Chapter 119: Ten Thousand Capsules
On the inner side of the bracket, there are hanging things that look like giant capsules, arranged neatly, and there are countless of them.
At first, Rong Yuan didn't know what it was. He thought it was the fruit of some plant, or some device for producing air. After he walked in and saw what was inside, he realized the true identity of these capsules .
The capsule was filled with a viscous substance that was both liquid and gas. A pale girl was suspended in the capsule with her brows relaxed and her face expressionless. She was not covered at all and her hair was shaved clean. More than a dozen tubes were connected to her head, neck, cervical spine, limbs, waist and abdomen, etc.
In the capsule next to him was an old man, thin, with calloused hands and feet, and no hair, and no clothes. There were traces of sutures on his chest, a rectangular scar that stretched from the left chest to the right chest, turned at a right angle and extended vertically to the top of the hips, and then stretched to the left side of the waist.
Young and strong men, pregnant women, small children... Humans of different genders, ages, and regions were put into the capsules, and their bodies showed more or less signs of dissection. A careful comparison revealed that these people were put in very selectively, with only one or two of each type, and perhaps more bodies had been abandoned because they had lost their usefulness, but even so, the sight of them was so dense that it made people feel both disgusted and angry.
——This extremely clean place that looks like something out of a dream is actually a huge experimental field!
Rong Yuan looked over in silence. After walking for a distance, the objects in the capsule suddenly changed, and all of them were replaced by the corpses of birds and animals: monkeys, elephants, tigers, zebras, hares... Some of them Rong Yuan had seen before, but there were many more he had never heard of. Some were animals that had long been extinct on Earth, such as mammoths, dinosaurs, Archaeopteryx, etc. Perhaps due to space limitations, most of the animals here were cubs, and there were very few adult beasts.
The people who created this place didn't seem to be very keen on animal research, so this area was much smaller than Rong Yuan had expected. Compared with the thousands of strange species on Earth, there were too few examples here. Even so, the animal area occupied nearly half of the length of the capsule.
Behind these animal areas, the style of painting suddenly changed - the capsules here were all as white as snow, inlaid with gold on the top, dotted with jewels around, and with delicate patterns painted on the surface of the capsules - this did not look like a vessel for holding experimental subjects, but rather a carefully crafted coffin.
But the corpses inside were extremely horrific.
These were also "human" corpses, but they were a little different from the humans Rong Yuan knew. Most of them had golden brown skin, and their facial features were deeper than those of Caucasians, so they looked a little weird, but if you ignore this, they were all stunningly beautiful, regardless of gender or age. The biggest difference from humans on Earth was that, except for a few children, they were generally over three meters tall, with a muscular body, and not weak or soft.
These were the only bodies whose hair had not been processed and whose clothes were still preserved. Their hair was mainly black, but there were also various colors such as golden brown, red and white. Their clothes were relatively loose, and it was impossible to tell what materials they were made of, but they still floated slowly in the water, and seemed very thin. Most of these people had intact bodies and calm expressions, but some had twisted and painful expressions. Their bodies were also incomplete. Some had their heads separated from their bodies, some were split in half, some had their intestines flowing out, and even worse, their bodies were so broken that they could not be put together at all, with flesh and bones floating up and down in the capsule. These bodies were different from the previous ones. They had not been processed in any way, as if they had been randomly stuffed into the capsule after a major accident.
Although it was disgusting, Rong Yuan observed more carefully. The unique appearance of these capsules and corpses proved that they were the key to this underground city. If he was not mistaken, these people were the builders of this test site. Because of this, only the capsules where they were sleeping were decorated so gorgeously.
He looked at a capsule in front of him. Inside was a middle-aged man with long golden hair. He had a handsome face, a well-proportioned physique, and was extremely handsome, but a bloodstain extended from his forehead to his abdomen. He was almost split in half, and his eyes were fixed in a moment of horror. Rong Yuan took a closer look. The bloodstain was so sharp that it made people feel cold all over. I wonder how terrified this man was when facing the sword that was slashing at him.
Pulling out the laser dagger and turning it to maximum power, Rong Yuan cut open the capsule, and the liquid inside immediately flowed out and evaporated. He hurriedly took two steps back to avoid being stuck to his body. These transparent liquids mixed with blood evaporated in the air before they could fall to the ground. After wasting some time, he completely cut the front of the capsule, and then cut off the catheter that was hanging the man. The body lost its support and fell forward. Rong Yuan reached out to grab it, but the weight was beyond his expectation. He didn't hold it firmly, and the body fell to the ground.
Rong Yuan turned the three or four meter tall giant over face up. His body still maintained its elasticity, his internal organs did not seem to have completely lost their vitality, and thin blood was oozing from the edges of the wound, as if what he had done was from two or three hours ago - perhaps these people put their bodies in capsules just to be resurrected one day.
This man's body was much heavier than Rong Yuan had guessed, about 700 to 800 kilograms. Rong Yuan changed to an ordinary dagger and took a look at his wound. His muscle and bone density was much higher than that of an Earthling, and the color of his blood was also darker. Rong Yuan stabbed with the knife, but it didn't even pierce his skin, leaving only a white scratch. Although he didn't use much strength, the result was really amazing.
A small egg-shaped robot slid over, turned its head left and right, grabbed the half capsule on the ground and dragged it away. A cleaning robot like a plate followed behind it, cleaning up the traces it left as it walked.
“Buzz buzz buzz…”
Rong Yuan heard a subtle sound approaching from behind him, so he stood up and took two steps to the side. He saw another egg robot approach the giant, take a look at him, clean him all over, and stuff back the piece of intestine that had been knocked out when he fell. Then, it and another robot that came over lifted him up and were about to take him away.
Rong Yuan hadn't finished watching, so he didn't let them take his observation object away. He kicked the pair of robots away in two kicks and was about to explore further when he suddenly heard a large buzzing sound. He looked back and saw countless figures of all sizes rushing over. It seemed that all the robots in the dungeon had gone berserk.
He quickly moved to a high platform that was easy to defend but difficult to attack, thinking that he would face a fierce battle. However, all the robots rushed to the giant on the ground: some raised their heads, some raised their feet, some wiped the floor back and forth, some stretched out their mechanical arms to hang the body back into a good capsule, and some turned on the switch on the capsule to refill it with transparent liquid. In the blink of an eye, the ground returned to its spotless state not long ago. Many small robots lingered for a while before leaving reluctantly.
Rong Yuan finally understood why the bodies of these giants were crudely put into capsules without even being sewn up after the misfortunes they encountered.
He felt that these robots had a rare meaningful job to do, and this state could almost be called excitement. However, seeing that they were indifferent to him as an intruder, it did not seem that they had real wisdom and independent judgment.
However, with the presence of these robots, it would be difficult for Rong Yuan to see the giant up close. Does he have to take off a capsule and drag it to the surface of the moon to observe?
But he was also very curious - where did these giants come from? Are they aliens? What was the purpose of building this experimental site? What did they want to learn by capturing so many humans and animals?
There was about one-fifth of the area in this circle of capsules that he had not yet explored. Perhaps the secret was hidden in that area. Rong Yuan was about to go over when he suddenly heard Wandou say, "Rong Yuan, an unknown signal was detected."
Rong Yuan paused and asked, "What's the signal?"
"It's a timing signal that is sent at a fixed time. The source of the signal has been found. It is located in the central area. It is 13 kilometers horizontally and 2.5 kilometers vertically from the current position."
Rong Yuan turned towards the place where the signal was sent without saying a word.
——The fact that a signal was sent proves that there were electronic devices; the existence of electronic devices means that there may be records of the origin, purpose, and changes of this Moon Heart City.
The sending area is located right above the crystal stone. From a distance, the crystal stone takes up the entire view, and it feels like a large bracket. When you get closer, you will find that this is a very large building. The structure is flat like a plate, with a large square in the middle, with fountains, flowers, round tables and low stools. There are some houses around the square, all of which are only one floor, but very high. There are some signs hanging on the doors of all the rooms, and the signs are written with beautiful but unfamiliar words in winding lines.
Looking at those words, Rong Yuan suddenly realized that even if he found some records, it would be impossible for him to read and understand them - he didn't know what those words said at all.
He walked over, took down a sign, looked at it, and asked, "Pea, is there anything that can translate these words?"
"Yes. The universal translator can translate languages of different systems into specific language patterns - such as Sugar Language, which can help the contractor solve difficulties in conversation and reading, but it cannot replace writing. It is worth 12,800 merit points." Pea said that every time it introduced a product, it sounded like it was reading an advertisement.
"Exchange." Rong Yuan said.
He originally thought that the universal translator was something similar to a mobile phone, but it turned out to be a silver mask that fits the skin very well. When he put on the mask, the strange words he saw through the lens would be converted into sugar words, and the language would be the sugar language he was familiar with when it entered his ears. At the same time, the words he spoke could also be converted into any language system through the translation of the mask.
When Rong Yuan put on the silver mask, the flower-like words changed in his eyes. The sign in his hand said "Lounge", and outside a room at the other end of the square, there was a sign that said "Information Room".
He pushed open the door of the archive room, and at the same time he opened up a history of 16,000 years.
