Chapter 159 Experiment

"Verify that the neutralization device is functioning properly..."

They didn't stay in the sky for too long.

Guiyu needed to verify whether the neutralization device was effective and whether the entire leyline within the control range of the leyline tower could be detonated. To this end, they found an abandoned town and prepared to use it as an experimental subject.

If we fail, the losses will be controlled within an acceptable range.

This town has entered a semi-abandoned state, but the Leyline Tower located in the center of the town is still running stably. It stands in the center of a large number of abandoned buildings, lingering with light. As if the changes around it have nothing to do with it, the Leyline Tower witnesses the rise and decline of the town.

"Is there no danger?"

Ji Lin asked Gui Yu, who nodded slightly and responded while holding the celestial disk.

"No problem. The next cycle of natural disasters will require at least ten days of accumulation."

Then he continued speaking softly.

"After I install the improved neutralization device, I can then actively trigger the source of the Leyline Tower. The chaotic amount of energy will quickly reach the peak capacity, and then trigger the neutralization device."

During these days on the Red Kite, plus the time in the town, she spent all her energy on perfecting the neutralization device, and for this reason she did not take a single step out of her own Chi Yuan.

The villagers coming and going looked at them with numb and hesitant eyes. Most of them were old people. The young people had fled away from this land of right and wrong long ago. They looked at these two people who obviously did not belong to this land prone to natural disasters. People who are indigenous to the land.

The villagers wearing linen clothes all live in houses made of rammed earth, leaving the bottom layer to resist rain and not live underground. Once a heavy rain comes, the turbulent water will flood the ground. Space, drowning the people hiding inside.

Without farming, there is no way to raise livestock.

Relying on wild fruits and wild animals can only support this small population.

Gui Yu is installing a neutralizing device for the earth vein tower, while Ji Lin is looking for an old man who wants to hear the story of 놛 and this town.

The old man looked at the exquisite pastries in the 놛꿛, swallowed his saliva, and accepted Ji Lin's request.

Our town used to be a prosperous place, with tens of thousands of people living permanently. They relied on Xingmai magicians to help them regulate the environment and climate. Every year there was a bumper harvest, and there were more and more people in the town.

It was a good day when food was abundant. Everyone had enough food to satisfy their hunger every day. Even if the official class imposed excessive taxes and increased the amount at each level, all parties took advantage of it at each level. The court's income increased by one cent. We can get a point from our bodies, but even so, few of us will starve to death all year round.

But in order to cope with the complicated taxes, they asked the star pulse magicians to adjust the climate more frequently. Otherwise, they would not be able to support so many people and pay the increasingly heavy taxes.

Every ten years, someone would come and remove something from the Leyline Tower, and someone would put a new one on it, saying that they were helping them maintain the operation of the Leyline Tower, but the old man remembered that his grandfather's generation had never had anything like this. people.

Every time we take away something from the Leyline Tower, the harvest in the field will be reduced by one point.

Then there was an unknown reason for the decrease in production year after year, and the climate was always unstable, but the taxes from the imperial court were not reduced at all. These people fled to other towns that were still wealthy, and then people fled, the land was also depleted, and the imperial tax collectors continued to I have never been here before... I stayed there for dozens of days on a round trip, and my life was affected by a natural disaster.

After listening to the old man's talk, Ji Lin began to sweat.

We don't rely on official records, but from the words of Wang Qing, Gui Yu and the old man, the blueprint of this world has been placed in front of 놛.

The accumulation of contradictions in this society has reached an extreme level. All contradictions have been suppressed simply by relying on the extremely strong productivity brought by the earth's veins and the extreme repressive power. How many such towns are there, and how many are there in this land? Such a town.

population, productivity.

The collapse of Blue Star's dynasty was due to the unprecedented intensity of social conflicts. After several years of development of a dynasty, population growth and land annexation, social conflicts would reach a level that could not be reconciled by the national system. At this stage, the contradiction itself can only be eliminated through the complete destruction of all parties to the contradiction.

Ji Lin stared at the slightly gray sky, was it completely destroyed...

But destroying something can save the world.

The fundamental contradictions that create this world...

Looking up, he saw Gui Yu waving 꿛 to 놛 from a distance, got up and walked over.

Standing next to the girl, she quietly watched the Leyline Tower decompose itself in the flow of light.

Being closer, Ji Lin could clearly see the process of the Earth Line Tower's self-decomposition. A slender beam of light shot up into the sky from the top of the tower, then slowly grew and spread until it swallowed up the entire Earth Line Tower. Because of the Tyndall effect, the light emitted by this beam of light scatters among the dust in the air, scattering a bright path at the edge of the Leyline Tower.

With stars, bright and charming - this is the form that normal people can observe.

This time the self-decomposition lasted longer. Even if Ji Lin saw it once, he would inevitably be shocked by this extremely close observation.

Gui Yu stared at the light beam intently, feeling even more amazed in his heart.

The villagers had never seen such a spectacle before, and they all stood there blankly, unable to wake up for a long time until the light beam disappeared.

Then, the wind picked up, and Ji Lin felt the breeze blowing over his body from top to bottom.

Volume fell back.

The energy flowed back from the sky to the earth, sweeping across all the veins in this area like a wave, breaking up all the original veins and returning them to the earth.

A drop of rain fell on Gui Yu's cheek and slid down. She raised her head and looked up at the sky, blinking her eyes.

The sound of raindrops dripped, and the falling raindrops wet her clothes and hair, sliding down her body.

It was no longer a violent storm brought by a thunderstorm, but a timely drizzle.
