Chapter 145 144. First Exploration (4K)

Witt Castle.

A young man in full armor pushed open the door leading to the basement, but the door behind him didn't lead to the first floor of the castle, but a white corridor that didn't belong to the real world.

Theoretically, two professionally trained members of the Investigation Department should be standing not far behind him, and the stairs and basement should have been filled with various monitoring devices during this period, but they are now useless.

Because Ren Shizhi was responsible for building these things.

Eddie walked down with heavy steps, unimpeded, to the basement, and saw the wooden door that Ma En had told him about. He didn't know where it would lead him.

But Eddie had no choice.

The door frame was carved with intricate patterns, like some kind of magical spell from the West Federation.

When he stood in front of the door, Ma En suddenly sent a message:

"Open the door."

Eddie put his hand on the handle.

This was no different from opening any door, but it was very similar to what he had experienced when he came. There were no traces of artificial construction in front of him, and a dark and cramped cave appeared behind the door.

"Close the door and then move forward."

Eddie walked over.

He turned to look at the rectangular portal behind him, reached out and pulled the wooden door shut, and then the portal connecting to Witt Castle disappeared with his movement.

"Did you close the door?" He asked Ma En through the employee panel.

"We have other ways to recover members, don't worry," he replied. "Continue the operation."

In the Abnormal Control Bureau, Ma En was sitting in a chair looking at the floating screen in front of him—it showed the world that Eddie saw in his eyes, and on the right side there was a teleport button, but what he didn't tell Eddie was that he could feel that the time required for teleportation had increased by about seven seconds.

Ma En looked at the floating screen, where Eddie activated the lighting system on his body, and the dark cave became bright.

The road in front of him only allowed three to five people to advance side by side, and he couldn't see how far it would take to leave, but the wizards of the past should have walked here, so it shouldn't be too far.

Moreover, he had Eddie bring enough food, so this level 0 employee wouldn't starve to death for a while.

Eddie followed Ma En's orders and began to move forward continuously.

This process was quite boring, and it was much longer than they had originally expected. Eddie rested three times during the advance, and it took nearly four hours to approach the exit, but this was also because his physical fitness was average.

But when the light faintly appeared in the distance, Eddie couldn't help but speed up his pace.

The moment he walked out of the cave, soft white light filled his entire body. White misty objects floated in the position that should have been the sky, and they were the light source that illuminated this world.

Looking at these luminous clouds, Eddie felt as if he was in a giant room. The effect created by the light source in the sky was quite consistent with the light bulbs in the room. They should be some kind of artificial product.

The ground was an empty wasteland, and there was nothing unusual to see. There were sporadic weeds growing tenaciously in the distance, reminding them that this was not a barren land.

There were two other noteworthy things in his field of vision. One was a tower that pierced into the clouds in his front left. At this distance, it looked like a slender black needle, and the other was a road two hundred meters in front of him leading to the distance.

Finally, behind him was a towering stone wall, which extended as far as his eyes could see. The road eventually disappeared in front of the stone wall, but it didn't seem to stop here, as if it had been built before the stone wall appeared.

"What should I do now?" Eddie asked.

Ma En said:

"First check if there are any traces of humans passing by."

Eddie searched around in place, and then replied:

"I can't see anything."

He also didn't have any professional knowledge in this area.

"Advance along the road," Ma En said.

Although the tower was within his field of vision, based on the calculation of its height and width, it was probably not easy to reach on foot, and the existence of the road meant that it was likely to lead to other man-made buildings.

After receiving the order, Eddie moved forward according to Ma En's requirements.

'There are still ways to teleport.'

When he saw the weeds, Eddie actually thought that there might be a food supply needed for survival here, which made him have some thoughts of taking the opportunity to escape, but the information provided by Ma En when he entered also made him hesitate.

Ma En claimed that he could still take himself out of this place, but this might also be a lie to appease himself.

However, these thoughts did not stay in Eddie's mind for long, because he soon remembered that he was already an ordinary person. Without any abnormal abilities, he had no way to survive in the wild for a long time.

Instead of taking the opportunity to escape and gambling that Ma En had no way to do anything to him, Eddie felt that pretending to cooperate and waiting for an opportunity to find opportunities in such exploration missions was a better choice.

Since they gave him a chance, then he must make these guys regret not killing himself in time.

As he moved forward in silence, both Eddie and Ma En noticed that the environment around him was slowly changing, and the vegetation was gradually increasing, but they had not seen any animals.

The continued increase in vegetation distribution also seemed to vaguely prove that the direction he was advancing was correct.

Eddie rested several times on the road, and there were no abnormalities in the next five hours of advancing, and the surrounding plants began to become more and more lush. He occasionally saw a few trees standing not far from the roadside.

And Ma En noticed that the time required for Eddie's teleportation had also been extended to one minute and thirty-seven seconds.

Suddenly, when Eddie walked to a certain distance, the number of trees around him began to increase exponentially.

In less than two hundred meters, the environment around him changed from a plain to a forest.

"I feel that the surroundings are a little too quiet," Eddie said uneasily. "I have been to the forest, and the feeling it gave me at that time was completely different. Should I rest here for a while?"

He was obviously a little scared.

Ma En's answer was also very direct:

"Advance."

Eddie stood in place:

"No, I think something is wrong.

"If you need me to do this kind of work, then give me better treatment, at least assign a few mortals to explore the way in front, otherwise I will go on strike."

This was a test.

Eddie wanted to know if Ma En could remotely restrain himself.

But before he could wait for Ma En's answer, he heard the rustling "wind sound."

The silence was broken.

Eddie looked around in horror, but saw nothing.

"Take me back," he shouted quickly, "Let me go back!"

"You're mistaken about one thing," Ma En replied leisurely, "You are not an indispensable important member, you are the lowest-level consumable that we use to explore the way. You want to go on strike?

"Okay, then you can face this world yourself, and we will record all your sights and sounds. You will become the data for our official members to avoid risks when they go to the underground exploration. We will remember how you died.

"This is your entire duty."

The wind blew through the branches, tearing off a few fallen leaves.

Then the world in Eddie's eyes began to change drastically. The image in front of Ma En fell into a brief darkness. He was knocked to the ground by something, and was patted arbitrarily like a hairball, as if some kind of beast was playing with its prey.

When he stopped, he could feel the cold metal pressing against his back, and there was a slight heat coming from the back of his neck.

The attacker turned him over, and Eddie saw what was opposite him.

A strong black feline, but not any of the known creatures. Not a tiger, not a leopard, not a lion, and it was stronger and more agile than these creatures. Most importantly, about 30% of its body was made of machinery.

Including its limbs.

A cold mechanical sound came from the mechanical structure of this unknown beast's chest:

"Detecting the concentration of gods in the individual: low.

"Detecting the purity of the individual's humanity: high."

Ma En had heard these two sentences from the sleeping spider, but after a few seconds of pause, it said a completely new sentence.

"Confirmed as human, not infected by gods, no disinfection procedure is required, will be killed according to standard procedure."

As this sentence fell, the pupils of the big cat suddenly flashed a faint red light, and then a few mechanical structures operated, and the scene in front of Eddie slowly fell into darkness.

And there was one less member on the employee list of the Abnormal Control Bureau forever.

The last mechanical sound from the black cat made Ma En think of a possibility.

The first two completely identical sentences can prove that it is also a Titan creation. It has the same technology as the spider, but the next action was beyond Ma En's expectations.

After detecting that Eddie was a human who had not been infected by gods, the choice was to kill him?

There is a possibility that there is something here that humans cannot approach, even if the person who comes is not affected by the gods, they must be killed, and those affected must undergo other treatments.

But Ma En vaguely noticed something was wrong.

When the spider approached him, it said these detections, so that he could understand what it wanted to do and better accept its help.

But the black cat's mission was to hunt humans. This conversation related to humans was completely unnecessary to say, unless the designer who made them felt that this conversation was necessary to inform the attacked humans of some information.

This is completely inconsistent with the current situation.

But what if there is an error in this?

The spiders they made carried out quite complex encryption. Even if he used the magical things of the Abnormal Control Bureau, he could not obtain its power, and there must be a reason why humans did this in the past.

They were worried that someone would steal their technology. Since they had such worries...

Then the worry may become a reality.

Perhaps the reason why the black cat would say these two sentences that were exactly the same as the spider was probably because it once had the same function—searching for humans and providing assistance against the gods, which can also explain its unusual pause just now.

Its function seems to have been changed. Whether it is the Titans or the gods, in short, something has obtained this weapon and changed its original function to killing the humans it sees. This is the best explanation for these anomalies.

Although this is just a guess, Ma En can be sure that even if the truth is different from his guess, things will definitely not be so simple.

The purposes of the black cat and the spider are completely contradictory, and they have the same detection function and voice, and there was an unusual pause just now. There must be something wrong here.

In the spider's recording, he heard the woman call herself the seventh generation Titan.

And there have been at least thirteen generations of Titans in ancient times. This is still the case when no new Titans have appeared after she finished recording. Ma En doesn't even know what these many generations of Titans are, and it is not certain whether there may be conflicts under here.

There is also a second possibility. Their defeat at that time was actually far more tragic than he had originally imagined. The gods not only destroyed the survivors, but also transformed these weapons that were originally used to fight against them into killing weapons, but in this case, there is still a doubt:

The black cat mentioned that "not infected by gods, no disinfection procedure is required" before killing Eddie, which contradicts the second possible speculation. Although this can also be explained by the fact that they could not perfectly implement the transformation due to encryption, the possibility is not high.

Therefore, Ma En feels that the cause of these machines killing should not be the gods, and it is even possible that this is the Titans changing their minds at the end and carrying out a second transformation of these weapons.

But in any case, he has to hurry up and establish a second team for exploration.

The strength of the black cat has definitely not reached level IV, but it is difficult to say whether it is level III or lower. Although they now have three level IV ability users who can be used for exploration, it is not a wise choice to let their own side carry out this kind of potentially deadly action.

He has to contact Shen Zhihe and establish a second combat-capable suicide squad, and if he doesn't want them to try to escape when entering the basement, the power on them must be given through characteristics.

He must quickly find weapons that can deal with the gods—he needs these things now.

On the desk, what is suspended in front of Ma En is not a screen, but a total of six screens.

Except for Eddie, who has already been blacked out, four screens are playing the execution images of the other four members of the Salvation Secret Alliance. In the front is Shen Zhihe's screen, and it is also written in bright red font "Abnormal Behavior."

When Shen Zhihe asked for forgiveness, Ma En said that if he were in Shen Zhihe's position, he would do similar things.

He was telling the truth.
