Chapter 433 Vitruvian Man (Vitruvian Man)
In the darkness of the deep sea, huge monsters that look like a combination of octopus and starfish are swimming towards the ship quickly, like arrows leaving the string. Generally fast and fierce, its huge body looks particularly threatening underwater.
Soon, the first one approached the ship. It stretched out its tentacles and tried to wrap them around the ship. Its tentacles were long and flexible, covered with suckers and sharp tentacles.
They stretch out in the water, as if looking for prey, and their eyes are cold and full of malice, flashing with a heart-stopping light, revealing an ominous aura, and it stretches out its terrifying tentacles Trying to break up the ship.
Just when the tentacles of this terrifying creature were about to touch the ship, the appearance of [Nautilus] was suddenly covered with a layer of mysterious flames.
"Broken Fire·Structure——"
"Armed Template [Beast]·Octopus-Mechanical Flurry! 』
The flames composed of countless overlapping azure color blocks covered the entire [Nautilus].
These color blocks are burning on the seabed, emitting a shocking light, like the exotic light in the deep sea.
With the appearance of these flames, the surface of the ship began to emit a strange mechanical deformation sound.
The sound was deep and powerful, seeming to indicate that some powerful force was awakening.
锵锵锵——
With the sound of mechanical sounds, steampunk-style mechanical arms are instantly generated from the surface of the ship. Each section of these mechanical arms is made of fine Made of copper and steel, the surface is engraved with complex gears and detailed decorations, shining with the brilliance of the industrial age. The arms are covered with pipes and steam nozzles, and when they move, steam can be seen spraying out of these tiny nozzles, accompanied by a slight hissing sound.
When the first giant sea monster approaches, these robotic arms spring into action.
They rush forward with incredible speed and strength, grabbing the monster's tentacles tightly.
Click——
Every joint of the mechanical arm operates flexibly, and the powerful force allows them to easily tear the monster's tentacles into pieces.
The sea water was dyed blood red, which was the blood flowing out of the monster's body. The blood-colored liquid spread in the seawater, forming a disturbing red cloud. The octopus monster's body was torn apart, its organs and limbs drifting in the deep sea.
The muscles and internal organs are exposed to the sea water, it is a primitive and savage sight.
Puff——
The copper arm made a metallic friction sound during the tearing process, accompanied by the smell of steam and grease.
As the first monster was defeated, other approaching monsters also rushed towards it.
The robotic arms responded quickly, waving their arm joints as if a group of warriors were engaged in a fierce battle underwater.
The movement of these arms is smooth and powerful, with every strike and swing hitting the target accurately.
[Nautilus]'s interior cockpit.
A virtual control keyboard appeared in front of Xia Xiu. This keyboard was used by him to control the "Magic Modified Version of Doctor Octopus' Robotic Arm". At this moment, his hands were tapping crazily on the keyboard.
For a better "game experience", he also specially opened the [Triple Crown] and attached a few small plug-ins to the mechanical arm.
Pap-pap-pap-pap-
[↓→P] then [→↓→P] then [←↓→↑P].
The hands of the blond young man were frantically tapping the control buttons he had constructed.
The mechanical arm outside the ship was punching the starfish monsters like a small Karami.
The bodies of these poor monsters were broken in an extremely brutal way and floated powerlessly in the water. The once cold and malicious octopus heads have now lost their luster, leaving only endless holes. and dead silence.
The surrounding seawater is filled with a rust-like smell, which is the smell produced by mixing blood and seawater.
It’s so cruel!
[Nautilus] Bazin in the other cabin stared at this scene dumbfounded. This kind of one-sided and unparalleled massacre is really difficult for people to take their eyes away.
嚓——
[Positioning has been completed——]
[Start jumping——]
When the robotic arm with incredible power and precision, like tearing After tearing the monster approaching it in half like a thin piece of paper, the [Nautilus] also completed its initial preparations.
The turbid water finally completely enveloped [Nautilus].
Subtle ripples began to appear in the surrounding deep sea, and the water seemed to be stirred up by some invisible force, forming layers of waves. These waves are not ordinary water waves, but like fluctuations between dimensions, indicating the upcoming cross-border travel.
In this strange ocean turmoil, the dark blue dimensional gap gradually expanded, as if opening the door to another world.
[Nautilus] slowly moved towards this gap, and with every vibration of the ship, the surrounding water seemed to be making way for it.
Finally, in a moment that seemed eternal yet instantaneous, the ship completely penetrated into the deep blue dimensional gap.
With a slight swish sound, [Nautilus] completely disappeared into the darkness of the deep sea, leaving only a faint ripple of water.
The monsters that followed one after another could only watch this scene with unwillingness and confusion in their eyes, and they let out shrill screams full of madness to vent their dissatisfaction.
“Squeak!!!!”
*********
In the dark blue dimension gap, [Nautilus] is rapidly moving It dived, and drastic changes took place inside it.
The entire ship seemed to be tightly held by an invisible force. As the jump started, it began to experience an unprecedented shock.
Inside the ship, the lights in the control room flickered amid violent shaking, accompanied by the hissing and roaring sounds of mechanical devices and electronic instruments. Every metal plate on the ship seemed to be protesting against the sudden change, creaking. A rattling sound.
The mechanical arm in the ship was still busy operating despite the violent shaking, trying to maintain the stability of the ship.
In the process of jumping, the scene around [Nautilus] becomes blurred and distorted, as if reality itself is being stretched and reshaped.
The scene displayed by the external observation window is a chaotic color and light, like traveling through an unknown time and space tunnel.
Boom——
With a low roar, [Nautilus] swayed and ran aground on the surface of a lake.
Originally, it was surrounded by a tranquil and mysterious natural landscape, with mountains surrounding this quiet body of water. The lake surface was like a mirror, reflecting the blue of the sky and the surrounding green.
The arrival of [Nautilus] broke the tranquility of the lake, causing circles of tiny ripples. [You have reached the special point No. 2310-1——]
[The cave wall is detected——]
[There are obvious holes in the wall——]
< br>
[[Cave Fable Meme] detected——]
[There are obvious loopholes in Meme group pollution——]
[Nautilus Global Agent·Start Search——]
< br>[Agent node not detected——]
[The Anle Angel Project pollution project has flaws and there is no need to enter the observer stage——]
[Start to open the hatch——]
Puff——
With a low and heavy “puff” sound, the steam valve on the ship was Slowly push it open, releasing a white cloud of steam. As the steam dissipated, the young man with blond hair and golden eyes climbed out from the inside of the ship. His figure looked particularly handsome in the sunlight.
“Another perfect vehicle experience!”
The blond young man stood on the deck of the ship and sighed. Then, he looked around, his golden eyes shining with curiosity and exploration of this unknown world.
His hair fluttered slightly in the breeze, and his golden eyes reflected the luster of the lake, looking deep and brilliant.
He took a deep breath of fresh air and felt the natural atmosphere here that was different from Callisto.
“Hoo~”
Xia Xiu raised his hand and put it in front of his forehead. The shadow formed by blocking the sunlight on his palm shrouded his eyes. He finally looked at the "sun" above his head. ".
The sun above is false. It is a simulated sun projected through [etheric projection method].
This method is the projection method commonly used in Terra’s local hubs. As long as you know the coordinates of the sun in the [Ether Ocean], you can use this to perform ether projection.
[According to spectral analysis, the sun above is the projection of the main world of Terra——]
[Adam]'s voice sounded in Xia Xiu's mind at the right time.
“This is still Callisto.”
[Yes, this is still Callisto. You can understand the area you are in now as the local hub of Callisto or the existence of ancillary planes, phase spaces and the like——]
“This place The hub does not look like a natural formation, nor does it look like a civilized lunar surface that was attracted by the three laws of thaumaturgy and hung on the planet."
Xia Xiu jumped off the [Nautilus]. , the EVE particles began to circulate under his feet, and a common [water walking] thaumaturgy was instantly constructed, and he stepped on the water as if walking on flat ground.
The lake is surrounded by various peculiar natural phenomena. For example, the reflectivity of the water in some depressions in the ground changes, making them visually blend with the surrounding land.
“This is a man-made hub. According to [Nautilus], this was once the first phase of the Angel of Ease project, but judging from the situation, the [Allegory of the Cave] here has been destroyed.”
Xia Xiu walked on the lake, and his eyes couldn't help but look at a huge door on the shore that had the modern architectural aesthetics of Terra.
Puff——
Just as Xia Xiu stepped towards the huge door, another steam valve on the [Nautilus] was also opened.
Bazin, who looked slightly pale, climbed out of the [Nautilus]. It could be seen that he seemed to be a little dizzy from the jump.
After Bazan came out of the ship, he quickly noticed Xia Xiu, so he adjusted his breathing, and then imitated Xia Xiu and put a [water walking] on himself Thaumaturgy.
Then he quickly stepped in front of the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven.
"You look a little bad. The deep-sea hunter is still seasick. You shouldn't be." Xia Xiu said to Bazin, who was chasing after him.
Xia Xiu's words made Bazan's eyes twitch unconsciously, and he could only reply.
"Haha."
At the same time, he couldn't help but start to curse in his heart.
What do you mean you shouldn't? No one can sail a boat like you and risk your life!
Thanks to the [Nautilus]'s frame being strong enough and durable, if this guy had to deal with an ordinary ship, it would be turned into scrap within a few minutes.
Even if it is not scrapped, I am afraid it will be transformed into weird machines by this guy. Ice Walker and Nautilus are living examples.
"Now that you are out, just in time, I would like to ask, you should be familiar with the things on the door in front, right?" Xia Xiu pointed with his index finger at the picture on the door in front.
Hearing this, Bazan subconsciously looked in the direction pointed by the other person towards the thing he had ignored earlier. When he saw that thing, he understood why Xia Xiu said that he would be very interested in that thing. Familiar.
On the shore of the lake, there is a huge door with a sketch of a naked body carved on it.
This detailed sketch depicts an idealized male nude cleverly embedded in two overlapping geometric shapes - a circle and a square. The man's limbs are opened and closed, presented in two positions, as if the perfect proportions of the body were captured simultaneously through two different sets of movements.
His wingspan and height appear to be equal, creating a symmetrical sum.
The center point of the body is the navel, which is exactly the center of the circle, while the genitals are located in the center of the square.
The man in the sketch has shaggy hair and exquisite and detailed features. From the outline of the face to the depiction of eyes, nose and lips, the artist's deep understanding of human anatomy is revealed.
The lines of his limbs are smooth, and his muscles are sculpted with a sense of strength and elegance.
“Anti-Micro Painting·Vitruvian Man.” Bazin read out the name of the painting unconsciously.
[Vitruvian Man], this thing is the anti-mimic lock of the Iberian Academy of Sciences and artificial islands. Its function is to prevent Iberian science, technology and thaumaturgy knowledge from leaking to the outside world. .
“It seems that the person who sent the coordinates to the artificial island and led us here is indeed Pedro Miguelset.”
Xia Xiu was still surprised. Bazin came to the painting in a state of disbelief. The work in front of him expressed the ideal aesthetics of human body proportions and also hinted at the geometric nature of the order of nature and the universe.
Bazin's eyes fell on the main body of the painting involuntarily, while Xia Xiu's eyes fell on the series of numbers beside the door and the number lock in the middle of the door.
There are 7 slots on the digital lock: 32■■■■0
Four of the slots are empty, and there is a miniature [3] marked on the side. There is no doubt that , which means that the digital lock only has three trial and error opportunities.
There are many numbers carved on the door, and these numbers are stuck and have no rules at all.
Xia Xiu's golden eyes quickly picked out ten different sets of numbers from the numbers, and quickly summarized the rules of the numbers in his mind.
Soon, he found a pattern.
He picked out one of the ten sets of numbers: 1210.
In this number, "1" appears 2 times (look at the number 2 displayed in the 1st digit).
"2" appears once (look at the number 1 displayed in the second digit).
And "0" appears once (in the 0 position).
So, the number 1210 is like saying: "I have 1 0, 2 1s, 1 2, and 0 3s."
