Chapter 332 New Building

Within the space of three hours, this became Bernard's routine, it was not like he didn't spot any demon beast but before the demon beast would be able to get closer to inspect what they saw he would have already zoomed off.

Making these beasts think they were just seeing things since he was in the shadows Bernard was able to get a better look at where he was and what path to take by just looking, all he needed was a glance to determine if there was a contact device or not, and so far it was either it was already destroyed by beasts or it wasn't there at all.

Bernard couldn't help but frown, to be honest, with no direction of what he was looking for and simply just wandering around aimlessly, it was beginning to get on his nerves, if he said he wasn't affected then he would simply be lying to himself, not only was it getting on his nerves he was also beginning to get frustrated, it was as if he was searching for the impossible.

Of course, he had long accepted it would be anything but easy to locate the contact device, but his situation was making him lose all hopes of finding it, it wasn't because he wasn't patient or trying his best to look for it, rather it was simply because he was running out of life and didn't have more time to waste since he only had 12 hours left.

[First life:11/55 Hp]

Oh to be precise 11 fucking hours left, what's worse not only was his hunger increasing and was distracting him, but he was getting more sleepy as time went on, on one hand, was the fact he was hungry and on the other was the fact he was sleepy, even if he wanted to ignore the other he couldn't do so for the other one, at this moment his mind was being assaulted from both sides with hunger and sleep, it was even beginning to affect his movement as well.

He also noticed that with each moment, second, and minute that passed by, he became more hungry and sleepy. Bernard couldn't help but rub both his eyes, in order to stay focused as he ignored the hunger in his stomach.

Eventually, as he was rubbing his eyes, he squinted his eyes as he looked ahead of him, he couldn't help but wonder if it was just his imagination or not, because right in front of him he could see a building not only were there lesser crevices there were lesser shriveled plants around it.

After he was sure, he wasn't seeing things he couldn't help but be surprised, he noticed the building was not only big but it was also like a large dome, as he looked at it Bernard wondered what the building was and if it would contain the contact device he was looking for in it, what's more, he also couldn't see any magical/demon beasts outside making him even more surprise.

The walls of the buildings were made with nanoparticles, not only was it able to regenerate any parts even if it was blown off it was also able very strong as well Bernard couldn't help but think, the reason he thought so was quite simple because he had seen it before back then in the academy assembly hall, so he was pretty sure it was the same thing.

Bernard realized this was the first time he was seeing a building made with nanoparticles most of what he had seen were just made with special and strong material, however, none of them were as unique as the nanoparticles in front of him. Bernard wondered if it was because the walls were made of nanoparticles, was why it hadn't been destroyed like other buildings he had seen, or if it was simply something else.

'Although the walls are a bit old, nevertheless, they are still nanoparticles. I guess even if demon beasts had attacked the walls, it must have regenerated over and over until the demon beasts grew tired and left, 'Bernard thought inwardly, as he kept feeling the intricate design of the walls.

Judging from what he could see, he could tell the contact device he was looking for was inside somewhere, after all, it was the only place he had seen so far that looked normal and where there was no demon beast around, even the walls although old but was still sturdy, this meant if a demon beast was to attack it still wouldn't bulge or break until it was probably old.

After he was done inspecting it, Bernard then proceeded to get closer to the building as he got closer he noticed several mechanical suites that were simply abandoned, however, that wasn't all because he noticed that they weren't exactly abandoned rather they were destroyed by something, like the people who had once worn them seemed to have been guarding the buildings since the mechanical suits were stationed outside the building.

As he inspected them, he noticed the suits had dried blood on them, and what's more, the helmet had been ripped out of the suits.

At least according to what he knew, mechanical suits were said to be one of the military strongest fighting machines, not only were they easily usable they could also shrink to the size of a fingernail, and one wouldn't notice it even if a person was carrying it, thanks to the nano material used on it.

Even during the war, many soldiers who were cannon fodders were no longer cannon fodder because of the mechanical suites, the reason it was possible in the first place was that, the material used in making it wasn't ordinary but rather it was made out of magical/demon beasts corpses, although they couldn't be compared to a beast weapon or even a beast gear, it was still something that had helped in the war against the celestials.

Compared to beast weapons that were forged with both the corpse and crystal of a beast, a mechanical suit instead was like a jack of all trades since different material together with a beast corpse was mixed in it during production.

Even the powering of it was none other than a beast crystal since after several experiments it was realized that no other material was as good and powerful as a beast crystal even in terms of the amount of energy it could produce.

Bernard wondered what happened there, after all, he couldn't see any corpse around or even inside the mechanical suit. It was like whoever that was using the suit had either managed to run with the help of someone or their corpses were simply taken away.

It could be either of those two, regardless, they were likely doing something before they were attacked by someone or thing, what if they were invaded by another force he couldn't help but think, why did he think so?

It was simply because it was the most talked about topic, besides that the reason he thought so was simply everything was strange, the academy didn't have only mech users.

They also had symbiote users as well, which was their strongest driving force, even though mechanical suites were often used but symbiote users were more preferred, the reason he was still going on about it was likely because whatever seemed to have occurred on this planet was big, otherwise they wouldn't have been abandoned.

If they were attacked by another force the academy would have already announced it to the students or even used it as a reference, like they use the war with the celestial, and even the aboriginals that had not invaded them yet, of course if the loss was too great they wouldn't want to talk about it, after all, making of mechanical suites were anything but cheap just the fact they needed to catch strong beasts and mixed in several materials to produce them already speaks for itself.

Although compared to beast weapons, mechanical suites could easily be used most people still preferred beast weapons, it wasn't that they weren't powerful but beast weapons were said to be the only thing that could rival symbiote bloodlines.

However, there were still lots of people that used it, these people were none other than explorers, but lower-level explorers. Since not everyone had strong symbiote bloodlines and only had a knack for history they would choose to get mechanical suites instead of beast weapons, because a full set of beasts was what more than a hundred mechanical suits and stronger as well, especially for a strong one.

Usually, most people that wanted to become explorers would throw themselves at private organizations, since the military already had bad records of misusing and mistreating people, so these explorers preferred to work for these private organizations that treated them well.

If a person could successfully become an explorer, even if it was just a lower level they would be given a mechanical suit but then it wasn't free, rather they would sign a contract with the organization.

These contracts contain both the duration the person would work as well as the mechanical suites they were given. If the mechanical suit was ever lost or destroyed then the person would have to pay them back.

Although there have been cases of mechanical suites being destroyed or lost, but then compared to the treatment of the military and private organizations it was like heaven and earth, not only would you pay them back in full you would also work your ass off while being treated like a slave.
