Xiling Empire

Normally, the core portion of a planet is hot.

Not only is most of the energy in the early stages of the planet's birth confined in the core of the planet. At the same time, in the early stages of planet solidification, the hot molten material generated inside the planet will also be transferred to the core of the planet under the effect of gravity and penetration effects. If the rock is the main body Planet, then the radioactive material that accumulates near the earth's core can usually reach millions of times the surface concentration. In this environment, a highly radioactive earth's core is almost equivalent to a thermal power plant that continues to perform slow nuclear reactions, and this heat cannot be released. , Will eventually heat the core into a hot liquid metal ball: under amazing pressure and temperature, even diamonds will become as soft as butter, and no matter how high the temperature is, the material can only be liquefied and cannot be gasified. .

The above is the normal version of the core.

Some cores are cool-very cold compared to the hot cores. Even a long-lived planet is constantly evolving to its end. The activity of the earth's core will gradually decrease, and the radioactive material will slowly decay to the point where it cannot release heat. The entire planet's stage from youth to middle age is from the surface to the ground. The core is cooled layer by layer, and this type of cooling will be faster when it is far away from the star. When a planet enters old age, the core will become close to the freezing point of ferrous metal, after stripping its crust and mantle You will see a dark red alloy giant ball, which shows the vicissitudes of the years in the desolate space, lonely and cold, and the slowly fading geocentric flame is the twilight candlelight of an old planet.

The above is the core of the literary version.

There are still some cores that take non-mainstream routes. The highly skilled demolition team threw the entire planet ’s core to somewhere, leaving a warm burning rock crust that provides heat and light. Then they were on the planet. In the large hollow in the center, plants and flowers were planted, and then a theme park sign was inserted-this kind of core let us name it tentatively.

"This ... what is his mother?" I was stunned as I looked at the bright underground world and the green earth.

"This ... what's his mother's?" Looking at the giant vines that were slightly moving on the green ground, how many kilometers wide was unknown, lìlìna followed with a stun.

"A smaller planet? Stuck in the core of the earth?" The corner of her sister's mouth was a little jerking. "And the vegetation was thick. They were too huge."

"Maybe it's because of the direction of gravity?" I let the 700 billion yuan slowly fall. "The gravity of the green core below is one thousandth of the surface, and the surrounding mantle almost cancels out the gravitation in each direction."

"Perhaps." Sandora said indiscriminately. I'm afraid she didn't think the flowers and plants growing in the earth's heart were worthy of attention.

It took us a long time to pass through the mantle layer, partly because the 700 billion yuan slowed down the cruising speed and partly because the alloy tunnel was not straight: it led to the center of the earth along a gentle parabola, halfway through Some giant facilities buried deep in the mantle seemed to be bypassed, and radar showed that those giant facilities that were bypassed had extremely high energy responses. Maybe they are Green Star's Phantom Furnace and the like. When I crossed the last layer of the spherical shell barrier, I thought I would enter a sea of ​​fire. Under normal circumstances, the earth ’s heart should be hot, and the hot metal is purgatory, but the sea of ​​fire did appear, but it was behind us: The heart was hollowed out and the core of the earth was gone. Only the inner spherical shell of the earth's core (or the bottom of the mantle) is spreading with burning magma rivers. These magma rivers run on the mantle that has been partially cooled, like the overhanging earth and the rivers and lakes. The mantle in the field of view appears black and red, indicating that their temperature is at least lower than the melting point of iron, and thick liquid rocks and metal streams that still maintain high temperature flow slowly on this inverted ground, like a dazzling fire dragon.

At the position that should have been the core of the earth, there is another scene with extremely strong contrast: there is a sphere with a radius of 1,500 kilometers, as if it is another smaller planet, and its surface is not flowing. Magma and iron flow. There is no burning sea of ​​fire. On the contrary, under the protection of a dim barrier, the 1,500-kilometer-long "Inner Star" is densely covered with a lush green vegetation.

Even densely so that no ground matter is visible at all.

"Ajun, to be honest, I have never seen such a scene for tens of millions of years," even Sandora said with wide eyes and slowly in surprise. "It's ... beautiful. Spectacular, not technically incomprehensible. But the creativity of this project is ... unbelievable."

In the end, she described the magical star in front of her in incredible ways.

700 billion hover slowly on the gravitational equilibrium point, 537 kilometers from the bottom of the mantle, and 200 kilometers from the little green planet below. Here, gravity is zero. This is a wonderful phenomenon. As far as a normal planet is concerned, its gravitation points to the center of the earth, no matter what holes are near the center of the earth, but the instrument shows that after passing through the lowest boundary of the mantle, we have entered a modified gravity environment, part of the gravity comes from the front The small green planet is pointing to the center of the earth, while the other part of gravity is in the mantle layer in all directions. They are facing in the opposite direction: pointing to the surface. This is definitely not formed naturally. Maybe this is some kind of safety device of Green Star. The original builders made the gravity of the earth's center in two directions and formed a sufficiently wide safety zone in the middle to prevent the flowing magma and The molten iron fell on the ecological planet below like a waterfall, and seemed like an invisible cushion, so that the earth-centered planet could be prevented from crashing.

Tavel took a deep breath, released a set of twenty-two probes, and waited quietly for information. It can be seen that even a super scientist like her is a little bit upset at this time. In Sandor's words, perhaps the wonder of this moment can be technically explained, but this creativity and this grandeur The intention of the project is incredible.

"There are two big hoees and no sky." Because of the loss of gravity, she just wandered back and forth in the second half of the unusually wide carriage. She grabbed the window and looked outside. With a forest, I saw this in my dreams when I was a kid. Both floors are inverted ... "

I thought about it, and finally understood it: she is mixing Alice in Wonderland with the journey to the flame mountain of Journey to the West, of course, it may also be that the demon fighter and the third new Tokyo are mixed together ...

This place no longer has the concept of going up and down. The bottom of the mantle is equivalent to the sky for the little green planet, but looking at it from another direction is a burning earth, but out of habit, we still make the front one smaller than the moon. "Inner Star" is considered below. Tavel completed a preliminary assessment of the environment here: "The maximum temperature of the upper mantle layer is only about 3,000 ° C, and the minimum temperature is 700 ° C. It is very uneven, and there may be an energy system that is still regulating the environmental temperature of Green Star. That green core is a medium-density celestial body composed of soil and rocks. The vegetation on the surface is confusing: so many plants show a life response on the device, which is too abnormal. "

"The whole little planet is a living thing?" Sandora showed an expression of interest. "Let's go and see. Tavel, leave your assistant on the gravitational balance point for a while, and continue to observe this geocentric object. I always think it has something to do with the dorms in the mantle. "

A team of scientists opened a temporary working platform on the gravitational balance point. It is a triangular floating island shrouded by a psionic shield. We are riding a 700 billion yuan to descend slowly. The operation process is very careful because Tavel is afraid of We will destroy the little green planet ahead.

"The center of the earth is filled with thousands of degrees of hot air." Tavel points to the star inside the star, and a dim barrier is shrouded in a place more than ten kilometers high. "This barrier protects the ecological circle inside. Your best Turn off the phantom shield of the aircraft first. The barrier outside the target does not seem to have much energy, and the psionic energy may pierce a large hole in it. Theoretically this is the case. "

She wouldn't say anything later, I can guess: the fragile plants on the star in that star will be wiped out in a fire, I'm afraid it won't take a few minutes.

The 700 billion shields were closed, relying only on the armor layer and confined force field to resist the thousands of degrees of high temperature outside: but this is not much for the Empire-made vehicles. Everyone couldn't help getting nervous while crossing the fragile shield. I was ready to launch the ability to plug the loophole once the situation got out of control, but fortunately everything went well and the little green planet was bleak. His shield withstood the test, it just flickered partially.

We landed slowly in a dense virgin jungle, and the 700 billion burning shells charred some plants. But overall. The landing was quite environmentally friendly.

"It's very close to the environment of New Eden IV, and the temperature is slightly higher. The air contains oxygen, but it is not suitable for human habitation: the oxygen content is too low, and the gravity is not enough."

Sandora said as she jumped in place. "There is artificial gravity under the shield, but the intensity of gravity is only a little greater than the surface of the moon. If it is not intentional, the artificial gravity system here needs a major overhaul."

"I hope it's not the latter," muttered Tavel, taking out two sophisticated hexagonal devices, and I felt more and more that she looked like a robot cat, and always pulled out a bunch of high-tech from the portable space. "Changed The two life detectors have the same result. There is only one creature here, which is the planet under our feet: if it is a planet. "

Of course it is the planet. Anyway, I do n’t believe that the core of the earth can shrink away from the mantle for nearly a thousand kilometers, and then it cools down, covered with flowers and grass, and finally has its own rotation period and angle: this is a scan of 700 billion yuan just now. After the conclusion. I feel a bit lucky now. The system composed of Green Star and its "Inner Star" seems to have a set of self-protection devices, ensuring that it is stable after being dragged and moved by the emperor and transferred to a world. Otherwise, this small one The green star must have crashed into the mantle. However, this system is not unexpected. After all, Green Star originally had the ability to sail across the world. Now it is only a super-world engine scrapped. The safety lock prepared for this engine does not have to be scrapped, right?

Weak gravity, luxuriantly lush primitive jungle, huge plants, walking in such a place, we can jump to an altitude of ten meters, just like walking in Alice's dream world, when After walking through a flower that was at least three stories tall, I suddenly realized that what Ding Dang's usual perspective was like.

"I think there is a sense of incongruity here." Sandora did not like the feeling of walking through Lin Yueshu under microgravity, so she floated in the air, and said in a low voice, "There are some things that are not true, ground. There are no problems with these huge vines, but ... wait. "

Sandora suddenly stood still, then a golden halo slowly flowed through her hair. She felt the surrounding environment and nodded. "That's the case, I was negligent."

As she said, she pressed it on a huge shrub at will, and her mental strength only gave a slight shock, and this plant that looked very strong turned into a scattered green light in a blink of an eye.

"It's a quality projection." Tavel reached out to catch these light spots and watched them slowly regroup into a colorful bird--half the size of Pandora. Now Tavel is a quality projection. I have never used this kind of thing. It is difficult to imagine what kind of feeling the body will have, but I have heard of the characteristics of this technology. It can create a body. It is exactly the same image, the image has the entity. It can affect the physical world just like the ordinary body, and can even simulate the physical strength of the body of the body, but the mass projection cannot carry the special ability of the body, such as the large number of scanning components in the body of the Apostle Hill: mass projection is just A handy terminal, tangible. Therefore, when Tavel works with mass projection, she needs to use various external devices (scanners, probes, etc.), and the functions of these devices are already provided by her body. Therefore, she failed to discover the first time. The environment here is abnormal. Still, Sandora discovered that these secrets "are much worse than the projection stability produced by Imperial technology, but are more realistic in visual effects. If you only use conventional senses, you ca n’t tell the truth. But you can find it with any kind of energy radar. These projections are not real: they have a single energy response and no signs of life. "

"That is to say, only these vines under our feet are true, and everything else is an illusion."

The elder sister nodded and said that she didn't like the feeling of fluttering here, but she was tripped by vines, so she floated side by side with Sandora. Levitate forward.

I don't know what came to mind. Climbing to the top of a plant, he shouted loudly: "Is there-a person-? Anyone-a reply-?"

I hurried up and dragged the girl who was convulsed at any time: "What's wrong?"

"Don't you say that. She's not blind." Sandora floated over with a smile. "I felt something had just come out of the vines in the distance and was approaching here."

We stopped in amazement and waited patiently for a while. After a while, a huge cluster of leaves not far away suddenly rustled, then in everyone's surprised eyes, one with pointed ears, on the back The little girl with a hunting bow came out from behind the blade, and her bright light green eyes looked at it in shock.

The little girl is wearing lightweight intimate clothing that is suitable for walking between woodlands. The white shirt is decorated with green patterns on the edges. The clothes ca n’t be made of any material. It ’s a bit close to the leather, but it ’s very soft. The little boots are up, and the boots are still stained with dirt. The girl looks twelve or thirteen years old. She is thin but not thin, with short green hair and a pair of pointed ears protruding from the short hair. Come on. With small and exquisite facial features, fair skin, and similar facial features to the girl in the sleeping cabin we found on the "above", my eyes fell on the hunting bow of the other party-it was obviously a toy, first of all Its volume is completely designed according to the twelve-year-old little girl's figure, and it is estimated that it is not very powerful. Secondly, there is a small grass doll tied under it. How does this thing look like something on a weapon? Of course, the most important feature is the arrow pot that is crossed with the hunting bow. The arrows in the arrow pot are in a mess, and some of the arrows are facing up. I can swear with a knot. This kind of bow and arrow with leather plugs is definitely only provided For children under 15 years of age ...

"Quality projection."

Sandora said in the spiritual link, I know: the little girl in front of me is not true at all.

"Ah! The intruder!"

The little girl looked at us for five or six seconds before suddenly reacting, and then awkwardly took off the small hunting bow on her back, bent the bow with five seconds to build an arrow, and then hurriedly turned the arrow over. We aimed at it for a long time, and then weaved the bow for a long time, and then wept in a crying voice: "Don't move, I'll aim for a while, you wait for a while ..."

Everyone: "..."

"Ding-Dong don't need to worry about his intelligence." Lin Xue lied to his head and whispered.

Then an arrow with a leather stopper's arrow finally broke through and knocked on Lin Xue's forehead with a "a 叽" sound and affixed it. As soon as the young lady's face was stiff, I turned my head and shuddered: I couldn't see, this silly little girl was quite accurate, and her head shot. This is.

"Ah, sorry, I wanted to shoot that man's knee, it missed ..." The panicked voice of the little girl came from the front.

I:"……"

People circle in a circle!

Lin Xueshun pulled out the non-lethal toy arrow on his forehead and threw it back to the little girl, and then walked forward, the little girl stepped back, with a tense expression: "Don't come over! Intruder! Here It is forbidden! No one can come in! You go out, or the chief will be angry! Hurry out ... wow! "

The little girl stepped on the air with a kick ~ www.readwn.com ~ and crawled off the vine and fell down from the vine, sitting on the ground and weeping.

Sandola frowned, her voice filled with helplessness: "Ajun, if anyone uses quality projection just to make a joke for us, that would be really bad."

"No hostility, no danger." Lin Xue said, shaking her head, and then ran forward with her elder sister to help the little girl who was hurt. I felt a little out of step. After thinking about it, she said to Sandora: "Oh, yes, does quality projection hurt?"

"This, in theory, the mass projection will ignore the too strong body sensation" Sandora shrugged. "But the quality projection here uses a different technology than the Empire, then maybe they are not sure, maybe they Integrating the true feelings into the projection, although I think it's a stupid idea. "

After a period of confusion, the older sister managed to appease the messy little girl. Maybe it was some kind of bear child's role in controlling the halo. The little girl was brought to our side with tears in her eyes and looked at us timidly. "Don't you eat people?"

I ... I go! What the **** did we pick up and come back, why are there such strange creatures inside!
