Chapter 190: Welcome, Dear Dean! (4400,2/2)
「.... Restrictions on logins?"
Ian was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing: "Oops, reincarnated for too long, I forgot that there was such a thing on Earth in my previous life - how can an important work area allow tourists to enter casually, it must require permission."
"As for my permissions..."
Raising his head, Ian looked up at the huge keel that seemed to be close in front of him, but was actually far away in the sky.
The 'Xenomorph Research Institute' in the labyrinth of subspace is unimaginably large, and the super giant keel that is at least a kilometer tall alone is amazing enough, and the twelve kilometer-high towers surrounding the keel are even more majestic like mountains, they surround the keel, forming a twelve-prismatic space.
If other Terrans had come here, they would have thought that a pre-era civilization was preparing to create its own true dragon, right? Or maybe they dismantled the remains of a real dragon, leaving only the bones to continue their research.
But in reality, it's not true. It's 'transforming'.
Ian could see that the real dragon with only white bones left was absolutely not 'dead', he just fell into silence, or rather, its "physical body" with the remaining white bones had not died, and the incredibly powerful vitality was like a heart vibration, constantly shaking the entire subspace labyrinth, making the "Ancient Dragon Heart Core" in his body also resonate with it, making Ian, who had no heart anymore, feel a burst of ferocity and palpitations!
Phantom heartache. This feeling was actually quite strange, and it made him laugh: "It seems that the source of the dragon's blood, the highest level of life-extending strange things, is the target of the fifth-level powerhouses...... With such a rich and incomparably abundant breath of life, it is no wonder that the lifespan of a fifth-level powerhouse can be extended."
"And the goal is so big, no matter where you get to this subspace labyrinth, you will definitely see it as soon as possible." As for what exactly the pre-era civilization was transforming the keel containing the "Source of Dragon's Blood", .....
Ian could vaguely discern that it seemed to be a ..... Spaceship?
On the body of the real dragon's corpse, some metallic flashes could be faintly seen, which were added the day after tomorrow, and it was far from finished, rather just beginning. Obviously, the pre-era civilization wanted to metalize this keel, which may be the prototype of the 'mechanical dragon' of the later generations?
But in any case, that kind of wrapping transformation method, Ian can only think of the spaceship.
Use the true dragon's bone as the keel and build a living metal spaceship!
It seems that the pre-era civilizations were not completely devoid of spaceship technology, and even though they may have a contract with the Star Gods, they still poured resources into it.
But time was running out, and all these resources were left here. "Looks like no one has been here for a long time."
Looking away from the keel in the distance, Ian looked around at the surrounding factories, and nodded slightly, "I also understand why the dark gold dragon induces these young generations of Terra with dragon blood to come over."
The strength of the Dark Gold Dragon is a real fifth-level after six years, and many fifth-level powerhouses in Terra can't intercept it..... But is it really impossible to intercept?
Not to mention the empire's Sun God Bird inheritance, after all, the empire may not want to care about this troublesome matter, just the Canaan Moore Silver Gate family inheritance, Speaker Yafuda's spatial teleportation ability, can't they teleport the fifth-level powerhouse of their maintenance department, the Aoba family's Hengyuan Wind to the dark gold dragon that has not yet begun to accelerate?
At this point, after Ian knew about Japhda's ability, he left an eye on his heart, and later, judging by various signs, Ian guessed that the dark gold dragon had an ally among the elves, and that ally was Speaker Japhda.
On the way to the spiritual calamity, the reason why his prophetic prophecy was heard so quickly by Canaan Moore is probably also along the line of Anfa - Ember Lantern House - Silver Gate Family - Speaker Yafuda - Anyway, the departure of the dark gold dragon is already unstoppable, so simply evacuate some people and reduce the losses reasonably.
The purpose of the Dark Gold Dragon is clear, it is clear that it wants to gain power and leave Terra and go beyond the Prison of the Stars. So, what is the purpose of Speaker Japhda?
It's actually quite simple.
at
During the time of the World Tree Capital, Ian learned about the struggle between the Ten Kings and the situation of the Silver Gate family in recent years through the channel of Anfa..... He had a vague bold conjecture.
That is, Speaker Yafuda set up a trap with the dark gold dragon, intending to hunt down the fifth-level powerhouse who might enter the Xenomorph Research Institute, the fifth-level powerhouse of the Ministry of Realms.
It is not only the revenge of killing brothers, but also the partisan dispute.... Behind Speaker Yafoda, it may even be the entire Sustaining Party.
As the ruling party, the Fifth Department of the Maintaining Party is tired of arguing with the Five Divisions of the Pillar Party in this world of imminent great controversy, and they want to set up a conspiracy that cannot be refused, and at this rare opportunity, snatch the "blood of the top seat" that is grasped by the Pillar Department.
The fifth-level powerhouse, who is so old that he has already chosen an heir, and is estimated to die in six years, will definitely not let go of the source of dragon blood - but if he really goes out to snatch it, it is hard to say whether he can grab it, and his life will definitely be gone after the fight, and he may not be able to leave a life span that can cultivate an heir.
Therefore, the top seat of the Ministry of Territorial Affairs will definitely play small tricks.
The signal Japhda sent to Ian was probably set up against this small trick..... He may have seen through Ian's prophetic identity and part of his true strength, believing that Ian could reach the third layer at the speed of the previous few with the assistance of Anfa, so he asked Ian to do him a favor and activate a device that might be hidden in the ruins.
It's hard to say what the specific effect of the instrument is, anyway, it must be aimed at the ancestor of the Ministry of National Territory.
This is the internal struggle of Canaan Moore, and the conspiracy between the fifth energy level, whether it is Ian or others, is just a pawn of this scheme.
But here's the problem.
- Why didn't the Dark Gold Dragon come into this "real xenomorph research institute" by himself, and instead let Japhda gather the younger generation of the world?
"Because He has no authority."
Ian chuckled inwardly, "If the Dark Gold Dragon is really an echo of the Precursor—whoever it is - it must be a 'man-made thing' anyway, and he doesn't have the authority to be a researcher or a dragon's blood holder to cooperate with the experiment."
"He may not even be finished, so he has the strength and dragon blood, but he can't enter the labyrinth of subspace..... He definitely doesn't want to destroy this subspace labyrinth, and he won't allow high-level powerhouses to enter it, so he can only cooperate with Yafda to let young people like us enter, and he uses some means to open the subspace labyrinth with the help of our power."
"And once the Darkgold Dragon is finished, and obtains the source of dragon blood or other resources in this research institute, he may be able to become a full fifth energy level in six years—in that case, the problem is big."
"Of course, it should be more than the source of dragon blood.... The source of dragon blood is difficult to destroy, even if the subspace labyrinth is damaged, at most it is lost in the virtual realm, and it will definitely be found if you look for it..... What he really wanted was some information from the Institute? There is not enough information to speculate."
With what he's seen and heard along the way, Ian has fully understood the twists and turns that are happening in the Xenomorph Institute. As a prophet, he should understand all the causes and consequences before acting, so that he can take advantage of the situation.
Of course, in addition to the Canaan Moore Civil War and the Dark Gold Dragon's cracking of the authority of the Xenomorph Research Institute, there are also the respective plans of the Empire and the Heavenly Royal Court, and the Capital of Knowledge brought the Thousand Star Beasts they raised, obviously they also have their purposes..... Even Anfa is always a little distracted after entering the ruins, and there must be a purpose for the Ember Lantern Department behind her.
Not to mention, the Worship of the Dragons and the Dragon Island.....
Although the Dragon Worship Sect of Nanling and Canaan Moore is now almost eroded by the forces of various countries, there must be some pure Dragon Worship members mixed in the ranks, and they definitely have a purpose. And Dragon Island faced the source of dragon blood, and the remnants of the civilization of the previous era that signed a contract with them, and his heart was definitely not as calm as it appeared.
- Maybe in the end, this place will become a fifth-level battle!
Thinking of this possibility, Ian felt that he probably figured out what those inexplicable total annihilations might have been about..... If the final state of affairs really comes'
The point where the fifth energy level of all countries gathered in Half Moon Lake to start a big war is probably the opening of the Terra World War.
By that time .... All have to die!
What Ian has to do is to find another part of the 'Gift of the Star God', while searching for information about the pre-era civilization and the Star God, and in the process, avoid the worst of everything.
So, the first step to achieve this outcome should be. "Silver Chip."
The corners of his mouth curled, and Mahdi smiled at the permission confirmation window floating in front of him: "Show permissions."
- Since the Dark Gold Dragon has no way to control all the equipment permissions of the pre-era civilization related to psionic energy, why not use the silver chip now?
- Xenomorph Research Institute, your dean (the chip) is back! The silver glow flickered, and Ian lifted his hand to touch the window.
After a violent flash, the permission confirmation window began to refresh a large amount of data. And then there's the light!
[Conduct identity checks.... Mistake.... Determine the level of security._... Highest.... Routine permission detection is invalid, and manual confirmation is carried out....
【Warning! The Federal Xenomorph Research Institute and the Limpur Subspace Park have been in a state of unmanned automatic maintenance for a long time, and 82% of the blocks have been detected to be damaged/missing/changed/destroyed.
[The first layer of the 'ecological garden' has spiritual pollution, the second layer of the 'shelter' 75% of the buildings are lost, the time system is abnormal, the third layer of the experimental garden's main control system is 99% lost, the fourth layer of the 'biochemical test site' is completely disconnected, the fifth layer.... Mistake! 】
[The main control system of the Federal Xenomorph Research Institute has been confirmed, and there is no intelligent life in the research institute]
[According to the intelligent system escrow process, the authority is now confirmed by the main control system agent] [.... Confirmation completed.....]
[Clearance Level: Director of the Federal Xenomorph Research Institute, codenamed 'Forerunner']
[Welcome, Dear Dean.] The main control system of the Federal Xenomorph Research Institute salutes you, you already have the highest authority of the Xenomorph Research Institute]
[Dean's exclusive access has been opened to you] at the same time.
The entire Xenomorph Research Institute came to a halt abruptly. "Huh?"
The outside world, the surface.
During the exploration of the garden, the original staff and support personnel were scattered and fled, because the coercion of the fourth energy level, which had already begun a full-scale confrontation, had already made all the creatures within a radius of hundreds of miles feel uneasy, palpitations and fear.
But at this moment, all the fourth energy levels turned their eyes sideways and looked underground.
I don't know what happened, but just now, there was a slight movement in the whole earth! Inside the Xenomorph Research Institute.
The first layer of the horizon, which was originally illuminated by the sun lamps, suddenly fell into darkness, causing all the small forces to wander around this level to panic, but soon, the lights were rekindled, and many of the sun lamps that had been extinguished before began to flicker and light up again, and a miniature repair robot began to start, repair the broken lights, and clean up the flooded river.
On the second floor, the Dusk Shelter, the same 'shutdown and restart' event occurred - as the entire shelter was restarted, many disc-shaped cleaning machines and maintenance robots hidden underground poured out of the many warehouses and supply buildings, and one after another compression capsules automatically uncompressed, releasing those maintenance modules that had been preserved for more than a thousand years.
On the third floor, the Scarlet Courtyard, the scarlet color is gone.
All warnings and danger signs were removed in an instant, and the orange and green "Under Repair" and "Temporarily Closed Here" labels reappeared!
"What's going on?!"
Many of the members of the exploration team were stunned by this vision, they had never encountered such a situation at all, and for a moment they stopped where they were, not daring to continue their actions.
"Actually?!" And the heirs of great powers, such as Aina and Gar, were shocked and incredulous: "The relics are activated?!"
"The remnants of this pre-era civilization have been reactivated—it's intact enough to be restarted?!"
"Quick!" There is no any
He hesitated, Gar led the team, accelerated towards the 'Central Abyss', and shouted angrily: "Although I don't know who did it, or if it was a sudden situation, but now we must enter the subspace as soon as possible!"
"Let's go!" At the same time, the Emperor's eldest grandson, Aina, also urgently urged the team to take action: "The ruins are reactivated, although I don't know the specific situation, but this place will soon become very dangerous!"
"In this ruin, the pre-era defense facilities that have been silent before they are activated are about to be truly activated!" In the middle of the blood-colored courtyard.
Isengard, Anfa and Theo, who were hiding on the sidelines, waiting for the other exploration teams to come here, and they were one step behind, and the three of them were also aware of the anomaly.
However, compared to the unbelievable and unbelievable of the others, the trio has a kind of understanding. "Ian has only been in for a few minutes when this kind of mutation has occurred in the entire Xenomorph Research Institute.....
Theo gasped as she exclaimed, "Who is he? The Pre-Era Man who came back from the dead?"
"I think it might be his dragon blood, the dragon blood of one of the core authorities in the Xenomorph Research Institute back then....." Anfa looked at the blood-colored courtyard that was no longer bright red, and subconsciously muttered, "No wonder, I just said that his dragon blood is too pure.....
Isengard, on the other hand, was silent, his brow furrowed.
It wasn't that he was frightened by this unusual situation, at this moment, the blonde boy just thought of one thing.
- No matter what authority Ian has, what kind of mutation he can cause, it's all a trivial matter. - Rather, the more authority Ian has and the more he changes, the more terrifying things become.
Because, things are very simple.
"Obviously, you have such permissions..."
He said solemnly, "But I still have a premonition that I will die." "Ian, your real enemy..... Who is it?"
At this moment, Ian in the Subspace Research Institute took a step forward.
In one step, he came from the dean's exclusive passage in the subspace to the main control room of the Federal Xenomorph Research Institute. In the brightly lit panoramic screen room, there is only one modest seat.
In the seat, an ancient and mutilated corpse sits there.
