Chapter 397 Ancient and Future, Mysterious Helmet
The core area of Tianqi City.
"This core area is really lively..."
Compared to the huge commercial area of Tianqi University, the flow of people in the core area is even more exaggerated, and it can even be said that it is crowded.
"Is it because it is close to the parliament?"
Jiang Chen looked at the towering parliament building opposite and thought thoughtfully.
The parliament building is where the federal parliament handles all federal affairs.
Almost all decisions that will affect the future direction of the federation are issued from this building.
It can be said that this is the largest power center of the entire federation.
"However, I really didn't expect that the Six Paths Temple would be set up opposite the parliament center, and it is so... emmm, luxurious?"
Looking at the extremely luxurious museum in front of him, Jiang Chen really couldn't think of any other more suitable adjectives.
Originally, seeing the teacher's mysterious look, Jiang Chen thought that the Six Paths Temple would be a very low-key mysterious area.
For example, an inconspicuous small shop, and an old grandfather who looks ordinary but is actually a super strong man sitting inside.
At least it won't be such a high-end museum that looks very cool at first glance!
Why is it cool?
Because it is golden all over!
"Is this considered a great hidden treasure?"
Jiang Chen smiled and then walked towards the museum.
The name of the museum is also "Six Paths", but this museum has nothing to do with the temple, but it looks very modern.
High-tech gate, high-tech booth, high-tech reception robot...
Everything here uses mechanical means far beyond current technology, which is somewhat similar to the settings in the Starry Sky Gate.
"Speaking of which, Apocalypse University also specially cleared tomorrow's time, and it happened to be the day when the teacher asked me to come to the Six Paths Temple."
Jiang Chen stroked his chin: "Could it be that Apocalypse University really has something to do with the Six Paths Temple?"
"At least, they must know what's going on here."
Thinking of the mysterious operation of Apocalypse University, Jiang Chen thought it was possible, and he stopped wasting time and visited the Six Paths Temple.
The task assigned by the teacher is tomorrow, but there is no competition today, and he has nothing else to do for the time being, so he can just visit it.
By the way, let's also find out what kind of place the teacher attaches so much importance to.
"Don't forget tomorrow's task."
This is the text message that Jiang Chen just received, and it was sent by Cao Xiong.
Although the content is very short, Jiang Chen can see that the teacher really cares about this matter.
But other than that, the teacher is unwilling to mention any details, just once again emphasizing the time and address.
The more Cao Xiong is like this, the more Jiang Chen feels that this place is mysterious.
Unlike these high-tech booths, the things displayed inside are quite old.
Many things are antiques and cultural relics before the Dawn Calendar, with a strong sense of age, which forms a sharp contrast with these ultra-modern booths.
But this contrasting combination of ancient and future adds a touch of charm to the Liudao Museum.
It is precisely because of this that there are quite a lot of people visiting here.
However, Jiang Chen did not find what he wanted to see.
"Although it is very high-end, it is just an ordinary museum. Why does the teacher care so much?"
As a wildlife photographer, Jiang Chen is not interested in other things, so he is too lazy to take pictures and soon visited the museum.
It's just that there is nothing special here except those ordinary cultural relics.
"Since the teacher asked me to come here, it must be related to extraordinary creatures. In other words, I don't need to look at the things before the Dawn Calendar."
Jiang Chen thought for a while and walked towards another exhibition area.
There were documents and items after the Dawn Calendar. Jiang Chen had just walked around, but didn't see any clues.
But now that I think about it carefully, the only thing that might be related to the teacher's mission should be here.
But after Jiang Chen looked through everything here, he still didn't find anything special.
"Did I miss something?"
Jiang Chen's eyes swept through the many documents present, and the important nodes of mankind since the Dawn Calendar kept flashing in Jiang Chen's mind.
[The first year of the Dawn Calendar: Mysterious black clouds covered the world, and human technology completely lost its effect. At the same time, the world began to change, and all animals and plants except humans gave birth to intelligence and attacked humans.
Half a year later, the human world was on the verge of extinction. A ray of colorful light dispelled the black clouds, and some evil spirits regained their sanity. Humans survived and marked this year as the first year of the Dawn Calendar. 】
【The fifth year of the Dawn Calendar: Ye was the first to discover the method of controlling the spirit space, and successfully reached a contract with extraordinary creatures, which allowed them to control pet spirits to fight. The first batch of masters were born in the Federation, and the territory was gradually recaptured. Humans entered their first highlight moment. 】
[In the 19th year of the Dawn Calendar: the first Moon-level evil spirit was born in the wilderness, easily destroying more than 20 shelters of mankind.
In the same year, some lands began to mutate, and humans and extraordinary creatures who entered them would die strangely, and humans named it the Forbidden Land. ]
[In the 35th year of the Dawn Calendar: Humans gave birth to their own Moon-level envoys, who led a group of Starlight envoys into the wilderness, breaking the spirit's rule over the wilderness, and at the same time recaptured some shelters. ]
[In the 37th year of the Dawn Calendar: Humans successfully explored a forbidden land, and used what they obtained from the forbidden land to master the ability to use life cores to create treasures, and humans entered the second high-light era. ]
[……]
Jiang Chen was also clear about this history before. There was almost no difference between what the Joint Office published and what was recorded in the documents. Jiang Chen thought about it for a long time but couldn't see any clues.
"The first year of the Dawn Calendar was the beginning of a huge change in the supernatural power, but the turning point that made humans and evil spirits become mortal enemies was the birth of the forbidden land."
"Both major events had a great impact on humans. If the clues are really here, perhaps they are concentrated in these two time periods?"
The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and he immediately ran to the booths of these two time points to check.
First is the first year of the Dawn Calendar.
Most of the bodies displayed here are the remains of supernatural creatures killed by humans with remaining weapons before they mastered supernatural powers.
Although the level is not high, perhaps because of the first batch of infections, these corpses still exude a strange breath.
It seems that the supernatural power brought by the black cloud has not yet dissipated from these corpses.
"It can cause such a big change in the whole world, and the origin of the black cloud is also worth studying."
Jiang Chen whispered softly.
In human records, the half year covered by the black cloud is called the Dark Calendar, and the real Dawn Calendar is actually counted from the time when the colorful light broke the black cloud.
But it is undeniable that the black cloud is the source of the birth of extraordinary creatures.
Just think about it carefully, the extraordinary creatures born under the cover of the black cloud are very aggressive and irrational, so there is the saying of evil spirits.
And the creatures born after the Dawn Calendar are obviously much more rational, at least not so crazy.
Perhaps, the black cloud and the colorful light are both the source of the birth of extraordinary creatures, but they are just directed in different directions.
If you count it this way, the things around the first year of the Dawn Calendar should be most related to the tasks assigned by the teacher.
But he has been wandering around for so long, except for being able to feel some special breath, there is nothing else to gain.
"If the beginning is not good, then go to the turning point to see."
Jiang Chen quickly came to the vicinity of the resources excavated in the 19th year of the Dawn Calendar.
Compared with the products of the first year, the evil spirit corpses here do not have those strange breaths.
Instead, some of the excavated stones and soil gave Jiang Chen a strange feeling.
It's like being in a forbidden land.
"Are these soil samples from the early forbidden land? There is still such a smell even after leaving the native land."
Jiang Chen approached these with some curiosity and started to check them out.
The farm has a strong sense of the forbidden land, and sometimes it will produce some unexpected behaviors.
Maybe this time, he can rely on the farm to trigger the task assigned by the teacher in advance.
Ahem...
It seems that I am treating the teacher as a task NPC, which is really rude.
However, what disappointed Jiang Chen was that although these soils have the smell of the forbidden land, the farm obviously did not like them.
Don't mention unexpected behaviors, there is not even a fluctuation.
"Obviously, there would be a reaction when approaching the forbidden land before, but now the appetite has become picky."
Jiang Chen scratched his head, no longer pinning his hopes on these strange things, and gave up the idea of triggering in advance, and honestly wandered around.
Anyway, the time given by the teacher is tomorrow, so this little bit of time is not bad.
It just so happens that he can also take a look at the history of the Dawn of Humanity here. He didn't feel anything when he read it in books before, but now with the real thing, it has a new flavor.
"Well, what is that?"
But before Jiang Chen took a few steps, he found a strange thing.
Or rather, something that had never appeared before.
On the exhibition stand of the thirty-seventh year of the Dawn of Humanity, a metal object shaped like a helmet appeared at some point.
"This thing... Why does it look a bit like a game helmet in a novel?"
Jiang Chen had such a thought in his mind without any reason.
Although it was a bit old, Jiang Chen could still see the other party's specialness at a glance.
At least it was definitely not something like a battery car helmet.
But this was not the key point, but this thing just suddenly appeared!
"Could it be that I was just a blind cat that met a dead mouse and really triggered the task in advance?"
Jiang Chen's mouth twitched. Although he wanted to trigger it in advance, it was just a thought. He was not used to it when it was really triggered.
"It shouldn't be such a coincidence..."
With some hesitation, Jiang Chen walked towards the helmet.
Buzz buzz buzz...
Suddenly, the farm trembled, and the helmet suddenly shone with a golden light.
Then, Jiang Chen felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and he lost consciousness instantly.
And before he fainted, Jiang Chen vaguely heard some strange sounds in his ears.
[Welcome to the world of six paths]
