Chapter 1154 1154 Shiny?

Max tasked a drone to go out and pass through the distorted area and report back everything that it found as it explored whatever the device was trying to hide. It might very well be a planet that had been hidden from the universe so that its occupants wouldn't be found, and that could be a wonderful addition to their data files. No matter what condition it was currently in.

The drone's speed was set to be slow enough relative to the location that Max believed was being hidden that a sudden impact shouldn't destroy the crab without providing them any sort of data, but fast enough that Max wouldn't have to wait all day for it to get there.

The problem was that there was no way of telling how much of their sensor feed was falsified with that device active nearby.

Evidence suggested that it was likely to only be one region, as they had found the device easily enough, but it was always better to be safe.

As Max had feared, the drone came to an abrupt halt the moment that it reached the obscured area, and began to crawl around on a solid surface that its other sensors said did not exist.

"Boss, I think we found something. Don't do anything for a moment, and I think that we can turn this device off and see what it's doing." The team leader informed him.

Max inspected everyone's thoughts, and they all agreed that it should be safe, a rare consensus among researchers.

"Alright, go ahead. I've got a drone out on a location that is obscured, so if you can turn that off, maybe I can learn something about it." He informed them.

After a few seconds, the device's interference faded, and Max found himself looking at the battered form of an ancient world ship.

Too much history was lost to be absolutely certain, even to the Darklings and Arisen. But Max was guessing that the species here had left after the God of Time had been killed and time had been reset and then locked into a linear stream during the battle with the humans.

It felt like that was all that he did lately. Speculate and guess.

But, it was all that he could do until he had some actual data to work with.

Then, he noticed something strange on one of the optical scan images. There was a word written above one of the airlocks.

[Creeping Night]

Nico hadn't noticed it yet, she was busy analyzing the technical details and not looking at the optical scans.

But when she realized, when anyone realized what this ship was, all hell was going to break loose.

Creeping Night, The Second Flagship of the Ten Worlds Crusade, lost in battle during his previous life, and now floating dead in space a million light years from nowhere.

Max knew exactly where the ship had fallen, and how. But that wasn't here. It couldn't be. There wasn't a star system for a dozen light years, and there should have been because it was destroyed while attempting to retake a hive world during the final battle of the Crusade where Max had first gained fame as a Mecha Pilot. The battle that saw him named a Hero, hundreds of years before he had met Nico.

The memories flooded into Max's mind, leaving him dazed and lost in his mind.

He didn't even notice when Nico came and laid him out on the couch to recover, all he could see was the battle on the surface.n(-o()V--e-)l)(b.-I-(n
