echo.
All different echors have shocked in their ears for thousands of years.
The first thing is thunder. And incredible huge shock. It was the sound of the mainland shaking, the ocean boiling sound. The storm swept the world, even if the entire research institute sinks into the bottom, it cannot prevent the thunderous thunderous inspired by the tsunami to hit the mountains. Death is painless, and there is no need to face the reality of suffocation after the end of the end.
Then came the sobbing. The survivors were lucky to save their lives in the face of the disaster, but they still have too many things that have not been preserved. And meet with my friends on the street. All the ordinary things that make up life have gone away, leaving only the scattered sobs and sobs in the strong wind after the destruction.
Then I questioned. Why us? Why does the disaster come? Why does this happen? Why are those who die? Why can an incompetent person like me survive?
存活下来的人除却自己幸存的侥幸外，偶尔也会从心底深处涌现出这样茫然亦或是愤怒的质问，他们深切地感受到了自己的无力，比死亡更加痛苦的活着，因为他们明白，仅仅It is because they will never be able to usher in the happy ending of the story after surviving a desperate situation. Civilization will definitely be lost in their hands. They will be the first to enter tragedy, so they would rather let others survive on their behalf. But in the end, there was silence.
No matter how angry and painful, despair and blank, reality will not change because of crying.
The Tyra civilization has been destroyed, and its last trace of atmosphere was forcibly maintained with wisdom with an old man who would take the wood.
As long as he is still alive, civilization still has the possibility of recovery -because he has a gift that can record all the information, a chip shining with silver brilliance, like stars.
With such an incredible gift and the wisdom that transcended the times, even a person can carry civilization.
After the disaster, he did not give up his efforts. The old man was still conducting experiments with some surviving researchers in the remaining research institute, exploring the many possibilities of sublimation, and sending away the inheritors who inherited part of his knowledge one by one. Send many refuge in Tyra.
He was keenly aware of the suffering and torture that Terra was about to face after its destruction - the star god's spaceship fell, and the true dragon's plan failed, but the fire of a thousand stars would still arrive as promised, and this time, who could welcome them It is no longer a complete Tyra civilization, but a planet that is turbulent but can still bred life.
A land where "them" can take root and revive again.
They will not be contained by Terra, but will grow freely, growing into their own perfection in all suitable places, wreaking havoc in the homeland of mankind.
——It must be defeated.
This is the only goal set by the old man for himself.
At least, humans must at least leave themselves a graveyard for themselves.
—— As for what to do ...
In the empty laboratory, only the echo of footsteps echoed. After the last researcher was sent away, the entire research institute was silent, leaving only the smart servant to move in the corridor.
It was in this silence that the Forerunner stopped breathing. When is life left from that body?
After getting glory, a respectful position, the trust of everyone and even worship, it has created a new era. He is undoubtedly a individual at the apex of the planet ... such people, even if they die, should It is amazing, shocking the whole of the entire civilized world.
But unfortunately, civilization died first. So the endless echo is silent. The light and shadow disappeared, and all images collapsed.
Ian seemed to be awakened and moved his hand from the fragments of the computing chip.
"Ian?"
On the side, Anfa noticed that Ian's wrong, she asked at the beginning, and the teenager returned to God: "Huh? Hmm ..... it's okay."
The man smiled peacefully: "I just... saw something unusual."
It is indeed not ordinary, and it can even be said to be an extraordinary past.
There is no other possibility. Ian can be sure that what he saw was the original owner of the silver chip, the "Forerunner" in the last period of his life.
However, this time is not complete. Only the memory in which he was confused that his knowledge could not be passed on was relatively clear. The memories in other periods of time were just fragments, fleeting and passing by, unable to be seen clearly at all.
In this memory, Ian feels the most, but it is not despair, fear and confusion.
But a deep loneliness.
As the crossed by the earth, another civilized visitor, Ian is as lonely as the pioneers.
They are also in a world behind their life. People around them cannot understand their wisdom, and it is difficult for them to change their time ... they know that if they die, they will change The possibility of this world will disappear.
The only difference is that the Forerunners are old, while Ian is only seventeen. The pioneer has no time to reverse the future, and Ien not only has it, but even the prophet, can get more time from future forecasts.
But in fact, the environment of the Forerunners is actually superior to that of Ian. Human beings of the shelter at that time were the survivors of the Tyra Epoch -ahead Civilization. In their memory, there was the glorious golden age, and everyone had the morality and insights of the Great Tong era ... the most important point.
That is, they both know about the stars—and long for them.
As long as it is given a pioneer for ten years, today's Tyra civilization may be far from today.
(It's a pity that there is no if there is no if)
Ian thought to himself. In any case, the pioneers did not successfully save the previous era civilization. He died, the former era of civilization disappeared, and many shelters have become the original form of the Tyra country today.
Of course, he did not fail completely. At least, the gift of star god, that is, the silver chip is indeed successfully transferred by him, and the silver chip can even be transferred again and again to cultivate many people including Inajah II. .
Now this authority is in the hands of Ian.
And he was preparing to go to the Alien Research Institute... to return to the burial place of the original owner of the silver chip.
"I think."
After calming down, Ian turned his head and said to Anfa beside him: "The reason why the source material computing chip is so important...maybe because its complete body contains all the data in the Alien Research Institute. "
"In other words, the source material computing chip is the core of the Xenogeneic Research Institute, and we already have a fragment in our hands, which has an advantage in the process of exploration."
Ian did not tell the complete truth to Anfa. The function of the source of matter computing chip may indeed include the above, but its real function... Ian guessed, it may be related to the echo of the Forerunner.
echo. The reason why the Cherrylvi family is degraded in Nanling is the method of eternal life and the technology that the land -guard Axel is now researching.
Its real essence is to use a certain method to record the personality and memory of the next person. When the original owner died, the personality and memory of this re -engraved can survive him and continue his work.
Like an echo in the valley.
But because it is echo, it will continue to deteriorate, because the experience is different, there is no same soul, echo will eventually become different from the original owner, and even the opposite is not certain ... This is theoretically true meaning in theory. The "mirror" method of immortality on the Internet is too far behind.
The technology of the previous era of civilization has not reached the point where the soul can be perfectly recovered, so it can only retreat and use echo.
In other words...
(In the heterogeneous research institute, maybe there is still the residual echo of the pioneers?)
Ian did not tell this, telling Anfa,
I just became more vigilant in my heart: (Even, that dark gold dragon...the dark gold dragon that flew straight out of Prison Star Prison as soon as it appeared, is it the echo of the forerunner?)
This is not impossible, it can even be said to be very possible!
Although he couldn't figure out why Echo turned into a giant dragon, and he couldn't figure out why this giant dragon wanted to go to the outer void and beyond the hell... But Ian knew very well that the Echo of the Forerunner definitely knew countless things. The most precious knowledge!
Information related to the Star God, information related to true dragons, the core outline of the way of sublimation, the nature of the lifespan of sublimated people and related life-extending surgeries, life support systems... there are too many, just a few short Ten seconds of memories contain at least seven or eight kinds of things that Ian are very interested.
must. Definitely gotta get it. Obtain the database owned by the Xeno Research Institute and Forerunner Echo.
Ian had made up his mind.
So, after taking a deep breath, he said to the princess of Jin Deng's family: "But, I saw the extreme danger behind this chip... Anfa, I think the Xenogeneic Research Institute Underground, there is a fourth energy level, or even the peak of the fourth energy level. "
"The reason why I don't say it is the fifth energy level is because I can't be sure. After all, I haven't arrived around the ruins yet. If I arrive, I may be able to give the answer. But the peak of the fourth energy level is already very dangerous. All countries are exploring Is the team prepared to deal with such enemies? "
"of course."
Anfa listened carefully to Ian's words, but after hearing these words, he laughed, as if he felt that Ian's worries were meaningless: "Exploration teams from various countries have fourth-level strong men, not to mention On our side of Canaan Moore, my uncle, Speaker Japheta, will be in charge personally... The Silver Gatekeeper, the inheritance of the Silver Gate family, will have the ability to cross space at short distances at the fourth energy level. With him here, we can explore Everyone on the team will be safe."
"And your empire is led by the eldest prince Carlos... You must know that, right? The speed of the imperial royal family's bloodline 'Sun Bird' surpasses the reaction speed of all other bloodline true forms. Without a certain amount of prediction ability, it is impossible to counterattack their attacks, and it is extremely simple for them to protect others. Even the fifth level may not be able to stop him."
"As for the strong of the king of heaven, the three sons of Da Khan, Gona Simer, the controller of Suyue Prairie. There is a fifth-level true dragon, and with his power, he can block it for a few seconds, until we, the strong men of Canaan Moore, take action."
Anfa's tone is very confident. Obviously, in order to ensure the smooth exploration, the hosted by the three hosts of Canaan Moore, the Empire, and the Cangtian King Ting has long done all the plans, even if there is really a fifth energy level (basically unlikely to be unlikely ) appeared, they were able to deal with it and saved most of the members of the exploration team.
If it were the fourth level, strong men from all over the world would join forces and they would just be pinned to death. Even the Xenogeneic Research Institute, the top large-scale laboratory of pre-era civilization, is unlikely to encounter a situation that they cannot cope with.
"Is that so? Then I'll be relieved."
Ian smiled and nodded on the surface, but actually there was something subtle in his heart.
Because he remembered the transmitter given to him by the Speaker of Japhetha...Obviously, the Speaker of the Canaan Moore side had an ulterior motive. He may have a deeper understanding of the Alien Research Institute than everyone else imagined, and The situation in the Alien Research Institute is also more complicated than everyone else imagined. With the presence of Echo and the Dark Gold Dragon, something big will definitely happen in this exploration.
But it is precisely because something big will definitely happen that gives Ian the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and get more gains... So Ian will not stop Speaker Yafoda's plan, but will also help him.
After all, not only for the harvest, but also for the Speaker of Yapheda to acquiesce that he can take away the fragments of the "Ladder of Life Tree", Ian will cooperate with the other party. This is also the reason why the Speaker believes in Ian. He knows it very well. How big this young man's ambition and desire are is something that a simple researcher like Master Glave cannot see, so they can reach a consensus in a few words.
"big
That's about it. "
Ian took a slight step back, away from the box in Anfa's hand: "I suggest bringing it with you when exploring. This may be the key to controlling the computing chip when we find it."
This is not an unintentional statement by Ian, but a fact. Just now, Ian has copied the structure of this part of the computing chip through the silver chip. Later he can study its details, deduce its ontological structure, and then try to create an intrusion program for the source material computing chip and even the source material. Quality virus.
In the final analysis, it is nothing more than programming that is similar to shaping an artificial soul. The pre-era civilization has just started in this regard, and may not be more sophisticated than the technology of the current Terran civilization.
At that time, he only needs to bury the virus program in the fragment, and then return the fragment to the main body, and then use the simplest method to embed the virus into the main body of the chip.
Of course, Ian actually also thought about the possibility that the essence chip would directly grant him the highest authority when it saw the silver chip... But you have to be prepared for everything. As a prophet, Ian has always Be careful and leave no loopholes.
"Okay. Thanks a lot, Ian, that's another big help!"
Anfa also nodded seriously to Ian's suggestion, and then showed a bright smile. With such key information, the Ember Lantern family will undoubtedly occupy the opportunity in this exploration.
Not to mention, her teammates are Ian. As a prophet, Ian can only get so many information when I observe chip fragments. How much information can the other party get when they arrive in the ruins?
In addition, it is impossible for a prophet to fall into a trap and be ambushed by various strange things. This is a great advantage for ruin exploration. Anyone who has explored it will understand.
Being in a team with teammates like this makes me feel comfortable no matter what.
After writing down a few more large sums for Ian, the happy Anfa arranged for Ian and Xiou to live in the mansion, and in the absence of their mother, as the owner of the Jindeng family's main house, he served as the noble The guests prepared a sumptuous dinner.
The girl even invited Master Gosei and Isengard over. Anfa knew very well that these two people were Ian's friends and seniors, and would also be their future partners in the Alien Research Institute, so he simply called them over to celebrate.
"The best food in Canaan Moore? Dragon King..."
Xio is looking forward to this very much. She even starts to drool when she thinks about the delicious dishes and snacks that may exist - for an inexperienced dragon who has not been out of Nanling for many years, Anfa is really the best. Friend, she couldn't help but rush forward and hug the dazed elf girl fiercely, and even lifted her up and kept spinning around.
"No -诶 — Gio!"
For Anfa, this is obviously a brand new experience. She was a little blushing and angry at first when Xio happily hugged her waist, but soon she realized the other party's sincere joy through the dragon soul. He could only shake his head helplessly: "Okay, okay, since you are so happy, I grant you the permission to hug me and spin me around... But remember! You can only hug me when I am using a female prosthetic body, not men. !」
"Eh?"
When the red-haired dragon girl heard this, she stopped spinning in confusion: "Why?"
"Because my male prosthetic body still needs a little dignity." Anfa warned seriously: "You are not allowed to use the male prosthetic body to hug me, unless it is Ian's face. Your original male prosthetic body used My face looks so weird. "
"Okay, it's up to you."
Xio felt a little constrained, but she still respected her friend's thoughts, but couldn't help complaining: "You Canaanite Moors are so old-fashioned, we real dragons never care about this!"
"Why use my face, don't play with other people's faces ... Forget it, this is probably a way of expressing enthusiasm for real dragons."
The bitter smile of Ian's evaluation of the interaction between the two dragon -blooded girls (at least appearance) of Hio and Anfa is the pioneering pioneer of the tip. Is this really allowed by Tyla today? Alas, but think about it, after all, it is Tara, it is not surprising what happened, this
Where is it, it is not surprising at all.
In fact, Ian originally intended to talk about Anfa about her blood. Jiegena may be just an ordinary passerby stepping stone, but the news he told cannot be ignored. The reason why Anfa pays attention to Qiang Steel Dragon's secret method of resurrection must be related to the issue of her bloodline.
Ian can not be said to be well known about the essence of the micro -light cradle system and real dragon. At least it can be said to be extremely proficient. As a friend and in -depth collaborative, Anfa must be very important. Ian would never forgive himself for the accidental death of such a friend and big benefactor due to the collapse of his bloodline.
But seeing Xiou and Anfa playing happily, and Anfa himself not seeming to be particularly anxious, Ian felt that he could wait until after the dinner to ask the question - don't do heavy things when everyone is happy. Let's talk and wait until the game is over before talking about real topics. His emotional intelligence is not low at all.
As for Anfa's invitation to Master Gosei and Isengard, Ian was very happy - he did have something to discuss with Master Gosei, and he also planned to tell Isengard and Master Gosei about his identity as a prophet.
Now, when Ian has gradually established a foothold in the empire's system, with a backstage and his own territory, some secrets no longer need to be secrets.
Exposed, on the contrary, it solidifies confidence in friends and deters enemies.
Besides... Before the dinner, Ian wanted to figure out one more question.
In the memories of the forerunners, the silver chip, also known as the gift of the star god, was described as the 'key to the final ascension' and the 'foundation of civilization's ascension...' Ian can actually understand both of these, after all, no matter Whether it is the meditation method he created himself or the Sephiroth computing chip created by the Forerunners, an ordinary human can become a superman with extraordinary computing power and psychic toughness.
As long as there is a silver chip, personal sublimation and civilizational ascension will have the possibility of success.
But it is precisely because of this that Ian wants to understand one thing.
"The silver chip couldn't be removed from the host in the first place? This was the source of the Forerunner's pain. He couldn't even transfer the gift of the Star God to others."
Sitting in his single room, Ian specifically asked Anfa, Xio, and Master Glavey not to disturb him.
After closing the door, the young man sat alone at the desk, staring at the rise and fall of the lava lamp in front of him. The red-gold light reflected in his water-colored eyes: "But the Forerunners solved this problem in the end - after I got the silver After chipping it, I successfully fused it and could just 'uninstall' it.
"How did he do this? Did subsequent silver chip holders also make other improvements to the silver chip? Did Inaga II do the same?"
"I don't know the original form of the silver chip, and naturally I can't be sure whether the current silver chip is all or part of the Star God's Gift... If it is not all, then whether there is a complete silver chip in the Alien Research Institute version of ‘other components’?”
This series of thoughts flashed in my heart, and Ian's eyes gradually became faint: "Of course, there is one more important thing."
"Maybe... I should give it a try."
"Try it if I can really uninstall it ..... Silver chip."
