Chapter 394 The Scale of the Squid
【Scale of Time Squid】
【Introduction: He has been waiting for you for too long...】
This seems to be the trace left by human beings here. An object called "Scale of Time Grass" has an extremely short introduction, even so short that it is very different from the usual human style.
But in the "Hunter", this is content that even they cannot decipher.
Not only these, from the introduction, it seems that this is for him, for "Li Wenyuan".
The so-called "waiting", it is him who is waiting.
After the "hunter" moved the object near Li Wenyuan's spaceship, he really saw the appearance of the "Scale of Time" with his own eyes.
In the data delivered by the "Hunter" before, there is only a short video record of "The Scale of Time". According to them, it seems that there is a "mysterious force" interfering with their shooting.
After actually seeing the "Scale of the Time Scorpion", Li Wenyuan realized what that "mysterious power" was.
He himself is a piece of data living in the virtual world, and all external perceptions are essentially from the detection of various sensor devices. At this time, through the battleship sensors near the "Scale of Time", he feels very freshly. To the feeling of "communication being disturbed".
There is indeed "something" that is interfering with the data transmission nearby. Even his equipment cannot detect the source of this mysterious disturbance, and even the "abnormal alarm" did not occur.
In the detection of these detection equipment, their surroundings are quite normal, and there is no "abnormality" in any way.
However, Li Wenyuan could see “disturbances” like snow patterns in those sensors that directly use optical imaging. They are of different sizes and flicker back and forth around the “Scale of Time Squid”, which looks like the sensor is broken.
It's hard to understand why an optical imaging sensor would have this problem, but this "disturbance" didn't exist for long and quickly disappeared without a trace.
After the "disturbance" is over, what Li Wenyuan sees is a translucent object enclosed in a transparent observation box, which looks like the scales of some kind of "creature".
"But this size... If it is really a 'creature', it may be much larger than the ether dragon, right?"
The scale itself looks like a melon seed shell, with obvious radians and protrusions. The light seems to be scattered unknown after passing through its translucent surface, making the entire scale look very dark.
In the spectrum received by the sensor, it also shows that most of the wavelengths of light are absorbed by it, and only a few can be reflected on the surface of the scales or directly penetrate the scales, forming the current "time scorpion" in terms of optical effects. scales".
At the same time, Li Wenyuan also found that his detector could not analyze the material of the scales, which was a very novel experience for him now.
The composition of matter in this "universe" is basically fixed. Generally speaking, with the current level of his detectors, there is no need to use "sampling" methods, and it is possible to directly obtain the information of something by just "seeing". material composition.
However, judging from the material reaction on the "Scale of Time", this is an unprecedented "new substance", and it is even difficult to define it as a product of this universe, as if it came from another "world".
The current "Scale of Time Scale" is vibrating almost imperceptibly due to some unknown power. Although the universe is a vacuum, the transparent box used to hold the "Scale of Time Squid" is not.
The gas turbulence generated by the vibration of the "Scale of the Time Weaver" was faithfully recorded by the sensor in the box and passed to Li Wenyuan.
When handing over this magical object, "Hunter" removed any program restrictions on the box, so even if the standards are different, Li Wenyuan can easily hack into these sensors and connect with them.
Thanks to this, he also obtained the vibration data of "Scale of the Time Grass". Although at first glance, it looks messy, but with more data support, he can draw some "regular" conclusions.
Judging from the research records of "Hunter", they believe that this kind of vibration is like the sound of some insects vibrating their wings to attract attention, and the purpose is to "attract attention".
In addition, they also believed that this regular vibration meant that the "Scales of Time Scorpion" was "speaking" something, but unfortunately their experts could not get the answer to this question.
For Li Wenyuan, although these vibrations are regular, it is difficult to decipher the secrets. He always feels that the ripples caused by those vibrations are familiar, but he can't think of the answer for a while.
"And...is this really left by humans?"
During a short thought, Li Wenyuan had such doubts.
Now the entire "Exile" galaxy is no different from being explored. He has not found human remains, nor has he found the expected "observation terminal" and "purification terminal".
If the data he saw was everything the "Hunter" found, then only this "Scale of Time Weaver" would be the greatest possibility.
What made Li Wenyuan fix the "Scale of the Time Weaver" at a glance was the location of the "Scale of the Time Weaver", which is a black hole galaxy, and there are nearly twenty "dead planets" of different sizes in it.
Organisms may forget this long-standing memory, but it is impossible for Li Wenyuan, who is a data life, to forget.
He clearly remembered that there was also a unique galaxy with a large number of "dead planets" in the Milky Way, and the gravitational source of the galaxy also happened to be a black hole.
An even more important point is that this "dead planet" galaxy is also the place where Li Wenyuan first learned about the "Ring of Time".
Grey Wind heard the "black hole" calling to her there, and Li Wenyuan also found traces left by humans near the black hole - "strange cycle".
In the galaxies he traveled in the past, he failed to find this kind of "dead planet" galaxy again. This time he found it in the "Exile" galaxy, and he was sure at a glance that this was the place he was looking for.
And this "Scale of Time" from there must also have a huge secret.
But it is a pity that he can't analyze the secret of the "Scale of Time" now, and this strange way of leaving information also makes him doubt whether it is something left by human beings.
“…and the profile that goes with it is so weird, there’s no way they would leave me a message in that tone…”
Doubts did not decrease but increased, so Li Wenyuan immediately decided to go to the "dead planet" galaxy to take a look.
It was originally under the control of the "Hunter" civilization, but now it was also handed over to Li Wenyuan along with the "Scale of Time".
The fluctuations of the transition flashed by, and the curiosity to understand this secret made him temporarily put aside the rest of his affairs and came directly there.
It is very similar to the scenery in the Milky Way, a "dead galaxy" full of dead planets, the accretion disk of the central black hole is no longer bright, but the outline of the ball can still be roughly seen.
When Li Wenyuan first arrived, he didn't detect any special fluctuations, but soon his consciousness was directly in the virtual world.
He could "hear" "something" calling him, not through sensors or data networks, but as if it appeared directly in his consciousness.
He checked the integrity of his consciousness data almost subconsciously, but found that there were no problems, neither data reduction nor new data inflow.
The "perception" of the data body needs to be completed by relying on data. Its vision, hearing and all other senses essentially convert the changes of external substances into data, and perceive by interpreting the data.
This process will be accompanied by an increase in the amount of data, but Li Wenyuan found that his consciousness data has not changed at all.
Before he had time to think about what was going on, the "voice" started calling him again.
【—Li Wenyuan—】
This time the call was very clear and clear, and it was his name that could be heard in an instant, but the "language" used was difficult to understand.
That does not seem to be any language that exists in this universe, but a language that is more special, more chaotic, more difficult to understand, but has a strange order.
It seems to be the reading method of the "data" characters that make up this universe. After a certain combination of those numbers, the name of this "Chinese" is finally formed.
The pronunciation in Chinese is like this, but the pronunciation in "data" is the mysterious language just now.
Li Wenyuan was a little puzzled as to why he could "understand" this language, or even understand the meaning it expressed.
But the next moment he didn't think about it anymore, because the third "call" came.
He could clearly feel that the owner of the "voice" seemed to have some kind of emotion, maybe it was joy, maybe it was eagerness, or it might be some higher-level emotion.
As "The Scale of Time" said, the other party seems to have been "waiting" for him for a long time.
And Li Wenyuan looked through the sensor, looking at the black hole whose spherical outline was faintly exposed because of the luminous accretion disk.
At this time, there seems to be some "creature" twisting in the black hole, and anyone who looks at it will feel creepy.
However, Li Wenyuan didn't think so, instead he felt relieved.
"Finally, is it my turn to 'name'?"
