Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 446 Project Name: Restart Yaguna Kotor
"Dr. Park Sang-woo, you have no choice but to weigh the pros and cons. The best solution is to tell me the truth you know. In this way, not only you don't have to worry about whether your 'wife' is faithful to you, but you can also Get out of here alive," Ke Lan said.

Park Shangyou was silent for more than a minute, then looked at Ke Lan, and said in a tired voice: "Okay...you want...what do you want to know?"

"All." Ke Lan said.

"Where do you want to start?"

"Start from the beginning of the matter."

"...Okay. Since you have that authority, you must know that I am a returnee, right?"

"I repeat, you can just say what you want, don't ask me questions, and don't use words to test me." Ke Lan said expressionlessly.

"...Okay. About this matter, about this project of 'restarting Yagunaktor', we have to start from the time when I was exiled." Park Sangyou said with a sigh.

Ke Lan and the hound looked at each other, and both of them saw a little bit of surprise in each other's eyes - in their original guess, "Yagunaktor" was probably a prehistoric creature living in the bottom of the molten fire mine area. A creature, but judging from the name of this project, the truth obviously has a lot of deviation from speculation.

If "Yagunaktor" is really a prehistoric species, it would be better to use words such as "resurrection" or "awakening", and "restart" should obviously not be used on creatures.

"You keep talking."

"I was thrown by the transport ship into the wilderness hundreds of kilometers away from the ark. At this distance, it is almost impossible for me to walk back to the ark. In my backpack, there are only enough rations and drinking water for three days... I don't even need to When the supplies are exhausted, the low temperature at night alone is enough to prevent me from seeing the sun the next day."

"My luck was good. I walked for four hours in the wilderness, and finally found a settlement of exiles hidden in a natural cave before the sun went down. I exchanged food and water for the day for a night in the settlement. Qualifications... But when I didn't expect it, the old man who took my things and promised me that he would keep me safe led a group of people to rob me that night."

"Strange... aren't you a strengthened person? You will still be robbed by those people? Do they have a lot of guns?" The hound couldn't help but interjected.

"There are only a few homemade shotguns in that settlement, and they can't be aimed at five meters away... It's just that they have a lot of mutants, and I can't fight that kind of radiation mutants."

"To the point." Ke Lan said, "Dr. Park Shangyou, you also know that we are in danger now, so please make a long story short."

"Okay." Park Shangyou nodded resignedly, "They robbed me, and then planned to sell me as a slave to other settlements the next day, but on the way, their convoy was attacked."

"The attacker was a heretic sect?" Aya Breya asked.

"Yes. Half of the exiles in the convoy were killed, and among the remaining captives, the thin ones were killed on the spot, and the strong ones were sent to be made into 'Seeds of Corrosion' Container... As members of the Security Bureau, you should know what the container of the Seed of Corrosion means."

"Go on."

"At that time, I was still wearing a white lab coat. A man in a black robe saw me and asked me if I had just been exiled. I said yes, and then he asked me if I was exiled. I answered truthfully about the reason and my specialty. He said he could give me a chance to join a heretical sect and serve the Great True God, or become a container for the seed of erosion like other captives.”

"I have no choice but to promise them. In the later period of time, with my ability, I helped them find several ruins of the Alpha civilization buried deep underground..."

"Will heretic sects also organize to explore the remains of Alpha civilization?" Aya asked again.

"Yes." Park Shangyou nodded. "In the beginning, I was only in charge of external exploration. Later, after gradually gaining their trust, they began to bring me into the ruins."

Park Shangyou paused, then looked at Ke Lan and said, "In the heretical sect, there is a person who can understand the language of Alpha civilization."

"I know him, and even dealt with him a few times." Ke Lan looked at him and said calmly, "Very good, this at least proves that you are not fooling me."

"...That's right, since you are a member of that organization, you must know..." Park Shangyou said, "In the heretical sect, they all respect him as a 'prophet', and he is the most respected person in the heretical sect. Even higher than the leader."

Ke Lan raised his eyebrows indistinctly. He originally thought that the guy who founded the heretical sect was the leader himself, but now it seems that the leader is someone else.

Or is the "Prophet" just one of his many substitutes, and the Hierarch is the hidden body?Or, swap the identities of the two?
Ke Lan didn't know.

"With the help of the 'Prophet', the difficulty of exploring the ruins of heretical sects has dropped a lot. Many ruins that can be rated as at least C-level or even B-level can be explored without injury." Park Shangyou said, "In and' After the Prophet is familiar with it, he will often tell me some clues found in the ruins, hoping to use my ability to unearth more new ruins related to it."

"One of the clues points to the molten mine area, right?" Ke Lan asked.

"Yes. The prophet told me that the Nino alloy material was not actually made by the Alpha civilization." Park Shangyou replied, "He saw on a stone tablet that all the Nino alloys on the Alpha planet came from the molten mine area , to be precise, all come from 'Yagunaktor'."

Ke Lan stopped the Hound and Aya who wanted to ask questions with gestures, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and looked at Park Shangyou: "I know this, you continue to talk."

"In the depths of the molten mine area, there is buried an ancient warship about one-sixth the size of the ark. This warship was not built by the Alpha civilization. It came from a higher-level civilization, and the construction of this ship The material of the battleship is Nino alloy. As for 'Yagunaktor', is that... a code name given to this battleship by 'that organization'."

"The so-called 'mining' of the Alpha civilization is actually dismantling the parts of this battleship and melting them into ingots... Isn't this similar to what the group of people in the base are doing?"

"Yes... As far as the current information is known, the Alpha civilization has not mastered the manufacturing method of Nino alloy. The smelting facilities in the molten mine area were also built to copy Nino alloy... just like us."

Park Shangyou's throat moved, and he continued: "At the beginning, Ark didn't know the existence of 'Agunaktor'. They didn't set up this project until I brought this information back... what they want It's not Nino alloy, but this ancient battleship from a higher civilization."

"My colleagues and I, our mission is to find and restart this warship."

"It seems that you have found 'Yagunaktor'?"

"……Correct."

"Is this what caused the earthquake?"

"Correct."
