Pirates of the First Empire

"You know, these energy-type shellfish are not rare items in Sky Island, and they are just one of the daily necessities for ordinary residents of Sky Island..."

"To put it bluntly, for such a tribe with an ancient heritage, even the way of sacrifice is more reasonable than shellfish..."

Carlo slowly stated the basis of his guess. Over the years, he has been with Doyle for so long, so naturally he will not have no progress.

This kind of ability to think about problems, extract and connect important information, and analyze them is what he learned from Doyle, which Charon cannot learn.

"Technology...energy..."

"The Second Highness means—"

Tezolo thought thoughtfully, Tezolo is not a reckless man like Charon, even compared to Ah Da, Hart, and Victor, the three complete combat talents, Tezolo is more powerful in terms of overall planning and rationality. Obviously better.

Therefore, after Carlo put forward all the key information, Tezolo already had a vague answer. Of course, because he has not followed Doyle long enough, in terms of "brain hole", he is still better than Carlo is much worse.

"But if the high priest didn't lie, the "gift from God" does exist. Second Highness, if you say that this is lunar technology, how do you explain it?"

Tezolo was a little puzzled. According to Carlofa's analysis, when the temple was no longer a temple, the so-called god-given would naturally no longer be a god-given.

"So, I have a guess."

"Assume that this so-called temple is a technological product with great limitations, and can only be regarded as a semi-finished product. Without anyone operating it, it can only operate according to the established laws..."

"That is to say, it will be turned on automatically during the days of "sacrifice" by the Bika people every year. Naturally, it will absorb the "energy" donated by the Bika people to maintain its own operation.

In order to make the Bika people come on the same day every year, and to prevent them from giving up this "tradition" easily, the "Temple" will give some "feedback" every few years, so that the Bika people come every year. All on time. "

"Bestowed by God, this is what the high priest said. According to the high priest's description of this statement, what did you immediately think of?"

"let me see--"

God-given abilities are not fixed

Each high priest can only accept once

After receiving the gift from the gods, they can become the strongest in the tribe

"Could it be... a devil fruit?!"

Tezolo only felt terrified when he thought about it carefully. If he continued to think in this direction, wouldn't the ability of this "temple" be... impossible?

"That's right, but according to my guess, the ability of this temple is not so mysterious, you don't think this thing can really produce its own devil fruit, right?"

"Isn't that what you mean?"

Tezzolo thought that Carlo's conjecture was exactly what he thought, "This is an instrument invented by the lunar people that can use energy to make devil fruits." Although he always felt that something was wrong, he couldn't tell...

But Tezzolo thought about it again, that's not right, if the lunar people really have the ability to make devil fruits, they still need to stay in hiding in places like Sky Island.

Or is it that the temple already stored a lot of Devil Fruits, and the reason why they haven't been opened in the last few hundred years is because there are no more Devil Fruits in its inventory?

Tezzolo went through a brainstorm, but he still didn't understand what Carlo was thinking. He glanced at Charon from the corner of his eye, and saw that Charon was looking at the dark metal door eagerly, as if he was about to open the door and leave. enter……

Tezuolo could only say in his heart, as expected, His Royal Highness still lived a transparent life, why bother so much, don't you understand after going in and taking a look?

"Don't guess, go in and have a look!"

Just as Tezolo was about to speak, he was interrupted by Carlo's voice. Carlo shook his head and said, after all, he was just guessing, so let's see it first.

……

"Charon, how about it, can you open it?"

Although the people of Bika in recent generations didn't even dare to approach the temple when they were free, Carlo felt that in the history of Bika for so many years, there must have been bold people trying to break in. The high priest didn't know, or just didn't want to say it.

"Yes, yes, but since this door is not a sliding door, it can only be opened by force!"

"Emmm... as expected of you!"

Carlo held his forehead and complained. What he wanted to ask was whether he could open the door normally, not whether he could make a hole in the door...

If possible, Carlo still doesn't want to destroy this so-called "temple". Although it may not belong to Bica in the future, his own things must be protected!

After finishing speaking, Carlo also stepped forward to take a closer look at the gate of this "altar". He said that it was a gate, but if it wasn't for a thin line in the middle that was obviously very inconspicuous, the degree of tight fit, and the appearance of the gate and the main body Oneness, it is completely invisible that this is a door.

As Carlo thought about it, he tapped the metal door tentatively with his hand. This touch reminded him of the doors of the secret project laboratories in the Academy of Sciences and Laboratory Zero, which were also tightly stitched.

"Nothing happens and nothing happens!"

Since the word of mouth passed down by the high priest in each generation, when referring to the temple, he clearly warned future generations that the temple should not be approached, let alone touched.

This obviously has a "blood" lesson in it, that is to say, something happened to someone because of this, but now it seems that nothing happened.

"Second Highness, are you really okay? But, it doesn't make sense. The high priest said that although the gods are gone, their annual sacrifices have not fallen, which means that the temple's ability is still sufficient. ..."

Tezuolo also stared at the "temple" which was motionless for a while, and while speaking, he picked up a golden hammer and hammered it heavily on the gate. After a muffled sound, indeed nothing happened, and the gate also Not a single trace of being smashed...

"Indeed, according to what the high priest said, as usual records, after the sacrifice, the cauldron filled with all kinds of shellfish was automatically emptied overnight, even if it was the latest time, that is to say , in terms of energy, it should not be lacking..."

Carlo is also a little puzzled. Although their strength is not particularly strong, it should not be a problem to deal with this temple's "punishment" once or twice. Now this thing seems to be "dead" and has no response.

"Stop dawdling, it will be dawn if you keep dawdling any longer, just blast the door open and it's over!"

Charon feels that these two people are really hypocritical. If this thing breaks down, it will break down. With Grandpa Figo here, can the people of Sky Island turn upside down?

Charon urged impatiently, in fact, it was still early before dawn, but Carlo and Tezolo just looked at each other and nodded after hearing this time, agreeing to Charon's approach.
