Chapter 843: The New Zombie Town
Mulu's report made Hao Ren realize that this incident was unusual. It seemed that a corner of the "dark realm" he had been looking for for a long time had finally surfaced.
Mulu received distress signals from other guardians during meditation. However, this signal came from a place that had theoretically fallen into the dark realm with the founding star. If this signal was not forged, then there is only one answer: the dark realm and
The main universe is connected again.
"I can confirm that the signal is authentic," Mulu said, dispelling Hao Ren's last doubt about the news. "We guardians have special psychic abilities. This was specially designed by our mother. Unless there is another god who is forging it."
, otherwise I’m unlikely to receive a false signal.”
Hao Ren looked serious: "Can you determine the coordinates of the source of the signal? The Gate of Suluen is still where it was back then?"
"The location has changed. It's in a place I don't recognize," Muru said as he took out a black metal device from his arms. "It may be that the big explosion moved the Suluen Gate to other locations in the universe.
, it may be that the galaxy is moving on its own in a mysterious trajectory, and the source of the signal is very unusual. I analyzed the keyword 'Suluen' from a cipher text that only the guardians can read.
Yes. This is the information I recorded, but I don’t know if your device can convert it into a navigation signal."
"My equipment can convert anything. It will take some time at most." Hao Ren nodded and motioned for Lily to take the recording device handed over by Mulu.
The recording device was used by the giants. To Muru, it was about the size of a palm, but if it were thrown to an Earthling, it would be the size of a whole person. Lily obediently took the recorder and held it above her head, looking at it from a distance and following
It's like the coffin has legs...
This husky is really obedient.
Hao Ren and Lily sent the recorder to the Crystal Core Research Station, connected it to the space station mainframe and began to analyze the data inside. He found that the coordinates recorded by Mulu were very vague and had a strange mathematical structure. This was due to the mental
There are bound to be errors when converting signals into machine-readable mathematical coordinates. On the other hand, these giants use a very unique encoding method. The space station host can process these data, it just takes a little time.
When the equipment began to process the data, Hao Ren returned to Muru. The group stood on a hill on the west side of Alamanda and looked at the stretching land. Lily rushed to Mulu like a nimble little monkey.
Lu put a pergola on the top of his long staff and looked into the distance: "Wow - it has completely grown. I remember that the last time I came here, this side of the mountain was still a wasteland."
Hao Ren couldn't hear clearly what Lily was shouting from below, and there was only one question lingering in his mind: If the dog climbed up the tree and escaped like this, would the cat still have a way to survive?
After blowing on the long stick for a while, Lily finally couldn't bear the height anymore, so she turned over and slid down again. Pulling on Hao Ren's sleeve, she jumped up and said, "Landlord, landlord! I saw a city on the other side of the lake! The architectural style doesn't look like this.
Tanagus’s!”
"That's a settlement built by the Zhuomu people. It can't be called a city now, but it's developing very fast," Mulu's booming voice came from above, "There are many new towns like this around Alamanda. There are people every day
Resurrected from the blood pool in the town. Do you want to take a look?"
Before Hao Ren said anything, Elizabeth had already jumped up: "Go and have a look - right, Uncle Ren?"
"You might as well go and have a look," Hao Ren smiled and nodded, "I wonder if I can meet anyone I know."
Under the leadership of Muru, the group arrived at the emerging town near the "Fountain of Origin". Mulu chose to stay outside the town because of his huge size, and Hao Ren and the others went to the town on their own.
Walking in the town, they saw a patchwork of simple houses arranged in a large open space. Some of these houses were taken from the surrounding natural environment, and some looked like simple houses produced by industrialization. Because the entire settlement
It is still expanding rapidly. There are no walls or obvious boundaries around any town. There are only watchtower-like platforms at regular intervals. There are people on duty on top.
All roads and ground in the city are just flat dirt. Only in a few places can you see synthetic materials like plastic sheets. There are basically no more advanced urban facilities everywhere. Road signs are hand-painted.
The wooden boards, the street lamps are made of wooden stakes hanging with oil cans, and the water supply facilities are artificial wells and open ditches. Everything seems primitive and simple, but it is systematically designed with modern thinking planning methods. This
Everywhere in the settlement, people can feel the strange sense of contradiction between civilization and primitiveness, and the mixed industrial simple houses and stone and wood huts magnify this sense of contradiction exponentially. Hao Ren felt like he was
It was like walking into a stage play where time and space were messed up, but he thought that this might be the case for the recovery of civilization under certain circumstances.
A highly civilized ethnic group with advanced technology returns to primitive society to rebuild everything.
However, the Drom people are still somewhat lucky. At least they can get initial supplies: those are the simple industrial products in the towns. Hao Ren can recognize that some of these things are produced by the factories he left on this planet. In addition, there are
Many things may have come from the nearby Tanagus ruins. He saw a pale golden synthetic cladding on the exterior wall of a residence, which was a unique material from the Tanagus ruins.
Residents in the town soon discovered that guests were visiting, and Hao Ren saw several men wearing coarse work clothes approaching him. When they were still far away, Hao Ren suddenly sighed: "
To be honest, this is really the first time I have seen the Drom people - in reality."
Then he took out the data terminal from his pocket, switched twice and transferred Nolan's holographic projection from the spacecraft to this side. Nolan's figure was floating above the data terminal. He was only as tall as 1.5 beans.
, she didn't know why Hao Ren suddenly called her here: "Hao Ren? What's the matter? I'm doing maintenance on my engine group."
"Nolan, come and see your compatriots. This is the new town of Drom. They have entered the real world in large numbers."
Nolan looked around the town through the eyes of the data terminal. After a long time, she replied seemingly irrelevantly: "I don't feel anything. I am just an AI, and I have never lived in the real world from the beginning.
, can they be considered as compatriots?"
The data terminal hummed twice: "I'm still struggling with this."
At this time, several men in work clothes had arrived in front of Hao Ren. They first looked at Yzaks' height and the projection device next to Hao Ren with some surprise, and then tentatively speculated on the identities of these visitors: "Could it be that
Is it... lord?"
The planet Tanagus-Dromu has become Hao Ren's stronghold, and the Zomu people who have rebuilt their homeland on this planet are of course considered its residents. Now that the old social order has completely collapsed and all human beings have been broken up and reorganized,
The earliest of these resurrected people to wake up thought after deliberation that they should accept the authority of the master of this planet, and this was not only their own decision, but also the will of the eldest son Drom conveyed to everyone through spiritual broadcasts.
Due to the eldest son Drom's great influence on this civilization, his wishes are of course very weighty.
The Drom people, who have just woken up from their dream in the virtual world, already know what happened to their home planet. They still find it difficult to understand and accept the disaster, but the reality is finally before their eyes. As a race that is pragmatic and proactive in solving problems, they are not
Instead of complaining in this situation, he chose the safest and most stable way to actively rebuild society. Hao Ren's authority on this planet has been recognized by most people - although he himself doesn't seem to pay much attention to this.
progress, because everything is handled by the AI of the Crystal Core Research Station, the data terminal and the two guardians here.
Hao Ren was stunned for a moment before he remembered what to say. He nodded quickly and tried to sound more reliable: "Oh, it's me. I'm here to take a look at the situation."
As he spoke, he was thinking about what he should explain to these Drom people, because apart from giving a few remote instructions to the AIs here at the beginning, he did not pay much attention to the reconstruction of the planet Tanagus.
, his level of intervention here is not even comparable to that on Planet Irem.
He is probably the planet lord with the lowest sense of presence in the world - if he were a company boss, he would be the kind of person who no one would recognize wherever he went. He would go to the company for a meeting and be kicked out by security because he forgot to bring his name badge...
However, Hao Ren's embarrassment did not last long. An unexpected voice suddenly came from the side: "Hao Ren?"
Then the voice called again: "...Nolan?" (To be continued.)
