Chapter 314 The Nahash Civilization: Tradition and Change Go Hand in Hand (4K)
"Really?" Li Ye asked, half believing and half doubting.

He actually couldn't quite believe it.

If it were just a corpse, the Nahashians wouldn't have gone to such lengths to build hidden floors or deploy such powerful defenses.

He quickly arrived at the giant tower and came to the hidden floor.

Behind the hidden door on the lower floor lies an ancient sacrificial hall.

A crystal coffin was prominently displayed in the center of the hall.

The body lying in the coffin was the very one Novi had mentioned.

After seeing the appearance of the corpse, Li Ye was stunned.

Because the corpse had an animal face and a human body, its face resembled an owl, while the body below its neck was human.

The corpse, both in appearance and body, appeared so lifelike that it gave the illusion that the person was still asleep.

He was accompanied by Fang Yong and Veronica, and everyone was stunned.

"What on earth is this thing?" Fang Yong asked in surprise.

"It seems the secrets of the Nahash civilization are far more numerous than we imagined," the old professor remarked.

Looking around the hall, Li Ye noticed that the ceiling and walls were covered with countless ancient murals and inscriptions.

When he looked closely at the murals, he was surprised to find that they depicted many ancient buildings and countless Nahash people with animal faces and human bodies.

“Novi, try to decipher these murals and inscriptions,” he said.

A dozen minutes later, Novi provided the decryption results.

The Nahash civilization is an ancient civilization with a history of over 10,000 years.

It possesses a unique civilization system called "Ascension".

Only those who can withstand the "test" and endure hardships can become "ascended beings".

In the Nahash civilization, there is a special name for those who ascend.

It is called "Asura".

Li Ye looked again at the murals on the ceiling and walls.

The Asuras in the portraits are all capable of going to heaven and earth; they are practically omnipotent.

"Can you decipher any more information, Novie?" he asked.

“I’m sorry, Master, this is my limit,” Novi replied.

Li Ye turned his head to look at the Asura in the crystal coffin, and his brows furrowed.

He obtained a lot of crucial information in this giant tower, but it was still far from enough.

"Be careful, Alliance Leader, he might still be alive," Fang Yong whispered a reminder.

The accompanying research team members were deeply moved.

"To possess such an ancient civilization system and develop such advanced technology," the old professor said sincerely. "Truly amazing! The Nahash civilization truly lives up to its reputation as a civilization that combines tradition and innovation!"

Just then, Li Ye suddenly received a report from a reconnaissance pilot.

A planetary-sized dust storm has formed hundreds of kilometers away and is now gradually moving towards the giant tower where the Tomorrow Alliance is located.

"A planetary-level dust storm?" His expression changed slightly. "How exactly does it form?"

Recalling his previous experience on the planet Serandis, Li Ye instantly realized what was happening and quickly went outside the giant tower to look up at the sky.

As expected, Amat also has two satellites.

At this moment, these three celestial bodies have aligned in a line and generated a huge tidal force.

The first thing to happen is a spasm of the earth's crust.

Under the influence of tidal forces, the rock strata are stretched like crumpled tin foil under asymmetrical gravitational pull. Large and small mountains in the desert will collapse into glass plains within half an hour, while the originally flat and wide mountains will suddenly rise to form new crystalline mountains.

If someone were to use a crust scanner to record the curves of crustal movement, they would find that it looks remarkably like the electrocardiogram of a dying behemoth.

On this desert planet, billions of tons of sand grains were transformed into fluid by gravitational anomalies, forming super sand waves with speeds reaching hundreds of kilometers per hour.

This flowing wall of death sand is thousands of meters high, its surface crackling with blue-purple electric arcs due to static friction.

If ordinary vehicles or mobile cities are caught in the sand, their outer armor will first be ignited by the supersonic friction between the sand grains, and then they will be dragged into the depths of the sand waves and crushed and reassembled like a concrete mixer.

Moreover, due to tidal forces, gravity has dropped to zero in some areas of Amat, causing countless sandstone formations to float up into the sky as if weightless, while adjacent areas are experiencing supergravity.

The sandstorm is advancing very quickly and will reach the area where Tomorrow's Alliance is located in about ten minutes.

Li Ye quickly thought about it.

If the Alliance wants to fly together to evade the attack tomorrow, it will probably be too late. In-flight adjustments would take at least several hours.

"In that case, we can only rely on the Iron Whale."

As the black wall of dust storm rolled in from the horizon, the entire sky began to howl, and the charged silica dust rubbed against each other in the gale, creating tens of thousands of lightning bolts.

However, as it approached the area where Tomorrow's Alliance was located, the sandstorm veered to both sides as if it had hit an invisible concave mirror. Hundreds of millions of tons of sand were forced to flow along the distorted gravitational curve, creating sand waves and waterfalls thousands of meters high around it!

When the sandstorm receded, the desert surrounding Tomorrow Alliance had been completely transformed. The traces left by gravity manipulation had arranged the nearby dunes into countless irregular geometric patterns.

After escaping danger, Li Ye continued to arrange the collection of metal resources.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will demolish the entire giant tower.

As for that Asura.

A few hours later, everyone was surprised to learn the result.

He is indeed dead.

When the research team reached a consensus, they prepared to open the crystal coffin to study him.
The moment the crystal coffin lid was opened, Asura's body turned into countless grains of sand and vanished.

When Li Ye opened his eyes, it was already dawn.

Several days had passed by then, and the giant tower had been completely demolished.

In the past few days, the remaining two intelligence reports have also been updated.

7. The ruler of the Vampire Civilization possesses a Level 3 City Crystal on his necklace. Currently, the Vampire Civilization has fled to the Eternal Night District in the southern part of the Western Wilderness Continent for refuge. (Intelligence Value: Epic)

8. The planet Amat contains abundant oil and gas resources. (Intelligence value: Legendary)

[The following is a map showing the distribution of oil and gas fields (click to view)]

"Are they all resource-related intelligence?" Li Ye couldn't help but ponder.

The vampire civilization is only a level 3 monster civilization, so the Alliance of Tomorrow can deal with it very easily.

Once you get the level 3 city crystals, the remaining level 3 upgrade resources will be much easier to gather.

But the key issue is that the vampire civilization is located in the Western Wilderness.

As for the extraction of natural gas and oil fields, that was naturally left to the Engineer.

A few hours later, he learned some unexpected information.

A reconnaissance pilot discovered the ancient ruins of the Nahash civilization 500 kilometers away.

Li Ye nodded.

"In that case, let's see."

After traveling for most of the day, Tomorrow Alliance finally arrived at their destination. Li Ye saw the ancient ruins with his own eyes.

It is like a sleeping giant, its body half-hidden beneath the flowing sea of ​​sand.

Judging from its appearance, this ancient site is clearly a city.

Although it has been abandoned for a long time, it still exudes a breathtaking majesty and mystery.

In the city center, a massive, ancient disc lies half-buried in the sand. It measures a kilometer in diameter and its surface is covered with cracks. Scattered around the disc are twelve astrolabes, their bronze rails long since corroded, yet still faintly discernible as intricate structures for observing and calculating the stars.

The area surrounding the disc was filled with countless broken obelisks, their surfaces covered with ancient runes that cascaded towards the scorching sky, each mark silently recounting past glory.

As the view expands from near to far, the ruins of the entire city resemble the spine of a giant dragon, undulating among the sand dunes. Intricate reliefs, depicting the city's history, can still be seen on the broken bricks and stones.

The scene was so spectacular that it took everyone a long time to recover.

However, due to the recent sandstorm, this ancient site has been buried by a large amount of sand and dust.

After careful consideration, one of the researchers raised a question.

“A long, long time ago, this was probably the city where the Nahash people lived,” he said. “But Amat sometimes experiences dust storms due to celestial conjunctions. How did the city protect itself from these attacks?”

Everyone fell into deep thought.

The researchers' speculation is clearly quite reasonable.

Li Ye's gaze fell on the disc that was thousands of meters long.

Perhaps, it was this that protected the entire city.

Veronica pointed at it.

"Let's go and observe it. Maybe we'll find the answer."

Upon arriving near the disc, the group discovered that it was also covered with countless patterns and words.

Li Ye then turned on the handheld computer he was carrying.

"Time to get to work, Novie."

After more than an hour of deciphering, Novi obtained some key information.

This city has existed for tens of thousands of years.

The circular disc in the city center is called the "Ascension Disc," a ritual site specifically used by the Nahash civilization to give birth to Asuras.

An Asura who has successfully ascended can perform a series of miracles by manipulating the Ascension Disc.

For example, it can generate rainfall, defend against sandstorms, and cure diseases for all the city's inhabitants.

After hearing what she said, everyone exchanged glances, their eyes filled with surprise.

"Is it really that amazing?"

Just then, someone raised an objection.

That's the old professor.

“Something’s not right, this is very wrong,” he muttered. “The Nahash civilization from tens of thousands of years ago should have been very primitive, at a stage where they ate raw meat and drank blood. And with such a harsh geographical environment on Amat, how did they develop this ascension system?”

Then, he pointed to the ascending disc.

"Have you noticed that this ascension disc and its surrounding facilities are actually countless times more advanced than the entire city?"

Li Ye instantly understood what the old professor meant.

This ascension disc and ascension system were clearly not created by the Nahash people, but rather something they acquired by chance tens of thousands of years ago.

The old professor became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Let's take a closer look. Tens of thousands of years ago, the Nahash civilization was an extremely backward existence. Then, a certain being visited the planet Amat, bestowed upon them an ascension system, and created for them a disc capable of creating Asuras."

"This sudden blessing allowed the Nahash civilization to protect itself with Asuras and discs, thus developing into what it is today."

"Otherwise, given the environment of Amat, the Nahash civilization would have been wiped out long ago."

Everyone fell into deep thought for a moment.

After thinking for a long time, Veronica slowly spoke.

“Professor, what we see so far is merely a giant tower and a ruin; we don't yet have a true understanding of the Nahash civilization,” she said. “Actually, I'm more inclined to believe that the Nahash civilization itself developed this system over a long period of time.”

As for leaving the wilderness, his thoughts were actually quite contradictory.

On an emotional level, he supported Veronica's point of view.

After all, it is incredibly awe-inspiring and even captivating that an alien civilization could develop an unprecedented ascension system over tens of thousands of years.

It would be rather disappointing if this system were simply obtained from others.

However, rationally speaking, he was more inclined to side with the old professor.

Moreover, he had another question in his mind.

Several days have passed since the Tomorrow Alliance arrived on Amat.

But he didn't see any monsters or mutated creatures at all.

A surprising idea popped into his head.

"Could it be that they were all wiped out by the Nahash civilization?"

This is quite possible, because Novi once said that the Nahash civilization's technological level starts at level 5.

Judging from the tower, this civilization also possessed nuclear technology.

As he pondered, Li Ye's expression gradually became serious.

The mysteries have been piling up without us even realizing it.

We must find out the current situation of Amat and the Nahash civilization.

He immediately ordered the construction of rocket launch platforms to launch rockets into space and deploy reconnaissance satellites.

Thanks to reusable rockets, the cost of launching satellites into space this time was much lower.

Furthermore, the rocket launch platforms that are built can be recycled back into steel mills and smelted into steel.

Yang Zheng expressed his concerns with great worry.

"Leader, judging from the current situation, the Nahash civilization has clearly survived the supernatural modifications," he said. "With their technological level, if we launch a satellite into the sky, they will detect it, or even shoot it down."

A strange light flashed in Li Ye's eyes.

He had naturally taken that into account.

Therefore, he would arrange for the super mobile suit Ember Angel to escort the rocket during launch until the satellite was deployed in space.

However, Yang Zhengkuo did indeed remind him.

Once the satellite is launched, the Nahash civilization will realize that an alien force has invaded Amat and may even be able to detect the location of the Tomorrow Alliance.

The consequences that may arise are completely unpredictable.

"In short, the Alliance needs to be fully prepared for tomorrow," he thought to himself.

With the rocket and satellite completed, the rocket launch platform was also constructed.

Tomorrow Alliance officially began launching rockets at dawn on the new day.
