Zero Elent Center, Central Control Room.
The air seed to be steeped in a strange aura; when that beautiful chanical head called out Lin Xian’s na, not only Lin Xian but also Ning Jing and others felt their hairs stand on end.
Woo~
In an extrely short period, Lin Xian’s two drones had already circled the entire circular central control room. Under the electronic scanning, they found no sign of any living person, except for Lin Xian’s team of seven.
The surveillance hall was devoid of people, with all terminal devices operating autonomously.
"Lin Xian, how does she know you?" Kiki imdiately spoke.
"I’m not sure..." Lin Xian frowned, his eyes fixed on the chanical head above, filled with doubt. Out of caution, he instinctively prepared to use his chanical superpower to investigate.
"I advise you not to engage in physical or superpower attacks on . If the Intelligent Brain malfunctions, I will be unable to operate the Zero Elent Center systems and will also be unable to communicate amicably with you."
Grace focused her gaze on Lin Xian, and her words made Lin Xian’s expression change slightly. He imdiately halted the chanical coverage action and instead spoke.
"Then please answer , who are you, and what is this place?"
"I am the offline version of Deep Red No. 3 Intelligent Brain at Yijin Zero Elent Center. You can call Grace. I am responsible for safeguarding all 1,623 Deep Red mbers of the Zero Elent Center. Currently, all defense weapons of the system are offline, activating my fourth basic protocol, naly to protect all Deep Red mbers. Accordingly, I formally initiate negotiations with you." At this ti, the Intelligent Brain spoke.
"Negotiations?" Lin Xian looked at this robot Intelligent Brain, which looked almost identical to the woman nad Chu Yan in his dream, and forcibly suppressed his doubts, directly addressing the key point. "What do you want to negotiate with us?"
"According to the protocol content, I can offer you, including but not limited to, (1) mber survival resources from the ever-ready warehouse of Zero Elent Center, (2) 1,000 sets of Interstellar level III individual weapon sets from the weapon equipnt warehouse, (3) Safe evacuation routes."
"Additionally, I must inform you that this Zero Elent Center does not contain any content strongly related to survivors, and damaging the Zero Elent Hive Cave or killing Deep Red mbers will not benefit you in any way."
"It seems this is a machine housekeeper," Ding Junyi said at this point. "I sensed a considerable amount of human heat sources in the curtain wall at the back."
"Hey, really, Lin Xian, look!"
Upon hearing this, Kiki imdiately flew into the air, her gaze towards below the curtain wall, imdiately exclaiming in surprise.
Lin Xian glanced at the Intelligent Brain above, then imdiately headed towards the transparent spherical do. Upon approaching, he discovered that beneath this do was a vertically downward massive deep pit!
The edge of this pit was lined with countless elliptical survival pods, embedded within hexagonal honeycomb grids, resembling a large underground storage pit. On closer inspection, each survival pod contained a person!
All the survival pods had blinking blue lights. Looking around, this gigantic pit contained over a thousand survival pods, aning over a thousand people were lying within this upright honeycomb pit. anwhile, nurous flying robots and a large suspended robotic arm were working systematically, resembling certain dical managent robots, constantly checking the status of various survival pods, providing care.
"This... what is this? Hibernation pods??" The team followed him, and at this point Luo Yang exclaid in amazent.
This astonishingly sci-fi underground facility made everyone unable to resist changing their expressions.
"Is everyone from this organization lying here?" Ning Jing also frowned.
"Perhaps they are trying to avoid hardships," Lu Xingchen said uncharacteristically. "Sleeping for a century could be an option."
"A hundred years?" Kiki crossed her arms, looking at the unfathomably deep hive pit below. "In this Extre Night, dark invasion is ubiquitous. Surviving a year is already questionable; how could anyone sleep for a hundred years?"
"That’s right," said Ning Jing. "Could it be that this organization already has a thod to shield against the dark invasion?"
"Maybe all your guesses are wrong."
At this ti, Ding Junyi’s Black Hawk Battle Armor sighting system automatically magnified and scanned the high-tech elliptical survival pods, revealing so clues. She pointed at the survival pod closest below and said.
"Look, besides sensors on those people’s heads, there are also white mycelium."
"Mycelium? Are these people all dead?"
"In terms of biological definition, the Deep Red mbers here are not dead." The voice of ’Intelligent Brain’ Grace sounded behind everyone.
Swoosh~
At this mont, the head above slowly descended while a power chamber below seed to rise up. A silver-black robotic body with a perfect female curve was supported on the stand. Subsequently, the head and body connected, and the cables started to detach behind the head. ’She’ stood on tiptoe, resembling an elegant ballet dancer.
Click, click.
Grace walked in front of several people with steps comparable to human coordination, with an emotionless face from the holographic image saying,
"They are in an eternal living state, a survival continuation plan secretly developed based on the mycelium characteristics by the Deep Red World."
"This mycelium surviving amid the Extre Night tide is nad Star Abyss Fungus by the Deep Red World. Through human experints, it was found that the mycelium would indeed invade the human body, causing organism tissue to beco plant-like fibers but would not invade the brain. Instead, it releases a special substance, transferring human consciousness via the mycelium network to form a brain domain network."
