Chapter 290 Mural
Feeling the aura as thick as the earth, Zhou You and the elves were all stunned. It took a moment to react and slowly walked into the buried tower with a faint light on the wall.
Groudon was not here, which made Zhou You somewhat relieved.
"Qiaoqiao, look at the lines on the ground."
Eden's reminder made everyone subconsciously look at the huge lines on the broad ground that looked like some kind of writing.
Unfortunately, Zhou You had never seen relevant information at the Oak Research Institute, and this time he knew nothing about things on the ground. The only thing that can be understood is the Omega symbol, which is the pattern that appeared on Groudon after his original return.
"The Land of the End." Reshiram helped translate. "What is painted on the ground is the symbol of Groudon."
After traveling around and hearing the words, he roughly determined the year when this buried tower was built.
About 1,000 years ago, a huge meteorite fell into the ocean and cracked the earth, allowing natural energy to spurt out. Only then did Groudon and Kyogre transform into their "primitive return" forms and spread out in the Hoenn region. A great war.
Unless the builders of this tower came from ancient times whose age is unknown, it could only be the place where the Hoenn people who were displaced during the war a thousand years ago built it.
The Hoenn people built this tower in the Johto area.
A tower that can summon the two fools of Hoenn through red and blue orbs...
Zhou You was lost in thought, and a conjecture gradually formed in his mind. Perhaps the purpose of building this tower was not to worship the power of nature as a god.
Just as he recalled that there were other opportunities for the Hoenn people to see Yuan Gu Yuan Gai except a thousand years ago, Arthur discovered something on the surrounding walls.
So it flew into the air with the camera in hand (flying here is a bit bold), and used its tail flame as illumination to take pictures of the murals on the wall.
"Instant" cameras develop photos very quickly.
Zhou You couldn't see clearly the contents of the murals in the distance. At first, he thought that the murals in this tower were similar to the three murals in the Fengyuan area. They were all describing the dark battle a thousand years ago.
However, the first moment he saw the photo, he realized that his guess about the age of the tower might be wrong.
There are words in the shape of unknown totems on the mural to explain the meaning, and the bottom is its name - A Pokemon creation myth frieze.
※From the setting draft of Detective Pikachu.
"How come there are murals related to the creation myth in a place like this? Did the Sinnoh people also participate in the construction of the Buried Tower?"
How come there is information about the Sinnoh people everywhere in the Lantern Volcano, the Ruins of Alfu, the Ruins of the Divine City, Padea, and the Buried Tower?
Zhou You then looked at the content of the photo:
On the far left is a cosmic egg in the land of nothingness, from which the alpaca was born. Then he created the three gods of time, space, and antimatter (from left to right), and then created the three lakes of red, yellow, and blue. The Holy Spirit (from top to bottom), the alpaca fell into a deep sleep.
After that, Rayquaza, Kyogre, and Groudon appeared (from left to right), and after that, the Pillar King and the Pillars (Titans) appeared.
Finally, on the far right side of the mural, the dream above depicts the evolution of the first generation of the Yusan family.
"Jojo, what's painted on it?" Eden couldn't understand it at all. "I can only recognize the four on the far right. They should be Mew, Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle."
Zhou You nodded: "Yes, what is described here is what the people of Sinnoh and Hoenn have experienced from the origin of the world to the present."
Arceus created the space-time antimatter of the material world, the emotions, will and wisdom of the spiritual horizon, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Rayquaza was born in the atmosphere, Kyogre was born in the ocean that nurtured life, and then life in the ocean moved to land and Groudon was born (although in mythology, it is the latter two who created the ocean and land respectively).
Behind this is Regichicas, which symbolizes the movement of the earth's crust, and the family of pillars it created.
In the end, all life in this world was reproduced from dreams.
Scientists have discovered the genes of all (known) elves in Mew's genes, and because it can master all skills, scholars believe that it is the ancestor of all elves.
"So is this true? Why aren't Reshiram and Zekrom up there?" Eden seemed a little curious about this.
Traveling around the stalls, all the "legends", "myths", "said", "believed" and "guessed" are ancient and modern humans' summaries and inferences about the objective world. Even if they are registered in illustrated books, it is difficult to judge their authenticity. How high exactly.
Maybe we can only get the answer by asking the elves in question, or maybe even they don't know the specific situation - just like the dream of the original tree of the world who doesn't know all the questions - maybe in the end they have to ask alpacas or time and space. The Three Antimatter Gods search for answers.
Dialga, who can see through the past and present, probably knows everything.
As for why the black and white dragons are not here...
"We have nothing to do with Creation, and we have never set foot on this land before. Of course, the legends here will not include us." Reshiram explained.
Moreover, the division between black and white and gray happened two thousand and five hundred years ago. Compared with the super ancient elves in this painting, they are not too old, so naturally they cannot participate in the "creation".
They are more closely related to human civilization than the natural world.
After putting away all the photos taken by Arthur, Zhou You carefully observed the surrounding terrain.
The huge and empty circular space has Groudon's pattern painted on the ground. There is a gap between the central area and the edge of the tower. The walls are interspersed with stairs composed of green boulders that have been mostly broken.
Although Zhou You did not hold the other two orbs, they still forcibly broke the seal thanks to Reshiram's magical power.
The bottom layer that was submerged in the sea was submerged in water, and it was temporarily difficult to get down without equipment, but the upper layer was unimpeded, and Arthur took him up easily.
The structure of the second floor is basically the same as that of the first floor. The difference is that the lines on the ground symbolize Rayquaza, and the room is filled with the energy of the sky.
The murals are the same as those on the first floor, and do not further elaborate on the ancients' views on mythology.
"The photos have been taken, but unfortunately there are no inscriptions left here like the Seven Islands. What can be investigated is very limited."
The ancient people who lived here did not seem to have the same desire to express themselves as the compatriots at Dengshan Mountain and Aluf Ruins. However, there is still a layer submerged in the sea that has not been explored, so we cannot be so sure yet.
"As you can see, there is basically nothing here and it is not suitable for staying overnight. Let's just leave and let Reshiram seal this place again."
The elves had no objection to this. Except for Arthur who seemed to be familiar with the energy on the second level and enjoyed staying there, the other elves had no special feelings about the atmosphere here.
Before leaving, when the door of the Buried Tower was closed, Zhou You subconsciously glanced at the blurry murals.
Is it an illusion?
He felt that the arrangement of the words on the mural seemed to have changed...
I don’t know if the two new paradox species are locked or not.
