Chapter 510: Dark!
Bang!
The motion thruster on the "Dragon Girl" burst into flames instantly. The powerful thrust left an afterimage of her figure in place. The humming of the VK electric blade tearing the air suddenly sharpened. Two intersecting azure electric lights flashed and disappeared. The monster didn't even have time to hiss, and viscous dark brown liquid sprayed wildly from the torso section that had been precisely cut. The hideous head rolled to the ground, and the glowing silk tentacles in the compound eyes extinguished rapidly.
Looking at this scene, Lin Xian immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Can it be killed? It seems I took it too seriously..."
However, before the blood wave on the "Dragon Girl"'s electric knife could drip down, in the viscous darkness, a faster shadow pounced silently along the ceiling! Another one, the dark energy scanner didn't find it. In an instant, dozens of glowing silk tentacles, like living poisonous snakes, precisely entangled the right arm joint of the "Dragon Girl" that had just completed the slash and had not yet retracted. A strong energy interference pulse surged in along the silk tentacles. In the piercing short-circuit explosion, the hydraulic pipe of the right elbow exploded into a cloud of oil mist, electric sparks jumped wildly, the entire arm hung down softly instantly, and the light of the VK electric blade dimmed completely.
"Disconnect the link! Cut off the arm!" The sudden change caught Lin Xian off guard, but he also immediately made a decisive response.
That monster seemed to be able to swallow energy integration. That looked like physical material dissolution power, which was more terrifying than corrosion.
Without any hesitation, as soon as Lin Xian's order was conveyed, the VK electric blade on the "Dragon Girl"'s left arm turned back, and the cold blue light precisely swept across her right shoulder joint. Swish! Sparks and broken cables burst out, and the heavy metal right arm, along with the glowing silk tentacles wrapped around it, fell to the ground together.
Almost at the same time the broken arm fell to the ground, the "Dragon Girl"'s only remaining left arm raised like lightning. The armor on the palm slid open, revealing the nozzle inside that was rapidly charging and emitting a sun-like blinding white incandescent light. The next second, three silver plasma beams shot out violently, instantly pinning the monster precisely to the wall. There was no explosion, only blinding white light and heart-aching burning and gasification sounds. The monster was burned silently in the pure energy torrent, leaving only a scorched black mark on the ground and a pungent smell of ozone.
At this time, Lin Xian immediately flew in all the dozen micro-drones he had prepared in advance. The lights shone brightly, and he quickly checked the entire warehouse area. After confirming that there were no other living creatures, he finally breathed a real sigh of relief.
In the shelter room, Lin Xian looked at the arm that had turned into a piece of gray metal residue on the ground in front of the Dragon Girl through the holographic vision, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
That was close!
Fortunately, Lin Xian had robots to probe. It was simple for him to repair an arm. This monster was not considered powerful, and the Dragon Girl could solve it with one knife, but the ability of the silk tentacles really gave Lin Xian a headache. It looked like once it was touched, even interstellar-level power armor couldn't resist it? Wouldn't that be life-threatening?
Lin Xian's mood was complex. At this time, while thinking, he let the drones and the Dragon Girl conduct a comprehensive exploration in the warehouse. Just at this time, he discovered some clues from the footage.
This material cabin section actually had a reserve energy system that was supplying power at low energy consumption!
In the footage, the drone found an opened functional pipeline, which was directly connected to a small extreme energy capacitor system in another cabin. And the two bizarre monsters just now seemed to be swallowing this, and it looked like the power here had been cut off for several hours.
"Swallowing energy... human electric energy and dark energy are common?"
Sizzle~
At this time, the Dragon Girl mecha remotely opened the door of the material cabin. As soon as it opened, a white cold air mixed with a faint scarlet air sprayed out in the footage. Lin Xian looked at this scene, moved, and immediately let all the drones fly in. And this time, he quickly discovered that although many of the supplies inside had begun to rot as before, the degree of rot was completely different from before, and some were even relatively fresh, which looked like they could still be eaten...
But it was limited to canned food and those pure waters that didn't look deteriorated. Other fresh food or ordinary food in the refrigerator had completely molded. That kind of mold had nothing to do with the refrigerator. The drone could even detect that the temperature in the refrigerator was not too high, indicating that the power cut here was indeed not long, but the food had already molded in a short time, which must be related to the scarlet air just now.
At this time, Lin Xian suddenly realized a problem, that is, this material cabin section might have a technology that could independently keep food from rotting, and it was only after the power was cut off that it was rotted by the scarlet!
"Definitely like this!"
Lin Xian stood up immediately, and even his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate. If his guess was correct, it meant that the Phoenix Society already had a method to preserve food and deal with survival in the scarlet, and it also meant that the Phoenix Society was very likely still in existence!
"Humanity has not perished!"
Lin Xian's tone was a bit trembling. He put on his power armor and directly followed the original path to touch the material cabin section. While transporting the supplies back, he had to find the instrument or device that stored the supplies, complete the scan, and then manufacture it. Otherwise, these supplies might not be able to be stored tonight, and he would only be happy for nothing.
Lin Xian's movements were swift, without any extra movements. Soon he arrived in the cabin, and then directly sent dozens of transport drones to start transporting the supplies he wanted according to the requirements. Then Lin Xian began to unfold mechanical scanning of the entire cabin.
With Lin Xian's experience, he soon found an independent device laid by multiple pipelines in the mechanical structure of the entire storage cabin. This device was obviously modified later, designed separately for the storage cabin section. The most critical thing was that Lin Xian found blood essence on this device!
"Sure enough, it looks like a dark energy generator, some kind of frequency? Isolation?"
While scanning the blueprint, Lin Xian began to swallow things in the material warehouse for material conversion, which was convenient for manufacturing later. At the same time, he began to be surprised by the design above. It looked like an upgrade of the dark energy homologous device. Although he didn't know the principle, based on his understanding of mechanical structure, he soon realized that this was some kind of frequency generator that used dark energy conversion and then manufacturing, which seemed to be able to isolate the scarlet.
"Strange, why not apply this device to the entire starship? But only used for food preservation? Or is this a backup plan..."
"Forget it for now."
It was useless to consider too much at this time. He soon completed the scanning of the blueprint, and then took a level-three blood essence on the device, preparing to return to the shelter room to manufacture a simple version to use first. He didn't have a single blood essence on hand, and since there was one ready-made, he certainly couldn't let it go.
"The blood essences are all with Teacher Chen. Alas, the Phoenix Society's response plan is so fast, I hope everyone is safe and sound."
Returning to the shelter room, Lin Xian didn't say a word and immediately started all manufacturing sequences. In a very short time, he manufactured a "storage warehouse" the size of a small truck carriage. Those resources "rescued" by the drones were all put in by him. After the level-three blood essence and energy capacitor were activated, he was shocked to find that the scarlet air inside was disappearing at an extremely fast speed!
"Immediate effect..."
After doing everything, Lin Xian sat on the stool with a plop, looking at the storage warehouse in front of him with sweat on his head. He didn't dare to delay for a second in this operation, for fear of wasting these hard-won food and water. If so, he would be completely finished tonight.
After catching his breath for a while, Lin Xian got up and walked into his small storage warehouse to open two cans to see the situation. Who knew that as soon as he walked in, the vision in front of him suddenly darkened, and it actually became pitch black!
What's going on!?
Lin Xian looked stunned. He turned his head to look at the room he had lit up, the small door of the storage warehouse was clearly open, but it was pitch black inside, as if he had come to another world. ===== CHAPTER 511 =====
