Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 407 Strengthening Equipment
"Then this enhanced device is the legacy of the Alpha civilization?" According to Marshall's description, Ke Lan couldn't help but think of something.

"Hmm... It is said that it was found from an S-class ruins. It seems that many people died in order to transport this thing out. I am not sure about the veracity of this rumor, but there are quite a few left on the surface of the device." Bullet marks, I have seen this with my own eyes," Marshall said.

"Then where is this device now? Is it on the ark... or in the sick village?" Ke Lan asked.

"How could I know this? Anyway, when I was sent out of the experimental base, the thing was still in the base. As for whether it was sealed or destroyed later, it has nothing to do with me. As for the sick village... that is even more impossible. Now, if there was that thing, you would have been dealt with long ago, and it's my turn to take action?"

The whereabouts of the enhanced equipment, the deprived will of the victim, and the extremely similar means of attack... When these clues are connected together, the answer is ready to come out - the iron maiden who used to be Zelo's "shelter" is very likely It's a similar enhanced device... Or, it might be the one used by Marshall and Akira Asano!
Putting a high-tech device manufactured by the Alpha civilization with a shell full of medieval atmosphere... It is not impossible for heretical sects to do such a thing.

As for why this thing fell into the hands of heretic sects, the secrets and details in it will not be clear in a short while.

Anyway, things are in Chiron's hands now, how to deal with this hot potato is something that the undead crew will need to consider... As for Ke Lan, his only goal now is to get rid of this extremely ugly monster in front of him.

"It has invaded the control system of this airship." Ke Lan shifted his gaze to the console beside him, and saw countless sharp black spikes piercing through the metal panel of the console, all the way deep into the interior of the electronic components.And at the end of these black spikes, there is a thin cable connected to the body of the puppet individual.

In the middle of the bridge, on the seat belonging to the captain, lay a crooked headless corpse—judging from the costume of the corpse, the deceased was the captain of the "Greek" himself.

The fracture at his neck is very flat, which not only reminded Ke Lan of the first monster he encountered in the hangar, the pair of scythe hands with huge shearing force, and the captain should have been given by that monster. killed.

The blood gushing from his neck dyed the upper body of the captain's uniform and most of the back of the chair deep red, and more than a dozen black spikes pierced through his hands and feet, firmly fixed on the seat behind him... It looks like a prisoner of war who was crucified by the Roman army in the old era.

This cruel method was clearly intended to remove the captain's head—or, to be more precise—his brain while he was still alive.

Ke Lan turned his gaze back to the individual puppet again, and soon, in a corner, he found the face of the captain of the Greek ship that had experienced many vicissitudes.

Different from the other faces that were wailing or crying, or with wide-eyed anger, the captain's eyes were tightly closed and his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something. A stark contrast.

"It...it is reading the captain's memory, and when it digests those things, it will be able to master the control method of this empty ship." Ke Lan said with a frown.

"Are you talking about stuffing us for time?" Marshall said. "Is this thing so obsessed with destroying that space station?"

"This may be an order given to it by the heretic sect. Its first task is to destroy the 'South Sixteenth Area' space station... There are too many secrets hidden on that space station, and the enhanced equipment you used , now there is a high probability that it is also on the space station." Ke Lan analyzed.

"It's impossible! That device can appear anywhere, and it can't appear in the space station!" Marshall shook his head and said, "That guy behind the wall can't lie to me."

"It's true that Chiron didn't lie to you, it's just that this thing came to the door by himself, and he couldn't keep it out." Ke Lan curled his lips, "Otherwise, where do you think this monster and Ze Luo came from? here?"

"To be honest, if that device is really in the space station, then I'd rather it destroy the space station." Marshall suddenly sighed, "It's just... 10,000 people are going to be buried with this damn thing, this kind of thing I can't do it."

"Zero, is there a way to pass through this thing's domain? If you can't attack the main body, no matter how much you pour your firepower, it will be useless." Ke Lan looked at Ze Luo, and put his hope on this "inhuman" girl.

"It has the ability to manipulate time. If we get close to it, we will be trapped in a static time. Only you can crack it," Zelo said.

"Crack? Is it just like before?" Ke Lan recalled the scene in the F area of ​​the space station, "That is to say, there must be direct contact? But, if I can directly contact that guy, then I Just launch an attack on its body directly - if you want to touch its body, you must first touch it to break the time stop, this is clearly an endless loop!"

"What's the ability to manipulate time? What contact? Why can't I understand a word you said?" Marshall looked at Ke Lan and Ze Luo in confusion.

"You understand that I have a way to break the absolute control field of this thing, but I have to touch it, but if I want to touch it, I must first break its absolute control field... Although it sounds a bit convoluted , but generally it’s a question of which came first, the chicken or the egg, an unsolvable endless loop.” Ke Lan said with a look of embarrassment, “Zero, is there no way you can throw me in? Just like I just Someone throw you out like that?"

"I can't do it, it's much stronger than me." Ze Luo said.

Ke Lan knew that this girl would not lie, and she never talked in circles. If she said she couldn't do it, she really couldn't do it.

"It's hard to come here, it can't be a dead end." Marshall said through gritted teeth, "How about... I'll charge again, just in case I can get close..."

"You were almost killed before you walked five meters away, and it's the same if you try again." Ke Lan rejected Marshall's proposal, "That's no different from sending you to death."

"Then what should we do? Just watch it control this empty ship?"

"Wait a minute... I seem to have an idea! Since I can't touch it, it should be the same if it takes the initiative to touch me, right?"
