Chapter 223 is about sacrifice and the truth!
Shen Qingyan led her forward, and she drifted towards the vicinity of the glowing gem.
Gu Xixi felt the energy of the surrounding magnetic field growing stronger.
She also saw clearly that the smooth surface of the huge gemstone already had fine cracks, and a lot of energy was quickly escaping from it.
Near the gemstone lay a bag covered in moss, and a crab.
She reached out and picked it up, threw away the crab, opened the bag, and inside was a small, identical gemstone and an instruction manual!
Gu Xixi: ? ? ?
Since there are smaller sizes of this gem, the giants and the ancestors of Lilliput could share it... Given their friendship, it's impossible that they would kill each other on the spot.
With the help of Shen Qingyan's other hand, the two worked together to open the instruction manual.
It turns out this is the instruction manual for this giant gemstone, which details how to install and use it, as well as how to repair any cracks.
The small gem also has its own function: it can temporarily take over the role of the large energy stone when it is moved for repairs.
At the end of the instruction manual, there was a palm-sized CD. Gu Xixi hesitated for a moment when she saw the CD.
Although the land of giants and the land of dwarfs have barely entered the modern era, they have no technological products. They wear clothes similar to modern ones, but lack modern technologies and concepts...
So this CD couldn't possibly be from this era, but where did it come from?
It can't be that civilization in this era is regressing, can it?
We'll have to go back to watch the DVD. Gu Xixi glanced at "Shen Qingyan" and said, "Let's go back to the submarine first."
The two held hands, with "Shen Qingyan" floating in front, leading Gu Xixi back into the submarine. After sitting down, Gu Xixi gave the order, "Return to land."
"Professor Zheng, I found the instruction manual and CD for that gem. Could you please see if the CD can be played? It says it's a record of the last installation, provided for future reference."
Gu Xixi handed it over, and the professors passed it around for a look. They also had many doubts in their hearts, but they all planned to wait until they reached the shore and went back to discuss it.
"Based on our observation, this disc should be able to play normally. If it really does record the previous installation process, we might be able to find the information that answers our questions after watching it."
"That's right, I can't wait to get back to the supermarket."
……
An hour and a half later, Gu Xixi and the others returned to the Fa Da Cai Supermarket.
The group headed straight to the third floor of the supermarket, found a DVD player, inserted a disc, and Gu Xixi took out her phone to start recording, making a backup just in case.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, the disc spun normally inside the machine, and a screen filled with dense white dots appeared on the television.
Then, several large characters appeared on it: [Detailed Instructions for Installing Energy Stones].
Below is a smaller line of text: "[This installation guide is based on the entire process recorded by the installer during the second installation; it is not an official version.]"
Soon, after the white spots flickered, the image appeared.
In the dense forest, inside a huge stone pavilion, a giant sat at a table, and a small figure sat on the giant's shoulder, near the giant's ear.
On the table in front of them was the energy stone that Gu Xixi had seen at the bottom of the river.
The two men looked serious and solemn, then glanced at the screen and smiled.
The giant explained, "Hello, people of the land of giants and the land of little people. Today, we will explain how to install the energy stone. Before we begin, I would like to tell you about the origin and function of this energy stone."
"Two hundred years ago, this was a barren planet. Our ancestors fled here and used their last bit of energy and the planet's resources to forge this energy stone and the protective array, which can protect our planet from various natural disasters and allow us to live in peace."
The giant spoke in a somber tone, while the little man sat on his shoulder and patted it repeatedly to comfort him; the two were clearly good friends.
“This energy stone needs to be repaired every hundred years, otherwise it will shatter and our home will become a living hell. Only my family knows about this. As the guardian of the planet, I must take on my responsibility.”
"Although... I am the only one left in my family, in order to prevent everyone from not knowing how to operate it after I die, I chose to record the repair process this time. After the energy stone is installed, my good friend will tell everyone the truth of the world and pass on this video."
When the giant spoke of his good friend, he pointed to the little man on his shoulder.
The little figure also waved at the camera, but her eyes were filled with sadness.
Next, the giant demonstrated the entire process of repairing and installing the energy stone. For a full hour, Gu Xixi and the others watched intently, not daring to leave for fear of missing important information.
Soon, the energy stone was repaired, and the giant carried it out. Suddenly, the little figure on his shoulder stabbed something into the giant's neck.
The next second, the giant's body gradually fell. He seemed afraid that he would fall too quickly and hurt the little man, so he tried to control himself and fall slowly.
As he fell, the little figure jumped onto the energy stone and looked at the camera again.
"The energy stone array is hidden right beneath the middle of the great river that extends from the border between the two countries. It's a place that we little people can't easily reach. But last time, it was Du Le's grandparents who sacrificed themselves... This time, I think it's our turn to sacrifice ourselves. So I put Du Le to sleep. We will use our inventions and strength to safely send the energy stones into the array."
"Duole, don't be sad when you wake up. We are best friends. Please respect my choice."
Because they were best friends, she couldn't bear to watch her entire family die for the sake of both nations, leaving no one alive.
She had to do this, both for public and private reasons.
The little man waved to the outside, and several tall little men immediately came in. Together, they carried the gemstone onto a makeshift cart and ran outside.
Just then, several shorter giants noticed the scene and rushed over to surround the little people.
"Duoduo, you actually killed your best friend for this gem!"
"You want to steal the jewels! They killed Dorle, and we must avenge him!"
"Kill them!"
……
Before Duoduo and the other little people could finish explaining themselves, they were killed outside the stone pavilion in the foolish rage of the other giants.
At the same time, Dorle woke up and saw the dead little people. He instantly burst into tears, tears welling up in his eyes, while the other giants were stunned...
