Chapter 1646 Man in the Can (1/2)

The room looked just like the crystallizer's Main Control Room. There were many active crystallizer machines. He had already expected such sights, so Han Sen wasn't surprised by their presence.

But this crystallizer-like room was inhabited; Han Sen saw a person inside.

Han Sen did not know if the person was dead or alive, as he was standing inside a tank made of crystal. The tank was full of liquid, which surrounded and supported the man.

The man had short black hair, and he was clad in a set of crystal armor. It looked similar to the one Han Sen had taken from Tina.

Aside from that, there was nothing outstanding about the man. By all accounts, he looked like an ordinary human. There were no extra physical abnormalities that would have suggested him to be a creature or spirit.

”Is that a human?” Han Sen was not sure. He used his Dongxuan Aura to scan the tank. Strangely, his senses could not penetrate the surface. He was unable to get a reading of the man's energy and determine if he was alive.

But when Han Sen approached the tank, he heard a voice. It said, ”The machine has an error. God's Baptism cannot be completed. Please wait or turn back.”

Han Sen looked around, unsure of where the voice had come from. But Han Sen could definitely tell it was an Al of sorts; it wasn't the voice of something living.

Han Sen chose not to leave just yet, though. This place surprised him, and the wait could give him a chance to understand the place some more.

Something must have happened there, which had resulted in the crystallizer equipment breaking.

”If I am correct, this crystal tank is the equipment used for God's Baptism.” Han Sen walked around the room, thinking. After a brief examination, he turned his attention back to the tank.

Han Sen was confused. He wasn't sure if the man in the tank was a person supposedly undergoing the baptism, or if he was the operator of the room.

”What happened here? Why is this place broken? Is it living or dead?” Han Sen had a lot of questions.

The room did not look damaged, and there was nothing special there aside from the man in the tank.

”Connection to control room has been successfully established. Would you like to open the door?” The beetle symbol on Han Sen's hand began to glow, and then the voice of the Al sounded again.

”Open.” Han Sen was happy about this. He was now sure that place belonged to the crystallizers.

”It looks like the sanctuary has a connection to the crystallizers. I just don't know if they discovered the sanctuary like humans did, or if they actually created it.” Han Sen looked at the light from the beetle, lost in thought.

A crystal wall parted silently. Han Sen looked towards it and was surprised. There were many crystallizer buildings beyond the wall, but many had been brought to ruin. The place was crumbled and broken.
