Chapter 363: Communication and Verification

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation , Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the cosmic void.

A 3-kilometer-long elliptical spaceship is flying rapidly through the void of

space.

However, compared to the vast scale of the universe, this spaceship, traveling at thousands of kilometers per second, appears almost stationary from afar.

5 million kilometers away in the cosmic void, a reconnaissance ship that has just arrived through spatial warp is slowly approaching.

“Red Lotus, activate the reconnaissance equipment and conduct a full scan,”

Tang Rui commanded, looking at the alien spaceship in front of him.

“Okay, Master. Scanning now, please wait.”

The equipment on the reconnaissance ship activated, and countless particles in the microscopic world fluctuated, secretly collecting various data from the alien spaceship.

This method of information collection was slow, but Tang Rui was in no hurry.

He took this time to closely observe the alien spaceship.

He had noticed some damage on the exterior of the alien spaceship through a space telescope before, initially thinking it was a remnant of a battle. However, upon closer inspection, it wasn’t the case.

The damage on the alien spaceship was clearly caused by collisions, with evident scratch marks on the hull.

Such marks wouldn’t be left by an attack.

This raised a question.

Would there need to be close-quarters combat between cosmic warships?

Unlikely.

After Red Lotus completed scanning the alien spaceship, the large screen displayed various parameters of the vessel.

Among these, the most eye-catching was the projection model of the aliens.

They were not humanoid.

They were entirely different beings.

Somewhat resembling octopuses, but not quite, especially with only three tentacles, their asymmetrical limbs were quite peculiar.

Besides the tentacles, these alien beings lacked eyes, with only five holes on their entire body.

It was hard to understand their evolution.

Huh?

Tang Rui was surprised when he saw another piece of data.

“Red Lotus, are you sure the scanning data is accurate?

“Master, according to Red Lotus’s calculations, there is no problem with the scanning data.”

“So, this huge alien spaceship is actually a giant fish tank?

The giant oval-shaped spaceship was filled with water.

The scanning equipment revealed that all the aliens lived in water.

Tang Rui was intrigued by this alien civilization.

Their appearance was one thing, but their environmental adaptation was another.

According to the data on the projection screen, this alien civilization lived underwater.

Yet, the development of mechanical technology by a civilization living underwater was baffling.

While mechanical technology wasn’t unique to humans, its emergence is incredibly challenging under the sea.

Human civilization developed steam engines after millennia of accumulation, which led to the industrial revolution.

Placing humans underwater, even the development of ancient tool-based machinery would have been nearly impossible.

Nevertheless.

Such questions couldn’t be answered by mere speculation.

Tang Rui then focused on the performance parameters of the entire spaceship.

Low-energy atomic shields.

This was the principle behind the alien spaceship’s protective shield, using low-energy atoms to form a shield around the spaceship that absorbed energy attacks like lasers.

The shield would absorb the energy of attacks, causing the particles forming the shield to undergo energy level transitions, absorbing the enemy’s attack.

As long as the attack’s intensity didn’t directly break the shield, the spaceship would remain unharmed.

While it sounded ordinary, the defense was actually quite strong according to the scanning parameters.

However, this wasn’t an issue for Tang Rui, who could easily break through this shield if he wished.

Besides the shield, the other data on the alien spaceship were quite average. “Red Lotus, send over the electromagnetic signals collected by the radio telescope earlier,” Tang Rui said after reviewing the spaceship’s parameters on the screen.

“Okay, Master.”

As Red Lotus transmitted the electromagnetic signals, the alien spaceship began scanning the cosmic void around it.

Unfortunately, with the performance of the alien ship’s detection equipment, it was impossible to scan the reconnaissance ship enhanced through system panel.

Several minutes later.

The alien spaceship stopped scanning the surroundings and began transmitting electromagnetic signals.

Clearly, they were attempting to communicate with Tang Rui.

“Red Lotus, can you translate the content of these signals?

“Master, the data is too scarce for analysis.”

“Then send the same electromagnetic signal back to them.”

“Okay, Master.”

An interesting situation ensued.

Regardless of the electromagnetic signals sent by the alien spaceship, Red

Lotus would send the same signals back.

Alien: Don’t mimic my speech!

Red Lotus: Don’t mimic my speech!

After about half an hour of back and forth, there was silence from the alien spaceship.

Tang Rui wasn’t concerned, knowing the aliens were likely contemplating.

Sure enough.

After about ten minutes of silence, the aliens transmitted electromagnetic signals again.

This time, the signals were interesting because they contained various physical constants.

Don’t ask how Tang Rui knew.

As long as Red Lotus conducted a simple calculation, it was evident that the signals contained information on physical constants.

Red Lotus began translating the alien text into human language after cracking all the data sent by the aliens.

“Red Lotus, ask where they are from and where they are going,” Tang Rui instructed.

“Okay, Master.”

Less than a minute after sending the message, a reply came.

■■Unknown civilization, hello, we are the Atas civilization. We are fleeing because a disaster is about to erupt in the Milky Way, and we must leave.” Tang Rui was stunned by the reply.

He hadn’t expected such an answer, which was completely different from what he had thought.

“Red Lotus, ask for more details about the disaster.

Quickly, a reply came.

“The central black hole in the Milky Way is malfunctioning, releasing information and energy into the galaxy.”

To prove their sincerity, the aliens even sent a massive data packet for Tang Rui to analyze.

“Red Lotus, calculate this data immediately.

“Okay, Master..”
