Lin Xue came with Lin Feng's little girlfriend, Sally. She also brought along a black and swarthy disc.
In the lounge of the Shadow Fortress Command Headquarters, the missy pushed the two "things" in front of me with a proud expression. That proud look really made me want to add a tail to her butt.
"Blockhead! I found this about Sally's family! "
Lin Xue said to me with a proud tone after she pressed the confused Sally, who was suddenly brought to the heavily guarded command headquarters, onto a chair.
Although I felt that the information Lin Xue brought wasn't that important, I still cooperated with the girl in front of me and showed an interested expression. Don't even talk about a descendant of Atlantis, we still have a living fossil that has aged for hundreds of thousands of years lying in the research center behind us.
"Let's not talk about the fact that Sally has Atlantis blood. This was found by Visca's test." Just like every time she comes to cause trouble, Lin Xue grabbed the drink on my table and drank it all. Then, she wiped her lips and said, "I used all the resources I could use, and with the help of the intelligence department's agents, we almost reversed the history of Sally's family to the Neolithic Age …"
"Pfft!"
I spat out a mouthful of Master Kang iced black tea, "What have you been doing these past few days?"
Speaking of which, these past few days, Lin Xue really didn't appear in my sight. Other than following me to participate in two official events, the missy has been very mysterious recently. She announced that she was investigating Sally's family's secret, but now that I heard this chick talk about her results — — I really began to doubt her activities these past few days.
"I led a few Xi Ling mainframes and a group of agents to search the archives of more than 190 countries around the world. I rewrote the human genetic map, dealt with the sea mud in the Mariana Trench for a day, and dug for rocks in the basalt belt for two days. The last batch of probes just arrived from Guden Castle this morning. In order to find the missing parts of the ruins of Atlantis, we've almost dug all the way to the planet's core …"
Without waiting for her to finish, I almost ORT. What kind of ferocious movement ability is this! Little Xue, are you sure you're just investigating Sally's family history and not trying to change the origin of the species?
How ferocious must Sally's ancestor be to leave her family's ruins under Guden Castle?! If you want to catch a coolie who doesn't want to fork out money to satisfy your desire to dig a hole, then just say it!
Let me put it this way, if the coffee table in front of me wasn't made of mahogany, I would have already sent it flying!
I pretended to glare fiercely at the girl in front of me who was smiling wickedly at me. In the end, I chose to surrender. Even as my lover, Lin Xue never gave me peace of mind. I should have been aware of this a long time ago.
"And then, what did you discover?"
I tried my best to maintain a calm expression and put on a business-like expression to tease Lin Banxian, who had been waiting for a compliment ever since she came over. Before coming today, she definitely didn't use her ability to check on our progress. She still doesn't know that I already have a lot of information on Atlantis in my hands.
"Of course, Sally's family tree isn't that long. In the end, I had to use my ability to match her genetic map with an ancient sample and confirm the migration route of her ancestors in ancient times. It basically matches the route that we guessed based on Visca's records, which is the route that the survivors of Atlantis took after the catastrophe. But after all, it was something that happened hundreds of thousands of years ago. Even with the help of fossils, that period of history is useless. Actually, my biggest discovery is still this thing — — "
As Lin Xue said that, she picked up the black metal plate that she pushed in front of me from the table.
"No one knows when this thing appeared in the family's collection. Anyway, in the memory of Sally and her family, even in the earliest records of their family tree, this thing appeared. It is a relic from ancient times. Its history is so long that it can't be recorded in hieroglyphics. In Europe, it is mixed with a bunch of strange legends that are like black fairy tales. In the beginning, there was more than one of these things. But in the process of inheritance, many of them were lost. They disappeared in history along with the branches of the family. In the end, the only thing that could be found was this thing that had been preserved by the family for generations. It took me a lot of effort to get it. In the end, I even had to pretend to be a ghost to borrow it. Fortunately, Sally was the only qualified heir of her family in this generation. With her help, we can use this thing however we want … "
En, I can basically guess how you swindled this family treasure from the hands of the elders of the Sally Family, but can you please not say it in front of the person involved, Sally?
"An relic from hundreds of thousands of years ago. Even the descendants of Atlantis themselves have forgotten the meaning of this thing. Yet, they still preserved it until now. This can no longer be described as a miracle." I took the black metal plate from Lin Xue's hands and rubbed the intricate patterns on it.
This was a disc-shaped object that was no longer than the length of a palm. The thickness of the middle was about a centimeter, and the edges were slightly thin. It had a clear metallic texture, but I couldn't feel its weight when I held it in my hands. Other than the color of the black, there were no traces of time on this metal plate. Hundreds of thousands of years didn't corrode even the slightest pattern on its surface. Even the thinnest part of it …
"Ah, that's my hair."
The half-immortal classmate reached out to take a black filament from the plate and shouted.
I: "…"
Forget about the previous part, let's do it again. Speaking of which, Lin Xue came, and she brought Lin Feng's little girlfriend … Cough cough, did I quickly regress too much this time?
The black plate that Lin Xue brought, regardless of the material or the workmanship, showed a high level of technology. Even modern humans wouldn't be able to create something like this. Without a doubt, this was most likely the non-flammable trash that the Imperial Army threw away in the past.
"The elders of Sally's family called this plate 'Kanulanu'. This thing was definitely created by the Empire, but I tried it. My mental power and psionic energy were unable to activate this thing. There is also no manual for this type of equipment in the database. It is most likely an experimental product that the research team made. "
"What a strange name. What does it mean?"
This time, without waiting for Lin Xue's signal, Sally took the initiative to answer. She still used the stiff Chinese that she wasn't very proficient with and used a reserved tone. She also used a different pronunciation to correct Lin Xue's words, "It should be called 'Kanulanu'. It is a very ancient language that has long been lost. The elders in my family let me remember the only word that has been passed down to this day. It is' Kanulanu '. It refers to the light on the lighthouse that sailors see when they return home. "
Kanulanu, no matter which one it was, it was an abnormally painful way of pronouncing it. This name echoed in my mind a few times, and I felt that my trigeminal nerves were about to become knots. However, this wasn't something that was worth worrying about. After examining the plate that Lin Xue brought for a while, I still decided to tell a certain missy some bad news.
"Actually, recently, we have also discovered something regarding Atlantis."
At that moment, I told Lin Xue about Ares, including all the secrets of the Atlantis civilization that I obtained from her.
As expected, as soon as I finished speaking, Lin Xue was immediately dealt a blow.
"After so many days of hard work … I even went to the Mariana Trench …" Lin Xue's eyes were in a daze, and her expression was extremely tragic. "In the end, I didn't even get a single word of praise …"
My Young Miss, you accidentally blurted out your true feelings. You worked so hard all over the world just for a single word of praise from me?
Originally, I wanted to see Lin Xue's defeated expression in exchange for a sense of accomplishment. However, after seeing her wronged expression, my heart softened. No matter what, she was still my sister. As expected, when I bullied her, I would be the first to feel heartache. "Alright, alright. I didn't say that you worked so hard for the past few days for nothing. What Ares brought was only the experience of Atlantis after the destruction of Atlantis, but you found the history that continued on Earth after that. There is no overlap between the two. You did well."
This was a really clumsy way to remedy the situation, but it was especially effective on Lin Xue. Of course, it could also be due to her being naive. In any case, the missy was no longer depressed. "That's right. Don't you see who it is? Bring me to see that Ares. Perhaps he knows what this plate is for. En, call Sally along as well. No matter what, this can be considered half of her family's business. "
I thought for a moment. "Aren't you going to ask for Sally's opinion?"
Who was Lin Xue? Apart from her status as a missy, she was also a fierce person. She turned to the confused Sally and said, "I'm bringing you to meet your ancestors. Do you want to come?"
This was the first time I realized that some things could be so fierce just by changing the way you put it!
Due to losing control of his emotions not long ago, Ares was forced to hibernate for a while. However, when Lin Xue and I arrived at the special ward set up in the research center, he had already regained his composure. He was sitting quietly on the bed beside the medical cabin. He was straight and meticulous, just like a soldier on standby.
Regardless of how the story of Atlantis had been distorted over the past hundreds of thousands of years, the true Olympian "Gods" were all outstanding warriors created by the Empire. This was vividly reflected in Ares.
"It seems that you have calmed down."
I greeted Ares. He immediately jumped off the bed and prostrated on the ground. "Lord, please allow me to return to the battlefield!"
"You will return to the battlefield, but first, let us find the world where you fell. Do you know what this is? "
I took out the metal disk with a funny name that Lin Xue had brought. Ares' eyes were instantly attracted to it. After a long time, he exclaimed in a low voice, "Kanarlanu?! Where did you get it from? "
"This little girl's possession." Lin Xue pointed at Sally, who was still in a daze as we pulled her around. "Sally, come here and greet your ancestor …"
Lass Xue, can you not be so fierce?
"Hm?" Ares furrowed his brows and stared at Sally. The latter immediately shrank back a little as she was stared at by a 2.5 meters tall giant. But somehow, she was only afraid for a moment before she bravely raised her head. Her eyes were filled with confusion, but she didn't avoid Ares' eyes at all.
The Nordic man and the mixed-blood girl stared at each other for a full two minutes in a strange atmosphere. Then, Ares suddenly revealed a satisfied smile. He laughed heartily and patted Sally's shoulder. "Haha, the child of Atlantis!"
Then, Lin Xue and I carried Sally to the medical cabin to treat her dislocated arm.
"Her body is a little weak, and she doesn't have any divine power. How can she fight like this?!" Ares muttered in dissatisfaction.
"Alright, your genes have been diluted for hundreds of thousands of years. I'm surprised that you can still recognize her."
"The Atlanteans will never mistake their own compatriots … But where did you find her? Could it be that there are other Sunscorching Obelisks that saved other Atlantean cities? "
I was stunned for a moment. Then, I exchanged a look with Lin Xue.
"Alright, I have to tell you sooner or later. This is Earth. Hm, you may not call it that, but this is the place where the Atlantean civilization was destroyed. After hundreds of thousands of years of vicissitudes, this place has ushered in a new era of human civilization. Your bloodline is almost extinct today. This girl named Sally is one of the few remaining descendants of Atlantis. Welcome home, even though the certificate of ownership has been given to someone else."
I told Ares the history of Earth's evolution after the destruction of the Atlantean civilization without reservation. I expected him to be depressed and resentful, but in the end, the giant-like warrior only revealed a carefree smile. "I see. Motherland has been reborn. It's a good thing that the seed of life is still continuing. "
"Aren't you a little disappointed?" Lin Xue looked at Ares strangely. "The house is gone, the property rights are gone, and your child has been adopted into someone else's family. Aren't you going to ask for some compensation?"
"We are already the history of this planet," Ares said calmly. "The Atlanteans are never afraid to face their fate. We can rebuild our home. The evolution of species is an inevitable historical process. We will not rob our own offspring. "
"Alright, you will get a new home. At least we have public housing." In the end, I could only make this promise to the "God of War" whose thinking was a little out of this world.
"Now, let's talk about the function of this disk." Lin Xue pointed at the black metal disk. "I saw a new revelation just now. This thing is guiding the direction of Atlantis. However, it seems to be different from the Schilling equipment that I know."
"This is a compass that the gods specially made for us, the God's servants. It is not for the gods to use. It records the coordinates of Atlantis. It requires the pure bloodline of Atlantis to activate, "Ares said.
He bit his finger and smeared a little bit of blood that emitted a faint blue light on the center of the disk. Immediately, golden lines spread on the disk.
Warrior, you have left your homeworld. Immediately connect this beacon to a higher-level spatial positioning device in an activated state to enhance its performance. Repeat. Warrior, immediately head to the higher-level spatial positioning device and execute the return order to avoid being mistakenly identified as a defection. "" DNA contact detected, identifying unique identification code … AL-135, Ares, return to team immediately … Error, the coordinates of the First Fortress of Atlantis have not been found. Presence of cross-world interference. Warrior, immediately connect to the higher-level spatial positioning device and execute the return order to avoid being mistakenly identified as a defection.
A mechanical synthesized voice came from the disk. I immediately snapped my fingers. "Girl, you have made a great contribution this time. Now, it is the Space Administration's turn to be busy for a few days in vain."
"Ares, you will be able to meet your own people soon." I patted the giant warrior's elbow strenuously. Then, I made an announcement to the officers of the Space Administration who were online in the communication link. "Comrades, good news. The coordinates to the Fantasy Village have been found. Prepare the elite infantry. This is not a space battle, but I am afraid that we will have to fight with the army."
The efficiency of the Shiring Apostles was amazing. They could enter into a state of war mobilization at any time. A few minutes after I made the announcement, according to the updated information on Atlantis in the database, the relevant combat personnel had already completed their preparations. There was no need to prepare for war or call for war. When Lin Xue and I arrived outside the research center, hundreds of armored Scorpions and other soldiers had already formed a phalanx and lined up on the square, rushing towards the teleportation gate that led to the spaceport.
"Wow, wow, no matter how many times I see it, it's always so awesome."
Lin Xue rested her chin on my shoulder. When she spoke, she purposely blew air into my ears. Ever since she revealed her true feelings, this young lady who was clumsy in relationships but had a frank side was no longer stingy with such intimate actions.
"But if I could, I would rather bask in the sun every day, play with my daughter, and walk around with girls." As I spoke, I used my head to knock away the girl who was causing trouble. The latter did not hesitate to give me an inch punch. She deftly stood to the side and put on a serious expression. A few seconds later, the figures of Sandora and Hachi Yunzi who were hurrying over came into view. Lin Xue's ability was really useful when it came to seeking good fortune and avoiding calamity.
Sandora walked over quickly. "Ah Jun, I heard that you found the coordinates? How did you find it? "
"This thing." I took out the antique that was hundreds of thousands of years old. This thing was verified by its accurate identification system. If you didn't have a shelf life of at least a million years for a product from the Empire, you would be embarrassed to call yourself a domestic product. "Lin Xue found it."
The young lady immediately started to show off her results. Sandora revealed a surprised expression. "This is really an unexpected harvest. I thought that the Space Administration would need a few more days to make any progress. Ah Jun, we don't have time to make any strategic deployments. The remaining defensive forces of Atlantis shouldn't be able to last long under the invasion of the abyss. These elite ground troops must immediately enter the battle. "
I gave her a thumbs-up and a bright smile. "Don't worry. I didn't make any strategic deployments and I already drove these scorpions to the frontline."
Lin Xue said, "As expected, even a tactical idiot has its merits."
Would it kill you to speak less!?
