Unless the gods descended again, it would be impossible to awaken the gods' will and obtain the real gods. However, Qin Xuan did not need the gods to "come alive".
"Since this is the case, I will give you a brand new body."
So-called, death and rebirth are important propositions in the earth mythology system. In the early evolution mentioned in myths from all over the world, the Earth Mother Goddess and dragons and snakes are often the main subjects of the image of the cycle of life and death. They are the embodiment of the power of the earth and the embodiment of the endless flow of natural phenomena. Production and reproduction, the inheritance of the mother's business, the alternation of the four seasons, and the revival of dead trees are all manifestations of rebirth and the main theme of all things, until they were replaced by the Heavenly Father God (that is, the transition of civilization from matriarchal clan to patriarchal clan) and were relegated to a lower status or even the position of evil villains.
The Egyptian mythology that links the concepts of life and death with the rising and falling of the sun is only a feature of some local myths.
What Qin Xuan wanted to use was the "dragon", an image that did not appear in ancient Egyptian mythology, to give Osiris the power to incarnate into a new body. This way, it would be easier to control just in case. As for Osiris, his original human form was more suitable for a vest, but there was no need to pretend to be a god, and Qin Xuan did not have this need. In addition, as a symbol of rebirth, the dragon would not conflict with Osiris in essence.
Thus, when Osiris absorbed the essence of life to further improve his regenerative power, more mud poured in and began to forcibly give the assembled spiritual being a large-scale flesh.
The deep red body appeared at the first moment, and then continued to extend and lengthen, forming a long oriental dragon snake trunk and four legs with claws, and then, a pair of wings with an extremely wide wingspan grew out.
In a short time, a winged dragon's body was built. After recovering and reborn in the Chaos Ocean, it flew out of the muddy ocean immediately. Its head had long and sharp horns, its terrifying mouth opened, and storms and thunders sounded out of thin air, showing its divine power to the empty depths of chaos.
Qin Xuan's real body was in the distance, evaluating the strength and use of this "Sky Dragon of Osiris".
----------
reality.
Qin Xuan brought Bai Dewei back to the ground of the underwater library. She tidied her clothes and waited for Qin Xuan's explanation. Almost at the same time, Chloe's voice sounded in his mental communication:
[Hey, hey, hey, big brother! How are you? The scene just now was so scary, and the communication was disconnected all of a sudden. I was shocked! ]
Chapter 199 Sorry, I voted
As the main body of the Osiris coffin was taken away, the lightning vortex in the deep space disappeared, and the huge empty room returned to darkness. Qin Xuanxian and Bai Dewei left here. Then a simple explanation was given.
"Things are a little complicated. Someone has prepared a divine body here, which is the spiritual body of a god. Considering that the planners may be magicians (alchemists) from the Age of Gods, it is understandable that they have a certain degree of understanding of the gods and the ability to plan."
As soon as Qin Xuan said this, Bai Dewei and Chloe, who was communicating with him through spirit, were shocked. "So you understand how troublesome this matter is, right? We can't guarantee that there is only this one divine body here. Without alerting the fourth-layer management system, we should check again on the third and fourth layers to make sure nothing is missed."
"As for the entrance on the first floor and the ordinary data room on the second floor, there won't be anything important. After checking, we immediately asked the team responsible for the external construction to start the equipment and move the entire underwater library away. They should be in place now and surveying the nearby ground veins."
Bai Dewei knew that this meant that he had to wait for the complete report to be compiled afterwards, because he had to wait until the secrets of the entire library were completely revealed. This was Qin Xuan's usual style, which meant that he already had a solution. "Are you going to mobilize the headquarters to concentrate on cracking the library's management authority?"
"almost."
After completing the exploration of the "ancient tomb", Qin Xuan prepared to close the "live broadcast".
[Wait a minute, big brother, you haven't told me what god it is! ]
'We'll talk about it later, or you can guess for yourself now. For example, there are elements related to this god in the 'pyramid' you live in.'
「Hehe, that’s an adult’s excuse for delaying. If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t tell me──」
Then, Qin Xuan seemed to hear Chloe's naughty tongue sticking out.
----------
After the second inspection, Qin Xuan brought Bai Dewei back to the ground. Since the construction team was already in place, this time they used the underground spiritual road temporarily built by their own association, which was much more comfortable and stable than the spatial passage of the tomb robbers.
In the distance, the alchemists of the Atlas Academy were divided into teams skillfully. The blue-haired Ratio Kurdris stood next to a tree-trunk-shaped device with many branches as a monitor and commander. It was a detection and command center machine dedicated to the earth vein construction system. In addition, with Kurdris's high-speed skeletal calculations, it could assign tasks to all alchemists in real time and make rapid adjustments based on the construction situation.
"How's the progress?"
Ratio reported in a voice without any emotion: "According to the feedback from split thinking, Team One has completed the external three-dimensional framework of the 'Alexandria Undersea Library';"
"Team No. 2, the results of the leyline survey are out, but we unexpectedly discovered that there is an unknown device connected to the bottom of the library and the volcano under the seabed. It will take more time than expected to dismantle and investigate. "
"Team No. 3, the mirror space generation device is ready, waiting for instructions at any time; Team No. 4..."
The alchemists of the Ayuan communicate with each other by split thinking and high-speed thinking, so the way of cooperation is also similar. For example, if normal people want to get to know each other, they need to have long-term contact and communication, but the people of the Ayuan do not need to do that. They directly use thinking to simulate the years of getting along and the language habits of each other, so they can get to know each other and cooperate efficiently in a short time.
Moreover, the time lag of alchemists' thinking is zero. In other words, if all thinking can be shared, all solutions can be completed from as many side personalities (n) as possible, and the effect is greater than multiplication (n to the power of n). For example, for Ayuan's lowest level of three-part split thinking, three to the power of three is twenty-seven, and four to the power of four is two hundred and fifty-six.
The system currently used by the engineering team is to connect the split thinking. That is, Ratio's No. 1 split thinking corresponds to the split thinking of several alchemists in team No. 1, No. 2 corresponds to No. 2... and so on. The thinking speed of the entire construction team has increased exponentially compared to the speed when each of them works alone.
After Qin Xuan had a brief exchange with Ratio, he did not disturb her anymore. Instead, he asked Bai Dewei to change back to Luvia's identity first and contact the General Affairs Department regarding the Edfelt family's joining the association.
He himself found Bazette and Gray who were still watching the archaeology duo.
"What happened to those two people?"
Bazette replied in a straight line, "Both are in good physical and mental condition. They show no signs of discomfort and have no intention of escaping."
"Who asked you this?" Qin Xuan curled his lips. "I asked about their attitude. I told them something before, but now do they have a clear answer? If they still don't wake up, they won't even get a share of the remaining soup from the Alexandria ruins, let alone further exploration."
"Yes...wait a moment," Bazett was about to respond when he received a call request from Karl Magriff.
"——Hello? Master Bazette, can you please give a message to your guild leader? We agree to the conditions!"
What a coincidence! I had originally wanted to listen to Karl Magriff's excuses, have a fight with him and extort some money from him, but he just happened to give in.
--------
"Huh? How did you agree to let that archaeology expert join the exploration team? That guy is an old fox," after hearing about the remains of the Age of Gods, Aozaki Touko ran over excitedly, only to be told by Qin Xuan that the position of "archaeology expert" had been taken by someone else.
Now she had to wait for those "second-hand goods" that had already been sold, and she couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, that person paid a heavy price." Qin Xuan had already arranged a formal forced cracking operation. Once the authority was obtained, it would be time for the formal comprehensive exploration team to be dispatched. "You should know what the modern magic department is. The future archaeology department will be like that."
"I'm afraid it's not Xu's empty promise, the usual practice of the Clock Tower: saying one thing in front of the eyes and another behind the back, or... did you seize something from him?" Orange narrowed her eyes and noticed a suitcase at Qin Xuan's feet.
"He will transfer elite personnel from the Archaeology Department to be stationed here permanently. Of course, this is secondary. The main thing is..."
Qin Xuan didn't keep the secret. He picked up the suitcase and opened it. "This is the supreme ceremonial dress of the Measstia family. Denial is unique."
The so-called "supreme ceremonial dress" refers to a special ceremonial dress that is qualified to be recognized as the symbol of the family even among the many collections of the twelve families that have produced many monarchs, or the famous families that are comparable to them. Similar to the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid in Kenneth's family.
Chapter 200: Bug Master's Script, but the High-end Version of the Age of Gods
"Shocked, he actually let you take this thing away?"
Orange also knew what the Supreme Ritual meant. "But the method to activate this ritual should be passed down from the Measstia family. Did he even tell you this?"
"Yes, the activation condition is blood, the blood of Karl Maglif himself."
Qin Xuan gently took out a long and narrow box, and after opening it, he could see a row of red blood in glass containers.
"There are quite a lot of reserves here. He must have prepared them before taking action. Maybe Karl Maglif anticipated what would happen to him. Even if he can't use these preparations, they can still play a role in the bargaining chip transaction."
After seeing so many chips being taken out by the Archaeology Department Monarch, Orange knew that the candidate had been decided. She could not count on going to the front line for exploration, so she sat down in the reclining chair and said, "Then the next step is to crack the ruins' management system, right? When will it start?"
“Well, it has already started.”
----------
The central room for theoretical and legal reactions.
Prometheus, Shion, Sakura and others operated the equipment and connected to the library ruins that had been transported using mirror space technology. The rational reaction already had the ability to operate any type of mirror space, so the same was true for the Alexandria Library that was installed.
[Establishing a channel with an unknown cluster operating device... Data updated, identification name: Fourth floor, management building]
[The channel is expanding, preparations for the invasion of the spirit particle revenge layer...]
[Invasion begins, highly intelligent entities are being eliminated, and active intelligence cores are being destroyed...]
[Warning! Encountered a large number of offensive intelligence trap programs——]
Shion commanded: "Invest all computing power and start the counterattack calculation."
Ying had never seen Lifa react to issue a warning, and couldn't help but feel worried, "Sister Shion, what on earth is this...?"
"It should be that the management of the library sneaked in any intruder from the outside world, like a hidden worm, and then used the method of releasing and self-replicating a huge amount of information to cause the system to crash. This is what modern people are familiar with as a computer virus. It should be that the technology of the Atlas Institute in the Age of Gods has reached this level."
"Although this level of output performance cannot match the rational reaction, as the management building backed by the library, there is still a lot of knowledge that can be used as 'intelligence data ammunition'. If there is no rational reaction, not only can any invader be easily eliminated, but a large number of invaders can even be retained as spiritual data bodies. If there is enough proactive intelligence, it can even counterattack and invade the reality of the surface."
In other words, with the rationale, these are impossible to achieve? Sakura finally understood what this meant.
Meanwhile, operations on Prometheus' side are still ongoing.
[Invasion progress has been restored, and the maximum intelligence density is being confirmed...]
[The invasion progress has risen to 80%, and the management building's counterattack function has been shut down...]
[A request from the management building for a link with the identification name 'Third Floor Forbidden Library·Grave' has been detected. Do you want to block it? ]
"Hmm?" Ziyuan suddenly thought of the information Qin Xuan brought back, which mentioned the investigation of the "Secret Room on the Third Floor", "——Intercept."
[Interception successful, continue to invade the remaining active functions of the management building...]
[Local anomaly occurred, additional active data counterattack detected... Self-offensive firewall activated, defense successful... Additional data has been destroyed...]
[Report: Intrusion progress 100%, all functions of the management building are shut down, and can be incorporated into our own operations after restart... Additional data has been backed up, do you want to view it? ]
Shion was not too worried about the success rate of the invasion of Lifa Reactions. There was a huge gap in performance between the seven weapons and other equipment of the Atlas Institute when they were used. There was no comparability, even the Age of Gods technology was no exception.
But this extra data that should not exist and even the library management building was deceived into giving it to her aroused her interest.
"Check."
The moment the command was issued, Prometheus presented a large amount of information.
"The Alchemist of the Age of Gods... Kurdris?"
Shion was surprised, for she was very familiar with this family name; it was one of the "Six Source" families of the current Atlas Academy. The younger generation's Sefer Kurdris was the heir to the family, and his sister Ratio was the representative of the alchemist team that had been cooperating with the association for three years.
"Notify Xuan that a meeting needs to be arranged...it's best to call Latio over as well."
"Okay," Sakura immediately began to confirm the itinerary of several people involved.
------------
At the impromptu meeting, Qin Xuan looked through the information of "God-Age Kurdris". This person's memory data was clearly visible, and his plans were all presented in front of several people.
As expected, Kordris was the so-called planner of the Alexandrian Library. The so-called coffin should have been prepared by Ptolemy I, who also had his own private plans, but let’s not talk about that for now - but the coffin was replaced by the god Kordris, and the body of Osiris was stuffed in it.
Originally, this library had a hidden purpose, which was the location of the tomb of the third-tier forbidden library. When the library was built, Kurdris, together with the magician Giz from the Wandering Sea and the immortal Mushiki from the Shenzhou Mountain Court, implemented the "God-eating Plan".
Huh? The immortals are here, and it's a combination of Chinese and Western styles?
While evaluating the impact of the plan that spanned three magic organizations, Qin Xuan read the plan content: the plan was code-named "ERGO", and the specific action was to insert the three divine bodies into the souls of the subjects through soul-level cutting surgery, and complete the subject's devouring and reincarnation of the divine bodies through an era (two thousand years).
The identity of the subject was... Alexander IV, son of Iskandar the Conqueror. This was also the motivation for Ptolemy I to participate in the construction of the experiment.
But this is not the end.
The three people from the Divine Age Atlas Institute, the Wandering Sea, and the Mountain Court all have different purposes in participating in this experiment. That is to say, when the results of the experiment come out, the three parties are likely to seize the experimental subjects.
This raises a question. Kiz of the Wandering Sea is a non-human, and Wuzhiqi is an immortal. Their lifespan and concept of time are different from those of ordinary people, and neither of them seems to be in a hurry.
But only Kurdris, as an alchemist, has the lifespan of an ordinary human being, and he will not live past two thousand years.
Then Kurdris came up with an idea, which was to upload all of his personality information, and when his descendants came to visit, he would use a virus to reversely invade and occupy their minds.
Chapter 201 BC Ancients Share Subspace Technology with You
"Latio," Qin Xuan asked Latio who was present, "Does your family have a proposition similar to the family's inheritance from generation to generation? Something like the Grand Order of the Clock Tower family."
"Theoretically, it's not allowed," Ratio shook his head and denied. "In the Atlas Academy, personal research is forbidden to be disclosed to others, even to future generations... But Ratio has heard about the secrets of Iskandar and Alexandria Library in his family, and Ratio's brother Sefer is keen on this and often investigates such legends..."
"It's all thanks to you all. If you hadn't discovered the underwater library so early, I'm afraid that Cypher would have been the first to discover this place."
Ratio couldn't help but sigh. As an alchemist, she had always viewed the world with a machine-like rationality, but she still had feelings for her family. If it weren't for the collective action of the association this time, which happened to eliminate the hidden danger, then her brother Sefer would probably have become a victim of the ancestor from the Age of Gods.
"So that's how it is. Although we can't pass on the research topic to future generations openly, there is still this roundabout way." Qin Xuan realized that this was essentially taking advantage of the gray area of Ayuan's rules, so he continued to look up information.
"As for the proposition that this Kurdris pursued throughout his life, it should be... avoiding the destruction of the world."
Unlike the occasional outlier among the magus community who wants to "save the world", avoiding the destruction of the world is a task that almost every alchemist in the Atlas Academy must set and complete alone.
The possibility of pan-human history is the greatest, and therefore the variables it faces are also the greatest. There are countless factors of destruction hidden in it.
A future where we sink into the glaciers, a future where the world warms up to the point of burning out, a future where volcanoes erupt in a chain, a future where a giant meteorite hits the earth and causes extinction, a future where fatal diseases spread and human civilization dies, a future where environmental pollution kills all species, a future where nuclear wars break out, a future where artificial intelligence and nanotechnology get out of control, a future where extraterrestrial life invades, a future where gamma-ray bursts burst...
The future of the "Land of Steel" that Qin Xuan had experienced in Gray's hometown was also one of the possibilities. And it was most likely the future that Zibia had calculated and intended to avoid.
This task was difficult at first glance, but at least seven of the alchemists in the A-yuan completed it. The result was seven weapons that could destroy the world.
Because everything has two sides, a means to avoid meteorite impacts can also be a means to actively guide meteorite impacts. This also makes the rumor that Atlas Academy "can destroy the world seven times" extremely ironic.
