interstellar tomb raider

Chapter 108 Deep Well
There were more than a dozen drops of blue gold particles in front of him, about the size of a small fingernail. The old wolf picked up one of them and rubbed it violently in his hand. He nodded and said, "The purity is very high. After refining this thing again, it will become fine gold."

Yi Shuihan stood with his shoulders folded, wondering: "Where did Tai Sui go? Why are only these dozen or so blue golds left behind." The mental power spread around and detected its location after a while.

The two hurried over. It turned out that it was wriggling around a large tank on the bottom floor of the prison with a fat body more than one meter high. I didn't expect this thing to grow to such a size in one day, covering more than ten square meters of ground. It's not enough to take in this thing, and now it's probably looking for water sources.

Water is not a problem for Skull Star. It can be extracted from the red ocean with a purification machine. This tank is 20 meters high and nearly a thousand square meters. There are four water outlets dripping with trickles, and a part protrudes from Tai Sui. Wriggling slime directly covers one of the spouts, trying to suck up the liquid.

It's no problem if you want to drink water, let go of the water outlet a little, and a stream of water pours down, directly onto Tai Sui's body.

Suddenly, countless viscous tentacles stretched out from the edge of Tai Sui and formed a slightly higher disc-shaped body with a depression in the middle.

"This thing is so smart, is it really just a bunch of fungi?" Looking at it curiously, the old wolf was full of joy.

Yi Shuihan said: "The origin of the large-scale mucosal bacteria is unknown, and they are mysterious life forms. Whoever gets such a ball will become rich. This is really like a cornucopia!"

The two walked around a few times, and got some blue gold particles, about a hundred or so, and some other metals, mainly iron.Tai Sui absorbs trace elements in the soil similar to nutrients and plants.Finally, with a simple valuation, these blue gold can be exchanged for [-] blue gold points. This is only the beginning stage, and it should be fruitful in the future.

It is obviously not enough to support a planet to build a foundation. The Skull Star is a barren land. If you don’t rob houses, there is really no future for development. Right now, there are no talents, and resources are scarce. You can only take one step at a time. If you plan to It would be great to use this place as a transfer station for galaxy smugglers. Those smugglers are so capable, as long as they have funds at hand, it is possible to create a fleet of ultra-luxury lineups of their own.

Tai Sui eats it slowly, there is no need to worry about management, as long as someone comes over to check it regularly, and the twelve cautious Spike players including Fat Dragon and Black Star should not have any problems if they are assigned this task.

At first, the title of Langya was only given by these young people themselves, but now it has changed. The old wolf attaches great importance to these young people and entrusts them with important responsibilities. Find an opportunity to have a good conversation with Dad.

Pick the most obedient prisoners and assemble 50 people, and transfer them to the underground base of the ring mountain in batches. Of course, the entrance is not where Yi Shuihan and Lao Lang entered, but at the bottom of a slope ten kilometers away. Don't even think about discovering this way if anyone operates in it.

The prisoners arrived at the base and began to repair the excavating machines thousands of years ago, as well as some old-fashioned robots. The left-behind soldiers were very excited about the discovery of this base, and they all said that the boss gave everyone a surprise.
The underground base Zhongfeng Toad began to come out to move around, chasing the footsteps of Xunfeng, collecting wind resources and converting them into electric energy for storage.

The underground city began to expand and build around the base. Of course, there are not so many residents now, and it is useless to build it. It is just to expand the space and make a staged preparation for accepting waves of immigrants in the future.

The red ants retreated very cleanly. After investigating these creatures, they were severely hit, and finally retreated to the main nest near the red ocean. The number is almost ten to nine. It may not be possible to do it in more than ten years if they want to prosper again. Arrived.

Everything on the planet is running as planned, and the next step is to explore the location of the wormhole. This task is very difficult.

The freezer has been made, it is in the shape of a 50-meter hemisphere, with several layers of protective armor, it can easily withstand the pressure of hundreds of kilometers underground. It is good for the cloned princess to be frozen quickly, and maybe there will be a chance to wake her up in the future , and Qiang En was hit hard. Just imagine that he has slowly lost hope after three years in prison. How can he bear the reality revealed by Yuna's arrival?Maybe he decided to freeze on impulse, the road was chosen by himself, and he happened to be able to have a companion with Yuna, so he went.

When Yuna walked into the barn door, her shoulders were shaking and she seemed to be crying from behind.Qiang En, with dull eyes, lay down on his own seat unceremoniously, closed his eyes and prepared to bear the cold.

There were not many people seeing off, only Fate and Yi Shuihan, and with the sigh of the big man, the door slowly lowered, it was more like attending a funeral, this freezer looks like a tomb!
Yi Shuihan, who pursues comprehensive affairs, left a holographic image explanation in this "tomb", introducing the two people's life experiences clearly. If future generations find them, don't be rash enough to unfreeze them without knowing the situation. They still have one day to wake up, this is already the last blessing.

Yuna held a glass ball tightly in her hand, and carefully hid a strand of hair in it. This was the only memory she had secretly kept with Yi Shuihan. When she saw Qiang En, her brain couldn't control it. It was that figure To save her from the pain, it was only later that the man carried her back to the room. This hair was found by the bed. It was black and shiny, and it reminded people of those black eyes, which were extremely clear and contained wisdom. It was deeply engraved in her heart. Although she still didn't know what love was, her instinct prompted Princess Clone to leave something as a souvenir, and she had this glass bead in her hand.

After freezing, add enough energy spars, and take the freezer to the polar region of the Skull Star. The natural conditions there are even worse, and the cold wind is faster than a knife. I believe it can keep the two of them quiet for thousands of years. Only after digging 2000 meters down did the freezer be installed.

The Guangshu Pyramid ascended into the air, looking directly for the wormhole, which the old wolf had already explained in advance.

The space is still quiet, and the stars in the distance exude fiery red bright colors, making the pyramid of light appear more brilliant. The space of the star system is very wide. When will the entrance of a space wormhole be found?There is too little information. It would be much easier to find the hole if you know when Robin will escape and know the route of his spaceship.

There are two more people in the control room, Feilong and Heixing. One of these two guys took the initiative to find the second uncle to talk to the old man, while the other was directly kicked by the old wolf, ordering them not to go anywhere in the future, just go Follow Yi Shuihan.

The tomb thieves can now be officially changed into a tomb robber gang. If Bai Xiaoqing, who is hardworking in the old lair of Wu Xiuxing, is brought in, there will be five humans, Xiao Liu and Zixu, two alien races. The lineup is strong, especially Xiao Liu. , can guess the clues of the ancient hidden imperial tombs most quickly. The suspected tomb of Xuanyuan’s dead fat man needs to be dug, and other luxurious cemeteries also need to be cleaned. The speed of exploration will naturally increase when there are more people. See how the harvest is.

"Xiao Liu, have you found the most effective wormhole detection method? We need to search in a large area." Yi Shuihan asked, pointing his finger at the table.It's not a regular action, it only shows up when you're worried.

The beautiful scar on his body showed signs of contraction in the past few days, and the superficial skin healed in one place, but the thing remained in the body like shrapnel. Although it had stopped robbing the cells of energy from the outside, it could not be repelled by all means.On the surface, it looks like there are some odd-shaped stripes on the skin that can automatically transmit golden light. In the dark, even wearing clothes will be noticed, which will bring some inconvenience to future actions. Only wearing that strange ghost coat can cover it up. its bright.

It took a while for Xiao Liu to respond: "I finally asked me to find a feasible method. It is really not easy. The database is too big. I have to find it bit by bit, and I have to calculate the feasibility. It made everyone wait for a long time."

Feilong scraped the edge of the newly equipped red iron knife with his thumb, grinned and said loudly: "Tell me how to find the hole, I can't wait to go out with my second uncle for a while, the knife is for drinking blood, lonely Lying in my arms, I can even feel its sorrow."

This fat guy is also a living treasure. Black Star patted his head. There was really nothing he could do about it. His father told him to follow him because he was afraid that Fat Dragon would cause trouble. The two had complementary personalities, and they had been partners for many years. Not to mention that there is no restraint, and once you leave the small circle of the Skeleton Star Wolf Army, don't you turn around and make a fuss?I have been thinking about shopping with others, not being a butcher is really a waste of a good talent.

Xiao Liuluo listed a lot of data on the light screen, and explained: "In response to a wave of interstellar immigration 500 years ago, a scientist once did an interesting experiment. He originally wanted to use space wormholes to Do an energy blowout to study more effective development and expansion of the hole. Although the experiment failed, there are many things to learn from. This scientist launched some metal liquid foam with light particles attached to the hole within tens of millions of square kilometers, and then used the material to gather The light made a tour performance in the range of the metal foam, hoping to lead those foams into the hole, but because of the existence of antimatter in the wormhole, the negative quality is like a backlight lens, which makes the hole seem to be shrinking, and the light that gathers the matter fails to penetrate , on the contrary, it spreads out like a small firework. Although this experiment is expensive, there is a lot of iron oxide in the red ocean of Skull Star, which can make thousands of tons of metal liquid foam. In the final analysis, it still needs energy as a backing. If If you want to find the hole as quickly as possible, you have to take this method."

It seems that a few people took off early and had to go back to make preparations. Xiao Liu is not omnipotent. It is not easy to find the method so quickly. The historical experimental data to be read is too huge.

When the Guangshu Pyramid returned to the Skull Star, the old wolf had been notified in advance, and hurriedly sent half of the wind toad to accumulate energy to prepare for the production of liquid metal foam. The more the better, maybe he could find other wormholes.

The discovery of a wormhole is not that simple. It requires countless detection spacecraft to search for it. Some people make a lot of money by doing this. The government stipulates that the discovery of a wormhole can be rewarded according to the geographical location. The most expensive reward is directly To make a young man who sailed by patchwork spaceships become a billionaire in one fell swoop, it can be seen that there are huge profits to be chased.

Some people describe the space between wormholes as the wrinkles in the universe that have not yet been smoothed out. There is a widely spread saying, "Wrinkles in the Milky Way give some people wealth, but all interstellar civilizations develop by relying on these wrinkles." It can be seen that the role of wormholes is not trivial. , the speed of light is really nothing in such a transition between the two places.

Yi Shuihan had to take out half of the energy crystals. The Skeleton Star cannot have no energy reserves, nor can it rely entirely on the wind toad. The production process of the metal liquid foam has been simplified by Xiaoliu. A drop of liquid can expand to dozens of cubic meters , the key lies in the loading of light particles, which consumes a lot of energy.

The Sinking Blade and Moon God's hands were placed in Xiao Liu's body, and they also needed energy recovery. If it weren't for digging so many polyspars on Wuxiu Star, I'm afraid they would be stretched now.

It took seven days for the liquid metal to be produced. It is conservatively estimated that it can cover hundreds of millions of cubic kilometers. If the distribution of them is made thinner, it may expand the space by three times. It is not enough for the range beyond the star system and stars. , only by luck, it is impossible to continue to produce metal expansion fluid on the ground.

After coming to space again, the workload is heavy. First spread out some bubbles in the most likely position, and then release matter to gather light and start to check the reaction. Unfortunately, there is no sign of wormholes.

In three days, the Pyramid of Light has almost flown over half of the Skeleton Galaxy. The metal liquid is about to bottom out, and there is no shadow of the wormhole. Everyone's enthusiasm at the beginning has cooled down, and they even suspect that due to the millennium, it has become unstable at the beginning. The wormhole entrance has disappeared.

Xiaoliu is the busiest one. It needs to detect the foam reaction and calculate a lot of data. It works tirelessly, and it has set an example for everyone.

Another day later, just when everyone didn't have much hope, there was finally a little reaction in the outer range of the left and right distances from the Skull Star, and everyone paid attention to it all at once, and headed towards this area.

After arriving at the location, the enthusiasm soared and fell to the bottom. I found the wormhole, but unfortunately the hole was too small. Robin could pass through it in a single spaceship a thousand years ago, but the pyramid is not big enough to get in and out. How about this? To do interstellar jumping?

Xiaoliu's canopy is extremely eye-catching. There is always a solution to any problem. If someone can develop a wormhole, it is natural to use the hole in front of him as a basis to see if he can expand it.

Everyone nervously waited for the results. They all knew that Xiao Liu was performing very complex calculations. The master brain of the spaceship had been upgraded and further integrated with the energy tree. Even a human wise man who had reached the ninth rank would be amazed at Xiao Liu's ability.

Finally, the crown of the tree dimmed, and Xiao Liu's crisp voice came: "I haven't found an effective method. The funds for developing wormholes are very huge, and the technology collected is not complete, so I can't plan a feasible plan."

Feilong was the first to lament: "Grandma, it's great that daddy blew up the original wormhole, but it's a pity that we are also trapped here. It will take a few years to sail to other planets?"

"I haven't finished my words yet. Human methods can't solve the problem. Don't forget that I'm a treant. We can completely open the entrance with our own strength. According to calculations, only 49 ice species can achieve the goal, and as I The energy of the brothers continues to increase and can further consolidate and stabilize the wormhole."

After hearing this, Yi Shuihan asked: "The tree-man brothers won't be in any danger, after all, the antimatter around the wormhole is very difficult to deal with. Can they handle it?"

Xiao Liu replied affirmatively: "Boss, don't worry, we tree people are one of the oldest beings in the galaxy, and we know more about wormholes than humans. Even if the memory inherited from mother is not complete, according to my calculations It is still very easy to open this small wormhole. If it is full of energy, it will help the treants establish this gathering camp, and it is more than enough to help the skeleton star guard the gate."

Everyone was happy, Yi Shuihan acted quickly, even if the ice species could save people, but sacrificing one life to save one life was not worth the loss!It's best to be able to watch them grow.

The body moves as fast as lightning, passing by quickly, leaving 49 ice seeds behind.

The brilliance flickered, and small saplings appeared. Due to the thinness of hydroxide ions in the universe, their growth was slow for a while, but with Xiao Liu, the elder brother, here, the situation was different.The Guangshu Pyramid released golden light to protect the tree people, and then all the liquid water that could be used on the spaceship was released by Xiao Liu, and it was frozen and shot forward in the low temperature environment of the universe.

There is no way to rank so many tree people at once, and it continues directly to the small 55.It's still Xiaoliu who has a way. He hijacked a comet to make a temporary resting place for his brothers. There is ice on the comet, which is the most needed thing right now.As for the energy that stimulates the growth of the treant, Xiao Liu, the elder brother, takes care of everything. Anyway, Yi Shuihan later agreed to use the energy spar to help him replenish it.

After eating and drinking enough, the tree people knew the work they needed to do now, and connected them in a circle. At this time, each of them had grown to a height of several hundred meters, and the roots were even more intertwined. Small wormholes It is really difficult to find the existence of the entrance without observing it through special means.

Yi Shuihan could clearly sense a wave of rotating energy gradually forming and pressing towards the entrance of the cave, a circle of violet brilliance burst out, followed by red and blue brilliance appearing alternately, the tree people quickly calmed down the energy ripples spreading around, and in the blink of an eye Has returned to normal.

This scene happened three times before it subsided. The entrance of the wormhole was expanded to a diameter of a kilometer, and the treants stretched out ice strips to wrap tightly around each other. From a distance, it looked like a beautiful crystal crown surrounded by space. among.

Because the wormhole is pulled, it seems that the space range is very deep and dark, as if it is a cosmic deep well covered by a circle of ice crystals, which looks so different.

The tree people are really very creative. They simply processed and carved the used comet. A skull is suspended within the gravitational range of the tree people. When you come out of the wormhole, you can see this iconic object on the side. Clearly engraved with seven large characters, "Welcome to Skull Star."
