Seemingly Quite Sincere
In the video footage, people saw the 'Mining Area Patrol' whom they had only heard of.
The alien's overall appearance is somewhat like an enlarged chicken, but instead of a pointed beak, it has a round, tubular mouth. Its head is enormous, looking somewhat like a fish head, and it has a long tail that is longer than its upper body.
No obvious hair was found at either the head or the tail.
When standing, the entire body leans downwards from head to tail, appearing to be at an angle of about sixty degrees. Because the main branches are covered with what looks like metallic 'clothing,' the genitals are not visible.
However, the toes are easily identifiable because of the shape of the "shoe".
The Mining Area Patrol was wearing a shoe that was clearly divided into four feet, three in the front and one in the back. Judging from the distribution, the back toe should be like a human thumb, opposing the toes in front.
It is a Sentient Life with gripping power on its feet.
Like humans, they have two hands, but on the Moke Star People, they resemble the hands of a small dinosaur. The four fingers on each hand are not arranged side by side, but rather oppose each other, like the claws of a claw Mechanical Arm.
Aside from the one round eye on its head that's somewhat cute, the Moke Star People completely defy human aesthetics.
Especially the round mouthpiece that looks like a long tube, it really does look a bit creepy.
However, this does align with what was said before; it is indeed a Carbon-based life, and not an arthropod with bones and flesh, but rather flesh and bones like a human, definitely a body of flesh and blood.
Since it's just a video recording, humans can only see its appearance.
"I have two points to make. First, videos can be faked. Second, I remember this Mining Area Patrol saying that after reaching the Level 2 Civilization, the sources of energy have been greatly expanded, and there is basically no need to worry about energy issues. But now he says that there are problems with energy. Isn't that a contradiction?" After reviewing the information and video materials, physicist Liu Miyan the first to speak. He was a straightforward person and said what he thought.
"That's right. Since Level 2 Civilization has already achieved Heavy Nuclear Fusion, how could it lack energy? That thing just burns rocks!" A social studies scholar suddenly realized. He had been focusing on figuring out the Mining Area Patrol's thoughts, and if Liu Miyan hadn't reminded him, he would have really overlooked this obvious loophole.
"The video footage can indeed be synthesized; that's for sure. We can do it easily, let alone them, who are Level 3 Civilization." Zhao Youqin concluded on Liu Miyan's first point.
Then, the experts present discussed it in hushed tones, but the discussion generally revolved around the two questions raised by Liu Miyan.
"In that case, let's see what they have to say. Oh, and let's not talk about the video." Yue Yuan tapped the table a few times with his sword finger, stopping everyone's discussion.
There's no need to discuss video compositing; it's pointless. Humans know it can be faked, so there's no need to act like you're trying to deceive me.
This message was sent out again, and then everyone present waited in discussion for another half hour.
"It's understandable that you have these questions; I haven't explained things clearly. Yes, our Moke Star Civilization has indeed achieved Heavy Nuclear Fusion technology, but what you don't know is that Heavy Nuclear Fusion reactors are extremely large and cannot evade the detection of Nanobots consciousness entities."
Moreover, the base I am in is just a mining site and does not have a supporting heavy nuclear facility. On the contrary, the energy source for my base is actually a cold Fusion Reactor.
Actually, I did think about asking you guys to provide me with fuel, but Cold Nuclear Fusion is different from thermonuclear Nuclear Fusion. It's not enough to just provide hydrogen. Its fuel is a condensed matter, which you can think of as a Quantum Material, a substance that can be used as fuel for Cold Nuclear Fusion after initial processing.
Unfortunately, the mining site I'm at doesn't have the capability to produce this substance, and as a Mining Area Patrol, I lack the knowledge to manufacture it. Even if I had the relevant knowledge and manufacturing process, your technology wouldn't allow you to produce it.
Previously, all our mining sites relied on energy supplies transported from outside. I brought a batch with me when I arrived, but it's now almost completely depleted to sustain my 20,000-year hibernation.
After reading the 'Mining Area Patrol's' reply, many people around the conference table who didn't know much about physics looked at Liu Miyan, hoping he could say something.
Liu Miyan also felt the gazes of many sociologists. He stroked his beard and said, "The Cold Nuclear Fusion that this 'Mining Area Patrol' mentioned has indeed exceeded our technological scope, but it has not exceeded the theoretical scope. As early as the 20th century, we humans proposed the concept of Cold Nuclear Fusion."
Of course, it was just a concept; theoretical research made little progress until the 22nd century, and the contemporary scientific community had almost condemned this technological approach. Unexpectedly, this technology has actually been realized.
"Even according to our current theories, achieving Heavy Nuclear Fusion is more reliable than Cold Nuclear Fusion." Liu Miyan shook his head, a thoughtful look on his face, and then looked at the sociology researchers who were listening attentively. "As for Quantum Material, they are easy to understand. We have actually seen such materials before. They are the superconducting materials that Xu Zhenyi's team developed recently. You could say that the superconducting phenomenon is actually the first quantum macroscopic effect that we humans have observed."
This analogy is just to help you understand. The kind of material the 'Mining Area Patrol' mentioned, which is both condensed matter and Quantum Material, is something we humans certainly don't exist, and we have absolutely no idea what it is.
It doesn't matter if you don't understand the specifics. All that matters is that everyone present is certain that such a thing could possibly exist. That would be enough to determine whether the 'Mining Area Patrol' was telling the truth or not.
Yes, speculation! Because there is a huge gap in the level of the civilizations to which the two sides belong, their knowledge reserves are bound to be at different levels. Under such circumstances, even if the 'Mining Area Patrol' is lying, it would be very difficult for humans to detect it.
Therefore, we can only speculate based on limited information and human scientific theories.
"In any case, this Mining Area Patrol seems quite sincere, and he really doesn't want to die, or he doesn't want the memories of the Moke Star Civilization to disappear from the universe forever," Yue Yuan said with a smile.
His attitude gradually shifted from complete disbelief to increasing belief, convinced that such a 'Mining Area Patrol' truly existed and was seeking help from humanity.
My grades have slipped, I need your votes!
