The Gaelic people of the Ultraman Tiga world

At that time, the Earth was at the intersection of the Proterozoic and Mesoproterozoic Extended and Narrow-banded periods, with only primitive organisms such as cyanobacteria existing. It was impossible for intelligent life to have emerged.

Most importantly, the exploration team discovered that the material used to construct the "Royal Valley" was not any known material in the solar system.

For experimental research purposes, the exploration team collected a portion of the "Royal Valley" and brought it back to Earth for more detailed analysis and research.

Then, scientists discovered that this special substance could resonate with "supernatural beings".

Or, to be more precise, the mineral metals extracted from this special substance can guide intelligent life to undergo a certain type of directional mutation and evolution.

Yes, this special metal is only effective against intelligent life.

It is especially effective for "supernatural individuals" who have already awakened superpowers.

Shock, fear, disbelief...

As the research progressed, scientists at TPC noticed that this special mineral metal contained a unique magnetic field.

It is this special magnetic field that guides changes in the brains and genetic factors of intelligent life.

What alarmed scientists even more was that they discovered this unusual mineral metal was most likely the remains of some powerful creature.

Just like how living things turn into fossils after they die.

These special mineral metals also originate from some powerful, indescribable entity.

This powerful, unknown entity left its power within the ancient ruins, continuing to influence those who came into contact with it.

This ongoing effect is somewhat similar to the "convergent evolution" mentioned above.

Anyone who comes into contact with this mineral metal will gradually awaken their psychic powers under its influence, becoming a genuine superhuman.

Those supernatural individuals who had already awakened will more easily evolve powerful psychic abilities.

After repeated testing and observation, TPC scientists have basically determined that the superpowered individuals who awakened under the influence of the mineral metal were all telekinetic users, and it seems that none of them have experienced any aftereffects.

The only limitation is that this special mineral metal seems to be effective only on carbon-based life forms with advanced brains.

Non-carbon-based organisms and plants and animals that are not highly evolved have a very low chance of awakening into true Nen users.

At least in a series of experiments conducted by TPC, only one ape with the intelligence of a four- or five-year-old awakened and became the only non-human Nen user.

Given this premise, a huge controversy naturally arose within TPC regarding how to develop "Royal Valley".

Radicals believe this is a groundbreaking discovery that will lead to the comprehensive evolution of humanity.

The "Royal Valley" must be fully developed so that humanity can eventually enter a new era where everyone can become a Nen user.

Conservatives, on the other hand, believe that the current effective data and samples are far too scarce.

With only such a small sample of data, it is impossible to fully understand the impact of mineral metals.

Rashly developing the "Royal Valley" would only repeat the mistakes of ancient civilizations.

Moreover, TPC still hasn't figured out the origin of this ancient site.

What exactly happened 1.2 billion years ago?

Why is the "Royal Valley" located on the far side of the moon?

What kind of being was that unknown life form that left behind the mineral metals?

Even assuming the worst, is there absolutely no danger posed by this ancient ruin right now?

The ongoing disputes have led TPC to temporarily suspend the development of the "Royal Valley," and even the utilization of mineral metals has only been superficial.

However, to their utter surprise, a sudden “alien invasion” event would ultimately ignite the problem of the “Royal Valley”.

The current situation is that the spacecraft from outer space had already crashed into the area of ​​"Royal Valley".

Regardless of their motives, the Carlo base must send people to conduct a comprehensive exploration and search of the "Royal Valley".

In this situation, in order to avoid the subsequent blame-shifting, John must first find a powerful force capable of protecting himself.

Therefore, they were willing to sacrifice some of the interests of the "Wang Family Valley".

Chapter 512 The Ancient One from One Hundred Million Years Ago

That night, Lu Xuan gazed at the rising sun and fell into deep thought.

Even inside the Carlo base, the sunlight, far more dazzling than on Earth, still stung Lu Xuan's eyes.

"Tomoko, is everything John said true?"

Lu Xuan lowered his head slightly, no longer looking directly at the sun, and asked softly.

Instead of immediately deciding whether to cooperate with John, Lu Xuan waited for the intelligence gathered by Zhi Zi.

After all, artificially creating superpowered individuals is certainly a good research topic.

However, Lu Xuan's habit is usually to understand the whole story before making a decision based on his own feelings.

As for John's rhetoric, which is extremely tempting to any power?

Lu Xuan never took it to heart from the beginning.

Even if the entire "Valley of the Royal Family" were given to Lu Xuan as a package, it wouldn't be as attractive to him as the title of "an ancient civilization from 1.2 billion years ago".

Because in Lu Xuan's memory, there didn't seem to be such a scene in the Ultraman Tiga TV series he had watched.

It's not that I can't remember, it's that this part of the story doesn't exist at all.

Rather, the vast majority of the Ultraman Tiga TV series takes place on Earth, with very few storylines related to the moon.

The only one Lu Xuan remembered was Captain Gale, who appeared on the eve of the finale and successfully killed the Demon Bird Zoga in this fighter jet.

This is a truly formidable character, whose abilities and courage belong to the top elite among humans.

"Relevant information has been found, and a few archives that existed in paper form have also been preserved."

"The situation is basically the same as John described..."

"However, I discovered some stone murals that may be related to the 'Royal Valley' in the lithosphere 30,000 meters underground."

As Zhizi answered Lu Xuan's questions, she projected the stone murals she had scanned onto his retina.

The mural appears to depict a grand battle between the gods, while beneath it lies a scene of countless lives being destroyed.

It is clear that the mural's depictor was simply recording this history.

"This is?"

Lu Xuan couldn't help but squint his eyes. When he saw the patterns on the mural, he vaguely realized that this mural was not just a simple mural.

Those regular lines and patterns, while describing that battle of the gods, also seem to reveal some kind of information.

"It's information, an unprecedented way of transmitting information."

Before Lu Xuan could continue thinking, Zhizi gave an affirmative answer.

This ancient mural from the lithosphere is actually a piece of information that transcends ordinary understanding of life.

The ancient beings who left this mural clearly possessed a higher level of intelligence than ordinary cosmic civilizations.

For those intelligent races that have not yet developed civilization, this mural can depict a scene of gods battling.

For intelligent beings who have already entered the stage of civilization, the amount of information hidden in the murals is enough for them to decipher for quite some time.

In the eyes of truly advanced intelligent beings like Lu Xuan and Zhi Zi, this mural itself is a "flow of information" describing ancient history.

"Patterns, text, information..."

"Is there really a civilization that can achieve a way of expression that combines imagery, form, and meaning?"

In the earliest stages of the transmission of civilization, history was recorded through patterns and murals.

When patterns and murals gradually evolved into writing, civilization entered a stage of rapid development.

However, this is far from enough. The written language itself is still limited by its form of expression and cannot fully convey the intentions and thoughts of our predecessors to future generations.

Thus, electronic signals with their massive information content came into being, which is the highest manifestation of the information society.

Once this stage is reached, the transmission of civilization transcends the representation of patterns and texts, and can directly transmit massive amounts of information to future generations in a short period of time through electronic signals and brainwave instruments.

In the current hypothetical system of humankind, this method of civilizational transmission, in which one is born with the ability to inherit all the knowledge and wisdom of their predecessors, is already the limit of what they can imagine.

However, the stone tablet in front of us has already surpassed the highest level of civilization transmission in human understanding.

The amount of information contained in this stone tablet varies depending on the level of intelligence of the beings with different cognitive levels.

From patterns that most living beings can understand, to scripts that only civilized races can decipher, to the transmission of massive amounts of information that advanced cosmic civilizations can receive...

"Is it possible to decipher the contents of this information?"

He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

In his current state, Lu Xuan is clearly unable to directly comprehend this massive amount of information.

It might work if he were in his Gaelic form, but Lu Xuan is currently in his human form.

The sheer amount of information contained in this stone tablet is proof that its evolutionary stage far surpasses that of humans at the same level.

Of course, Lu Xuan can now also transform into the "Giant of Light" and directly sense and understand the information flow left on the stone tablet at the quantum level.

But that's obviously pointless, since he now has Zhizi as the best translator.

"No problem, it's just an ancient legend."

......................................................................................................

One hundred million years ago, the ancient Earth was struck by a massive catastrophe.

That was Isilis, the king of the Nuaza aliens from a distant galaxy.

This alien king calls himself the "God of Life and Death," adhering to the primitive concept of the survival of the fittest and being the embodiment of death and destruction in the universe.

After His own planet was destroyed, He wandered the universe, searching for other planets that might harbor life.

The ancient ruins discovered by the Earth Defense Force are the "spaceship" that Isilis used to escape his home planet when it was destroyed.

It must be noted here that not all cosmic civilizations dedicate their technology to exploring external forces.

The Nuaza aliens are a cosmic-level civilization that seeks power within themselves, and their development of telekinesis is among the best in the entire universe.

Through the development and use of telekinesis, every person on Planet Nuaza possesses the ability to break through the planet's boundaries on their own.

Isilis, with the help of his temple, traversed most of the Milky Way galaxy over 1.2 billion years, finally arriving in Earth's solar system 100 million years ago.

Although there were no humans or ancient civilizations on Earth at that time, they had already given birth to their own intelligent races.

It started with native reptiles as its evolutionary starting point and reached its zenith with the highly prosperous dinosaur civilization.

One hundred million years ago on Earth, dinosaurs, which evolved from reptiles, developed a highly intelligent civilization and fiercely resisted the invasion of Isilis.

Thus began a protracted war.

Chapter 513 Monument of Civilization

"A dinosaur civilization from 100 million years ago?"

Somewhat astonished, Lu Xuan stared wide-eyed, making no attempt to hide his surprise.

Lu Xuan had long known that, given the vast history of Earth, it was impossible for human civilization to have developed in isolation.

It's one thing to be an ancient civilization from 30 million years ago.

After all, it was a nomadic civilization built by a group of travelers from the stars, not a native civilization on Earth.

However, the dinosaur civilization of 100 million years ago was undoubtedly a native civilization on Earth.

As a native civilization of Earth, the dinosaur civilization demonstrated the courage and tenacity befitting a native civilization in the face of the invasion of Isilis.

Despite being a surface civilization that had not yet ventured beyond its home planet, the Dinosaur Civilization continued to grow and learn during its war with Isilis.

Powerful weapons, strict military discipline, a constant stream of geniuses, and that crucial telekinetic power...

As the war continued, the Nuaza aliens were horrified to discover that this civilization possessed terrifying war potential.

Those foreign weapons and systems are one thing.

Every normal civilization has the instinct to learn more advanced systems and technologies.
