147. Stargate Frontline Base
Duda has long felt that it was very difficult to communicate with these talkative stars.
They seem to never be able to grasp the key points, and they just turn everything out. Any word will lead to off-topic and never get back to the original question. Karami is the most normal among the locals. Many of her compatriots speak in a mess and can only say simple sentences, and they are not next to each other.
This may be because Karami was able to serve as the base commander.
Zhang Tianyu pressed his helmet: "Once there is a problem with the logic ability, what do you ask them to use to make logical judgments?"
"I'm afraid it's not just a matter of logic capabilities." Duda pointed to the front door.
It was a passage entrance made into a large screw. Each surface was very smooth, with clear edges and corners, revealing a rich mechanical style.
“The aesthetics have also changed,” Duda added.
Aesthetics are closely related to the nature of civilization. Taking lunar civilization as an example, although lunar people have mastered the most cutting-edge technologies in all fields known to the earthlings, their buildings and fighter planes are beautiful, smooth, bright and soft in shape. This is a typical representative of energy civilization.
Biochemical stars are not much more outstanding than Earthlings in energy use, but their genetic technology is ahead, which makes them pay more attention to the protection of the natural environment. In two years, the city was quickly swallowed up by forests, which itself shows that there are a large number of secondary forests and afforestation in the city.
"In the past we also liked designs like balls," Karami found everyone's eyes stopped on the huge screw cap. "But now, we prefer rivets, screws, and steam engines. It's strange that we invented the steam engine thousands of years ago, but no one cared about it. It was not until we entered the ground that we found it so cute and beautiful..."
This is the change in the nature of civilization.
"This is……"
Everyone walked to the nut and suddenly found that the black tunnel was not without lights.
It is a black hole in itself.
You can even see the black vortex slightly spinning with your naked eyes.
"What is this!" Duda was surprised.
It looks like a black hole.
"It's our imitation of Star Gate." Karami stretched out her little hand, as if she was stroking the black gate, and her speech speed even slowed down.
"Before the discovery of the Star Gate, our scientists were studying the problem of wormholes traveling in the universe. Because at that time, our radiation utilization of Gorouduominer had reached its peak, and the radiation energy per cubic nanometer was only 2×10 to the minus 6th power of Hughes... Sorry, I should introduce the unit of "Hughes". He is a great scientist born in the 732nd year of the calendar..."
"Talk about this black hole!" Duda unconsciously clenched his fists.
"Okay... Now this black hole is our research result." Karami said. "After passing through it...well, I won't say it anymore, you can try it yourself. But this experience is very interesting. Of course. If you strongly ask, I can tell you too..."
Hoja Denny, who used death as his compass, took the lead in stepping into the black hole and was instantly swallowed by darkness.
Du Da suddenly became excited, as if he had received the toy he had been looking forward to. When he saw Zhang Tianyu hiding behind Song Yun, Feihu looked eager to try. He immediately bounced his legs and jumped into the black hole.
For a moment, Duda felt as if he had flew up. But after a second, his feet were firmly on the ground and his body was suddenly surrounded by a warm feeling. His eyes had not yet adapted to the transition from darkness to light. He couldn't help but rush forward, blocking his way by a thick and cold wall.
It's Hoja-Donny.
Just as Duda adapted to the bright environment in front of him, he saw Feihu jumping out of the black vortex. It was just a glance, and he was once again attracted by the magnificent scene in front of him.
In front of me was a huge deep pit, and three guests were standing on the wall of the pit. Just thought it was three small black dots on the wall.
Two iron railings block Duda's thighs, probably Karami and the others' waists. Looking out from here, the entire deep pit is like a mine channel, and countless dwarves live on the narrow path along the edge of the pit wall. The passage on the pit wall is like an endless jade belt, leading to the underground that Duda cannot see.
Duda gradually retracted his gaze from the opposite tunnel and saw rows of small black holes on the tunnel nearby. From time to time, short locals were in and out.
The outsiders looked up one after another, and the black stone roof was like a night without a starry sky.
"This is our frontier base." Karami walked out of the black hole, came to Duda, and introduced happily, "In the future, we will fight back against the Star Gate, and we will take action from here."
"Why do you need to hollow out the middle?" Duda asked.
"That's the subway tunnel." Karami looked at Duda in confusion, "Do you don't have a subway there? It doesn't matter, the subway will be coming soon, you can have a chance to take a closer look, but I think you can't take it. Because our main city has strict control over the foreign population..."
Duda was used to interrupting Karami without any guilt. He asked, "How many people are there?"
“This is a frontier base with only 300,000 people,” Karami said. “This is the minimum number of people we can keep our city operations in self-sufficiently.”
Just like humans think, Du Da said in his heart that there are a little more people. The first to develop oil fields, China is also close to building a city, and only more than 100,000 can support all social functions.
When the people behind him arrived, Karami took the guests to visit this underground world that was incredible.
The most incredible thing is that the whole city is chaotic. Even people who have no experience in urban management will feel that this is a chaotic place as long as they live in the city.
Which city will build six primary schools in succession and follow three hospitals? However, the food store operates a single type and is scattered among several layers... If a housewife wants to make four dishes and one soup, she has to go to six levels to buy all the ingredients!
Fortunately, they also built elevators. However, there are only two elevators on the ring road with a circumference of more than five kilometers! Is this a scam?
Duda only realized that there were even more scams after entering the elevator.
It is hard for people on earth to imagine that there are only two keys in these two elevators, up and down. Once one of them is pressed, the elevator will move up and down randomly... Yes, it is random!
Then you have to install two buttons to knit yarn!
"How do you let it stop?" Duda asked Karami.
"Well, I don't know this. He will stop anyway." Karami said without any mind.
Duda watched the elevator fall into the bottomless abyss, and saw Karami's expression as if she was natural, and said nothing. Zhang Tianyu said softly: "There is no such thing as the most deceptive here. Only the more deceptive." This sentence definitely reflects the excellent qualities of a scientific worker, because when the elevator was about to stop, it rose up like a rush.
"Why do you have such an expression? Isn't this quite interesting? Oh! Look! The subway is coming!" Karami pointed to the two strong lights below, like searchlights that shot out from the center of the earth.
The guests bowed their heads and saw a huge machine like an earthworm quietly drilling out of the earth's heart. The layers of black iron sheets were nailed with circles of large rivets, which looked extremely rough. And this subway, which was nearly a thousand meters long, did not make more than 30 decibels of noise while moving rapidly.
When the local railway stopped, it did not have the huge inertia that the people on earth imagined, and it seemed to be natural. It was relieved that the gate of the subway was flat with the pit wall passage. The iron gate was separated in the steam, and the entire sub-base suddenly became boiling, and people who had just walked off the subway were everywhere.
"I'm going crazy..." Zhang Tianyu grabbed Duda's arm and felt dizzy.
This phenomenon of primitive craziness and advanced precision made the scientist seed increasingly absurd. Everything he saw seemed extremely strange. He could guess the source of the subway's power, but... "What's the matter with that steam!" Zhang Tianyu grabbed Duda's arm tightly, trying to figure it out.
Duda had no choice but to start translator.
"That? It's not just for the sake of good looks." Karami said proudly, "Don't you think it's very dry here? Everyone is happy to use the waste heat to add a little water vapor!"
Duda felt a little sad. I wonder if it should be translated truthfully to Zhang Tianyu, who looked forward to hope.
"Karami, thank you for taking us to visit your frontier base, but I have something more important to come this time." Duda said to try to make himself look gentle, "We have a spaceship that was hijacked by your people, and I mean it is probably the Highlanders you mentioned," he said.
"It must be sure and it must be not ours. We hate this kind of violence the most." Karami hurriedly cleared it up, "If it were the Highlanders, I don't know if they have fallen to this level. Which clan is it?"
"Uh, this, I don't know."
"This is troublesome." Karami looked serious, as if she was thinking about her own problems. "If it were the Highlanders of the Black Iron Clan, your ship would be hidden."
"What if it's another clan?"
"If it was one of the Three Hammer Clans, then your ship must have been hidden."
Duda felt the Force out of control, and quickly held his breath to let the blood flowing to his head lower. He took a deep breath and said, "How to contact them? We want to have a peace talk."
"You can find their ambassadors here at the main base, but you must first be qualified to enter our main base." Karami said.
"Is this subway to your main base?" Feihu shook his tail gently. This was the first time she had seen the subway, but because she was used to the pipe ball, she didn't think there was anything great about this big guy.
"This is the only means of transportation between you and the main base and us... Hey! You can't go up!" Karami shouted.
There are so many alien visitors!
Huo Jia-Donny relied on his tall figure and rushed out of a crowd in two steps. Duda and Feihu followed closely behind. Although Song Yun and Zhang Tianyu couldn't understand what they were saying, they could understand what they were doing and followed.
The subway door is open, and the soft light inside diffuses onto the tunnel. ()
