Star Railroad: I made up the unknown and scared the gods to tears

[2000-2]

[Technician 'DATA EXPUNGED' reported the discovery of a highly decomposed body while performing maintenance on the SRA unit in sector 3382. 】

[Analysis of the clothing fragments on the remains showed that the remains were 450-700 years old. 】

[xxx’s valid Foundation security certificate was found near the body, but genetic comparison is no longer possible, so we have no way of confirming it. 】

[The following records were found in a sealed plastic folder:]

[Why do we have to build this thing? 】

[When did we do it? 】

[How long have we been doing this? 】

【Do we know? ! 】

During the subsequent interrogation, it was confirmed that Dr. xx knew nothing about the matter and this information.

..................

The above is the entire content of the monument.

"Little is known."

"Hard to decipher."

Screwgum retracted his gaze towards the monument and shook his head helplessly.

It’s not that the monument gave too little information.

after all.

The foundation carved the written story here not for them to see, but for their own people to observe and learn from in the future to prevent the above-mentioned mistakes.

Even if an outsider comes to the construction site of Deus ex machina by chance.

I came across these documents again by coincidence.

It's also hard to guess anything.

After all, they know so little...

.

quickly,

After finishing excerpting the story, Heita also turned his gaze away from the monument.

She swept forward helplessly and asked Screwgum, "Next, should we continue going down or go home?"

Keep going.

It should be in an area where the instrument signal cannot be transmitted.

Based on guesswork.

That should be an important area for the deus ex machina.

Without the foundation's 'key', it would be difficult to enter the interior of the Deus Ex Machina.

of course.

If they use violent means, it doesn't mean they can't break open the door to the area, but... is this really a good idea?

...that's not good.

She and Screwgum rushed to the deus ex machina construction area to investigate without the owner's consent, which was already very rude.

If at this time.

Continuing to intensify the offense and breaking through the threshold of important areas of Deus Ex Machina to conduct in-depth investigations will easily offend the Foundation.

This is a bad thing for both Heita personally and the genius club.

Moreover.

The Black Tower has no intention of becoming an enemy of the Foundation.

That's why she asked Screw Gumu at this time whether to retreat or to advance rashly.

The projection beside him thought for a moment.

The answer was given: "Leave for now... Anyway, we have obtained the location of the deus ex machina, and we can continue to investigate in the future."

After saying this, Screwgum stopped meaningfully.

He turned his attention to the Black Tower.

For her, the warning given in the Star Containment Directory was repeated: "Don't interpret the wrong content at the wrong time, otherwise, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

heard.

Heita's eyes clearly flashed with fear.

After all...the deeds of the Foundation were something that no one in the universe had ever known before, and she didn't want to get into trouble with it.

then.

The genius could only shake his head and stopped his curiosity to continue exploring.

"Then let's just leave."

Say it.

Black Tower then controlled the puppet to turn around and return to the area where it came from.

..................

"action."

It was also when Black Tower and Screwgum were about to leave, instructions came from the ear of the man hidden in the darkness.

He dropped all pretense.

In an instant.

He was discovered by the Black Tower's sensing instrument.

As the instrument beeped with alarm, Heita, who was about to leave, immediately turned around and asked, "Who is it!?"

Looking at the location where the instrument sent the alarm, the Black Tower clearly found... a figure clearly appeared at the corner of the depth area further forward!

...This guy has been here all along? ! !

An absurd and horrifying conclusion came to their minds.

She and Screwgum never discovered that there was a third party in the area from beginning to end. In other words, the other party's concealment methods had exceeded all the genius club's investigation methods!

"No wonder...the Foundation has been active in the universe for such a long time, and no one has discovered it..."

Screwgum’s voice became solemn.

"who is it?"

"Don't worry... I don't mean any harm, I just want to take you to see something..." At this time, the figure hiding around the corner slowly walked out.

The moment of meeting each other.

He expressed his intention to Heita and Screwgum.

This puzzled Black Tower even more.

She and Screwgum had been studying here for so long and he didn't come out. Instead, they were about to leave. He came out and said he wanted to take the two of them to see something?

"I know you don't believe me."

“But on second thought.”

"Without my help, would you two really be able to see the content on this monument?"

"You have to know that these are the two known accident histories of 'Deus Mechanicus No. 2000'. You don't think that the Foundation will put it in the open for everyone who 'accidentally enters here' to observe, right?"

The shadow man seemed to know that the two of them did not believe in him.

But he didn't care.

Because he has something in his hand that is enough to attract the Black Tower... No, this should be a treasure that can attract countless geniuses and drive them crazy!

These - are the three artifacts that link the mechanical gods!

Scranton Reality Anchor!

Continuous time slot!

as well as......

As the real terror that reshapes civilization - the human replicator!

Just ask,

Which scientist can remain indifferent after hearing their names?

Looking at the man who expressed his intention, Heita became obviously silent, "Are you...an internal member of the Foundation?"

Only members of the foundation can take them into the central area of ​​the deus ex machina, and have the authority to let them view those extraordinary things.

"Internal...it doesn't really count."

"I am only the foundation's external eyes and ears. Under normal circumstances, I naturally do not have the authority to view the deus ex machina."

"Not to mention bringing outsiders to check out the deus ex machina."

"You mean..." Screwgum instantly captured the key words in the man's words.

‘Normal times! ’

The man smiled softly and did not give a direct answer, but said, "Follow me."

"We're talking as we walk."
