Chapter 346: Similar to Humans
Just when everyone was thinking about this conjecture, the computer suddenly screened out several pictures: In a half-collapsed bungalow, a vague shadow emerged from the glass window.
A... corpse!
This body was different from those found in the wild because it was found indoors and seemed to be wrapped in something.
According to computer calculations, it is likely to be intelligent life!
"It's not easy to find the corpses of intelligent life. It took more than ten years for them to rot. Only under special conditions can they be well preserved..." a scientist said enthusiastically.
Several nearby six-legged robots received the order and quickly crawled towards the house.
They got in through a certain hole and examined the body carefully...
The six-legged robot is less than the size of a basketball. It is an upgraded version of the previous spider robot and is more flexible and maneuverable. Their small bodies contain various exquisite detection devices that can complete preliminary detection tasks.
However, their strength was not great. The three robots worked together to turn the entire corpse over.
The moment the body was touched, a bunch of colorful insects crawled out from underneath. Suddenly the whole room was filled with smoke, both red and white, flowing all over the floor.
From the screen, some bugs could be faintly seen squirming inside, and then ran out from an expanded gap.
Everyone frowned together, and even held their breath tightly, as if they could smell the rotten stench through a screen...
Many young soldiers shrugged their noses in discomfort and felt their stomachs churn. How could there be such a disgusting scene in the Noah...
In "Titan Z", Security Minister Xu Yunjin saw him and immediately frowned, feeling very dissatisfied.
In fact, he had a similar feeling to Yu Yifeng. These young people were still too young. The entire group of soldiers... well, how should I put it?
You still need more training and training. As a soldier, how can you be afraid of nausea?
However, the older generation was not afraid. Yu Yifeng stared at the screen and studied it carefully.
This corpse is about 1.5 meters long. Due to the special environment here, it has been highly dried and the skin is like a mummy, so it is barely preserved until now.
People can barely recognize its shape, but the specific facial appearance cannot be seen... The corpse is also wrapped in a layer of colorful fibers, it should be clothes, right? Because it has been so long, it looks shabby.
"I wonder if it is an intelligent life or a domesticated pet? Just like some of our dogs, they can also wear clothes, right?" A scientist muttered from behind: "If it is a pet, it doesn't have much value."
It has slender limbs and has no hair except for a few parts such as its head.
As for the face, there are two eyes, one mouth, and the one in the middle is...the nose, right?
"The whole shape looks a bit human?"
Looking at this picture, Yu Yifeng was shocked. He even felt that he had returned to a murder scene in the earth's time!
After all, when I was a soldier, I had seen similar scenes, and now I vaguely recall them. When a human dies and the body is dried, it seems to be like this, right?
Of course, he knew clearly that this was an alien place, not the earth...
He turned around and exchanged glances with several veteran members of the special forces, and found that they also had suspicious expressions. As for the others... they have never seen human corpses, and they don't have this emotion.
Oh, by the way, there is a beaver-like tail hanging from the buttocks of this corpse, which is quite different from humans.
For such a period of time, many soldiers and scientists have begun to hold back their nausea and carry out their tasks.
A robot turned over and over, inspecting the various marks on the body. Additional robots began to inspect the room.
The things in the room were very messy and scattered on the ground. It must have been greatly shaken. However, from the layout of the entire room, you can still see the original decoration style, which is very exotic.
People can even vaguely guess the specific uses of these layouts, which are curtains, beds, cabinets, and other things... These furniture are very similar to human beings. It seems that they also need to rest and cook food with flames. .
"Can the specific cause and time of death be detected?" Yu Yifeng couldn't help but make a satellite phone call and asked.
One of the experts wiped his sweat and said: "We are trying. But the detection tool that comes with the hexapod is too simple and can only estimate an approximate time of death..."
"About ten years... ten to fifteen years!"
"As for the specific cause of death... it probably cannot be determined. After such a long time, the body has been severely deformed and bloated, unless there are particularly obvious features..."
The distance of 900,000 kilometers is still a bit long. When it comes and goes, the signal transmission takes 6 seconds. The delay is very serious and sometimes intermittent.
Yu Yifeng nodded and tried to keep his words short.
While talking, people made another major discovery: the robot searched for useful things from the ruins of the house.
A picture, a family portrait hanging on the wall!
From this photo, people can know the general appearance of this civilized individual.
When the photo was displayed on the screen, everyone felt terrified! Not just the frigates in the front, but also the scientists in the Deep Space behind.
Even Yu Yifeng's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat continued to pour out from his back, as if it was incredible!
From the photos, it can be seen that these intelligent creatures really look too much like humans!
They have brown hair on their heads, almost no eyebrows above their eyes, and their skin is an unhealthy grayish-white color. From the perspective of physiognomy, their nose bridge and cheekbones are more prominent than humans, and their chins are sharper, like a melon-seed face.
Of course, from the current aesthetic point of view of humans, these creatures are not beautiful. But it is undeniable that they are still very similar to humans, with only slight differences, like another...different race!
This is the most human-like species that humans have ever seen!
...More like monkeys, gorillas, apes and the like!
This makes everyone feel inexplicably uncomfortable. If this kind of creature really mixes among humans, dresses up its face and hides its tail... Without people knowing, it may really be able to get away with it.
Yu Yifeng and several scientists around him looked at each other, and a burst of noise came from the side...
After a long time, they finally put away their shock.
Well, this creature just looks like a human, it's no big deal...
The universe is so big that there are all kinds of wonders. Maybe... there are creatures that look exactly like humans?
"It just looks like... It's no big deal."
"From a biological point of view, this similarity in appearance is not too strange... Although humans are not perfect, they are also the best on the road of evolution, the species walking in front of life, and the object of imitation and learning..."
"The human body is better at using tools, and many body structures, such as walking upright and long limbs, are justified. It is also possible that the evolutionary path is different and the destination is the same..."
"As for the sparse hair of this creature, it is also easy to explain. The environment here is hot, with an average temperature of more than 30 degrees, and generally no hair is needed... You see, other creatures seem to have very little hair."
A biologist thought for a long time and reluctantly found a reason for himself, asking everyone not to make such a fuss.
"There is a similar phenomenon on Earth. Penguins and great auks are typical examples of convergent evolution. One is in the southern hemisphere and the other is in the northern hemisphere, at two different points on the Earth. But they look very similar."
"Horseshoe crabs and horseshoe crab worms are two completely different species, but they look almost the same..."
