High Above

The hall is semicircular and has two floors. The second floor is supported by two strong metal brackets, forming a platform overlooking all the screens in the entire hall.

Under the platform, there is a wide and bright work area. There are many areas flickering on the semi-circular screen without dead ends. Although most of the screens are already black, in general, you can vaguely understand the situation of this control area back then. grand occasion.

There are eight entrances and exits in the entire hall, and Ian is a little stunned. The crystal channel he walked is the one that leads directly to the underground river transportation system, and it is used to quickly travel to and from each ecological park.

But in the center of the hall, there is a rock statue that is incompatible with the overall style of the hall, and even looks very rough.

A statue of a giant with a bulging body, as if swollen.

"This is……"

Ian frowned, he looked at the statue carefully, and then said in an uncertain tone: "Radiation protection suit?"

It is indeed a humanoid statue wearing a radiation protection suit. Although the details are poor, he is very familiar with the style of the radiation protection suit because he often wears it in the inspection and maintenance before.

The simple handmade statues in anti-radiation suits stood quietly in the extremely advanced silver central control hall, looking extremely mysterious and simple, and Ian couldn't figure out why for a while.

He could only walk forward and carefully observe his surroundings.

And when you look at it this way, you can see many details.

On the four walls of the main hall, there are many faint inscription scratches - not so much scratches, but rather the remnants of some kind of oil pen left on the metal wall, and the metal wall itself did not leave any scars.

Dense brush marks and totems are all over the hall, except for those screens, even the ground is covered with these marks.

"Stop."

Although neither he nor Andor entered the hall, Ian still stopped the action of the pirate captain.

He bent down, carefully observed the traces on the wall and floor, and let the silver chip record.

"Through the unification of the furnace model, the combination sequence of the third power module can be compatible with the two furnace core structures of 'fire' and 'flying light', but it cannot replace the combination sequence of 'tide' and 'crazy'. If necessary, the front and rear The connection of any two in the combination provides an opportunity to repair one side, and a wide-area spiritual energy stabilizer is required to stabilize the different wavelengths of natural spiritual energy and avoid causing field whistle changes."

"Administrator-elders can perform remote maintenance operations on the base and the ecological park at the same time through the unified information platform, but they cannot remotely operate on forbidden areas such as 'power source area' and 'biological laboratory', but administrators can use the 'core management The platform' is paired with 'remote projection equipment' for remote maintenance."

"Non-administrator-elder users can apply for maintenance qualifications, enter the maintenance equipment area, enter the restricted area through special exits, and perform maintenance work for 4 to 8 hours. If you need to extend the time, please continue to apply for qualifications."

Reading the meaning of these traces, Ian was at a loss at first, and then he understood: "This is a key maintenance manual? And it is written so straightforwardly that ordinary people can understand it..."

"This is a study manual for future generations!?"

Straightening up, Ian looked around the hall in front of him again.

But this time, he saw five completely mummified corpses on the five seats in front of the screen.

And at this moment, another wave of hallucinations struck, causing a series of light and video clips to flash in the boy's eyes.

Five figures of different sizes, both male and female, are gathering under the statue, having a heated discussion.

[There is no other way, in order to hedge, this is our only means now! 】The tallest man's voice was like a bell, and his tone was calm: 【I am the first one, if I fail, everyone please learn from my sacrifice! 】

[Yes, this is the only possibility to defeat that guy] A woman calmly said: [There is a consciousness uploading device in the laboratory, and it has been destroyed, but he doesn't know that the administrator's seat in the central control room itself needs to be replaced. My own consciousness is projected to the base control platform - as long as it is slightly modified, every seat here is an uploader]

[A person's thinking and memory are one share. Even if he has the first-mover advantage, we can completely knock him apart by numbers] A man who looked a little gloomy said slowly, there was a huge scar on the top of his head, it seemed Having undergone brain surgery: [He has not started to produce echoes on a large scale. Although there are quantities, the quality is still not condensed]

[Indeed] Another woman with a fiery tone nodded and said: [Everyone is human, although he is the strongest among us, can he still be stronger than all of us combined? ! 】

And the oldest one left sighed, he turned his head worriedly, and looked at the portal of the control room: 【The question is, what will happen to the insect nest after it is defeated? That thing has begun to expand wildly, and the junior has lost the brain-attached plug-in, so it is impossible to use the base tool to clear it...]

[Even if it is cleared, can the brain slug transformed into that by him really be completely wiped out? That is enough to be the standard of military biological weapons in the past, even if it is driving armor...they may not be able to operate it]

There was a moment of silence in the meeting room, but soon the voice sounded again.

The tall man cheered up: [It's okay, there are a few smart ones among them who can learn the operation manual without brains]

[It’s just that the population is not enough, and the base’s ecology and knowledge inheritance cannot be maintained anyway...they will definitely decline] The calm woman has some regrets: [It is our failure to inherit the glory of Terra...it is our dereliction of duty]

[I've thought about it a long time ago] The gloomy man's face was even uglier, and finally he squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying: [I asked Bona to start the clone warehouse, which should be able to replenish part of the population, although the gene pool has been polluted , but at most it is only a physical distortion and does not affect intelligence]

[When necessary, clones can also be used as cannon fodder. Although it is against human rights, there is no other way now... It is better to sacrifice clones than normal people]

[It's so dirty, we are probably the last generation of Terrans in the alliance, but we still can't maintain the glory] The hot woman sighed: [Leave this aside, there is no spiritual network with a brain, only the records in the genes and the verbal network are left. Fragments of knowledge passed down by word of mouth, what will our descendants look like...]

【us……】

The old man looked around at the younger generation in front of him. Although his heart was extremely heavy, he finally smiled: [We have no choice]

【We can only believe】

to believe...

believe in future.

future……

Five phantoms of the ancient past dissipated in front of Ian, and finally condensed into the bones before his eyes.

Everything was just for a moment, the boy slowly raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

Now, it has arrived at the future in their mouth.
