Chapter 390 17. Rulers of Divine Iron
With the ancient world as the center, the starry sky is false, because those lights are not the light of the stars themselves, but the neon lights of the steel torrent.
Stars made of steel are rotating in this star field. They number in the tens of millions, surrounding an extremely huge silver-white island in the center. A faint blue light floats below the island, setting off the silver-white whole, like a sea rushing in the dark universe. On the silver-white island, warships leave the nest every moment. From a distance, it looks like endless black spots flying out of the nest.
The origin of the Divine Iron Civilization, Silver Island.
At the same time, it is also the place where the four major rulers gather.
The four rulers of the Divine Iron Civilization rule different directions in this star field, dividing the boundaries with the Great Steel Wall standing in the empty universe. This giant silver island was the origin of rulers in ancient records. Their bodies were molded in the deep underground, and then they were endowed with reason and wisdom. They stood on the earth that was still made of soil at that time and looked up at the stars.
After the Shente Civilization mastered unparalleled knowledge and power, they transformed this land that symbolized the origin into what it is today. In the eyes of the Shentemen, this is a symbol of eternity. It is the birthplace of every Shentemen and the grave they are buried in after death. The advancement of civilization left behind dust and swords for Silver Island. The swords were built in the center of Silver Island by the rulers from all directions and were the last guarantee of civilization.
Now, the rulers have come to this place of origin in their true form. Fleet groups from all directions are docked in different directions of Silver Island. Occasionally, huge mechanical structures will walk past. Exploration lights are constantly scanning the corners of Silver Island. There are even detectors. Point into the darkness of the universe and capture the weak fluctuation information in the universe.
With the huge roar of the propeller, the first ruler stepped on the silver ground of Silver Island, bearing the emblem of the eagle. The eagle wears a black top hat and holds a staff in one hand. Every time it takes a step, the staff hits the ground, making a heavy and regular beat. The face under the top hat is solemn and restrained, but the finest ocean blue steel that makes up his body will not rust, so it is impossible to judge his age.
The eagle lowered his head and looked at the indicator. Several dots were moving on it. Soon, when the dots on the indicator stopped, the eagle also raised his head and looked at the open space ahead.
Several other rulers appeared separately.
The deer's body is huge, and the huge branched antlers on its head are the symbol and glory of their family. Even the robe that covered its body couldn't completely cover the pair of big horns. The fox stood next to the deer and arrived with the deer. She wore a dark purple dress that swept the floor, with the brilliance of data flowing on it. Those lights were the main material that made up this dress.
Where's the snake?
Eagle frowned.
The indicator shows that the other party has clearly arrived.
"Hi! Everyone, long time no see! Did you miss me?" Just as Ying was thinking, a burst of cheers sounded from above.
A bright yellow figure descended from the sky, and the tail of its propeller was like a golden snake crawling around in the universe. The snake grinned wildly, and its face was made of scale-like iron sheets that opened and closed, expelling a large amount of processed waste energy. It turned out that it had indeed arrived, but instead of being sent directly to Silver Island by the guards, it jumped off the battleship itself.
Snake cheers and shouts resounded over Silver Island.
The deer seemed dissatisfied. It hated being perverse.
As for the fox, he was expecting a fight between the deer and the snake. The rulers did not take that human being's declaration of war to heart. They gathered on Silver Island this time for other more important things.
"Boom!" After the snake landed, the eagle tapped the ground with his scepter.
"Okay."
"It's been two hundred years since the last Silver Conference, and I don't want to waste time." Eagle glanced at the other three rulers, saw them taking out something, and tapped the ground gently.
"Buzz——!" With a muffled sound, lines of corresponding colors lit up where the four rulers stood, and there seemed to be the sound of gears turning under their feet, roaring, causing the movement of the entire plate under their feet. Then the entire area shook and began to gradually sink.
The rulers remained motionless, they were used to it.
Around the sinking ground, red warning lights flashed continuously, illuminating the underground of Silver Island. Looking up, the vacancy on the ground has closed, and the silvery white light cannot be seen. In the empty underground there are only layers of steel and some specimens of ancient things hanging around the settlement ladder. "It's not the first time we've come into contact with that kind of life, but it's the first time it's so powerful. This is what we said during our last regular projection meeting." During the process of sinking, the eagle spoke, its voice low and powerful.
"But I didn't expect that this perception would be changed in such a short period of time. In two hundred years, I would actually see two ancient beings that I had never faced in the past long time. Another life entity, with unknown purpose. Everyone. Understand the invitation that thing sent us." The eagle continued, and it took out a scarlet talisman with unknown ancient writings on it.
"Indeed, it is another equally powerful life entity." The deer muttered, and it also took out an invitation, the same scarlet color, and the same ancient characters.
"To be honest, this feeling is not good. I always feel like I am being targeted by something."
"What does he call himself? I remember that his name is composed of several extremely obscure syllables." Snake looked at Fox aside.
"Master Hao Miao Gamu." The fox spit out a few syllables that were not divine iron at all.
"There is also Li Chengqi's declaration of war. Although he himself cannot pose a threat to us, behind him is a giant beast that cannot be handled. Even if we have never observed this giant beast leaving the planet, nothing should become Conclusion. Coupled with the appearance of another mysterious life, the situation is now a bit complicated, so I ask you to go here to meet... mother."
After saying that, the eagle raised its head, its expression was extremely pious. At this moment, the sinking plate stopped sinking, and incomparable silver light emerged from the ground, submerging the figures of the four rulers.
At the same moment, in the corner of the star field, the stars watching Silver Island moved slowly and gradually moved away.
…………
"The Divine Iron Civilization." Li Xi'an withdrew his gaze, "They hide a lot of things. Those rulers have disappeared from my sight. I can't see clearly if I go deeper."
"You said they are eyeing you, but the Ten Thousand Food Gods are in the ancient world. You should not be tit-for-tat. This is not good for survival. No predator will conflict when resources are sufficient."
"Or greed, greed for gluttony." Li Chengqi responded.
"If that's the case, then this civilization is more ignorant than I thought."
"Perhaps they are just so ignorant. There are many civilizations in the universe that cannot understand the true glory, and there are countless more that can never get out of their own limitations." Li Chengqi shrugged.
"Master, what do you always say? Take a trip?"
Li Xi'an squinted his eyes, and he caught something unusual.
"An ancestor appeared in this star field. He was well hidden. Unfortunately, I saw him. He kept wandering around the periphery of the star field, confirming something."
Li Chengqi was stunned.
He immediately turned his head and asked Li Xi'an, "Playing with him?"
"It's not necessary."
"I'll go and reason with him, and he'll be willing to tell me why I'm here."
