Beast Taming: Abyssal Descent
Chapter 598 - 424
The aliens who abandoned their flesh and blood, retaining only their consciousness, had no more secrets in the hands of Grey Wolf.
Thus, the entire backstory of the "Civilization’s Wound" dungeon was completely uncovered by Grey Wolf.
We can only say, this alien race that resembled dwarfs had, after crossing into the interstellar civilization, let themselves go a bit too far.
They then provoked another more advanced interstellar civilization, which brought about their calamity.
The dwarf alien race’s home planet, called Celestial Star, was directly enveloped by the "Red Sorrow Fog," bringing about a genetic mutation across the entire planet.
All living things, whether animals or plants, were affected, each undergoing genetic mutations amidst the calamity.
Even more tragic were the dwarf aliens, as the "Red Sorrow Fog" was a version specifically tailored against them.
Other animals and plants had genetic mutations, many evolving to higher forms of life.
But the dwarf aliens mutated towards monstrous forms. Once they started mutating, they quickly lost their sanity, turning little by little into terrifying monsters, completely losing their rationality and becoming bloodthirsty creatures.
The leaders of the dwarf aliens, along with their families and some elite members, took interstellar battleships or spacecraft and fled Celestial Star, escaping into the universe to avoid the enemy’s onslaught.
The vast majority of the dwarf aliens were abandoned on their home planet, ultimately annihilated by the "Red Sorrow Fog," facing complete extinction.
Some unwilling scientists gathered overnight at several super laboratory bases to begin researching solutions.
To delay the time their genes were being destroyed by the "Red Sorrow Fog," they first carried out semi-mechanical modifications, granting some dwarf aliens gene variations a temporary reprieve.
Unfortunately, the "Red Sorrow Fog" lived up to its reputation as a deadly weapon devised by a more advanced interstellar civilization.
Despite the dwarf aliens on the home planet striving for over a year, they couldn’t find a way to break it, eventually succumbed to the destruction of their entire race.
Some obstinate scientists transmitted their consciousness into the server’s database, turning into electronic lifeforms, forever trapped in the server, eking out their existence.
However, the base’s energy will eventually run out, and by then, they too will face their ultimate demise.
In an effort to delay their death, they set the base to operate in power-saving mode, extending their survival by over a thousand years.
Of course, in power-saving mode, they themselves were largely in a state of slumber.
This is one of the reasons why Grey Wolf was able to capture them so swiftly.
"Boss, there are still quite a few intact pieces of equipment within this base that we can utilize.
Moreover, I have cracked the underlying control permissions of those Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts, and they can be controlled now."
Grey Wolf looked at the various dissected data on the screen and turned to Mo Qingchen.
"Then activate these Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts, and clean out all those out-of-control failures on the first, second, and third levels."
The combined Transformers, after exterminating some Tier Eight and below Mechanical Beasts, had already fallen into energy depletion.
At this moment, being engaged in close combat by these Mechanical Beasts, its metallic body suffered various degrees of damage.
If it hadn’t become extremely massive after combining, it might have already been torn into broken metal sheets by the swarms of Mechanical Beasts.
"No problem, watch me, the great King!"
Nodding, Grey Wolf immediately sent out a command.
A fly robot perched by the server connection on the fifth underground floor input a highly complex chain of passwords into the server.
The next moment, the dim underground laboratory seemed to come alive, as one light after another emitted a red-and-white glow.
The base server activated, the database booted up, the operating system was initiated, and the system’s control was directly handed over to the "Spacecraft."
"Small Idiot, revoke the slumber command for the Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts, input the extermination mission targeting the mechanical monster groups on the first, second, and third underground floors!"
"Received, taking control of the fifth-floor terminal system of the underground experimental base, converting command format...revoking Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts’ slumber command...modifying mission commands...energy transmission in progress...all Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts activated!"
As the voice of Small Idiot continuously echoed, the eyes of all Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts that were in slumber on the fourth underground floor suddenly emitted a blood-red glow.
The next moment, the sound of mechanical gears clicking came from within their bodies.
Energy began circulating within their bodies, and modules were activated one by one.
After about ten seconds, these already rust-stained Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts began to move, each rising from the ground and starting to exercise their limbs.
Another ten seconds later, the bodies fully activated, regaining agility, and each began connecting to the terminal control station. After reading the terrain map, they charged toward the mechanical monster groups on the first, second, and third underground floors.
The movement speed, from initially slow and jerky, to agile and smooth, to rapid displacement, took only three seconds, and the Tier Nine Mechanical Beasts returned to their normal state. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
The next moment, various weapons were ejected from within their bodies.
There were guns and cannons, high-tech cold weapons, as well as small detectors or trackers.
