Start a Core Pod

Chapter 1734 Science Expedition Team (firecrackers were so noisy in the early morning!)

The facts are always more bizarre than movies.

Duanmu Huai originally thought that he was taking the kind of space science fiction horror movie route, the kind of old-fashioned plot where rescue came, and then everyone died, and then everyone came to investigate what happened here.

Of course, this is an ideal situation for Duanmuhuai. After all, if a person is really dead, there will be nothing left.

So when he walked to the bottom of the pit and was directly hit on his face by the gunpowder smoke, he was stunned for a moment.

"Hey, who are you!?"

A big and thick mercenary held up his gun and aimed at Duanmuhuai with a serious expression.

"How did you come here!?"

Do you want to kill all these guys now?

Facing the muzzle, Duanmu Huai thought for a second, and then made a decision.

"I'm here to help."

It's too cheap to kill these guys now, and they don't know what's in the ruins of this mechanical sect. Moreover, Duanmuhuai was not sure whether this mechanical sect had any rebellion. If so, it would be good to stay one or two more meat shields to clear mines.

"help."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, the man frowned and stared at Duanmuhuai. Because of the hurry, Duanmu Huai only wore essential clothes for Antarctica, but it can also be seen that he was a petite girl. And it was really uneasy for the other party to come here alone.

"Yes, it was Professor Williams who asked me to come."

“…………………”

Facing Duanmu Huai's answer, the man hesitated for a moment and then made a gesture. Soon, another companion left quickly, and after a while, they came over with a thin old man. The latter wears glasses and looks like an old pedantic. When he saw Duanmu Huai, he also showed surprises and doubts.

"You called... Professor Williams?"

"Yes."

Duanmuhuai looked at the old man.

"Is you..."

"I am Celtic, the captain of the search team. We lost contact with the previous Exploration team, so we came here to investigate."

When the old professor said this, he stared at Duanmu Huai and remained silent for a moment.

"You're the only one?"

"Yes, how is Professor Williams?"

"They are missing. According to our investigation, they should have entered the remains, but the door is currently locked and we have no way to open it."

"That's how..."

That's great, you don't have to worry about involving others when silence. Duanmu Huai also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"I am a student of Professor Williams and have some research on this civilization ruins, so Professor Williams contacted me specifically and asked me to come here."

"I see………"

Professor Celtic looked at Duanmu Huai, who also stared at him. After a moment, Professor Celtic turned his head.

"Come with me."

As he spoke, he hunched his body and walked to the depths of the tunnel again. Duanmu Huai followed him, and several other mercenaries also surrounded him. But Duanmu Huai didn't care, he was just listening to Professor Celtic's explanation.

"We found... something strange inside. They seemed to have been sleeping before, but suddenly they were activated and then awakened. We tried to communicate with each other, but there was no gain at all..."

According to Professor Celtic, the scientific expedition team this time was divided into two groups, one led by Williams, responsible for the on-site inspection. The other group was led by Professor Celtic and was responsible for logistics support. The reason why Professor Celtic came to the scene was because Professor Williams' regular contact was interrupted, so he brought other people to check the situation.

“You didn’t contact the outside world?

“We shut down the communication.”

Professor Celtic sighed.

"After all, this is not going well at the moment, and it's not a good idea to tell them out before figuring out what happened to Professor Williams."

For Duanmu Huai, this is also a good decision - so that he can silence all these people unscrupulously.

Anyway, no one knows what's going on here.

While speaking, the group came to the gate. Duanmuhuai glanced at the open mechanical teaching gate and walked in.

Then he saw several archaeologists standing in front of a gate, scratching their ears and heads, and there were several mercenaries standing next to them.

Oh, strictly speaking, what makes these guys headache is not the gate, but a human-shaped object next to the gate.

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai snorted and wanted to laugh.

No, brother, are you stuck here? Where is this going?

"Ah, professor."

At this time, one of the young men saw Professor Celtic come back and hurried over.

"You're finally back, what happened... Uh, who is she?"

Looking at Duanmu Huai following Williams, the young man looked puzzled. However, Duanmu Huai was also dressed very tightly, and he couldn't see his face at all.

Duanmuhuai did not answer the young man's question. He walked directly to the gate and looked at the contemplator who was in charge of guarding the gate. Logically speaking, this thing is not a space undead. It has been rotten so long since it was left so bad that there is no residue left. But in fact, everything here is brand new as before. According to Professor Celtic, there seemed to be some strange reaction here before - well...

Looking at the contemplator in front of him, Duanmu Huai suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Could it be that the seal here is an extremely large static device? Then it was turned off because it was activated by my own song? Then it opened? Then Professor Williams and his team led the team in for inspection, and then the door was closed again?

What did those group of motor oil **** put here! ?

Is it still time for me to go back now? Of course, Duanmu Huai just thought about it, mechanical teaching, and static devices. All of this made him feel very uneasy and quite uneasy.

In his memory, there was nothing good about mechanics and static devices!

"Excuse me………?"

Seeing Duanmu Huai standing in front of the contemplator without saying a word, the person next to him also asked in confusion, while Duanmu Huai sighed, then raised his head and looked at the contemplator.

"Open the door."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's request, the contemplator slowly raised his head, and its mouth was completely transformed into a grille and a snorkel, twisted and static sound emerged from it.

【Please indicate your identity, outsiders】

"The Grand Judge of the Inquisition, Emergency Code MKA32541."

If it is the body, Duanmu Huai can let it scan itself. But the clone doesn't have such convenience, but Duanmu Huai is not completely helpless. Emergency code is a forced opening code, of course, only a small number of large judges know this code. It is mainly used to enter certain closed mechanical churches.

Of course, if outsiders know this underlying code, it will make the mechanical church furious.

But the judge doesn't care.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Because when you usually need to use this code, it means that the mechanical teaching group of unrepentant motor oil guys have taken off again...

【Emergency code verification... Verification is completed】

[Warning, the facility is currently in a first-level alert state]

"Where is the defense agreement?"

【Unable to verify, connection failed, control...data transmission...is terminated, unknown reason】

“Can you contact someone else?”

[The communication protocol is damaged, the signal delay cannot be evaluated, and the two-way connection cannot be established]

“…………”

What exactly happened inside?

"Open the door."

Duanmu Huai withdrew his thoughts, looked in front of him, and silently gave an order.

"Click———!"

With Duanmu Huai's order, the door slowly opened.

At this moment, the people next to him widened their eyes in surprise when they saw this scene.

Of course they did not understand the Gaogoth language used by Duanmuhuai to communicate with the contemplatives, and Duanmuhuai also used the slander of the Inquisition, but as archaeologists, they could hear it somewhat, which should be a very ancient language. . In other words, is this girl specializing in studying this language? That's why Professor Williams asked her to come together?

"What did you... say to it just now?"

The young man asked curiously, while Duanmu Huai glanced at him.

"Nothing, I just asked if I could open the door and let us in..."

"Do you know this language?"

"Well, this is my research major."

Because he had been on an archaeological site with Mary before, it was easy for Duanmu Huai to disguise his identity - after all, the person who may have exposed his identity was probably destroyed in it long ago.

"Okay, let's go in."

Everyone looked at each other, but they still plucked up the courage and walked in with Duanmuhuai.

The cold inorganic lights sprinkled from the top of the head, illuminating the passage in front of you. The fan rotates and makes a buzzing sound, and everything here is in good condition due to the static force field. Or, at least in the same state as when they are stagnated.

Without the Imperial Guards, without the Air Service, it looks like it is abandoned? No, it looks more like a lockdown. But where have the people here gone?

Duanmuhuai walked through the corridor and came to the control hall, which was still in a mess. There can also be traces of laser shooting around. Unless a tech priest intends to test his mechanical tentacles here, something big must have happened here.

"Where is this place...?"

Professor Celtic's eyes widened in surprise, and the expressions of the others were also inexplicably surprised. In fact, this is understandable. After all, when it comes to ancient ruins, they are made of stone. But the place in front of them is a pure steel creation, and even an intake fan. If the decorations around them did not look modern, they would even think that they had gone to the wrong place.

However, it was only a moment of surprise. After a moment, everyone immediately came to their senses and walked along the passage toward the inside of the ruins.

Through the corridor, the group came to the hall, and here they soon saw several boxes and instruments placed in the center of the hall.

"This is Williams and their equipment!"

Professor Celtic hurriedly ran over and looked at the devices, including computers and some instruments. But these instruments seem to be damaged now and cannot be used at all. There were also a few rifles thrown on the ground next to them, and...

“…………”

A mercenary walked up and squatted on the ground silently, reaching out his hand to dip the blood on the ground.

"It's done."

"Has something happened to Professor Williams and the others?"

Seeing the blood, the rest of the scientific expedition team suddenly felt thrust in their hearts and subconsciously looked to the side. However, in the cold hall, there was no one except the statues made of steel on both sides of the walls staring at them coldly. They could not see anything except blood.

"Be careful."

Professor Celtic also looked solemn and spoke seriously. Then he signaled several mercenaries to raise their guns and walk in front, while others followed behind him.

"We go along with the blood and look for it!"

For them, there is no other way now.
