Arknights: Iron-Blooded Savior

"What are the ancestors and the people?"

and learned two new terms from Kelsey, and

Rankopel immediately asked again.

Initially, the two terms were learned from the [AMa-10] database, but their already vague descriptions were flawed. Kelsey

paused and spoke again:

"The ancestors were part of Terra's original biological circulation system, such as the Felin, Pelo, Kuranta and other races you see now, they did not look like this at the beginning.

"In the long years of compatibility with the earth, the bloodlines of the ancestors gradually faded, while the blood of the few ancestors who were still thick retained their previous characteristics.

"For example, Wei Yanwu.

Rankopel nodded understandingly, this is the anthropomorphism of the animal he had guessed at the beginning, and the bloodline still retains more animal characteristics, and asks:

"So the gods?"

"Many of the gods were not born on the earth, but came from the sky, and if we put it in layman's terms, then the ancestors were just ordinary beasts in the ecological cycle."

"And the people of God are the embodiment of incredible fantasy creatures that are truly mythical.

Kelsey closed her eyes, as if the memory traveled back to a long, long time ago, a time nearly 10,000 years ago, and it took Kelsey half a minute to retrieve this history:

"The first destruction of Kazdale was to be hunted by the gods and ancestors.

"Although all the Sakaz people, Goliath, Blood Demon, Flame Demon, Heart Eater, Lich, Banshee, Stone Wing Demon, and even Cyclops, hundreds of dead souls even converged into one, holding the entire Kazdall into the air to confront the gods. "

“...... But the strength of the people of God and the number of ancestors eventually crushed Kazdall.

Another city, Lateran, a city-state founded by Sakaz named Sakota, survived for some unknown reason, and even the gods were reluctant to go near that place.

And throughout, Rutland stood idly by for the destruction of Kazdale.

In the end, Sakaz and Sakota broke off once and for all, and the hatred continued endlessly, the gods roamed the land to explore, and the ancestors huddled to warm up and survive together.

At this moment, the Doctor thought for a moment and said to Kelsey,

"At that time... I wasn't with you yet

, was I?" replied Kelsey

, "Yes, Doctor, it was

quite a long time after I was able to find you and unseal you,

when the Tower of Babel had its original outline.

"And after the destruction of Kazdall, when Sakaz and Sakota were separated, Tikaz's time became history, and for the first time the Sakaz lost their homes and were thrown back into the wilderness."

"And with the increase of various types of population, and the concept of Kazdale and Lateran established by the Tikaz, the gods and ancestors also began to gradually establish their own countries.

At the same time, and from this, the source stone, a product of Terra, began to be discovered as a usable energy source—until then it was just a life-seeking spell that grew on the Tikaz people.

"The country of the Divine People reproduces based on a huge bloodline - the Victoria you can see is finally bred by the pure-blooded red dragons in the Divine People.

"And all the modern Vaifan are the heirs of the red dragon's bloodline.

"The country of the ancestors, in order to avoid natural disasters, carried out a long nomadic life.

"However, the discovery of Genishi's industry led to the construction of mobile cities one after another, and the stable life based on this led to an explosive increase in population.

"But they have low tolerance for ore disease and are also a race that is susceptible to ore disease." Although

Kelsey only spoke in an extremely flat tone, Rankopel seemed to be able to see the epic scene of ancient history.

"At a time when Source Stone was only being used in industry, I was already running around trying to close the status quo as much as possible, and I even really controlled more than one country.

"Everything I did was to guide history as much as possible to the vague direction in my heart, even in the slightest, but fortunately death worked on me in a very special way, and I was able to continue my walk here."

"It's just that time has passed, and mastering the country is no longer simple – everyone has drawn their own ideas from the roar of Victoria's first source stone engine."

"And the historic Dayan, who has mastered the technology of fire forging source stone since ancient times, is also able to use this sharp weapon, Dayan forges martial arts in the world, and uses all its national strength to hunt giant beasts, truly laying the foundation of the country on this land."

"In contrast, Colombia, with a history of just over a hundred years, just relied on the technology developed by the source stone, and in ten years, cars and beast teams began to grab roads, and more than a hundred years later, chip-like buildings gathered into city-states and rose up in the wilderness."

"The source stone that has not yet been awakened reveals the infinite possibilities of civilization to move forward." Kelsey

stared at the sample on the side of the test bench—the pulsating pure golden source stone was already surging around like a living wave, a signal that the world was about to change drastically.

"Even I... It was really impossible to imagine what would happen if the countries on this land saw the true source stone, and the increase in energy conversion alone had reached more than a thousand times.

Kelsey then walked gently to the sample box containing the pure golden source stones, picked them up and placed them in the palm of his hand, and said to Rankopel:

"And... I'm afraid this is not the only characteristic of the source stone. The

Doctor said to Kelsey at this time:

"Kelsey, do you mean that in the direction we just studied, the [homogenization] of the source stone is possible?"

Rankopel walked up to Kelsey and asked her,

"What is the homogenization of the source stone?"

You can take a closer look first, Rankopel.

He nodded and stepped forward to carefully observe the pure golden source stone—and found that this pure golden source stone had been fused with some of the sample boxes.

"They're starting to homogenize the sample boxes that hold them, Kelsey?" asked

Rankopel immediately.

"In fact, this is already the speed at which the activity is strongly suppressed by a special unit inside the sample box, before which we tested various substances in turn. Kelsey

nodded and said to Rankopel:

"From some natural metals, carbides, organic matter to some elements themselves, all of them have been homogenized, but at this time, these source stones have the potential properties of the original homogenized substances.

"If this theory holds, then the source stone can capture, absorb, assimilate and generate any kind of embodied substance... Once this homogenization spreads uncontrollably..."

"The source stone will even pass through the heavenly dome to capture the double moon, and the crystal cluster will then scatter into the universe like a spore, contact and assimilate living beings and dead things, swallow everything into the belly, and then give birth to chaos."

At this time, Rankopel was a little unable to sit still, and he immediately asked Kelsey:

"But in this case, I remember that when I was in Rembito, I finally broke up a whole vein of pure golden source stone and threw it into a volcano.

"If that entire vein of pure golden source stone begins to assimilate with the magma inside the volcano... Kelsey, I don't want to imagine the consequences.

Fortunately, Kelsey's next words dispelled Rankopel's concerns: "Don't

worry, Rankopel.

"I remember what you and the Doctor said was that you smashed that entire vein of source stone into pieces and threw it into the crater, right?"

Kelsey

said to Rankopel:

"Then it's no problem.

"First, the current homogenization of these source stones is random and purposeful, not illogical continuity, which means that they still act in biological logic, and simple transformation is not their ultimate goal.

"Second, the transformation rate of the source stone to the external material is directly proportional to its own size, and if the source stone is only on a small scale, this transformation ability will be greatly reduced.

"But once you get to a certain scale, the conversion speed is drastically fast." "

Previously, considering the situation on your side of Rankopel, we were tested with imitation lava material, but the result was... A source stone crystal the size of a nail piece is instantly inactivated by an imitation lava material of equal size. Rankopel

breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said:

"That's really good, just so close that I was scared half to death."

However, Kelsey's next words made Rankopel look solemn again

: "But we got the most preliminary third point:

adaptability. "

We lowered the temperature and injurious nature of the lava-like material and started to rise in stages.

"The temperature of volcanic lava is usually 700~1200 degrees Celsius, and we have adopted imitation lava materials of 100, 300, 500, 800, 1000, 1500 degrees Celsius step by step.

"Initially, Genshi was severely allergic to harmful high-temperature substances – but as it was tested, its tolerance to high temperatures began to increase dramatically.

"And once a unit of pure golden source stone gains resistance to high temperatures, all source stones in its vicinity also gain high temperature tolerance."

"The distance at which this takes effect is about ten meters. "

Later, its conversion efficiency and adaptability began to run out of control, and we used ultra-high temperature materials of 2,000 degrees Celsius to instantly inactivate it, sacrificing a very small amount of sample."

"In short, according to the calculation of the experimental results of me and the doctor, the source stone vein you broke should be scattered in the magma and instantly inactivated, and there is no time to adapt and the conditions for transformation." Kelsey

gently put the sample box in his hand back on the test bench again, and the pure golden source stone flickered like a breath under the miserable white light in the laboratory.

"This is the result of our current research, although it is only one night, but it is always the first step, and then it will take a long time to precipitate and study." "
