The square here is surrounded by rows of seats.

The dark sea passes silently through the abandoned square, and the water shimmers with sparkling lights, as if countless pairs of eyes open and close in the water.

At the beginning of the summer, he turned around, stirred up a piece of seawater, and also shattered the light in the seawater.

Passing through this square, Xia Chujian saw an empty street, curving and stretching in the dark color of the deep sea, and I don't know where it leads.

It can be seen that this Arkham City should have been a very lively place in the past.

The street is lined with crowded shops with crumbling doors and empty windows.

The various goods displayed inside have long been flowing with the tides, and I don't know where they have been taken.

As a result, the streets appear deep and desolate, and an unsettling atmosphere pervades all directions.

Natsuhatsumi sneaks in front of a narrow street paved with stones.

There is no light in the sea, only those fish that can glow swim in front of them, forming shadowy paths.

The houses on the street are also entangled in huge seaweed, like heavy curtains, covering untold secrets.

The whole street is filled with the smell of time forgotten.

This is Arkham City?

The legendary Unknowable?

No matter what it used to be, in the eyes of Xia Chujian, this place is old and old, exuding an atmosphere of calm to the extreme, but because of extreme depression, it is on the verge of madness.

The looming minaret in the distance, the blue-black eaves, and the man-high bell on the left side of the bell tower all seem to hide the deepest secrets, revealing an indescribable strangeness.

At the beginning of the summer, he settled down and swam along the streets of the underwater castle.

She swam unhurriedly, and the eyes behind the eyepieces looked around even more vigilantly.

At the end of this street is a tall building with a white minaret.

The style of this building is also familiar to Xia Chujian, or the people of the Jeonbuk Chen Empire are also familiar with it, because this is what the temple looks like.

The holy churches of the Jeonbuk Chen Empire are basically like this.

But the sanctuaries of the Beichen Empire are all gray buildings, equally solemn, and the roofs have arrow-like spires.

And the building at the bottom of the sea is white.

I don't know what the white building material is, but it has not changed color under the washing of the sea, and it is not even damaged in the slightest.

The door of this building has a black plaque with four lines of gilded letters.

"The water is surging, and the mountains are green. The layers are tired, and the nobles are coming. ”

Xia Chujian was curious and swam in.

When she was returning to the distant star, she had visited the Templar branch once and knew what it was like.

Sure enough, what I saw was a hall that looked exactly the same.

The roof of the hall is very high, and when people stand in it, they only feel the sky and the earth, and the powerlessness and insignificance of manpower.

It's the feeling of the church.

But this white castle is under the sea, which actually gives people a more shocking feeling.

Because in the city-state, there is not a church like a pulpit on the top and chairs below, a place of worship for believers.

To be exact, this is a library, a very large library.

From the bottom to the top, the hall is full of dense bookcases, including the four walls.

The bookcase is filled with all kinds of books of different sizes, large and small, revealing a strange luster in the seawater, like jade that has been polished by time.

This is unparalleled for Xia Chujian, who lives in the age of electronic data, where all books have been digitized.

She even felt a sense of devotion and worship.

It's like the worship of the believer's own God.

But she is not for God, but for this overwhelming book of knowledge.

Knowledge is the ladder of human progress.

Books are only carriers of knowledge.

Natsu Hatsumi slowly swam over and looked at the bottom of the left side of the hall.

All she could see was the title on the spine.

Some of them are Beichen characters, and Xia Chujian can understand them.

For example, what is "A Preliminary Study of Mathematics and Physics", "New Solutions of Plane Geometry", "Fundamentals of Physics Volume I"......

At first glance, it is full of such science and engineering books.

Not a single literary work.

Xia Hatsumi breathed a sigh of relief.

Her math, physics and chemistry grades are not bad.

Although physics is the last semester, it is only after my aunt's bad supplement that it is considered an entry.

She tried to reach over and pulled out the book of Fundamentals of Physics Volume I.

As soon as the book arrived, she felt that it was much heavier than the physical books sold on Star.com.

And the front and back covers are hard, not the feeling of a paper book.

Of course, Xia Chujian thought that if it was a paper book, it would have been soaked in water all year round, and it would have been soaked a long time ago.

Although it is a game, it is also a 3D holographic simulation game that follows the rules of real-world physics, so there will be no such loopholes.

A few weeks ago, the books she had found in the cave in Haidagon at the bottom of the Morisawa Star were not paper, but very rare leather books, so they were not damaged by the sea.

But now the book in her hand is neither paper nor leather.

Xia Chujian asked Qilu: "Qilu, can you recognize the texture of these books?" ”

Qilu whispered: "Master, this is a book with the texture of bamboo slips. A long, long time ago, before the invention of paper, people mainly used bamboo slips to keep records. ”

Xia Chujian looked up, looked at the countless books in the entire hall, took a deep breath, and said, "These books are all bamboo slips?" ”

Qilu said: "It should be, but the production method is more advanced, not the original kind of bamboo chips." ”

Xia Chujian asked again: "Qilu, who do you think these bamboo slips belong to?" Is it in your database? ”

Qilu's little children's voice was a little confused, and said, "I don't know." Qilu's database actually has the history of the Beichen Empire, and Qilu can check where Arkham City is after going out. ”

"Judging from the situation here, it seems that this Arkham city has sunk to the bottom of the sea due to geological changes, at least several epochs old."

According to the calendar of the Beichen Empire, an epoch is a million years.

Xia Chujian was very happy and said, "It turns out that Qilu's database also has historical records!" Is there a military history of the Beichen Empire? If I had, I wouldn't have to quit again and again, and go back to the 'game guides'! ”

Qilu said: "Master, although they are all historical records, the people who record them are different, and the things that are written are also different. Doesn't the host mind? ”

Xia Chu said confidently: "Since they are all historical records, the basic historical facts should be the same, at most the expressions are different, or the praise and disapproval are mixed." ”

"Because it is people who record history, and if it is people, they will have their own biases, I understand."

"But abandoning those secret biases, I only want a basic record of historical facts."

"Like who fought a battle where, who won, it's as simple as that."

"As for why that loser lost, and even though he was defeated, I don't want to see it."

Qilu said: "But Qilu has also seen someone say that history is written by the victors, so the truth will never be known." ”

Xia Chujian scoffed: "People who say such things, this sour grape is really boundless!" ”

Qilu's little boy was a little confused: "Does the master think this sentence is wrong?" Qilu thinks it makes sense......"

Xia Chujian said earnestly to educate Qilu: "Qilu, you have to think so." Theoretically speaking, history is written by the victors, which is the most in line with historical facts. ”

"Because the victor did win, you don't care how he won, even if it was only a victory for a period of time, it was still a victory, and this was the basic historical fact of that period of time."

"You have to write a loser as a winner, or a glorious loser or something, that's distorting history."

"Every piece of history has its own winners. It is normal that the winner at that time may later become the loser. ”

"But those who compile history can't mislead others, and if they want to whitewash the losers and write defeat as victory, they should go to hell."

Qilu understood, and hurriedly said, "The master is right! Qilu got it! ”

"After Qilu goes out, you can also sort out the historical materials in your database, and if there are any contradictions, mark them."

Xia Chujian nodded with satisfaction: "Qilu, you must do it!" Come on! ”

Qilu's little children's voice trembled with excitement: "Don't worry, master! Wait for Qilu to go out and promise to complete the task! ”

Xia Chujian heard something wrong at this time: "Wait, Qilu, you can only sort out the historical materials after you say it?" Then you ...... now."

Qilu's little boy said with some embarrassment: "Qilu's database has confidentiality measures...... The game system here can't be replicated. ”

Xia Chujian frowned: "Then how do you know that these books are bamboo slips?" ”

Qilu's little children's voice was cautious, as if he was afraid of angering Xia Chujian, and said: "Master, to know the materials of these books, you don't need to search in the database, this is the common sense that Qilu has." ”

"Qilu's common sense has been copied into the game."

See you at the beginning of summer: "......"

It's very angry!

I thought I had found another shortcut, but I didn't expect it to be blocked.

Therefore, these freshmen have to experience these near-death experiences over and over again in the game before they can complete their studies.

Xia Chu was sullen and put the bamboo book back, and swam around the high bookcases in the hall.

She asked Qilu to try to record some of the names of the books, but the contents did not have time to read.

Her plan was to get out of the game and look up the books again.

She had scoured all the bookcases in the hall before she swam to the only small door at the edge of the hall.

Entering through this small door, there is a long black corridor.

The promenade is lined with glass on both sides, and you can see the fish swimming and swaying marine plants outside.

Xia Chujian subconsciously said: "Qilu, if this city sank to the bottom of the sea because of geological changes, why are these glasses still intact?" ”

Qilu said: "Master, we have to analyze the composition of these glasses. The texture of different glasses can resist different pressures. ”

Xia Chujian: "...... Oh, that's fine. ”

This question requires a wealth of theoretical and practical knowledge of physics to answer.

Xia Chujian didn't want to be too nerve-wracking.

She turned a corner along the corridor, and a glimmer of light appeared in front of her, as if she had reached the end of the corridor.

Xia Chu saw that he was busy and sped up and swam to the light in front of him.

There's also a door.

The glimmer of light leaked out of that door.

Natsu Hatsumi slowly pushed open the door.

A brighter white light greeted her, illuminating her subconsciously closing her eyes.

The light was so intense that it was as if a white sun appeared in front of her eyes.

Even if Xia Chujian closed her eyes, she could feel the intense white light, enveloping her whole body.

After a while, Natsu Hatsumi's eyes adjusted to the white light.

I slowly opened it to see what kind of place it was.

In front of me is a clean and clean laboratory.

The laboratory is oval-shaped, and it seems to be full of silver-white utensils, clean as if it were in another world, not the dark and dirty bottom of the sea.

In the laboratory, experimental devices that look a little familiar are placed there.

There were also experimenters in white coats, walking around the laboratory, holding electronic notepad-like things in their hands, or checking the data, or arguing with each other about something.

Xia Chujian wanted to ask Qilu what kind of place this was, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that it was different.

She had no helmet left.

Xia Chu suddenly felt bad, and hurriedly looked down at himself.

Sure enough, the Shao Si Ming mecha on her body was gone.

She was still the same school uniform she wore when she entered the nutrition pod.

And Qilu switched to the appearance of the pocket beckoning cat, and was sleeping in her pocket at this time.

See you at the beginning of summer: "......"

She didn't mean to wake up Qilu either.

Everything here is really normal to the point of weirdness.

She was worried about some unexpected trap, so she watched quietly at the doorway for a while.

None of the experimenters in white coats inside noticed that someone was standing in the doorway watching them.

Xia Chujian observed for a long time, and felt that those people didn't seem to be fake, so he walked into the laboratory with a white light.

Once inside, the white light was not so dazzling.

Xia Chujian felt that his eyes had adapted, but when he looked at the ceiling overhead, there was no light at all, and he didn't know where the white light just now came from.

She was looking curiously when someone suddenly said to her, "Why didn't you come in without changing into your lab clothes?" ”

"Although this laboratory is yours, you have to follow the rules!"

"Outside clothes carry viruses and bacteria that can have a devastating effect on the sterile environment of the lab, so go out and change them."

Xia Chujian subconsciously took a step back and stood outside the door of the laboratory.

And the inside of the door was shrouded in that white light, and the people I saw just now, the experimental instruments, were no longer visible.

Xia Chujian looked around, and sure enough, he saw a white coat hanging on the wall at the entrance, which looked exactly the same as the clothes those people were wearing just now.

And on the walls above those white coats, there are nameplates with names written on them, and under the names, there are also photos.

This is the second bigger chapter, with an October monthly pass of 4200+!

Today, I still want a guaranteed monthly pass!

There is a new update after 05:00 in the evening. (#^.^#)
