Chapter 349: 6 Years Ago

Chapter 349: 6 Years Ago

Sure enough, a prompt popped up on his retinas:

Name: Five-Faced Monster Box

Rarity: Grade A

Material: Nickel, Steel, Quintessa Alloy, Mystic Power.

Explanation: This is a strange part passed down from the civilization deep in the universe. Although it is old, there is still a trace of indescribable mysterious power circulating in it.

Passive Ability: When you upgrade your skills while carrying this box, if the skill resonates with the mysterious power in this box, you will get an additional unique option.

Passive Ability: {Mysterious}, items with this attribute can be sold as unknown wonders.

Looking at this description, Fang Linyan couldn’t judge the good and bad of this thing for a while. After all, it depended on the additional unique option it brought. If it really didn’t work, it could be used to exchange merit points.

While Fang Linyan was researching this thing, Goat seemed bored and wandered around,

He walked to the wall beside, looked at the deep fist mark left on it, and immediately thought that this should be left by Koi and the others, so he asked curiously,

“Nimbus, after us, there should be another group of people breaking in, how are they doing now?”

Nimbus was silent for a while, probably judging the secret level of this question and whether it could be disclosed to Fang Linyan and the others, then it said after a while,

“After this group of people broke in, they tried to forcefully break in, but I sent KTS guard maintenance robots to drive them away.”

Goat asked curiously,

“What is the KTS guard maintenance robot?”

Nimbus quickly showed a 3D projection. Fang Linyan understood it at a glance. This thing was a variant of the spider robot, but with a double cannon added to its back.

Moreover, the front parts of the 6 long legs looked like sharp claws, which seemed to be able to tear through skin.

Goat suddenly said suspiciously at this moment,

“The strength of that group of people is quite strong. We were in a dire state when being chased, I think Master Nimbus’s men must have suffered heavy casualties, right?”

Because Nimbus had been affected by the life energy released by Pumesh for many years, it could be regarded as a half-mechanical intelligent creature. It had certain emotions. After hearing this, it said uncomfortably as if its heart was being stabbed,

“How can it be possible to suffer heavy casualties against a weak creature like human beings?”

After finishing speaking, its body immediately shone brightly. Soon another mechanical spider was summoned. This mechanical spider crawled very slowly. There was something similar to a projector on its back.

After it came here, it lay down on the ground. The projector-like thing on its back began to shine. A series of holographic images appeared in this wide space, fully reflecting the situation at that time.

In fact, the situation at that time was not complicated. After Gores, Koi, and Old Black came here, they discussed for a while and planned to break into the door directly.

Gores had a sharp-looking ax in his hand, and he swung and smashed a big hole on the door.

Needless to say, a large number of mechanical combat spiders appeared next.

In close combat, the claws of this creature were as sharp as a sword, and it also had ranged attack from the self-aiming laser cannon on the back.

People often said one trick pony. This mechanical combat spider only had 2 moves back and forth, but it put the 3 of them into an extremely difficult situation in a short period of time.

Just because this creature not only had a very strong ranged attack and melee attack, but it also had an amazing crawling speed. It could also jump. Even crazier, it could launch attacks from wall and ceiling.

Fang Linyan would be dazzled by such an all-direction attack, let alone the 3 people being attacked.

At this time, both Fang Linyan and Goat knew that this was the best time to understand the strength of Koi and others, so they kept calling pause, rewind and so on.

Occasionally, after calling a pause, they would discuss the battle situation fiercely.

To be honest, if anyone was watching now, he would wonder whether these two people were watching martial arts tutorials or X-rated videos for being so passionate…

Nimbus stayed by the side, thinking that these weak carbon-based creatures were boring. But considering that the guy named Wrench was still useful and Master Pumesh might need him later, it didn’t drive them away rudely.

For Nimbus, the combat power of this mechanical projection spider was scum. Its only use was to save and play the records of this peripheral area.

So after thinking about it, Nimbus simply unlocked some of the authority of this mechanical projection spider for them. They could do whatever they wanted with this mechanical projection spider.

It simply returned to the hub to observe its master’s situation, because among the highest procedural rules of Nimbus, the first rule was to put the master’s safety first.

The battle lasted less than 10 minutes. In the end, Koi was directly put into the dying state. Gores used an item with a painful face. Judging from the sound and light effects of the item, it must be quite expensive.

After Old Black sacrificed his staff and summoned more than a dozen skeletons, the three of them finally escaped like bereaved dogs in panic.

Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan’s heart moved. Isn’t this the time to steal the kill?

It was a pity that when he looked at the holographic image, it was two and a half hours since Koi and the others retreated. The main reason was that Fang Linyan had delayed a lot of time when repairing Pumesh’s body. What kill could he still steal!

After sighing regretfully, Fang Linyan suddenly realized that Nimbus had disappeared, and the projecting mechanical spider was still crouching here.

He was about to tell Goat to leave, but looking back at the projecting mechanical spider, Fang Linyan’s eyes lit up as he said thoughtfully,

“Hey, B-9, do you have anything else besides the hologram you just played?”

The mechanical projection spider said in a mechanical electronic voice,

“Human, I am responsible for keeping all the video data in this peripheral area.”

Fang Linyan took a breath and said,

“All? Do you mean from the time Master Pumesh landed until now?”

The mechanical projection spider said very positively,

“Yes.”

Fang Linyan said,

“Then, do I have permission to read these materials?”

The mechanical projection spider said stiffly,

“Master Nimbus granted you temporary permission 26 minutes and 19 seconds ago. Yes, you have the permission to read it.”

Fang Linyan smiled and said,

“Very well, 6 or 7 years ago, a group of humans broke into this place, then they opened the Five-Faced Monster Box, right?”

Mechanical projection spider said,

“Please wait a moment. Inquiring… Yes, according to records, a total of 8 carbon-based creatures broke into this place 6 years, 193 days, 7 hours, 56 minutes and 9 seconds ago. Because Master Nimbus was asleep for maintenance at the time, they opened the Five-Faced Monster Box.”

Fang Linyan snapped his fingers and said,

“Very good. Play all the videos at that time.”

The mechanical projection spider said,

“Please wait…….”

***

5 minutes later, the light shone brightly. The events of more than 6 years ago began to truly replay in front of Fang Linyan and Goat.

In the beginning, it was still this empty space station hall.

Suddenly, a series of unpleasant buzzing sounds came from the entrance of the hall, then a lot of sparks appeared from the closed door, then the flames ejected from the cutting machine appeared from above.

This cutting machine was used by Fang Linyan on the Russian space station before.

Then a big hole was cut open on the closed door, and an exploration robot was sent in. After the various analysis results were sent out, a guy who should be of the lowest status came in to explore the way.

Needless to say, this guy should be a cannon fodder or something.

It could be seen that the Scarlet Umbrella must have suffered a lot from exploring here, so this guy stayed inside for 20 minutes without danger before people came in one after another.

The captain is a bearded European man. There was a beautiful woman with a very good figure, 5 male researchers, and 2 black guards in addition.

They began to conduct research quickly here. Fang Linyan chose to fast-forward until they found the Five-Faced Monster Box, then they began to watch around in amazement.

However, while watching, the beautiful woman seemed a little curious, so she reached out to touch the pattern on it.

As mentioned earlier, the shape of this Five-Faced Monster Box was actually a diamond shape, with a face on one side. Each face had a different expression.

What the woman touched was one of the faces with an angry expression.

As she touched it a few more times, the eyes of that face suddenly glowed red and the face bit her hand.

Not only that, but there was a huge suction force coming from the mouth of this face, which actually pulled her in bit by bit!!

The woman immediately screamed in pain, but it was useless.

Her wrist was devoured at first, but after a dozen seconds, her entire arm was devoured by the mouth!!

Looking at her painful and distorted expression, it was obvious that the swallowed part was suffering some inhumane treatment.

There was a creepy buzzing sound from that mouth.

Needless to say, most of the people rushed over to help. Some started looking for gaps, some started beating around in a panic trying to find a switch, and a guard simply started shooting…

However, the most sensible one was the bearded captain. He shouted “HELP” while resolutely avoiding the other 4 faces. Then he picked up the cutting machine and rushed forward. When he cut the box, there was a splash of spark.

TL: So, that’s how they opened the Pandora’s Box, but where are the rust-eating parasites now?
