World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 1521 - 370: Earth Orbital Flower_2
However, at this moment, she was still a bit amazed. She couldn’t help but smack her lips and shake her head, saying:
"It’s really difficult to imagine what the planet you used to live on was like. If there were no Earth Orbital Flowers, there should have been other similar creations, right? Why do you look like you’ve never seen these things... It’s strange, how did your former planet defend against external attacks?"
As she spoke, she didn’t keep it a secret and continued to explain:
"The Earth Orbital Flower is a Leviathan-level organism, a type of Dark Spirit Plant, usually planted near the near-earth orbit, used to ward off external attacks."
"These plants are controlled by the spiritual power connection of the Dark Spirit, don’t be fooled by how quietly they are now, wait until an enemy ship attacks, that’s when they reveal their true nature..."
"Moreover, these Earth Orbital Flowers have a very strong feature, which is that they can absorb energy and some substances, which is very effective in defending against long-range strikes. This is why here, they sell much better than those flashy Shields."
"After all, Shields can only passively absorb, and require constant consumption of energy when activated. If usually left in a closed state, they cannot respond to sudden surprise attacks, leading to catastrophe."
"On the contrary, these Earth Orbital Flowers can not only counterattack themselves, but also deflect and absorb incoming energy attacks. Even if your target is not them, as long as it is within their absorption range, the energy attack will be deflected, absorbed, and used to launch a long-range counterattack."
"..."
Bla bla bla, Ziwei opened the science popularization mode, introducing Zhang Xiaoman to the information about Earth Orbital Flowers, making the latter quite fascinated.
"I see, Ziwei, I just heard you say that these Earth Orbital Flowers are for sale? Is that true?"
Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes lit up, feeling like he had found something good.
The Great Fusion is imminent, and with the impact of those black technologies, Water Blue Star is gradually advancing into space. In the future, there will definitely be development and demand in this area.
If he could bring these Earth Orbital Flowers back, wouldn’t that solve the planet’s defense problem?
Even if facing attacks from outer space, there would be no need to worry about having no means to counter them.
After all, in many film and television works, the means to launch a long-range strike capable of planet destruction with a Star Annihilation Cannon is too common.
If Water Blue Star encounters a similar enemy in the future, they might get ambushed before they can react and get their base blown up.
With these Earth Orbital Flowers, Zhang Xiaoman believed the situation would improve somewhat.
"What? You want to buy some?"
Ziwei raised an eyebrow.
"But you have a point, Erin Star seems to indeed lack corresponding defense measures. If those Reapers have accomplices coming for revenge, it could easily fall into their trap..."
"No, you’re right, we must go buy some Earth Orbital Flower seeds, um... I remember there’s a place on this planet that sells them, let’s check it out when we get there!"
Hearing her say this, Zhang Xiaoman finally felt relieved.
As long as they’re for sale, that’s good.
Not only did he want to plant the seeds outside Erin Star, but he also wanted to buy more to take back, besides Water Blue Star, Guleng Star, and Divine Ancient Star could also plant some depending on the situation.
As the two conversed, the spaceship slowly entered the interior of Skull Star.
Since it was a huge Wild Beast Skull, the inside of this artificial planet was hollow.
The residents here did not live on the outside bones but built a peculiar home inside Skull Star.
Through the mimicry holographic projection of the Lessentara, Zhang Xiaoman could clearly see the internal environment of this planet.
They were cities made of steel, floating in the air, attached to the various large and small, complex bones on the Wild Beast Skull’s back, full of a three-dimensional feeling, as if floating in the air.
Unfortunately, what was lacking was that these cities, although at first glance were known to be filled with future high-tech styles, did not look as beautiful as Zhang Xiaoman initially imagined.
It was like this planet itself, the interior cities did not match his aesthetics, filled with thick smog everywhere, it looked like a backward industrial empire with very serious industrial pollution.
Moreover, the appearance of these city buildings was bizarre, with green and red, most of them looking sharp and ferocious, seemingly carrying a hint of cyberpunk style.
Zhang Xiaoman was not fond of this style, reminding him of the No Light Zone beneath the cities of Guleng Star.
Lastly, what was most unacceptable to him was the terrible lighting environment inside this planet.
It didn’t have the controllable sky color as in the Star Alliance’s World Tree under the Shield.
Here, the sky remained as dark as outer space, making the entire city feel as if it was in perpetual darkness.
Only relying on continuous energy supply lighting could illuminate the place.
Overall, the architectural style inside Skull Star, though novel and had a good sense of technology, was somewhat crude, giving a chaotic and disorderly first impression.
Beside him, Acatus and several other Undead were also curiously looking around.
This was their first time visiting another Life Planet, their first time seeing the world beyond Erin Continent.
"Master, is this the new world... So the people living here are the Aliens you mentioned before?"
Zhang Xiaoman thought for a moment and replied:
"You could say that, but to be precise, we are the Aliens now."
He paused a bit, realizing this statement might not be accurate.
The translation of "Alien" here means "unknown extraterrestrial creature."
Considering this is a space civilization, using "unknown extraterrestrial creature" to describe themselves seems a bit inappropriate.
In the eyes of these Skull Star people, our identity as Aliens probably feels no different than being treated as outsiders when traveling to other cities from Water Blue Star.
Beside him, Ziwei was also observing the surroundings.
However, unlike Zhang Xiaoman and others, whose feelings were more of a newcomer’s curiosity, her eyes conveyed a sense of nostalgia from not coming here for a long time.
"Skull Star, I seem to not have been here for a long time... If I remember correctly, the last time I came here was to capture a group of Reapers. Was it fifty years ago, or sixty?"
Hearing her words, Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed.
He knew this woman was actually much older than she looked, but he didn’t ask her exact age, surely over a hundred years old, at least she shouldn’t be younger than McCarthy.
At this moment, a faint yellow beam of light suddenly shot towards the front of the ship, connecting to the outer body.
Immediately, the Lessentara began moving along with the beam of light, slowly heading towards a platform at the edge of a passage.
"This is a tractor beam, don’t resist, follow its guidance to reach the docking port."
Ziwei reminded them.
Soon, under the guidance of the tractor beam, the ship stopped at a platform with a cliff-like design.
A staircase stretched out from the platform, connecting to the ship’s hatch.
"Alright, we’re here, let’s go out."
Ziwei stood up, leading the way to the ship’s exit.
Zhang Xiaoman took a deep breath to calm his somewhat excited mind and followed along.
Behind him were Acatus and a group of Undead.
At this moment, they were all dressed in gray and white work clothes. As crew members of this ship, they also needed to disembark to register, so that they could have their own identity in the Dark Star Alliance in the future.
"This voyage is over, welcome to Skull Star, and wish you a pleasant journey."
Outside, on top of the platform’s hall, the welcome message was broadcast in the common language.
