Chapter 1933 Four Hundred Years

Everyone followed the strange guy who ran to feed the spiders, but despite his deformed body, he ran very fast. After leaving the passage, he seemed to have disappeared. Everyone followed him all the way but didn't see where he went.

So when the lights were turned on and a figure was reflected nearby, everyone thought it was that guy.

But upon closer inspection, something seems to be wrong.

The figure, which was about 20 to 30 meters away, was motionless. It looked more like a statue than a person, and it was in a kneeling position. When the light shone on it, its body seemed somewhat incomplete, and only the outline of a human figure could be barely seen.

The soldiers led by Dui raised their guns and aimed at the enemy at the first opportunity. Seeing that the enemy did not react, they carefully guarded their surroundings and paced forward.

"That's not a living person."

At this time, Li Chengxi said through Alyssa's headset:

"It's a dead person from the Glowing Ion Yin Order."

Just as Li Chengxi said, when everyone got close enough to see the details, they found that this was a guy with a very high degree of mechanization, completely like a robot, kneeling on the ground.

But unlike many members of the Glowing Ion Yin Order that Alyssa had seen, this guy had too few fragments on him.

For example, the auxiliary arm on the back, the wrist equipped with a power hammer, the incense burner that he always keeps in his hand, the standard red robe, and even the implanted prosthetic eye on the head, all these messy equipment that people like to install when mechanizing the body have disappeared. Now all that is left is a human-shaped block of metal.

"Someone must have taken his equipment, and the action was quite brutal."

Getting closer, Alyssa saw many signs of being smashed or pulled on the surface. It didn't look like the equipment had been simply taken away, but more like it had been torn away by a wild beast.

But the beast doesn't seem to have anything to do with these typically man-made objects.

Under the cover of everyone, Alyssa moved closer and found that except for some bones and human tissues in the head, all of this person's internal organs had been mechanized. The transformation rate was probably more than 90%, which was ridiculously high.

However, this is also good news.

Alyssa pulled out the cable from her personal terminal and tapped a few times with her fingers to open the interface hidden inside the dust cover.

Along with the sound of the hard disk running, the personal terminal is reading data.

"This guy has been dead for nearly four hundred years."

Li Chengxi said:

"Can you get any useful information?"

Alyssa hoped to get a map of the entire planet's fortress, preferably with a maintenance route map or something like that, but the possibility of this was not high.

Perhaps it was because the time was too long, or it might be because the person formatted it before he died, the information read out from the personal terminal was fragmented. Judging from the remaining timestamps, he had indeed been dead for nearly four hundred years.

The Glow Ion Yin Society is like this. They are too scattered and have no contact for a long time. They don’t even know each other’s existence.

As the data continued to be read, Alyssa found a relatively complete report. It should be that the formatting program had not been completely executed and the person died, causing the program to terminate and the report to be left behind.

The report stated that people often disappeared in the cabin and some strange things appeared. Every time such an abnormal situation occurred, almost translucent crystals were found growing around it.

It looks like an investigative report.

As for the crystals mentioned in the report… Alyssa looked up and saw that not far from the crowd there was a layer of crystals clinging to a relatively intact pillar, piled up at the bottom like stalagmites.

By the way, the scanner just now did not give any data on this kind of crystal, so it is obviously not the common silica or sodium chloride.

"What it is?"

"Some kind of crystal?"

This seems like nonsense.

The main reason is that Li Chengxi didn’t know what it was, because the right-click attempt to open the item properties failed and couldn’t be opened.

This situation is actually very rare. Theoretically, God can see through the properties of all matter. If you right-click anywhere, at least the information about the land will be displayed.

There is only one possibility for this situation where it cannot be opened, and that is that this thing is related to God or divine power.

"I don't recommend you touch it. Although it's just a guess, it should be a side effect of some kind of divine power."

There was no need for Alyssa to figure out what it was, she just needed to know that she couldn't touch it.

After removing the cables, Alyssa signaled everyone to move on.

Li Chengxi said to her:
"What we are looking for should be in the direction this person is facing."

"why?"

"First of all, he was welded to the floor, not just kneeling there. Secondly, he is a member of the Glowing Ion Yin Cult. Think about your previous experience with Fang Lanyin. Wasn't it the same then?"

It's true. In the secret fortress where Li Chengxi got the magical mechanical priesthood, there was also a dead person from the Glowing Ion Yin Society. These guys were so pious that they continued to pray even at the last moment of their lives.

There is no holy emblem in the fortress on this planet, and of course one would not pray to a statue or holy emblem, so what would one pray to...

Needless to say, it must be the space godhood.

So Li Chengxi thought that the direction this person was facing should be the location of the spatial godhead. Of course, this was just a direction, and no one knew how far away Alyssa and the others were. Moreover, if more dead people facing the same direction were found, it should be possible to confirm that this was the case.

The group walked forward for a distance, and the ultrasonic detector showed that there was an obvious depression about a hundred meters in front of them on the left. After further detection, they found that it should be a corridor.

It’s just that this damn place is too dark. The lights are far above our heads, and there are too many obstructions above. As a result, not only is it pitch dark below, it’s also so dark that even a dead person wouldn’t notice it.

So every once in a while Alyssa would ask everyone to confirm the number of people, neither too few nor too many.

Alyssa even saved the number of people and everyone's name in the notes on her personal terminal, and regularly called out the names to confirm. This was to prevent her mind from becoming confused and not realizing that there were one more or one less person.

It seems unnecessary, but it is actually very necessary, because Alyssa has encountered these two situations when exploring the ruins. The process...

They are all very fucking awesome.

Li Chengxi was of course also watching. As they continued to move forward and got closer and closer to the suspected corridor, the life detector suddenly issued a warning.

"Something is approaching, there are quite a few of them, everyone be alert, prepare to fight!"
