Chapter 111 Ancient Civilization Slate

Carrying a backpack full of artifacts? Carter slammed the window panes and frames on the second floor with his strong body, and then jumped out of the museum with his two companions amid the countless broken window frames and raining glass residues.

After landing, they all continued to run forward, but they didn't run a few steps, and they all stopped in amazement when they saw the scene in front of them.

On Avenue 5 in front of them, the people of Bonham couldn't see the expected car that Ludlow drove to pick up, only ordinary people watching not far away, and two gray metal monsters stood quietly not far from the stone steps in front of the museum.

"Bang"!" Bang"!

The sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground sounded one after another, and it was the other two SPAU fighters who were ambushed on the top of the museum jumped directly to the ground, and their heavy bodies pressed the hard ground under the impact force, completely sealing their back path, forming a circle of encirclement.

"SPAU! Carter, Josh? Gad Ku, Cooper? Dinglaki, your actions have constituted a terrorist attack, immediately put down the backpack in your hand and lie on the ground with your head in your hands, otherwise the military has the right to kill you on the spot, and this warning will not be repeated a second time! ”

The merciless warning sounded, and the people who were called by name Bohan and the others all panicked and froze in place.

This feeling of being nakedly unidentified and blocked at the scene of a crime is never pleasant, let alone that. Since the events on Wall Street, I'm afraid there is no one who doesn't know about Corona's power armor. The image of the steel body flying from the air like a god, fighting terrifying monsters. It has long been deeply imprinted in the mind of every human who has read the news, and it is absolutely impossible to forget half of it.

The people in front of them, who claimed to be military special forces, although their looks looked slightly different from Li Jie back then, were undoubtedly wearing power armor, which made several gangsters who originally thought that they would only face the pursuit of the police at most, and they had no courage to face it at all.

"Split up!"

"Let's go!"

"Don't kill me...... I...... I give up! ”

Listening to the sound of sirens that grew clearer and clearer from far and near, several people knew that there was no longer time to hesitate. It's a subconscious instinctive reaction. Bonham and Cooper shouted at the first time, ready to flee separately, and Josh? Gad, an art thief, is not as bold as they are. Looking at the cold metal monster, his mind fell into a blank almost instantly, and his legs involuntarily trembled and fell to the ground.

After all, he was born as a thief, and he bullied ordinary people at most. Even after taking the medication. Nor did he have the courage to go against these intimidating armored warriors.

Fuck!

Idiot!

Bonham and Cooper scolded in their hearts, this soft egg surrendered on his knees without backbone, and the most angry thing was that it directly led to one less person to help them attract attention, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of his escape, and if it was changed to another occasion, he would have the heart to kill him.

But at the critical moment, the two of them no longer cared about teaching this soft egg, and looked at each other and ran away separately left and right with a tacit understanding.

It's just a pity that they hesitated for just a few seconds. Already let the four SPAU fighters form a good encirclement, at such a close distance. The two of them couldn't dodge the fire coverage of the automatic weapon at all, and a piercing roar rang out, and the surging metal storm accurately covered the direction of their progress.

Although they don't know anything, Boham and Cooper should be glad that if it weren't for the fact that they would not have been greeted by steel-core armor-piercing shells, they would have been besieged by "beetail" missiles, if it had not been for the fact that damage to artifacts and works of art had been minimized. The emergency mobilization order signed by President Sheila is like letting go of the shackles on the tiger's neck, so that these iron-blooded elite fighters do not need to worry about moral or public condemnation, and only need to follow the order to ensure that the target does not escape.

In such a situation, killing is undoubtedly the simplest and most straightforward.

The cold and heavy metal warhead mercilessly destroyed everything that stood in its way, not only shooting the hard ground into a pit and a slag of gravel, but also tearing the leg muscles of the two bandits one after another, brutally bringing a little bit of blood, beating them to the point of staggering again and again.

Even if they were shot in the leg one after another, the superhuman physique after taking the drug was still able to support Boham and Cooper to run quickly, but unfortunately, in this situation, they could not outrun the SPAU warriors with the power armor amplification athletic ability, and the super physique after genetic modification was enough to support them to run and jump quickly without being affected by the recoil of automatic weapons.

Bonham and Cooper didn't even escape from the small square in front of the museum, they were thrown to the ground by the SPAU warriors who were chasing them, and the relentless heavy blow brought the sound of broken flesh and cracking, and the strength that was usually enough to crush ordinary people was restrained everywhere in front of the more powerful armored warriors, and soon begged for mercy again and again in the miserable howls, and even the strength to shout was much weaker.

At this time, a large number of police officers and the National Guard who had come to support them also arrived at the scene one after another, and countless searchlights were staggered, reflecting the front of the museum as if it were daytime.

Even more striking are the several media helicopters hovering over the museum, all of which were directly notified by the military. In order to publicize the combat effectiveness of the SPAU forces and expand the deterrent influence, the federal government and the Ministry of Defense, which are gearing up, have long communicated with them and made contact with them as soon as possible.

With the help of information superiority, media reporters rushed to the scene one step ahead of the police, and at first they were a little worried about a tragedy similar to Wall Street and did not dare to approach, but at this time, seeing that several superpower gangsters were easily restrained, they immediately couldn't wait to lower their altitude and started a unique live broadcast show.

A dejected Bourham? Carter and several other art thieves were not only devastated, but also felt wronged in their hearts, even if they broke into the Metropolitan Museum and robbed a few works of art and precious cultural relics, they would not be able to commit such a high-level arrest!

Metal monsters, live broadcast by media helicopters, round-up by military and police......

Even without any military common sense, they could easily see how advanced the equipment of these SPAU fighters was, and it was like anti-aircraft guns fighting mosquitoes against them.

Blame the Sheila government on the urgency to reassert its authority. Shocked the constant superpower crimes that occurred everywhere, and a few of them hit the muzzle of the gun and became the weak chickens who killed chickens and monkeys. What's even worse is that it will be broadcast live as a background board for the military's powerful force.

"Well done!"

The command center in Los Angeles was full of cheers and applause, and the victory in the first battle was undoubtedly the best praise for their overtime work during this time, and also swept away the pressure and humiliation caused by the condemnation of public opinion some time ago.

"Congratulations, General McLean."

Seeing that the operation was successfully completed, Li Jie was also ready to leave. He turned to Ian, who was beside him? McLean shook hands and sent congratulations in time.

And Ian also reciprocated and expressed his gratitude to the Corona Company, although it was judged from the intelligence from the beginning that the combat effectiveness of several gangsters was not strong. But after all, it is the first public appearance of the SPAU troops, and it is related to their position and future. Now that no civilians were injured, the round-up was completed neatly, and it could be regarded as a smooth end. It also made him breathe a sigh of relief. Smile with satisfaction.

Before leaving, Li Jie subconsciously glanced at the big screen again.

However, this glance made him shake all over his body, revealing an expression of disbelief.

On the screen in front of you, a SPAU fighter is picking up Bonham from the ground? Carter's backpack was turned out one by one for inspection of the artifacts and artworks inside, and what the soldier was holding in his hand at the moment was a stone slab that was gray and unsightly. At first glance, you can see that the cultural relics are very old, and such collections are at least thousands of years old. It's not uncommon in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Originally, Li Jie was not interested in human cultural relics at all, because the longest history of civilization was only a few thousand years, and it was nothing in the long life of a high demon.

But at this moment, there was a storm in his heart that he had never felt before, and he watched in a daze as the stone slab on the screen was stuffed back into his backpack, apparently the SPAU warrior just took it out and looked at it, and was about to return it to the museum.

After a while, Li Jie suddenly patted McKellen on the shoulder next to him:

"General, please let Soldier No. 4 take out the stone slab in his backpack just now."

Ian? McLean was just about to step forward and instruct the finishing touches of this operation, when he heard Li Jie's endless words, he was stunned for a moment, obviously feeling a little inexplicable, and almost blurted out and asked:

"Slate? What slate? ”

The number one SPAU man didn't pay attention to the screen just now, and he didn't pay attention to the seemingly ordinary movement of the scene in the picture, so he didn't understand what Li Jie was talking about at all.

"Just now, Soldier No. 4 took out the artifacts of the museum from the target's backpack, and there is a stone slab in it, I want to see it clearly, please let him take it out again, this is very important."

Li Jie said this request almost word by word, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, which was extremely sharp and pierced straight into Ian McKellen's heart, making him dare not look at him, and subconsciously lowered his head.

Although the Corona Corporation and the Ministry of Defense are partners, they do not have the authority to interfere in the operations of the SPAU forces, and the reason why Li Jie and the others were allowed to be present was purely out of technical support and respect. If it were someone else on the corona side, even if it was a department head of Gilbert or Carmen's level, Ian might not be able to deal with such a strange or even clueless request.

But now it is Li Jie who makes this request, the genetic new human, superhero, and corona owner who makes him implicitly afraid in his heart, plus the special instructions of Secretary of Defense Gates in private, no matter which aspect, Ian has to be cautious.

He froze down, felt Li Jie's persistence and attention, and after a moment of silence, he nodded and directly instructed Pete, the deputy below? Karaksky:

"Colonel, contact Soldier No. 4 and ask him to take out an ancient stone slab from his backpack just now and put it in front of the camera."

Soldier No. 4 is named Aobo, the inspection just now was just a casual move, and he didn't pay attention to it at all, and now when he heard this somewhat strange order, he had to find the person in charge of the museum who had retrieved the cultural relics again, and after some explanation, he took it in his hand again and placed it clearly in front of the camera.

At this time, whether it was Gilbert, Carmen, or the military people present, they all felt Li Jie's attention to this seemingly ordinary slate.

Especially Gilbert, he has been with his boss for the longest time, but he rarely sees the other party show such a solemn expression, and his curiosity is indescribable.

It's just that no matter how these people look at it, the stone slab full of patterns is just an ordinary ancient cultural relic, and I really don't know what is special.

Only Li Jie didn't say a word, staring at the screen in front of him, although the light was a little dim, his super eyesight was enough to clearly see every pattern on the surface of the slate, and the traces left by the carving looked complex and fine, irregular, but full of vicissitudes.

In the eyes of any ordinary human being, it will be guessed that it is most likely the words, patterns or ways of remembering some ancient human civilization, but that's all, just find an ancient stone slab in a museum, and it will be much the same.

They would never have imagined that this was a kind of writing that Li Jie was all too familiar with.

Li Jie, who has lived in New York for a long time, knows that the Metropolitan Museum of Art is known as the fashion capital of New York, and even the pride of the United States, along with the British Museum in London, the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, and the Leningrad Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Russia, which are known as the four major museums in the world, with millions of cultural relics and works of art.

There are countless antiquities alone that could not be seen in a few days, such as cuneiform tablets and seals, some from the Neolithic period, some from the Sassanid Empire, and the most famous of which is the huge stone statue of Lammasu in the northwestern royal palace built by the Neo-Assyrian monarch Ashronasirpa II.

All of the above can fully explain that although Li Jie has not visited it in person, there is absolutely no doubt about the level of professionalism in the Metropolitan Museum. The collection that can be housed in this magnificent museum, the Museum of Ancient Near Eastern Art, is undoubtedly a collection of human antiquities that are more than 1,000 years old.

Then, first of all, it can be ruled out that this is a newly imitated counterfeit in recent years.

This is also the fundamental reason why Li Jie was shocked - why did a stone tablet used by ancient humans on the earth thousands of years ago to remember leave pure demon words?

Li Jie stared at the big screen in front of him for a long time, and was silent for several minutes, but the terrifying momentum that was rising all over his body made no one dare to interrupt his train of thought, and he felt that the air was almost condensed into substance, and even breathing became difficult.

In this unconcealable silence, Li Jie could see the super vision of the air dust, and he had clearly recognized that the stone slab was a real demonic language, and it was by no means an approximate pattern that was randomly chiseled and stumped. Because it is a basically coherent demon language, which when translated into human language roughly means:

- "Shining stars fall from the sky." ”

PS: The emergence of human beings can be traced back to four or five million years ago, and since then it has been in a state of ignorance, why did it suddenly become intelligent more than 10,000 years ago, and civilization developed rapidly? Why do powerful demons continue to emerge in human society? From ancient times to the present, where did the source of all kinds of unbelievable legends in the human world come from?

Stay tuned for Volume 5 - The Secret of Civilization.

PS again: I'm going to run naked this week, I hope you can support it more...... (To be continued......)
