There was silence in the cockpit.

"Professor, are you serious?"

Zhao Zijie asked with difficulty.

In the picture, Lu Yongchang nodded seriously.

"certainly."

"There are simple laboratories in the Luan Bird Starship, so I want to see what attracts these jellyfish."

"You probably don't want to be with them all the time, right?"

Zhao Zijie: "..."

"Okay, I'll think of a solution."

His eyes twitched slightly and agreed to Lu Yongchang's request.

"I asked Zero to check the starship." Lu Yongchang said with a serious expression, "The hatch should be open normally."

"For safety reasons, I suggest you use robots to capture jellyfish."

“Zero can provide remote assistance at that time.”

...

Kraken-Mare Sea.

Hurricanes and heavy rainstorms kept rushing towards the seaside with huge waves, slapped on the phoenix starship half of their body submerged in the sea.

In the methane sea, disc-shaped light yellow jellyfish fluctuate with the waves.

Suddenly, a strong light lit up at the top of the starship.

A smog of white mist instantly rose from the light bulb.

That is liquid methane vaporized by the temperature of the light bulb.

A few seconds later, countless light yellow jellyfish lying quietly on the surface of the Luan Bird Starship "rushed" towards the light bulb on the top of the Starship as if crazy.

Due to the structure of the body, they sprint like snails.

The hatch door on the side of the phoenix suddenly opened.

The bounced open hatch threw a large number of slow-moving jellyfish back into the sea of ​​methane.

Two robots slowly walked out of it.

Under the real-time control of zero, the robot walked straight towards the nearest pale yellow jellyfish.

...

“What’s the situation?”

"Why do these jellyfish go to the searchlight?"

Looking at the first perspective of the "fishing team", Zhao Zijie asked a question.

Lu Yongchang, who was on Mars, naturally saw this strange scene.

"Phototaxis?"

He said with a frown.

"Forget it, don't worry about this for now."

"Zero, hurry up and grab one and talk about it."

Zero, who received the command, controlled the robot to quickly walk towards the jellyfish beside him.

Something more surprising happened.

The lagging jellyfish seemed to have noticed the existence of the robot and quickly turned around and rushed towards the two robots!

"zero!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Yongchang couldn't help but suffocate and shouted in a low voice: "Fast speed, they may have wisdom!"

The robot's movements instantly accelerated a little, and he squatted down and grabbed the jellyfish beside him.

Fishing failed.

"Zero, what's the situation?"

Lu Yongchang frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"Professor, it's mucus." Zero responded quickly, "the surfaces of these creatures are very smooth."

As soon as he finished speaking, the jellyfish that was arrested with the mucus on the surface of his body "leaped" and half of his body hung on the first robot!

"zero……"

Before Lu Yongchang could give the second order, one after another, the light yellow jellyfish used their unique skills and rushed towards the robot.

"Alarm, insufficient motivation."

The holographic projection interface in front of him turned red instantly, and the warning sound of zero also sounded.

Seeing that the first robot was about to be damaged under the siege of the "Jellyfish Army", Zero did not wait for Lu Yongchang's instructions and directly controlled another robot to squat down and dragged the fallen robot into the starship.

The next moment, the hatch door closed, blocking the jellyfish's movements.

The whole process took about less than a second.

Lu Yongchang breathed a long sigh and calmed down his violently beating heart.

“Beautiful job, zero.”

...

In order to maintain the biological activity of these jellyfish, this area leading to the hatch is completely closed and consistent with the Titan surface environment.

"I take back my previous judgment."

Lu Yongchang stared at the surveillance footage and whispered: "These indigenous creatures should not have wisdom."

In the picture, several jellyfish that were dragged in were "sweet and willing" to be absorbed on the surface of the robot, and they had no idea where they had come.

"Professor, so what is attracting them?" Gao Yang asked in a low voice.

There are no searchlights on these two robots.

This excludes the previous speculation about phototaxis.

Lu Yongchang raised his eyebrows: "I probably guessed it."

"But, I have to do a small experiment first."

...

In the laboratory.

A light yellow jellyfish was lying quietly on the cold ground.

Perhaps it seems a little "slow" because it leaves the methane sea for a long time.

But as an instrument started, its spirit suddenly became cheered up!

The jellyfish crawled "quickly" towards the opened instrument.

The position of the instrument changes slowly, and the trajectory of the jellyfish also changes.

"It's basically certain."

Lu Yongchang clapped his hands and wrote a line of words on the paper with a pen: "It is similar to phototaxis, but they are heattaxis."

"That instrument is just a heater."

"Compared with the ambient temperature, it is about ten degrees Celsius."

"Zero, next experiment, start adjusting the temperature of the heater."

After dozens of experiments.

Lu Yongchang looked at the jellyfish in the surveillance screen in surprise.

"incredible."

"It's so sensitive to temperature!"

According to the experimental results, these jellyfish can keenly discover objects that exceed 0.1 degrees Celsius in the environment tens of meters away.

This also explains the phenomenon of their adsorption on the surface of starships.

In the eyes of these jellyfish, the starship and extraction device in the working state are as conspicuous as the stove in the snow!

The idea of ​​solving this problem also came to Lu Yongchang's mind.

Just need something with a higher temperature to attract their attention.

After telling Zhao Zijie the solution, Lu Yongchang was once again immersed in the study of alien creatures.
