All the way down, after an unknown amount of time, everyone finally left the steps, and what they saw was a city with a strong sense of science fiction.
The silver-white building, the patrolling robot in the sky, and the shining ball of light in the center all reminded the three of them that this was Atlantis, the real relic of pre-civilization.
The three people couldn't wait to leave the platform they were on and wanted to enter it to find out, but they were blocked by an invisible light curtain.
Fortunately, this light curtain was not an offensive protection system, it just pushed the three people out gently.
An Ning put her hands on the light screen and said with a sad face: "When I got to the door, I was blocked. This is like seeing a piece of fat in front of me, but I can't eat it."
An Xue on the side also had a gloomy expression. Although she didn't act as exaggeratedly as An Ning, she could still tell that she was a little disappointed.
Lin Lin didn't speak, but studied alone on the platform.
There was only one entrance in front of them, and the other directions were sealed by stone walls. There was not even a single gap. There were murals one after another on the stone walls. There was nothing strange about them, and this was the only one. The entrance was blocked by a light curtain, but if the entrance really couldn't be opened at all, how did the Atlanteans get in and out in the past? Or is this entrance actually a one-way exit, you can only go out but not enter?
Just as Lin Lin was thinking hard, the system began to broadcast a prompt for completing the mission: "Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the series of missions: Searching for Atlantis, successfully obtaining a reward of five attribute points, and starting the Atlantis series. Chapter 2 of the mission.”
Lin Lin curiously clicked on the mission in Chapter 2.
[Series of tasks: Enter Atlantis to investigate the reasons why the Atlanteans left. 】
Thirteen thousand years ago, the Atlantean civilization that dominated the earth disappeared almost overnight, leaving only one ruin. According to historical records, Atlantis was destroyed by a world-destroying flood. Destruction, but is that really the case? What is the truth behind the disappearance of the Atlanteans?
Mission completion conditions: Investigate and find out the truth.
Mission reward: A set of wild-level armor.
…
After reading the mission, Lin Lin was confused. Wasn't this too vague? No hints?
"System, what's going on with this mission description? Can you give me some hints?" Lin Lin called the system in his mind, but no matter how Lin Lin called, the system ignored him.
After calling for a while, Lin Lin gave up and started thinking about what this desolate level armor was.
"An Xue, do you know what desolate level armor is?" Lin Lin thought to no avail, so he had to ask An Xue for advice.
"Desolate level armor? Why are you asking this now?" An Xue didn't understand why Lin Lin asked this question, but thinking that there was no way to enter the ruins now, she started to explain to Lin Lin.
"Desolate level armor is a ranking of armors outside. Specifically, there are eight levels in the universe. Among them, the heaven level is the best and the desolate level is the worst."
"You also know that although the mecha is powerful, it is not indestructible. If the cockpit is accidentally hit, no matter how powerful the mecha is, it will be useless. Therefore, there is the term armor."
"On the battlefield, if you have a good set of armor, you might be able to save a pilot's life. You know, even in the alliance, the value of a pilot is far more than that of a mecha. Without a mecha, A large number of them can be produced in a short time. If the pilots are gone, it will take a lot of time to train them again. You may think that the galaxy is so big, it doesn’t hurt to lose a few pilots, right?" An Xue asked, looking into Lin Lin's eyes.
Lin Lin nodded. In his understanding, the Milky Way has countless civilizations, and just a few pilots should be able to add them soon.
"Then you are wrong. Have you ever thought that our opponent is the Zerg. Among the known races in the universe, the Zerg has the fastest reproduction speed. Millions of Zerg can be reproduced in one day, and the Zerg grows at the fastest speed. It's also fast. You only need to keep eating to grow rapidly. Someone once calculated that a larvae of the Zerg can transform from a larvae into an adult in just two hours if there is sufficient food. fighting."
"And the Zerg eats everything, including ores and steel in their diet. It has been recorded that a Zerg army swarmed into a galaxy and ate up all the stars in that galaxy in just half a day. "
Lin Lin was a little shocked. Even the stars were eaten. The Zerg had such terrifying abilities. If such an army came to the solar system, wouldn't anyone on the earth be able to escape? Lin Lin felt that the world view had been refreshed again. In the past, he only knew that the enemy was the Zerg, but he didn't know much about it. Today, just listening to An Xue's words, he felt a chill on his back. If in the future...
Shaking his head vigorously, Lin Lin threw away the distracting thoughts. If he encountered them, he would kill them to his heart's content.
"So, do you still think it's easy to replace pilots?" An Xue asked Lin Lin with a smile.
Lin Lin smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the number of Zerg could be so huge."
"That's natural. What's officially announced is only a small part. If the full picture of the battlefield is really revealed, the alliance may be the first to collapse before the Zerg attack."
"Let's talk about armor." An Xue took a sip of water and continued: "In order to avoid excessive losses of pilots, the alliance upgraded it again based on exoskeleton armor and used various materials to create armor for pilots to use. But Because of the different materials, the performance of the armor also varies, so there are different levels. As for the desolate level armor you mentioned, it is probably similar to the exoskeleton armor Zhou Yi wore some time ago. "
"Okay, that's all I know. If you want to know more information, you have to check the files yourself." An Xue breathed a sigh of relief and finally finished.
Lin Lin nodded and replied: "I will check it when I get back."
Then he turned to look at the light screen and laughed: "Now it's time to find a way to solve this thing."
"But, do you have a solution?" An Ning raised her head and asked Lin Lin feebly. She no longer had the excitement of just discovering the ruins. She only had an unhappy look on her face, just like in the game, she finally saved enough money. An Ning felt like this when she bought a top-quality weapon, only to find that she was not level enough to equip it.
"No." Lin Lin shook his head, and then said: "But the methods are all figured out, you have to try them to find out."
Stepping forward and touching the light curtain with both hands, Lin Lin began to think about what he would use as a key to the door if he were an Atlantean.
language? Blood or something else.
Suddenly, Lin Lin had an idea and turned to look at An Xue: "An Xue, lend me your detector."
An Xue didn't ask any questions and threw the detector directly to Lin Lin.
After reaching out to receive the detector, Lin Lin stood under the stone wall and began to study the murals.
Five minutes later, Lin Lin suddenly said excitedly: "I know!"
An Xue and the others were startled by Lin Lin's voice and asked quickly: "Have you found a way to get in?"
"Yes, and it's very simple." Lin Lin laughed while holding the detector. When he saw the two men casting doubtful glances, he said, "The answer lies in these murals."
Lin Lin pointed to the top of the steps with one hand and the murals on the wall with the other: "Look at each of these murals and connect all the movements of the little man in the center together. Does it look like a sacrificial dance?"
Listening to what Lin Lin said, the two of them also turned their attention to the mural. After looking at it for a while, they nodded and said, "When you say that, it does look like dancing, but this doesn't mean that the method of opening the door is related to dancing, right?"
"You are wrong to think this way. Do you still remember what we said before?" Lin Lin reminded.
An Ning looked puzzled, thought carefully and said, "Before? What did we say? Oh, by the way, don't use our way of thinking to substitute for another civilization."
"Yes, that's it. If we look at it according to our way of thinking, dancing during sacrificial rituals is just a dance presented to the so-called gods for viewing. But what if in Atlantis, sacrificial dances represent keys?" Lin Lin's eyes flashed with gold, and he continued: "Furthermore, if this dance is not important, how could it be displayed in the form of a mural at the entrance?"
"So." Lin Lin stood up straight and said with a smile, "This must be the way to open the door. This is the key."
After saying that, Lin Lin danced a sacrificial dance following the mural.
"Xiaoxue, do you want us to dance together?" An Ning's face was full of reluctance. The dance recorded on the mural was so ugly that it was difficult for her to accept it.
Unexpectedly, An Xue nodded seriously, and while dancing the sacrificial dance with Lin Lin, she said to An Ning: "I think Lin Lin is right, this dance may indeed be the key, in case only the dancer can Are you going in? Sister, just dance with us. Anyway, there are only three of us here."
An Ning became even more depressed when she saw An Xue jumping. However, after hearing An Xue's last words that only dancers can enter, An Ning finally jumped up reluctantly.
As everyone danced, the light curtain seemed to slowly dissipate. The original blue color of the light curtain became darker and darker. Finally, as the dance of Lin Lin and the others ended, the light curtain finally disappeared.
"It really works!" Seeing the light curtain slowly disappearing, smiles appeared on several people's faces.
After the dance ended, the three of them rushed in tacitly, fearing that the light curtain would appear again and they would have to dance again.
But just after they entered, a figure appeared behind them. It was Baisuke from the five-person team. He followed Lin Lin and the others here at some unknown time.
"Brother Scar, I found the entrance. Come here quickly, it's in the stone hall over here, and I also know the method." Baisuke looked at the light curtain that slowly appeared, took out the communicator and softly contacted his teammates to come over. He slowly hid it again to prevent Lin Lin and others from returning.
Just as Baisuke hid, Lin Lin appeared at the entrance.
"It's weird. Is it my imagination? I clearly felt someone following us." Lin Lin felt a little strange, but he still regarded it as his imagination and turned around to leave.
