Chapter 504 - 505 Black Hole Companion Star
After receiving the strange radio signal, the collectors first panicked for a while, then calmed down and calmly analyzed the strange radio signal.
"This signal is just regular and does not contain any information."
The signal does not contain any language information, but a simple law of existence. First, three long-frequency waves, then three short-frequency waves, and then three long-frequency waves, which goes back and forth.
The power of the signal is not strong, so the collectors only noticed this series of regular signals after their arrival. historical
"It may be providing coordinates or a distress signal."
"Help?"
"Yes, on the side of the empire, if the Selene space fleet is in distress, some radio bands that are easy to be observed and not easy to block will be used as distress signals. In this regard, the ethnic group and the empire have signed an agreement. If an individual receives a distress signal, they have the obligation to carry out rescue, and in turn, If the empire receives a distress signal from an individual ethnic group, it is also obliged to carry out rescue, a mutual assistance agreement. The collector who put forward the idea explained.
"The empire arrived near the black hole before us?"
"This is an analogy. This series of regular signals is not the same as the distress signals in the protocol, and the empire has no ability to come to the black hole at all."
The collectors take the trouble to explain to their misinant peers.
Although it is not ruled out that regular signals are formed naturally, this possibility is very low. It is more likely that there are man-made objects on that terrestrial planets that send signals all the time.
Artificial objects also mean that they are related to a new civilization that they have never been touched, and the collectors suddenly became excited.
"I propose that we should land on that planet and find the regular signal source. Maybe this will be an opportunity for the ethnic group to discover a new civilization, which is an opportunity not to be missed."
"I agree."
"I agree. It is recommended to assign individuals to go immediately."
Basically, there is no objection from any individual. As soon as the proposal is approved, it is unanimously approved. There is no individual collector who cares about the danger. Many collectors recommend themselves and express their willingness to go - in the face of the interests of the ethnic group, they don't care about their own life and death at all.
Soon, the collectors finalized the candidates, and five collectors were selected as the landing individuals. At the same time, they were also obliged to deliver the observation data of the surface to the other collectors who did not have tens of millions of planets.
"Go to that planet to pay attention to safety and don't waste resources on the ethnic group."
"I understand."
After simply giving the precautions, the five collectors split into the meat mass that was conceiveting the giant organism and fell in the direction of the black hole.
When they descend for a distance, they reverse open their antimatter propulsion. In a strong gamma beam, the speed of their descent begins to slow down and land in a straight line with a uniform deceleration.
The scorching red lotus industry fire wrapped the falling collectors in it, which was the fire caused by atmospheric friction.
"Change the appearance."
The five collectors turned off the anti-matter propulsion, changed their appearance to a soft flat biological body, and used atmospheric resistance to achieve a soft landing.
They are like five towel blankets swept by the strong wind and flying in mid-air, and finally falling to the surface at a relatively slow speed.
"I landed safely. How about you?"
Due to the randomness of the landing site, the five collectors were scattered in different positions.
The reply from another collector was quickly sent back to the radio channel.
"I have no problem. It's just hanging on the rock. It will take some time to come down."
"There is water on this planet. It's really a good place."
"The planet is still in a very early stage. There is no fine sand, there are rocks and water everywhere, and there is no land. Liquid water floods the whole surface of the planet."
"If we had known that there was such a terrestrial planet next to the black hole, we would not have to organize tens of thousands of individuals to carry a large amount of material resources across the scale of five light years. It would be a waste."
For the collectors, as long as there is water, then the planet is a good place and a starting resource star that can grow the population.
"Since it's all safe, let's start searching for the signal source."
"I understand."
The collector whose appearance has transformed into a flat canvas-like organism supports the body by the sharp corners of the edge. Its size has shrunk compared with the time of landing, and the muscle tissue allows it to act like this.
Stepping into half a meter of liquid water, the collectors began to move in the direction of the signal source. They did not mean to converge, or the signal source was a good convergence point.
On the way, the collector observes the environment on the surface of the planet.
This planet is very flat. It is the flattest planet surface that collectors have ever seen. There are no towering mountains. Except for some reef-like rocks that stand sparsely out of the water, there is a vast ocean at a glance.
A world of water and death.
The sky is gray. By the way, the collector also analyzed the atmospheric composition. The proportion of nitrogen is very high, and there is a rare oxygen. and other trace elements are mixed with it.
"A planet like this is defined as a habitable planet on the side of the Selins... Well, can't the signal source be launched from a colonial ship?"
"There is such a possibility, but I prefer to think that it is a signal for the positioning of black holes. After all, there is a black hole next to it. Even a habitable planet is not suitable for living stars. Even we will not choose such a planet with a black hole next to it."
"That's because the ethnic group needs feedback signals to implement sublight speed deceleration. If there is no such thing, it is also possible to collect the resources of this planet for the development of the ethnic group."
"You are really greedy."
"How can ethnic things be called greed? This is a necessary nutrient for the growth of the ethnic group.
Along the way and chatting, the collectors unconsciously walked hundreds of kilometers away and finally saw their destination. In the distance, there was a structure similar to a metal box. It could be judged at a glance that it was a personal creation, which was very obvious.
"I saw the end."
"I saw it, too."
"Then let's get there quickly to complete the meeting."
The collectors of artificial objects are all excited, because this is a confirmed reality of the new civilization, and the technical level is not low, otherwise it is impossible to reach this terrestrial planet next to the black hole.
However, the collectors were not happy for a long time. Something happened on the surface of the earth, and the ground began to tremble violently. The roaring sound shook the air. From the distant horizon, a vague white line could be faintly seen.
