Chapter 493: Small Gear's Interstellar Scavenging Log
[Wasteland Beginning: Gears and Law Fragments]
When the consciousness of the small gear (No. 11) fell into the interstellar wasteland, the system panel popped up not the welcome interface, but a line of flashing red alerts:
[Warning! The host's landing site is an "old-era nuclear waste site." The radiation level has exceeded the standard by 300%. Please immediately collect 10 tons of recyclable metal to build a radiation shelter. The time limit is 24 hours. Failure will trigger "data formatting."]
It stood on the rusted wreckage of a starship, its gold-type ability (mutated version) instinctively reaching into the metal cracks, its fingertips touching a gear embedded with blue light - that was the control module of the old-era "hyperspace engine".
The system suddenly reported an error:
[Detected "Fragments of Lost Technology Laws". Do you want to consume 100 points of system energy to analyze it?]
The small gear decisively chose "Yes" and activated its special ability to melt the surrounding scrap metal into liquid. It used nano-detectors to screen out lead alloys and built a radiation-proof dome in 23 hours and 59 minutes.
When the first wisp of nuclear radiation dust fell on the dome, the system prompt sounded with an electric current noise:
[Complete the SS-level mission "Extreme Scavenging" to receive the "Law Analysis Acceleration Module" as a reward and unlock "Gear Language"—which allows you to communicate with old-world machines.]
[Scrap Starport·Law Hoarding Technique]
Pinion discovered that this wasteland was an abandoned "Star Debris Port" with tens of thousands of scrapped starships floating on it.
It used the "Magnetic Traction Device" exchanged from the system to drag a half-sunken "Exploration Ship" into a hidden canyon. The gold-type supernatural power covered the hull like a spider web, analyzing:
- 37 fault codes for the Anti-Gravity Engine;
- Warp Core Cooling System Blueprint;
- Even the "Crew Recipe" engraved on the bridge coffee cup - contains three interstellar spices that can activate metal powers.
The system released the main task: "Collect 100 tons of rare metals and unlock the "Primary Forging Furnace", but the small gear had other plans.
It uses the "gear language" to awaken the exploration ship's AI steward "Rust", and learns that the "Treasure House of Laws" of the old era is sleeping deep in the Star Debris Port, but the entrance has been trapped by interstellar pirates.
Stockpiling strategy:
1. Surface metal hoarding: Using magnetic devices to collect scrap metal, deliberately allowing pirate reconnaissance cameras to capture the illusion of "low-level scavengers";
2. Secret Hoarding Rule: Have Rusty crack the starship's black box and store the hyperspace engine's jump formula in segments into the supernatural space;
3. Trap Countermeasures: Use the stockpiled gears and scrap metal to create "pseudo-law fragments" to lure the pirates into triggering the "space turbulence trap" they set.
[Pirate Siege: Scrap Killing Technique]
When Pinion used the stored titanium alloy to repair the warp engine of the exploration ship, the pirate group "Bone Crusher" suddenly surrounded the canyon.
The leader, Iron Hook, pointed his mechanical arm at it and shouted, "Hand over the hyperdrive blueprints, or I'll melt you into a screw!"
The system pops up three tasks at the same time:
- [Main Quest: Protect the Warp Engine, and receive an "Interstellar Trade License" as a reward;]
- [Side Quest: Craft 10 "Law Weapons" from scrap metal and receive a "Nano Repair Robot" as a reward;]
- [Hidden: Evolve Rust into "Law AI" and receive "Void Divine Stone Fragment."]
Pinion activates the "junk defense system" that has been prepared long ago:
1. Gear Storm: Use the gold-based supernatural power to spin tens of thousands of gears at high speed, forming a cutting force field to cut off the pirates' energy cannons;
2. Rusted Colossus: Crafted from scrapped mining mechs, infused with metallic energy, and featuring a "pseudo-core" made from nuclear waste embedded in its chest.
3. Echo of the Law: Play the "War Song of the Old Times" extracted from the starship's black box. The sound waves resonate with the gears and shatter the pirates' communication equipment.
During the battle, it stuffed a piece of its stockpiled "antimatter container fragment" into Rusty's core. The AI butler suddenly evolved self-awareness and exchanged the pirate's trap coordinates for the true entrance coordinates of the old-time "Treasure House of Laws."
[Treasure House of Laws: The Ultimate Hoard of Gears]
The moment they entered the Law Treasury, the small gear's gold-based supernatural power resonated violently - the walls were made of pure "Law Metal", and every brick was engraved with the technological formulas of interstellar civilization.
It did not move the data greedily, but used its mutant power to "imprint" the law data of the entire wall into the body of the divine stone. At the same time, it discovered a gear-shaped "Crystal of the Law of Order" floating in the center of the treasure house.
The system issued a warning: "Extracting the law crystals will trigger a dimensional storm!" But the small gear remembered Meng Qiqi's teachings: "When it's time to stockpile, even the storm has to be packed up." It used all the stockpiled metal fragments to form a "law anchor point", forcibly incorporated the crystals into the supernatural space, and at the same time triggered the hidden achievement "Order Scavenger".
When returning to the void tunnel, the divine stone body of the small gear was wrapped with tens of thousands of light bands of technological laws. The warp engine drawings of the exploration ship turned into flowing light in its palm. When they were injected into the void lake, a phantom of the "Ark of Laws" composed of gears and formulas rose from the lake surface.
[Void God Stone Warehouse·Technology Law Area]
Meng Qiqi stored the results of the small gear's training in a dedicated warehouse, with a label that read:
- "World No. 11: Laws of Order and Technology: Hyperspace Jump Formula: Complete Edition"
- "The spark of interstellar civilization, the self-awareness core of the Rusty AI, can activate any mechanical body";
- "Law Ark Blueprint·Contains 37 anti-gravity engine solutions·Requires 2000 units of source energy to activate."
When her divine stone body touched the "Ark of Laws", the defense system of the void tunnel was automatically upgraded, and the efficiency of crack repair increased by 300%.
In a newly opened interstellar world, a young man stared blankly at the system panel:
[Newbie Mission: Collect 10 tons of scrap metal to build a shelter. Warning: Disassembling residents' mobility devices is strictly prohibited - unless you can build a hyperspace engine out of scrap like the legendary scavenger "Pinion".]
The boy looked down and discovered a glowing blue gear in his backpack. It was the "seed of inheritance" left behind by the small gear. Engraved between the gear teeth was a motto that only the Void God Stone cub could understand: "True hoarding is to make waste become a container for law."
