Rangers are not a race that likes to record scientific research results.
Recorder did find some more things, but they were still those records of achievements. The lifespan of this race seems to be quite long, so there are many similar records, but few really useful ones are left.
"Hey...I tried my best, Captain."
Recorder walked out of the room, then turned around and said, "The phantom can't be seen anymore. It seems to only be effective in the room."
"Try to be as vigilant as possible. Let's look for other rooms here." Lu Ning organized all the photographed information, then stood up and walked into the corridor.
She was still a little confused, and she still felt a little missing. There seemed to be some missing information in the Rangers' records. There was no mention of whether they left later, and if they died here, they would not feel the danger. Coming? Anomalies that can be detected by observers can't be felt by these rangers?
"Captain, there's nothing here."
Due to the situations they encountered before, the team always opened the door first to see what was going on inside. This is the bottom floor, and compared with the previous house, there are not so many recorded furnishings in the other rooms. It seems that this kind of glory can only belong to one person in the past, which makes people more and more convinced that that house This is the residence of the leader of this tribe.
Just when he opened the last room, Lu Ning instantly raised his arms, and several people behind him also raised their weapons.
This was also an ordinary bedroom with no decoration. The only difference was that there was a person reclining on the huge bed that fit the size of a ranger.
He only had some clothes made of simple metal pieces, his skin was like white marble, and every muscle was extremely obvious, like a bodybuilder. There is no hair on his head, including eyebrows and beards, only some white fluff covering the top of his head. This man was holding a metal book in his hand. After Lu Ning and others opened the door, they looked over the top of the book.
"Is it a human?" Spade immediately raised his gun.
"It's not a human being." Dragon Vein also aimed at the person on the bed, "The distribution of muscles on his body is different from that of a natural person."
When the other party saw the crowd, she slowly opened her mouth, and then Lu Ning heard a piercing scream, but at the same time she raised her hand and fired a shocking light bomb. The sharp sound was caused by the explosion of the light bomb. The calls were confusing and didn't cause much trouble.
The man moved his mouth and seemed to be struggling to adjust the shape of his mouth.
"people?"
He made a sound with a somewhat sharp voice, and Lu Ning could hear it clearly this time.
"What kind of creature are you!" Spade asked boldly.
"Creature?" The man closed his eyes slightly, "Natural, yes, human."
"He is learning our language." Longmai said in a deep voice, "Captain, we have to pay attention. It is not clear whether this person is an enemy or a friend."
"Not sure, it's my friend." The man slowly began to speak, "Study, I, pay attention."
"This guy seems to have a very powerful mind, even though he is repeating what we said now." Tiemei said, "But why is he here?"
Lu Ning was a little confused. She couldn't decide whether she should start some basic education here. Compared with mechanical learning, educating a person actually made people feel more uncomfortable. After thinking for a moment, she pointed at herself.
"Come with us."
"Let's go together." The man seemed to understand what Lu Ning meant, "We are friends."
"Captain?" The recorder's voice sounded a little reluctant, "Are you sure it's a good idea to let him follow us? Maybe he will break our necks behind us?"
"This discovery is probably the only one, otherwise NE-002 would not have told me. Of course, I have to hand this person over to her, but if I just give up, I might miss some important clues."
"Then I have to keep an eye on him." Recorder snorted.
The man put the metal book under his arm, rolled over and got off the bed, and walked step by step to a distance of about three meters. He was actually about two meters tall, but slightly smaller than the rangers. Lu Ning decided not to stay in this beacon anymore. The things he had collected were enough now, so it was better to avoid long nights and dreams.
Along the way, this person maintained that distance, neither approaching nor moving away, no matter whether Lu Ning and others accelerated or decelerated. It wasn't until he got on the elevator that he had to get closer because of the size of the elevator shaft.
Although his muscle structure is quite different from that of humans, it still has a strange sense of perfection, which even makes people feel a little unreal. Such a person is simply full of doubts. Lu Ning has actually been staring at him. Fortunately, the detector is in It was also effective on him. Before this person showed any extraordinary behavior, Lu Ning pretended to be invisible for the time being.
After returning to the ground, the team quickly returned to the spacecraft. Lu Ning directly entered the spacecraft's communication channel and quickly called NE-002.
There was a little noise this time, probably due to some interference in the surroundings, but in the end it was successfully connected.
"You are quite fast. The size of those beacons should take at least a day or so to explore."
NE-002's voice came from inside.
"It's not possible to continue. We found a person from inside."
"……people?"
=
NE-002 is confused.
In fact, she has gathered a lot of information in her hands. There are four exploration records of the Rangers' construction beacons, but none of them have found any living things - the ones stored in the tubes do not count.
And after Lu Ning sent the photo, she was even more surprised.
In the four records, the rangers have defeated nearly 600 civilizations, but there are not many human-like civilizations, and even fewer have the same general image. She can even remember the characteristics, and none of them looks like them. This look.
Soon, Lu Ning's voice came over again: "Do you have any way to deal with this matter? My outpost may not be able to accommodate such a person of unknown origin. He learns things too fast. It’s so scary that I doubt he’ll be able to fly it within a few minutes of getting on board.”
"Doesn't he have 'eyes' on his body?"
"What is the ultimate goal? Although we have read some of the information, we still have a limited understanding of this technology."
"A technology that distorts the material world through cognition. Strong cognition can erase weak cognition, and even the legacy of cognition can still affect those who come after you. If you find the specimen showroom, all those specimens will be through this kind of technology." It is extracted by technology. Under this technology, the technology we have now is minutiae, because as long as they need it, they can completely build it.”
"Sounds similar to the God of Creation."
"It's not that excessive. First of all, it is very difficult to have strong cognition, because it is not possible for ordinary psychology to believe even oneself in calling a deer a horse. Secondly, when the maintainer of the 'object' leaves After that, this distortion will begin to be restored, and of course the time is difficult to estimate. Third, when the other party’s thinking is too firm or simple, it is impossible to control the other party’s cognition. In addition, I also have many The Rangers tried to record controllable 'object' creations, but they didn't see any success."
"I don't have one here either...wait a minute, do you suspect that the person we brought out may be a product of this kind?"
"That's almost the meaning. The Rangers are working on many projects at the same time, and extracting the excellent genes of various civilizations to make specimens is a very strange thing. They don't take the excellent genes as their own, just as collections, why do they still Want to make a specimen?"
"Indeed, at first I thought it was because they relied on their strength and were not afraid of these specimens waking up unexpectedly. Now it seems that they are in the process of trial production."
What are you trying to produce? Lu Ning almost thought of it. Although the Rangers possess the technology of "eyes", they are also affected by it. They cannot mix too many distracting thoughts in their thinking. In most cases, their thoughts are straightforward. So the reason why it is made by mixing a large number of high-quality genes of civilizations in the universe can also be considered from this simple thinking... just like when people made totems in ancient times.
Combining the characteristics creates the worship of nothingness, and the "eye" can turn this nothingness into reality, but in the end it cannot point to the real god.
"But I think the one you found was also a failure." NE-002 changed the subject, "Some of the records in my hand have mentioned similar things. The rangers use the word perfect specimen to describe it, but the essence is There is no difference between them. And their hope is that this person should be born with knowledge and be able to inherit the knowledge of all civilizations based solely on the information stored in his genes, and have the ability to survive in any environment."
"Are they going to create a deformed cell?"
"This joke is very funny, but to put it simply, it is actually a delusion. Have you discovered it? The fourth question is the purpose."
Lu Ning sighed: "So the Rangers couldn't find an opponent, so they wanted to create one themselves. But the technology of 'Mou' is invincible against those weaker than themselves, but they can't create an existence that is as strong as themselves, so they just It’s a roundabout way.”
NE-002 also felt a little ridiculous: "Such a powerful civilization has also taken this step of seeking death."
"Are there any records related to their ending or whereabouts?"
"It's a mystery."
When Lu Ning heard this answer, she knew what the exploration progress of NE-002 was, but at this moment, several other voices suddenly entered the channel.
"What are you talking about?" At this time, a majestic and slightly old voice sounded.
"General! Are you out?" NE-002's voice suddenly rose, full of joy.
"Thank you for your concern." Another voice using a mechanical voice came, "I came out to tell you that I was safe, but I didn't expect you to be on the call? It seems that I need to adjust the permission settings."
"No, everyone should have the right to enter the communication channel in an emergency. That..."
"We can see the number. Isn't this my person?"
This tone made Lu Ning feel slightly familiar. Of course, she could also tell from the channel who the two people who suddenly broke in were, DU-001 and NE-001. It seemed that as the number one team, the alliance had indeed given them another permissions.
"Anyway... we just explored the ruins and brought out a lot of information." NE-001 began to speak, and the channel became quiet.
"The ruins belong not to the rangers, but to the observers. The technology of this civilization is more similar to ours, and some data can also be brought out in the form of images. The observers have detailed records, through which we can make more accurate predictions about the Phantom Star. judge."
"As expected of the captain." NE-002 said, "As we have mentioned before, DU-003 also discovered a similar ruins during previous explorations. It was relatively small in size. According to the picture feedback, it should be applied It’s the technology of the observer.”
"Oh? Well done." NE-001 smiled a little this time, "When the general call order is issued, I hope you can respond to us, DU-003."
"Wait a minute, this is my person, and your person is the one who spoke just now." DU-001 said half-jokingly, "Since we broke into this call, let me ask, did something go wrong? "
Lu Ning thought for a while and told the person he found and related matters. NE-002 also sent some summary information to the two of them.
After that, there was a silence for about five minutes.
"General, this matter is not trivial." DU-001 returned to his serious attitude, "Whether that person is normal or abnormal, it is already living evidence. It is fundamentally different from relics and the like. We have to decide …Should this be reported?”
"Yeah." NE-001 responded in a low voice, "You read faster. Did you find anything noteworthy?"
"We still need to make further assumptions about this person, but I think I already have an idea of the most important thing, about what the Rangers are doing."
"Isn't it a god?" Lu Ning asked.
"The Rangers are an organization, not a simple individual." NE-001 said slowly, "No organization will have only one purpose at the same time. It divides labor and cooperates, and each completes a goal to achieve its own progress and strength. , this is the attitude that the life of the ethnic group must have. Creating gods is one thing, but creating gods is only one of the ways for them to find opponents..."
"General, I think they found it." DU-001 said.
"How do you know that?"
"That weird picture."
The picture that Lu Ning and Long Mei had studied before appeared on the shared screen. The spacecraft absorbed the energy of the star and attacked the planet.
"According to the previous analysis of DU-003, this picture should be the process of planetary belt creation and blue giant rewinding in the Phantom Star." NE-002 said, "I think this judgment is reasonable, judging from other The information can be corroborated laterally.”
"Reasonable?" DU-001's voice was slightly surprised. "Their habit is to keep their own force and glory as records. Everything is a model of how they conquered or defeated a certain civilization, or even a planet or galaxy. Collecting, making specimens... Looking at other pictures, although it can't be called a hard battle, every battle is a war with a civilization with a similar level of technology. But what does this picture count? Breaking a planet? This counts. What kind of show of force? The Canglong Alliance... no, even the five battleships currently on the periphery of the galaxy can complete the mission of destroying planets!"
When Lu Ning heard these words, her eyes returned to the picture, and she immediately realized the core problem.
Glorious past events and records of military exploits, then this relief must be an opponent the Rangers thought they had defeated that they could be proud of.
