Chapter 861 (2/2)

“Oh.” Y’lisabet sounded disappointed. She climbed back to her chair and muttered to Lil Pea while Hao Ren, Y’zaks, and Lily left the bridge. As Petrachelys slowly moved closer to the golden spaceship, Muru’s voice came from the communicator. “Do you need me to go with you?”

Hao Ren thought for a moment and said, “Forget it, you probably can’t walk in there. The spaceship looks big, but it’s not for giants.”

“Then be careful.” Muru sounded a little sad, but he did not insist. “Those rebels are very cunning. This spaceship might be a trap. You’d better prepare the escape plan in advance.”

Hao Ren knocked on the data terminal on his shoulder and said, “This toy is my escape plan.”

“You know I’m important, so can you stop calling me a ‘toy’?”

Petrachelys was like a tiny hummingbird in front of the five-kilometer-long golden ship. It circled the giant spaceship and finally found something looking like a gate at the edge of the ‘birdcage’ structure at the rear of the giant ship. Hao Ren, Lily, and Y’zaks stood on the upper platform of Petrachelys, watching a group of UAVs flying to the gate and starting to cut the light golden armor around the gate with material pyrolysis rays.

Hao Ren and Nolan were closely watching the reaction of the golden battleship to see if it would react when the hull was damaged, such as activating the protective shields or releasing warning machines. But when the UAVs detached the whole armor plate from the spaceship, there was no reaction from the golden ship.

When the UAVs cut a big hole in the golden spaceship, violent air current and some metal fragments immediately gushed out of the big hole and the automatic damage control device of the spaceship was then activated. Hao Ren saw a large amount of liquid metal was ‘growing’ rapidly under the armor plate around the hole, trying to plug the hole. He immediately pulled Lily and Y’zaks and rushed in before the hole was completely healed.

Seconds after they rushed in, the hole was automatically sealed off.

When the air current around Hao Ren had calmed down, he stood up and looked at the hole behind him. He saw the pale golden liquid metal was moving through the armored wall and quickly covered the hole that was cut by the UAVs. The liquid metal was then hardened in a flash, leaving no traces of cut. The liquid metal was even molded into pipes and wires. Obviously, all the functions of the armored wall had been restored.

“Good technology,” the data terminal looked at it and praised the spaceship maker, “it’s good enough for a cosmic civilization. The entire shell of the spaceship should be able to grow and heal like this, and perhaps this is how it’s made.”

Hao Ren was impressed by the diversity of civilizations— the universe was so big that it had all kinds of technologies that you had never seen before.

A slight noise came from the front. Lily immediately looked up and saw a door was open. When the UAVs cut open a hole in the spaceship, some automatic devices were activated. The doors in this area were once closed. Now that the wall had been repaired automatically, so the doors were open.

“These basic systems are still running,” Hao Ren said while looking at the door, “but the higher level system has not yet responded.”

“To open the doors and repair the damage only need a simple automatic line to control, but activating the shields and self-defense firepower should require the participation of the mainframe,” the data terminal speculated, “I’m afraid the mainframe of the spaceship is down.”

Y’zaks continued to walk and said, “Then I hope it’s completely down.”
