Disassembling this black wreck of unknown origin actually posed little technical difficulty. Whether in terms of materials or protective technology, it fell far below the Empire's technological standards, basically no better than an advanced Minion Army unit. Using the advanced equipment they had brought to deal with something like this was practically overkill for the dismantling specialists who had spent days wrestling with the Black Shuttle. After a simple scan, the technicians identified the black cube's layered structure and locked onto a rectangular container at its core. If their guess was correct, the coffin Miss Lin had mentioned was essentially that thing.
Then, under Miss's guidance, the experts found the "Energy Node" near the cube's core. It was the only part of the entire cube showing an energy reaction, but it was currently dormant, with extremely low energy output and activity. If Miss had not warned them in advance, no one would have noticed such an inconspicuous little thing. Yet according to Lin Xue's prediction, it was precisely this Energy Node that would suddenly lose control during the final stage of dismantling and burn out the cube's core. They did say having a prophet at home was like having a treasure. Lin Xue's existence had spared me from who knew how many nearly inevitable losses.
After a brief discussion, the technical experts decided to begin cutting along one edge of the cube and completely pierce part of its outer shell. Judging by its condition, the shell was not worth preserving anyway. Once the shell was breached, the cube's intricate mechanical structure and crystallized energy circuits appeared before them, and the following work required greater precision. Since these internal structures might hold research value, two Autonomous Machines carefully separated several seemingly intact functional modules from inside the cube before expanding the
