"A.I. No.1, A.I. No.1…Open the door of this cabin!”
Zhang Heng peeked through the glass door and saw that it was about a hundred square meters. There was a bed and a desk, as well as a few bookshelves and cabinets. It was very luxurious. It must be the captain's lounge, but that was not what made him anxious.
Instead, he saw a square metal box about 50 centimeters long and wide on the desk.
It was entirely silver, and the first feeling it gave him was that it was extraordinary.
Was there something precious inside?
This was the reason why he was anxious.
"Puff!"
With a dull thud, the door opened.
"Captain, this is the captain's lounge!”The A.I. No. 1 also spoke.
"I guessed right!"
Zhang Heng replied casually. He was a little anxious and rushed to his desk."A.I. No. 1…Do you know what that metal box is? What's inside?"
"Captain, other than the public areas, AI programs are not allowed to spy on the living areas of the ship!”
A.I. No. 1 said solemnly before adding," Especially the captain's resting cabin. You are now the captain of the mining ship, which is the highest level of command. Otherwise, as an intelligent program, you have no right to open the access control of any private space cabin in the living area.”
"Oh…"
Zhang Heng roughly understood that it was to give the crew as much privacy as possible."Wait, I'll return to the captain's cockpit immediately.”
He did not act rashly and observed first.
Then, he slowly moved his hand and gently stroked it. When his skin came into contact with the metal box, he felt a chill. Other than that, there was nothing unusual.
Only then did he feel relieved.
He first pushed it on the desk, but there was still nothing unusual. Finally, he pushed it to the edge of the office and raised his hands.
He exerted force and lifted the metal box.
The next moment!
"F * ck…"
Zhang Heng was prepared for this, but he still did not expect it to happen. His hands were pulled down by the weight of the metal box."Damn it…It's at least 100 pounds. It's just such a small box.”
He took a few deep breaths. He had spent a lot of effort just now. He used all his strength to lift and push the metal box back onto the desk.
"I don't believe that I can't get you into the captain's cockpit.”
Zhang Heng was getting more and more excited about the metal box. It was only a few hundred pounds, and as long as he could lift it, he could get it out. He was not the kind of spoiled rich kid who did not know how to eat.
When he was young, he had been running around in the fields of the village. When he was older, he would go to the fields to fetch water and herd cattle. It had occupied most of his childhood.
When he was in middle school, he would go out to sea with his parents on weekends and drive a small bamboo raft fishing boat to fish in the coastal waters.
"Ha!"
With a loud shout and sufficient preparation, he finally lifted the metal box.
He crossed his hands and interlocked his ten fingers, half-lifting and half-hugging the metal box.
His footsteps were steady and extremely slow, almost as if he was walking step by step.
After spending a lot of effort, he finally left the captain's lounge. He found a place to change his strength and walked out of the living quarters with difficulty.
"This, this is…this is Devouring Gold?"
The AI-1 was everywhere. In theory, it could reach any area of the mining ship, except for the limited living quarters."Captain, this is Devouring Metal, a very powerful metal!”
"Cut the crap…Hurry up and help me teleport to the captain's cockpit!”Zhang Heng was furious.
"Whoosh!"
In the next second, his arms were empty and his hands became light.
However, at this moment, he could not even feel that his hands were his. After a while, he felt a little numb.
"Damn it, I'm so embarrassed!"
Zhang Heng cursed in a low voice, losing face in front of the AI program. Fortunately, there was no one else present. Still, he was thick-skinned enough to shake his hands and relax. He then took two steps and quickly headed for the captain's cockpit."What's Metal Devouring?"
"It's a very powerful super metal. I seem to have records of it in my database, but there's a missing part. It records that in an unknown galaxy far away, a mineral planet was discovered. The entire planet was made of a special metal.”
A.I. Number One first gave a background introduction, then said,""After mining, there were many material experts who studied it together. In the end, it was named Devouring Gold. Its full name is Devouring Metal.”
"It has many characteristics. The most special characteristic is that it can devour light, sound, and air. At the same time, it can also devour metal. Apart from these characteristics, Metal Devouring was also a magical metal. For example, its hardness was the hardest among all the natural metals discovered.”
"Also…Captain, the records in the database are unknown.”
The A.I. No. 1 was probably in a daze and did not notice that it was gone.
"The database is damaged!"
Zhang Heng had already guessed that it was because of the data loss, but he had a certain level of understanding of Metal Devouring."I think this box made from Metal Devouring looks more like a safe. There should be something inside.”
"A.I. No.1…Do you know what it is?”Zhang Heng asked.
