No matter what happened when the otherworldlings came to Earth from the Plane of Dreams more than 10,000 years ago, they had forgotten their homeland and everything in the past. The same was true for the sirens. Hao Ren could imagine the scene in this city: Nasaton fell through a huge spatial rift to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean and took root in this flat deep sea. The sirens woke up in the "strange" starship city, ignorant and deeply confused about everything about themselves. They did not know who built the city and how it was built, and they did not know the real function of the city. They only knew that they woke up here and lived there. Today, their greatest achievement was to master the operation of the city's life-support system and part of the defense system, and how to maintain them. They knew nothing about the navigation, flight, and navigation database of the starship city.
The reason was simple. These systems involved the core and were unprecedentedly complex, far from those simple devices that could be operated by pulling a few valves and buttons. The sirens did not know the text on the system.
But Hao Ren firmly believed that the ancient operating system must have recorded the information of the sirens' home planet.
"This is a colonial ship, of course, it could also be an escape ship. Anyway, looking at the scale, it is definitely not used for sightseeing in the star system." Hao Ren pointed to the magnificent facilities around him, looking like a profiteer who was promoting real estate. "According to the most basic interstellar navigation rules and the habit of most intelligent creatures when building navigation systems, this kind of spaceship must record the relative position of its home planet in the universe. Marking the position of a star in the universe is basic homework. The current people on Earth know how to do it, and the sirens who can build this kind of spaceship must know how to do it too. If I'm not wrong, there should be a database in the spaceship, which is dedicated to storing star maps. According to the power of the Torrent Core, this spaceship should have the ability to perform a level II space jump when it was in good condition, so the range of the star map should be large enough for us to find its starting position in the universe. "
Everyone looked at the siren queen, who spread her hands and thought for a long time. Her tail curled into a question mark in the air. "What are you talking about?"
Everyone was speechless.
"Uh..." Hao Ren almost choked after pretending to be an expert for a long time. "D * mn, you should be the captain of this spaceship in theory... Well, I won't make it so complicated. Does Nasaton have something like a central control room? It has a lot of display equipment, a lot of buttons, an operation panel that I can't see the function of, and a useless indicator light that keeps flashing. You may not know what it's used for, but it's obviously very important. Is there such a room? "
The Queen of the Sirens pointed to the ruins of the palace not far away. "That's it."
"We've blown up the bridge," Y 'zaks said with his arms crossed. "The palace is the bridge."
Hao Ren slapped his forehead. "I forgot."
"Another stalemate?" White Flame asked curiously. After her mentor took the initiative to show his curiosity about the otherworldlings, she could finally ask a question openly.
"No, we don't need the bridge," Hao Ren said, trying to recall the Starship Structure and Spaceship Design Guide in his mind. "The database can't be placed on the bridge. It should be kept in the safer core cabin of the spaceship. The bridge is just a bunch of operation terminals. We just need to find those lines and then connect them to the database... Everyone, split up and see if you can find the main structure of the bridge from the ruins and then clear the main lines. "
"This is a big project," the siren queen quickly responded. "Let's gather people and clean up the entire ruins."
Vivian nodded. "That's good. Let's give everyone something to do. It's good for mental recovery."
Shaqira and Sorma immediately went around to gather the sirens in charge and conveyed the Queen's order to bring people to clean up the ruins of the palace. Groups of sirens quickly gathered from all directions. Some of them even brought along equipment that they could find nearby. The scene suddenly became lively. The sirens were busy carrying the debris from the ruins. They were of different shapes, like mermaids, sea snakes, mantis shrimps, giant squids, and two sea urchins that were bigger than tanks rolled by. No one knew what they wanted to do, but they were probably here to slack off.
Hao Ren and his group of friends stared at the scene in front of them, dumbfounded. The word 'demon' in the name of the sirens was indeed apt to the bone. Look at how busy they are, it's no different from a fight between demons and monsters.
Lily stretched her neck and looked at them for a long time. She was a little emotional. "It's really artistic that a race can produce so many styles."
"Look at the form 59 mantis shrimps and form 99 sea urchins. Tsk tsk," Hao Ren turned to look at Nangong Wuyue. "Honestly, do you want to be like this?"
Nangong Wuyue was concentrating on poking a small stone with the tip of her tail. "Anyway, I don't know how to fight. Anyway, I don't know how to fight …"
Hao Ren was speechless.
The power of water was powerful, especially in the city of the deep, where the power of the sirens could be exerted to the fullest. The huge debris and ruins were pushed around by the type 59 mantis shrimps and sea crabs like foam toys. The largest collapsed area was soon cleared. Hao Ren took the MDT and began to look for the frame of the bridge in the cleared area. The siren queen followed beside him, trying to recall what the place was originally under the rubble.
While the cleaning work was in progress, a group of special helpers suddenly came to the scene.
It was a group of otherworldlings — the Blood Clan, werewolves, shadelings, and a few short guys of unknown race. These people came over and began to help clean up the ruins without saying a word. Shaqira looked at them in surprise. "You guys …"
A werewolf walked past with a broken pillar in his hand. He grinned and said, "I heard from the siren general that they're clearing the rubble here. We're free anyway, so we came to help move the stuff. You guys won't be able to send us back to shore for a while anyway."
"Actually, I didn't want to help," a Blood Clan member shrugged, then glanced at Vivian in awe. "But the elder sent a little bat to call us … Who would dare to disobey."
Hao Ren looked at Vivian in surprise. The latter waved her hand indifferently. "I just sent a bat to tell them."
"I didn't expect them to be so generous." Y 'zaks scratched his chin. "I thought they would at least fight with the sirens for some compensation or something."
"Most otherworldlings don't like that. We prefer to be straightforward," Vivian laughed. "Since the sirens are also the victims, there's nothing to pursue. They've all survived from the Mythological Era, and many of them are very practical. "
"Of course, there must be some who are more angry." Sorma raised his body and looked into the distance. There was a turbulent flow of water in that direction, and a faint noise came. It seemed that a conflict had broken out. "I'll go and see what's going on."
Vivian shook her head. "After all, we're all from different races. We have different ways of doing things and acting. We're always in a state of disunity."
White Flame muttered, "It seems that the otherworldlings are facing a big social problem."
"No, our biggest social problem is that we have almost no society," Vivian glanced at White Flame. "Thanks to you guys."
Hasse shrugged and did not say a word.
The MDT slid past a collapsed metal pillar. The light emitted from its front swept around, outlining the hidden pipeline structure underground. At this time, it suddenly whistled. "Whoo — I found it."
People nearby immediately stopped talking and came over. Hao Ren saw that the MDT's beam was shining on a device that looked like a pillar of a palace that had been cut off at the root. He stepped forward to clean up the debris around the device and found a large number of pipes and lines hidden underneath.
"This must be the place where the navigator worked. I detected a large number of lines leading to a central node," the MDT said as it approached the device. As the MDT spoke, it moved closer to the wires, and a progress bar of connection and decryption appeared on its holographic image.
The siren queen looked at the place in surprise. After a long time, she spread out her hands and said, "I don't know … I often sleep on this pillar, but I don't know what it does."
Hao Ren was speechless.
"I found the navigation data." After waiting for a long time, the MDT finally reported the good news. "Io, the name of the sirens' home planet is Io."
