Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

Chapter 220 Origin Stone Science

After a while, Xia Lan said weakly: "It seems that we will also be struck by lightning at that time."

Skadi coiled her long snow-white hair around her shoulders with her fingertips, and said unwillingly: "Then if we didn't take anything from here, didn't that person also take a large piece of material and was attacked?" ?”

"Well, that's true..." Xia Lan rubbed her chin and said, "When they were sampling the ruins, they also exposed the materials of the ruins to the air, but they didn't get hit by 'it' either. It seems This setting does have a threshold."

"Or maybe it has something to do with the type of thing?" he pondered, thinking of a possibility.

——Perhaps the material on the outer wall of the ruins is only used to hide people's eyes and ears. What is really important is the pre-civilization technology components in it. Although it will lose its effect after the law changes, it still retains its special structure and can be detected is its special structure;
And those nano-metals and ordinary materials without special structure are directly destroyed after leaving the environment inside the 'wall', losing their own material science significance, and will no longer be detected.

This idea was unanimously agreed by the two deep-sea hunters, and it seemed to slightly remove the boulder that was pressing on their hearts.

Of course, it's only half a point.

"I'm going to assist them in their research next time. I might be busy. How about the two of you?" he asked.

"Are we?" Skadi tilted his head, looked at the ghost shark beside him, exchanged a riddle that Xia Lan couldn't understand, and said: "Let's just stay here and wait, and try our best to minimize the interaction with their technological knowledge." s contact."

"It's quite thoughtful." Xia Lan praised with a chuckle, patted her buttocks and stood up, waved her hands and said, don't hesitate about that matter, I'll go there first, just don't mess around.

It's okay to say that it's okay to stay for a few days, but in fact he is more anxious than anyone else, and he feels that he doesn't want to waste any time.

After Xia Lan left in a hurry, the two hunters glanced at each other, slid their fingers across the air, and opened their mouths to call out the three-dimensional projection panel of the intelligent system, and described what they wanted on it...

Henna gave the three of them a second-level access to the intelligent system, which can basically cover all aspects of life.

In the top buildings of the former civilization with endless energy, super nanomaterial technology, and super manufacturing technology, it is enough to enjoy the ultra-high-end life that is absolutely untouchable in Agor.

These two people have been thinking about the scene of their new home since watching the half-hour quick construction last night (there were 10 minutes of it being adjusted repeatedly), and now Xia Lan left in a hurry is the time for them to let go of the trouble!

——If you ask what is the perfect life, then the life of "you can get everything you need with a splash of ink" must be on the list.

Forging the power of gods with cold steel and circuits is the ultimate technology brought to mortals.

……

On the other side, Xia Lan came to the research institute and found two researchers who were conducting a preliminary analysis of the energy characteristics of the origin stone.

It looks like they are just getting started.

Currently, there are two points that have been measured: the property of devouring some other energies and matter to self-proliferate, and the property of interlinking with the soul.

The type of energy and matter devoured... After testing, this coincides with the energy and matter required by their "artificial soul material" by 93%. It is estimated that the source stones in nature mainly reproduce by devouring them .

As for the linkage with the soul, it is quite ingenious - the source stone will respond when the "simulated soul" issues instructions, but correspondingly, the "soul matter" carrying the instructions will be absorbed and consumed by the source stone , This is also the nature of origin stones consuming souls.

Seeing the explanation in this regard, Xia Lan showed an expression that she couldn't understand.

Under the watchful eyes of the two, he replied: "When I use the source stone energy every day, I don't incur any consumption in this regard. Unless I am willing to take the initiative to pay for my soul, what I consume is only mental energy."

"Let me correct one point, the origin stone is not a kind of energy, it is actually closer to a kind of substance." Hana said bluntly.

Xia Lan choked, and surrendered, "I know it's a substance, but we're not serious scientists, so please forgive me. I'm used to seeing it as energy, so it's called energy."

Hana paused for a moment, but she didn't get too entangled in this aspect, but continued: "This may be related to your having a complete set of source stone information sequences, and one of these pieces of data may be the one that can produce substitute souls in the soul. sequence of highly efficient delivery of substances."

"...?" Xia Lan was stunned for a few seconds, unable to understand.

Seeing that he didn't understand, Heimdall said: "If it is applied in practice, then you can activate that sequence when it is not important, accumulate a large amount of this transmission material, and be able to break through your usual use of Originium energy at will. The upper limit of power, directly reaching the limit that your will can reach."

"That is to say, if you understand it, you don't need to burn your soul to enter an explosive state."

Xia Lan understood, Xia Lan suddenly realized, Xia Lan's eyes widened.

"*Yan Guo foul language*!"

The two of them ignored Xia Lan's extremely shocking foul language and continued to operate on the panel.

What is going on at this stage is the identification of the type of matter that seems to be a certain kind of matter that does not participate in most electromagnetic interactions, does not interact with photons, but forms an important part in the soul.

That kind of matter cannot be affected by macroscopic scientific means, and it involves the quantum field that Xia Lan doesn't know much about. He can only understand that he can use "virtual soul" as a convenient means to affect that kind of matter...

As for the birth of the "virtual soul", it is necessary to build a supernatural environment simulation device that is extremely laborious, and then strengthen an electromagnetic interaction force that can affect it to a macroscopically measurable level, and finally carry out extremely inefficient interference, manipulate.

Of course, building those things is actually not difficult for this civilization that is supposed to be officially out of the galaxy.

"Speaking of which, how did you discover it in the sky? Did you communicate with it at that time? How powerful is it?" Xia Lan who was sitting on the side asked suddenly.

"I don't know." This answer made him look stunned, and then a projected document appeared beside him, and he took it over.

"We can only refer to that being using terms like 'it'.

Anyone who understands it cannot escape its vision, even if that information exists only in memory.

It is strong, it surpasses our civilization in latitude, but it is not invincible, please believe that the opportunity will come. "

It was just three sentences, but Xia Lan frowned when she saw it, and after flipping up and down twice, she couldn't find any more information, so she couldn't hold back anymore—how could this thing be so mysterious? what!

The last time he saw a similar setting was in a novel about cultivating immortals - as long as someone still remembers the existence of a certain boss, then that boss can live forever, and can come and go freely in people's memory, the only one who kills The way to kill him is to follow the cause and effect to erase all those who remember him.

Although this "it" is definitely not as outrageous as in Xiuxian's novels, the current appearance is scary enough.

Xia Lan fell silent for a moment. On the contrary, the two former civilization survivors who really belonged to the characters in the play have been steadily manipulating the experimental equipment and constantly correcting the experimental data with the assistance of the intelligent system.

Heimdall is responsible for analyzing the information and substance types contained in the source stone, and conducting comparative deciphering; while Henna is responsible for finding the transmitter that can interact with the source stone most efficiently.

The progress of the two of them is independent and complementary to each other. In terms of the complexity of the subject, it is likely that Henna made a breakthrough first.

"Speaking of which, let me write to you all the things I can see, as well as the original spell runes I translated before, and the ancient Chinese textual textual research book." Xia Lan patted her thigh and said, planning to find for herself Do something.

"What's that?" Hana asked distractedly, but her hands still kept moving.

They haven't heard the word yet, so their translation hasn't been entered in the language assistance system.

"It's probably our Originium subject whose main purpose is application." Xia Lan replied, and suddenly sighed again.

"Sigh...it's a pity that I'm not interested in the cutting-edge fields of Originium Science. Although I had the resources at the time, I didn't have the energy to learn them. The perspective of the civilization shaped by the origin stone."

"That's a real shame," Heimdall said.

Xia Lan spread her hands, created a new file on the projection terminal, and then began to silently write the "Introduction to Classical Magic Nodes" in a common language—this is not difficult for him who can mobilize memory resources at will.

……

Time in the ecological park: 9:37.

After silently writing a chapter, Xia Lan slapped her thigh abruptly, and suggested: "You check, if there are any suspected researchers and scholars among the group of people who came earlier, you can usually understand it by looking at their trajectories. their respective positions."

The two men took a precise operation, and then Heimdall called out a stereoscopic projection, set a lot of screening conditions on the smart terminal, and quickly selected out of the dormant Terrans. A few pictures were sent to Xia Lan.

Looking at the peaceful four people, Xia Lan was dumbfounded, and then pointed out the first and third of them and said: "These two scholars have participated in the research on 'Gate', so they should know a little more."

"I'll leave it to you to negotiate. Most of the conventional means won't make them let go of our wariness. You don't want us to take measures to read their souls directly, do you?" Hana turned her head and said.

"Well... okay." He nodded slightly, without evasion.

He secretly squeezed his sweat. If he didn't gain the respect of the two of them, then what happened to him would be that he would be arrested without any explanation. If he didn't agree, he might even be forced to read his soul.

"Sure enough, strength and knowledge are good things..." he thought, followed the guidance of the intelligent system to an empty room, and after waiting for a while, he noticed the approach of a person exuding the energy of the origin stone.

"It's still a mildly infected person..."

He couldn't help muttering, and secretly calculated the other party's current state - I don't know what kind of medicine they used for him in the previous civilization, the origin stone in his body was in a rather low and inert state, and the "amplitude" of fluctuations was lower than the average per capita of infectious diseases in half.

While Xia Lan was perceiving it carefully, the wall behind the table in front of him also unfolded to both sides in fragments, revealing a middle-aged gray-haired Li Boli man who was full of bewilderment behind him.

The mental state of the other party seems to be quite low, as if he is still in a deep sleep.

Several rays of light guided the man to sit down on the chair behind the negotiating table, and then Xia Lan noticed a ring similar to an origin stone monitor on the other's upper arm.

A few flashes of light flashed between the lines on its shell, and then Xia Lan could see - the opponent's state began to change.

The "recovery" took about 30 seconds. When everything came back to his senses, the person in front of him was already looking at Xia Lan who was sitting across the negotiating table with a little trembling.

But that trembling didn't seem to be fear, but...excitement.

Xia Lan, who had captured this emotion, touched her chin and asked in common language, "What should I call it?"

The other party looked at Xia Lan with a little more frightening enthusiasm.

Seeing Xia Lan's vigilant expression, the other party quickly nodded and said, "Lin Nan, just call me by my name."

"People from Yan Kingdom?" Xia Lan raised her eyebrows slightly.

The other party was stunned for a moment, and tentatively asked: "You... already know the situation of Terra from other people?"

Xia Lan couldn't help laughing, and explained: "Didn't you find that someone opened the gate of the ruins and entered the ruins secretly?"

"Ah?!" The other party's eyes widened immediately, but he was shocked but also showed a look of disappointment.

It took Lin Nan a long time to take a few deep breaths, and asked in a deep voice: "Then... have you seen anything meaningful in the early exploration here, for example, the place we are now is controlled by you?"

He stopped using honorifics all of a sudden, this detail made Xia Lan very uncomfortable.

Xia Lan pondered for a while, intending to deliberately whet the other party's appetite.

"What do you do? I mean the field of scientific research." As he asked, he cast a weak coercion boosting spell on himself.

Lin Nan, who has been in the academic circle for decades, will naturally not lack the ability to observe words and feelings, and he can't help but sweat in his heart because he was too excited and aggressive just now-after all, he is now on someone else's territory, even if he has "value" , and cater to each other a lot.

Therefore, although he was very anxious about the status quo, Lin Nan still agreed in cooperation: "I have the title of an expert in 'ancient source stone' in the crisis contract, and I almost do this kind of work. This time I participated in the exploration of the ruins The first goal is to find the origin of the origin stone, but I didn't expect that there is not even a trace of the origin stone here."

"Are you doing research on origin stones? No wonder you're infected with ore disease." Xia Lan said with her tongue, and then got down to business: "I have a mission to study origin stones here. Do you want to participate?"

"Most of the forms are different from the traditional science on the Terra continent, and what you have to do is to assist the people here to conduct origin stone research from the perspective you know. There should be no shortage of research resources."

When Xia Lan mentioned the ore disease infection, Lin Nan's face seemed to flash a glimmer of gloom and anger.

And Xia Lan naturally recorded this emotion on record.

Lin Nan showed a puzzled look, but out of the professionalism of radical scientific researchers, he immediately agreed: "Yes."

Seeing that he was so straightforward, Xia Lan couldn't help raising her eyebrows and said, "Aren't you afraid that this research is used to invade Terra Continent, or that the owner here is the real invader?"

"Hmph." Lin Nan snorted lightly, and said disdainfully, "If that's the case, I'd rather be wishing for it."

Although curious about why the other party had such an attitude, Xia Lan decided to explore slowly in the future.

He raised his hand and slid it in the air, a panel was pulled out out of thin air, and then the wall behind Lin Nan opened again, and the familiar light appeared beside him again.

Lin Nan, who still had a vague impression of this, was silent for a few seconds, glanced at Xia Lan again, and left with them.

"As expected, people who dare to come here...except for money, they are all abnormal people." Xia Lan couldn't help complaining, waiting for another younger researcher.

……

A few minutes after Lin Nan left.

"——Bang bang bang!" The sound of flesh fists beating gold and iron resounded through the gap in the slowly opening door.

And Xia Lan also got a report immediately - the other party was immune to the soul interaction inhibitor and recovered in advance.

But it's just... a little too spiritual.
