Chapter 97 Blood of the Sun God
[The largest airship in history, the Stairway to Heaven, will set sail for the first time on August 25. ]
[The Stairway to Heaven is manufactured and operated by Paradise Company. ]
[Since its construction, the Stairway to Heaven has attracted much attention. In order to raise funds, it has opened up first-time boarding quotas to multiple companies in Poseidonia City and the sale of goods along the Stairway to Heaven.]
[The famous jeweler and energy provider Magnetic Company will also display the largest piece of sunstone they have excavated on the Stairway to Heaven, and then consider auctioning it depending on the situation. ]
[Magnetic Company claims that the sunstone has an extremely special shape. ]
[This special sunstone has attracted much attention. ]
[]
Poseidonia. Magnetic Sunstone.
Could it be.
While thinking, Yao Yan moved his eyes down from the newspaper to another piece of paper.
A map, or a structural diagram.
However, the standard one next to it is not the "Stairway to Heaven", but an airship named "Giant God".
However, judging from the size standard above, it is smaller than the "Stairway to Heaven".
It seems that the man whose body he had taken over is targeting the Stairway to Heaven.
After thinking for a moment, Yao Yan took a book from the bookshelf next to him and opened it.
Sunstone is a special mineral in the worldview of this world and an important source of power in this world.
Its property is that after being irradiated with light, it will cause the water in direct contact with the surrounding to evaporate.
[Current research believes that sunstone can generate high heat when directly exposed to light, but its own mass does not reduce the heat supply.]
Yao Yan tapped the table with his right hand, looking at the description of sunstone in the book, thinking:
"The reason for taking the airship route is because the heat supply of sunstone is limited?"
Unfortunately, he didn't know much about these things during his lifetime, and didn't know much about thermal power such as the calorific value of fuel.
Soon, he gave up thinking about this problem.
It is not very helpful to study the historical development in this trial space.
After all, the worldview of these worlds is outlined by the ideas of a certain person or a certain group of people.
It is not surprising that there is a world that is flat earth.
Judging from the previous trial spaces, even conflicting natural laws can coexist in these worlds.
Putting the book away, Yao Yan stood up.
According to the introduction when entering, there should be someone in this world targeting thieves.
What happened in this trial space should also be centered on these thieves.
While thinking, Yao Yan took out another pile of newspapers.
The newspapers recorded one theft case after another.
And his sight was focused on one of them:
The "Giant's Eye" theft case, a report of the theft of an eye-shaped stone sculpture.
Looking at the report, Yao Yan's eyes turned to a huge stone sculpture of an eyeball that was larger than the head in the corner of the room.
The original owner of his body was a notorious thief.
No, should it be called a robber? A thief?
In every theft, he would cause considerable damage, and he loves giant-related artworks.
"Hand of the Giant"
He also has the title of Phantom Thief.
From the memory of the original owner, he also had deliberate performance behavior.
Moreover, it was not just him, this behavior itself was already a common practice among other theft criminals.
The original owner of this body was just a person who "inherited traditions".
When the memory turned to this point, Yao Yan came to the cabinet again and took out a book:
"I just decided not to care about history, but I was forced to break my promise in less than a minute."
[Mythology and Sunstone]
[Legend has it that the Sunstone was stolen from heaven by thieves on earth. ]
[The fire thieves killed the sun god. ]
[The black snake that stole fire tied up the sun god and swallowed his torso. ]
[The giant that stole fire dismembered the sun god and took away his legs. ]
[The strange bird that stole fire grabbed his head and took out his eyeballs. ]
[The fire-stealing hound tore his arm and carried off his bones. ]
[The temple guards hunted down the fire thieves, captured them and executed them. ]
[]
[The blood of the sun god fell into the sea, forming the sun stone, which made the ocean boil. ]
A myth story.
A story that reminded him of several myths.
The most conspicuous one was undoubtedly "stealing fire".
However, dismembering the sun god involved another myth.
Devouring the sun god involved another myth.
The strange bird that took away the eyeball was another myth.
And the hound
Shaking his head, Yao Yan turned his gaze to the other side.
Who knows how many people's thoughts and memories are mixed in this trial space to form this myth and worldview.
But, the more important thing is
What is the relationship between this myth and this trial space, and the worldview of this world?
The various drama-related descriptions in the introduction instructions, such as the words of performing a big play, made him pay attention.
It seems that this world may not only be a "technological world", and the "sun stone" may really be related to the "sun god".
In this way, his ability to use abilities seems to be a side proof?
After a brief thought, Yao Yan continued to turn the pages of the book.
However, he did not find more detailed information.
The description of the myth is very brief. In addition to the sun stone, the only related objects are the fire-stealing snake, the fire-stealing giant, the fire-stealing bird, and the fire-stealing hound.
As for the relationship between this city and these fire thieves, there is no record.
Although I don't know what the specific relationship is, and I don't know whether what is recorded in this book is true, but it is certain that "there is a relationship".
Let's take a look at the situation first.
Yao Yan drew several patterns on the paper.
The original owner of this body was a thief "giant".
And there are indeed three thieves active in this world: "Black Snake", "Hound" and "Strange Bird".
Next, I will pay more attention to the surroundings of these three thieves and things related to the "Sun Stone", and I should be able to find some clues.
After determining the course of action, Yao Yan came to the window, pulled open the curtains, and looked at the city in his field of vision.
This strange city that has taken another technological route, what kind of drama will the thieves who symbolize the fire thieves perform?
A drama equivalent to dismembering the sun god? And then die in the hands of the temple guards?
What kind of weird symbolism is this.
Shaking his head, Yao Yan closed the window and left the room.
Thieves should have the habit of scouting the place.
To play a thief, you must also be familiar with the process.
Downtown Poseidonia.
Outside the airport.
One after another, airships rise from the airport or land in the airport.
In the center of the airport, a huge airship, even bigger than the airport's main building, was quietly parked in the center.
Guards were patrolling the airport one after another.
