Tang En and the others heard Selna's shout and immediately gathered over. Then, they saw a very complete prehistoric remnant lying in a hibernation pod!
"This … is our ancestor?"
Klotto and Reeves stared blankly at the hibernation pod. The person lying inside was their ancestor from ten thousand years ago.
Klotto was very disappointed. "It's your ancestor …"
On the surface, this ancestor did not look much different from an ordinary goblin, but many of the tissues on the surface of his body had crystallized, as if crystals were growing on his body. The cell tissues wrapped around the roots of the green crystals, and the two were one. It was impossible to distinguish between organic and inorganic matter.
The excited Reeves touched his arm, then felt very strange. "Why are there crystals growing on our ancestor's body? Did we degenerate, or did our ancestor evolve? "
They were clearly a species created by the gods, so how could they evolve and degenerate?
Tang En also felt very strange. How could such inorganic matter grow on the surface of a creature with organic matter? And it seemed to be a symbiotic relationship.
Could it be that the ancestors of the goblins were this kind of life form between inorganic and organic matter? If so, due to the characteristics of inorganic matter, their resistance to radiation should be stronger!
Puzzling! It was really puzzling!
[Nola, is he still alive?]
[He's alive, but his life signs are very weak.]
So, Tang En said, "Don't be puzzled. After we find a way to wake him up, we can answer our questions."
"Can we wake him up?"
"With the help of life force, there should be no problem. The trouble is waking him up, but will something else be awakened when we wake him up?"
Tang En was a little helpless. In theory, anyone who worked in aerospace would go through a strict and complete disinfection process when they entered a base. This meant that this hibernation prehistoric remnant should be completely clean in theory and would not carry any viruses or germs.
But there was always a chance …
Tang En expressed his concern, and then Gabelle patted her chest. "It's okay, leave this to me! Just remember to transfer the payment to my account later. "
Winette was speechless.
This guy was really separating public from private interests. He wouldn't let go of any opportunity to make money.
Tang En sighed and said, "Then let's do it."
It was still acceptable to spend money to hire a top-notch angel under the God of Light.
Gabrielle leaned forward to take a look, then muttered to herself as she placed her hand on the glass barrier of the hibernation pod. Then, Tang En and the others saw a faint holy light on Gabrielle's hand. A moment later, the hibernating prehistoric remnant in the hibernation pod was enveloped by the holy light.
The holy light scanned him from head to toe, removing any possible contaminants from his body. Then they saw some light gray substance in the nutrient solution in the hibernation chamber.
"Enough."
Gabrielle clapped her hands and signaled Tang En to open the hibernation pod.
Tang En solemnly walked to the front of the hibernation pod, and then …
Tang En looked back at Kloto and the others. "Who can tell me how to open this thing?"
Everyone: "…"
"Let me do it!"
Kloto volunteered. "Before I came here, I had already studied all the equipment excavated from the prehistoric ruins. I have a rough idea of how they designed the equipment. If I'm not wrong, the hibernation pod's design principle is the same."
Kloto ran to the front and started looking for the control panel to activate the hibernation pod. After searching for a long time, he finally found a thin control panel that popped out from a gap.
"Luckily, the independent energy system is working …"
Kloto carefully operated the control panel and muttered, "But what kind of energy system is used here? It can operate independently for ten thousand years …"
Tang En was also very curious. Even if it was a nuclear fusion reactor, without new fuel and maintenance, it would have been extinguished long ago.
According to the previous information, the energy source they used should be psionic energy, which was the psionic crystals that were all over Lorita.
But how could this energy system be maintained for so long?
If they could study it, they might be able to gain a lot. But it didn't matter if they couldn't. Now that Tang En and the others had mastered the magical modification technology, the energy source used was also not bad.
"Found it!"
Kloto cheered. Then, he heard the alarm in the hibernation pod in front of him. The distorted electronic synthesized voice used the prehistoric language that everyone was familiar with. "External command detected … Vital signs monitoring system working normally … Hibernation pod activated … Hibernation pod awakening …"
The light in the hibernation pod suddenly became brighter. Then, the transparent liquid inside the hibernation pod started to slowly descend. A few mechanical arms extended from the hibernation pod and slowly pierced the body of the hibernation pod with syringes. Then, they started to inject the awakening potion.
Tang En looked at this scene and felt very worried. "The potion in the syringes has been in there for ten thousand years. What if it loses its effect …"
The others immediately thought of this problem, but the syringes had already started to inject the potion. Even if they wanted to stop it, it was useless.
On the control panel, several tables showing the vital signs of the hibernation began to change. The heart rate began to recover, blood began to circulate again, and a straight line of brain waves began to fluctuate.
But soon, something abnormal happened. After the heart rate and blood pressure values recovered, they began to rise and soon exceeded the normal value. The numbers on the meter had turned into an unusually dazzling bright red. The brain waves also became very strange. The peaks and troughs were very different from the reference values above.
"Satellite patrol team Level One Pilot Rooney Gower has been successfully awakened …"
Satellite patrol team? Rooney? I seem to have heard this name somewhere …
"Warning! Abnormal heart rate of hibernation! Abnormal blood pressure! Abnormal brain waves! — It is recommended to seek medical assistance immediately … Medical center failed to call emergency rescue robots … Emergency hibernation system activated … Contaminated brain fluid … Insufficient brain fluid reserves … Emergency hibernation system failed to activate … "
The ear-piercing alarm gave everyone a fright, but what happened next left them dumbfounded — the dormant being, who had almost been declared dead by the dormant pod, actually moved!
That's right! He actually moved a little!
Kloto exclaimed, "He's awake! But why hasn't the hibernation pod been opened yet — damn it! "
At this time, Kloto suddenly saw another warning message. "The external environment of the pod is abnormal. The pod is automatically locked. If there is an emergency, please manually open it from the inside or outside."
Tang En said, "The air here has completely leaked. It's basically in a vacuum state."
"But we could clearly hear the alarm just now …"
"That's because there's another medium between us and the sound source."
Tang En stomped his feet, then took out an improved version of the Matrix Defense Module and placed it on the ground. After activating it, he said, "Let's make do with this first … provided that he can really wake up."
Judging from the situation on the monitoring system, the probability of this guy waking up was very small.
When the micro ecosystem activated by the matrix defense module began to function, Hao Ren decisively opened the hibernation pod. Although he did not know if the breathing environment of the prehistoric survivors was the same as theirs, now that the goblins and gnomes could live normally in Prandal, in theory, the prehistoric survivors should need the same ecological environment as theirs.
As time went by, the dormant prehistoric survivor was really coming to life. His movements were getting more and more intense. His eyelids were trembling, his eyeballs began to move, and even his limbs began to tremble slightly. This showed that his vital signs were rapidly recovering.
But thinking of the alarm he heard earlier, Tang En felt that he should help him again. So he used Nola's power to release a large amount of life force to cover the entire hibernation pod. After the huge amount of life force poured into his body, the dwarf named Rooney Gower suddenly began to gasp for breath. Then he suddenly opened his eyes — two luminous pearls.
Rooney's glowing eyes stunned everyone again — wasn't the difference between the prehistoric goblins and the current goblins too big?
Rooney, who had just woken up, didn't seem to be fully awake yet. Even if he opened his eyes, he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly. He stretched out his wet hand, trying to grab something. Reeves immediately went up and supported him.
In a trance, Rooney stared at Reeves for a long time. He opened his mouth and cried out for a long time, as if he wanted to say something, but his brain wasn't able to organize his words. In the end, he laid on Reeves' body and started sobbing.
Everyone present was silent.
The world had been destroyed, death was spreading, and there was no hope.
Rooney was probably mentally prepared before entering hibernation, ready to accept the future that he would never wake up. This sleep was probably forever.
Who would be able to understand the feeling of sending oneself to death while still conscious?
However, it was precisely under such circumstances that he was awakened from his deep slumber by Twain and the others. This kind of agitation, entanglement, apprehension, fear, and all sorts of complicated feelings that were entangled together was something that almost no one could understand.
Tang En was no exception.
But the difference between him and others was that he had been influenced by the cultural works on Earth, so he could understand Rooney's feelings at this moment.
Rooney … the pilot of the satellite patrol team, Rooney?
Tang En suddenly exclaimed, "I remember! Could it be that you are that Rooney?! (See Chapter 1212) "
