CIATB Chapter 169 The Heart of Heavenly Craftsmanship!
Chapter 169 The Heart of Heavenly Craftsmanship!
Beneath the abyss lies not a deathly silence.
The wind howled and whistled in my ears.
A fall from a height of several thousand meters is enough to crush an ordinary person's internal organs into a pulp.
Zhang Yan's eyes were slightly closed, and his expression was calm.
A thin film of airflow, barely perceptible to the naked eye, covered his body, completely isolating him from wind pressure powerful enough to tear steel apart.
He was not a fallen man who had stumbled into misfortune.
He is the king of this land, surveying his territory.
The lower you go, the more viscous the air becomes.
Dark blue arcs of electricity leaped wildly in the darkness; it was the rampage of highly pure ley line energy.
Due to the excessively high concentration, this energy has materialized into tangible lightning.
Any one of these processes is enough to instantly vaporize the crystallization of modern industry.
But at the moment.
These violent thunderbolts, upon touching Zhang Yan's fingertips, became as docile as fish returning to their nests.
They rushed into his pores and seeped into his bones and blood.
【Ding! 】
[High-purity psionic energy infusion in progress...]
[Body strength correction...]
[Neural reaction speed correction...]
The system's prompts were frequent and pleasant.
What is a death zone to outsiders is nothing more than Zhang Yan's private charging station.
The feeling of falling suddenly stopped.
Zhang Yan opened his eyes.
There was a solid surface beneath my feet.
Without any cushioning, he was firmly anchored to a suspended black metal platform.
The metal was entirely black, its surface so smooth it seemed to swallow even light, exuding a chilling, industrial beauty.
Zhang Yan raised his head.
Within sight, breathing stopped.
This is a spherical space with a diameter of more than ten kilometers.
The rocks and soil that should have been underground have all disappeared.
Instead, countless intricate and dazzling golden patterns are etched on the dome and walls, slowly flowing and shimmering.
That's a circuit.
It is also a blood vessel.
In the very center of the space, a blue sphere of light with a diameter of over a kilometer floats.
It's too big.
It was so large that Zhang Yan, standing before it, felt as insignificant as a speck of dust.
Liquid energy flowed across the surface of the sphere, and light and shadow flickered within it, as if imprisoning a living star.
Tens of thousands of thick pipes are inserted into this "star" from all directions, pumping immense energy to every end of the ruins.
This is the source of the Kunlun anomaly.
This is also the ultimate secret of the Mohist mechanical arts.
Zhang Yan stood with his hands behind his back, the brilliance of the blue sun reflected in his pupils.
Even with a system, even with a history of seeing big scenes.
Even now, facing this magnificent creation from ancient times, he still felt his scalp tingle.
This is not an ancient tomb.
It's not some kind of mechanical city.
【Ding! 】
[Contact the core target: Mohist School - The Heart of Heavenly Craftsmanship.]
[Database integration in progress... Permissions overriding in progress...]
[Analysis complete.]
A massive flow of information violently rushed into my mind.
The scene is fragmented yet grand.
Thirty thousand years ago.
A group of ancient sages, dressed in hemp clothing and wearing straw sandals, hollowed out the belly of Kunlun Mountain in order to escape the greedy gaze cast from the depths of the starry sea.
They used the energy of the Earth's core to forge this "Heart of Nature".
This is hardly an energy core.
This is clearly a faster-than-light propulsion system that integrates a warp drive, ecological cycle, and quantum computing!
This so-called "relic" stretching underground is actually called—
The Guixu Interstellar Ark for Migration.
The Mohist school did not disappear.
They simply launched the ark, carrying the spark of civilization, and sailed into the unknown depths of space.
What remains here is merely a backup power station that was abandoned due to a malfunction.
An insignificant abandoned outpost.
Zhang Yan let out a long breath, suppressing the surging emotions in his chest.
The Mohists, as depicted in history books, advocated "universal love and non-aggression."
In reality, the Mohist school built a star destroyer.
That makes perfect sense.
Only with absolute military force can absolute peace be achieved.
【Ding! 】
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the highest access level (incomplete) to the Mo Family database.]
[Unlock blueprint: Mo Family's Four Symbols - Azure Dragon.]
A brand new three-dimensional blueprint slowly unfolds in view.
This time, it's not a ground unit like the White Tiger.
It was a colossal vessel with a jade-green hue throughout.
Its shape is long and winding, covered with fine dragon scale armor, and it has two wings on its back, with a wingspan that blots out the sky.
It floated silently in the data stream, its electronic eyes radiating a chilling aura.
【The Four Symbols of the Mo School - Azure Dragon】
[Positioning: Starfield Annihilation-Class Biological Warship]
[Ship length: 12000 meters]
[Main Weapon: Causality Strike Main Cannon (Not Activated)]
[Secondary Weapon: Dimensional Collapse Torpedo (Missing)]
[Special Ability: Concept Erasure Field]
Looking at the rows of red weapon parameters, Zhang Yan's eyes twitched violently.
If the White Tiger is the king of the land...
That Azure Dragon is the tyrant of the starry sky.
This is the true fang of the Mohists.
A flagship capable of single-handedly suppressing civilization.
Zhang Yan licked his dry lips.
Although the White Tiger is strong, it doesn't even deserve to be called a toy in front of a creation of this level.
He must build it.
Just then, the black platform in front of them cracked open.
A control panel made of pure light rises up, with a palm print-shaped groove in the center.
Zhang Yan stepped forward.
He took out the bronze thumb ring he had found in Panjiayuan—the Mo Family Grand Master's Token.
Perfectly fitted.
"Buzz—!!!"
The heavens and earth roared.
The "Heart of Heaven's Craftsmanship," which had been dormant for ten thousand years, suddenly burst forth with a blinding light.
The entire underground space began to tremble violently, as if a sleeping giant beast was awakening.
A cold, mechanical synthesized voice exploded in the enclosed space.
There is no emotion, only absolute reason and rules.
[Identity verification successful...]
Zhang Yan, the 37th generation leader of the Mohist school.
Welcome home.
The flagship "Guixu" has been out of contact for 34,712 years.
Current energy reserves: 7.3%.
[Executing the highest privilege protocol...]
The sound suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, the originally dark blue light turned crimson.
The alarm sounded shrill and piercing.
【warn! 】
【warn! 】
[High-risk memetic contamination detected in the final jump coordinate system of the "Guixu" spacecraft!]
The "Ruins" are awakening!
[Please disconnect immediately! Please...]
Nourishes—
The sound stopped abruptly.
