Chapter 563: Crystal Nucleus Research Station
A beam of light lit up above the Allamanda Teleporter, and after the light faded, Hao Ren and his party appeared on the portal platform. Now the planet was at sunset, and the sun was almost completely set, and the last rays of light spread over the ruins of the Golden Capital, and the whole city was shrouded in a dull golden glow.
Vivien looked up at the sky, and she saw an irregular silvery-white glow in the dim sky light that was becoming clearer as the sunlight faded. The scale of the light was slightly smaller than that of the moon on Earth, and the edges were zigzag like mountains, and she looked closely, and saw a layered structure in the silver light: "Ohβthat's the research station?" β
As soon as Lily looked up and saw the moon come out, she reflexively squatted on the ground, and pulled her neck happily and howled: "Whew...... Whew...... Oh...... Why don't you feel it? β
Hao Ren grabbed the second child's ear and pulled her up: "Nonsense! It's not the moon! β
"Actually, I've always wondered how werewolves get excited when they see the moonlight," Izax touched his chin and looked inquisitive, "I didn't feel any special energy in the moonlight, it was just the normal reflection of the sun's rays." β
Vivien shrugged, "God knows what's going on, I've been dealing with werewolves for more than 10,000 years and haven't figured it out. β
At this time, a buzzing sound suddenly came from high in the east sky, and it turned out that the Giant Tortoise Rock had received an order to come down from the track to pick up people. Hao Ren led everyone to board the spaceship, and soon came to the vicinity of the crystalline space facility. Everyone was amazed when they saw this magnificent behemoth up close. Lily tugged at her ears with a look of regret: "I should have followed you to see it!" I didn't even see such a spectacular thing......"
Hao Ren ignored her, just waited for the spacecraft to slowly approach the port of call of the space facility. He already had the structure of the "Crystal City" in his mind. Know that the port of berth is located in the middle of the entire facility. The building is an elaborate assemblage, with a massive control center in its middle. It has a variety of modules for spacecraft docking, material transfer, personnel residence, etc., and around this hub are connected to one crystal dome after another. Those domes are structurally identical containers that serve as the main working units of the research station.
Two of the work units have been activated, but only one of the eldest sons has been "contained". After all, the eldest son is a very troublesome thing, not only is it huge, but it also carries a large number of "impurities" to clean up when it is transported, and when it is transferred, it must ensure that the "lullaby" system is online throughout the process, so it takes some time to deal with.
The firstborn who has been excavated from the Sunset Volcano has been disposed of so far, and has been placed in Lockdown Container One. The other eldest son has not yet been processed due to his entanglement with the Giant Tree of Life.
Hao Ren looked at the crystal connecting bridge of the space docking port that had appeared on the screen. Jean JΓΉ slowed down the ship, then activated an external monitor in the other direction: "Look, that's Sample Two undergoing containment operations. β
Everyone immediately gathered in front of the holographic projection with great interest, and then saw the spectacular construction site in space.
One hundred kilometers from the Giant Tortoise Rock Terrace is the entrance to Lockdown Container 2, where Sample 2 is undergoing its final stages of processing. I saw that the mountain-like eldest son was still fused with the Giant Tree of Life, and the huge rocks and other impurities on this combination had been largely cleaned up. A multitude of glowing glow-like gel-like blovets were burrowing in and out of the tentacles and vines of the assemblage, cleaning up the remaining impurities and scanning the eldest son's entire body. Those glowing clusters of light are the "workers" of the research station, and since Hao Ren doesn't have a large research team to call on, this research facility simply has its own staff.
The residue that is cleaned up is mainly rocks and soil. However, it also contains chemicals emitted by the eldest son during the last 10,000 years of slow physiological activity, as well as some fragments of epidermal shedding, so it also has some retained value. They are sent to another workshop facility on the lower level of the research station for a final decomposition, where useful items are extracted before being burned up in the Tanagus atmosphere.
"The Tree of Life and Sample II have grown together, and they will not be able to separate for a while. So I'm going to stuff this thing into a container," Hao Ren pointed to the second container on the canvas, and the shell-like crystal dome above the container was slowly opening. Revealing the huge space inside, "before putting it in." Sensors and nerve blockers are placed on all of the firstborn's tentacles and the points where it connects to the Living Tree, making it much easier to experiment or something. β
The dome of vessel No. 2 is fully open. The combination of the eldest son and the giant tree of life was slowly pushed into it under a cloud of light. When the entire sample is completely immersed in the inside of the container, a nearly transparent film of light appears in the space between the inner wall of the container and the sample, enveloping the sample into a "cocoon" form, and then a thin, cloud-like substance is injected into it, gradually soaking the eldest son.
After this final step, the crystal dome began to slowly close.
The Giant Tortoise Rock Terrace received a report from the research station: "Container No. 2 is performing a confirmation operation...... The main barrier layer is closed, the neutral medium liquid perfusion is completed, and the signal transmission test is ...... Normal, secondary safety barrier closed, outer dome closed. All safety components are detected, signals are connected to the central control area, and the research station host takes over the container. Containment operation complete. β
Lily listened to the report with a stern expression on her face, and nodded her head with a smile: "Well, the report is confirmed." β
Hao Ren patted her on the head: "You confirm a yarn!" β
Lily patted the back of the seat with her tail: "Because this is very emotional!" β
After observing the containment of the giant container, the Giant Tortoise Rock Terrace landed smoothly at the ship's docking port. Everyone left the spaceship and walked onto a colorful, rainbow-like crystalline long bridge, above which was a nearly transparent barrier, through which you could directly see the brilliant starry sky outside, and the long bridge was surrounded by crystal clear architectural facilities. As soon as Lily saw this glittering scene, she rejoiced: "Ah! This place looks so beautiful! It's much better than Kuiper Station! β
Vivian also touched her chin and commented: "You see how normal this aesthetic is, how can all the equipment assigned to you look like coffins?" β
The corners of Hao Ren's mouth twitched: "It seems that the goddess sister finally has a normal place: her aesthetics are normal when she builds a house." β
The group walked along the crystal bridge, and as they walked, Lily began to secretly move to the side, her golden eyes reflecting the brilliance of excitement. Hao Renda had been staring at this husky from the beginning, and at this time he instantly stopped her: "Lily, what are you doing?" β
Lily's tail exploded suddenly, and Xiao Jump ran back: "I'll go and see if there is a guardrail by the bridge and there is no ......"
Hao Ren rolled his eyes: "Don't dig stones here, I knew you wanted to add two crystals to your treasure of Wang!" β
Lily's ears suddenly softened: "Just knock on a piece?" β
Hao Ren was amused by the appearance of the goods: "Don't make a fuss, this is a new house - and I don't believe you can really knock down a stone from this place, this prison is used to hold the eldest son." β
Vivien gave Lily the idea: "You can go to the glass market when you go home, anyway, you can pick up the stones and go back to look at them, almost ......"
Lily flicked her tail and ignored the two.
When everyone came to the central area, Hao Ren suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I haven't named this research yet." β
As soon as Hao Ren's words fell, everyone around him suddenly stopped in unison, and Vivian and Lily almost said in unison: "Think about it again!" β
Hao Ren touched his hair: "I haven't said it yet, I think it's called ......"
Vivian pressed Hao Ren's mouth with a sincere expression: "Don't make a sound, think with your heart - you think again." β
Hao Ren: "......"
"If he thinks about it again, he can name his daughter Hao Doudou and his cat Roll, how tall and lofty can he come up with," the number of terminals swayed into the air, "Don't get entangled, this research station has a name, the crystal nucleus research stationβit's floating above your heads." β
Hao Ren looked up, and sure enough, there was some kind of standby screen floating on the crystalline dome of the hall, and in the center of the standby screen was the name of this research station. He was greatly surprised: "Why is Sister Raven's ability to come up with a name this time?" β
"Normal yarn," the terminal contacted the host of the research station, and quickly figured out the truth, "Do you think this research station is far away, does it look like an apple core?" β
Hao Ren: "......"
"So its full name is 'Crystal Apple Core Research Station', and Crystal Core is the abbreviation."
Hao Ren: "...... I shouldn't have asked why! β
