Chapter 693: Survival
The warrior who had just recovered from death was still very weak, coupled with the fact that he had just forcibly entered a fighting state and fought against Shandora's mental oppression, it took him almost to collapse in just a few minutes, and when the identities of both sides were confirmed, the other party didn't even have the strength to stand up.
As a last resort, we had to put him back in the medical cabin, at least inside, where his physical strength could no longer be consumed.
I asked Pandora and Viska to avoid it for the time being, although the Atlantean warrior named Ares already knew that the two sisters were not the same as the "demons" who had destroyed their homes (well, at least in theory), but the sisters standing here would obviously seriously affect each other's emotions, which is the same as you know that the road is fake, but watching the midnight bell still affect the food is a reason, and it should be okay to say this description, right?
Eventually, Sandora and I came to the restored calm of Ares, the giant with the name of the god of war who had been muttering something to the hospital since he had been lying in the medical chamber, and it sounded like some kind of ancient prayer, but no one could understand what it meant: it was the ancient Atlantean language, perhaps.
That's when you can see how wise it is to use Chinese to dominate the world from the very beginning of this book.
"Where are you from?" Sandora frowned and looked at the tall man lying in the medical cabin, "In our records, Atlantis has been completely destroyed. "We survived, after that disaster. Ares was immobilized by the medical pod and couldn't turn his head, so he could only look at the sky and answer in a deep voice, plus I and Sandora were staring at people like hospices, this big man looked really vicissitudes, "When our kingdom was attacked by demons and floated from the land," the last god who remained in the city activated the sun-burning obelisk, and the city of Atlantis separated from the already collapsed continent and carried Mount Olympus into the sky, The Servants of God and the Chosen Gods of Atlantis, who eventually retreated to the city, were thus spared: "We have seen our homes fall into the infinite lava and be shattered in the flames, and many of us have gone mad that day, and it is not until many years later that we have come to our senses." β
"Sunburn obelisk? What's that? Sandora frowned, this Atlantean artificial god with the name of the god of war is probably used to using their god-chatter titles to describe the machinery left behind by the original Xiling expedition, and talking to him makes us feel like a code.
"Forgive me for questioning" but that's what your God made. Ares coughed, bluntly confusing herself.
"The Sunburn Obelisk is your own name, and the Empire has never made such a thing." οΌββ¦β¦ I beg your pardon, the shock of the other day may have hurt my head, I forgot about that...... The Sunburn Obelisk is a massive quadrangular prism, at least hundreds of meters long, buried deep in the summit of Mount Olympus, the part of which rises above the ground is a large temple that houses the throne of Zeus. It was originally an energy source for Atlantis, and we draw energy from the Sunburn Obelisk "to keep the city's machinery running, but when the demons descended, the gods transformed it into a weapon and defense device that resisted several thunderbolts from the sky. My father, Zeus, was ordered to guard the Sunburn Obelisk and use the energy extracted from it to form lightning bolts to fight back against the demons' sky warship" until it was brought to life by the surviving god Moragus JΔ« and turned into a flaming torch of energy...... The obelisk forms a shield over the entire city of Atlantis and sends us into a remote and empty dark space, a desolate and dead place, where only a dim star appears above the heads of the people of Atlantis for three hours a day, and the rest of the time we can only face the near-eternal darkness...... Thus, the light of the sun-burning obelisk has become the last light of faith of the Atlanteans, and it has shone on us for hundreds of thousands of years, allowing us to persist to this day............ Ahem......", Ares coughed violently, this strong warrior had consumed too much strength in the last battle of his life, and was now as fragile as a child.
"He may be referring to a ghost energy tower that provides stable energy for the starship" For a scientific expedition team that does not take combat as its mission, this energy source is basically the maximum standard of equipment" Sandora curled her index finger against her chin, "But the defensive power provided by a ghost energy tower is impossible to really withstand the attack of the general-level apostle, it seems that the dimension of the crazy state ...... Wan Du didn't be able to eliminate all the expedition team of the Xiling Apostles in a short time, but for some reason they engaged in a protracted battle with the latter, maybe it was just a bad fun in a state of madness, anyway, she gave the Atlantean civilization a chance to escape from home. Moving on, something must have happened to you, Atlantis City may have been transported to some brown dwarf in another universe, but how did you end up in outer space hundreds of thousands of years later? Is your city under attack? Ares closed his eyes, and there was a hint of horror in his face, which surprised Sandora: since the first meeting, this powerful warrior has always shown his fierce side, fighting and roaring fearlessly with a Kratos-like stunned spirit, even in the face of Visk, who had destroyed his homeland, he was only furious and did not flinch in the slightest, but now he actually brought a frightened expression?
Unless Atlantis suffers a second catastrophe!
In the intimate onlookers of Sandora and I like a hospice, Ares finally spoke slowly, but did not answer Sandora's inquiry immediately, but recounted a history after the end of the world: "The sunburn obelisk has sheltered us for hundreds of thousands of years in the vast space of space, and God has given us endless life and patience to survive the darkest days. Since activating the obelisk, Moragus, the last god who escaped from our homeland with us, has been sleeping in the pantheon due to exhaustion, and Atlantis has been waiting for the great god to reawaken so that he can lead his people out of the dark and cold hell, because we have found that no matter how much we study the knowledge and machinery left by the gods, we can only make limited progress, and we lack the resources to understand the truth, and it is impossible to master the methods of controlling the obelisk. In this way, with the last candlelight, Atlantis lingered for hundreds of thousands of years. Until a few days ago "a great catastrophe struck."
A sinful creature from the depths of darkness strikes Atlantis. I said, this big brother sees that you judge the Japanese and the fierce bones are quite Kratos legacies, can we not talk like a serial?
"Sorry, I can't describe what that thing looks like" It was a huge piece of metal, coming from the depths of space, probably even across space, and by the time Atlantis' alarm system reacted, it was already in orbit of the city, and the combined defense of our ancient anti-aircraft installations and several Olympian servants had no effect on the metal, and it easily broke through the city's protective shield, and finally crashed into the foot of Mount Olympus. The terrible impact severely damaged the foundations of the Sunburn Obelisk, plunging two-thirds of the city into darkness. After a long period of damage to the self-circulating factory left behind by the gods, Hephaestus was unable to create a device to repair the obelisk, and could only barely restore the barrier above the city. But this was only the beginning of the disaster, and when Hephaestus went to the base of the obelisk for the third time to check the damage, he brought nightmarish news: the servants of the gods who lived at the foot of Mount Olympus, who had not had time to evacuate after the great impact on Lou Sheng and were thought to be dead, had returned, and had become twisted and crazy monsters. "It's the one who turns into space amber with you." β
I nodded, stringing together a series of intel items.
Ares let out a sigh from his throat: "They used to be the most devout saints guarding the ruins of the Great God. β
"What happened after that? Why are you locked in a meteorite? What happened to Atlantis? "After the report of the first monster appearance came back, more injuries were reported one after another, Hermes ventured deep into the impact site to collect information, only to find that this mutation was very similar to the method used by the demon who destroyed the Atlantean civilization to use ordinary creatures to degenerate and go crazy, we know the contagious power of that thing, and as a last resort, my father had to order the blockade of the foot of Olympus. All the divine servants who could fight were recruited to "stop the infected who tried to rush out at the foot of the mountain, and the battle lasted for three days and three nights, with no hope of victory in sight." β
"On the fourth day, something worse finally happened."
"After being defeated many times, Atlantis' ancient urban energy system exceeded its carrying limits" and gradually lost its ability to purify evil energy, and the network of spectral energy near the point of impact may be the first to break, and Hephaestus simply cannot repair it. The demonic power descended through the gaps in these ancient barriers into the unpolluted city, and the city machinery that had served the Atlanteans began to explode one after another. I was caught up in the self-destruction of the Self-Circulation Factory Seven while fighting the enemy, and I didn't have time to escape, so I was caught up in the half-finished melt of the factory with the enemy...... God-given strength kept me alive" That's it. β
Sandora and I looked at each other, and there was so much that could be analyzed from the information provided by Ares that it was suddenly overwhelming.
The reason for the existence of the Atlantean civilization is now easy to explain: the last surviving scientist of the Hiling expedition at that time seized a ray of life when Viska entered the glory form, activated the energy matrix originally used for the engines of the expedition team's spacecraft, and caused the entire city to break away from the continent of Atlantis and escape into another world. Become a colonial starship with deep space cruising function, otherwise, even if Xiling Technology is a ghost, it is impossible to make a mixture of earth and rock with a cross-world cruising function with only one battleship energy matrix.
Visk's madness had miraculously made this daring escape a miraculous success, and she didn't care how many people would escape from her own destruction, because she had no sense of victory, and destroying a civilization and destroying an uninhabited planet seemed to her to be the same game.
But the successful escape was only the beginning of another difficult time. Perhaps due to his injuries, the Imperial Technician named Moragus fell into a long slumber shortly after escaping into deep space in a starship, and a rudimentary colony ship converted from a starship engine apparently lacked intelligence and automatic navigation, and the colony ship without its captain could only orbit a brown dwarf for hundreds of thousands of years in another inhospitable universe.
Prior to this, with the support of the Imperial Expedition (perhaps just the study of evolution like observing animals, think of all the concepts of the old empire that prioritize racial interests can also come to this conclusion), the Atlanteans have developed an extremely high civilization "and also began to study the imperial machinery, but how to say, the huge gap in the level of civilization is impossible to make up so quickly, not to mention the loss of the vast planetary base as research support, Atlantis technology is at its best: no one can develop newer technology, and no one can reactivate the city's interworldly teleportation capabilities.
Thus, the glorious first season of the Earth civilization became a group of wanderers wandering in another world, slowly ending in this sad way, and now hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and their home planet has been in the vicissitudes of life.
I don't know if I'm going to tell Ares that he's back in his homeland.
The wanderers who left their homeland hundreds of thousands of years ago have returned, but their homeland has become a new ruler, and even the entire planet has changed a new group of rulers. I'm afraid that Ares, who has been transformed into a demigod warrior, will not be able to accept this fact.
Sensing my struggle, Sandora steered the conversation in another direction, "You don't know what the wreckage of Mount Olympus is that way, do you?" β
Ares nodded, "I just remember that thing was wrapped in black flames and cut through the sky." "It seems to be another ruin destroyed by the abyss, colliding with the ruins of Atlantis. Sandora groaned, "And then? There must be something big going on, otherwise a physical collision alone wouldn't have allowed you to travel to another universe. What else happened before you were engulfed in those melts? β
Ares struggled to recall, and finally said with some certainty: "This information may be useful...... Before I could take part in the last battle, Hephaestus shouted in horror that the energy output of the Sunburn Obelisk was getting out of control. Well, and then I remembered before being engulfed! In the last second, someone outside the factory was shouting loudly~", Ares paused suddenly, and then took a deep breath, as if to regain the fate-changing cry.
"Horizon!!"
The Giant Warrior's voice was deafening, even in the weak, but neither Sandora nor I could blame this guy for suddenly going crazy.
After a moment of sleepiness, the two of us understood the meaning of these three words at the same time: "You see the horizon in space!" Atlantis City's World Realm Teleportation Engine has been brought to life by JΔ«! "Yes, horizon, horizon", the muscles on Ares' face twitched, excited that he finally remembered it, his violently agitated muscles even the locks in the medical chamber creaked, and his loud and impatient voice made the eardrums tingle, "yes, how could I forget this...... Horizon Atlantis is saved, we finally see Horizon, they must still be fighting............ Armour! My armor! My weapons! Erneo! Send me to the battlefield! No time to waste......"
Middleway through Ares's words, Sandora did not hesitate to activate the medical module's forced hibernation function.
"This can make him regain his composure," the girl next to him sighed, "It seems that the strong mental impact has made him a little confused. β
"Do you know where Atlantis went," Lou whispered, groaning slightly.
"Where else can it be, there is only one option that we can rule out at present, and there are not so many ...... in the world of plate-level crossing."
"Okay, the Yakumo Purple family is in big trouble, I hope those demigods created by the empire hundreds of thousands of years ago can still resist the attack of the abyss monsters, otherwise Reimu and the others will eat people."
I looked at Sandora with a twitch on my face, and I was filled with emotion.
The former eyes also forced the little girl to work in the enterprise to redeem herself, this feng shui takes turns, is it her turn to pay the compensation for demolition so soon?
Sandora rested her head lightly on my shoulder, and she had maintained that lofty and majestic posture when Ares was awake just a moment ago, but now she suddenly appeared to be so weak.
"Ah Jun, what did we do in the past......
I said in my heart, don't involve me, but the words turned into comfort: "What happened to Atlantis can't be regarded as the responsibility of the Empire." β
"If the expedition hadn't appeared, they would still have evolved a splendid civilization, and Viska might not have been invited............ Are we right that the old empire hastily changed the course of countless intelligent civilizations by observing animals? I thought about it for a moment and explained a question with materialist dialectics: "Anyway, if the Atlantean civilization is still there, I will definitely be gone." β
Sandora: "...... The mind is much more balanced. β
Feed! Don't be so quick to convert! I still have a line to finish!
After a little warmth, I finally took care of Sandora, who was in a state of withdrawal and seeking comfort, and then immediately began to arrange the teleportation work to Gensokyo, the intense work of the Time and Space Administration in the past few days has not been fruitless, we have roughly determined the division of Gensokyo in the void, and if Ares is an Atlantean of the world, it may be possible to locate the location of Gensokyo immediately.
But when I was arranging work, Lin Xue suddenly came.
With Lin Feng's girlfriend Shalì, and something ancient: the relics of Atlantis.
(It's really painful to be working overtime today, and what's even more painful is that I'm going to work overtime until the first day of the Lunar New Year.) Okay, it's customary to ask for a monthly pass.,It's already the fourth one, or if you don't think about giving it next month.,Ah.,There's nothing to do in overtime............ οΌ@γ
