Chapter 116 - The Green Light Man's Bribe
"What is this? An unmanned airship?"
On this day, several operators in charge of monitoring spotted a very small round airship, like a flying saucer, not far from the Noah.
"... new human civilization ... gift ... new human civilization ... Gift ..."
The radio device on the round spaceship was broadcasting its location constantly, making it easy for humans to spot it.
It should be something that involves the green light civilization, and the relevant staff quickly presented the relevant report.
...
The meeting room, the crowd felt baffled.
"This should be a drone for transporting goods. Didn't the Green Light people say that in order to make up for the loss of the New Human civilization here, they were willing to gift 0.3 units of 'inverse entropy field polymerization particles' to the humans? They brought the gift over through this drone!"
A councilor suddenly tapped his head and said loudly.
People instantly reacted, the other side did say this matter, everyone is very busy these days, almost gave forget. The sun is about to burst, who cares about the gifts?
In other words, this is the green light people to the new human civilization compensation? This ... is the "inverse entropy field polymerization particles"?
Oliver frowned, he did not know what the so-called "inverse entropy field polymerization particle" is in the end, but thought it was very precious. Because the green light people seem to be very confident that they can buy humans not to attack their ships with this thing ...
Oliver was pondering, suddenly his eyes lit up, it doesn't matter what it is. For humans, the most valuable thing is still that - a small round unmanned spaceship!
It was only about two meters in diameter, and could be said to be very mini. But it was such a small thing that spanned 85 astronomical units in two weeks' time!
What does this tell us?
It flew so fast that its average speed reached 1/30th of the speed of light, 10,000km/s, far beyond the limits of human flying machines!
"Quickly send a robot to transport it back." Oliver immediately clapped his hands.
Humans are qualified rag purchasers ... is not right, this is something that is cheated by skill, can not be said to be picking up rags, do not want for nothing.
Many scientists also thought of the key, have excitedly fist pumping. What does a complete drone mean? It must have a complete engine as well as power facilities, or even a whole set of technology system!
This is not something that can be compared to a broken, mostly unusable flying saucer creation.
The green light people could never imagine that the seemingly "powerful" new human civilization would be excited by a drone for half a day ...
The "powerful" new human civilization is keen on picking up junk?
"Ahem!" Oliver coughed dryly.
Please talk about technology research later, no matter what, we have to get through this life and death crisis first, and then these mad scientists will have the life to research.
In a short time, the automated robots brought back the small drone ship and placed it in a small room on Mars.
Because they still wanted to do thorough research on the drone, the humans didn't want to destroy it, and could only carefully test it for danger.
Since they had learned their lesson, humans were very careful with any unknown objects. Although the probability that the green light people have evil intentions is very low, it is always good to be careful.
It looked like a flying saucer, and its entire diameter was about 2 meters. The transport robot carried it to a closed room, and it was sterilized and tested in various ways. After half a quarter of an hour, a few mice were also driven to the closed room, and will spend some time with this drone.
This sealed room is very thick, and built on the surface of Mars, even if the ship has "anti-matter bombs", will not cause any damage to the Noah.
People are very cautious, although there is some excitement in their hearts, but also do not want to turn over for some inexplicable reason ...
"Well, you can manipulate the robot to open it and see." Oliver said, "What precious gift did the green light people bring us?"
He was also very curious in his heart, what exactly is it that can buy a civilization?
Humans' common sense of the universe was so lacking that they had no idea what the unit of trade between civilizations was. According to basic logic, the "inverse entropy field polymerization particle" that the green light man said should be something very precious ...
Regardless of what this thing is and what it really does, its value among interstellar civilizations should be very high. This information is very important, from now on, if human beings really deal with other civilizations, also counted a little basis, not like a blank sheet of paper.
The middle layer of the small drone, there is a piece of glass cover, under the cover there are a few very obvious raised button, and above the "1, 2, 3" three Arabic numbers!
People were a little surprised, but soon calmed down. Green light people even learned some Chinese, learn Arabic numbers is not surprising. And in the dictionary sequence that people sent over, there were such Arabic numbers.
Mathematics is something that must be common among intelligent civilizations. Now the green light people use the numbers as a note, can only say that the two civilizations are really very similar in the way of logic.
The mechanical arm, under control, lifted the layer of glass cover, revealing these three buttons underneath. In fact, people's hearts still carry a trace of hesitation, because ... drones inside may also be a trap, maybe a virus or a nuclear bomb?
"By definition, they do not need to do this. If they didn't recognize our camouflage plan, putting a trap would only offend us."
"Yes, indeed. ..."
The crowd whispered, theoretically there is not much danger in opening this thing, but who knows? The risk will still be there.
"Open it!" Oliver stared intently at the screen and finally gave the order. In fact, this thing will have to be opened sooner or later, there is no particular hesitation.
"Drop" a light sound, after pressing three buttons, the drone cocked a round lid, inside placed a delicate metal box.
The robot opened the box again and found a round crystal-like substance lying quietly inside. It was about the size of an egg and shone beautifully in the light.
"Is this the ... inverse entropy field polymerization particle?"
The crowd was talking, well, it did look like a crystal, or it was not too much to say that it was special glass. Could this ... thing be the unit of trade between interstellar civilizations?
Oliver also felt Joe's puzzlement, if the crystal is the basic unit of trade, it is too odd, right? With the capacity of the Noah, it's not a problem to make at least a few tens of thousands a day.
Artificial crystals are not difficult, i.e. adding 24% lead oxide to ordinary glass will result in artificial crystals with brightness and transparency similar to natural crystals. Don't other planets have silicon? Or there is no lead? That's impossible. ...
"No, there seems to be something inside!" Just when the crowd was puzzled, a sharp-eyed scientist suddenly shouted.
This shout was so loud that many people immediately stopped discussing and their eyes stared at the screen again.
"Zoom in on the image!"
As the screen slowly zoomed in, Oliver finally got a good look at what was wrapped inside.
It was very small, not even as big as an ant's leg, and I don't know how this scientist could see it.
In this instant, Oliver felt a cold sweat all over his body, his heart was beating "thud", and a voice in his head was screaming like crazy: "This is fucking
"This fucking ... is not the perfect vegetation?!!!"
