1744 Investigation

Raymond found a gap at the bottom of the giant spaceship and soon found that the area he entered was the warehouse of the spaceship.

However, the things originally stored there had been emptied, leaving only some crude supporting columns that were about to collapse due to corrosion.

This huge warehouse, which was 100 meters high, seemed to have been equipped with many super-large cabinets. Its huge weight left clear marks on the metal floor, and in those areas with fixed shelves, you can see the drag marks extracted from the support frame.

Analysis of the materials of these metal brackets shows that the metal frames here are all inferior metals, which are only strong and not precious.

And in this weightless environment, the discarded metal objects floating around obviously cannot provide more data for analysis. Therefore, after taking Becky to complete the inspection and exploration of this area similar to the bottom cabin, Raymond recorded the location of hundreds of elevator shafts leading to the upper floor and began to search floor by floor.

After two hourglasses, Raymond, who was advancing with Becky in an open area full of pillars and shelves, finally felt a signal similar to an electromagnetic pulse wave on one side of the spaceship.

There was a red light flashing in his eyes. Raymond, who could clearly receive these signals through the chip, could not help but become more and more confused.

Because the encryption method of this signal was surprisingly simple.

Although the signal collected by the chip was not enough for further analysis, the encoding method used was similar to the most primitive combination of Morse code and ultra-short wave!

Seeing that Raymond stopped moving forward in vain, Becky, who turned back, couldn't help but wonder. "My lord, what did you find?"

Raymond shook his head and faced the half-open hatch not far ahead for a moment before speaking. "Let's continue to go up. These areas seem to be storage areas. If you want to gain something, you still need to enter its core area..."

Becky nodded with doubts on her face. After turning around and finding a new elevator shaft, she continued to go up with Raymond.

In the center of the elevator shaft with hundreds of square meters, there are only four huge alloy steel cables left. After rising dozens of floors, the area it leads to gradually began to change.

However, the changes on each floor are not big, because most of them are extremely empty areas, which have no meaning of exploration and cannot obtain more useful information.

However, in the inspection of these areas, Raymond found a large number of old password devices, some of which even use the most primitive mechanical password locks, but their lock cylinders and internal springs have been completely scrapped. There is no way to activate them again.

When the height rises to the middle area, with the discovery of the experimental area and plant cultivation area, Raymond found some strange records in a room with a triple password lock.

An incomplete formula engraved on the wall with duodecimal system was marked in the analysis of the chip. This is a calculation series about the trajectory of an object. Although it is not complete in itself, it is already a category that must be involved in outer space navigation.

With the continuous upward movement, similar texts or formulas appeared in many rooms.

But these rooms were left with only their frames, as if they had been carefully cleaned, and no useful objects were left. Not to mention that there were any useful data or documents.

The huge space was left with only those metal frames that were fixed and could not be moved or removed. Becky, feeling the atmosphere becoming more and more solemn, actually shrank her body and sat on Raymond's left shoulder again, giving up the search for this environment.

It was just that the ultra-short waves that were generated every once in a while were gradually analyzed with the continuous collection of the chip, which surprised him greatly!

Because the content of the signal seemed to be a warning, which was repeatedly played over and over again.

Could it be that this message was reserved?

However, from the area that has been searched so far, this spaceship has been carefully inspected. Except for its overall frame that has not been dismantled due to the material, all other facilities have been completely cleared.

Why would such a message be sent out repeatedly?

I don't quite understand. But the chip has roughly determined its specific location because it is close to the source of the emission.

But after arriving at the direction determined by the chip. What appeared in front of us was a metal column without any obstruction!

The metal column with a diameter of nearly ten meters supported the frame of each layer. Below was the empty area that had been searched before, and above was a nearly straight passage!

Circling around this metal column, the scratches left on its surface when the objects were removed can still be clearly seen, and its interior is also completely the same ordinary alloy with extremely high hardness as the surface.

At an altitude of more than a thousand meters, looking up from below, there is a feeling of being extremely small, but as Raymond slowly ascended, Becky, who was sitting on his shoulder, finally felt the obscure fluctuations in the environment here.

"My lord, why do I feel a fluctuation here?"

"It is somewhat similar to the communication means of the Sith tribe, but in terms of development, it should be a technical means thousands of years ago..."

Before Raymond finished speaking, Becky, who stood up from his left shoulder, even changed her voice. "But I feel uneasy! I can't see anything here, but I just feel uneasy..."

Raymond, who was still rising around the metal pillar, also felt something unusual almost at the same time as she spoke!

It was an extremely cold environment, but the temperature around him suddenly began to drop, and a flash of light flashed from above, turning his vision into a white expanse!

Raymond, who did not notice the danger coming, immediately found that at the top of the metal pillar, a faint light appeared, filling the passage he was in!

Raymond, who immediately increased his speed, appeared at the end of the metal pillar before the warning signal disappeared. At this time, Raymond, whose vision had just recovered, was surprised by everything around him!

Under a hemispherical dome, there is a platform that looks like an observation room. At the top of this metal column, there is a gradually extinguished dim light. After the light released passes through the crystal-like dome, it forms a ripple-shaped glare, which illuminates the outside of the crystal-like shield!

Everything within the field of vision is returning to its original state as the dim light disappears, but the signal that was previously perceived did not disappear with it, but became somewhat clearer.

Raymond, with red light in his eyes, was stunned by the analysis conclusion given by the chip, because the signal source determined by the chip actually existed at the end of this metal column.

But at the end of this metal column, there is no facility that can release light and transmit signals!

The metal column that was penetrated by perception could not detect any abnormality from inside to outside, and could not feel any fluctuations.

So I thought, could this metal column have life, which can make it continuously release dim light and that warning message?

But metal life cannot transmit information in this way, not to mention that its properties also determine that it cannot release any light!

While thinking, Becky, who was standing on his left shoulder, pulled the hair beside his ear and spoke in a low voice. "My lord, I think we should leave here..."

"Do you think there is something wrong with this metal pillar?"

"There is nothing abnormal inside or outside this metal pillar, but the moment before the faint light disappeared, I felt inexplicably frightened, as if something bad would happen if I touched it..."

When Becky spoke, Raymond, who was approaching the top of the metal pillar, was stunned, but before Becky finished speaking, the light that suddenly flashed on the surface of the metal pillar changed everything around Raymond... (To be continued ~^~)
