Chapter 261 The Echo of Immortality (23)

But the content of the next murals is quite lackluster.

Through the bloodline memory and an auxiliary memory organ located in the back of the brain, not to mention ordinary people, at least the leaders and professionals of the past generations can maintain their professional ability and lead the tribe to live.

Sequoia Base originally had the function of a doomsday fortress, with all the internal facilities. As long as you don't forget how to operate it, there is absolutely no problem in surviving.

It was the alternation of life and death for several generations. Gradually, the employees of different functions and professional abilities led by the four leaders gradually transformed into the four major tribes inside the base, and the four leaders became the four tribes passed down from generation to generation. Great Elder.

Although the social structure has degenerated into the tribal system of elders over time, due to the number of people, this may be the most efficient and stable method of governance.

The four tribes communicate with each other and compete for power, but because the internal resources of the ruins are indeed rich, all parties need technology from all parties to ensure the quality of life, so there is no real conflict between them.

When we got here, the colors of the murals suddenly became brighter, and the content was quite interesting.

Ian saw an image of a tall, resolute man with gray hair and sky blue eyes, and a confident smile in the center of this mural.

The man looks ambitious, and the four keys surround him.

Obviously, this man should be the Great Elder during the mural painting periodhe gathered four keys, unified the four tribes, and gathered the power of the Sequoia leaders in one person.

The murals come to an abrupt end here.

Ian closed his eyes, lost in thought.

After a long time, he let out a breath: "It seems that the reason why the natives left the base is related to this great elder."

To enter and exit the gate of Sequoia Base, you must collect all four keys. In the past, Sequoia people did not have this idea, nor did they have this right. Sequoia people were not allowed to enter many dangerous and high-tech areas at will.

There is no need for a hunch, Ian can be 100% sure that all the changes are due to this guy.

Below the unfinished mural is a corpse.

The clothes and tools in the hands of the skeleton are still quite intact. It sits under the mural painted by itself, sitting peacefully and dying.

Ian didn't intend to disturb the ancient Sequoia man's long sleep at the beginning. There are many reasons why the other party didn't complete the next mural, but the cause of death was very simple.

He could see through the silver chip that the other party committed suicide by taking poison, and there were a lot of highly toxic substances remaining on the bones.

However, it was precisely because Ian used the silver chip to scan that he noticed something was wrong.

"Hey, behind this painter..."

With a slight snort, Ian frowned slightly. He stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and leaned the skeleton forward slightly, exposing the wall blocked by the corpse.

There is a mass of rotten handwriting on the wall. It can be seen that when writing it, the owner of the handwriting was very emotional, and it can even be said to be desperate. The trembling handwriting is so obvious.

If it is an ordinary person, there is no way to distinguish these fonts.

But Ian could see it.

Through the auxiliary correction of the silver chip, he read those words softly.

"Madala Qunsen, the great elder of the Four Keys. He went crazy, opened the forbidden door, and modified the echo of the blood of the ancestors..."

The more I watched, the more Ian frowned: "He replaced the mastermind of the inheritance, and we will all become him... We will all die completely, and even our souls will not be at peace!"

"Monster, vicious lunatic, monster who wants to live forever! I curse you..."

The handwriting was corroded by blood, and now it can no longer be seen clearly, but it was just a curse after all, so there is no need to care about it.

And Ian fell silent, he stared at this place, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

"Echo?" The young man frowned, "Eternal life?"

"Is it a coincidence?"

The white people that Ian belongs to used to be a well-known labyrinth scholar family in the imperial capital, the 'Chehalorvo Family'.

They were originally prosperous and enjoyed a lot of glory because of the new development movement initiated by the late Emperor Inaiga II and the "Maze Development Discipline", but because of an extremely secret mistake, the entire family was exiled, and their practice has the sublimation inherited by the Silver Peak Messenger The inheritance of those who were left was abolished, and even all of them were executed.

Outsiders don't know and don't care about this, because during the period of the black tyrant's rule, families and organizations with similar endings were not uncommon... Although the Cehalorvo family was indeed the larger one among all the families that were disposed of , but at most it is just another footnote under the **** debt of the tyrant.

In the eyes of outsiders, everything is like this.

But Ian knew that the reason why the Ciehalorvo family was dealt with was a 'mystery of eternal life' related to 'echo'.

As for the other families dealt with by Inaiga II, they were either playing blood sacrifices, trying to plot rebellion, or committing corruption. To be honest, when I knew these things, Ian didn't have much family honor. Some people who are emotional want to complain for their own family.

Compared with these insects, it really lowers your style!

And here it is, at the end of the world that is far away from the imperial capital, in the Nanling ruins group.

Ian saw the same words again.

"Echoes...and Immortality."

Standing in place, Ian was a little hard to understand: "Is it the same thing, or is it a coincidence?"

"Could it be that the family found an 'echo' in such a large relic as Sequoia Base?"

There is such a possibility. As a relic, Sequoia Base has almost everything, not to mention other things. At the same time, it gathers space engineering, alien ecology, energy core and key facilities of the Department of Bioengineering... Even if it is a pre-epoch civilization, it may be difficult to find several A base that is bigger and more comprehensive than Sequoia Base.

Moreover, just as Inaiga II scolded angrily.

Also related to Echo, the ancient Sequoia Great Elder, was hated and feared by his people as the 'devil who wants to live forever'.

With such doubts, Ian returned to the crowd.

He didn't intend to tell Master Gesai and Ethan about this matter, not because he was offended, but because he didn't know how to say itif these two guys mistakenly think that he wants them to help restore the Ciehalorvo family What about the honor?

Recovery is definitely needed. Exiled people are not discriminated against in Nanling, just because Nanling is a place of exile, and 80% of the residents' ancestors are exiles. Whoever discriminates here may not know.

However, the status of 'exile' is inconvenient in other places.

Among other things, the inability to legally organize a chamber of commerce, purchase land, and set up a Warcraft breeding business is a great inconvenience.

The Ellen family and Master Goser are absolutely capable of speaking in front of the emperor and helping the Ciehalorvo family restore their reputation.

But not now.

Now, Ian must figure out the real body of the 'echo' in order to predict the fate of the Ciehalorvo family.

Otherwise, Inaiga II could exile the family, as could the landkeeper Axeleven if he didn't know what the taboo was, how could he possibly predict the future?

With such worries, Ian planned to go to Isengarde and ask about the team's situation.

But in the middle of the past, he was found by Qing Chao.
