The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The lizard civilization is an extremely contradictory civilization. Although this civilization has a very high level of technology, and before humans appeared on the earth, they were already among the ranks of cosmic civilizations, but their ideas and ideas are still at a very high level. In the primitive state, the entire civilization is composed of large and small tribes, and each tribe has a very unique tribal idea. These tribes are completely equal in status and have no affiliation with each other. There are even many tribes. Everyone is a feud.

Like the lizardman civilization tribe that often has conflicts with the Earth Federation, the core idea of ​​the tribe is aggression and expansion. Although this tribe is not the strongest among the many lizardman tribes, it can definitely rank among the top few, because they Relying on the power of one tribe alone, it has fought back and forth with the entire human civilization of the Earth Federation, and has not lost ground for thousands of years.

Because there are too many tribes of lizardman civilization, and the situation of each tribe is different, the Earth Federation has spent thousands of years, but has only collected relevant information on less than a thousand lizardman tribes. Fortunately, the current ship The lizardfolk tribe of the former owner of the broodship is among those tribal information that has been collected.

This tribe of lizardmen is called the tribe of those who face the light. The core idea of ​​this tribe is to embrace light, so this tribe has an extraordinary level in the field of energy technology. It is said that they can use 100% of the energy of stars.

In addition, this tribe has high biological technology, because in their view, life comes from light, and there is no life without light.

Judging from the energy and biotechnology mastered by the Lightwarder tribe, this tribe can almost be regarded as an advanced civilization, but because of the drag from other tribes of the Lizardman civilization, this tribe can still only be regarded as a medium civilization.

However, unlike other tribes of the Lizardmen, this Tribe of the Lightwarders does not completely belong to the Lizardmen civilization, because this tribe has long been a subordinate civilization of a higher civilization.

This advanced civilization that controls the Tribe of the Lightward is an energy life civilization. The civilized race is a race called the Lightman. It is said that this lightman race was born in a certain star. Civilization information is also hidden by the Supreme Council of the universe, and will not be known by any medium or other civilizations. Only publicly available information such as names will be disseminated.

Obviously, this brood spaceship should belong to the Lightman civilization, and the Lightward Lizardmen tribe is responsible for the daily maintenance and biological cultivation of this spaceship.

Among the data called out from the main control program database, you can often see titles that have the meaning of the owner. In some low-level data exchange records, the content of these low-level data exchange records is very boring and simple, that is, some without any special meaning. experimental data.

However, some of the project titles in these experimental data are very interesting. Judging from these project titles, this brood spaceship seems to be created for light people to cultivate offspring.

There is a generally accepted law of the universe in the universe. This law is that when the civilization level reaches a high level or the living body evolves to an Omega-level high-level living body, the race of the civilization and the living body will have great problems in reproducing offspring, and The lifespan of this race will also be gradually weakened due to some unknown reasons, and in the end, it will even completely lose the ability to bear offspring.

Omega-level advanced lifeforms are fine. Generally, lifeforms that have evolved to this level have either reproduced enough offspring, or do not need to reproduce offspring, while the races of advanced civilizations have a headache. They need to invest a lot of energy, Leo doesn't know what will happen in the end if he spends time and money to study his own reproduction, but he knows that advanced civilizations are constantly changing, and many advanced civilizations have disappeared in the long river of time in the universe. There is no reason for the disappearance. people know.

However, Leo is also a little puzzled, because such things as reproduction of offspring should not appear in the civilization of energy life forms such as light human civilization. Energy life forms reproduce through energy seeds, and come from the suspended incubator here. Look, as far as species are concerned, the life cultivated in it should be carbon-based life with flesh and blood, or other life forms with physical bodies. In short, they cannot be energy life forms. These incubators do not have the function of cultivating energy life forms. .

It's a pity that this incubator didn't have any more useful data. After repeated searches, nothing was missed, so the data cable was disconnected.

"What did you find?" Filoria saw Leo's operation. Although she didn't understand what the flashing phantoms were, she was sure that Leo should be looking for clues related to this place. .

"This is a breeding spaceship..." Leo didn't hide anything, and told all the information he knew about this brood spaceship.

Filoria didn't care about what Leo said at the beginning, because in her restored blood memory, there was a memory related to her mother. She felt that except for those inhuman aliens who had all moved to the New World, the old continent There should be no one in the world who can understand mother better than her.

However, she soon discovered that there was something wrong with what Leo said, because she had never heard of those things, such as light human civilization, lizard civilization, brood spaceship, etc. This made her think that Leo was talking nonsense now, but her instinct felt that what Leo said was very important, so she listened carefully with conflicting feelings, and also Keep asking questions to answer her doubts because she didn't understand.

After about half an hour or so, Leo finally fully narrated all the information about the brood spaceship he knew, and Filoria was also constantly asking and answering, and barely understood what Leo said.

However, even if she understands it, Filoria still has a lot of doubts in her heart. For example, she still doesn't understand the meaning of special terms such as advanced civilization of the universe, supreme council of the universe, energy life form, etc., but she is too embarrassed to continue. After asking, she could only suppress these doubts in her heart temporarily, and then, as if exchanging information, she also narrated the information she knew about the Brood Spaceship, that is, the mother in her mouth.

In contrast, when Filoria was narrating in Leo, she was often interrupted midway because of doubts. Leo was listening quietly from the beginning to the end, so Filoria finished speaking quickly, and it took a lot of money. The time is also much shorter.

This made Filoria feel a little embarrassed, so she deliberately asked Leo: "Did you understand what I said? If you don't understand, you can ask, and I will definitely answer."

Leo shook his head and said, "No need, you made it very clear, there is nothing difficult to understand."

As Leo said, he did fully understand what Filoria said.

The reason why Filoria calls this place her mother and knows some information here is because she, or more correctly, the source of her blood was born here. According to her, after humans entered this world, the White Deer, He also came to this world, and then he entered this brood spaceship, put some blood into some of the incubators, started the cultivation program of these incubators, and finally these incubators cultivated different lives, Philo The source of Leah's blood lies in it.

"You just said that the white deer used the incubator here to cultivate a lot of life?" Leo asked confirming after thinking about it for a while.

"Yes." Filoria nodded and said, "There are seventeen men and eighteen women in total, which means I have thirty-four brothers and sisters."

"So many?" Leo was stunned for a moment, and then asked again: "What happened after you were born? Did you leave here and go your separate ways?"

Filoria shook her head and said: "How is this possible? Although we are different from normal babies when we are born, we have wisdom and thoughts, but we are still children. The snowfield is too dangerous for us. We I lived here until I was an adult, and then I left." She said with emotion: "It's just that I didn't expect that after leaving, we haven't come back for so many years." At this time, she seemed to think of something, and said : "Come with me, I will take you to a place."

As her words fell, she was seen to be as agile as a deer, jumping from the edge of the platform, landing on an incubator, and then constantly stirring back and forth between the incubators, moving towards the bottom of the hollow.

Seeing this situation, Leo followed closely without saying anything.

The two quickly descended to the middle of the hollow. At this time, Filoria skillfully jumped onto a suspended incubator on the edge, and then jumped towards the dark wall on one side, followed by Leo. Without thinking too much, he jumped hard and rushed over.

Just when they were about to hit the wall, they all saw a small entrance and exit on the wall and a platform extending outward.

The two immediately adjusted their postures, fell towards the platform, and stood firmly on the small platform.

This platform is not very big, Leo and Filoria can barely stand, and the entrance and exit behind the platform is also not very big, even Leo needs to bow his head to enter, while Filoria needs to lie on the ground to enter , and because of the huge antlers, she couldn't raise her head yet.

Looking at the entrance in front of her, which was much smaller than she remembered, Filoria scratched her head in embarrassment, and said, "I forgot, we were only teenagers back then, and we were not very big, so the entrance and exit in my memory are very tall. .”

Aside from embarrassment, Filoria didn't think too much, just bent down, lay down on the ground, crawled inside, and said while crawling: "The entrance is a bit short, but it's much more spacious inside, me and those of me Brothers and sisters lived in it until..."

Filoria didn't finish her sentence, but Leo could feel that she seemed a little depressed.

The entrance and exit passages were not very long, and the two quickly passed through this passage, which was somewhat low for them, and entered a large space.

I saw that the shape of this space is almost exactly the same as the previous one, but the whole shape is much smaller, about less than 30 meters high. There are also incubators here, but these incubators are not suspended in the air, but inlaid On the wall, there is a road in front of the incubator from bottom to top, spiraling around, linking these incubators, which makes these incubators look more like rooms.

The whole space is not completely dark, there is actually a big tree in the center of the space, the big tree is full of fruits, and each fruit is emitting a faint white light, these white lights are fused together to form a A soft light illuminates the space.

It is not uncommon to see a big tree in the brood spaceship. After all, the brood has the function of simulating the environment and assisting life. It is not difficult for a big tree to grow in this closed environment.

However, what surprised Leo was that he had seen this big tree before, and he had transported the original saplings to the experimental planet.

The obvious luminous fruit characteristics of this big tree, as well as the unique vein texture of the branches and leaves of the big tree, made Leo immediately remember that this big tree should be a special kind of colonial plant cultivated by the Federal Academy of Sciences commissioned by the Earth Federal Colonial Bureau , this kind of plant is transformed by rearranging and transforming different plant genes. It does not need any basic conditions for plant growth. You can throw this plant anywhere, even in a vacuum, and it can grow. Come, because it can absorb the energy and matter of mayflies around it, supply what it needs for growth, and can also produce enough oxygen for biological survival.

In addition, the fruit of this plant can be illuminated, and after it matures, it can also be used as food to satisfy hunger. The branches and leaves of the tree can emit some special energy waves. If you live around this tree for a long time, your body can Under the influence of the energy wave, some positive changes occur, such as the body becomes stronger and stronger without exercise.

At the beginning, the Earth Federation had tested the ability of this plant on a planet that was not suitable for human habitation. Before encountering an extreme storm, this tree fully adapted to that planet, and with her branches and leaves covering the area, An oxygen field that can supply the oxygen needed for human breathing is formed.

It is precisely because of the importance of this plant to the colonization of alien planets that the Earth Federation at that time sent several elite teams to escort this plant to the colony planet. In the memory of Leo's biochemical warrior, he was one of them. So he knows this plant very well.

Just when Leo looked at the big tree in the space, and some information appeared in his mind to compare with it, Filoria also took the initiative to introduce it. For example, this is where thirty-five brothers and sisters have lived for more than ten years. For example, the surrounding incubators are their rooms, etc. At the same time, she also mentioned the eye-catching tree, and she called that tree a mother, claiming that it was entirely because of the existence of a mother. Brothers and sisters can survive and grow up.
