"What change?" Allen heard his curiosity.
Lucy's hand passed through the branches and leaves below the rose in the middle. "The Jano Crystal will respond according to a specific rule. Simply put, when they figure out their feedback mechanism, they can store information in the crystal and extract information through instructions. Crystals can be preserved for a long time, especially Jano Crystals. Thousands of years make no difference to them. So in the era of the Golden Rose, Jano Crystals were used in various fields, the most common of which was the information field … Ah. "
She suddenly let out a soft cry. It turned out that the tip of her finger had been pierced by the crystal, and a drop of blood hung on the thorn of the rose. The blood did not drip down, but seeped into the crystal. After the blood entered the crystal, the natural lines in the crystal actually reacted. Each crystal thread emitted a misty glow from the inside out. In an instant, the crystal threads in the crystal wall lit up one by one, from bottom to top, from the middle to both sides. Finally, the wall glowed brightly, illuminating the faces of everyone under the wall.
Lucy took two steps back and narrowed her eyes, "Looks like this crystal wall uses the genes of the Adahua Planet people as instructions …"
"It might be the genes of the royal family." Allen added.
At this moment, the girl on the crystal wall slowly opened her eyes. It was a dead object, so naturally, it wouldn't open and close its eyes. However, the crystal girl's eyelids could move. When they rose, it was as if a girl who had been sleeping for ten thousand years was gradually waking up. The girl's eyes were two balls of golden light. Two golden lights shot out from her eyes and quickly drew a rectangular pattern in the air. When the light connected, the space inside the rectangle had a sunken phenomenon. Then, like a piece of broken glass, the scene of the temple inside shattered, revealing a space of strange and motley colors.
"So it's a spatial folding door. This is the spatial technology of the Golden Rose era. Let's go and see where this door leads. "Lucy's face was filled with excitement, but she did not forget to hold the golden rose in her hand.
Allen reached out to grab her. Gojoseon unsheathed his sheath and smiled, "Now is not the time for ladies to go first. I'll scout the way."
He walked into the spatial door first, followed by Lucy and Edward, and finally Lola and Nairi.
When he passed through the Space Gate, it was a wonderful feeling. He felt like he was in a trance, as if he had just woken up from a long dream. When his feet touched the ground, Allen could see the floor beneath his feet light up. Then the light quickly split into several rays of light and spread out radially with him as the starting point. After the light reached a certain end point in the darkness, it rose from the ground into the air, then extended to both sides, forming a few pillars of light. Above the light pillar, tens of thousands of light rays spread out in succession. The light rays intertwined with each other to form a surface. Finally, the surface lit up one by one. When Nairi walked into this space, a hall made of pure crystal appeared in front of everyone.
The hall was huge and spacious. The dome of the hall was propped up by a huge crystal pillar that would require a dozen people to wrap their arms around it. In the middle of the hall was a crystal throne, and on the throne sat a corpse. Only bones were left of the corpse. Its empty eye sockets stared at the space in front of it, as if it was looking at a moment in the distant past through time. The corpse wore a gorgeous robe with a bright red base and adorned with crystals and gems. It was also holding a crystal plate in its hands. The pattern on the surface of the crystal plate was exactly the same as the crystal wall in the temple, like a miniature version of the crystal wall.
All the crystal threads in the crystal hall emitted a hazy glow, which made the light in the hall bright but not dazzling. Lucy walked to the side of the corpse, bowed slightly, and then reached out with both hands to gently take the crystal plate. With the experience of the crystal wall, she reached out to touch the rose bush at the center of the crystal plate. Unsurprisingly, her fingertips felt a slight pain. After a drop of blood was injected into the crystal plate, the girl on the crystal plate opened her eyes. This time, no light shot out, but the ground in front of the throne rose silently, stopping at Lucy's chest. There was a concave area on the crystal platform, the shape and size exactly the same as the crystal plate in Lucy's hands.
Lucy placed the crystal plate on the platform. As soon as the crystal plate was placed, a circle of light lit up and spread, extending from the crystal platform to the floor. Finally, the light in the entire hall flickered regularly. After the light flickered a few times, a soft light rose at the edge of the crystal platform. When Lucy reached out to touch the light, the different colors of the light made different sounds.
"What's this time?" Allen looked at the rays of light.
"This time, the command is obviously sound. Let me think..." Lucy reached out to touch the light, and a few ethereal and beautiful notes sounded in the hall, but there was no change. Her Royal Highness was not surprised at all. She played different notes, but without exception, they all ended in failure.
Only then did Lucy frown. "What could the password be?"
"Does the Rose Empress have any music that she likes?" Allen suddenly asked.
Lucy raised her head. Allen walked around the crystal platform as he said, "When we entered the city, we saw a statue of a woman, and in front of the temple, there was a hymn of the empress. Obviously, the builder of the city had sincere respect for the empress."
At this point, Allen's meaning could not be more obvious. Lucy thought hard. "I have read about the life of the Rose Empress in the royal library, but the historians did not mention that she liked music... Oh, could it be that?"
Lucy walked to the crystal platform again. "The empress herself did not have a special love for music, but in her life, she appeared in the royal theater once. It was her most beloved daughter, Princess Clavina, who put on a play at the Grand Theatre based on her own experiences. The theme song of that play was composed by Princess Clavina herself. The records say that our respected empress loved the song composed by the princess … What was the name of the song again... "
"The Song of the Rose!" Lucy's eyes lit up, and her fingers flicked nimbly in the rays of light. A melodious piece of music immediately sounded in the crystal hall. Even those who did not understand music theory could hear a beautiful young girl singing in the music.
After the song was played, the light in the corner behind the throne suddenly disappeared. Then, a figure walked out of the darkness. It was a tall man. He had a dignified face, and his red robe dragged on the ground. He was holding a crystal plate in his hand. Although they knew that it was an image of light, the scene of the man walking over was very real. Not only did Lola and Nairi assume an offensive posture, but even Allen's Gojoseon was slightly raised.
Lucy said softly, "Don't be nervous, that is just an image recorded in the Ya Nuo Crystal."
At this moment, the man in the red robe spoke. His voice was low and melodious, like the bass of a piano. "When you see this image, guest from your homeland, I'm afraid Taryn Aisha has already become the dust of history, right? Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the builder of Taryn Aisha, Commander Gertais. "
"This is a virtual image I recorded in the Ya Nuo Crystal. This crystal hall records all the information about Taryn Aisha, including what I think should be recorded. Guest from your homeland, you can ask any questions to extract any information in the crystal hall. "
Lucy nodded and threw out the first question. "Tell me, Commander Gertais. Why did you build Taryn Aisha, and why did you build it in the abyss of the mountain? "
After a slight pause, Gertais revealed a sad expression. He turned around gently, holding the crystal plate as if he was looking into the distance. "This is a heavy question, my friend. If possible, how I wish I could avoid this question, but you need to know the truth. We are traitors. Yes, we betrayed the great Rose Empress and chose to exile ourselves. "
"This matter must start with the Golden Tree Project …"
When Allen and the others entered the crystal hall, a low laugh sounded from the caravan on the temple square. In front of a few carriages, Sean and a few merchants were sitting in front of a brazier. The brazier was picked up from the ruins of a passing block. There was a thin layer of oil in the brazier. When it was placed in the fire, it would produce a blazing flame. However, the oil in the brazier did not decrease at all. It was unknown what material it was made of. Sean even joked that if he brought such a brazier to the imperial capital, he would be able to sell it for a lot of money.
Now, a few men were listening to Abel's story of wandering in the Land of Darkness. The youth picked interesting things to say, and when he was excited, he danced with joy, making Sean and the others laugh.
If it weren't for Allen telling them not to speak loudly, they would have laughed out loud. Not far away, Ian squatted on the ground and smoked a cigarette. The flame in his pipe flickered. This bit of light was truly insignificant, but when it fell into a pair of eyes, the flame was infinitely magnified, almost as dazzling as a sun. The owner of the eyes was squatting on the roof of an abandoned house. Not far away, a faint blue light floated past and shone on his body.
He looked like a small, skinny man with skin and bones all over his body. Apart from a pair of exceptionally round and large eyes, the rest of his body was thin. The dim light illuminated his ugly and deformed facial features. If the extreme beauty was indescribable in words, then the ugliness was the same. Where he should have had his own place had collapsed, and only two nostrils appeared on his face. His mouth was crooked and had no lips. When he opened his mouth, one could directly see the gums, as well as the few exceptionally sharp fangs of various sizes. His hands and feet were also deformed. Some of the knuckles on his hands and feet were thick and swollen, while others were small and thin.
A few loose strands of hair were stuck to his head, and the dirt on his body was constantly falling off because of his movements. He saw the flame in Ian's pipe, and the weak flame made his eyes moisten. He felt a burning sensation in his eyes, and he let out an indistinct sound that seemed to be cursing. Then, he nimbly leaped to another abandoned house next to him, and began to skim in the direction of the temple.
Behind him, thin and small figures continuously climbed up from the edge of the city. These figures were like ghosts in the dark, stealthily moving.
