244 blocked with blood
When Xiaohua walked into the wide circular hall, a light scanned Xiaohua's forehead somewhere. A phanthropic shadow gradually condensed in the air, and the language of the Ancient Rune Spell, which contained many trills and strange tones, resounded in the hall.
This is the "Zhiling" guarding the inside of the pyramid, which can be compared to the AI system that is used by modern humans for the technological equipment used, and it is the kind that really has independent intelligence.
The identity of Xiaohua is able to awaken the scan of "Zhiling". Therefore, it is not only a sacred beast guarding this facility, but also a key key to entering here in the right way.
Qi Qing and Mo Xun had seen artificial intelligence in the shape of a big fish in the ruins at the bottom of the lake, which was logically similar to the "Zhiling" here.
This "Zhi Ling" also has a fixed transfiguration form, and after it appears, it is actually a panda, which looks like a juvenile miniature version of Xiaohua, a normal-sized panda. It's clearly self-conscious and, like the buildings here, has a long lifespan. Its image will dissipate unless it runs out of energy.
It's like the huge city that sinks to the bottom of the lake, and one day, it will never see the light of day again.
Since this huge pyramid once powered the "ladder", the undead may have successfully immigrated to other planets, indicating that its energy system has been able to maintain its function for thousands of years.
Nowadays, unless there are controlled nuclear fusion facilities with sufficient raw materials and stable operation, other energy conversion modes cannot achieve such a long-term continuous energy supply.
Here, as well as those huge pyramid buildings all over the world, have their own unique energy systems. The amount of energy required to allow humans and those huge vehicles to move through space in a short period of time must be staggering.
If the "Sky Ladder" is really an energy facility left over from the construction of a huge moon, then it will take nearly 10,000 years to reach the end of the mythical era, when the undead are still active on the surface, and it is very likely that it will be repaired and reused. Moreover, the undead "improved" its control program during the repair, and perhaps this "intelligent spirit" was not the original control system of the pyramid.
From Mo Xun's professional point of view, whether it is the original control system of the pyramid or the current Zhiling, it is just an operating system. The Mind may be self-aware, but its underlying program should be able to be cracked.
He suspected that the sacrifice was a lock deliberately added by the undead, and the "Wisdom Spirit" was used to forcibly control this energy facility. The lock carries a special identification pattern that locks down this ancient high-tech facility, allowing only those with minority characteristics to use it. In exchange for controlling resources, they earn their own flesh and blood.
Today, having seen those exquisite murals with his own eyes, combined with various existing materials, Qi Qing also agrees with Mo Xun's speculation.
The undead, as well as their attendants, the Yin clan, had only made use of these ancient energy facilities. In the first place, it may have been possible to use it without sacrificial sacrifices. If this energy facility could be mobilized without sacrificing human lives and without the manipulation of a specific clan, then the importance of the undead and the Yin clan would be greatly reduced.
Therefore, in order to maintain their status and control, the undead and the Yin clan made "changes" to the facilities, adding "Zhiling" and divine beasts, and blocking these technologies with their own bloodline characteristics, which makes sense.
This blockade method can't even break the four-leaf clover at the moment, so he has to try to cooperate with the Yin family.
By the time the undead "immigrants" left, the age of mythology ended, and the civilization in the Central Plains had regressed. With the hard-core scientific and technological facilities of the ancient period mastered by the Yin clan, they had the strength to conquer a large territory, establish the Shang Dynasty, and use the "time and space gate" to travel around the world to consolidate their influence and dominance.
But this "abuse" may have accelerated the energy loss of these facilities, so that the facilities finally shut down? Or is it that the Yin clan's bloodline has also been diluted, even if it is as pious as in ancient times, it is impossible to have enough power to activate the equipment?
The eight surnames of ancient times continued to mix blood, and their alien abilities gradually disappeared, in exchange for the reproduction and growth of ordinary human races. Is the Yin clan also like this, for the sake of the stability of the rule of the Central Plains, it has to merge with other bloodlines.
According to historical records, the royal family of Shang became more and more dim as they went on, and their ability to communicate with their ancestors and the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth gradually declined. This is also a reason for the demise of Shang indirectly.
"Zhiling said that there is an intruder, and it is in the urn in front of it." After Yin Xiu communicated with Zhiling, he fed back this information.
The word urn, Qi Qing used the [Ancient Rune Illustrated Book] to check the writing, and it was also expressed on the mural just now. In fact, it is to put people in a huge urn as a sacrifice, which is a magic weapon to start the sacrificial ceremony.
According to the description of the mural, the undead will turn the people in the urn into blood through divine power, and at the other end of the urn, connected to the drinking device, the undead will greatly increase their mental power after sucking the blood water, thus opening the energy facility.
This energy facility can not only supply the energy needs of a large area, but also connect the equipment that manipulates the weather, create good weather conditions, or send bad natural disasters to punish the tribes who refuse to give in.
Qi Qing felt that this kind of equipment that could control the weather, after upgrading and iterating, was a bit like a big killer weapon that could control natural disasters now.
Of course, this thought was only fleeting. They have to be careful of Yin Xiu's plots for now. If there are still survivors in the first batch of special combat team members, then she and Mo Xun may be able to help?
The combat effectiveness of that "little flower" is definitely not bad, and it is definitely not a tall and strong ornament.
Qi Qing found an opportunity and walked to Xiaohua's side.
Xiaohua lowered her head and sniffed, Xiong Ke is much more sensitive than human sense of smell, and the good smell hidden on Qi Qing's body attracts Xiaohua more than fresh flesh and blood.
So it made a soft and cute cry, and Qi Qing took the opportunity to feed the [Pet Domesticated Candy] to Xiaohua, and said to Yin Xiu: "Xiaohua is so cute, just like a giant panda in a zoo." ”
Yin Xiu said warily: "What did you eat for Xiaohua?" ”
Qi Qing explained: "I have honey candy on me, which is my favorite snack. Originally, I didn't want to give it to Xiaohua, I couldn't hold it and wanted to eat it. ”
Yin Xiu asked Xiaohua with an ancient rune spell, and Xiaohua only replied: "Sugar, it's delicious." ”
Yin Xiu thought to herself, Xiaohua can't communicate with Qi Qing anyway, and it's useless to eat candy to brush up on favorability, after all, these two people may become Xiaohua's snacks for a while.
Mo Xun asked, "Can we open the urn and take a look?" If it is indeed our people and they are still alive, we will take them away. ”
Yin Xiu was a little worried: "It looks very strange here, but according to my understanding, the contents of the urn are already dedicated to the gods, and it seems disrespectful to the gods to take them out." ”
"Are the undead a kind of god in the age of mythology?"
"It can be understood that the undead are clearly gods compared to us humans. If they annoy them, they will punish them, turn the oasis into a desert, let the rain keep causing floods, and so on. Our Yin clan has some legends. Yin Xiu's answer sounded very detailed.
But the more moderate the attitude, the more suspicious it becomes. Just like when herding livestock into a slaughterhouse, workers tend to be more patient.
Qi Qing had a hunch that Yin Xiu couldn't bear it anymore. Then, a strange scene flashed in front of her eyes again, on the high platform, Yin Xiu was covered in blood, more like a sacrifice. Could it be that they were wrong to blame Yin Xiu before, Yin Xiu also knew nothing about the sacrificial culture of the Yin family's ancestors, and finally got something wrong?
