Chapter 570 Holy Land Scholar

No. 1 looked at both directions of the road, and then asked Dong Chen, who was squatting there looking at the ruts, "Sir, there are two directions now, which way should we go?"

Dong Chen stood up, patted the dust on his hands and asked, "Where are we now? What are the places around us?"

Number 1 projected a map in front of Dong Chen and said, "Sir, we are here now. On the left is the newly discovered underground ruins and a small tribe. On the right is the big city and several small tribes."

"In that case, this road or the roads it connects should be able to connect these places. Maybe the Arc Light people here already know about the ruins." Dong Chen said while looking at the map.

After thinking about it, Dong Chen pointed to the hill and said, "Then let's go to the ruins first and see if we can find anything, and then go to the big city."

"Okay, sir," No. 1 nodded and said, waving his hand to add a mission mark on the map and then asking Dong Chen, "There will be a small tribe passing by on the road. Do you want to stop by and take a look?"

"I think we can observe them secretly first. After all, we don't speak their language now, and communication will be a problem when we get there." Looking at the small Arclight tribe pointed at No. 1, Dong Chen pondered, "But it's okay Install a few monitors around that tribe and see if we can learn anything."

"Okay, sir."

After deciding on their first destination after landing, Dong Chen and No. 1 stayed here for a while before setting off again.

The feeling of walking on the road is very different. Not only are there no obstacles from the messy plants, but I also often make new discoveries.

Because the focus was different, what was discovered was not new species to the earth, but a lot of man-made garbage, or evidence of the existence of civilization, was discovered on the road.

Just like the white garbage on the earth, it is garbage and pollution to the earth. Even for humans, it is "useful when used and troublesome when used up". However, for the development of human civilization as a whole, it is It is indeed a strong evidence.

If you want to make a small plastic bag, it is really impossible if civilization has not developed to a certain level.

The garbage Dong Chen saw on the roadside now included damaged wooden boards and rags. He also saw broken glass bottles and twisted metal parts discarded aside.

It's okay to say that wooden boards or rags are still available when technology and society have developed to a relatively low stage, and you won't feel bad if they are used up. But these glass bottles and metal parts are thrown away casually. This is obviously a sign that technology and society have developed. It has reached a certain relatively high stage, even these things are broken.

This is the case with the Arc Star. Although the intelligent creatures of its generation are not good enough, they cannot withstand the prehistoric civilization.

Moreover, the prehistoric civilization of Arclight Star is different from the legends of "prehistoric civilization" on Earth. There are more than one prehistoric ruins here, and the Arclight people of this era have indeed benefited from them.

"No. 1, have the test results come out? How is the water quality here? How is it different from water on Earth?"

On the way, Dong Chen saw another piece of garbage, and then he went to check it out. With experience in playing "Fallout 4" and actually navigating the world of radiation, he could say that he was familiar with it.

While checking, I remembered the river water samples collected from the river before, so I asked the number one while looking at the patterned wood chips.

"The results are out, sir," No. 1 said while flying. "The water on the Arc Star is similar to the water on Earth, except that it contains slightly different trace elements. Theoretically speaking, humans can drink it directly. "

Dong Chen nodded after hearing this and said, "This is good news. Is there anything strange about these detected elements? Are they all on the periodic table of elements?"

"Yes, sir, the elements detected so far are all on the periodic table, and no new elements have been discovered yet." No. 1 said with certainty.

"Yes," Dong Chen nodded.

Although the periodic table of elements on the earth is indeed incomplete and there should be many new elements in the universe, it is still very difficult to find new elements on a planet that is so similar to the earth, so he just asked casually.

Just as No. 1 and Dong Chen were on the road to the ruins, the big city that was their other destination was also discussing things about the ruins.

In a huge stone building, rows of wooden bookshelves are neatly placed. It looks like it should be a library.

And several gray-haired people looked very small compared with the tall library. Elderly arc-light people wearing exquisite white robes sat around a table and calculated something. There were also several similarly short figures on the bookshelves. Looking for something.

There were many books written in strange characters on the table. They were all spread out and piled there, leaving only a small space for the few elderly Arclight people who were doing calculations with pens and paper.

Just when everyone was immersed in calculations, an Arclight man with his gray hair spread out threw away the pencil in his hand, took off his reading glasses and rubbed his eyes and said, "Oh, the results are out, this formula is also No, the answer calculated by applying it has two extra digits, which is not good at all, it doesn’t match up.”

"What? Olaf, isn't that formula of yours wrong?" An Arclight man next to Olaf also raised his head from the book, put down the pencil in his hand and looked at Olaf and said, "We all agree that your formula It is one of the formulas closest to the truth, and we have already calculated it to the extreme, but we didn’t expect that it still doesn’t work.”

"Yes, Mountain Peak," Olaf looked at his long-time work partner next to him and sighed, "If it doesn't work, it won't work. Whatever is closer to the truth is not the truth."

The calculation area, which was originally quiet except for the rustling sound of pencils and paper, suddenly heard their voices. The calculation process of others also stopped and they all raised their heads to look at Olaf.

Looking at their questioning looks, Olaf repeated what he had just said to Shanfeng, and the tired faces of the others suddenly looked a bit ugly.

Feeling that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit solemn and depressing, Olaf, the person involved, smiled and patted his head and said, "Haha, look at your expressions, isn't it just another mistake? It's not like everything failed. We have experienced it before. A lot of that.”

As he spoke, he pulled on the golden bracelet with exquisite inscriptions beside him. After pulling twice, he continued, "It may be that I am too old. After all, I am 127 years old. There may be an error in the calculation process. Otherwise, our results will not allow those young scholars to perform secondary calculations, so we should wait for the calculation results of young scholars outside. They are much smarter than me and their thinking is quicker."

As soon as Olaf finished speaking, a young Arclight man wearing a white robe opened the door and walked in quietly.

The young man stood respectfully next to Olaf and asked softly: "Dear Scholar Lock-Olav Holy Land, what are your orders?"

After the young man finished asking, Olaf picked up the stack of calculation paper in front of him and handed it to him and said, "This is the result of this calculation. You can take it and let them do a second calculation."

The young man took the manuscript paper respectfully and said, "Yes, Your Excellency, the great scholar of the Holy Land, Locke Olaf."
