Chapter 928: The puzzle of modern civilization

As Phyllis shared her vision through the [Dawn System]:
Those virtual energy crystals seemed to have life, slowly condensing and growing through the remains of the insect swarm.
Every flicker of light is accompanied by a slight fluctuation of energy.
It was as if some ancient and mysterious ritual was being performed, transforming the life essence of the swarm into pure energy.

In the center of the laboratory stands a huge machine, covered with complex runes and unknown technological devices. It is this machine that seems to control the entire process.

The core part of the machine,

A huge virtual energy crystal was actually used as an energy source, constantly radiating a soft yet powerful energy field, enveloping the entire space.

The surrounding walls are inlaid with various display screens and control panels.

Although most of them have lost their luster due to age, one can still vaguely feel that this was once a highly developed area.

However, this technological direction seems to be completely different from that of Earth.

"The genetic ascension technology belonging to the Twilight Cluster."

Su Wen gave the answer calmly.

After all, he experienced almost the entire process of the border war between Star Tower Clemens and Saint Daohuifar.

In the recent past,

Qin also shared all of her confirmed Star Tower knowledge base with Su Wen without reservation.

But obviously,

There is a threshold to knowledge.

It's the same for both Qin and him, so even if they know it, it takes a process to transform this knowledge into engineering or life sciences.

in other words,

Although the path that these bastards had taken was further away than his, it was completely wrong:
"Phyllis,

I have arrived at the real Wall of Hercules, but here, I only saw researchers from Lesionton.

in other words
In my prediction,
You will most likely need to face the [Relic Scholar] directly."

"Relic scholar?"

Phyllis replied quietly.

She hadn't actually heard of the name before.

After all, it could be considered a scandal belonging to the Great Library, so it would not be publicized casually.

It was only when Su Wen met these masked lunatics in Moscow and St. Petersburg that he learned about this possibly secret information.

“This is a secret, and it’s normal that you haven’t heard of it.

of course,

The difference between this group of people and the cultists is that all their goals are not based on pleasing the evil gods or increasing the entropy of the current civilization.

But the only point is to make the projected relics real. "

"Can such a thing really be done?"

After six months of studying at Lawrence Real, Phyllis has gained her own understanding of the so-called "historical relics".

But it is precisely because of the deeper understanding that

She then realized how ridiculous this was.

Hearing the girl's uneasy question, Su Wen, who had saved some of the little mermaids from the deep-sea ruins through the [Higgs-Boson God Ritual], couldn't help but smile.
"Who knows?
But I can tell you that this kind of thing is called "Taboo" in the Great Library.

And Constance, the principal of Lawrence Riel,
He is a member of the Pacific Region Sage Council of the Great Library."

Even Su Wen could not completely replicate the entire remains of Atlantis civilization.

Therefore, he already had a general idea of what the [Relic Scholar] wanted to do.

However, through Phyllis's perspective, she has not seen this group of people yet.

So I just instructed the students to follow the manual and cooperated with Leah to grade them.
And in this process,

She asked Su Wen:

"So what does Lawrence Riel want to do by collecting these crystals?"

"perhaps,
The purpose is the same as that of the Relic Scholar. [Void Crystal] is one of the cores of the Twilight Cluster interstellar navigation.

That is galactic energy that is comparable to Eternal Dawn's [nuclear fusion technology] and even the more advanced [Dyson sphere] technology.

He gave a gentle smile.

"If I describe it this way,

Now you should understand the weight behind it.”

The handsome scholar snapped his fingers lightly:
"So,
Miss Phyllis, it's time to start implementing my plan.

First, it is the [performance] of the projected ruins.

If I am right, you should have been given an identity, just like countless fictional relics from the masquerade, you should have been given a [destiny].

of course,

This is just their way of saying it.

If I describe it as a role-playing game, maybe you’ll understand it more easily.”

He continued as Phyllis looked confused.
"Then do you know the fate that this space station was supposed to have encountered?"

"destroy?"

"Yes, so your identity or destiny should be "Fugitive".

Although the countdown to destruction has been stopped,

But because the fleet has not actually arrived, the future development of this space station will be directed to some areas where the swarm is rampant, which is still dangerous. "

As his words fell, the atmosphere in the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

In an instant,

There was some noise in the communication line connecting Phyllis to him from the Dawn system.

The noise was faint, like whispers from a distant horizon, mixed with the subtle sounds of various insect swarms flapping their wings.

These sounds are unlike any melodies produced by any known organism on Earth.

They have a strange rhythm.
It was cold and threatening, like a call from the abyss, chilling one's heart.

Everyone is aware that:

This is not the music that should exist in nature, but the unique sound of the wings of a certain existence that transcends the scope of the earth's ecology:

A sound that exists only in the deepest fears, heralding imminent destruction.

in other words,

The source of this sound is only:

[Source of Destruction: Devour (Famine)] Plunder the insect swarm.

But Su Wen's voice seemed particularly steady and powerful against this background.
He continued slowly:
"and so,
Now you should understand the real meaning of why the scholars of the ruins, or the "Masquerade", created this projection ruins at all costs.

The relic scholars are not conducting a simple scientific experiment, but are carrying out an extremely terrifying galactic plan.

They kept these insects in captivity.

Using their unique life activities, they create and extract some unprecedented forms of energy in the form of border relics.
[Void Crystal]

And as I just said, this energy is enormous.

even,

It is enough to support the dream of Earth civilization to move into interstellar deep space and become the key energy source for us to achieve interstellar travel. "

Su Wen's gaze was deep, as if it could penetrate the current predicament and reach the other side of the future.

in his heart,
So far,

Several core conditions for interstellar travel of Earth civilization have surfaced one by one.

Like a puzzle, it gradually becomes complete:
