Starting From Zero

Volume 20, Chapter 171: A Cheating Exploration Mission

Through the description of peppers, we quickly constructed such a picture in our minds. A huge warship was shelling another warship on the sea. Then the warship next to it suddenly drove over at a fast speed and hit the middle of the warship. As the warship broke apart, the wreckage of the two ships was dragged together by the whirlpool. It sank to the bottom of the water, and then over many years, the earth's crust changed, the water turned into land, and the sediments completely buried the remains of the ship.

Of course, this is just our guess. After all, we are not sure whether this thing is a battleship or whether it is a surface ship, so this can only be our guess for the time being.

"Chili, can you find the power part of this ship?" I suddenly remembered that since Chili can sense the entire second half of the hull, it should be able to sense the power device. Judging from the weapons on this ship, this thing is definitely not sail-powered, so it must have its own power system. As long as the power system can be found, it is not difficult to guess what kind of ship this is, because the power system It must be designed for the navigation environment. It is definitely impossible for spacecraft and sea vessels to be propelled by one system.

Although my idea was very good, Pepper's answer was like a basin of cold water that poured cold water on me. "Sorry Master, the power room may no longer exist."

"Why?"

"This ship should have a special design. It seems that the power system can be taken directly out of the ship. Now there is only a big hole left in that part."

"You mean the power system is missing?"

"If the big hole I sensed originally contained the power system."

"Show us the way. Just go and take a look and we'll know." Ling said.

Under the guidance of Chili Pepper, we found the direction easily. When we encountered collapsed soil along the way, we asked the pioneers to get on. When we entered the cabin, we walked alone. If there was a wall blocking the way, we simply used Eternity to cut through it. Under this straight-line push with almost no turns, we quickly arrived at the place where Chili said was the power room, and then we discovered that this was actually not a power room but an energy center.

The reason why I dare to say that this is an energy room without seeing the core. Mainly because there are a large number of disconnected pipes on the walls here, and although the designs of these pipes are somewhat different. But because the principles were the same, Ling confirmed that this was a magic power transmission pipe with just a glance, and finally concluded that this was not the power room where the driving machinery was located. But an energy center. Its function is like the nuclear reactor on a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. Although the power energy of the thruster is provided by this, it is not a component that directly generates power, so it is useless to just find this thing. At most, you can only know the original nature of the ship. It also uses magic power.

However, although the propulsion system was not found, we did find the energy pipeline of the propulsion system here. With the presence of Chili Pepper, a humanoid clairvoyant, it only took us more than ten minutes to find the power room through this pipeline.

I have to say that the structure of this power chamber is a little unexpected. Because originally we imagined that we would find an anti-gravity device or one of the propeller systems here. As a result, we found a set of more than thirty driving devices similar to electric motors here, and the final power component connected to these things turned out to be wheels.

"Is this a car?" Looking at the row of huge wheels, I was really speechless.

Ling was also surprised to see the row of driving wheels that were half in the power room and half outside the hull. He didn't know what to say. Only Xiao Longnu finally said: "This shouldn't be considered a car, right? I think such a big thing is called mobile." The base is more suitable.”

"No matter what it is, it's for sure that this thing can't fly or go into the water. And even if this thing isn't broken and can be brought back intact, it doesn't mean anything to us." Ling commented after regaining his composure.

I know what Ling means. The position of the driving wheel of this thing is not sealed, which means that this thing cannot be launched into the water. Because it will leak. And it has no anti-gravity components, so it definitely can't fly. Finally, this thing is so big that there are almost no roads for it to travel on, and it is not so big that Essinger Mobile Fortress can use huge driving tracks to directly flatten forests and hills and move at will without being affected by the ground. Taking these factors together, in the end we can only say that this thing is a waste. Unless it is a super plain with flat ground, otherwise this thing is just a garbage platform. It looks good, but in fact it has no practical value at all. Of course, this refers to the overall structure of the vehicle, not the internal equipment. At least the cannons and individual weapons are pretty good, especially the disgusting mushroom bomb.

In view of the outrageous fact that this thing is actually a car, we finally decided to give up research on the main control system of this thing, and instead look for some technical relics that may exist in various parts of the car body. Of course, the first thing to disassemble is the row of wheels in front of you and those things that look like electric motors.

There are actually electric motors in the game, which many players have tried. After all, the basic principle of the electric motor is very simple, and it is not a troublesome thing to make one by hand. There are even players who learn lightning spells who can generate their own electricity to drive the motor to rotate. However, the ones used to drive the vehicle forward are not electric motors. These are real magic devices, and the internal structure has nothing to do with electric motors.

After dismantling all the magic devices and installing them, we started to return along the original path, then returned to the soil and relied on the channel dug by the pioneers to enter the ship that was previously detected by Chili Pepper with its head down and its tail tilted towards the sky. Plugged into a vehicle in the dirt. This car is obviously smaller than the one I entered before, but the structure is stronger, because when we entered this car, I took a lot of effort to cut the armor plate on the outside of the car body.

Because the armor plate of this vehicle caused certain obstacles to the Eternal City, we collected a large piece of armor and stuffed it into the Wind Dragon space. We hope that the material research institute at Essinger can analyze the formula of this metal later. and manufacturing methods. Then we can also make this metal.

In fact, what I value more is the density of this thing than the hardness of the metal. I originally thought that the specific gravity of such a strong metal should be very high, but after cutting off a piece of it, I found that the density of this thing is actually lower than that of aluminum. Even a piece as big as a bed board feels light and airy in my hand. Because our guild is making spaceships, I think this kind of hardness is stronger than steel. Metals that are lighter than aluminum should have a wide range of uses.

After collecting metal samples, we entered the interior of the car.

Unlike the half of the vehicle we entered before, this vehicle was stuck head down in the soil. Therefore, almost all the original passages have become vertical shafts, making it inconvenient to move up and down. Fortunately, we have good mobility here. Otherwise it would be really inconvenient to move around here.

The location we entered this time was the parking space of this car. And because of Chili’s help, we headed directly towards the power room. After successfully entering the power room, we discovered a magical device similar to the previous car, except that the number of equipment here was smaller and the size was smaller. It seemed that this car should be a lightweight model. Of course, this lightweight is analyzed based on the proportion of the car just now. After all, even if it is smaller than the car just now, this thing is still nearly a thousand meters long. Such a big thing is quite scary even for a battleship, not to mention it's just a car.

"Isn't this car like the one just made by a group of people?" Xiao Longnu asked after observing the power.

Yeyue also nodded and said, "Maybe this is a car accident scene."

"Such a big thing can cause a car accident. How blind does the driver have to be?" Chili asked curiously.

"A car accident is definitely impossible." Ling said: "You have also seen the marks on the previous car. They can only be traces of battle. The two cars were not in a car accident, but now this car actively hit But judging from the traces at the scene, someone left after the impact and took some things with them, so it is impossible for us to find anything too valuable."

I also nodded and said: "Exploring the ruins of God's civilization is a task, not a reward, so I don't think we will find too many valuable things. We just need to collect as many potentially useful things as possible to complete the task."

Everyone nodded and continued working.

After leaving that powerhouse we moved on to explore other locations. In addition to the damage caused by the impact, this ship is obviously not as damaged as the one just now, and the body is only slightly twisted and deformed. There are no penetrating wounds, so the internal structure is well preserved.

We followed the passage all the way down, that is, towards the front of the car, and found more than n rooms of various types along the way. We found a lot of messy little things in them, but they were basically useless or unclear. What is it used for, and because of the psychological impact caused by mushroom bombs, we don’t dare to try those unknown objects randomly now. If another deceptive bomb comes, we will be out of luck.

It took more than two hours to run all the way to the front of the car. During this period, I heard prompts from several other groups of people to complete tasks. And the tasks that have not been completed yet seem to be except for our exploration task here. Only the three tasks in the low demon plane are left. Seeing as it is still early, we are not in a hurry to complete the task and help others. Anyway, their side has more people than me for any task.

We finally found a very special room near the front of the car. The interior structure of this room is rather strange. In the center of the room is a relatively low area where a large number of densely packed pipes are connected to a spherical metal device. Surrounding this relatively low area are three-story circular corridors, the upper, middle and lower floors. Each corridor has a dense circle of operating consoles, and there are many control switches on each operating console, let alone actual control. Just looking at it makes me feel dizzy.

"What is this?" Yeyue said after entering the room, relying on her snake tail to move quickly, and was the first to swim to the metal ball in the center, patting the thing.

Ling also flew down with the help of Brigitte, then inspected the sphere close to it, then ran to the operating consoles to observe for a while, and even opened one of the operating consoles to conduct some simple inspections. During this period, Chili used his telepathy to describe to us the anatomy of the equipment in this room. The most obvious thing that can be seen is that the metal sphere in the center is actually empty. Although I don't know what was originally contained in this sphere, I can be sure that this thing is not like this.

After spending more than ten minutes inspecting it, Ling came to the conclusion that this was a place similar to a command center. The metal ball with a diameter of more than two meters in the center should be a very important core. It may be some kind of magic device with computer functions. In addition, the consoles outside are all for operators, and their job may be to assist the thing in the center. This model can be considered to mean that the thing in the center, which may be a computer, has relatively weak computing power. Or maybe it's just the opposite, that thing's elemental ability is too strong. No one has time to read the results.

Whatever the reason, the answer that this thing could be a computer still surprises us. However, after Yeyue and the others were looking around, they didn't know what they encountered. But we discovered something even more amazing.

Just when everyone was checking various items separately. A beam of light was suddenly projected from the original top of the room, and then the beam of light spread around and turned into a cone-shaped light pillar. Finally, the light pillar shone a few times and depicted an old man wearing a strange robe in the air.

After the old man appeared, a mental wave began to play in the room simultaneously. It's not a sound signal, but a mental wave, which solves the language barrier problem. As the words transmitted by the mental power appeared, the old man also began to explain simultaneously, and we quickly understood what was happening here.

First of all, the damage to these two cars was not caused by the small car we are now in hitting the larger car. But the big car deliberately let the small car hit it.

In fact, the makers of these two vehicles are a high-level civilization with a nomadic nature. This kind of car is a city to them, a car is a city, and they can drive the car to various places to find resources at will.

According to the meaning conveyed by the old man's mental power, the car we are in now should actually be the capital of their country, and the broken car is a fortress city in a hostile country.

At that time, the force to which the fortress city car belonged attacked the force to which the capital city car belonged, and the capital city car seemed to run away. During the interception, the opponent deliberately stood in front of it to prevent it from escaping. However, they did not expect that the Capital City Car was so strong that it actually broke the Fortress City Car. Of course, the auto industry in the capital city has stalled because of this, so it can be said that neither party has made a profit.

After confirming that the Capital City car was damaged and unable to continue escaping, the captain of the car. In other words, this old man, who was equivalent to the mayor of the capital, made a decision. He decided to use a special weapon that was still in the research stage to deal with the pursuers behind him.

The name of this weapon is named "Possible Space-Time Disorder Generator". The name is weird, and the ability is even weirder. To put it bluntly, this thing is to change the current historical state. If you have read time-travel literature and know the principles of changing ancient history and thus affecting modern history, then you can roughly understand how this weapon works. Although it will not send people to the past to change the existing history, it can skip this step and directly change the current history. In other words, this thing may cause a certain existence to cease to exist as soon as it is activated, or it may cause something that does not exist to suddenly appear. In short, it will cause the current state to change.

However, because the research has not been completed, this thing is relatively unreliable for the time being. Although it can work, the effect cannot be specified, so it is not known whether it will produce good or bad results in the end. However, this country and another country are sworn enemies. They never take prisoners between the two. If they are caught, they will die. Therefore, the people here don't care about the research progress and just plan to take a gamble.

In the end they were obviously having fun. The machine was started and it did work, but the results were astonishing. First of all, the pursuer disappeared. In fact, not only the pursuers, but according to the old man, all living things in the world have disappeared except for the old man himself. They completely disappeared, as if they had never existed.

This change was so terrible that the old man had a nervous breakdown. He tried to use that thing again to gamble again, but found that the "possible space-time disorder generator" disappeared inexplicably even after it was activated. As a result, the old man had to face the fact that he was the only one left in the world.

Unable to bear the mental pressure, the old man finally committed suicide. Before he died, he left this video behind, and he didn't know who would see it. He just said that if someone saw it in the future, they should remember their lesson.

Originally, I wanted to study their "possible space-time disorder generator", but it was just like the old man said. The thing disappeared, and the missing hollow area in the metal ball was originally where the thing was placed.

in addition. Although this "possible space-time disorder generator" is missing, according to sources, other equipment here is intact. And he canceled his identity authentication before committing suicide. In other words, this thing can now accept all operations without permission.

Unfortunately, the old man's approach is actually meaningless. Although she said that the permission restrictions were lifted, the car was already in a semi-scrap state and had no use value at all. I couldn't get it out. The only thing I could do was to use the control terminal here to open the car. All doors, and through the internal structure of the vehicle shown in that video, we know the functions of each cabin here. So the next action is just to follow this diagram to find useful things.

Because I had a map and knew that the defense mechanisms in the car were closed, I no longer looked for things cautiously. I immediately released all the magic pets and summoned creatures suitable for moving here and started to help me move. While the Qilin Warrior and the magic pets were looking for things, Ling, who did not leave because he was not feeling well, pointed at the map. One of the areas asked: “What is this place for?”

Because this is a three-dimensional view, this inconspicuous area was previously blocked by another area specifically marked as an ammunition depot, so I didn't see this place before. After hearing Ling's question, I went around to the other side to read the introduction above. Because of the previous mental reminder, we have also deciphered part of the text here. With the assistance of electronic brains, we can basically learn a language instantly. So this thing is not a problem for me.

After reading the strange words marked on that room, I knew where this place was as soon as I compared it to the memory bank. "database."

"Database? Is it a library?" Ling asked in surprise.

I also suddenly reacted. "When the mission says to investigate the civilization of gods, doesn't it mean that this is the information about this place?"

"Just go and take a look and you will know." Ling suggested.

"But everyone is busy."

"Then let's go there by ourselves. It's not very far anyway."

"But you...?" I was still worried that Ling had not recovered. After all, she relied on magic, and her magic induction was much stronger than mine, so the previous mushroom bomb had a much stronger impact on her than on me.

"It's much better now, it's okay."

"Then let's go take a look."

After pulling Ling out of this room, we moved along the route we had noted down, and soon the room marked on the map was found. This place is not far from the ammunition depot, separated by a replacement parts storage warehouse and a corridor.

After successfully arriving at this room, I immediately stepped forward and pushed open the door of the room. As a result, I immediately saw a huge space filled with rows of cabinets. Unlike ordinary libraries, this is a pure data storage room, not a place for people to read books, so there are no gaps between the bookshelves here. Each cabinet is densely packed with classified books and information, and the cabinets are also closely connected to each other. If you need to see any information, you must first pull other cabinets along the sliding guide rails, and then you can enter that one. Go in through a very narrow gap to check the information.

Thanks to this dense arrangement, although this room is not as huge as an ordinary large library, it has a considerable amount of books. And the moment we entered the room, the task prompts finally changed. A parentheses appeared after the original mission to search for the civilization of gods, with information like "0100000" inside the parentheses.

After seeing such information, I immediately guessed that the mission was these books, so I tried to pick up a book. The result was that the prompt did not change at all, which made me feel nervous. I quickly tried another book. Fortunately, This time the prompt in the brackets changed to "1100000".

"It seems that not all the information here is useful." Ling said.

I thought for a while and said: "I now understand why the system issues such a task." Ling looked at me with some doubts and waited for my explanation. I didn't keep her waiting. Instead, he continued directly: "This mission may seem strange, but in fact it is testing our intelligence screening, personnel allocation and material transportation capabilities. According to the mission prompt, we need to transport one hundred thousand books from here, but There are at least two million books and materials here, so we must screen out these things. However, the time given to us by the system is limited, which requires our personnel to have the ability to quickly screen. At least they cannot pick them up one by one like I just did. Check to see if the numbers have changed, otherwise the task will have timed out when all 100,000 books are found. In addition, even if these books can be found quickly, whether they can be carried away is another problem. 100,000 books stacked together are enough to fill several There are only 24 people in total for our mission, and the system obviously requires us to split up, which means that there can't be 24 people participating in this exploration mission. It takes such a small number of people to transport several trucks. Book, this requires considerable space equipment, which is also one of the tests of the guild's strength. Therefore, this task is not as simple as it seems. In other words, the conditions of our guild are relatively good, even if the average guild It turns out that they probably won’t be able to transport all the books here, and they won’t even have time to pick out those books before the mission time arrives.”

"But this is not a problem for us." With a snap of Ling's fingers, the Phoenix Dragon Space appeared directly next to us. Then a large group of ghosts suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then these ghosts began to carry the books on the bookshelves back and forth. Some ghosts even directly dismantled the entire bookshelves on the outside and threw them into Fenglong Space. The reason why others need to screen books and materials is that they cannot carry so many books, but for me, this is not a problem at all. I can completely carry all the books here, so I don’t need to screen them now. I can totally carry them all. Pack it up and take it away, then pick it up later when you go back.

The speed of selecting useful books one by one and throwing them into Fenglong Space was definitely different, so it took us less than twenty minutes to completely empty out the place. However, after we finished the room, I became anxious because the reality on the prompt message actually changed to "99937100000".

"Damn it, why are there 63 copies missing?"

Ling looked at various places in the room in confusion, because the ghosts later discovered that it was faster to dismantle the bookshelf than to move the books one by one, so now the place has been completely emptied. The library without bookshelves is now completely blank, and it is impossible to hide anything. There are still omissions, which only means that the target book is not here at all.

"Would you like to ask Chili to come over and see if there is a secret room or something like this?"

I frowned and thought for a while, and then suddenly understood. "Damn it, I was tricked by the system. This mission is really a trick!"

"What's wrong?" Ling asked me anxiously.

I frowned and said, "Those books are not here at all, and they are not thrown away, but the most normal thing happened."

"The most normal situation?"

"Yes, the most normal situation."

Ling suddenly reacted and shouted: "Were they loaned out?"

I nodded and said, "This is the most reasonable explanation."

"Then what should I do? This place is so big, and I'm not sure how long it will take to find it if I search for it from room to room."

"It doesn't have to be so strenuous, but it doesn't save much effort." I said, "There will definitely be records of books borrowed from the library. As long as you know who borrowed them, you can go to the main control room and check the map to find the person's activity area. If you go and look around, you will definitely find books. The system will not deliberately set impossible tasks, it is just to test us."

"But we don't have any book borrowing records here."

"The record is in the library, but it was thrown into the Phoenix Dragon Space by us."

"Now what?"

"Use the stupidest method to find them one by one. Anyway, there are many of us, so we should be able to make it in time."

Although the human sea tactic is not omnipotent, in many cases you have to admit that the truth that there is strength in numbers is correct. After recruiting all the scattered summoned creatures, I took everyone back to the ground, and then asked Fenglong to pour out all the books we had stuffed in. Then I connected with the summoned creatures through various connections. The channel transfers all possible record phrases such as catalogs and records in the local text to everyone's memory, and then everyone starts looking for books with these keywords.

Although there are nearly two million books and materials of various types here. But I have more than 20,000 Kirin warriors here, and the average is only 200 copies per person. Besides, no matter how unlucky we are, we won't just find the last ォDiscovery Catalog, right?

In fact, our luck was not bad, but rather good. It only took less than ten minutes for a Qilin Warrior to discover the record. Then we compared the record translation and found a lot of book borrowing records, but the number was obviously much more than the information we lacked.

Here is actually another trap. If we were to retrieve all the books that we had borrowed. That will definitely take up time, but actually you can be lazy here. After comparing the general situation of useful books and useless books among the several books in hand, we speculated on the screening range required by the system. Judging from the systematic counting of books in these books that we have. What the system wants us to bring out is actually only three categories: technical information, humanities and history, and artistic achievements. Other purely literary works such as personal autobiographies, academic conjectures, and many essays are not included in the collection at all. In fact, this part is actually the largest number of books in the library.

According to this rule, those records of borrowing novels and so on can be passed directly. Although there are still many remaining records, at least they are not as exaggerated as before. In addition, what is more fortunate is that this record not only records the name of the borrower, but also the location of the person's residence. This way we don't have to go to the main control room to guess the approximate range based on the map. We can just follow the record. You can pinpoint where that person lives. Of course, it is also possible that someone took the book out of the settlement when they disappeared, but at least the probability is very low, so this saves us a lot of time.

After confirming the location of the possible books, we immediately divided our forces into two places. Some of us stayed on the ground to stuff the books that had just been poured out back, while the other group of people followed me down to the ruins below to look for books again. With the help of detailed location information and maps, it took us less than 20 minutes to find more than 100 books. After testing, we found that all 63 missing books were found in the first batch. came out, and when we returned to the ground, the books we had dumped out before were also put back into Fenglong Space, and the system also prompted that the task was completed.

So far, all the tasks in the God Realm have been completed. Because the mission on the low magic plane was not completed yet, I put away the summoned creatures and familiars and returned to the teleportation channel. Then he returned to the low-demon plane and prepared to help others complete their tasks.

I have just arrived in the low-demon plane, and before I can ask about the location of the other troops guarding here, the system has already prompted the mission goal eight: to help the monarch Akaron establish a new empire that unites politics and religion. In other words, we still have two tasks left to complete. One is the ninth task: activating the magic system of the low magic world to evolve it into the high magic world. One is the tenth task: teaching the monarch Akalon how to manage a country.

The tenth task is a teaching task, because the king cannot study two courses at the same time, so it is useless to go with more people. Then, there is only one remaining task that can help. .

Although I know that I should help the three of them with the ninth mission now, but because there is no crystal communication base station support here, our teams cannot communicate with each other, so I don’t know where the three of them are running now. If you go, you can only go to the king first.

Because the low magic plane has been basically controlled, we can move around openly and openly. Therefore, Gold Coin and their actions do not need to be kept secret. Instead, they will contact the local garrison from time to time and leave messages. This is mainly It is a convenient way for us to communicate with each other. Although these soldiers from the low magic plane have very poor combat effectiveness and cannot be of much help, they can still serve as messengers.

When I arrived outside the king's palace and was about to go in and ask about the whereabouts of others, I happened to see a large group of spears flying out of the palace. Without saying a word, I summoned birds and chased after them.

Masamoto Matsumoto saw me chasing after me from behind and took the initiative to leave the team and come closer. "President, are you back?"

"Well, the missions in the God Realm have been completed. The missions over Rose don't need anyone's help. I was just about to ask where the gold coins went so I could help, but I didn't expect to see you flying out of the palace. I guess you must have asked the location of the three of them and rushed to help, so I caught up with them."

After hearing what I said, Masamoto Matsumoto nodded and said: "We are indeed here to help, but we don't know where they are at the moment. The latest news said that they appeared in a place called Bailin. It seems that Kristina still uses A big move blew away a mountain, we plan to go there first to see if we can find any trace of them."

I thought for a while and said: "My flying birds are fast. You and I will go over first and let them fly slowly behind, so as not to waste time."! . --Cai Ming Pavilion--
