Chapter 104 The so-called kingdom of heaven(1/2)
When talking about the Astronomical Society at that time, we have to mention the existence of the Utopia, the core of its governance at that time.
Before the disappearance of the previous presidents, the Astronomical Society was a giant in the world, and its institutions such as the Utopia, the Administration, the Survival Institute, and the Technology Department could be said to be behemoths that could mobilize the power of the world at any time.
Hell was developed by countless ascendants, and the technical department composed of scholars absorbed wisdom and technology from everything gained, and then applied and tried it from the countless laboratories of the Continuity Institute. The final result was properly reviewed by the governing bureau.
And prudent allocation benefits the current situation.
And all of this follows the grand blueprint specified by the Utopia.
——Make this world a better place.
At that time, the Astronomical Society began to rely on the pillars of the world axis to create many miracles. And with the successful exploration and transformation of the Silver Sea, the next step of the Kingdom of Heaven was naturally on the agenda.
At the beginning, he attempted to explore immortality, but soon discovered that this plan was unrealistic, no, it could be said to be arrogant.
There has never been an immortal thing in the world. Even gods will face their own decline after a thousand years, let alone human beings?
When the first natural enemy died of old age at the border, the exploration of immortality was temporarily put on hold, and the Utopia retreated to seeking ways to resist death.
Unfortunately, there is no way to resist death.
Then, next...they seek to avoid the loss of death.
In other words, how to preserve the value of life.
This is the origin of the kingdom of heaven.
"When the kingdom of heaven has not yet fallen, all the precious wisdom in the world can be preserved before it is lost." The crow's voice was about to completely penetrate the shell of the vault, and his tone became vague: "After death."
"Huh?" Huaishi was puzzled: "After a person dies, doesn't the source of essence dissipate?"
"It's true that it has dissipated." Crow said calmly: "But that doesn't prevent you from leaving a copy before you die, right?"
"..."
Huaishi was stunned.
"Yes, that's right. The so-called heaven is not the paradise of the soul, it is just a place where valuable records are stored, a...library."
The crow chuckled softly: "All precious human knowledge and wisdom will last forever with the backup. After giving in three times, this ideal was realized.
It's a pity that it didn't last long, and fell away a hundred years ago - tsk tsk, that was Green Sun's famous battle, now you know why they are regarded as terrorists, right?"
Huai Shi was silent for a long time, looking down at the book of destiny in his hand.
"That is to say..."
"That's right, if heaven is a library." Crow's tone became meaningful: "And the book you are holding in your hand is its catalog.
Now that it is vibrating, it cannot be because of other things - it must be fragments of the kingdom of heaven.
If you can get it, not only will the Book of Destiny grow, but you will also benefit greatly, right? If you are lucky enough to find records about military attacks, you won't even have to look for the teacher."
"But... wouldn't such a good thing be well hidden by the Astronomical Society?"
“It’s true that some of them are collected, but more records have sunk into the depths of hell along with the explosion. I’m afraid I won’t be able to find them back even if I look for them.
However, there should be quite a lot of record collections active in the current situation, the border or hell.
As far as I know, the shameful thing "Faust" was caught, and the three collections of essential poems "Byron", "Keats" and "Shelley" seemed to have been taken away in advance.
The ones from "Confessions," "Les Miserables," and "Dream of Red Mansions" didn't seem to run away at all. They squatted in place and were well taken in. I guess they are living a happy life now, right?"
Crow said: "The lazy guy in "Moby Dick" will definitely hide and no one can find him. There seems to have been news about these two guys "Rashomon" and "Mahamaya" recently...Those guys, don't let any of them go.
People worry less.
With your current level, it will definitely be difficult to deal with that kind of polymer, so don't think about it.
I estimate that what is here is just one or two fragments. Although it has some magical effects, it will not remind people of the kingdom of heaven in the past, and it is still within your ability, so you can rest assured."
Huai Shi glanced at her for a long time and asked curiously: "Are you the same..."
"No, I'm not like them."
The crow seemed to laugh, quite happily: "They are prisoners of fate, and I... just stay temporarily."
In an instant, she passed through the door of the vault, ignoring all the warning measures, and suddenly appeared in the tightly sealed vault like mist.
Everything you can see is the rippling light of source matter.
Dozens of boxes were carefully placed on the shelves, with layers of security and verification. In the center of the vault, there was a pair of burning eyes staring at the sudden crow.
It's a wolfdog.
On the stone platform in the center of the vault, the fierce dog made of steel seemed to be alive and opened its eyes.
It immediately noticed the presence of the crow, stood up suddenly, and made a sharp sound like steel colliding with its torso movement. It grinned and showed its fangs.
But as the mist shrank and the crow appeared, it was glanced at.
Then there is no more.
Its fierce look disappeared, and after a few whinings it squatted back down.
"Good dog."
Crow nodded with satisfaction and withdrew her gaze. When she turned around and looked behind her, Huai Shi couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes…
Behind the tempered glass of the shelf, transparent jars are filled with light green solution, and suspended in them are eyeballs one after another...
There are more than seven or eight eyeballs in each jar. If all the first row of shelves are counted, there are at least more than a hundred eyeballs here!
This is just the most fascinating thing to look at. The jars in the back rows contain either hearts or strange-looking animal embryos.
At first glance, it's like entering a neuroscientist's laboratory.
Full of horror atmosphere.
"What the hell is this!" Huai Shi almost jumped out of his chair in fright: "I didn't come to the cinema to watch this kind of horror movie!"
"It's just a very common organ smuggling. Is there anything to make a fuss about?"
Crow glanced at those things and withdrew his gaze: "Don't worry, most of them are not human. To put it bluntly... human eyes are too cheap and have no value at all for border smuggling.
On the contrary, the organs and tissues of some borderline alien species are in short supply in pharmaceutical research, and the demand simply exceeds supply."
Huai Shi swallowed, "You just... said 'most', right?"
"Look at what you said." Crow was amused, "Isn't 'substituting good quality' the most common tactic used by capitalists? You have already bought parallel imports, how can you still ask others to give you genuine products?"
"That's not what I meant..."
"And my advice is don't worry too much."
Crow no longer dwelled on this topic, and ignored the front row shelves and the few items that were obviously border relics. Instead, he looked at the flat box in the corner.
She suddenly lost her size and seeped into the cracks of the box.
Then, Huai Shi saw a fragment of a cherished and cherished page on red velvet cloth.
It seems to have turned yellow over the years and is on the verge of breaking. It is filled with various characters, and hand-drawn drawings of the sun, lions, snakes and embryos can be vaguely seen.
"That's it...that's it..."
The crow laughed happily: "Although I have bad luck on the way to find things, do I have good luck in finding things? This record fragment is perfect."
"what? What?"
Huaishi's eyes lit up when he heard there was something good.
"An alchemy prescription from hundreds of years ago. I can't tell what it was originally used for, but the depiction of angels on it seems to be the manuscript of Count Saint-Germain. If you trace it back further, there should be a trace of "The Jade Record"
The essence of.”
The crow sighed: "You've made a lot of money this time."
Before she finished speaking, her body suddenly disappeared and returned to Huai Shi's shoulder. Huai Shi turned back in shock, her smile gradually disappearing: "Didn't you say I made a lot of money?"
"Yes." Crow nodded.
Huai Shi's eyes widened: "Then why don't you take it out?"
"Please, did you make a mistake in asking me to use a detection ink bottle to help you steal things? Throwing a grenade for you is already the limit."
Crow rolled his eyes: "Even if I want to take it, I have to be able to fly out of the vault with such a big box. Do you think I can? I don't even have hands."
"What should we do?" Huai Shi was dumbfounded.
"I've scouted out the road for you and opened up all the horizons for you, so you can't go alone!"
The crow glared at him with hatred: "Why are you so hesitant when you take advantage of someone else? Think of a way to kill him!"
"No!" Huai Shi shook his head seriously: "If I go, wouldn't it be stealing?"
"Why don't you go with me?"
"You steal, you steal...can't I just pretend not to know?"
Huaishi sighed, "Besides, can't we think of a normal way?"
"The last time a similar alchemy formula was auctioned, an ancient formula of uncertain authenticity was priced at eleven million." Crow looked at him sideways: "Are you going to buy it with your head?"
