As soon as the Petrachelys issued the command, the drones all over the universe responded, and a huge ultra-high-speed data link began to be built at an amazing speed. Tens of thousands of droid swarms returned from their wandering. Some of them were drawing star maps billions of light-years away, some were building bases on some desolate dark planet, and some were setting up outposts and factories in space. Now, they had paused their current work. Other than the individuals needed to maintain the swarm's functions, a large number of droids gathered from the depths of the universe and laid out a massive transmission system in the vast expanse of space.
Due to the limited bandwidth of the drones, they all switched to the 'nest' mode that could carry out ultra-high-speed communication. In this mode, the communication distance between the drones would be shortened, but the communication efficiency would be greatly improved. Countless of such drones were deployed between CARS and Zorm like a relay. They spread out their silver-white antenna system in the cold and dead universe, one by one, waiting for the transmission of 1.6 billion souls.
Above Zorm, the drone motherships that had just arrived were nervously and orderly building a large antenna array. The large, silver-white, spaceship-shaped probes hovered on the extension line from the star to Zorm, assembling the large antennas they brought from the base into a giant ring with a radius of one kilometer. A large number of small drones were busy shuttling around the array, fixing the antennas and energy system in place, and fixing themselves into the antenna slot every time a part was completed. The consciousness of the drone cluster controlled this complex and sophisticated work. Under its command, the large and small 'spaceships' were more flexible and accurate than any human fleet.
The scorching light of the star shone on the embryonic antenna array, dazzling and dazzling.
On the bridge of the Petrachelys, Hao Ren and the others were nervously watching the progress of the project and the performance of Zorm. The planet had just experienced another star tearing, and now almost all of its surface had been torn off. They could almost see the shelter and the tentacles of the First Born under the molten ground. The MDT was perhaps the calmest at the scene. It was reporting the current progress calmly. "The drone link has been completed 80%, and it will be connected in an hour. The spaceship's transfer system is also ready and can be activated at any time. "
The Petrachelys hovered over the boundary line of Zorm's day and night, overlooking the process of the sun burning the planet. A large group of drones had gathered around the spaceship. The drones were busy fixing themselves on the lower armor belt of the spaceship and connecting a large number of devices that looked like pipes and robotic hands around the spaceship's antenna. Part of the Petrachelys' armor plate had been removed, exposing the complex internal structure. The MDT had to make an emergency 'modification' to install a temporary conversion device.
The MDT objected at the time. "I have to emphasize that this is not in line with safety regulations."
When the communication link in space was gradually established, Zorm also ushered in its third round of day and night. There were only twelve hours left in this world.
Most of them began to fidget around. Even Nangong Sanba, who did not understand these high-tech principles, was nervous. Even Rollie, who was dizzy from the start, was affected by the atmosphere. She quietly curled up into a small ball beside the chair and quieted down. Hao Ren pressed his hands on the console, waiting for the final connection to be established.
Finally, a constantly changing virtual face appeared on the communicator, and the interface of the drone cluster reported in a stiff mechanical voice. "Drone data link successfully connected. Transmission is ready."
"Wait for another ten minutes," the MDT suddenly said as it used a holographic projection to show the situation on the dark side of Zorm. "Wait for the sunlight to pass. The data connection point is at this position. It will be night soon. Transmission will start after nightfall, and we will have six hours of stable communication time. "
The holographic projection of the planet Zorm was marked by the MDT in two colors: the sunny side was red, and the dark side was blue. A round spot with a radius of a quarter of the planet's radius was located at the equator, and was now gradually entering the night zone from the boundary line. That was the 'data release point' that the First Born had mentioned. It was the soul transmission port that the people of Zorm had set up before they entered the virtual world to return to the real world. And Hao Ren's plan was to connect the Petrachelys to the transmission port, and extract the soul data of the entire species. During the connection process, the data release point would inevitably be exposed to the high temperature on the surface. The Petrachelys was not afraid of such temperature, but the tissues and organs of the First Born could not. If the process was carried out under the sun, the stability of the transmission could not be guaranteed.
The MDT had accurately calculated the rotation of Zorm and the construction speed of the drone link, and now it had successfully completed the data link to the 'data release point' ten minutes before nightfall.
The sea of fire on the boundary line slowly receded under everyone's gaze. As the sun was blocked by the planet, darkness finally came to the predetermined place.
Hao Ren immediately turned to the communicator. "Open the data release point!"
The amorphous light on the communicator shook a little, and the First Born sent two simple words. "Understood."
Then a part of Zorm's celestial body 'bloomed'.
Like a flower bud blooming, the planet suddenly bulged at the equator. Then, large chunks of crust and half-molten rocks squirmed and split in all directions, plate fragments that were far larger than mountains were hence torn apart. And around those 'blooming' petals, there was a large number of tissues that looked like animal muscles pushing them. That was the power that caused the planet to 'bloom', it was the tentacles of the First Born.
The scene looked magnificent from space, and it was hard to imagine what a magnificent scene they had set off on the surface of the planet.
"This is the mature First Born …" Lily's eyes widened as she looked at the opening of the planet. Her voice was a little shaky. "Those in Holletta are just children …"
"There's no time to sigh," Hao Ren said quickly as he issued the command to establish the connection. "After this crack opens, the strength of the planet will further decline, and maybe it will collapse earlier. MDT, bring all the transfer systems online. Drone cluster, it's all up to you! "
The Petrachelys, carrying a large number of newly installed connections, rushed to the opening of the planet, and all the antennas of the drone cluster were turned on at the same time. At the same time, the huge 'data release point' on Zorm also revealed something deep inside.
It was an indescribable mass of biological tissue, cable lines, liquid and gas pipes intertwined. It looked like a huge heart, and the whole scene looked like the planet's heart was exposed. Around this huge mass of thing was a vast red liquid that looked like an ocean. Without analyzing its composition, Hao Ren knew what it was: lifeblood.
It must have been used by the people of Zorm to rebuild the ecosystem and their own flesh, but now it was useless.
After the lifeblood was exposed to space, it immediately began to boil and rushed toward the biological tissue near the data release point. The Petrachelys was already above the 'heart of the planet', and a large number of cables and adapters were sent down by the drones.
Hao Ren wiped the cold sweat off his forehead as he stared at the interface on the console. For the next ten seconds, he even forgot to breathe. It was not until a few words appeared that he felt relieved. "Connection established."
The voice of the MDT came from the bridge. "Data transmission has begun."
Hao Ren nodded and turned to the comm. "How are you feeling?"
The First Born's response appeared on the comm. "Very good."
Nangong Wuyue was still a little surprised when she saw the words on the comm. Now that things seemed to be better, she also had a chance to express her surprise. "Is this really the First Born talking?"
"I was as surprised as you at first." Hao Ren knew what Nangong Wuyue was thinking. He smiled. "But the rational First Born is indeed like this, a very, very gentle guy."
Vivian listened to Hao Ren's words thoughtfully. "And it is precisely because such a gentle creature that it became even crazier after knowing that its mother was killed. Mr. Landlord, how are you going to explain the fall of the Goddess to it? It seems that … it still doesn't know about this. "
Hao Ren smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Don't give me trouble at this time."
"Sooner or later, it will have to say it, and it probably won't be able to hide it." Lily looked at Hao Ren very seriously. "We can only try to be tactful."
Hao Ren nodded silently and turned to look at the scene outside the spacecraft.
This was the last day of Zorm.
