Interstellar arena

This ability of the alien is a bit like the hibernating animals on the earth. If there is a lack of food, or the environment is too harsh to survive, the alien will enter a dormant state. Moreover, this dormant state is in a state of horniness, and other carnivores construct No animal would be interested in horny xenomorphs without being an existential threat to them.

For human beings, the dormancy ability of aliens is quite remarkable, because when human beings encounter the same environment, they can only wait for death.

In addition, waking up when encountering a slight temperature difference is also very important for the survival and reproduction of the entire alien race. During the long interstellar hibernation, a change in temperature difference means a change in the environment, and a change in the environment means that there is an opportunity to obtain Food, growing race...

As humans learn more about aliens, they become more afraid of aliens. From the perspective of biological evolution, human beings are no match for aliens, no matter in terms of evolution speed and learning ability, or adaptability to the environment. .

If you insist on finding out why humans are stronger than aliens, it is that humans have a high degree of technological civilization, which is the only guard of honor that can fight against aliens.

The main engine compartment is very large, which is the heart of the entire spacecraft. When the cold light turned around in the cabin, the two couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning at the same time. In this huge space of thousands of square meters, it is impossible to see Not even a little bit of metal, because every inch is covered with layers of eggs, even hanging from the ceiling, looking around, the black and white eggs are attached to each other, like a magnificent ink painting .

There are no aliens, only eggs!

The two of them couldn't move their bodies at all, and they would step on the alien eggs if they moved their feet casually. They could only check bit by bit with the lights. There was not a single alien in the huge main engine compartment, but all of them were alien eggs. Huge, appalling, I am afraid that there are at least hundreds of thousands of them.

"This is left by a tribe of aliens." Liu Fei couldn't help saying.

"Alien tribe?" Dr. Wayne was taken aback, this was the first time he had heard this term.

"... Alien Tribe." Liu Fei was stunned for a moment, and said that he had slipped his tongue, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Yes, think about it, there are more than 1 aliens in the engine compartment, and the alien eggs here There are at least hundreds of thousands of them. With their reproductive ability, it is impossible to lay so many eggs. There is only one explanation, that is, a huge tribe of aliens once attacked the spaceship Stan, and they took control of the spaceship. Afterwards, human beings were turned into food, and then they reproduced a large number of offspring, because the engine of the Stein was forcibly shut down, and the aliens did not have a complicated password program, and could not restart the engine. With a few aliens and a large number of eggs, if the remaining aliens can survive, they will form a new tribe..."

"Then, those aliens stayed here to protect these eggs?" Dr. Wayne stared at Liu Fei with wide eyes, and there was a frenzy in his eyes, wishing to swallow Liu Fei in one gulp. Naturally, he didn't know, but this is terrible It is not Liu Fei's research results, but Liu Fei shared information about Xiaoqiang Optical Brain.

"Theoretically yes."

"It must be. I suddenly remembered that when the aliens woke up, they all attacked in the direction of the main engine. Obviously, their purpose was to rush to the main engine compartment to protect the hundreds of thousands of little aliens."

"Yes."

Liu Fei didn't think about this problem. He recalled it a little, and it was indeed what Dr. Wayne said. At that time, the passage had two sides. However, after the alien came out, he ran straight to one side. At first, he thought he was going to attack humans. Now that he thinks about it, When the alien wakes up, the six senses are still very dull, and it is impossible to maintain [-]% consistency. Obviously, they are not for attacking at all, but are eager to rush to the main engine compartment to protect the little alien. Little Alien.

Thinking of the consequences of hundreds of thousands of small aliens being awakened, Liu Fei and Dr. Wayne couldn't help but feel their scalps explode. On this spaceship, small aliens smaller than fists are even more difficult to deal with. Moreover, various data It shows that the little alien is in a state of growing body, and is even more fearless...

……

Through analysis, the two came to another conclusion, that is, aliens cannot carry young aliens for interstellar migration, and even aliens with eggs are not suitable for interstellar migration, otherwise, they would not stay. Numerous alien eggs.

When discussing with Dr. Wayne, Liu Fei had a whim, what would it be like to adopt hundreds of thousands of little aliens who were about to be born?

a few millions……

Hundreds of thousands of small aliens followed behind mightily. According to Li Meng, Dorafeng... Immediately afterwards, Liu Fei's scalp became numb again, because he thought of adopting tadpoles, if all Sticking to him like a tadpole, with hundreds of thousands of small aliens piled up on him, it is estimated that there is a high possibility of being crushed to death.

Of course, Liu Fei can only fantasize, not to mention whether hundreds of thousands of aliens will listen to him is still unknown, even if they listen to him, feeding hundreds of thousands of small aliens is something unimaginable. The scary thing is that the aliens will reproduce when there is food. There are hundreds of thousands of aliens, and it is likely to be millions, tens of millions in a few days or months...

"Are you very hot?" Dr. Wayne, who was looking down at the alien egg, stood up and looked at the beads of sweat rolling on Liu Fei's forehead with a strange expression. It was more than ten degrees below zero.

"Ah... a bit..." Liu Fei wiped the sweat off his forehead in embarrassment, and tried his best to abandon the crazy idea of ​​adopting hundreds of thousands of small aliens.

"Aren't you sick?" Dr. Wayne asked worriedly.

"……No"

Liu Fei took one last look at the alien egg that looked like a majestic landscape painting. His mood was a little depressed, and he strode away from the main engine room.

The fate of these eggs can be imagined, but he can't change anything, the only thing he can do is to avoid it.

……

After returning to the maintenance cabin, Liu Fei immediately threw himself into frantic work. Because of the appearance of the alien egg, Liu Fei suddenly missed the tadpole very much.

In the past four days, Liu Fei has become proficient in the operation of some mechanical instruments from the beginning to the present. What fascinates him most is the multifunctional metal separator. This machine is so amazing that any metal can be thrown into it. , it can separate its components and turn them into pure metal blocks. Similarly, as long as the alloy formula data is input, it can easily smelt the required alloy components.

If this machine gets to the garbage mountain, the whole ghetto will go crazy for it, the price of any broken metal will be doubled, and some rare and rare metals will be separated.

However, Liu Fei ignored the value of this machine. The cost of a multifunctional large metal separator is not inferior to that of a spaceship. This kind of instrument is more used in some laboratories than the Stan. top of the spaceship.

The Stan spacecraft has such advanced instruments because it is Prince Morton’s private spacecraft. A spacecraft with such equipment is equivalent to having a large-scale metallurgical assembly line. For spaceships, it is crucial to the safety. Without strong financial resources or a prominent background, it is almost impossible to purchase such advanced equipment.

With such a device, as long as there are relevant technical personnel, even if it is hit by a meteorite flow, as long as the spacecraft does not disintegrate, the spacecraft can be repaired in a very short time. Of course, Prince Morton never thought that The Stein will have today: the ship has no major problems, but all the people are dead.
