How to describe Evan’s current mood?
I suddenly smiled with relief.
Yes, Evan has been relieved. In fact, even if Louis XVI did not explain so much to him, he would choose to put aside his private emotions and continue on his path. After all, for him, it is important to find out the truth of history, but it is more important to let Tariq continue intact.
"Okay, now, hiding it will only make the results more confusing."
Louis XVI snapped his fingers, and the next second, his figure disappeared from the chair. When he reappeared, he was behind Evan. Controlling Hathaway's body, he stretched out his hand, pushed open the window, then turned his head and said to everyone: "Now I can tell you how Hathaway moves in space."
Louis XVI stretched out his hand and slowly opened his palm. An oval cyan crystal floated quietly in his palm. He looked at everyone and said, "This crystal is the legacy of a powerful race."
When he heard these words, Zhou Li's face suddenly froze. He and Eluma looked at each other, nodded, and continued to listen to Louis XVI's words.
"I discovered the Radiant Crystal, but I did not invent it. If you can understand the Radiant Crystal, you should understand that the Radiant Crystal is a naturally growing substance, and human beings only use it to extract energy. .”
Holding the crystal tightly, the cyan substance was integrated into Hathaway's body. Louis XVI looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "And the crystal in my hand has only one ability, which is to operate in the radiant crystal network. The covered area travels through space at will."
"So strong?"
After hearing this, Linghai said in surprise: "Can you travel through space at will?"
"That's right."
Nodding, the crystal once again appeared in the hands of Louis XVI, "Its ability is to travel freely through space in the network formed by the radiant crystal. There is no limit, but it will consume the soul power to a certain extent. Hathaway's soul power She is naturally weaker than others, so she will be weaker every time she uses shuttle, and we will also share the consumption for her. His Majesty I often falls asleep now because the consumption is relatively serious. "
"Then why do you want the Radiance Crystal?"
Facing Evan's doubts, Louis XVI sighed, his words full of helplessness, "At first, I thought that the essence of the radiance crystal had something in common with the soul energy, which could afford the consumption of traveling through space. But then I came into contact with it. I found out that it’s useless, there are no elements in the radiance crystal at all.”
There must be none.
Zhou Li didn't speak, but he knew that the radiant crystal might contain any energy, but it would definitely not contain soul energy. Because these are just crystals transformed from human remains, nothing more.
"Also, there is one more thing I want to trouble you with."
Taking a deep breath, Hathaway's eyes suddenly glowed with a blue halo. The next second, two lines of mysterious text full of rhythmic beauty appeared in front of everyone, "I have always believed that these two lines of unknown text are an interpretation of the essence of this crystal. If we can crack it, we should be able to control it better. Radiant Crystal."
Eluma noticed that Zhou Li's muscles suddenly tensed up the moment these two lines of characters appeared, but soon, his expression became very strange.
"What kind of writing is this? I've never seen it before."
As a model of well-informed people, Lin Ling, who had just sorted out the information, looked over, shook his head and said, "It's not Continental, it should be the language of that remote country."
"The writing method and format are different from ours."
Lin Zi leaned over, frowned and said, "It's a bit like...the divine patterns of the Three Eastern Courts?"
"I know."
At this time, Zhou Li spoke. He looked at the two lines of text and said with a strange expression: "I know the meaning of these two lines of text."
"On the left is [Reac's Space Teleportation Toy V1.0.1], on the right is [Children under 10 years old are not recommended to play]"
?
Obviously, the guys were not particularly convinced by Zhou Li's answer.
"Toy?"
At this time, Louis XVI immediately lost his voice, and then exclaimed: "You said this is a toy?"
"Most likely."
Zhou Li nodded, "But there is a problem."
"what is the problem?"
Louis XVI frowned and asked in confusion: "Is there any question that shocks me more than you saying he is a toy?"
"have."
Zhou Li stretched out his hand, took the "toy" that could travel through space, and said seriously: "This thing shouldn't appear."
Yes, it should not appear, even if it is just a toy for the entertainment of children over ten years old.
The reason is simple, this is "something" from the Trail Blazers.
The pioneers left behind many things, such as knowledge, black boxes, and some materials that do not belong to this world. But the only thing he didn't leave behind was the "creation" of the pioneers.
A comb, a mirror, even a paperclip. The pioneers had completely burned all the creations they left behind before committing that spectacular suicide. Because they are afraid that the relics they leave behind will destroy the next civilization.
The reason is simple, such as a paper clip. For the pioneers, a paper clip can have two attributes: solidity and controllability, and its forging only requires a thought. But for the new human civilization, one thousand, five hundred and ninety spell lines are carved on a needle, and the raw material for forging it is a metal that is 100% resistant to magic. This is a kind of "that transcends the dimension of civilization" gift".
And this gift is poisonous.
"Let me ask you, if a person is a silver-level professional, and suddenly one day, he obtains a relic of a god-given level professional. This relic allows him to easily use silver energy to release god-given level attacks, then , what will happen next?”
Faced with Zhou Li's sudden inquiry, everyone began to ponder subconsciously. There are no fools here. Soon, someone among them understood what Zhou Li meant.
"You mean..."
"right."
Zhou Li nodded and said in a deep voice: "This person will be completely ruined, and his career path will be over for him."
"You can use silver-level energy to activate god-given attacks. Over time, this silver professional will no longer cultivate his own abilities, nor will he strengthen himself. Because for him, no matter how hard he works, he It's better to just move your fingers and unleash an attack ten thousand times more powerful than him. It's just like technology. If humans get a technological product that far exceeds their own technological level, but can be used at will, do you think it will what happened?"
Everyone was silent.
After a long time, Evan sighed quietly and said in a low tone, "Technological fault."
"Yes, there is a phenomenon that has occurred in Tarik, the technological gap."
Zhou Li placed the crystal on the table, snapped his fingers and said, "Tariq has a brilliant crystal that can easily release efficient and pollution-free energy. This crystal is almost perfect as an energy source and can be used perfectly. Replacement of magic energy generating devices. And when he possessed these crystals and increased productivity to a certain level, Tariq fell into the trap of technological fault."
"There is infinite energy, but technology has not kept up."
Stepping on the floor tiles under his feet, Zhou Li felt the soft touch from his toes and continued: "This is like an ordinary person suddenly getting ten million gold coins. The sudden wealth will make him forget what he has learned or experienced before. Everything. He will consume crazily and spend the gold coins without leaving any room. Even if the gold coins are melted and used as a stepping stone, it doesn't matter to him. Because in his eyes, such an astronomical sum will never disappear. "
"But when the gold coins are spent, this person will fall into a desperate situation. He has become accustomed to a life of wealth, has forgotten the ability to survive, and everything he has learned before has been forgotten. At this time, This man has been declared dead. Same goes for Tariq."
"That's right."
With a wry smile, Evan took over and said, "Tariq's magic energy generation technology
....It has been stagnant for a hundred years. "
"If the radiance crystal cannot be used now, then 70% of the equipment and devices in the entire Tariq will be shut down, all vehicles on the street will be paralyzed, and the transportation system and medical system will completely collapse. Our backup magic energy reserve, even We don’t even have five percent of the current Radiant Crystal Network, which is why when we learned that the El Crystal Tower might be in danger, we didn’t choose to shut it down directly. Because we couldn’t bear the pressure.”
"No matter how gorgeous the sky loft is, it doesn't make any sense."
Zhou Li shrugged, leaned on the sofa, looked at Evan and Louis XVI who looked uncertain, and said with relief: "Don't be anxious, you two. It's useless to be anxious. Let's think about how to deal with it now."
"Why don't we think about it the other way around?"
At this time, Huang Yi, who was on par with Zhou Li in terms of quality and not far behind in intelligence, but couldn't beat a woman, raised his head and said wisely: "Let's think about what the gods want to do first."
"Actually, it's normal for everyone here to say this, but it's not normal for you to say it."
Izzy put down the pencil in his hand and said with emotion: "Lord Huang Yi, you are actually a twelve-quarter pope, have you forgotten?"
"yes."
Huang Yi nodded and said matter-of-factly: "If I weren't this bullshit Pope ***, why would I have to deal with it for twelve seconds?"
When I think of Huang Yi's church withholding wages (that is, no wages), the disharmony among colleagues, and having nothing to do but get into trouble all day long, he still has to wipe his ass as the Pope after getting into trouble, and his beloved died because of the gods. Thinking about it this way, everyone felt that Huang Yi should indeed be one of their own.
I guess even Zhou Li didn't hate Twelve Hours that much.
"Huang Yi is right."
Zhou Li nodded and analyzed: "What I can make clear is that whether it is this toy or the radiant crystal, these things have nothing to do with the gods. We should now think about why the God of Commerce wants to you."
Pointing at Hathaway, Zhou Li said with a serious expression: "Hathaway Vladimir."
"I have a clue."
At this time, Izzy, who had no presence other than complaining about Huang Yi, raised her hand and said, "Yin Jue once said that Ms. Hathaway is a key."
"key?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
"Having a key means there is a lock. Having a lock means there is a place that the gods cannot enter, but there is something inside that they desire."
Ivey concluded.
"But how is this possible?"
Lin Zi tilted her head and said in confusion: "How can there be a place where gods can't enter? Aren't they omniscient and omnipotent?"
No.
no.
Just as everyone was brainstorming, Zhou Li interrupted them.
"Let's end the discussion first."
He looked at the astonished people and said in a low voice, "I have clues, but I can't explain them clearly due to some problems. When I find the answer, I will tell you."
Regarding Zhou Li's words, everyone expressed nothing but trust. After all, Zhou Li must have a reason for saying this. If he continues to ask, nothing good will happen.
After receiving Zhou Li's instructions, everyone dispersed and tried their best to do what they could. Zhou Li and Eluma returned to the room in tacit agreement and closed the curtain.
"I almost understand everything."
Zhou Li breathed a long sigh of relief. He took out Hathaway's gem and placed it in front of the two of them. "This is indeed a key."
"The key to that tomb, right?"
Sometimes Eluma seems a little silly, but when it comes to critical moments, she still reacts very quickly.
"right."
Zhou Li nodded, "If my guess is correct, with this thing, this creation that belongs to the pioneers, even if you are not an earthling, you can walk into the graves of the pioneers."
"The gods want to get out of the grave
What do you get? "
Facing Eluma's doubts, Zhou Li pondered for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "The gods' purpose has always been clear. They want to destroy human civilization and kill the world."
"So, according to this idea, there must be weapons in the tombs of the pioneers that can accomplish the gods' purpose, which is to destroy the world."
"But..."
Recalling the tomb she entered with Zhou Li, Eluma didn't think of anything that could be used as a weapon.
A substance that can destroy the world...
substance...
"Wait a moment."
Zhou Li suddenly raised his head, and an emotion called horror appeared in his eyes, "We made a mistake, and so did the gods."
"The substance that can destroy this world may have left the grave long ago."
"You mean..."
There was also a trace of panic in Eluma's eyes. If the two people guessed correctly, then the world would be in trouble.
"What is missing in the tomb is what the gods want. But for reasons we don't know, they have never discovered that what they want has always been in their sights."
Zhou Li clenched his fists, lowered his eyes, and said the same words together with Eluma.
"The remains of the pioneers."
"The remains in the tomb have long since become radiant crystals."
