Chapter 1156 The Atmosphere Is Gone

Latest website: Cecil Palace.

The bright sunshine of midsummer spilled into the long corridor through the large crystal glass windows, and the chirping of summer insects came from the direction of the courtyard one after another. The sunlight fell obliquely on Gawain's shoulders. He couldn't help but stopped, and looked in the direction of the summer insect's sound in a daze.

Midsummer... In this luxuriant season, the most lively day of the year is ushered in the courtyard. The continuous sound of insects indicates a small vibrant world hidden in shrubs, bushes, and nurseries. And beside the fountain, countless insects, ants and small animals breed during the period, and take the time to multiply and thrive in the season when food is abundant and rain is abundant.

The brilliant sun in the sky brought abundant energy to those little creatures.

However, the life of summer insects is short-lived, especially in this northern country, the energy brought by the giant sun will gradually fade in the next month, the temperature will drop, the precipitation will decrease, and the vegetation will be dormant... In those bushes and garden nurseries The "small world" in between will soon usher in its own demise, and lose all vitality in the following severe winter-until the early summer of the next year, everything will repeat itself.

Gao Wen stood in front of the window for a long time, imagining what kind of changes were taking place in the small kingdom built by the insects and ants, and imagining that if there was a wise man who could think among them, he would be lucky enough to learn about the sunshine, seasons , precipitation, and the "doomsday", how will this wise man among insects and ants view the world they live in, and how will he try to save the fate of his own group, or... face the challenges of this season calmly Change, bow your head and accept the end of this midsummer?

Obviously, there will be no answer to this question, so Gawain just sighed softly in the end—this universe is in midsummer, but the mortal civilization, which claims to be a high-level intelligent creature, is facing a more severe fate than insects and ants. The midsummer of this universe will never end, and the "end" that will replace it is not a cold winter, but a "tide" that is far faster and more irresistible than the cold winter. Insects and ants may hide in caves and rely on hibernation to wait for spring, but Behind the midsummer in this universe is the ubiquitous magic power, and the magic power is everywhere, so naturally there will be no safe "caves".

The only way to survive may be to stop being a "bug".

A familiar breath suddenly emerged from the air, and Amber's figure gradually became clear under the sunlight. She quickly jumped to the ground and looked up at Gao Wen: "Are you standing in a daze again?"

Gao Wen finally woke up from his contemplation. He withdrew his gaze from the window and glanced at Amber: "Are you running off to be lazy again?"

"Do you think I'm someone who is usually lazy!?" Amber's eyes widened when she heard this, and she put her hands on her hips and said confidently, "I just came back from the government affairs office.

By the way, a message - the ambassador of Tarrond has crossed the identification line on the north side, and will soon land in the imperial capital. The landing field by the White Water River has been prepared, and Hetty has also passed by with the officials in charge of reception. . The person who came here is also an acquaintance, why don't you take him here to entertain him later? "

"This is really a serious matter." Gawain glanced at Amber in surprise, then nodded, "I see, let Betty arrange this matter - she is already quite skilled in this area."

"Okay," Amber waved her hand casually, and then couldn't help but look at Gao Wen more, "But then again, what were you thinking just now? With a serious expression, it seems that you are going to take the old man on the Crushed Stone Ridge back then." It's like helping the nobles to fight again..."

"What kind of bloody metaphor are you talking about?" Gao Wen was dumbfounded by Amber's wonderful metaphor, so that most of the serious emotions that had been brewing for a long time since just now dissipated most of it. He shook his head with a smile, "Indeed It's nothing, it's just that I just discussed some things with Kamel, which made me suddenly feel that the world we live in... is really a place that doesn't care about people."

"The world? Don't talk about affection?" Amber was confused, couldn't help scratching her head, and quickly showed a vigilant look, "Why can't even I understand what you're talking about now?! "

The last bit of seriousness in Gao Wen's heart was finally dissipated by this escaping shadow attack goose. The corner of his eye twitched, and he squinted at Amber who was standing next to him: "...you said it as if you could understand it correctly before. It’s like what I said——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————To find out where Betty is.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Po's figure gradually faded in the air, leaving only a voice from the empty corridor: "You don't need to say..."

Gawain smiled and shook his head looking at the direction where Amber's figure disappeared, then thought for a while, turned and walked towards the hatching room.

As soon as he walked near the incubator, an unexpected figure came into his sight - in the corridor not far ahead, a silver-white metal ball was floating in the air and flying towards this side, with that eye-catching funny smile This scene has a very visual impact, and judging from the position where the other party appeared just now, the iron ball star should have just left the hatching room.

"Ahh—it's Your Majesty!" The silver-white metal ball not far away also happened to see Gawain appearing at the corner of the corridor, and he immediately accelerated to fly over. You are so nice, why are you here?"

Gao Wen walked halfway and was about to say hello, but when he heard this, his feet swayed and he almost lost his footing. After the other party floated in front of him, he spread his hands with a strange expression: "This is my house."

"...It seems to be the same," Nicholas Dan stood still in the air for a moment, and said a little embarrassedly, "Sorry, I have been debugging the system that Ms. Enya uses to surf the Internet, and I was a little dizzy..."

"I saw you coming out from the direction of the incubator," Gao Wen nodded, and then he was a little curious, "What's going on? Is there a problem with Enya's networking?"

His tone is a bit serious - because this matter is not as simple as "letting a retired person go online to entertain himself", behind it is a whole complex and bold experimental project, to verify the mapping relationship between gods and thoughts Whether it is controllable, in order to verify whether the "chaotic area" at the bottom of the neural network can be transformed into an effective anti-theistic protection, the most advanced technologies of the empire so far are hidden in the customized version of the networking device used by Enya. There are several experimental teams working in three shifts around the clock to monitor this system - any failures in it will directly tug at Gao Wen's nerves.

It is also for this reason that when there is a problem with this system, the "master craftsman" Nicholas Egg will be required to take action in person.

"Don't worry, it's not a big problem." Of course Nicholas also knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately shook his body up and down and said, "It's just that the load on the analog brainwave converter was too high and burned, which made it impossible to locate the nerve cord—change it to another one." Accessories are fine, and there is no leakage of mental pollution or reverse osmosis."

"The load on the analog brainwave converter is too heavy?" Gao Wen was relieved to hear that there was no serious problem, but he still couldn't help frowning—after all, this is also a small hidden danger, " Why did it suddenly burn out? The power of that thing should not be great, and Naritel has personally tested it, and the divine power cannot pass through the protective wall..."

"The continuous boot time is too long," said Nicholas, shaking his body from side to side before Gao Wen finished speaking, "I think you should have reminded her not to hang on to the Internet 24 hours a day—the machine is too. Need to rest, especially a machine that still needs to withstand the spiritual impact of the gods. I checked it just now, and the set of connecting equipment has not stopped since it was installed..."

Gao Wen: "..."

After being stunned for two seconds, he said with a strange expression: "So Enya is always online no matter what she does, and has never been offline?"

"Sure, why not burn it?" Nicholas said helplessly, and then sighed in a very humane voice, "Oh, don't talk about it, I will go to the disobedient fortress later, over there Two sets of equipment were also burned."

Gao Wen: "...?"

So these retired gods have been soaking in the neural network for nearly half a month without knowing it? ! Even the equipment used to surf the Internet is burned out? ! Can't these three usually do something else? !

But no matter how galloping in his heart, Gao Wen could only show a helpless smile on his face, he shook his head with a smile, and tried to keep his tone as calm as possible: "Well, I can understand their usual boredom and... …the novelty of finally being able to get so close to the mortal world. Don't worry, I'll remind them later."

"That's good," Nicholas said shaking the ball, "I hope these powerful 'gods' can restrain themselves a bit, after all, the equipment given to them is specially made with special craftsmanship, and even the most basic parts are expensive—I I don't want to face Ms. Hetty's expression of killing a ball after the financial settlement of this quarter."

While talking, he turned and floated to the side: "Okay, if you have no other arrangements, I have to continue working, and there are two sets of burnt nerve connection devices waiting for me to repair."

Gawain nodded, watching the gleaming silver metal ball drift towards the other end of the corridor, but suddenly, a weird idea emerged from his mind, and he couldn't even tell whether this idea was bold or whimsical—he was Driven by this thought, he called out to Boss Dan: "Nicholas, wait a minute."

"Ah?" The metal ball stopped in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Gao Wen opened his mouth, still feeling that his thoughts were too weird, but he had no choice but to say, "You should be dealing with Enya often these days, right?"

"Indeed," Nicholas floated up and down, "Ms. Enya's equipment is newly installed, and I installed it myself, so naturally a lot of debugging work is indispensable. Do you have any questions?"

Gao Wen: "I'm just curious, what's your... impression of Enya?"

At this moment, he almost exhausted all his strength to keep his expression normal. While speaking, he kept emphasizing in his heart: These two are both round, these two are both round, anyway, it’s not wrong to ask , being idle is also idle...

But Nicholas didn't know why Gao Wen made such a remark. He thought about it seriously, and then slowly said: "Ms. Enya... is a woman worthy of appreciation. She has profound knowledge and impeccable manners, and treats everyone with respect. Very gentle, from temperament to self-cultivation, I think she tends to be perfect..."

Gao Wenwen just asked casually, but at this moment he couldn't help but slowly opened his eyes wide: "So you think she..."

"It's a pity, it's just a pity." Before Gao Wen finished speaking, Nicholas Eggy sighed and continued the second half of the sentence, "It's not round enough."

Gao Wen: "...not round enough?"

"Yeah, it's a pity that she's not round enough," Nicholas said in a serious tone, "Of course, I'm not a ball that pays too much attention to appearance—especially after falling into this world, all I see are grotesques like you. Biological, so I don't pay attention to the appearance of others, but Ms. Enya...is still too round. Ah, I shouldn't judge a lady behind her back, but...but..."

Nicholas was stunned several times, but at last he sighed together: "Oh, what a pity, one is big and the other is small..."

Gao Wen: "..."

There was an awkward silence in the corridor for a short time, only the tireless chirping of insects in midsummer passed through an open window nearby, echoing wantonly in the corridor, and the bright sunlight slanted into the room through the window, shining On Nicholas Eggman's clear and shiny shell, there was a bright luster.

It's almost like showing off your roundness.

"Your Majesty, is there any other question?" Nicholas finally felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and broke the silence.

"No, it's okay." Gao Wen suddenly felt that his behavior just now was a bit stupid, and he waved his hands weakly, "Go and do your own business."

"Okay, then I'm floating..."

...

The door of the incubator was pushed open, and Gao Wen stepped into the most special "guest room" in the entire building.

At this moment, it was approaching the afternoon, and the sunlight was shining through the window on the pedestal in the center of the room. The pale golden giant egg stood there quietly as always, with delicate and mysterious runes floating on its surface, wandering like a dream. The ventilation equipment in the room is running slowly, and the surface of the nerve connection device installed next to the giant egg is flickering with regular lights. Several containers filled with liquid are flying up and down around the golden giant egg, constantly reconciling the other Inside the dark solution, another newspaper was floating in front of the dome, and it was turning to a page discussing the "scale of the universe".

Now that Gao Wen knew, the retired Dragon God could completely do all these things without delaying her access to the Internet.

"Gao Wen, welcome," before Gao Wen could speak, a gentle and slightly cheerful voice came from the golden dome, "The weather is fine today."

Gao Wen looked at Enya, opened his mouth, but suddenly realized that he didn't know what to say. Originally, he had brewed countless words and serious questions after he left from Kamel, but by the time he got here, the emotions that had been brewed had been exhausted——now looking at the former god in front of him, the thoughts in his mind There is even only one sentence left:

You were rejected by an iron ball just now, do you know that? Because you have one big head and one small end...
