Giant of Light: I am the Old Ones

Chapter 27
During the day, Pearson and the patrol team arrived first.

In this era when the functions of security personnel are still unclear, patrol officers often have excessive power and naturally have to shoulder excessive responsibilities.

Since it was just around the weekend, all the workers had a day off to connect with the weekend.

We dare not leave more than 300 healthy young people in this dangerous place without clarifying the source of the danger.

If those alien cultists had already set up a huge sacrificial formation under the entire factory, the blessings and even the summoned monsters would not be able to handle even Amanda, who can use the compound form and Pelio rays. of.

Blake took Amanda to meet the people from the academy.

The college, without any other title, is simply called the college.

It is said that after a group of ambitious people founded the academy 100 years ago, they invented many technologies that were decades ahead of the original development trajectory of the times and spread them.

On the premise of mastering technology, the academy never interferes in politics. Therefore, various countries allow the academy to set up branches to promote each other.

Most of the talents engaged in science and technology have a broad mind and broad vision. After achieving achievements, they also have some say in the influence of their own country. Over time, the whole world has entered a strange period of calm.No large-scale war broke out for a long time, it was just small fights.

This is something that none of the religious forces in the past were able to accomplish. Rather, it would be better to say that because of different beliefs, there are more fights.

But the development of science has only one kind of belief and pursuit.

But the strange thing is that most of these technologies are related to novel ideas rather than being restricted by hard requirements for materials or processing standards.

In other words, even if the technology is beyond the current era, it is still reasonable, and no strange flaws or things that cannot be explained by science can be found.

If it weren't for this, Amanda would have doubted whether a senior time traveler had already arrived in this world and left some precious legacy.

This ability to accurately control the limitations of the times while still developing technology must be an obsessive-compulsive disorder, or it can only be achieved under the premise of some huge constraints.

Otherwise, he really couldn't understand who could be so restrained and able to endure a technological era that was backward for him.

After all, science and technology are the primary productive forces.

It can't be possible. There must be something like a sophon in this era that is hindering the scientific and technological development of human civilization.

Amanda thought it was impossible when she thought about it. As she was thinking about it, they had already arrived at the gate of the factory.

There was the sound of tires touching the ground from the distant road, and there seemed to be the roar of some kind of engine.

This isn't right. Although steam trains already exist in this era, they mainly circulate between major cities and will not reach a small place like theirs.

It is said that in big cities such as New York and San Francisco, there are trams that can be used by residents within the city to commute, but they still need to rely on the existence of tracks to travel.

The internal combustion engine may have been considered by the college. After all, Amanda still remembered a piece of news in the newspaper about the college organizing an exploration team to find a liquid resource.

Could it be, it’s really a car?

Amanda felt a little excited in her heart. He was looking forward to seeing some products that were in line with his original understanding of the world, so that he could feel that technology could develop to a level close to the 21st century in his lifetime. At least video games could be made!
Not long after, a "car" with a shape barely acceptable to Amanda drove over the road?
Being able to see the structure of an internal combustion engine is the strangest thing.

Which car would directly expose the internal combustion engine structure to the outside?It's not a question of whether it's feasible or not, but Amanda has never seen this form in her previous life and cannot accept it for the time being.

Stylistically, the action of the levers and pistons of this internal combustion engine was too close to that of an old steam train, and it was unmasked and loud.

Then there are the thick tires on both sides, and behind it is a regular body and cockpit, with no space left for luggage in the back.

However, in any case, compared to the world's first car which was a small three-wheeler, this car has slightly improved the details and is already very similar to later cars.

Amanda thought to herself, watching the car slowly come to a stop.

The small interior space can only accommodate two people, one of whom is also the driver.

He stretched his head and looked at the road behind him, but there was nothing there.

In other words, these are the only two people sent by the academy to deal with things suspected of evil gods' beliefs.

The door of the car was opened, and a middle-aged man in a trench coat and a top hat got out of the car, dressed in standard British aristocratic attire.It would be more similar if he was wearing white gloves and leaning on a staff.

On the other side, a handsome young man with short hair and white work clothes jumped down neatly, lowered his body and lifted two suitcases, one large and one small, from under the driving position.

"You must be Professor Abtis of the college. I have to say that the innovation ability of the college is amazing. I only heard about this kind of car at the company headquarters, but I didn't expect to see it in person so early."

Today's general manager Woch seemed to be particularly enthusiastic. He hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and flattered him without leaving a trace.

Abtis stood still and the two shook hands.

Abtis took his luggage from the short-haired young man next to him, looked around, and then spoke:
"Everyone, my name is Abtis Moredo. You can call me Morai or Abu. There is no need to pronounce too many words. This is my student, Qi Wen. I am here to confirm the location of Louisiana. Are cult beliefs making a comeback? Looking at it now, you must have encountered those supernatural forces."

From the moment he saw the patrols, Abtis knew that the situation had deteriorated again compared to the letter sent by the mayor.

As a student, Qi Wen stood quietly behind his teacher and did not actively observe the people in front of him.

Amanda paid more attention to Qi Wen's face, not because of orientation, but because good-looking faces always require more glances.The hero sees the same thing. Faced with a person of the same level as himself, he is still worthy of some attention.

After all, Diga's appearance was written into the setting of a handsome man. I can become Diga. Although I only turn Diga's face into a shadow to cover my face for the time being, I also have the face of a handsome man after all. .

That's right, that's it!
Amanda then calmed down and followed Blake patiently, watching them walk to the reception room together.

Alas, no matter what place or culture, courtesy is inevitable, and Professor Abtis does not seem to be such a noble person.

Unlike the situation in the TV series where you have to treat guests to dinner first when encountering such a disaster, you have already asked to check for the abnormality first.

"Omega, it is now confirmed that Elena is a servant of the Kirialodians, but we can't see anything wrong with General Manager Walker. So, this professor from the academy can feel something supernatural The power? After all, he should be specialized in dealing with things like the belief in evil gods, so he must have two brushes in his hands."
