Chapter 1143 Unexpected Ending
The latest website: The hatching room inevitably fell into silence again. Gao Wen sat in the armchair with a serious expression and fell into long-term thinking. The subtle hum of the ventilation system seemed to come from far away. The wind dispelled the heat of this summer afternoon, but it couldn't dispel the pressure and shadow from the truth of the world. This kind of thinking lasted for an unknown amount of time. He heard Enya's voice from the side:
"It is precisely because the natural laws of the world have been so cruel from the very beginning, seeking refuge from the gods has become a path that all mortals have to choose in the end... However, even the protection of the gods is only a part of these cruel rules. ——This is the weakness of the creatures in the world in the face of the mighty power of nature. They can only choose to face the bleak future, or a bottle of poison that is intoxicating.
"I have witnessed many glorious civilizations, they have also worked hard on the road to seek the truth, or bravely faced their gods, and many of their great individuals have made wise decisions, allowing the entire ethnic group to prosper to Can touch the sky, even come to knock on the gate of Tarrond, and those who are the most outstanding, finally know the truth.
"Unfortunately, I saw them trembling in the face of the truth, some of them bowed their heads, returned to the embrace of the gods, clipped their wings, and hoped to live on this planet for a long time... No race No one dared to knock on the gate of the universe at the risk of losing their asylum."
Gawain stared at the rune on Enya's eggshell: "We are the ones who dominate the Loren continent today, and those civilizations that have been glorious in history have hardly left any traces. Facts have proved that their hopes are not enough. Unfulfilled - the Gods system is an ever-expanding time bomb that eventually consumes them like a demonic tidal wave."
"But at least they lived longer than other races." Enya said lightly.
"But the dragons of Tarrond were unwilling to accept this kind of 'tranquility'. They chose the most difficult path," Gao Wen said, "They took the initiative to break the protection you provided, and chose to believe in the power of mortals themselves Wisdom and intelligence can fight against this cold universe—it may be a fact that the creatures in the world are weak, but now there is a race that dares to stand up."
Enya was silent for a moment, and suddenly said with a chuckle: "After witnessing the starship of the voyager piercing the sky, the light of the jump engine lighting up the night, and witnessing the huge expedition fleet sailing into the universe, the immigrant mothership After casting shadows covering half of the continent, who would want to live forever on a speck of dust in the universe with their heads down? Perhaps the fate of the Dragon Clan has been changed since the day the Voyager landed on this planet ...though they didn't take us, they did show us a way...a way to survive among the stars.
"Dragon is a race that refuses to admit defeat. As their former god, I know this very well—since the day the sailor left, the head of the dragon clan has never lowered."
Gao Wen sighed in his heart: No matter where the sailor is now,
Regardless of whether their long expedition has reached their goal or not, their journey in this star space has indeed changed too many things. The most precious "legacy" they have shown to the world may not be those advanced The satellites and space stations are not a "loosening" of the indigenous civilization of this planet in ancient times, but a possibility, a possibility that can still move forward in the seemingly hopeless darkness.
"I want to know, what is the principle behind your divine power to protect Tarrond in the demonic tide?" He suddenly asked, "Although we don't intend to choose the path of 'God's protection', I believe one thing However, since the gods are also part of the natural laws of this world, the related 'miracles' and 'shelter' must have laws to follow. As long as the laws can be recognized and analyzed, then we must have a way to safely Master it."
"This is indeed something you would say." Enya seemed to have a hint of a smile in her tone, but soon the smile turned into a sigh, "Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to this question either."
"You don't know?" Gawain's eyes widened immediately, "You have used your own power to protect the Dragon Clan for more than a million years, but you don't know how you did it?"
"I know a lot of things, but this is the only area I can't explore—because God can't analyze the thought itself," Enya said regretfully, "I have also tried to find out that I can protect the dragon's cognitive system in the magic tide ', in the hope that if one day I perish, this technical information will allow them to create a new defense system, but in several magic waves, I found that this process exceeded my...'observation'. I don't I know how to explain this kind of thing to you, because I have a different 'perspective' and 'margin of self' from ordinary people, if I have to give an example... It's like people can't see what's behind them without the help of tools thing."
Gao Wen listened carefully to Enya's explanation, and then he frowned and thought for a moment before breaking the silence: "Actually, we still have a clue...God cannot analyze the trend of thought itself, which shows that the key factor to protect observers in the tide of magic is Is it 'ideology'?"
"I think it's possible to guess like that," Enya said approvingly, "That's my thinking too—it's a pity I can't verify it myself."
"Then this happens to be the direction we are researching now," Gawain exhaled the turbidity in his chest, his brows stretched slightly, "controllable thoughts, mental protection based on thoughts, shielding technology against divinity, mental calibration... Maybe, Are we on the right path?"
The voice in the golden giant egg did not answer for a while, but the runes on the surface of the pale golden eggshell became a little lighter. After a few seconds, Enya slowly said in a tone mixed with relief and caution: "Perhaps... after so many years, this cruel world has finally decided to show a little kindness to the creatures in the world."
"Compared to the goodwill shown by the world, I am more willing to believe that any chance of survival depends on mortals to fight for themselves," Gao Wen smiled and shook his head, "But I still hope that what you said is right, and I will repay the future. Optimism and anticipation."
Enya smiled slightly, and then asked, "What else do you want to know?"
Gao Wen thought about it carefully, checking whether there were any omissions in his question, and at the same time sorting out the information he had obtained. After sorting it out, he thought he had gained enough today, but he was just preparing to Before getting up to thank him, a question that he had never thought about before suddenly popped up in his mind, which made him stop.
"There is a question," he sat up straight, his eyebrows frowned again, "about the Principality of the Holy Dragon... Tarrond survived the demon tide time and time again by relying on the big shield and your protection, but the Holy Dragon What about the Principality? They are out of your sight, and out of the protection of the great shield of Tarrond, how did they..."
Enya's voice was silent for a moment, and then came into Gao Wen's ears in a low voice: "How many Holy Dragon Principalities do you think the current 'Sacred Dragon Principality' is?"
Gao Wen: "..."
"Gao Wen, my friend, seeking a way to survive in this world has never been a tender fairy tale, nor is it a knight's game in which the hero can usher in the light with a single call," a low and soft voice came from the golden dome. Voice, "Although I know you are well aware of this, many times, we still have to remind ourselves all the time."
Gao Wen didn't speak, but unconsciously tapped the armrest of the seat slowly, his face became a little solemn and solemn, and Enya's voice sounded again after a while, reaching his ears: "We have talked a lot today. , at the very end, I have some small suggestions."
Gao Wen raised his eyes and looked in Enya's direction: "Suggestion?"
"Although this planet is just a speck of dust in the universe, even on this speck of dust, there are still many fields that mortals have never explored. You have made great progress in the field of long-distance voyage, and you have The sea monsters, who can be regarded as allies, help...so if you have spare energy, go to explore those distant strange continents. In the past civilization replacement, there were also intelligent creatures that rose on other continents. Although they have disappeared, But perhaps there are still some useful traces of civilization left, and there are also some continents where the legacy left by the sailors can still be found, and precious secrets may be buried there.
"During the age of mythology, both the dragons and I were bound by the 'two-way shackles'. We couldn't explore things that were too far away from Tarrond or had a deep connection with the sailor...but now, the shackles are gone."
Gao Wen didn't expect the other party's suggestion to be so specific and clear-cut. His expression became solemn, and he nodded very seriously: "Thank you very much for your suggestion—don't worry, I understand the value of ocean exploration. The exploration of other continents and distant sea areas is already in my future plan, which will be one of the goals of the alliance in the next stage."
"That's good," Enya said with a sense of relief in her voice, and a smile appeared in her tone again, "Then are there any other questions?"
Gao Wen thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head slowly: "Not for the time being - I have harvested enough information today, and these things are enough for me and the scholars to digest for a while. Of course, if I think of anything later, I will definitely be fine." I'll come to you and ask."
"You are welcome at any time, of course the premise is that I can answer those questions," Enya chuckled, seeing that Gao Wen had got up, she said suddenly, "Don't leave in a hurry, we have talked for so long, do you want to have a drink? thing?"
Gao Wen was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help showing a pleasant smile on his face. He looked at the long table behind Enya, and said with an expectant tone, "You succeeded?"
"I'm not sure yet. After all, the 'reflection' that is a miracle of gods can no longer be reproduced. I can only try to concoct a 'mortal drink' that can be mixed with secular materials based on your description," Enya said as she spoke. , while the invisible magic power was running, a cylindrical container and a porcelain water cup floated behind her. The container made a slight sound during the floating process. It was obviously full of liquid, and there might be ice cubes in it. "It probably still doesn't taste like the one you remember, but hopefully it's at least a little more palatable and relieves your fatigue and stress."
"I'm already looking forward to it," Gao Wen couldn't help but said with a smile. He watched the container being pulled by an invisible force in mid-air, pouring some dark brown liquid into the porcelain cup, and the sound of bubbles bursting could be heard. Come on, "By the way, has anyone tasted it now?"
"No, after all, this is specially made for you," Enya said while handing the cup to Gao Wen, "I tried a little myself, but my sense of taste seems to be different from that of ordinary people... even Whether it has a sense of taste or not is still a question.”
While speaking, Gao Wen had already taken the glass, and he looked down at the swaying dark brown liquid in the glass. Enya's words made him hesitate, but after confirming that there was no strange smell coming from the liquid, he then Picking up the cup, he took a big gulp down.
An indescribable, extremely choking smell—Gao Wen felt that it even had an "indescribable" smell that rushed up in an instant, and it was also mixed with a biting chill and a huge amount of compressed gas released. It violently impacted his senses, and the willpower of the legendary strongman only persisted in the face of this force for less than two seconds.
"puff--"
In all fairness, it would be impolite to spray water on a lady at close range, especially since this lady is technically a goddess (although she is now in the form of an egg) - but Gawain couldn't hold back.
The dark brown liquid flowed down Enya's eggshell, and the atmosphere in the hatching room became a bit awkward. Gawain held half a glass of "indescribable mixed special drink" in his hand, staring at the scene in front of him with a stiff expression, for a long time Only then did he choke out a sentence: "Ah, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to..."
"It seems that my first attempt was not successful." Enya's voice came from the eggshell, but she was still very calm and serious, "I need to adjust the ratio of various materials... Do you have any suggestions? Judging by the taste you just tasted."
"...I feel like I have lost the memory just now," Gao Wen's mouth twitched, "Anyway, my only suggestion is that you don't let others try this thing, they don't necessarily have a legendary physique."
"Well, I totally understand, it seems that the degree of failure is a bit serious-more radical improvement is necessary," Enya's voice is still serious, "Sorry, how are you doing?"
"Fortunately, at least I didn't swallow it just now," Gao Wen said dumbfoundedly. He felt that he should comfort Enya, who had failed the "experiment", at this time, but he swallowed the words back. The voice didn't sound frustrated at all, but seemed to be full of some kind of fighting spirit, which made him feel that it might be a good thing not to comfort him at this time - and what Enya needs more than comfort is to wipe, "I still Let me wipe it for you first..."
"I'll let Betty wipe it off later, it's almost time for her to help me wipe the eggshells," Enya said, "compared to me, do you need to change your clothes? "
Gao Wen looked down at his chest, only to find that his clothes were also wet, he sighed dumbfounded: "Well, I didn't expect this in-depth discussion to end in such a way... In a sense, it's a shame. It really relieved me a lot of pressure. Then I will take the first step."
"Go slowly, I'm sorry I can't send it away, and please look forward to my next finished product - I just had an improvement plan, and I am very confident this time."
Gao Wen: "..."
