Chapter 644: The Tower of Babel Project
Since the establishment of the Wasteland Parliament, the overall environment of wasteland has improved and social stability has developed rapidly.
Almost everyone has tasted the benefits of stable and rapid development.
But there are two exceptions - Afu and Pharaoh Toumon.
Afu was arranged by Link to perform the task, and Pharaoh Tumon, as the "tenant", had to follow Afu out.
There is no specific process for both tasks, and all they can do is search aimlessly.
So during this period, Afu arrived at the last Gobi Desert where the wasteland singer Alia appeared, and found nothing. On the other hand, the investigation of the dynasty had nowhere to go. After running for several days, he made no achievements and no progress at all, which made Afu and Pharaoh Tumon quite frustrated.
"Do we still have to continue looking for the Gobi? The last time the Wasteland Song Girl appeared, it happened a few months ago. Now I don't know where I go, and I can't find clues here." Pharaoh Tumon controlled the moon ship to fly in the Gobi. His soul box body could not feel the warmth, but the searches for the past few days were fruitless, which made him surrounded by discouragement and negative energy.
Afu sat on the moon boat, looking into the distance. Although his eyes were a little confused, he kept looking straight ahead.
Seeing Afu firm, Pharaoh Tumon said again: "The Gobi Desert is deserted, and it will be a coast that will not be a result. Besides, there are no results by acting on intuition for so few days, and nothing can be obtained. Perhaps there is something wrong with your intuition, so you can't always believe in intuition, right?"
Ah Fu's lips were so dry that he had skinned and his hair was curled.
His lips trembled, and his mouth was filled with hoarseness.
"Come on, you will definitely find clues."
Pharaoh Tumon shook his head helplessly and sighed. Although Afu usually looks kind and easy to talk, once he makes up his mind to do something, even ten horses can't pull him back.
"Okay, then keep going south."
The sun was so vicious at noon that the Gobi was exposed to the sun, and the water in the air was twisting its waist, twisting the scene in the distance.
Ah Fu's eyes were firmly staring at the endless Gobi Desert.
Suddenly, a swaying figure that was stretched out appeared in the distance of the horizon.
Ah Fu's eyes suddenly lit up and pointed at the black shadow.
Pharaoh Tumon, who controlled the moon ship, also widened his eyes. This was the first person they met in the desert in the past two days.
For some reason, Pharaoh Tumon looked at Afu's firm back and suddenly had a premonition in his heart. This person in the distance in the Gobi may know some information about Alia...
Pharaoh Tumon himself didn't know why such absurd thoughts came to his mind.
The moon ship accelerated on the Gobi Desert, rolling up a series of dust.
The wind and sand sank, and the eyes squinted.
But Afu saw the black shadows in the distance and seemed to notice their rapid movement. He straightened his waist and was stunned for a moment, and began to look for a place to hide.
Neither Afu nor Pharaoh Tumon said anything. If this man could escape under the gaze of both of them, they would not have to hang out in the wasteland in the future.
Soon the moon ship arrived at the place where the black shadow was just now. There was a raised small earth bun here. Below the small earth bun was a dug hole, and a fence made of wood thorns was sealed at the entrance. Looking into the hole through the light, weeds were paved with the ground and a bucket, which seemed to be a resting crypt.
The crypt was empty and there was no human breath, but Pharaoh Tumon had scanned the hot signal from the Gobi Desert, and carried Afu quietly to a pile of rocks. He saw a young man wrapped in linen clothes similar to the Gobi Desert, curled up and pretended to be stones.
"We have seen you, so don't need to hide." Pharaoh Tumon said coldly.
Afu added: "We are the staff sent by Link to investigate. I want to know about the appearance of the wasteland singer Alia a few months ago. Don't you know?"
Compared to Pharaoh Tumon's cold voice, Afu's voice was much softer.
The young man hiding under the linen cloth heard Link's name and raised his clothes suspiciously and asked, "Are you sent by the Head of State to investigate?"
Afu took out various ID documents from his Lin Consortium, think tank and the director of the Colosseum.
The boy scratched his head shyly after watching for a long time and said, "Sorry, I'm illiterate. But seeing how many documents you have, it shouldn't be a scam."
"Do you know where Alia is? We only know that the last place she appeared before she disappeared was this Gobi."
Looking at the boy, he seemed to remember the scene of the day again, with reminiscence, Afu and Pharaoh Tumon looked at each other and felt a chance. It seemed that the boy did know some information.
"I was once terminally ill and was judged by the doctor to live only a few months. Because I had no money to treat, I wanted to die. Unfortunately, I heard the goddess appear again, leaving the dark forest of Faye, and heading towards Longcheng. As long as people born and raised in this land, they naturally know that the goddess can bring miracles.
So I trekked all the way to the Gobi, hoping to see the goddess. Just when the oil was exhausted and the lamp was dry, I saw a storm storm on the horizon of the Gobi, and a silver shiny stage was swept from a distance with rolling sand and dust. Then the notes floated into my ears, like falling from the sky, nourishing my almost dry soul again...
The goddess's singing led me across the long river of time. In the torrent of time, I saw the spectacular scene of the wasteland when it was born. The wreckage and nebula floating in the universe after the collision of stars condensed into a hot star core again. After millions of years of evolution, the hot magma and matter in the outer shell gradually cooled down, the impact of comets triggered the movement of the earth's crust and a large amount of rising water vapor. The birth of the metaprogenitor cells, the evolution of organisms. The ocean, land... the shade of green trees, the reproduction of organisms, and all things revolve around... From nothing to something, life prospered, as brilliant as stars.
In this process, I was surprised to find that my thin body began to regain my vitality, and my whole body returned to its best condition at a speed visible to the naked eye. Colorful clouds appeared on the silver chariot stage, and the goddess was wearing a blue long dress that looked like a star waterfall, as if she hung the entire Milky Way on her body, shining brightly."
When the boy recalls it, his eyes are filled with strong admiration and admiration.
Afu and Pharaoh Tumon were both shocked by the brilliant scenes depicted in the young man's words. After a while, Pharaoh Tumon came to his senses and asked, "What about that, where did Alia go afterwards?"
"I also became a member of my followers and ran to chase the silver stage on the Gobi Desert. But the silver chariot stage galloped in the Gobi Desert. No matter how hard we tried, we could not get close to it. Instead, the distance became larger and larger. In the end, the stage and the singing disappeared into the endless sand and dust together, and there was no trace."
When the boy said this, his face showed an empty and regretful expression, and his heart seemed to be pulled away.
This is the first time Afu and Pharaoh Toumon have heard the description of witnesses who have seen the wasteland singer Alia. They have already yearned for it based on language descriptions alone.
But the final result was disappointing.
"Is it really disappearing directly into the dust, and no one sees more detailed situations?" Ah Fu asked unwillingly.
The boy nodded confidently: "Because after the goddess disappeared, all the followers stopped, either wailing in pain or helplessness. After staying for a while, they finally accepted the reality and then left in disappointment."
"Then why are you still here?" Pharaoh Tumon couldn't help asking.
The young man looked pious and looked in the direction where the goddess had disappeared, and said confidently: "I firmly believe that the goddess will come back, so I want to wait here. The goddess lets me rebirth with a breathless body, and she must have her ideas and purposes. I have seen the vast and boundless truth. The next time I see the goddess, I will understand my mission."
Pharaoh Tumon saw the unusual energy fluctuations around the boy, and suddenly asked, "What's your name?"
“Girou.”
"We are also looking for Alya, at this point our goals are consistent, are there any interest in collaborating?"
A trace of vigilance flashed across Giroud's eyes and asked, "Why are you looking for a goddess to be detrimental to her?"
Although I don’t know why Pharaoh Tumon suddenly won over Giroud, Afu must have chosen to assist at this time.
"How could it be detrimental to us to look for Alia in the name of the Head of State?"
Giroud thought it was true, that was the hero of the Head of State Link, who led all the people of the wasteland to fight against aliens, and he also regarded him as a male god. How could such a person who is versatile and devoted to allowing all the people of the wasteland to live a good life, be detrimental to the goddess?
"Okay, I'll work with you."
Giroud returned to his crypt hut, Afu took the time to whisper to Pharaoh Tumon: "Why do you suddenly want to cooperate with him?"
"I saw the energy fluctuations that only believers can have in him. It means that he has indeed received gifts from Alia and has become her loyal believer. The energy of this faith has a root. As long as we follow the trajectory of the power of faith in Giroud, we may find Alia."
Ah Fu looked surprised: "Can you still see the power of faith?"
"Then of course, don't forget that I was a pharaoh before, and I enjoyed the worship and worship of the entire desert, and I could naturally see this energy."
...
Just as the investigation of Afu and Tummon Pharaoh finally made some progress, a slightest plan of Shadu was put on the agenda, and all activities and current projects were to make way for this plan.
This plan is the Tower of Babel Project.
There is only one thing in this plan, which is to carry out a comprehensive transformation of the Machinery City to adapt to the complex and changeable universe environment. At the same time, install a set of "big hearts" for the Machinery City so that this mobile steel city can be launched!
The success rate of transformation of Mechanical City and Transportation Ship was 99%. After repeated consideration, Link convened Helen, Dave and Ludwig to discuss the feasibility of transforming Mechanical City into a space fortress. The final conclusion was that although it was challenging, the success rate was 80%.
Helen even gave several solutions, allowing Link to see more possibilities.
