"Girls, look how far his taste has fallen."

Jeanne flipped through the data pad, revealing a sly smile.Salomon didn't try to stop it, but stuffed a piece of meat into the mouths of himself and Miriam. Even the Cheshire cat got a small piece of fat, which Miriam didn't eat. "Your research on this party planner is really deep." Joan showed the pictures on the data pad to others at the table. "Is there anything worthy of attention about her?"

"Except that she lived a long time, no." Salomon held a cigarette between his fingers and washed the meat into his stomach with a sip of wine.Immortality is already very special, but for this manor, his own actual biological age has long been uncountable due to frequent inter-galaxy travel, and the two witches are also over five hundred years old.

"About the time of Cesclow."

"Late Neolithic, 7510 BC to 6190 BC." Lara Croft held up a spit wearing a barbecue, and if there was any benefit to convalescing here, it was that she would no longer be concerned about the existence of immortals. surprised.There is a lot of knowledge here, and she can absorb it at will.She looked at the photo carefully. "Now there is evidence that the Cesclow immigrants from Greece came from Asia Minor. Black hair, high cheekbones, very consistent with the ethnic characteristics of Anatolia. If this is true, it means that this woman lived almost 1 years ?”

"Finally someone understands that I'm dealing with official business." Salomon clapped his hands, startling Miria.He hastened to appease the girl sitting on his lap, then held out his finger and asked Dinah to pour Lara Croft a glass of whiskey.There are indeed many exquisite rules in this manor, but they are for the guests to see, not for the owner of the manor to abide by. The rules will give people a sense of distance and can set off the unattainableness of the manor owner. Salomon himself does not need those annoying rules. ,

"I like this." Lara Croft downed the two whiskeys. She put the Iberico ham in the appetizer on the fried small bread cubes and stuffed them into her mouth.This way of eating is not necessarily delicious, but it will definitely make people feel satisfied. The relaxed atmosphere at the table completely infected her. "I'm also interested in your official business." Lara Croft swallowed her food. "I've never seen anyone who has lived this long. The source of the divine?"

"No, the Holy Source is just a by-product of the Philosopher's Stone." Salomon said, "You can find the method of making the Philosopher's Stone through the Red Dragon Path in my library, and there is also a dictionary of alchemy for reference. As long as If you can learn it, then you can also create the Philosopher's Stone, Wanda?"

"Huh?" The red-haired witch looked up from the plate.

"Not now, Miss Crawford."

"You want to know how many immortals are influencing history?"

When Salomon explained to her why the existence of gods is harmful and not beneficial, the group of gods is the best example: if a god is really omniscient and omnipotent, then worship and prayer would be meaningless, and superstition would only prove human weakness and fear .Human beings need faith, but what they need is their own courage and unity, faith in reason and sacrifice.

"Do you need help?"

"Because their deformed, exiled, and mutilated brethren are leading the dark order to the earth." Salomon said the information he got from his adoptive mother.He didn't reveal all the truth, some deeper and more subtle information only he knew.He is worried that the Eternal Race is related to himself in time travel. To be precise, if the Eternal Race has been hiding in human society or secretly guiding human development, then the Eternal Race must be related to him. "The Eternals are not complete immortals, they just live longer, but they have a way to resurrect themselves. A technology that we know little about, captures a specific soul from the etheric sea and instills it into a specific physical body .”

"You will not be deceived, Laura." His tone was a little serious, "but I want to declare to you that it is not the immortals who guide history, but history guides the immortals. You have mistaken causality, and your thoughts are still stuck in the I look forward to prophets guiding human religious thinking. God is created by humans, and history is also created by humans, and it has nothing to do with the so-called eternal beings.”

"No." Salomon shook his head.Dinner time made him quite relaxed, but the good time was always short. The guards Hammurabi and Amon who had been waiting for a long time joined the team quietly as they passed by. The tall, broad body and heavy armor did not hinder them. soft, silent movements.The emperor took a document very naturally, and then pressed a ring on the inscription. Laura briefly glimpsed the content of the document, which seemed to be about the placement plan of the mid-section anti-missile equipment.

"Incarnation ritual," Bayoneta said, "not exactly technology."

"The Celestials."

She is very excited.Richard Crawford, whose father has been chasing the mystery of the Immortals, is the closest she's come to an answer.In Paititi, she witnessed the limit of supernatural power harm, the whole planet is just an inconspicuous dust under the feet of monsters fed by supernatural energy, and Kama Taj is the city wall blocking those monsters with flesh and blood.

"Not now, I think you have some more important battlefields to deal with." Salomon said, "The supreme mage has not returned, and Karma Taj's defense is empty. I need your strength, dear witches, our enemies Infiltrating the world, Karma Taj needs you."

"Why are you paying attention to this now?"

"I think Miss Crawford needs some information about the Red Dragon Way after dinner, the wet-fabricated kind."

The emperor and the witch had warned her that it was the source of destruction in this universe, and they would use human flesh and blood to stop this corruption.Ghosts, witchcraft or whatever, Lara Croft still feels uncomfortable recalling the close encounters in the Karma Taj library.It feels like the respiratory system and digestive system are inflamed, and the lesions are churning together in the body. The feeling is disgusting.

There was silence around the dining table, only Milia and the Cheshire cat were still chewing their food.Even though the library of the Shadow Witch is not as rich as that of Karma Taj, as a well-read witch, Beunita and Joan of Arc have also read related literature.Even Wanda Maximoff, who was immersed in the delicious food, stopped. When she was at Straker Castle, she heard about the first, second and third comings, which were disasters beyond human imagination. Part of the human population became extinct simply because the Celestial Group regarded human beings as a genetic research project to study the impact of the first coming—to be precise, Salomon’s expectations for the human population were also based on the first On the basis of Advent, he determined that the human race has unlimited potential to become a race that surpasses all races in the galaxy and become the destiny.

"She is one of the tools of the Celestials, the guardian of the genetic engineering of the Celestials." Salomon took a deep drag on the cigarette, and then extinguished it in the ashtray.He picked up a piece of fudge and popped it into his mouth, wiping the sweetness of the herbal ointment from his tongue. "I found and tracked her many years ago, trying to figure out her purpose and thoughts, but now I find her worthy of attention. She and her kind."

On the other side of the corridor stood not wise men, but warriors.Compared with the wise men who left their words and wisdom in history, those warriors seemed extremely strange, but she still recognized some of them.Unrivaled sculpting depicting banners lifted by the breeze, elaborate plate armor, swords and softly feminine facial features, this is Joan of Arc.The ancient armor, the one-handed sword and spear inserted in the corpse, the longbow in hand, and the horseshoe crushing marble and steel, this is Huo Qubing...

"How important is this woman?" Bayonetta interrupted the topic that was about to go off track.Although she hated Salomon for taking official business to the manor, especially at the dining table, if there was an official business that was so troublesome that Salomon had to take it to the dining table, it meant that it was a big trouble.If he is in trouble, it means that the manor is in trouble, and Bayonetta will never allow anyone to destroy her current peaceful life.

She had seen those warriors in Paititi fight a war that no human being could afford.

"I don't know, and I don't care. I just need to know that she has the ability to do this. There is no need to consider whether she and her kind want to do this. A few kind-hearted Eternals can't do it for self-satisfaction. I feel sorry for sacrificing any five innocent lives, and any meaningless sacrifice for the continuation of the human race is a waste." The cold words spit out from Perfect's lips, and the atmosphere at the table changed accordingly.Laura Crawford doesn't know what the Eternals are and what the Celestials are, and she doesn't even know the era when the gods walked on the earth in the conversation, but she can still hear some resistance and hatred from those words .

"Unless you can sign a contract to seal part of your knowledge, like those high-level books in the Karma Taj library. I allow you to enter because many knowledge in the library cannot be opened without high-level authorization." The emperor. Deliver the signed document to the Praetorian Guard.He was not offended by Lara Croft's tone, but continued to explain in a gentle tone. "Knowledge is a weapon and must be in the right hands. Imagine what our world would be like today if the German Third Reich gained the knowledge to build a nuclear bomb during World War II through someone other than Oppenheimer? ’ he said.

--------------

"You can't see that part of history for a while."

"No matter what the Eternals think, they will never be able to stand up to their masters. Since we should eliminate the threat in advance, I will not let the lives of human soldiers be spilled on meaningless battlefields."

"Why doesn't she summon their master now?" Joan asked, "if the Eternals want to."

"Could it be that you plan to show me the history of those immortals?"

Laura Crawford can appreciate the martial spirit of this manor. More than once, she has seen the maids put on power armor and train with firearms and cold weapons—she thinks the definition of cold weapons is not accurate.She had seen the roar of chainsaw weapons, sharp serrated blades spinning at speeds invisible to the naked eye, leaving a red-hot, dim glow in the dark night—all warriors of the Emperor faced non-human foes , She had seen it in Paititi in the South American rainforest. Only the high-temperature chainsaw of the chainsaw weapon, which can cut through the armor, can cut the supernatural scales, flesh and bones.

"There is such a group of people living among human beings and guiding the development of human beings. How could I ignore this fact!"

"That's right. Jacob obtained the sacred source and lived for more than 1000 years. He created a brand new sect, established a lost city, and even influenced the process of the Mongolian army's capture of the Principality of Ross to some extent." Laura Crawford took a few quick steps to keep up with the tall, fit figure ahead.The marble statue of Aristotle stands beside the corridor, and with him there are many other wise men with their backs against the dark night sky in Oxfordshire, all of them staring at the archaeologist and the emperor with pale eyes. "If a person has lived from the time of Cesclow to the present, then she has enough time to do things that affect the entire world. The job of an archaeologist is to understand the truth, let future generations know the past and present, and draw lessons from experience. I don't hope to be deceived, and no archaeologist wishes to be deceived."

"Call me Miss Crawford now? Wow, you're colder than I thought, don't worry, I'm not going to get to the bottom of your secrets, I just want to ask if your library has any that I can't borrow Books," Lara Croft said with a smile.The champagne after the dinner will be very relaxing. The female archaeologist does not want to fully immerse herself in this atmosphere. She knows that she does not have a superhuman body, and excessive enjoyment will only make her skills and body too bloated.After the dinner, she managed to rush past the obstructing sisterhood maids, and walked side by side with Salomon in the corridor, "I don't want all the knowledge I have learned to be lies."

"Maybe, we don't know the attitude of the Eternals towards the exiles." Salomon looked serious.The atmosphere around the dining table is still the same, but it is no longer as warm as before. "In any case, destroy that tool, completely cut off the resurrection ceremony of this race, and cut off the possibility of the resurrection of the dark overlord. I must kill them before they summon their masters, because we have no power to deal with their masters now, the past battle Since the gods are dead and impossible to reappear, our chances of winning are low."

"That's called deception, or concealment."

"You treat the history of the Immortals like a nuclear bomb."

"The history of the Eternal Race contains the secrets of the origin of life. About how amino acids in seawater spontaneously undergo entropy reduction activities to form the most primitive genes, about the evolution process of the lack of intelligent races. I believe in free will, and I hope others believe in free will , which is an indispensable courage for the future of the human race."

The Emperor looked down at Lara Croft.

"Yes, this is a lie. Some histories must be forgotten, and there are existences that must be denied. When the vast majority of human beings really come out of the atmosphere and realize the vastness and grandeur of the universe, it is difficult not to lose their enterprising spirit. I hope that human beings believe that Your own ability and courage, rather than praying to aliens or gods from somewhere. I know this is difficult, because the masses are not all rational, but need correct guidance and education. I believe that human beings Potential can conquer the void where even death disappears, and someday we will be able to do it, but before that we need to establish the correct concept and obtain courage from human beings themselves."
