Alien Relic Hunter
Chapter 578 Open Sesame
Ke Lan carefully checked around the liquid door, but found no mechanism related to opening the door at all.
He even had the urge to dig directly through the rock wall, into the mountain, and bypass this strange door.
It's just that... although the active armor has strong combat capabilities, its sharp and thin claws are somewhat ineffective when used to excavate earth and rocks.
He could easily cut through the rock, but it would be more difficult to dig it out unless the front rock wall was cut into pieces... But in this case, the time required would be unacceptable.
"There is no mechanism...not even a groove for inserting energy crystals or a safety device like a mercury lock...then how do you open this door?"
Looking at the white "door" in front of him, Ke Lan became a little anxious - the prophet had obtained Dr. Renee's research results and his own cloned cells, and this place was left by an Alpha civilization and was used for production. For him, everything is ready for the "man-made monster" biochemical laboratory, and he doesn't even owe Dongfeng... All the prophet needs is time.
The current situation is almost the same as the "memetic infection" incident - in the contaminated area, Ke Lan needs to race against time to prevent the "meme" from causing uncontrollable mutations; and in this cave, he also needs to race against time to prevent the "meme" from causing uncontrollable mutations. The prophet has come up with something even more difficult than Seraph.
With every second of delay, the difficulty and risk factor of the task increases exponentially. What makes Ke Lan feel the most headache is that he has no idea how much time is left for him. The only thing he can do is to speed up. , try your best to stop the prophet before his plan is completed.
He even ran all the way in, without even being able to hide his whereabouts - but he bumped into this strange liquid door and stopped him.
Just when Ke Lan was about to dig a hole to get around, a very famous folktale from the old era suddenly popped into his mind - "Alibaba and the Forty Thieves". In this story, the cave used by the bandits to hide their treasures has a very magical "voice-activated door". As long as the spell "Open Sesame" is shouted, the door of the cave will open.
Although voice-activated doors are commonplace in this era and are not considered cutting-edge technology, in that era when even electricity had not been discovered, they were as incredible as the title of the story collection "Arabian Nights."
The door locks that have appeared in human history are nothing more than these types: purely mechanical keys, password locks composed of numbers and characters, key magnetic cards using radio frequency identification technology, and a series of key cards that use fingerprints, iris, voice prints or faces. Smart locks that identify physiological characteristics such as bone structure. There are also some relatively rare locks that use the blood or body fluids of people with unlocking authority to open the locks. Such locks rarely appear in the civilian market and are generally used in reactors and virus databases. important place.
Of course, these locks can also be used in combination. For example, one needs to swipe the card first, then enter the password, then insert the key, then verify the fingerprint and voice, scan the iris at the same time during facial recognition, and finally collect the blood of the person who unlocks the lock. Sample——If it cannot match the previous physiological characteristics, even if a single authentication is passed, the lock will not be opened.
This is a relatively extreme example. In short, Ke Lan has never seen such a door in reality, but it is quite common to use two or three unlocking methods at the same time. Not to mention anything else, just Miss Soma's door That luxury car requires both the key card and voice recognition to be successfully authenticated before it can be started.
Ke Lan looked at the white door in front of him and eliminated all the unlocking methods one by one. In the end, the only two methods left were voice control and blood.
No, blood can also be eliminated - when he inserted his finger into the door just now, the white liquid had direct contact with his own blood, but the door was not opened, and instead he lost half of his finger.
As for voice control... There is no cost in trial and error anyway, but I don't know whether the judgment is based on the password or the voiceprint. If it is the latter, then Ke Lan really has nothing to do.
He took a deep breath, looked at the door, and said slowly in the language of Alpha civilization: "Open the door."
As soon as he finished speaking, ripples suddenly appeared on the white door. The white liquid that was originally like substance gradually atomized and became transparent at the same time... In less than thirty seconds, the white door that originally blocked Ke Lan had completely disappeared. "Disappeared", revealing the dark passage behind.
"Fuck you, why?" Ke Lan couldn't help but curse... If he had known that the way to open the door was so simple, how could he have wasted nearly twenty minutes in this place.
However, he did not rush in - no one could be sure whether the visually disappearing door had really disappeared.
Ke Lan changed a finger and stretched it forward.
This time, my fingers reached the original position of the liquid door, but nothing abnormal still happened.
Move forward half a foot and it's still the same.
Only then did Ke Lan become convinced that the door had indeed disappeared.
But he did not relax his vigilance. Instead, he held up his arm and used that finger as a "pioneer" to walk towards the back passage at a constant speed.
This passage was much narrower than the passage with crystallization jars embedded outside, barely enough for two people to pass, and there were no fluorescent devices used for lighting outside along the way. Ke Lan just walked in the dark for about a kilometer. It suddenly dawned on me.
This is an extremely huge underground space. The ground, walls and dome are all reinforced with metal frames. The layout of the space is almost exactly the same as the basement discovered by the 776 Special Forces Team!
But what Ke Lan is sure of is that the basement in front of him is definitely not the same one discovered by the 776 special team.
There are neither quartz jars more than ten meters high filled with turbid liquid, nor metal stands with shackles attached that look like torture tools.
Or to put it another way, there is only one thing in the entire basement.
A "pyramid" located in the center - not the conical pyramid of ancient Egypt, but the flat-topped pyramid of the Mayan civilization.
This pyramid is about eight to ten meters high, with a bottom side of about twenty meters. The top is a small platform with a side length only half of the bottom side. On this platform stands a man wearing a wide sand-colored cloak. He lowered his head and seemed to be looking at something at his feet.
Due to the limited viewing angle, Ke Lan could not see the "thing" at his feet.
According to the photo sent to him by the intelligence dealer, this man wearing a sand-colored cloak should be the prophet...or one of the prophet's "stand-ins". Of course, that is provided that he did not change the cloak to someone else and let someone else do it. Pretend to be yourself.
Even if he is just a "substitute", Ke Lan does not dare to let down his guard at all - he is currently facing two prophet "substitutes":
The first time was in the "Sick Village" in the South Sixteenth District. That "double" had extremely terrifying fighting capabilities. If it hadn't encountered an unreasonably strong being like Ze Luo, I'm afraid Ke Lan and Ka at that time would have Rong will eventually die in his hands.
The second time, in the outer passage of Yagunaktor, the prophet's "stand-in" deceived everyone with the identity of "Park Sang-woo", and even the Undead Crew did not see through his identity... Although Later, Ke Lan and the others saw through his disguise, but they were unable to stop his sacrifice ceremony at all.
The vitality of "Park Sangwoo" is much stronger than that of the black-robed bishop who activated the Holy Word during the Arasaka Rebellion. The thing it summoned was more than enough to kill everyone in the reconnaissance team.
At first, Ke Lan and the others thought there was something wrong with the sacrificial ceremony. The summoned monster was in an unstable state, just like Ultraman who only stayed on earth for three minutes. The monster was here. Space may have a time limit - but after he successfully activated the battleship and had a conversation with another prophet stand-in in the molten mine area, he realized that the reason why the monster summoned by Park Sang-woo would die was with a high probability. It was deliberately given “for free” under the instruction of the Prophet.
The prophet did not want to kill Ke Lan in that passage. His initial purpose may have been to use the hands of "Park Sangwoo" to induce Ke Lan and the others to enter the power room and then activate Yagunaktor. But the plot did not proceed according to the script set by the prophet - Ke Lan and others noticed that there was a problem with "Park Sang-woo" and used means to deceive Park Sang-woo's lies... But in order for Yagunaktor to be successfully activated, The prophet did not let 'Park Shangyou' kill Ke Lan and others, but changed the method and naturally sent the "fruit core" that can activate the teleportation mechanism to Ke Lan and others.
Up to this point, everything was still as expected by the prophet, it was just a change from "Plan.A" to "Plan.B".
What the prophet really didn't expect was that the "crystal" in Ke Lan's body was not incomplete, but complete. With the power of the "crystal", he not only successfully launched the battleship, but his self-awareness was not as good as the prophet's. As expected, it was destroyed by the battleship's console.
In this way, it was the prophet's turn who originally wanted to kill two birds with one stone by activating the battleship and kill Ke Lan at the same time. He was so dumbfounded that he was killed by the ancient battleship without even having a chance to negotiate terms.
The prophet's plan was indeed bankrupt, but the monster summoned by Park Sangwoo left a deep impression on Ke Lan.
Its direct combat effectiveness may not be as good as the first stand that sneaked into the "Sick Village", but its ability is much weirder than the first stand. If he hadn't deliberately "given it for free", Ke Lan wouldn't have known that he would be in that abnormality. How long was the confinement in the space.
Moreover, to say the least, if the monster chooses to self-destruct, with the energy contained in the "core", it may not be as powerful as a top-spec tactical-grade nuclear warhead.
As for the four stand-ins who were later "created" and killed by the battleship, they always had different abilities. However, in the face of Yagunaktor's "absolute power", their abilities had no room to display, and they could only harbor hatred. And finally.
In comparison, Ke Lan would rather face the first type of substitute - at least, in terms of fighting, he still has some confidence with his living armor and time freeze... He has already made up his mind, if this substitute is Similar to the "Park Sang Woo" type, he would choose to run away, and then contact the fleet to directly bulldoze the underground ruins with heavy firepower... If the firepower of the human fleet is not enough, Ke Lan will not mind using Yagu at all. Nakotor hit another head.
"Should I be a substitute this time?" Ke Lan asked loudly - he did not hide the sound of his footsteps when he came in. In such an empty underground space, the echo was very loud. As long as the other party is not deaf, he should be able to hear it. Until someone walked in.
"Of course." The prophet's stand-in turned around and looked down at Ke Lan condescendingly, "If I told you that I don't have a true body...or that every stand-in is a true body, would you believe it?"
Ke Lan didn't answer. Instead, there was a roaring sound that broke through the air.
He threw the object in his hand with great force.
This is a hollow steel pipe that he removed from the sheds at the entrance of the cave. One end has been whittled into a sharp spearhead.
Ke Lan carries six such "weapons" on his body.
The first steel pipe directly pierced the body of the prophet's double, followed by the second one.
The second steel pipe was not straight, and Ke Lan tied a knot in the middle, because this steel pipe did not come out like the first one, but flew up directly with the body of the prophet's stand-in and nailed it. On a dome nearly fifty meters high.
If an ordinary person were hit by a spear thrown with such force, their body would have been torn apart long ago, but the body of the prophet's stand-in can still remain intact, which shows how strong it is.
Ke Lan threw the third and fourth spear——
The fifth root——
The sixth root——
Throat, head, heart, spleen... Every spear thrown by Ke Lan was aimed at the opponent's vital parts, except for the first one.
The target of the first spear is the prophet's substitute's spine... As long as the opponent is still a humanoid creature, cutting off the spine can produce a certain paralysis effect, creating favorable conditions for subsequent attacks.
But for some reason, he felt that the other party had no intention of dodging from the beginning...
