Five Frozen Centuries Chapter 70 - Lost Technology

Chapter 70: Lost Technology

The screen shattered again, but the gluttonous snake still did not rush out of the game. The screen was just a special effect. The gluttonous snake rushed out of the Earth and swallowed the Moon. Its body grew again after consuming the Moon, and Wei Huo could control it and make it rampage the Solar System.

However, Wei Huo did not control the gluttonous snake. He instead fell into deep thought. Could there be something special about this game?

Wei Huo thought about it and decided to control the gluttonous snake as it charged toward the sun. However, halfway through its journey, the gluttonous snake started struggling. It seemed like it was unwilling to reach the sun and it even managed to escape Wei Huo’s control several times to swim back.

Wei Huo was confused. Is this a system setting? Or does the gluttonous snake have its own thoughts in the game? If I continued controlling it and made it swallow everything in the universe, would it really rush out of the game world and come to the real world?

This was a terrifying game.

A scary game did not have terrifying elements, nor did it create a horrifying atmosphere. It knew how humans thought and made humans fear reality.

Wei Huo understood at that moment. The game was simple, but it prevented the snake from getting a high score. If the snake got a high score, the whole universe would be destroyed at once!

If one did not have guts, one would not have a better heritage!

Wei Huo felt like his life was a one-on-one game. If he made the decision to continue cultivating this gluttonous snake, he would have to face the monster he created one day.

So… should I do it or not?

Wei Huo made a decision at that moment. He controlled the snake’s head and made it swallow Mercury. Then, it swallowed Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn. Once the snake became big enough, it would swallow the sun in one bite.

There was nothing in the universe that could stop the snake anymore. Wei Huo started making the snake devour things like crazy. The Milky Way, the Exodus Star System… At the last moment, the gluttonous monster grew to an unlimited size and almost broke through the universe. Wei Huo hesitated for three more seconds before controlling the snake and making it swallow Earth.

Click! The screen cracked again!

This time, the screen really shattered. The game did not show that it was over, nor did it show that it had been cleared, as the game screen had shattered.

At the same time, terrifying sounds of thunder were coming from outside the cave. Wei Huo was too engrossed in his game to realize that it was already dark outside. The battle between the Wild Giant and the Black Dragon seemed to have ended. There were only sounds of thunder and flashes of lightning outside. The atmosphere was as tense as if doomsday had arrived.

However, nothing happened after he waited for three minutes. Wei Huo touched his nose and realized that he was overthinking things. This was just a game, and the screen would break when one cleared it. The game’s purpose was to scare the player.

Through the shattered screen, Wei Huo saw a new tunnel. He decided to enter the new tunnel and then saw a technologically-advanced metal tunnel.

Wei Huo continued his journey. After a few steps, he arrived at a floating platform. Wei Huo saw a gigantic s.p.a.cecraft standing on it.

It was a silver-white s.p.a.cecraft in the shape of a fan. The front was small, the back was huge, and there were two huge nozzles at its end. Wei Huo took out his scanner. After scanning it for more than three minutes, a ‘particle thruster’ blueprint appeared on his blueprint interface.

This was lost technology!

Wei Huo knew that he had killed it this time. There were definitely all kinds of Black Technology on this ship. Of course, his scanner was real Black Technology. No matter how advanced and complicated technology was, he could always turn it into a blueprint.

Wei Huo jumped down from the platform. When he landed on the surface of the ship, not a single sound was coming from it. The materials on the surface of the ship were arranged neatly. There was not a single vibration when they collided with Wei Huo’s feet.

Wei Huo was curious about the materials needed to build this ship. Unfortunately, his scanner could not scan the whole ship. He could only scan it part by part.

Wei Huo scanned the surroundings and found some blueprints for laser turrets, antimatter guns, energy shields, and other stuff. However, this was all the advanced technology that was on the surface of the ship. One had to enter the ship to obtain more.

Wei Huo finally found the cabin door of the ship after searching for a long time. However, the cabin door was sealed shut and was extraordinarily hard. Wei Huo pulled out Tiamat and slashed it dozens of times, but it did not leave a single trace.

Wei Huo estimated that the ship was protected by rules. One could only open the cabin door by unlocking it.

Wei Huo began searching his surroundings. Soon, he found a cabin. The cabin was completely buried in soil. If it was not for Wei Huo’s Ma.s.sacre Mode, he would not have found it. When he dug out the cabin, he saw a woman lying in it.

Humans were already dead if they were not being protected by the golden light.

Wei Huo guessed that this could be a storyteller. He then opened the hibernation chamber. The woman was wearing a Super Weaver. Based on Wei Huo’s knowledge, this Super Weaver was not a product that humans could manufacture at the moment. Currently, Wei Huo was the only human who could craft Super Weavers.

That person had to be a character in the story. She was G.o.d’s character. She was a corpse.

Wei Huo searched the cabin and found a navigation recorder. Fortunately, it had electricity.

Most importantly, Wei Huo knew how to control this thing.

Erm…

There was only one voice recorder and one play b.u.t.ton. The navigation recorder had been designed to cut corners!

Wei Huo tapped the play b.u.t.ton and a woman’s voice came from the recorder. “In the 357th year of the Wild Age, we found a planet our race can survive on. We are trying to descend on this planet to collect samples. There is a snowy mountain… That’s not good! Some monsters on the snowy mountain have attacked us with unknown methods! The ship has lost control! The ship has lost control!”

A series of weird noises was followed by various explosions. The people’s panicked voices were followed by the sound of a huge s.p.a.cecraft crashing. Then, everything went quiet.

Wei Huo was confused. That was it.

At that moment, the recorder spoke again. “The ship has crashed. There are no signs of damage on its surface. However, the ship’s AI has been destroyed. The monsters attacked us with an unknown method, and we can’t fight back. The s.p.a.cecraft’s ultra-lightspeed communication device cannot be used, and I can’t communicate with my people. I can only leave the navigation recorder behind and then use the life-saving system to power it up. If you are from the future or from another civilization, please bring this recorder to my people.”

Wei Huo was speechless.

How could something as important as a navigator record say so little? You did not even say which civilization you belonged to!

Wei Huo felt that the game was not completed yet. There were too many bugs, and many places needed to be repaired.
