Chapter 42: Mountains of Madness (Historical Text) III

Remains of the Alki Mountains.

The early archaeological surveys and exploration of the Celestial Kingdom were carried out in the Yurioli region, a valley in the Alki Mountains in the middle of the mountain range.

At this moment, Xia Xiu, led by Ioni, had come to the depths of the exploration well near the Yurioli area, and they dived 1,343 meters underground through the steel structure of the wellhead, which is the place where the stone tablet was unearthed and where Dr. William and the expedition team were investigating.

Tick~

Tick~

The interior of the exploration well appears dark and damp.

The yellow work lights cast a dim glow, the sound of dripping water on the walls of the exploration shaft echoed, and the smell of earth and stone filled the air, giving the impression of going deep underground.

Xia Xiu silently followed Ioni's side, geologists and investigators stood around the wellhead, intently studying the various formations on the wall of the well, many members of the Heavenly Kingdom nearby would salute him when they saw him, and he nodded at them with a warm smile, his golden eyes looked around carefully.

On one side of the exploration well, there is a huge stone monument, about ten meters high.

The surface of the stele is ancient and rough, and the weathering and erosion over time have made it mottled.

However, a closer look reveals that the stele is carved with ancient symbols and texts that seem to represent some kind of account of an ancient civilization.

An old man in his early fifties, with a vicissitudes of life and a wrinkled forehead, stood under the stele, his hair had begun to turn white, but it was still thick and slightly wavy. Wears a pair of heavy glasses with dust on the lenses. He was wearing gray overalls, which were already stained with mud and rock fragments, and his boots were also stained with mud.

The old man was excitedly talking loudly to the other staff around him, Xia Xiu walked forward silently, blending into the crowd like a melon-eating crowd, he had bypassed a large number of nursing equipment, and stroked the stone tablet with his hand, feeling the fluctuations coming from above.

Ioni, who followed on the side, stared at the blonde young man with wide eyes and a look of surprise on his face, who quietly blended into the most difficult research group like a drop of water into the sea, and touched the stone tablet that they regarded as a treasure in front of everyone.

As if unaware of the blonde youth, everyone continued their conversation.

"Yes, that's it, there's a record of it in the library [of Miskatonic University], and the Necronomicon written by the "mad poet of the desert" and the "mad crowner" with all the spirituality and intellect of the mad crowner contains a few words about this amorphous monster: an amorphous protoplasmic creature that is one of the most terrifying beings in the starry sky, looking like a giant amoeba made of tar, with glowing eyes on its surface.

The amorphous monsters must still be alive, they must be somewhere in the inner world, and we can know their essence by analyzing the text on the stone tablet.

Please, Fellows of Heaven, you have the Almighty, you have the Wall of Sighs, you have Eden!!

So, please dissect the text, only you can avoid the huge Mimu pollution and [mythological factor] above, and only you are not afraid of the malicious gaze of the starry sky.

Only you can parse the text, and as long as you parse the text, I swear in the name of the Doctor of Geology [of Miskatonic University] that I can dedicate all my knowledge to you!! ”

Dr. William pleaded feverishly to the senior researcher in the nearby [Central Containment Chamber].

The senior researcher was a slightly bald middle-aged man, who was helplessly stroking his slightly Mediterranean-sized head at the moment, and replied helplessly:

"Eden has an order, all matters and advancements about the ruins must wait until the fourth sword-wielder of the kingdom of heaven arrives before it can continue, we want to parse the text immediately, but the resource note we applied to Eden for it does not give us approval, and we can't do it!

Without genealogical resources, what do we academic angels do to study, and take their heads to study these abominations! We're all academic thaumaturgists, so you can't be considerate of us.

What comes out of our containment chamber are only academic entries, and you let us study the spectrum, study the temporary dipole, study the electron cloud or something, and then you look at my entries are all non-tactical abilities of [nuclear magnetic resonance measurement], [geomagnetic exploration], and [brain activity and data collection], you see that I am the kind of angel who resists the [mythical factor] and tears the mythical monster by hand!

In fact, deciphering the text is not a big job, the problem is the Mimu and [mythological factor] above, please, our heavenly kingdom is different from your secret kingdom, and the lives of angels are also lives! ”

Xu was bald due to overtime, and the more senior researcher Hansa spoke, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more aggrieved he became.

After the establishment of the Honkai Authority, he worked overtime every day, !! every day

"I know you're embarrassed, but don't be embarrassed. You just intercede with Eden first.,Write some small composition.,Let it give you a note.,By the way, let it help you grow.,You know.,What is in front of us now is a huge new discovery that can shake the academic world.,Its discovery can be described as a biological discovery for the civilization supplement series! ”

Unfortunately, Hansea's weeping and bloody speech did not get Dr. William's empathy, and he still stubbornly wanted Hansa to intercede with Eden, and approved the note so that he could continue to let the Heavenly Containment Chamber assist him in advancing his research.

NMD! What do you mean by letting Eden give me hair, do you think I haven't asked and tried, I'm about to go bald for the sixth time, and you dare to mention it!

Hansea's fists hardened, and he felt that he had to use the old tradition of angels to let old man Wilhelm know why the nickname "Barbarian" had endured so long among the countless nicknames of angels.

Seeing this, Ioni, who had been eating melons with Xia Xiu with relish, immediately rushed up and pressed the Hanseatic researcher Gao Yang's right fist.

"Uncle Hanseatic, calm down, calm down. His Excellency Abraham is here, he has already dealt with the clouds outside, and now he has begun to officially follow up on the investigation of the ruins, with His Excellency Abraham's ability, presumably your investigation here can be quickly completed, and then you will apply for a leave of absence through the vacation list. You have to be calm, if you are impulsive now, the above will give you a fake note, and if you work overtime, your hair will really be bad. ”

Of course, she knew that Hanseatic wouldn't really do anything to William, but as [the executive officer], she had to come out and control the scene, these two masters quarreled every day, if they didn't stop the two of them now, it was estimated that they would continue to quarrel when they returned to the camp later.

She had been following the Fourth Sword Bearer of Heaven to assist in completing the preliminary investigation of the [Northern Crown] on the outskirts of the mountain range for the past few days, and she finally completed her work today and was able to return to the camp, she didn't want to continue to listen to the two uncles in front of her continue to argue.

"Your Excellency Abraham? Where are the people? ”

"The Fourth Sword Bearer in Heaven! Where is he? ”

Hansa and William both looked at Ioni who came out to persuade him with inexplicable expressions at the moment, and then looked around anxiously.

"Well, you two, I'm here."

A full voice sounded behind the two of them, silky and magnetic, with very clear and standard articulations for each syllable.

Hanseatic and Wilhelm couldn't help but look back, and then they saw a handsome young man with blond hair and golden eyes standing at the bottom of the stone tablet, and he was waving to them with a warm smile.

"When did you get here!?" Dr. William looked at the blonde youth with a look of disgust.

And Hanseatic began to breathe a sigh of relief in his heart after seeing the blonde young man, and the first social animal in the kingdom of heaven that is currently recognized internally has finally arrived.

"I feel like you're thinking about something very rude."

Xia Xiu's eyes were keenly looking at Hansa, who was also an overtime dog, and he smelled a familiar smell on the other partyβ€”the pleasant smell of a social animal holding his own class.

"No, no, I've heard that you just finished solving the [Monte Carlo incident] and rushed over without stopping, and you had a meeting in the meantime, then you dealt with the landing of the deep divers, and then you were busy with the investigation and containment work of [the Northern Crown]. I'm ashamed to say that you've only been in Corsica for so many days and I'm only officially meeting you now. ”

Hanseatic immediately changed the subject, and slightly restrained his own face that was about to laugh.

No, he can't laugh yet, he's his own boss, and if he knows that he's thinking about vacation now, it will definitely stimulate his social animal's heart.

"Yes." Xia Xiu smiled and didn't say anything more.

"You... Oh, no, you're the great Triple Crown and the fourth sword-wielder in Heaven, and I'm finally seeing you." Dr. William rubbed his hands together and approached the blonde youth in front of him with an enthusiastic expression.

"You're Dr. William, the leader of the polar research team at Miskatonic University, hello, it's a pleasure to meet you." Xia Xiu greeted Dr. William warmly.

The University of U-M is one of the few thaumaturgical comprehensive universities that can make an artistic atmosphere at the level of "death", compared with the honest thaumaturgical and scientific and technological academic comprehensive universities like the Deer Academy, the University of U-M pays more attention to the study of the indescribable, and the thaumaturgists who graduated from the University of U-M are all talents, and their graduate mortality rate has always been the first among all thaumaturgical comprehensive universities.

At the same time, they are also one of the few thaumaturgical universities that can maintain a long-term relationship with the Kingdom of Heaven.

If there are no accidents, in Xia Xiu's lengthy itinerary.

In the future of the Social Investigation Tour of the New World City of the Addison Federation, the Fourth Sword Bearer of the Heavenly Kingdom will enter Miskatonik University as an [investigator] for a deeper exchange of learning, and he will also be responsible for negotiating with them about sharing the data of the U-U Genealogy Library.

The Kingdom of Heaven needs the latest information about the Starry Sky Dreadsome from the libraries and think tanks where they died.

"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you, only under your leadership can we advance the expedition to the Kalki Mountains, without you, we are like blind people without the sun, we can't move an inch. I've heard of your style of doing things, you have always been vigorous and don't like to drag mud and water, so I think we should start the investigation of the ruins immediately, and I will definitely cooperate with the Kingdom of Heaven and you to contribute to the great cause of saving mankind. ”

William continued to say polite words to Xia Xiu enthusiastically, Xia Xiu naturally knew that this old man was urging him to work quickly, so he didn't say anything, but said to him with a straightforward smile:

"I've already parsed the text, if you want to read it, I'll pass it on to you directly."

"What?"

Dr. William was stunned, and then he saw the fourth sword-wielder in the kingdom of heaven stretch out his right hand and snap his fingers.

Smack-

"Don Quixote Initiationβ€”"

[Concrete Materialization Process, Thinking Concrete!] ]

Bang!

Huge memories began to flood into the mind of Dr. William, who was caught off guard.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

In the abyss of time, far before the stars, [the Ancient] awakens in the silent void.

They are the first chapter of the epic of the universe, the forerunners of the endless epoch of the universe. From the depths of the universe, with wisdom and consciousness, they traveled through the sea of stars to a blue-green planet - Terra.

On this lonely planet, the [Ancients] laid their empire beneath the vast ocean, and palaces and towers rose from the bottom of the sea, bathed in the glimmer of the deep. Their strength and knowledge make every corner of the sea come alive. They created complex rituals and traditions, as well as a language that transcended all living beings as a mother tongue, whose notes were the harmony of the universe and whose melody was the vibration of the stars.

However, it is not just the sea, the eyes of the [ancients] are also looking through the sea, eager to explore every corner of the planet. They carved majestic mountains out of stone and ice, filled with marvelous gardens and forests, and gave life to life on land.

Their empire was so glorious that even the stars in the night sky were eclipsed.

In the service of their great empire, the [Ancients] used their extraordinary skill to create the [Shoggoths], shapeless, subservient creatures. [Shogoth] worked according to the will of the Ancients, helping them build great buildings one after another, until their footprints spread across the planet.

However, as time passed, the Ancients clashed with other creatures from outer space. The other civilizations in the Sea of Stars are fighting fiercely with the Ancients for dominance of the planet. And the once loyal [Shugoth] also began to rebel, and their rebellion destroyed many of the cities of the Ancients, causing the once glorious empire to begin to decline.

Despite this, the wisdom and strength of the [Ancients] have allowed them to survive on this planet. They went deep into the earth, established an underground kingdom, and waited for the right time to rise again. Their history is an epic that tells the story of how an ancient race went from nothing to nothing, from glory to decline, and then to wait for the light again.

Engraved this historical text in the silence to tell the descendants of the population.
