Beast Taming: I Can Bestow Entries-Chapter 215: The Wandering Ark Project

"The exploration of the hall is almost complete, shall we check out the other cabins?"

Chen Meng suggested.

"Okay."

Chen Mo nodded.

On the 280th floor of Tentacle Tower No. 2, besides the room where Lord Tiger Shark lives, there are three other rooms of various sizes.

Thanks to Chen Mo’s administrator rights, they could freely enter these three rooms.

Among these rooms, two were similar to Lord Tiger Shark’s room, filled with several hibernation chambers, but the creatures that should be inside were nowhere to be found.

They might have already become one of the skeletons lying on the plaza’s ground.

The largest room, however, was a large laboratory spanning thousands of square meters, filled with research equipment that had long rusted and decayed, and over 30 hibernation chambers.

Chen Mo glanced roughly and found that most of the hibernation chambers were empty, but there were still creatures in 3 of them.

The largest of the hibernation chambers held a giant silver water dragon in slumber, its wing membranes folded in front of it. Besides, there was a giant shell-like structure on the water dragon’s back resembling a snail’s shell.

Like Lord Tiger Shark, this snail water dragon also belonged to the category of Stitched Spiritual Beasts.

The other two hibernation chambers held Half-Mechanical Spirit Beasts of flesh and machine. One of them was a mechanical giant bear covered in yellow paint, with a fierce scar running through its right eye, and its bear paw had retractable claws similar to Wolverine’s, exuding a sense of brutal savagery even in its dormant state.

The final hibernation chamber held a half-mechanical mermaid in slumber.

She had an extremely delicate appearance, her face somewhat youthful, indistinguishable from a young girl’s, with a thin silver-white armor over her chest, while the fish part of her body was purely mechanical.

"Who would have thought that the Cybers civilization had reached such a level with their use of mechanics, creating even Half-Mechanical Spiritual Beasts."

Chen Meng remarked with some emotion.

Technology had advanced to this level, almost indistinguishable from the creator himself, the Cybers could even create a whole new species on their own.

Beside the hibernation chambers of the three Spiritual Beasts was a green button, pressing it would awaken the creatures inside.

Naturally, the two of them had no intention of awakening them, instead, they continued to search the lab for other information.

Soon, Chen Mo noticed three crystal balls emitting a purple glow on an experimental table already speckled with rust marks.

And not far away on the ground was another one.

"Wuu—"

Tuantuan’s eyes, deep blue like the starry sea, revealed a longing for something shiny.

It couldn’t resist the "glittering" objects.

"Sister Meng, what are these?"

"Imaging Crystals. Once activated, they will synchronize with your spirit and record in first-person perspective everything you experience afterward. They capture the imagery, sounds, and even the feelings you had at the time."

Chen Meng explained:

"Put your hand on it, and you can experience the recorder’s memories in first-person perspective. Do you want to try?"

"Mm."

Chen Mo nodded.

He had a strong curiosity about the unknown history.

But first, he needed Chen Meng to do another divination for him.

The cold beauty cast the Heavenly Coin again, and this time the result was neutral.

It meant there was no danger, but also no opportunity.

"Then I’ll start now."

"Wuu~"

"Ying!"

Xiao Jiu and Tuantuan indicated that they wanted to watch together.

"I don’t know if this Imaging Crystal can support multiple viewers at the same time, let’s try it!"

Saying this, Chen Mo placed his palm on the purple Crystal Ball. Then, the Wish-making White Fox put its paw next to Chen Mo, and Tuantuan pressed its entire body against it.

The next second, Chen Mo felt the space in front of him change, and in an instant, he arrived in another time and space.

At the same time, he found himself transformed into a Cybers Researcher, over 2 meters tall.

Cybers people don’t look much different from humans now, but they are generally much taller.

"Wu?" (Master?)

"Ying?" (Where is this?)

Soon, Chen Mo heard Xiao Jiu and Tuantuan’s voices in his heart.

They were also inside this Cybers Researcher’s body, but they couldn’t control the researcher’s body; after all, this was just a recording of the past.

Chen Mo felt it was quite magical.

Isn’t this like a first-person perspective holographic movie that supports multiple viewers?

"Shush, the movie is starting..."

It took Chen Mo a full one and a half hours to finish watching the content stored in the 4 Imaging Crystals.

His eyes were slightly weary, yet his expression was somewhat poignant.

The two little ones, on the other hand, felt the movie was over too soon and found the first-person perspective thrilling.

The content recorded in the Imaging Crystal could probably be summarized in one sentence—A romance between a lovestruck researcher and a wretched Suffering Evil God.

However, Chen Mo also obtained a lot of useful information.

For instance, the reason behind the construction of the Ark and why there were so many bones and mechanical debris in the outer hall and square.

A millennium ago, the High Priest of the Cybers civilization made a prophecy that the Doomsday Era would come again.

The so-called Doomsday Era is the Evil God Era when the projections or even the real bodies of various Evil Gods would descend upon the Spirit Realm, converting powerful beings within into their Believers, providing them with endless faith until death.

The Cybers civilization clearly had a deep understanding of the Evil Gods.

Evil Gods exist in the realm of Spirit, descending upon the material world periodically to reap.

It’s like a shepherd slaughtering the fattened cattle and sheep.

Only a small number of weak Spiritual Beasts or humans would be spared, but they would forget the existence of the Evil Gods under the chaotic power of the Evil Gods.

Then the cycle would repeat.

In an effort to preserve the seeds of civilization for the incoming Doomsday Era, the Cybers started the Ark Project.

They summoned the projection of the Suffering Evil God through a sacrificial ritual and then "captured" and transformed it into what is now the "Ark."

Then, the Ark set sail into the Endless Sea.

The Cybers planned to have all lifeforms aboard the Ark enter hibernation pods just before the arrival of the Doomsday Era, so they wouldn’t produce any emotions. Plus, as the Ark was created from the projection of an Evil God, which is a creature of flesh and blood, it wouldn’t be detected by the Evil Gods.

Evil Gods from the realm of Spirit have no concept of sight. Before descending, they primarily rely on the rules they govern to anchor the existence of beings.

Although they will possess extraordinary sight once they have a body after descending into the Spirit Realm, the depths of the Endless Sea are seldom chosen by the Evil Gods for their descent.

The Cybers planned to use this method to preserve the elite forces of civilization.

The researcher who left behind the Imaging Crystals was fortunate enough to be on Ark 1 due to his outstanding achievements in the field of stitching together Spiritual Beasts and Half-Mechanical Spirit Beasts.

During the two years that the Ark voyaged, he created dozens more stitched together Spiritual Beasts or Half-Mechanical Spirit Beasts.

Then, the melodrama kicked in.

He fell in love with the Mechanical Mermaid he created.
