Chapter 715: Going deep into the ruins ring
“What about the follow-up?”
The information obtained was browsed, but it was seriously incomplete, and it did not explain why the Bodu civilization was destroyed. It may be related to the spiritual realm or it may be due to its own civilization.
If you want to know the truth about the destruction of the Peddu civilization, you need more information.
"It's gone."
"It's gone? The clue is broken?"
"No, don't rush to make a conclusion, the stellar ring remains have not been explored yet."
The rings in this star system are very huge, no less than the rings built by the collectors.
But at the same time, this ruin ring is very fragile, and electromagnetic force cannot be displayed on a more macroscopic matter. Just at the planetary scale, the strength of the electromagnetic material is already soft like noodles, not to mention the stellar scale. The material strength provided by electromagnetic force is the same as nothing.
Because of the concern that the ruins rings were disintegrated, the collectors did not dare to do as chaotic as planet mining and exploration when they landed on the ruins rings.
Whether it is landing or exploring, the collectors maintain the attitude of the collector, rather than exploring the material while acquiring material expansion in the form of roots, so as to avoid the large-scale disintegration of the relics of the Bodu civilization due to their random relationship.
This is not impossible. The ruin ring has not disintegrated yet, not because it has some structural strength, just because its own revolution and star gravity have reached a delicate and fragile balance. Once this balance is broken, a great collapse of continuity will occur.
At that time, everything would fall into the sea of fire of stars.
"There should be more individuals to explore more places in the ruins ring."
Some individual proposals that want to speed up the exploration progress, but such proposals cannot be recognized by all individuals.
"It is not recommended to do this. Increased quality of the ring remains will lead to uneven quality in each section, which will lead to large-scale collapse events. Today's landing exploration is already a very risky behavior."
Although the mass of the individual collector is very light, the accumulation is small and the number of collectors is large. The distribution of multiple collectors in multiple ruin rings will inevitably lead to uneven mass.
It is also not feasible to keep the collectors of each section of the exploration in a relatively uniform distribution. From a macro perspective, this is equivalent to simultaneous force on the ruin ring in multiple directions to achieve balance of force. However, the ruin ring is already very fragile. God knows whether the ruin ring can withstand it. Most collectors tend to be unable to withstand it, so the proposal to continue to increase the exploration individual is not recognized.
The exploration continues, exploring individuals to explore the interior of the ruins ring in groups of two.
After the exploration lasted for a period of time, the collectors noticed one thing, that is, they could not find the corpses of the Bodu civilization. The vacuum environment in space is very conducive to preserving the corpses. The area currently explored in the ruins ring is basically maintained in a vacuum state. After the people of the Bodu civilization die, the remains can be preserved for a long time.
"Is it a spiritual realm? Only they covet the corpses of intelligent creatures that way."
“I think so too.”
If it was an internal struggle of civilization like the Luo people, there was no reason that a corpse would not be left behind. Even if the Luo people's civilization exploded, there would be corpses left behind.
"It's better to explore the ruins and then make a conclusion."
More cautious individuals still maintain a wait-and-see attitude.
The exploration continues.
“There is no way ahead.”
One of the groups of collectors in the exploration stopped their pace, and the collapse of the passage prevented them from moving forward.
"Can you take a detour?"
"I look at the map... No, this is the main road. You can take a detour by blocking the side branches, but if the main road is blocked, you need to run to other main roads far away."
After comparing the map information obtained from other places in the ruins ring, the collector expressed helplessness to his fellow tribes.
“…The designer of this channel has definitely had a problem with his mind.”
"agree."
The main path was blocked, but the exploration still had to continue, so the same tribe proposed.
"It seems that we can only walk a long way. How far is the nearest main road from us?"
"No, there is no need to go that far. We pass through here, change our body into a slender shape, and drill through the collapsed gap."
"But this will deplete biological energy, and the process of our exploration will be shortened."
"It's okay. The nearest main road is 40,000 kilometers away. The consumption of biological energy from a distance from there is more, which is not cost-effective."
"... Then go through."
After the two collectors discussed individually, they decided to go through the collapsed gap.
After changing its own shape, the collector easily drilled into the collapsed gap and continued to move forward in the narrow space.
After moving about a distance of thousands of meters, they stopped again. It was not that they did not want to continue moving forward, but that there was something else behind the collapse that blocked them from moving forward, and this time they didn't even have a gap.
"What's the situation? Why is it a dead end here?"
The collector asked the same tribe next to him in surprise, and the other party was also confused.
“Is it a wrong map?”
The collector who was questioned by his fellow tribes compared the map of the ruins ring.
"No, this is the main road, which directly connects the outside and inside of the ruin ring... Huh? There is a marked thing on the map, let me see..."
“Isolation gate?”
During the re-checking process, the collector accidentally discovered a mark they had ignored before. The mark was marked with symbols and was not introduced, so the collector at that time did not think much about it.
By extracting the symbols on this map separately and comparing them with the information collected so far, we can get the general meaning of this symbol.
This symbol shows that isolation is an isolation gate symbol for dealing with emergencies.
"Isolation? What is Isolation?"
"I don't know, but maybe it's a clue."
Both collectors seemed to know what would be behind the isolation gate.
"That's what it means. Our group gave up the subsequent exploration process and used biological energy to explore the situation behind this isolation gate." One of the individuals said.
Then, the two individuals evolved into meat pieces and combined into one. Through chemical coordination etching, a microscopic tunnel for only more than a dozen cells to pass through was etched on the isolation gate.
The isolation gate is very thick, about 30 meters thick, and the two collectors consumed a lot of biological energy before opening it.
"This is...gas?! There is gas behind the isolation gate!"
As soon as they contacted the isolation gate, the two collectors noticed something was wrong. Due to the damage of the ruin ring, there was not enough gravitational constraint gas to retain. Therefore, the collectors have been exploring that they are all in a vacuum environment.
There is gas behind the isolation gate now, does that mean that there are still people in the Bodu civilization who continue to survive in the ruins?
The two collectors who thought of this immediately used infrared perspective to watch in a dim and dark environment. Ultrasonic waves, electromagnetic waves, etc. detect the waves scattered outwards and scan the environment behind the isolation gate.
