"Finally, someone is here!" A sigh came from the darkness.
Actually, this was not a real voice, but a telepathic message. Ding Meng could sense it because he had already seen that on the left and right sides of the hatch, there was an ugly humanoid robot lying on the ground. The robots seemed to have been lying there for many years, as the surface of the metal was covered in dust and rust.
This kind of robot was called the "Crystal Energy Artificial Body". After the death of a person, the spirit body could attach itself to it and then command the body to move. However, these two models of artificial bodies were too old and were definitely not the current mainstream products.
"Who are you?" Ding Meng asked.
The eyes of the artificial body on the left suddenly began to flash red. Clearly, the internal crystal energy system had been reactivated and was injecting energy into the alloy body. The artificial body slowly stood up, and its tone was very surprised. "Huh?
Young man, is this backpack the Rainbow model?
Isn't the Rainbow model still in development?
Has it been successfully developed? "
Ding Meng was stunned. Although the Rainbow backpack was a new product of the Starbow Group, it had been out for many years. Could this spirit body have been here for many years?
The artificial body's voice became even more surprised. "Young man, are you from the Starbow Group?"
Ding Meng nodded. "Yes, I am from the Starbow Group!"
The artificial body seemed to be very excited. "That's great. Which branch of the Starbow Group are you from?
Are you the search and rescue team arranged by CEO Ling?
Or are you from the security department?
You look so young. You should be from the energy survey department, right? "
He asked many questions in one breath, and Ding Meng really could not answer him. However, it seemed that this spirit body had a deep relationship with the Starbow Group when it was alive, so he asked in return, "Who are you?"
The artificial body's electronic eyes flashed a few times, and the light dimmed a lot. Its voice was also very sad. "I am the same kind of person as you. I was originally a human. If you must ask for my name, I can also tell you that my name is Makoto Fujen!"
"Makoto Fujen?" Ding Meng was really shocked. "You?
You are the one who was certified as the number one Origin Energy Combat Master in the Starlight examination twenty-seven years ago? "
The artificial body smiled bitterly. "I didn't expect that there would still be people who know about me."
Ding Meng was so shocked that he was almost speechless. "Didn't President Zhu say that you died in outer space?
The Federation even sent out a special fleet to search for you, but they couldn't find you even after three years. "
Fujen Zhen smiled bitterly. "Yes, I'm dead. I died twenty years ago. If it wasn't for this Crystal Energy Artificial Body, my soul would have been scattered long ago …"
His tone became concerned again. "Where's Teacher Zhu Bin?
Is he okay now? "
Ding Meng nodded and said, "He is very good. He is now the principal of Starlight University."
Makoto Fuuma sighed: "That's good, that's good!"
Ding Meng asked, "Senior Feng, what is this place?"
Fujen Makoto said, "This is the S.S. Expedition that I rode in outer space back then. We are now in the connecting cabin of the starship."
The S.S. Expedition?
Ding Meng still felt that his brain was not working properly. Divine Light Technology was actually so powerful. That Ghost Eyes Demonic Eye had transported him here and there. Could it have transported him to outer space this time?
"Little thing, you're quite good at lying. You're trying to fool the youngsters!" An old, hoarse voice suddenly rang out.
Ding Meng turned his head to look. The electronic eyes of the Crystal Energy Artificial Body on the right had also turned red. It had probably seen that someone had come and had reactivated its power system.
Fujen Makoto Fuuma saw that the artificial body had awakened and was furious. "Old bastard, you've been pretending to be dead all this time!"
The artificial body laughed sinisterly. "Heh heh heh, little thing, my life is tough. How could I die before you do?"
Fujen Makoto Fuuma immediately turned around and said, "Young man, this guy is not human. Kill him and let's get out of here together."
"Not human?" Ding Meng was stunned again. "Then what is he?"
Fujen Makoto Fuuma said angrily, "This guy is a world-devouring monster!"
"Monster?"
The artificial body was also a bit annoyed. "You humans really like to think that you're infallible. Young man, let me tell you, remember my name. In your human language, my name is Xue Yue Mountain. I'm an elder of the Bloodprint Clan in the Devouring World."
Damn! Ding Meng was shocked once again. The spirit in this artificial body was actually an elder of the Devouring World. This was equivalent to an origin force warrior in the human world.
It seemed that Fujen Makoto Fuuma and Xue Yue Mountain definitely had a deep grudge when they were alive. As soon as they saw each other, they began to curse each other. However, these two fellows were already dead. Now that they were relying on the Crystal Energy Artificial Bodies to survive, it was impossible for them to use their abilities as Origin Ability Users and the Devouring World's abilities. It was equivalent to the two of them becoming half-spirit, half-metal mechanical bodies.
"The Bloodprint Clan is just trash. Scram!" Fujen Makoto Fuuma looked as if he was about to rush up and kick Xue Yue Mountain.
Xue Yue Mountain wasn't willing to be outdone. His body swayed as he tried to rush up and kick Fujen Makoto Fuuma. However, these two artificial bodies were too old, and their movements were too clumsy. It was as if two toys were about to fight.
Ding Meng felt that this was rather funny. Would you believe that a combat master and an elder were fighting?
However, they were currently in an unknown territory. Ding Meng hurriedly stepped forward. "Alright, alright. Seniors, please stop. I have some questions that I would like to ask the two of you."
Xue Yue Mountain was obviously quite fond of the term "Senior", especially when a human called him "Senior". He knew that this was a form of respect for experts in the human world. After all, humans viewed the Devouring World as monsters.
Xue Yue Mountain retreated to the side. "Hmph, little thing, you don't have as much energy as I do. It's best if you don't get physical. Once you run out of energy, you'll disappear into thin air."
Fujen Makoto Fuuma said angrily, "Don't worry. When I die, I'll definitely drag you down with me."
Xue Yue Mountain laughed heartily. "Die?
You have already died once. You are now a dead man. When you were alive, you couldn't defeat me. Now that you are dead, you still can't win against me!
What do you mean by being my scapegoat? "
Fujen Makoto Fuuma seemed to want to attack again. "Scoundrel, I can exterminate you at any time!"
Ding Meng helplessly said, "Alright, alright. Both of you, please calm down."
He secretly released his mental force and gently separated the two of them. Fujen Makoto Fuuma clearly sensed it and couldn't help but say in astonishment, "Eh, you aren't weak!"
Xue Yue Mountain's tone was very grave. "This presence … You are actually a fluxer."
Only then did Fujen Makoto Fuuma pay more attention to Ding Meng. "Little brother is young, but your cultivation is quite high. I still haven't asked for your name!"
Ding Meng said, "Senior Feng, I am also a student of Starry Splendor University. After the entrance exam, I joined Starry Rainbow Corporation. My name is Ding Meng."
Fujen Makoto Fuuma hesitantly asked, "How old is Brother Ding this year?"
Ding Meng said, "Twenty-two!"
Fujen Makoto and Xue Yue Mountain simultaneously sucked in a cold breath. To be able to cultivate a universal type of mental force at the age of twenty-two, this youngster's cultivation couldn't be lower than that of a battle master. He might even be a battle general.
Fujen Makoto Fuuma said, "Brother Ding should have obtained first place in the entrance exam, right?"
Ding Meng nodded. "First place in this year's entrance exam."
Fujen Makoto Fuuma said, "This is truly worthy of celebration. There is hope for us to return to the Federation."
Ding Meng hesitantly asked, "Could it be that we are in outer space right now?"
Fujen Makoto Fuuma said, "If I'm not mistaken, we should be in outer space."
Xue Yue Mountain sneered. "If I'm not mistaken?
It has already been twenty years. Who the hell knows where we are now. "
Ding Meng muttered to himself irresolutely, "So you are saying that I was directly teleported from the Bramble Bird Planet to outer space?"
"What are you talking about?" Fujen Makoto Fuuma's expression seemed to have changed. His electronic eyes flashed rapidly.
Xue Yue Mountain's tone was especially cold. "The Bramble Bird Planet?
Your Holy Grail Federation's Linda faction? "
Ding Meng nodded. "Yes. Is there a problem?"
Fujen Makoto Fuuma's tone was extremely serious. "Could it be that the spaceship has drifted over?
Brother Ding, wait a minute. Can you tell me in detail how you got here? "
Hearing his serious tone, Ding Meng also felt that something was amiss. So, he described Linda's riot and also explained how he had been teleported over.
However, when he described the "plaza", Fujen Makoto and Xue Yue Mountain both exclaimed in surprise, "You went into the warehouse?"
"Warehouse?" Ding Meng expressed his confusion.
Fujen Makoto Fuuma let out a long sigh. "The energy warehouse of Shenguang Technologies. It's something we have always dreamed of. I didn't expect you to be able to enter it by chance. It's a pity that you didn't stay for long."
Ding Meng was puzzled. "What's going on?"
Fujen Makoto said, "Forget it. Let the old bastard explain it to you. He knows a lot."
Twenty-seven years ago, in outer space 50 light-years away from the Devouring Realm, a space-time rift suddenly appeared without warning. A shocking mass of energy emerged from it.
From the outside, this mass of energy looked like a bright white comet. However, it was on the verge of collapse and constantly changing its form. One moment, it was like a ball of light, the next, it was like a building, and the next, it was like a pool of transparent liquid. The Devouring Realm's reconnaissance spirit demons and the Frogman Kingdom's reconnaissance ships noticed it at the same time. This was most likely the legendary Shenguang starship.
Whether it was the Holy Grail Federation, the Norse Empire, or the Devouring Realm's frogmen, they did not dare to have any designs on this god-like object. However, after sacrificing thousands of reconnaissance spirit demons, the Devouring Realm was finally able to confirm that this Shenguang starship had most likely been severely damaged by a powerful enemy in a distant space-time. It had no choice but to open a space-time rift to perform a space jump. Unexpectedly, it had escaped to the vicinity of the Devouring Realm.
The three families would not let go of such an opportunity. However, it was the Frogman Kingdom's reconnaissance ship that got there first. When the ship approached the starship, it was sucked into the vortex like a water droplet. After that, there was no more information.
Fujen Makoto's SS Expedition happened to be traveling in outer space at the time. The SS Expedition was the second starship to be sucked into the vortex, while the blood demons of Xue Yue Mountain were the third to be sucked in.
Ding Meng could not help but ask, "Were you guys alright?"
Fujen Makoto nodded and said, "Just like your previous teleportation, we were directly sent into the interior of the Shenguang starship."
Ding Meng asked, "What does the interior of the starship look like?"
Fujen Makoto shook his head helplessly. "I really can't describe it for you. The technological level of this civilization is completely beyond our imagination."
