Death… And Me

Chapter 2446 Failed Equipment

Rean and Kentucky\'s excitement disappeared as fast as it appeared, knowing that they just lost a huge treasure. "It was going way too well to be true..."

"System, has Romario Faran worked on any project other than the Manipulation of Celestial Laws research and the usage of Soul Worms?" Rean didn\'t dwell on the previous information and continued his questions.

-Negative-

Rean nodded as he continued to walk with Kentucky. Even if there wasn\'t much to be done in this facility, they could at least gather its resources. "Well, let\'s go check that giant robot."

"Okay," Kentucky didn\'t mind and followed Rean.

A few minutes later, they arrived at a huge warehouse. It was very well maintained, with a few of the robots that were specialized in maintenance walking around. Yet, most of the warehouse was completely empty, with the sole exception of the giant robot at the back.

"System, what is this robot? Give me a detailed explanation," Rean ordered the system.

-Zashion Model 3WB version 2.34009-

-The Zashion Model 3WB is mainly specialized in the manipulation and extraction of dead solar cores. It is capable of not being affected by the enormous gravity, time displacements, and spatial destruction of such cores, allowing one to move such cores as one pleases. From Version 2.2 and beyond, an additional feature was added, providing the Zashion Model with the power of breaking down such cores if necessary.-

Kentucky was completely lost after hearing those words.

However, Rean was different. "Wait! When you say dead solar cores... are you talking about Black Holes?!"

-Is the user using the nomenclature of this planet?-

"Yes," Rean nodded. The name Black Hole was indeed something he heard here on Earth first. It didn\'t mean it was the same in other places.

-The user is correct. Black Hole does fit the description and is another name given to the same material based on this planet\'s nomenclatures.-

Rean breathed coldly after hearing that. "Holy shit! A Black Hole\'s gravitational pull is absolutely ridiculous. How can that robot get close to it without turning into smashed scrap?! No, I guess it was supposed to spaghettification first? Anyway, this is crazy!"

Kentucky looked at the robot before saying, "I don\'t know much about what you are talking about. However, if you are mentioning gravity, then you are talking about the laws of earth. I can feel countless pieces of metal with huge earth properties in this robot that I would love to take a bite of. They are mostly centered around this little spec of material you mentioned."

Rean touched the giant robot as if he was looking at a treasure. Well, it was a treasure just with the metals and circuitry runes it had, even if it couldn\'t move. Rean then noticed a tiny, tiny spec of material at one of the most protected parts of the robot in the center. Above all, only now did he notice that this fragment appeared in his Natural Spatial Perception, showing that it was affecting space around it just like cultivators at the Void Tempering Realm and above. After he heard what the system said, he couldn\'t help but ask. "System, is this robot powered by a fragment of a Black Hole?"

-Affirmative-

"And here I thought it only used Divine Energy to move. Well, it does use Divine Energy, but not only it. The guys from outside the Universe are truly impressive," said Rean.

Rean truly wanted to control this robot. Yet, he couldn\'t find anything like a cockpit inside it. "Well, it makes sense. System, this robot has no space for an operator, right? It is remotely controlled."

-Affirmative- the system answered before continuing. -Caution is required when controlling the Zashion Model. Even with all the protection features, a fragment of a Black Hole still possesses huge destructive power. If the isolation of the fragment fails, anyone near it without the necessary cultivation to resist the gravity pull will have a high risk of death.-

Rean wasn\'t surprised. "I\'ve never been close to a Black Hole before. System, what level of cultivation would be necessary for someone to be able to resist this robot\'s fragment\'s gravitational pull?"

-Based on the directories of the Zashion Model from Lingan University, only cultivators at the Peak Stage of the Space-Time Realm would be considered safe near it, but only if they use their full strength to resist the gravitational pull, and they wouldn\'t last more than a few seconds. For direct manipulation, a cultivation of Divinity Realm Middle Stage is recommended.-

Rean nodded, already expecting as much. "So this thing would still be somewhat dangerous for us. Oh, right! System, do you know why Romario Faran left this robot behind? It seems to be a quite rare piece of equipment."

-Subject Romario Faran used the Zashion Model to cut another fragment of a dead solar core, which was used to power up this facility. Reason: No natural Divine Energy was provided for the work of all the mechanisms. The auxiliary models and schematics that don\'t rely on Divine Energy were necessary, thus the fragment of a dead solar core.-

-During the process of adding the fragment to the isolation chamber of the facility, the Zanshion Model suffered some damage due to a long period of lack of maintenance. The facility was successfully activated, but the Zashion Model became too unstable for transportation. It has been sealed in this warehouse ever since as the necessary materials to fix the Zashion Model were used in the construction of the Isolation Chamber of the facility.-

Rean was taken aback as he took a few steps back. "Are you saying that the Fragment of the Black Hole inside could break out of the robot\'s isolation chamber at any moment?"

-The user\'s conjecture is correct. At the moment, the Zashion Model\'s Isolation Chamber is still working, but the system can\'t give an estimation for how long.-
