Chapter 493 Red Flame Civilization
Humans can only judge the use of various facilities in the base by their appearance, whether they are living places or working places, or breeding grounds for some other creatures, plant cultivation bases, etc.
From this point of view, it seems that the Chiyan civilization was not in a hurry when it left.
In fact, what humans don’t know is that the reason why the Chiyan civilization was able to move the base so cleanly was all because their previous commander had foresight and it was the commander who asked them to prepare for evacuation in advance.
"These guys didn't leave anything!" Yue Yuan sighed, while switching the detection screens one by one.
As time went by, the exploration of the Chiyan civilization was coming to an end, but no valuable information was found.
If humans were still a second-level civilization, they might still be interested in the base materials of the Chiyan civilization, but in the eyes of humans now, these materials are worthless.
Just when Yue Yuan was not interested in the situation of the three planetary bases, the voice of the person in charge of communication sounded in the command center: "General Yue, information from the Third Fleet."
"Turn around!"
After saying that, Yue Yuan stood up from his seat, controlled the magnetic switch on his clothes through the brain chip, and walked slowly to the porthole.
The Third Fleet was still in the orbit of the thirteenth planet, so the information sent was naturally not real-time communication, but a paragraph and some pictures and video information.
As the communication personnel operated, Bu Guiyu's avatar soon appeared on the virtual screen. He saluted very formally, and then said: "General Yue, the battlefield cleaning has been completed, and we found these things."
After Bu Guiyu on the screen said this, some pictures appeared on the split screen next to his avatar.
Sparks flashed everywhere in the picture, and red iron juice, steel fragments, broken wire tubes and other debris were floating everywhere. Many things could no longer be recognized in their original appearance.
Yue Yuan glanced and recognized that this was the situation inside the damaged warship. The round crystal in the picture that was still intact should be a screen-like creation.
This should be the picture taken by the robot cleaning the warship.
Sure enough, the next moment, he saw a small robot passing through the picture with a tail flame. It stretched out its mechanical arm and fumbled in a pile of rubbish for a while, and then grabbed an iron lump.
This thing is as big as a bucket of water, but it is not cylindrical, but oval like an egg. It is made of some kind of alloy, with obvious retractable mechanical structure on the surface, and looks like an iron egg.
Well, it is indeed an iron lump, at least that was Yue Yuan's first impression, but Bu Guiyu's words refreshed his cognition.
"This is the space suit of the individual life of the interstellar trading market. The two protruding retractable structures at the slightly smaller round head are its gripping parts, and the four below are... well, four legs. Look, General Yue, this is the form of the individual life of the interstellar trading market.
We have dissected it, and it is a life form similar to marine molluscs. Although their skin is smooth, their toughness is very good, so good that ordinary knives can't cut it, just like rubber."
The First Fleet has just discovered the so-called interstellar trading market, which is actually called the Red Flame Civilization. The information has not yet been synchronized to the Third Fleet far away on the thirteenth planet, so Bu Guiyu's words still call it the interstellar trading market.
As Bu Guiyu spoke, the video also turned to the scene of a human robot cutting open the iron egg and taking out an alien who was obviously dead from it.
The creature in the iron lump is very small, only about 30 centimeters long, looks round and soft, with four legs and two hands. The legs are obvious, but the hands have no obvious features such as fingers. It looks more like an octopus with a group of tiny suction cups.
If we add some tentacles to it, it will probably become the image of the octopus Cthulhu in people's impression. Yue Yuan, who saw this image, finally confirmed that the passage discovered before was the entrance and exit passage for the life individuals of the Red Flame Civilization.
At this time, Bu Guiyu continued: "We analyzed their space suit life support system and found that although they are soft-bodied creatures, they are not aquatic. It's just that their living environment is relatively humid, well. It should be said that it is humid and hot. Their normal living temperature is about 60 to 70 degrees Celsius.
From our human perspective, they are oviparous life forms. Some scattered information shows that their offspring are hatched from eggs, but we did not find any of their eggs in the wreckage of the battleship.
Biologists believe that they should have some mothers who specialize in laying eggs, because although we found more than one individual life in the wreckage of the battleship, we judged that they were different male and female individuals. The reason is that they have obvious discoveries in their body structure. The physiological structure is symmetrical with concave and convex sides.
But what surprised us is that after scanning, dissection, and analysis of its basic cell structure and genes, we did not find that either of them has obvious ability to reproduce offspring. Uh. Maybe their reproduction method is different from what we know.
Some experts speculate that the male and female individuals on these warships do not have the ability to reproduce offspring. They should have some mothers who specialize in reproduction. Of course, maybe we guessed wrong, but no matter what, we still don’t know how they reproduce offspring, let alone how many new individuals they give birth to each time. "
After reading the information sent by Bu Guiyu, the First Fleet finally had a better understanding of the Chiyan civilization, at least knowing their life form.
Immediately, everyone on the Tianqin also expressed a few words of emotion.
"I didn't expect them to be so small."
"Isn't it? If I hadn't seen the way it was pulled out of the space suit with my own eyes, I would have thought it was their pet!"
"They seem to think that we humans look like kobolds. I wonder what they thought when they saw the 2.5-meter-tall kobolds."
"What you are saying is that they are also a dignified third-level civilization, and they are also a civilization that has the courage to pretend to be an interstellar trading market. They must have seen a lot of other alien life, and no matter how they behave, they cannot show that they have not seen it. Their appearance in the past is at best a bit surprising, just like the way we see their life forms now.”
While these people were discussing curiously, the personnel responsible for watching the planet base detection suddenly said excitedly: "Everyone, new discovery, new discovery!"
Everyone turned around and saw that this person's personal screen was displaying a strange cavity structure. There were various hemispherical devices inside. The cavity was so densely packed that it numbered at least a hundred thousand. More than one, these devices are connected to many pipes and look like devices that store something.
The person who can be responsible for detecting intelligence is naturally not just a mouthpiece. He must have extremely strong professional knowledge. In fact, this is also the case. The Tianqin starts as an expert at the lowest level.
The person in charge shouted excitedly and then continued: "Based on the information from the step commander, I think this thing is most likely a breeding base for individuals of the Red Flame civilization. And these hemispherical devices , judging from its size, it should be a place to place their offspring in the 'egg' state. We have found more than one such breeding base. It seems that the Chiyan Civilization adopts artificial breeding, er, industrialized breeding of offspring. In this way, they can have It makes sense why so many living beings fly battleships.”
In fact, humans can also set up a breeding base for offspring in this way, because after advancing to the third level civilization, artificial embryo technology has been realized, but the ethical and moral hurdles have not been passed. The most important thing is that after strong artificial intelligence is put into use and the battleship model is determined, the human fleet does not need so many soldiers. Therefore, the new government has not implemented this birth model.
