Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Long Grudge

"This agreement stipulates that all human beings must unconditionally protect the firmament protection system. Any act of interfering with the operation of the firmament system, as well as sabotaging and attempting to destroy the firmament protection system, is a crime against all of humanity. ”

What the chief manager said is really unbelievable, and it is far beyond the understanding and cognition of normal people. It's impossible for anyone to take it quickly.

Wang Xiaotian thought for a long time and asked, "I heard that the New Era Big Bang destroyed all the electronic equipment, why can the Firmament Protection System still work, and has it not been impacted by the Big Bang?"

"Actually, in the middle of the old era world war, there was already an energy crisis in all countries. Therefore, when building the dome protection system, countries with technical strength have chosen energy supply systems that do not rely on traditional energy sources. ”

Wang Xiaotian was stunned, "Traditional energy?"

"Yes. Electricity, nuclear, coal, oil, and even solar energy. None of this energy is used by the Firmament Protection System. ”

"And what does it use for energy?"

The chief manager said calmly: "The heat energy of the underground lava." ”

"What?" Wang Xiaotian was surprised, he could put a duck egg in his mouth. The underground lava is dozens of kilometers underground, how can such a deep pit be dug? Not to mention anything else, the energy consumed alone is also astronomical. Wouldn't it be nice to use this energy to directly supply energy to the firmament system?

Grand Pipe: "It's the underground lava you think of." However, instead of going all the way to the lava layer, it is about probing the ground, finding hot springs heated by lava, and then digging a deep well to absorb the heat energy from the hot springs, and then powering the firmament protection system through complex energy conversion. ”

Wang Xiaotian still couldn't understand, shook his head and said, "I can't imagine what this firmament protection system should look like." ”

The chief manager smiled and said, "The firmament system is composed of hundreds of base stations. From the outside, the base station looks like a tower several hundred meters high, with a huge ball at the very top. Within the territory of the Chu State, especially near the border, there will be one such base station every thousand kilometers. ”

Wang Xiaotian frowned, "No, such a tall tower should be very conspicuous." Why didn't I even see one?"

"Base stations are mainly distributed near the border, and there are not many in the hinterland of the country. In addition, the New Era explosion caused secondary disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis that destroyed some of them. ”

"Later, when I practiced the dome protection system, because there was not much threat to the hinterland of the country, I didn't repair those base stations. After so many years, it must have been abandoned. I'm afraid that it will take a lot of effort to find it deliberately. ”

Seeing that the chief manager was so familiar with the firmament protection system, Wang Xiaotian was a little surprised and asked, "How did your hidden world organization know about such a confidential matter?"

The chief steward said solemnly: "We are also part of the human race. Moreover, at the beginning of the new era, we used the technology and equipment of the old era to do a lot for the survival of mankind. ”

"Do you think that without our help, the survivors who are empty-handed could have repaired the damaged firmament protection system so quickly?"

Wang Xiaotian suddenly remembered that in the shelter, Master Hao Zhi once said that those hidden organizations were not hidden from the beginning, but because the Eastern Chu Kingdom and the Xiluo Kingdom successively promulgated the electricity ban law, they became rats that everyone shouted and beaten, and they had to go into hiding.

Wang Xiaotian nodded and said, "What is your relationship with the Purification Sect, and why do the people of the Purification Sect regard you as enemies?"

Wang Xiaotian didn't ask, but as soon as he heard this question, the chief manager immediately exploded, "Don't mention these traitors to mankind! Brainwashed idiots! Shameful robbers! Crazy madmen!"

Wang Xiaotian was taken aback. He didn't expect the chief manager's reaction to be so strong. When Master Obscure mentions explorers, he only says that explorers are very aggressive, act without scruples, and can do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, but their emotions are not so strong.

The chief manager vented, his anger calmed down a little, and said to Wang Xiaotian solemnly: "The people of the Purification Sect are all clever liars, and they can't believe a word they say, even a punctuation mark. ”

Wang Xiaotian was puzzled and said, "What did the Purification Sect do that angered people and resented people?"

"The history of the Purification Sect can be traced back to the end of the Old Era, even earlier than our explorers. Its founder, who must have had a poop in his head, thought that there was sin in everyone, and that only by taking refuge in the god he believed in could he eliminate it. ”

His views are utterly cult-like. Excluded by the mainstream society of the time. The founder was also arrested and imprisoned. However, the founder remained unrepentant and continued to preach in prison. ”

And the doctrine has intensified toward evil. He believed that the sins of unbelievers were too great to be redeemed by asceticism. The final judgment is needed to cleanse these evils once and for all. Then their God will come down and lead the devout believers to build the kingdom of God. ”

"Originally, at the end of the old era, science and technology were extremely developed, and there was almost no market for this kind of cult that preached the destruction of the world. However, unexpectedly, a war broke out that spread across the world. People are in fear all day long. Various cults, including the Purification Sect, have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain and have taken advantage of the opportunity to develop and grow. ”

Wang Xiaotian was already dumbfounded.

The chief manager didn't notice the change in Wang Xiaotian's mood and continued: "However, it is different from other sects that march and demonstrate all day long and make big noises. Instead of making a big deal about it, the Purification Sect went into the shadows, and through various channels, it secretly made friends with political dignitaries, entrepreneurs, scientific researchers, and military officers at all levels from all over the world. ”

"There is evidence that they did this in order to increase the scale of the war in order to achieve their goal of cleansing mankind of its sins once and for all. It is estimated that by the end of the war, a quarter of the armed forces were under the control of the Purificians. ”

"We suspect that the Anno Bang is also inseparable from the Purification Sect. ”

After the chief manager finished speaking, he looked at Wang Xiaotian, but found that his face was red and white for a while, and his eyes were looking straight ahead.

She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

At this moment, Wang Xiaotian's brain has become a mess of porridge.

Because of the information that the chief manager just said, it triggered his memory to run wild.

He suffers from polysoul and has a lot of remnants in his body. Before, when his consciousness was weak, those remnant souls were noisy in his mind.

But this kind of noise just made him unable to concentrate, as if he threw a lot of stones and formed ripples on the surface of a calm lake. It's completely different from the current state of complete boiling.

Later, by chance, he absorbed the power of the old fox man's soul, and his consciousness grew, completely suppressed those remnant souls, and slowly absorbed and fused those remnant souls.

Among these remnants, there are not only fragments of consciousness, but also a large number of fragments of memory. After fusing the remnant soul, these memory fragments, like mud and sand, sank into his subconscious mind and became his sleeping memories. Normally, these memories will slowly fade away.

However, what the chief manager said just now suddenly resonated strongly in his sleeping memories, and a large number of sounds, words, and images, like a volcanic eruption, erupted in an instant, making his brain instantly overloaded.

If Wang Xiaotian is an ordinary person, even if he is an ordinary person who specializes in soul cultivation, such a huge explosion of information and such a strong instantaneous overload, I am afraid that even his brain will be cooked. Even if you don't become an idiot, your brain will be permanently damaged.

Fortunately, Wang Xiaotian's sea of knowledge is broad enough, and his soul power is strong enough. At the critical moment, he made a quick decision and immediately forcibly stopped the memory rampage and quickly released the load on his brain. In this case, he was also silent for a long time before his brain returned to normal.

Wang Xiaotian gasped a few times, and his expression slowly returned to normal. He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine." Well, since you suspect that the Purification Cult has done so many bad things, haven't you taken action? What were you doing at the time?"

The chief manager thought for a moment and said, "I'll answer your second question first." At that time, we were trying to preserve the spark of human civilization. ”

"After the outbreak of all-out war, the founders of the explorers began to worry that the paranoia and excesses of some people would bring disaster to mankind. Therefore, they built a permanent repository far away from human society and where the war was not affected, and stored a copy of the most important scientific and cultural knowledge of human beings, as well as the genetic maps of various species. ”

Moreover, in this permanent repository, in addition to information, they also preserve a huge amount of genetic material from different human races. They call this the last spark of mankind. ”

"To protect the fire from being destroyed. They have built a huge scientific research base on top of the permanent repository. In this base, on the one hand, they research science and technology, seek technological breakthroughs, and realize interstellar travel. On the other hand, they tried their best to find out the truth of the war. ”

Wang Xiaotian was stunned, "The truth of the war?"

The Grand Steward nodded, "That's right. The truth. And, this question also comes back to your first question. ”

"What is the truth?"

"More than a thousand years have passed in the past, and we dare not assert what the specific truth is. However, we believe that the root cause of everything should be related to the big bang that opened a new era. ”

Wang Xiaotian couldn't help but be deflated, do you need to say more about these? The factors that caused the most serious consequences must be the closest to the true answer. However, the big explosion has already taken away all the witnesses, how can we find the truth?

Seeing that Wang Xiaotian was discouraged, the chief manager smiled slightly, and said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but my authority is not enough, and I can't access deeper secrets." If you want to know more about the truth, there's only one way. ”

"What's the solution?"

The chief steward said word by word: "Come with us, the place where the last fire of mankind is buried." ”

Wang Xiaotian was surprised, "Is that the base you just said?"

The Grand Steward nodded.

"Didn't that base be destroyed in the big bang?"

The Grand Steward shook his head, "No." It's fine now. ”

"That's weird. Wang Xiaotian's brows were twisted into a Sichuan character, like an old man, "Didn't you say that the explosion of the new era destroyed all those high-tech equipment? Could it be that there is no high-tech equipment used in that base?"

General Manager: "What is the specific situation, when you arrive at that base, it will be clear." ”

"I haven't agreed to go yet. ”

The chief steward said very seriously: "We have no ill will towards you. I can also guarantee your absolute safety. There is only good for you, nothing to lose. Please come with us. ”

Wang Xiaotian shook his head slowly, "Don't go." ”

The chief steward was stunned, "Why? Don't you want to know your background, your origins, and all your secrets?"
