In the flash of bright cutting beams, another metal gate blocked in front of our eyes was dug out. It is obvious that Pandora cannot continue to bombard this place with her hand cannon, so the work of opening the way is left to Except for the accompanying self-discipline machines, although these little guys for engineering are not very intelligent, they are good at taking on almost all complicated tasks, including finding paths, opening doors, and mines, and entertaining Qianqian. We've advanced to the second level of workstations, and from there it seems time to discover something.
Nothing valuable was found on the first floor. It should be the residence and living quarters of soldiers and scientific researchers who were originally stationed here. There are also some empty temporary storage rooms. No research facilities were found in those empty rooms. , and there is no important data recording equipment, only two or three damaged data terminals were found in one of the living compartments, which were seriously malfunctioning and could not be opened at all. The accompanying engineers sent them to the mothership laboratory, hoping that the scientists who stayed there A little information can be found from it, but it is estimated that it will not be too important. The second floor seems to have entered the working area of the workstation, and some isolation doors with warning signs can be seen in the corridor. This is probably the area where the "general threat research" related to the abyss is carried out. In this place, we Of course, the only possible research project that can be thought of is the Deep Dive Project.
A group of people passed through the hole in the gate and came to a suspected research site. This is a hexagonal hall: this is the same as most research rooms. The ground in the center of the hall is slightly sunken. It seems that a set of important equipment was originally placed there, but now only some unexplained connection ports and crystal touch panels are left in the depression, where the original equipment was packed. I left. Based on the completeness of the remaining connecting ports and the fact that the site was not very messy, I judged that the staff who evacuated here should be orderly. Although this workstation was abandoned due to an accident, it seems that The situation is not so urgent that it is too serious. Everyone has checked many rooms and warehouses. Most of the things inside have been taken away, and the scene left behind is basically intact. Well, this is for those who evacuated back then. A good sign, but for those of us who came to explore...
"Nimma, all the good things are gone..." Bingtis sat down on a console next to me, and said everyone's aspirations in frustration. The female hooligan typed from the console, "At least don't destroy the site of the ruins? You don't think it's dirty where you sit?"
Bingtis patted her body carelessly: "It's okay, my clothes are a magic weapon, and the highest attribute is not to be dusty."
... Presumably everyone has not forgotten the definition of artifacts, so the little knowledge about why artifacts glow will not be explained here.
I took Qianqian, who was full of curiosity and might run away at any time, and looked around in this empty hall. The energy storm outside and the collapsing universe seemed to have become another world far away, and I couldn't feel it in this quiet place. There was no movement outside. In this ancient building with a history of tens of thousands of years, everyone can still be properly protected. I have to say that the things made by the Apostles of Xiling are quite outrageous in terms of durability. Before this hall was abandoned, it should have been a place similar to the sample analysis room. The sunken ground in the center of it looked like the base of a gravity-free shelf, and around it, you could see many controls fixed on the ground. This is more reminiscent of the terminals displaying data in the sample analysis room. And above the hall, a large number of hexagonal crystal structures like a honeycomb can be seen on the ceiling, extending to the place where it connects with the wall, and then submerged behind the alloy layer of the wall. Scanning shows that this hexagonal crystal structure wraps The entire room, even the inside of the gate that was cut just now has crystals of the same composition, they are some kind of isolation means, used to completely isolate the samples in the analysis room, and the space barrier around the analysis room fails ( For example, now, all equipment is down), after that, provide a buffer time for the people around to evacuate. From this, it can be judged that the things studied here are definitely not safe things. It is very likely that the things salvaged from the abyss by the deep diving plan at that time were put in this kind of place for research.
It's a pity that the space barrier generators around the workstation are already broken. We can't confirm whether there are other places with higher security levels in this huge building, and whether they have been replaced by the space generators. Shutting down and disappearing in the collapse process of those artificial spaces, leaving everyone only this kind of empty research hall: this must not be the place for the highest level sample analysis, although it seems to be well protected, but I know that the Shadow City What is the research center like? Those highest-level sample analysis rooms will be completely placed in an environment that is completely isolated from the normal space. Once the space barrier generators, including the backup units, are all shut down, the analysis rooms will be directly thrown into the void. Destroy: Only this kind of decisive security method can be used to analyze the absolute danger that is connected to the abyss, and the security level of the hall in front of us is obviously not enough.
This workstation is different from the fully enclosed imperial ruins that I have come into contact with before. Everything here is covered with a thick layer of powder. The composition of the powder is very complex, including metals, minerals, and very fine crystals. , while none of them are present in the list of substances commonly used by the Empire. And as far as I know, most of the things made by the apostles of Xiling will not be weathered—their main building materials are not "substances" in the normal definition, but controlled by the host of Xiling through information, The "ideal material" created out of thin air (this can be known by referring to the process of Xi Lingzhu's construction base, those buildings "drawn" by the builders out of thin air, of course, the construction materials will not be mined from where), Although these materials may be close to some known substances, you will never find the exact same molecular structure in any normal universe. These ideal materials are endowed with special properties to avoid weathering. Fatigue and changes in physical and chemical properties are also important reasons for the long life of Xiling equipment. In the past, as long as the imperial relics we have come into contact with are in an absolutely closed state, there will be no weathering phenomenon inside, and there will be no such serious "dust accumulation" here. Where did these powders come from
A senior technician speculated that since these powders are not on the list of commonly used substances in the empire, and this is a place similar to the sample analysis room, they are probably samples from that year—so some dust samples were collected and sent to the scientific research ship as well. Actually, but to be honest, these samples are less reliable than those damaged data terminals. I really don't think any expert can recover anything from this dust. It's as difficult as giving you a grain of sand in the Sahara Let you recover the northern hemisphere is a level...
"Speaking of which, Xingchen, you told me that a suspected deep diving place of the old empire was found here." When the staff was busy tossing the worn-out equipment, hoping to find a start-up individual, I chatted with Father God, "You guys How did you know there was a deep dive here? It seems that before we came here, you didn't even know that there was an energy storm area here?"
Father God shrugged: "We have dealt with the abyss for many years: it is many times longer than the history of the apostles of Xiling. We have a special method for the detection of the abyss. The detection team at that time was sure that there was an abyss here. The wreckage of the world reacts, and there are traces of the activities of the old empire near this wreckage. Later in the detection, we sensed that the abyss reaction in the wreckage of this world is under the control of a certain orderly state, which shows that it is a controlled state. Deliberately preserved research objects. The ruins of the old empire, the preserved samples of the abyss, and when you think of the deep dive operation of the old empire that you mentioned to me many times, I associate these things together. But it is depressing Yes, that's where our detection ended up: being able to sense the existence of the abyss, but it's completely hidden by your inverting technology, which is really a headache, although I guess the children should be able to find it in time. This universe is a way to end the phase reversal, but after much deliberation, I decided that it would be more convenient to find you directly.”
How should I put it, I have to sigh, the experience and background accumulated by the Protoss are really enviable. In terms of experience in dealing with the abyss, I am afraid that there is no one who can surpass these eternal guys-the Huron Protoss is probably the only one. Exceptions, but they will be tossed by the anti-phase technology of the old empire, which is enough to show that there is no absolute in the world, and I feel a little more balanced in my heart. As for Father God’s mention that in time, his children will be able to crack the Empire’s reverse-phase equipment. This is how I understand it: According to the Protoss’ view of time, in time, we should just wait for this cosmic wreckage to die naturally... They can do it in a daze. Caveman learned to walk upright...
"According to the structure of this storm—Xiaoxue said that it is specially used to suppress the gate of the abyss, and the gate of the abyss should be located at the bottom of the storm." I turned on my data terminal and projected this in the midair in front of me" Universe" model, the tens of thousands of kilometers of black-red energy storm occupies two-thirds of the entire picture, like a twisting funnel, and at the bottom of the funnel, due to the existence of a strong energy field, is the current The only area where the engineering team did not arrive. "After the work on the workstation is done, let's go to the bottom."
"But there is definitely a gate of the abyss there." An uncle behind God Father (should be an expert and scholar of the Protoss? Anyway, he looks very knowledgeable) said, "The reason why we found the wreckage of this world is that the gate of the abyss has not yet opened." Dissipate, the red storm outside suppressed the gate of the abyss, but also completely protected it. If you forcefully enter the bottom of the storm, it may destroy the energy balance there, and the gate of the abyss loses its suppression... "
Father God and I looked at this protoss scholar who was a little too cautious at the same time. The latter looked at the two void creatures in front of him and twitched his mouth: "Okay, let me tell you in advance when the time comes, I will stay away..."
Let me go, is the selection criteria for God the Father to go out with his entourage enough to live treasure
"Your Majesty, we have discovered something!"
At this moment, a senior technician suddenly shouted from a distance, with a look of surprise on his face, we hurried over and found a group of experts busy around a console that looked not much different from the surrounding ones , they cleaned up the dust on the console, and they were removing the side shield of this ancient device. When the shield was removed, it revealed the neat crystals and the metal plate layer with complex textures inside: completely see I don't know what it means, but it's absolutely high-tech, well, that's how it feels.
"We have to find a way to restore the energy supply of this hall." The senior technician pointed to the other lifeless console arrays nearby, and several assistant technicians had already split up to check the rest of the consoles. "Most of these devices have been completely scrapped, but For some, like the one in front of you, the subordinates are 50% sure that they can let it run for a while. This kind of on-site analysis equipment generally has a memory with a small capacity, which is used to record those things that are easily ignored by the process flow recorder. If the last analysis mission was carried out shortly before it was abandoned, then those data should still be readable."
It is not so simple to restore the energy supply of this abandoned building, because of the special security requirements of dangerous research sites, all its energy paths are closed, especially the sample analysis room is the easiest Where the pollution of the abyss is leaked, all equipment cannot be connected to external energy sockets. They will only use dedicated energy from inside the building. The engineers quickly encountered such troubles. The external psionic energy cores they brought cannot be used on these equipment. identified, a security barrier is activated before those consoles are activated, and any unidentified connection requests are blocked.
Of course, the senior technician is also very clear about the principle: "The laboratory that studies the abyss has a security code, and all connections with it are marked by the security code, even including the energy supply—perhaps we should first find the person of this workstation. With a built-in reaction furnace, it can presumably be able to power the sample analysis chamber."
I suddenly remembered the set of protective equipment on the top of the workstation that I saw before.
Since that set of equipment can still be used, it means that there must be at least one still operating reactor somewhere in the workstation. In this case... maybe there is no need to find the reactor, and the energy on the shield generator will be used directly. According to the B-level security strategy of the research facility, the energy used by the building shield and the research room unit should be the same specification. In order to ensure that in the case of a sudden "power failure" in the laboratory, the building shield can be sacrificed to maintain the shielding of dangerous samples. I hope this workstation does not use the military-level strategy. The military-level strategy is suitable for extremely dangerous sample research. It is not allowed to be universal—this knowledge was mentioned by her when she chatted with Tavel before, because the girl with glasses is only interested in these topics besides scientific research results, so I am quite impressed. Of course, there is another reason that she can't understand other topics she told me...
All the teams active in the workstation immediately received a new order to go to the shield generator on the top floor of the workstation. The original floor was meaningless to the exploration team, because there was only one set of shields and two sets of space distortions that had stopped. Device, I didn't expect the most worthless thing to come in handy now. Soon, the non-medium energy supply chain used within a short distance was connected to the shield device on the top floor, and several autonomous machines around us began to act as energy broadcast towers, diverting the energy diverted from the shield generator to all concentrated in this hall.
Perhaps our expectations for the reactor of this old antique building were too high. Almost at the same time, the shield strength of the workstation itself began to drop sharply, and even the anchors of the site space showed signs of loosening. came.
"Dad, it looks like what we're cutting off is the last bit of energy quota in this place." Xiaoxue hugged the chubby torso of an autonomous machine next to her to stabilize her body, "It's about to be torn apart by the energy storm outside!"
Facing this somewhat unexpected situation, Monina reacted decisively, and immediately patted 123 on the shoulder: "Brother, go!"
Ilson wanted to protest: "It's me again!" So Monina kicked over - in contrast, I think my younger sisters are so cute!
Ten Thousand Years Blood Bull MT Ilsen protested a total of five words before being kicked out of the workstation. He opened the shield wall to completely cover this huge building like a hill, and the energy storm he endured instantly increased from the single-player Reaching the legion level: the surface area he can withstand attacks now exceeds at least several World Trade Centers. So in the next second, Ilsen's screaming voice resounded in the hall: "Oh shit! You can't do this! I have made contributions to the God Realm, and I have stood guard for God the Father! I demand equal treatment, let me go See Father God oh oh oh—do you dare to come and see how big the movement is here, and dare to come and see it in person?!"
The corners of Monina's mouth twitched stiffly: "Brother, Father God is watching here, can't you grow some face?"
"Hey, I forgot." Irsen's voice changed immediately, and he became excited in the next second, "I am Irsen, the god of war! My body is indestructible! All challenges come to me! My body is the holy light, My name is Victory! Invincible in all battles! God the Father grants me strength! Burn, my little X universe! For the light! Victory and glory! 强さと攻略! каб выйграць!"
He was so impassioned and passionate, just hearing the sound, I thought he was about to die. Monina spread her wings to cover her face, optimistically guessing that she would have no face to face anyone.
However, Ilsen did help a lot. After all, after he gagged his mouth, he was considered a hard worker. Under the protection of the strong shield wall, the situation of the workstation stabilized, and our senior technicians on site began to work hard. Attempt to start those devices after emergency repairs.
Finally, the first console made a low humming sound, and a blue light ball representing system startup appeared in the holographic projection area.
