Golden Ball
An inconspicuous golden ball slipped out from the broken teeth, bounced a few times on the ground, and then slowly rolled towards the corner of the wall.
Xia Fei was quick to grab the golden ball in his hand and take a good look at it.
The ball was about the size of a steel ball in a bicycle's bearing. It had a shiny golden surface and was very light. It did not feel like metal when he held it in his hand, as if it was not made of metal at all.
"This is really a strange thing, there is actually a bead in the false teeth." Spiritshadow shook his head in surprise.
Xia Fei, too, found it rare. Most dentures were made from a single piece of ceramic, and hiding a bead inside the tooth was indeed a good way to fool others.
Raising his head to look around, Xia Fei could not help but let out a soft sigh. He had no idea why that d * mn prison security system had suddenly been activated. Now, he was trapped in a cell, surrounded by light blue laser walls on all four sides, firmly sealing Xia Fei inside.
Xia Fei stored the broken tooth and the golden ball in his spatial ring. Now was not the time to study them; the most important thing was to find a way to get out of this place.
The laser walls appeared to be only a thin layer, like a piece of blue cloth, covering the entire cell tightly. Xia Fei knew very well that while these laser walls looked very weak, they actually possessed unparalleled destructive power. There was no way a human could pass through them unscathed.
Chasing Light slowly extended towards the laser wall. The moment the blade made contact with the pale blue light wall, an unpleasant and ear-piercing sound abruptly rang out, followed by a cloud of white smoke bursting out from the sharp tip of Chasing Light's blade.
Xia Fei hurriedly pulled back Chasing Light, only to see that the tip of the blade had already been sliced open by the laser walls. Fortunately, Xia Fei had pulled back in time, or else the blade would have been completely destroyed.
It must be mentioned that Chasing Light was a Legendary rank weapon, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a top-tier weapon. For a thin laser wall to be able to so easily destroy a Legendary rank weapon, its power was truly unimaginable.
Aside from the laser walls, the floor and ceiling of the cell were all made of a single piece of alloy. Xia Fei tried to use Chasing Light to cut the floor twice, but it drew an elegant semicircle and left two shallow marks on the floor, as if it had been lightly scratched twice. It seemed that this method would not work either.
Xia Fei understood that since this cell could trap an Eternal rank pinnacle expert, its defense was naturally far beyond what he could handle. Moreover, this was a cell from the ancient civilization, so the level of technology was far higher than that of the present.
Do I really have to seek help from others? Xia Fei muttered to himself.
Heaving a sigh, Xia Fei took out his emergency communicator from his spatial ring, ready to report to Bosingwa that he was trapped. He could imagine how Moon Song and Chen Dong would laugh at him when they found out about this, but now was not the time to worry about such things. Even if he was mocked, it was better than being trapped here for the rest of his life.
The communicator was blank. There was not even a signal. There must have been a communication jamming system installed in the prison to cut off the communicator's signal, making it impossible to get in touch with other people.
What bad luck, Xia Fei muttered angrily. Xia Fei angrily muttered to himself. It was one thing to be imprisoned, but he could not even call for help. Could it be that he was fated to be imprisoned? This was the second time Xia Fei had been trapped in a prison cell, including his encounter on Blue Sea Star.
The current situation was that not only was he unable to transport the high-tech equipment he had found, he even needed someone else to help him. What the heck was this?
Sulking for a while, Xia Fei sat by the table and took out the golden ball and the fake tooth with it from his spatial ring. He used the microcomputer's video magnification system to examine them.
The only thing Xia Fei could do now was to wait patiently for rescue. The training camp would never ignore the disappearance of a cadet. In another eleven days, when they discovered that Xia Fei was missing on the predetermined rendezvous date, they would surely send people to search the planet. Although this underground research facility was located in a remote area, it was not impossible for the Adjudicator Union to find him with their immense power.
Since there was nothing else to do, Xia Fei decided to study the golden ball. Since a pinnacle expert had hidden this ball in his tooth, it meant that there was a reason for its existence and that it was definitely not an ordinary ball.
The microcomputer used its own pinhole camera system to transmit the images captured onto the projected screen. The pinhole camera had high resolution, so after being magnified by the projected screen, even the tiniest trace was clearly displayed in front of Xia Feis eyes.
The broken fake tooth looked no different from an ordinary tooth on the surface, but after zooming in, one would realize that the inside of the tooth was hollow, and there was even an undetectable layer of metal.
After a simple analysis, Xia Fei deduced that this layer of metal was a special shielding layer that could block detection, so when this pinnacle expert was captured and brought into the lab, the detection system did not discover the secret in his tooth, leaving the golden ball intact.
If this was just an ordinary bead, there was no need to use such a complicated method to hide it. This further confirmed Xia Fei's conjecture that there must be something special about this seemingly ordinary bead.
After putting away the broken tooth, Xia Fei began to study the structure of the ball. On the screen, the surface of the ball was magnified several hundred times, and every detail was extremely clear.
About half an hour later, Xia Fei turned off the screen of his microcomputer. After careful comparison, Xia Fei was certain that there was nothing special about this bead on the surface. If it had any secrets, they would most likely be hidden inside.
Xia Fei held the ball in his hand and lit up a Hongtashan. He leaned back comfortably in his seat and began to think about the golden ball.
Just what is this bead used for? Xia Fei asked.
Phantom shook his head. If you ask me about the current Pan-Human Alliance, Ill be able to answer your questions, but you'll have to rely on yourself when it comes to the ancient civilization. I don't know much more about it than you do.
"Since this pinnacle expert kept it in his teeth so secretly, it shows how much he cherished it. It should be a rather precious item."
Xia Fei pursed his lips. Phantom's words were as good as not saying anything. Everyone knew that the ball must have its own value, but the key was where its value lay and how to activate it.
Instead of sitting there and thinking like a fool, Xia Fei might as well put it into action. Xia Fei gathered his energy and began to try different ways to get in contact with the golden ball.
He first used his thoughts to look at it, but the outer shell of the ball seemed to have some kind of barrier, blocking Xia Fei's consciousness outside, and he could not get inside no matter what.
In the next few hours, Xia Fei tried all kinds of methods, soaking it in water, burning it with a lighter, and almost everything Xia Fei could think of.
When Xia Fei took out a carton of milk and poured it over the golden ball, Phantom could no longer bear to watch. He sighed with a strange look on his face and returned to his little nest, leaving Xia Fei to do whatever he wanted with it.
Xia Fei did not care about any of this at all. Discovering the secret of the ball was his top priority. Who knew how to activate the ball? Xia Fei was not willing to give up even the slightest chance.
The prison was gradually filled with cigarette butts, and Xia Fei's two eyes were a little bloodshot. It had been four days since he had arrived on this planet, and he had not rested for even a second, so he was already feeling a little exhausted.
He laid on the hard and cold flat bed and slowly closed his eyes, wanting to rest for a while. A warrior's mental fortitude far exceeded that of a normal person, so Xia Fei would be full of energy after a short nap.
Xia Fei had always had a good sleep quality, and he immediately entered a deep sleep the moment his eyelids closed.
Sleep was also a skill. A good warrior not only needed to learn how to persevere and fight, but they also needed to learn how to rest. A true warrior could even fall asleep in the midst of dense enemy fire, unaffected by their surroundings.
Just as Xia Fei entered a good sleep, something strange happened.
The golden ball in his hand slowly released an almost undetectable spiritual consciousness, which traveled up Xia Fei's arm and went straight to his brain.
Although Xia Fei was asleep, it did not mean that he had lost his ability to resist. Only his brain was truly asleep, but his consciousness was still scattered all around, carefully guarding and sensing even the slightest change in his surroundings. The moment anything happened, these scattered consciousnesses would immediately send a command to Xia Fei's brain, waking him up from his slumber.
The consciousness emitted by the golden ball was like a thief sneaking into someone's house, hiding all the way and avoiding Xia Fei's layers of defenses in an attempt to reach its final destination.
It had to be said that this weak consciousness was doing very well. It very cleverly evaded the surveillance net that Xia Fei had set up. Though it was not fast, it was very efficient, retreating all the way as it slowly approached Xia Feis brain.
Finally, this strand of consciousness arrived in Xia Fei's brain, but Xia Fei still did not notice this strange existence in his brain, sleeping like a baby.
The consciousness emitted by the golden ball moved around Xia Fei's brain nimbly, becoming even more cautious than before. What was surprising was that this consciousness's final destination was Xia Fei's seventh brain region.
The seventh brain region was secretly located on the left side of the human brain. It was only the size of a needle tip, but it was this tiny bit of brain tissue that provided the most complex and unimaginable ability of humans: special abilities.
The consciousness emitted by the golden ball quietly hid to one side, peeking into Xia Fei's seventh brain region.
After observing for several minutes, this consciousness suddenly revealed its ferocious side, revealing its sharp claws and teeth as it lunged at Xia Fei's seventh brain region.
At such a close distance, Xia Fei had no time to react.
* Splash! *
Like a rock being thrown into the sea, this strange mental energy rushed into Xia Fei's seventh brain region and disappeared without a trace, tightly connecting Xia Fei's seventh brain region to the golden ball.
