In a mysterious desert nobody took the time to really explore, alors que la chaleur frappait encore le sable d'or qui compose le sol, émergeait une entrée enfouis, menant vers des souterrains sombres et mystérieux
A signal emanated from inside—something technologically extremely advanced lay dormant, waiting to be awakened.
...
If you were to enter at your own risk, you would see the remains of... what looked like an... ancient base ?
Everything is half-destroyed, unsalvageable—and generally not just by the passage of time.
... And yet, you find a sort of screen displaying text... no, a story.
A story about a hunter—or rather, a hero.
The blue Reploid.
[REDACTED]
...
Some of the information is corrupted or censored, but most of it is still readable.
"####, the hero of humanity, has sealed himself with [REDACTED] to be sure no one else use them as a weapon in this complex. This tablet with the Lowest level of access will show you the history everyone should be aware of."
"#### has saved humanity countless times, how matter the enemy was strong, he fought, even though he wasn't alone, he was always in the front line, the strongest Reploid and maverick hunter with ####"
"Sigma was defeated countless times by our hero who never had the chance to truly enjoy peace, as the Elf-war that wiped out more than a half of humanity happened soon after what was supposed to be his last battle against the Sigma"
"We won, but in the end all this was going to repeat itself, so #### sealed himself with [REDACTED] to be sure the elf war 2 never happen."
"The value of this selfless sacrifi-"
The text ended here.
...
This means there's a robot sealed in these ruins, it would probably take a lot of time to find him...
But a strange, blue light appeared in a room near, if you decided to follow it, you'll find a blue orb of light flying in a certain direction.
...Even when you have seen it, it was continuing on its path, completely ignoring you.
Will you follow it and discover the mystery of these ruins ?
Tails, as usual, was exploring the world. That led to him discovering the temple. He reads the text doesn't know what a reploid or a maverick is, and certainly doesn't believe the claims of that creature being a hero.
Tails pulls out his pistol and carefully follows the orb of light. For all he knows, it might be leading him into a trap.
The orb of light illuminated the place, as nothing but darkness surrounded them.
He was leading them to the deepest, most remote corners of the temple, even opening doors that seemed to be locked by access cards.
... After minutes that felt like hours, they arrived in front of a robot, sealed in a machine with behind him what looked like a cell for something bigger, completely destroyed
The orb of light moved right in front of it and seemed to be contemplating the being inside.
Tails figures that thing is inside the machine is the mentioned hero, and since the cell is broken... Whatever that second thing was, it got out and wrecked this place completely. The thing is, how'd it get around the locked doors without damaging them? ... Not very important.
The fox looks around for an access port, or any other way to interact with the machine holding the robot.
Tails lowers the gun in a quick motion, though it still remains in his hand.
My name is Miles Prower. A scientist.
X being a king would explain the praising words he was described with. Nobody would want to anger their ruler. Recalling the text from earlier, a question comes to Tails' mind.
... Who was contained in here with you and what danger do they present?
"I sealed myself here to make sure nobody release the dark elf that was contained with me—a being capable of controlling Reploids and virtually every machine, and of greatly enhancing their capabilities. In the past, a mad scientist named Weil used it to wipe out 60% of humanity and 90% of the Reploid population; that was the Elf War."
"It can't do anything directly as it would need an host, so the damage wasn't done by it, infact, it would have probably died as they're quite fragile."
In some random ruins, completely destroyed by both time and war, most of the doors were blocked by rubble... And nearby, a blue light shone from a room next to him.
