In the Name of the Queen

With this note, Roland quickly found relevant information and understood why tourists have the highest authority.

This laboratory was a secret laboratory sponsored by the military at the time.

The main task of the laboratory is to conduct forbidden biological experiments.

Their experiments ranged from ferocious beasts to great apes.

Looking through the information he could find, Roland even found a plan for the fusion of humans and animals.

Unfortunately, before the plan was implemented, the laboratory sank underground due to an accident, and all the laboratory staff died within a short period of time.

If they were given a little more time, they might be able to make even more outrageous experiments.

The scientific research results they left behind are quite rich, but unfortunately they have little significance other than increasing their knowledge.

Learning the art of slaying dragons is of course useless if there are no giant dragons in the world.

The vast majority of life in the Fifth Era has become extinct or evolved in the long process of natural evolution, and the fusion experimental data from that year is no longer useful.

If the soul blood link had not been discovered, this journey would have been a real loss of blood.

Fortunately, fate left a small window while closing all the doors.

Soul-blood link does not belong to any of the known magic systems, nor does it belong to extraordinary abilities. It is closer to witchcraft.

Hearing this name, Roland's spirits trembled.

Detailed records of witchcraft have long been lost to history. The records of witchcraft that can be found today are very simple and very subjective.

In the records of the Magic Empire and major powers in the world, witchcraft is an evil and powerful strange spell.

Even researchers from the Fifth Era have a natural resistance to the witchcraft of soul-blood linking.

The researchers who wrote the paper commented on this witchcraft that the conditions for use are harsh and the side effects are huge, so it is not recommended.

Roland continued to flip through the papers with curiosity, and almost couldn't help but laugh.

Is this considered a side effect?

The soul blood link must have one person as the core and become the cornerstone of the link.

This person must be physically strong and able to withstand various backlashes from the soul-blood link.

The cornerstone person will bear the most damage and gain the most benefits. Roland feels that he does not need to be modest about his responsibility as the cornerstone.

There is also a side effect of hanging up the soul blood link. Unless there is a special method, once established, it cannot be released.

In addition to these shortcomings, the strength of the people building the link should be similar, and there should not be a big gap.

With so many shortcomings, the advantages are naturally outstanding.

The soul blood link can directly increase the vitality and soul strength of the link participants, and can establish a flexible communication method between the link participants that transcends language.

Participants can pass messages directly to other members in emergencies.

In Roland's view, this ability is much more important than directly improving attributes.

It is equivalent to opening the mic for a team strategy copy.

Although the function is simple, it has far surpassed this barbaric era.

Sophia always attacks alone and is never afraid of siege. Although there are countless disadvantages to being alone, you don't have to communicate with your teammates and you can fully exert your combat effectiveness.

All previous operations to besiege Sophia failed because the besiegers had difficulty communicating and were unable to exert their full combat power.

With the soul blood link, you can at least use your full combat power. If you are not an opponent, then you are inferior to others in terms of skills and will be defeated.

Stored together with the information is the medium for activating the soul blood link, an unnamed ring.

Feeling the hot bloody aura and murderous intent of this ring, Roland was secretly frightened, but he was also a little bit happy.

Stroking the restless ring, Roland secretly made a wish to the ring.

"Brother Ring, if you have intelligence, please be patient. I will definitely find the right person to use the soul blood link."

Roland didn't know if the ring was really magical or if it was an accident. In short, the restlessness of the ring gradually subsided after he made a wish.

After putting away the soul blood ring, Roland and Alina walked around the laboratory a few more times, looking for trophies.

With the help of mechanical assistants, they found all the scientific research results and information.

This is "precious information" that would cause a sensation all over the world in the Fifth Era, but would only make people silent in the Sixth Era.

Great research, but unfortunately out of date.

If humans on earth in the 21st century discovered the punching skills of dinosaurs in the Jurassic through archaeology, they would probably be so silent.

After a moment of silence, Roland regained his composure, looked at Alina's slightly depressed expression, and softly comforted:

"Don't be upset. We have gained a lot. It's time for us to go."

Alina also knew that this soul-blood ring was valuable. Since Roland could accept it, there was no need for her to be pretentious, so she nodded and changed the subject.

"Okay, we should go. Maybe we should borrow a few more shovels from the mechanical assistant."

"Dear tourists, please don't worry, it is our task to send guests out." A mechanical voice sounded in my ears.

Since someone is doing it for them, Roland and Alina naturally don't have to work hard.

The mechanical assistant woke up several robots doing hard work and took them to clear the way out.

Mechanical efficiency is higher than that of humans. With the help of excavation robots, tunnels hundreds of meters long were quickly completed.

When Roland and Alina walked out of the tunnel, they were surprised to find that the exit was in the backyard of the observatory.

It was almost late at night, and the sky was full of stars. The blue moon and companion moon were not bright tonight, so it was a good time for stargazing.

Alina cast her eyes towards the snow path on the hillside, looking at the traces left by the violent avalanche, she couldn't help but smile and tease:

"Mr. Avalanche may not have thought that the two tiny humans trapped underneath could have escaped from the ground and come back."

Roland spread his hands and laughed.

"Maybe, Mr. Earth could not have thought that it was just an avalanche, but a tunnel several hundred meters long would have been dug into his body."

The two looked at each other and laughed heartily at the same time.

If they were ordinary people, this avalanche could have killed them.

It's a pity that they are extraordinary people and will not be buried by the avalanche. Naturally, they can't feel the ecstasy of surviving a disaster.

The night is very long, especially in the deserted observatory.

They have experienced too many things tonight and are not in the mood to rest.

Alina simply invited Roland to look up at the stars with an astronomical telescope.

Faced with such a kind invitation, Roland would certainly not refuse.

He was also a little curious about how advanced the astronomical telescopes of this era could be. Could they see the craters on the surface of the blue moon?

With twelve points of curiosity, Roland walked into the observatory.

The huge astronomical telescope is the most important facility of the observatory.

Looking at this astronomical telescope, Roland's surprise was beyond words. Is this the black technology that should have been available in 1795? This is clearly a high-definition astronomical telescope.

A telescope with a mirror diameter of nearly two meters is a super telescope even in modern society.

Looking at Roland's surprised expression, Alina knew that he had never seen such a thing. She pursed her lips and smiled softly, introducing the origin of the telescope to Roland.

"You should know that my father is very interested in archaeology. He once led an official archaeological team to excavate various relics. After losing a lot of people, more than a dozen relics were finally opened."

Thinking of these relics, Alina's originally flying smile gradually dimmed.

Looking at her sad expression, Roland knew that she was remembering her father.

No one can persuade her about this matter. It would have been better if she didn't say it. Alina might cry if she said a few more words.

He had to tell a classic story to coax children.

"Alina, I once heard a romantic legend that people will become stars in the sky after death. Your father may have become a star. Why don't we look for him?"

Roland's story was very touching. Alina's eyes were slightly moistened when she heard it. She wiped the tears with the back of her hand and said softly:

"Thank you, Roland."

After a pause of a few seconds, she wiped away her tears, slowly raised her head, and sighed.

"It's a good story, but I'm not a child anymore. When people die, they go to the underworld, and they have less than one in ten chances to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation and be reborn."

"But whether they can be reincarnated or not, people cannot become stars. Stars are formed by the aggregation of nebulae and dust in the universe, and gradually evolve into stars, planets and satellites. The planet Theia where we are is a satellite orbiting the sun star."

Perhaps because she felt that what she said was too profound, Alina looked at Roland uncertainly and whispered softly:

"If you don't know these, I can teach you slowly."

"Thank you, Teacher Alina, I appreciate your kindness. I am a successor after all, can you respect my knowledge reserves?"

Roland's tone sounded tough, but he was just joking.

He didn't think Alina looked down on him.

From Alina's perspective, although Roland was a well-educated person, he was a writer, and it was not surprising that he was proficient in history, culture and art.

But it was common for liberal arts students in this era not to understand natural sciences.

Even if Roland was a well-known scholar, it was normal for him not to understand astronomy.

Facing Roland's "questioning", Alina just smiled and easily resolved it.

Who would be angry with a smiling super beauty?

What's more, she really has no ill intentions.

"That's good, I can save a lot of time. Student Roland, let's start stargazing."

Roland dared to call her teacher Alina, why didn't she agree. She was so diligent and studious, it was somewhat impolite for her to ignore him.

After this bickering, Roland and Alina felt much better.

With the help of Alina, Roland gradually mastered the use of astronomical telescopes and found the blue moon and the companion moon.

The satellite of the Theia plane is larger than the moon. Due to geological reasons, the starlight it reflects is light blue, which is similar to the color of Uranus.

Stargazing without appreciating the moon always seems to be missing something.

Roland naturally has to observe these two satellites carefully.

Under the "magic mirror" effect of the high-power astronomical telescope, the beautiful blue moon is exposed.

There was no cold beauty-like bright moon, but only various pits and craters.

The bright blue moon was like an ugly woman with the beauty function turned off, makeup turned into bare face, and PS software could not be used, just nakedly exposed in front of Roland.

Roland was surprised to find that there was a figure swaying on the blue moon.

"That is..."

"People." Alina answered very straightforwardly.

Roland's brain was a little insufficient, and there was no such statement in the information he had.

He suddenly thought of a past event and asked softly:

"Is it the God's Punishment Corps?"

The God's Punishment Corps came to the material plane to perform tasks for the gods. After completing the task, it was difficult for them to return to the God's domain directly, and they often stayed in the material plane for a long time.

Over time, the God's Punishment Corps that failed to perform the task last time mostly lived in the material plane or the surrounding companion stars, waiting for the opportunity to continue to act.

This can completely explain the pain.

However, Alina ended the chat with one sentence, "No, it's not the God's Punishment Corps, it's the referee."

"Referee?" Roland narrowed his eyes, somewhat confused.

It is normal to have referees in sports games or variety shows, but what does it mean to have a referee on Blue Moon?

Seeing Roland pondering but without any results, Alina knew that he was probably in a bad mood. She resisted the urge to tease him and explained directly:

"Yes, it is the referee. Think about it, as the return day approaches, everyone above level five is the current combat performance of Sophia. If there is no referee and no restrictions, can the Theia plane withstand it?"

Of course not.

Not to mention higher levels, just a Sophia can plunge this world into a cold hell. If everyone is Sophia, the Theia plane can't withstand it at all.

Recalling the impact that Anthony showed him, Roland had a strange idea.

The existence of referees is to turn the fight that can destroy the plane into a local conflict.

"They are not human beings, but referees born directly from the origin of the universe, responsible for maintaining order and executing the instructions of the origin of the universe!" Roland said casually with his eyes shining.

Alina's body trembled slightly, lowered her head and said faintly:

"This is the result of my father's research for many years, how do you know it?"

Ah, it's a lucky coincidence?

Roland cleared his throat and was about to say a few words when he saw Alina's clear eyes.

He took back the nonsense about the number and said very honestly: "I guessed it."

Guessed it? It was so accurate?

Alina instinctively didn't want to believe it, but looking at Roland's clear eyes, she couldn't say anything.

She continued to share her father's research results.

The universe judge is the judge who is condensed by the origin of the universe with power and laws.

They obey the will of the origin of the universe and supervise the competition of many powerful people within a limited framework after the day of return.

In addition to obeying the will of the origin of the universe, they do not interfere with the affairs of the native creatures of the plane.

They are absolutely fair and absolutely rational. After all, they have been away from human society for too long, so long that they don't even know who the God of Omaiga is.

They just supervise the competition in this plane.

After a moment of daze, Roland realized that he had lost the upper hand in this conversation.

In order to restore the image of a sage in Alina's mind, Roland threw out a more shocking and violent theory.

"I have a bold guess that the sixth return will not open the sixth level, but the sixth and fifth levels, or even the fourth level super strong."

"Is there any basis?" Alina widened her eyes and waited for Roland to perform.

Roland certainly would not let her down and raised his first finger directly.

"If it is a step-by-step return, do you really need so many referees?"

These words can be used as evidence or as a story, but they are not ironclad evidence.

Facing Alina's questioning eyes, Roland threw out more heavyweight evidence.

"With Sophia's strength, even if only one person in the world can be promoted to the sixth level, it must be her."

With her strength, there is no need to run around, even at the cost of fighting with others.

She will become the sixth level naturally if she does nothing and lies there.

Few people would do anything other than profit. No matter how strong Sophia is, she is still a human being, so of course she has other plans.

She forced Sif to grow up as quickly as possible through pressure, and then used Sif as a sacrifice.

Sophia did too many things that could be handed over to her subordinates, so she didn't look like a peerless master.

So she would only want more.

For example, fly directly to rank four.

Is this your plan, Sophia? The smile on Roland's lips gradually solidified.

There is one more reason to fight Sophia to the end.
