Chapter 55 Silicon-Based Life and Dyson Rings
The difficulty of constructing medium and large wormholes is far more than a hundred times that of small wormholes.

Even though Lin Lingqi already has quite skilled experience and technology, it still took 20 days to complete the construction of the tenth wormhole.

Since "Hope" is not around, and the analysis and calculation of the logic computer has not been completed, he can only observe and screen through the photon telescope, looking for a star field suitable for the settlement of the "home star system".

The "Phoenix Civilization", which knows almost nothing about what's going on outside, has completed the reconstruction of the entire island's infrastructure during this period.

At this time, the increasing scientific research personnel were divided into two groups. One group carried out more detailed exploration from the shallow sea area to the deep sea area, and the other group led a large number of working people to the adjacent islands to construct various industrial plants.

Next to the relatively simple residential area on the island, a commercial area with a large area is also planned.

Even if the commercial centers that have risen from the ground have not yet been capped, they still reveal the vision and wisdom of the planners!
It's a pity that this star field is too barren!

Lin Lingqi, who was constantly analyzing and comparing, had to expand the observation distance from 20 light-years to 50 light-years, and then to 80 light-years
After continuing to observe for half a day, when he was considering whether to expand the observation range to 500 light-years, he unexpectedly discovered that on a relatively bright yellow dwarf star 400 light-years away, there were dozens of characters in the shape of "person" faintly appearing. Evenly distributed small black dots!

"Pause modeling calculations, and immediately observe and analyze the targets found in the photon telescope at 3 o'clock!"

He wouldn't have been able to spot these little black dots if it weren't for the yellow dwarf's brighter light.

However, even with the maximum magnification of the photon telescope, it is still difficult to see whether those extremely distant black spots are stellar flares.
Soon, the logic computer gave the observation and analysis results:
The observation target appeared 400 years ago, and it was flying straight at a speed of 6000 kilometers per second;

After a large number of optical comparisons, it is confirmed that the target metal coverage rate is over 90%, and there is a 69% probability that it is determined to be a metal spacecraft of a low-to-medium level civilization!

Middle and low level civilization?

Without super-light technologies such as space jumping or curvature navigation of advanced civilizations, even if that civilization can easily destroy the "Phoenix Civilization", is the distance of 400 light-years a gap that the speed of the fifth universe can cross?
However, this unexpected discovery surprised Lin Lingqi!

The other party dared to fly in formation unscrupulously on the surface of the stars. Doesn't it prove that this pocket-sized Small Magellanic Cloud is as speculated that there is no advanced civilization?

As long as it is confirmed that the middle and low-level civilization that appeared 400 years ago still exists, it can prove that the guess of "no higher civilization" is true, thus saving a lot of time and energy to find the possible crisis that the "Phoenix Civilization" may encounter!

And the method of confirmation is simpler, just launch a space jump for close observation!

"Calculate the possible position of the target now!"

Soon, the logic computer carried out modeling calculations based on the nearby radiation intensity, temperature difference, mineral distribution, gas concentration, etc., and quickly provided four sets of space coordinate data with a probability of more than 50%, with the center point of the Small Magellanic Cloud as a reference .

Fortunately, even though the directions of these four sets of coordinate data are different, the farthest distance from each other is no more than 4 light-years.

After getting the data, Lin Lingqi gave another instruction to let the logic computer find the hiding place that is closest to the four sets of coordinate data and is not easy to be found, and then input the data to activate the space jumping skill!
The extremely faint sense of dizziness passed by, and he instantly appeared 385 light-years away, in a large gaseous planetary gravel belt.

It has to be said that sometimes the analytical ability of a computer far exceeds personal judgment!

Just like this gravel belt that is slowly rotating around the gaseous planet, not only can you have a clear view of the four sets of coordinate data points, but you can also follow the rotation to conduct more detailed observations from different angles!

The most important thing is that the meteorites on this gravel belt are of different sizes and unevenly distributed. It is difficult to find Lin Lingqi hiding in it through observation!
But he never expected that just after the space jump and before he had time to observe, a large metal robot with a size of more than 120 meters crashed into the photon layer without thinking!

这 是
The moment he let go of the gravity and consciousness, Lin Lingqi was slightly taken aback, but more... was surprised!

The robot in the photon layer is already in a shutdown state, perhaps it is more accurate to describe it as death!
Because the robot does not have any driving system or control system, not only does it not have a little bit of energy, but even in the strangely twisted limbs and half-split metal head, various extremely delicate but very natural and reasonable metal combination functional components are revealed!

In other words, this is the silicon-based life form that appeared in human sci-fi movies, a "transformer" with life that can change forms!
Good guy, I didn't expect to encounter the corpse of this kind of intelligent life here.
I wonder if the first generation of silicon-based life forms were created by advanced civilizations?

Just as he was thinking about it, the logic computer had already sent observation information: a highly modified terrestrial planet was discovered, and a technological creation suspected to be Dyson's ring was discovered!

Received the observation information from the logic computer but did not receive a system warning. It seems that this star field that may have broken out in war is relatively safe.

Lin Lingqi, who was very interested, personally observed through the photon telescope, and he was greatly amazed by the scenes that appeared in the camera!
Unexpectedly, on a terrestrial planet that has been mined out, there is not even a decent building, but it is densely surrounded by huge "iron rings" with extremely exquisite shapes!
Underneath the patchwork "iron rings" is a huge diamond-shaped "iron plate" with twinkling lights, and countless silicon-based life forms are flying back and forth in the gaps of the "iron plates"!

There is no doubt that those "iron rings" surrounding the sky at an altitude of [-] meters are the residential areas of silicon-based life forms.

Those dense but neat diamond-shaped "iron plates" are their industrial areas!

Lin Lingqi not only saw a small aircraft with an extremely attractive shape, it was assembled and quickly lifted off from the major industrial areas.
I also saw a large number of silicon-based life forms with dim eyes in the living area, replenishing energy in their bodies one after another!

The more Lin Lingqi looked at it, the more shocked she became, and she observed this earth-like planet full of metallic style and industrial beauty several times!
This "heavy metal" taste surprisingly hit his most obsessed with aesthetics!
After watching for a long time, he turned the camera reluctantly, and looked at the radiant yellow dwarf again, and finally saw the "thin ring" around the star!
And the super large ring with a diameter of 150 million kilometers is the representative of middle and low-level civilization-the "Dyson ring" that perfectly absorbs the energy of the sun!
