Chapter 648 They're Behaving Strangely
"Mr. Wu, we found a tape in the ruins of that civilization. It looks like we can restore the sound."
Wu Mo listened to the researcher's report as they walked across the research center's corridor. He was delighted.
"If we manage to restore the tape, we'll be able to listen to many stories from Eternal Sun's past."
His heart was filled with anticipation.
After all, this civilization had disappeared for nearly a thousand years!
They reached the current level of human technology a thousand years ago.
They were even more advanced than humans. What did they go through back then?
Why did they leave this tape behind? What kind of secret did they want to convey to future generations?
In the end, the tape was finally restored thanks to the researchers who worked tirelessly. They successfully presented it to everyone.
Wu Mo had asked the researchers to use a very old machine to perfectly restore the sound from the tape.
Although the sound was still not perfect, the fact that they could recover it to this extent was impressive enough.
A deep voice slowly rang out.
"Greetings, beings from the distant future. We are creatures of Eternal Sun, but by the time you hear this voice, we might no longer exist."
Those who heard the message were somehow affected by the sadness in the creature's voice.
Everyone in the research institute fell silent.
"Who translated the language?" Wu Mo blurted out.
His focus was different from that of the others. How did they accurately translate this ancient language?
A researcher beside him quickly replied, "Mr. Wu, it's like this. We deciphered their language through the large number of items we collected from Eternal Sun. Now, we can completely understand their language."
"I see. Alright. Resume the tape."
Wu Mo nodded in satisfaction.
"I'm going to record some secrets on this tape and tell you what we've encountered. At the same time, I'll guide you to the true blessed land on Eternal Sun."
As soon as the voice said that, everyone on the base was excited and delighted.
"Hahaha, I'm going to be rich. I'm going to be absolutely rich this time!"
The voice suddenly became low.
"You can't imagine how much we've suffered. Just as our civilization was about to rise, we received a fatal blow from a planet called Dark Star! It's light-years away…"
"What?! It really was Dark Star that had destroyed Eternal Sun's civilization. So that's what happened!"
Some of the researchers were extremely excited.
"Dark Star" was the name Wu Mo had given to that planet, so it was not its original name.
However, the researchers had already deciphered their language.
Therefore, the system automatically translated the planet's name into the name that humans identified with.
"No wonder they were able to track down Eternal Sun and attack our base. They've done this before!"
Wu Mo immediately saw the whole picture. He understood that the Dark Starlings were skilled in all kinds of schemes.
They had already destroyed an entire civilization on Eternal Sun.
After that, they came into contact with humans. They probably wanted to see if humans could develop to Eternal Sun's level.
If humans showed a similar development trend, the Dark Starlings would immediately deploy their terrifying spaceship.
They would destroy the entire human community in the same way they destroyed Eternal Sun.
However, they probably thought that humans had yet to develop to that extent.
Therefore, they temporarily let the humans go and took things one step at a time.
The words spoken by the ancient voice made everyone tremble.
It was like a bloody painting. It told the tragedy of a civilization's destruction.
After that, the voice sounded calmer.
"Now, I'll tell you about some extremely important locations on Eternal Sun…"
There was a rare ore mine about 8,915 kilometers southeast of the active volcano.
Meanwhile, there was a huge oil field about 482 kilometers west of the base.
The voice provided a lot of valuable information, and the researchers immediately recorded everything.
Wu Mo opened the interstellar map and checked it carefully. He found that it was all true!
This person was not spouting nonsense. The locations of the treasured lands had not changed even after many years of evolution.
The active volcano was the largest of its kind on the planet.
It was located at the planet's base point. If they moved around with the volcano as the center, they would be able to find the hiding places of priceless treasures!
"Take a look! Director Wu didn't lie to us. Unfortunately, this oil field has already been occupied."
One of the researchers shook his head with regret.
However, it did not matter. Apart from the oil fields, there were still many treasures waiting to be discovered on Eternal Sun.
Everyone identified the places while they recorded the information.
"Quick! Send people from the base to occupy these places!" the researcher immediately ordered.
Then, someone contacted China's base on Eternal Sun.
When those on Eternal Sun received the news, the management immediately called for a small emergency meeting!
Then, countless people rushed out of the base and headed to the unclaimed land.
"This isn't right. China's actions are so strange."
"Yes, the Chinese never leave their base so easily. There's a core protection circle inside. But now, they're advancing together!"
"Look! They're rushing to those uninhabited places. Aren't they afraid of danger?"
At this moment, China sent out a large number of people. Hundreds of people surged forward from all directions to achieve the same goal.
For a moment, all the bases around the world were paying close attention. They wanted to know what China's base was planning.
Even though China's base had made a big move, they had not left the range of the protective shield and acted rashly.
No one could be sure if there was an unknown threat hidden in the dark.
Right then, the researchers on China's base were excited.
Wu Mo was no exception. He was filled with anticipation.
After all, the land of treasures was right before them.
As long as China made a move, everything would be within their reach. How could they not be excited?
However, they still had to verify the information first.
They could not completely trust that the words in the tape were irrefutable evidence.
Finally, news came from Eternal Sun.
After some Chinese workers walked some distance east from the base of the volcano, they found a rare ore!
"Heavens, what is this? It's all gold and natural diamonds! We're going to be rich! We're really going to be rich!"
All the workers were extremely excited. These were extremely precious metals in the human world!
The value of gold never depreciated. In fact, it had been increasing steadily. Gold was the best investment for wealth.
The amount of gold was enough for China to dominate the gold trading market on a global scale!
Then, another group of staff members reported a major discovery.
They had been heading north until they found a huge oil field in a distant place.
After a preliminary examination, they came to a shocking conclusion: This oil field was even bigger than the one discovered earlier!
