287 [Last Week's Bonus Chapter]Crazy Finds Part 1
“Thank you, X7.” I gave my thanks. He had helped some of my worries.
“It is my pleasure to be of assistance. But if I may ask. When you said you would take me from this place, were you telling the truth?” X7 seemed to be more sentient than I had thought. Maybe the many years of loneliness had gotten to him, so he had learned to gain a bit of self awareness.
“Yes, I would not lie. I see no point in you continuing to stay here. I will only store your way in my inventory for a short time, and when I return home, you will be given your own room and can do as you please. If you want a job, I can even find you a job.” I replied. I had no idea how its programming worked, but if it was asking me something not in its normal programming, then this was good.
“Then I will take you up on the offer as no humans resided in this place,” X7 replied.
I smiled and held out my hand to him: ” Then take my hand. I will store you in my inventory now.”
X7 reached out and grabbed my hand, and then disappeared. I turned and looked at everyone who was staring at me in shock. “Faith, did you just teleport him someplace?! And what was that strange language you were speaking!?” Adel suddenly bombarded me with questions.
“I was speaking a language from Earth, called english. It was one of the most common tongues spoken on the planet. And no, I did not teleport him anywhere. I just put him in my space as he was not real. But what is called an android or robot? A life form created with technology.” I tried to explain, but it was hard when the concept of a robot was not really a thing here.
“Your old world was crazy….” Sally said while holding her head. I guess this was all too much for her.
“This kind of technology was not something the world I came from could produce yet. This whole area is in a future time frame from when I lived there. Or it could come from a different parallel universe. Remember how the Atlanteans had appeared in the same time frame as when I was alive before on the previous floor? But that was not my world. So this world and that were different, and this one and the world with the Atlanteans might be different as well.” I explained lightly.
“So, in other words, your old world was crazy!” Sally repeated herself, causing us to chuckle.
“Let’s just leave it at that. Anyway, let’s begin our search. I want to see what the note says that my father left behind.” I walked over to the desk to see many new things that I did not recognize, but they looked like they might be useful, so I stored them into my space. It took a minute, but I did find the note that my father had left for me.
‘Faith if you are reading this. Then that means one of two things. You found out about me from the weird non-life form, or you just walked past it and found the note anyway. Either way, we will meet at the end of the dungeon. Stay safe.’
I smiled and kept the note. He seemed determined to investigate this dungeon thoroughly but what I did not understand was if he was clearing all the floors of monsters, then how was he defeating them? Was he hiding some kind of secret? Or was the spell he got from the information he found so powerful that it was able to disregard the level difference? Well, I guess as long as he is okay.
We searched every floor. But I really couldn’t find anything like a newspaper to give me any kinds of dates or times, so I could only hope that the devices I had been picking up would have something for me to look at.
But when we reached the tenth basement floor, I finally found something very interesting. “It’s huge!”
It was indeed huge. To me, it looked like a spaceship, but I could be wrong. But I knew one thing and that was I wanted to investigate it and see how it ticked. “Gather everything in this room. I will store it away. If we can replicate this ship at some point, the security of the kingdom will be safe for many many years.”
The ship in question was at least one thousand feet in length and at least four hundred feet tall. It was a huge machine that had a width of at least another five hundred feet. If such a thing was replicated with magic and had magic based weapons and defenses, it would be basically unstoppable. If my dreams were true and war was eventually coming with people like Azengrade, then I wanted to make sure that I could easily defend my homeland. And technology like this was going to be needed, because I was only one person. Even if I summoned every high ranking demon, there was no telling if we would still win, so the more things we had to fight with, the better.
It took many hours, but we finally collected everything and stored it away. What was left was nothing but a barren room and a bunch of cables leading to some kind of power source. And this power source was next on my list of things to find. “Everyone, let’s search for the power source in this place. But do not go near it until I have used Appraisal on it.”
“You plan to take the power source as well?” Sophie asked.
“Mmm… I mean, why not, right? A power source that may not use mana, or if it does use mana, it is a power source that is magic and technology combined. And one that seems infinite to be powering the place for so long.” I never expected that I would be diving into a dungeon and walking out with advanced technology. It was better for me to take it now than having someone else get their hands on it. Like, let’s say Azengrade.
