Chapter 1230 Siren, Take Action
The original intention of repairing the FTL communication array was to restore contact with other immigrant ships that were lost that year.
However, even the sea monsters who are optimistic by nature, they clearly know how remote the chances of this matter are.
It's been too long... It's been too long since the fleet fled from the mother star and the immigrant ships lost contact. Even the immortal sea monsters can hardly resist such a long time, and the vast and dark universe will Many things have been swallowed up in these years.
Queen Pethia looked up at the antenna tower components that were slowly rotating at high altitude. She knew that these components had been silent for too long—the Krakens should have repaired these key systems earlier, but the rejection from the world rules made the sisters Too much time has been delayed on this weird planet. When everyone finally understands the world completely and perceives the ubiquitous "magic power"... the world has already changed.
But the siren still puts great enthusiasm into this matter, with great hope, they know how much time they have wasted, but they don't care-they are slow but tough creatures, they I have long been used to doing a simple thing for a long time, and everything is just like the motto believed by the sea monsters:
It's never too late to start.
Besides... Although the antenna system failed to receive the signals from other immigrant ships as everyone expected, it brought unexpected gains. The re-activated receiving unit heard the echoing voices among the stars. This universe is not It was as empty and desolate as everyone imagined at first-and the most special of those voices seemed to help the new allies of the sirens solve their problems.
The maid Rosalia came to Petya's side and looked at the direction of the communication antenna with her queen. At almost the same time, a low and gentle buzzing sound came from the central axis structure of the antenna array.
Petiya narrowed her eyes slightly, and she saw that the sensitive structures floating in mid-air were rapidly fine-tuning their respective orientations and orientations, while bright electric arcs jumped densely between the antenna towers and attachments, quickly weaving into a Several ring-shaped "intercepting force fields", through the open "windows" near the base of the tower, she can clearly see that many structures in this huge ancient system are lit up. The units were operating at full power, and began to listen to the sounds from distant space——
Just as expected, the signal from 6.12 light-years away visited the galaxy again.
Queen Perthia stood quietly on the high platform of the deck, watching the deep-water technicians and deep-sea witches busy there—whenever the signal came, it was also a good time to calibrate the key systems of the antenna. On a primitive and backward planet in every respect, a superluminal communication signal from afar is a very rare "reference line" for technicians.
Of course, the Krakens will also record the content of those signals by the way, and use the decoding method provided by Cecil's allies to translate them into recognizable image information--Petiya didn't wait too long, because the signal's The content has been repeated in a loop, so she quickly got this new round of monitoring reports.
"...Nothing has changed." Looking at the report chart submitted by Rosalia, the ruler of the deep sea shook his head with some disinterest, "straightforward and easy-to-understand geometric patterns, simple and basic mathematical operations, and who Strange text that I can't understand. This signal is just repeating the content."
"This may be a 'greeting' that has been broadcast continuously for hundreds of thousands of years. The witches of the deep sea even suspect that this thing is automatically and regularly issued by a machine," said the maid Rosalia, "They also said that maybe only when When there is a response from the starry sky, the master behind the signal will come to take a look at the situation."
"...The premise is that there is really a 'owner' behind the signal," Petya handed the report to Rosalia, and said casually, "If a timing signal has been automatically released for many years, then It's hard not to doubt whether the original sender of this signal is still alive, after all, after so many years of observation by us... most creatures in this world don't live as long as sea monsters, and the cycle of their civilization is the same."
Rosalia stretched out her tail, curled the tip of her tail around the report sheet handed over by the queen, and said at the same time: "Master Hathaway is still organizing people to decipher the text behind these signals, but the progress is slow, Siren There are no professionals who are good at writing and passwords. However, recently, a group of Naga heard about the situation here and volunteered to help. Maybe we can look forward to it..."
"Naga..." Petya's silver-white eyebrows slightly raised, and a smile appeared on his face, "This is to be expected, they used to be humans, and humans have always been more talented in the field of writing than sea monsters... In short, no matter what progress has been made in this regard, it is good to send it directly to Tyre. Our Cecil ally seems to be very concerned about this matter. There is a saying on the human side recently... This is a favor .Well, I like this sentence, it's rare that they can use 'water' to describe things so vividly."
The ruler of the deep sea spoke unhurriedly, while slowly winding towards the edge of Antaveen, she stretched her body on the edge of the deck, and her eyes fell on the direction of the sunny beach—the sun It has become brighter and brighter, and the brilliance brought by the huge sun makes the beach shine brightly at the end of the waves. Some sea monsters who have just finished their night shift have already found a comfortable position on the beach. They dug out a A bunker is laid out inside, waiting for the sun to get stronger and then turning it over to dry.
And farther away, the Naga built towns on the open land slightly closer to the inland area, and now they have begun to take shape. The roofs and gray-white walls are a landscape that this land has never had for millions of years, and there are tall towers standing in the center of the town. The clock dial is surrounded by those deep-sea elements in the center of the top of the tower. A wet stone road extends from the town to the coast. At the end of the stone road is a small port and a stone ramp that extends directly into the sea.
In addition to the "Trench City" on the seabed and the "Naga Block" in Antavien, nearly one-third of the former Sons of Storms now live in that town on land.
They are already the family members of the deep sea, and the moist sea breeze and the power of the tide infiltrate their flesh and soul, but the "remnants" that belong to human beings make them choose to continue living on land and build this new building with mixed styles. home.
Petiya once visited that new town, it was an interesting place, all the streets there seemed to be perpetually smelling of the sea, and the wet ground and walls seemed to blur the boundary between land and sea, Totems symbolizing deep-sea creatures and gloomy wave runes can be seen everywhere. The scaly deep-sea dependents live in houses with high ridges. During the day when the sun is strong, they seldom come out for activities, but when night falls, those The sound of scales rubbing against the ground can be heard on the streets soaked in the fishy smell of the sea, and scaly and snake-like creatures emerged from their hiding places one after another—running to the square in the center of the town to sell seafood barbecue and "deep-sea specials". drink".
There are often sea monsters who come to that town to play during their vacations, and spend the night in the night market run by the locals.
In Perthia's memory of millions of years, these things have never happened. The sea monsters who have maintained a low-key and closed life for a long time have never undergone such a big change because of "outsiders", but now this It's all happened, and...it seems that the tribe is enjoying these new changes.
"It might not be a bad thing to have some changes..." Queen Perthia murmured softly to herself while thinking.
Rosalia on the side asked curiously, "What did you say, Your Majesty?"
"It's nothing, just talking to myself." Petiya waved her hand, turned around and was about to leave this place. As the ruler of the deep sea, she still has a lot of things to do today—but at this moment, a The taller siren with long sky blue hair suddenly appeared in her line of sight, which made her stop.
"General Vanessa," Petya nodded slightly to the blue-haired siren who came in front of her, "what happened?"
"Your Majesty, I just received a call from Tire," the blue-haired siren known as General Vanessa bowed her head in front of Petiya and said meticulously, "The matter is urgent."
"Tier sent a contact at this time? She can stay awake at this time?" Petya was a little surprised at first, and then nodded, "Tell me, what's the situation."
"Our allies hope that we can help them monitor some... phenomena in the elemental field," Vanessa said while recalling the content of the contact, "They seem to have discovered some disturbing phenomena... There is a through The energy system of the entire planet is called the 'Dark Blue Webway', and various abnormalities are appearing in this energy system..."
She relayed the news sent by Tire to her queen in detail, emphasizing the part about the dark blue webway. Petia listened carefully, her expression becoming serious little by little.
"Deep Blue Webway... I have heard of similar concepts. It seems that there was a season of civilization that studied this thing in the past, but at that time we could not perceive or understand what 'magic power' was. The Deep Blue Webway is to the Kraken. It's an 'abnormal' thing that can't be seen or touched, but exists," said the ruler of the deep sea thoughtfully after Vanessa relayed it, "The situation is different now..."
"It sounds like this matter is very serious," Rosalia looked at her queen, "Your wish is..."
"This matter is indeed serious, and I would like to believe the judgment of those human allies—they are more professional than us about the magic system of this planet, and they have no reason to lie to us about this matter," Petit said. Ya looked serious, "If something goes wrong with this 'power giant' that runs through the entire planet, then we won't be safe either."
"So..." Vanessa looked at Petya with searching eyes, "Should we...send a scouting team to the water elemental domain? Or should we just set up an outpost there or something... "
"I'm afraid we can't just send a temporary reconnaissance team for such an important matter." Petiya shook his head and said after thinking about it, "We need to establish a long-term outpost, and we need to open a stable element on Antavien's side." aisle."
This master of the deep sea is actually a vigorous and decisive person, and he has to implement many things immediately after making a decision. However, Vanessa and Rosalia couldn't help but look at each other after hearing the Queen's decision, each showing a little bit embarrassed Rosalia couldn't help but said first: "Your Majesty, do we need to confirm the situation with the human side? By the way, we should also make more preparations here, such as talking with the lords of the water element field." Say hello, make arrangements in advance, etc... After all, we didn't get along very well with them before, even though everyone has signed an agreement to live in peace, but... things are still a little sensitive."
"...That's right." Petiya frowned slightly, feeling that her maid was very reasonable. "The fight with them before signing the agreement was quite fierce. At this time, I sent someone to build the sentry without saying hello." It seems a little impolite to stand up... At the beginning of the fight, we were wronged first, so we have to pay more attention at this time."
Having said that, she paused, and looked up at her most trusted maid and most trusted military officer: "Do you have any suggestions?"
"It happened suddenly, and we don't have much time to negotiate slowly with the elemental lords," Vanessa said while thinking, "It's best to express your intention quickly and try your best to reduce the possibility of friction."
"How about...bring some souvenirs?" Rosalia thought for a while, "Anyway, it's always right to be polite, at least this time you can't make mistakes first."
"I think it's feasible," Petiya immediately expressed his approval. "Elemental lords also have to be reasonable. Usually, even if a reckless human mage summons them, as long as they prepare enough sacrifices, they will not turn their faces..."
As she spoke, she began to think quickly, thinking about what kind of "local products" could quickly calm down the elemental lords who had a tense relationship with the sea monster, and soon she had an inspiration, A confident smile appeared on the face of the master of the deep sea.
"Vanessa, you go prepare the element jumper, we will open a passage to the water element field; Rosalia, you arrange a group of skilled excavation teams to go to the seabed, and pick the big ones..."
Rosalia quickly understood the Queen's intentions, but her expression was a little uncertain: "Your Majesty, is this okay..."
"I think it's ok," Petya nodded confidently, "the biggest specialty of Antavien is that thing - let's get one with the best taste and bring it to the elemental lords to taste. Ah, I personally Send it over, it seems more sincere..."
While speaking, she waved her hands to the two subordinates in front of her, turned around and left the place on her own, leaving only the Maid of the Deep Sea and the Siren General staring at each other.
After a long time, Rosalia finally couldn't bear it and said, "General Vanessa...do you think this is feasible?"
"...Your Majesty says it's feasible, so it's feasible," Vanessa spread her hands, "Anyway, I can't think of a better idea."
