In the hexagonal glass hall, Yu Zhesen and An He learned about the replacement of the old era and the Iron Dome era from Tang Suguang's mouth.
The period of history described by Tang Suguang is quite different from what is preached in textbooks.
The earth is on the verge of destruction due to high-intensity war...The Iron Dome Project and Starship Immigration...Pioneering zones, cities and human rejuvenation.
However, what Tang Suguang mentioned next made them feel like they were listening to a book from heaven.
"The world in the Iron Dome Age is a parallel space created out of thin air by our generation using the essence of science and technology."
"Everything in this space is shaped in proportion to the original world. Starzhou City was originally a super aircraft that could shuttle between two spaces."
The chain hanging the light ball creaked, and the soup in the glass ball rose slowly along with the light.
He made a space, activated the projection in the hall, and projected two models of parallel world earths on the heads of Yu Zhesen and An He.
"Our world is fictitious? Doesn't this... prove that the purpose of the Returned Sect is correct?" An He looked shocked, and Tang Suguang's words made her feel like her faith had collapsed.
Tang Suguang corrected: "The Iron Dome world is not fictitious, and the parallel space is also made of real matter."
Yu Zhesen asked: "But how is it possible to create a world out of thin air?"
"It relies on the application of light particles." Tang Suguang explained, "You must have been exposed to the materialization of light particles, right?"
"When this world was on the verge of destruction, a huge ocean of light particles was born." Tang Suguang paused and added: "It's not the kind of ocean you understand, it's the level of the cosmic sea of stars."
"It is precisely with such a huge volume of light particles that we can reproduce the world."
"Stop, stop." Yu Zhesen stopped him and continued, "These are too difficult for us to understand. You said before that there were many visitors today, so someone must have been here before us, right?"
The glass ball of light hanging by a chain moved in front of Yu Zhesen: "You are referring to the man named Jin Guozheng, right?"
When Yu Zhesen heard him accurately say Jin Guozheng's name, he asked warily: "What is your relationship with him?"
"We have no relationship." Tang Suguang replied, "I am a dead soul imprisoned in the center of this research facility. He is a foreign visitor who came here on his own strength, that's all." An He asked: "Is this a research facility?"
"The birthplace of the Iron Dome Project, it was called the 'Tomb of Prometheus' back then." Tang Suguang's tone carried a sense of distant memories, "The starships were launched from here, carrying the surviving humans to break through space.
Facing the world of Iron Dome."
Yu Zhesen and An He said in unison: "Then this is the original earth?"
"Not bad." Tang Suguang sighed, "You should have seen those polluted crystal clusters, right?"
"Those are the scars of the stupid wars of the past."
"The crazy growth of crystal clusters has polluted the entire world, and we have no way to remove it."
Yu Zhesen was shocked and said: "The texture of those crystals is very similar to the Oath Crystal. Could it be that the source is NU2 energy..."
Tang Suguang immediately responded: "You are right. The Oath Crystal you are talking about is the pendant worn on the chest of this beautiful lady, right? It is indeed the same source as the crystal clusters that pollute the world."
An He's face turned pale: "The Oath Crystal is a by-product discovered when mining NU2 veins on the seabed. Doesn't this mean that our world may also..."
"No, you don't have to worry about this." Tang Suguang explained softly, "In order to prevent the same tragedy from happening, the Iron Dome Project has changed the properties of the NU2 mineral when recreating the parallel space."
"The pendant on your chest does not glow, which means it is safe and will not grow indefinitely like the crystal cluster pollution in this world."
Yu Zhesen and An He looked at each other happily, and they could read in each other's eyes their admiration for the great achievements of the Iron Dome scientists.
"Back to the subject, we are here to find Jin Guozheng." Yu Zhesen said to Tang Suguang, "If you are not allies with him, then I hope you can tell us where to find him."
"The Kingdom of Jin is in the 'Gangyuan Prison' hundreds of meters deep below this hall." Tang Suguang replied quickly.
Before Yu Zhesen could ask questions, he added and explained: "That was once used to hold prisoners who were not allowed to go to the Iron Dome World, but it is now vacant."
An He asked cautiously: "Are there any security measures there?"
"There are automated bionic mechanical guards and patrol drones. I used to be able to control them through the hub, but now I have lost contact with them."
Tang Suguang said helplessly: "After Jin Guozheng came here, he made certain improvements to the facilities. I think the automated guard team in Gangyuan Prison has been destroyed or controlled by him."
"Xiao Sen, it seems that a fierce battle is inevitable before meeting Jin Guozheng." An He clenched the black knife.
Yu Zhesen nodded and asked Tang Suguang: "Since you control the center here, can you show us the structural map of the entire facility?"
"No problem." Tang Suguang immediately used a projection to show them the structural diagram of the entire institute.
He said: "Using the elevator in front of the console, you can directly reach the entrance of Gangyuan Prison."
Yu Zhesen's eyes carefully scanned the projected structural diagram, and after a moment he said to An He: "Let's go, I have memorized the way here."
"With all due respect, you don't seem to have been electronically transformed."
Tang Suguang asked Yu Zhesen a question.
"Did you really memorize the roads in this huge facility in such a short time?"
Yu Zhesen smiled: "I have a special talent."
"Then can you tell me what the room number is at the end of the D-34 branch?"
"The number is 1242, followed by an asterisk. I don't know what that means."
Tang Suguang was amazed, and then explained: "That is the ninth guard room of this research institute, and it is also the only one still under my control."
"If you want to fight Jin Guozheng, I suggest you go to Room 1242 to get some weapons first."
An He glanced at Yu Zhesen in surprise: "Great! This way the chance of winning is much higher."
Yu Zhesen nodded. Although he himself does not really need to be armed. The Platinum Age
/p>
"Thank you for your guidance." Yu Zhesen thanked Tang Suguang.
"Wish you good luck."
To go to Room 1242, where the ninth guardroom is located, you still need to start from the elevator round platform in the lobby. Yu Zhesen and An He stood hand in hand at the operation table and waited for the round platform to rise.
"By the way, Professor Tang, why do you stay here? Is your body dormant in a certain life capsule in this institute?"
While waiting, An He asked Tang Suguang.
"My body no longer exists." Tang Suguang replied, "As you can see, the flame in this glass ball is my soul."
"Spirit...soul?"
"It would be easier to understand if I put it this way. Specifically, my consciousness has left my body and continues to exist on the control center of this research institute."
Yu Zhesen asked: "Why is this happening?"
"Because the Iron Dome project was not sure whether it would succeed at first, someone needs to stay and guard this research institute to make corrections to the Iron Dome world at any time."
"When the Iron Dome World and the revival plan are successfully carried out, the responsibilities of this institute will end."
Yu Zhesen wanted to ask something else, but the lifting platform had already floated up in front of him and An He.
The two of them climbed onto the lift platform hand in hand and said goodbye to Tang Suguang.
As the lift platform slowly sank, they officially penetrated deep into the interior of the research institute.
"Xiao Sen." An He squeezed Yu Zhesen's hand.
"Don't worry," Yu Zhesen gently squeezed her slightly sweaty palms, "Now that we have figured out where this place is, there is nothing to be afraid of."
"Actually, I'm a little excited now." An He pursed his lips and smiled at him.
"This trip is not in vain, is it?"
"Yeah."
"Now we have a legendary experience that we can praise to our children." Yu Zhesen said proudly with his head held high.
"Ahem... Be serious, this is the birthplace of the great renaissance of human civilization." An He nudged him with his elbow, "We should be in the mood of pilgrimage."
"Before you go on a pilgrimage, knock that bastard Jin Guozheng to the ground and beat him." Yu Zhesen clenched his fist, "What he did here is barbaric and blasphemous."
