Chapter 275 Relics and Products
Soldiers and workers in brown labor uniforms were busy on the earth pit, and officers in orange conspicuous vests dispatched and coordinated them.
The excavation site of the ruins, which consisted of a large number of wooden frames and cranes, was simple and imperfect.
But it could be built with the necessary iron parts and wood available everywhere, without wasting time on building special construction equipment. There was no special content, no elegant way of excavation, just aim at the target with a shovel and a pickaxe and dig down.
Right in the center of the island, dig five meters down.
Ink-colored stones with a little light blue appeared in front of them. These stones only left a white mark when the pickaxe hit them. Only directional explosives could effectively destroy this extremely solid stone wall.
When applying explosives, Ji Lin was worried that a large amount of explosives would destroy the things inside the wall. Jiang Liu, the captain of the merchant ship, had seen it, but it was the first time that Ji Lin touched the ruins in this world.
It was inevitable that there was a kind of luck and resources that had been accumulated for a long time. He couldn't wait and carefully clicked on the card drawing interface, praying that this time he could turn the tide.
Confirm the location of the ruins, with the excavation point as the center of the circle.
A radius of five meters, clear out a closed door.
If the lord is killed during the expedition, he can be resurrected directly by consuming the same amount of resurrection permission according to his energy level and physical fitness... Ji Lin feels that he is not at the superman level yet, and at most his resurrection permission will be deducted if he dies.
After leaving the expedition and arriving at the territory, the system will only protect the lord from accidental death, and resurrection will still consume resurrection permission.
Unless the lord completely loses control of the territory and dies in rebellion, infiltration and other events, the system will take back everything given to the lord.
Only then will the lord usher in real death.
Then the original permission will be granted to the highest person in this territory.
Ji Lin looked at the map, and a new mark was displayed on the small map by the system. The floating inverted triangle mark marked that there was a special relic here.
He stretched out his hand and pressed on the door in front of the ruins, trying to trigger the internal mechanism to open the door according to the way Jiang Liu told him. The gate, which was much smaller than the medium-sized sky island, retreated to both sides. The cold wind blew in the face, causing the soldiers and workers behind to hold their tools tightly.
I don’t know if it was because his soldiers had already conducted a preliminary exploration, but the system directly displayed the name of this relic for him.
‘Relic: Sky Island Control Node’
Sky Island Control Node?...
Ji Lin took the torch and raised it, waiting for fresh air to come in and replace the long-stagnant air. He still remembered that Gui Yu told him that the corridor that had not been passed for a long time would accumulate toxic gases, so it would be better to wait for fresh air to blend in.
Holding the torch, he thought about how many years this so-called relic had been running, and it could still store enough energy to maintain the normal opening and closing of the gate.
Wait for a while for the internal ventilation to complete.
Rejecting the accompanying guards, Ji Lin pushed forward alone to open the second closed storage door in the depths. After walking down a short staircase, the light blue suspended sphere was in the center of the hall, and coexisting with the light blue sphere were... some humanoid skeletons?
Or... exoskeletons?
Ji Lin raised a bright torch to illuminate the small hall, and confirmed that what he saw in the corner was a four-meter-high structure that looked relatively intact. Unlike normal bones, it is made of heavy alloy with a metallic luster, but the half-wrapped shape makes it difficult to expect the protective ability of this thing.
Its structure is more inclined to support rather than provide protection for the driver.
The armor is continuously engraved with complex runes, which are connected and continued.
Walking to the structure that is looming in the shadows, Ji Lin looked at the space inside that can just accommodate one person, and reached out and pressed on the surface of a manned structure.
The coldness reflected the hardness of cold steel.
But it is dead, whether it is a structure or something else, it is completely dead.
The source material that Ji Lin input into it clearly feedbacks this result to Ji Lin.
The energy awakening failed, and all runes have been damaged.
No matter what it is, it has become no different from ordinary metal under the erosion of time, and the runes on it have been damaged and disabled bit by bit because they have not been maintained for too long.
Finally, the neatly arranged structures were transformed into metal statues that stood still.
There were twelve such humanoid structures in total, which was an unexpected surprise when excavating the ruins this time. Ji Lin exhaled and rubbed his hands. Jiang Liu had not encountered any other gains except the core.
It was just right to send these exoskeleton structures back to the School of Engineering for reverse research. The territory had expertise in runes and could repair and reverse research the ruins products related to runes.
Ji Lin stared at the square-headed structure and sighed.
It would be great if it was a still-running structure. These things would not be low in technology. The appearance of the twelve structures was so precise that it seemed as if they were carved out of a mold. There must be an industrial assembly line to manufacture them.
Ji Lin would regret his decision to see the still-running exoskeleton structure after a while... but now
He reached out and pressed on the crystal in the center of the ruins, mobilizing the source in his body to communicate with it deeply. The system's prompts were several times faster than the feedback given to him by this crystal.
‘The control node of the detection area has been controlled. The ruins of the controller’s faction control more than 80% of the area of the sky island. Regional control has been obtained.’
‘It has been detected that the outpost core has been deployed. Now you can upgrade the outpost core to the third level: outpost base on this sky island and obtain the construction rights of the entire sky island. ’
‘When you have the corresponding technology, you can buy special blueprints that can only be used in this world in the store. ’
‘The sky island belongs to the lord: Ji Lin’
‘Small sky island-control node-outpost core’
‘The special sky island blueprint has been unlocked. ’
