The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Although the Belem Glacier Lake is located at a very low point in the north and is covered by thick ice all year round, this does not mean that there are no creatures in the lake. In fact, not only lush aquatic plants grow in the lake, but also a large number of other species Fish that feed on aquatic plants. These fish taste very delicious and are a special food for the royal family.

It's just that these fish live in the dense aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake all the year round, and rarely swim outside the aquatic plants, so it is very difficult to catch them, even for divers with strong abilities. No fish from Belém Glacier for sale.

When the detector moved underwater, it also began to scan the bottom of the lake, and easily found the fish schools hidden in the aquatic plants. Similarly, in addition to the fish schools, those spaceship fragments hidden in the aquatic plants were also detected. .

Judging from the distribution location and overall quantity of these fragments, it is obvious that there is not only one mothership cabin that fell here, there may be as many as three or four, and this Belén Ice Lake should also be formed by the cabin hitting the ground.

If it was before, Leo might still be interested in the fragments hidden in the aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake, but now his attention is on the complete cabin, and other things are temporarily put on the back burner by him.

The detector moved very fast at the bottom of the water, and it took less than three minutes to reach the top of the complete cabin.

I saw this cabin lying quietly on the bottom of the lake, and the surrounding silt covered the bottom of the cabin. Judging from the topography of the lake bottom, this cabin did not hit the ground, but instead landed normally like a spaceship, which should It is also the reason why this cabin can be preserved well.

Leo carefully analyzed the shape of the cabin, and quickly judged that this cabin was not an ordinary material cabin or a living cabin, but a guiding engine cabin.

This kind of cabin is mainly used to provide additional guiding thrust for the mothership spacecraft, helping the huge mothership spacecraft to turn in the shortest time when traveling at super high speed in the universe. The entire cabin is like a huge engine component, so I think that when this cabin landed, it was probably because the engine components buffered the force of the fall, allowing it to land on the ground completely.

Although this cabin is not the living cabin that Leo thought at first, it is more in line with his wishes, because each engine cabin has an engine control system, which is not only used to control engine start and Guidance is also used to record flight data, and this flight data is the flight data of the entire mothership.

Since the entire cabin components can be preserved intact, the flight data should also be preserved, but there is still a problem that bothers Leo very much, that is how to call out the flight data, or how to intrude Go inside the engine control system.

Although the Titan-class mothership was built very early, the system server it uses is also very old. It is an old-fashioned system server, but no matter how old-fashioned the system server is, it is also a server of the Earth Federation military. The defense program is definitely not comparable to that of civilian servers. Even after hundreds of years, this gap still exists.

And the more important point is that the mothership spaceship was built before the Earth Federation entered the sequence of medium-sized cosmic civilizations. The military main system and branch systems of the spaceship have not undergone homogeneous transformation. Only the civilian system in the living room needs to be replaced frequently. The reason is that the homogeneous transformation of the supreme council of the universe has been carried out, and the system that has not undergone homogeneous transformation cannot be directly connected through the universal recorder, and can be connected to the spacecraft system only through a homogeneous converter.

In other words, the general-purpose recorder in Leo's hands can't be connected to the control system of the engine compartment at all, let alone intruding into the control system to retrieve flight data, even if the control system also controls the opening function of the cabin's entrance , he couldn't even get into the cabin.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this thing?" Seeing Leo's slightly frowning brows, Sylvia asked.

Leo didn't hide it, and directly said the question he deduced.

Sylvia thought for a while and said, "Although I don't know what system you are talking about, we don't have to go in through the normal way, right? We can completely bypass that system and go in from other places. "

Hearing Sylvia's words, Leo was stunned for a moment, and soon realized that he seemed to have entered a misunderstanding just now. As Sylvia said, he didn't need to enter the cabin through the normal way at all. There are a lot of loopholes in the cabin components themselves, and he can take advantage of these loopholes to enter the cabin.

After thinking about this, Leo couldn't help laughing at himself, and said, "You're right, I was overthinking it, and there are indeed other ways to get in."

Sylvia was also happy to see that she could help Leo, and then asked, "Shall we go now?"

"No, wait for two days." Leo shook his head and said: "Now the system inside this cabin is activated, and some internal defense systems should also be activated. If we enter in an abnormal state, we may depart These defense systems, so wait for two days, wait for the system inside the cabin to return to the standby state, and then act."

"What about us now? Shall we just go back like this?" After the novelty wore off, Sylvia began to feel bored, and did not pay attention to the impact of the recorder's transmission. Frowning, she looked at the damp and cold passage, and said. .

"You can go back." Leo nodded, but paused again, and said, "But now, there is one more thing to do."

After speaking, he was seen controlling the detector to approach the cabin, and then began to record the communication light waves emitted from the cabin and store them.

These light waves are only the most primitive wavelength data, and the information data needs to be recompiled and analyzed. However, this kind of compilation and analysis is not difficult for Leo. After returning to the camp, he can start to analyze. It is also possible to know who the communication light waves continuously emitted from this cabin want to get in touch with.

After recording for about half an hour, the analysis program on the recorder informed that the data began to repeat, and Leo stopped the data transmission of the detector and began to control the detector to go back.

After Leo adjusted the detector to the automatic recovery state, he did not pay attention to the holographic image, but squatted down, stretched his hand into the water, tested the water temperature, and learned about the situation of the lake.

At this time, Sylvia was still bored looking at the lake bottom scenery fed back by the detector, but she suddenly seemed to have discovered something interesting, and said to Leo: "Wait, turn the image back, I just now Do you seem to see something?"

Hearing this, Leo also turned his attention back to the holographic image, and adjusted the control disregard back to manual control, then manipulated the detector, and moved over in the direction described by Sylvia.

"Gods are above! What the hell is this?" The holographic image appeared what Sylvia mentioned, and although Sylvia was already mentally prepared, she still couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

I saw a giant crawling in a deep pit at the bottom of the lake. This giant looked like a huge worm, but the worm's skin had countless monster mouths, which were constantly opening and closing, as if to Like chanting something.

When seeing the monster, Sylvia felt disgust from the bottom of her heart, as if it was the most disgusting thing in the world.

Leo also felt disgusted, but he was able to control his emotions from showing, and controlled the detector to blur the image, reducing the discomfort caused by the image.

"What happened just now?" After the image blurred, Sylvia immediately recovered from the extreme disgust. She was stunned for a moment, and then asked with some doubts.

It is not surprising to have a disgust for a monster, but Sylvia has stayed in the Orthodox Court after all, and there are countless records of various monsters and various monster specimens made in the Orthodox Church. She has long been numb to these monsters, and many of those monsters are weirder and more disgusting than the worms she saw just now. Logically, she shouldn't have such a strong disgust.

"We should have been mentally polluted just now!" Leo thought for a while and explained.

"Spiritual pollution?" Sylvia was stunned. Show puzzled color.

Leo explained earnestly: "For example, if you are by Lia Venistan, no matter how much you hate her, you can't have any hatred for her, and even the disgust will be actively suppressed, and instead you will treat her A state of admiration is produced, which is spiritual pollution, but it is more appropriate to describe this harmless effect as assimilation, and it should be called spiritual pollution if it produces strong negative emotions like just now.” He said, as if Thinking of something again, he continued: "When this kind of spiritual pollution reaches a certain level, it will be transferred from the spiritual level to the material level, and begin to transform the body of the infected person."

"Isn't this just familialization?" Hearing Leo's explanation, Sylvia immediately thought of a situation she knew, and said.

"Yes." Leo nodded, and said, "It is indeed family transformation, but the family transformation you mentioned should be the spiritual and physical mutation completed under conscious guidance, and the spiritual pollution we encountered just now is completely passive. Yes, I'm afraid that monster doesn't know it's affecting us either."

"Is it a god?" Sylvia suddenly asked again.

"No, I don't think so." Leo shook his head and said, "I didn't feel any power fluctuations that a god should have on it just now."

"Power fluctuations?" Sylvia couldn't understand Leo's words.

Although Sylvia showed doubts, Leo didn't give any further explanations. In fact, even he didn't know how to explain it, because as he said, this judgment was only derived from feelings, and Like he found that Lia Venistan was walking on the path of the gods, not only because of her life form evolution, but also because of some indescribable feelings, and he thought that the reason why he felt this way should be It has something to do with the messy marks of gods on his body.

Sylvia saw that Leo didn't plan to explain further, and didn't ask any more questions. She turned her attention back to the blurred image, and said puzzledly, "Why isn't this monster mentioned in the data? Logically speaking, they are so Over the years, I have searched all the bottom of this lake, it is impossible to turn a blind eye to such a big monster, what is this other monster? There is no monster of this type among all the monsters I know?"

"I don't know what this monster is, and there is no such monster in the information I know." Leo also showed doubts, looked at the blurred image, and said, "As for why there is no such monster in the camp?" Information about the monster..."

When Leo was about to say something, he suddenly found that the blurry image was changing, so he signaled Sylvia to be careful, and then controlled the detector again to adjust the image to a clear state, even if the image he adjusted was clear The state of the monster was still blurred in the holographic image, and soon became transparent, and then disappeared in front of the two of them.

"What's going on here?" Sylvia stared blankly at the monster disappearing from the image, and couldn't help asking in doubt.

"I understand!" Leo's face showed a look of sudden realization, it seems that the disappearance of the monster made him understand something, and before Sylvia asked, he directly explained: "Why is the diving in the camp It's actually very simple that none of them have seen this monster, because this monster is not in the lake at all, so they naturally can't see it."

"Not in the lake? Then we..." Sylvia was a little puzzled at first, but she soon realized something, pointing to the holographic image, and said, "Could it be that monster is also this image?"

"Yeah!" Leo nodded, and said, "That cabin emits communication light waves, trying to contact something, but this kind of light waves accidentally captured the image of this monster, and then projected it to the bottom of the lake. Only then did we have the scene we just saw. Remember that completely mutated diver?"

"Of course I remember." Sylvia nodded and said, "You mean that the diver didn't mutate because of that light, but because he saw this monster."

"Well, it should be this monster that caused the insanity of that family member, and eventually caused the disordered mutation of the body. Think about it, even you and I can't avoid the mental pollution of that monster, let alone those whose spirits are already Very fragile family members." Leo confirmed Sylvia's guess, and continued: "Afterwards, as long as this cabin emits light, those divers will not go into the water, and naturally they will not be able to see this monster. .”
