directed at us...but before the drone has Our jumping point has been scanned back and forth for countless times. Is it absolutely safe to illuminate the route?"
When it comes to this matter, Hao Ren’s expression is also serious: “Yes, the drone has scanned the jumping point countless times, and until we jumped over, there are probes dropped by the drone in that area: The signals emitted by the probes are strong, but they have never been attacked."
If it is not confirmed in advance the safety of the route, Hao Ren will definitely not take a ship to rush to the unknown galaxies to commit crimes, but this time it is clear that the destination has been confirmed, and even specifically The probe and the drone were tested in various ways for a long time, and finally it was an accident.
Hao Ren can't help but think that this is really a trap, and it is a very clever trap, and it is highly probable that there is still someone behind this trap.
Or at least a complex and savvy decision mechanism is in control of this trap.
He touched his chin: "The storm in space showed obvious divine power characteristics later, so it relied on the power of the gods, and there are not many that can mobilize this power. There are only three parties in the dream plane: creation. The goddess and her guardian race are born with such abilities, and the gods and gods can achieve similar effects through rune techniques, and there is also a ... the goddess of destruction that has been corrupted and corrupted. As for the madness Lord, it doesn't have the IQ to lay out this trap."
"The probability of destroying the goddess is greater," Lily wondered. "The goddess of creation is a justice camp. It should not be a nuisance. The gods are actually being shot by both sides. They have never taken the initiative. Right, it is also the goddess of death, she has the ability to be motivated. And the landlord you think about it, the star map in Vivian's head are not always suspected? In my opinion, it is the pit left by the goddess of destruction, we Come here, it’s active in the pit..."
Hao Ren frowned, although Lily’s thoughts sounded reasonable, but he always felt a sense of disobedience, but he did not understand why this kind of violation came from, so he only Can shake his head: "Don't be busy with conclusions, wait until you understand the body of the divine storm."
In order to collect data on the local natural environment, Hao Ren and his team did not move fast. After collecting enough information, they only came out of the forest. When the first sunlight pierced the clouds and sprinkled on the earth, they stood. The edge of the ruins of the city in the middle of the forest.
It was bigger than expected. When it was passed through the air, Nolan had only had time to take a few angles that were not ideal. The scale of the ruins that can be seen was limited to the visible part of the air, but from the edge of the forest. When you look at it, the part of the ruin that is covered by the forest is clear. It should have been a highly developed big city in the past. Even after years of vicissitudes and disasters, its glory can still be seen. Hao Ren saw that there are many neatly arranged tall buildings in the city center, and some empty structures are in these buildings. Intertwined, and the center of the city is a giant building with a quadrangular pyramid shape, magnificent and unclear.
All the buildings have been severely damaged, and the signs of collapse have been seen everywhere in the city. Although they can still see the neatly arranged high-rise buildings, Hao Ren can also find that the collapsed buildings are far more than those still standing. a lot of. This civilization has superb material technology. The high-rise buildings they built are far more numerous than those built by the Earth. Just like the golden capital of Tanagus, a small part of these buildings can still stand after the end. Thousands of years or even 10,000 years, but even then, the power of nature is smashing these sturdy man-made materials: the sprawling forests make these sturdy steels twist, bend and collapse, and the giant trees from the interior of the building Growing up, piercing the branches of the building, the whole building seems to become a coat outside the trunk, and the dense canopy is inflated directly in the upper part of the building.
The bridge became the skeleton of the vine, and the road surface was broken and twisted together. This is the end of nature's counterattack after the end of civilization.
Hao Ren also saw two huge lakes in the ruins of the city. They should be caused by the collapse of the underground structure of the city. The subway system or something else could not bear the weight of the superstructure first, causing the city to collapse and collapse. These pits became a good place to store water. After the forest spread, the largest depression area became a lake and became a source of water for animals.
The morning has come, the world is getting brighter, the sound of birds and beasts has made the ruins and the forests become more and more lively, and a "pong" sound has also been added to this dawn sonata: Vivienne's little bat group Fly out of the jungle and fly to various directions in the city to find something that might be valuable.
The data terminal is raised to the air and ready to scan the energy response of the entire ruin group from the air: According to experience, this civilization will try to leave some traces of information when it is extinct, even if it is not intentional. Deep in the depths of urban ruins, there is a high probability that there will be prehistoric relics such as databases. Perhaps such databases can withstand the erosion of time, and even after thousands of years, the data terminal is looking for such things. .
While waiting for more information, Hao Ren climbed a nearby boulders and looked at the city and the scenery around the city from a height. Suddenly, a sense of disobedience kept his line of sight in a certain direction.
"The landlord" Nangong May shouts from below, "What are you looking at?"
"Let's take a look, I always feel that something is wrong there."
In May, he swayed his tail and climbed to the big rock three or two times. Then he raised his upper body and followed Hao Ren’s hand to the awning to look into the distance: "What?"
Taking advantage of the increased height of her tail, she seized the commanding heights much more than Hao Ren...
"The plants over there are very sparse. The forest seems to have been removed by anything, and you can't see any good ruins... even the ruins of a pile of high points can't be seen," Hao Ren pointed to the distance. "It always feels like it was bombed..."
"Looking like it is awkward," May swayed the tip of his tail. "So, is this civilization destroyed by war?"
"No, it's not just that," Hao Ren frowned. "Even if the city was destroyed by bombing, after so many years, the forest should have filled the bombed areas before..."
When he spoke halfway, he heard the sound of the data terminal suddenly sounding in his mind: "Partner! I see something here!"
Hao Ren led the May back to the ground and met Lily and Vivian. After a while, the data terminal also fell from the sky. The latter did not say anything, and directly projected an image taken at high altitude in front of the four people. .
I saw in the northwest direction of the city, a sudden mountain rises from the end of the forest and spreads along the edge of the forest. The mountain is covered with dark green in the black and brown, and its lines are not as sharp and angular as the ordinary mountains. It’s quite round and smooth...
line?
Hao Ren finally realized suddenly what was on the screen:
It was a tentacles, a huge tentacles that spread from the depths of the earth like mountains.
