The Legendary Mechanic

Chapter 1094: 1094 Pandora's Box

Views:

Harrison Moore, a famous interstellar free explorer, has been keen on excavating relics and pursuing the unknown all his life. Although his strength is low, he can always miraculously save his life. Over the years, he has discovered countless historical relics and left dozens of books. His spirit of being brave and adventurous (as long as he does not die, he will die) has attracted a large number of followers in the universe, who regard him as a spiritual leader and a street lamp in life.

During the World Tree War, Harrison was old and frail and in semi-retirement. The three major civilizations were the ones who were discovered. They were raided by the World Tree civilization, and they were caught off guard at the beginning, and suffered heavy losses. Because they do not know the origin of the enemy, all civilizations that have explored the universe are basically only beaten in the initial stage. They are completely on the defensive and can only passively resist the steady stream of invaders. Planets are occupied by the World Tree and used as nutrients.

The three major civilizations have tried their best to collect clues about the World Tree civilization, the most critical of which is the location of the World Tree body.

The World Tree itself is a cosmic treasure. The World Tree civilization has already obtained it in the era of farming and fire, so it has formed a distorted form of civilization. All the development of civilization revolves around the World Tree. Countless people have tried their best to nourish and enhance this cosmic treasure. .

Due to the specificity of World Tree, only by finding its body can the problem be solved at the root. Otherwise, no matter how many invaders are killed, World Tree can use nutrients from countless planets to transform and nurture more troops.

The body of the World Tree is rooted in the secondary dimension world, hidden very deep, and like the former Netherland dimension, it is invisible and closed. In that era, all the people in the explored universe were basically soldiers, and many volunteer explorers organized themselves to search for the secondary dimension, and Harrison also came back and joined it.

Because of a series of coincidences, he was the first to discover the secondary dimension where the World Tree body was located, recorded the dimensional coordinates before sacrificing, and threw it into the space storm of the secondary dimension world.

This coordinate is like a drifting bottle floating in the vast sea, ups and downs, and finally fell into the hands of the three major civilizations.

—These are the images of Harrison in his later life.

In this era, Harrison is still just a young and new explorer. His exuberant curiosity and expedition drive him to give up the opportunity to inherit the billions of assets of the consortium and resolutely step into this promising industry. .

As a newcomer to this expedition and archaeology team, Harrison's intuition is obviously not very convincing, and all the teammates present have the thief not to leave empty space... Cough, the spirit of getting to the bottom of the question, and no accident ignored Harrison's warning.

Harrison had no choice, and his curiosity overwhelmed his vigilance, so he had to keep his vague worries in his heart and continue to follow the team.

A scavenger spacecraft passed through the high-altitude sandstorm, hovered 100 meters above, and dropped a multi-functional ground-penetrating vehicle. Art processing.

Everyone boarded the ground drilling vehicle, followed the instructions of the detection radar, broke through the ground, dived all the way, and quickly approached the underground cavity on the map.

Because of the existence of this kind of underground remains for too long, the structure of the crust is extremely unstable, and there is generally a risk of collapse. Therefore, scavengers will not directly drill into the passage from the side, and the first choice is to take the main entrance.

Whoa!

Soon, the tip of the rig finally penetrated the rock formation and entered a cavity. All the team members stepped down, turned on the searchlights, and observed the surrounding environment.

Here is an underground cave with traces of artificial excavation. It is about seven or eight meters high. At the end of the cave is a closed metal door, which is suspected to be the entrance to this underground relic.

The short detective trotted over, took out the instrument and scanned the metal door, muttering: "It is well preserved, there is not much sign of rust, this is a high-strength alloy material, according to the rough detection results, this material is synthesized The technology is at least starting at the galaxy level, but there is no matching material record in the database…”

Hearing that, the more excited everyone is, the higher the level of the lost civilization, the more things in the ruins that are eligible to be sold on the black market.

However, this also represents more unknown risks.

"Is there an energy reaction in it?" the captain asked.

"Let me see... Well, not at all, I guess the energy here is exhausted, and even if there are traps or defensive measures, they are all paralyzed."

"Then go in and have a look." The captain instructed: "Everyone be careful later, no one is allowed to lift the shield without my order."

A group of people used a laser to cut open the door, crept in, and groped their way forward. The route inside was intricate and the environment looked like a large underground military base.

Harrison walked over to a sign, wiped the dust off it, and asked the translator to read the text, which turned out to be unrecognizable.

"There is no record of this text in the database, and it can be determined that this is the remains of a civilization that has not been discovered so far." Harrison spoke on the channel.

"Today is really a lucky day, no wonder Ah Xiang finally responded to my daily greetings for several months in the morning." The short prober was very excited.

"What did she say?" Harrison wondered.

"She said yes."

Harrison: "…Come on."

Everyone was chatting and exploring, but they were careful all the way, but found that there was no danger, so they boldly searched each room, but only found living facilities, no special equipment, and no text documents left, even energy and network hosts. No, not even a single defense facility, it looks like the base has long since been abandoned and everything has been emptied.

The flames of excitement in everyone's heart seemed to be quenched by a basin of cold water.

"Isn't it, I found an unknown relic, but there was no valuable gain. Did you make a trip for nothing?" The short detective wailed.

"It's not in vain, at least we have discovered a new language, an unknown civilization that once existed." Harrison raised the translator in his hand, and he had recorded all the signs on the road. down.

"This kind of archaeological results are useless, do we really think we are historians?" Someone couldn't help complaining: "If it weren't for the purpose of digging up valuable things, who would want to come to such a ghost place."

The scavengers don't have much ethics, their patience is quickly exhausted, the search speed is getting faster and faster, and it doesn't take long for only the last room to be left, which is at the core of the bottom of the base.

Everyone opened the door and walked in, taking a breath.

I saw a triangle with a height of about three or four meters embedded in the ground groove in the center of the room. A piece of embossing, above which is a display screen.

There is only this thing in the room, nothing else, like an exclusive warehouse.

"Haha, I finally got something."

"What is this?"

The crowd gathered around in surprise, touching here and there, although they didn't know what it was, but looking at the appearance, as long as it was packaged, it wouldn't be a problem to sell it on the black market.

The short detective came to the display screen of the triangle and pressed it a few times, but there was no response. He fumbled a few times and suddenly found a movable board next to the display screen. After opening it, there was a socket, which seemed to be used for charging.

"Hmm... It's the first time I've seen an interface of this shape, but there's nothing wrong with it." The short prober pondered for a while, took out the instrument and got busy, and quickly transformed an energy transmission line that fits the socket.

He was about to recharge the triangular device when Harrison, who had been frowning beside him, said subconsciously.

"Wait a minute!"

Everyone turned to look at him.

"What happened to you?"

"I... I think it's better to be cautious. No one knows what this device does. What if it's a weapon that runs out of energy?"

Harrison looked hesitant. When he saw this triangle, he felt inexplicably heart palpitations, as if there was a voice in his heart warning him that this thing was dangerous, and his innate intuition had never been stronger.

"Don't worry, I detected it just now. This is actually a sophisticated one-time safe device. It will be destroyed when you open it, but the innermost layer is a material that isolates detection. I don't know what is stored." The short detector did not turn his head. said.

As he said that, he directly inserted the plug into the interface and input a weak energy, the display screen of the triangle device lit up, and a password input interface popped up.

The captain leaned over and glanced, "Can the code be deciphered?"

The short detector took out another device and fiddled with it for a while, and said with certainty: "The password of this safety device changes in real time, and it must be connected to the quantum network, and then use virtual technology to decipher it... The tools I have now are not good, but as long as Using a deciphering device with higher computing power, it can definitely be opened."

"Is that so..."

The captain hesitated for a while, then said: "Then why don't we open it, you said, this thing is a one-time thing, if the things stored in it are not valuable, we will lose money instead, it is better to put this safe directly. Enter the black market auction and let others draw the lottery, anyway, this form is also very common on the black market... "

"Can this kind of thing be discussed later?" Harrison was inexplicably fidgeting, "Let's get out of here, I have a bad intuition..."

"When did your intuition get better?"

The captain glared at him, but did not refute his proposal, and beckoned everyone to transport the device to the drilling rig.

There is only this valuable thing in the ruins, and the group left with the triangular device without nostalgia, all the way back to the spaceship.

Suddenly, one of the team members said thoughtfully:

"It's really strange. It stands to reason that since this planet has relics left by an unknown civilization, there should be other traces. The detection result is only this one. This is not reasonable. Could it be that civilization came here? Only one underground facility has been dug on every planet?"

"That's right, I felt a little strange just now." Another person echoed.

At this time, the short detective glanced at the radar screen, snorted, and said in surprise: "Captain, the ruins just collapsed!"

Everyone hurried over to take a look, the underground cavity in the picture had been filled up and disappeared without a trace, and they couldn't go back if they wanted to.

"really weird… "

The captain murmured, shook his head, and ordered: "Forget it, leave that alone, mark this planet, and let's go to the nearest black market planet to estimate the price of our harvest today."

Hearing this, everyone didn't think too much, and took action one after another, driving the spacecraft to leave the planet.

Harrison was the only one standing in front of the porthole, looking at the smaller and smaller planet in his sight, and suddenly his back felt a little chilly.

All kinds of signs gave him a feeling, as if the mission of this strange relic was to store this triangular device exclusively.

And the ruins collapsed immediately after they left, as if they had been silently waiting for outsiders to take it away...

Harrison couldn't help but glance back.

In his sight, the triangular device lay quietly in the rear cabin, like a Pandora's box waiting to be opened.

The opening ceremony of the Black Star Cup was held perfectly, and the qualifiers were in full swing the next day. The legion became very lively. Hundreds of millions of members were active in the arena, which also drove the enthusiasm of the audience in the universe.

Because there are so many events, each media provides live broadcast and video review functions around the clock. The audience can freely adjust the camera and choose to watch any event, venue, or player. Countless audiences watch with communication devices all day long.

The ratings of the Black Star Cup in the entire universe are maintained at a very high level. Currently, the average ratings in each region are second only to the news broadcasts of the three major civilizations or local civilizations.

The organization department of the Black Star Cup, which was established more than two months ago, has collected statistics. The projects with the highest ratings, in addition to the various combat events in the three groups of B-level, A-level, and inextinguishables, are followed by entertainment. There are many competitions, especially talent drafts, singing and dancing talk shows, and countless interstellar citizens are happy to see those rare superpowers showing off their talents on the screen.

Even many talented players have attracted a large wave of admirers, and there are even more audiences on the Internet arguing about the pros and cons of each player... Facts have proved that no matter what era, the draft mode is always topical.

The projects with the lowest ratings were not as expected by Han Xiao. They were really technical competitions, such as the pile of mechanical maintenance, mechanical modification, and blueprint drawing competitions that Leonard applied for…

There are still very few people who are willing to watch technical house mechanics.

However, Han Xiao didn’t care, those technical projects were regarded as pure selection, to explore potential stocks in various fields for the Legion, and replenish fresh blood.

The promotion channel of the legion has always been relatively clear, the rank is linked to the position, and meritorious deeds are also acceptable, and the Black Star Cup is equivalent to providing another shortcut to ascending. Because such a model allows many people to see more opportunities to inject new vitality into the Legion.

Although players have exclusive groups, most of them are more interested in participating in normal tier groups, running over and having fun with NPCs.

As the evolution badge shines in low-level group battles, more and more players have begun to purchase this item, and sales have skyrocketed in a short period of time, and the momentum has risen wildly.

Using the Evolution Badge in events below the b level gives players a huge advantage, but it's not a must-win. The aberration is strong in melee combat, and its weaknesses are also obvious. Magic and mind resistance plummet, and its short hands make it extremely easy to be kited, and it will continue to lose blood.

Against some psychics and magicians, occasionally distorted players were pressed on the ground and rubbed repeatedly.

In the b-level group, the role of the evolution badge is not so strong, and the b-level power user has the strength to confront the extreme aberration body.

Hundreds of flowers are blooming here, and the competition is in full swing. Compared with the lively legion, the factions of other players in Glittering World are much deserted.

Players from all over the world have red eyes, biting handkerchiefs, and watching nearly 10 million legion players enjoying themselves with envy, jealousy and hatred.

Not to mention participating, we are not even eligible to bet!

The "conformity" is divided into five "people". Most people have this kind of psychology, and this effect is more obvious in the group of players who are chasing excitement and fun.

Everyone is having such a good time, how can you do it without me!

Compared with the faction war incident more than half a year ago, more ordinary players from various countries have been shaken by the Black Star Cup League. With this hoe, there are new holes in the corners of many factions.

Even the Infinite Consortium has been dug up a lot, but Sorokin is very low-key now, saying that he doesn't matter.

The most painful thing is the foreign clubs of other camps. They clearly did nothing this time, but they had to watch ordinary players lose again. They couldn't even find a reason to keep them. They just felt like crying without tears.

How can this be done, without you!

Do you have to force us to join the party

Black Star Legion! You are deceiving too much!

Clay figurines have three points of anger, you have the kind to force me again!

Force me again, and I'll really join you!
