Huayu 05, our science fiction movie universe

Beneath the magma dwells a hundred gods.

As the crowd walked through the garden from five thousand years ago, what came into view was a low stone hill, with a stone fortress nestled between the hill and the water.

In front of the fortress gate stood a giant metal statue resembling the Enlightened Beast, with a tiger's body and a human face, and nine metal tails on its back, which startled Huang Ji and the others, who thought it was another alien guardian.

However, they soon discovered that the nine tails of this metal behemoth seemed to be a kind of transforming metal that could change shape in countless ways. Sometimes it would turn into a chainsaw and cut out square blocks of stone bricks from a large rock with a few quick strokes, polishing them smooth and flat.

Even as the crowd arrived, it did not stop working. It manipulated the stones to fly up and walked to one of the walls of the fortress. One of its tails turned into a chisel and pointed it in mid-air. With a "poof," a obviously damaged stone brick instantly turned into dust.

The powder was all sucked into the other tail of the giant statue, freeing up a brick's worth of space.

The colossus's tail transformed into a nozzle, slicking around inside before inserting the previously shaved stone brick. It fit perfectly, and the entire wall looked exactly the same, as if that brick had been one of the original bricks when it was built.

After doing all this, the colossus ignored the crowd, stepped down from the platform, and began tending to the large trees by the roadside and the several strangely shaped fungi growing under them.

"And what is this giant statue?" Xia Feng asked.

Hu Bayi answered quickly this time, "It should be Shen Luwu."

Huang Ji nodded with a smile.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Western Mountains Classic, states: "Four hundred li to the southwest is the Hill of Kunlun, which is indeed the capital of the Emperor, and is overseen by the god Lu Wu."

Its divine form is that of a tiger with nine tails, a human face, and tiger claws; it is a god who oversees the nine departments of the heavens and the emperor's garden.

It seems this Divine Luwu is in charge of the garden; you can think of it as an intelligent butler, also acting as an intelligent gardener and intelligent engineering robot.

As Huang Ji spoke, he held up the jade necklace and instructed Lu Wu:
"Lu Wu, go and bring out all the divine artifacts here."

At Huang Ji's command, Lu Wu immediately flew away from his original position.

However, a metal tentacle extends from its tail to continue its daily routine of caring for the flowers and plants.

The gods Luwu were the ones who built and maintained the ancient city of Kunlun.

There must have been many back then, but they all flew away with Kunlun Mountain long ago. Now, only one remains underground in this volcano to maintain the environment here.

Before long, everyone saw that Shen Luwu, with dozens of tails trailing behind him, had taken all the "divine artifacts" from the garden.

Despite being called a "divine artifact," once people actually came into contact with it, they discovered that it was just an ordinary item.

Like the jade pendant necklace from before, the remote controls for many of these "magical gadgets" are nothing more than rings, pendants, or other ornaments.

These are mostly toys and everyday items that can fly, emit light, and connect to the internet.

Of course, they can't connect to the internet on Earth.

Currently, among the hundred gods, only a few are considered legitimate tools that Huang Ji and his group deem useful.

For example, a fully automated agricultural robot, with a human face and an animal body, can breed and select seeds, as well as cultivate, sow, fertilize, kill pests, harvest, sieve grains... It is a one-stop fully automated service.

In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, it is called Li, and this garden is the one it takes care of.

There's also an electronic calendar, which is more like a CD. It displays the date and time and automatically connects to the internet to calibrate the time. If the internet connection is lost, it will use an ultra-precise atomic clock for calibration. Even today, this is extremely advanced.

This creature is called Shenqi Tong in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

There is another thing that can scan the surrounding environment and analyze various parameters of the environment.

Moreover, it can regulate the environment within a certain closed system, including but not limited to air composition, air pressure, humidity, and temperature, which is obviously suitable for use on spacecraft.

This creature is called Shenjiangyi in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

In addition, there is a humanoid spacesuit that looks like a bodysuit with a tail, and its surface can change into any color and pattern.

In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, this creature is called Shen Changcheng.

With the help of Shen Luwu, Huang Ji and Hu Bayi basically figured out the functions of these "artifacts" using the necklace. They were almost all everyday household appliances used by aliens.

Xia Feng said sadly:
"That's it? This is all? And you dare call yourself a hundred gods? It's clearly just household goods!"

Huang Ji, on the other hand, remained quite calm.

"It's a department store, otherwise what? Would those aliens leave military weapons for the seven fairies?"
The Classic of Mountains and Seas records this place as the abode of a hundred gods, not because it was a warehouse, but because even the daily necessities of extraterrestrials were considered divine by the ancients five thousand years ago.

Moreover, apart from the Enlightened Beast and the Divine Luwu, the other tools have little combat capability, but they are still rare treasures for us, especially for Earth scientists.

Huang Ji's words did not disappoint the people present.

Indeed, given the current crisis facing Earth, even a tiny bit of extraterrestrial advanced technology, if reverse-engineered, would be of great help to Earth's civilization.

Moreover, the key point is that the presence of these "hundred gods" fully proves that Huang Ji's speculation about the history of ancient civilizations on Earth is correct, verifies the accuracy of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and contains a hidden message.

If the "Hundred Gods" and the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" are real, and if aliens existed in ancient times, then are there other alien black technologies on Earth that have not yet been discovered?

"And who says our harvest isn't good?"

The divine Lu Wu and the divine plow alone are already a huge gain.

I just took a closer look, and the former's database contains more than just the construction of this stone fortress and garden.

As an alien engineering steward, this god Lu Wu was proficient in everything from mountain excavation and building houses and bridges to production and construction.

It has corresponding data records for things like the super signal towers of extraterrestrial civilizations, deep mining centers, superalloy material synthesis furnaces, and the construction of extraterrestrial biospheres.

As for the latter, the Dragon Clan's biological genetic technology was already exceptional, and this device contains knowledge and information related to this area.

While many of the underlying technologies and material elements are still lacking on Earth, this is enough to propel humanity to a new level in biomedicine and genetic engineering.

Just as everyone was rejoicing over their gains, an explosion overhead startled them. Bang!
boom!
Ripples spread across the lava lake above them, and everyone immediately became more alert. Huang Ji and Liu Peiqiang also realized that the remnants of the Illuminati and ETO had successfully entered the central hall.

"That's half?"

Huang Ji looked at Liu Peiqiang; when it comes to fighting, he's the professional here.

Liu Peiqiang reacted quickly, but before arranging personnel, he first looked at Shen Luwu in the team.

"Is this thing easy to manage? And it's quick to build things, right?"

Huang Ji nodded.

Liu Peiqiang looked around again, his gaze sweeping across the entire garden. Without hesitation, he immediately accepted the jade pendant that could control Shen Luwu.

Under his control, the alien infrastructure robot quickly came into action, with a large number of metal tentacles emerging from its back, the tips of which transformed into various tools and equipment.

Almost in the blink of an eye, with the movement of these tentacles, the entire garden was torn to pieces, and then several small rock fortresses and defensive works such as alleyways appeared on the ground.

"You all need to hide!"

Liu Peiqiang ordered a few of the less combat-capable members of the team to hide first, and then deployed the combat personnel to the fortresses. Meanwhile, Shen Luwu continued to build new defensive fortifications using the original materials from the garden, relying on these fortresses.

At this moment, the Weak Water defense line above them was fluctuating more and more violently. Of course, Liu Peiqiang could not let the Weak Water be destroyed, otherwise the lava would pour down and they would all be roasted alive.

Therefore, after the fortification was completed, Liu Peiqiang immediately used the jade pendant to control the Weak Water and reopened the passage in the center of the lava lake.

As soon as the passage opened, the attack from the outside immediately ceased, and no enemies entered. Clearly, the people outside were worried that there might be an ambush inside.

But this stalemate couldn't go on forever, so soon, several reconnaissance drones flew in, followed by a golden figure descending from the sky.

The figure was none other than the winged, bird-headed, humanoid figure who had fought against Liu Peiqiang and his group before.

As soon as they saw an enemy appear, the soldiers hiding in the fortress immediately opened fire, but the powerful bullets only caused a shower of sparks to fly when they hit the enemy.

The bird-headed mech raised its golden spear, tossed it, and pierced straight through a fortress, like a steel rod piercing tofu, penetrating the thick rock wall.

"what!"

A scream came from inside the fortress, but the other warriors remained unmoved and showed no fear, continuing their attack.

With a wave of its hand, the bird-headed mech pilot caused the javelins embedded in the fortress to automatically return, and at the same time, more armed soldiers came down from the opening above.

opportunity!

A glint flashed in Liu Peiqiang's eyes, and the Weak Water Cave above his head closed, dividing the area into two parts. At the same time, the power of their attack below almost doubled.

The key was that Liu Peiqiang made his move, accurately hitting the javelin with several bursts of fire. The electromagnetic weapon in his hand was quite powerful, causing the javelin to bounce continuously in the air, emitting a series of mournful cries.

Seeing this, the bird-headed mech landed on the ground, preparing to release the feather-like weapon on its back. But at that moment, Shen Dijiang suddenly appeared at its feet, emitting an extremely loud and piercing noise, and forcibly controlled it for a second.

At the same time, another soldier rushed out of the bunker, leaped into the air, and grabbed the golden javelin that was still trembling in the air with both hands.

At this moment, Liu Peiqiang, wearing mechanical exoskeleton armor, rushed forward and engaged the bird-headed mecha at closer range. For a time, the two sides were evenly matched.

However, those who came in behind him were not so lucky. They were almost instantly wiped out by Liu Peiqiang's soldiers, who used the bunker for cover.

Seeing that only one person remained on his side, the birdman mech became impatient and its attacks on Liu Peiqiang became increasingly fierce.

The mecha he wore was clearly not an Earth creation, and its combat power was ultimately stronger than the military mechanical exoskeleton worn by Liu Peiqiang. Even when surrounded, it still managed to force Liu Peiqiang to retreat steadily.

The battle scene was filmed very well, and with the help of dazzling special effects, it was almost on par with some scenes in Hollywood's "Iron Man 2".

In this battle, Liu Peiqiang skillfully used the "artifacts" they had acquired and their combat wisdom to gradually lure the bird-headed mech into a trap, and then lured in the members of the "Illuminati" and ETO organizations outside. He and his group broke out while fighting against it, and then used the lava lake mechanism to make the scorching lava pour down, completely burying the enemy.

The whole process sounds easy, but it was actually extremely dangerous. Fortunately, Huang Ji and Liu Peiqiang were able to escape alive in the end.

Even as lava poured down, the bird-headed mech was still alive. It struggled to escape from the lava lake, and although it was battered and bruised, it still had the strength to fight.

Fortunately, just then, Liu Peiqiang's reinforcements arrived successfully, and with the combined efforts of both sides, they finally eliminated this biggest threat.

Unfortunately, when they took stock later, they found that several of the "divine weapons" had been damaged during the battle. Shen Luwu even perished in the lava lake while trying to hold back the bird-headed mech, which was truly a great pity.

"After all, we did gain something. Besides, we also captured this powerful bird-shaped mech."

Liu Peiqiang grinned and said:
"Seriously, what exactly is this thing? It's amazing, it's even fine after being submerged in lava."

“This must be the god Shaohao from the Classic of Mountains and Seas,” Huang Ji said.

"This is Shen Shaohao?!"

Everyone was surprised, and Huang Ji nodded.

"Bird-headed and human-bodied, judging from the style, it is clearly Phoenix Clan technology. It seems that the remnants of the Dongyi tribe that were driven out of the Central Plains by Emperor Zhuanxu have not disappeared in the long river of history."

They must have inherited some of the technological creations of the Phoenix Clan and continued them to this day, changing their name to the so-called 'Illuminati'.

"Regarding this organization, Captain Qin, do you have any intelligence information?"

Qin Yanni nodded upon hearing this, but did not speak. Clearly, this information was quite important, and in order to prevent Zhizi from eavesdropping, they still had to communicate through the dream world.

Soon, Huang Ji and the others packed up all the spoils from their Kunlun trip and transported them down the mountain. As for the Kunlun Ruins, there were still some areas that could be excavated, which were handed over to the official departments for excavation later.

After descending the mountain and boarding the private jet, Huang Ji and the others entered a virtual dream world through the subconscious healing device helmet and contacted Shi Qiang and others at headquarters.

At this point, Huang Ji revealed his biggest discovery during the Kunlun operation.

"Although I haven't yet figured out how Emperor Zhuanxu severed the connection between heaven and earth, I'm basically certain where I can find the remaining clues." (End of Chapter)
