Gwen, who was in Cecil's territory, did not know that My.
What did Miss Pony do after she left? All his attention was now on the Eternal Slate in front of him — or rather, some ancient information storage medium.
Amber stared curiously at the metal plate in Gwen's hand and muttered, "The shape is really different from the last one!"
Then, she muttered something else, "But then again, you used a piece of scrap metal to exchange for an Eternal Stone Tablet … Is that appropriate?"
"Its value depends on the person's needs. To us, it's just scrap metal because we have a bunch of the same things in our hands. We even have samples of the Gods, but to those who aren't us, it's a supernatural creation of the same value as the Eternal Slate," Gwen said without changing his expression.
Amber curled her lips. "You're better than Pitman at making things up."
Gwen just smiled and didn't say anything, but he felt that he was right. Was the flesh and blood of the gods not precious? Just a small piece of that thing and tossed it to the various churches would probably be able to make their brains bleed out. However, Tyre did not think that way. Those Deep Sea Harmony Gods could eat dozens of tons of godly corpses every time they threw a party.
He waved his hand and instructed Amber to watch from the side. "I'm going to try to communicate with this Eternal Slate. You stay by my side."
"Oh, okay. Speaking of which, I find that I have to watch over you every now and then," Amber replied. Then, she started to complain. "Every time I think of you crawling out of a grave, I feel like I'm guarding a coffin …"
Every time this guy worked, he would never stop talking nonsense.
Gwen ignored Amber's nagging. At this moment, he began to release his spiritual power, and the Eternal Slate in his hand produced a familiar resonance.
Along with the illusion of the stone slab heating up slightly, Gwen felt that his spirit had once again left his body. A sense of transcendence descended upon him. In this indescribable state, he suddenly felt some brief information appear in his mind...
He focused his mind to listen to the content of the message, but when the message appeared, he was stunned.
"… Don't indulge in this illusory night of tranquility … The night will eventually be broken …
"… Do not indulge in your warm cradle … The cradle will overturn one day …
"… Don't sleep in the shelter of the soul … Sooner or later, the shelter of the soul will become an unbreakable shackle …
"Depart, before the stars twinkle. Depart, before the long night ends …"
"If we don't hurry up, the day will come …"
After this poetic message ended, there was a long period of background noise, as well as an unbearable feeling of emptiness in the mind.
In this state of spiritual transcendence where he had no sense of up or down, Gawain's mind was still operating. He was stunned for a moment. Was it over just like that?
There was only one poem recorded in the second Eternal Stone Tablet?
What did this poem mean? Who left it behind? The Zenith Star Fleet that defeated the Gods back then? What did they mean by leaving this poem?
Could it be that it also reflected the artistic talent of the super-high-tech aliens?
Gwen's thoughts were scattered, but he quickly retracted them halfway. He knew that the truth was definitely not that simple. The Eternal Stone Tablets were not ordinary storage media. They also carried the secrets of the Gods, extraordinary powers, the Godslaying War Report, and a lot of other things that could change the course of humanity. Among all this incredible information, a poem suddenly appeared … This could not be a coincidence.
This poem should have a special meaning. Perhaps it was hinting at something.
Gwen carefully recalled what he had "heard" and "seen." From the poem, he could vaguely make some connections. Was this poem telling people not to indulge in a temporary but peaceful illusion? And between the lines, it was hinting that something would break this temporary peace. The cradle would be overturned, and the curtain of night would be broken … If it was connected to the real world, could it be referring to the periodic … demonic wave?
That temporary peace was the interval between the Demonic Wave? What about the cradle? Was it referring to the planet that humanity was currently on?
The author of the poem also mentioned shackles and soul protection … What did this mean? Soul protection … Sleeping in the soul protection, could it be related to the Eternal Sleepers?
But the person who left this poem should not know the Eternal Sleepers, because the birth of the Eternal Stone Tablets was even older than human history …
Moreover, the poem also mentioned "daytime". What does daytime mean? Was it another artistic way of saying the Demonic Wave? Then why was it called daytime?
Gwen's thoughts were running rapidly in this state of mental detachment. And when questions turned into conjectures, he realized that he still showed no signs of leaving this state of detachment. Could it be that the information recorded in the second Eternal Stone Tablet had not ended?
Just as this thought popped up in his mind, he suddenly felt that other information had appeared in his mind. The endless background noise suddenly disappeared, and in the endless darkness, light gradually emerged.
The light formed a picture. He saw a blue planet with a hint of green quietly floating in the boundless starry sky, and at the edge of this picture, there was an arc-shaped atmospheric storm that made people feel endless pressure slowly surging.
After being sluggish for a few seconds, Gwen realized that what he saw was the planet under his feet, and the arc-shaped atmospheric storm at the edge of the picture … was the "sun" that the planet revolved around, the gas giant planet!
After realizing this, his first thought was to see what was on the surface of the vibrant turquoise planet. How many continents did it have? How big was the ocean? Where were the Lolun Continent, Ansu, and Typhon on the planet? Where were the sirens on the planet? What was the location of the Sirens?
However, he soon realized that he could not control the perspective in front of him, and he vaguely realized that what he saw was not a real, real-time image of the planet. The information that emerged from the depths of his mind told him that this was just a simulated picture, and what the picture showed was the appearance of this planet tens of thousands or even millions of years ago …
Then he saw that the perspective moved uncontrollably, and the blue-green planet in the picture gradually zoomed in, and around the planet, flashing light spots and matching text symbols suddenly appeared.
They were words that were different from any of the current common languages in the world, but their meaning flowed into Gwen's mind at the same time as the words appeared. He saw that the light spots floating around the planet had names:
Radiant Station 1, Radiant Station 2 … Zenith Satellite Group … Firmament Station … Skybridge Base Station … Giant Planet Monitoring Station, First Star Bridge, Second Star Bridge …
These things appeared one by one, but then, one by one, they were dyed red, which might represent a malfunction or an offline state.
At first, there were only a few red dots, but they quickly enlarged in the whole field of vision. In the end, almost all the space stations went into a malfunction or offline state, and only the last few bright spots were still shining alone in space.
At this point, the information stored in the Eternal Slate really ended. After a familiar feeling of dizziness hit him, Gwen's mind quickly left the "detached" state. When the scene in front of him stabilized, he saw Amber's big face …
In fact, Gawain had long gotten used to the half-elf's antics. Now, he could completely ignore it. He casually waved his hand and pushed Amber to the side. Then, he began to ponder with a frown on his face.
He saw a lot of things from the last picture that appeared, and thought of a lot of things, and these things made it difficult for him to calm down for a long time …
There was really something in space, a huge amount of things!
The super civilization that left this world many years ago and sailed far away without any trace left a system of monitoring stations and management facilities in the sky above this planet, but with the passage of time, these monitoring stations and management facilities had malfunctioned and lost contact one by one. And the monitoring satellite that he attached himself to when he first crossed over … should be one of the last remaining devices that was still operating!
Were these devices still in the sky now? Gwen thought it was most likely still there.
Their communications systems may have been down, but there was a high probability that the orbital control system could last longer than the communications system. Perhaps there were indeed some space facilities that had crashed to the ground over the long years, but there must be something left behind. After all, the ordinary satellite he had attached himself to was still alive, and there was no reason for the larger space facilities that had a longer lifespan to all crash.
But it seemed that he could not see any of those things … Whether it was using magic like Eagle Eye or using purely optical telescopes, he could not see anyone's creation in space … Perhaps the stealth system of those space facilities was even more advanced than the orbit control system?
Gwen frowned and pondered. After he found that he had no clue, he sighed. He looked up and saw that Amber was still standing next to him. He was a little stunned. "Hey, you're still here?"
"Of course I'm here!" Amber put her hands on her waist. "You just pulled me away, did you just forget about it?"
"Ah … I didn't notice it just now." Gawain tapped his forehead, trying to get rid of the last bit of dizziness. He then stood up and stretched his arms. "How long have I been 'sleeping'?"
"Half an hour, but now you look like you haven't slept for three days." Amber pursed her lips. "What did you see? I know you can perceive a lot of strange things from some strange places …"
"What do you mean by that?" Gwen glanced at the half-elf. "Put this Eternal Slate together with the first one. As for what I saw … You won't understand even if I explain it to you. "
"Tsk, stingy," Hu Po muttered. Then, he put away the Eternal Slate while muttering, "Speaking of which, you're really letting me put away such a precious thing? Aren't you afraid that I'll secretly sell it?"
Gwen was happy when he heard that. "Sure, find someone who's willing to buy it and sell it. I guarantee that if you expose this thing, there will be twenty Knight Knights coming to kill you. I can't protect you by then."
