Chapter 32 Utility Knife

The maintenance compartment is rarely opened, and the normally closed door was last inspected three hundred and forty-two weeks ago. Alex pressed his thumb hard on the touch pad, and the control system took a deep breath with an "incredible" emotion.

After taking a breath, I tried to revive myself.

"The starship is in combat status and the emergency system is allowed to be used. The door is opening, please wait..."

It was a metal door large enough for five people to pass through in parallel. The thick telescopic rod was used to resist sudden impacts, and the tooth structure at the door frame and the door gap was used to offset the continuous pressure. As part of the emergency system, various types of devices were installed on both sides of the door.

There are sensors and even weapons systems that are usually hidden around you, because invasion and riots are also emergencies.

You must be careful when opening any door on a space starship, because you don't know what kind of environment is outside the door. Alex has to wait. He has to wait for the system to detect the situation on the other side of the door and turn on or adjust the artificial gravity.

Replace the appropriate air, eliminate harmful radiation, and conduct self-tests of all environmental support and monitoring systems. Wait until everything is completed before the door can be opened.

"Okay, the door is finally open." Alex looked at the metal door with his fangs loosened and his mouth slightly open, trying to draw Xiaoxiao's attention to it and ignore the shrill screams behind him that were gradually getting away. "

Once we enter the passage, we have completed almost half of the journey, wait..."

Before he finished speaking, the door suddenly stopped opening, and with a gradually deepening sigh, they were left with only a 40-centimeter gap. Immediately afterwards, all the surrounding systems were disconnected, just like a person suddenly

As if in a deep sleep. Energy is still running in the pipes, and the system is still maintaining the survival of the starship according to inertia, but they have completely lost response to the outside world.

Alex tried to pull the door, and then confirmed that no arm strength of several tons could accomplish such a feat. Then he put his hand on the touch pad, and the brain control body issued the command, but the access control system could only return an "invalid command"

"Answer.

"What's going on?" Alex touched the back of his head, and the brain control body reported to him that the entire ship's ordinary network communications had stopped, and the system that maintained environmental stability was working at its lowest state. Analyzing the status of the system, it can be confirmed

The zero-order world does not reply to messages. Only the computing power network is still running at full capacity. There may be useful information on it. Accessing the computing power network is not something you can do with a slap on the back of the head. You need to use special connection equipment.

, such as the two-hand touch controls and communication and cooling neck rings on the walls of his room. But even if there is a device that can connect, Alex will not connect himself to it.

"Change the route?" Alex used the mask communicator to re-plan the route. Although the network was disconnected, the offline map was still there. Considering that all systems may be unstable, after ruling out the use of transportation,

There are only three options left: climbing with bare hands, flying all over the sky, and taking a 40-minute detour.

There was a sudden explosion in the distance, accompanied by continuous dazzling flashes, and it was obviously full of danger. Alex was unarmed and had no desire to return to the battlefield. "Brain-controlled body, can you call upon the Evolver H starship?"

Use the design drawing to search for the information about this door?"

---Executing command.---

Wait, it's not executed immediately, just... Alex felt his brain was hot, and two nosebleeds spurted out immediately, dyeing the bubble helmet of the researcher's protective suit red. He had a splitting headache, and felt like the world was spinning, and his body

He fell to the ground in violent convulsions, shaking and bouncing crazily like a fish thrown on the shore.

"Mr. Alex, what's wrong with you?!" Xiaoxiao rushed forward and used all her strength to turn him into a side-lying position. "Breathe! Keep breathing! If there is something, spit it out, I won't let him

You choked!"

It used its small body to press Alex hard, and found the button of his protective suit helmet amidst the constant bumps and shaking, pressed it and lifted it up, exposing Alex's head. Then Xiaoxiao wiped it with her hands

Remove the bloody foam from Alex's head and try to keep him breathing.

"Don't die!" Xiaoxiao was busy crying.

Fortunately, this kind of impact on computing power came and went quickly. After hitting the bottleneck, the brain-controlled body had to stop and restart while cooling down. Smoke curled up from the back of Alex's head, and the skin around his neck

The sweat beads were dried quickly. Upon seeing this, the little fox quickly took out a small water bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the lid and poured it in. With a sizzling sound, the brain-controlled body cooled down rapidly, and Alex also slowly

Wake up.

"Thank you, I'm alive. Give me some water to drink."

"You can't drink this. There's medicine in it, from the raccoon star." The little fox wanted to wipe away the tears, but his fingers hit the helmet with a bang. It was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You want to drink water, I'll go

Looking for it for you?"

"Don't, don't run around." Alex was lying on the ground, and his body clearly felt the continuous vibrations caused by the explosion in the distance, which showed that the surroundings were still dangerous. He stretched out his arms and sat up under the strong pull of the little fox.

Then he took out the legion juice from the pocket of his pants and took two sips. The smell of his own blood rushed into his nose and mouth. It was uncomfortable, but it was better than being unconscious after death.

"What happened to you just now? Are you okay? I've never seen a composite evolved person behave like this."

"The collapse caused by insufficient computing power paid a price." Alex took a few sips of Legion juice and felt better, so he took out his sister's chocolate. He took a few breaths and then said: "Although

It's a little dangerous, but it's not without its rewards: at least I know how to open the door."

The little fox's eyes lit up, he shook away the tears from his eyes, and asked eagerly: "What should I do?"

"According to the design drawing, this Pac87 isolation door has two sides AB. On the opposite side, on the right hand side facing the door, you can find a blue pipe with the words 'Internal Pressure Explosion Proof' written on it. Find that pipe

All the way down, you will find a manual switch at the base of the door. It is a set of pull rods. Move the only pull rod from left to right, and the pressure in the blue pipe can open the door. It is all mechanical.

Method, no electronic control system is required - as long as it can be drilled through."

Xiaoxiao looked at the gap in the door, and then nodded: "I'll go over and look for the lever. I'm not afraid of the dark! But can you say it again?"

Alex said again. He noticed that the little fox tried to make a determined expression, but still showed a trace of timidity and nervousness, just like a child. Several times, it wanted to touch his own

The face and fingers were blocked by the helmet, which showed that it had not adapted to wearing a helmet. When I thought that the little fox might just be a novice like myself, it was now facing a dangerous situation, and it was still a child.

"be careful."

"Wait for me!" Xiaoxiao hugged Alex gently, then plucked up the courage to squeeze into the gap of the door sideways. It kept saying "don't close, don't close" in its mouth, and at the same time clamped its tail hard to reduce the

Scratch.

The isolation door was four meters thick, comparable to a city wall. After the little fox got through, Alex could no longer see it. The engineering maintenance compartment was pitch dark, and when no composite evolved human was detected, the lights

It would not start. Alex could only listen and try to distinguish the little fox's cry on the other side. It should have found the pressure pipe and was following it to find the manual switch.

I hope it will hurry up. Alex sighed, turned around, and leaned against the door. At this time, a red light flew past from a distance, like a lost fireworks. Alex didn't

I felt something strange until the red light returned and was suspended at the other end of the twenty-meter passage.

It was a red glowing head with a cynical face. The withered appearance and the bald top of the head together looked like a skeleton, but the pair of red and purple eyes did not look like a dead person, but a human being.

Bad guy.

From the head downwards, a body continues to grow, and the body is covered by metallic armor, and the surface of the armor is covered with various electronic devices. Because Alex has full research experience in the advancement of brain-controlled bodies

, the first time he saw those electronic devices, he had the feeling that "those are not many brain-controlled bodies."

The person who comes is not good, that is a "Natural Chosen One". Alex is not connected to the computing power network, so he does not know this name, so he calls it straightforwardly based on the characteristics of its head first, then its body, and always suspended.

It is the "Red Ghost". From the perspective of a composite evolved human being, when faced with the unknown in the universe, it is generally not wrong to regard it as a threat first. The Red Ghost just grew its body and walked into the passage.

Move up the gentle stairs towards Alex.

"This?" Alex stood up holding the door with his hand, and immediately activated the engineer repair kit. The tool printer buzzed, and the nozzle started working, using the reserved molecular powder to weave a handy tool: a cutting knife. It

Although it couldn't cut through battleships, ordinary steel was no problem. Alex used his brain control body to input the design drawings and extended the handle of the cutting knife until he printed himself a machete with a spear style.

In a hurry, he couldn't care whether this thing was more of a machete or a spear. Anyway, Alex only needed three elements: simplicity, long range, and enough to scare people. He held the long machete in both hands, feeling a little more at ease than before.

Although the biggest weapon he has ever wielded in his life is a large broom for sweeping the yard, and he doesn't know if weapons in close combat are still meaningful in this space age and whether they can break through defenses, at least he is not waiting to die, at least he has a weapon in his hand.

, there is a spirit of resistance in my heart.

The red ghost paused for a moment, and then laughed loudly. It was a kind of laughter that made several holes in a large balloon. Maybe it was more like a fart or a laugh. It just felt weird and crazy. Then

, it said in a condescending tone: "You are eliminated!"

"Us?" Alex looked back and said, "There's only me here, not you."

He concealed the fact that the little fox existed, and even hoped that the little fox would not come back and run away. It was better to pull the wrong lever and close the door. The red ghost was obviously the enemy, and the faceless man did not appear, so he had probably been killed. He might be the one.

Next, but you can't let it find the little fox. So Alex did not stand still, but rushed forward with a machete in his hand.

The red ghost's laughter became even louder. It stood still and waited patiently. There was only a long and narrow passage between it and Alex, which was an alleyway in the apartment area. There were no branches, no side doors, no

Other options. It completely ignores that ridiculous utility knife, knowing that the Faceless Man's gravity gun might be able to delay it for a while, but a cable-cutting knife printed out of a Class B toolbox?

It focused all its attention on the idiot-like Composite Evolved Chopper, so it didn't hear the wind. But to be honest, it was too late to hear the wind. A destroyer fell down and smashed the Evolved H starship.

The protective layer in front of him plunged into the apartment area at dozens of times the speed of sound. Alex felt something flash in front of him, and then half of the corridor and the complex evolved human apartment in front of him disappeared, and the red ghost was instantly shattered.

, was carried by a metal storm and fell down.

The whistling sound came along with the shock wave. They were stronger and earlier than the decompressed wind, and they blew Alex out first. Behind him, the isolation door opened quickly, letting him fall in. And

The detection device of the isolation door sensed the danger, and it automatically turned on the emergency isolation mode without asking for instructions from the Internet. Therefore, before the explosion, combustion, loss of pressure, and radiation from the sun outside came, the door closed instantly with a bang, killing Eric.
