“Hmm?”

Merlin turned around abruptly. At this moment, he saw the Black Star Armor quivering gently on the ground as if it was alive.

“What is it?”

Setoh and the others immediately turned back and looked at Merlin cautiously.

Merlin was also slightly doubtful. Just then, the Matrix’s voice sounded in his mind after a long hiatus. “Discovered decrypted information. Read?”

“Information?”

Any information that can be “read” by the Matrix was similar to the items created by the Atlan civilization. Indeed, the Vestigial Tribe had some resemblance with the Atlan civilization. Could there be anything left behind?

Despite the uncertainty in his heart, Merlin whispered resolutely in his heart. “Confirm, read!”

Soon, the Black Star Armor calmed down again. Merlin shut his eyes and waited patiently for the Matrix to complete reading the information.

“Beep. Decrypted information had been read.”

Upon hearing the Matrix’ voice, Merlin swiftly extended his Mind Power into the empire-level warship in his ring. This was because the Matrix had been completely integrated with the empire-level warship. However, it was still controlled by Merlin.

“Analyze new information!”

Merlin hurriedly commanded the Matrix. Instantly, a huge load of information appeared on the screen of the empire-level warship. It was a series of pictures.

These pictures depicted a young boy. From the moment he was born, a minuscule intelligence chip had been implanted into his brain. This intelligence chip was known as the Brain of Life, which meant that it could help life-forms evolve.

The Brain of Life was the real reason behind the Vestigial Tribe’s powers. It was equivalent to each Vestigial Creature’s identity card.

The Brain of Life was completely integrated into every single baby born in the Vestigial Tribe. From the moment their consciousness was awoken, the Brain of Life would gradually transfer bits and pieces of information into the baby’s brain.

Hence, every Vestigial Creature’s knowledge was extremely impressive and incomparably vast. Finally, the Brain of Life would analyze every person’s knowledge traits, and assign them jobs once they become adults. Some would become engineers, some would become soldiers, and so on.

The entire Vestigial Tribe was an egalitarian society. Every Vestigial Creature would play a specific role to support society. From the viewpoint of other civilizations, the Vestigial Tribe was a perplexing civilization, and to some extent, a “perfect” civilization.

However, nothing is perfect in this world. The Vestigial Tribe’s resourcefulness led to the invention of the Brain of Life. In some ways, the Brain of Life was far superior to any intelligence chip and allowed the Vestigial Creatures to be nurtured with various information from young.

With the Brain of Life, the Vestigial Tribe began to embark on a different journey, which was using everything around them to enhance their abilities and develop the civilization. They did not need to integrate with the natural order. In the end, in their quest to obtain some precious mineral resources, they had inevitably fallen into conflicts with other civilizations.

It was at this point that the Vestigial Tribe unexpectedly discovered that their civilization was very different from the other civilizations around them. Moreover, the surrounding civilizations regarded them like strange creatures.

Hence, the Vestigial Tribe fought back. The entire civilization began to descend into violent conflicts with other civilizations. A massive war was inevitable.

This was the general content of the information. Of course, the war was narrated from the Vestigial Creatures’ perspective. In the end, no one could determine who was right and who was wrong.

Perhaps, it was simply a war of survival.

This lode of information contained the life story of the owner of this Black Star Armor. Since young, he excelled at combat, thus he was nurtured into a warrior. At last, he became a warrior acknowledged by the Black Star Armor, and became a powerful Black Star Warrior.

Along with a few other Black Star Warriors, they had attacked one of the powerful civilizations called the Titan Civilization. Back then, the Titan Civilization had a fearsome number of Titan Giants. Otherwise, the attack would not have been comprised exclusively of Black Star Warriors.

Unfortunately, they were all trapped in this dimension, and were killed by the Titan Giants. Looking at the state of the current Giant Tribe, however, the Titan Civilization must have also suffered a massive loss. None of the Titan Giants survived. Else, Chronos would not have become the only Titan Giant after obtaining the heritage blood by chance.

Merlin found out a lot of information about the Vestigial Tribe. Although the information was extremely important, he could analyze them carefully at a later date. Right now, his priority was to be acknowledged by the Black Star Armor.

According to this sequence of information, earning the acknowledgment of the Black Star Armor was very challenging. First, it had to be a Vestigial Creature whom the Brain of Life had nurtured into a warrior since young. Only then, the person would qualify to receive an acknowledgment from the Black Star Armor.

Moreover, the candidate also had to be a strong contender among its peers. With an additional stroke of luck, he or she could be acknowledged by the Black Star Armor. As for beings from other civilizations, due to the absence of the Brain of Life, the possibility of them using the Black Star Armor was nil.

Therefore, even if someone were to obtain this Black Star Armor, they would not be able to use it. This was the true reason why, despite being an all-powerful Black Star Armor, it had been left untouched.

All the other Black Star Armors had been shattered into smithereens. Only the Vestigial Creature in this Black Star Armor had been relatively lucky and was merely severely injured. Nevertheless, he had no way of leaving this dimension, so he died slowly. As a result, he was able to leave behind a mostly-intact Black Star Armor without damage.

“Merlin, what’s the matter with you?”

At this time, Wizard Setoh’s voice rang in Merlin’s ear. Merlin raised his head and saw that everyone was looking at him with a weird expression.

Merlin was unconcerned. In a deep voice, he said, “I might know how to take this Black Star Armor with us. However, I’ll need more time.”

“What? You can bring the Vestigial Tribe’s Black Star Armor with you?”

Setoh was astounded. After hearing Flarite’s earlier introduction, even he was tempted by this Black Star Armor. However, in the end, he could not bring it with him.

Right now, Merlin could potentially bring the armor with them. Even if they could not use it, they could study it carefully.

“I’m quite confident that I can bring this armor away but I’ll need some time to study it.”

As soon as Merlin finished speaking, he closed his eyes. He was carefully examining the information about the Black Star Armor.

Right at the beginning, the Black Star Armor was created by the Vestigial Tribe especially for their warriors. With the help of the Brain of Life, anyone who became a Black Star Warrior would be able to gradually fuse with the Black Star Armor and become one.

The owner of this armor had just recently gotten the acknowledgment of the Black Star Armor at the time that he was sent on this dangerous mission. As such, he did not have time to fuse completely with the Black Star Armor. Consequently, he was shaken to death by the Titan Giants. Otherwise, he could not leave behind such an intact armor.

“I can’t be acknowledged without the Brain of Life? I don’t have the Brain of Life…”

Merlin was stumped. Not only did he not have the Brain of Life but other civilizations also could not possibly have it either. Even the Atlans he had captured had never heard of the Brain of Life.

Merlin was extremely frustrated.

“Without the Brain of Life, I cannot be acknowledged by the Black Star Armor… Regardless, I’m not a Vestigial Creature and have no intentions of wearing the Black Star Armor. All I want to do is bring it away.”

A flash of inspiration struck Merlin. He recalled some background of the Black Star Armor among the information. It seemed like every armor was controlled by a sequence of program.

However, this control program was temporary. Upon the successful fusion between a Vestigial Creature and this armor, the control program would cease to operate. Nevertheless, the owner of this armor was yet to begin the fusion?

Perhaps, the program still controlled the armor?

Stumbling upon this thought, Merlin’s heart was overjoyed. He immediately commanded the Matrix, “Matrix, try to invade the program and control the Black Star Armor!”

After he finished speaking, Merlin waited with bated breath. He did not know whether the armor still contained a program or whether any change had transpired over the years. Most of all, he did not know whether the Matrix could control the Black Star Armor.

It was a series of unknowns. Right now, the only thing Merlin could do was to wait patiently…
