Chapter 976 - Ecology Ship, Annihilation Plan!
Chapter 976: Ecology Ship, Annihilation Plan!
“Let’s go, don’t force me to be violent!”
The elder urged.
Sun Mo and An Xinhui were separately bound by vines. They secretly tested the strength and found that the vines were very sturdy. It was impossible to break free depending on brute force.
“When you fought against the Green-robed Ancestor, who won?”
Right now, Sun Mo wanted nothing more than for the Green-robed Ancestor to appear. At the very least, being the personal student of the Green-robed Ancestor was better than becoming a slave.
“I’m standing here. So what do you think?”
The elder coldly smiled.
“But I met that Half-Saint earlier?”
Sun Mo feigned astonishment.
“Hmph, let’s go quickly.”
The elder no longer wanted to talk about this topic. Honestly speaking, he had fled. He couldn’t win against that fellow who used bugs.
“Where to?”
Sun Mo frowned. “I suggest that you leave as early as possible. The Saint Gate has purposely set traps to kill major characters from the Dark Dawn. If you continue to stay here, you guys will just be the collateral damage.”
“Since you are concerned about me, I will tell you something. No matter who it is, as long as they step into our land, all of them will die.”
The elder smiled and exuded a tyranny like he was determined to get what he wanted.
“You act like you have a pair of kings and four twos in your hands. The remaining cards must all be straights!”
Sun Mo chortled.
“What nonsense are you talking about? But it sounds very impressive.”
The elder mumbled. He thought that this was something impressive from the Nine Provinces.
Sun Mo and An Xinhui followed the elder and took many turns before they entered a great hall. The facilities here had a more complete protection.
Also, there was a lot of equipment and they looked quite familiar.
“As expected of a person who could understand the documents from the library. You know of these saint weapons.”
The elder sighed ruefully, but he also felt a little excited.
After so many years of probing, they merely understood this great hall slightly. For example, they understood how to activate and use some saint weapons and hence, they gradually discovered how powerful this building was.
Their ancestors once said that their Greenhaze Tribe was born in the holy ground. Once they could control these saint weapons, they would be able to control their own destiny and even have eternal life.
But these saint weapons were truly too hard to understand. People like the elder who only grasped a portion of the words wouldn’t be able to understand it fully. There was no need to mention the other tribesmen who completely didn’t understand the words.
“saint weapons?”
Sun Mo started. This place should be the control chamber. The so-called saint weapons were none other than the monitors, input device, communication equipment, and etc.
“Follow me!”
The elder spoke and walked toward an operating desk. After he pressed a few buttons, those monitors lit up.
“Tell me what do you see?”
As the elder operated the system, he also threatened, “If you dare to conceal things from me, I will punish this woman.”
Pak!
The elder shot out a pea.
The pea struck An Xinhui’s body and immediately germinated, growing into a long thick vine that looked like a python and wound itself around her body.
However, this time around, the vine had thorns.
Sun Mo glanced at the words flashing on the monitor screen and did his best to mask the excitement in his heart. As expected, this was a type of operating system.
Luckily, he was knowledgeable in the Xisi Language, or he wouldn’t be able to recognize it.
“What is written on it?”
The elder pointed to a few rows of words that he didn’t recognize.
“This is a warning. It says that the energy in the experimental lab is now exhausted. Also, there are traces of biological leak in the handling chamber, and this has to be handled immediately.”
There was nothing much to conceal, so Sun Mo might as well reveal them to gain some good will.
The expression of the elder immediately turned heavy. The situation was very serious, but he had also guessed it. It was unknown how many years this experimental lab had existed for. Its energy had definitely been exhausted.
“Are there any instructions on replenishing the energy?”
“I don’t know, but I can check the database!”
Sun Mo wanted to try.
The elder hesitated for a while but eventually decided to step to the side. What tricks could a slave pull? Moreover, his strength was enough to casually pinch Sun Mo to death.
Sun Mo sat down and placed his hands on the operating desk. Although his movements were rusty, he roughly knew what he had to do.
This was the advantage of having a wide horizon and having accumulated plenty of experience.
When Sun Mo was in college, he attended a few computer classes before. At that time, when the students came into the clean room, they even had to wrap plastic around their shoes.
The first time he was on a computer, the first time he touched a computing mouse, the first time he learned of StarCraft…a brand new world appeared before Sun Mo’s eyes.
To the children of the current era, computers and mobile phones were objects of everyday use. As for the people of Sun Mo’s generation, these were things that changed the world.
An Xinhui walked over. Upon seeing the thick piece of glass that was glowing in addition to unrecognizable words and pictures in it, she was completely stunned.
(Isn’t this childhood sweetheart of mine too erudite?)
An Xinhui’s talent was extremely high in many aspects. In fact, she was proficient in six types of ancient language and could decipher the documents of several different tribes. However, she couldn’t recognize a single one of these characters.
The elder didn’t care that An Xinhui was watching from the side. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to keep this a secret but rather, all his attention was drawn by those words.
This was because he knew some of the words, and this caused him to be even more focused.
This was the most priceless treasure!
This was much more valuable compared to whatever heavenly ingredients or earthly treasures.
“What are these plants?”
The elder suddenly pointed to some pictures on the screen and asked.
“The species of the Greenhaze Forest.”
Sun Mo gradually understood that this forest was a giant ecology ship. It had been an experimental lab that people from Xisi had used for expeditions and travels, as well as to collect and nurture various species.
And these aboriginals…
Sun Mo glanced at that green-skinned elder. They were actually artificial humans.
The Xisi people respected labor laws, and their citizens were not allowed to work 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. for six days per week. Moreover, they had to travel far all year round and wouldn’t be able to return home for several years. No workers could take this.
Also, the degree of danger of their work was pretty high. For example, they might be eaten by the creatures they raised or be poisoned to death by plants and flowers, and the most important thing was that they had to carry out various inhumane experiments where strict confidentiality was required…
Hence, artificial humans appeared.
Their bodies were tall and large, and their physiques were strong. They were suitable to do work that required physical strength. Even if they died, there was no need to pay compensation. Everything was settled as long as their bodies were cremated.
When the ecology battleship was destroyed due to an accident back then, because their numbers were sufficiently great, a few of these green-skinned workers had managed to survive. After that, they continued to reproduce until this era.
“It’s actually an ecology ship. It should have been drifting around the world. This can also explain why it suddenly appears on the second level of the Darkness Continent.”
Given the degree of exploration that the people of the Nine Provinces had done with regard to the Darkness Continent, if the Greenhaze Forest was here at the very start, it would be like a fair and beautiful maiden that had been abducted into a bandit nest. She would have been ravaged so badly that she became an empty husk.
(Wait a minute, this ecology ship is drifting about. In that case, does it mean that the Greenhaze Forest would be transported away again? If that’s the case, doesn’t it mean that I, who possesses a teleportation gate, would be the new owner of this ecology ship and can monopolize it if I set up a teleportation gate here?)
Sun Mo probed some of the content with excitement. The more he read, the happier he was.
Very good, those Xisi people had done experiments and collected all the data and even made backups. Also, they were arranged neatly. If he obtained them and grasped the knowledge within, the Central Province Academy’s knowledge and expertise in botany, herbology, biology, pharmacy, etc would enjoy a huge boost in improvement.
“What are you doing?”
A roar of anger suddenly rang out. After that, a sharp javelin shot toward the back of Sun Mo’s neck.
Pak!
The elder stretched out his hand and blocked the javelin.
“Scram!”
A powerfully-built male aboriginal appeared at Sun Mo’s side and punched out, aiming at his head.
Hu~
A gentle gust of wind blew over, and Sun Mo actually wasn’t able to open his eyes.
“Halt!”
The elder struck out with his crutch and blocked the aboriginal’s fist.
“Are you crazy?”
The aboriginal roared, “This place is a forbidden ground. Other than you and me, no one else is permitted to enter.”
“Chieftain, listen to me first.”
The elder indicated for the other party to calm down.
“Chieftain?”
Sun Mo turned his head and surveyed this aboriginal.
Damn! How muscular!
His single arm was as thick as Sun Mo’s entire body.
He was three meters tall and weighed over 700 pounds. He was simply like a tiny giant.
An Xinhui’s pupils narrowed intensely.
This body was simply something gifted by the heavens. Even if this person didn’t cultivate, he could simply rely on his body and devastate many people.
However, this person’s body was filled with injuries at this moment.
“He actually knows the holy language?”
The chieftain was shocked.
The so-called holy language was the Xisi Language. Because this place was known as the holy ground by the aboriginals, they referred to the language as the holy language.
“Not only does he know it, but he understands a lot.”
The elder stroked his beard.
The chieftain nodded. After that, he suddenly lifted his palm and smashed it at Sun Mo.
Retaliation Storm activated and Sun Mo immediately scuttled off.
Bang!
The elder’s reaction was slow by half a beat. But luckily, Sun Mo moved fast enough and gave the elder enough time to block the second attack for him.
“What are you doing? After you kill him, who would teach us the holy language?”
The elder raged.
“We cannot learn the holy language!”
The chieftain was a conservative man. He felt that it was a great taboo for their tribesmen to learn this, and it would bring about calamity.
“You are saying this again. Can’t you understand my painstaking effort?”
The elder was unhappy.
“If we don’t learn, we won’t improve. Could it be that you want our tribe to hunt forever for a living? If we learn the holy language, we might even have a chance to become gods!”
These words of the elder were a little blasphemous and sounded a little like he was indulging in fantasy. It was also tinged with romance and ambition.
It was a pity there was no one who understood him.
“You are profaning our history!’
The chieftain roared as though he was looking at a traitor.
“I will tell you honestly. I suspect that he might be a descendant of the gods!”
The elder coldly snorted.
Upon hearing the word ‘gods’, the chieftain, who was a tall, thick, and muscular individual, suddenly shivered in fright.
Because their ancestors said that it was the gods who created them.
Upon thinking of this, the chieftain subconsciously attacked again, wanting to kill Sun Mo.
Bang!
The elder blocked him.
“You can kill him, but you have to wait until after I master the sacred language.”
The elder stated his final bottom line.
The chieftain hesitated.
“How’s the battle situation? Have all the invaders been killed?”
The elder changed the topic.
“There are too many invaders, and they are all very powerful. I took the chance to kill some when they were fighting among themselves. But even so, the remaining ones are extremely powerful.”
The chieftain inhaled deeply. “We have to use the sacred weapon.”
“It has already reached such a step?”
The elder’s expression grew heavy.
“Prepare the activation ceremony!”
The chieftain came here because he wanted to inform the elder that the situation was going badly for them. Besides, this was something they had both discussed previously. It was just that he didn’t expect that the elder would actually allow an invader to casually touch and fiddle with these saint weapons.
“It seems that we can only do this.”
The elder sighed.
