After a long period of ravages, the golden waste city of Allamanda has lost its former glory. Although the ruins are still splendid, the whole city is covered with ruins. There are few intact buildings in the city, only the most important and extraordinarily strong ones.
Things have been preserved.
The key facility known as the Tower of Ascension is one of them.
This is a pentagonal tower with a base of 100 meters in diameter and a very large scale. Except for the gate at the bottom, there are no doors or windows in the entire spire, and only some functions can be seen on the smooth pale golden exterior wall.
There were unknown protrusions and metal brackets that looked like antennas. Anna relied on the chaotic memories in her mind to lead everyone to the door into the tower. The door had been broken, and the entire door was torn apart in a radial pattern, as if
Something once forced its way out, leaving this huge hole.
Hao Ren walked ahead and was surprised to find that the inside of this doorless and windowless building was very bright: there were many light beams of unknown origin shining directly from above, illuminating the hall on the first floor of the tower as bright as day.
Those light pillars are surrounded by thin dust mist, giving people an inexplicable ethereal feeling: it is not difficult to imagine what kind of sacred place this place was back then.
There is no very complicated structure on the first floor of the tower, it is just a magnificent hall, and the most incredible thing is that there are no pillars to support it. Thinking of the height of the entire tower of hundreds of meters, this unsupported base hall makes people feel
I have to marvel at the tower in the past●↑,ww∽. You can see a circle of golden devices around the hall. These devices are columns about one meter long with an inclined upper surface. They seem to be some kind of operating table. Lily went over and took a photo of it curiously.
This pillar was found to have no reaction at all.
"Don't think about it. Even if these things don't damage this place, there is no energy to start them." Hao Ren crossed his arms and looked around in the hall. Suddenly he saw exquisite patterns painted on the walls in some places, "Hey, come on
Look at this, it looks like a mural left by the Tana people."
Everyone was immediately attracted, and Hao Ren found the starting point of those murals. He looked at the things recorded on them in surprise: they were not earth-shattering scenes, there were no heroes and mythological images, nor were they exquisite and flashy decorative paintings. They depicted
are very simple everyday things.
They depict the entire civilization of the Tana people.
In the first mural, the Tana people live in the coastal beach area. They are an amphibian creature that has gradually moved closer to a pure land life due to certain changes in the marine environment. They wear primitive aquatic plants and animal skin clothing.
Homes were built along the coastline, adapted to drought, land animals were hunted, and civilization's first bonfires were lit.
In the second mural, the Tana people have shed their scales and evolved the structure of their fingers. Their living environment has obviously shifted from tidal flats and swamps to drier plains. They built villages on the grasslands, raised animals in captivity, and planted crops.
and harvest.
They built cities and developed metal tools. They learned how to smelt and make alloys. They understood the power of "electricity" from natural phenomena, and then quickly integrated this power with some of the innate spiritual abilities of their race.
Together. In later murals, it can be seen that the Tana people held ceremonies around a tall metal pillar. Lightning struck the pillars, and another wonderful energy burst out in the Tana people's bodies to resonate with it.
They live, study, and temper their spiritual power. Their innate ability to evolve rapidly allows them to more easily obtain power from nature. They explore their entire planet and build a great information network and global
Energy broadcasting system. They have even developed aerospace technology and some kind of space technology. However, their most powerful thing is still a wonderful skill called "soul power", which is the result of their continuous evolution of their spiritual power talents.
As a result, this wonderful skill is also the only hope for the Tana people to save themselves when a catastrophe strikes.
Yes, the catastrophe. Everything changed in the later period of the mural. Some kind of unspeakable disaster broke out on the planet. The power of the Tana people was not worth mentioning in the face of this disaster. Their magnificent cities made of metal
Uprooted, their war weapons had no effect on the enemy. The murals showed the tragic scene of the Tana people being slaughtered one-sidedly. The war burned across the entire planet, but the enemy's face was always a mass of crazy lines. The people who left these murals
It seems difficult for people to describe what their enemies are in a logical way. He can only continue to use shadows and curves to represent some kind of disaster, and hundreds of millions of Tana people are in those frenzied
are on the verge of extinction under the cover of lines.
In the end, the only survivors all retreated into three cities on the planet. The murals used exaggerated pictures to describe the situation of these three cities: they were cast from metal, shrouded in layers of protective walls and energy shields.
Under the shield, there is boundless chaos and death outside the city. The survivors have been surviving for several years in the city's protective walls, but the city's protective walls are constantly weakened by the erosion of the disaster force, and destruction has become inevitable.
Anna stroked the lines on the murals: "This is the 'Original Natural Disaster'. Mortal power cannot resist it. In the end, the Tana people finally realized a certain pattern of this disaster, and they decided to change their life forms to seek it."
Survive"
Anna said, raising her hand and pointing to the last mural.
The lines on the mural have returned to simplicity, and the majestic and complex material world has been hidden. A Tana man is suspended in the air, and half of his body has turned into a mist-like phantom. This represents the transformation of life forms, and in
At the bottom of the picture, there are messy lines, which represent disaster. This mural seems to depict the scene of the Tana people finally getting rid of the disaster after changing their life forms.
Anna sighed and pieced together the last memory fragments in her mind: "They left these murals to record the course of their civilization, because the Tana people were not sure what would happen after they transformed into spiritual creatures. In order to cope with the worst
situation, they left such simple and straightforward records in many buildings to ensure that other intelligent creatures that visit this planet one day can know what kind of race once lived here."
"So the Tana people turned into angry spirits," Vivian frowned and shook her head, "But the angry spirits they turned into didn't show any logic at all. Not to mention advanced intelligence, they even looked like
Natural phenomena are equally irrational.”
Nangong Sanba scratched his hair: "Then what exactly is the disaster mentioned here?"
Hao Ren took a breath, and a vague guess gradually took shape in his mind. He glanced at the scenes depicted on the last few murals, and suddenly ran quickly to the exit of the hall: "Follow me!"
Everyone followed them without knowing why. Hao Ren led them to a high platform they passed before. Anna couldn't climb such a steep building, so Lily easily carried her on her shoulders. The group climbed up the high platform and came.
We arrived at a position where we could overlook the city's high walls, and the scene outside Allamanda's thick protective wall was clearly visible.
Outside the city is a primitive and desolate land, and it presents an extremely horrifying sight: the ground is covered with huge ravines and huge pits, like a giant face covered with pits, and on one side of the city is a super giant of unprecedented scale
The scale of the crater almost makes people suspect that it has penetrated the core of the planet. And among the countless ravines and pits, the most shocking thing are those tentacles that make people feel numb.
eldest son.
"I knew..." Hao Ren swallowed, "The same thing as Horleta happened here."
Nangong Wuyue swayed, covered her mouth and exclaimed in a low voice: "Oh my god..."
"The situation on this planet is worse than that of Horleta. The eldest son has obviously completed the purge of the second son." Vivian frowned and looked back at Allamanda, which had only ruins left. "The tower
The Na people became extinct."
It was the first time for both Anna and Nangong Sanba to see this terrifying thing. The latter was more or less in a better situation as a demon hunter, but the former staggered twice and almost fainted from fright: She could bear it
She has a double fear, one comes from her human instinct, and the other comes from the remaining memories of angry spirits in her mind. She is now almost half a Tana person. When she saw the tentacles that destroyed the entire civilization, she
Almost fainted.
This is the disaster faced by the Tana people, and the reason why they have to give up their bodies and change their life forms.
