Chapter 22 Star Furnace Secret Treasure

"Is the UFO incident that year real? Could the luminous object he saw at that time be the alien in front of him?" Li Ming thought to himself, and at the same time many new questions appeared in his mind.

where is he from? What kind of civilization is it? Why come to Earth?

The answers to these questions soon came. The machine in front of him kept sending pieces of information into Li Ming's brain through his fingers touching the disk. A surprising and gratifying discovery soon emerged ...

Vance, the name of this alien life, comes from the [Gemini System] and belongs to the [Technological Civilization] life.

The Gemini system is a star system similar to the solar system. There are countless sun-like stars in our known galaxy. These stars, like the human sun, have planets orbiting around them, but humans develop according to their own civilization. The star that provides light and warmth is called the sun, so the galaxy where it is located is called the solar system.

The Twin System is the name given to stars by the civilization of Vance's planet. Their unique civilization development calls the stars children of light, and there are two stars in their galaxy, so they named it the Twin System.

In the center of the twin system are two stars orbiting each other, and there are other planets on the periphery. Vance's home star is one of these planets.

There is no detailed information about their civilization in the machine, only this general information, but this discovery has already surprised Li Ming!

The other thing is their civilization, technological civilization. The so-called scientific and technological civilization is a civilization that converts and uses resources and energy in a scientific and technological way. This is somewhat similar to human civilization on earth, because human beings’ current civilization also belongs to scientific and technological civilization, but compared with the other party’s technology, it is weak. too much.

The highest life form civilization on Vance's home star has reached the ninth level, which is only one step away from the first-level civilization. The civilization at this stage can already exploit the energy on the home star to the extreme. At the same time, the civilization also has the ability to develop the home star. This is in line with Li Ming’s cognition. If the life civilization reaches the first level, it can develop and use the abilities of other planets in the galaxy. In other words, if the human civilization reaches the first level, then the nine major planets in the solar system will The energy of the planet can be developed and used, but for now, this is out of reach for humans on earth.

The greatest advantage of scientific and technological civilization is to use the power of science and technology to impart energy to a tool or device that can be operated at will. It is a creative civilization that constantly combines the acquired energy with other substances to form items that are beneficial to itself. It may be a weapon, or it may be other supplies, just like the firearms, ammunition, and electronic supplies in human civilization. It's just that the technological products of higher-order civilizations will break through human imagination.

Vance comes from the star of the Gemini system. The star is Vance's home star and is one of the planets in the Gemini system. The name of the star is also based on the basis of its civilization.

According to the information recorded on the machine, Vance's age and cognition can only reach the fifth level of the civilization of his home planet. Just like adults and kindergarten children on Earth, cognition and ability are differentiated by stages.

Vance is an underage child who accidentally broke into the solar system and entered the earth of human civilization while piloting this flying saucer. The flying saucer was damaged and lacked energy. As a result, Vance was unable to escape the gravity of the earth and slowly oxidized to death under the influence of oxygen. .

Of course, Vance has also lived on the earth for a long time. For example, the passages at the top and the strange sandstone rocks are Vance's masterpieces during his lifetime, energy collectors. These devices will enter the ground when the sunlight appears. After the sunlight disappears, Return here and inject the collected light energy into the flying saucer.

Li Ming accidentally blocked the identification hole of the collector with his palm outside just now. He couldn't feel the sunlight, so the collector automatically closed and returned here. The other channels are also similar devices. If other devices return, it means that it is outside. It's already dark. Of course, this light energy collector has precise and powerful sensing capabilities. It will automatically return if it's rainy or sandy.

The light energy absorbed by the collector will enter this space and then be supplied to the flying saucer. After the flying saucer absorbs the energy, the progress bar on the middle screen of the machine will increase slightly. With this accumulation, once the energy is full, the flying saucer can escape the gravity of the earth again and return to space. .

In this no-man's land, there were no humans, and even animals were very rare. It was a perfect hiding place. Unfortunately, Vance died before the energy was fully accumulated.

In addition to energy, there are damaged parts of the flying saucer. After entering the earth, the flying saucer must have suffered varying degrees of damage due to the atmosphere and gravity. However, the damaged parts cannot be replaced on the earth and can only be repaired by yourself. According to Li Ming According to the information perceived, the damage to the flying saucer is not obvious, and the disassembled parts have basically been repaired. However, it is obvious that the biggest problem is still the lack of energy. Even if it is repaired, it will not help.

After finishing the information memorized by the machine, Li Ming took his fingers away from the disc and looked at everything in front of him again, thinking about something quickly in his mind.

It is really sad that this high-level scientific and technological civilization across galaxies fell to the earth like this. Li Ming sighed slightly , " If you leave your home star, everything will be out of control in outer space."

This sentence is more like Li Ming reminding himself that if he really leaves the earth one day, will he end up like this?

This flash of thought disappeared in a flash. Li Ming looked at the energy bar on the middle screen. His eyes suddenly turned as if he had an idea. When he was about to do something, he suddenly stopped, as if he had given up on an idea. .

Although the energy bar is only one-third, after years of accumulation, this one-third also contains a large amount of energy. If it can be absorbed, it will definitely be of great benefit to Li Ming.

"Acquiring this energy can indeed improve the progress of your own civilization, but this flying saucer ... is probably the most advanced aircraft on the earth. It's better to keep it for now. In case you want to leave the earth one day, this is a good one. vehicle."

Thinking like this, Li Ming naturally gave up on absorbing the energy of the flying saucer in order to keep it for future use. His eyes turned slightly and he couldn't help but look at the door.

This door opened from the bottom side of the flying saucer. It was more than one meter high and wide. However, it was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen from the outside. However, Li Ming was still very curious about the high-level alien technological civilization. I didn’t know what kind of advanced technology there was in the flying saucer, so I walked over after looking at it for a while.

Arriving at the door, Li Ming jumped into the spacecraft. Although it looked dark from the outside, once inside, it seemed to become brighter again. There seemed to be a soft light inside, which was not only comfortable for the eyes, but also everything. They can all see it very clearly.

The space inside was not big, only about five or six square feet. As soon as Li Ming entered, he was immediately attracted by some items. There were three things floating in the space inside the flying saucer. These three things were not big, but they seemed to be There is some mysterious force floating in the air, motionless.

The one on the far left is a round black sphere with a very smooth surface and a faint flash of light. It looks very hard, like a metal ball, about the size of a table tennis ball. But if you look closely, this black sphere looks like a bottomless whirlpool black hole. There seems to be something flowing on the smooth surface, which is very strange.

Li Ming turned his eyes and looked at the object in the middle. This object was a flat oval silver-gray object, about the same size as an egg, but not as round as an egg. It was more like a pebble in a mountain river, except that the top There are tiny and faint light spots floating around, like the Milky Way in the night sky, rotating slightly and wonderfully.

With the current technology of earth civilization, it is impossible to explain the function and value of this kind of object. However, while watching, Li Ming seemed to have similar memories in his mind, but he couldn't explain the reason for the moment.

Li Ming couldn't understand or figure it out, so he turned his attention to the object on the far right, which was also the last one. This object was a hexagonal prism sphere, slightly larger in size, about the size of a goose egg. The whole appearance gave people a It has a hard texture, and the convex surface is like a meteor hammer, but it is not round but prismatic, full of mechanical and science fiction feel.

These three things are wonderful and unique, and they are also products of the civilization of Vance's home planet. Li Ming's brain flashed subconsciously, as if he knew them but were unfamiliar. Li Ming was used to this feeling, and it was not difficult to figure it out. Seeing Li Ming raise his right hand, he couldn't help but reach for the first black ball.

As soon as his palm reached the vicinity of the black ball, the object turned and landed above Li Ming's palm, as if they could sense each other. This phenomenon made Li Ming couldn't help but smile, and the next moment, there was a lot of information about this object. It almost matched the memory somewhere in Li Ming's brain. Li Ming's eyes widened slightly, and he suddenly said , " [Star Furnace]!"

Li Ming only had fragments of the memory of the Star Furnace in his mind, but as soon as he got this thing, those fragments were spliced together involuntarily, as if some force automatically combined these fragments, and as soon as he felt the contents, Li Ming He immediately smiled slightly again.

The Star Furnace, a product of high-level technological civilization, can release a light curtain to collect any energy it comes into contact with. The collected energy will be stored in the Star Furnace and form the power of a nebula after reaching a certain volume. In addition, the Star Furnace The furnace's light curtain can also form a light curtain shield according to the user's adjustment, and any attack form with energy will also be absorbed.

In addition, the Star Furnace also has a unique and powerful function, [Refining]. However, this function was not explained in detail in Harris's memory fragments, and Li Ming couldn't understand it for a while.

However, after understanding two of the functions of the Star Furnace, Li Ming was already very excited. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide, stared at the thing in front of him, opened his mouth wide, and said to himself , " Damn, are you so awesome?!"

This kind of thing, not to mention the fourth-order civilization like Li Ming, even the more advanced civilization, is rarely owned by people. Even in Harris's memory, this kind of thing has only been heard of and seen, but has never been owned.

Among most advanced alien civilizations, the most common ones are energy collectors or [Star Pots] and ordinary energy collectors. However, energy collectors can only collect and do not have much storage space. Although Star Pots can store The energy can independently synthesize the power of the nebula, but it does not have the function of a shield, let alone the unknown function of refining. The function of this shield alone is already an extremely rare function.

Li Ming chuckled excitedly and said to himself , " I didn't expect that there would be such an unexpected gain, hahaha ... "

After laughing, Li Ming injected his consciousness into the sphere, just like opening the backpack he carried with him. He could detect the situation inside at once. Under the induction, Li Ming's expression returned to his natural state. The situation in the star furnace was different from that of the sphere. As Li Ming expected, it was empty.

The survival of Vance on the earth must be extremely dependent on energy. It is normal for the star furnace to be exhausted. Moreover, building this energy collection cave also requires energy consumption, not to mention the fact that we have to face the oxygen on the earth that continues to cause damage to life. , it can be said that there are many difficulties.

In any case, if this treasure fell into Li Ming's hands, he would naturally make good use of it. While excited, Li Ming carefully put away the star furnace. At the same time, his expectant eyes immediately turned to the second item. superior.
