SURVIVORS
Chapters 276. Jadul Computer
"So how did you decide?" ask Dean.
The teleport door was the only option. Getting out of here is not a wise choice" says Dr Chandra.
""What about you, Indra?" ask Dean again.
"Yahh. So I'll just go with you...."
"OKAY. Let's get ready for it."
Dean split the team members. Including Cloudy and a horse belonging to Leon that is still left in Sunil's necklace. And they're hiding in Dean's storage necklace, Alan, Sunil and Robert.
Robert and Michael also deposit Ma and So's bodies into storage.
"Let's go!" said Dean.
The five people flew towards the room Sunil had visited earlier.
"Wait!" said Michael. His eyes were shining purple.
"What's wrong?" Dean stopped his other friends.
"You know I'm dead, but my soul can wander like it's alive...."
"Then?" ask Alan impatiently.
"My soul has wandered all over this prison since I died. I've seen a door that I think is very special. But I don't know what it is."
Dean, Alan, Sunil and Robert looked at each other.
"What do you mean tell me this?" ask Dean.
"Maybe you guys want to check it out. Maybe that's where they keep the loot?"
Ma was obviously teasing their passion and greed.
"Don't you not know what it is. So how can you be sure it's a treasure place?"
"It's possible that there is a slaughterhouse for people who want to escape" added Sunil.
"Hmmm.... Well, maybe too. Whatever, you want to check before you go, or not" he replied Ma did not care.
"Maybe there's another clue there. We'd better check it out first, "suggested Robert.
Dean looked towards Sunil, asking for an opinion. Sunil nodded.
"OKAY. Let's take a look at it for a second."
"Ma, show me the way!"
Ma flew first, then followed by the others. They passed through a long hallway with a very high roof.
Turn twice, then stop at a large, high door. The five people were hovering in front of the two and a half meter high door.
Dean doubts this is the door for ordinary humans. Too big and too high!
"Is the nation that holds you to this door-high?" alan asked who was also astonished to see the door.
"They are no higher than our nation."
Robert who knows. He was also interested in the door. He noticed the carvings on the door leaf.
"Ma, look at this writing. Doesn't this remind you of something?" robert asked doubtfully.
Ma approached and noticed the carving that General So meant. He felt familiar with the emblem. Like I've seen it. Forgetting what and where.
"Can you open it? Is that some kind of symbol or secret key?" ask Dean impatiently.
???
"You're right! I remember now. I've seen these kind of emblems in front of the treasure storage room in the ruling palace.
Alan doesn't understand what the connection is. "Then?"
Ma did not answer. But then he touched some places on the door. But nothing happened. He stopped and waited.
"Weird," he murmured while thinking hard, to the point of linking his two eyebrows.
"Ahhh.. I know!"
Ma immediately floated up and touched the middle of the door.
Click!
Then a mechanical voice followed from behind the door.
"You can break the symbol!" exclaim Robert.
"Curtain! It could be that he just triggered his trap!" alan was not happy.
No one is arguing. They're waiting for what happens. Shortly thereafter....
The heavy and heavy door opened slowly. No more than 2 minutes. The big door was open all over. Some lighting on the wall is automatically lit. Then a brilliant light bounced dazzlingly from the middle of the room.
There, right in the middle of the room, was a transparent glass ball. Crystal clear and very bright luminous.
Dean, Alan and Robert don't know what it is. But there are still things that surprise them all. At the back of the crystal ball, there was a table. The thing on the table felt so familiar.
Alan darted towards it impatiently.
"Is this what I thought it was?" His voice sounded happy.
Dean and Sunil followed him.
"This is an old computer!" sunil.
"Haha..... How did this device get here?" Alan laughed amusedly.
"Did they cross space and time into our world?!" dean and Sunil shouted in unison.
The five of them looked.
"How do we get into our world?" Robert was confused.
Dean then noticed the bright crystal ball.
"In this room there are only two of these things. Shouldn't it be related to each other? Is this crystal ball a means of teleporting to our world?"
Dean's murmur sounded quite loud in the ears of his friends. Alan looked at his companions who were starting to surround the crystal ball. He became impatient. He tried to touch the surface of the ball to prove it.
Everyone watches Alan's strength with worry. But it turns out nothing happened. His palm could touch the surface of the ball safely.
"It's warm. That'sallthatis. Nothing special" Alan said disappointedly.
Others tried to touch him. They were a little disappointed because they had expected too high.
"Then, what is the relationship between these two things? Why are they kept here?" murmured Dean again.
"We don't see the relationship between the two. This computer can't be turned on without electricity. So I think it's probably just a memento they carry with them every time they explore space and time." Robert made a preliminary conclusion.
"Hemmm. You may be right. How can they explore time and space? That's what we're gonna have to look for." Sunil supported Robert's opinion.
"This computer needs electricity, right? Want to try using my electricity?" Alan's idea surprised everyone. Why didn't you think about it? Doesn't Alan have electricity on his fingers?
Michael has ducked down the table. Looking for cables and power plugs.
"I don't think it's necessary!" michael said from under the table.
"Why?" asked Alan astonished.
"Because there's a power outlet here!" point Michael under the table.
They come down to see. Is correct. The plug and socket are connected.
Sunil tried to turn on the old-school computer. But it can't light up.
"If there is a plug and a power outlet, but if there is no electric current, how can it turn on?"
"Haha.... You idiot!" Michael laughed to himself.
"Try you guys to see this. The outlet cable leads to the bottom of this crystal, "indicate Alan.
"Is this bright round ball the power source?" asked Dean in wonder.
Michael tried to turn on the computer again. But still not responding at all.
"Well! Let me try it!" alan was impatient.
Remove the computer plug from the socket. The two small irons he touched with a finger and ran an electric current into the cable.
"Try turning on the computer again!" said Alan.
Michael tried to turn on the old computer.
"Injury! Finally on!" exclaim Michael pleased.
"But, without the floppy disk program, this computer could not work" he said disappointed.
The two floppy disk spaces on the cpu were empty. And Michael didn't find a floppy disk on the table.
"That's it. forget it. Meaning these two tools are true only souvenirs they carry while exploring." Robert mediated the disappointment of his friends.
"We know that this nation has ventured into our world. He brought a computer as proof, though it could not be used. What about this ball of light? Can you guess which souvenir from which nation?" ask Robert.
They try to think of some possibilities. But in the end, it shook itself. Surrender.
