Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Lost City
The Lost City
The stream who was concentrating on checking the information was very startled when he saw half of the face, he quickly stopped the picture and carefully examined the face, this head is not small, the face is still lifelike, and half of it has been eroded. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info the vulgar rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, it was indeed a human face, for the sake of insurance, the vulgar moved the picture and continued to look backwards, skipping this human face and sure enough, I saw a few more people, not small, motionless standing or sitting there, their faces were all lifelike, some were mostly eroded, and some were well preserved, they seemed to be frozen at a certain moment, and everything retained the appearance of that moment. Then I looked down and saw a huge temple and a tall pyramid, and there were many people around, all of whom were in different moods, like a three-dimensional painting that had already been painted. The vulgar couldn't help but be excited, and continued to watch, and after a long distance, the picture showed the end of the continent, and then the boundless sea, and then the shining stars and the dark night sky appeared on the sea, and finally there was nothing. The customs were not at ease, so he took off the crystal ball, put it back on and tried it again, just like the scene he saw before, this time he was sure, and immediately ran to report to Xingtian, Xingtian was also overjoyed when he heard it.
"What? Got it? Xingtian exclaimed.
"Yes, there's a crystal ball that does come back!" The customs are still very cautious.
"What do you see?" Meng Kong asked excitedly.
"Human faces, and temples, pyramids, continents, and oceans!" The vulgar said breathlessly.
"Star Lord, this should be sure that there is no problem!" Meng Kong turned his head to Xingtian and said.
"Well, I'll take a look!" Xingtian stood up and followed the customs to his laboratory, and several of the customs also gathered around to witness the miracle moment together. The vulgar personally activated the ray transmitter, and then put the crystal ball on, and the picture began to appear, everyone stared at the picture, the progress in front was very fast, and then it became slower and slower, and soon half of a human face appeared on the screen, and everyone was very frightened, and it took a while to slowly calm down, and the vulgar slowly controlled the movement of the picture.
"Stop!" Xingtian said.
"What's wrong, Star Lord?" The rogue asked, pausing the picture.
"What's going on here?" Xingtian asked, pointing to the picture.
"I don't know this very well, according to the current situation, after the Atlantis continent was swallowed into the antimatter world, time was still stuck at the moment when it was swallowed, and after entering the antimatter world, all chemical and physical changes stopped, so there was such a phenomenon!" The vulgar explained.
"Then how can you rot half of your face?" Meng Kong asked suspiciously.
"It's not rotten, it's eroded!" Vulgar correction said.
"Does it make a difference?" Meng Kong still didn't understand.
"Yes," the popular said, pointing to the picture. "Look at his face, it's lifelike, if it's rotten, that half of his face will definitely not look like this! Half of his face is eroded, it should be the cosmic dust in the antimatter world, matter and antimatter will be annihilated once they collide! ”
"Oh, I see!" Xingtian nodded in satisfaction. "Let's put it down!"
"Well, good!" The custom agreed to continue manipulating the picture to go down, in order to make it clear to everyone, the speed was much slower, and then I saw a few people with different expressions, and some of my bodies were eroded, and then I saw the temple and the pyramid.
"Well, this should be the Lost City of Atlantis!" Xingtian said to himself.
"Well, judging by the concentration of the population and the size of the buildings, this should be the ruins of an ancient city!" The popular saying echoed it.
"Now Lan Xingyi's judgment should be convinced!" Meng Kong also exclaimed excitedly.
"How many are there?" Xingtian asked.
"Not much! Out of this land is the boundless sea, and then there is an endless night sky, and after that, there is nothing, it should be on Lan Xingyi's side to penetrate the antimatter world! ”
"Hmm," Xingtian nodded in satisfaction. "Is this the only one with information on the continent of Atlantis?"
"There are some I haven't seen yet! I'll report it to you as soon as there is news! ”
"Well, leave it to the assistants and hurry up!"
"Good!" The vulgar distributed the crystal ball.
"What's next for you?" Xingtian asked.
"Didn't you say before, make some more crystal balls to come out of the crystal balls? I've made it all, and now I'm going to take the coordinates of this crystal ball that sends back signals as the center, and continue to send a batch of crystal balls into the material world to collect information! ”
"Well, Lan Xingyi needs to continue to cooperate and send the crystal ball back, right?" Xingtian asked.
"Well, we also need to send some more people here, and there is still a lot of translation work in the later stage!" The vulgar complained.
"That's a good idea, I'll quickly get the talent to focus on you, and try to crack the language of the Atlanteans as soon as possible!" Xingtian said confidently. While a few people were talking, the horse's head that deciphered the crystal ball came over, and the vulgar greeted him and asked, "How is the cracking result?" ”
"There's another crystal ball with information in it!" The head of the report said.
"Well, okay, let's go check it out!" Ryu and Xingtian came to the ray emitter, and the horse's head who was operating put the crystal ball on it to replay the screen. At first, the picture is also the stars and the night sky, and near the end, the sea suddenly appears, and then you can see the coastline in the distance, with many strange ships docked on the seashore, and on the farther land, you can see tall buildings and sparse figures frozen on the beach. After a while, the coastline was gone, and then the sea was gone, leaving only the endless night sky, and then there was nothing.
"Is this information valuable?" Xingtian pointed to the picture and asked the customs.
"Very informative!" The vulgar said happily. "Through the azimuth coordinates of these two crystal balls, we can determine the boundaries and extension directions of the Atlantis continent, and the crystal balls launched this time will be very purposeful!"
"That's good!" Xingtian said happily.
"Did you find anything else with the crystal balls?" The vulgar asked the crowd again.
"No more!" Assistants, you look at me, I look at you, and they all shook their heads.
"Okay, Star Lord, you get in touch with Lan Xingyi as soon as possible, and then ask her to send back the crystal ball we launched!" The vulgar said to Xingtian.
"Well, good!" Xingtian promised to go with Mengkong, and the customs and assistants first recorded the coordinates of the two crystal balls with information, and then took the first one as the center, and the distance between the first and the second as the boundary, and set the trajectory coordinates of the 10,000 crystal balls according to the arc-shaped path. Xing Tian first arranged for Meng Kong to go and say hello to the linguist, and he used the crystal ball to contact Lan Xingyi.
Lan Xingyi couldn't be happy after seeing Xingtian and Liuxi's disappointed performance last time, there is nothing in the more than nine thousand crystal balls, can I have these few left, this probability is too small, if my previous estimate was not correct, then I couldn't find the language of the Atlantean civilization, and I also misled Xingtian The direction of their research during this period of time, I am really a sinner in history. If this method can't find a way to crack the language, then you can only ponder the pictures that you can't understand one after another, which is not only boring, but also very slow, and how much you can decipher during this time on Earth is still unknown, thinking about it, Lan Xingyi gradually became irritable, more than 50% of people with this brain development also have insomnia, she tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, she was unwilling to give up on the alien base and was afraid of getting disappointed results, and spent a night in a trance.
Finally stayed up until dawn, Lan Xingyi finished washing listlessly and went to school, the tutor was not there, and she could finally be lazy for a while. Lan Xingyi, who was physically and mentally exhausted, sat in a chair in the office in a daze all morning, and when An Guangsha called at noon, Lan Xingyi quickly answered: "Hey? Teacher? ”
"Xingyi, are you in the office?" Over there, An Guangsha asked anxiously.
"I'm here!" Lan Xingyi replied cautiously.
"I'm talking to a few leaders here in the TV tower, and I forgot to bring my documents, can you send them to me now?" An Guangsha said politely.
"Ah, convenient, convenient!" Lan Xingyi said repeatedly.
"My folder is on the table, I'm ready, I forgot to bring it, alas, this memory!" An Guangsha complained to himself.
"Ah, teacher, don't worry, I'll bring it to you right away!" Lan Xingyi put down the phone, picked up the folder and rushed out of the office, and took a taxi outside and ran towards the TV tower. After a while, the tallest building in the city appeared in front of her, and Lan Xingyi got out of the rental and walked towards the TV station. Just when there were still fifty meters away from the TV tower, she suddenly felt a little nauseous, and then began to have a headache, she quickly stopped and adjusted, felt a little better and continued to walk forward, and after a few steps, she felt the same way, so she had to slow down and struggle to the door of the TV tower. An Guangsha was already waiting for her at the door, and seeing Lan Xingyi faltering, An Guangsha hurriedly walked over and picked up the folder: "Thank you for your hard work!" ”
"Ah, it's fine!" Lan Xingyi tried her best to maintain a normal expression.
"What's wrong with you?" An Guangsha suddenly felt that Lan Xingyi's voice was a little wrong, his face was also very pale, and sweat particles rolled down from his sideburns.
"It's fine!" Lan Xingyi covered her chest and struggled.
"Why don't you go to the hospital?" An Guangsha didn't care about talking about things, so he turned around and helped Lan Xingyi's arm.
"Teacher, it's okay, maybe I'm tired these days!" Lan Xingyi waved her hand and quickly made an excuse.
"Then don't go back to the office, go back and rest!"
"Hmm" Lan Xingyi nodded, forced the discomfort all over her body and turned to leave. An Guangsha saw her walk out of his sight safely, and this time turned back to the TV tower. Lan Xingyi struggled to walk in the direction where Gan Cai came, the farther away from the TV tower, the more relaxed her body became, and she didn't feel anything after fifty meters, so she breathed a sigh of relief and went home directly.
After lunch, Lan Xingyi rested for a whole afternoon, and then cheered up and went back to the alien base that night. Soon the crystal ball popped out of the holy grail on the pyramid, Lan Xingyi caught it easily, closed his eyes and thought for a while, and the portrait inside came out, this time only Xingtian was alone.
"Xingyi, there is good news!" Xingtian shouted.
"Oh? What's the good news? Lan Xingyi opened her eyes and asked.
"The last few crystal balls you sent confirmed your previous conjecture, the ancient Atlantean civilization was indeed swallowed into the antimatter world!"
"What you said is true?" Lan Xingyi was both surprised and suspicious.
"How could I tell a lie about such a precious communication opportunity! We found two crystal balls carrying civilization information in the last dozens of crystal balls, and the contents have been read! Xingtian said excitedly.
"And what did you all see?" Lan Xingyi asked curiously.
"In the first crystal ball, I saw half of a human face, which was not small, and the face was still lifelike, half of which had been eroded. There were also a few people in the back, not small, standing or sitting there motionless, all with lifelike faces, some of them were mostly eroded, and some of them were well preserved! Also saw huge temples and tall pyramids! Xingtian described it in detail.
"But they've been swallowed up for a long time!" Lan Xingyi said questioningly.
"That's right, the person in charge of science explained that after the Atlantis continent was swallowed into the antimatter world, time was still stuck at the moment when it was swallowed, and after entering the antimatter world, all chemical and physical changes stopped, so there was such a phenomenon!" Xingtian explained.
"Oh, I see! So what's next for you? Lan Xingyi asked eagerly.
"The customs are going to launch some more crystal balls and explore along the orbit where the ruins of the original civilization were discovered, hoping to get all the language information of the Atlanteans!"
"Well, I'm launching him back here, but fortunately I rested for half a day today, otherwise I'd be tired again!"
"Haha," Xingtian said with a smile. "Thank you!"
After talking to Xingtian, Lan Xingyi threw the crystal ball back the way it came, and after a while, tiny crystal detection balls popped out of the Holy Grail one after another. Lan Xingyi hurriedly closed her eyes and drove the brainwaves to catch the crystal ball, this time it was not as many as last time, there were only more than a thousand in total, and after you pointed it out, she sent it back the way she came, and then rested.
After waiting for a long time on Tianqin No. 1 to collect more than a thousand crystal balls, he was very disappointed and helpless, so he had to arrange an assistant to decipher the information in it. After collecting the information, he handed it to Xingtian, who in turn handed it to the linguist to start deciphering it. To their disappointment, the information collected was pitiful, only a fragment of words, not even a single sentence, let alone deciphering the language of an entire civilization. At this moment, Zi Xingtian was dumbfounded, and the customs were at a loss, so he had no choice but to summon the heads of various sciences to continue to discuss countermeasures.
"Why don't I try again?" Vulgar suggested.
"It's useless to try again!" Xingtian shook his head. "There may be something wrong with our approach, or it's just going in the wrong direction! Continuing to try is just a waste of time and opportunity! ”
"Why are there so few crystal balls recovered this time?" Mormo, the leader in charge of language decipherment, asked.
"That's right!" The popular explained. "The previous time we launched in all directions, and the anti-matter world is similar to the material world, most of the places are vacuums, and the crystal ball passed through smoothly! And this time, we launched against the disappearing continent of Atlantis, and it is estimated that most of the crystal balls should have crashed into buildings and annihilated, or were ejected from the corresponding orbit by the impact, so that they could not pass through the antimatter world at the exit we set, so they did not return! ”
"Could it be that Lan Xingyi deliberately kept some of it and didn't send it back!" Mo Yu asked suspiciously, blinking his eyes.
"Probably not!" Xingtian hurriedly denied it. "After the last lesson, she won't have this kind of mistake again, even if the crystal ball is in her place, she can't do anything with it, the antimatter on the earth can't even crack one ten-thousandth of a crystal ball!"
"Then this little bit of information, trying to decipher a civilized language, is pure wishful thinking!" Mo Yu said in a tough tone.
"I have an idea!" Meng Kong said suddenly.
"You say it's what it is!" Xingtian raised his hand and gestured.
"Writings that record the languages of civilization are usually found in temples, pyramids, or libraries! If we put all the crystal balls into the library based on the information we returned last time, and then concentrate on their information, we can decipher all the languages! ”
"This will definitely not work!" The vulgar immediately denied it. "As long as the crystal ball is in the library, it is impossible to get out, and you can't ask for a crystal ball to go there to flip through books and consult materials! And with the little antimatter we have, it is impossible to create intelligent robots, and even if they do, I am afraid that they will be annihilated as soon as they encounter those substances! ”
"That's just going to throw me into the world of antimatter, I'm going to flip through the books!" Seeing that his suggestion was denied, Meng Kong quickly changed his mind.
"No, no individual is allowed to enter the antimatter world until there is no way to protect their lives!" Xingtian said firmly.
"Why don't we ask Lan Xingyi again, hasn't she always had the most methods?" Seeing that the meeting was going awkwardly, Mormo diverted his attention.
"That's all there is to it!" Xingtian said helplessly.
Lan Xingyi heard that Xingtian had found the Atlantis civilization, and she was excited for a while, just like a scientific conjecture that a scientist had worked so hard to get, and finally it was confirmed, and there was a feeling that life had come true. I had a good night's sleep and went to school the next day in good spirits.
In the evening, he came to the alien base of the No. 29 farmhouse in Xishan Tomb again, and this time he saw that Xingtian and Liuxian's faces were not good, Lan Xingyi was a little puzzled, and spoke first: "Star Lord, what's wrong with you?" Didn't you find the lost city, why are you still so sad? ”
"Xingyi, that's the case!" Xingtian looked at the customs and said slowly. "We had trouble exploring the language of the Atlantean civilization, and this time we sent 10,000 crystal balls, only a little more than a thousand were recovered, most of which remained in the antimatter world. Even the more than 1,000 pieces of information that we brought back were pitiful, and after we passed all the information to linguists, the characters they were able to decipher were not enough to form a complete sentence! ”
"Ah, I see!" Lan Xingyi lamented. "Looks like we're going to have to improve our access to information!"
"And what do you have to do?" When the customs standing on the side heard Lan Xingyi's words, they seemed to see hope again.
"Not yet, let me think about it! Pass me the characters you cracked first! ”
"Hmm" Xingtian and Liuyu both nodded and threaded the characters, this conversation was very brief, and soon Lan Xingyi ended the conversation and went back to rest. After a night, Lan Xingyi still didn't come up with a way, so she had to go back to school absentmindedly, and when she entered the office and saw An Guangsha, she suddenly remembered that she went to the TV tower yesterday, and a new idea came to mind!
