Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 793 Storm Ocean
In fact, this is not an ice crevasse, but a canyon made of solid ice.

After walking for a while, Amy suddenly called Yang Yi to stop.

"what happened?"

"This should be an ocean of storms, to be precise, a frozen ocean of storms."

Yang Yi was very puzzled, and looked at Amy not quite understanding.

"Although the outside world didn't know much about the situation of this planet after the Extreme Realm tribe took over, but before that, when we came to the Southern Alpha Galaxy, we conducted a survey on this planet. That's right, Finally, this planet was handed over to the Extreme Realm." Amy paused for a while, and then said, "Because the environment is too harsh to survive, no one named this planet. Even now, there is no The official name. Because it is the parent star of the Extreme Clan, we generally call it the Extreme Star. Obviously, it is an unofficial name. Before this, that is, when we came to the Southern Alpha Galaxy, looking around When they stood on the ground, the pioneers called this planet the Storm Star. This name comes from the Ocean of Storms."

Yang Yi nodded slightly and asked Amy to continue.

"Actually, if it wasn't for the large temperature changes and the extremely long freezing period, this planet is very suitable for us to live and survive. It's very simple, there is a lot of water here, but the storm ocean accounts for two-thirds of the planet's surface area. If the amount of water is used as the standard, this planet is enough to support tens of billions of people. You must know that water is the most precious resource and the first factor in determining whether a planet is suitable for us to live in. If there is not enough water on a planet, Even if the temperature is right, it cannot meet the survival needs of too many people. It can be said that if we had the current technology at that time, we would not abandon this planet, but would carry out environmental modification on it.”

"It's a pity that there was no such advanced technology at that time."

Amy sighed, and said: "That's true, but in that era, when thousands of civilizations came to the Southern Alpha Galaxy one after another, and they all needed a suitable place to live, we obviously had no reason to give up one." A planet with a lot of water."

"What do you mean?"

"After the discovery of this planet, our pioneers, that is, those refugees who opened the way for the large army and came to the Southern Alpha Galaxy, tried to modify the environment of this planet, such as increasing the carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere, locking Part of the heat ensures that even at the aphelion, the temperature is above the freezing point. Of course, the most direct way is to use the technology we have mastered, that is, the original energy technology, to install a powerful energy source to heat the atmosphere and let the planet At no time will the water freeze. Unfortunately, these attempts either failed or were not realized. What is more, one planet will not solve the problem. With the arrival of the army, more star systems are discovered, and There are many planets with suitable environments, so this is no longer our only choice."

"You mean, this is the first planet that can allow us to live after we came to the Southern Alpha galaxy?"

Amy nodded, indicating that's what she meant.

Yang Yi smiled wryly and sighed, this was completely beyond his expectation.

"Of course, this planet is famous for its ocean of storms."

"What do you mean?"

"The ocean of storms is a treasure trove, but it is also the root of the harsh environment. To put it simply, this ocean, which accounts for two-thirds of the planet's surface, reflects a lot of precious sunlight, making it difficult for the temperature to rise. However, the storm The water in the ocean is a priceless treasure." Amy let out a long breath, and said, "As far as I know, when the pioneers came here, they used the most advanced technology at that time to conduct a comprehensive survey of the storm ocean, mainly for the amount of water. Although it is large Some of the information has been lost, but there are enough reasons to believe that the settlement of the Extreme Clan here is likely to be related to the survey results of the pioneers. It’s very simple, everyone believes that only the Extreme Clan can survive here.”

"I'm afraid not necessarily so."

"Of course, there are other reasons. In any case, the extreme tribe is a civilization of the Milky Way Alliance. Although it is weird, it also comes from the Milky Way, so we must give the extreme tribe a place to stay. If it is not that the extreme tribe is too different, we No such arrangement will be made."

"What does it have to do with Ocean of Storms?"

"If we say that we can't survive here, then the Extreme Realm Race is different. Besides, this arrangement may be related to long-term plans."

Yang Yi frowned, and looked at Amy not quite understanding.

"At that time, no one knew whether we could gain a firm foothold in the Southern Alpha galaxy. After all, while discovering planets suitable for us to live in, we also discovered indigenous civilizations, and some indigenous civilizations have mastered very advanced technology and are very powerful. Powerful. Not to mention other civilizations, even we are not fully sure that we can defeat the indigenous civilization. If we are defeated in the war with the indigenous civilization and are forced to leave the Southern Alpha galaxy, then we need a temporary foothold, a A place where we can prepare for another expedition. Obviously, this is the perfect place. Not only does it have water resources that are indispensable for sailing across the star system, but it is also far away from the central area of ​​the Southern Alpha galaxy, and it is very inconspicuous and not known at all. Indigenous civilizations value."

"You mean..."

"That is to say, we need to control this planet, but there is no reason to spend too much resources here. Therefore, handing over this planet to the Extreme Clan is the most ideal choice. At least at that time, the Extreme Clan can survive here Come down. Even if we can’t develop and grow, we will do some necessary infrastructure construction. If one day in the future, we have to go on an expedition again, the construction of the Jijing tribe will be very meaningful.”

"Using the Extreme Realm?"

Amy nodded slightly, and said: "Of course, it's not just for use. In order for the extreme people to survive here, we have also provided necessary help."

"What help?"

"Stormstar was the first solid planet with a suitable environment that we discovered in the southern Alpha system, so it has been our main foothold for the next few decades, and it is precisely the destination of refugees. Until we After the discovery of a second solid planet with a suitable environment, those fleeing spaceships were diverted. However, during the resettlement period of more than 100 years, this place has been undertaking the task of accommodating refugees. Simply put, all the civilizations that escaped They will first be temporarily settled here, and will leave after finding a suitable planet and establishing contact with the local indigenous civilization. After tens of thousands of years of voyage, many spaceships have long been damaged, although some of them have received It was repaired, but there are still many remaining. Besides, the short-distance voyage in the southern Alpha galaxy does not require too many spaceships, so those spaceships that are not worth repairing are abandoned."

Yang Yi was startled secretly, his brows twitched a few times quickly.

"After the resettlement period, the extreme tribes took control of this planet. In order for the extreme tribes to survive here, the pioneers remodeled some abandoned spaceships, mainly to allow the original energy converters on the spaceships to continue to work. Create a survivable area in the severe cold."

"In the Ocean of Storms?"

Amy nodded and said, "To be precise, it's on the bottom of the Ocean of Storms. The extreme tribes are developed from aquatic organisms, and they are born to survive in water."

"This……"

"Of course, this is not all. Although a large number of spaceships have been abandoned here, not many of them can be repaired and continue to be used. The survival of the ethnic group is not to say that it will grow and develop. After the various civilizations settled down one after another, the pioneers returned here and provided some vital technologies to the extreme group, including using the original energy to transform the core of the planet, so as to use geothermal energy Heating the sea water and creating a new world under the ice. It is in this way that the polar race can grow here, and build the sea of ​​storms into the most prosperous city in the southern region. At least when the polar race leaves here, and will Before the parent star was set as a restricted area, City of Storms was the most populous city in the southern region."

"and many more……"

Amy was taken aback for a moment, but she also closed her mouth.

"You said that the City of Storms is located in the Ocean of Storms, and it is very prosperous?"

"Although I have never been to the City of Storms, as far as I know, the City of Storms was a paradise that many people longed for before the Extreme Realm tribe blocked the southern region."

"That is to say, the Jijing tribe at that time had already mastered extremely advanced technology."

"It's not extremely advanced, but it's pretty good."

"Then, why didn't the environment of the Storm Star be modified?"

"This……"

"More importantly, the Extreme Realm tribe is already a second-rate top civilization, and they dominate the southern region. Even if the home planet has extraordinary significance, there is no reason to set it as a restricted area. Looking at it from another perspective, after becoming a second-rate top civilization, the Extreme Realm The Clan should strengthen the status of the home planet, so as to gain the support and trust of more civilizations. If it is not for a special reason, the Extreme Clan has absolutely no reason to leave the home star."

"This……"

"Obviously, this is done to protect a certain secret." Yang Yi glanced at Amy, and said, "And it is very likely to be related to the things left here."

"what?"

"What do you say?"

Amy was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly startled, widened her eyes and said, "Are you talking about those spaceships?"

Yang Yi nodded and said, "Obviously, those spaceships from the Milky Way and built by human scientists must have extraordinary significance."

"The problem is, it was a spaceship built [-] years ago. Even if it is very advanced, it is not as good as it is now."

"Maybe it has nothing to do with science and technology."

"But……"

"Of course, we will soon find out what it is." Yang Yi smiled lightly and said, "If this is a sea of ​​storms, then the destination of our trip is right under our feet."

When Yang Yi said this, Amy understood, but she was also a little worried.
