4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

The dark sky, the icy air ... and the ground with a lot of metal debris.

The star wanderer is slowly flying in such a place, observing the world.

So, go there first and take a look.

Seeing that there was a pile of hills in front, the star wanderer flew past.

This hill is also made up of a lot of debris, but there are many relatively complete debris here, so you can see their original appearance.

The Starwalker reached out his tentacles and grabbed a metal structure on the hill. There was only half of this thing. It can be seen that it was a side of a mechanical structure.

In fact, most of the metal debris here is the wreckage of this mechanical structure, Lin feels that they look much like the mechanical structures created by Catherine.

Moreover, their number is very large. On the ground here, and the hill up to a hundred meters in height are completely composed of the remains of these structures.

Although this looks like the effect of the war, Lin has a feeling ... they have not actually experienced any major wars. This is more like a "junkyard" than the battlefield. The mechanical metal here is abandoned. thing.

The wind occasionally blows over this waste-filled plain, which will raise a lot of dust.

When Lin was thinking, the sky became darker and darker. Although the sky here was originally dark, she could still see some light.

But now, this light is no longer visible. It seems that the sky is completely covered by something, just like a cloud layer, but Lin thinks it is not a cloud layer.

When the sky became completely dark, here also became colder, and Lynn said that the air and temperature here are not suitable for life.

But they originally lived in such a world, so they may have adapted to the environment here.

After all, this place is not completely without living resources, the biggest question is ... How did you get here?

'Wow ...'

Just as Lin thought, the sky covered by darkness made a burst of noise, like it was raining, and countless small things scattered from the sky.

These small things ... Although it is not a raindrop, it seems that it cannot be said that it is not rain.

Because it contains a lot of debris, Lin found that the spilled things contained liquid, as well as a lot of debris, and a lot of ... microorganisms.

The types of these microorganisms are also very diverse, including multi-celled organisms and single-celled organisms. They fly to the ground along with the dust from the sky, and also cover the surface of the star wanderers.

Lin carefully studied the types of these microbes. The microbes here have some similar types to the microbes in the nuclear protector.

This shows that there is a connection here and there.

Lynn feels ... there is such a possibility.

'Boom!'

Suddenly, Lin heard a ... relatively loud voice, because it has always been quiet here, and a slightly louder voice feels quite 'novel'.

I saw something under the hill pile not far ahead.

This thing is three meters tall and about five meters long. It looks like a mechanical structure with six limbs, almost the same shape as Se.

This is the same as the structure that Se used to ride. Is it possible that ... there is still a living Se?

After the structure climbed out, the same sound also sounded around it. I saw a large number of structures drilled out of the metal debris covering the ground and crawled slowly on the ground.

They seem to have originally lived underground here, and they came out when the sky was "raining". Perhaps they are waiting for the sky to drop a huge amount of microorganisms, and then collect these "rainwater" containing microorganisms to take back as food.

However, Lin seemed to guess wrong.

These structures crawl slowly on the ground. They occasionally raise their heads to look at them, but when they see the huge star-walker floating in the sky, they have no special response, but continue to crawl slowly forward. Moving.

It's strange ... It doesn't make sense to see such a large star-walker, and it will not respond unless ...

The Star Walker flew a little lower, stretched out his tentacles under him, and grabbed a structure on the ground.

At the moment of being caught, it suddenly struggled frantically, scratching the tentacles of the star wanderer with sharp metal claws.

The Star Traveler ignored its attack and extended more tentacles to disassemble it bit by bit. When Lyn disassembled this structure into ordinary metal parts, she found that it was ... …empty.

There is no operation in it, not even the part of the 'cockpit'. This structure is a purely automatic machine.

So they don't have any reaction to the star wanderer, but there are so many automatic machines here, then maybe there is a continuous manufacture of them.

But what is the purpose of making them ...

Just when Lin was thinking, suddenly found that there was also a sound from another place. On the ground hundreds of meters away from this group of structures, the metal debris there was also turned over, and there were also a lot of The structure is drilled from the inside.

These structures are different from those originally seen. They have only four limbs and are only about two meters tall. Although they are smaller, the number is very large, about three times the number of the original six-limb structure.

After they got out, they just looked at each other face to face. At the moment they saw each other, they stopped moving and stared at each other.

This process ... lasted tens of seconds.

Then they suddenly rushed towards each other frantically!The distance of hundreds of meters between the two sides disappeared in a short time, the large and small structures collided together, and they simultaneously attacked each other with their own weapons.

Their weapons include claws, mouths, and tails. Structures are basically thorns, bites, and collisions. They are not equipped with other weapons.

During their battle, more structures were drilled out of the ground and joined the battle.

This is a large-scale battle, and these structures are all mixed and attacking frantically, but their attack methods are very limited, and for both sides, the other party's defense is too strong.

So it lasted for a long time, and the number of their "deaths and injuries" was quite small, and the battle continued for a long time ... a long time ...

... In this way, several pom-poms have passed.

These structures are still fighting on the ground, and the sound of their impact continues to echo. Those structures that were damaged in the battle are still twitching on the ground, and the movements of the structures that are still fighting are also moving. It became slow.

Continued wear and tear makes them dull, and there are no new structures to join the battle.

Lynn estimated that there would be a few days and nights before they would end this battle ...

This battle does not seem to have any meaning, but they should always have some special purpose. The maker of these things is obviously hidden under the ground.

Before the end of their battle, Lin first investigated ... the place where they got out.

Starwalker's tentacles opened a lot of metal debris and reached deep into the underground to explore the contents ...

It seems that these metal debris are buried quite deep.

The depth of these metal debris is a higher temperature space than the coldness of the ground.

And inside it, there are more microorganisms, and they seem to like the gap-filled space here.

There are a lot of metal fragments accumulated here, buried until tens of meters deep underground, Lin discovered something that is not debris.

It seems ... This is an underground structure. This structure is very large, and it is difficult to say what shape it is. Lin cut off the roots of the Starwalker's tentacles and let it explore underground as a separate worm-shaped arm.

Soon, it found the entrance of the building. The entrance was a circular door structure, and it was tightly closed, which made Lin feel a bit like the structure of Atlan's refuge.

Are those terrors that make structures hidden inside?

The worm penetrated the entrance door and drilled in. The moment she entered, Lynn saw a spacious passageway.

Sure enough, it was like a refuge, but the channel was covered with metal parts on both sides, and there were lights on the top. Following the channel, the worm slowly crawled into the depths of the building.

Occasionally, rooms will be found on both sides of the passage, but these rooms are filled with a large number of structural parts.

Unlike the debris on the outside, the parts here are complete and should be easily assembled into a structure, in addition to the energy room and the like.

Everything here is different from the outside. It seems to be kept intact and clean. Lin found that there seems to be no living room here, but everything here is constantly working.

'Boom ...'

A burst of noise rang in front of Lynn, which seemed to be a place that could be called an assembly room.

There is a constantly running thing called a “conveyor belt”. Many parts are put on the conveyor belt and transported from other places.

A large number of robotic arms are constantly moving on the conveyor belt. They assemble one piece after another, and those assembled parts are sent to other places along the conveyor belt.

It seems that everything here works automatically ... the outside structures should be assembled here. Although the machinery on the conveyor belt is only a part, it can be seen how they are assembled.

Next, Lin continued to explore other places. In general, this is a 'factory' that continuously assembles structures.

Lin felt that there should be sur here, but there is no trace of sur, whether it is bones or alive, but some records of them left ...
