Interstellar Mecha Life

Chapter 70

Most of them are said to have low levels of intelligence, similar to wild beasts, and their own aggressiveness is strong, but no matter how strong the attack ability is, they are as small as ants in front of today's powerful and highly technological human alliance.

That's why humans look down on them.

In addition, the total number of Kui is only ten thousand, and its existence is almost negligible compared to humans and other advanced intelligent creatures.So humans no longer pay attention to them.

"Although I am Kui, I was brought up by another race, Arud." Sir said, "At first I thought they were kind, they adopted me and raised me, and the reason why I was wandering was caused by an interstellar accident. Yes. You know, our Kui’s IQ is not high. However, it wasn’t until I came into contact with the time-space attribute life forms that I gradually understood.”

"You ask me what is a time-space attribute life form? My statement will definitely be inconsistent with what you think. However, one day you will believe me and know that what I said is correct."

As he spoke, he pointed to the exposed black arm, asking Xing Tianhe to take a closer look. "This is the space-time attribute life form."

The shuttle descends slowly.

"What?" Jazz raised his head, seeing Xing Tianhe looked at him in a daze, "Are you tired?"

Xing Tianhe shook his head, "It's okay."

Jazz said: "That's good, the journey has just begun. If you are tired now, it will be more painful later. It is better to give up as soon as possible."

Xing Tianhe said coldly: "Don't worry about these, you just need to be responsible for finding them."

"I will."

Hearing his answer, Xing Tianhe stood up and walked to the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows.The shuttle was getting closer and closer to the planet they were seeking to resupply.The fog here is very heavy, and without laser navigation, they may not be able to land safely.

The desolation and desolation on the supply planet is absolutely unimaginable if you have not experienced it yourself.What is even more unimaginable is that humans build tall buildings on such a planet, hoarding a large amount of supplies enough to supply a space battleship battle group, and they are completely managed by an intelligent system.Among the dry rocks and flying sand, in the bitter cold of the dense fog, the building is like a metal palace, and it is like a sharp knife piercing the universe, showing the ambition of mankind.

Such planets are scattered throughout the three galaxies.

Although most of the human planets are peaceful and serene, with singing and dancing, human beings have actually made full preparations for wars that may come at any time.

"Actually, your so-called space-time attribute life forms are just mature products of mutants. And they are still products of failure." Still in the closed interrogation room, Jazz's dry and cold voice echoed in Xing Tianhe's ears: "The real life The body is actually a source of mutagenesis. It can fuse with almost any living body in the known universe and induce changes. It is impossible to judge whether this change is good or bad, and the answer can only be known after fusion. And this kind of The source of mutagenesis was first discovered by the Alud race."

Xing Tianhe didn't find it strange to hear him say that.Arud is the second intelligent race in the Small Magellanic Cloud Galaxy besides humans.Many people even think that they are more intelligent than humans.It's just that the group characteristics of this race are not as strong as humans. They are more independent and selfish, and they will not unite even when the race is in crisis.

"To be precise, the person who adopted me discovered this mutagen. He first used it on Arud, causing changes that Arud, who had been implanted with the mutagen, would see to them The first creature is dependent and awed, and thus controlled by that creature."

This Arud didn't know the true function of the mutagenic source at first, thinking that implanting into all living things would produce this effect.So he captured a lot of creatures of intelligent races, some adults, some juveniles, some with low intelligence like Kui and some with high IQ like humans.

His ambitions are huge: if this mutagen allows him to control other races, especially humans, it means he can dominate the entire galaxy.

But the result let him down.Except for Arud, the mature bodies of most other races could not survive the fusion stage.Relatively speaking, the acceptance of larvae is relatively high.For example, in the race of Kui, the fusion rate of larvae has reached 90.00%.Jazz is one of these hatchlings.

"What about human beings?" Xing Tianhe couldn't help asking.

Jazz glanced at him and said, "Humans have the worst fusion rate. Even larvae can hardly survive the fusion stage. He killed countless people, and he had to admit his failure in the end."

Hearing his casual words, Xing Tianhe suddenly clenched his fists, his face as gloomy as the black sky.He had never heard of these things.

Jazz didn't take it seriously, and continued: "However, even if our Kui's fusion rate is high, he is extremely disappointed. Because the mutagen has different effects on each race. The effect on Arud is not the same. It didn’t appear on us. On the contrary, the source of mutagenesis made me smarter and opened up Kui’s wisdom. Humans are very strange and have no effect at all. Even if the fusion is successful, there is no change. So later he also Instead of arresting people, focus on studying other races."

Xing Tianhe noticed while saying that his arm had changed again, some red fine lines appeared on the black reef, spreading on his arm like a reptile.

"Did you see it? As long as I think about it, this source of mutagenesis will appear." Jazz made two dry laughs with a thin and strange voice. "Actually, I am very grateful for his discovery."

Leaving the supply planet, Jazz has already found his next target.

When he gave the coordinates to Xing Tianhe, the latter checked carefully and found something wrong: "Is this a planet?"

"Correct."

"The space-time lifeform is on the planet?" Xing Tianhe was taken aback.Most of the small space-time life forms are floating in the universe. If it is on a planet, it is very likely that there will be extremely large space-time life forms.That kind of thing is very likely to trigger a new disaster.

The Jazz said: "My method may not be very accurate. There may be several possibilities on the planet. One is that a small space-time life body accidentally breaks in, the other is that a large body builds a nest on the planet, and the third is that the planet Possibly a target for space-time lifeforms."

"What do you mean?"

"Remember Tang Xing?" Jazz said, "Tang Xing is the target."

According to Jazz, the space-time lifeform they contacted is not the product of any race implanted with a mutagenic source, but a newly created thing.When this kind of thing appeared, the Jazz had already escaped from that Arud's control and returned to his own people.He also stole some mutagenic sources, hoping to use this to make their entire race smarter and change the future of the race.

He did succeed.However, the mutagen he brought was not enough, and he couldn't cultivate it himself.So the Jazz tried every means to find the source of the mutagenesis and the news of Aru De.

Finally, hard work paid off, and he found the source of mutagenesis on a human interstellar smuggling ship.That Alud seems to start cooperating with humans.

It is not clear how the specific cooperation will be carried out.All I know is that about 50 years after that, life forms with space-time attributes appeared.

Xing Tianhe couldn't help asking when he heard this: "When did this happen?"

"About 300 years ago." Jazz said lightly, "I was still young at that time."

The Kui race has a very long lifespan.

"According to you, the space-time lifeform is the product of the combination of the mutagen and a certain kind of creature?" Xing Tianhe frowned and thought deeply.

Jazz shook his head and said, "As far as I know, it's not a creature, but an artificially created intermediary. Arud's plan is like this. He can't control other races by direct fusion, but if he will The mutagen first combines with part of Arud's biological tissue to create an intermediate medium under his control, and then uses the medium to fuse other races, so that he can achieve his desired purpose."

Xing Tianhe didn't know anything about these things, hearing what he said was absurd, he just said: "This is also okay?"

"This is also my speculation, but it seems that he has failed."

The time-space life forms wandering in the universe today fully embody the characteristics of being chaotic, purposeless, and uncontrollable.They will not resist human attacks, and they have no obvious purpose.It's like some harmless small animals that ran out of the zoo unintentionally, but although they are not subjectively aggressive, they are highly poisonous and have to be eliminated.

Their time and space properties allow them to travel through the universe, and they can also manipulate other objects to travel.Relying on this kind of innate ability, they floated out of control in outer space, and some special ones formed extremely huge floating objects, possessing the power enough to shake the planet and tear time and space.

Although they have no thoughts, or precisely because they have no thoughts, they are even more dangerous.

"However, the ones we have found so far are all mature ones." Jazz also mentioned, "The mutagenesis source will not combine with the organism by itself, and these intermediate agents cannot appear out of thin air."

What he meant was obvious, that someone had been cultivating these things.

Arud's lifespan is not as long as Kui's. The Arud who fused for the Jazz in the early years may have died long ago.So now, who is going on?

According to regulations, Xing Tianhe sent the coordinates of the destination and the arrangement of the battle plan to the military and the old director Xing respectively, waiting for approval.

Based on my experience over several months, the messages usually come back after one to two hours.So Xing Tianhe gave the coordinates to the driver's cab in advance to let them change the course in advance to save time.

I don't know if it's because of the long-term battle, the team members seem a little tired and not as energetic as usual.Only Daha is still the same as before.

Three hours later, the military was the first to send the news.

"The operation is terminated, return immediately."

Xing Tianhe was taken aback, thinking he had misread.

Soon the old director also issued an order: "Return."

Xing Tianhe was puzzled.He requested a communication from his superiors. After receiving the notification, he first stated the situation and asked the reason for the termination of the operation.

On the screen, the familiar old face looked a little uneasy.

"The planet where the coordinates are located is private property, and the military has no right to conduct military operations on it."

Xing Tianhe protested loudly: "This planet is a desolate planet, and it is definitely not suitable for human habitation. Even if it is used as a supply planet, the conditions are not enough. And... since when did the military care about private property?"

"Captain Xing, please watch your words."

Xing Tianhe was silent for a while, and said: "I ask the superior to reconsider. We can wait for the military to contact everyone and get permission before we act."

"Captain Xing! You have to remember that you are a soldier, and the duty of a soldier is to obey!" The old man in the communication stood up and stopped looking at him, "Come back."

Xing Tianhe was not in his room when he communicated, but in the cab of the shuttle.Basically all the team members gathered here at the moment, heard his report, and also heard the response from the higher-ups.

After the communication was interrupted, Xing Tianhe looked around, obviously asking everyone what they wanted to do.

At this time, Jazz, who had been standing in the corner, suddenly said: "I have a hunch that this time the planet may not be mature, but larvae. We may be able to find the source of mutagenesis."

The target planet is located in the center of the Q area, with a small mass and relatively harsh environment.Its central star is a brown dwarf, whose properties are intermediate between stars and planets, not only small in size and mass, but also extremely low in luminosity.

It is conceivable that the temperature of the target planet is extremely low, and there is no obvious atmosphere.The planet has barely reached the limit of being able to form a circular appearance by its own gravity, but it is not enough to absorb enough gas to form an atmosphere.

After Xing Tianhe and the team members made a decision, they cut off the communication between the shuttle and the military, and came here regardless of the opponent's obstruction.Naturally, before coming, they assessed the planet and formulated a complete battle plan.

The Jazz are under control.

"Why, don't you believe me?" He said, looking at Xing Tianhe who was fully armed and ready to board the combat mecha.

Xing Tianhe glanced at him and said, "Just in case."

Just in case, this is a trap.

They have rich combat experience with space-time attribute life forms, but they have never been in contact with mutants and larvae.The doctor was put on Xing Tianhe's mecha.He was tall, and after entering the small cockpit, he had to bend and curl up, which was extremely uncomfortable.

The shuttle circled the planet a few times and scanned it in all directions.On the surface, there is no trace of any modification.After a deep scan, only a huge deep pothole was found underground near a polar region.Other than that there was nothing suspicious.

"No vital signs." Their shuttles were equipped with state-of-the-art biometric scanning equipment.

"Where's Arud?"

"nor."

Xing Tianhe frowned, and exchanged a glance with Jazz.

"Yorkwin, Michael, Yun Da Vinci and follow me out of the cabin. The others are on standby."
