Chapter 154 - light tooth

As Zero walked forward, more and more corpses appeared on the path. The corpses were all wearing the same tactical uniform. It was obvious that they were colleagues. However, the traces left behind at the scene were proof of the fact that they were in the same boat.

Zero could see the marks of energy slicing on the cracks on the wall. Each of those finger-sized holes was caused by the destruction of the energy beam. The bores of these bullet holes are smooth and show signs of carbonization. If it wasn't an energy-tier weapon, it wouldn't have caused this kind of result, not to mention the fact that even half of the warheads on the ground didn't have this kind of effect. As for the corpses on the ground, all of them held strange weapons that had never been seen before.

It was a beam weapon shaped like a rectangular metal box. It had been picked up from a dead body. It was unknown what type of metal these firearms were made of, but the weight of Zero in his hand was extremely light, it was only equivalent to the alloy military knife on the outside of his thigh. Although the beam rifle had a rifle butt that was similar to a modern weapon, Zero could not find the trigger nor did he know how it was fired.

However, the body of the spear was also embedded with a fist-sized crystal stone. That should be the beam weapon's energy source system. Near the crystal and the ship's hull were engraved lines, which extended from thin to dense to the point of the gun. If there were no mishaps, these engravings would act as an energy conduction function. The beam rifle was supplied with energy by the crystal, and was then transmitted and compressed by the engraving. Finally, it was fired in an unknown manner to achieve the effect of killing.

From the numerous bullet holes on the passageway, it could be seen that this beam weapon also possessed the high-frequency firing ability. If it was used in combat now, it would cause unimaginable damage.

Unfortunately, the crystal on the spear had already shattered. Even if he could figure out how to fire it, he probably wouldn't have the energy to do so.

Zero continued forward.

Crystals, light energy, biomimetic technology. These were the scientific and technological subjects of this civilization. Zero could imagine that the world that civilization existed in must be very clean and natural. Compared to the turbulent times of today, it was no different from heaven.

If their civilization could be promoted in the current world, perhaps Earth could regain its former appearance. However, Zero also knows that the ugliness of human nature is more likely to be due to the development of light powered mass murder weapons. At that time, it would just hasten the destruction of the world.

He did not intend to be a savior, but neither did he want the planet he had to live on to be destroyed by the unbridled ambition of some war maniac. As such, it was better to have the spaceship in his hands, even if Zero did not have the ability to discover the technology of this civilization.

In the blink of an eye, Zero had reached the end. A wall of pipes blocked his path. In the middle of the wall, there was a crystal the size of a blue ball. The crystal was shaped like a hexagonal beehive. If the blue light from the pipes didn't flow into the crystal, it would emit a blue flame, like a bright firework under the night sky.

Zero put his hand on the crystal. The crystal's surface was not as hard as he had imagined, but it was a bit soft, causing Zero's hand to sink in a bit.

When Zero pulled out his hand, the crystal left a light palm print. The palm print quickly dissipated, turning into countless tiny specks of light, like tadpoles, that drilled into the crystal's body. They were arranged in a certain order, as if the computer were doing some kind of calculation. Soon, the wall behind the crystal stone began to roll like water. They quickly dispersed, opening a door for Zero to enter the control room.

Zero walked past the crystal floating in mid air. When he entered the control room, the space closed again, leaving no trace behind.

At this moment, Zero was standing on the platform indicated by the screen of light. There was only one table and one chair on the platform, which was obviously the captain's seat. Beneath the stage was a "concave" operation area. But whether it was the captain or the operator, all they had left were corpses, lying or sitting.

Turn the captain's chair over, against a tall corpse. The corpse was similarly skeletal, but as the chair rotated, the corpse's head fell off. As soon as it touched the ground, it crumbled to dust. Then Zero noticed that the corpse's right hand was holding something that looked like a knife handle. He tried to pry open the corpse's fingers, but the moment he touched it, the bones that were wrapped in the tactical suit would be shattered into dust.

The gloves without the bones to support them hung limply, and the hilt of the knife in his hand also fell to the ground.

Zero picked it up. The metal of the handle was similar to the beam rifle seen outside. The quality was very light. There was a thumb-sized crystal embedded at the end of the blade. There was no light in this crystal, but it was not cracked. Judging from the structure of the hilt, it was clearly a light weapons. However, there was no energy filling the crystal. After thinking for a moment, his hand that held the saber glowed with a crimson light. That was the energy of the fire element.

Following the method of injecting fire into a bullet, he used his will to control the energy to pour it into the crystal on the handle of the blade. Immediately, the crystal shone with a red light. But soon, the red light turned blue, and in the next moment, with a "chi" sound, an energy blade of about twenty centimeters long shot out from the front of the handle. The blade lightly trembled, but the energy that didn't actually form the blade vibrated at an extremely fast speed, causing the blade's energy to be able to cut through any known material.

Looking at the headless body, Zero could imagine the owner of the lightsaber committing suicide with it. The sharpness of the energy blade, however, caused his throat to be cut off at the same time as his neck was cut. From this, it could be imagined how sharp the Light Dagger was. It was just like the fangs of light!

After all, Zero only had a single level of attainment with regards to the fire element, so the amount of energy it could control was pitifully small. After about ten seconds, the energy blade disappeared into thin air, leaving only a small amount of heat.

But Zero was very fond of it. At least it was a light weapon that he could use. Not only could these crystals absorb and store energy, they could also convert other properties of light into energy that could be used. This allowed anyone with elemental domain abilities to use them. Zero was glad that he stole the power of this rank 1 fire element from Saurun. The appearance of this light weapon allowed him to maximize the effect of this ability.

Light Tooth. This was the name that Zero had given to this Light Dagger. That stance of his, which was as sharp as the fangs of light, left a deep impression on Zero. It is innumerable, but before long, it will become known to this world because of zero!

Zero carefully put away the Light Tooth and jumped off the platform. The blue light on the walls of the control room flowed unceasingly. It was obvious that the stored energy was still working. No matter what, Zero had to try and activate the spaceship. At the very least, let it take him out of the underground space under the fissure.
