Phew~

Xia Xiu felt the electronic worm on his hand begin to twist wildly. This small object showed an unusual vitality between his fingertips. Its surface was covered with countless tiny metal tentacles.

The tentacles are constantly changing shape and direction, like the tentacles of some exotic insect, weird and disturbing.

Each tentacle of the worm is full of mechanical vitality. They are slender and flexible, and each squirm reveals incredible complexity. These metal tentacles are covered with barbs and shine with a cold metallic luster.

They tried to scratch his skin with their sharp barbed tips.

However, although the chip worm's "attack" seemed ferocious, its efforts seemed to have no effect under Xia Xiujian's control.

He kept holding the hand, and the sharp tentacles of the worm could only make a slight rustling sound on the skin of his thumb and index finger, as if he was fiddling with a hard shell.

"This little thing looks quite unique, and he also has a bad temper."

The thumb and index finger of Xia Xiu's right hand pinched it up and down like plasticine, and then kneaded the worm like a ball. The metal prosthetic body of the worm was compressed by this back and forth movement.

The worm's metal body began to be gradually compressed under this rhythmic rubbing, and its wriggling became weaker and weaker.

The metal tentacles and barbs gradually lost their original shape under the young man's fingertips. They were compressed, folded, and finally integrated into a more compact structure. In the process, the worm's body made a slight metallic friction sound.

, accompanied by slight deformation and reshaping.

Soon, the originally ferocious and cunning chip worm was crushed into a projectile by him.

"It looks much better this way."

Xia Xiu looked at his handmade products with satisfaction. Compared with the ugly worm chip just now, the projectile full of geometric beauty in his hand looked pleasing to the eye. At the same time, [Adam] who was entrusted to his lineage also

Take the opportunity to start scanning everything on the metal projectile chip.

[There are a large number of language scripts that need to be deciphered on the metal chip. The number of these language scripts is as high as more than 2,000, and most of them are adhesive languages——]

[Language-like memevirus detected——]

[Start clearing...]

[Cleared!]

"The knowledge system composed of more than 2,000 language scripts and sticky words is also equipped with specific mime viruses to prevent leaks. This anti-theft awareness is quite good." Xia Xiu rubbed the metal projectiles with his fingers and looked at his hands playfully.

of projectiles.

"How many scripts are there that belong to the Terran Common branch?" he then asked [Adam].

[After testing, no Terra-related text scripts were detected——]

"That's interesting. It uses Iberian technology but doesn't have Iberian language branch scripts. This seems fishy no matter how you look at it."

A language script itself is a system for writing one or more languages.

In linguistics, script is not just a collection of letters, it also includes the symbols and signs used to form words, as well as the rules for the organization and use of these symbols and signs.

Different languages ​​can use the same script, and a language can use multiple different scripts.

The so-called clinging language is a language type, which is characterized by expressing grammatical relationships through a series of additional components (such as affixes), which are usually "glued" to the stems. Clinging language is different from other language types (

Such as inflectional language, isolating language, and aggregate language), it has unique grammatical and lexical structure characteristics.

An interesting thing to say is that Terra has an official unified script type. Although Terra has not truly formed a human empire that unified Terra (Deva almost did it), the metahumans in the [Ether Ocean]

However, the consciousness cluster cleverly completed the integration of multiple scripts of the world's languages, which formed a unified Terran language. Therefore, Terran Common Language is also called Human Language.

The current Terran language is a hybrid script that includes alphabetic, syllabic, ideographic and Abujad multi-script languages.

This composite and unified language is the official language and lingua franca of Terra. Every Terran can speak it, and different regions and countries have given birth to local and international dialects because of their different emphasis on scripts.

For example, the Wudu accent focuses on alphabetic scripts, the Oletinian Empire's Baixing provincial dialect focuses on ideograms, and the spoken language of the Daevite royal family that coexists ideographs and Abujad...

Iberia is deeply influenced by Youyang's alphabetic script culture, so the dialect also has irregular pronunciation and spelling.

But what’s interesting now is that the metal projectile in Xia Xiu’s hand contains a special document composed of more than 2,000 script languages. Looking at the technology of this projectile, he can tell at a glance that it is of Iberian species, but its inner

But an encrypted composite script is used.

Races that piece together more than 2,000 scripting languages ​​to form another language system usually have long lifespans and are idle, and Xia Xiu just happened to encounter them on Callisto.

"So this means that this thing was created by the Yis race, or in other words, by reincarnated humans. Have reincarnated humans ever appeared on Callisto? Did they create the Tegada in front of it here?"

After Xia Xiu took a final look at the metal projectile in his hand, he handed it over to [Adam] for disposal.

"[Adam], please parse and decipher the script language above, then translate and archive all the languages, and give me the documents that need to be highlighted."

[OK--]

A small amount of data fire burned from Xia Xiu's hand again, and then the blue data flame swallowed up the projectile, and he had already arrived in front of the huge metal furnace.

The closer you get to the metal furnace, the more you can see the obvious pipes and a large number of exhaust ports on it. There is a huge circular structure at the front of this mechanical facility, which looks like a huge wheel or part of an engine, with something on it.

Intricately patterned and decorated, icicles hang throughout the facility.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Meow——"

When Xia Xiu approached the metal furnace, Hui Feng on Xia Xiu's shoulder jumped down automatically, and Hope on the other shoulder also took the opportunity to ride on Hui Feng's head and stretched out his pink hands to grab Hui Feng.

A handful of gray hairs on the body.

This style of painting looks very fairytale-like.

It seems that no matter in the past or now, I always hope to form a special duo with some furry animals around Xia Xiu, like General Heng Ha.

"Meow--"

Gray Feng, who landed on the ground, shouted to the blond young man behind him, while Hope, who was riding on Gray Feng, raised his head and translated to him:

"It's saying keep up, it can find an exit."

Xia Xiu looked at Hope's conspicuous bag speechlessly.

I also use you to translate, Gray Wind was created by me, I can’t understand his words.

Xia Xiu didn't say anything more and followed silently.

Silent on the metal walkway of the furnace under the shadow of metal, a gray cat carries an elegance and mystery as he walks through the intricate mechanical city-state.

The cat's footsteps were steady and calm, as if he knew every corner of this metal building.

Behind it, a young man with blond hair and golden eyes followed closely. They shuttled through the intricate metal buildings. The path they walked circled around huge pipes and rotating gears, and passed by rows of exhaust vents where steam erupted.

.

The gray cat jumped over small obstacles nimbly, and Xia Xiu behind him also jumped along with it.

In the endless metal maze, Gray Wind's footsteps did not hesitate. It seemed to be guided by some invisible force and passed through complicated and intertwined passages.

This is the aura of fire within it, which can be understood as the "intuition" belonging to the machine soul.

The blond young man followed closely behind it, his footsteps echoing crisply on the metal ground. The sound echoed in the empty passage, like a lonely melody.

Under the leadership of Gray Feng, they finally came to a huge metal gate.

The door contrasts sharply with the smooth, sophisticated machinery surrounding it.

The door looks old and heavy. Its surface is eroded by the traces of time, and the mottled rust tells the history it has experienced. The rotating handle on this door should have been shiny copper or brass, but now it has been damaged by time and

Worn away by environmental erosion, its surface is covered with layers of frost, and the ice crystals emit a cold light under the light.

The design of the handle is reminiscent of the bank doors of the past, its thick circular swivel now almost unrecognizable due to corrosion.

The fusion of metal and ice makes this rotating device look like an object frozen in time, unable to rotate, quietly waiting for someone to unlock its secrets.

Xia Xiu stood in front of this door, his eyes penetrated the ice, trying to peek into the world behind the door.

He stretched out his hand, and the heat in his palm touched the cold metal, making a slight hissing sound.

He knew that this door might be the entrance to an unknown part of the interstellar thruster, and perhaps the key to propelling the giant wheel of Jupiter was hidden behind it.

And now, all he needs to do is open the door.

"Broken Fire——"

"Full Wisdom Scan·Master Key!"

Pfft——

A blue radiance surged out from his palm, beating like a living flame. This was not an ordinary flame, but an energy full of data flow. Its color was as deep as the ocean and as bright as the starry sky. He gently

With a wave, the blue flame began to spread along the door, covering every cold corner.

Although this flame seems gentle, it contains amazing heat.

It acts on the thick ice layer on the door in a strange way, causing the ice to melt like candle wax and dripping water into strings. Wherever the warmth of the flame touches, the frost begins to recede, revealing the forgotten lines underneath.

These lines seem to form a complex integrated circuit, and they form mysterious patterns on the door, which are like ancient runes and seem to hide unknown technology.

Under the guidance of these lines, the circular rotating device on the door began to rotate spontaneously, making a series of mechanical clicking sounds, as if the rusty gears were reawakened under the weight of time.

The purple-haired girl and the gray cat watched this scene intently. The device on the door rotated faster and faster. With each wheel connecting, an incredible force began to wake up behind the door.

Time and time——

Suddenly, a harsh scratching sound resounded throughout the space, and the door began to slowly move to both sides, accompanied by a low roar and mechanical echo.

The huge metal door slowly opened in front of Xia Xiu, revealing the unknown world behind it.
