Endless Road of Corpse

MaggieQ was surprised. She looked at the Taoist and asked, "How do you know about the Invisible College?"

"From the dark net …" The Taoist seemed a bit embarrassed as he said, "Actually, I don't know if it's true or not …" "This …" After saying this, the Taoist looked up at MaggieQ and asked carefully, "Can you tell me more about it?"

MaggieQ shrugged and said indifferently, "Whatever."

Only then did the Daoist leader let out a light breath and said, "The Invisible Academy isn't a school of fact, but rather those people who have mastered the core profound truths of the human race. It's said that these people have obtained some golden stones, and obtained sudden enlightenment in terms of intelligence, regarding them, the people of the world have given them many honorifics. Some people call them sages, while others call them prophets.

"Let's not talk about the distant future. Just talk about the two great sages of modern times, Newton and Einstein!" The Taoist adjusted the backpack behind him and changed his posture.

"In 1666, because of the plague in London, Newton went to the countryside to avoid it. However, in just one year, he perfected calculus, created the Law of Universal Gravitation, and resolved the visible light into monochromatic light — that is to say, the calm experiment of our junior high school physics. In just one year, Newton had made a groundbreaking contribution in the fields of mathematics, mechanics, and optics, establishing the foundation of modern science in one fell swoop. It can be said that within this year, Newton single-handedly brought mankind into the age of science and technology!"

"And Einstein, a minor employee of the Patent Office who couldn't even be evaluated as a professor, in 1905 he miraculously published five papers, including the most famous ones on relativity. In just a year, Einstein made groundbreaking contributions to Brownian motion, quantum theory, and special relativity. Any one of these contributions is enough to win the Nobel Prize!"

"So in the history of modern physics, the years 1666 and 1905 were called 'Year of Miracles'! Without any warning or explanation, it can only be described as a miracle. Some people said that it was as if they were suddenly kissed by God! "

"Are they both from the Invisible Academy?" San Mao interrupted.

The Daoist nodded and said, "It should be said that they were all chosen by the Pointy Stone. Newton was originally an alchemist, and because of his achievements in alchemy, he was once appointed as the factory director of the British Empire's Royal Mint."

"These people... It was all because of that item? and become smart? " Mao Tou pointed to MaggieQ's pocket and said with a trembling voice, "Then we … "Doesn't that mean …"

"It's not that simple. The Golden Stone will take the initiative to choose its master. To others, it's just that it chooses the next protector of the sages and the courier." The Daoist said, "Perhaps this is where the legend of the King Xu Yan's three eyes turning from stone to gold came from. He obtained some metal and stone, but did not acquire any intelligence.

"We Chinese are just so unlucky. Since when did you say that? For thousands of years, not a single one has been chosen since Confucius era began? " Mao Tou said again.

The Daoist sighed and said, "You can't put it like that. The history of mankind... Or perhaps the history of the universe is counted in tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of years. You might think that two thousand years is a very long time, but from the perspective of history, two thousand years is just a blink of an eye. Perhaps in the next thousand years, the people selected will gather in the east. "

The Taoist paused before continuing, "Even …" It was possible that the Golden Stone would choose a species other than humans, allowing them to suddenly gain intelligence and thus replace humans, just like how Homo sapiens had replaced the Neanderthals back then. "Hopefully, we won't end up as their food in the future …"

At this moment, the Taoist suddenly stopped talking. The scratching sounds coming from the coffin and the moaning sounds coming from the monsters became clearer. When I thought about the living dead people outside with their mouths wide open, I couldn't help but shiver.

"With these sages at the center, they surround many organizations, such as the Pythagorean Church, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Zion, and the Freemasons …" The Taoist looked at MaggieQ and paused before saying, "... Skeleton Society etc., these organizations could be said to be controlling the lifeline of the entire world … These organizations do not know that they come from the same source, and some of them even have a deep grudge against each other. However, every organization's sole mission is to protect the sages, and most importantly, to protect the core secrets that the sages possess! "

"Core secret?" I curiously asked, "What core secret?"

The Taoist shook his head and said, "No one knows, at least not someone of my level. But what is certain is that this secret is not some good news, but something that could threaten the survival of mankind!"

The prefect continued, "In 1936, the scientific community discovered a batch of letters from Newton, which showed that, after studying the law of gravity for 50 years, Newton had been engaged in a secret study and had even written more than 4,500 pages of manuscripts. In his letter to the Father of Modernization, Robert. In Boyle's letter, he advised Boyle to keep his mouth shut when he mentioned the secrets they had. 'This cannot be made public,' Newton wrote.

Listening up to here, my heart suddenly thumped. Recalling the treasures that the Daoist previously told me about Solomon, as well as the secret guarded by the Knights Templar, I asked:

"This secret... Is it something to do with Solam? "

When the Daoist heard this, he was stunned. After a long while, he slapped his thigh and said, "Why didn't I think of that?"

After that, the Taoist frowned and fell into deep thought. He mumbled to himself in an extremely low voice. I leaned close to his mouth and could barely make out a few words.

"The days of God's wrath... The moon turned blood-red... One by one, the stars in the sky began to fall... Yang Yang unsealed the seventh seal … "The earth is completely silent …"
