Chapter 210 Purification Terminal
"Junkyard" galaxy, which is a standard single-star system composed of an F-type star and six barren planets.
Like most galaxies in the Milky Way, this place is unremarkable. Although it should not be reduced to a place where garbage is piled up, there is no garbage dump in the Milky Way. If there are too many people littering here, it will become a wasteland. The "junkyard" galaxy.
How to reuse waste is a link that interstellar civilization must consider. A capable civilization can naturally deal with the large amount of waste generated by the rapid development of those civilizations.
However, for many civilizations that have just come into contact with the interstellar space, or do not rely on their own strength to go to the sky, it is a thankless task to deal with the garbage they generate.
However, the Milky Way is so vast, even if the garbage is thrown away anywhere, no one will care, right?
Different from the society of the indigenous period, there are few civilizations or organizations in the interstellar society that are sensitive to such things as the "galactic environment".
Most of the so-called "environmental protection organizations" protect the ecology of livable planets, and dismiss other worthless planets.
After all, the Milky Way is too big, and this kind of "worthless" planets just account for the majority.
So ever since a certain civilization concentrated in one place and began to "litter", there have been more such "garbage dump" galaxies in the Milky Way.
This kind of place usually piles up some extremely difficult and useless compounds, but occasionally some capitalists in civilization will abandon "useful garbage" here because of cost issues.
So there are some interstellar wanderers who make a living by picking up garbage, as well as adventurers whose journeys are not smooth, they will come to the "garbage dump" galaxy from time to time to live on the garbage inside.
There is such a team of former "Legendary Adventurers" who are now in such a state of desperation that they have to rely on picking up trash to survive the difficulties.
"...Damn it, where did that **** guy Lone Wolf go? I don't even think about who led him to create a great career? At this time, he doesn't want to come to help us, and he doesn't reply to the message !"
The leader of this adventurer team kept cursing while using the detection stick to pull the garbage pile under him.
He is also a "legendary adventurer", or a former "legendary adventurer".
In that era, almost all interstellar adventurers had heard of his name, because the team he formed created one legend after another in the galaxy, becoming a well-deserved "legendary team" in the annals of history.
However, it was such a "legendary team" that suddenly disappeared when it should have continued to flourish.
The other adventurers all rumored that the team died in an alien relic with a huge secret, and the treasures they left behind, besides countless wealth, also had clues related to this secret , and attracted the enthusiasm of countless adventurers.
This "legendary ending" seems to be very suitable for their identities, but only the parties know that they are just "down".
Since Lone Wolf, an unknown soldier in the "Legendary Team", was fired by them, their careers have plummeted, and they have finally fallen into picking up garbage for a living.
Until now, they couldn't figure it out, it was just one person missing, why did their follow-up experiences have such a big change?
The leader doesn't understand either, so whenever he picks up trash, he always brings up the lone wolf from time to time, and his words are full of resentment.
But scolding is scolding, and the garbage still has to be picked up.
The detector in the leader's hand suddenly trembled a little. The eating guy who accompanied him in his "legendary life" lived up to his expectations and found something of real value in a pile of non-recyclable waste. .
He glanced at the others quietly, and saw that none of them were looking here, so he pretended not to find anything while scanning and picking through the garbage dump, and soon discovered the root cause of the "change".
—An abandoned robot.
The leader is also a well-informed person after all, and he recognizes that this type of robot comes from the "Conqueror Empire".
Now that the "Empire of the Conquerors" has been destroyed, this kind of robot produced in the empire may be sold as a cultural relic to some collectors at a high price.
However, moving this kind of robot will inevitably attract attention. Although it is a pity that he cannot take it all by himself, the leader is still planning to call other people to deal with this abandoned robot.
However, just as he was about to call through the communication equipment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the robot moving from the corner of his eye. When he turned around, he found that the robot was still lifeless. The previous glimpse seemed to be an illusion.
Curiosity surged into the leader's heart. He was just about to reach out to touch the abandoned robot, but suddenly remembered a piece of advice:
“…don’t always be so curious, sometimes curiosity can kill people.”
He vaguely remembered that this sentence seemed to be said by the lone wolf, but how could he follow this advice when he was already dissatisfied with the lone wolf?
Finally, he came across the abandoned robot—
"—Boss, today's luck is not very good, did you find anything there?"
However, after waiting for a while without receiving a response, the adventurer secretly felt something was wrong, and called other companions to find the leader of the team together.
Not worried about his safety, but suspected that he found something good and left without saying goodbye.
It didn't take long to search, and they soon found that the leader was standing next to a pile of garbage, motionless.
They who had been exploring for a long time didn't realize that something was wrong, so they just surrounded them.
One of them tripped over something in the middle, and the person who was already in a bad mood kicked him without even looking at it, but was firmly caught by something in the middle of the kick.
He looked down, only to see an abandoned robot that was buried deep in the garbage dump grabbed his leg, and the indicator light was flashing a dangerous red light.
Before he had time to issue a warning, it was as if some alarm had been triggered, and rustling sounds came from the surrounding space.
There is almost no atmosphere on the surface of this planet. It stands to reason that this kind of sound should not be heard. However, the abandoned robots swaying and standing up one after another around them make these adventurers feel like they are there. Consciously brain made up this sound.
They began to scream and use their weapons to deal with this inexplicable "robot riot".
However, there are an unusually large number of abandoned robots in this place, and they seem to be concentrated here intentionally.
They also seem to understand the fragility of their own parts, so they can only use their numbers to overwhelm this group of "organisms".
No one knows how long this crowd tactics lasted, but the spaceship belonging to this group of adventurers flew to the interstellar again after a period of time.
It didn't look like it had changed, but it remained eerily silent on the road, not responding to anyone's communication requests.
The scene of the "junkyard" galaxy is not known to the outside world, but at the moment the adventurer spaceship took off, Li Wenyuan's exploration of the planet that was "caught" into the subspace also came to an end.
As he expected, this place is not as clean as it appears on the surface, and there are still many clues that only he can "understand" are placed on the planet majestically.
It was a very familiar large machine. Its outer shell was a wall made of living metal, and its interior protected a device surrounded by many pipes and lines.
This structure Li Wenyuan is very familiar with, because the "Guardian Matrix" on the earth is in such a device.
Except that the "big light ball" that is the main body of the "Guardian Matrix" does not appear on this device, the layout of this machine is exactly the same as the "Guardian Matrix".
—In other words, the "Guardian Matrix" was actually modeled after this one.
And Li Wenyuan also found the "not erased" information here.
It was a notice board with "display information", which seemed to be the museum's introduction to this object, and it fell to the ground due to the vibration, covering the side with the information written on it.
It’s hard to imagine that such a primitive exhibition method still exists in the interstellar era. Shouldn’t it be displayed with pure electronic projection?
But at this moment, it did give Li Wenyuan information.
On the notice board, it reads:
【Exhibition: "Suzheng Agreement" Memorial】
【Introduction: This is one of the sub-units of the "Suzheng Agreement" located in this galaxy. We are thankful that we were able to cut off the galaxy from the outside world before this thing triggered, and dealt with it perfectly. Now what you see is a completely harmless artificial intelligence hub, it can even sing, dance, rap, as long as it has the right body...]
Looking at the mechanical device in front of him that is very similar to the "Guardian Matrix", Li Wenyuan thought for a while, and let the "Sky Veil Battleship" mobilize energy and infuse it into this device.
As he expected, the device didn't start, it only flickered for a while, and then returned to its original lifeless appearance, as if something extremely important was missing here.
But this behavior is not completely fruitless, the first received information that was originally introduced by this planet has changed.
The place where the "data was damaged" before began to change, and a string of garbled characters emerged on it, and gradually fixed it word by word.
This process is very fast, it only takes less than a second in the conversion of the real universe, and it shows the true introduction of the planet itself.
【Name: Dedicated Planetary Machinery—Purification Terminal】
【Planet number: CX-9879】
【Planet Type: Artificial Intelligence Planet】
As for the information that was "told" to Li Wenyuan before, it has been uniformly marked in red and arranged under this string of information.
