Chapter 1115: Good Omen
Sometimes I really think that the shallow mouth has been so magical that it can't be added, a lot of things that seem to be in line with the scientific concept of development, as long as you filter it from the shallow logical circle, let her cranial nerves process it for you at will, and when it comes out, even its own mother doesn't know it, as I said before, no one can tell how our real world was twisted in the shallow head and then popped out of her mouth, anyway, when she came out of a word, my sister was not calm in an instant, The corner of her eye twitched and she knocked on the door of her shallow head, as for Alayah, the angel sister, who was not there, and was still walking on the ramp of the Angel Wall.
Aurelia obviously paused, the light on her body flickered and dimmed, I felt that the shallow now must be far from her impression of Lord Vanna, so even she took a few seconds to react, and her wings flapped slightly: "It's him, Lord Alayah transferred through the Sky Tower when he left this world, and Odemtius is the designer of the Sky Tower's core defense system, and he knows the core secret of that tower." And now, he's almost awakened......"
The projection in the center of the hall changed for a moment, revealing a rugged and desolate mountain landscape with snow-covered mountains in the background, "This is the northern part of the continent, closer to the northern border, and according to the information I have gathered, most of the inhabitants of the northern frontier here believe in an ancient spirit they call 'Storm Giant', this ancient spirit was the first to respond to the order of the Empire, and his recovery progress is faster than the others. According to the faint message from the 'Storm Giant', it may be the incarnation of Oldumtius. In this way, Odemseus is the first occult commander to awaken, which is good news. With his help and the Sky Tower system, the Commanders will wake up in large numbers over the next few days, and our work will be done soon. β
Of course, we don't know any of the commanders of the Fifteen Heavens Zone of the Old Empire, but judging from Aurelia's description, this Imperial officer whose name sounds like he came out of ancient Greece is a member of the mysterious side of the Fifteen Heavens Zone back then, not only as a high-ranking officer. And he was a brilliant researcher and polymath. I still remember that the system designer of the Sky Tower had Alayy's name written on it, and Odemtius was in charge of designing the defense components of the Sky Tower, so he, like Aurelia, should have been the assistant of the angel sister back thenβthis is strange to me, the two assistants looked more shrewd and capable than the other, how could they follow such a two-hundred-five who walked on the ground and wrestled?
"Please don't underestimate Lord Alayya's strength," Aurelia said softly but firmly as she heard me mutter. "Although her personality is a bit odd, her strength is the strongest of all the angels, at least in the Fifteen Heavenly Regions, and she has extremely profound knowledge of the Holy Light and magical energy, and now she just can't use those materials, and with the information of the two Heavenly Regions opening up to each other, you will soon learn that Lord Alaya is of indispensable value to you......"
"I know what I know," I waved my hand in tears. Aurelia is a good person. It's a pity that it's too rigid, even more rigid than Tavel - at least Tavel is quite humane outside of scientific research (of course, we have to admit that Tavel's time outside of scientific research is basically negligible), and Aurelia is always in a serious state, as if she has never learned how to write the word "joke", "I have never despised Alaye, she gave me a child......
Everyone quieted down for a moment, and Lin Xue began to twist my neck: "Wood, your mouth is going to die, right?" β
I hurriedly slipped Xiao Qijing out of the spiritual sea: "I'm talking about this! I'm talking about this! β
Aurelia's attention was focused on the little white girl who suddenly appeared out of thin air. The light flickered all over her body, and she seemed to have a great interest in the latter: "A semi-mature energy life? It's funny that she has the breath of Lord Alayah, but doesn't fit into any kind of life structure of the Apostle of Hilling, she's the child of you and Lord Alayah......"
"Ahem, that's actually what happened." I quickly explained the origin of Xiao Qijing, this child is too rare. Aurelia didn't even know that there was such an "imperial princess" in the road, and even Vanilla, Sakina, and Sona had almost forgotten that they knew such a child, and I sometimes worried that this girl would grow hair if she didn't come out to bask in the sun again......
Xiao Qijing rarely comes out, because she is afraid of being very angry, after seeing a strange-looking glowing sister appear in front of her, the little guy immediately exclaimed, and then suddenly ran behind me, grabbed the hem of my clothes tightly, only poked her little head out to look in the direction of Aurelia, and the only beautiful big eye was full of curiosity: "Dad, Mom, is this a noodle vat?" β
Lin Xue was watching the excitement, and when she heard the words, she almost fell to the ground, and looked at me with a kind of unsuccessful look: "Wood, it's really your child - Xiaoxue will become like that in the future, I'm afraid that at least one-third of your genes will be inherited, right?" β
Chen Xiaoxue, the bear child king, immediately shouted: "Take me with you for everything, take me for everything!" Are you such a damn thing! β
Aurelia looked at Xiao Qijing, and then at our circle of adults, as if she wanted to sigh something, but before she could speak, a beam of holy light suddenly appeared nearby to interrupt her words, and Alayah's figure rushed out of the beam formed by the holy light, holding something in her arms, looking in a hurry: "Quick! Aurelia! Come and see, I found this! What is this? β
"Lord Alayya," Aurelia rushed over at once, "this is ...... The nascent core? Where did you find it?! β
It was only then that I could see what Alaya was holding, a fusiform ball of light the length of an adult's forearm that emitted a soft white light, and Alaya held it carefully in her arms, as if she were holding a baby. I noticed that there seemed to be something in the light cluster, as if it were constantly circulating, but no matter how I looked at it, I couldn't see what it really was, and I could only feel some kind of pulsation coming from the soft light, faint, tenacious, as if life was breathing.
"At the end of the ramp, near a hanging tower, I don't know what's going on, but I feel something calling, I open a crystal door, and by the time I react, I have this glowing ...... in my arms It seems to be getting darker! β
"This is the Angel Core! But the Angel Wall hasn't activated yet......" Aurelia waved her right hand. It summons a control panel-like thing in the air. She said as she sped up on the panel, and after a few seconds, we heard some kind of low roar coming from all directions, as if some large device was activating, and the ground beneath her feet began to shake slightly, "Anyway, it must be transferred to the hatching lattice immediately...... I'll see - great, enough energy. There's a lattice that can be used immediately, but it hasn't been used for tens of thousands of years, and hopefully nothing will come wrong...... Everybody come with me! β
Before we could react, Aurelia had completed a dizzying series of maneuvers, and then a portal several meters high appeared behind the group, and then she flew in first, followed by Alaya and the still somewhat confused people.
After the teleportation is complete. We came to a bizarre interior space. My instinct told me that I hadn't left the Platinum Pagoda yet. The hall was so wide that it was difficult to see the borders of the square was full of cubes made of transparent crystal stone bricks, each cube was about ten meters long, wide and high, and the distance between each other was also ten meters, these structures were arranged neatly, and the ground was drawn with blue crystal powder with straight lines of energy channeling, and there was a continuous flow of arcane light along these wide lines into the surrounding crystal cubes. The cube closest to us was already open, and the crystalline wall facing the crowd was surging like water ripples, and Alaya walked into the cube with the latter under the guidance of Aurelia, and the two of them were carefully placing the cocoon-like white light cluster in the oval container in the center of the crystal cube, which looked a bit like some kind of hibernation pod, but it was very different from the hibernation pods full of technology that he had seen before- In fact, it's been a long time since I've seen a sleeping pod outside of a coffin.
We're a bunch of complete laymen, and we're still in a state of confusion. Naturally, he didn't dare to go up and make trouble casually, so he had to wait outside the cube, but because the crystal cube was transparent throughout, even from the outside, the actions of the two people inside could be clearly seen, Alaya stood aside with his hands down after putting the light cocoon into the "sleeping pod", it seemed that he didn't know what to do next, while Aurelia began to busily adjust several rune arrays floating outside the dormant pod, it seemed that he was setting some parameters manually, although he couldn't see the latter's expression, But judging from the flickering brightness of the other party's body, she is very nervous now.
Aurelia is right, everything here is old, although many things made by the Xiling Empire can function normally after many thousands of years, but the passage of time will still reduce their performance, and the crystal cube in front of him is obviously affected by this, it looks like it should be a very delicate thing, the passage of time has the most lethal effect on this precision facility, Aurelia is constantly debugging the control panel outside the hibernation pod, but the light in the hibernation pod is still fading rapidly.
At this moment, a small figure suddenly ran into the crystal cube while everyone was not paying attention, turned into a white light and rushed into the sleeping cabin, just when everyone was stunned, this white light slipped out of the sleeping cabin again, it turned out to be Xiao Qijing, who had been shrinking her head and hiding behind the adult, this little girl ran back and grinned at me: "Dad, hug!" Dozed off! β
I bent down to hold the miniature girl who was less than a meter tall in my arms, and the mercury lamp bent down and pulled the hair of my special sister: "Wow, it looks like it's darkened a lot, and the ends of the hair are transparent!" β
I also noticed this, some of the energy in Xiao Qijing's body disappeared, she ran out of the crystal cube and looked deadly, and the light on her body flickered on and off, and she was worried at first when she saw this scene, but soon, she replenished her energy through the soul connection between her and me, and then closed her eyes and fell asleep purringly. The ability to sleep in seconds definitely comes from Alayah.
"The situation has stabilized," Aurelia's voice temporarily drew my attention to Xiao Qijing's cute sleeping face, the former had left the crystal cube, behind her, the walls of the cube had re-solidified, and the hibernation pod inside was emitting a steady and balanced white light, Aurelia looked curiously at the little girl in my arms, "Just this kid refueled the newborn core?" How did she do it? In the absence of a matching device, she ...... How can you recharge the core of a soul that is failing? β
"I've wanted to ask for a long time, what the hell is that?" I waved my hand. Pointing to the sleeping pod not far away, he first asked his own question.
That is the heart of the newborn angels. I mentioned before that the Angel Wall creates this kind of core, and after catalysis, they can grow into Hiling Angels, and this is how Lord Alaya and I were born," Aurelia said lightly, but there was still a hint of happiness in her voice, "I don't know what's going on, how can there still be a new core on the Angel Wall." It stopped working early in the morning...... And the entire City of Angels was dismantled and stored in the Assembly Hall, and it was impossible for it to function......"
"Then it may have been left behind 70,000 years ago," my sister looked in the direction of the sleeping pod, with a thoughtful expression on her face, "Maybe it took shape before the division of the home planet, but in the hurry, it was forgotten in the ...... in the embryo. β
Aurelia's wings shook slightly, and she whispered, "It's possible...... It's so dangerous. The kid was on the verge of death. It's incredible. A newborn core has lasted so long......"
Only then did I understand one thing, and gently lifted the dim little Qijing who was already sleeping in my arms gently: "This child has an ability called soul parasitism, she is a soul body herself, and she can also parasitize in other souls, she can absorb the life force and information of the target to make herself grow, and now it seems that she can also reverse this process, just now she must have gone to recharge that core." β
There is a half sentence that I didn't say: this girl came to me to charge after charging someone else.
Aurelia's attention was on me, and I felt like I was being stared at even when I couldn't see her expression. Finally, when I couldn't help but ask, Aurelia spoke, "You and your daughter are very good at recharging people. β
Me: "......" Is she remembering that I overcharged myself a while ago and ended up being an incandescent light bulb overnight?
At this time, Qianqian seemed to have just remembered something, and pointed to the dormant cabin in front of him with a surprised face: "It turns out that the angel is oviparous?" β
Everyone: "......" What has this girl been thinking for the past few minutes?!
Not to mention our gang, even Aurelia, who has never been shocked, is a little dumbfounded this time, it is estimated that she has never seen a person who can randomly combine what happened around her to such an extent in the first half of her life, she folded her wings. Move away from the shallow by a faint amplitude: "This ...... Angels are energy beings, and like all the Apostles of Hilling, we have several ways of being born, and this core manufacturing method is only widely used because it is very efficient......"
"Alright, don't bother explaining," I patted Aurelia on the wing, "and if you explain it any longer, maybe she'll make up for how many versions of your brain will be made up - oviparous, oviparous, we have one here that is born in soil." As I spoke, my eyes fell on Ding Dong, who looked up keenly: "Ah Jun? What's the horse? β
Everyone stayed outside the crystal cube (Aurelia called this the hatching lattice) for a while, quietly staring at the hibernation chamber inside the cube that was gradually shrouded in white light, and the sister had a warm smile on her face, even Alaya was smiling, perhaps this unexpected appearance of the angel core was a good sign: since the revival of the mother planet, the first newborn little life is quietly sleeping in front of our eyes.
"Is it okay to just leave it here?" My sister looked at the dormant chamber in the hatching lattice, her eyes looked around, the hatching lattice in front of her was the only one in the active state, except for it, the crystal cubes around us were shrouded in a dull feeling, and it seemed that the whole space was a little lifeless because of this, "Feeling...... It's going to be lonely. β
"It takes time for a new core to grow, and the wall of angels won't be able to resume production in a while," Aurelia said, placing her hand on the lattice wall, "looking" at the dormant pod inside, "I'll leave a mindful body dedicated to taking care of this child." β
I looked at Aurelia in surprise, I didn't expect her to make such an emotional decision when she always looked like a businessman.
The newborn core that we accidentally discovered in the City of Angels from ancient times was just a small episode, and we stayed next to the hatching lattice for a while, and found that there was nothing we could do to help, so we returned to the upper level of the Platinum Tower, leaving only the Soulful Body of Aurelia to take care of the newborn.
The next day, we received a report from Aurelia that she had found the reaction signal of the first resuscitated Imperial commander, Odemtius, and as expected, the officer appeared in the northernmost part of the continent, but probably because he had just woken up, and the other party was still a little confused, so he applied to stay in place for half a day.
Because I was very bored in the City of Angels, I decided to take Asashi and Lin Xue and follow Alaya and Aurelia to see for themselves, while leaving the others in the Dragon Kingdom, but when I was about to leave, something happened to me quite unexpectedly: Sagina and Sona suddenly appeared and offered to follow us.
"We're going to find someone."
Sona said.
