Chapter 51: The Key

Even if he was hiding in a sturdy bunker, Twilight could feel the power of the thunder and lightning behind him, and the entire top of the tower was illuminated, and the sound of electricity was incessant, forming a unique symphony with the sound of the storm.

It wasn't until he was sure that there would be no danger that Twilight was able to relax and think about the current situation.

It turns out that the so-called Thor is such a thing, and the last step to unlock this lock is so exciting and dangerous, it is really unimaginable that there will be such a large internal space in the place where the key was inserted before, and the arrangement of the mechanism in it is not known how to leave such a large security hole, which is simply incredible.

But fortunately, he would not have survived in such an environment, and it was impossible to escape from this place before the lightning struck, this was the top of the tower one hundred and seventy meters high, and the stone stairs downstairs were also full of rain.

And it's also important to note that the timing of the rain was really clever, and it started to rain and thunder just as Twilight got all the keys and was about to open the lock.

According to what he has seen and heard on this planet during this time, he estimates that it will take a long time for this planet to have such a thunderstorm, but if thunder and lightning are required to open that lock, it is undoubtedly a very timing-based thing, after all, who can say what the weather will be like in the next year?

So if there is no weather, you can't open the lock, you can't take out the things inside, you shouldn't be able to turn off the defense of this planet, so if you want to leave this planet, it will naturally become a luxury, although the apostle who came may be able to fly out of the planet by his own strength if he can pick up the rags and make rockets by himself, but God knows if the defense system of this planet will attack what flies out of the planet.

He guessed that this timing may have been grasped by the main god, who guessed the next weather on the planet, and then picked a time to send him over, after all, the main god will not issue tasks that cannot be completed, isn't it a recognized fact, although the task of the main god here is an additional reward, but since it is a reward, it must be able to be obtained, otherwise it is not called a reward, it is called a bait.

Twilight waited silently in the safety cave, until nearly a minute later, the thunder died down, and the light on the top of the tower faded and became dim, only the occasional flash of lightning in the sky would bring a glimmer of light to the gloomy sky.

Although the movement at the top of the tower had disappeared, Twilight continued to wait in the safety cave for a while before exiting, and he couldn't be sure if the mechanism had retracted the lightning rod after completing the necessary steps, or if the thunder and lightning in the sky hadn't struck nearby and was not attracted to it.

After climbing out of the safety wall, Twilight Star stood in the rain again, and there seemed to be a faint electricity in the air around him, and the cylinder in the center of the top of the tower had indeed taken back the lightning rod used to guide the lightning, and in the place where the lightning rod was originally extended, there was a square sign with glowing green lines on the surface.

Seeing this, Twilight instantly understood that this was what those ancient people took out of that mysterious base in that mural, and it should also be the key to enter and exit that base.

Twilight stepped forward and stretched out his hands to try to pick it up, this thing was extremely heavy, but it was easy for Twilight, but his left hand, which had not yet healed, felt a little strained, and once he used his strength, he couldn't help but feel pain.

He held the sign in both hands and looked at it carefully, this was the first time he was so close to the creation of that mysterious civilization, he had encountered a water bottle with the same casting style before, but the bottle was in the middle of the reservoir, so he couldn't get close at all, and could only look at it from a distance.

Twilight put the object back on the cylindrical platform, and stretched out the fingers of his right hand to gently touch the dark green lines, but found nothing, and even the lines and the surrounding materials were completely smooth planes, making him almost think that the lines were just painted with paint, but he would never think of it after spending the night next to the reservoir, because that night, it was these lines that emitted a ghostly light that completely illuminated the entire reservoir, making it look like a ghost land.

He guessed that the lines that constantly emitted a glowing glow might have something to do with their energy source, after all, the beam of light that destroyed the rescue ship launched from the base was dark green, exactly the same color as these lines, and he had reason to believe that the intelligent life of that civilization should definitely not have given these items such an appearance just because of idle boredom.

However, conjecture can only be conjecture, for Twilight, these things are really beyond the scope of his understanding, not within the scope of his knowledge, so he can't understand it at all, and that's exactly what happened, after looking through it repeatedly, he couldn't see what was so special about this thing, so he had to put it in the storage space and wait for the base to see the situation.

As for what this thing does, Twilight Star can only rely on subjective guesswork to determine what it can do, which makes him a little frustrated, after all, he has put in so much effort to get this thing, but now that the thing is in hand, his efforts are not in vain.

Now the last remaining steps are probably to rely on this suspected key item to enter the base as soon as possible, then find a way to turn off the planet's planetary defense system, and finally use the communicator to send a distress signal, and then call a rescue ship to pick you up, and then leave the planet in the spaceship, and everything is successfully completed.

The idea is very good, but whether it can be realized is still up for debate, after all, it is not long before the end of the survival mission released by the main god, and God knows if this time is enough to call the rescue spacecraft.

But the first priority now should be on that base, and I don't know if this thing is the key or not, after all, everything is still unknown, and how to turn off the planetary defense system when the time comes?

That kind of thing should be a very tightly guarded thing just by thinking about it, after all, if you design a defense system by yourself, you will definitely have seventy or eighty locks, so that people other than yourself can't touch it at all, only in this way is the safest.

Twilight got his things and rested against the wall in the hall of the tower, he felt very uncomfortable after many days of traveling in the rain, and he couldn't find shelter every day when it was dark, which made it inevitable that he would sleep in the wilderness, and the weather was so bad that he had to rest and adjust himself before heading to the base.
