Chapter 299 Records
As the circuits were paralyzed, the Aurora base fell into darkness again. Fortunately, after an experience, they were not too confused this time. Successive footsteps and noises sounded from a distance, as if they were alerting the enemy.
Tan Xin returned to the passage on the fourth floor with a tired face, where a red-haired figure was already waiting for him quietly.
"killed?"
"……Um."
Hong Xiu glanced at the fourth floor, "Killing the leader shouldn't be that simple."
"I know." Tan Xin nodded, "But it should be able to delay it for a while...and I got this."
Tan Xin took out a thumb-sized bottle from his pocket. The bottle contained a strangely shaped miniature tongue... like some kind of sacrificial vessel.
"In the past three hundred years or so, all the test records, research processes, and experimental results that Aurora Base has done on Lord Aurora are all contained in this sacrificial vessel... It reproduces all the details of Lord Aurora, and it is the result of everyone's hard work over the years. Crystallization, although it did not succeed in the end, it can at least provide some reference to other realms.”
Tan Xin handed this thing to Hong Xiu's hand with great solemnity.
"In short, if something goes wrong with it, the three hundred years in the Aurora Realm will be reduced to nothing... Now it will be handed over to you."
"You want me to be sent to other realms?"
"Yes." Tan Xin smiled, "You are the ceiling of our Aurora City's combat power, the leader of Shura in the world... There should be very few people on this planet who can snatch things from your hands, even if it's a realm train. If it explodes, you can take it out unscathed...
I feel most at ease leaving this thing to you. "
Hongxiu put the bottle away solemnly, "Are you really not going to leave?"
"I'm not leaving, I've given away all my tickets." Tan Xin paused for a moment, "You don't have to persuade me... From the moment I gave the order to abandon the seven regions, I was ready to face this day. I have to Someone is responsible for all this, isn't there?"
Hong Xiu took a deep look at Tan Xin, and instead of trying to persuade her, she nodded calmly:
"I see."
"...It's time for me to leave the base."
Tan Xin stretched out a hand and paused in the air. He looked at Hong Xiu and smiled slightly: "It's a pleasure to work with you, Sir Hong Xiu."
Hongxiu also stretched out her hand to hold it and answered seriously,
"……Me too."
Tan Xin retracted his palm and walked to the upper level of the base without looking back. As his windbreaker disappeared into the darkness, Hong Xiu let out a long helpless sigh...
…
"Have you ever listened to the record?"
Han Meng leaned against the car in the cold wind, looking at the aurora above his head that was so thin that it almost disappeared, and Tan Xin's words echoed in his ears again.
"When the stylus rubs against the tiny grooves on the surface of the record, the vibrations will convert the singing voice that has long been engraved into electrical signals... That singing voice may have come from a few years ago or decades ago, and it records a certain period of time in the past. The joy and anger will be preserved forever, until someone puts it on the record player, and the past will reappear in the world. "
"I want to burn Aurora City into a record."
"We have been studying Aurora for more than three hundred years. Although we have not gained much during this period, we have discovered some phenomena... The magnetic field around Aurora can be compatible with the soul of human beings after death, which means The human soul is essentially just a special magnetic field... at least in the realm of Aurora."
"Theoretically speaking, as long as we increase Aurora's magnetic field, we can process human souls and engrave them on the sky with a special frequency like songs."
"Replace the sound with the soul, replace the record with the sky, replace the needle with Aurora's special magnetic field... Even if the physical Aurora City is destroyed, we will re-engrave everything in the sky and keep it for at least three hundred years."
"If within these three hundred years, someone cracks the secret of the Red Meteor, or becomes the second Aurora Lord, they can read this record again."
"At that time, Aurora City will also reappear, and the three million living beings in the city will also have the possibility of being rescued."
"I know this sounds outrageous, but this is indeed the last method that Dr. Yi and I can think of, and its success rate is a full 60%... Human beings today cannot save Aurora City, so, We can only place our hope in the future. Maybe one day in the future, Aurora City will usher in salvation."
"This plan...is the 'Hand of Redemption'."
Han Meng let out a long sigh.
When he learned about the "Hand of Redemption" plan, Han Meng felt the shock from the depths of his heart for the first time. Turning Aurora City into a "record" was a possibility he had never imagined, but when he thought about it carefully... This may be the only way out for Aurora City.
Even if the Aurora Realm disappears, humans still have seven realms left. Maybe these seven realms can finally make a breakthrough? No matter what, this probability is much higher than the 0001% of the "reappearance" plan.
Just when Han Meng was still immersed in the shock brought to him by Tan Xin, a figure slowly rose from the elevator.
Behind Tan Xin, there was a black box on his back. He walked straight to Han Meng. From this distance, Han Meng could even see the remaining blood stains on his cheek...
Tan Xin went down to kill someone? Who did he kill?
"Han Meng, you have one last chance to regret it." Tan Xin looked at him calmly, "Tell me your choice."
Han Meng was silent for a moment, "I agree with your plan."
After getting this answer, Tan Xin's mouth corners slightly raised, "Very good, then you must listen carefully to every word I tell you next... because from now on, our opponent is the entire law enforcement system."
"You say." Han Meng did not react to this, because from beginning to end, he had never been close to the law enforcement system.
Tan Xin's lips opened and closed, revealing his overall plan. Han Meng pondered for a long time and nodded slightly.
"I understand."
"Okay... now, do what you should do."
"What about you?"
Tan Xin patted Feixue on the hem of his windbreaker, carrying the black box, and walked alone into the depths of the cold wind,
"I'm going to find Aurora... and then, kill him."
...
"Use magnetic field to burn soul records?" Chen Ling's eyes showed surprise after reading the description of the Hand of Redemption plan.
"Very surprising, right? I had the same reaction when I heard it." Wen Shilin sighed, "Tan Xin started planning this plan a long time ago, and even had the Aurora Base secretly build a magnetic pole amplification controller... but it's hard to say whether it will work."
"Whether it works or not, it must be based on the Aurora Lord's own magnetic field, right?"
"That's right, and the Aurora Lord's magnetic field, in essence... is his soul."
