Chapter 648 The First Lunarians
"The first Lunarians?"

Upon hearing this, Yagami responded with an "Oh," and then said, "I know about this."

"Actually, it's the underground plain near the Twin Towers, you remember? The surface there is mostly Kriplin. The sounds they heard all came from the Kriplin layer that encloses the Earth's core."

"There were no original Lunarians at all. They just heard the echo of their own voices on the plains and therefore believed that there was such an existence that could answer all their questions."

"Response?"

Zhou Yi exclaimed in surprise, "That underground plain can talk?"

"It will respond. But it is not a living thing, nor is it life; it is merely a medium for transmission... This may sound a bit complicated, but try this experiment and you'll understand."

The Night God immediately captured a Moon Person from the outside world.

The stone top kept spinning on its own across the plain.

"what's your name?"

Night God looked at the ground and asked through his consciousness.

Zhou Yi saw the Moon People release waves of consciousness.

[...Mario.]

Night God said, "Alright. Mario, where you are now is the place where the original Lunarians slept. Now you can ask it any question, and it will give you an answer."

The stone top's rotation faltered.

Then Yagami's eyes turned black and red: "Pull me along, I'll show you."

Zhou Yi took her hand.

Then he discovered that Mario, the Lunarian, was emitting a wave of consciousness, from which a series of questions popped up.

"Are you truly one of the original Lunarians?"

"Are you still alive?"

"Are we all from you?"

"Why are you here?"

The only question that received a response was the last one.

[To become part of the structure of this star.]

The response manifested as black and red ripples of consciousness, which entered the Lunarian's gyroscope.

Mario continued his persistent questioning.

How was this planet born? What secrets does it hold?

Why do we exist?

This celestial body is a modified sentinel used to observe the galaxy.

……

"Dead Apostle... Just what kind of being is Yagami?"

No response.

How can we become stronger?

No response.

How do we activate this planet?

[A completely new modifier has been installed.]

Zhou Yi roughly understood: "The underground plain, the medium for transmission is... the twin towers?"

"Yes."

Night God said softly, "The material of the Lunarians is the same as this plain. This place is actually part of the Twin Towers. It's the outer shell and support that encloses the Gem Pool, or rather, the entire Gem Structure." "They can have simple, basic conversations with the Twin Towers through this plain. However, these conversations only involve very basic information, which is all within my knowledge."

Zhou Yi asked, puzzled, "Why did the Twin Towers respond?"

"Because of Kripka Rock."

Night God said, "The underground plain is a control switch, and Kripple Rock is the key to this part, so the Lunarians can trigger it. However, it is only a partial function."

"The initial explanation for the Lunarians' existence was that some of them descended into the lunar mantle. The closer they got to this side, the easier it was to trigger the underground plains and receive a response from the Twin Towers."

"This is one of the reasons why they are desperately drilling down. However, to get a clearer answer, they need to become light cores. Currently, their consciousness is too weak, and they can only trigger a very shallow part of the recording... You can think of it as just the instructions on the outer packaging."

Zhou Yi's eyes lit up: "Wait a minute. Doesn't this mean that if we can cultivate Moon People at the Light Core level, they can decipher more information about the Twin Towers from this level of the Plains?"

Night God chuckled: "You're dreaming. The core of this outpost, the Moon, is still the 151 modified humans inside. If the replacement cannot be completed, it cannot truly function."

"It's just that after becoming a light core, the signals I receive are more stable. The information that can be triggered and acquired will not exceed the level that my original body can grasp."

"..."

Zhou Yi felt like he'd been doused with cold water, and his mind calmed down.

As the author of "The Flower," Xiaofu, once said.

These celestial megastructures are designed with great precision and sophistication. They are composed of various cutting-edge technologies and are usually the embodiment of the highest technological capabilities of advanced civilizations, making it virtually impossible for any loopholes to be exploited.

Jupiter is a prime example.

The Celestials, as planet-builders, racked their brains but could not break through. In the end, they took a different approach and adopted a biological deployment strategy, but were intercepted and merged by the Caveman civilization on Jupiter.

To date, Jupiter remains as stable as ever.

Even celestial beings can only serve as batteries and components in megastructures.

Even the Celestials, who specialize in terraforming planets, couldn't find any loopholes or exploit any bugs, so it was even less likely that they could succeed.

The original Lunarians did not exist.

But Zhou Yi also learned that Kripalite is a crucial component of the lunar superstructure, rather than just a special high-radiation rock that it appears to be.

Night God added, "Speaking of which, Krippe Rock has another special use. It can shield Celestial Gems."

She pointed to the twin towers in front of her.

"The Gem Pool, including my own body, is completely surrounded by Krip Rock, forming a semi-enclosed structure. It is a kind of celestial gem insulating material."

Insulating material?

Zhou Yi looked inside. The Twin Towers region beneath the moon had an unusually flat and vast surface with clear traces of human design and manufacturing.

If we consider the lunar megastructure as a supercomputer, with the Twin Towers as the core CPU, the Celestial Being as the memory, hard drive, and graphics card, then Kripple Rock is like the motherboard and the insulating wires.

All components were fixed and assembled on Kripka rock.

This view was endorsed by the God of Night.

"You put it in a very vivid and easy-to-understand way. The old humans really know how to do things."

"But that's not all."

A mysterious smile appeared on Yagami's face: "According to my tests, Kripstone can not only shield and envelop the Celestial Gem, but also stop the gem's operation by partially blocking it, just like an interruptor and a stop switch."

"So even though your starting point was wrong, your conclusion was correct by accident."

"If the Lunarians are cultivated into light cores, they will directly impact the Celestials' gem bodies, as long as they can be introduced into the Celestials' bodies. Theoretically, they can cause great damage to the Celestials, or even cause the gem bodies to temporarily go into hibernation."

"The reason why the Celestials cannot get close to the moon is partly due to the Kriplin on the surface of this planet. This substance can shield and block the Celestials' gems, and it is their restraining substance."

"Of course, I don't think this is a natural product; it should be man-made. It was created by the group that used the Celestials as tools to counterbalance or limit the Celestial Gem bodies."

Zhou Yi thought to himself, "Holy crap!"

It turns out that the seemingly insignificant Lunarians are actually special agents targeting the Celestials?
