Chapter 384: Who Turned on the Light?
Who turns on the lights?
This question woke up Langdon, and also woke up several other people, when those magic patterns that were probably also the thickest in the world lit up, Langdon and Avina both thought about this problem, but then, because of Langdon's guess, they were shocked and almost forgot about this stubble, although they still remembered, but they were also filled in by the names that appeared in Langdon's guesses.
Lao Wang, the name that Langdon called out when he speculated about what was going on before the lights were turned on, was also the only one in the group who had not yet appeared to meet him.
At this time, as soon as Zhu Lingqi reminded him, Langdon came to his senses that he was a little too serious.
Although the place was covered with dust, and those ordinary materials turned to ashes at the slightest touch, it still did not prove that there was really no one else here, and until the old king showed up and admitted that he had touched something to turn on the lights, everything was just speculation, and it was obvious that they should not let their guard down because of a guess.
"I was negligent. Langdon let out a sigh of relief and said, "But these enchantments are really shocking, if I can print them all, I guess my understanding of this enchantment system can be greatly improved, and I may even be able to master some of it, but this is obviously unlikely, I can't even find a large enough piece of paper." β
"Well, before we are sure that it is Lao Wang, everyone still has to be careful, since this is happening, don't disperse, let's act together, let's take a good turn here." Langdon said as he began to stride towards the huge factory.
It was really big, but the workbenches and the like, as well as some of the tools left on them, showed that the creatures that used them were not much different from normal humans, at least in terms of size, and Langdon was standing next to a workbench that was just the right height for him.
There are a lot of things left behind in the factory, and if you look carefully all the way, the speed of the group is not fast, and it is even more slow compared to this huge space, and it is only a short walk out after 10 minutes.
But Langdon has already learned a lot.
He carried a tool that looked like a screwdriver, which was also engraved with an enchantment, and Langdon studied the effect of the enchantment as he walked.
Behind Langdon, several other people also had something in their hands.
According to Langdon's words, these are all good things, take them first, and when the time comes, if there are not many things, take them away, if there are too many things, they will be stacked first, and then they will be taken next time.
After walking between those workbenches and various small and medium-sized partitions for more than an hour, several people could no longer hold them in their hands, so they could only temporarily clear a partition to place, these were all picked out by Langdon that he felt was the most valuable, and he didn't want to throw away any of them.
Taking this opportunity, Langdon also began to make a brief analysis of the place.
"There is no doubt that this is a factory, but, strangely, the workers here, no, it should be said that everyone in the factory has obviously left in such a hurry that they have not had time to tidy up and tidy up this place. β
"In the partition I passed by before, a magic guide structure has been almost assembled, even the power core is installed, only an arm and a start, but it was left there like that, which obviously shouldn't be. β
"Before I came here, I just thought that this place was consciously abandoned, but now it doesn't seem to be, if it was deliberately abandoned, they wouldn't leave these things behind. β
"They left here because of some unexpected incident. β
Speaking of this, Avina suddenly spoke: "Maybe it's just time for them to get off work, so they all go back?"
"Remember the long passage we passed through here? The rooms with beds in there indicate that there should have been people stationed here for a long time, probably a rotation system, but it is absolutely impossible to run out of the whole factory at once. Langdon explained.
"There should be two possible scenarios. β
Langdon held up two fingers and said.
"In the first case, they encountered something that required them to leave collectively to go to a certain place, which may not be the first time they had encountered it, and it may even be something they were used to, and it didn't take too long, so they just dropped what they had and left here, because for them, it would not be long before they came back to continue, but unfortunately, after that some accidents happened, none of them came back, and this place was abandoned. β
"In the second case, they have a disaster, and the disaster comes so fast that they don't have time to pack their things, and they panic, they can't care about anything, they just want to escape, and that's how it is. β
"At the moment it is more likely that the first case, you see, although most of the places are very messy, and the tables where the things are thrown are all over the floor, there are still many places where the things are very neatly arranged, of course, it may also be that these things were placed like this before the disaster, and those people did not touch them when they fled, but I prefer to believe that the owner of those things packed up like that before leaving, because he knew that what he had to do was easy and would be able to come back soon, so he packed his things in a relaxed mood and then leftγ β
Langdon paused, looked around, and said, "If that's the case, then there's a very good chance that that civilization has already perished. β
"Why?" Avina asked curiously.
"I don't know how many factories this big there are in this civilization, if only this one...... Look around, so many magic guide structures that are about to be assembled are enough to form a fairly powerful force, if that civilization really encountered some kind of annihilation disaster and survived, shouldn't they come here to seek strength first? Even if it is to protect themselves, but no one has come back to complete these magic guide constructions until now, this is obvious. β
"It's still that question, who turned on the lights?" Zhu Lingqi's cold voice sounded again.
"Lao Wang, if you said before that it must have been opened by Lao Wang, then I'm not sure, but now there should be no problem, now there are only two kinds of actions in this factory, one is us, and the other is some magic guide equipment that we haven't encountered and is still powered, but the action mode of those magic guide equipment is very single, and it is unlikely to turn on the lights, then it should be Lao Wang. Langdon said.
"My lord, you guessed wrong this time, it's really not me who turned on the lights. As soon as Langdon's voice fell, a voice sounded, followed by a person with big sleeves fluttering down from above, who else could it be if it wasn't Lao Wang.
"It's not you?" Langdon exclaimed, his face suddenly serious, "Who could it be?"
