I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 340 Science is the process of replacing the gods

Nico was also staring at the painting, with white mid-length hair and an unusually familiar face.

Except for the difference in attire, everything seems to match the existence they met in the bar before.

"The tavern owner?" Nauda said uncertainly.

But then, she nodded and said, "The person in this photo is really exactly the same as that tavern owner!"

Nico didn't speak because he thought so too.

After a pause, he said, "It's not exactly the same, but they may be the same person. The reason why we came to Sky Island is because he guided us all the way."

Nawuda recalled it for a while, nodded and said, "It seems to be like this."

"So Sky Island is his?"

"This tower should be the core of this building complex." Nico said, "So, maybe it is like this."

"Then what is his purpose?" Nawuda asked puzzled, "Is it just for us to come here?"

Nico also had doubts in his eyes.

"Or, because it feels safer here, let's hide here for a while?" she said.

After a pause, she made a suggestion, "Otherwise. Let's go find those two dwarves? I don't think they look like bad guys."

"Go to other places to see if there is any other information." Nico said.

They turned around and tried to open the door of the office. With the sound of branches, the door opened slowly.

However, to the astonishment of Nico and Nauda, ​​behind the door is no longer the long corridor they just entered, but a spiral downward staircase leading to nowhere.

Nico is confident in his memory, so there's no doubt that this should be the place's problem.

"Is there something wrong with my memory?" Nauda said a little unconfidently, "It wasn't when we came in."

"Your memory is fine."

Nico grabbed Nauda's wrist, who hadn't figured out the situation, and dragged her slowly down the spiral staircase.

The staircase had no windows, so it was very dark, but there were oil lamps on both sides, and the flickering lights illuminated the path under their feet, but it was impossible to see where it led.

Although Nico is very calm now, there are ripples in his heart.

He had imagined the scene where he found Sky Island countless times, and envisioned the troubles he encountered on the way to find Sky Island.

But I never thought that I would land on Sky Island so soon.

Climb to this miracle that was found by countless people who exhausted their wealth a few years ago
In order to prove his uncle's innocence, he collected a lot of information about Sky Island.

Some people say that the island of Skye contains treasures that are as rich as an enemy.

Some people also say that Sky Island is the residence of God, and if you can reach Sky Island, you can become a messenger of God.

Others say that it is a land of eternal life, and those who land on the island can obtain eternity.

Nico didn't know the source of these messages, and he didn't quite believe them.

However, what he knew was that if he could land on Sky Island, he would definitely get something.
At least, if the secret of making such a huge island floating can be known, it will definitely be a huge leap for human civilization.

He can now be sure that Sky Island may not be a naturally occurring thing, but belongs to a certain existence.
Along the way, Nico observed the traces left by the years in various parts of the castle. This place is definitely not something that was left in the past ten years, but should be counted in hundreds of years.

Therefore, the possibility that someone boarded the airship and took it as his own after the advent of the airship era can also be ruled out.

Such a castle can never be built by transporting building materials by airship.

Soon, they saw light that did not belong to the lamp.

The narrow staircase also began to widen, and they came to a doorless porch.

And the scene behind the porch made Nico and Nauda stand there in a daze.

At that moment, they even thought that they had crossed an era and came to the future.

Because everything in front of me is too sci-fi.

This is a factory building with a large area, and it can even park two A380s.

There are a lot of boxy machines in many areas, with wires as thick as water pipes plugged into them, and on the wires, bursts of halos representing energy transmission flicker.

It is a supercomputer of neuron parallel network technology derived from artificial human neuron technology.

Compared with ordinary computers, the advantage of this technology is that the computing operation of this technology does not generate too much heat, because it is not powered, which means that the computing power can be stacked infinitely.

This is not the research room that White and others have visited, but another construction factory, which is much larger than that research room, and is used to build some large-scale machinery, which also belongs to Tony.

The most eye-catching thing is the huge machinery in the middle of this factory.

The humanoid structure is about eight meters high, with recurved feet, the hardcore structure with edges and corners, the perfect body proportions, and the unknown weapon on the back, everything is full of a mechanical beauty.

Nico can swear that this is definitely the most beautiful mechanical creation he has ever seen in his life, not one of them.

No engineer would keep his cool looking at something like this.

Even if it doesn't move, just looking at it here makes people feel happy.

If this thing could really move, Nico couldn't even imagine how powerful it would be.

He also couldn't imagine how much torque a diesel engine would need to drive such a big guy.

This is a mecha, but obviously, Nico didn't have the concept of a mecha in this era.

He came to the side of the mecha in a daze, and stretched out his hand to touch its shell.

His brain began to run rapidly, trying to disassemble the mecha with the information collected by naked eyes, and began to understand the design concept and structure of the mecha.

The anti-curved feet are supposed to make the machine run faster, jump higher, have stronger explosive power, and take into account the stability of the ground. The wolf is similar to the anti-foot.

In addition, he also saw something deeper, he saw the mechanical knee and other major joints.

Whether such a humanoid machine can move, the movable structure of the knees and other joints is extremely important.

He saw a special design very similar to the structure of human knees.

To sum it up in words, Nico thinks this should be called a "bionic structure".

His complexion is a little rosy, and there is an airship factory near his house, so he has seen many mechanical structures.

But the technology contained in all those machines is not as good as one ten-thousandth of this mechanical creation.

There is at least a generation gap of hundreds of years between the two!

This is a creation of the future, Nico thought.

There is no doubt that in this era, no existence can create such a miracle!
Or, it is the technology of a more advanced and developed civilization independent of human civilization.

"click~"

At this time, the voice from the top of the mech interrupted his thinking.

He raised his head slowly, accompanied by a sound similar to gas gushing.

The chest of this mechanical creation was slowly opened, and a half-century old man with gray hair, but whose body shape and mental state seemed to be in his 50s was lying there - that should be the control cabin of this mechanical creation.

He jumped down from the cockpit, then walked onto the shelf on the side of the mechanical creation, and opened the head of the mechanical creation. He frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, completely ignoring their existence .

Then, he looked down at Nico.

"Give me the robotic arm on your right."

Nico reacted, he subconsciously looked around and saw a mechanical creation that looked like an "arm" on the table beside him.

He picked it up and handed it to him.

Tony took the mechanical arm and pressed it against his wrist, and the mechanical arm suddenly opened to wrap his arm inside.

Then, he stretched the robotic arm in, as if he was repairing something, but Nico couldn't see it from this angle.

As time passed bit by bit, Nico felt that he couldn't remain silent like this, so he said, "Did you encounter any problems?"

Tony looked down at Nico, with a playful look on his face, "Why, do you want to help me?"

"No, I'm just asking, I know that such technology is far beyond my comprehension." Nico said.

"You're pretty self-aware," Tony said.

While repairing, he said, "This mecha has a human-like brain, it has its own thinking ability, processing ability and judgment ability, it can even speak and communicate with you.

In a sense, it should be regarded as a kind of life. "

Tony knew the background of Nico's era, so he didn't use any technical terms such as neurons, but just explained in words he could understand.

He closed the head cover of the mecha.

The mecha's eyes suddenly lit up with a faint brilliance.

"Mark—Dragon Hunter." Tony said to the mecha.

Immediately, human voices came from inside the mecha.

"Yes, master."

"Turn on the airframe self-test," he said.

The mech immediately responded.

"The airframe self-inspection starts, the status system is intact, the flight system is intact, the navigation system is intact, the flight stability system is corrected, the weapon system is complete, and the power system is charged to 70.00% six
The self-inspection of the airframe is completed, and the overall integrity of the airframe is 80.00%, with complete combat capability. "

Not to mention possessing complete intelligence, but without intelligence, such machines are absolutely advanced things for people in the 21st century.

What's more, it is the end of the nineteenth century, when the second industrial revolution has just begun.

It is difficult for Nico and Nauda to describe their feelings in words at this moment, and this kind of shock that seems to have crossed the era cannot be shared with anyone.

"Mechanism. Life." Nico whispered the concept given by Tony, "Isn't creating life a power that can only be possessed by a god?"

Tony snorted and laughed.

"Science is the process of usurping the power of the gods and replacing them."
