As he pulled the metal object, the mummified corpse swayed slightly, leaning forward a little, and its gaze, which had been directed at the broken mirror behind it, seemed to turn towards He Ao.
He Ao gazed into those eyes that were separated by hundreds of years, paused in his movements, and said softly, "Humanity has not perished."
Then he reached out and pulled the silver object out.
The mummified corpse kneeling on the ground swayed slightly, as if nodding gently.
Then, with a soft 'bang,' the powerful corpse that had endured for hundreds of years shattered and turned into dust.
At the very center of this dust, a staff about seventy centimeters long, with three gray gemstones inlaid at the top, was revealed.
The walking stick seemed to have been kneeling beneath the mummified corpse, sticking to it as the body dried, only revealing its form as the corpse crumbled.
specks of gray light emerged from the dust formed by the shattered mummy and merged into the staff. One by one, the three gems embedded at the top of the staff lit up, until all three gems emitted a faint glow before the light that had merged into the staff slowly disappeared.
The cane, which originally appeared to be made of some kind of wood, now revealed a jade-like crystalline luster. Streaks of gray light flowed along some mysterious patterns on the cane, eventually converging in the three gray gems at the very top.
This should be the extraordinary item formed from the talent sequence on that mummy expert's body.
In fact, the attraction that the mummified corpse powerhouse had for He Ao was not the kind of attraction he had always sensed for super memory, but rather the attraction for another talent sequence within He Ao.
Talent Sequence 40: Magician
The talent sequence on the mummified expert should be related to magicians, so the extraordinary items formed after his death should also be related to magicians.
He squatted down and reached out to touch the cane.
A name instantly flooded his mind.
'Miracle Wand'

This was the first time He Ao had come into contact with a supernatural item whose 'name' was mentioned in the information.
Other extraordinary items only contain information about their abilities and the costs involved; their names are given by later generations. However, the Miracle Wand had its own name as soon as it was created.
He picked up the magic wand and slowly stood up.
The Miracle Wand's power is simple: it can unleash miracles.
This miracle is somewhat similar to what He's understanding of 'magic'.
The Miracle Wand comes with four miracles, three of which are C-grade and one is B-grade.
The three C-level miracles are 'Blazing Flames', 'Thunderous Strike', and 'Disappearance'.
Blazing Inferno can summon a powerful flame at a designated location, while Thunderous Strike can summon lightning at a designated target or location.
Vanishing can conceal the existence of an object. The concealed object will not be seen by anyone except the owner of the Miracle Wand, nor will it be detected by the machine. However, a maximum of three items can be concealed at a time, and the concealment time depends on the strength and quality of the item and the strength of the observer.
These three C-level miracles can only be used three times every seven days. Each time, you can choose to release one of the miracles at will. If you exceed the limit, you can also use it. Three D-level lives will be exchanged for one use opportunity.
The B-rank miracle was 'Mountain Collapse and Tsunami'. The wand did not transmit the specific effect of this miracle. It seemed to be a miracle that caused damage over a large area. To cast this miracle, at least five C-rank beings, whether beasts or humans, would need to be sacrificed as materials.
Aside from the part that requires sacrificing life to perform a miracle, the Miracle Wand does not require Heo to pay any other price. Unlike the Crystal Ball or the Magician's Hat, it does not require a fixed amount of souls or flesh to feed on, nor does it require certain conditions to be met before it can be used, like the Butcher's Pistol.
The Miracle Wand's three weekly 'casts' seem to come at no cost.
But how can there be a gift without a price in this world? Regarding the price, the Miracle Wand only conveyed one sentence: 'He who wields miracles will become miracles.'
This inexplicable quality made He Ao hesitant to use it indiscriminately.
He put away his wand and looked at the metal object he had just taken from the mummy.
This is a silver metal object, about ten centimeters long and two centimeters thick, with an overall spindle shape.
In the center of this object is a small screen, about half a finger long and a finger wide, which is currently completely black.
He Ao reached out and touched the screen. After a brief flicker, the screen slowly lit up with a menu page containing multiple icons.
Next, He Ao skillfully found the settings icon among the icons, clicked on it, changed the language to the second region, then exited and clicked on all the clickable areas on the small screen again.
After some exploration, He Ao discovered that this little thing was called a 'spacetime beacon', which could be anchored to a certain point in spacetime and sent to that location by some kind of 'traction machine'.
However, the anchoring of spacetime points seems to have inherent limitations, though the machine doesn't seem to have absorbed these limitations.
To be clear, there should be other materials that explain these things in detail.
After reviewing the information, He Ao opened the spacetime anchoring function. There were already three spacetime points with recorded numbers in this function, and it seemed that more spacetime points could be added later. He Ao clicked the '+' sign.
[Should we anchor the current spacetime point?]
[Anchoring, please wait...]
[System error, anchoring failed, please contact maintenance personnel.]
······
It seems there's something wrong with this thing.
He put away the spacetime beacon. He had not found any record of such a spacetime beacon in the data of the copy world. The ruins, or rather the former Federation, seemed to have mastered some technology that the Second District did not have.
But if the original Federation possessed such advanced technology from the beginning, why were they still separated from the sea by storms, resulting in the loss of communication between the various regions?
He Ao rubbed his temples and put away the time-space beacon.
He speculated that the 'gravekeeper' might have come for this time beacon.
However, he didn't know how Dawn knew this information or how she forged the Tower Commander's authorization.
He paused for a moment, pulling his chaotic thoughts out of his mind; he still had too few clues.
After clearing his mind, he went into the bathroom to check, and after confirming that there was nothing else there, he returned to the door.
His gaze lingered on the metal door of the bathroom, which was extremely thick, at least thirty or forty centimeters high. It seemed that this bathroom was not just used as a toilet, but also as a small safe house when necessary.
Unfortunately, this safe house is not safe at all.
He Ao came out of the bathroom.
He turned on his flashlight and saw the central control room clearly for the first time.
The entire central control room is roughly circular. At the front is a display panel consisting of a huge monitor and several suspended monitors. In front of this huge display panel is a row of silver cabinets with many buttons on top, which are probably some kind of computer console.
Behind the server rack were rows of seats arranged in a fan shape, divided into two groups, left and right. Each seat had a table with a monitor in front of it, and the two groups were close together. The aisle between the two groups was wide. The battle between He Ao and the gravedigger had just taken place in this aisle, and the gravedigger's body was now lying in the middle of the aisle.
He calmed down and carefully searched for the thing that had always attracted him.
He followed the pull and moved forward, passing through the densely packed seats.
There were very few skeletons in the central control room. It's unclear whether there were originally few people inside or if they all fled when the crisis occurred.
He Ao finally walked to a closed metal door opposite the bathroom. The attraction that drew him in came from behind this metal door. As he got closer to the spot, he felt the attraction grow stronger.
At the same time, along with this attraction came a terrifying feeling that sent chills down He's spine, as if some kind of horrifying monster was imprisoned behind the door.
The metal door had a circular turntable that resembled a ship's wheel, and for some inexplicable reason, He Ao reached out and turned the turntable.
The turntable wasn't turning; it seemed to be stuck.
at the same time
A piercing alarm sounded on the turntable, and a red 'X' lit up in the center, seemingly indicating that passage was prohibited.
He released his grip and took two steps back.
He stared blankly at the turntable in front of him. For a brief moment, he had lost control of his body, driven by an obsession to open the door and get what was inside.
That attraction is likely accompanied by deadly danger.
But in this world, gains are always accompanied by risks. Even if he doesn't go in now, he needs to obtain enough intelligence first.
He had a premonition that there might be key items inside for advancing to the later stages of the Hyper-Memory stage.
He Ao left the turntable and used his super memory to observe it carefully. The turntable seemed to be an independent system, without a display like the metal door.
He deactivated his super memory, walked to the edge of the metal wall, and gently tapped it. He was met with a muffled sound, which proved that the metal wall was also very thick.
It seems that breaking through by force is impossible.
He thought for a moment.
There's no monitor, no separate control system, but the main control system might have records.
Data about this door, what's behind it, what's locked inside, there will likely be data or log records.
He walked up to the row of silver cabinets and looked at the rows of buttons on them.
The symbols used in the ruins were roughly similar to those in the dungeon world, and He quickly found the power button.
But when he pressed the power button, the main control display did not light up, as if it were silent.
At this moment, the metal doors and some displays inside the tower are still operating normally, proving that the power supply system inside the tower can still provide power normally.
It has power but isn't turning on. Is the machine broken?
······
He Ao thought for a moment and carefully observed the cabinets. Judging from the layout of the central control room, the main unit of the central computer was probably placed in these cabinets.
After turning about halfway around, He Ao found an uneven gap on the edge of the cabinet. He grabbed the gap and pulled hard, and the entire back panel of the cabinet was pried off.
The dense array of electronic components inside is exposed.
He opened the back covers of all the cabinets and began to examine the components carefully.
He actually has a basic understanding of these electronic devices. Although Roy, the character in the third official instance, is a decadent restaurant owner and a middle-aged man, he was once a graduate of a prestigious university in the Federation, such as Dawn University. Moreover, when he was young, he had also done hardware development for smart bracelets, so he has accumulated a relatively deep knowledge of hardware.
Having Roy's memories, Heo naturally had some understanding of these hardware devices.
However, the technological development of the Federation of the Dungeon Worlds seems to have taken a different path from that of the Ruins, but their origins are the same.
Therefore, He Ao could still vaguely discern which area these parts belonged to and what their function might be.
If it's just a simple problem like a faulty connection, He Ao can still try to fix it.
The various components of this main control computer are connected together by complex circuits, forming a complex circuit structure.
He followed these circuits step by step, intending to first check if there was a problem with the computer's central processing unit.
After spending about half an hour, he finally figured out the wiring and located the central processing unit.
