Act 29 Necessary Justice(1/2)
Along the way, they have seen various creatures contaminated by dragon blood. This sea area is restricted by the bloody and violent rules of the dragon clan. Every creature here is half dragon, including themselves.
"That embryo should be in the polar abyss below, and it is an extremely powerful ancient species. During the incubation process, it continuously releases secretions rich in genetic information. The secretions attract various marine creatures, and then rewrite the
Their genes have mutated them into dragon subspecies." Chu Zihang said, "We have entered the territory of that ancient dragon."
"I think they are close to the Divine Burial Hall, and the video information has been sent to them," Yuan Zhisheng said.
"I've seen it, it's really a miracle in the world." Tachibana Masamune sighed, "There is no doubt that something is nourishing that sea area, not the embryo, but the corpse of the god. Success is not far ahead. From the burial place of the god
If the world is completely wiped out, the Sheqi family will not need to preserve the remains of the god."
"Dad, I have been thinking these days, in order to live a peaceful life, we must master the greatest violence, right?" Yuan Zhisheng was silent for a few seconds and asked this seemingly completely irrelevant question.
"Are you suspicious?" Tachibana Masamune asked.
"I can't say I doubt it, but I'm not completely sure yet. Blowing up the Divine Burial Hall and ending the monsters will cost a lot of blood. I don't know if it's worth it. Maybe we want to use violence in exchange for peace, but when we master
The greatest violence, we become the ones who deserve to be wiped out." Yuan Zhisheng said softly, "Dad, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Not everything that is right in this world is just, and not everything that is just is necessarily right." Tachibana Masamune said, "Children, have you ever heard of a sophistical proposition?"
"Where the railway bifurcates, there are warning signs on one side of the track because the train will pass here, but there are no warning signs on the abandoned track on the other side. Now the train is coming, you stand on the side of the fork, and the train is going to pass.
There are a hundred kids playing on the abandoned railroad tracks, completely ignoring the warning signs, and there's a lone kid playing on the abandoned railroad tracks because he obeys the rules."
"You can pull the switch, but do you pull the switch? If you don't pull the switch, then a hundred children will die, which are a hundred disobedient children; if you pull the switch, the train will go from that side of the track.
If you pass it, you will only run over one child, but it will be an obedient child."
"Children, can you pull the trigger?"
Yuan Zhisheng was stunned. He couldn't answer this question. This is a damn sophistry. Is it more important to be obedient or to live? If the problem is not changed, what will happen to the sadness of the parents of a hundred children when they come to the scene?
Face? Is it because they are a group of disobedient children that they deserve to die?
But if he pulled the switch, how could he bear to let that lonely, obedient child die? He had done nothing wrong, and he might have pointed at the warning sign to remind everyone not to get close to the railroad tracks over there... How could he let that innocent child go?
What about death?
"The time is over. When you were thinking about whether to pull the trigger, the hundred children were already dead." Tachibana Masamune said calmly, "You didn't make a choice, you just watched everything happen."
"Dad, if it were you, what would you choose?" Yuan Zhi asked hoarsely. He felt that he did not have the power to decide life and death for others.
"I will pull the trigger. Although I kill one child, I save a hundred. In this way, I am the sin-eater. I do the right thing, but do evil. I eat the sin, so
Others can be kind and innocent."
"So I'm sure." Tachibana Masamune said slowly, "If my decision is wrong, I will bear the responsibility alone. You don't have to think too much, child. Even if it is a sin, it is also my sin. You have been a child since you were a child.
A very kind child, I know you just can’t bear my loneliness.”
"How can the head of the eight Sheqi families be lonely? There are many people surrounding you, and they are proud to be scolded by you."
"A warrior will not feel lonely just because hounds surround his horse. The only thing that can make a warrior feel less lonely is another warrior."
"But Dad, not everyone is as ambitious as you and yearns for some great goal. Some people have exhausted all their strength just by living."
"Actually, I'm just a hound in front of your horse, dad. I just want to leave you and go to a distant place."
Yuan Zhisheng hung up the phone and put on the headphones again.
…
…
The rock formations below seemed to have been split open by an incomparable giant weapon, leaving scars thousands of miles long and flowing out golden blood.
"The external water temperature is 224 degrees." Chu Zihang said, "Although there is a heat insulation layer, we may not be able to bear it if we continue to be close to the surface of the magma."
"It's better to take a sauna now. When the temperature heats up, we'll start roasting suckling pig." Lu Mingfei wiped away the sweat on his forehead.
The scene in the cockpit was a bit chaotic. The Caesar team was almost naked. Everyone was sweating profusely, and their buttocks seemed to have been burned and stuck to the seats.
But Chu Zihang still wore his belt and the long knife.
"What is that..." Caesar muttered.
A huge tower! It stands on a gentle slope next to the crack in the ground. The tide of magma rises and falls not far from it. The dark tower body is reflected, and the tower body looks like an iron tire that is about to melt.
"That cannot be human," said Caesar hoarsely.
"Impossible." Chu Zihang said, "It is absolutely impossible for humans to build such a giant tower in the deep sea of 8,600 meters."
"A city of dragons?"
As the Diriast moved forward, a majestic city appeared at the end of the field of vision, looking like the Kingdom of God!
After crossing an undersea mountain ridge, the ancient city below spreads out like a picture scroll.
Chu Zihang made a sketch on paper and drew a map of the city. The layout of the city can be vaguely seen. The vertical and horizontal avenues divided the city into different districts. In the center of the ruins is a circular square like the ancient Roman Colosseum.
It is the starting point, and the four imperial roads lead to the southeast, northwest and northwest.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In the center of the square stands the huge tower that was originally discovered. The tower has complex relief patterns, and the top of the tower has sharp spikes that are tens of meters long.
There are similar spikes on the tops of other buildings. Looking out, there are dense spikes below, like thorn bushes of pig iron.
At this point in the painting, Chu Zihang suddenly stopped writing.
"What did you find?" Caesar asked.
"This city has an obvious trunk and roads, with a clear layout, and there are candles holding torches in the sacrificial platform." Chu Zihang said in a low voice, "This shows that this city was probably originally built on land.
It sank into the abyss for some reason."
"I'm not surprised that a city sank to the bottom of the sea. After all, in ancient Greek mythology, Plato also described a city that was swallowed up by a great flood and sunk to the bottom of the sea, Atlantis." Chu Zihang continued, "But here
It is an abyss of more than 8,000 meters. What kind of power can sink a great city to such a deep seabed? Moreover, the Atlantis depicted in it is already a ruined city, with no ruins or walls intact, but this
The integrity of the city seems to be quite high.”
"Especially that weird tower." Chu Zihang said, "It was built next to magma and soaked in water with extremely high salinity all year round, but it is as clean as new. There should be no such metal in the world, and those micro-metals
Plants cover the entire city, but only bypass the statue. This cannot even be explained scientifically."
Caesar piloted the Diriaste to cruise above the ancient city. "The oxygen reserve is still sufficient. We map the city as much as possible, and then descend to the building to use the robotic arm to take some samples."
"But where is the main entrance of this city? We don't even know where the front is." He frowned slightly.
"You can tell by that tower." Chu Zihang looked at the huge black tower and said, "The entire city is built around it, so the center of the city's front should be on the straight line extending from its midpoint.
Visual inspection is right under our feet, at three o'clock."
Caesar looked down in the direction that Chu Zihang guessed, and then he was stunned. The coercion exploded in his mind. The stern and ancient feeling made him almost breathless, because he saw an extremely familiar building.
architecture.
The building stood at their feet. The structure was quite simple. It was supported by two thick pillars, Kasagi and Shimagi. There was also a tunnel inserted between the two pillars. The white rope swayed with the ups and downs of the sea water. The appearance looked like
A torii.
"Call Xumizuo, call Xumizuo." He connected to Yuan Zhisheng's channel, "Did you see it? Did you see it?"
"We have seen that Norma and Kaguya are saving and analyzing the videos and pictures you sent back. What you have to do now is to control the camera to point in different directions. Every second of the video you take is priceless. This
This is the first time we have directly observed the ancient dragon city." Yuan Zhisheng said.
In a few seconds, the photo was transmitted to the central control room of the headquarters and displayed on the big screen.
Manstein stared at the photos on the big screen in trance, and his face suddenly changed, "A door... a torii is a kind of door! Hell, they really saw the door underwater!"
Huge fear exploded in Schneider's heart.
Yes, the Torii is actually a gate, but like the Arc de Triomphe, it is a symbolic gate and is not connected to the wall, but it is indeed a gate because it distinguishes between inside and outside!
They were immersed in the amazing discovery and forgot about the door. Everything went smoothly, allowing them to relax their vigilance a little.
The story of eleven years ago is being replayed. Dive down, find the door, and move towards the door... The video shows that the Diliest is heading straight towards the torii. In Schneider's eyes, the strange building immediately
It turned into a huge twisted mouth, trying to swallow everything up.
"Don't get close, don't get close! Return! Return!" He shouted uncontrollably. The imprint on his spirit eleven years ago was too deep. At this moment, he couldn't control himself at all. "Driaste! Did you hear that?"
Return immediately! Xumizuo, recover them! As the person in charge of the mission, I order you to recover them quickly!"
No one answered, the communication channel was eerily silent, Minamoto didn't speak, the Diriast made no movement, and even the Japanese branch's Kaguya Princess system didn't respond.
"Report to Professor Schneider, the Kazuki system and I disconnected all connections five seconds ago. All contact with the Japanese branch and the Diriast was interrupted. I am trying to repair it, but the Kazuki system is not responding.
"Norma's voice echoed in the central control room, and Schneider watched in shock as the light spot in the Sea of Japan on the big screen went out.
"Damn it!" He punched the table, "What the hell are the people in the Japanese branch doing!"
"Special situation detected, ev system is being started..."
"What do you mean?" Professor Schneider looked at the transparent girl in the air, "Who are you?"
"I'm EV." She floated in the center of the big screen, "Long time no see, Professor Schneider."
…
…
On the Xumizuo, the icy sea breeze blew the windbreaker of Yuan Zhisheng. His face showed an unprecedented hardness. Crows and Yaksha were sent to their respective positions to make final preparations. There was only one person left beside him.
