To Four Thousand Years Later

Vienna, the pure white city, unfolds from the inside to the outside, and is divided into three rings. The outermost ring is ports, theaters, museums, zoos and commercial markets. While Central is a dense residential area and a large number of schools, parks, amusement parks and clubs. There are also monasteries, churches and bell towers in these places, but not many.

As for the part of the inner ring, this old city known as the "Heart of Vienna" was built as early as the time of Little Solomon.

It is different from the grand and square style outside. The streets here are narrow and narrow, and the pavement is not paved with the carefully selected white marble outside, but the most common cobblestones. These pebbles were also carefully selected back then. After so many years, stepping on the bad and repairing the good, now it is considered smooth and round.

In the inner ring, you can see many towers and churches. Leonardo looked up, and all the truth was directly reflected in his eyes. Every church is a museum. Every church is a book. Museum... Every church is also a tomb.

The coffins of the saints who had held the ceremony of "uncovering the coffins" were also taken away by Leo III. He took away twenty-seven holy coffins... Taking this as the holy number, a church city was built with the holy coffin as the "holiest place for storing the ark of the covenant". A library of knowledge is used as a "sanctuary". Take Zai Museum as the "treasure room". With this model, he constructed twenty-seven different forms of Solomon's Temple, imitating his work in Alexandria, although he himself did not know the principle.

But now Leonardo knows.

Under Leonardo's persistent questioning, he learned some basic knowledge about this gas from Baimon.

He tentatively called this gas "ether". He used the sacred coffin as the basis of the ceremony, and made a ritual field that could catalyze the awakening of spiritual energy. The corpses of the saints in the past were the "holy encounters" that the Order of the Rose had searched for before. That is to say, it is the part left after the body of a psionic awakener rots or is cremated. In other places, there are also names like "dragon bones", "immortal skeletons" and Buddha relics. This is ether crystallization.

It is the ether gas deposited in the human spirit body. frame... In principle, it resembles some kind of concretion.

They would have slowly dissipated and gradually sublimated. They instinctively tend to stay away from the spirit body9 that is to say, if someone chases the ether gas, they will consciously drift away; if the ether exists as a spirit body, it will temporarily have a substance under the pressure of strong psionic energy. At least in Baimon's cognition, it doesn't have a unit of consciousness that can be minimally cut. In other words, it can at least be divided into countless parts, and each part has an independent consciousness; but at the moment they touch each other, they will turn into the same consciousness without any conflict. Swallowed, these gases immediately lose their infinite divisibility. It's like being preyed on. Unlike the advanced technology in the God Realm, in the primitive state of natural predation, the spiritual body of the former awakened person cannot digest ether. To them, ether is more like a power bank that recharges itself. until they die. These denatured ethers, like milk dripped with lemon juice, will slowly escape over time and turn back into ether gas. Leonardo speculated. The reason why this gas can increase the psychic energy of the psyker. Or let the people of the past awaken psionic energy... It should be based on the same characteristics of this mobile power supply.

The hardest part of becoming a psyker is at the very beginning.

First of all, they must be able to consciously communicate with the mountain for the first time, so that the power from the mountain will flow down and create spirit bodies for the awakened. It is equivalent to creating and these gases themselves can be counted as alive. It is like the wreckage of a gigantic gaseous being that pervades the universe after its consciousness has been killed. After the ether gathers, the possibility of mortal consciousness penetrating the veil and reaching the mountain increases.

If people’s consciousness itself is improved, it’s like getting a part of the bonus “extra traffic”—and the worst thing about handling the “awakened person” business is that you need to be connected to the Internet first, so you fall into a vicious circle, that is, I don't have a package if I don't handle business. I can't do business without a package. And the "ether" borrowed at the beginning is equivalent to a wif with an extremely slow network speed. Its own strength is not enough to awaken psionic energy. But it at least supports you to handle business or... can be based on this principle. Build a large awakening facility. Leonardo's first thought was this idea.

Build a planet-level gigantic spectacle, permanently piercing the curtain between the material world and the end. Let everyone who passes through or enters the awakening do not awaken psionic energy.

Since they don't need ether after awakening psionic power, why not gather these if... I mean ether, let them directly return it after awakening psionic power, after all, it is a non-renewable resource. And judging by the looks of those five ancient gods, this is probably an extremely rare resource... If left unchecked, after hundreds of thousands of years, the ether content in the human body on earth will inevitably be higher from generation to generation. Leonardo didn't want the Dubo interstellar pirates sent out to explore the way to extract oil after entering the interstellar era... If this gas is rare and precious enough, he believes that these people can make it. But the method of directly digging a hole with ether. It still seems too rough. He instinctively felt that this would be a disaster.

But don't rush. Among other things, as long as there is a technology that can harmlessly extract inactivated ether from living bodies, it is enough for Leonardo to awaken people all over the world. And Leo III's technology is through the ritual base and special building materials. Confine this etheric gas. Make it impossible for them to escape easily outside the church. In this way, people who stay in the church for a long time can more or less inhale a very small amount of ether.

Maybe it's possible that they just missed the door.

"Psionic technology

Leonardo sighed in a low voice, "Let's develop it quickly. Therefore, he can't do anything. He can only start to study slowly from the most basic place with other psionic scholars. And because there is no established model in this subject. Even Leonardo's all-powerful man could not initiate academic theories—he himself was a master and leading researcher of this kind of knowledge before he began to study it. All he could do was to free people as much as possible from the paranoia of spirituality. Superstitions and fears of psychic powers... Face up to psychic powers as much as possible, and have the freedom, courage and basic virtues to explore and study psychic powers. But when Leonardo first entered the city, he always felt When he arrived at these churches and when he came last year, Leonardo easily noticed some details. Among the twenty-seven churches...the holy coffins of seven churches disappeared.

It didn't just disappear out of thin air—it was replaced by an empty coffin that looked exactly like before. A95

It doesn't make any difference whether it's the art, the prayers on it, or the jewelry gold inlaid. Unless it is the guardian who guards the holy coffin all the year round. Others don't see a difference at all.

In fact, it is indeed no different from before. The only difference is that the corpses of those saints are missing from the new coffin. In other words... Shengyuwu, "Ether Crystallization".
