Chapter 1467 Opening the Warehouse

People are very sensitive to the smell of putrid corpses, which is completely different from the smell of rotting food or feces.

In the primitive period, this ability allowed people to avoid danger. The fear gene present in the DNA was instantly awakened by the smell.

But Alyssa and the others are now wearing heavy-duty protective suits, which are fully fitted around the neck, and they all wear helmets. It stands to reason that even if they fart in the protective suits, they can't smell it, let alone smell the rotten smell outside. Taste.

But everyone actually smelled it, or felt like they smelled it.

This is the smell of death. Its presence is so powerful that it cannot be perceived through simple sensory organs. It is like directly ravaging the nerves of mortals. It doesn't matter whether you can smell it or not, and it doesn't even matter whether you have a nose or not.

Alyssa motioned for everyone to turn on the lights on the masks, and also checked the airtightness of the protective clothing. There was nothing wrong with it.

What she sees next is likely to be something that common sense cannot explain, and Alyssa has already made psychological expectations.

"Let's move forward and prepare our weapons. This place is different from just now."

The soldiers swallowed their saliva, set up their guns one after another, and cooperated with their teammates to aim at every corner.

Entering the airlock door, the first thing that comes into view is a large number of containers fixed to the ground with steel cables.

After all, it is a cargo ship, so it is natural for it to have a large number of containers.

However, the stacking of these containers is not neat, but scattered, some are high and some are low, and the channels flowing out between the containers are not straight. It feels like walking into a maze made of containers.

Of course, normal cargo ships would not be stacked like this, and it would be inconvenient for unloading and inspection.

If the fastening hooks of these containers were not still intact, Alyssa even began to wonder if there was some kind of huge monster building a nest in the containers.

The cargo warehouse is the widest and largest part of the transport ship. The containers are stacked so high that sometimes you have to look up hard to see the top.

The lighting in the cargo hold also seems a little bad. This may be because the cargo hold is a disposable structure and there is a problem with the energy pipeline connection inside the hull. It may also be because the reactor has not yet reached normal working condition.

The lights come and go, flickering on and off, and everyone mainly relies on the built-in lights on their chests and heads to see.

This also caused the light to shine on the container, drawing long and thin shadows.

The strong putrid smell has disappeared, or it can't be smelled due to the barrier of protective clothing, but everyone's heart feels like there is a stone pressing on it.

Since there is no artificial gravity, everyone can only float forward. The surroundings are quiet. The only sounds that can be heard are the subtle mosquito sounds coming from the earphones and the negative energy warning issued by the detector Alyssa carries. .

They carefully followed the gap between the containers for about ten minutes. At this time, Viola saw a blue glimmer not far ahead.

This light is so weak that it can only be caught by the naked eye when the lights in the warehouse are turned off and the surroundings are dark.

Continuing to move forward, Lieutenant Cao Wei, who was opening the way in front, said in a trembling voice:

"Humanoid target found!"

Everyone's nerves were immediately aroused. Cao Wei pointed the gun in a certain direction and looked at it for a while:

"It's unresponsive."

"Try shouting first. If that doesn't work, try shooting."

The scanner showed that there was no life on the ship, and what Cao Wei saw might be a corpse.

So Cao Wei followed Alyssa's instructions, turned on the external speaker, shouted a few words, and when there was no response, she aimed diagonally upward and pulled the trigger.

The laser swept over briefly, and after waiting for a moment, Cao Wei said:

"That should be a corpse."

"Don't be careless. The negative energy here is too high. Even corpses may be resurrected."

The conditions for the formation of undead creatures are very simple: sufficient negative energy, no periodic exposure to sunlight, and corpses.

Undead creatures can appear if three conditions are met, and the cabin is obviously suitable.

The team continued to move forward, and Alyssa, who was in the center of the team, saw what the humanoid target Cao Wei was talking about.

It was a man wearing a red tattered robe. He was sitting on the top of three containers, his head lowered, facing the people who came in.

There were still a few smoking holes on the tattered red robe, which should have been made by the laser gun just now.

"Isn't this a member of the Glow Ion Monastery?"

Alyssa didn't know them before. She had only heard of this name from Li Chengqi, but since diving into the devil, her memory of this group of people was so profound.

Alyssa took out the handheld scanner and scanned the body diagonally above.

Sure enough, this is already a corpse, and his mechanized transformation rate has already exceeded 60%. This is the standard operation of the Glow Ion Monastery. Most of them can no longer be regarded as human beings.

After working on it for a long time, this ship belongs to the Glow Ion Monastery?

But didn’t it say that the recipient of the goods was Molybdenum Group?

Is there any connection between these two organizations?

If so, what exactly are they transporting?

A series of questions popped up in Alyssa's mind.

Unfortunately, they did not bring a cutting machine or password, so they could not open these containers for the time being.

And Alyssa had a strong hunch that moving forward was more important than opening these containers.

Everyone continued to move forward in the direction of the light blue light, carefully, trying not to make any sound.

As the distance got closer, everyone saw more and more corpses appearing in the container, even above their heads or in front of them, floating aimlessly in the microgravity environment.

Due to the shutdown of the reactor, although there was still thin air in the cabin, the temperature was extremely low. These corpses had been frozen, but this also prevented them from decaying and still maintained their appearance before death.

Almost all the corpses were covered with red robes, and the mechanization transformation rate exceeded 60%. Alyssa also found holy emblems on the necks of these people, which was exactly the same as the Glow Ion Hermitage.

And their cause of death was even more puzzling.

These people turned out to turn off their own life support systems and committed suicide.

Simply put, their hearts were transformed into machines, and they stopped their hearts from beating with their own will.

This way of death is almost painless and will not leave any external injuries. They will lose consciousness in a very short time and eventually fall into eternal sleep.

Why choose suicide?

Why did these people gather in the warehouse?

What exactly happened to them?

A voice in Alyssa's heart seemed to say, you shouldn't explore these things, go back quickly.

But her reason said, I need to figure it all out!

In the end, reason overcame instinct, and Alyssa signaled everyone to move forward.

As more and more corpses appeared around, and they were getting closer and closer to the blue light they had seen before, Alyssa felt that she should be about to find the answer.
