Chapter 286: Wind King Cruiser
With the attitude of giving it a try, Midi pressed her hand on the drone.
As the golden-red glow around him continued to grow, the frost on the surface of the drone quickly faded, and soon, the flying saucer was untied.
The drone immediately made a tick-tock start, and several sensors on the shell turned on again, emitting a somewhat unsettling red color, and scanning the surroundings like the eyes of a beast looking for prey.
However, Emile immediately approached.
When Midi firmly fixed the unmanned fighter with both hands, the alchemy master put a huge mechanical arm on his hand, activated the magic power of his body, opened the five fingers of the mechanical arm, and pressed it against the unmanned fighter.
In an instant, several extremely slender but extremely sharp blades radiated from the robotic arm, directly removing a piece of the shell of this unmanned fighter!
Through this gap, Emile's eyes were full of light, and she carefully observed the operation of the magic array inside the fighter plane and the flow of magic power, and then, with the finger of her other hand, shot out a magic power, hitting the magic array inside it with great accuracy.
The next moment, the unmanned fighter let out a crisp humming sound, and the red light on the sensor also instantly transformed, turning into a comfortable green light.
"What did you do?" Wiseman leaned over curiously.
"Shut down its friend or foe identification system. Emile wiped the sweat from her forehead, then replied in an uncertain tone, "Probably succeeded." ”
Hearing the word "probably", Midi and Avril couldn't help but glance at each other and smile at the same time.
For adventurers, there is nothing that is not probable, whether it is successful or not, you will know if you try it.
The four pioneer boats skillfully formed a square array, dragging the unmanned fighter in the net pocket, flying back and forth around the silver-white battleship, and finally, near the belly of the battleship, the unmanned fighter and the battleship reacted, and the green light of the sensors on it quickly contracted from the fan to a thin line, and then connected with a certain place on the battleship's hull.
Under the induction of this thin green line, this battleship, which had been sleeping here tens of thousands of years ago, was finally awakened again.
It let out a low metallic roar, and the entire eighty-meter-long hull trembled slightly.
Then, with the crisp sound of a steel lock opening, countless white steam erupted from the side chord of the ship, making a snorting sound, and in the mist, a door finally slowly opened in front of Midi.
"Avril ......" Midi thought for a moment before turning her gaze to the Dark Elf Assassin.
"No problem, I'll leave half of the people outside. Avril nodded very understandingly.
In the case of only two real adventurers in the team, of course, one is inside and the other is outside, so that no matter what unusual happens on either side, the other side can react quickly. If you take 10,000 steps back, even if you can't rescue it, you can at least avoid the tragic result of total annihilation.
This can be said to be the common sense and consensus of the adventure leader.
As for Avril, although she also hopes to explore the unknown with Midi, the dark elves know very well that just the birds have been sticking to Midi like a human can't win the other party's heart. For a man like Midi, it is necessary to show a posture of being alone in order to impress him.
I'll just stay outside and guard your back for you.
Thinking like this, a charming smile appeared on Avril's lips.
"In the unlikely event that this door closes automatically, or that the magical communication between us is cut off, you know what to do. Midi rejected.
"Of course. Avril retracted her smile, nodded seriously, and glanced at her sister beside her, "Emile will ask you." ”
"I'm going to protect her. Midi promised in a serious tone.
The next moment, he landed on the battleship with great lightness.
If this "white swan"-like warship gives people a shocking elegance and beauty just from the outside, then the complex structure and huge space inside it dwarfs today's intelligent races.
In Reinhardt's words, the ship could have been used for a royal ball, and it wouldn't feel cramped at all.
And as the exploration deepened, Midi also identified its identity through various signs and words on the door, on the walls, and in the passages - this was a celestial warship, and there were celestial characters engraved everywhere, without any demonic breath.
It's just that what makes people feel weird is that there is not even a single person in this battleship.
Most of the rooms have open doors, whether it's dormitories, canteens, or gnakus loaded with a large number of drones, or empty arsenals of weapons and materials, or even extraordinarily luxurious captain's cabins, and a huge bridge at the fore......
Not a single one.
And the piles of charts that fell on the ground, the overturned inkwells, the messy footprints and the discarded sophisticated weapons everywhere, and the multiple empty spaces that should have been the location of the lifeboat, said one thing-
In some kind of rushed emergency, the crew of the battleship had to abandon the ship and leave.
Midi and the others searched for a long time on the semicircular open bridge, but unfortunately, all the equipment here had been completely shut down, and no matter how it was started, there was no response.
As for the captain's seat at the top, Midi couldn't find anything resembling the captain's logbook, so there was no clue to judgment.
The only thing that can be considered a gain is a description of the battleship itself on the bridge.
The length of the battleship is eighty-four .63 meters, the wingspan is one hundred and fifty .7 meters, and the type is a cruiser, and its name is -
Wind King.
"Wind King" cruiser!
According to the name of this battleship, combined with the descriptions of various ancient books in the sea of clouds, and the vocabulary habits of the Celestial Realm, Midi quickly judged that this cruiser should be the flagship of the Celestial Realm in this twilight battlefield.
It's no wonder that its size is so huge, and its silhouette is so elegant that it's impossible to fault.
It's just that this kind of information is just icing on the cake for these salvage collectors, but it can't help much.
What Midi needed most now was to understand the ship's damage and find a suitable way to recover it.
After all, the narwhal waiting outside was only sixty-five meters long, and the engines installed in it could not be compared with ancient warships. That kind of propulsion, of course, is no problem for towing ordinary wreckage, if there is a lot of damage inside, but the roughly intact wreckage of the ancient warship is also okay, but if you want to pull this intact "Wind King" cruiser, then I'm afraid it is unlikely.
A way must be found to recover the "Wind King" cruiser quickly and safely.
As the saying goes, there are many dreams in the night, even if Emile is the only one who knows the Tao in this dusk cemetery, but with such a heavy treasure here, Midi is not willing to delay even for a moment.
"What now?"
The bridge was carefully turned over three times to no avail, and Emile, Reinhardt, and Wiseman immediately looked at Midi in unison.
A week's worth of **** is enough for these three laymen to understand the importance of high-level adventurers. On the Arad continent, awakened people are rare, adventurers are common, but in this sea of clouds in the sky, the situation is exactly the opposite, awakened people are very common, and adventurers who are as proficient as Midi are rare.
For a while, the two old opponents looked dumbfounded, and they couldn't help but be Mi Di.
He coughed lightly, straightened out his thoughts, and then said: "Since the bridge with the command function has completely lost its function, then what we have to do is to go to the power system." Judging from the appearance, the propulsion part of the core should be in the middle and rear of this battleship, so it is better to look for it there. ”
No one objected, and the group immediately turned to the rear of the "Wind King" cruiser, but this time they ran into some trouble.
In the passage to the power room, Midi unexpectedly found a large number of magic crystals, which were installed on the shelves, stacked neatly together, and even crowded the entire main passage! Not only that, but near the magic crystals, a countdown detonator was also laid out!
Fortunately, there was obviously a problem with this timer, so that it didn't finish after tens of thousands of years, otherwise, how could he wait for Midi to crash into such an intact celestial battleship after 10,000 years? So many magic crystals exploded together on the main road located near the battleship's keel, even if it was a sturdy celestial battleship, it would directly break into two!
Seeing the magic crystals piled up like this mountain, and the magic crystals condensed with essence magic power, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, including Midi.
Fortunately, Midi was in danger, and finally stepped forward to carefully remove the detonators that had been arranged 10,000 years ago, and then, everyone cautiously began to move these magic crystals away from the main passage, which took several hours, and when most of the magic crystals were scattered into many different cabins, this artificial "super bomb" was completely eliminated from hidden dangers.
Apparently, the crew of the cruiser, before leaving, was going to self-detonate the battleship.
As for the reason for the self-explosion, Midi and his party finally found the answer in the power room.
The "Wind King" cruiser's power system is still alive, the suspension system is still alive, the fire control system and weapons and equipment are intact, however, the part of the magic circuit used to transmit magic power is almost completely burned out.
It's like a person who has a whole body intact, sound limbs, and a clear mind, but there is something wrong with the nervous system in the body.
The worst result is paralysis.
And the reason for this phenomenon is that this Celestial Battleship, using an experimental weapon mounted on its own, launched an all-round attack that greatly exceeded its own load.
In a stack of materials located in the power room, Midi found the name of the weapon.
Its name is - Yang Yan Aura.
