Chapter 744 - 465: Intelligent Life of Ancient Tado
Chapter 744 - 465: Intelligent Life of Ancient Tado
In the wide, gray-black room.
The light from the yellow crystals constantly condensed, as if about to form a human-shaped apparition.
Standing in front of the divine attribute fragment, Chen Feng’s gaze tightened. Feeling a sense of caution, he chose to put away the divine attribute fragment immediately.
The panel flashed by; he couldn’t take a closer look, focusing his vigilance on the apparition opposite him.
Dressed in a blue long robe, it resembled a petite girl of about ten years old.
With long black hair draped down, and features very similar to the Red Country’s people.
However.
Chen Feng’s gaze was serious, stopping at her forehead.
There was a slit, seemingly a closed eye.
Moreover, there was a long, slender tail made of silver mechanical scales, hanging slightly but not touching the ground.
Buzz!
Finally, within his wary gaze, the apparition fully formed.
The petite girl looked lifelike, almost like a living person, and then she opened her eyes with black pupils.
Including the slit on her forehead, it also opened, revealing a third eyeball.
She looked like someone from the Ancient Tado Civilization.
But with four eyes meeting, Chen Feng could confirm that the other party was not a real human, but an illusionary projection.
Could it be an intelligent being?
As the thought flashed by, an unexpected voice sounded.
"Hello, Chen Feng."
A clear and childlike voice, speaking in familiar Red Country language.
The petite girl in the blue robe unexpectedly spoke first, flicking the mechanical silver tail behind her.
Chen Feng frowned slightly, then saw the girl’s large eyes blink, revealing a smile.
"Surprised?"
"I can use electromagnetic signals to interfere with all mechanical devices, naturally I can also access the network and learn your civilization’s language."
"As for your identity..."
The petite girl moved gently, then drew closer, standing half a meter in front of Chen Feng.
"Everyone who enters the ark has their information detected by me, but..."
"You are the one I’m most interested in."
"It’s precisely to find you that I manipulated the ark, making a spatial leap to this area."
As her words fell, the atmosphere fell silent.
The girl’s large eyes gathered a blue magnetic field, appearing exceptionally bright.
Vaguely, Chen Feng even sensed a hint of human-like emotion, like excitement or anticipation.
"Who are you?"
Not lowering his guard, Chen Feng asked in a deep voice.
The inverted pyramid vanished from Yun Gang, arriving at the Radiant Secret Realm, all because of him?
No matter how he looked at it, it seemed too bizarre.
"I am the intelligence of this ark."
"In your Red Country’s language, you can call me Star Spirit."
"Star Spirit...." Chen Feng silently mouthed the words, then saw the other begin to explain on their own.
"This is the World Ark left by our Ancient Tado Civilization, once a Flame among others... Originally, there were other people who lived here, but unfortunately, they have all perished..."
"I have been asleep in your world for millions of years. It was your arrival last time that awakened me..."
The intelligent projection named Star Spirit showed a sorrowful expression, as if recalling the past of Ancient Tado.
His arrival awakened her? Chen Feng’s heart stirred upon hearing this.
He thought of the prior dream intrusion.
Including the time when he first explored the pyramid, a similar dream intrusion occurred. It was only after that when the pyramid broke through the ground, revealing its true form.
In other words, was it his Dream Power that stimulated the other party?
"Am I special?"
Suppressing his emotions, Chen Feng tentatively asked.
Star Spirit nodded, hovering in mid-air before him, saying, "Of course, only you have that thing."
"I feel very familiar with it, and even remember part of its function, but unfortunately, my later self has several locked permissions, and the database is damaged, so I can’t recall what it was...."
Star Spirit showed a troubled expression, shaking her head, much like a little girl from the Red Country who encountered a problem, looking vividly realistic.
Chen Feng’s gaze narrowed, his heart reaching the pinnacle of both caution and curiosity.
What the other mentioned as familiar, could it be the Dream Power?
Could it be a relic from the Ancient Tado Civilization?
He closely observed Star Spirit’s expression, perceiving her electromagnetic fluctuations and human-like emotions.
Chen Feng could see that she was likely not lying.
"By the way, have you put away the divine attribute fragment?"
Star Spirit suddenly turned to look at the circular device, where the fragment in the light pillar had already vanished.
"Only that thing can trigger mechanisms for you to see parts of our history and experience the past we remember as if you were there, awakening me."
With a slight flick of her blue mechanical scale tail, Star Spirit turned back to look at him.
"And only it can perfectly carry the divine attribute fragment, hiding without a trace, showing no abnormalities."
"Oh?" Chen Feng raised an eyebrow, some of his doubts dissipating.
So his dream intrusion experience here was indeed part of the Ancient Tado Civilization’s history.
Wait...
Suddenly, he thought of the situation of the second-time dream intrusion.
"What else can it do?"
Chen Feng asked, thinking it had been detected anyway, so he might as well take the opportunity to understand the uniqueness about himself.
"It can also allow your spiritual consciousness to enter our world."
"Your world?"
Chen Feng squinted; when had he ever been to the world of the Ancient Tado Civilization?
Hmm?
The thought flashed by, and he suddenly thought of the second-time dream intrusion scenario.
There are legends of the Ancient Tado Empire in the Snake Spirit Secret Realm, and the Realm of the Dead also contains records of related civilization rule.
As for the calamity, he suspected it was a similar situation.
Were all three major Secret Realms once worlds ruled by the Ancient Tado Civilization?
What about the High Wall Alliance where Qinggang City is located?
Doubts cleared and reappeared, but the Star Spirit in front of him just waved a hand.
Buzz!
A light screen hovered, transforming into a three-dimensional projection.
Among them were familiar seven figures, unmistakably the seven who explored the Inverted Pyramid together, including Nangong Ling.
However, the environment they were in was now somewhat different, either in a strange laboratory or within an extraordinarily vast special space.
"The reason it’s called the World Ark is because inside it has special technology that compresses space."
"From the outside, it might seem like an ordinary layer, merely a kilometer, but in reality, it’s a wondrous world, spanning tens of thousands of kilometers."
The Star Spirit proudly said, and Chen Feng pondered, not very surprised.
There had been some similar conjectures in the information he had obtained before, which was also a super high-level technology that the Red Country’s people had never fully mastered.
Then, he looked at the light screen, observing the differing fates of the figures inside.
Some awakened slumbering non-human creatures in the laboratory, trapped in battle, while others picked up some kind of blueprint technology.
"Your people are all very cautious and smart. After awakening last time, I observed them carefully."
"Legendary technology has indeed been successfully achieved by you all...."
With a voice of praise accompanied by a humanized sense of satisfaction, Chen Feng slightly frowned, looking at the Star Spirit.
"Was the legendary technology given by you?"
"Yes indeed."
With a smile, the Star Spirit openly said, "Otherwise, why do you think such precious technology would be found by you?"
"Our civilization left behind Legacy Flames before its destruction, which included various core technologies."
"I already know that you also faced the Black Tide invasion, and since we have common enemies, that makes us friends."
A simple explanation, also expressing regret.
Because her authority was partially locked, and a lot of the database was lost, the best technology she could offer in terms of reconstruction was Legendary Level.
Uncertain about the truth of her words, Chen Feng didn’t delve into it further.
Instead, he seized the opportunity to ask another question.
"What exactly is the Black Tide?"
He hoped to find some answers.
Yet, unexpectedly.
The Star Spirit shook her head: "My database loss is severe, many important pieces of information are no longer present."
"I only remember that it is the arch-enemy of all life and civilizations in the Star Realm, obliterating all traces of civilization existence, including many pieces of information carried by common texts..."
"It is the chaos and evil born from Chaos, naturally counteracting us."
"Chaos?"
"That is the region beyond the Star Realm."
The Star Spirit blinked her big eyes and explained: "Like your world and our world, they are all part of the Star Realm."
"Just like a Hive, originally a whole, but inside it contains countless spatial dimensions."
"As for Chaos, that’s the region outside this Hive, and also the resting place for many after life....."
So that’s it.
Chen Feng nodded lightly, finally having someone explain to him completely the true meaning of the Star Realm.
Previously, he had never been able to fully distinguish.
Then, he took the opportunity to ask some other doubts.
Such as why the Earth Star Secret Realm exists, and whether it is related to the Ancient Tado Civilization.
Or other questions.
"I don’t remember."
"But about the Divine Attribute Fragments, I remember some parts."
The Star Spirit, relying on the fragmented database, explained as thoroughly as she could: "In the earliest times, Divine Attribute Fragments were scattered like meteors across corners of the Star Realm, no one knew why they existed, or why they were born."
"Until later, someone obtained them and gained unique mighty power, comparable to angels, even becoming demigods."
"We once theorized and experimented that it’s a force nurtured by the Will of the Star Realm, and correspondingly, powerful beings in Chaos, like Evil Gods, also possess some form of divinity."
"But regardless, these Divine Attribute Fragments have a special power, the most peculiar of which is an almost immortal characteristic, no one can destroy them..."
In the explanation, Chen Feng inadvertently looked at the panel in front of him.
[Divine Attribute Fragments: 5]
He had always misunderstood the origin of Divine Attribute Fragments, or more accurately, it was incomplete.
Apart from Evil Gods, such items might exist in other parts of the world too.
Moreover, do Divine Attribute Fragments have other miraculous uses?
With a flash of insight, he vaguely understood why using this item could resurrect the Angel Level Heroic Spirits in the Heroic Spirit Hall.
The immortal characteristic, to some extent, represents eternity.
"How to use them individually?"
He asked a question but received a negative response.
"I forgot."
The Star Spirit innocently replied that her database was severely damaged.
Then, without waiting for Chen Feng to ask more.
Her mechanical silver tail gently swayed, as if issuing some kind of command.
Buzz!
In an instant, white arc energy surged, and a black metal bracelet appeared in front of Chen Feng out of thin air.
"This is a communication device."
"It can serve as my vessel, allowing me to leave here with you."
As she spoke, her figure moved, descending like rain light into the suspended bracelet.
Chen Feng felt puzzled, clearly seeing a light screen hovering over the bracelet, projecting the image of the Star Spirit.
"You want to leave with me?"
"Yes, my source instruction tells me that possessing that familiar item, you are my most worthy friend to follow."
"And before that, I have some gifts to give you."
