Chapter 500 The First Case Site

To find the original position of the dwarf planet, you can get a straight path through the entry point and the angle of the dwarf planet when it enters the inner ring asteroid belt.

Based on the time difference between the impact of the large meteorite and the impact of the other small meteorite, it can be determined how long the dwarf planet has traveled to reach the inner asteroid belt after being hit by the large meteorite.

It is still the same simple physical formula, speed x time = distance.

And the result from these mathematical calculations is... the sixth track.

"Outer circle meteorite belt?"

At the beginning, I was depressed when I thought I could know the result immediately. Although the outer ring meteorite belt is not as widely distributed as the Kuiper belt, the scale is also very large. It takes more time, energy and resources to learn about the new civilization.

The collectors acted again. After a large number of cosmic creatures were combined into larger transport creatures, they went to the sixth orbit, the outer asteroid belt, in such an energy-saving way.

The two collectors responsible for the resource exploitation of the outer asteroid belt also quickly received tasks from the ethnic group.

"You must carefully check every meteorite. The ethnic group is determined to win this newly discovered civilization."

"In addition, it is allowed to exploit meteorites that are judged to be useless as resources, so that the progress of resource exploitation will not decrease much. Going to other star systems, antimatter giants and star orbits are indispensable biological individuals."

"I understand. We will deal with it."

The two collectors gave feedback to the group that released the task.

One by one, the transport creatures crossed dozens of astronomical units and arrived at the assignment point of the mission one after another. The transport creatures found a meteorite attached to it and began to die. With its death, a large number of internal cosmic creatures drilled out of it, dragging the pulse tail flame and heading for the surrounding meteorites.

From a distance, it seems that the fireworks and firecrackers launched from the second orbit to the asteroid in the sixth orbit exploded, blooming with gorgeous fireworks.

This time, the number of biological individuals participating in the survey is several times more than that on the second orbit. Under the order of the main commander, they acted in an orderly manner, and each meteorite was not allowed to find other traces of the new civilization.

"Is there really an outer ring?"

Looking for a collector who has found nothing for a period of time, he initiated a question in the channel.

"This is the result of the physical model, unless the calculation result is wrong. You know, the probability is very small."

"The dwarf planet collides with the massive meteorite in the sixth orbit and deviates from its orbit. The sixth orbit is the starting point for the orbit of the dwarf planet."

"Don't restrain the consumption of resources. The ethnic group does not lack resources. If you can find that new civilization, the value of the resources consumed will soon be offset."

"I see."

The search continued, and the more unscrupulous squandering resources than before was the great reduction of the search time in the sixth orbit. Obviously, it was larger than the asteroid belt in the second orbit, but the time spent was only two-thirds of the original search time for the second orbit. The collectors invested their money in the search.

Finally, after they checked hundreds of thousands of meteorites in the whole sixth orbit one by one, there was a new discovery in one of them.

This meteorite is very large, with a diameter of more than 20 kilometers. From the surface, except for its large size, it is no different from many other meteorites, but it has another mystery inside.

When the collectors emptied the carbonate material on the outer layer of the meteorite, a metal structure appeared in the vacuum environment of the universe.

This metal structure is very distorted and tends to be spherical. It seems that it has experienced high temperature and pressure and has been twisted like this. However, it can still be vaguely recognized that it is an artificial object.

A large number of tentacles drilled into the metal debris and began to clean up the internal fillings. For tentacles that can achieve molecular finishing, it is not difficult to deal with this kind of thing carefully.

When the metal debris is completely cleaned up, the tentacles scan its structure and then send the data back to the ethnic network.

According to these data, the collectors restored the strongly twisted part of the metal structure and rejoined the broken part, and got the original intact appearance of the metal object.

"It's not like a spaceship. Look, it doesn't even have a propeller."

"Is it possible that this new civilization technology is so advanced that the spacecraft can move in the universe without relying on propulsion?"

"Don't guess everything based on it. I think this wreckage is part of an artificial object. Even if the technology is so advanced that there is no need to use a propeller, there should be a life-sistance system, right? Those people are still wearing space suits to protect themselves.

"But after searching the whole sixth track, except for this thing, no remnants of creation suspected of dry civilization have been found."

"We may think differently. Since the wreckage is distorted by high temperature and high pressure, it means that there was such an environment on the sixth orbit, but we all know that space is a vacuum, and it is not easy to naturally form such an environment."

"Wait, since it is high temperature and high pressure, it means that other metal debris must be the same. Maybe we have mistakenly mistook those twisted metal debris for ordinary meteorites..."

"Damn it! Then stop the resource collection of the sixth track!"

The new instructions were broadcast, and The organisms on missions in the sixth orbital asteroid belt have stopped the exploitation of resources.

According to the material of the metal debris, the collectors quickly locked some meteorites, which are all metal meteorites. The outer layer is attached to a thin layer of non-metallic material, which is a complete solid metal body. The metal material is the same as the metal debris found by the collectors.

There are many of these meteorites, and there are tens of thousands of such asteroids among hundreds of thousands of meteorites.

The mystery is getting bigger and bigger. It can be determined that these tens of thousands of metal meteorites and that metal debris were once a whole man-made object, which is very large, at least at the level of celestial bodies, but now they are fragmented, and only a small piece of debris that can be barely recognized has been found.

The collectors couldn't help but wonder - what exactly happened that caused this situation?

"It seems that high temperature and pressure have squeezed these metal wreckage completely. It is difficult for us to reduce these metal bodies like metal wreckage."

"The clue is broken..."

Naturally, it is impossible for the collectors to be willing to let the ethnic group make a big stride disappear like this. Soon, an individual put forward a new idea.

"No, it's not broken. We still have the obelisk found on the dwarf planet. Deciphering the text on it, we may have new discoveries."

"We need supercomputers, and the construction of other projects will be temporarily slowed down, and we will devote ourselves fully to the construction and implementation of the giant structure."

"I agree."
