MTL - Otherworldly White Dragon Lord-Chapter 74 Conflicts between forgotten ancients and interests
Ancient cities that have fallen asleep in the underground world for many years, almost half of which are soaked in water, are full of tall buildings, like forests made of steel. From the appearance of these buildings, these buildings are like tall beehives and abstract painters. The buildings that appear in the weird world under the paintbrushes should have been magnificent and magnificent cities, but because of the erosion of the years, they looked dead and dreary. The buildings in the city were covered with yellow vines and filled with dark green mist. , Just like the **** city in the doomsday scene.
I walked around the collapsed statue for a short time. This is what Yalin saw, an ancient and mysterious city that was forgotten in the deepest part of the world.
"It's really amazing!" Yalin said with a sigh, standing on the rock wall, looking at the whole city.
Even without the use of mind-searching, Yalin can already feel that there is a familiar atmosphere in the huge pyramid-like building in the center of the city that attracts him. Needless to say, this is my ultimate goal, and the soul stone that can increase the speed of soul energy recovery is sending a signal to myself.
Along the way, Yalin searched the entire city with mental exploration but found no traces of life. The road to here was covered with all kinds of weird and terrible creatures, and even a shadow was not visible in the city. This made Yalin feel weird. The Pyramid building where the Soul Stone is located seems to have a strong shielding power, that is, the powerful spiritual detection of the White Dragon King cannot penetrate this shielding.
There is no corpse, no ruins, and all the buildings are intact. This dark uninhabited ghost town does not seem to have been caused by war or disaster, but rather was abandoned by the residents. Yalin flew to a minaret and looked down at the lonely unmanned city below, and came to a conclusion.
What happened to make the residents here abandon their city?
The creatures set in Cthulhu myths are not just deformed monsters. On the contrary, these creatures are highly intelligent species. In the original novel, they even shared a lot of science and technology to human beings, among which the chaos' Nayaratoph 'Every messenger and representative of the gods of God is a symbol of ridicule and contradiction. Legend has it that the atomic bomb and relativity were taught to Einstein. The purpose is to allow human beings to accelerate their own extinction faster and complete the task of' cleaning up '.
If 'Panda' really created these creatures exactly according to the Cthulhu myth, then these ancient creatures should not have disappeared out of thin air like this ┉┉
When he came to the bottom of the Great Pyramid building, Yalin was surprised to find that this huge building was actually suspended on the water surface, as if someone had mischievously cut off the gravity under the building, and the whole building was uprooted and floated. In the air. Judging from the size of the stairs and the height of the entrance, Yalin judged that the former residents here almost matched the dragon in size.
The interior of the pyramid building is much more complicated than the outside. There are forks and stairs everywhere, and the builders have arranged the same pattern here, which is enough to make all outsiders who enter here completely lose their sense of direction inside, but it ’s good. It is the fluctuation of the Soul Stone that points out a clear path for Yalin. Even the walls and gates that block the way will be broken into pieces by the terrible power of the King of the White Dragon.
After finally destroying the last heavy gate forcibly, Yalin finally saw the inhabitants here, or the many remains of the inhabitants here.
At this moment, Yalin also finally understood the role of this pyramid building. It is not a grave but some kind of escape room. The residents of the city are lying in something that is similar to the dormant device on a spaceship in a science fiction movie. . The device has stopped functioning but the dormant inside has turned into a bone-shaped bone. Looking around the entire building, there are thousands of dormant devices. The escape room with the hope of the survivor was like The giant's coffin was dead.
Yalin walked slowly and looked at the residents of the ancient city inside, and visually it appeared that the shortest humanoids were more than ten meters in height at night, and they were almost twenty meters tall. They did have some Cthulhus. The characteristics of the inhabitants in the mythology seem to resemble demons such as heart-stealer. Walking along Yalin stopped suddenly, a huge city dweller in a dormant device in front of her was holding a small one, seemingly a mother and son or father and son.
他们 They may look terrifying in appearance, but they also have the same affection and values as human beings. If they are still alive, they may not be incommunicable creatures.
Yalin stood in front of the dormant device and saluted the two remains gently, and then he did not want to see more. He walked in front of his ultimate goal of coming here. Above the middle part is a cylinder connecting the ground and the ceiling. A dazzling blue stone in the middle is flowing slowly and exudes a strong soul energy breath to the surroundings. Yalin can feel these soul breaths. The flow of the formation of a cluttered shield, making his mental detection power completely useless.
"My respected master, this is the soul stone. Bringing this back to your body can increase the speed of soul energy recovery." Nemo's voice suddenly sounded in Yalin's mind.
"Nemo, do you know why the Soul Stone is in this machine?" Yalin did not rush forward to take the Soul Stone without receiving it, but asked why the Nemo Soul Stone was here. Among the machines.
Nemo replied respectfully: "Yes, my esteemed host┉┉"
Yalin learned from Nemo's answer that this soul stone seems to be used by these ancient creatures as an inexhaustible source of energy for driving these dormant survival devices. After knowing how many thousands of years, the soul stone is still delivering energy endlessly, but the device itself has lost its effect due to aging and all the residents sleeping inside have died.
After listening to Nemo's explanation, Yalin nodded, sighed and floated into the air, approaching the stone of the soul, and stretched out his hand. However, at the moment when it touched the Soul Stone, the sound of gear meshing operation seemed to be heard in the huge room. It seems that the building has not completely lost its function in these tens of thousands of years.
A flash of light suddenly flashed over Yalin, quickly took the stone away, and turned around alertly. A strong frost force had gathered in his hands, but the light was not a sudden enemy, but a 3D similar to the projection. It's just the picture. On the screen, a creature that looks down on the deep sea monster is wearing a black robe, wriggling an octopus-like tentacle-like arm and sending an unknown dull language. Even though the memory of the White Dragon King who lived 10,000 years ago is not recorded in this language.
"Nemo, do you know what he's talking about?" Yalin asked Nemo puzzledly. Although he didn't know what the other party's words meant, Yalin could still read something from the other person's tone and body movements. Messages, fears, sadness, despair, and warnings and prayers.
"I'm sorry to my esteemed host, there is no language information on this creature in my database." Nemo told an answer that surprised Yalin.
"No, you don't even know it." Obviously Yalin has developed the habit of asking Nimo to get an accurate answer when he has basic questions about the world.
Nemo also said with apology: "I'm really sorry for my esteemed host. I carry all the language, customs, and cultural materials owned by the creatures created by the creators in the new era. Old-time creatures don't have much detailed accounts of them. "
Wu Yalin sighed helplessly and said, "Is there no way to know what is going on here?"
"It's not like there is no way I can respect my host." Nemo's voice continued to ring in Yalin's mind: "I can try to crack and translate this language, but it will take some time."
"OK, let's start now." Yalin nodded holding the soul stone.
=================================
In the private hall where the chairman of the Free City Chamber of Commerce in Hordaland sits, Lawrence Wick is listening to the reports of major chambers of commerce through the magic communication device and dealing with different factions and businessmen in the free city. The distribution of benefits between small and large, the chair of the Chamber of Commerce is indeed attractive, but there are also many people who have spikes and no skill on it, but they will hurt themselves. The businessmen in the free city are a whole. Through the integration of interests, different businessmen are brought together. No one can be separated from each other. For example, a weapon merchant cannot be separated from an ore supply merchant, a horse merchant cannot be separated from a grain merchant, and all Businessmen are inseparable from monopolizing the transportation industry. Lawrence knows that Free City is like a unique ecosystem, and if any part of the problem occurs, it will collapse.
Today, Lawrence did not listen to the revenue reports of major chambers of commerce in the city. Instead, he focused more on the misty forest. The heavy snow all year round has saved the Saxony Kingdom in the far north from two games. The war with the Ogg barbarians, if this snow continues like this, the situation on the mainland will probably have to be rewritten slightly.
Lawrence tapped his finger on the desktop and said, "Regardless of the reduction of assistance to the Kingdom of Saxony from other countries, the supplies of the Free City this year are still guaranteed to supply the Kingdom of Saxony."
I heard a reply from the communicator: "Is that okay? Mr. Lawrence! Each time the supplies of the Saxony Kingdom are swallowed up by the Kingdom of Bellama, isn't it too wasteful to continue?"
"It doesn't matter! After all, this snow is really not very secure. If you stop suddenly, the situation will have to be the same again. At this time, it is not a bad thing to get some friendship of the Saxony kingdom. There is no need to save a little. Lose even more benefits. "Lawrence said here, the young and beautiful maid behind him slowly poured a hot cup of coffee.
The Ogg barbarians have always been the public enemies of the entire continent, and the Saxony Kingdom is located right on the front line of the battlefield against the Ogg barbarians. In order to defend the Ogg barbarians and the free cities, they have given a lot of material and food aid . On the surface, it seems that the Saxony kingdom has made huge sacrifices for the safety and security of the entire continent, but Lawrence understands some of the inside story. The Ogg barbarians have also maintained in some cases. It is not considered a very strong reason for the existence of the Saxony kingdom. In fact, the Saxony Kingdom in the extreme north is not suitable for crop cultivation. Food has always been the country ’s most scarce material. If the Ogg barbarians stop invading, then countries will also stop food assistance to the Saxony Kingdom, which may cause Saxony. The kingdom had to find other ways to obtain food and supplies.
However, the most important point is the so-called greater 'interest' mentioned by Lawrence. Although the Saxony Kingdom is in the extreme north, it is not suitable for cultivation, but it can get a lot of forest resources close to the misty forest, and it has been found in its territory. There are many high-value mineral resources. Among them, there are six of the most rare magic crystal veins. The value of these six magic crystal veins alone is estimated to be trillions of ri. It ’s just that the Kingdom of Saxony does not have that much manpower and enough technology to mine these ores ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~, and the countries that it has always been so timid to see are also hindered by the importance of the Saxony Kingdom that has always resisted the Oggs. This blatantly invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Saxony.
The Saxony Kingdom in the far north, which lacks both manpower and technology, is a hungry person holding the Golden Mountain. The various advantages of the free city can quickly fill the vacancy in the Saxony Kingdom. If this snowfall really keeps going on like this, then it is necessary to grab the important mineral resources in Saxony in front of the countries. For a country that cannot produce food like the Kingdom of Saxony, I am afraid it will have to be Various precious minerals have been exchanged for food and supplies.
But that ’s it. Only a lone wolf with claws and fangs can become a loyal watchdog!
Thinking of this, Lawrence nodded with satisfaction, but suddenly Zou raised a frown. Regardless of the matter of the Saxony kingdom, the recent rise of the Carlsmann Empire on the mainland is a real problem, and it has recently defeated Creses After the kingdom ’s army, the slave merchants who originally thought that they could get a large amount of “commodities” actually got only a small amount. The Carlsheim Empire gave Huairou policy to captured and captured residents of the Kingdom of Crecesian Army. The trafficking of enemy captives and leaders in wars in some countries is a common method of supporting war by war. The cruel and ruthless Prince Augustus actually made such a move, which really made Lawrence feel a little difficult to understand.
Both the Creeses and the Carlsheim empires came from the same source after the collapse of the Perlasian empire established by the overlord Garserik. It can be said that the two countries were originally split from a country with the same bloodline. Every time I think of it, Lawrence always has some uneasy feelings. It may be necessary to inquire more about the sound of His Royal Highness!
