Chapter 980: A Stunned, Dumbfounded Expression

In the Micro Robot's scan, the metal disc resembled a vast world.

Across the expansive land, irregularly shaped steles stood tall.

Both the front and back of each stele were engraved with characters.

The amount of text ranged from tens of thousands to several hundred thousand.

And the total number of such steles exceeded ten billion.

If this were a chip, Lin Feng would not be shocked.

The chips humanity now produces already number over ten billion.

Then try engraving a few thousand characters on each transistor of the hundreds of billions of transistors?

No wonder the ancients didn't know what this was.

Because this is a microscopic world.

Even the most advanced electron microscope today cannot read the characters on these steles.

This is what particularly astonished Lin Feng.

With today's human technology, it would be like carving characters onto a single atom, and carving hundreds of characters onto that atom.

Unfortunately, Lin Feng does not recognize the characters.

They also do not belong to Witch Tribe script.

But since they are characters, their purpose must be to record and transmit knowledge.

What exactly are these characters recording?

Never mind, let the Micro Robot record them first!

On the three‑dimensional display before Lin Feng, strings of characters flashed by.

A moment later, Lin Feng felt his head become hazy and heavy.

Both of his eyeballs began to swell.

Lin Feng quickly withdrew his gaze.

This was still Lin Feng's first attempt at memorizing so much.

Previously, the most he had memorized was information from a few books.

Now, with hundreds of stele inscriptions, he already felt it was impossible.

He knew it wasn't a matter of memory capacity, but that these things were beyond his comprehension.

The brain, during the memorization process, tried to understand.

Thus it got stuck on a trivial point, becoming increasingly blocked.

"So it really is a CD!"

Shu Jingya, seeing Lin Feng come to his senses, said with a surprised expression.

Lin Feng hummed and closed his eyes.

Shu Jingya moved behind him and pressed his temples.

A moment later, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Dear, you've achieved a great feat this time; what kind of reward do you want?"

Shu Jingya said, "I heard your mask production has increased a lot lately; look, people's skin has darkened considerably."

"Snap!"

"Got it!"

Lin Feng snapped his fingers and readily agreed.

Now, for Lin Feng, such a request is not as harsh as before.

His abilities are constantly improving!

…

August 25, 2019, Sunday.

The world is becoming increasingly chaotic.

Modern warfare is no longer about gunfire exchanges or fighting for air superiority.

What matters now is the quantity and quality of Enhancers.

An Enhancer unit equipped with the most advanced technology, a hundred‑person squad, now possesses combat power exceeding that of a former division.

Both in firepower and maneuver speed, they are incomparable to armies made up of ordinary people.

As world affairs have progressed, Lin Feng finally realized his side was also very petty thieves.

Originally possessing crushing force, they could, if they wished, push straight across.

But they kept emphasizing that they would not interfere with others.

In other words, fight among yourselves, just don't provoke me.

While saying that, they sold low‑grade Enhancement Agents over there.

Enhancement Agents now are like weapons sold in World War II—priced but with no market.

The biggest profiteer isn't Guo Jia on our side, nor is it Yue Ya Dao.

It's… Lin Shiyi and his group.

Although Lin Jingru tossed a Mushroom Bomb, reducing the original land of the little settlement by at least a third.

But once the geological activity settled, many factories producing Enhancement Agents were immediately built.

Every day, over ten thousand units of low‑grade Enhancement Agents were loaded onto the Jasmine vessel and shipped to where customers needed them.

The transactions were all paid in gold.

If there's no gold, it doesn't matter; it can be something else.

Such as rare metals, or even land.

According to Lin Shiyi, the combined land of Mi Guo and Europe is even larger than the former territory of little Japan.

Others also want to make this money, but production can't keep up!

Because Lin Shiyi's side possesses infinite replication technology of the substrate.

The speed is also relatively fast.

If others' speed of making Enhancement Agent is like a handicraft workshop, then Lin Shiyi's factory is an assembly line.

If it weren't for another reason, Lin Feng estimates that the money of that bunch of little guys would have surpassed his as their father.

That other reason is, of course, that Qi Yao takes ninety percent of the patent fees.

For an Enhancement Agent that costs one tael of gold per unit, Qi Yao would take nine taels from it.

Science and technology are not only the primary productive force, but also a money-printing machine.

This war, it looks like it will have to be fought for several more years.

All the wealth of the world is converging toward one place.

Nowadays, the most comfortable place in the world is Huaxia.

……

On the 26th, Tai Yin, who hadn't been in contact with Lin Qiuxia for a long time, contacted Lin Qiuxia again.

In the form of a video call.

Tai Yin is still very satisfied with the current situation on Earth.

Because she can foresee that in just a few years, Earth will be peaceful, completely controlled by Huaxia.

Now it's just the darkness before dawn.

After chatting about some situations on Earth, and at the moment when the contact was about to end, Lin Qiuxia took a segment of text carved on a stele,

and sent it to Tai Yin in the form of an image.

After seeing it, Tai Yin had a stunned, dumbfounded expression.

That expression was frozen on the Large Screen in front of Lin Qiuxia.

It is probably because Tai Yin's emotions fluctuated too greatly; her side's Intelligent Program, in order to protect Tai Yin, cut off the contact.

Lin Qiuxia hehe-laughed and kept Tai Yin's expression.

Later, when she became an auntie, this became her blackmail material!

Of course, this is also a very important piece of information.

This shows that Lin Feng's guess is correct; that younger sister Tai Yin must have seen such a textual symbol before.

Or she is very familiar with it.

The reasons for her shock are nothing more than two kinds.

One is the text itself.

For example, it represents a long-vanished civilization.

Two is the information contained within the text.

But no matter which, it shows that that metal plate is very precious, extremely precious.
