Alien Knights

In the dim basement, Sabrina drank the fruit wine in front of him by the faint candlelight, and said to herself: "The third pick, now I am just a dog of the bereavement."

Todd glanced at Rachel quietly, who gave him a calm look.

Sabrina continued: "When Clarence was alive, I had a pretty good life. Now I can only hide underground and live like a mouse!"

Richel explained to Todd at this time: "For Sabrina, Eleanor has specially issued a reward among the different races. Whoever catches her can get a large bounty, regardless of life or death."

Todd asked, "Why did Eleanor target her this way?"

Sabrina pointed her head with her finger, her immature little face was full of vicissitudes of helplessness: "Because of my ability... Abandon the original body and obtain a new body. In this way, I can indirectly gain infinite life."

Todd understands her situation a little: "So, Eleanor, who is pursuing immortality, takes your ability as a goal, so he wants to catch you so desperately."

Rachel nodded: "This time I was able to enter Iliad's library and copy the book I wanted, thanks to Sabrina's ability. She took up the body of a masked servant and helped me Opened the way to sneak in."

Speaking of this, Rachel stretched out his palm to Sabrina: "What do I ask you to save?"

Sabrina did not move, but instead asked Rachel, "What did you promise me?"

Rachel tilted his head, looked at the girl in front of him, and said amusedly: "King Muxi doesn't hesitate to be in danger. He came here to meet you and I want to see you, don't you believe my promise yet?"

Sabrina lowered her head to think for a moment, then gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She left her seat and walked to the corner of the basement, opened a piece of floor tiles, and took out a heavy wooden box.

Put it on the table, Sabrina opened the box, pointed to the pile of notes inside, and said to Rachel: "It's all here."

Todd took out the notebook from the wooden box and looked through it carefully.

A lot of text and pictures were copied in dozens of notebooks. Todd's headache is that some of the text is in lingua franca and some in imperial language, but more of it is a language that is completely incomprehensible.

"These are ancient Tyrolean languages, and they are translated versions of ancient scrolls." Rachel looked at the look in Todd's eyes and quickly raised his hands and said, "Don't look at me like this. Although I know more than a dozen languages, But I can’t read this kind of text at all."

In desperation, Todd skipped the text and began to focus on the picture.

The huge black tower, the gleaming underground passage, and the mysterious inverted pyramid pattern...

The notes are all depictions of Jing Su and the Beacon Tower. In this way, these things have been circulated among the people long before the words were born.

Todd turned to a page of notes and suddenly stopped what he was doing.

It was full of strange texts, which were the symbols Meredith had shown him in the soul space.

One horizontal, one circle and one horizontal, the top and middle two circles, the bottom and the bottom circle, the top and middle two circles, the bottom circle... There are dozens of strange symbols in total, all of which are randomly arranged by horizontal and circles. .

Todd clenched his hand into a fist to support his chin, thinking hard, and wondering in his heart, is it possible that these regular symbols are a kind of code?

Rachel leaned over to look at the notes and said softly: "These symbols come from the records of the only person who entered the room of the beacon tower thousands of years ago. According to his description, these symbols are flooded on the crystal screen. Stopped jumping, changing and floating. Perhaps... these are the language used by Absolute Will?"

"I always think this kind of symbol is very familiar. I should have seen it somewhere." Todd scratched his head: "But I can't remember it for a while."

Sabrina, who was sitting next to Todd, looked up, rotated the notes on the table by 90 degrees, placed them right in front of her eyes, and glanced curiously.

Looking at the notebook that was rotated 90 degrees in front of him, the original horizontal lines turned into vertical lines, and all the symbols became a three-digit number string. Todd was struck by lightning and forgot to breathe in an instant.

"1010011100101101..."

Todd's unconscious meditation caught Rachel's attention.

"What's wrong? What did you find?"

Todd pointed to the notebook and said in a trembling voice: "Thousands of years ago, those ancient Tyroleans, when transcribing and translating the ancient script scrolls, I am afraid they got the paper direction wrong..."

"Wrong direction of the paper?"

"The typesetting should have been transcribed horizontally, but it was mistakenly made vertical..." Todd pointed to the note and said, "So, these bars should be vertical. These symbols are actually numbers, a bunch of 0 and 1 The numbers that make up."

Rachel looked carefully and murmured: "Yes, these symbols look upside down, they are indeed very similar to the numbers used by the empire, 0 and 1... Then, what does this represent?"

Todd rubbed his temples vigorously with his fingers: "In my hometown, 0 and 1 are used as the most basic calculation language. Their arrangement and changes can be used to store information, embody logic and formula calculations... So, it It is widely used in the program assembly of smart machines."

Rachel became more confused as he listened: "You mean, in the beacon tower control room, the symbols displayed are actually a kind of machine language of the kingdom of heaven?"

"This language is called a binary language ~www.readwn.com~ and is seen as a way of calculating the results of everything, but...why? Why does it appear in the beacon tower?"

Todd put his arms around his chest, thinking hard: "Could it be that the beacon tower and the crystal lodging are all artificially manufactured products? Plane experiments, the battle of the gods, and the selection of races are actually produced with future humans. Related?"

Todd, who couldn't think of an answer even thinking about breaking his head, sighed at the roof, his face full of distress.

Rachel encouraged him: "We still have too little information at hand. If we can translate these Tyrolean words and study them carefully, there may be more answers."

Todd nodded, put the notebook in the wooden box, signaled Rachel to put it away properly, and then asked: "When will a boat return to Muxi Town?"

"I have sent someone to contact." Rachel locked the wooden box and replied: "The day after tomorrow, a two-masted cargo ship will arrive at the port. After boarding the ship, we will go west to patrol the Imperial Sea. The team, and then head north to Twilight City."
