Sword of Dawn

"Even a powerful spellcaster like you will encounter an invincible enemy?" Laura's eyes widened in astonishment. "And you have been defeated... many times?"

Modil shook his head lightly. Although his memory was a mess, the experience accumulated in his long life had been deeply imprinted in his mind: "There are all kinds of powerful forces in this world, and among mortals there are The powerhouses are far better than me. Once those battleships and chariots that rely on magic power are gathered together, they cannot be matched by any traditional powerhouses, let alone those strange beings living in different dimensions, as well as us. The gods above... Always be humble and cautious is the essence of long-term survival. The great pioneer Gawain Cecil once warned future generations: Blind self-confidence is the first ladder leading to destruction, this is my One of the most esteemed mottos of my life."

Laura showed a thoughtful expression. Although she had been with Mordir for a while, after seeing the real strength of this old mage today, and hearing the other's humble and introspective words, she couldn't help but feel a lot. new emotion.

Mordir's attention quickly shifted to other places. This old man who is keen on adventure and discovery raised his head, and his eyes fell on the explosion crater not far away that was still rising with astonishing heat and filled with all kinds of waste energy. , Joy soon surfaced on his face: "Ah, we still have harvested to check, friends—I thought I accidentally destroyed all the loot, but it seems that the elemental lord and the space rift are both destroyed after the destruction." They left us some good things, do you think these crystalline residues are worth anything?"

The attention of the adventurers finally returned to their "jobs". Lola and her companions followed the reputation and looked towards the still hot land not far away. They saw countless explosion craters bombarded by powerful spells And wrinkled, curled rock formations, fragments of the remains of the elemental lords are scattered throughout, and among the unquenchable flames and clouds of waste energy, fine crystals shimmer like gems at the bottom of the pit, stimulating adventure viewers.

……

In the New Agondor Civic Center, in the dark tower with a rough style and a large scale, the leader Heragore and the speaker Andal sat at a long table and looked at each other. A dragon warrior who came to report the situation stood in front of the two leaders. On the long table between them, there were some fine crystals in boxes.

After a long time, Speaker Andal finally broke the silence. The old black dragon looked strange, and his eyes fell on the warrior who reported the situation: "Are you sure? A legendary mage? In the adventurer's camp?"

"Yes, it has been confirmed. Although we have no way to directly 'test' that human mage for the time being, the battlefield handling team responsible for the aftermath can conclude that it is at least the full attack of the legendary mage," the dragon warrior responded earnestly, "And even if it is placed inside the legendary powerhouse, the strength of that mage should also belong to the upper class."

"This is too weird." Andal frowned, and turned to look at Heragor, "How could a legendary powerhouse and a mage with a high status in the human world run into the adventurer's camp... ...And I heard that he signed up for the ship at the port like other ordinary adventurers. Until today, he was doing some work in the camp like others to help level the terrain and build town shields... Have you seen Is this kind of thing?"

"Like you, I haven't had much contact with the civilized human race in this season. My information comes from the 'inspection records' collected on the Omega network," Heragor shook his head, "But anyway, this is true. It doesn't look like a normal legendary powerhouse's action mode... Could this be some kind of 'hobby' of that mage?"

"If it's really a hobby, it can be explained in any way - human beings are an incredible group, and it's not unusual for one of them to do anything." Andal shook his head with a strange expression, "but that mage claims to be passionate about I only signed up to join this group of adventurers because of adventures. I always have some doubts about it. Now Tarrond is open to the outside world for more than just adventurers, and spend more travel expenses as a tour. Aren't scholars more comfortable than working in an adventurer's camp?"

"If we have a chance, we should find a way to get in touch with that human mage to see what his purpose is." Heragor nodded, "A powerful spell caster like him should not be unknown in human society. , His name should have been included in the old Mithril Treasury archives, but unfortunately our database is completely destroyed now, and most dragons don't know anything about the Loren Continent..."

"Let's observe for a few days first. We need to be prepared before contacting him. After all, he is a legend. According to the standards of the human race, he is a strong man who deserves to be respected. Even in today's Tarrond It is an extremely valuable upper-level combat power," Andal pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "This matter can be put aside for the time being, what I care more about now...is these crystals."

His eyes fell on the small box on the table. In the metal box, the finely divided crystals exuded a faint glow like some kind of gemstone, even though they had been cooled for so long and were placed in a box with magical restraint. In the metal container of the effect, the elemental power contained in it still escapes from time to time, reflected in the perception of Andal and Heragor.

"This is the 'trophy' sent by the adventurer management center, from the defeated elemental lord and the destroyed elemental rift," Andal said, "The extremely high-quality elemental core, pure and stable, placed in the The old Tallond was considered a very valuable industrial raw material... But this is not the point, the point is the magic power remaining in these condensed nuclei, can you feel it, Heragor?"

"Yes, it is very weak, but it does exist. It is a qualitative change after the erosion of magic power... This kind of qualitative change should not occur in the pure elemental field." Heragor nodded slightly, and his expression became serious, " And this is not the first time we have discovered such traces... Three days ago, a combat team in the north also brought back a small amount of condensation core after closing the elemental rift that suddenly appeared, and there were similar qualitative changes in the condensation core. "

"So this cannot be caused by the magic of that legendary mage," Andal said in a deep voice, and at the same time reached out and took out an elemental nucleus the size of a fingernail from the container. His hands became active, and illusory flames and indistinct heat began to rise from the surface, but as the old speaker injected magic power into it, the restless power in the condensed core immediately quieted down, and after a few flickers, it completely became "The change is brought out from the other side of the rift, the side of the elemental domain... As you said, this kind of magic erosion should not occur there."

"Elemental field..." Heragor said thoughtfully, "Not only this kind of nucleation, but also the frequency of elemental fissures has actually increased recently..."

Andal didn't speak for a while, he was meditating, thinking about what the traces of magic power remaining in these condensed nuclei meant, until half a minute later he suddenly said: "Hragor, do you feel this kind of magic power erosion? The aura carried in it is a little... familiar?"

There was a trace of seriousness in Heragor's eyes: "Sure enough, you felt it too. At first I thought it was just my own illusion, after all, it was too weak..."

"It's the kind unique to the deep blue well, the shallow tributaries and the second to sixth layers of the webway," Andal said slowly, "I... am familiar with this kind of thing, you know, there is no such thing in Tarrond I was obsessed for a long time tracking the flow of the Deep Blue Well through the depths of the planet, and observed in its webways for centuries before it was completely sealed off."

Heragor said in a low tone: "What do you think this means?"

"...I'm not sure," Andal shook his head, "The veins of the Deep Blue Well run through the entire planet, and even penetrate multiple realms from the real world to the Shadow Realm and then to the Shadow Realm. Even the elements There are projections of the deep blue well flowing on the borders of the world and the kingdom of God, and its scale is far beyond our imagination. The dragons once studied the deep blue well, but until the final rebellion happened 1807 million years ago, we could not fully draw the deep blue well The network road model of the well... So I don't know what is in the deepest part of this huge magic power flow system, let alone its complete operation law.

"But I know one thing. Under normal circumstances, the veins of the Deep Blue Well flow in an orderly manner. As part of the original structure of this planet, it will never change its 'path' casually, let alone suddenly Leakage, leaving so many erosion marks in the elemental lords and elemental rifts... at least in the past 1807 million years, this has not changed."

"There have been changes," Heragore reminded, "According to the information we recently received from the Theocracy Council, a certain god who sheltered Loren Continent detonated the Deep Blue Well 700 years ago. The world's 'exit' to resist the magic tide, the big bang changed the flow of the Deep Blue Well in the present world-this should be the only change in the past 100 million years."

Andal nodded slightly, his eyes fixed on the fine elemental nuclei in the container for a long time.

"...Shouldn't it be blown up again?"

Chapter 1186 "Celebrity Quotes"

Dirty clouds covered the scorched and rotten land, which had been infiltrated by high-intensity magic energy radiation for seven centuries. In the valleys, plains, hills, and basins hovered the shadows of the defeated and twisted and mutated terrifying monsters. The wind passes through the gaps between the jagged and hideous rock pillars and loose rock walls, stirring up low whimpers on the ground, and there is a pungent smell in the low chirps—that is the magic power is coming. The breath produced by the decomposition of air.

In the hinterland of the ancient Gondor Empire, in a valley hundreds of kilometers away from the Deep Blue Well explosion crater, a "base" entangled with boulders and twisted giant trees is quietly dormant among the rocks.

Intertwined dark brown vines meander through the mountain walls on both sides, interweaving above the valley to form a huge structure like a spider web, and branches with thorns extend from between the vines, cutting the already dark and terrifying sky into The valley covered by the net of thorns is full of boulders, and there are also vines and thorns connecting the stone pillars, forming countless structures like huge walls, and there are many "pipes" formed by wooden structures. Extending from the nearby rocks, the precious water source from the ground flows out of the pipes and flows into the seemingly rough and messy water supply network channels in the valley.

This is a eerie territory for creatures outside the wasteland, but for the twisted creatures living in the depths of the wasteland, this is the most comfortable shelter and the most suitable place to live.

Countless giant trees with grotesque human faces and controlled aberrations are active in this "habitat". They use this place as their foundation to build their own "territory", and at the same time slowly expand their influence outside the valley.

In the middle of the valley, there is an extremely open area. The thorn dome above the area has left a large-scale opening, and the somewhat dim sky can shine into this gloomy place.On a high platform around the open area, several withered and twisted giant trees with human faces are standing on the top of the boulder. They quietly overlook the spiral pit below the high platform, and a faint blue arcane radiance bursts from the pit Come out, reflected on their withered and mutated faces.

After an unknown amount of time passed like this, the leader of the Treants spoke, his voice was like a cracked plank rubbing against the air: "Is this the pulse that runs through our planet...it is as beautiful as a blood vessel, and the inside The huge magic power flowing is like blood... If you can drink this blood, true eternity is indeed not far away..."

"Ah, our venerable Grand Priest still has such a poetic side..." A young female voice came from behind the tree man leader, and next to this voice came another almost identical voice , "It's a pity that there are no poets in this desolate valley—nor any poems worth singing."

The treant leader known as the "Grand Priest" turned around, and there was a rattling sound from his wooden torso. His pair of tawny eyes stared at the elf twins who were walking up the high platform from behind: " Are you so relaxed every day?"

"There are many things we are doing, but you can't see it," Fierna said with a smile, and then Leierna next to her said, "Most of our hard work revolves around brainpower Labor—doesn't seem as busy as those aberrations that carry stones in and out of valleys and dig ditches."

The treant leader seemed to have gotten used to the slightly provocative and irritating way of speaking of the pair of elves. He snorted and looked away, turned around and set his eyes on the deep pit under the high platform again.

It was a deep pit with obvious traces of man-made excavation, with a diameter of more than a hundred meters, and neat black stones were piled up on its edge. The powerful array of magic power that has long been lost in this era, and in the lower part of this circle of "stone ring", is the pit wall that twists and sinks like a vortex, extending tens of meters down the pit wall, is the one that you can see. The chilling "bottom of the pit"——

There were no rocks and soil to be seen there, no ground to tread on, and all that could be seen were one after another endless streams of blue flames flowing wantonly in a vast void of space.

The soil and rocks stopped abruptly there, and the bottom of the pit seemed to lead to an infinitely wide place, which even gave people an illusion, as if the planet under the feet of all living beings had only this thin layer of shell, and this deep pit After piercing through this shell, people can directly see the hollow structure inside the planet - countless blue flames form a criss-cross network in that space, just as the treant leader said just now, they see It looks like intertwined blood vessels.

But this "hollow planet" scene is actually just a visual illusion - the interior of this planet is certainly not hollow, and it is impossible for this large crater with a diameter of only more than a hundred meters to penetrate the planet's crust. The scene is just a "crack" projected by magic power, and the environment at the bottom of the pit is more similar to a teleportation entrance. What is shown inside... is a magic power network path that mortal races cannot directly touch.

That is the body deep in the deep blue well, the "vein" buried deep in the lower layer of the real world and running through the entire planet.

"Such a huge amount of magic power flows in the dark blue network channel, connecting all the realms of this planet, exchanging huge amounts of energy..." The treant leader stared at the bottom of the pit, and said in a deep voice after a long time, "It's just like the magic power. 'Source' is average..."

"People who don't know the inside story are really prone to have such an illusion when they see the body of the dark blue webway, and regard the magic power cycle inside a mere planet as the source of all magic power in the world—just like short-sighted insects and ants climbing a plant of grass Ye, I thought I had reached the end of the earth," Fierna shook her head, and then Leierna also shook her head, "But after all, it is a superficial cognition, the magic comes from the stars and our sun. The 'sub-stellar body' is the soft singing of those huge and ancient celestial bodies in the vast ocean of the universe-compared with the ripples from the stars, the deep blue well on our planet..."

The elf twins smiled slightly, but there was a hint of sarcasm in their sweet smiles: "It's just a puddle of water shining in the sun. It reflects the sun and shines brightly, but it will evaporate in a moment in front of the eternal sun." disappear."

The treant leader's eyes fell on the pair of elf twins with sweet smiles, his yellow-brown eyes remained motionless as if frozen, and it took him a long time to break the silence: "Sometimes I am really curious, where do you come from with such mysterious knowledge? ... Don't talk about the ancient inheritance of the elves or the secret information of the Gondor Empire. I have experienced the age of Gondor and traveled to many places in the Silver Empire. Although I dare not say that I have insight into all the knowledge in the world, at least I can Definitely... many of the things you know are not in the domain that mortals have ever touched."

"Is this question very important?" Ferna tilted her head slightly, "Facts have finally proved the authenticity of the knowledge we brought, and you have already benefited greatly from this knowledge..."

"We have accurately determined the location of another 'pulse' in the ancient Gondor Empire," Leierna also slightly tilted her head, "and instructed you how to steal energy from the Deep Blue Well to open this vein .”

The elf twins smiled at the same time, and said in unison: "We have always tried our best to help—unfortunately, you always seem to have countless doubts and cautions."

The tree man leader stared at the smiling elf twins, and let out a dissatisfied cold snort from his wooden body: "Hmph, your mysterious way of speaking and annoying fake smiles can only make me I'm even more skeptical... Has no one ever taught you how to speak well?"

"Well, if you request that," said the elf twins in unison, "then we can talk to you in a more serious way in the future."

"...No, let's forget it," the treant leader didn't know what to think, and shook his withered canopy in a disgusted tone, "Imagine what it would be like for you to speak seriously... that's too disgusting."

The elf twins didn't seem to care about such a harsh evaluation at all. They just turned their heads with a smile, and their eyes fell on the bottom of the pit under the high platform, watching the "dark blue webway" that was constantly flowing in another dimension. It took a few seconds before he suddenly said: "We must remind you, Your Excellency the Grand Master Borken, that your actions last time were too risky. Although you will not meet the 'gaze' from the real world and the gods when you act in the elemental field , and will not alarm the ancient ghost parasitic in the server matrix in the depths of the wasteland, but the elemental world has its own rules of the elemental world... The troubles there are no easier to deal with than those guys outside the wall."

"...I don't need you to remind me, I know what I'm doing," the Treant leader responded indifferently, "We need more parameters of the Deep Blue Network Road, so that we can determine the best control node. We have already delayed too much in this step For a long time, in order to break through this barrier, it is totally worth taking a little risk."

"Well, since you are so confident, it is inconvenient for us to say more," the elf twins shook their heads, and Leierna added later, "But we still want to remind you that the webway nodes opened up here are not Not safe, under no circumstances try to intercept anything directly from these veins... almost 80.00% of them flow to the deep blue well in the center of the old empire, the ghost that lives in the server matrix... maybe she has Declined a bit, but she still holds these most powerful 'tributaries'."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention to it, we haven't been 'hunger to eat' to this point."

Grand Master Borken left this sentence in a slightly blunt tone, and then squirmed his roots, turned around and walked slowly towards the bottom of the high platform, and the tree people standing with him also moved one after another. Get out of here one by one.

Only the Elven Twins remained on the high platform of circular boulders, and around them the ever-turbulent wind of the wasteland.

"Impatience, really impatient..." Leierna shook her head and sighed, "Human beings are really impatient creatures, even if the life form becomes like this, it won't improve much."

"But it is this 'impatient' character that allows these short-lived creatures to create countless surprises," Fierna laughed, "Don't you expect such surprises?"

"Well, that's true..."

……

At the northern foot of the Dark Mountains, southwest of Cecil City, in the large-scale confidential facility "Project 115" hidden deep in the mountains and dense forests, the mountain cave where the main test site is located is brightly lit.

The high-power magic spar lamp installed on the ceiling cast bright light, illuminating the countless large and small platforms on the test site and the complex frame structures fixed and connected between platforms. The platform area is being tested and adjusted, with hundreds of technicians busy all over the proving ground, construction vehicles and small patrol cars on the road between the platforms.

In the central area of ​​the testing ground, a special large-scale platform has just been adjusted. Rebecca walked up the steps and walked towards the testing area in the center of the platform. Behind her was Gawain who came specially from Cecil City.

"Master Ancestor, we have finally settled this guy!" Standing in the center of the platform, Rebecca happily turned her head to look at her ancestor, pointing with one hand at the large container and the container not far away. The surrounding accessory device group, "The technician just gave it a physical examination, and now it is in very good condition~~"

Gawain glanced at Rebecca, who was obviously over excited, with a little doting, and then looked up at the "experimental unit" not far away. In his line of sight, a large hemispherical container was quietly placed on the testing ground. On the pedestal in the center of the platform, crystal containers of different sizes, connecting pipes, and nerve connector groups are arranged around the container. At this moment, the cover device of the hemispherical container is not closed, and he can clearly see that the container is full of A thin translucent nutrient solution, and a huge mass of brain-like biological tissue is soaking in the solution.

The brain floated leisurely in the solution, and even looked a little...enjoyed.

After watching it like this for a few seconds, Gawain still couldn't help muttering: "No matter how many times I watch it... the thing Beltera tossed up is still so weird..."

"It's actually okay. I was taken aback when I first saw it, but I got used to it after watching more." Rebecca scratched her head with a pure and bright smile on her face, "And these Servo brains are actually quite interesting, and you might even find them a bit cute after getting along for a long time—they are all hardworking and sensible guys, and they will obediently obey no matter it is a calculation task or a request for fitness..."

"I think it's already weird that a group of brains acting as computer hosts suddenly come out of their slots to do some exercise..." Gao Wen couldn't help covering his forehead, "But since you all can accept this style of painting, That's fine."

Rebecca grinned, and then changed the topic to a place she was familiar with: "After this set of wetware mainframe is debugged, we can start the next test—let it coordinate those new anti-gravity The operation of the group. According to the data obtained by Glenn Heavy Industries, the work efficiency of the servo brain in this area is dozens or even hundreds of times that of humans, and the problems we have been troubled with will definitely be solved. "

"Don't relax in such a hurry." Although Gao Wen knew that Rebecca was relatively reliable in the technical field, he couldn't help reminding at this time, "Do a few more simulation tests and start the equipment on a small scale first. The larger the scale of the thing, the more cautious it is to operate——your aunt can't stand any more stimulation."

"Don't worry, don't worry," Rebecca immediately shrank her neck when she heard the word "aunt", and then nodded repeatedly, "I know, just like your famous saying when you were alive, 'Blind self-confidence is The First Stairway to Destruction' - I have memorized it seriously..."

Gao Wen was surprised when he heard this, and he didn't even pay attention to the "lifetime" phrase used by the girl: "Famous quote? When did I say such a sentence?"

Rebecca was taken aback: "...Hey? Didn't you say that? This sentence is included in the famous sayings that must be memorized in textbooks..."

Gao Wen: "I didn't say that - I doubt that some scholar who didn't make up enough space for the book said it for me."

Rebecca: "...?"

Chapter 1187 Rebecca's New Idea

A low humming sound resounded on the test platform in the central area. A series of neural devices and biomass circulation equipment connected to the platform were "warming up" before the official launch, and the "mastermind" in the center of the platform had completed all tasks. The inspection and adjustment process is currently in a shallow sleep state waiting to wake up.

Gao Wen looked away from the main brain, with a helpless smile on his face: "There are many 'famous quotes' related to me left in the book, some of them are more or less reliable, and some of them I really don't know. Knowing when it was placed on one's own head - this kind of thing happens often, and it's not surprising."

However, Rebecca turned into a sad face, as if thinking of something very sad: "But I really spent a lot of effort to memorize these things when I was young, and my aunt changed several staffs..."

Gao Wen: "..."

The most troublesome thing for this girl to recite the famous sayings of her ancestors is the magic staff in her aunt's hand. This made outsiders hear it for a while, but they may not be able to react!

"Cough, think about it, it's always good to learn more principles." After being stunned for a while, Gao Wen coughed dryly to bring the topic back, and at the same time reached out and pressed Rebecca's head to comfort the girl—— Although she is no longer a child, the habits she has developed in the past few years are not so easy to change, "I have actually read a lot of those famous sayings, whether they are true or not, at least they are good in thought, so I They did not ask the officials in charge of education to do anything to 'refute the rumors' of those famous sayings that have been circulating for a long time, nor did they ask the college to delete those words from the books, but only asked to remove a few contents that do not conform to the background of today's era..."

Rebecca had to accept the old ancestor's reasoning, but still couldn't help asking: "My lord ancestor, there are so many things that have been passed down for hundreds of years and sound reasonable... It's really not you who said it yourself. yes?"

Gawain looked at the curious Rebecca, and could only show a helpless smile: "Actually, you will understand this matter when you think about it. You put the stories and poems in various books that are said to come from 'Gao Wen the Pioneer'." ·Cecile's famous quotes and quotes are collected to see how many there are, and then think about when your ancestors were killed in battle - I was only 700 when I was killed 35 years ago, 15 years of which were unknown, and the remaining 20 years It’s all used for fighting, how much time do I have to think about the philosophy of life? If I really live by the words, deeds and quotations compiled by the scholars of later generations, I’m afraid I’ll be a philosopher when I eat and sleep…”

Rebecca nodded thoughtfully, as if she thought it made sense, but after thinking about it, she said, "But actually I don't think it's impossible—see the Holy Word compiled by Amber, isn't it?" Is it very diligent to publish, and can publish such a big book every month..."

Gao Wen's expression was quite indifferent just now, but now his eyes widened: "Huh? You usually look at that thing too?!"

Rebecca knew something was wrong when she saw the old ancestor's expression, she quickly shrank her neck and explained: "I secretly saw what my aunt kept..."

Gao Wen: "..."

Frankly speaking, at this moment, he thought of the scene when he learned about the ridiculous novel about more than 80 princesses from Hetty. His mood was really complicated and inexplicable for a moment, and he couldn't figure it out. Hetty With such a mature and stable person, why does his private hobby turn out to be collecting this? Of course, what he couldn't understand was Amber, how could she care about a copy of "The Sacred Words of Gawain Cecil the Great"? To this extent, it seems that he is more persistent than picking a lock on a slippery door...

His expression was weird, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but Rebecca, who was standing beside him, secretly looked at his ancestor, and slowly a thoughtful look appeared on his face: "Master Ancestor, in fact, I have been It feels like... You actually acquiesced in Amber's doing this, right? Although you always reprimanded her for this incident, and sometimes showed disgust when you saw the notes she sorted out, you never actually forbade her This matter—if you really intend to prohibit it, this matter will be long gone."

Gawain glanced at Rebecca in surprise. He didn't expect that this girl who seemed to be careless about everything on weekdays and only seemed smarter in the technical field would notice and think about this kind of thing. There were many thoughts in him in an instant. His heart was up and down, but after his thoughts flowed, he still didn't say anything, but reached out and stroked Rebecca's hair.

There are some things that Rebecca doesn't need to know... Could there be any important secret behind this?It's just that a person who is tense every day wants to keep some long-term fun for himself, and by the way wants to leave more traces of himself in this world.He didn't know whether Amber, who was busy taking those notes and fighting wits with himself all day long, had been keenly aware of this, but at least now it seemed that this "tacit understanding" would last for a long time.

Rebecca looked at the ancestor who suddenly looked a little different from before, in a daze, and instinctively wanted to ask something, but just before she opened her mouth, she suddenly felt a little itchy in her head—some kind of dependence. The intuition that came from long-term training made her immediately swallow back the words she wanted to say (this is not common for her), and at almost the same moment, a crisp bell sound suddenly came from above the platform, shaking the hearts of everyone on the test site. Attention is drawn to the past.

Gawain immediately looked up at the crystal container not far away. He saw a series of bubbles popping out of the main container and several transparent pipes next to it. Immediately afterwards, the runes around the base of the container began to light up and flicker one after another. , A more obvious buzzing sound and slight tremor than before came from below the platform, and a technician in a white short robe came from the side and came to Rebecca: "Minister, nervous system fusion Done, the remote test site is ready."

"Ah, it's finally done!" Rebecca instantly forgot what she had just talked about with her ancestor. With an excited smile on her face, she turned to look at Gawain, "Master Ancestor! Now you can wake up the mastermind!"

The corner of Gawain's mouth curled up, and he nodded slightly to Rebecca: "Then let's wake it up."

Rebecca took a light breath, and walked to the console next to the main container. She personally entered the main brain's initial activation command in the rune palette, and the next second, the sleeping "biological processor" in the container "Woke up slowly, after a short period of chaos and sluggishness, this huge thinking organ began to feel the nervous system connected to it, and the remote test points distributed around the proving ground——

It "stretched", and hundreds of nerve nodes in the entire test field were injected with life. As the light signals lit up from the ends of the frame structures in the distance, Gawain finally showed a trace of light on his face. Smile.

"This is just the beginning—but we have finally taken a substantial step forward," he looked at Rebecca, without any hesitation in the praise in his words, "Now we have finally found a feasible control center, and we have done a good job , Rebecca."

Rebecca showed a happy smile—in many cases, her overly simple and lively smile seemed a bit silly to Gao Wen. She scratched her hair, and then seemed to suddenly think of something: "By the way, ancestor My lord, speaking of Sky Fortress, I suddenly had some new ideas recently..."

"New ideas?" Gao Wen raised his eyebrows. Although Rebecca's ideas often make people feel at a loss and confusion, only in the field of technology, her new ideas are still very exciting. "you say."

"We are currently communicating with Typhon about the technical plan for advancing to the wasteland. At present, the main method of propulsion on the surface has been determined. The armored train plus the ground troop group will rely on the magic energy track to advance to the wasteland step by step. Part of it is not difficult technically, it only needs to keep up with the production capacity, and as for the sky...our space fortress is just an empty shell so far, and the progress in this area may not be able to keep up."

Gao Wen frowned slightly: "You mean..."

"We may need some compromise solution-something between the dragoon fighter and the air fortress. It can be equipped with high-power shields and armor like the air fortress, and it can be used in the wasteland environment. Runs for a long time, and can be produced relatively quickly, preferably in the airspace near the Great Wall shortly after the completion of those fel tracks pointing towards the wasteland. As you know, we have no shortage of large-scale reaction The technology of the gravity ring, the information provided by the elves has helped us solve the stability bottleneck of this large device, and now we have a usable control center. The only problem facing the flight facility is the factory's capacity..."

"A plan between the Dragoons and the Sky Fortress..." Gawain frowned slightly, thinking, and nodded slowly, "It does sound reasonable. Although Project 115 is important, considering the actual progress, We need a device that can be put into use before Project 115 is completed... don't you already have an idea?"

Rebecca thought for a while, and while sorting out her thoughts, she gestured and said: "Actually, the inspiration is similar to the general chassis of the first generation of magical vehicles. We can now manufacture high-power anti-gravity rings and install them on Within the coverage area of ​​the same power ridge, and there is a way to simultaneously control these anti-gravity rings and prevent them from interfering with each other, then it is completely possible to create a general-purpose large-scale anti-gravity chassis, which is completely feasible in theory.

"The structure of this kind of chassis can be very simple, and the difficulty of manufacturing is far lower than that of an air fortress that is almost the size of a medium-sized castle. After we build it, we can deliver it to various arms or demand departments, and let them design it themselves Or order the load-bearing structure on the chassis, in addition to the basic armor and shield generator, as long as it does not exceed the load limit of the flight platform, you can cover it with anything you want-from barracks to medical stations, from small factories to water purification device, we can dismantle an entire forward camp and install it on more than a dozen such general-purpose platforms...

"I don't know much about military affairs, and I don't know much about your vision of advancing bases for counterattacking the wasteland, but I think this kind of platform will definitely come in handy. Their biggest advantage is their versatility. Although the survivability and combat ability are definitely not as good as the sky fortress, and the flexibility is definitely not as good as the dragoons, just like the front-line engineering vehicles, these platforms can be the basis of many things... Hey, why are you silent, ancestor? "

The iron-headed roe deer barked several times before Gao Wen finally woke up from his almost dazed state. He looked at the great-xN+1 granddaughter in front of him in surprise, and after a long while stretched out his hand to press the top of her head: "What is your brain?" How long..."

Rebecca reacted for a while before blinking uncertainly: "Master Zu, are you complimenting me?"

Gao Wen rubbed the opponent's hair forcefully, and a smile appeared on his face: "Of course, this is of course a compliment—you have found an idea that even I have never thought of before! Anti-gravity technology... so it turns out This convenient technology can also be used in this way...a cheap and high-powered general-purpose air platform? How did I not think of it before..."

While talking, he couldn't help tapping his forehead lightly, a little annoyed by the limitations of his previous thinking. After being exposed to anti-gravity technology so many times, his thinking is still limited to small aircraft, Either you are obsessed with the giant sky fortress in the sci-fi scene, but you never thought of a more convenient application solution that is more suitable for the current situation... In the end, Rebecca's mind suddenly came up with this wonderful idea.
