Chapter 1466 The stench of death

The darkness in her eyes seemed to be wriggling, twisting, and crawling. The lines of terror swept in from all directions. The huge, indescribable terror ravaged Alyssa's nerves.

But all this was just a moment.

Alyssa blinked her eyes, and everything returned to normal. The breathtaking fear still remained in her mind, but it seemed that it was just an illusion.

"There is indeed something wrong with this ship."

Leaving such a comment, Alyssa continued to do what she had to do.

——The recycler's heart is really big.

Alyssa had never encountered such a situation on a ghost ship before, but Alyssa had even been to the God's Domain and even saw the corpse of the God with her own eyes. This level of fear was nothing.

She said that there was indeed something wrong with this ship because she felt that what she saw just now should be her instinct warning her that something terrible had happened on the ship.

Since it is not real, there is no need to be afraid.

Alyssa was still very stubborn and looked inside the reactor under the protection of everyone.

You can see a substance in the reactor that emits a silver-blue light under light, which is the reaction material.

This reactor is not short of materials, and it does not look damaged on the outside, but it suddenly stopped and completely cooled down.

Something took away all the energy on the ship in an instant, even the ability to generate energy.

Rather than saying that it took away the energy, it is more like taking away the vitality.

Alyssa felt ridiculous about the idea that came to her mind. Although many crew members would call the ship in an anthropomorphic way, it does not mean that it is really alive.

Shaking her head and throwing away unrealistic ideas, Alyssa moved to the operating table of the reactor and tried to restart it.

Restarting the reactor is very troublesome and requires a lot of magic power to start, just like many generators actually need small generators to be powered on to operate normally.

Alyssa first tried the mechanical start on the operating table. If the ship still has backup energy, this operation will be smoother.

But it's gone, nothing.

"Let the mechanic connect the energy transmission pipeline. We are trying to restart the reactor of this ship."

Alyssa notified the Swan, and everyone waited in place for about half an hour. Fang Lanyin sent a message back saying that magic power had been injected.

It was too strenuous to rely on the magic power of the Swan to fully move this ghost ship, but the injected magic power was enough to start the reactor, and it did not need it to work normally. It could operate at low power, and then the ship could restart all the equipment little by little.

Alyssa tried to re-ignite on the operating table. After trying seven or eight times, finally, a rumbling sound came from the reactor, accompanied by a harsh hum.

A faint red light was emitted in the observation window, and the intensity of the light was increasing.

Then there was a series of popping sounds, and the lights in the engine room were turned on one by one. To be more precise, these lights were all on when everything happened, but they were turned off only when there was no energy. Now that the reactor is working again, they are all turned on naturally.

Humans are phototropic animals. They will feel very safe when they are under the light. It can be clearly found that Dui and many crew members are in a much better mental state.

"The reactor is fine, it can still work, you can remove the pipes."

This ship is almost new, it may have been out of the shipyard for less than two years, and the Swan was a second-hand ship given to Vilania after the Storm Kingdom retired.

Then Alyssa took her personal terminal to connect with the terminal under the reactor, and wanted to see if she could communicate with the machine soul of this ship while there was energy now.

But no matter what Alyssa did, the machine soul of this ship did not respond at all.

It was as if it died with it.

Alyssa guessed that there might be a problem with the program of the machine soul because there was no energy for too long, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

"Let's go to the cargo hold next, the door over there should be openable."

First come to the engine room, in addition to checking whether there is any problem, it is to open the energy, otherwise the airlock of the cargo hold is difficult to open, even if Sanafia is extremely powerful, it is impossible to open the airlock by brute force.

As the lights were restored, everyone's faces became much better. Hearing this, everyone was about to leave, and Alyssa's personal terminal immediately beeped.

"I have made a preliminary analysis of the information you just sent me."

Villania said:

"The last navigation record of the ship you were on showed that it seemed to be chased by something. It jumped five or six times in a row, but in the end, it should not have escaped."

"What exactly is it?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure."

Villania's voice was a little confused, but she must have done something to deliberately adjust the communication to a channel that only Alyssa could hear.

"But I think this is similar to what we saw in Black Hand Port."

"You mean, the huge mass of darkness?"

"Well, the information readings are very close, but the scale is much smaller."

When we were in Black Hand Port, there was a huge mass of darkness. If it weren't for the different data, the people in Black Hand Port would have thought it was a black hole.

Its mass is so large that it even caused the colony satellite of Black Hand Port to deviate from its orbit.

"In addition, I found some things. The destination of this ship is the Red Maple Republic, and the consignee is an old acquaintance of you and me. Its presence is everywhere."

Alyssa was slightly startled:

"Molybdenum Group?"

"Exactly."

Alyssa was even more interested in the secret cargo of the Molybdenum Group.

"No more information can be analyzed at the moment. You'd better be careful on the ship. There are too many unknown things."

"Well, I understand. You should also speed up your analysis."

After hanging up the communication, Alyssa waved her hand and motioned for everyone to move on.

The Molybdenum Group has a strong presence in the war between the Red Maple Republic and the Spinning Water Federation, and this unmarked transport ship is obviously transporting secret cargo related to it.

It's really the right time to come here. Not only can we find out what the Molybdenum Group is doing, but it may also give the Xianshui Federation an early warning.

The reactor is now only running at low power, and a lot of debugging is needed to make it work properly, otherwise the reactor will slowly shut down again within a few hours.

But that’s not what Alyssa can do, she won’t.

After the investigation is clear, let Fang Lanyin and a team of mechanics come over. Now Alyssa can't wait to see what's in the warehouse.

Everyone left the engine room through another exit. According to the data given by the Swan scanner, it would not take long for them to arrive at the warehouse after leaving the engine room.

This is similar to a big truck pulling a container. When you come out of the cab, there is a warehouse behind it.

As they gradually approached, the width of the passage gradually became wider, but there seemed to be something wrong with the lights in some places. They flickered, but it didn't hurt.

Soon, everyone stood in front of a huge air-tight door. This transport ship can abandon the cargo hold when necessary, that's why there is such a large air-tight door.

Since there was already energy, Alyssa deciphered the opening code after a few operations at the door. The door made a loud noise, and with the exhaust sound of hydraulic power, the door slowly lifted upwards.

However, almost as soon as the door opened, the energy detector on Alyssa's body sounded a sharp alarm, indicating that Alyssa's negative energy seriously exceeded the standard.

Everyone felt a biting cold at that moment, and even through protective clothing, they seemed to smell a rotten smell.

That's the smell of death.
