Chapter 4: The Book of the Dead
After seeing Yin Yuetian and the two, he immediately stood up and raised his hands high, indicating that he would not attack each other.
Yin Yuetian didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, and he didn't have the interest to kill, so he passed by Gryffindor.
"Wait...... Wait a minute! When Gryffindor saw him like this, he hurriedly shouted.
Yin Yuetian seemed to be woken up from his sleep, and the originally dull Sanwu showed a gentle smile on his face, and turned around and said in a very penetrating tone: "Hello." ”
"Hello ......"
Gryffindor was visibly nervous, and he waved his hand and said, "Please don't do it yet, not only do I have no ill intentions, but I want to seek cooperation." ”
Tesa was curious: "Cooperation!?" Haven't you hooked up with a few people before? ”
"Can you not use the word hookup?"
Gryffindor explained with a wry smile, "Ever since that damn Mr. Mystery told me about another role of nanobots, several people in my makeshift group have been full of hatred for me, and they blame me for the reason they injected the nanobots, damn it!" It's clear that they are greedy for money, and I do my own thing, and I am not an example! ”
Tesa giggled, "So they want to deal with you?" ”
Gryffindor spread his hands: "Obviously. ”
Tesa grinned with her hands behind her back: "You are afraid that they will kill you so you run away, aren't you afraid that we will kill you?" And, aren't you an accidental killer? Why are you still afraid of those guys, I remember that you ranked very high on the killer list. ”
"My ability is to predict and calculate accurately, plus the speed and force of a period, which is the opponent of those people."
"That's right, as far as I know, the 'accidental killer' also kills people by creating coincidental accidents."
Yin Yuetian's voice without a trace of emotion interrupted the small talk between the two people: "If I accept your willingness to cooperate, what can you bring me." ”
Tesa was shocked: "Huh! You've actually become lukewarm? ”
Yin Yuetian ignored her, just staring at Gryffindor.
The latter smiled wryly: "I can probably guess why you are willing to cooperate with me...... Mainly because of Book of the Dead, right? ”
He explained to Tersa, "Since this young gentleman doesn't know the information of the Book of the Dead, and I have previously proposed to work with Mr. Mystery on the Book of the Dead, then I should have some knowledge of the book." ”
He made a gesture of please: "Shall we talk while we walk?" ”
The cloudy moon turned and walked forward, cold as a stone in the snow.
Gryffindor and Tesa followed, the former explaining, "The City of Steel only appeared at the end of the Cataclysm more than a hundred years ago, when humanity already possessed the ability to resist otherworldly life and close the turbulence of space. The sudden arrival of the Iron City on this small island did not cause too much trouble to mankind, when the United Nations advance force went to the largest Otherworldly Source Cave in the South Pacific, by the way, exterminated some of the mechanical lifeforms in the city, and destroyed the Otherworldly Source Cave above, so the city was left on the island. ”
He additionally explained: "The spatial source cave is actually something similar to the 'Two Realms Gate' produced after the turbulence caused by the space-time magnetic field, and both sides can enter and exit it freely. It's just that at that time, human beings were very reluctant to protect themselves, how could they break into other people's territory? The spatial source cave can not only pass through life, but more often 'leak' a city or building in that world to the earth through the natural subsidence of the other world, the most famous of which should be the ancient beast's nest that descended in the capital of China and the Gundam Outer Space Base in New York, USA, God, it was a catastrophe......
Most of Gryffindor's explanations were not covered by Marilyn and Mohican, and in fact, as the Cataclysm ended, many people chose to forget this memory.
The desire to absorb knowledge did not interrupt Gryffindor.
"This steel city that appeared on the island because of the spatial source cave was forgotten after the war, not deliberately, but there are too many otherworldly relics left on the earth, and humans are busy recuperating, who will explore here?"
"Later, some scientists found remnants from the other world in many ruins, which not only have extremely high research value, but also have abilities beyond the scope of human understanding, so a group of expeditions to and from various ruins in the world appeared, they are usually composed of scientific researchers and hired evolutionaries, because the ruins are often lurking in the remnants of otherworldly creatures, and even if a hundred years have passed, spatial turbulence will be from time to time' Missing some lives, these beings will instinctively look for the buildings of their own race, so the danger in the ruins is still greater than the opportunity. ”
"It wasn't until five years ago that a group of people remembered this abandoned city through past records, and then began to form an expedition, and the leader of it should be this mysterious gentleman. Because I was an avid lover of ancient ruins myself, I joined the expedition at that time. ”
Speaking of this, there was a hint of panic in his eyes: "At that time, there were eleven expeditions to this island, but only a few people survived here, and the only team that found the 'Legacy Treasure' was only one team, and they obtained a book called "Deachnote", that is, "DeachBook". ”
"Why did you change the word 'note' to 'book'?" Tesa fully expresses her curiosity about the nature of her baby.
"Because it's full of text written in Cybertronic. Scientists feel that it is more dignified to call 'book'...... But that doesn't seem like the point, right? ”
Yin Yuetian said lightly: "Then let's talk about the point." ”
"Well, actually, Cybertron's text, to put it bluntly, is the language of the space where the autonomous mechanical life form is located, and humans have cracked it a lot. I had the pleasure of reading that book once, but I only knew a few of the words on it. ”
"Death, unnaturalness, soul, words."
"Listening to scientists, it is very likely that this book will have the ability to dominate the lives of others if it is thoroughly researched. I don't really care about this ability, because we're killers, aren't we? But I hope to figure out some of the 'rules' through this book, such as what the so-called soul of mechanical life forms is, and what death is in their opinion. ”
"It's just that Mr. Mystery has bought off the leaders of all expeditions with a lot of money and monopolized the Book of Death. Later, I wanted to come here a few times, but I was told at the port in Australia that the island had been bought, and now that I think about it, I think it's Mr. Mystery. ”
Yin Yuetian pondered for a long time and said, "Cybertron text, is it difficult to study?" Five years and still haven't figured it out? ”
Gryffindor said: "It's difficult, contemporary linguists, the main study of the underworld and the heavenly realm of the text is the most, Cybertan, should be considered unpopular." This is already a part-of-the-road discipline, not to mention that the users have almost disappeared. ”
Tesa said, "It shouldn't have disappeared. ”
Gryffindor said, "Huh? What the? ”
Tesa said, "What you encountered in this abandoned city before should be a mechanical lifeform, right?" ”
Gryffindor said, "A lot." ”
"There's a lot of mechanical lifeforms in this city. ”
Gryffindor was surprised, "How do you know the Dao?" ”
"Because we're here." Yin Yuetian stopped, bent down on the ground and picked up a broken branch, and smiled coldly: "Mr. Mystery's financial resources are obviously not enough to invite a relatively large group of evolutionaries or even the United Nations army, otherwise the danger of this city will be eliminated, and his own men will be able to enter here to find Bill, why risk the Book of Death being taken by someone to invite us." ”
Tesa agreed: "I think so too. ”
Gryffindor said: "Actually, I think so too, one of the purposes of my coming here is also to find a way to catch a mechanical lifeform and go back to learn Cybertron writing, how about young sir, do you want to make a deal?" S$5 million, you can catch one for me. ”
Tesa laughed, "You can call him Yin." ”
Yin Yuetian stared at the branches and fiddled with them a few times: "You can pay for it." ”
"What?"
Before Gryffindor could figure out what the other meant, the cloudy moon had already bent over like a cheetah, and then there was a dense clanging sound in the woods.
Gryffindor and Tesa glanced at each other, clearly seeing the horror in each other's eyes, and hurriedly followed.
Kerala ......
A few bucket-thick trees fell to the ground, revealing an open space of more than 20 square meters.
In the clearing, a mechanical lifeform more than three meters tall covered in rust was shaking its body and waving its fists rapidly, and at the same time, around him, several shadowy figures were rapidly attacking from all angles.
This mechanical lifeform was very fast, but it was very clumsy compared to Yin Yuetian, and its heavy punches kept hitting the surrounding trees and ground, smashing dirt and wood flying around, but it could not touch Yin Yuetian's body.
Soon, Yin Yuetian pulled back to the two of them and smiled quietly.
His eyes were slightly open, and his fierce eyes raced.
Tesa noticed that the biggest expression was that of the expressionless boy, and there was still some doubt in her eyes.
"Ah......" Gryffindor pointed to the hand of the cloudy moon, "your ...... Weapons. ”
No wonder he screamed out at the scalpel in Yin Yuetian's hand, and anyone who saw the scalpel as a weapon would be a little surprised, right?
Yin Yuetian raised his right hand, and some slight notches had already appeared on the scalpel between the second joint of his index finger and middle finger.
He shrunk the scalpel into the flesh and gnawed at the calluses that had been sharpened from the second joint of his middle finger, not knowing what he was thinking.
The mechanical lifeform didn't seem to want to continue fighting, and slowly retreated.
Tesa leaned over and vaguely heard half a sentence from Yin Yuetian's mouth.
“…… I can't cut it. ”
