Keys To The Gate 81 Ruin In The Trench

The place was spectacularly shiny, ventilators, factory robot arms, chemical and material science labs that seemed to be from the future.

An artificial voice spoke out from the speakers. "Welcome to the Archea, an isolation research station and survival base created to backup records created by Heltington Fletcher. You have been identified as a genetically modified human with base human genome. As the first visitor since the initiator of Protocol 66, you have been a.s.signed admin rights to the research station."

Tristan was flooded by a lot of information. A high technology Research Station. Tristan was led to a room with an advanced augmented reality projector.

Tristan loudly asked. "Who built this Research Station?"

A voice immediately responded through the speakers. "This research station was commissioned by none other than Mr. Heltington Fletcher, the richest person on Earth as a place to research advanced technologies like healthcare, augmented warfare, material sciences and chemical technologies as well as the flagship project, the creation of Biologically Modified super creatures."

Tristan was confused, richest person in the world? He suddenly thought of something. "Which civilization was this station commissioned by?"

The voice did not speak for some time. After a few minutes it finally voiced out. "According to the discovered historical records, this research station was commissioned during the civilization that can definitely be labelled the sixth in order of time."

"Sixth Civilization..." Tristan sucked in a breath. He had entered the remains of the seventh civilization earlier and this time, he found the sixth civilization due to interacting with Calico Jack.

"Can you describe the hallmarks of the civilization?" Tristan continued to ask.

He soon got an answer. "The civilization was considered an advanced technology civilization that could be considered the foremost across the various connected worlds in the arenas of biomechanical modification and material sciences.

While the civilization did not have expansionist policies, its influence across the alliance of the difference worlds as a technological superpower was not in doubt. Mr. Heltington Fletcher was a foremost researcher and richest recorded person during the period of this civilization."

Tristan was shocked, the sixth civilization turned out to be a purely technological power. Tristan then asked another question. "How did the humans in this civilization deter other worlds? How did humans acquire strength?"

"The primary methods of deterrence were the creation of biologically modified super beasts using the remains of a mammoth super creature smuggled from world at constant war. The tentacled squid protecting this station is the pinnacle product of this process."

Tristan sucked in another breath. "Turns out the Kraken was actually created at this base.."

The voice continued. "The second method was the use of mechanical implantation into humans to increase strength. Examples include neural chips, mechanical hearts, mechanical augments for bones etc. These implements are combined with a practice of absorbing energy particles to increase the strength of the body."

Tristan was shocked, but the voice did not stop. "The third method is the use of weapons and technology constructs to aid in combat, to overwhelm the enemy."

Tristan then slowly looked around the lab and entered the different rooms. "What authority do I have?" Tristan asked.

"As designated Admin of the research station, you have complete authority of the base unless blocked by a higher authority. You may use the research products created here." The voice answered.

Tristan entered a room full of chemicals. Behind a sealed compartment, he saw an array of injectors holding a red chemical compound within them. "What are these red compounds?" Tristan asked.

"They are proprietary compound Ditral-C, a one time use chemical that can increase the resistance of the human body to corrosive elements."

Tristan immediately took out one of the injectors and self injected it into his arm. Immediately his status alerted him.

[Corrosion Resistance +10%]

His total Corrosion Resistance became 45% as a burning feeling pa.s.sed through his body. He went through the chemical lab to the next lab which looked like an operation theater, with a robotic operator and all kinds of mechanical implants in hermetically sealed compartments on the walls of the lab. Tristan asked the voice what this lab was for.

"This is the operating area to implant mechanical augments." The voice said.

Tristan thought it looked high tech, but he did not wish to insert any mechanical object within his body, as it would most probably fail to function due to his restrictions.

Tristan then went to the next room. In this room there was only a single object. It was a big bottle filled with some silvery material that kept moving within the bottle rapidly.

"What is this object?' Tristan asked.

"This is the peak experimental material science product of the research station. Only one product was successfully made. This is a swarm of liquid nanites. They are made from the toughest known hydrodynamic material discovered. The base form is as a clothing, but they can also form particle shields, energy weapons and connected with mental signals."

When Tristan heard that he was excited.He asked the voice. "How do I control them?"

"The swarm has already acknowledged you as its owner, you simply need to think and it can detect your neural signals and act accordingly." The voice replied.

Tristan then thought and the nanites left the bottle and surrounded his body forming a white Trenchcoat. With another thought, he could form a gun and then change that into a sword or even form a shield or barrier. This was an extremely versatile weapon. Tristan nodded, just this weapon alone was worth coming to this research station, though the mechanical implants are potentially more shocking to the human world as a whole.

Tristan then went to the final lab. This lab was filled with vats of various creatures and tissue culture. This was the lab for creating and controlling biological super creatures. There in another sealed box, Tristan discovered a small transmitter.
