System: My Doomsday Train-Chapter 827 - 332: Where the Hell Did This Come From!

What the hell is this?!

Have you seen the "Celestial Palace"?

"Wait for me, I'll bring the train over."

Without a word, Chen Mang turned and strode towards the fridge. He needed to use the radar to carefully investigate, as the naked eye couldn't discern much.

Soon—

He brought the train over.

The image of this Celestial Palace quickly hovered on the "Doppler Radar" screen, along with various pieces of information.

The palace was enormous.

Almost the size of Water Blue Star.

Calling it a celestial palace is not an exaggeration.

Could something like this really have been naturally born in the cosmos?

Although it's possible for anything to be born in the cosmos, the obvious signs of craftsmanship make it unlikely to have emerged from the depths of the universe. This was probably built by another civilization.

It's just...

"There's no sign of life."

Outside the train.

Chen Mang pointed at the screen mounted on the surface of the train and looked towards the Starfire Civilization leader: "My radar shows that this Celestial Palace is currently uninhabited, there's no one inside."

"Two possibilities."

"The first, there's truly no one there."

"The second, my radar can't detect them."

His Doppler Radar is Level 200, with a detection range of a hundred thousand light years, which is definitely sufficient for a Second-level Civilization in the cosmos. Although he has the resources to upgrade it to Level 500, he's decided not to.

Since realizing the existence of "Cosmic Landmines," he feels like navigating the cosmos is like playing minesweeper; a higher radar level is not necessarily a good thing, as you never know what mines you might uncover.

Level 200 is enough for now.

He doesn't intend to upgrade it further.

It's just...

While his rational mind suppresses his desire to explore, his emotions keep urging him to go take a look...

Who could resist looking at such a thing!

A celestial palace floating in space!

Maybe it's a secret base left by some advanced civilization, filled with countless treasures and wealth inside.

"Maybe... there's no one?"

The Starfire Civilization leader breathed a sigh of relief, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. Honestly, when he was suddenly transported here, he was almost scared out of his wits. His first reaction was that he had stumbled into the territory of some advanced civilization.

He hurriedly contacted Chen Mang, escaping to Chen Mang's area of influence first.

The information from his detection methods also showed no one inside the Celestial Palace.

He gradually calmed down.

If there were really people here, his sudden appearance would have certainly attracted troublemakers.

"Well, that's great."

The Starfire Civilization leader immediately prepared to turn and leave.

"Where are you going?"

Chen Mang pulled him back.

"Run in the opposite direction, then wait for the next random teleportation and get out of here quickly."

"You don't want to go up and have a look?"

"I don't."

The Starfire Civilization leader shook his head without any hesitation: "The third law of cosmic survival is that all curiosity is a curse from death."

"You're really not curious?"

"Not curious."

"..."

Chen Mang said nothing more. He just hesitantly turned his head to look at the colossal palace occupying most of the sky. He really wanted to explore it, but it clearly seemed to be something left behind by an advanced civilization.

Although there might be no one inside anymore.

But who knows if there might be some unknown presence.

Advanced civilizations are like dimension-reducing strikes against lower civilizations.

It's not just an overwhelming numerical superiority, but also a superiority in rules and methods.

He was a bit scared to look...

But he still wanted to look...

After pondering for a while, he took a few fridges from the train and dispersed them into the depths of space, letting them drift in the cosmos. Eventually, he decided to give up exploring; the danger was too great, completely unknown.

No one knows what's inside.

However——

He could leave a few fridges here for now and, after some days, send a few brave souls to the palace to investigate what the situation really is, or perhaps wait until they are stronger in the future to take another look.

"What do you think that thing is?" Chen Mang looked towards the Starfire Civilization leader: "A leisurely place for high-ranking people of an advanced civilization, or the cosmic tomb of some big figure?"

"Neither."

The Starfire Civilization leader shook his head: "I think it's more like a civilization tomb."

"Civilization tomb? What's that?"

"When some civilizations cannot escape the fate of extinction, they often preserve their history, culture, and other perpetuate-able aspects in a single location, letting it drift in the cosmos until one day it is retrieved by another civilization."

"It's like leaving their history in the cosmos."

"It's a relatively common behavior. Many civilizations wish to pass on their history, even if the civilization itself perishes."

"This is probably it."

Chen Mang nodded; he could understand this point. The last wish of Princess Tuo Tuo from the "Mechanical Civilization" before its extinction was also to leave behind the true history of the Mechanical Civilization.

"According to what you're saying, this thing should be full of good stuff, right?"

"Hard to say."

The Starfire Civilization leader shook his head again: "If this really is a civilization tomb, then the civilization corresponding to such a large tomb would surely have a high level. Generally, civilization tombs are layered with trials to prevent weaker civilizations from entering the tomb."

"Which means——"

"Regardless of whether this thing is a civilization tomb or not, it's filled with numerous crises inside."

"My advice is to stay away as much as possible."

"In the cosmos, no opportunity, no matter how great, can grant you immortality, but any crisis, no matter how small, can give you a permanent farewell to the sun."
