Act XX. survivors of civilization; Civilized sinners

For the Eris civilization, the [Ghost Veil] is a monster created by itself, but Bai Ge doesn't understand it a little, since this civilization has entered destruction, why should he ask them to destroy this monster.

You must know that there is such a saying in the old era that "after I die, no matter what the flood is", the civilization that has already collapsed, to be honest, has no reason, and it is necessary to deal with the problems left by it.

"No, you don't understand."

The man said with a bitter smile.

"If this monster is left unattended, then it will gradually expand by devouring other creatures, and finally become a huge curtain covering the entire world, and at that time, not only the Eris civilization, but also your human civilization will be destroyed because of this, for us, if we can't explore the unknown world, then civilization will have no meaning to exist."

As he said, the Eris civilization could have been relegated to the lighthouse of the supply depot and turned back into ants who didn't know the number of stars, and if so, maybe the population would continue to grow, as it had been for hundreds of generations.

However, the Eris civilization did not choose to do so, but decided to gather the strength of all civilizations to fight against the [Nether], to try to break through the blockade of the [Nether], although there is a high probability of the destruction of the entire civilization ahead, they have no hesitation.

Once you know the vastness of the world, there is no way to go back to the box and pretend that you don't know anything.

"So, we, or I, hope to be able to help you humans in our final moments."

Man, the last man of Eris civilization, said.

"I hope you will not be bound by gravity on this planet like the Eris civilization, and I hope you can witness the real stars in our place."

Bai Ge was silent.

Although it was only a short 120 days, there is no doubt that the Eris civilization once existed, and this library is the truest record of civilization.

For humans, the civilization constituted by these ants is fragile and short-lived.

But how is human civilization not transient and fragile for the planet as a whole?

"But that monster is powerful, isn't it? We simply couldn't have beaten it. ”

Wilbur is more than listening to the birth and destruction of civilization? More worried about their lives.

Judging from the previous performance, even Bai Ge and Bamboo Frost Fall are difficult to deal with this monster? They're already struggling just to escape? Not to mention direct confrontation with it.

Although the ant civilization or something sounds a little unbelievable, is that monster really what he has ever seen? For this man's request, Wilbur, as an ordinary person, felt a little difficult to accept.

"But? And if you can't solve the problem of this monster? Not to mention the threat it poses to others, and we can't get out of this depot. ”

Bamboo Frost pondered, since that monster is a civilization originating from the Eris Supply Depot, then it is bound to have its activities centered here? Does it know Bai Ge's whereabouts? There is a good chance that they will be ambushed around, and once they leave, they will wait for an opportunity to sneak up and devour Flyer One.

So, instead of helping the survivors of the Eris civilization to destroy the Nether? How about they can get the help of the creators of this monster? to destroy these monsters.

"Indeed, you as makers? You should know at least some of the specifics of this monster, right? ”

Bai Ge nodded.

He wasn't entirely emotional, and he thought about what was going on? How to let the [Nether] continue to wander the wasteland? Perhaps the power of the "evolution" of the abyssal relics it itself contaminated with will also make the situation more difficult.

As the Ombudsman of the Abyssal Relic Affairs Division? Bai Ge is responsible for resolving this situation.

Judging from the previous encounters, the personality of this monster is probably between the fourth and fifth order of the ascendant, but it does not have the blessing of the extraordinary power of too many historical fragments, judging from the description of the survivors of the Eris civilization, this should be some kind of mechanical creation, perhaps because of the influence of the abyss relic has evolved and mutated.

"The essence of that black shadow is a mechanized ant, we extract, copy, upload, and load our consciousness into a mechanical body, these body structures are tens of millions of times stronger than ordinary ants, enough to survive in extremely harsh environments."

When the man heard this, he quickly explained.

"Originally, our plan was to completely abandon the weak and short-lived body of ants, and mechanize all to cope with future exploration, at that time, we had several proposals, including all genetic biological modification, as well as high-speed navigation technology, and mechanization transformation, and finally determined the mechanization plan."

"You said before that you have found a way to obtain infinite energy through the analysis of what humans have left behind, what is that? What technology did you find? ”

Bai Ge asked.

"It's this."

The man didn't hide it, he stood up a little weakly, went to the bookshelf on the side, and pulled out a heavy book.

The cover of the book is a text that Bai Ge can't distinguish, although he can't read it, but the binding of the book still gives Bai Ge a sense of sacredness and solemnity.

The man opened the book, and in the middle of it was not a page, but a hollowed-out one, in which lay a crystalline object.

The crystals were translucent, crimson with a hint of orange, and there seemed to be a flame burning inside, as if the skin would be burned just by touching it.

"Is this a treasure?"

Wilbur glanced at it, and it was hard to take his eyes off the crystal.

"Extraordinary power, and ......"

Bai Ge swept through the [Assassin Vision] and quickly confirmed that this crystal had a similar feeling to the feather obtained in the first stage, and it must also be an extraordinary item left over from the [Steel Feather].

"It seems that Atlas has really found clues about [Fullmetal Feather]......"

After he took a photo, he posted it to the group of [Panda Council].

Soon, Bai Ge got the answer from the big guy who [no one understands faith better than me].

[No one knows faith better than I do]: This is the solidified breath of [Steel Feather], which contains a huge amount of energy, and more importantly, this breath is probably able to continuously convert the surrounding free air and the like into energy storage, even in the Inquisition, such breath crystals are quite rare.

"In other words, this is the core technology of [Nether]?"

Bai Ge seemed to understand.

For the ants, the energy contained in the solidified breath of [Steel Feather] is almost endless, and the energy transformation they use to solidify the breath is enough to support them in anything.

With access to almost unlimited energy, the Eris civilization naturally developed rapidly to the point of mechanization.

"Yes, we have developed energy conversion technology from this crystal, which has made mechanization possible, however, when most of the people have mechanized, these mechanized people have mutated among their kind, they have become cruel and bloodthirsty, swarming, devouring everything they see, and even evolved the power of the shadow veil, under the illumination of light, these gathered mechanized beings can create a small subspace that is different from the real space, and devour objects through the subspace."

The survivor of the Eris civilization said.

"Subspace?"

Bai Ge quickly understood that this might be the existence of some kind of similar realm, the realm of ascenders composed of a large number of mechanized ants, and therefore it would have such a trait.

At the same time, he thought that the reason why he couldn't use the [White Rainbow Sun] to kill that [Nether Curtain] with one blow was probably because it was a swarm of mechanized ants, and it was not enough for him to kill one or two, he had to destroy them all.

"Do you have any specific data on these mechanized ants?"

Bai Ge confirmed that since it was a machine, although it had the extraordinary ability of an ascender, it could be destroyed after all.

One of the reasons why the Eris civilization lost to the [Nether] is that most of their kindreds have been converted, and on the other hand, they do not have the ability of the ascender, and the [Nether] can easily destroy this fragile civilization under the suppression of extraordinary abilities.

The survivors of the Eris civilization quickly found a book from the shelf, opened it, and suddenly realized that these humans did not understand the Erist script, so they spoke.

"These mechanized ants have a very strong body, can withstand high temperatures of more than 1,000 degrees and low temperatures of minus 200 degrees, and their hardness is close to that of diamonds, and they are almost indestructible by ordinary means, which is also ...... It was made in response to the environment of the starry sky that may exist. ”

He briefly explained some data, as well as the characteristics of mechanized ants.

It can be said that if there is no problem, then the Eris civilization may really be able to rely on these mechanized ants to rush into the universe, reach the stars, and even establish a civilization that is more prosperous than humans.

Unfortunately, the Eris civilization was finally destroyed, leaving only this huge and empty library.

"It seems that there is no way to destroy it with conventional physical means......"

Bai Ge thought for a moment, with their current situation, they couldn't completely wipe out the [Shadow Curtain].

They briefly checked the Eris civilization's combat equipment, but these equipment were either too small and could only be used by ants, or they used to rely on intelligence to drive, but now they have been destroyed due to the influence of the [Nether], and as for the Eris civilization's warships and the like, they have long been unable to start.

"The reason for the fear of sunlight is as you guessed, its subspace will become unstable due to the exposure of strong light, therefore, it will try its best to avoid encountering light above a certain intensity, although the mechanical body will not change because of the sunlight, but if the subspace collapses, then their body will definitely be damaged, or even directly destroyed."

The survivors of the Eris civilization said that at the end of the civilization war, they seem to have basically figured out the weakness of the [Nether], but because they are on the verge of extinction, it is difficult to even fight back.

"During the day, the [Nether] will hide in the crevices of the rocks or in the caves, and only appear at night, so our strategy at that time was to find the hiding place of the [Nether], blow it up, and use the sunlight to destroy it, however, it is quite clever and will hide far away from here during the day, and in the final battle, we lost."

The man sighed.

"If you use some strong lights or something, can you achieve the same effect?"

Bai Ge asked, he now knew the reason why the [Nether Curtain] was afraid of light, but it was obvious that a normal intensity light could only dispel it, but not kill it, he was curious if the powerful searchlight could have an impact on the domain of the [Nether Curtain], and if so, it should be enough to directly use the technology of the Eris civilization to create a searchlight.

"No, we've tried a lot of light sources, but we've finally confirmed that only the sun's rays can kill it."

The survivor of the Eris civilization shook his head.

"So, we're going to have to find that guy's hideout during the day and blow it up?"

Wilbur touched his chin.

In fact, now that they have obtained the breath crystallization of [Steel Feather], they can actually run away with a bucket, and arrive at the next supply station after dawn tomorrow, until they are out of the influence range of [Nether].

This is also the most direct idea of being an ordinary person.

"We're going to have a lot of time, and we don't necessarily succeed......"

"Indeed, this efficiency is too low, and there is no way to solve the problem in a short time by relying on just three of us in one car......"

Bamboo Frost also agreed with Wilbur.

She wasn't in a hurry to leave, and now that she had encountered the problem with the Eris supply depot, Bamboo Frost felt that as the inspector of the Abyssal Relic Division, it was indeed her responsibility to deal with this monster, but the method was important.

“......”

Bai Ge seemed to think of something, but he didn't speak.

A moment later, the last of Eris broke the silence.

"Actually, there's another way."

He returned to his position, resting his hand lightly on the book he had spread out earlier, as if he had made a decision, before he spoke.

"This library, in order to survive for a long time, is made using the same technology as a mechanized body, which means that under normal circumstances, the [Nether] cannot destroy this place."

The man paused before continuing.

"After the death of my companions, I sat here alone for a long time, and I kept going back and looking at what it was like to kill [the Veil], and finally, I finally got an answer."

"That is to use this library, use me as a bait, attract [Dark Curtain], trap it in this library, and when the sun rises, I will directly destroy this library, so that [Dark Curtain] will be completely annihilated in the sun."

"Though it is a great blasphemy to my duty, I will also be a sinner to our civilization."

"But ......"

The man raised his head and looked at Bai Ge.

"Perhaps the future of a civilization that is still alive is more important than the tombstones of a dead civilization."
