Chapter 1293: City of Falling Stars

I saw a wave of colorful psychic energy ripples above the gray-white fossil forest.
Amidst the ripples, the sparkling waves showed an illusion that looked like a mirage.
This is the silhouette of a super giant city.
The city's skyline is completely different from Dragon City, and Turanze's Chijin City, Black Point City, and Hundred Blade City.
In the looming giant city, every building is slender and tall. Instead of rushing straight to the sky, it curves into a thrilling curve, intertwined and entangled naturally, like a gleaming primitive jungle. .
Meng Chao thought to himself that if the scale of this giant city is almost the same as that of the Dragon City, judging from the ratio of the giant city to the buildings, the average height of these buildings must be more than one kilometer.
So, they are definitely not built with reinforced concrete materials.
There is no reinforced concrete that can be built to a height of more than one kilometer, and it can be like the artist's frantically swaying brushstrokes after drinking, unscrupulously showing the superior technology of the old Turan civilization.
Such a city, such a technology, and such a momentum, like a stormy sea overwhelming the sky, with an unreasonable and incomparable posture, patted Meng Chao fiercely, making him dizzy and shocked.
"This is'Shanti Pasha-City of Falling Stars', the oldest city in Turan. Before our ancestors came to this land, it had stood for thousands of years, carrying our ancestors through the vast sea of ​​stars, looking for new Home."
The Wolf King seemed to perceive Meng Chao’s confusion, and while greedily admiring the magnificent beauty of the "City of Falling Stars", he patiently explained, "You should have heard that ancient legend? We Turan people are not the place under our feet. The aborigines of the earth, but from another...world.
"Our homeland, once combined, was ten times larger and ten times more fertile than Turanze and the Land of Holy Light.
"Our ancestors once established an extremely powerful country in their homeland, created a splendid culture, possessed all kinds of sophisticated and complicated manufacturing tools and killing machinery, unlike today, they can only wield swords, guns, swords and halberds. , Fighting in the most primitive way.
"It's a pity that the homeland suffered a catastrophe. The vast majority of the ancient Turan people died in the raging flames that burned the entire world. Only a few lucky people can gather in the city of Falling Stars-this is the old Turan civilization. , The only city that has the ability to shuttle between the stars.
"The ancestors regarded the city as a big ship.
"Driving this big ship, wandering and searching in the vast sea of ​​stars, looking for a brand new home.
"I don't know how much suffering has been experienced—according to the only words recorded in the oldest war epic, the ancestors encountered a black vortex that swallowed everything in the vast star sea; they encountered a hurricane that could blow their souls to the other side of the star sea. ; Encountered star explosions, stardust formation, like a never-ending maze; of course, also encountered countless lifeless, even the air is frozen, it is not suitable for survival in the world.
"In the end, when the Falling Star City was about to collapse, the ancestors were very lucky to find this place, Turanze, the land of hope, the land of rejuvenation, and a brand new home.
"It's a pity that the city of Falling Stars was already on its long journey, and it was bombarded by star dust and storms, and it was crumbling.
"The fuel that drives the city to ride the wind and waves in the vast sea of ​​stars has also been exhausted.
"The ancestors simply couldn't control the speed at which they fell into the Star City and hit Turanze severely.
"As a result, Falling Star City is like a big burning ball of fire, or, like its name, a fallen star, it whistling and falling to the center of Turanze.
"The City of Falling Star is in the center of Turanze, and it set off a stormy wave that almost penetrated the earth, smashing the entire space to pieces, and turning it into what you saw, the appearance of the Turan Sacred Mountain.
"The city of Falling Star is also torn apart, and the living environment has become extremely bad. Even with the tyrannical physique of the Turan people, they can't bear to continue living in the city.
"The ancestors could only be forced to abandon this ancient city from their homeland, and along the Turan River, they gradually migrated to all corners of their new homes. The roads and blue strands, multiplying and thriving, successively established Chijin City, Hundred Blade City, and Black Point City. , Red Moon City, Eagle Strike City, Wanhua City...
"As for Falling Star City, because there is still a large amount of homeland stored in the depths of the city, from a long time ago, no one can analyze it, let alone move and copy it to other places because of weapons, equipment, key facilities, and mysterious forces. It became the holy mountain temple, the source of power for the ancient Turan people.
"As the years go by, ten thousand years of time have eroded, enough to turn a splendid giant city into a tomb made up of ruined walls.
"The'Battle of Purification' three thousand years ago was even worse, speeding up the erosion, collapse and annihilation of Falling Star City.
"To this day, the glorious city from the homeland is only left with this dreamlike bubble like a mirage.
"Look, how majestic and elegant it is, full of...civilized beauty.
"This is what a real city should look like.
"Compared with Falling Star City, Chijin City, Black Point City, and Hundred Blade City are all as crude, crude, and ridiculous as lairs dug out by wild beasts.
"I really don't know, my people, my descendants, we Turan people, is it possible to rebuild a more splendid Fallen Star City in the distant future?"
The voice of the wolf king gradually became low.
The immense amount of information has caused a huge storm in Meng Chao's heart, but it can't be calmed down for a long time.
Meng Chao has long heard the legend of "flaming fireball, passing through the sea of ​​stars, falling from the sky" from the mouths of many Turan orcs, including Ice Storm.
According to Ice Storm, this is also the main difference in the origin of the Holy Light believers and the higher orcs in the world.
And this was the first time he heard such a detailed introduction.
Although the words of the Wolf King cannot be fully believed-even if the Wolf King did not lie, this ancient legend derived from the epic of war must be exaggerated, false, absurd, and ridiculous.
But the legend of Turanze's origin, the city of falling stars from another world, has a strange coincidence with the strange encounters of Dragon City over the past half a century.
"Sure enough, the ancestors of the Turan people, just like the people on earth half a century ago, were based on a city as a unit and traveled to another world as a whole.
"However, unlike Dragon City, which is passive and inexplicable, and travels to another world in an instant, the ancient Turan people seem to be trying to avoid some disaster—the so-called'catastrophe', active, conscious, and controllable chose to escape from their mother. star.
"Furthermore, before arriving in another world, the ancient Turan people seemed to have been drifting in the sea of ​​stars for a long time-is it possible that a huge city has the ability to travel in the sea of ​​stars?"
Meng Chao thought about it, thinking of some discoveries and inferences made by Longcheng scientists, and nodded secretly in his heart, "It's possible.
"The experts and scholars of the Longcheng Ruins Research Institute once put forward a very interesting hypothesis.
"They believe that in Dragon City, or in every major river and coastal area on the earth, according to the law of civilization development, 100% of the places where super cities will be born, deep underground, are buried with'traveling engines.' '.
"That is the legacy of the'ancient people', the oldest ancestor of mankind, to future generations.
"As long as human civilization develops to a certain height, these'traversing engines' can be unearthed, and thus have the ability to interstellar traversal, from being only curled up on the third planet of the solar system, an immature planetary civilization, to being able to live in the vast sea of ​​stars. Interstellar civilization that slashed the waves.
"It's just that, for some mysterious reason, the Dragon City people half a century ago triggered the'traveling engine' ahead of time.
"It is also possible that the'travel engine' itself has malfunctioned-hundreds of millions of years have passed, and it is not surprising that any malfunctions occur.
"As a result, without adequate preparation, Dragon City crossed to another world by surprise. It is very likely that the'traversing engine' had set a certain coordinate long ago, and it was constructed by the'ancients' in the vast sea of ​​stars. A'port'.
"As for the ancient Turan civilization, it should be more advanced than the earth civilization half a century ago.
"From the randomly changing totem armor, and the scale and architectural form of Falling Star City, the ancient Turan civilization is likely to have made epoch-making breakthroughs in materials science, energetics and even space science.
"They unearthed the'traversing engine' hidden in the depths of the city, and learned how to use the transversal engine to jump short distances in the sea of ​​stars. In the end, they came to this planet by different paths, but they all came to this planet. Ten thousand years ago!"
In this way, the
traveling engine hypothesis
of the Longcheng Ruins Research Institute’s crossing project team is supported by evidence and can explain many things.
Such as the crossing of Dragon City.
For example, why there is no reproductive isolation between the earth people and the Turan orcs and the holy light people.
For example, why people on earth can adapt to the environment of another world, understand the mysterious runes in the ancient ruins, listen to and follow the so-called "call of the ancient times", accelerate the evolution in the rich aura, and continue to grow stronger, inspiring people who do not exist on earth Of extraordinary power.
But it also brings a whole new problem.
If we say that the earthlings and the Turan orcs were brought to other worlds by the "traversing engine".
So, what about the holy light?
Where's the dwarf?
Where's the elves?
What about the undead in the ancient tombs, the demons in the abyss, and so many weird carbon-based intelligent creatures scattered all over the other world?
Did they all come from different home planets and crossed to other worlds?
If we say that Dragon City's crossing is just a coincidence.
So many civilizations, with a difference of no more than tens of thousands of years, have filled almost every corner of the alien world, causing the contradictions between civilizations to be extremely sharp, and sooner or later, a war that will sweep the entire alien world will erupt.
Is this also a coincidence?
Meng Chao doesn't like or believe in coincidences.
He smelled conspiracy.
