The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 318 Upgrading Hardware

Hesperius had previously imagined a lot about this "located in the Eastern Continent, isolated from the world, peaceful and safe" sanctuary mentioned by Vivian, but now she found that her imagination basically didn't match it. , when she thought she would see a magical secret realm like the shadow city of Athens, Hao Ren took her to see the old Chinese houses along the way. When she thought she would see a barren mountain, Hao Ren took her She looked at a rental house that looked like an ordinary house. When she finally accepted the reality and thought she would see an ordinary basement full of clutter, Hao Ren showed her a row of coffins...

Strictly speaking, it is a coffin that shines with silvery white luster and blue light as if it were taken out of a science fiction movie.

"You call these things magic... props?" Hesperius looked at Hao Ren playing with those weird silver-white metal boxes, and couldn't help but be filled with questions, "I'm not good at reading. Master, I watched the Library of Alexandria be built with my own eyes - don’t lie to me."

"This thing is indeed different from the magic you have in mind, and I am also different from the wizard you have in mind, but there are so many mysterious things in this world, why bother to figure them out one by one," Hao Ren said. The terminal was connected to a sleep cabin, and the initial readings of the system were set. He turned to wink at Hesperius, "Actually, these things are highly confidential. Most people will be silenced if they see it, but for aliens, ——Especially for an alien like you, there is no need to keep it secret. The things you need to keep secret are no less than my equipment. Come on, let me check you first and just lie down in it."

Hao Ren has read the confidentiality agreement thoroughly, and through his contact with Raven 12345, he has a deep understanding of the upper and lower limits of the goddess sister. He now knows which loopholes can be exploited and which loopholes cannot be exploited. To put it bluntly, the rules and regulations of the Administration revolve around the core of "the development of civilization without interference." Therefore, the existence of the Space-Time Administration itself needs to be kept secret, but he occasionally allows a few aliens to see something surreal when necessary. In fact, it has no impact. As long as he can solve the next troubles by himself, it will be no problem for him to lead an alien like Hesperus to "lay in the coffin".

Of course, if you don't want to cause social unrest, it's best not to let ordinary humans see these things in your basement. After being influenced by atheism in recent years, ordinary people today have a much weaker ability to accept abnormal things than aliens.

Hesperius hesitantly looked at the coffin next to Hao Ren. This thing was so bright and so cold that it made people frightened. Although there were high-tech holographic projection panels floating on both sides, they couldn't stop it. The main body really looks like a coffin, but after all, she is a person who has seen strong winds and waves. This "goddess" of the past dusk thought that there was no need for the other party to harm herself, so she finally gritted her teeth and stamped her feet: "Do you need to change clothes?"

Before Hao Ren could say anything, Lily next to her immediately raised her ears and stared at them alertly. Hao Ren quickly waved his hand: "No, no, just lie down."

Hesperius lay down in the coffin as instructed, and the metal hatch slowly closed. She soon entered a deep sleep state under the influence of the device, and the data terminal began to read the other party's body parameters.

Not just the wound on his forehead, the first thing to read was Hesperius's complete set of physiological indicators.

"The body structure is basically similar to that of humans, but the shape of the respiratory organs is weird. It can handle three types of atmospheres: extremely oxygen-rich, extremely hypoxic, and highly sulfurated. There are two sets of blood circulation organs, and neither of them is the heart. It is a structure similar to a systemic blood vessel pump. , the cells are very strong and can withstand high temperatures and high electromagnetic environments. The bones are hollow, and there is some kind of liquid with unknown function inside. The bones are extremely strong, and the material is almost metal... The growth rate of newborns of this race must be very slow," Data Terminal While analyzing, these data were recorded in a certain archive. "The brain activity in the sleeping state is still very high. This should be the part used to control magic... Mental activity should be the instinct of this race. Comprehensive evaluation, all indicators are Far superior to humans. Even judging by her physical strength alone, she is twenty to thirty times stronger than humans. The above parameters do not take into account her magical power."

Hao Ren listened and nodded, while Lily felt a little hairy on her body. She tugged on Hao Ren's sleeve with her tail between her legs: "What are you doing?"

"Create a database." Hao Ren saw that Lily was a little fussy. He stretched out his hand to touch the latter's head and smiled. "There are too many alien species on the earth, and they have mutated for so many generations. They are still different from their ancestors in the Dream Plane." I always can't match the numbers. I think we should set up something similar to a species archive to count them. Then we can compare the dream plane with the aliens on the earth, and do some genetic tracing... maybe Find out how these races have changed over the past 10,000 years."

Lily looked at Hao Ren in surprise: "Ah, I suddenly feel that you, landlord, are so powerful!"

Hao Ren scratched his face unnaturally: "I just remembered it two days ago. I have to do something on my own, or God knows when I will be able to become a full-time employee. And now I am really curious about strange phenomena. I want to rely on myself." I have the ability to investigate this matter and find out--so that at least I can be tougher when I go to Raven to ask for bonuses in the future."

Lily stuck out her tongue: "It sounds good, but it feels like Frankenstein on TV...it has an evil feel."

Hao Ren really admired Lily's idea: "Ahem... I'm doing this for science! And didn't you find that I am pure from my motives to my actions?"

"That's true," Lily scratched her hair, and suddenly her ears twitched as she remembered something, "Hey, in this case, wouldn't you still want to collect information on werewolves, vampires, etc.? You don't have to bother, I'm here! Give it to me anytime. Scan it?"

Hao Ren opened his mouth: "Well... next time, next time."

Lily said "Oh" and didn't care, but Hao Ren broke out in a cold sweat: He almost told the truth just now! He really didn't plan to collect werewolf information from Lily, because God knows whether such a girl transformed from a husky is a werewolf! Hao Ren felt that Lily was not representative at all. Maybe she was a creature of its own kind taken from a werewolf...

At least until he finds the second husky spirit, he will never include Lily in his database, not for anything else but for the sake of scientific rigor!

While Hesperus was scanning, Hao Ren and Lily started busy arranging another set of simple equipment in the basement.

Together with Lily, he dug out some compression-molded panels and iron pipes and steel frames left over from the renovation many years ago from the small warehouse next door, and planned to build a bathroom-sized cubicle in the corner of the room. Fortunately, the basement was quite large, even if Weiwei was removed. There is also an open space equivalent to a living room for sleeping and placing the sleeping cabins. Even with such a compartment, it does not take up much space. Then he took out some desktop-sized discs and some prefabricated parts from his personal space, and placed them in the center of the open space where he was going to build the partition. The disc-shaped object was made of silver-white metal, exquisite and full of technology. Many shimmering blue lines could be seen on its surface, which was very similar to the style of the equipment on the Giant Turtle Rock Platform.

Lily looked at these things strangely: "What are you trying to do?"

"Make a portal." Hao Ren said as he released something from his portable space.

What was released this time was a mechanical squid with teeth and claws!

This was an autonomous machine brought from the Giant Turtle Rock Platform. Hao Ren had always kept it in his personal space for emergencies, and now it came in handy. This scary-looking strange thing made a series of chirping sounds. Under Hao Ren's instructions, it began to assemble the equipment on the ground. It soon became a two-meter-diameter teleportation platform, and then began to wave its tentacles around the platform. Xi patted and adjusted, and finally it started the pre-programmed transmission device and disappeared in front of Hao Ren and Lily in an instant.

A few seconds later, the teleportation platform lit up again. The mechanical squid turned around from somewhere and teleported back. It waved its tentacles up and down to Hao Ren, grunting to indicate that the teleportation was successful.

"This thing can lead to the ecological zone of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform," Hao Ren pointed to the teleportation platform. "I exchanged this set of equipment from the management office two days ago. In the future, we can use this teleportation platform when we go to the spaceship. This way, if I'm not with you, you can use this to escape in case of an emergency at home."

Hao Ren finally remembered that he should upgrade the hardware of his "base camp", but Lily jumped up happily: "Hey! It feels like a secret base! It's so exciting!"

"Quiet, quiet," Hao Ren pressed Lily's head to stop her from jumping, "Let's surround this thing first. This thing will keep glowing when it is in standby mode. Vivian will not be able to sleep at night."

Lily immediately rolled up her sleeves and began to bend the steel pipes taken out of the warehouse into suitable parts. The data terminal next to her scanned Hesperius's body information and finally began to check his wounds. The result was... Discovered an unexpected situation: "Hey, Hao Ren, come and see, there is something stuck in her head..."
