Is this list of materials in Chapter 62 for real?
Is this list of materials in Chapter 62 for real?
Dead silence.
An even more profound and utter silence enveloped the entire round table conference hall.
If the madness of the "Troy Probe" project had merely shocked the three, then this bizarre list of materials now plunged them into deep, incomprehensible bewilderment.
"Dawn—Echoes—A Lament?"
Su Muqiu's rationality seemed to have been completely undermined at this moment. She adjusted her frameless glasses and tried to analyze the vocabulary using logic she could understand, but ultimately failed.
She took a deep breath, breaking the silence, her voice tinged with difficulty: "Mr. Lu, if I may be so bold—these things seem to exist only in poetry or legends. They are metaphysical concepts, without any tangible form. How are we supposed to collect them?"
Leander nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, her beautiful face filled with confusion.
As the high priestess of the Moon Whisper Clan, she was no stranger to these mythological terms; similar metaphors were found throughout the clan's epics.
But how can a metaphor be used as material?
This is like telling you that to build a ship you need "the sigh of the sea breeze" and "the embrace of the moonlight"—it's completely illogical.
“Yes, Mr. Administrator,” Leander whispered in agreement. “The first tear when the World Tree withers—the World Tree doesn’t actually shed tears. It’s just a rhetorical device in our texts to describe its loss of vitality.”
Even the usually enthusiastic Qin Shiyue frowned and fell silent.
He stared intently at the list, his brain working at an unprecedented speed.
The gentleman's plan would never have such an unenforceable step.
This list may seem absurd, but it must have a deeper meaning behind it.
Rule fragments — Rules —
A New Era — Data —
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through Qin Shiyue's mind, cleaving through all the fog!
His eyes suddenly flashed with a terrifying light, and his breathing became rapid.
"I understand, sir! I understand!"
Qin Shiyue suddenly stood up, so excited that his chair slid far backward.
Su Muqiu and Leandera were both startled by his sudden action and looked at him as if he were crazy.
Lu Yuan raised his eyelids with interest, signaling him to continue.
"These are not objects! They are not tangible entities!" Qin Shiyue's voice trembled slightly with excitement. "They are the imprints of laws! The crystallization of the world's memory!"
He held up his finger and pointed to the third item on the list.
"[The echo of the last battle cry on the ancient battlefield a thousand years ago]! This doesn't refer to recording a sound!"
"A war so brutal it will be etched in history, the indomitable will and overwhelming fighting spirit unleashed by its participants in their final moments—this extreme emotional energy will not dissipate with time! Like radiation, it will permeate that land, accumulating year after year, ultimately combining with the world's rules of that space to form a unique imprint of law!"
Qin Shi became more and more excited as he spoke, and his thoughts became clearer and clearer.
"In the old era, we might not have been able to perceive or utilize it. But in the new era," in this world where everything is digitized, these originally intangible concepts have certainly been given data entities by the system!
"They might exist as a ore imbued with ferocious battle intent, or as a cursed piece of equipment that automatically attacks anyone who enters its territory, or even as a key item to trigger a hidden epic quest! But whatever the case, they definitely exist! They are fixed in a specific area of the world!"
After hearing Qin Shiyue's interpretation, which could be described as "Dihua" (a derogatory term for a derogatory term for a derogatory term), Su Muqiu and Leander were both stunned.
They pondered these words carefully, and the more they thought about them, the more they felt that they made a lot of sense.
Lu Yuan clapped lazily.
"Finally, someone who understands." He gave Qin Shiyue an approving look. "Well summarized."
He leaned back in his chair and added, "The world is like a giant server, and any event strong enough will leave a record in the server log. Over time, this record, through continuous self-circulation and energy accumulation, becomes a unique 'data crystallization.' That's what I need."
Upon receiving confirmation from Lu Yuan himself, Qin Shiyue blushed with excitement and bowed deeply once more: "Sir, your wisdom is profound; we are but fools!"
Su Muqiu finally understood.
She looked at the list, her eyes no longer filled with confusion, but with seriousness.
"I understand. In other words, each name on this list corresponds to a real-world location or item that governs a specific set of laws," she quickly analyzed. "However, finding them is like searching for a needle in a haystack."
The list includes hundreds of materials from all over the world: the deep sea, volcanoes, ancient battlefields, and ancient ruins.
Some place names even exist only in mythology, and their exact locations cannot be determined.
"Looking for a needle in a haystack?" Lu Yuan smiled and shook his head. "No, it's like following a map to find a horse."
He slowly stood up: "These things are scattered all over the world; there are many places I'm too lazy to even look for. How long would it take for just a few of us to find them?"
He glanced around, his gaze finally settling on the center of the conference hall, a familiar smile playing on his lips—a smile that Qin Shiyue understood instantly.
"So, it's time to get the whole world moving."
"Xiaoya," Lu Yuan commanded into the air, "Connect to the Order."
"I'm going to launch a global treasure hunt game."
