Bankruptcy beast

The core area of ​​Tianqi City.

"This core area is indeed very lively..."

Compared with the huge commercial area of ​​Tianqi University, the flow of people in the core area is even more exaggerated. It can even be said to be a sea of ​​people.

"Is it because it's close to the Parliament?"

Jiang Chen glanced at the towering parliament building opposite, 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 in the entire federation.

"However, I really didn't expect that the Temple of Six Paths would be located opposite the parliament center. It would be so... emmm, luxurious?"

Looking at the extremely luxurious museum in front of him, Jiang Chen really couldn't think of any other more suitable adjective.

Seeing how mysterious the teacher looked, Jiang Chen originally thought that the Six Paths Temple would be a low-key mysterious place.

For example, there is an inconspicuous little shop, and there is an old man sitting inside who looks ordinary but is actually a super strong man.

At least it won’t be such a fancy, high-end museum!

Why do you say pull the wind?

Because it is all golden!

"Is this considered hiding out in the city?"

Jiang Chen smiled and then walked towards the museum.

The name of the museum is also called "Six Paths", but this museum has nothing to do with the temple. Instead, it looks very modern.

High-tech gates, high-tech booths, high-tech reception robots...

Everything here uses mechanical means that are far beyond the current technology, but it is somewhat similar to the settings in the Starry Sky Gate.

"Speaking of which, Tianqi University also specially set aside time tomorrow, and it happens to be the day when the teacher asked me to come to the Six Paths Temple."

Jiang Chen rubbed his chin: "Could it be that Tianqi 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 Tianqi University, Jiang Chen thought more and more that it was possible, so he stopped wasting time and started visiting 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.

By the way, let’s also understand what it is like that makes teachers pay so much attention to it.

"Don't forget your mission tomorrow."

This was the text message Jiang Chen received just now, and it was from Cao Xiong.

Although the content was short, Jiang Chen could tell that the teacher really cared about this matter.

But other than that, the teacher just didn't want to mention any details, and just emphasized the time and address again.

The more Cao Xiong behaves like this, the more Jiang Chen feels this place is mysterious.

Unlike these high-tech booths, the things inside are quite ancient.

Many things are already antiques and cultural relics from before the Dawn Calendar, and they have a strong sense of age, which is in sharp contrast to these ultra-modern booths.

But this contrasting combination of ancient times and the future adds a touch of charm to the Liudao Museum.

It is precisely because of this that there are quite a few people visiting here.

However, Jiang Chen didn't find what he wanted to see.

"Although it's very high-quality, it's just an ordinary museum. Why does the teacher care so much?"

As a wildlife photographer, Jiang Chen was not interested in other things, so he was too lazy to take pictures and quickly wandered around the museum.

It's just that apart from the ordinary cultural relics, there is nothing special found here.

"Since the teacher asked me to come here, it must have something to do with extraordinary creatures. In other words, I shouldn't need to read anything before the Dawn Calendar."

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and immediately walked towards another exhibition area.

All the documents and items placed there were from 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 may be related to the teacher's mission is probably here.

But after Jiang Chen brushed 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 important nodes of mankind since the dawn of time were also flashing in Jiang Chen's mind.

[Year 1 of the Dawn Calendar: Mysterious black clouds cover the world, and human technology completely loses its effectiveness. At the same time, the world began to mutate, and all animals and plants except humans gave birth to intelligence and launched attacks on humans.

Half a year later, the human world was on the verge of extinction. A colorful light dispersed the dark clouds, and some evil spirits regained their sanity. Humanity survived, and this year was marked as the first year of the Dawn Calendar. 】

[Fifth year of Dawn Calendar: Ye took the lead in discovering the method of controlling the spirit space, and successfully reached a contract with extraordinary creatures, which allowed him to control pet spirits to fight. The first batch of envoys were born in the Federation, and the territory was gradually regained. Humanity entered the first A highlight moment. 】

[Year 19 of the Dawn Calendar: The first moonlight-level evil spirit was born in the wilderness, easily destroying more than 20 human sanctuaries.

In the same year, changes began to occur in some lands. Humans and extraordinary creatures would die strangely when entering them. Humans named them forbidden places. 】

[Year 35 of the Dawn Calendar: Humanity gave birth to its own Moonlight-level envoys, leading a group of Starlight Envoys into the wilderness, breaking the spirit’s rule over the wilderness, and at the same time regaining part of the sanctuary. 】

[Year 37 of the Dawn Calendar: Humanity successfully explored a forbidden land and used the things obtained from the forbidden land to master the ability to use life cores to create noble phantoms. Humanity entered the second era of glory. 】

【……】

Jiang Chen knew this history before, and there was almost no difference between what was announced by the Joint Office and what was recorded in the documents. Jiang Chen thought about it for a long time but couldn't find any clues.

"The first year of the Dawn Calendar was the beginning of great changes in extraordinary power, but the turning point that turned humans and evil spirits into mortal enemies was the birth of the Forbidden Land."

"Both these two major events have had a great impact on mankind. If the clues are really here, maybe they are concentrated in these two time periods?"

The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and he immediately ran to the booth at these two points in time to check it out.

The first is the first year of the Shuguang calendar.

Most of the items displayed here are the remains of extraordinary creatures that humans killed with the help of remaining weapons before they mastered extraordinary power.

Although the levels are not high, perhaps because of the first batch of infections, these bones still exude a strange aura.

It seems that the extraordinary power brought by the black cloud has not dissipated from these bones.

"It can bring about such a big change in the whole world. The origin of that black cloud is also worthy of study."

Jiang Chen murmured softly.

In human records, the half-year covered by dark clouds is called the dark calendar, and the real dawn calendar actually starts when the colorful light breaks through the dark clouds.

But it is undeniable that the black cloud is the source of the birth of extraordinary creatures.

Just thinking about it carefully, the extraordinary creatures born under the cover of black clouds are very aggressive and irrational, so they are called evil spirits.

The creatures born after the Dawn Calendar are obviously much more rational, at least not so crazy.

Perhaps, black clouds and colored lights are both the source of the birth of extraordinary creatures, but they just lead in different directions.

If we calculate it this way, things around the first year of the Dawn Calendar should be most closely related to the tasks assigned by the teacher.

But after wandering around for so long, he gained nothing except feeling some special aura.

"If it doesn't work at the beginning, then go to the turning point and have a look."

Jiang Chen quickly arrived near the resources unearthed in the 19th year of Shuguang calendar.

Compared with the products of the first year, the evil spirit bones here do not have those strange auras.

On the contrary, it was some quarried stones and soil, which gave Jiang Chen a strange feeling.

It's like being in a forbidden place.

"A soil sample from the early Forbidden Land? It's surprising that this kind of smell can still exist after leaving the homeland."

Jiang Chen curiously approached these people to check them out, and he also felt anxious in his heart.

The farm has a strong sense of the forbidden place, and sometimes it will produce some unexpected behaviors.

Maybe this time, he can rely on the farm to trigger the tasks assigned by the teacher in advance.

Ahem...

When I say this, I feel like I am treating the teacher as a mission NPC, which is really rude.

However, what disappoints Jiang Chen is that although these soils have the aura of a forbidden land, the farm obviously does not like them.

Not to mention any unexpected behavior, not even the slightest fluctuation.

"Obviously, I would react when I was close to a forbidden place before, but now I have a bad appetite."

Jiang Chen scratched his head and no longer placed hope on these strange things. He also gave up the idea of ​​​​triggering it in advance and wandered around honestly.

Anyway, the time given by the teacher is tomorrow, which is not far behind.

It just so happens that he can also read the history of the dawn of mankind here. In the past, it didn't feel like reading it in books, but now it has a new flavor with the addition of real objects.

"Well, what is that?"

But before Jiang Chen could take a few steps, he discovered something strange.

In other words, something that has never appeared before.

On the booth of the thirty-seventh year of the Dawn Calendar, a metal object that looked like a helmet appeared at some point.

"This thing...why does it look a bit like a gaming helmet from a novel?"

An idea popped into Jiang Chen's mind without any reason.

Although a little old, Jiang Chen could still tell the other person's specialness at a glance.

At least it's definitely not a bicycle helmet or anything like that.

But this is not the key, but this thing just appeared out of nowhere!

"Could it be that my blind cat encountered a dead mouse and triggered the mission in advance?"

The corner of Jiang Chen's mouth twitched. Although he also wanted to trigger it in advance, it was just a thought. It really triggered it, and he was still a little unaccustomed to it.

"It can't be such a coincidence..."

With some hesitation, Jiang Chen walked towards the helmet.

Buzz buzz...

Suddenly, the farm trembled, and the helmet suddenly shone with a golden light.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen felt a flash of light in front of his eyes and instantly lost consciousness.

The moment before he fell into coma, Jiang Chen vaguely heard some strange sounds in his ears.
