Chapter 568: The Era (Finale)
Of course, Xu Xingkong just said this, and didn't expect the archdeacon to react to this, in the eyes of the archdeacon, I am afraid that there are only two kinds of people in this world, one is beneficial to China, and the other is unfavorable to China, and that's it.
Xu Xingkong quickly waved his hand and smacked his lips and said:
"So, we've passed your test with the archdeacon?"
"It's not a test, it's just a confirmation, the two of you are standing here now already speaks for themselves, in this world, there are only three people who have come here alive, including the two of you. ”
Xu Xingkong subconsciously looked at the huge library of books, and said in a somewhat complicated tone:
"Shouldn't we be honored?"
"Indeed, the two of you just came in with me, maybe you haven't realized it yet, maybe we should be more grand?"
Xu Xingkong smiled lightly:
"That's not necessary, but the seniors brought us here like this, we are actually very surprised, this is not only a huge treasure, but also a huge responsibility, to be honest, the pressure is huge!"
The archdeacon smiled slightly, nodded and said:
"Everyone has a responsibility, you and I are the same, but I must admit that the responsibility you face now is more difficult than it seems to us, and this is not my deliberate shirking of duty, our duty as grave keepers is only to protect these precious materials and protect those who have fallen asleep. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded in understanding, and suddenly thought of something and asked:
"Since the predecessors of our human race are guarded, then there should be those of the demon race, right?"
The archdeacon nodded:
"Of course, however, you also know that some of the demon clan's powerful tempers are very strange, such as the Thunder Swallowing Beast, which has always been a loner, with almost no companions of the same clan and no friends, who do you think he can trust?"
Xu Xingkong pondered for a moment, and couldn't help laughing:
"Then it is really a courageous choice for him to choose to re-enter reincarnation!"
The archdeacon smiled and said:
"I don't think you will make a decision right away, you can take a closer look at the information here, and I will also teach the two of you how to enter and exit, and the food and accommodation are in my yard, no problem, right?"
Xu Xingkong and Lin Xiaofeng changed their eyes, then turned to the archdeacon and asked:
"That's fine, but I have some questions I would like to ask the archdeacon. ”
The archdeacon waved his hand and said:
"Don't worry, we must be together for a while, I will say everything you want to know. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded:
"Yes, but I have a question I want to get to the bottom of first. ”
The archdeacon smiled knowingly:
"You two want to know why such an important choice was entrusted to you, right?"
Xu Xingkong and Lin Xiaofeng nodded together, both pairs of clear eyes looked at the archdeacon, and the archdeacon restrained his smile and replied seriously:
"First of all, someone has to make this decision, so why don't you find someone who is approved by the dragon vein?Secondly, although there are quite a few masters among our tomb guards whose strength has reached the soul refining stage, and it can be said that they are the strongest group of people on the earth now, our strength is obtained by special techniques, and we follow an atypical cultivation method in ancient times, which is different from the various cultivation methods that are inherited from the current lineage, and we do not have the potential to improve. ”
"What do you mean by senior, and that's it?"
"Yes, but it doesn't include the means of mobilizing the dragon veins. ”
"So what?"
"Therefore, it is more suitable for you to integrate ancient and modern cultivation methods and theoretical systems, and make judgments on the relationship between the earth and cultivators now. ”
"So, what about the criteria for judging?"
The archdeacon hesitated, pondered for a while before looking at Xu Xingkongdao:
"There's no standard, it's up to you. ”
Xu Xingkong was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously looked at Lin Xiaofeng, Lin Xiaofeng replied to him with a smile of encouragement and trust, Xu Xingkong took a breath, turned his head to look at the archdeacon and said:
"Senior, then let me ask a different way, I would like to know your advice or advice. ”
The archdeacon smiled slightly:
"The reason why the predecessors chose to interrupt the inheritance and enter eternal sleep was because the development of intelligent life on the earth had reached a bottleneck, and too many powerful people occupied too many primordial spirit resources, resulting in the quantity and quality of intelligent life not being qualitatively improved. And now, the development of intelligent life has obviously reached another bottleneck, the number of intelligent life on the earth is not too small, but there are too many problems, or because we have not found a better way to feed them, obviously, this is something that our generation must solve. ”
Xu Xing thought for a while and said:
"That's... Awakening the role of those predecessors... Is it going beyond the Earth?"
The archdeacon shook his head with a smile:
"I can't say this, you need to judge for yourself, maybe, their recovery can greatly improve the overall strength of our race, break through the ceiling above our heads, perhaps, their awakening will accelerate the deterioration of the current situation, this is all up to you to judge. ”
Xu Xingkong blinked:
"It's the time of the people. ”
The archdeacon shrugged his shoulders:
"However, I can't get everyone to come here and read this material, and it would be irresponsible to let them make a choice when the information is not equal. ”
Xu Xingkong turned his head and looked at the huge library, and said that he would let everyone come and see it, but after thinking about it, he still stopped thinking about it.
There are many questions about wanting to realize Xu Xingkong's idea, such as how to choose the people who can enter here? Just selecting this list is enough to set off a storm in the cultivation circle, not to mention, those who have obtained this valuable knowledge will immediately become fragrant and sweet in the eyes of others, and may stammer, or may share and eat, and then it will be a big mess.
Even if Xu Xingkong's strength can be further improved, it is enough to crush the entire cultivation circle, and even if he can make the tomb keeper obey his words, it is useless, some things cannot be solved by strong force.
Rather than making it so troublesome, it is better to let Xu Xingkong decide alone, whether he is dead or alive, right or wrong, and the decision of one person is not necessarily worse than the decision of a group of people.
Xu Xingkong nodded silently, and the archdeacon smiled slightly when he saw this, and exhaled softly, as if he had unloaded a thousand catties of burden, and the whole person felt a lot more relaxed.
......
A mountainous area in central China.
Originally a secret military warehouse, it was requisitioned by a mysterious ministry thirty years ago, and then sealed off, with the only alternate road missing for years, except for a railroad to replenish supplies.
The garrison in charge of the guards didn't know what they were guarding, and wondered why they couldn't even see the people who came in and out, except for the regular monthly supply trains.
On this day, the railroad and the roads are still as quiet as ever, but the buildings located in the mountains are very lively, and the staff who come and go are all smiling and energetic.
The 200 seats in the semicircle in the huge circular conference room are almost full, among which there are the elders of the government who can often be seen on TV, of course, there are indispensable bigwigs in military uniforms, and what is even more strange is that there are indeed a group of monks and Taoists who are not young, and many people who are wearing classical costumes and cannot tell their age.
And sitting at the front, it was those people in retro costumes, who accompanied them were the great elders of the government, but among them, the more eye-catching ones were indeed a pair of young men and women with outstanding temperament.
On the other side of the circular conference room is a huge display screen showing a strange circular machine, surrounded by uncluttered pipes and racks, and staff in protective suits.
An old man with glasses and a polite demeanor was standing in front of the big screen, his hair was gray, his cheeks were thin, and he looked like a typical scholar, but the not very strong Yuan Spirit fluctuations around his body proved that this was a cultivator who was not very profound.
At this moment, he looked at the big screen with some excitement on his face, and after a while, he turned his head, picked up a wireless microphone from a small platform in front of him, coughed and tried the microphone's pickup effect, and then glanced at everyone present, and said with a little excitement:
"Chiefs... And ladies and gentlemen, what you see now is that the Circle Confinement Nuclear Fusion Reaction Power Generating Unit, which has been successfully in operation for 2,000 hours, has been shut down for two weeks, and after two weeks of shutdown inspection, we have obtained extremely optimistic data, and after we have repeatedly confirmed with the advisory team, we can announce that this Circle Confined Nuclear Fusion Reaction Generating Unit, which has a total power of 5 million megawatt hours, can be put into regular operation. ”
As soon as the old man's words fell, the conference room burst into deafening applause, and even the bigwigs in the front row couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The old man looked at everyone with a smile, and waited until everyone's applause stopped, and then he continued:
"Needless to say, once the device is put into practical use, it means that we humans... No, all intelligent life on our planet will usher in a new era, and theoretically, as long as there is enough energy, even the food we used to rely on for life can be synthesized with energy. It also means that we have sufficient power to march towards the universe, and it means that an era of great astronautics is about to begin, no, it has begun!"
The old man licked his somewhat dry lips, continued to wave his arms and said excitedly:
"With the help of the theory of magic, we can build stronger materials, larger and stronger vehicles, a more complete living environment, and next, we will build smaller and more compact nuclear fusion power generation devices, and cooperate with the space department to build a space city in far orbit..."
The old man's emotions became more and more passionate as the speech unfolded, but everyone did not feel bored, and listened to the old man looking forward to the future with relish, and the smile on his face was full of pride and expectation.
Finally, the staff gradually withdrew from the big screen on the wall, and the old man seemed to sense something, turned his head to look, and then raised his hand to the big screen with a red face:
"Okay, the inspection of the equipment has been completed, all the preparations have been completed, and now, I invite Mr. Xu Xingkong to officially light up the first artificial sun on the earth that will never go out. ”
Everyone applauded vigorously, and even those costume bosses looked at Xu Xingkong with a smile, Xu Xingkong was not stage frightened, but turned around and handed out his left hand to Lin Xiaofeng after getting up, Lin Xiaofeng pursed his lips and smiled and put his hand into Xu Xingkong's hand.
A pair of young people like golden boys and girls came to the podium in front of the big screen, there was a huge green button on the podium, Xu Xingkong turned his head to look at the big screen, all kinds of data on the upper part of the big screen lit up with a green passing signal, Xu Xingkong looked at the old man again, and the old man smiled and stretched out his hand.
Xu Xingkong and Lin Xiaofeng stretched out their hands together, then looked up at everyone, and pressed the button together with a smile.
Behind Xu Xingkong and Lin Xiaofeng, an extremely complex magic array pattern suddenly lit up around the inconspicuous machine, and then, the machine seemed to tremble, and then, all kinds of indicators around it flashed, and an extremely powerful but stable fluctuation faintly came, and the data on the big screen changed rapidly.
The large-screen lens transition, a scorching sun, is lit up inside the machine, around this small sun with a diameter of only about one meter, is a number of beautiful formations of longitude and latitude.
Humanity's own sun has lit up, and a new era has begun.
