Chapter 1013: letter

"That's all I know. M"
The chief Patriarch leaned on the chair and said so much that it seemed a bit dry and drank. The sap silently looked at us afterwards. "This is the history of the tree elf, and the secret of this planet."
Sandora went straight to the subject: "What was that thing that empire general handed you over that year? A piece of information? How to extract it?"
"Just recorded in the planet ’s navigation system, the navigator has permission to turn on the system, but we do n’t know how to read it, maybe you have a way. But before that, we must first wake up all the tree spirits, because the general told us at the time that The database is read all at once. After the data is extracted, all the planet's systems will restart, delete everything, and the life support system will stop in the process. "
I remembered the hundreds of millions of dormant cabins in the upper mantle, which was a big project.
"Then let's do it now," Sandola said, and then she looked out the window. The window of the cabin was very narrow. From this position, only a small part of the village, two mushroom tree houses, and a few A tree elf walking through the open space. "These tree elf who are dreaming will have memories of their dream time when they wake up, right?"
"Yes, these new memories that are constantly added are our key technology to delay the dissipation of the soul. The tree elves must continue to receive new information to stimulate them to survive. Such locks are written into our genes." The chief nodded. " Scholars in the clan have studied these and believe that this is due to the special learning mode of the tree elves. "
Sandora nodded. No more speech.
I don't know how the Chief Patriarch communicates with the planet's operating system. She suddenly disappeared from our eyes. After a few minutes, the work of awakening all dormant occupants began. The scientific research team who stayed in the mantle sent a message that the energy flow in all the hive was improved, and some of the dorms were There was a mental reaction for the first time here: the tree elves that had been pulled out of the database were gradually returning to their own bodies. According to the current project speed, it may take several days to complete, but we don't want to wait any longer. I think this project may be limited by the bandwidth of Green Star's internal network and its information processing capabilities. change. But the latter should help the Spirit host: after all, they are all made by the Empire, and mass production bubbles should be able to connect with the Green Star system, right?
After hearing my suggestion, Sandora agreed with it. After the chief prince appeared, we made a request for her to open all the Green Star systems: the interference inside Green Star was still in effect. We haven't found the core of the operation of this last bastion of the old empire.
The old lady agreed very easily: "Of course you can. This is your thing. The control room is in the middle of the mantle. Some tens of thousands of years ago are left on the oasis. They are prepared for special situations, but I'm afraid I can't follow. I am a finite-mass projection and cannot leave the oasis, and you will meet my ontology at the end. "
Everyone got up and set off, but before saying goodbye to the old lady, lìlìna suddenly looked outside curiously. In the distance, the huge green mountains are slowly undulating at a speed that is almost invisible to the naked eye. The huge vines lingering on the entire oasis are also the only real creatures that exist on this star.
"What the is that? I have observed that it engulfed the entire planet. All vines are on the same plant." Lìlìna asked. "The response to life is strong, but it seems to be very old."
"That's not a vine, it's a tree. It just had to change its shape in order to survive in the center of the earth. It has a faint flash of light on the face of the chief of our mother tree." There are many mother trees in the hometown of the tree elves. It was the beginning of Genesis. All the plants planted by God were born from the pods of the mother tree. When we left our hometown ... Uh, we can only take one mother tree with us, It has been growing for tens of thousands of years and is too old ... and we have not been able to collect its seeds. It seems that after leaving the home world, the mother tree has lost its ability to reproduce. "
I was stunned. I used to think that the green pheasant said that the thing he picked from the tree was not credible. It was just that the "plot" set in this dream had never imagined that this turned out to be true. The tree elf actually came from the tree. Grow out?
This doesn't make sense! They are just babies, not energy life, not even divine creatures. How can a plant grow higher animals like tree spirits? Darwin should be able to dig a hole and bury himself alive here!
But lìlìna showed a thoughtful look, and after a moment dragged my corner of clothing: "Boss, it is true, this thing is a little divine, but it is too weak, I do n’t really feel it The birth of this race is really interesting. Their mother tree is from the world. M "
"What's the problem?" The chief Patriarch whispered to us and couldn't help asking, this could show that the last family members left by these old empires really didn't get in touch with the empire too long. The horror style of the empire, the old-fashioned dependents who stayed there (especially those who have survived from the old empire era) can't dare to interrupt the emperor. Although the imperial code does not care about this, it can be deterrent. Do you dare to make a loud noise while standing in front of two Cybertrons?
"No, nothing, take us to see those aircraft."
I was thinking about driving 700 billion yuan to operate the core, but I heard that Green Star ’s security system has long failed, and the control area can only identify the vehicles that have been registered. I am afraid that 700 billion yuan will be hit in the past: The security sentry cannon cannot recognize new faces, even if it has the recognition algorithm common to the old empire.
On the oasis are several transport aircraft that are no longer bright. Although the Empire's creations can often be used normally even tens of thousands of years later, they are still fresh. But these are in the completely enclosed ruins. These are obviously on the oasis. If the storage conditions are not met, they are parked directly in a large forest that is isolated from humans. All the tree elves can do is build a few hangars that are seriously substandard. Because no one will maintain it. These aircraft seemed to be in a daunting state, but fortunately the system was still normal, Sandora was tugging in the power core for a while, and the transport aircraft started normally-a group of power redundancy modules failed, but she was eaten.
Green Star is not a real planet warship, but it is not a space fortress either-it lacks more weapons than the former, and it has less defense than the latter. Green Star is more like a temporary patchwork of four, the last one in the end of the old empire. The creation looks rough and lacks planning everywhere. The chief patriarch said that the last part of the transformation was carried out by the imperial engineer himself (in addition, this thing has been completely transformed for two years!), Which is even more incredible, only that disaster is coming I'm afraid that nothing is too late. The old empire general who ordered Green Star to set sail on that day could only hurriedly stuff the things at hand into this planet that didn't know how to classify. Urged it to retreat immediately. So when we found a command center in the mantle that was extremely unreasonable, but also relied on a set of temporarily added energy furnaces to provide energy, it seemed nothing strange.
Green Star's control center is located in the northern hemisphere. At the middle of the mantle layer, a thousands of kilometers long tunnel extending from the center of the earth is the only way to the control center.
The design and current state of the control center are sighing. It is located in a hexagonal columnar cavity enclosed by an interstellar alloy armor plate. It is a gray-black obelisk independent building suspended in the cavity by anti-gravity equipment. 〖Central〗 Central, only about one kilometer side length, there are several half kilometers long beam around the building base and the data terminal on the cavity. This is a very common generic interface. At a glance, Sandora saw that this thing was directly reconstructed with a planetary ground command center. I was afraid that the last batch of engineers at that time had no time to make a new starship core, and could only know the command center on which colony star. The whole is plugged in. The general interface bandwidth of the ground command center is limited, so most of the operating modules of Green Star rely on the automatic operation of local equipment. This control center obviously also lacks the necessary maintenance. After working continuously for tens of thousands of years, part of its interface beam has been intermittent, and the tree elves have not been able to learn how to repair their bridges. The gate to the control hub has been opened. We found a small port of call next to its base. The port's automatic response facility failed. Sandora had to use a more intense approach to landing-I mean, she insisted that it would land safely before hitting it.
"I bet that the tree elves have never used these transport planes, and they don't know that the transport plane should land on the third apron." Sandora clawed open the door of the transport plane that could not be opened due to malfunction, mumbled. Whispered.
I helped my sister and Lin Xue down. Qian Qian jumped to the ground before this, the public gravity of the people here was still normal. It feels good to be down-to-earth, I ca n’t help but jump around in the same place:
No way, they started to transform the planet after the war, and the emperor was blown out of the original world by half of the transformation project. How much time can I learn in the middle? -And at the time there was no military command in the old empire. Eighty percent of the emperors were too lazy to teach their vassal races how to master phantoms. "
Sandora quickly found the entrance to the control center, which is located on a corner of the obelisk. The entrance is not far from a working transmission device. All transmission devices in the entire center have been locked to the only route, and there is no choice Through this, we arrived at the Green Star's control hall-or the observation hall of the pilots.
The spacious rotunda was brightly lit, and finally I saw the familiar Empire equipment. The equipment here looked good. Although the tree elves didn't know how to repair them, at least they knew how to clean these consoles. A dozen pilots in light green uniforms were lined up in front of the transmitter: a bunch of old ladies and old ladies.
Even though the tree elves have a long life, most of these navigators are not young when they leave, and they cannot stay in the dormant cabin during the journey, and work in the normal time flow for a long time, let these navigators one by one Drowsiness
I recognized one of them at a glance, a kind-faced old lady. We just met on the Oasis Star just now: the big patriarch. She is not wearing an old-fashioned coarse robe, but a clean aerospace uniform, wearing a cross of green leaves and vines on her chest, and she bows to us, but she has not performed the empire's military salute: they have not The days when I had the habit of being an empire's dependents were taken on a journey. Tens of thousands of years have passed. I'm afraid I have long forgotten what Emperor Ritual looks like.
"There are more than a hundred pilots in total, and most of them are dormant. Every shift, there are only fifteen pilots who stay awake." The chief chief briefly introduced the status of the pilot team. At that time, an old man with gray hair suddenly came over trembling, he looked at us with a curious expression on his face, and then exclaimed, "Oh, I finally saw you again. We waited for a long time ... I ca n’t see what ’s going on outside, just waiting in this room ... Keke ... Is the mission over? When can the spacecraft stop, I haven't seen the sun for a long time ... "
A voice suddenly interrupted his awkward words, another pilot: "Senior. You need to rest, let us here."
The old man nodded and turned back to his place. The patriarch explained to us: "This is the oldest elder of the tree elf. He was our leader. When the planet set sail, he was the first generation ship. Long, but now the captain and leader have been replaced with younger pilots. The elders are still in the pilot's team, but they are no longer responsible for specific matters. "
The old man who just sat down suddenly remembered something. Shouted from a distance: "Remember, wait until everyone wakes up and then open the database! The general told me, don't make a mistake! The general will come back to fetch his stuff! Who are these strangers?"
The old man seemed a little confused, and soon he forgot our identity. He even asked people around why he was here. The other pilots had no choice but to take the first captain away from here. The chief said in a low voice: "Long Occasionally, the person is not very sober. He took someone to observe the working and control principles of No. 4 furnace three thousand years ago. He came back with severe radiation sickness. After that, he was dismissed from all positions, but we must let him come. Control room, he will come here as soon as time is up, no one can stop it. But he can still take it out when he is not awake. After all, it is not in line with the norm for him to stay here. "
Lìlìna touched my arm: "Boss. I will study a treatment plan, but the effect may not be great. He is too old, even if it gives eternal life a little too late."
From the terminal in the lobby, you can check the current operation of Green Star, as well as the activation progress of the life support systems of the mantle. The operation of the planet is not optimistic. Many equipment have been damaged. These urgently assembled things are running normally. Million years is already a miracle. If it is not found in time, I am afraid that it will be a few hundred years at most, its energy channeling will be disordered, and then it will endanger the life support system. We also found the database for recording key information. It is embedded in the operating system of Green Star and co-exists with the planet. After opening this database, Green Star will enter the standby state and the engine will stop pushing (of course, the engine is early) (It has been scrapped), the life support system is shut down, and all weapons and defense systems are offline. Fortunately, the geocentric "oasis" system is independently powered, otherwise the latter must be burned to ashes by the mantle.
The three production hosts supported from Shadow City arrived at the job in a few minutes. They found the main room of Green Star. Most of the computing cores manufactured by the old empire had interfaces to work in parallel with other similar devices. It saves us a lot of trouble. After the three hosts are mounted in the Green Star computer room, the activation speed of the dormant cabin has been increased significantly by many times—yes, amazing speed. It could take two or three days to activate all of them. After playing, one third was activated in just half an hour!
It seems that the bandwidth is not as restrictive for this work as previously thought.
Of course, what I'm talking about here is just activation, that is, refilling the spirit of the tree elves from the database into the dormant cabin, and at the same time detach the dormant cabin from the overall survival system of Green Star, and let them rely on their own energy for follow-up. Operation (wake, restart the soul), this follow-up operation may take several days, after all, the population here is billions.
After the spirits of the elves have entered the dormant cabin, the Green Star core database can be opened. This is very fast, and it is expected to take an hour.
The virtual world formed by the mass projection on the Oasis Star automatically entered the shutdown process when the number of dormant cabin activations reached 50%. From the monitoring, we watched it all. The forest and grassland gradually lost color, large and small. The village shook into a two-dimensional background picture. The "village people" had disappeared before this (maybe "offline" for this virtual world?), They were first sent back to the database, and then refilled into it.
In the end, the forest vegetation that had been seriously deficient began to completely disappear, and soon, the lush oasis faded its camouflage.
It turned into a lonely planet with a radius of 1,500 kilometers and its surface covered with tan rocks and soil. The only thing left on the planet was the "mother tree" of the tree elves covering 70% of the planet. On the ground, the vines are grayish green overall.
I can't see it as a "tree" at all.
"I didn't expect it to be so old ..."
The patriarch stayed beside us, and kept silent during the whole process. Only then did he break the silence. "Without the mother tree, the tree elves cannot reproduce. During the voyage, we can still rely on the sleeping cabin to save the race, but ... "
"It doesn't matter ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I have a solution."
I smiled mildly, revealing the peace of mind of the other person, and then pulled out the jingle that was sleeping with a button from the jacket's pocket. "She will let you have a new mother tree."
The chief's eyes looked surprised: "Did you plant her?"
I:"……"
You don't have to understand it that way!
The dormant cabin that has just been activated cannot be opened immediately. The living things inside have been sleeping for too long. The dormant cabin needs time to let the sleepers inside reconnect with the soul. But now the dormant cabin is working with its own backup energy. Has been separated from the Green Star overall system, no longer affects our operation of the database, so these dormant cabins were transferred to the engineering team for processing. At this time, Sandora could not wait for the underground order to open the database. As the main systems of Green Star were shut down one by one, this one-time database also revealed to us that it has kept secrets for tens of thousands of years.
It turned out to be a letter from a sender we never thought of.
Imperial Emperor, Harlan.
