The four of them walked towards the Dome in pairs.

Perhaps because of the plague, the streets were much quieter than ever. The doors of every house were closed, and occasional coughing could be heard coming through the windows.

"It's terrible. Jiang Xuance's voice was muffled, "Enron almost never has infectious diseases because of the climate, which also causes Enron's medical level to lag behind." Once there was an outbreak of the plague, Enron had little power to fight back. ”

"Are you uncomfortable?" Qianzhou and Jiang Xuance walked side by side.

"No doctor will be indifferent to this, right?" Jiang Xuance asked rhetorically, "Whether it is an ordinary person or an extraordinary person, since he stepped into medicine, he will put curing patients in the first place.

As we once pledged: I put the health of my patients first to the best of my ability. Not to be biased on the basis of his beliefs, gender, nationality, ethnicity, or any other factors. I will give the utmost respect to human life. Anytime, anywhere, even if I'm in danger. I will not use my knowledge to go against justice and morality.

I don't know what will happen next, but I believe that every healer must have revered life in his heart when he makes his vows. ”

"It's a rarity. After you became a transcendent, you still keep this vow in your heart. ”

"It's better to say that because you become a transcendent, you should abide by it, right?" Jiang Xuance touched his chest, "I know very well how heavy the knowledge and mysteries I know are. If it was only for the sake of killing and destruction, a [Dragongate] level healer would be comparable to a [Heavenly Ladder]. ”

This is not alarmist.

A transcendent being able to hide in the crowd, be incomparably familiar with the anatomy of the human body, and be able to craft biological weapons with his bare hands. If you really want to be evil, it's too easy.

Thinking about it this way, it is really not easy for human civilization to persist until now. If you don't think about it, maybe it's because of the existence of people like Jiang Xuance that this world won't be so bad.

"Qianzhou, what are you thinking?" Seeing that Qianzhou was stunned, Jiang Xuance called him twice.

Qianzhou smiled: "I'm just suddenly a little curious about White Deer Academy, if I have the opportunity, I must take a look." ”

Judging from the three people he came into contact with, White Deer Academy is not a place where knowledge is just taught. The cultivation of virtue seems to be superior.

"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner then. Jiang Xuance said that he was very welcome.

"No, no, no, I don't think it's better for you not to come. Pei Xing's face was strange.

"Why?"

"Because there will be a lot of guys who want to 'communicate' with you. ”

“？”

............

The footsteps of a few people were very fast, and after a while, they left the city and went all the way up along the dome bay.

"Dome Bay is definitely not a natural formation, and I noticed a lot of strange things about Dome Bay when I was fishing in the past few days. Pei Xing said as he walked.

"Fishing? Do you mean expressing an opinion that is contrary to the majority in public, and then expressing support and waiting for someone to refute it?"

Pei Xing's face was black: "Although I don't really understand what you're talking about, I know very well that what we're talking about is not the same thing." ”

"Ahem, don't worry about the details. After playing the meme, Qianzhou quickly returned to normal, and at the same time made a gesture for you to continue.

"In terms of geography alone, Enron is unlikely to have a Changliu River. Even the probability of a seasonal river is unlikely. But there is a dome bay with a considerable flow of water. ”

The other three nodded, affirming Pei Xing's statement.

So, Pei Xing continued: "And the river channel of Qiongwan is very straight, with almost no arc. Occasional bends should also occur during subsequent geological changes. Therefore, it is very likely that Dome Bay is an artificial river, which was completely straight at the beginning. ”

Whether "artificial" here refers to ordinary people or the transcendent is debatable.

"I've heard a few about Enron's legends. Pei Xing added, "Creating things out of thin air is at least a means that only the fourth-order [kingdom] has. And a thousand years have passed, what will Dome Bay do?"

"Think of it as the power of the kingdom. After all, we are not a kingdom, and we cannot understand that realm. Jiang Qinghan expressed his opinion.

No, Pei Xing is right.

Qianzhou said in his heart.

The kingdom is indeed immensely powerful, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a god in its own realm. But the cost of maintaining the Dome for a thousand years is definitely a terrifying number. What's more, this [Kingdom] is no longer in sight, and it is impossible for the Dome to last so long without replenishment.

"Have you ever walked to the source of the Dome Bay?" asked Qianzhou to Pei Xing and Jiang Xuance.

"Nope. Both of them shook their heads, "The Dome is much longer than we thought, and the source is not something that can be reached in a day or two." ”

"Is that so. Qianzhou muttered and put the matter aside first. After all, there is more important things now.

A few people walked forward a little further, and the river in the Dome Bay was still flowing slowly. Low shrubs grow along both sides of the river, and occasionally a few herds can be seen.

It is not for nothing that the people of Enron call it the Mother River.

After the occasional rainy day, Dome Bay was almost the only source of water for Enron. All agriculture and animal husbandry are dependent on the Dome Bay to be able to operate normally. If something goes wrong with the Dome, the consequences are unimaginable.

After that, it became more sparsely populated. It would take a long time to see a family – mostly herders with small livestock.

"How far are you going to go, and how are you sure of the approximate location?" asked Qianshu.

Pei Xing took out a gauge similar to a pocket watch from his pocket and said, "Use this." ”

It was a round instrument with a dial engraved on a scale from zero to thirty. A red hand is pointing right at zero.

"[Simple Depth Gauge]. By default, the depth of the present world is zero, and it will react when there is an abyss rule that causes the depth to change. Pei Xing explained to Qianzhou.

"Is this thing reliable?" said Qianzhou, skeptical of the rudimentary meter.

"If you're comparing it to a large meter that occupies several rooms, it's definitely a bit of a disadvantage. After all, you can't always carry that thing with you. And this is already a special version of the academy, which has further improved the accuracy compared to the civilian version on the market. If it really doesn't work, I can't help it. Pei Xing spread his hands.

"What if it really doesn't work?" Chishu habitually prepared for the worst.

"That's why I called you. If the instrument doesn't work, you can only rely on your perception, like you said 'tool man'. ”

Qianzhou rolled his eyes: "Are you so confident in me? I'm not a transcendent of the perception system, so I can't guarantee that I will find anything." ”

"It's not just about having faith in you. Jiang Qinghan walked over, "A long time ago, there was a research report that the perception of transcendents with large source mass and those who are good at controlling essentia is stronger than that of ordinary transcendentals. The reason is probably that they are more sensitive to essentia and have a stronger soul. It just so happens that you have both. ”

"But as far as the results are concerned, they still treat me like a tool. ”

Jiang Qinghan couldn't help but laugh: "Don't dwell on this stalk anymore, please shut up as a tool man." ”

Several other people laughed too, and the originally oppressive atmosphere was lightened.

Several people sped up their journey. Even without using the associated abilities, the Transcendents can travel much faster than the average person. In just one hour, several people walked more than forty kilometers.

"What's going on?, has there been any change in the meter?" Jiang Xuance asked Pei Xing with a slight gasp.

Feeling such a long way in one breath, even if he is an extraordinary person, he feels that it is enough. What's more, he is also a researcher of the Interior School.

Pei Xing narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the dial for a while. After a while he spoke, "It seems to have changed, and it seems to have not changed." ”

Aren't you talking nonsense? Qianzhou complained in his heart.

And Jiang Xuance had already spit out the groove: "Didn't you say the same as not saying it?"

Pei Xing was also a little embarrassed, and a little red could be faintly seen on his wheat-colored skin: "Isn't there no way for me?" This portable gauge was originally used to determine the approximate depth in the abyss, and it is characterized by stability and durability. You're probing subtle changes in depth in the present world, and of course the accuracy is not enough. ”

"Stop arguing. Jiang Qinghan quieted the two of them, and then stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of air.

Jiang Qinghan put his hand back in front of him and held it up, as if he was holding something invisible. Then a faint layer of blue light shone on the white skin of her palm, like a canopy at dawn.

As Jiang Qinghan retracted his five fingers, he shook it hard. A faint wisp of purple mist suddenly appeared and then disappeared suddenly.

The speed and color are so pale that one wonders if it's the hallucinations in your own eyes - no, maybe you don't even see a glance.

"Did you just see that?" Jiang Qinghan let go of his palm and looked back at Qianzhou.

"It's not very clear, just a tiny shadow. Qian Zhou pinched his chin and said, "Maybe you can try again." ”

Qianzhou walked to the river, reached into his pocket with his left hand and buckled the [Dark Star], and pointed to the river with his right hand.

The essentia flowed through the whole body of Qianzhou, and then merged into the [Dark Star]. Law and reason became incomparably clear at this moment, turning into a strange force that interfered with reality.

"Whoa. "It's the sound of the river rubbing and flowing.

A turbulent current suddenly broke off on the calm surface of the river, hovering in mid-air for a few laps before surging towards Qianzhou—not that Qianzhou wanted to show off his skills. It's just that because I'm not skilled, I simply didn't control it well.

The river merged into a water ball with a diameter of more than one meter in front of Qianzhou, and the surface shook irregularly, as if it was about to burst at any moment.

Not to mention a few others, even Qianzhou himself involuntarily took a step back.

Qianzhou's five fingers were retracted, and the water balloon was suddenly compressed by an invisible force. The temperature of the river continues to rise, and gradually it begins to boil, making a "gurgling" sound. Boiling steam kept coming out, "snorting" in the air.

As the steam dissipated little by little, the rest of the things appeared in front of everyone.
