Overturned Tower

Hearing this, Delphinium didn't react at all.

However, Luo Su's expression changed, and she stretched out her hand to pull Bad Ri down: "What did you say?"

The bad day faded and disappeared from the eyes in an instant, and reappeared in a standing posture behind Luo Lo.

He patted Luo Luo's shoulder and said softly: "By the way, it's okay to tell you this secret.

"You were sniped just now. The reason why I didn't show up immediately was because if I showed up directly, I would have exposed you... The other reason is that I caught up and took a look to see who the gunman was.

"Guess what I saw?"

"what did you see?"

Luo Cao asked angrily: "No matter what you saw, you came here empty-handed, so you must have missed it, right?"

"Because what I saw was an elf."

Bad Day replied calmly.

Hearing this, Luo Su and Delphinium were both stunned.

"I can see clearly. Your assassin has elf ears... and a highly modified prosthetic body.

"That's why I didn't kill him or capture him. This was to avoid alerting the enemy.

"This is actually easy to understand. This dangerous weapon cannot be mastered by outsiders...it can only belong to elves.

"After the establishment of the floating island, the island has not conducted any overt weapons research. In theory, all the weapons from the past wartime have been destroyed, but there were absolutely no such weapons in that era. In other words, this can only be A new weapon developed secretly by the Seven Giants out of sight of the dragon.

"Then the question is... for what purpose was this beyond-visual-range assassination weapon developed? If a hit misses, it will immediately escape. What is the target for such a disciplined killer to train for?"

"...Is it Sanshin Heavy Industry?"

Luo Cao guessed: "Now they and Sogo Island are the only ones who have the technology to make such sophisticated weapons."

"Probably."

Bad Sun shrugged: "But [No preconceptions], [No subjective assumptions], do you still remember the rules of the Tower of Babel?

"We can only say that Shenzhi Heavy Industries can do this kind of thing and has this kind of technology. But we can't say that other giant companies are irrelevant."

Looking at Luo Luo who fell into silence, Bad Ri said seriously: "I don't want others to hear the secret I told you. Especially Russell... Delphinium, do you understand what I mean?"

"...I'll do my best to keep it a secret."

Delphinium nodded.

But she didn't say die.

She was still very cautious - or in other words, she valued Russell's views and opinions more than the Tower of Babel she had just met.

If she thinks Russell must know, then she will also disclose this information to Russell at the appropriate time.

But this attitude is enough.

"There is no need to be so nervous. Because the secret itself will not affect anything, it will only induce unnecessary and dangerous curiosity..."

Bad Ri whispered: "When the three of us were on Tongshen Island, we followed an elf director and sneaked into the core of the floating island. That is the energy supply center of the entire floating island... We originally planned to take a look, What is it that is supplying energy to the floating island? We think it should be some kind of ancient technology. From there we can judge the extent of the development of ancient technology and what happened in the era 'before year zero'."

"Then what?"

Luo Li couldn't help lowering her voice: "What on earth did you see?"

"We saw the dormant dragon."

"……What?"

Luo Su was stunned for a moment: "Shouldn't the giant dragon be on the earth?"

"But we did see the dragon. To be precise, we saw one of the 'hearts' of the dragon."

Bad Sun said solemnly: "That is a very huge engine. It is as high as a building, exuding radiance and shining with dazzling iridescence. Countless energy pumps, and the surrounding air is visible to the naked eye. The humming of the space is fluctuating. If it weren't for the 'Bishop', we might just appear in that space and die just by looking at it.

"The core part is as clear as crystal, and a human-shaped shadow is projected inside the prismatic crystal about four to five meters high.

"She looks like a girl with long ice-blue hair, with decorations on her body that look like hollow armor. But she doesn't have any spiritual characteristics, and her ears are not pointed like elves, but like human babies. The same round ears.

“If I hadn’t seen Director Lazaniel reporting to her respectfully, I wouldn’t have thought she was the legendary ‘dragon’.

"And her voice..."

When Bad Day said this, he paused: "It's as cold as artificial intelligence."

"...You mean that dragons are just mechanical creations?"

Luo Su was a little unbelievable: "How is that possible? The elves have been worshiping them for a long time... Wasn't there an earthly kingdom before? Could it be that at that time, the dragons also ruled the country in this form?

"If they are just mechanical creations, why do elves respect dragons so much...even like loyal dogs?"

"That's just the dragon's heart, but we don't know where the dragon's body is. Maybe the dragon has more than one heart."

Bad Sun said seriously: "But among this knowledge, the most informative part is not here. It lies in Director Lazaniel's name for the dragon."

"call?"

Delphinium asked softly, murmuring.

She vaguely thought of something.

"Yes, he calls the dragon 'Mother'. But there is a strange thing here, that is, he uses 'Elvish' to communicate with the dragon. And this word also has 'Lord' in Elvish. , 'captain', 'captain', 'leader' and other meanings."

Bad Sun said in a deep voice: "According to our previous point of view, Elvish should be a language system created by elves, because its definition of certain words is very vague and its logic is very mechanical. But now it seems that it may not be the case. It Possibly a language for communicating with dragons. A special programming language.

"So we have a new point of view. The 'mother tree' system used by the Elf Director for rebirth should be related to the dragon.

"The difference between elves and ordinary humans is that elves have long lifespans and do not have spiritual relatives; and the difference between those eighty-four people and other elves is that they can communicate directly with the dragon, while other elves cannot."

At this point, he said to Delphinium: "You should know what will happen if you tell Russell this kind of thing, right?

"With Russell's curiosity, he will definitely start research on the dragon... but that is too dangerous.

"After I recollected this memory, I guessed... maybe that man defected for this reason. He disappeared from seven empty islands out of thin air, so the only place he could go is full of pollution and On the cursed land.

"In other words, he either went to find the mages or the dragon. Considering that the deer-headed statue did not see him in his dream, I think he should have gone to the dragon. Or for research , or for secrets, or maybe even for undercover..."

He looked at Luo Su, who had fallen silent, and added: "Although it's not easy for me to tell you what happened to Grandma Lan. But what I can say is that she felt that her life span was no longer enough, so she applied for a The most dangerous investigation... In the mission presented by the deer head statue, she finally chose to go to the ground.

"I think she has some ideas, that is, to find that man.

"...However, although I can understand him. But I still can't forgive him.

"No matter what he wanted to do, he made the doctor live a miserable life for more than ten years that he should not have lived. The doctor originally had a happy life that belonged to her. She came to the Tower of Babel following that man, but he I left the doctor behind without saying goodbye... In the end, the doctor was cursed to death for no apparent reason, and I guess it had something to do with him. Even if he had been my teacher, I couldn't forgive that man for not taking responsibility.

"If you tell Russell something like this, he won't be able to help it.

"Sooner or later we will study the dragon, but not now; we will also find the traitor one day, but also not now.

"Now is the time when the seven empty islands are undergoing great changes. We need to absorb talents and hoard strength as quickly as possible. When the empty islands fall into a period of real chaos, they will have no time to take care of us.

"At that time, it will be the moment when we go all out to dig out those secrets. It will also be the moment when we officially turn from darkness to light."

"...and you tell me this secret now just so that I can't get away."

Delphinium twitched her lips: "I can't leave now. Not only because I know too much, but also because Russell will touch such a level of secret sooner or later... I can't watch him do this alone. A dangerous thing."

"You should thank me, little Delphinium."

Bad Ri said with a smile: "I'm giving you a push... You still have the last step to make up your mind, right?

"You two obviously like each other, but you don't dare to take the last step because you care about each other. It would be bad if the yin and yang are separated in the end. Dog, I'm old, I can't bear to see such a stomach-ache story... each other Those who are attached to each other should eventually get married.

“As for dangers, setbacks and difficulties?

"——That is not something that should be avoided, but something that should be solved. There are too many things we have to solve, and there are too many sufferings in this world...

“But as long as we stick together, we can do anything.”

I feel like my schedule is getting more and more chaotic. I woke up at 1:30 today. According to the time difference, I finished two chapters in the morning... I should consider myself a diligent cat...
