Chapter 678: Whispers that Resound Throughout the World



Chapter 678: Whispers that Resound Throughout the World

She was the one who disliked reading the least among the people present, but despite having the lowest scientific literacy, she was listening with great interest.

And after listening to it, Zoe subconsciously compared it with what she had seen in the textbook before. After thinking about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing wrong?

Whether it is the law of universal gravitation or various basic knowledge points, putting aside those weird stories, they all match up.

Zoe felt a vague sense of familiarity, and later she remembered that Nini's newspaper seemed to be in this style.

Everyone in the cabin was stunned when they heard this. They looked at each other, and although they all seemed to want to say something but hesitated, they finally nodded.

"It seems. Indeed."

"Don't mention it. From a knowledge point of view, there really isn't much of a problem."

"Then this is the true evil god. Knowledge is always contaminated. Isn't spreading knowledge just spreading contamination? Furthermore, this knowledge isn't correct."

"It's not that serious. The conclusions drawn from these stories are all correct. If the process is wrong, it won't cause cognitive interference."

"You'd better not let the technical priest in charge of the assessment hear this, otherwise you will definitely fail the next assessment!"

The cabin suddenly became chaotic again, and Castel and his group began to argue with each other.

Meanwhile, Beatrice, who was still lying in the combustion chamber of the steam engine, changed to a more comfortable position and fell into deep thought.

To be honest, she also suspected at first that it was some kind of blasphemous and distorted words, especially the voice that spoke it, which sounded terrible, low and weird.

When Zeus opened his mouth during the link, he scared away the believers. Beatrice actually wanted to run away, but there was no way she could run away. She could only lie down and listen while vomiting.

As she listened, she became fascinated.

At first, she was attracted by these outrageous stories and was somewhat curious, but gradually, she felt many other things.

She found it difficult to describe what that feeling was like, as if in her more than ten years of life, she had never come across similar words to describe it.

Listening to the whispers, she seemed to have entered into each story, following the whispers, thinking, summarizing and concluding.

Finally draw a conclusion.

She had heard of most of these conclusions, whether it was the principle of the steam engine or the theory of universal gravitation.

But the idea in between was something she had never encountered before.

Beatrice is a transcendent being, and the Candlelight Society has its own set of methods to contact the Sea of ​​Unconsciousness, and she seemed to feel something similar in this whisper.

This was a whole set of thoughts, precise and rigorous, as if a huge machine was controlling a giant hand of steel, but it only drew a small flower on the ground in front of her.

To be honest, Beatrice kind of liked this feeling.

Those absurd stories only made her feel a little funny, but she listened to them unconsciously. When she came to her senses, she had learned a lot more.

Well, it always felt like the knowledge had entered her mind in a mean way.

Beatrice was a little absent-minded as she watched the people of Castel arguing nearby.

Could it be an evil god as they say?

But even if he is an evil god, he is an interesting evil god.

Beatrice herself didn't notice that she seemed to be looking forward to those stories. As a supernatural being, she might have been a little slack.

[Anchor] gradually shifted without anyone noticing.

I don’t know how deep it is underground.

Xiaobu opened his eyes in confusion.

"What just happened?"

"You fell asleep while reading the holy book brought by Lord Frey!" someone beside him said. Xiaobu raised his head and found that there were many companions around him.

"That's normal. I feel sleepy when I see that thing!"

"You can't read at all? What can you understand?"

"So what if I can't read? Who is born knowing how to read? Just wait, I can learn to spell in three days at most!"

"Hey, it took you three days to learn how to spell. Isn't that embarrassing? But Xiaobu learned it in just one day!"

Xiaobu scratched her head in embarrassment and wanted to retort that she didn't learn it in one day.

Including the time spent searching for books, it took a full day and a half.

Ever since Frey brought back the Holy Book, these Untouchables have been worried. None of them can read, so how can they read the book?

In the end, it was Frey who came up with an idea. He asked Xiaobu to ask the Gear Sage, and it turned out to be useful.

The Gear Sage was illiterate, but he spent some effort to decipher all of this information. It was said that he had a whole set of complex methods that allowed him to deduce the probability of word appearance.

Xiaobu didn’t understand so much, she was just very happy: she finally knew how to read!

It took her a day to learn how to spell, and then she began to read the Bible with great enthusiasm.

Then I fell asleep.

The things written in the scriptures were too profound. She felt dizzy after reading them and her eyelids began to twitch unconsciously.

The stories I heard in my dreams are still the most interesting.

Wait, a dream story?

Xiaobu scratched her head. She seemed to have heard a lot of things just now, but she couldn't remember them clearly.

The friends around were still making a lot of noise.

Xiaobu lowered her head to look at the Bible. She had just turned to the chapter on steam engines. She didn't know what a steam engine was, so she couldn't understand it.

Now, seeing the steam engine, the words whispered in her dream suddenly emerged in her mind -

"The hot steam from boiling water has tremendous power and can move heavy steel."

Heavy steel.

Xiaobu's eyes lit up and he ran his fingers over the illustrations in the scripture.

In the picture, boiling water vapor is drawn in a cylinder.

Lower Rhine, church food distribution point.

At this time, the believers had just finished their food and were singing in unison, praising the candlelight.

But one of the believers was suddenly stuck. He looked around first, then raised his head in confusion.

He felt like he was just dazed, as if he heard something, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing.

Perhaps it was an illusion, the believer thought, and habitually prepared to continue chanting the candlelight.

But just as he started, his praise was interrupted.

He frowned and raised his head, looking at the believers around him, at the priest in front of him, and finally looking upwards at the candlelight painted on the sky.

"Gravity. Will the Upper Rhine, built on the dome, one day fall to the ground like that bamboo pole?"

In a closed room, a group of people holding lanterns are surrounding a person.

A sharp horn beak was sewn onto his face, and beneath the thick, cloudy round lenses, his eyes were devoid of all rationality.

"Another companion has fallen into eternal madness."

"Is this the fate of the Skin-Covered?"

"Give him a quick death, don't let him turn into a monster!"

The people around looked sad, but finally they raised a heavy musket with a sigh.

"Wait, don't shoot, he seems to be listening to something?"
