The towers further back in the royal city do not need to pass through the central location and can be reached through surrounding paths.
Also because it does not involve important locations, this road has long been abandoned.
Where there were originally only weeds and ruins, more branch-like plants grew over the place due to the appearance of the Throne of Thorns, but it did not have much impact.
As they walked up the stone stairs at the back of the seven-story inner city, the whole view of the tower came into view.
A series of ancient murals hang on the corridor walls of the tower.
These murals depict scenes from Nordic or ancient Roman mythology.
Such as the banquet of gods, heroic battles and mysterious prophecies. Each painting is meticulous and colorful, as if the historical scroll is slowly unfolding before people's eyes.
Looking at everything in front of her, Shelly said seriously:
"Those things I heard are all left by our ancestors.
It’s really great.”
Su Wenze just smiled calmly:
"The first generation of drifters brought the myths and legends of the real world here.
But Shelly.
You have to understand.
What we are doing is leaving an epic legacy of the past for the future.
Human civilization can only always climb higher. Carve out bases, lay bricks and stones, and build towers leading to the sky.
Time will not decay.
And now we must also surpass them."
The two of them climbed up the stairs.
Although this tower was once built as a decorative building, it was not taken seriously by the subsequent rulers of the Kingdom of Eternal Night and the Sleeping Sect.
Even though there are many cultural relics and works of art in the tower, some of them are even exquisite precious metal decorations.
At the end of the era of civilization's destruction, no one cares about them and they are undoubtedly in ruins.
The top of the tower is a wide platform, where only a huge ancient clock is placed.
This clock is different from ordinary timing tools. Its hands are two huge wings, symbolizing the continuous flight of time.
There are some mysterious runes around the clock. In the dim light of the lantern, they reflect the dull dark brown color of the metal due to rust.
Everything seemed like a long time ago.
Su Wen observed everything silently.
Immediately afterwards.
He cast his sight into the distance.
That is the highest point in the entire inner city of the royal city.
Assuming that he didn't know that Jiang Menghan was already guarding there with a sniper rifle, he probably wouldn't care about it.
but.
he knows.
Mr. Handsome silently pushed up his monocle, and a calm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Then he said gently in the communication frequency band:
"Misha, you should already know how to operate that huge machine.
Gather the remaining low-concentration abyssal pollution to my current location through the Quaternary Orbiter."
She was a little confused.
After all, Su Wen has blocked almost 90% of the black tide pollution in the second door of the ruins.
“It might not be a good thing to have energy tides that have just plateaued change again.
what do you want to do?"
"It's just fuel."
Because Su Wen and Jiang Menghan used a private frequency band to communicate, Misha could not fully understand the two words he said.
But he still followed his instructions exactly.
On top of the tower.
The black windbreaker of the night watchman rose up from the energy flow passing through the entire royal city, making a hunting sound at the same time.
He felt the gathering black tide.
The dark blue system prompts that it is refreshing like crazy.
Although Su Wen is completely unaffected by the whispers and pollution of the abyss.
And Shelly, who had abyss resistance beside him, also felt a little uncomfortable.
She seemed to see countless twisted murmurs, flesh and limbs constantly wrapping around herself, as if she was being pulled into the abyss of darkness.
But the next moment.
A warm pale golden barrier stood in front of her, dispelling all darkness.
Su Wen had expected this a long time ago, but he did not focus on resisting the pollution of the abyss. He just calmly narrated:
"Annihilation is a physics term that refers to the process of complete matter-energy conversion into energy (such as in the form of photons) when matter and its antimatter meet. It is also called mutual destruction, cancellation, and opposition.
wipe out.
This process follows Einstein's mass-energy relationship E=mc2.
In the theory of universal gravitation, energy is contained in the matter itself. Therefore, the mass of matter can distort space-time.
so.
The degraded huge generalized psychic energy will create dissipated 'light' and 'heat', and can also correct the distortion of time or space.
in other words.
What we need to face this time is not cultists, but a macroscopic annihilation experiment of pure energy flow collision."
This is not the first time he has conducted such experiments on the manipulation of huge energy flows.
Su Wen once completed the operation of linking the ruins and the Lost Sea in the deep-sea ruins in the South Pacific with the help of the origin of the Queen of Atlantis, Ireland.
And without the help of any external force.
These macroscopic experiments are definitely not something that a third-order or even a fourth-order extraordinary person can achieve.
so.
In the face of huge Kuroshio pollution.
He also needs a medium:
A fulcrum that can gather positive energy as a balance:
"lighthouse."
now.
A card with the image of Infinite Deep Dream appeared in his hand.
[Journey Card: Past Intellectual Energy Structure—Energy Flow Surge Control (Effect: Control the direction in which a single source of energy flows [inflow] or [outflow])
Duration: Half an hour at Greenwich Mean Time]
[Use limit: 1/1]
[Belongs to the journey deck ‘The Land of the Eternal Night’]
Companion cards are used.
Immediately afterwards, Su Wen began the delicate operation:
[Selected single source energy flow: wide area psychic energy tide]
[Selected direction: convergence inflow]
[Determination Index: Firewood will burn forever]
[Anchor: Lighthouse Dawn]
The fire of Jupiter rising quietly on his right hand was also placed at the central clock position of the tower.
The abyss and the psychic tide collided at the source of the flames.
The annihilation reaction is also triggered instantly.
The folded space left by the Quaternary Civilization begins to gradually appear.
Su Wencai said rationally but loftily:
"If you don't have any clue.
This is probably a miraculous ruin that can only be found with some clues above the fifth level.
I can only say.
The legacy they left behind may be another key to opening this door."
In an instant.
The huge star ring bloomed from the source of ripples in his hand.
The space that should have been folded was also unraveled due to the sudden change of the wave function.
Within the range covered by the light of the lighthouse.
The expanding and burning bright light of God's Eye 'The Other Side: NGC 7293 Spiral Nebula' is also mapped out along with the boundless sea of stars.
The entire forever dark sky is rendered into an endless curtain of stars.
Until now.
Only then did Shelly truly understand what he meant by 'when the stars return':
"Is this a miracle?"
The handsome scholar who analyzed all this shook his head:
"It's science.
If we say that after millions to hundreds of billions of years after the ash and dust clouds were formed by the stars in the last generation, the stars will consume all the hydrogen in their cores, and the nuclear reactions will stop, leaving only a helium core.
So.
For the drifters, the Kingdom of Eternal Night, which is only a few centuries old.
Measured against millions of years.
Probably this place will become an eternally bright beacon.
At least, until the NGC 7293 spiral nebula burns out, castaways will have a beacon that will never lose their way."
He smiled gently,
"No wonder the level of this task is set so high."
