The eight energy pillars are emitting light. Although no energy field appears, they are working, otherwise they would not shine. The reason is simple, because they were never light tubes.
The energy column is working, but Cassia Ruiz is telling stories. Is this normal
Xia Lei's heart was full of doubts, but there were no signs of anything unusual here, and Cassia Ruiz showed no signs of attacking him. But even if he suspected that Cassia Ruiz had a conspiracy, he had no other choice but to remain vigilant. This is his sadness, he feels like a fish in a fisherman's net.
Cassia Ruiz continued to tell his story, "One day, the sky suddenly became dark and nothing could be seen. The sea had huge waves, flash floods, and earthquakes. The scene was like the end of the world. The sky was lost. On the second day of the light, there was a violent explosion in the sky. You can't imagine the power of the explosion. Many forests were flattened by the shock wave of the explosion. After the explosion, many fireballs fell from the sky. Some were metal fragments, and some were never. Something I have never seen before. I was lucky, I picked up that compass..."
Hearing this, Xia Lei couldn't help but interrupt Cassia Ruiz, "What exploded?"
Cassia Ruiz shook his head, "You might not believe it, but I really don't know."
"Then you know how to use a compass to find something?" Xia Lei had to admit that he had been attracted by Cassia Ruiz's story.
Cassia Ruiz said: "Of course I didn't know at first, I had never seen anything like that. The era I was born in was the Cold Weapon Age, which is similar to the ancient times here. You can't expect me, an ancient person, to figure out these things. .Soon after I got the compass, its pointer moved. I was very curious about where it would take me. I followed the compass' instructions and climbed over mountains and crossed rivers... Finally, I found the place. Just a box.”
Xia Lei couldn't help but ask: "Is it complete?"
"No, it's missing a horn," Cassia Ruiz said.
Xia Lei was suddenly surprised. Even Cassia Ruiz didn't see the last fragment!
Where is the last piece
This is a mystery!
Cassia Ruiz said: "At first, I suspected that the last fragment was on our planet. However, the compass pointer pointed to the sky. I tried every means, but I couldn't go to heaven."
Xia Lei secretly thought: "Both compasses point to the sky? Is the one in Ixitabu a fake?"
Cassia Ruiz continued, "I got the box in pieces, but I didn't know what it was for, I didn't know who made it, where it came from. But I got it from the box. Something, some sparkly mineral powder…”
Xia Lei became inexplicably nervous.
Cassia Ruiz laughed, "You must already know what that is, right?"
"ae capsule." Xia Lei said.
Cassia Ruiz said: "It is not a capsule, it is indeed a mineral powder that contains magical energy."
Mineral powder
Xia Lei's eyes moved to the huge "black jade"-like rock at his feet. This rock also contained magical energy. Where did these stones come from? His heart was filled with endless imagination.
Cassia Ruiz said: "You got something, you don't know what it is, but it looks so magical. Can you resist your curiosity? Can you resist its temptation? But in my case At that time, I didn’t have the research equipment you have, and all I could use was my tongue. In our tribe, if we want to gain someone’s power, we usually eat him.”
Xia Lei, "..."
"I ate a little bit, just a little bit," Cassia Ruiz said. "I didn't feel anything, it didn't even taste. But I was careful, I didn't eat it all at once, I ate a little bit every few days." Previous After about two months, I ate it. But I didn't get stronger because of it. Until one day, the enemy of our tribe attacked and I was stabbed. I survived by luck. After that, I found that my body started to change..."
Xia Lei doesn't need to imagine his situation, because Cassia Ruiz's situation is almost his flip-flop! It’s just a different way of stimulating the energy latent in the body!
Cassia Ruiz said: "I gained great power and my life changed forever. I killed our chief and ate his heart in front of the people. I became the new chief of our tribe. Before I spared no one who looked down on me or bullied me. I killed them all. After integrating the strength of my troops, I began to conquer other tribes. In every battle, I rushed to the front and was invincible to those who stood in my way. I My body is evolving every day, and I am getting stronger. My desire to conquer the world is getting stronger and stronger. I can't stop, and the territory of my empire is constantly expanding. In its heyday, I had An army of millions, rivers of blood flow wherever they go. The woman I like, no matter if she has a man or not, she has to sleep with me. The thing I like, no matter who its owner is, must be given to me …”
"are you happy?"
Cassia Ruiz said: "I was not happy at all. When I first started, I just got stronger and stronger. My fists were like bombs in your world. I could blow up a cow with one punch. Finally, I was even able to blast open the city gate."
A question that he had thought about before suddenly flashed through Xia Lei's mind, "Could it be that different races have different abilities after eating that mineral powder?"
Cassia Ruiz said: "But as the body evolves, my body becomes more and more transparent, and I become indifferent. Even if my wife or my children irritate me, I will always Punch explosion. Also, I lost interest in food, and everything I ate had no taste. At first I just hated those foods, but then I would spit out any bit I ate, and I felt uncomfortable for several days. I thought I was going to die, and I thought that before I Unlock the box's secrets and find the answers before you die."
Xia Lei sneered, "You actually want to find out the cause, solve the problem, and then continue to be your tyrant, right?"
Cassia Ruiz ignored Xia Lei's sarcasm and continued, "I mentioned the next thing in the Bronze Book. I took that compass and traveled across thousands of mountains and rivers, looking for that explosion. Then leave what fell to the earth. When I conquered the world, I barely touched the compass. I took it with me on my journey, and during the journey I received its instructions. Sometimes I The incomprehensible voice is sometimes a dream. But no matter what it is, I am sure it is giving me instructions... "
"What did you find?"
"Didn't you see them all?" Cassia Ruiz said with a hint of pride in his voice, "Stones, one stone after another."
Xia Lei was stunned for a moment, "You mean... this city?"
"Yes and no."
"What do you mean?"
"What you see is a city, but what I initially got were just stones one after another." Cascia Ruiz seemed to be recalling something, "According to the instructions of the compass, I piled the stones I found one after another. , and slowly the city was built.”
“Did you want to build it like this or did the box make you build it like this?”
"Of course it is." Cascia Ruiz said: "Everything here is built according to its instructions. The placement of every stone and the position of every stone are completely processed according to its instructions. Did you know? In order to complete its instructions, it took me more than ten thousand years just to collect these stones."
A person spends more than 10,000 years picking up stones. What kind of persistence is that
"During the process of picking up stones, my body completely disappeared and became what it is now." Casia Ruiz said: "It took me more than 10,000 years to build this stone city. You Maybe you think I'm crazy and boring, but what I want to tell you is that that period was the most fulfilling and interesting time I have ever spent." Cassia Ruiz said: "After this city was established, I gave It has a name, it’s called - City in the Sky.”
Joe Hisaishi has a famous light music also called this name, but now it seems that only Cassia Ruiz owns all the copyrights to this name.
"After the city was established, I got new hints." Cascia Ruiz pointed to an energy bar on his side. "I found them again. When I found them, they had lost their invincibility. Most of the energy was dim. I brought them to the city one by one. After entering the city, they began to replenish energy, but the process was very slow... "
Xia Lei's eyes moved to an energy column, and suddenly, he seemed to understand something! And the uneasy feeling before emerged again - these energy pillars are actually replenishing energy!
"It was a very long wait." Cassia Ruiz said: "Ten thousand years and ten thousand years, I don't know how many thousands of years I have waited. My world is destroyed, but I still exist. My world has been restored. Breeding life, starting a new evolutionary journey, new civilization is also being built bit by bit... "
Xia Lei thought of Isitabu, the "latecomer" of Cassia Ruiz. The new life that Cassia Ruiz is talking about now is obviously the kind of Isitabu, and the new civilization is also the civilization that was later established in that world.
"I have no interest in those people who came later and their civilization. I have seen the destruction of too many races and the destruction of too many civilizations. I have become numb to those things. But I am waiting for someone to During the time of refining and recharging, the compass gave me a lot of instructions, which allowed me to get involved in the evolution of the people who came after me. Some techniques were passed from the instructions of the compass to my head, and then through me they were input into the people who came after me. Among civilizations. The civilizations of later generations are becoming more and more powerful, dead people can be copied, and human bodies can enter pre-evolution through drugs. In the end, everything is out of control... "
Xia Lei was shocked.
Somehow, he believed Cassia Ruiz's story.
Before, he thought that Cassia Ruiz learned the technology of making human clones through Isitabu. Now it seems that this is not the case, but the compass was created by Cassia Ruiz in a way of preserving seedlings and promoting growth. The civilization of those who came after that world!
But standing in the "CPU" of this mysterious "City in the Sky", those stories of distant alien planets and distant eras seem to be happening before our eyes!
For this "City in the Sky", tens of thousands of years or even millions of years are just a blink of an eye!
