Chapter 648: Divine Creation
After seeing that the destination was in sight, the convoy of the Kaka tribe picked up speed, and it took about an hour or so to reach the high black wall.
At this time, troublesome things appeared, although there were some obviously artificially dug holes in the high wall, but after being searched by the people of the Kaka tribe, there was no hole leading to the inside of the wall, of course, the people of the Kaka tribe only searched for the nearby holes, and did not search for other places, especially the holes above.
"Turning around the convoy, we went around and saw if we could spot the way inside. Standing on the roof of a carriage, Abaham Kasa shouted to the people who were surrounded by a massive wall of sucking.
As the convoy began to turn, it moved quickly along the edge of the giant wall.
By the time he reached the edge of the wall, Leo had already put down the book in his hand, his eyes seemed to be able to see through the tent and see the scene outside, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The curtain of the door suddenly opened from the outside, and Elijah walked in, the expression and complexion on his face showed that he was very excited, and after seeing Leo, he didn't care whether Leo listened or not, and said quickly: "Do you see it? ”
Leo said indifferently, "If I were you, the most important thing to care about now is not how great this thing is, but the safety of your people. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Ilya looked at Leo with some displeasure, then thought for a moment and said, "Do you mean those sand scorpions and sand snakes? Don't worry about this, I checked it just now, once you get close to this black wall, those sand scorpions and sand snakes will all disappear, and they don't seem to dare to approach here." That's a good thing for us, at least we don't have to worry about any killer attack. ”
"It seems that you don't understand. Leo said with some seriousness: "You must know that desert creatures such as sand scorpions and sand snakes are particularly sensitive to danger, and they will never go near things that make them feel dangerous. ”
The look of excitement on Ilya's face immediately subsided, and she also showed a serious expression, confirming it, "You mean to say that this black wall is in danger. ”
"I don't know!" Leo had used the spirit net to inspect the wall just now, but the result was somewhat unexpected, because in his psionic energy, this high wall did not exist, and the psionic energy penetrated the past without hindrance.
"Are there any dangers mentioned in those books?" Ilya asked, gesturing to the stacked books beside Leo.
"I haven't seen the relevant books yet, your tribe's collection of books has not been organized, and they are not arranged by date, it is very confusing, and I can't find relevant books for the time being. Leo said indifferently, then picked up the book of poems called Creation in his hand and shook it, and said, "And I've been reading this book recently, and the other books have been put down for the time being." ”
Ilya's eyes lit up when she saw the book Leo was holding up, and she put aside the danger mentioned by Leo for the time being, and then asked Leo with great curiosity, "How have you interpreted this book?"
Leo thought for a moment and said, "This is a poem, and the main content in it is about creation. ”
"Creation?" Ilya's eyes widened, also stunned by this content, she also knew very well that there was no myth of the creation of gods in all the scriptures of the church, although she did not understand why this was so, but she also knew that it seemed to be a taboo.
In this poem, it is recorded that the Dark Nebula experiment created a stable space, and the astral fluid gave life the possibility of survival in this space. Leo briefly explained the content of the first chapter, because the Dark Nebula Experiment and the Star Fluid could not find the right words to translate, so Leo simply said it directly in the lower lingua franca of the Wycombe Abbey, so this pronunciation sounded very strange to Elijah.
Ilya didn't understand anything like space, but she still relied on her common sense to try to understand Leo's words, and asked in a positive way, "You mean that there was a god named the Dark Nebula Experiment who created our world, and then a god named Astral Fluid gave life to our world, right?"
Leo was stunned when he heard this, and smiled: "That's right. ”
"Is that the only part of the book?" asked Ilya again.
"Of course not, this is just the first chapter," Leo said. As he spoke, he paused and said with a serious expression: "But you must know that the content of this book must violate the taboo of the church, and if it is circulated, it may be very unfavorable to your tribe, if the church knows that you understand the content of this book, what will be the consequences, I believe you also want to get it, are you sure you want to know the content of this book now?"
Ilya thought for a moment, shook her head decisively, and then asked Leo, "What about you, aren't you afraid that the church will know?"
"Of course not, even if the church knows, it doesn't matter. Leo said with great confidence.
Ilya also felt that he was right, pursed her lips, suddenly bored, turned around and prepared to leave the tent, but when she reached the entrance of the tent, she suddenly stopped again, turned around and pointed to the book in Leo's hand, and said, "If you finish reading, help us burn it!"
Leo raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you trust me so much? Aren't you worried that I didn't tell the truth just now and let you lose an important ancestral book?"
Ilya said disapprerovingly: "A powerful person like you should disdain to lie to me with such words, and if you want, just take this book away, why bother to lie to me?"
"Haha! You're an interesting little woman. Leo smiled, and then hinted, "If you have free time, you can come and walk around my tent often, and if I don't have anything else, I might be able to teach you something." ”
When Elijah heard Leo's words, she didn't understand it for a while, but she quickly realized what Leo meant, and her face immediately showed a look of surprise, and she asked with some excitement: "You mean to teach me ......"
Leo interrupted Elijah and said, "Don't be too happy, I'm just teaching you something, whether you can learn it or not depends on your own ability." ”
Ilya didn't take Leo's casual attitude to heart, because in her opinion, as long as she could learn some practical methods of strength from Leo, no matter how much, it would only be good for her.
At this time, there was a sudden shouting outside the tent, and when Ilya heard it, she did not stay in the tent anymore, and immediately walked out, and then the convoy gradually slowed down.
Leo also stepped out of the tent, stood on the wooden frame next to the coachman, looked at the black wall, and then turned to look at the front of the convoy.
I saw that there was an extra crack in front of the huge wall, this crack was very spacious, enough for two carriages of the convoy to walk side by side, although the walls on both sides of the crack looked untidy at close range, and the walls with smooth outer surfaces were completely different, but at a slightly farther distance, you would find that this crack was actually very neat, and it felt like a huge guillotine had cut through a complete wall.
Bahan Kasa was a veteran of walking in the desert all year round, and he was naturally very careful, so he did not rush to let the convoy into the rift, but found a few capable old people from the tribe and went in to check the situation.
Originally, these old people of the tribe were reluctant to go, because they knew very well that once they entered, they would encounter danger, and it would be difficult for them to escape, and this was simply a dead person.
However, after Ilya offered to lead the exploration team, these old people of the tribe had nothing to say, after all, even the daughter of the patriarch took the initiative to stand up, and if they retreated, I am afraid that the people of the tribe would directly throw them into the desert.
But Abahan did not agree to Ilya's request, and his reason was very strong, that is, if Ilya had an accident inside, then it would be impossible for the convoy to leave the Guga Desert again, after all, the only person who could lead the convoy out of the Guga Desert was Elijah.
Faced with this situation, those veterans naturally had no way to refute it, so they could only honestly enter the rift and explore the situation inside the rift.
However, the danger of the illusion in everyone's minds did not appear, and soon the veterans walked out of the rift, and told the convoy with a look of surprise that the rift was a short distance, and then a gentle slope, and after climbing the hill, they entered an oasis surrounded by high walls, and the oasis was overgrown with various plants, and there was no danger.
After hearing the words of several veterans, Abahan no longer hesitated, and immediately directed the convoy into the rift.
Leo did not stay in the carriage any longer, and after jumping out of the carriage, he came to the great wall, reached out and stroked the black wall, bent down to pick up a piece of rubble that had peeled off from above, and put it in front of his eyes to examine it.
He found that this black stone was different from any cosmic substance he knew, but it looked like a man-made thing, and the raw materials used to make this kind of thing were very special, and it could even affect the spiritual network, which made Leo think that before he died, he had seen a news that a certain advanced civilization had developed a way to hide itself when the omega-level advanced life forms were detecting life energy.
It's just that he quickly denied this speculation, because judging from various circumstances, this black stone is like air under the action of spiritual energy, and his spiritual network can still penetrate the center surrounded by the black wall, perceiving everything in it, so this black wall has no effect of hiding objects.
Leo took the black stone in his hand and walked while studying the mystery inside, although this stone has a great impact on psionic energy, but it has very little effect on other forces, he can use the power in the imprint of the gods, to analyze this stone with common sense, to see if he can find out the mystery contained in this substance.
The convoy soon drove into the heart surrounded by a huge black wall, as the veterans said, the center was like a garden oasis, where a large number of plants grow, and there were many animals that were extinct in the outside world, and what made everyone feel amazing was that all the animals here were herbivores, not a single carnivore.
It didn't take much time for the convoy to find the temporary garrison that had been built when the people of the Kaka tribe had returned for the sacrificial ceremony, and there were still tents and household items that had not been taken by the last sacrifice more than a hundred years ago.
Seeing the traces of the tents set up in the station, the pure Kaka tribe people in the convoy couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of their hearts, because judging from the number of tents that were set up, the Kaka tribe at that time was at least a few thousand, and from the perspective of the area of the entire camp, it was enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, but the current Kaka tribe was only a few hundred people.
However, they soon recovered from that inexplicable mood and began to set up their quarters for sacrifices to be sacrificed in a few days.
Leo didn't help set up the station, but walked alone through the dense woods to a small lake in the middle.
After coming here, Leo felt a little strange, not that Leo felt any danger, but he couldn't figure out what this place was built for.
There is no doubt that even in the universe, building this huge basin-shaped container in front of you is a big project, and if you roughly calculate, the manpower and material resources spent to build this place can build at least two small warships, and even the advanced civilization of the universe probably does not have the luxury to spend such a huge price to build a useless thing.
"Is it really a sacrifice?" Leo walked around the edge of the small lake, carefully looking at the terrain, and he found some stone terraces of unknown function and a circular sacrificial field used for sacrifices, and the doubts in his mind were not lessened, but increased.
"What are you looking for?" asked Elijah, who had commanded the people to set up their tents, as Leo returned to the Kaka tribe station.
She had just noticed Leo's behavior of looking around after he came here, and she couldn't help but guess that Leo might have discovered some secrets related to this place from his ancestors' books.
"Who do you think built this place, and what did you build it for?" Leo didn't think Elijah was lacking in knowledge and despised the other party, but instead regarded her as a subject to discuss the problem, and directly voiced his own doubts.
Ilya was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "What's there to think about, of course this place was built by those ancient gods who have disappeared and don't even have their names left? As for the purpose of building this place, of course, I hope that the descendants of our gods will sacrifice to them, so that they can know that there are still people in this world who know about them." ”
Elijah's words were like inspiration, and Leo realized that he might be thinking too much, what if the purpose of building this place was to sacrifice?
For a moment, various thoughts immediately came to Leo's mind centered on sacrifice, and he immediately hurried back to the tent, and instead of studying the creation poem, he picked up other books and quickly flipped through them, as if he was looking for something.
