Earth Era

Wei Feng agreed with Ye Luo's proposal. So a robot equipped with various scanning and fluoroscopy equipment came over and began to analyze the alien device. But soon, Ye Luo said: "Captain, this device uses some anti-see-through materials, and our see-through equipment cannot scan its internal structure."

This conclusion was probably what Wei Feng expected, so Wei Feng said: "Can you analyze the materials it is made of?"

Ye Luo paused for a moment, and then named several materials one after another. Although Wei Feng is not an expert in materials science, he still has some superficial knowledge of materials science. Hearing the names of these materials mentioned by Ye Luo, he couldn't help but feel very surprised: "Ye Luo, you mean, all the materials used to make this alien device...our human civilization has the ability to build it?"

"Yes..." Ye Luo said, "For example, here, this alien device uses special titanium alloy steel, which has sufficient hardness and toughness and can withstand the extremely low temperatures in space. It is not much different in nature from the shell material of our Xinghai spacecraft. The only difference is that the performance of this titanium alloy steel is better than the material we use, one to two grades higher than our material, but ...This is still within the scope of our knowledge, and we can analyze it and understand it without hindrance."

This made Wei Feng even more surprised. Wei Feng originally believed that an ancient civilization that existed 500 to 600 million years ago, came from a distant outer galaxy and fought a huge war in the solar system, its technology should be much more advanced than human civilization, but Ye Luo came to the conclusion that although its level of technology is higher than that of humans, the level is limited.

Wei Feng patted his head, and then said: "Based on material science, is its technological level at the same level as the fragment we obtained before? Can we be sure that the two were made by the same civilization? ?”

Ye Luo replied: "The technological content is of the same level. I am 80% sure that this alien device and the fragment we obtained before were made by the same civilization."

"If this is the case... then the problem that troubled us before has reappeared." Wei Feng murmured, "How did a civilization with a technological level only slightly higher than ours reach the solar system across the long interstellar time and space? ?”

Wei Feng only thought about this issue for a while and then gave up. Because it was obviously impossible for Wei Feng to get a real answer before obtaining enough information.

Wei Feng once again set his sights on this alien device. After learning that the technological content of this alien device is not much higher than that of humans. After it was still within the scope that human civilization could understand and analyze, Wei Feng discovered many things.

More than twenty years of training before departure. This gave Wei Feng a very deep understanding of mechanical structures. Under this situation, Wei Feng saw many familiar things from this alien device. For example, that small, dark thing installed under a large component looks like a converter, and the larger component above it looks like a battery, and that part, It looks like a temperature control device...

After having these understandings. Wei Feng made a somewhat bold decision.

"I plan to disassemble it according to my understanding, completely disassemble it to analyze the role of each component that makes up it and its working mechanism." Wei Feng said, "Of course, during this process, you have to keep Download enough video recordings to ensure that I can reverse engineer my disassembly process so that we can put it back together again if needed."

"Okay Captain, please rest assured about this." Ye Luo replied immediately.

So Wei Feng first observed carefully. Then he took a tool and carefully removed a section of pipe. The push-cart robot next to it immediately stepped forward, and Wei Feng placed the pipe on top of it. He also ordered: "First conduct some material science and usage analysis on it, and then encapsulate it. And save it with the number."

After removing the pipe, Wei Feng focused on what seemed to be a converter and planned to remove it too. But I encountered certain difficulties when dismantling this thing. Wei Feng discovered that this suspected converter could not be removed without removing the other device first. So Wei Feng changed his target again, first dismantled another item, and also numbered it and saved it.

During the disassembly process, Wei Feng discovered that the splicing method used in this equipment did not seem to be significantly different from that of human civilization. There are also places where physical fixing methods are used, such as various types of screws. Some are welded, and there are various buckles, etc. Wei Feng also established a disassembly principle. That is, it will only be disassembled when it is determined that it has the ability to be restored, otherwise it will be saved.

Wei Feng always had a strange feeling in his heart. Although intellectually, Wei Feng has been telling himself that what he is facing is an unknown device made by an unknown civilization. It may contain many things that human civilization has never been exposed to or understood, but in reality While working, Wei Feng always had a feeling, which was like when he was a child in an orphanage and secretly dismantled the director's projector.

The similarity between these two situations is that although Wei Feng does not understand the purpose of each component and its working mechanism, Wei Feng knows that these things are understandable to him. They are not mysterious and mysterious, and are more complicated than human beings. A creation of a super civilization whose civilization is thousands or even tens of thousands of years ahead of technology.

The disassembly work continued, and as the work progressed, Wei Feng also made more discoveries. Familiar parts are constantly being dismantled, such as something suspected to be a signal receiving and transmitting device, something suspected to be a data storage device, something suspected to be a central processing unit...

The most important thing is this thing that looks like a hibernation cabin. That's right, it was the hibernation cabin where Wei Feng had slept for hundreds of years. Its size is very different from the hibernating cabin used by Wei Feng. The hibernating cabin used by Wei Feng is about two meters long and seventy centimeters wide. However, this suspected hibernating cabin here is only less than one meter. The length of five and the width are less than fifty centimeters.

It's like a mini version of the hibernation chamber used by Wei Feng.

Weifeng came to this conclusion through many other components installed around this device. Because there are many familiar things around it, such as this one, which seems to be a thermostat, another one that seems to be a nutrient solution circulation and purification device, and another one that seems to be a physiological state monitoring device.

After discovering this closed and sealed device that was suspected of being a hibernation cabin, Wei Feng stopped his disassembly work. Wei Feng originally thought that this was just a device that operated on its own, but now... Could it be... that there are alien life forms inside it?

The most important thing is that when I first discovered it more than two hundred years ago, this device was still running and even had the ability to actively send out signals. So is this hibernation cabin also in operation? If it is running, I have separated the nut and body parts, causing it to lose energy supply and stop running. Now I have disassembled it to pieces. Does this mean... I may have inadvertently disassembled it? Killed an alien in hibernation? !

Although this equipment is estimated to be hundreds of millions of years old, who can guarantee that the hibernating cabin they created cannot allow them to hibernate for hundreds of millions of years and still be alive when technology surpasses human civilization?

This inference made Wei Feng feel a little uneasy. Wei Feng carefully observed the equipment again, and felt even more uncertain in his heart. Because the more Wei Feng observed, the more he felt that this equipment was like a hibernation cabin.

"Actually, you don't have to be confused about this." Ye Luo said, "Whether it is a hibernation device or not, and whether there is any alien life in a hibernating state inside... we will know as long as we open it."

"But..." Wei Feng said hesitantly, "I have observed that this device is internally sealed and has lost its energy supply. We cannot open it. If we force it open, it may damage its structure."

Ye Luo said: "You don't have to worry about this. Just like our hibernation cabin, it can be opened from the inside by command, and it can be disassembled from the outside as long as you are careful not to damage its structure. Recovered.”

Wei Feng thought for a while and finally made up his mind. After another careful observation and identifying several key connection points based on Ye Luo's suggestions, Wei Feng finally stretched his tool towards it.

It took Wei Feng two hours to turn on the device. If Wei Feng's work was correct, at this moment, as long as the hoisting robot is used to open the hibernation hatch cover, Wei Feng can see its internal structure.

The lifting robot started working, and the cover slowly left the equipment. After the cover was completely removed, Wei Feng immediately saw its internal structure. After just one glance, Wei Feng's expression immediately changed, and his body fell backward uncontrollably, even squatting on the ground.

It took a few minutes for Wei Feng to regain his composure, and the expression on his face turned into a helpless smile.

"Ye Luo." Wei Feng said with a wry smile, "It turns out that we really accidentally killed an alien." (To be continued ~^~)
