Perhaps before this, this journey was happy for Fuyin, but now Reina is sure that she is in pain. Reina saw her former self from her face, the sad and overwhelmed one.
Own.
Not everyone can understand the feeling of worldview collapse when you discover that the person you admire is not as good as you imagined.
Fuyin was silent for a long time. Her mood was very low. The team seemed to have lost its voice. It was quiet all the way. Werewolf Bray kept complaining about Fuyin's noisiness, but obviously, he didn't like this silence either.
They found the place where the ancient dwarves held a meeting. The highest floor was the residence of the dwarf king. He was above everything else. This was the top of the city and they could see the whole city.
It is obvious that the hierarchy of dwarves is similar to that of humans. From top to bottom in the pyramid, there are kings, royal families, nobles, rich people or landowners, and finally civilians or slaves.
The top floor is a huge conference room, at least that's what Fuyin said. When a king needs to deal with a lot of things, it is impossible for one person to handle the affairs of a country, not even a town.
, no one can.
"This is where the country is governed. The king and his trusted ministers will make many decisions here. This should be true."
Fuyin said calmly that she no longer had the passion to discover history, and others understood.
"What a big table."
Reina said in amazement, it was a circular table with a strange thing like a volcano in the middle.
"Yes, it can probably seat hundreds of people."
Fuyin responded that before doing this, she would be happy to introduce the story and history of this table, or she would not know anything about it and would talk about other things. Anyway, once she has the opportunity to tell the history, she will not let it go.
"I really don't know what a hundred people can discuss. There is only one decision-maker. Can the king's words be rejected?"
The werewolf questioned.
"Listening to other people's opinions will never hurt you."
Fuyin said calmly, but she did not deny what the werewolf said.
She walked along the table. The height of the table would be a little low for other people, but it was just right for Fuyin. She put her hand on it and brushed off a layer of dust. The slightly raised area on the ground was probably
They were the remains of the chairs. They could not withstand the corrosion of time, but the table was completely preserved. She imagined the scene of the ancient dwarves discussing here. The circular table was definitely not an ordinary table, it definitely had something special about it.
"crown!"
Fuyin turned around and saw that Reina was holding a dusty crown in her hand. She blew it and then coughed due to the splash of dust.
Suddenly, a strange light flashed from the crown, and they heard banging sounds coming from under their feet, behind them, and above their heads. They felt something was wrong, so they turned around and looked around cautiously.
"What's wrong? Another agency?"
Werewolves hate traps, just like beasts hate traps. They would rather die under the enemy's claws or spears than under a trap.
The room suddenly became brighter. There were also windows here. The banging sound was the sound of the iron curtains. They were raised like eyelids. The light from outside shone into the room, and slanting light paths could be seen.
"Welcome back, His Majesty the King, during your 14673473 hours of rest, the following events occurred: the Galaxy Project failed, the spacecraft was attacked by unknown energy, and zero survivors were detected..."
A strange female voice came. It seemed to be close at hand, but I didn't know where it was. The voice was coming from all directions, and it was very strange.
"Who is speaking?"
The werewolf showed its claws and kept looking around.
"That door??"
Reina was confused and said that she didn't sense anyone else around her. Fuyin frowned and suddenly shushed and said: "Quiet."
Everyone fell silent, and she listened carefully to the hoarse voice.
"There is currently a serious population crisis. The total population of Jingshi City is zero, including zero births and zero deaths in a single day..."
The cold voice of the past sounded, and it knew what happened in the past! Fuyin's heart was excited again. The truth was right in front of her. This memory, this device that records everything, recorded the past when the dwarves disappeared.
"Stop! Tell me what happened 14673473 hours ago."
Fuyin said loudly, and the voice suddenly stopped. Suddenly, light appeared on the table and started to rotate. Suddenly, the crater-like device in the center opened, and a spherical machine slowly rose.
"Mr. Ball?"
Reina opened her eyes wide and subconsciously made a sound. Others looked at her.
No, it's not Mr. Ball, it's just familiar. The spherical device has a smooth surface, and suddenly patterns similar to facial features appear on the surface.
"It's okay, I admitted my mistake."
Reina whispered, and the others returned their gaze to the spherical device.
I saw it emitting a 360-degree light in all directions, and everyone present was illuminated. Fuyin found that the bracelet on his wrist flashed in response.
"Welcome, Your Excellency Isabella, Jingshi City welcomes you."
Hearing this, Fuyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Answer my question."
"Preparing for you."
The memory's questions and answers are very smooth, as if it is a living creature. The ancient dwarves already had superb skills, and even modern humans and dwarves cannot achieve this technology.
After the sound ended, the ball memory suddenly changed color and made a whining sound. The ring's tabletop glowed, and a strange and three-dimensional scene appeared in front of everyone.
It was not a single scene, there were scenes inside the city and scenes outside the city, both of which were very unfamiliar.
The deserted Jingshi City looked like more than a thousand years ago! All kinds of dwarves came to the square, city walls, doorways, rooftops and high platforms, watching something. Which huge square was packed to the brim, and they looked at the huge
's screen.
"That's it!? Could it be that it was the thing we dug up?"
The werewolf pointed at the picture in the center and said.
Everyone looked and found that the two pillars looked familiar. The difference was that they were on a huge metal platform, and there was also a weird giant machine. The machine looked like an oval cup upside down on the ground.
You can see ant-like dwarfs flying around, and several people with fish tanks on their heads and bulky clothes standing on a step, floating slowly, and waving towards the screen.
The scene was extremely lively, and they were obviously celebrating something, maybe some festival.
But Fuyin didn't know what festival was held on that day.
"Yes! It's that dress!"
Fuyin's eyes widened.
There was no sound in the picture, and the room was very quiet. Everyone opened their eyes wide, watching the video from more than a thousand years ago. They all knew the result, but they still felt nervous.
Especially Fuyin, she held her fists in her hands and looked at the center of the screen.
"They went in. Is this some kind of terrible weapon?"
"Probably not."
Fuyin replied that she didn't know, but she just felt that dwarves did not need such huge and wasteful weapons. What did the ancient dwarves want to do? Why were these things not recorded in history?
However, at this moment, the weird giant machine suddenly vibrated, and a large amount of flames spurted out from underneath. The surrounding sand and dust instantly flew into the air, rising at least fifty or sixty meters high.
The picture became blurry, but there was a bright spot where they could see clearly.
"sun!"
Yes, it was the sun. Just when the giant machine spewed out terrifying flames, the sun in the sky suddenly became extremely bright. In an instant, the entire screen and other images were swallowed up by this light.
The dazzling light made everyone in the room cover their eyes.
When they opened their eyes and looked at the screen, they were horrified to find that all the people inside had disappeared. One of the two huge pillars was broken. Although the other one was still strong, its surface was already burned red, and the huge machine
, it becomes fragments.
Where are people?
Fuyin's eyes widened. When she was looking for traces of others, she saw that in the square she had been to, there were only clothes covering the ground and countless rings reflecting light.
Disappeared? Everyone disappeared? What happened?
Everyone held their breath, Fuyin half-opened his mouth and murmured: "Heaven...heaven's punishment..."
