Chapter 123 Cognition

"Woo——"

A buzzing sound like a siren sounded in the auditory systems of the aliens in the colony. It was the alarm before the "boom" was activated, which also meant that the flood was coming again.

"Oh, another 'boom'."

"Sir, I think it will be safer if we rush to the shelter. If we continue to stay here, in case..."

"Why are you panicking? If the 'boom sound' is activated, the flood tide will not be able to rush in."

Maven looked unhappy and waved his hand impatiently, as if to ward off annoying flies.

But Maven's work didn't last long before he stopped.

The piece of meat used as the experimental subject exploded into a pair of disgusting pastes that needed to be coded.

"...I just wanted to tell you that the protection against 'sound boom' in the laboratory has not been completed."

"Didn't I tell you to do it more than ten days ago?"

Marvin glared at the assistant slightly sullenly. While hesitating, the assistant explained the whole story.

"General, the Governor's Mansion said there was a shortage of building materials, so... so..."

There was no need for the assistant to explain clearly later, and Maven also understood what was going on. It was just the governor who was putting pressure on her.

She sighed softly and shook her head, but she was no longer as angry as she had just shown.

"In that case, let's take a rest."

"After a while, the sound blast is over, you go to the cold room to get another experimental product, and the work continues."

Marvin dragged his tired body towards the outside of the laboratory, but he heard the assistant's nervous words again.

"Then, um, the governor wants me to give you a letter."

As he spoke, the assistant tremblingly took out the white letter from the side collar of his clothes and handed it to Maven who was about to leave.

Maven looked slightly unhappy.

"Didn't I tell you not to collect things randomly?"

"But, that's the governor, I'm just an inconspicuous little person..."

The assistant was crying. He now regretted extremely why he took this job in the first place. He finally understood what he would face after taking this job.

No wonder the salary in the original agreement was so high. No wonder Sir Marvin's assistants are like commodities that are constantly being replaced on the assembly line. No wonder the former assistant looked like he saw his savior when he resigned - the assistant wanted to cry.

Thinking without tears, he could already foresee the rejection from his boss, and then he would be put in a bad position by the Governor's Mansion.

However, Marvin's next answer was beyond the assistant's expectation.

"Let's go."

"Well……"

The assistant thought he heard wrongly.

Seeing the assistant's stunned look, Maven repeated it impatiently.

"Let's go, how many more times do you want me to say it?"

"Oh...oh! Yes! I will prepare the car for you, Sir!"

Full of doubts, the assistant hurriedly ran out of the laboratory where they were talking, leaving Marvin alone.

Marvin stared straight at the experimental object that had been shattered into a pool of slurry fluid by the sonic boom, and unknowingly fell into deep thought, and began to murmur to himself.

"It's so strange, why is this happening?"

"Why did the monsters that attacked us change after that meteor shower? None of the monsters from before are gone now."

"The time interval between them is so short, as if they were agreed in advance. It is really hard to accept that it is a coincidence."

"Were those monsters causing the meteorites?"

"No, it shouldn't be. In that case, this colony would have fallen long ago."

"So, could it be an awakening? Because that meteorite rain completely 'awakened' the biological groups sleeping on this planet?"

"Looking at the ecosystem on this planet, it illustrates the problem. The size of 'Roshan' is too huge for a living creature. The largest creature on the home planet is only one-half of the size of 'Roshan'

.”

"And this kind of creature itself actually continuously emits heat. This should be the ability evolved to resist the severe cold. This is consistent with the observation results of the mother planet a long time ago. It is a planet completely covered by ice and snow, but now there is no ice or snow.

existence, and the climate is suitable, it should be because the number of 'Roshan' has reached a level that affects the planet's climate."

"It is by no means a simple ecosystem that can give birth to such complex organisms. The evolution of organisms is a step-by-step gradual evolution. It changes itself due to the external environment and adapts to the environment more in order to survive. Therefore, it is necessary to give birth to complex organisms.

The ecosystem must be a more complex ecosystem."

"Before this planet was frozen, there was an explosion of species for a period of time, and the effect of this explosion was far beyond that of the mother planet, allowing the species on this planet to evolve to a more advanced level."

As soon as Maven had this idea, she couldn't help but start thinking about it.

"There was a time on this planet where continuous explosions of species occurred frequently, and various types of creatures were everywhere."

"They soon dominated the ocean and the sky..."

Maven stopped when she thought about this. She found that something didn't make sense - the creatures on this planet dominated the sea and sky, why didn't they only dominate the land?

However, Maven soon thought of a possibility.

"Perhaps, there was no land at all at that time, or there were only small scattered islands, so the species on this planet did not evolve completely complete land creatures."

"The earliest monsters should have been at the bottom of the food chain. Nowadays, they are no longer seen. It is probably because the predators that feed on those monsters have been 'awakened' in the ocean, and their numbers have been stabilized."

"Fortunately, we only have to face the 'Roshan', a very territorial biota..."

Maven's push came to a stop, and she found that there was one thing that didn't make sense, and that was the temperature.

The distance between this planet and the star itself is not enough to provide sufficient temperature. In other words, it is normal for the planet's surface to be frozen, and temperatures above freezing point are abnormal.

To understand it in reverse, during a certain period of time on this planet, there was an abnormal increase in temperature on the surface of the planet. This may be the result of something or an event, and this phenomenon is also very likely to be a stimulus.

The source of this planet’s biological explosion.

"...I seem to have discovered something extraordinary."

"No, we can't just say that right now. This is just a guess. We need to find concrete evidence to confirm this guess."

At this moment, the assistant came in from outside the door and said very respectfully.

"Sir, your car to the banquet is ready."

"Um."
