At this mont, the green light was still in front of Tom’s robot army.
Its volu had already shrunk to only half of what it was before, and it was still faintly rippling, seemingly trembling constantly.
Tom manipulated the robots to send an electromagnetic wave signal: "Are you an intelligent being? Who are you? Why are you in my spaceship?"
The green light solidified as a whole for a mont, then rippled again, and another electromagnetic wave signal was sent out: "You can understand what I’m saying?!"
"Yes. Now, answer my questions."
The subsequent signals seed to carry a hint of urgency: "I am ¥#%#, from the Warm Star. I secretly left ho to play, but I accidentally went a little too far, and now I can’t find my way ho.
Space is too cold, and the pulling force is too great. I’m cold, hungry, and in pain. I happened to see your fleet, and this spaceship is slightly warr inside, and the pulling force is also a little smaller. I, I just wanted to co in and rest for a while.
I have no ill intentions. I didn’t an to damage your things. Please, can you let rest here for a while? Don’t drive away, and don’t prick anymore. It really hurts.
When I’m well rested, I’ll leave on my own."
¥#%#?
The na this strange creature called itself seed to have no corresponding word in human language. If one were to try to understand it, it probably described a certain color, with a aning closer to "azure blue."
Then let’s call you Blue.
As for the Warm Star...
"What kind of planet is this? Perhaps it’s a star with a higher temperature? I just don’t know what it ans by ’warm.’
If it’s relative to a cold dwarf planet, then minus one hundred degrees Celsius could also be considered warm.
However, it said the living spaceship was slightly warr, so the temperature of that Warm Star should be higher than here. Perhaps it’s a planet relatively close to a star? Or the inner layers of a gas giant? Or is it a star? A white dwarf? It couldn’t be a neutron star, could it?"
Tom pondered rapidly.
"What is ’pulling force’? Is there such a thing as pulling force in space? The pulling force is smaller in the living spaceship? Hmm... I think I understand.
It should be that its own structure has a tendency to expand, and without gravity in space, its uncontrolled expansion is what it perceives as the so-called pulling force. And in the living spaceship, there is approximately 0.8 tis Earth’s gravity, which can counteract so of its own expansion tendency, which is what it ans by the pulling force being smaller.
If 0.8 tis gravity is still considered small by it, then the Warm Star it ntioned is unlikely to be a rocky planet. It’s either a gas giant or a star.
This intelligent life adapted to a higher gravity environnt, possessing a certain anti-gravity characteristic... perhaps it can be called a Gravity Life?
Overall, this Gravity Life, which calls itself Blue, cos from a planet with high gravity and is relatively warm. It accidentally left its ho, wandered in space, and when it was cold, hungry, and in pain, it happened to encounter and decided to stay here and not leave."
Having understood these things, Tom, though still on high alert, felt a little more at ease.
"Tell about your ho, that Warm Star, in detail."
Blue rippled, sending out another electromagnetic wave signal: "The pulling force there is very small, and it’s very warm. Life there is very comfortable. It’s very, very big. My seven fathers, six mothers, and many relatives and friends are all there. We live peacefully there.
Wuwuwu, it’s all my fault for being too playful. I haven’t been back for so long, they must be very worried about ." (ToT)
Cough, cough, cough...
Seven fathers and six mothers? This strange life form seems to reproduce through multiple individuals interbreeding?
Hmm, there are all sorts of wonders in the universe, and this thod of reproduction is also normal, not strange at all, one shouldn’t look at them with colored glasses...
After secretly admonishing himself, Tom pondered the ssage again and found that there was no decipherable information within it.
The pulling force being very small seed to imply high gravity, but how high is high?
Very warm, how high does the temperature have to be to be considered warm?
Blue seed to have no concept of these data and could only describe them broadly, unable to provide precise descriptions.
Tom thought for a mont, then brought over a large plasma heating device, directly raising the temperature to 3,000K—this is roughly equivalent to the surface temperature of a low-mass red dwarf, or the temperature within a few thousand kiloters of a gas giant.
"Try this temperature, do you feel warm? How does it compare to your ho?"
The green light rippled, extending slightly: "Wow, it’s much warr than now, thank you.
But it’s still too cold compared to my ho."
"Not a red dwarf? Then..."
Tom directly raised the temperature to 6,000K, which is roughly equivalent to the surface temperature of the Sun.
"Now?"
"Still a bit cold."
Tom simply raised the temperature directly to 10,000K. At this point, Blue said with joy: "This is about right."
10,000K...
This is roughly equivalent to the surface temperature of a massive blue giant star, or the temperature tens of thousands of kiloters deep within a gas giant.
However, temperature alone cannot determine the type of its ho planet. But there is another indicator that can.
Gravity.
"Now, co with to another spaceship. I will simulate different gravities, uh, pulling forces, there, and you can feel them."
Blue was very obedient: "Okay."
A large scientific research vessel was allocated by Tom.
This scientific research vessel had only one large scientific device: a high-gravity simulation device.
Through Strong Nuclear materials and magnetic field confinent, its payload end could rotate around the core at extrely high speeds, creating super-strong gravity through centrifugal force, thereby verifying the reliability of the spaceship’s structure or studying material changes under high-gravity environnts.
In extre cases, it could even simulate gravity as high as a thousand tis that of Earth.
The rippling green light easily penetrated the fully enclosed spaceship armor and also the energy shield covering the entire spaceship.
It seed that neither solid matter nor energy shields had any effect on it.
Under Tom’s guidance, it arrived at the scientific research vessel. At this mont, its internal high-gravity simulation device had also been activated, instantly raising the internal gravity to approximately 50 tis that of Earth.
"Go try it."
"Okay. Hmm... the pulling force is much smaller than before, but it’s still too, too great, nowhere near my ho planet."
Upon receiving this ssage, Tom’s heart gradually grew heavy.
"Even 50 tis Earth’s gravity is still too small?"
