However, the humans had also begun their attacks. From the three screens, Zero could see beams of energy continuously shooting out. The moment they entered the black cloud, the material on the surface of the black cloud immediately sunk, followed by a phenomenon of annihilation. No matter what the black cloud was made of, once it was attacked by an energy flow, the attacked part would turn into particles, eventually turning into nothingness.
When Zero saw this, his pupils constricted.
The phenomenon on the black cloud, if there were no accidents, should be the result of the annihilation of the positive and negative forces. In other words, the energy flow from the spaceship should be close to cationic cannons. It was an energy attack weapon in the theoretical stage. Zero did not expect such a terrifying weapon to be installed on the spaceship.
A single cationic cannon was enough to annihilate a large scale city. How terrifying was that power?
In the video, the black cloud was constantly hit by the energy beams. However, it seemed to be able to repair its "body" indefinitely. The place where it was destroyed was soon filled with new material, and its speed did not decrease as it moved towards the spaceship. It welcomed the fierce fire from the human side.
At this moment, the screen in front of Zero flashed and then disappeared into the air. Soon after, the crystal in his chest suddenly cracked. When the crystal shattered, the tactical suit on Zero's body immediately dissolved and turned into ashes at the same time as the crystal.
He knew that the remaining energy in the crystal stone should have finally run out after broadcasting that part of the record, which was why it and the tactical suit had been separated into formlessness.
This made Zero a little bit regretful. He really wanted to know the result of Black Cloud's encounter with the spaceship. However, from the looks of it, the appearance of this spaceship on Earth did not seem to affect it much. However, more doubts appeared in Zero's mind. For example, when exactly was this human from? And with such advanced technology, why did they suddenly disappear into the history of Earth? Not even a little bit of information remained.
It was like a huge fault in civilization. Zero believed that as long as he could bring even the tiniest bit of information from this spaceship into the wilderness, mankind's present civilization would suffer a strong impact. However, he did not plan to do so. This spaceship would become his treasure. If he could decipher the technology and civilization on the spaceship, Zero could definitely become one of the top people in the world.
But right now, he wasn't prepared enough. Moreover, he also lacked the funds and talent to research spaceships. Before that, the bigger problem was how to get the ship out of the ground.
The ideal scenario would be for the spaceship to store energy to help it escape from the ground. Otherwise, the cost of excavation and salvage would be astronomical.
With hope that the spaceship could still move, Zero followed the footage he had just seen and continued along the tunnel. To get the ship moving, he had to at least get to the control center in the picture.
Chapter 154 - Light Tooth
As Zero walked forward, more and more corpses appeared on the path. These corpses all wore the same tactical suit s, it was obvious that they were colleagues. However, the traces left behind at the scene were proof of the fact that they were in the same boat.
Zero could see the marks of energy slicing on the cracks on the wall. Each of those finger-sized holes was caused by the destruction of the energy beam. The bores of these bullet holes are smooth and show signs of carbonization. If it wasn't an energy-tier weapon, it wouldn't have caused this kind of result, not to mention the fact that even half of the warheads on the ground didn't have this kind of effect. As for the corpses on the ground, all of them held strange weapons that had never been seen before.
It was a beam weapon shaped like a rectangular metal box. It had been picked up from a dead body. It was unknown what type of metal these firearms were made of, but the weight of Zero in his hand was extremely light, it was only equivalent to the alloy military knife on the outside of his thigh. Although the beam rifle had a rifle butt that was similar to a modern weapon, Zero could not find the trigger nor did he know how it was fired.
However, the body of the spear was also embedded with a fist-sized crystal stone. That should be the beam weapon's energy source system. Near the crystal and the ship's hull were engraved lines, which extended from thin to dense to the point of the gun. If there were no mishaps, these engravings would act as an energy conduction function. The beam rifle was supplied with energy by the crystal, and was then transmitted and compressed by the engraving. Finally, it was fired in an unknown manner to achieve the effect of killing.
From the numerous bullet holes on the passageway, it could be seen that this beam weapon also possessed the high-frequency firing ability. If it was used in combat now, it would cause unimaginable damage.
Unfortunately, the crystal on the spear had already shattered. Even if he could figure out how to fire it, he probably wouldn't have the energy to do so.
Zero continued forward.
Crystals, light energy, biomimetic technology. These were the scientific and technological subjects of this civilization. Zero could imagine that the world that civilization existed in must be very clean and natural. Compared to the turbulent times of today, it was no different from heaven.
If their civilization could be promoted in the current world, perhaps Earth could regain its former appearance. However, Zero also knows that the ugliness of human nature is more likely to be due to the development of light powered mass murder weapons. At that time, it would just hasten the destruction of the world.
He did not intend to be a savior, but neither did he want the planet he had to live on to be destroyed by the unbridled ambition of some war maniac. As such, it was better to have the spaceship in his hands, even if Zero did not have the ability to discover the technology of this civilization.
In the blink of an eye, Zero had reached the end. A wall of pipes blocked his path. In the middle of the wall, there was a crystal the size of a blue ball. The crystal was shaped like a hexagonal beehive. If the blue light from the pipes didn't flow into the crystal, it would emit a blue flame, like a bright firework under the night sky.
Zero put his hand on the crystal. The crystal's surface was not as hard as he had imagined, but it was a bit soft, causing Zero's hand to sink in a bit.
When Zero pulled out his hand, the crystal left a light palm print. The palm print quickly dissipated, turning into countless tiny specks of light, like tadpoles, that drilled into the crystal's body. They were arranged in a certain order, as if the computer were doing some kind of calculation. Soon, the wall behind the crystal stone began to roll like water. They quickly dispersed, opening a door for Zero to enter the control room.
Zero walked past the crystal floating in mid air. When he entered the control room, the space closed again, leaving no trace behind.
At this moment, Zero was standing on the platform indicated by the screen of light. There was only one table and one chair on the platform, which was obviously the captain's seat. Beneath the stage was a "concave" operation area. But whether it was the captain or the operator, all they had left were corpses, lying or sitting.
Turn the captain's chair over, against a tall corpse. The corpse was similarly skeletal, but as the chair rotated, the corpse's head fell off. As soon as it touched the ground, it crumbled to dust. At this time, Zero noticed that the corpse's right hand was holding something that looked like a sword hilt. He wanted to pry open the corpse's fingers, but the moment he touched the corpse, the finger bones wrapped in tactical suit s would be shattered into smoke.
The gloves without the bones to support them hung limply, and the hilt of the knife in his hand also fell to the ground.
Zero picked it up. The metal of the handle was similar to the beam rifle seen outside. The quality was very light. There was a thumb-sized crystal embedded at
the end of the blade. There was no light in this crystal, but it was not cracked. Judging from the structure of the hilt, it was clearly a light weapons. It was just that there was no energy filling the crystal right now. After pondering for a moment, a scarlet light surfaced on the palm of his hand that was holding onto the blade. That was Su's Fire Elemental energy.
Following the method of injecting Fire Essence Su into the bullets, he controlled the energy with his will and poured it into the crystal on the handle of his blade. Immediately, the crystal shone with a red light. But soon, the red light turned blue, and in the next moment, with a "chi" sound, an energy blade of about twenty centimeters long shot out from the front of the handle. The blade lightly trembled, but the energy that didn't actually form the blade vibrated at an extremely fast speed, causing the blade's energy to be able to cut through any known material.
Looking at the headless body, Zero could imagine the owner of the lightsaber committing suicide with it. The sharpness of the energy blade, however, caused his throat to be cut off at the same time as his neck was cut. From this, it could be imagined how sharp the Light Dagger was. It was just like the fangs of light!
After all, Su was only at the first stage of the Fire Element Realm, so the amount of energy that she could control was pitifully little. After about ten seconds, the energy blade disappeared into thin air, leaving only a small amount of heat.
But Zero was very fond of it. At least it was a light weapon that he could use. Not only were these crystals able to absorb and store energy, they could also convert other types of light energy into energy that could be used. This allowed anyone with the ability of the Metaverse Realm to use them. Su Ming was lucky that she had stolen this stage one Fire Essence Su's ability from Soren. The appearance of this light energy weapon allowed him to maximize the use of this ability.
light tooth. This was the name that Zero had given to this Light Dagger. That stance of his, which was as sharp as the fangs of light, left a deep impression on Zero. It is innumerable, but before long, it will become known to this world because of zero!
He carefully put away the light tooth and jumped off the stage to move. The blue light on the walls of the control room flowed unceasingly. It was obvious that the stored energy was still working. No matter what, Zero had to try and activate the spaceship. At the very least, let it bring him out of the subterranean space under this huge fissure.
Chapter 155 - Fly
Standing in front of a operating table, Zero frowned.
He chose to stand here because there were only a screen of light rising above the operating table's head on a dozen or so operating platforms. Two concentric rings were constantly moving on the light screen, and at the same time, groups of symbols appeared below the light screen. These symbols were somewhat similar to the Roman symbols, so that zero judged them to be numbers.
And the way the numbers are displayed, in two groups side by side, in addition to the concentric rings of interlaced motion, there is no reason to believe that it represents information about certain coordinates. operating table s with coordinates would appear. In other words, this should be the flying platform of the flying ship.
In general, the supply of energy, whether aircraft or other means of transportation, meets the requirements of the driving system first. If the transport could not move, then it would be of no use first. It seems that this unknown civilization did not go beyond this range, placing the required energy to drive in the first sequence. However, the platform in front of him had no other controls, not even the most common crystals. He really didn't know how to move the spaceship.
But one thing was certain, since the operating platform was here, then the controller must be somewhere else. It was just that Zero could not understand the civilization this spaceship represented, so he could not find a way to deal with it.
He tried to reach his hand out onto the metal platform. Immediately, several rectangular light frames appeared under his palm. As soon as he removed his hand, the light disappeared. Touch keys were not uncommon in this era. For example, the Phoenix City's Information Center used an intelligent computer and used a light screen's touch button to operate it. It seemed like the operation of the spaceship was inextricably linked to the touch of the keys. However, Zero did not know what commands these keys represented, and did not dare to randomly press them.
He used his free hand to caress the platform, and as he moved his palm, long rays of light appeared one by one. Zero's eyes memorized the distribution of the light lattice. When he retracted his hand from the platform, he already had a complete light lattice distribution map in his mind.
This should be a recessive keypad of light arranged in a square, vertical seven, a total of 49 keybits. And on both sides of these keys, there were also columns of light with symbols on them. There were only two columns, and each column also had seven columns. There were a total of 56 keybits that formed the operating system of the spaceship.
For such an advanced aircraft, Zero believed that with just a simple command, it would be able to allow the ship to fly automatically. Unfortunately, even if he did, he would not know how to combine the buttons to form the command to start the spaceship.
But in Zero's memory, the third square of the symbol with the palm appeared in the third circle of the symbol that was placed on the right side of the circle of light.
Since there was automatic flying, there was naturally manual flying as well. Suddenly excited, Zero believed that it was the command button for manual flight.
He reached out his hand. Zero was on the light button in his memory. With a flash of the symbol in the palm, the neatly arranged keys suddenly appeared on the platform. After that, they scattered and then randomly scurried around, looking extremely nervous.
As if it had been set up early in the morning, all the squares slid to the edge of the platform and disappeared. When there was not even half a square left on the platform, a groove opened up on the left and right side of the platform. In each of the grooves, a fist-sized blue crystal floated up.
The crystal floated up to a certain height before stopping. Then, a blue light shot out from the crystal. The blue light was like a nebula enveloping the two crystals, followed by countless strange symbols flashing in the blue light.
At the same time as the two crystals were raised, the engravings on the exterior of the spaceship also began to glow with a soft blue light. The blue light spread through the engravings on the ship, and the six metal wings began to vibrate. The central axis of each wing began to glow with blue light, and the ship's reserve of energy began to flow into their drive system. One of the wings suddenly flattened out, and the metal sheets that had been scattered across the ground began to glow blue.
Suddenly, a blue light shrouded the cave. The ship seemed to have descended into the starry sky of the universe, revealing a dream-like beauty.
In the control room, Zero reached his hands into the two balls of hazy blue light. When he came into contact with the crystal stone in the blue light, a screen appeared on each of the three walls in front of the operating platform.
Three screens, one big and two small. Using a technique unknown to zero, he faithfully transmitted the objects outside the spaceship to the screens. Zero saw the cave he came from and smiled. The appearance of the window indicated that the driving system of the spaceship had finally started. It was just that Zero did not know how long the energy storage would last for, so it was best to leave the subterranean space as soon as possible.
However, although these two crystals could be confirmed to be the ship's manual control system, Zero did not know the actual operation method. As things stood, it could only try its luck.
When he put his hand on the two crystals, Zero could feel that the two crystals were not stationary. They were all moving slightly, but in different directions. The crystal on the right was moving horizontally, while the crystal on the left was moving vertically. Looking at the screen on the operating platform, it seem
ed like it had gained some insight. Wasn't it the two data slots that made up the coordinates?
Could it be that by rotating the crystal to a specific scale, one could inject a destination into the spaceship? After all, the coordinates were flat, but the motion of the spaceship was three-dimensional. But in this way, the principles behind the rotation of these two crystals were unclear.
He clenched his teeth and waved his right hand, causing the crystal to move even faster. At the same time, the body of the ship began to shake violently.
Through the window, Zero could see that the scenery in the cave had obviously moved a little. With one move, he swept the crystal with his left hand.
The shock reappears, and the window clearly moves a little upwards.
Zero finally understood the purpose of these two crystals. They allowed the spaceship to move up and down separately!
The direction control was clear. What was left was the ship's propulsion system. Push the crystals together and imagine them as levers to push them up. Unexpectedly, the crystal stone did not budge at all. However, when it was pressed down by Zero, the body of the boat suddenly shook violently. In the window, stone chips constantly flew down. It was the result of the intense friction between the ship and the rock stratum.
As soon as Zero let go of the crystal stone, the ship's shaking stopped.
He tried a few more times and found that he did not need to press the crystal. As long as he did a pressing motion, the spaceship would be able to propel itself. At this point, he finally understood how to operate the spaceship.
Inhale deeply, press zero void crystal, at the same time slide crystal with the left hand to adjust the ship to the upward angle.
The spaceship shook violently, but Zero remained motionless as if he was nailed to the ground. He pressed on the crystal and shouted, "Fly!"
In the underground cavern, the drone was enveloped in a blue glow that grew brighter and brighter. The metallic wings on both sides made a flapping motion, and a huge gust of wind swept through the area. The ship's massive propelling force caused intense friction with the rock layer, but under that blue light, the rock layer at the edge of the ship was constantly peeling off.
