Chapter 394: Cooperation
After passing through Arka, they knew the place.
They found several places where the deadliest thing for the Vastwa people was right now.
One is their need for food, the magic of this place is almost drained, the land is dead silent, and there are no plants to grow at all.
And the only place that can have the ability to grow plants is only a small piece. They were able to use some kind of magical device to condense the remaining plants into a nutrient solution, but apparently the nutrient solution was not enough.
And the production is not large, so the whole race is in a state of malnutrition almost for a long time. And the mana is still being consumed, which is a total amount of mana for Watwat.
Secondly, because their magic power is getting lower and lower, their bodies are getting weaker and weaker, and it also reflects that they have become difficult to even give birth.
And childbirth often comes with great risks, after all, resources are so scarce.
They are still human at heart, so the way they reproduce has not changed.
as well as very important medicines, although they are difficult to have the effects of external diseases in this place.
However, external injuries, internal injuries, and some injuries caused by accidents include childbirth. will cause casualties to their people, because they don't have any medicine to help.
You can only carry it hard, you can live if you live, and if you can't live, you can only die.
And they are also malnourished, and the body's resistance to it has dropped dramatically.
Finally, it is the water source that is not yet enough for them to endanger their lives.
To put it simply, these problems are not really a big problem for Arka.
The reason why it was a big problem before was because they were closed here and outside without any connecting channel, so naturally they had to wait for death.
Because the resources are limited, but they have so many people. Now that they can enter and exit freely, opening the passage between inside and outside, they will naturally be able to bring in external resources.
Whether it is food, drink or medicine, it is no longer a fatal problem.
At this time, Arka and the others came to a museum-like building, and the treasures that the Vastwa people once owned were placed in the building as an exhibition.
Not even protective measures were taken.
Arka blinked at the treasures in front of him.
To tell the truth, he looked at the pain of these treasures, and it was the first time he had seen the energy in the treasures sucked clean.
How is this done? It's outrageous.
"Can I get started?" Arka asked, looking at the shield-like treasure in front of him.
Looking at the above introduction, this should be a treasure that represents summer.
Afil nodded: "Of course, they don't work anymore. ”
Arka picked up his shield and looked at it carefully.
Above the shield is a very obvious sun relief, and the overall color of the shield is probably copper.
Other than that, there's nothing special.
A little bit of magic poured out of his hand and poured into the treasure.
And the treasure did not begin to detect whether it was suitable or react through the magic instilled by the Arka as before.
Instead, he directly sucked Alka's magic into it, and didn't even give Arka a chance to react, just like a hungry ghost who had been hungry for a long time.
As long as you dare to put a little magic on this treasure, he will dare to eat up the magic power you release.
Arka hurriedly took his hand away and cut off his magic.
The two people next to him showed envious eyes.
For them, magic is so precious.
Xia Daiti smiled: "I think you should not envy magic now, but should consider the impact of too much magic on you. ”
Hearing this, Afil smiled: "yes, I never thought that we would actually consider such a problem. ”
"What's going on out there?"
There are a total of seven treasures in front of him.
Every treasure was drained of magic just as Labert had said.
It's true that there's nothing left.
"I can't imagine how they managed to drain all the magic of the treasure." Simon shook his head and said.
This is really an unimaginable thing for them.
Because for them, the treasure can really be described as something of infinite energy.
It's just that the infinite energy in the treasure may not be willing to be used.
It's more about the energy of the treasure plus the convergence of one's own magic power, and together to mobilize the magic power of the outside world to produce various effects.
"It may be because the magic power of this space is limited, and the infinite magic power of the treasure itself is because they themselves are connected to the world, and the magic of the natural world will naturally flow into the interior of the treasure."
Lucilia said as she sat on Alka's shoulder.
Hearing their words, Afel sighed and said, "If we had understood the preciousness of magic from the beginning, we would not have reached this point now. ”
With that, he led them a little inside, and here they saw a lot of broken armor and a variety of weapons and mechanical structures.
"This is a war memorial, even if it is the same race, even in this small world, there is still war. Mutual wars between the same kind. ”
It was inevitable, and Arka nodded in understanding.
Although the Vastwa people are not quite the same as them, they are essentially changed from people.
As human beings, don't they still know the root of the inferiority of human nature?
War is a certainty.
Not to mention in times of scarce resources.
The more you have, the less others will have.
After taking a few more steps inside, Afil looked at the exhibits in front of him and said, "At first, when we didn't realize that magic was limited, we were still brilliant and still maintained the life we once had.
Even spent countless magic power trying to break through this piece of world and leave here, but the subsequent attempts ruthlessly told us that this is impossible, but the magic consumed cannot be recovered.
Even if they know it's limited, they don't think about it.
It wasn't until more than 10,000 years ago that we finally faced a possible magic crisis. But even at that time, the upper nobles were also squandering their magic power.
Those hidden eyes, those researchers are still squandering their research, not thinking about anything else. ”
Alka looked at the records above, and a lot of research, which seemed useless at the time and now.
Just satisfy your curiosity with limited resources.
"Until the magic of nature is completely used by us, the earth begins to die, and all kinds of magical structures and buildings begin to collapse.
That's when we finally realized what we had to do. But there are still countless people who have a fluke attitude. ”
Speaking of which, both of them are very helpless, no matter how you look at this history, it makes them feel uncomfortable now.
"As the mana is drained clean, the ground can no longer be easily planted, and the source of food gradually decreases until it disappears.
At that time, all of our sources of mana became these artifacts and all sorts of things like that. ”
"The Great Elder, on the other hand, was far-sighted enough, and he desperately managed to keep the last artifact alive and functioning until now.
So that we don't have to worry about water now, otherwise we might have perished a hundred or two hundred years ago. Afil said.
In other words, they should still have an artifact in operation.
Connect some more magic to that artifact to generate a water source.
"What are these exhibits?" Simon asked, looking at the pile of paper materials next to him.
"That's, that's the research materials of many ancestors."
Hearing this, Lucilia urged Arka to hurry over, and then began to decipher the information.
The more I read it, the more the light in my eyes was about to flicker.
Simon, who had also taught himself some languages before, also had a rough idea of what was written in these materials from the scattered fonts.
The whole person began to tremble with excitement.
"Hey, you two calm down." Xia Daiti hurriedly said.
Both of them seem to be going crazy.
Lucilia jumped directly onto Xia Daiti's shoulder, hugged her face and said, "Do you know what's up there?" ”
"What's there?"
"I've seen the study of the soul and the body, and it seems to work!" Her voice was even starting to tremble with excitement.
Hearing this, the two of them instantly understood the meaning.
Simon also said: "I saw the materials from the previous spatial research, how to expand the space of the room, and how to construct the spatial mezzanine. ”
Seeing that Simon was about to take it anymore, Arka immediately grabbed him, and then forcibly dragged him out of the museum.
Now is not the time.
Affel and Labraton looked at each other, and both saw the meaning in their eyes.
At the same time, the two seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
In fact, the artifact part was deliberately brought over by them before, Arka and others.
According to Raphael's research, artifacts should still be a relatively valuable thing in the outside world.
However, the surprise was that several people behaved very normally, and they were not very excited, but only revealed some kind of interested expressions.
If they are just interested, it is not enough for them to have enough exchanges and negotiations with Arka and others.
This is about their entire race, and without knowing Arka and the others, they cannot pin their lives on their goodness.
Instead, you need to have enough chips.
They hope to be able to come up with chips that interest them so much in order to be able to trade for the survival of the group.
Or even a continuation after that.
You must know that the one they have recorded the most is actually the heart of Vastva, which has been mastered by Arka.
Knowing that Arka has a good grasp of them, he can easily kill them.
They have to show enough value to do so.
And now I didn't expect those materials to have such capabilities.
And these materials have been studied by their ethnic group from generation to generation, and they still have this talent.
It seems like there's no better leverage than that.
"Simon, calm down, the Vastwas need us, and we need their wisdom and the results of those studies.
So there's no need to rush these things, can you, and I'll just let you study them with them when the time comes. ”
Arka said as he said next to him, finally calming Simon, who was not very calm.
"Even now, they still haven't given up their research, but they have shifted their focus to how to continue the survival of their people." Lucilia sat down on Shadetti's shoulder and said.
She saw some relatively recent research.
Xia Daiti looked at Simon and Lucilia and said with a smile: "Then the performance of the two of you should be enough to reassure them." ”
Several people laughed, and followed Afel and Laberter back to the tower.
And the Great Elder and the others inside should have finished talking during the time they left.
Alka sat back in his seat.
"Alka, do you have any solutions?" The Great Elder said.
"The predicament you're facing now isn't a difficult problem for us to solve, is it.
Although it is difficult for you to survive in the outside world due to your current physical condition, the artifact that can control this space has been mastered by me.
Nature can open the door to the inside and outside, and I can provide you with the supplies you lack. ”
Arka said, blinking one of her eyes, and the pupils inside turned crystal-shaped.
With a slight stroke, a spatial crack appeared next to him that led to the outside.
The space that can see the crack leads to the dream realm.
Arka switched at random, and a slight sea breeze blew in.
The sea breeze was also wrapped in magic, and when the sea breeze came in for a short while, Arka immediately closed the spatial rift.
The magic in the whole room rose slightly.
But the sea breeze just now was really blowing on them.
The Great Elder in front of them had even begun to cough, and even the slightly high concentration of magic power from the eldest of them seemed to make him a little uncomfortable.
The people around them also scratched their bare skin a little uncomfortably.
At least not to the point of allergies, though.
After coughing a few times, the Great Elder was obviously slightly better.
Reality also proved to them that the magic outside was definitely not suitable for their survival, and even the magic carried by the slight sea breeze that blew in made them a little uncomfortable, let alone completely exposed to that kind of environment.
"Do we have to stay in this place for the rest of our lives?" One woman said with some despair.
"No, there should be another way." Arka shook his head and said.
This sentence attracted the attention of everyone present.
"You are an outside race yourself, and you are the more powerful one. Although staying in this kind of place for so long, the body begins to adapt because the magic gradually wears off.
But the real demonless I have heard is only a few thousand years, and a few thousand years will not completely change your body structure, you just need a period of time. ”
And when they get used to it, they can be enlightened and awakened through treasures.
After awakening and becoming touchers, they will naturally be able to survive outside. The offspring born at such a time have grown up outside since childhood, and they are naturally able to adapt to the outside environment.
It's just that their current generation will take time to get used to.
"Really?"
"Just give it a try, could there be anything worse than that? And you Vastwa people should be pretty good at figuring things out, aren't you? ”
The Great Elder nodded.
Then he looked at Arka and said, "I am very grateful for your help, and we must reciprocate your help."
As I said before, the Vastwa people will be your closest friends.
Our knowledge, our remaining strength, our history can be shared with you. ”
Hearing this, Arka smiled, stood up and said, "So happy cooperation, I believe we will do our best to help you." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.
Apparently the Vasteva did not have such etiquette, but the Grand Elder reached out his hand and shook it with him.
"Now we're friends."
……
Soon Arka returned outside.
The three of them stayed inside and began to communicate with the Vastwa inside.
Chardeti needed to keep a count of their numbers and supplies, and the first thing Lucilia and Simon did was to communicate with some of their scholars and start looking at all sorts of literature.
All kinds of research over the past 10,000 years have made them stop talking about it, and they don't even want to move their feet.
"Finally out? What's going on inside? How did it take so long? Jason asked, standing on the deck and looking at Alka.
After Arka mastered the treasure before, he dragged this space debris over and selected some people from the team to follow him in.
But now it's just Jason and Bororo on deck, and the others are already doing their own thing.
"A surprise, a big surprise, this may be the biggest gain of our lives." Arka looked at Jason and said with a smile.
With this, Ulullius couldn't help but lift his head over.
"Did you find any great treasure?"
"That's right." After all, all the wealth of the Vastwa people enclosed in the space was left behind.
Those are also huge amounts of wealth.
Of course, it doesn't belong to them, but some of the wealth is kept by them for the time being. After all, all the supplies they need need these riches to buy.
As Arka came out, Julia and Juan Lu, who was busy in the kitchen, surrounded him.
"Inside the space is the city-state of Vastva, and the rest of the map we saw earlier is all left in it.
Including those living Vastwa. ”
Arka said as she recounted their experiences inside.
