The plot of the game has finally taken a turn.
After Seele explored a world bubble, Durandal sent a message asking Seele if she had made any discoveries.
After learning that there was no gain, the silly goose was not disappointed. It immediately opened another channel to the miniature world bubble for Seele.
Within this bubble of worlds, Seele finally discovered the anomaly.
Players were also drawn to the visuals displayed in the game.
"...?"
"That is?"
Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of Seele.
One of them, whom players have seen before, is Dr. Mei from the previous civilization.
And another one floating in the air...
"Huh? Is that Bronya when she was little?" Kiana was extremely surprised and quickly controlled her character to run over.
The camera then focused on the two figures.
Dr. Mei: "What's the conclusion?"
"If the radiometric isotope measurements are not affected by other unknown factors, then the construction date of this site is..."
"...about 20 years ago"
The character whose name is replaced by three question marks is the girl who looks exactly like Ya Ya.
However, her tone of voice was devoid of emotion and had a hint of electronic sound.
It's like... artificial intelligence?!
"Heh..." After listening to the girl's explanation, Dr. Mei smiled helplessly and rubbed her temples: "This is truly a suffocating result."
? ? ?: "Are you scared?"
Dr. May: "Of course I'm scared, but—at the same time, I also find it very interesting."
"Don't you think it's a very mysterious and unknown phenomenon?"
"Moreover, the heavier the fate, the more worthwhile it is for us to resist—right?"
……
Their conversation ended there, and then their figures completely vanished.
For Seele in the game, these were two complete strangers.
She had absolutely no idea what their conversation was about.
but……
This is incredibly exciting for the players.
The amount of information contained in those few simple sentences is truly enormous.
First of all, this "projection" undoubtedly refers to something that happened in a previous civilization.
Players are also speculating about the identity of the girl who looks exactly like YaYa.
There was even a duck in the previous civilization?! (In this version, Dr. Mei's appearance is not based on Mei's image, so players didn't find it strange.)
Secondly... there's this ruin that the two of them mentioned...
Any player who has followed this far will know that the ruins they are talking about are the real-world ruins on the moon that were just explored by the group of Stupid Goose.
As mentioned earlier, since this is lunar space, the "projection" shone by the world bubble here is completely unrelated to Earth.
It has nothing to do with Earth, so it must be something that happened on the moon.
And from the girl who looked just like a duck, we learned that... these ruins were actually built 20 years ago!!
In other words, from the perspective of modern civilization, this relic on the moon has existed for at least 25 years!
Suddenly, the players all realized something—besides the current civilization and the previous civilization… there was also a civilization before that!!
Those ruins should be the buildings of the pre-pre-civilization, or even the pre-pre-pre-pre-civilization!
And those civilizations were undoubtedly... wiped out by the End!
The moment this idea came out, Dr. Mei was understandably terrified.
Even the players who were watching were incredibly shocked and horrified.
In front of the live stream, Chongchong was unaware of this.
Her entire attention was focused on the girl who looked like a duck.
In the game, after Seele discovered that the two figures had disappeared, she also received a message from the silly goose.
"Seele? I've detected your energy fluctuations. What happened?"
“Just now… I think… I saw a residual image in the world bubble…” Then, Seele told the goose exactly what she had just seen and heard.
After listening to Seele's story, the silly goose was quite surprised.
She could actually understand the conversation between the two afterimages!
Schrödinger, however, had a certain guess: "It's possible that it's because of the powerful synchronization between Seele and the World Bubble that you automatically understood the thoughts of those afterimages."
Schrödinger then began to regret his decision.
We shouldn't have separated Xier and Li Sushang in the first place.
Because... Li Sushang also encountered afterimages, but she couldn't understand their conversations.
"Since Seele possesses such a clear ability to gather information, then Li Sushang's solo actions might be of little use."
So the three of them contacted Li Sushang again and proposed canceling their solo exploration.
After hearing the explanation, Li Sushang had no objections.
"Alright, let Seele come over here and translate for me."
"After I leave this world bubble, the things contained within it will begin to cycle again, returning to the state I experienced before—"
"How about this: I'll work with the Sumeru Mustard Seed to quickly explore the miniature world bubbles that might contain information; while Seele will follow up from behind to identify the important clues contained within that information."
"Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking." As soon as she finished speaking, the silly goose opened a passage to another world bubble for Li Sushang.
Only after Li Sushang left the world bubble she was in did the silly goose reopen a passage, allowing Xier to step in.
"This is the world bubble that Su Chang just discovered, containing information. Let's go listen to what it records, Seele."
Seele nodded: "Understood~"
Amidst the expectant gazes of the players…
Another familiar face has appeared!
Immediately, the screen was filled with comments like "[V2V, oh my god]".
For many players, they have just experienced the storyline of the Paradise of the Past.
Players really miss the heroes in Paradise.
I thought that their scenes were completely finished after the destruction of Paradise.
Unexpectedly, they appeared again in the final chapter!
This is truly a special surprise.
in the game screen.
Dr. May, Wilville, and the girl who looked like a duck were huddled together, discussing matters related to the [Fire Seed Project].
These conversations did not reveal any important clues.
For the players, the only useful clue was that they learned the name of the former civilization duck—Number 17.
.......
Chapter 518 Alright, alright, my cat is going to die today, right?
After listening to Seele's translation, the silly goose stroked his chin and began to analyze: "It feels like... this happened in a previous civilization."
Schrödinger: "After all, the concept of a 'sanctuary' was mentioned."
"The Yellowstone base, for example, was converted from a former civilization's shelter, while the Salt Lake base is said to have also largely imitated the design of the shelter."
In other words, it's unlikely that people of this era would leave behind a dialogue like the one Seele described.
Their conversation made Li Sushang realize something, and she quickly said, "Wait... so the ruins used by [New Atlantis] are also..."
“…a moth drawn to fire,” the silly goose added.
“Yes! That’s the name.” Li Sushang nodded. “Someone else has mentioned it before.”
After Li Sushang's reminder, a very bold idea came to Dai'e's mind.
"I'm wondering... if people from the previous civilizations had already foreseen that we [Awakened Ones of the Holy Mark] would be on the moon right now..."
"And everything, including the [Stigmata Project], is merely one part of some unknown vision they have."
