Chapter 1276 "Phantom Entity"

The turbid and hazy sky shrouded the huge dead city. There was no sun or stars in the sky, but there was a layer of evenly yellow sky light. ", and in this empty and deserted place, a group of new visitors are being welcomed at this moment.

Amber's eyes widened, and she watched the movement around her nervously. After confirming that nothing would suddenly jump out and beat her up, she relaxed slightly, and then her gaze swept across the high walls and palaces in the distance. Silhouette, muttering thoughtfully: "This place looks very different from the surroundings of Lady Ye's throne... I thought the Kingdom of God of War was also an open and empty place."

"Of course different kingdoms of God will not be the same," Gao Wen glanced at Amber, and said casually, "What they present is what the believers sketched out based on the myths and stories, and different churches will do their best to portray a different world from others. 'Scenery of heaven' - in a sense, this is also an important means for them to attract their respective followers."

"Then I definitely like the Three Gods of Plenty or the God of Commerce," Amber said with a bright smile on her face, "It is said that beer and honey are flowing everywhere in the garden of the Three Gods of Plenty, and the trees are full of different flowers. The fresh fruit that will rot, the long table in the middle of the garden is full of delicacies that can feed countless people, the kingdom of the god of commerce is full of money, everyone builds houses with gold and precious stones..."

Modil, who was looking at the surrounding scenery curiously, couldn't help turning his head to look at the "Imperial Intelligence Minister" when he heard this: "If the world is full of gold, isn't gold as worthless as stones... "

"The issue of gold depreciation is for the god of commerce to figure out for himself." Amber waved her hand nonchalantly, fully expressing her attitude in the realm of gods, "I just like things that are shiny and shiny, can't it?"

Gawain couldn't help sighing when he heard this: "If I didn't know your details, sometimes I really suspect that you were raised by a giant dragon..."

Melita and Noretta rolled their eyes at the same time, but Amber's thinking has continued to expand. The shame of the alliance, which has always had a wonderful logic, did not know what to do in his head, and suddenly seemed to find As if entering a new world, he said excitedly: "I seem to have thought of an idea... You see, we can now come to the kingdom of God of War without being polluted, so you say that if our technology in the field of gods continues to develop, Will one day be able to freely enter and exit the domains of other gods without engaging in a battle of gods? At that time, we can go directly to the kingdom of the god of commerce to rob money, or go to the three gods of abundance..."

As soon as this remark came out, not to mention Gawain, Mordir and others, even the white knights who were meticulously performing their missions fell into a strange state of shock and silence. The two dragons, Melita and Noretta, looked at each other. But the more Amber thought about it, the more excited she became: "It's more than that! If we successfully control the laws of the thoughts, we can even use the thoughts to create something, and then go to the corresponding kingdom of God to steal... I mean take..."

Gawain stared dumbfounded at Amber who suddenly lost her mind,

It took two seconds to react: "Good guy, why did you leave this card bug?"

"What does bug mean?" Amber asked blankly, and Windsor Mapel, who had been listening beside her for a long time, suddenly shook her head after a long time of serious thinking: "Unfortunately, Miss Amber, the bug you described This kind of situation... I am afraid it will be difficult to realize."

"Huh?" Amber blinked, looking at this legendary magician from the Typhon Empire in surprise.

"According to our research on the Kingdom of God, in this space supported by the 'trend of thought', everything does not 'stable existence'," Windsor Mapel explained very seriously, "As you can see now These high walls and the swords adorning the palace are solid entities here, but after we brought some samples out to the real world, they all deteriorated and dissipated in a short period of time, and even their properties Strange changes are taking place. Steel will turn into loose and fragile sand, stones will evaporate and disappear in the air, and the curtain will gradually become transparent and disintegrated... Except for the 'remains' of the God of War itself, almost everything is leaving the Kingdom of God The environment will not be stable for long after that.

"We suspect that this is related to the fall of the God of War itself, and the deeper reason... should be due to the termination of the God of War thought. Now the belief in the God of War is shrinking all over the world, and even due to the gradual disclosure of the truth behind the battle of the God of War Many originally pious believers began to doubt their own beliefs, and this change is obviously also reflected in the "ideology product" like the Kingdom of God.

"Therefore, Master Kamel and my mentor and I also gave a name to those things in the Kingdom of God that cannot survive stably in the real world. We call them 'Phantom Entities'.

"To sum up, Miss Amber's idea is based on the fact that things in the Kingdom of God can survive stably, and this requires the mortal world to maintain a stable trend of belief, which runs counter to what we are doing now..."

The president of the Typhoon Mage Association explained the special properties of the "fantasy entity" in God's country with an extremely rigorous attitude, and analyzed the ideas that came out of Amber's imagination - she is probably the only one so far who can run away with Amber's mouth. The idea that the train popped out was really a scholar, which made Amber feel awkward immediately, the latter scratched his head and glanced at Gao Wen: "I feel a little embarrassed..."

After hearing this, Windsor looked at Gao Wen seriously: "It seems that my answer has caused trouble to Miss Amber?"

"Uh...no, don't worry about it," Gao Wen waved his hand immediately, "Your answer is very meaningful to me, we need these professional explanations about the mysteries of the Kingdom of God..."

He can't say that his intelligence minister is a joke in front of foreign scholars. Under normal circumstances, Cecil's scholars won't pay attention to this guy's idea at all...

But then again, even though Amber did come up with a bad idea just now, the explanation of Windsor Mapel's "Phantom Entity" of the Kingdom of God that she elicited from it still had a little touch in Gawain's mind. With this ancient and magnificent temple and city in front of him, Gao Wen couldn't help but have some doubts - it is true that the "utopia" without the support of thoughts will collapse in reality, but in this area called "deep sea", these What's the reason that the entity without support can survive for a long time? What is the reason why the remains of the gods can last longer than the kingdom of God?

In this "deep sea", the boundary between matter and thought seems to be extremely blurred. The things that people can see and touch here are actually "information" that is "illusioned" by a large number of mortal minds... For some reason, While thinking of this, Gawain couldn't help thinking of the "discovery" mentioned in the report by the goddess of magic, Mirmina——

At the bottom of the world, both matter and magic have similar properties, and entities and non-entities are not clearly distinguished...but blurred transitions.

Gawain shook his head, and put these uncontrolled thoughts aside for the time being—although he could come up with countless conjectures, but at this time, the conjectures were only conjectures and were of no practical use. He still remembered that he came to The purpose here at the beginning.

"Take us to the 'border'." He looked at Kamel and said seriously.

Led by Kamel and Ms. Windsor, Gawain and his party passed through the quiet Cheers Trail and the arena area, passed through the empty and deserted palace and the outer city, and finally arrived at a place that was constantly disintegrating and dissipating. Signs of the "God's Kingdom Frontier".

The magnificent and vast sea of ​​sand and dust clouds caught everyone's eyes. The boundless undulating dust and mist and the dark and chaotic "extraterritorial space" in the distance made Amber couldn't help holding her breath, and in the depths of that sea of ​​clouds, an extremely large-scale Inside the large vortex, the unsettling space rift and the blue light flowing deep in the rift caught Gawain's attention.

The two young dragons following Melita and Noretta immediately became agitated, thumping and shouting in the direction of the vortex, looking excited and nervous.

Melita immediately bent down to comfort her two daughters. The gentleness from the mother made the two little ones calm down a little bit. Noretta raised her head and said worriedly while looking at the cracks in the dust vortex: " It seems correct... These cracks are the same thing as the cracks we found in the Tower Against the Tide... They are all cracks in the dark blue webway, and even... They may be the same 'vessel' at all, connected in the together."

Amber swallowed subconsciously, with a nervous expression on her face: "So the thing in that tower fled all the way along the gap, and then ran out from here... and now it's running into Ms. Ye's divine kingdom... ..."

"...the rift is located outside the God of War Kingdom—although it looks very close now, it is caused by the kingdom of War God's out-of-control 'floating'." Gao Wen was carefully observing the situation in the sea of ​​clouds in the distance, while observing Analysis, "We can't see the traces left by the reverse tide corrosion around the cracks... It may be that the special environment in the deep sea erased those traces, or it may be because the 'reverse tide' did not stay after leaving the cracks, and moved quickly. Location."

"Having been trapped by the Tower Against the Tide for so many years, even the 'Chaos God' who only has instincts, will definitely choose to stay away from this thing as soon as he has a chance to escape from the shackles," Melita pressed her hand on the two chicks. On the top of the dragon's head, he said casually while stroking the smooth scales of the little guys, "It's a pity that if there are no traces left here, then the clues will be broken... We are only capable of entering the Kingdom of God of War. I don't know anything about the mysteries, let alone where Ms. Ye's divine kingdom is..."

"The clue to this rift is broken, but the other thing is not certain," Gao Wen said in a deep voice, and slowly raised his head to look towards the end of the boundless sea of ​​clouds - this place should have been shrouded in darkness, but above the sea of ​​clouds there was a A bright ball of light is the "illumination technique" left by Mirmina. With the support of the power of the goddess of magic in the past, the ball of light may continue to illuminate this place for a long time, "Kamael, you guys The 'iron land' you mentioned appears periodically, right? How long does it take for it to appear?"

"It approaches the border of the Kingdom of God every two days on average - since we first explored here, it has appeared twice on time, and the pattern is very stable," Kamel replied immediately, with a buzzing voice, "Your today It’s just in time, today is the day it will appear again—but we’re afraid we’ll have to wait here for a while.”

Gao Wen nodded, and then asked: "I heard that you have already conducted a certain level of investigation on that piece of 'Steel Land'? How did you investigate? What was the result?"

"We were trying to find a way to send a self-discipline puppet up," Kamel nodded. "The puppet performed several hours of exploration missions inside the target, and then went into shutdown and dormancy, and restarted when the target approached the border of the Kingdom of God again. I sent back the data I collected——According to the data it collected, we confirmed that the piece of iron land 'dived' into a dark and chaotic space after leaving the realm of the kingdom of God. During its 'navigation' I have been close to some things floating in the dark space several times, but for some unknown reason, the puppet's recording device has never been able to capture a clear picture.

"However, one thing is certain, human beings can live and operate on that 'steel land', the golem has not detected any toxic or harmful substances or energy radiation, and the 'steel land' itself has an energy shield of unknown principle , it maintains a mild and safe environment inside. But considering the uncertainty of this mysterious thing, Ms. Windsor and I still recommend that we take adequate protection when exploring the target area—and carry enough supplies.”

"Where is that puppet now?" Amber asked curiously.

"It still remained in the depths of the 'Steel Land', and it went into a dormant state again after the last data return," Kamel said, "It's not to continue to save energy——after leaving the Kingdom of God of War, Afterwards, the puppet can be recharged from the environment, but its self-discipline is limited, and the structure deep in the 'steel earth' is becoming more and more complicated. The judgments that need to be made are beyond the puppet's own thinking ability. An accident occurred during the in-depth exploration, and a dormancy command was issued during the last communication."

"Do you still stay there..." Gawain nodded slightly, and at this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw ripples appearing in the dark and chaotic depths in the distance.

A hazy and chaotic beam of light spread out from the dark ripples, floating up little by little, and getting closer little by little.

It made him think of a "submarine" rising from the deep ocean, or... some kind of deep-water creature with a light organ.

The "iron land" mentioned by Kamel appeared, followed a certain strict timetable, crossed a long cruising journey that I didn't know how to calculate, and returned to the border of the kingdom of God, which was constantly disintegrating.

"Kammel, Victoria, and Amber and Modil, you and I will go to explore the situation together," Gao Wen said immediately, "Melita will take us there. The others will stay here first to meet the situation." Bar."

In the distance, the majestic steel giant has protruded a third of its structure from the border of darkness and chaos. The sand and dust on the border of the sea of ​​clouds was stirred by the steel land, setting off a spectacular vortex of dust and mist. The edge of the colossal monster flickered, outlining its outline structure that was wider than the city wall.

"Your Majesty Gawain, I hope to go with you," Windsor Mapel, who was asked to stay behind, couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "I hope you will allow me."

Gao Wen turned his head to look at the figures around him.

It seems that he really can't exclude the Typhon people from this operation—whether it's from the political sense, or from the perspective of academic cooperation, or from the contribution of all parties to the "Gate" project. The exploration of "Steel Land" should have the location of Typhon people.
