Chapter 356: Battle Artifact
"This thing...... It's really weird. β
When Anshidar and Dedalus arrived at Xie Shiqi's office, they both made the same comment about the stone.
As if it was expected by Morningstar, as if beyond imagination, Morningstar looked a little crying and laughing in the face of the same judgment of Anshidar and Dedaros. Compared to Morning Star's crying and laughing, the Black Tiger and Leo on the side were extremely annoyed, and the thing they almost got back with their lives turned out to be a Xibei goods, and I am afraid that it will not be easy for anyone to put this matter on. It was only under the safety of Morning Star that the two of them fell to the ground slightly. In the eyes of Black Tiger and Leo, Morningstar is the kind of person who turns his face when he says it, and the name of butcher is not groundless. Just like what Black Tiger once said: Lord Morning Star is not a good old man who is harmless to humans and animals as his appearance seems, although he can't see his methods at ordinary times, but once he touches his bottom line, it will only bring a storm.
No, in this office, Black Tiger and Leo think that the two of them have touched the bottom line of Morningstar. Morningstar gave them opportunities, supplies, and that rare trust, but what did these two people bring back to Morningstar? A characterless stone?
It's just that the two people's uneasiness was not noticed by Morning Star, and now Morning Star's mind is full of what the characteristics of this artifact are, and how to make it react to other people. Morningstar's indifference made Black Tiger and Leo think that Morningstar was angry, although Morningstar had comforted them before, saying that it didn't matter, but neither of them was a child, especially when facing the Lord of Itgleason, they habitually thought that the words of the superior could not only listen to the superficial meaning, so at the moment they were thinking about whether there was anything to dig into Morningstar's words.
Anshidar's beauty, if measured by human standards, should be cold and arrogant beauty. And Dedalus, who was standing opposite her, was as passionate as fire, and the appearance of these two stunners at the same time was definitely a picture that could make any male creature go crazy. But at this moment, except for Leo and Black Tiger, who were anxious and worried about their lives, the only male creature in the field, Morning Star, looked at the stone with two beautiful women with very different styles without feeling.
"Anda, you see, here, there are no runes in this area, this kind of carving method is definitely left by that civilization, so far, we have no way to replicate their carving technique, so I think this stone is really an artifact." With a magnifying glass in his hand, Dedalus magnified a spot on the stone for Anshidar to see.
Morningstar raised his head, only to see Anshidar staring intently at the position pointed by Dedaros, his brows furrowed, and after a while, he nodded and said, "That's right, I recalled the information left by Lord Implis, which is completely in line with the habits of that civilization, and I don't see any traces of forgery. β
"In other words, this thing is really an artifact?" Morningstar listened to Anshidal's conclusion and asked.
"Yes, this stone is really an artifact." The two Psenchus beauties replied at the same time.
"Whew!"
"Shhh
Two different voices came from the mouths of Leo and Black Tiger respectively, making the other four people in the room inexplicable, but seeing the gradually relaxed expressions on their faces, they slowly understood the reason.
Morning Star ignored these two overly nervous comrades-in-arms, some things can not be explained to have a good result, more depends on how the person concerned does. Focusing on the stone again, Morningstar asked, "Then you say, will there be a time when the energy of this artifact will run out?" β
Anshidar obviously had studied the issue of the Morning Star for a long time, and shook his head decisively and said, "It doesn't exist. This thing you call a stone is not strictly a natural object, and if you had to plan a category for it, it would be closer to a sophisticated instrument. β
"That's it? Instrument? Morningstar's face was full of disbelief, and he hurriedly looked down at the artifact again, but still found nothing.
"It's just an explanation in a way that you humans can understand, artifacts are man-made, they exist in a combination of multiple forms of technology. In more detail, an artifact is a living system that can not only release energy, but also absorb it in a specific way. After thinking for a moment, Anshidar continued: "Just like the artifact you brought back from the Golden Farm before, it can nourish the land of the Golden Farm, and it can also be the weapon of the first life, one releases energy, the other absorbs energy, this is a dynamic balance. β
Morning Star seemed to suddenly understand something, and immediately asked nervously, "You mean, the artifact I brought back will absorb the life energy of the outside world under certain circumstances?" Wouldn't it be an unsettling factor for us to leave it on Itgleason? β
Dedalos sneered, walked to Morningstar's side, grabbed Morningstar's arm, squeezed the height of his chest on Morningstar's arm, and said, "Brave and fearless Lord Morningstar, Guardian of the Starry Sky, are you afraid?" β
Morningstar didn't feel any discomfort in the face of Didalos's initiative, as if the person holding his arm at the moment was just a naΓ―ve child, and was not attracted by Didalos's charm at all, and said calmly: "I'm worried that my people will be hurt by that thing, as for me? Not to be hurt by a stone. β
Xie Shiqi didn't know for what reason, after seeing Dedalos approaching Morning Star, his mood suddenly became bad, and when he heard Morning Star's words, he said disdainfully: "Blind confidence." β
Dedalus didn't mind Xie Shiqi's feelings, but instead hugged Morning Star's hand tighter, and replied: "You don't have to worry about this at all, the energy conversion of artifacts requires a specific environment and special means to activate, and there are not many people who can master these skills, even Anshidar and I don't know what to do." As for the Mandate of Heaven Sect, I don't think you have to worry, that artifact has already fallen into our hands, and even if they have the opportunity to come into contact with the artifact, they don't have the ability to meet the harsh conditions required for artifact form transformation. β
"But didn't Anda just say that he would release and absorb it? How can we be sure that it will be under our control? Morningstar is still very new, asked.
Anshidar still had that cold expression, and replied: "You don't need to worry about this, it is estimated that you and I, even Norin Hill, who has a long life, will not have the opportunity to see the day when that artifact is transformed into energy." It's like humans on their home planet, Earth, who are worried that the sun will one day burn out its vitality. β
Hearing this, Morning Star was relieved. The artifact he had brought back from the Golden Farm was immediately valued as soon as it arrived at Itgleason, and the mechanics of Pusenchus, including Anshidar and Dedalus, were optimistic about the artifact's usefulness. But Morningstar has never promised them to put this artifact into use, because the Mandate of Heaven has mastered the ability to transform it into a weapon that can easily harvest hundreds of millions of lives, which has made Morningstar very worried, afraid that one day when he wakes up, Itgleason has become a barren land. But now with the double assurance of Anshidar and Dedaros, Morningstar has also decided to put that artifact into use.
Just when everyone in the office had no choice but to take this unresponsive artifact, outside the office, Xie Shiqi's little secretary suddenly said, "Elder Tula, welcome to you." β
With the voice of the little secretary, the office door was pushed open, and Tula's figure hidden under the cloak entered the room strangely, and instantly arrived at Morning Star's desk. Morningstar tried to get up and salute, but was interrupted by Tula raising his hand, and for more than two decades, Tula did not say a word, sometimes opening his eyes to observe, sometimes closing his eyes to perceive, and finally, when the crowd was about to run out of patience, Tula finally spoke.
"It's a combat artifact, and it's dormant because it doesn't have a carrier."
Morningstar stood up, led Tula to sit down on the back of his desk, and stood aside himself, asking, "Tula-sensei, you mean, we need special conditions to activate this artifact?" β
"Yes."
Hearing Tula's answer, Morning Star rubbed his palms excitedly and asked, "Then do you know what this carrier is?" β
Tula turned his head to look at Morningstar, the hesitation in his eyes puzzled Morningstar, but out of politeness, Morningstar didn't continue to ask. Not long after, a cold light flashed in Tula's blue eyes, and he whispered: "Morning Star, I know what the carrier that can awaken this artifact is, but you have to understand that after the enhancement of the artifact, the carrier is likely to become stronger than your trap and Quinn's release form, at that time, you will no longer have a military deterrence against that person, why do you take this risk?" β
Tula's words say that here, Morning Star basically already knows what the so-called carrier is! The communication with the trapped Morning Star has not been forgotten, and it is still vivid, the seven swords are the carrier of the artifact! And after receiving the artifact enhancement, the Seven Swords will burst out with far more powerful power than they are now. Teacher Tula's words are actually asking Morningstar if he fully trusts the friends around him.
Morning Star was silent, now he was not the same as before, he was full and the whole family was not hungry. There are already too many people on ItGleason who need his care and need him to steer me in the direction, if the disaster breaks down at this time, will the people on ItGleason be able to bear their share of willfulness?
Just when Morning Star was at a loss, Xie Shiqi came to Morning Star's side, reached out to straighten out the hair that was messed up by Morning Star, and said, "Morning Star, did you ignore something?" β
"Huh?" Morningstar raised his head blankly and instinctively asked, "What?" β
Xie Shiqi sighed lightly and said, "Who are the users of the Seven Swords?" Have you forgotten? β
A word to wake up the dreamer! Xie Shiqi's words woke up Morning Star, the user of the Seven Swords, which has been determined so far, Norin Hill's Allure, Anshidar's Phantom, Catherine's Hanmang, Eva's Eagle Eye, and Daytime's Youlong. Who are these people? Either it is a woman who has completely surrendered her body and mind to herself, or a brother who lives and dies together, if these people are worthy of Morning Star's trust, then Morning Star's life can only be called a tragedy.
Turning his head, Morning Star's eyes were already full of confident flames, and he said firmly to Tula, "Teacher Tula! Risk, there is no risk at all! β
Tula's eyes lit up again, although he couldn't see whether the corners of his mouth under the face towel were upturned, but Morning Star knew that this time, with the help of Xie Shiqi, he had passed the test.
