From ship girl to machine god

But in that case, Qingniao was curious about whether a blue phone booth would suddenly appear if he sent a distress signal to the universe, and then come to save the people on the ship.

She is still very interested in the T-girl in the personality form of the blue phone booth. After all, she is technically a ship girl.

Who says a spaceship can't be a phone booth that's bigger on the inside than on the outside?

"The performance of this natural superconducting material is even more amazing than we expected. I suggest that we send a ship to carry the sample back to the earth first, tell the coalition government the good news, and also ask for help from the coalition government and let them send more More people come here!" While Jade Bird was still thinking about transforming his body, a physicist was holding a research report and said excitedly to Jade Bird.

After hearing his suggestion, Qingniao frowned slightly, used his spiritual power to look at him and asked, "You said you want to return to Earth early?"

"No, I mean we send another ship back! Aren't there other ships on the mother ship? We can consider sending one back so that the mother ship can stay here and turn to our side, with all our strength Developing this planet and mining these natural superconducting materials is so important to mankind!" Under the spiritual gaze of Blue Bird, this physicist showed sincerity and was indeed considering mankind and the earth.

It's just that the suggestion he made made Jade Bird somewhat disliked. Although there were indeed other ships on the mothership that could be used, those were Jade Bird's private property.

She can be lent to the investigation team for use, but the investigation team cannot take these ships as their own and use them as a matter of course.

Just when Qingniao felt unhappy and wanted to refuse the proposal, someone suddenly informed her that a Na'vi priest was visiting.

This made Qingniao have to calm down his mood, said that after discussing the matter again, he walked out of the temporary camp to meet the Na'vi people's sacrifice.

Chapter 71 Heading to the Soul Tree

"Chief Engineer Qing, what happened to the Na'vi people?" He and Qing Niao sent the Na'vi sacrifice out of the camp. Seeing that the Na'vi people were still stranded outside the camp, the political cadre asked Jing Niao curiously.

Because there was not enough brain-computer interface, and there was no translation of the Na'vi language, other members of the investigation team could only watch the blue bird quickly understand what the other party meant after making a neural connection with the Na'vi priest, and then Neural connections are disconnected.

However, as the main leaders of this branch of the investigation team, the political cadres are still very concerned about the exchanges with the Na'vi people.

After all, this is the first time in human history that communication has been established with an alien species, and everything they say, do, and do is related to the future relationship between the two races.

Although human technology is far superior to that of the Na'vi people, who are still primitive tribes, the political cadre is not the kind of lunatic who is full of desire for conquest. He hopes to live in peace with the Na'vi people.

Therefore, he was very concerned about the exchange between Blue Bird and Priest Neville just now.

"An invitation." Faced with the political cadre's questioning, Jade Bird shrugged and explained: "The Na'vi told Eva that I tamed that big guy, and now Eva wants to see me."

"Eva? That Holy Mother of the Na'vi people, a planet-level life on this planet?" The face of the political cadre suddenly became serious.

If the Na'vi people, who were still in the primitive tribe period, were only a small trouble to humans, the existence of a planet-level life was not that simple.

Humans have never communicated or come into contact with planetary life, and there is no experience. But the size of planetary life is here, even if Eva is just a large fungus according to Jade Bird and the analysis of scientists. Neural network, but no one knows how far it can go.

After all, even in their preliminary and cursory investigation, they found that almost all large animals on the planet can have neural connections, which means that they will be controlled by Eva.

If humans did come into conflict with Eva, it would most likely be against the entire planet.

And this is not good news for humans who want to develop this living planet.

"Yes, Eva communicates with the Na'vi through a plant called the Tree of Souls, which is regarded as a holy place by the Na'vi. When the Na'vi die, their souls will return there to Eva, who is also a Na'vi. The place to communicate with Eva." Qingniao briefly explained, and at the same time described the tree of soul in the most understandable way possible: "You can understand it as a mushroom growing on a mycelium network, but this Mushrooms you grow are neither edible nor look like mushrooms.”

Hearing this, the political cadre couldn't help but complain: "The mushrooms are okay, just the blue and thin shiitake mushrooms... Let's not talk about it. Chief Engineer Qing, are you going to see Eva?"

"That's for sure. If we want to make a difference on this planet, or if humans want to develop this planet in the future, contact and communication with Eva are inevitable." Qingniao actually feels deeply about the contact with Eva. I didn’t know much about it, but I still decided to meet this being who was shown in the movie to be more like the will of the planet.

However, the political cadres were a little worried about this and advised Qingniao: "Isn't this too risky? What if that Eva turns against you..."

"Then it's waiting for orbital bombing. Have you forgotten that we still have a mothership?" Qingniao looked at the political cadres, and the expression on his face seemed to be talking about what to eat tonight: "Although We come to communicate with the Na'vi people based on the principle of friendship and peace, but if someone fires the first shot, you must not forget the glorious tradition of our army, right?"

"Never fire the first shot first, and never let the other side fire the second shot!" The political cadre completed what Jade Bird said, and the expression on his face became more serious, and asked Jade Bird: "Then what do I want? Don’t you want everyone to prepare first? If something unexpected happens, we can evacuate.”

Qingniao shook his head at this and stopped the political cadres from thinking: "Prepare to evacuate in advance? It's not necessary. Although there are land beasts on this planet that can kill Tyrannosaurus rex, they are just beasts. Let them put the combat mecha Just have the power armor ready.

If they continue to be friendly, then these are construction machines, but if they are unfriendly, then these are still construction machines, but they will change from construction to demolition. "

After the blue bird finished speaking, he called his gryphon, rode on its back, and established a neural connection.

When the Na'vi people outside the camp saw the blue bird riding on the gryphon-winged beast, they also summoned the banshee-winged beast from their own tribe. Several riders rode on their respective mounts and gestured to the blue bird, telling her to follow them. .

The blue bird did not hesitate, and passed on his will to the gryphon-winged beast under him, letting it follow him, and being careful not to knock down these banshee-winged beasts.

Although this gryphon-winged beast has expressed its surrender, Blue Bird still doesn't trust it. If it can't restrain its wildness and nature and attacks these banshee-winged beasts tamed by the Na'vi people, the problem will be serious. That's serious.

However, feeling the dissatisfaction and small complaints conveyed by the gryphon, Qingniao couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly. This big guy's IQ seemed to be higher than she expected.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look down at the big orange-red guy, wondering if she should give this big guy some benefit or help.

After all, she is very satisfied with this large flying mount. It is very good for daily transportation. It is indeed very impressive when riding it, and its combat effectiveness is not weak.

The only problem is that the person riding it is a ship girl or a space ship girl. Whether flying or fighting, she doesn't seem to need this big guy to assist her.

Just kidding, even if the creatures on Pandora are strong enough to withstand human gunfire, they will never be able to withstand a direct hit from the main gun of a battleship that can burn glass. That is not the kind of weak thing in the movie plot, but can directly kill it with one shot. The main gun of the battleship wiped from the map by the Na'vi home tree.

Therefore, for this mount that he likes, if Qingniao wants it to follow him all the time, he has to make some necessary modifications to it.

"Go back to those biologists and ask if they can design a transformation plan for this big guy." Qingniao recalled the genetic editing technology he obtained in the cyberpunk world, and thought that maybe he could use some biochemical technology. .

While Blue Bird was thinking about this, the banshee-winged beast controlled by the Na'vi people had begun to land, and a large purple tree that looked very beautiful and dreamy came into her eyes.

Chapter 72 Eva arrives

As a very important part of the spiritual beliefs of the Na'vi people, the soul tree is somewhat similar to the ancestral graves of the Chinese in the society of the Na'vi people.

This does not mean that the Na'vi people will bury the bodies of the dead here, but that when they are dying, they will connect their consciousness to these soul trees so that their souls can be with Eva and be able to live in the future. Still by the side of the clan.

Although these Na'vi people have lost their bodies, their spirits, like the memories and echoes of the stars stored in Kala, can still be perceived by the living tribesmen.

Thinking of this, Qingniao couldn't help but have a very strong sense of déjà vu, that is, the Na'vi people really looked like the stars.

The protoss has braids, and the Na'vi people also have braids; the protoss has Kara as a spiritual network, and the Na'vi people also have Eva as a spiritual network; after the protoss dies, their thoughts and memories will be uploaded to Kara, and the Na'vi people's thoughts and memories will be uploaded to them after they die. It will be uploaded to the soul tree...

So the Na'vi are equivalent to the protoss who are still in the primitive tribal era?

In a sense, this inference is really not wrong. Except that the Na'vi people still have mouths to eat, and the protoss has evolved to the point where they don't need mouths, there really isn't much difference between the two. .

However, these random thoughts of Blue Bird did not last long. After controlling the gryphon-winged beast to land on the ground, Blue Bird followed the Na'vi priest and several other Na'vi hunters into the Tree of Souls.

From a botanical perspective, the Soul Tree does not look like a fungus plant, but more like the purple wisteria or weeping willow that Blue Bird has seen.

Things emitting purple light, unclear whether they were tentacles or branches, hung down. The pink-purple fluorescence enveloped the entire area, like a lush forest, and it looked truly beautiful.

Apart from being reminiscent of Slaanesh, there is nothing wrong with it.

When we reached the core area of ​​the Soul Tree, except for the Na'vi priests who led the way, other Na'vi people were already waiting here. They seemed to be performing some kind of pious prayer ceremony.

Qingniao was a little surprised by this. She had never seen this scene in the original movie. In the movie, when the female scientist died and the male protagonist finally changed their bodies, the Na'vi people gathered to pray under the soul tree, and that in the movie The blue bird appears to be more similar to the religious rituals used in Morde's eggs.

Or could this really call upon Eva's will?After all, it has never had any positive appearance in the movie, and there are no clear signs of manifestation between it and the Na'vi.

Even at the end of the movie, the mobilization of species that was seen as a deus ex machina was just the male protagonist uploading part of his thoughts and ideas. As for whether this is the reason why Eva drives all the creatures on the planet...

In Blue Bird's view, perhaps the fact that the war between the Na'vi and humans destroyed too many forests was the main reason for Eva's reaction.

After all, for a planet-level life, humans and Na'vi individuals are too small, so small that it is impossible for them to make a planet-level life react, or to allow a planet-level life to respond in time. Give a reaction.

The larger the body, the slower the reaction. For a planet-level life, even if it responds in time, from the perspective of humans or Na'vi, this is a very slow process.

This feeling is like an ant crawling on a person's hand. It is difficult for people to feel the ant, and even if they are bitten, they may not feel much.

Only if there are enough ants to attract people's attention, or if the formic acid secreted by ants makes humans feel pain, can people react in time to being bitten by ants.

The war between humans and the Na'vi in ​​the original movie was like formic acid, and the little bit of consciousness and memory uploaded by the male protagonist...

Blue Bird shook his head and cleared his mind as much as possible to stop his random thoughts. Then he followed the instructions of Priest Neville and connected his brain-computer interface to the branches of the Soul Tree.

She didn't feel anything at first, she just vaguely heard some sounds coming from the thoughts of the Na'vi people in the soul tree.

But soon, her spiritual power told her that a great will had arrived.

"Eva..." The only one who can be called a great will on this planet is Eva, whom the Na'vi people believe in.

Eva's consciousness responded, and at the same time passed a burst of thoughts to Qingniao: "..."

Because the body is too large, Eva's consciousness gives the blue bird a feeling that it is very slow, but just like a person can't stop a mountain, although Eva's consciousness moves a little slowly, it gives the blue bird a feeling of helplessness. The feeling of being defiant and unstoppable.

As for the information conveyed in Eva's will, even if Jade Bird's brain-computer interface has upgraded its bandwidth, Jade Bird himself uses a quantum computer to measure the computing power of his brain, but he is still a little dizzy and overwhelmed by the huge information. It took several minutes to complete the analysis and interpretation of the consciousness that Eva had just poured over her, which even made her brain-computer interface a little overheated.

However, the blue bird understood what Eva meant, and packed the information it wanted to know into a package, and also sent it through the neural connection.

Then came a long wait and a long silence.

If it weren't for the fact that Eva's will could still be sensed through spiritual energy, the blue bird would have thought it had left.

Fortunately, Eva did not keep the blue bird waiting for too long. After interpreting the information conveyed to it by the blue bird, Eva quickly replied with another message, but this time the amount of information was not that large.

Qingniao was in a daze for a moment, then he once again interpreted the message Eva had sent to him, and then responded.

But Eva's reaction this time was much faster and much simpler. After expressing its meaning to the blue bird, Eva's will left.

Priest Neville seemed to sense something. She had been kneeling on the ground when Eva's will came, and she stood up again and walked to the blue bird, with a hint of questioning in her eyes.

When Eva arrived just now, no Na'vi dared to connect to the Tree of Souls. To them, this was like the arrival of gods in religious beliefs, and their connection would be regarded as blasphemous to a great extent.

As for Qingniao, he was the person the gods wanted to see by name, so naturally he was different.

Just as a priest serving Eva, Priest Neville still wanted to know what the blue bird and Eva said, and why Eva wanted to see the blue bird.

Of course, the most important thing is what kind of will Eva conveyed to the blue bird, and how does this relate to the Na'vi people...

Chapter 73 Establishing friendly diplomatic relations

The Na'vi priest once again came to the temporary camp of the investigation team, but this time only she and a Na'vi hunter entered the human camp, and the other Na'vi people did not follow this time.

Because of the presence of the Na'vi people, Qingniao also asked other members of the investigation team to come outside. After letting everyone sit on the floor, she asked Han Duoduo, who also had a brain-computer interface, to connect to the Na'vi priest to act as an interpreter. Then she faced everyone He said: "I have communicated with Eva and obtained permission from it. Human beings can settle on this planet and develop it."

"Is this true? Eva really allows humans to settle on this planet?" The political cadres had expressions of surprise and joy on their faces. Although humans have enough force to forcefully occupy this planet, a peaceful solution is better than It's better to start a war.

After all, if we want to eliminate Eva, a planet-level life entrenched on the planet, there is a high probability that the entire planet will be burned to ashes.

Blue Bird nodded, and then explained: "Eva itself does not reject humans, on the contrary, it is very curious about us. Everything that happens on this planet is within its perception, and our arrival is not 'known' to it." within the range, so it wants to know more.

Because of this, Eva, who wants to know more, allows us to live on this planet and be protected by it.

However, this also has requirements, that is, we must respect the territorial sovereignty of the Na'vi people, the indigenous people on this planet, and not damage the ecological environment of this planet. "

Of course, the communication between Qingniao and Eva is more than that, and what she said is naturally a more understandable translation of "Xin Daya", but the general meaning is indeed the same.

Eva allows humans to settle on this planet and agrees with humans' development and construction of this planet, but humans must respect the existence of the Na'vi people and their due rights, and the two parties cannot conflict.

At least, humans cannot take the initiative to provoke the Na'vi.

As for the Na'vi taking the initiative to attack humans, humans can also take up arms to defend their homes.

Of course, as a price for restraining humans, Eva also promised that she would restrain the Na'vi people, prevent them from becoming hostile to humans, and provide necessary help.
