"It turns out that they spared no expense in expending enormous manpower and resources to collect these deep-sea relics."

But what's the use of all these things?

Ye Tian closed his eyes, leaning against the cold alloy plate, but his mind was like a boiling pot of oil.

The scene I just saw with my X-ray vision, inside that secret vault compartment, is playing back repeatedly.

A metal sphere, with countless precision gears meshing and nesting together.

In his perspective, it forms a dizzyingly complex geometric shape.

It has no seams, it is a seamless whole, like a metal life that has grown naturally.

The broken columnar object, neither metal nor wood, had an uneven fracture, and the flowing golden patterns on its surface were as dull as solidified lightning.

Even through the thick shielding layer and the vague sense of distance, Ye Tian could sense that the thing once carried a certain historical significance.

"So what exactly is it?"

The dark, multifaceted crystals have ridges so sharp they can cut through light.

Its material and texture seem to share a similar origin with the black, plate-like object in the sealed bag in his hand!

There was also his own small container with a pulsating, eerie blue glow, inside which was a slowly rotating liquid nebula.

The black, plate-like object has a three-dimensional texture with a subtle shimmering effect inside.

They lie quietly in different places, kept and studied by different forces.

But the aura they exude, that sense of shared origin and resonance, is no coincidence!

These items are very likely to be different parts of the same series, or even different components of the same whole!

Like the components of a precision instrument.

The black plate-like object is likely the substrate, and the small container is the energy core.

Could that metal sphere be a balancer?

"Could this be Li Chunfeng's Celestial Zodiac Instrument?"

Ye Tian suddenly thought of something and abruptly opened his eyes.

It is said that Li Chunfeng's celestial globe was an improvement on the ancient celestial globe.

It can not only accurately predict the weather and weather, but also predict good and bad fortune. Some even say it can predict the future and calculate the fate of the Tang Dynasty and later generations.

The Tui Bei Tu, the first prophetic book in ancient China, which predicted major events more than two thousand years later, is said to have been completed with the help of the Hun Tian Huang Dao Yi (a type of celestial globe).

Because the Tui Bei Tu accurately predicted too many secrets, it was listed as a forbidden book by successive dynasties.

The version circulating secretly among the people now is only a revised version from more than a hundred years ago, and is not the complete version at all.

If this is indeed Li Chunfeng's Hun Tian Huang Dao Yi, once successfully assembled, it will become the most precious treasure of our time, surpassing all other rare treasures in the world!

However, based solely on these few fragments, it is not possible to confirm whether they are Li Chunfeng's Hun Tian Huang Dao Yi.

Although these fragments are indeed products of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the era of Li Chunfeng.

But Ye Tian needs more information, more physical fragments, and to piece them together before he can see the whole picture.

Only then can we know whether it is Li Chunfeng's Hun Tian Huang Dao Yi (a type of celestial globe instrument).

Moreover, there was something else that puzzled Ye Tian.

The stone pillars and buildings in the underwater ruins are historical relics from thousands of years ago.

Li Chunfeng lived just over a thousand years ago. How could his belongings be in underwater ruins?

The weariness in Ye Tian's eyes was instantly replaced by a sharp determination.

He needs to get to the bottom of this.

He propped himself up on the bed, walked to the small table, turned on the tap, and splashed the icy tap water hard on his face.

The water was icy cold, but it cleared my drowsy mind.

He looked up at his somewhat tired but still incredibly handsome face in the mirror.

He secretly made up his mind.

After resting, Ye Tian and Wang Yuyan returned to the temporary laboratory.

The commander had arrived there on time.

His face was even colder and harder than before, with a faint bluish-black tinge under his eyes.

Clearly, monitoring and waiting did not lead him to any valuable breakthroughs.

Have you thought it through?

He stared at Ye Tian, ​​getting straight to the point, his tone full of impatience as his patience was about to run out.

Ye Tian met his gaze without looking away.

"I've thought about this for a long time, Commander. My conclusion is that these two items in my possession, along with other similar items in your collection, are very likely part of a series."

The commander's eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly. He didn't speak, but instead stared at Ye Tian with his cold eyes, signaling him to continue.

"They are like different parts of a precision instrument."

Or to put it more vividly, it's like the various parts of an ancient astronomical instrument.

The plate-like object in our hand might be the base; that container might be the energy core.

I suspect that metal sphere in your warehouse is some kind of computing unit;

That severed column might be a positioning device; as for that crystal…”

He paused deliberately, "Perhaps it's the energy key to activate the device."

Ye Tian spoke slowly, but the commander's gaze suddenly sharpened, like a knife scraping across Ye Tian's face.

"How do you know what's stored in our secret vault?"

His voice was very low, carrying a sense of impending doom.

"Of course I saw it. I saw it immediately in the passageway last night."

Ye Tian smiled faintly and readily admitted it, only in a different phrasing:

"My eyes occasionally have a momentary X-ray vision under certain uncertain mental stimulation."

At that moment, I sensed that there was something in that storage point that shared the same origin as the items we had.

I saw it in that instant.

The commander clearly neither confirmed nor denied this, but instead of pursuing the specifics of how Ye Tian saw it, he continued to press:

"So what's your conclusion? What's the use of just knowing about homology?"

We are still unable to activate any of the components, and we cannot determine what effect they will have when combined.

We couldn't even find more parts, let alone safely assemble them!

"No, Commander, we lack more than just a way to combine units."

Ye Tian seized the opportunity and launched the hook he had been preparing for a long time.

"What we lack most is a map of the other components."

These components may contain information, but they are all incomplete.

Their original owners, or those who made them, must have left instructions.

This guidance can exist in any form.

He took a deep breath, his voice heavy with the weight of a resolute decision:

"I was conducting in-depth spectral scanning of the texture of the black plate-like objects, especially when discussing those unidentifiable substances with Ms. Wang."

Deep within my mind, due to extreme fatigue and the slight stimulation of similar objects, some extremely fragmented images flashed through my mind.

It's vague and fragmented, but it points to one concept—time series.

Wang Yuyan, standing to the side, showed a slightly surprised expression and frowned slightly, as if recalling the details of the analysis at that time.

Ye Tian continued, "The flow pattern of the internal texture of that plate-like object, and the faint resonance between it and the container, remind me of some ancient surveying tool."

It's not about surveying geography, but about surveying precise coordinates and time windows.
