Chapter 10: Application of Alien Plants

After two months of space navigation, Hope finally arrived at the asteroid belt where Earth-like planets are being formed.

The asteroid belt here is different from the asteroid belt of gaseous planets that was forming before. In the asteroid belt on the periphery of the gaseous planet, the largest ones are only tens of cubic meters, and basically there are no more than a few hundred cubic meters.

Asteroids exist, and their distribution density is not large, and can even be described as thin.

But this place is a completely different situation, ranging from the outermost small pieces of asteroids to a few cubic meters, dozens of cubic meters, hundreds of cubic meters, and even tens of thousands of cubic meters, and even more

Inside, there are several asteroids as large as satellites in the star system. Of course, they are not regular elliptical stars, but irregular fragments that look like they collided and fused with each other.

The scientists selected the largest asteroid among them. According to calculations, this asteroid has one-twelfth of the gravity of the Earth, which is enough for the Hope to attach to it without randomly drifting due to its weightless state.

,Similarly, the size of this asteroid and the results of gravity calculations show that it is not an iron meteorite. Its main structure is still a rock layer, which makes it possible to excavate it. Otherwise, a whole

Metal or diamond quasars, would you like to dig for them?

Based on the above reasons, this asteroid was chosen as the landing object for the Hope.

However, there are still many things that need to be done before landing. Because of the losses suffered on the desert planet, in the early stage of landing this time, the scientists and technical workers in Hope have built more than ten detectors.

When it flew over the asteroid, it had already dropped more than ten detectors.

Then came a series of detection methods, measuring gravity, calculating its magnetic field, calculating various data, etc. This time, the calculation structure of the scientists did not exceed it, and it was completely consistent with their calculation results. In this way, when flying over the small

On the third day of the planetary body, the Hope began its landing.

There were no accidents during the entire landing process. When the huge hull of the Hope landed safely and smoothly on the asteroid, everyone inside the Hope secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and more people cheered loudly, no matter what.

In any case, this asteroid landing was finally completed successfully.

In the next few days, the initial detection personnel were selected. They were still mainly military personnel, mixed with some researchers, and equipped with emergency landing craft. This team left the Hope.

To carry out preliminary detection on an asteroid, the main purpose is to obtain rock specimens from the asteroid. In addition, it is also necessary to detect the gravitational structure of the asteroid's surface, etc.

This time the exploration operation was still perfect, there were no mistakes, and all plans were successfully completed.

Then came several days of analysis and calculation...

In fact, there are indeed so many wonders in the universe that it is unimaginable, and the same is true for the vastness of the entire universe. However, when it comes to specific things, it seems so cumbersome and boring. The analysis, calculation, simulation, and implementation of each plan are...

It can never be decided by patting one's head on the head, especially when it involves the life and death of more than 120,000 people and the continuation of the entire human civilization, one should be extremely cautious in this regard.

In this way, six days have passed since the Hope landed on the asteroid. Only then did the scientists truly confirm that the asteroid was not dangerous. Of course, spacesuits must be worn. This asteroid can

There is no atmosphere, and when the star's light shines on this side, as long as the field operators leave the Hope, they cannot look directly at the star even if they are wearing spacesuits. Many precautions have been taken by scientists.

Raised it with the experts.

Then, on the seventh day after landing, the first ground excavation team, which had been waiting for a long time, set off. They chose a flat land 1.3 kilometers away from the Hope, where they would build an underground excavation.

Fortifications, this is not about drilling oil wells or anything like that, but about digging thoroughly into the asteroid, and at the same time digging out a huge hole inside to accommodate the lives of more than 120,000 people. This workload can be said to be very heavy.

So huge.

In fact, except for the insiders, no one involved in the operation believed that such a magnificent underground building could be built within three months. Regardless of the level of detail, its sheer size alone is enough to make people despair, and this is still

Working on an extraterrestrial body is not the same as on the earth, and even on the earth, if you want to dig an underground cavity on flat ground that can accommodate more than 120,000 people, it cannot be completed in three months.

However, insiders did not disclose the next plan, but asked the operation team to dig out a hole of suitable size as much as possible, and then dig as deep as possible inside the hole.

On the other hand, when the operation has reached the first stage, that is, a slanted hole about ten meters wide has been excavated, inside the Hope, in a biological laboratory somewhere, Yao Yuan is watching Yifan leading him

Team members are performing operations on a bunch of alien plant bodies.

Yes, Ivan the Whisperer, his genetically modified skin transplant operation was successful. In addition to many scars on his body and face, he has recovered from severe burns. Of course, because of his contribution to the rumination potion,

In addition to his status as a Whisperer, his status has been further enhanced. In terms of qualifications, he is already a famous scientist in biology.

In this asteroid excavation operation, the key to completing the task within three months is the current experiment of Yifan's biological team.

Yes, the scientists' proposal is to use alien plants to dig deep holes. At the same time, the minerals swallowed by the alien plants can also produce a large amount of conductor alloys. This is simply an act of killing two birds with one stone.

"...Well, you are indeed very open-minded."

Yao Yuan recalled that day, when he listened to the excavation conditions described by these scientists, he was simply stunned. In fact, he was even more surprised by the wild imagination of these scientists.

We need to know the phagocytosis mechanism of alien plants, the energy crystals in their bodies, various metal purifications, and the composition of various alloys. These things are completely unexplainable by human technology, but scientists are not idle. As the only knowledge that humans currently have

Humanity's research on alien life forms and alien plants has become more and more profound. Especially when it comes to the use of alien plants, scientists dare to think of anything.

Yao Yuan asked solemnly: "It is true that using alien plants to dig underground cavities can achieve the goal in a very short time, but everyone, you have to know that we have no way to control the devouring of alien plants.

Once it is allowed to let go of its devouring amount, this means that we have to let it grow. Have you ever thought about it? This asteroid has no atmosphere!"

Yao Yuan pointed to the dark space outside the window and said: "Alien plants will not harm us humans, but they can devour anything they come into contact with, including our human space suits. Perhaps in an environment like a desert planet,

We can kill a mature alien plant, but this is an asteroid without an atmosphere. Who is going to inject it with a plant virus? How to kill it?"

When scientists were asked, they gave answers with confidence and whimsy that even made Yao Yuan think that they were not scientists anymore, but a group of dreamers or novelists.

"Indeed, as the major said, alien plants can swallow anything. Metal, plastic, glass, and even ceramics. Everything can be swallowed by them and turned into sand. What's even more terrifying is that they will swallow energy.

, Okay, as the major said, in this vacuum environment, we can't have anyone inject it with the virus, but have you ever thought about it? How about we bury the virus in its body? "

"Bury the virus?" Yao Yuan muttered and repeated, but before he could ask the question, the scientists continued to answer.

"Yes, prepare the virus medicine first. Of course, alien plants are very sensitive to this virus. Once contacted, they will die almost immediately. In this way, it will be impossible to let them dig up, and any packaged virus

All substances will be swallowed up by it, so it is impossible for the virus to be buried in the body, but here, we have an idea..."

"There is one substance that alien plants will never swallow. We have tried it. Even those pure metals or alloy blocks in plants will be swallowed again and then synthesized again in the body. There is only one

Matter, it will be directly wrapped into the body... that is the energy crystal!"

"Yes, energy crystals are the only thing that alien plants will not swallow. They will directly wrap them and fill them into the capsules in the body. Moreover, energy crystals are very stable and their hardness is not high. Major,

We designed a plan to embed a micro robot into a small energy crystal. This micro robot can receive electronic signals from the outside world, and even if the external electronic signals are blocked for various reasons, this micro robot can

The robot can also set a response time, such as three days, five days, etc. Once the time arrives, or the signal arrives, the robot will drill out from the inside of the energy crystal, and then inject the plant virus into the bag, and then,

The entire alien plant will wither!"

"The above is our method of using and preventing alien plants! It will be used as a tool in our hands as humans, integrating many functions such as excavation, collection, energy supply, new craft metal source, etc.!"

"Major, our human's technological level is indeed very low compared to the universe, but! This is not because our human intelligence is poor, it is just because we have not accumulated enough!"
