Beast Taming: Abyssal Descent
Chapter 594 - 422
The aliens who abandoned their flesh and blood, retaining only their consciousness, had no secrets left when faced with Grey Wolf.
Thus, the entire backstory of the "Civilization’s Wound" dungeon was fully uncovered by Grey Wolf.
One can only say that this alien race, resembling dwarfs, had let themselves go a bit too far after stepping into interstellar civilization.
And then they provoked another more advanced interstellar civilization, leading to their disastrous destruction.
Their home planet, called Celestial Star, was directly engulfed by the enemy’s release of the "Red Sorrow Fog," bringing a genetic mutation to the entire planet.
Every living thing, be it animal or plant, was affected, each undergoing genetic mutation amid the disaster.
The dwarf alien race was worse off because the "Red Sorrow Fog" was specifically tailored for them.
While other animals and plants mutated towards higher life forms,
the dwarf alien race mutated into monsters. Once mutation began, they quickly lost their sanity and gradually turned into terrifying monsters, completely losing rationality and becoming bloodthirsty creatures.
The leaders of the dwarf alien race, along with their families and some elite members, boarded interstellar battleships or spacecraft to escape Celestial Star, eluding their enemy’s pursuit in the universe.
The vast majority of the dwarf alien race was abandoned on the home planet, destroyed by the "Red Sorrow Fog," until they finally faced extinction.
Some unwilling scientists gathered overnight at several super laboratory bases, beginning research to find a solution.
To temporarily delay the "Red Sorrow Fog" from destroying their genes, they first developed semi-mechanical transformations to delay mutation for some members of the dwarf alien race.
Unfortunately, the "Red Sorrow Fog," worthy of being a weapon crafted by a more advanced interstellar civilization,
could not be cracked even after the dwarf alien race on the home planet persisted for more than a year, ultimately leading to the regretful obliteration of their entire species.
Some unwilling scientists transferred their consciousness into the server’s database, becoming electronic life forms, forever trapped in the server, living in hiding.
However, the energy of the experimental base would eventually deplete, and at that time, they would still face final annihilation.
To delay the time of death, they put the experimental base into energy-saving mode, allowing it to last over a thousand years.
Of course, in energy-saving mode, they themselves were mostly in a state of slumber.
This was one of the reasons why Grey Wolf was able to capture them so quickly.
"Boss, there are still quite a few functioning devices in this base that we can utilize.
And I’ve already cracked the underlying control permissions for those Tier Nine mechanical beasts; we can control them now."
Grey Wolf, looking at the screen parsing various data, turned to Mo Qingchen and said.
"Then activate these Tier Nine mechanical beasts and clear out the failed products that have lost control on the first, second, and third levels."
The combined Transformers, after annihilating some Tier Eight and lower mechanical beasts, had already fallen into an energy-depleted state.
At this moment, engaged in close combat with these mechanical beasts, its metal body sustained damage to varying degrees.
If it weren’t for the fact that this thing became extremely enormous after the combination, it might have already been torn into shattered pieces of metal by the swarming mechanical beasts.
"No problem, watch this!"
Nodding, Grey Wolf immediately sent out a command.
A fly robot perched on the server connection port on the fifth underground floor inputted a highly complex password chain into the server.
In the next moment, the dim underground laboratory seemed to be activated, one light after another emitting a red and white glow.
The base server was activated, the database started up, the operating system booted, and the system’s authority was directly handed over to the "Spacecraft."
"Little Dum-Dum, revoke the sleep command for the Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts, input the annihilation mission, with targets being the mechanical monster groups on the first, second, and third underground levels!"
"Received, taking over the fifth-floor terminal system of the underground experimental base, converting command format... revoking Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts’ sleep command... modifying mission command... energy transmission... all Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts activated!"
Accompanied by Little Dum-Dum’s continuous announcements, the eyes of all Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts in slumber on the fourth underground level emitted a blood-red glow almost simultaneously.
In the next moment, the sound of mechanical gears turning clicked from within their bodies.
Energy began to flow within their bodies, each module being activated and started up.
In about ten seconds, these formerly rusted Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts began to move, each crawling up from the floor, and then began to flex their components.
Another ten seconds later, their bodies fully activated, regaining agility, and then each began connecting to the terminal control panel. After reading the terrain map, they started moving towards the mechanical monster groups on the first, second, and third underground levels.
Their movement speed transitioned from initial slow stuttering to flexible agility and then to rapid displacement in just three seconds, restoring these Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts to normal status.
In the next moment, all sorts of weapons ejected from within their bodies.
There were guns and cannons, high-tech cold weapons, and even small detectors or trackers.
