This was a small contact point set up by the special ability organization in the Sahara Desert. From the outside, it looked like an inconspicuous desert hotel, specially for those who came to explore or travel in this barren land to rest their feet and think about returning quickly. It was obvious that the nearby ruins with no special characteristics had not been developed, so it was difficult to get supplies here. It was impossible for many tourists to patronize this place. Those unlucky teams that crossed the desert road would not be interested in coming here again after being ripped off by this small hotel. In fact, this was exactly what the special ability organization hoped for. They needed a contact point disguised as a desert hotel, but they didn't need this contact point to become a thriving international hotel.
Only at certain times, my extremely pure sister wouldn't doubt why a desert hotel that no one visited all year round could persist until now. And it seemed that the situation of this hotel was quite good.
I suddenly felt that these guys in the special ability group were simply born schemers. They were much better at setting traps than me.
In a small hidden room, a few of us special people were holding a criticism and education meeting. The participants included me, Sandora, Pandora, Sicarro, and Lin Xue. Of course, the initiator and educator of this meeting was me, and Lin Xue was the one being educated. Among the others, Sandora had nothing to do and came to join in the fun. Pandora was the type that would follow me wherever I went. Sicarro was a bit special. This guy was too rampant in reselling pirated disks in K City. As a result, he was jointly wanted by the city's city management. In desperation, he came to the Sahara Desert with us with the thought that if he followed the leader, the market would definitely be there. In order to prevent this guy from developing the market among the members of the special ability group, I could only drag him in.
In response to my criticism, Lin Xue protested, "What do you mean by a trap? We just want to arrange a unique holiday for you. Since you let our organization do this kind of boring thing for you, then you have to accept our confidentiality measures. In addition, I think Sister Chen Qian is quite satisfied with this arrangement."
Since there were no outsiders here, the only normal human, Lin Xue, was also an insider, so Sandora didn't have to hide her identity. I heard her snort slightly, and the demeanor of a queen appeared. "Hmph, little girl, I hope you don't forget that the person sitting here is the head of the strongest Empire in the universe. Your little idea can't hide from my eyes."
After saying this, Sandora withdrew her imposing manner and continued to stuff pancakes and fruit pies into her mouth at an astonishing speed.
Forget it, I'm already used to it …
Lin Xue finally gave up on beating around the bush and said frankly, "Alright, I admit, we need your help this time — — Of course, in addition to this, a holiday in the desert is also a good pastime. I personally think that an old-fashioned guy like Chen Jun really needs something new …"
Can't this girl who doesn't match me say something that makes me happy?!
"Forget it, if you have something to say, just say it. Anyway, those commanders under me have nothing to do all day long."
I pulled out the fork that Sandora had in my mouth and said to Lin Xue.
Lin Xue took out a black object from her pocket and threw it in front of us.
"Ah?" Sandora and I expressed our doubts together.
This object was a regular oval with a smooth surface. It was completely black and had a hint of oily reflection. If you carefully feel it, you can smell a faint fragrance …
If my human memory didn't have a problem, this thing is the legendary — — chocolate bean!
"Ah — — sorry! I took the wrong one … "
Lin Xue finally realized her major mistake and immediately put the chocolate bean on the table into her pocket in embarrassment. Then she took out another black object from her other pocket.
I immediately became seriously interested in how this chick usually takes care of herself. Lin Xue, who looks like a lady from a noble family, can actually randomly place food. It's a miracle that she hasn't poisoned herself to death yet.
However, Sandora's attention was clearly not on Lin Xue. She was completely attracted by the diamond-shaped black crystal on the table.
"This is … This is a psionic core!"
Shandora cried out in surprise.
I, who had never seen Sandora lose her composure like this, immediately asked nervously, "Psionic core? What is that? "
Sandora carefully held the so-called psionic core in her hand and forcefully swallowed the spoon in her mouth. (I didn't make a mistake, it's a spoon. I said before that the Shiring Apostles can eat anything. Now that there are no outsiders, Sandora dares to put anything in her mouth …) Then she said, "It's a type of energy source, one of the most commonly used energy sources in the Xiling Empire. It's like a battery to you humans."
"Energy source?" Lin Xue's voice trembled. She looked at the black diamond-shaped crystal in Sandora's hand with a strange gaze, "This thing must contain a lot of energy, right?"
Energy source! What is the biggest headache for humans now? Energy source!
Not to mention the Xiling Empire's ultimate battleship, even a single shot from Pandora's psionic cannon would consume an astonishing amount of energy. However, such an astonishing amount of energy consumption was negligible to the Xiling Empire. Sandora had led her troops to fight in the other world for tens of thousands of years without facing any shortage of supplies. This was all due to the Xiling Empire's method of using energy that had already fused with the laws of the world.
Void energy, psionic energy system, universal energy annihilation system, dark energy recharge technology, or even creating a singularity and destroying it to absorb the terrifying energy produced when the universe was destroyed. To the Xiling Empire, energy source was the most worthless thing. If they needed it, they could even ignite the entire world to obtain energy!
Although the Empire had fallen and most of these heaven-defying things had become incomplete information, the Xiling Empire still possessed enough energy source technology to ignite a star!
However, I knew that Sandora would never allow humans to obtain such technology. Not only for the benefit of the Empire, but also for the sake of humanity.
As expected, Sandora immediately knew what Lin Xue was thinking. She gently tossed the black crystal in her hand and said, "Don't even think about using this energy source. With the current development speed of humanity, it will take at least a thousand years before you can safely and stably utilize psionic energy. If you have the qualifications to control this powerful energy source, the Empire will be more than happy to lend the human civilization a hand. As for now — Believe me, I'm doing this for your own good. Stay away from these dangerous things. Otherwise, you will use these things to destroy yourselves sooner or later. To be honest, I think it's a little too early for you to come into contact with nuclear energy … Right, where did you find this thing? Somewhere in the ruins? "
Lin Xue was a very smart girl with a very long-term vision. Otherwise, even as a psychic, she would not have such a high position in the organization. She nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder. I will keep this a secret. As for this thing, we found it in a strange tomb under the ruins. It seems to be a pyramid where an Egyptian pharaoh slept after his death. However, for some unknown reason, the pyramid had sunk into the ground. We found this thing in a tomb next to the main tomb. According to my guess, after the death of the Schilling warrior who accidentally came to Earth, the thing he brought with him was regarded as a divine item. We analyzed the hieroglyphs in the pyramid and found that the Egyptians called this stone 'star stone.' They believed that it was something that could grant the soul the power of resurrection. There are many runes on the walls of the tomb that are very similar to the patterns we saw in the Taklamakan ruins. That's why I thought of calling you here. But don't worry, no one in the organization knows your true identity. They only know that you are a few psychics who are free but are willing to help the organization."
"I should say that you are very lucky." Sandora crushed the black crystal in her hand. "Although this thing is a very common energy source for us, it is as common as a No.5 battery. However, to humans, this thing is more terrifying than a ton of uranium-235. If you were unlucky enough to activate it, the crystal without the energy control device could cause a disaster worse than a nuclear explosion. However, this crystal has obviously run out of energy. It is just a stone that looks good."
Hearing Sandora's introduction, Lin Xue suddenly asked nervously, "Wait, if this crystal didn't run out of energy, what would it look like?"
Pandora, who had been quietly listening to us, raised her right hand. Then, a dark blue translucent crystal surrounded by a faint purple electric current appeared in her palm.
"Ah!" Lin Xue screamed in shock. "There's one! There is such a crystal embedded in the top of the pharaoh's coffin! Oh no, they are preparing to study that thing today! "
