How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 127 Passive

"start up!"

An alien in military uniform dropped the switch, and the whistling sound of the impeller rotating at high speed could be heard around.

Streams of infrasound and ultrasonic waves were released, and the sound waves spread deep underground at a speed of three kilometers per second.

But that is the initial speed. Due to the complex and diverse underground environment, whether it is lava or various types of rock formations, the speed of sound waves will not be maintained at 3 kilometers per second, so there will be a speed range that fluctuates up and down.

The aliens stared nervously at the display, waiting for the feedback from the sound waves.

The information was quickly fed back to the machine, and the underground scene was presented in front of Commander Allen and other colonial powers.

It is a spider web-like structure, vertically penetrating through layers of strata from the depths of the ground, and at the same time, it also has many branches, which jointly build a huge and intricate underground world.

"Hiss, is it true..."

Commander Allen first thought of what Marvin said before, and suddenly felt his scalp tingling, and then gave the order.

"'Boom' is ready!"

"No, Commander, wait a minute, something is wrong!"

It was Marvin's assistant who stopped Allen. If it was normal, with the assistant's courage, it would be impossible to do such a thing, but now it is not normal. A calm and frenzied state.

The assistant adjusted the parameters urgently, and a larger underground picture was displayed. The bottom of the underground network was a huge lava pool.

"This underground network is a hollow structure. Because the bottom is connected with lava, the pressure accumulated in the underground pipeline is very high, and the temperature is also very high."

"How tall?" Allen asked.

"I did a rough calculation. It's about 1400 degrees. There is a deviation, but it's not too big. This temperature exceeds the limit of carbon-based organisms, so..."

"So we're safe?"

"It can be understood in this way."

This answer made Allen and others feel relieved. Except for some spider web-like stratum structures that looked strange, there was no threat of monsters as expected. Perhaps it was this stratum structure that prevented them from coming from underground. threat.

Allen thought about it and asked.

"How did this stratigraphic structure form?"

"Commander, this should be the lava channel of the volcano. When the underground pressure accumulates too much, the weak parts in the stratum may be torn open to form a channel like this. When the lava channel is close enough to the surface, it will form our Familiar volcanic eruptions."

"So that's how it is."

Allen showed a sudden look.

This is the end of the aliens' first underground detection, but this is not the last time. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens. The underground is always an undefended gap. an' what?

After that, the colony will conduct regular underground detection operations every five days and nights.

So, is Huo Gu's "stealing learning" action declared bankrupt? the answer is negative.

The rhizomes are gone, but those eyes still exist in the hidden place. Huo Gu modified the design, and the eyes can be nourished by breathing, so as to obtain a small amount of moisture in the atmosphere and combine it with the substances near the hidden area.

In fact, the aliens had previously thought that it was a lava channel, and the intricate network of channels was the structure Hogu deliberately left before the rhizome was evacuated.

On the one hand, it can mislead the aliens. As the saying goes, it is dark under the lights. Hogu uses this psychology to better hide the "eyes" in those colonies.

Secondly, these channels are deliberately created as predicted, because of the internal pressure and the lava pool at the bottom, the temperature will be very high, and this temperature will affect the surface, but the impact will not be great, and the surface temperature will be three percent higher than before. .

Aliens will not notice this change in temperature, but the 'eyes' will be affected. This slight increase in temperature will not cause the air to dry out, but instead can properly increase the air humidity, creating a more suitable environment for the 'eyes'. living environment.

The transmission of information is completely handed over to the life field for communication, and its concealment is far better than that of radio. The only disadvantage is that there are too many transfers, and the delay of information is very serious.

Perpetuity They are studying hard, and Hogu is not idle. While monitoring the situation in the alien colony, Hogu establishes contact with the organisms in the wreckage of the star port, allowing them to search every corner of the wreckage in order to find That is, the location information on the home star of the alien.

Huo Gu knew how passive their current situation was. The enemy knew their location, but they didn't know the enemy's location, and they didn't even know when they were organizing a huge army.

I am in the light, the enemy is in the dark!

Huogu has now basically determined that the enemy's parent star is in this planetary system, because by virtue of the analysis of the wreckage of the starport, Huogu can basically deduce the technological limit of the aliens.

The science and technology of the aliens is indeed a distance higher than that of the human civilization on the earth. After all, they have been able to carry out large-scale deep space expeditions, and the people on the earth are still sending satellites to the sky, and the people living in the International Space Station are kittens Two or three national research institutes.

However, it seems that their spaceflight technology still hasn’t made a qualitative breakthrough, at least they still use propellants, and they use primitive chemical fuels as propellants just like Hogu.

In addition, Huogu did not find anything similar to the hibernation cabin in the wreckage of the star port. He found excrement measured in tons in a certain cabin. Through the weight of the excrement, Huogu deduced the number of aliens in reverse, and then The conclusion drawn from the comparison of the living space-the aliens did not hibernate at all during the journey, and they were eating, drinking and scattering throughout the journey.

The counterargument turns out to be that aliens have very short voyages, at least on a planetary scale.

But the problem now is that Huo Gu couldn't find the location of the enemy's parent star. Through the observation of organisms in outer space, Huo Gu has successively determined the seven planets that exist in the environment of the planetary system, but without exception, there are no The desolate world of creatures.

Are they hiding it?

Huogu can only think of this possibility, it has already launched a life form named 'Explorer' to the discovered planets, but due to the long distance between the planets, it will take at least a few years to know specific situation.

During this period of time, what Huogu can do is to accumulate technology as much as possible, and on the current basis, complete a qualitative leap in overall strength.

But things are not always smooth sailing, a piece of information from the life form of the universe made Hogu no longer calm.

"Will, a large number of cluster individuals appear near the edge of the star."
