366 Bounce Pipa Rakuten
The middle-aged man who smoked a cigar had clearly gone against the decision made by a show of hands at yesterday's meeting, and the 300 noble points that he had supposed to pay for had risen to 1,000.
The middle-aged man didn't go crazy, he believed that once this restored primeval instrument was unveiled, let alone 1,000 noble points, even if it was 2,000, those attendees would definitely not vote against it.
A brand new cigar was lit again, and the middle-aged man quietly looked at the holographic screen in front of him, as if he could already see Impermanence's stunned eyes through invisible signals.
"Weishenme gave me so much?" Impermanence spoke after four or five minutes of silence, "I know the value of noble points, hunting an adult flame lizard is just one point, and the fighting skills compiled by Lord Thief Tuo can be stolen by more than a hundred noble points, and today you actually gave me a thousand noble points......"
"Who are you? What kind of class are you in the Noble Alliance? It must not be low, and the person who can shoot thousands of noble points at any time is also a top figure in the pyramid of the Noble Alliance......
Impermanence didn't wait for the other party's response, he just talked to himself as if he wanted to get rid of the confused emotions in his heart. It's a pity that his subconscious words made the other party find a flaw again.
"In human proverbs, the word pyramid appears very frequently, and people often use pyramids to describe the organizational structure of society, from a country to an organization, and can use the spire and the base to describe the different positions of people. But...... People only know about the pyramid that it used to be a building, but what kind of building is it?"
"Stop, stop...... You're starting to wonder again, do you think I also know the secret of this phrase?Tell you, I'm not God Almighty, I'm just a mortal......" Impermanence didn't dare to continue, he was afraid that this fox would be completely drained.
"Oh, dear friend, you have made me curious again...... There is no such thing as God in the universe now, God only exists in ancient texts, which was a god worshipped by humans in ancient times, and now this universe knows very little......"
"Zaijian!" Impermanence didn't wait for the mysterious man to finish asking, and opened his mouth to say zaijian, he wanted to escape.
"No, no, no, you don't have to be afraid, I won't force you. I can take out more noble points, but I will respect the other person's wishes. Don't you want to know how many points I gave you? You were curious just now......"
Impermanence hesitated for a long time, and began to type on the screen, "Don't play my words, I don't know as much about the primeval period as you think, and my master only knows a little about it......"
The cigar mystery man took a hard puff, letting the pale cyan smoke spin back and forth in his lungs, and then his fingers began to tap quickly on the holographic screen, and the speed was so fast that his fingers turned into an afterimage.
"Of course, noble points are very valuable, and if you use the price of a flame lizard to make an analogy, you are actually underestimating the value of noble points. You must know that the preciousness of noble points is actually reflected in all the members of these noble alliances who are eligible to enter the mission hall......"
"In the aristocratic alliance, there are magicians, peak warriors, and of course, secular royals, elites from all walks of life. It can be said that the people who can enter the mission hall to wander around are already recognized as successful people in the world. If these people get together and want to do something, how much energy do you think they can burst out?"
"The larger the Noble Alliance, the better the talent attracted, the more valuable the corresponding Noble Points will be. The reason is very simple, because the tasks that can be completed in the quest hall will become more and more difficult, and there will even be super difficult tasks such as assassinating the emperor of a country...... Hehe, just three days ago, there was a mission that offered a reward of 500 noble points, and the mission had only one goal, which was to cause civil strife on the planet Gaochang in the border area of the Huahan Empire......"
"You can think about it, someone actually offered a reward of 500 points to buy a planet riot, and someone actually accepted the task, and it succeeded...... You can imagine the preciousness of noble points, how can this be the value that one or two stink lizards can embody?"
At this point, the middle-aged man was silent for a while, threw away the precious cigar that still had more than half of the remaining in his mouth, and lit another one.
"1000 noble points, how many things can be done, you should have a general understanding, of course you can't afford a frigate-level battleship, but you can still buy a low-level fast assault battleship or missile cruiser. If you want to buy a merchant ship or a transport ship, then you can buy it as you like, and the highest-quality goods are not a problem...... That's the actual value of 1,000 noble points......"
"I know you have doubts, maybe those old words in your heart are worthless, but you are wrong. For the League of Aristocrats, knowledge is always the most precious, and that is the priceless treasure of human shijie. It doesn't matter how much money you have, how much effort you have, or even how many planets you have, in the eyes of the League of Nobles, all this is false, and only culture is the most precious ......"
"Since the beginning of human exploration of the universe, to the current scale, do you know how many terrestrial planets have been developed and are being developed? At least 108,000, and how many human populations are in the universe now? It's a pity that even the Noble Alliance doesn't know. Not only that, but the progress of human development of the universe has never stopped, and human beings are still expanding......"
"It's the worst of times, and it's the worst of times. The oversized human society has made all management methods backward and inefficient, and if it weren't for the jishu of the identification code to be the chain of zuihou, human society would have collapsed long ago. We have created endless wealth, expanded endless territories, multiplied endless populations, and created endless technologies and civilizations......"
"Everything looks so good, but how many things have we lost? Tell you the truth, there are too many ...... count."
"The simplest example, since the invention of the space folding engine until now, how many years has human beings spent? Who can answer this simple question? Haha, let me tell you the truth, human science and technology are so advanced, but we don't know how long our historical life span is, and we don't even know how many years this history of space development has gone through......
Impermanence looked at the words beating on the screen, and his heart had already set off waves, everything he had heard today had not been told to him, it was a completely strange shijie displayed in front of him.
"Since human beings have been able to fold space, human civilization has experienced three major **, known as the three major rifts of human civilization, which are three civil wars of the human race that affected the entire universe, and the wars have even beaten human society to the level of slash-and-burn civilization, that is, because of these three major cultural rifts, human beings have lost 90% of their civilization memory......"
"Can you imagine that scene? Maybe yesterday you were on a journey of hundreds of light years, and today because of the war, you have to go to the wasteland to grow potatoes yourself, and you have used cold weapons to protect this poor ration...... It seems to be a brilliant high-tech shijie, but it is so fragile in the face of war, and the life of Ru Mao drinking blood is actually not far from human beings......"
At this time, the mysterious cigar man was already a little excited, and this excitement also made Impermanence feel it.
"Who kept human society from completely sinking out of the Great Rift Valley? Who protected the scientific and cultural knowledge? And who searched for the surviving planets again and again, and then passed on this knowledge for free?"
"It's us, our alliance of nobles, that we have protected so many fragile cultures that we haven't let the war destroy them. Only then can human beings stand up again from slash-and-burn cultivation and drinking blood, and only then can our human warships continue to exist in this universe and bring human civilization to eternal ......"
"The end of the universe is a journey, and the journey is endless, and there will be no end to human civilization...... Maybe one day, when we see the end of the universe, the edge of darkness, maybe that is the moment when our human civilization finally dies, but until then, the noble alliance will continue to escort human society, especially our fragile civilization, we have to make countless copies of each specimen, and then treasure it in the corner of the universe forever ......"
"Maybe one day, when the Great Rift Valley of the Fourth Civilization appears, our Noble Alliance will still be able to replenish this collapsed universe......"
The topic has become unusually heavy now, and Impermanence sits at the table looking at the light on the holographic screen, unable to say a word with his mouth half-open. He never thought that a few ancient poems and a few ancient sayings would actually let him know such a big secret in the aristocratic alliance.
No wonder the organization structure of the aristocratic alliance is so loose, no wonder they don't have such a strong desire for territory and money, it turns out that they are only thinking about the survival of this human civilization, they are the group of people who really stand at the top of the pyramid.
The cigar smoker did not continue the subject, he knew that some things could not be done quickly. Even if Impermanence is a smart person, it takes time to digest some new information. He closed the terminal in silence, and without saying anything about zaijian, he ended the conversation, leaving Impermanence alone in the bedroom in a daze.
The middle-aged man snuffed out the cigar in his hand and turned to leave the hall, behind him there was a long corridor that led to some point. In this corridor, only the middle-aged man is alone.
After walking for more than ten minutes on the hundreds of meters long corridor, a small hall of more than 30 square meters appeared in front of him after an airtight door was opened at the end, and in the middle of the small hall, a tall stone slab was suspended in mid-air, countless lights were projected on it, and a beautiful mural appeared in front of his eyes.
"Baby, my baby, I finally know your name...... Bounce Pipa Lotte ...... It turns out that those two words are called pipa, and the instrument behind you is really a ...... from the primeval period."
If impermanence was here, he would probably recognize it at a glance, this floating mural is the most famous mural in Cave 112 of the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang in the previous life, the name is "Bounce Pipa Lotte
