Chapter 894 There is a story
Together with the wise men in the village, he designed a new type of defensive array based on the records in ancient books and inspiration from alien knowledge.
They embedded the spirit crystals into the fortifications around the village and activated the magic circle. Instantly, a transparent light curtain enveloped the entire village, with mysterious runes flashing on the light curtain, emitting powerful energy fluctuations. After testing, this defensive magic circle can not only resist physical attacks, but also rebound energy attacks.
As the defense force increased, Qi Tongwei did not relax his vigilance. He knew that threats in the universe were everywhere, and relying solely on defense was far from enough. So he began to organize the villagers to conduct more systematic military training, not only teaching them various combat skills, but also cultivating their teamwork spirit and adaptability.
During the training, the villagers gradually mastered the method of using the energy of the spirit crystal. Some gifted villagers were even able to integrate the energy of the spirit crystal into their attacks, greatly improving their attack power. Seeing the villagers' strength continue to increase, Qi Tongwei felt very gratified.
However, the peaceful days did not last long. One day, a huge alien spaceship suddenly appeared in the sky. The spaceship had a strange shape, and the surface was shining with metallic luster, exuding a strong sense of oppression. The spaceship slowly landed outside the village, and a group of aliens in silver armor walked out of the spaceship.
These aliens claimed to be from a distant galaxy. They heard that Xiangyang Village had mysterious powers, so they came to explore. Qi Tongwei led the villagers to prepare for battle, and he negotiated with the aliens. The aliens said that they had no ill intentions, but were just curious about the power of the spirit crystal and hoped to communicate and cooperate with Xiangyang Village.
Qi Tongwei knew the dangers in the universe, and he did not easily believe the aliens' words. But for the peace and development of the village, he decided to contact the aliens first, and secretly strengthen the defense. During the communication process, Qi Tongwei found that these aliens did have some advanced technology and knowledge, and they also had unique insights into the research of spirit crystals.
After careful consideration, Qi Tongwei decided to start limited cooperation with the aliens. They jointly studied the secrets of the spirit crystal and shared each other's knowledge and technology. During the cooperation, Qi Tongwei always remained vigilant to prevent any improper behavior of the aliens.
As time went on, the cooperation between Xiangyang Village and the aliens achieved some results. They successfully developed a new type of energy weapon that used the energy of the spirit crystal as a power source and was extremely powerful. At the same time, they also improved the defensive array to make it more solid and flexible.
However, just when Qi Tongwei thought everything was moving in the right direction, an unexpected discovery shattered his fantasy.
That day, Qi Tongwei went to check the cooperative research laboratory as usual. In a hidden corner, he found some strange communication equipment. These devices did not belong to the original technology system of Xiangyang Village. After some investigation, he was shocked to find that these aliens had been using these devices to send detailed information about the progress of spiritual crystal research and the defense layout of Xiangyang Village to their home planet.
Qi Tongwei realized that the so-called cooperation was nothing more than a conspiracy of aliens, and their real purpose was to steal the spiritual crystal technology, then occupy Xiangyang Village and plunder all the resources here. He immediately summoned the backbone of the village and the villagers who participated in the cooperation and told everyone this amazing discovery.
"These aliens are so abominable. We cooperated with them out of kindness, but they plotted against us like this!" Xiaohu waved his fists angrily, his eyes burning with rage.
"Now is not the time to be angry. We have to find a way to deal with it quickly. Since they have exposed their intentions, they will probably launch an attack soon." Qi Tongwei looked solemn, and his tone revealed an unprecedented sense of urgency.
The villagers began to discuss countermeasures nervously. Some suggested destroying the communication equipment immediately to cut off the aliens' contact; others suggested taking the initiative to attack the aliens' spacecraft before they were ready. But Qi Tongwei thought that doing so might alert the aliens and lead to a more intense conflict. He decided to stay put, secretly strengthen defenses, and at the same time look for the aliens' weaknesses and develop a comprehensive counterattack plan.
In the following days, Xiangyang Village still maintained the illusion of cooperation with the aliens on the surface, but secretly, the villagers were preparing for battle. Qi Tongwei led the research team to further study the use of spiritual crystal energy, trying to develop more powerful weapons and defense methods. Military training also became more rigorous, and the villagers practiced day and night to familiarize themselves with the use of various weapons and tactical coordination.
At the same time, the aliens seemed to have noticed something strange. They began to frequently deploy defense facilities around the spacecraft and increased the frequency of patrols. One day, the alien leader found Qi Tongwei and asked him about the progress of the cooperation project in a hypocritical manner, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Qi Tongwei, we have found that your actions are a little unusual recently. Are you hiding something from us?" There was a hint of threat in the alien leader's tone.
Qi Tongwei replied calmly: "No, we are testing new energy weapons recently, so we are quite busy. Everything is going well with the cooperation project, you don't have to worry."
Although Qi Tongwei appeared calm, he knew that the conflict between the two sides had reached a point where it was about to explode and war could break out at any time. After returning to the village, he became more determined to speed up the counterattack plan.
During an in-depth study of the energy of the spirit crystal, the research team made an unexpected discovery. They found that the energy fluctuations of the spirit crystal were subtly related to an ancient relic in the back mountain of Xiangyang Village. When the energy of the spirit crystal reached a certain intensity, some strange phenomena would appear around the relic. Qi Tongwei keenly realized that this relic might be the key to cracking the alien conspiracy.
He led an expedition team and headed to the back mountain again. When they approached the ruins, they found that the energy fluctuations here were indeed extremely strong. At the entrance of the ruins, there were ancient symbols and patterns engraved, which were different from those seen in ancient books and alien bases before. Qi Tongwei carefully studied these symbols, trying to find a way to enter the ruins.
After some efforts, they finally found the mechanism to open the door of the ruins. When the door slowly opened, an ancient and mysterious atmosphere came to them. The interior of the ruins was dark and silent, with a faint light flickering on the wall, as if telling an ancient story.
