Chapter 404 Repair
Terra Calendar 1590.11.30.
Corsica Island·The Kingdom of Heaven's investigation site in the Alki Mountains.
The sun shines on the top of the mountains through the blue sky, and the peaks of the mountain peaks flash in the sunlight. The forests in the mountains seem to have been severely damaged, and the trees have fallen down, forming a maze of forests. Almost all man-made buildings and starting facilities in the valley were destroyed, and the buildings became a pile of ruins, leaving only messy rubble and smoke.
The clouds and fog that originally shrouded this crazy mountain range have completely dissipated at this moment.
"The inner world of the earth collapsed!?"
As a geological expert at Miskatonic University, Dr. William has never seen any storms.
However, today he had to admit that an inner earth world hosting two civilizations collapsed in less than two months. This was the first time he had seen such a thing like two civilizations announcing GG at the same time. arrive.
“Well, the core sun is still well preserved, but due to earthquakes and tsunamis, it will take some time to contain the core sun. Our task today is to complete the mission of Corsica with that adult. During the inspection and handover, we also delivered to him the ruin machinery excavated from the center of the ruins."
"Oh, by the way, this is the geological inspection report of Corsica during this period. Read it. After that, I knew that the inner earth world had really collapsed.”
Hansa, the senior researcher of the Kingdom of Heaven in Corsica, handed the report in his hand to the professor of the University of Michigan who was still in shock. He was actually shocked himself. Originally, their investigation in the inner earth world was good, but the fourth sword-wielding sword of the Kingdom of Heaven However, the people suddenly stopped their investigation project and asked them to quickly withdraw from the inner earth world. At first, he thought that the other party was going to start using force to interfere with the development of civilization, and might launch a military expedition.
Unexpectedly, the man with the sword directly destroyed the two civilizations in the inner earth and exploded the inner earth world.
The Angel of Disaster, the Angel of Death...
As expected, there were only wrong names, not wrong nicknames.
While Hansa was complaining, Dr. William had also received the report submitted by the other party.

"It's really terrifying. This is just the aftermath. [The Crowned Ones] are all monsters." Dr. William clicked his tongue after reading this.
The earthquakes and tsunamis that occurred in Corsica in the past three days have really made local residents and researchers stationed here feel that the end is coming. Although they do not know the specific reasons, they can It must be related to the fourth sword-bearer of the Kingdom of Heaven who is active in the area. This gentleman's past resume is too impressive.
Especially the special attack attribute that allows you to attack wherever you go, which does not give people any sense of security.
"By the way, what is the sword-wielding man doing during this time? I have recently seen a lot of very large salvage construction ships sailing on the sea. Obviously the regional government has issued a ban due to tsunamis and storms, but these projects The ship was still moving forward one after another towards the core area of the storm. I looked at the ship's sign and it seemed that it was a salvage ship from your paradise. Can you tell me what these salvage ships are going to do?" Dr. William suddenly looked at Han curiously. Sa asked.
"I only know that they were ordered by the Honkai Administration Bureau. The internal report said that they went to that sea area to salvage and recycle discarded garbage." Hansa replied.
"Why do so many super-large salvage ships need to be dispatched for garbage?" Dr. William smacked his tongue again.
“Who knows.”
Rumble~
While the two researchers were talking, a huge roar came from the sky, which was the engine of the helicopter. sound and the sound of the propeller turning.
Dr. William looked up and saw a majestic and mighty armed transport aircraft flying in the sky. It had a huge and mighty appearance. Its four turboprop engines roared through the clouds. The sun's rays reflected on the metal surface of the fuselage. shine.
The wingspan of the aircraft is relatively large, and the wingtips are slightly upward to help reduce aerodynamic drag and improve fuel efficiency.
Dr. William immediately recognized the model of the armed transport aircraft, [KC-13 Angel], the most common military aircraft on war fronts and conflict zones.
"Let's go, that adult is down. Follow him. Don't you want to ask him for biological samples from the inner earth world?" Hansa woke up Dr. William, who was in a daze next to him.
As he spoke, Hansa stepped forward first. Dr. William saw this and immediately followed.
The KC-13 skillfully passed through these high mountains. The hardpoints under its wings were empty and no additional equipment was hung.
The plane continued to fly forward, looking for an open space suitable for landing.
In a clearing between mountains, the KC-13 Angel began its slow descent. Its landing gear slowly extended and touched the ground.
Dust was flying, and the plane gradually slowed down as the brakes were applied.
Finally, the KC-13 landed completely in the open space, and the engine sound gradually subsided.
When the two came to the plane, the load bay door slowly opened, and with a loud mechanical sound, the door began to slide downward slowly.
When the door opens, a bright beam of sunlight pours into the cabin, illuminating the load area.
A familiar young man with blond hair and extremely handsome eyes was getting off the plane with a smile. Just as Hansa was about to say something, Dr. William on the side came to the side of the blond young man with a buzz. With unusual enthusiasm, he stretched out his hands to hold the other person's right hand and shook it up and down.
"Your Excellency Abraham, I have been waiting so hard for the creature you promised me before..."
"I know, I will take it with you."
Xia Xiu took out his right hand that was held by Dr. William with some disgust, and then casually took out six capsules with red top and white bottom from the phase space of [Mobius Belt].
"These are six native creatures that I have chosen that have commercial value. They are all super-sensory creatures. Due to the light characteristics of the inner earth world, many creatures have evolved beyond conventional senses. For example, they have super ultrasonic positioning capabilities. The [Echoing Bat] can fly freely even in the darkest places, and the [Heat-quenching Snake] can sense the slight temperature difference in the surrounding environment and hunt its prey based on this information."
He put himself. Touching in the inner earth world..., well, the creatures collected during work were thrown to the enthusiastic Dr. William.
"They are all good things. If they can be cultivated properly, all investigators at the University of Michigan can be equipped with one in the future, which will greatly reduce the casualty rate of teachers and students!" Dr. William said something excitedly The words did not sound good, "Then I wish you success in your cultivation, but you must sign a technology sharing contract with the Honkai Authority first. This is not free, and your research results must be shared with the Kingdom of Heaven in real time. ”
Xia Xiu expressed his blessing to Dr. William, and by the way, he shared the overlord contract drawn up by [Adam] with Dr. William through the genealogy network. At this moment, he was carried away by the enthusiasm for research. After a brief glance, Dr. William signed the contract enthusiastically.
After Xia Xiu saw Dr. William sign the contract, he nodded with satisfaction.
Most of this contract is normal, and he is not a devil after all. Therefore, he only put forward Party A's demands for overtime, free technical overtime, and related service requirements in the contract, which amounted to a little over 100 million.
After successfully adding a new social animal to this beautiful land, Xia Xiu happily followed Hansa who indicated that he needed to speak further.
Hansa led Xia Xiu toward an area jointly controlled by the [Executive Officer] of the Administration and the local angel team stationed there.
This area is surrounded by bright yellow signs and fences for warning and control.
On the sign with yellow and black stripes, the words "Quarantine Area (High Pollution Source), No Entry" are clearly marked.
The internal environment is tightly controlled, with dedicated entrances and checkpoints nearby, overseen by medical and security staff wearing personal protective equipment including masks, gloves and gowns to minimize risk Small potential risk.
After Hansa showed his ID, he took Xia Xiu and continued walking inside. Neither of them wore protective equipment.
The former opens the [Wall of Sighs], while the latter is simply unnecessary. The Crowned One itself is a high-risk source of infection.
“The [Ancient Samples] you transported from the inner world some time ago are all stored here. Because of the high contamination and Meme virus on them, Eden has approved a batch of resources to be used in The area will be sheltered on-site, and we will build a new shelter here to house them." Hansa reported the situation to the fourth sword-bearer of the Kingdom of Heaven.
"Well, this is the best. After all, there is a core sun below. Rebuilding a containment site here can also cover up the existence of the core sun, so as not to attract some unnecessary 'mosquitoes' to come here to collect the news. , By the way, the confidentiality agreement has been signed, right?" Xia Xiu nodded first and then asked.
“All members have signed confidentiality agreements, including the University of Michigan expedition team.”
“This is the best.”
Xia Xiu’s thoughts on Hanseatic I am very satisfied with the handling. With the Kingdom of Heaven on my back, if some trivial matters can be solved with trenches, just trench them. Heaven itself is synonymous with trenches.
The two chatted, and soon Hansa led Xia Xiu to the destination of his trip, a storage room specially used to store the bodies excavated from the collapsed inner earth world.
"We have excavated the handover item you requested. The damage to it is quite serious, and the machine soul inside is on the verge of being broken. If we want to repair it, we can only go to the Gear Orthodoxy's [Large Industrial Church]." Hansa pointed. A humanoid machine lying in the storage room said to the blond young man.
"Well, I understand. You can go about your business first. Just leave this machine to me." Xia Xiu nodded and then replied.
"Then I won't disturb you." Hansa bowed and wisely exited the storage room.
When Xia Xiu was the only one left in the storage room, he slowly turned his gaze to the mechanical prosthetic body lying flat.
The brass humanoid robot lay quietly on a metal plate. The eighty percent degree of fragmentation all over his body made him look extremely haggard.
Every component bore signs of battle - dented steel plates, missing screws, parts that had clearly been forcibly welded back together.
"The surviving structure of the ancient city-state, I hope you will not disappoint me." Xia Xiu looked down at the brass machine, and then raised his right hand.
『Authority Relic·Broken Fire——』
Pfft~
Xia Xiu’s right hand is now controlled by an extraordinary power, burning with a strange The flame is a fire composed of countless square data. Each square seems to contain a special power, and it is constantly flickering and beating, as if it is in constant dialogue, interpreting the invisible information between each other.
[The fire source is activated——]
[Connecting to the Mars lineage network*&&**Puff~]
[Unauthorized personnel! ! ! 】
【Recognition failed: electronic channel·closed! 】
"Sure enough, the authority of the Machine God is not so easy to steal. There is also a think tank [McCaan] on Mars, so the [electronic channel] of the source of the Machine God will not be easily opened for me." Xia Xiu murmured in a low voice.
Three days ago, when he started to devour the fire, he could vaguely feel the roar of dragons coming from the distant Mars. It was [McCaan] of the Gear Orthodox think tank residing on Mars. 】 roar, it is warning the fourth sword holder in heaven.
It was precisely because of the existence of [McCann] that it took him three days to completely swallow the fire.
【Broken fire source detected! 】
【Yes/No to start repair——】
At this moment, the feedback from Data Fire broke Xia Xiu's contemplation. Faced with the options, of course he chose yes, he came. The purpose here is to repair this machine.
Xia Xiu directed the flame made of data towards the ancient brass machinery.
The flame gently caressed the almost dilapidated body. It moved through every crack and gap, seeming to give it warmth and listen to its past. Each data cube is like a small life, penetrating into every cell of the machine, conveying an ancient and mysterious power.
The flow of data is like the water of life. Those ancient and silent gears, cables, and parts seem to feel the breath of the future and begin to wake up under the burning of data. Those mechanical parts that had been dormant for a long time began to operate slowly under this mysterious power. The rusty surfaces began to become smooth under the moisture of the fire of data. The broken parts were reshaped in an incredible way, as if time was flowing backwards. , bringing this brass machine back to its former heyday.
The spiritual light within the brass machine began to flicker, and those parts that had been silent for a long time in the brokenness and silence seemed to be reborn, gaining the same incredible energy as this blond young man. A harmonious sound woven by machinery and data echoes in this dilapidated place. It is not only a kind of recovery, but also a dialogue that transcends time and space.
