Become The Guard AI Of The Lost Civilization After Transmigration Chapter 74

  Chapter 74 The Walled Garden

   "Walled Garden", this is another sacred planet of the lost empire "Watcher".

  Just like the "Emerald Mausoleum", visiting here will not attract punishment from the "Watcher".

  In fact, due to its excellent ecological environment, in addition to tourists and pilgrims coming here, some biologists also have a soft spot for this place, and a large number of image records about the holy place are also spread in the Milky Way.

  Of course, Li Wenyuan has also seen the recorded images of these holy places, but he couldn't find anything from them.

   From all aspects, the "sacred planets" are extremely ordinary, and there is nothing worthy of attention except for the sacred meaning given to them by the "Watcher".

   "...Then what will humans leave on it? What does the 'Watcher' who regards this place as a holy place have anything to do with humans?"

  Thinking, the scientific research spacecraft approached the Holy Land.

  Different from the dead silence of the "Emerald Mausoleum", the "Walled Garden" does have an extremely good ecological environment.

  In addition to various types of vegetation, a large number of strange-looking animals have also formed a stable food chain here.

  Li Wenyuan even saw some creatures that were collected as pets at high prices in the private market. Perhaps not only tourists came here, but also poachers who worked their lives for money.

   It may be that poachers only dare to conduct small-scale poaching due to the deterrence of the "Watchmen".

   Even when it detects that the food chain may collapse, it will actively stop other poachers and carry out ecological maintenance for a certain period of time.

   Maybe they care more about this place than the biologists and "Watchmen".

  As Li Wenyuan expected, a rough scan did not yield any results, and the various detectors he turned on, including psychic equipment, did not find any abnormalities.

   In addition to continuing to let a large number of drones conduct fine scans, he can only wait for the results of a new round.

  Grey Wind also came here, but compared to Li Wenyuan's idea of ​​finding human remains, she is obviously more interested in the creatures on the Holy Land.

   "Did you see that? That animal can breathe fire!" She excitedly pointed at a tall deer-shaped creature that was breathing out flames, with unstoppable curiosity in her eyes.

  Li Wenyuan also noticed this scene, and immediately discovered something rather peculiar about the "Walled Garden".

   That is, the creatures here seem to have some level of psionic potential.

   It's like a canine that is not suitable for flying no matter how you look at its body structure, their staple food is actually birds.

  And instead of using methods such as sneak attacks to prey on birds that fall on the ground, they fly directly to the sky and chase the birds.

  This situation is too different from the general belief in idealistic civilization that "consciousness determines spiritual power". They believe that creatures without intelligence should not be able to use spiritual power.

   "But the readings of the psychic detector are not abnormal, only a thin layer of psychic energy surrounding the planet was detected. If it is a holy place, it is normal to have such a situation."

   "Is it because the animals here have been immersed in psionic energy for a long time, so they formed a similar instinctive method of using psionic energy?"

  Li Wenyuan felt that something was wrong. If spiritual power could be mastered so easily, idealistic civilizations would not have to spend so much time to enter the void.

   Intuition told him that this situation is related to the remains left by humans here.

  In addition to the scientific research spacecraft and nano-robot aggregate, the alien visitor who came to this planet today also has a "Watcher" big shot.

   To be precise, he is not a member of the "Watchmen" now, and he is no longer ready to return to that place full of false beliefs.

   "Holy Land... How long has it been since I've been here?" He murmured, walking along the forest path.

  He is Zaklan, the "prophet" who is still extolled by idealistic civilizations even after he leaves.

   As a saint of "The Watcher", his appearance is not so outstanding, and it seems that he does not match the image of "Prophet" Guang Weizheng.

  The High Priest had suggested countless times that he use genetic means to improve his body shape, but he rejected it.

  He thinks that he does not have any physical defects, he is proud of his birth and his body, and does not need the interference of external objects to destroy this purity.

   But it was just a small thing in his life.

  From the time he could remember, he was just an ordinary person, neither a chosen one who was born with knowledge, nor a psychic with powerful spiritual power.

  He, like many ascetics in "Watchmen", exercises his spiritual strength through meditation every day, and ensures his physical health through labor.

  Originally, his life would be very ordinary, but due to some accident or some purpose, the mediocre Zachlan was chosen as the "prophet".

  At first he thought it was God's favor that had come to him, but soon he understood the truth hidden behind it.

  He only exists as a "spiritual idol" that condenses beliefs.

  His name was spread, and his deeds were sung by believers.

  Zaklan, who has been practicing penance in the temple since birth, even learned through network equipment that he had "sacred deeds" of "traveling the stars of the universe, influencing bloodthirsty giant beasts, and enlightening ignorant sentient beings".

   There are other idealistic and civilized kings who issue decrees in his name to exploit the people; there are also empires that have nothing to do with him swear to fight for him, and then expand wildly to grab resources.

  He tries to explain, but everything he says can be purposely twisted into useful "oracles".

   Fanatical believers respect him, and the huge spiritual power he condenses has also become an important part of the "Watcher"'s exploration of the virtual world.

   And he, Zach Lan, a nobody, is reluctantly carried forward by the tide of history.

  "...Purpose and deceit, greed and desire, these are the most common things in the galaxy. After all, there are only a few great undertakings. 'Apocalypse', if you see this scene, will you regret what you did?"

  Zachlan sighed, and pushed aside the bushes in front of him.

  The purple light flashed by, and the horizon suddenly opened up, and a huge circular courtyard appeared in the dense forest.

  The flower clusters here grow neatly, even if no one comes to maintain it, the plants seem to maintain the growth order spontaneously.

  Many animals rest here, and you can see animals that should be in the relationship between predators and prey, and walk together harmoniously.

  There seems to be a mysterious power here that appeases all creatures, and the source of that power is the giant obelisk in the center of the courtyard.

  The quaint atmosphere lingers on it, but you can't see any broken places, as if time can't leave traces on it.

   Around the obelisk, there are countless statues.

  These statues are of all the "Holy Ones" in history that The Watcher can trace.

  Even if most of them have been vague, I only know that there is such a person who once appeared in history and was called a "saint".

   But they are still placed here as faceless sculptures.

   Among them, the sculpture closest to the obelisk is the most special.

   Its statue is the most vague, and even its figure is only approximate. It seems that even the sculptor doesn't know what this person should look like, and can only show its differences from other "saints" as much as possible.

   It can be seen that it should be a creature of another species, and it is hard to imagine that "Watcher" will be a statue of other creatures.

   Li Wenyuan, who was still scanning the planet, detected an extremely weak abnormal fluctuation with a psionic detector the moment Zaklan entered the "Oelisk Courtyard".

  He did not let go of this anomaly, a large number of drones pursued the past, and soon came to a hollow in the center of the forest.

   It seemed normal here, but Li Wenyuan saw a wandering animal that disappeared into the hollow.

   Obviously, there is a special space here, and you must have spiritual power to enter.

  Li Wenyuan guessed that this place is probably another crack in a void, just like the pyramid in the "Emerald Mausoleum".
