Divine Tribulation of the Star Civilization - Chapter 1096

[1096. Undersea Tower]

He was indeed greedy, but not reckless at all.

The spiritual power in the body is burning fiercely, and the scenery in front of him is flickering. Like deep-sea claustrophobia, strange outlines kept appearing in Zhuge Yun’s brain, making it almost impossible for him to think – this could not be an hallucination caused by the terrifying water pressure.

It was dark, silent, and without living things, but he kept moving forward.

The three of them were silent all the way and continued to dive.

The huge water pressure is not a problem at all for Zhuge Yun, but the complex terrain makes fast people run into it if they don’t pay attention. Zhuge Yun could only follow Quintasha and the two. With the golden bubbles as targets, it was no longer a problem to go astray. Even after he became familiar with the terrain, he seemed to be flying in the air and his speed also increased.

Zhuge Yun could see the deeper part of the bottom of the trench, where clusters of green stars lit up. In addition, he also felt a huge flow of energy flowing into the surrounding magnetic field. As the energy rose, the seabed became as gorgeous as an aurora.

A strange resonance was born in Zhuge Yun’s body, which was a bit surprising.

Soon he saw that something darker than the surroundings seemed to tower in front, blocking the mysterious outline behind.

“We’ve arrived, and the front is my domain.” Quintasha turned around and stopped in front of a row of collapsed buildings. The remains of these buildings were majestic and desolate.

Zhuge Yun also stopped, and he heard the sound of metal crushing again.

Quintessa used her unique power of chaos to tear apart the seabed. A large hole formed in the water at the bottom of the abyss, and everything in front of her suddenly became clear.

“Very good.”

Zhuge Yun smiled lightly, and it was only then that he removed the spiritual power from Luo Zexier. The other party is indeed trustworthy, so the hostages in their hands are useless.

After the girl escaped from the trap, she did not do anything inappropriate and continued to stay in the golden bubble.

“Thank you…”

After seeing Zhuge Yun’s terrifying strength, she finally realized the gap between herself and her opponent, and Quintasha expressed her gratitude to Zhuge Yun at this time.

In fact, Zhuge Yun had no intention of harming the girl from the beginning. He just wanted to get the mysterious object. Because he had a hunch that what was hidden in the base of the black tower might be what Joyner needed to continue evolving.

Quintessa said expressionlessly, “If you want to visit this place, I can help you. But after seeing that thing, you will definitely give up the idea of taking it away.”

“Heh–“

Zhuge Yun He snorted coldly and did not answer.

The surroundings were dark and cold, with only weak light coming from a distant direction. Below that black shadow is the outline that I saw before. Nature would not create so many complex straight lines, they must all be man-made.

When he looked carefully, his consciousness reflected a familiar image in his mind. He suddenly felt like an arrow had been hit in his knee, and his heart suddenly felt awe-inspiring!

The giant shadow in front of me…isn’t it the Black Tower?

However, this black tower is different from other towers, it is too huge.

The tower is nearly two kilometers high and stands on the seabed like a needle that fixes the sea. Waves of energy flowed at the bottom of the black tower, vaguely surrounding the entire base of the black tower. There is an unparalleled ring-shaped “city” surrounding the base that exudes starlight like a mountain.

This base alone is as big as an ancient iron city, and the stars are like dim lights. If you add in the surrounding buildings, its scale may have exceeded that of any human city in pre-civilization times.

An extremely majestic and authentic ancient city under the sea!

Zhuge Yun understood the principle at just one glance. Energy comes from inside the base and is constantly flowing through the tower body, top and base, just like a huge nuclear reactor. What surprised him even more was that the familiar style, familiar mechanism, and familiar craftsmanship all came from the creations of the Birdmen.

This can no longer be described by the word ancient, but a product of the ancient times.

This black tower is completely different from the black tower in the Zerg lair on the isolated island. It does not belong to any of the 1,143 black towers, but is one of the original five central giant towers on the ancient earth.

When the Birdmen first built the Black Tower, they used the “rudimentary” raw materials at hand and the technology of the mothership core to collect many metal elements from the earth’s lava, and worked day and night to create five central giant towers.

Next, they used these metal elements to continuously purify and transform them, forming tens of millions of tons of core raw materials for building the Black Tower, and first created the base to drive energy.

At that time, they could only use simple nuclear reactions to provide energy. It was really amazing!

Zhuge Yun squinted his eyes for a while, and his consciousness felt that there were other heavier metal elements at the base of the tower. These metal elements were cut into thousands of “small rods” and arranged neatly to form a square array and buried at the bottom of the base, containing great radioactivity.

These substances have similar properties to soul crystals, but are more primitive and have no traces of human modification.

I’m afraid, underneath that is the reactor as the core of cooling energy. It has been soaked in seawater for hundreds of millions of years and uses the inside of the base to create new elements. The discharged pure water continuously circulates in the reactor and becomes water vapor.

This water vapor is also used as a neutron reducer to better control the energy reaction of the black tower. It is a very efficient and safe circulation system.

At this time, a series of questions appeared in Zhuge Yun’s mind – what allowed this black tower to be preserved? Why was such a huge black tower built in the abyss of the sea? Who is that magnificent city for?

Also, why would Quintasha regard this place as his lair?

Many questions lingered in Zhuge Yun’s mind.

After thinking for a while, he quickly realized – energy. Yes, isn’t that why Quintessa regards it as a lair.

However, he also wanted to know other answers.

Zhuge Yun didn’t say anything, he kept thinking in his mind and continued to move forward.

The three passed through an ancient tunnel under the sea. After entering this tunnel, the surroundings changed instantly. The sea water became dense, thick, and no longer elegant. A heavy feeling of pressure instantly filled the entire space.

The mystery of this ancient underwater city can only be truly felt by being in it.

The entire tower was like an active volcano, and Zhuge Yun was worried that if anyone touched it, they would be evaporated by the energy spewing out in an instant. If the reaction is controlled, it is a nuclear power plant; if it is not controlled, it is a nuclear explosion.

However, he soon discovered that his worries were unnecessary – compared to the runaway chain reaction that occurred at the moment of the nuclear explosion, the rate of nuclear change in the reactor at the base of the tower had been precisely controlled.

Its energy can be released outward at a very slow speed for people to use. And compared with supernatural creations, its operating capabilities today are less than one millionth of what it was originally.

But no matter what, this is what the bird people created hundreds of millions of years ago, and it is far ahead of any era on earth.

“Did anyone live here before?” Zhuge Yun asked after a while.
