Chapter 1468 Scepter and Incense Burner

Although the composition of recyclers is complex, they are all a group of adventurous guys. They believe that the bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish.

Ordinary civilian ships dare not casually explore ghost ships. At most, they mark the coordinates and report back.

But exploring ghost ships is almost a standard operation for recyclers. Alyssa will not give up the opportunity to solve the mystery.

Everyone pointed their guns at every corpse that floated by, fearing that he would suddenly turn into an undead creature and move, but this did not happen.

It stands to reason that such high negative energy will definitely give birth to undead creatures. Alyssa even thinks it is normal to have one or two ghost zombies.

But there is nothing, which is abnormal.

With doubts and confusion, everyone finally floated to the position where the blue light was emitted.

It was a small open space in the container. At least dozens of people gathered there. The surrounding containers seemed to open their arms and embraced them.

Of course, these people were also corpses, without any life reactions.

It felt like they knew they could not survive, so they all gathered here and turned off their life support systems to avoid suffering in a slow death.

The blue light I saw before was on the floor between these people. There was a ball of something that emitted a faint blue light, like a flame.

"Eternal Flame, I should have thought it was this thing earlier."

Eternal Flame is a spell. It is not as hot as a flame, and the light it emits is also dim. The only advantage is that it lasts for a very long time. Once it is cast, it can continue to glow for several years.

Judging from the situation at the scene, when the ship had an accident, all the crew members ran into the cargo hold. Later, because the reactor failed and the magic power of the energy storage pool was exhausted, the airlock door of the cargo hold could not be opened. Because there was no light, they used the eternal flame for lighting.

But...

This is not suicide, right?

Obviously, there is not only a huge airlock door to enter the cargo hold. Usually, there are at least two large doors in the cargo hold to facilitate the transportation of goods, and at least four small doors to facilitate the entry and exit of the crew.

The large airlock door cannot be opened without energy, but the small door is a purely mechanical structure, which can be opened by turning the door handle.

The equipment on this ship is almost intact, even new. Even if something unexpected happens, they should not wait for death and not try to save themselves.

Alyssa originally thought that she would get answers here, but now it seems that there are more problems.

After taking out the scanner and scanning these corpses, confirming that they are just corpses, not undead creatures, Alyssa asked everyone to pass through the corpses.

This puts a new test on the psychological endurance of the soldiers. Everyone is working on the warship. No matter how fierce the war is, it is unlikely to see a large number of corpses.

Especially the people of the Glow Ion Hermitage have no human appearance due to the high rate of mechanization transformation. Walking among such a group of corpses, there are corpses floating everywhere, up and down, left and right. It's exciting to think about it.

Alyssa is the calmest. It's too common for recyclers to find valuable things in the pile of corpses. If necessary, Alyssa has also experienced the experience of picking out information hidden in dentures from the mouth of a corpse.

So rest assured, they are not a threat.

When everyone floated into the corpses, Alyssa noticed at a glance that one of these corpses was very special.

He held the incense burner in one hand and the golden scepter in the other, and even death did not let him let go.

This operation looked like a ceremony to appease the machine soul before death, but Alyssa remembered that Li Chengxi once said that the Glow Ion Hermitage was his people, but they worshiped the wrong holy emblem, so Li Chengxi could not contact them directly.

If what Li Chengxi said was true, then these people did not hold a ceremony to appease the machine soul before death to save themselves, but prayed to the holy emblem, hoping that a true god could help them.

With the piety shown by the Glow Ion Hermitage in the Deep Diving Devil, they would definitely not trouble the gods they worshiped for anything they could solve.

They must have encountered something beyond their ability.

Thinking of this, Alyssa gestured to the people around her to alert everyone, and floated forward a short distance to grab the body holding the incense burner and the scepter.

An extremely cold feeling came along the fingers, but it seemed to be just an illusion, after all, heavy protective clothing can block the cold.

Alyssa looked at the man carefully, but did not find any more clues. She had to reach out and pull the implant behind the man's head out of the socket. Perhaps when she returned to the Swan, she could extract some useful information from it.

At this point, Alyssa should have been satisfied. Regardless of how these people died, at least it was all over. Alyssa now returned to the Swan and organized mechanics to adjust the reactor, and organized people to clean up the bodies and open the container to see what it was.

But Alyssa looked at the scepter and incense burner in the man's hand.

The scepter was golden, but not gold, but a brass alloy. The texture was very hard. The shape of the scepter head was like a gear. Under the scepter head was inlaid with a translucent emerald. It felt that the scepter itself could be used as a melee weapon.

As for the incense burner, it was made of purple copper. Of course, it no longer smoked. The hollow patterns and gold chains made it look very valuable.

Perhaps there were some secrets hidden in these things?

Don't forget, I mentioned before when I was diving into the devil that Alyssa's hobby is collecting sacred relics. She has a special room on the starship to store these collections, which is full of them.

So when she saw these, Alyssa was moved. She stretched out her hand to move the mechanical fingers of the corpse and snatched the scepter.

But before she could see what was wrong with this scepter, suddenly, a strong buzzing sound appeared in everyone's ears.

It did not come from the communication channel, nor from the speakers in the protective suit. It was like echoing in everyone's head, making people a little dazed.

Along with the buzzing sound, there was also a faint film.

Because the light was not very good, Alyssa could not see it clearly, but she could see a layer of film like a transparent plastic sheet. Looking around, the film was like a cover, covering everyone and all the corpses.

Alyssa thought she had triggered some magic trap for a moment, but immediately saw that the film began to break rapidly from the top.

Only then did she realize that she had not triggered a trap, but had lifted some previously invisible spell effects.

"Let's go, get out quickly."

She grabbed the incense burner again and signaled everyone to retreat immediately.

The soldiers had of course wanted to leave a long time ago, and they were quite excited to hear the order, but before they had completely left the corpses around them, Alyssa saw that the cracking film had completely disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, a shrill roar pierced the auditory nerves, and everything in front of her began to blur, as if some terrible monster had awakened...
