Chapter 1280 Recycling Golems
Deep in the dim and chaotic courtyard of disobedience, a faint glow floats on the ground made of broken boulders. A huge oak tree that grew out of nowhere stands in the center of the courtyard, surrounded by a large number of operating magic devices. Some of this oak tree projected ever-changing holographic images, and some emitted light, interweaving into a grid barrier with a complex structure.
Mirmina, the Goddess of Magic, sat under the oak tree with her eyes closed and meditated. Some of the pale golden leaves falling from the crown of the tree fell on her long hair, and then turned into shattered light and gradually dissipated.
Suddenly, the former Goddess of Magic opened her eyes, and a strange look appeared on her calm and peaceful face before.
The next moment, Amoen's voice came from the side: "What? Are you dreaming?"
"...No, I didn't sleep just now," Mirmina raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, muttering in a strange tone, "It's just that I suddenly felt flustered for some reason... It woke me up from my meditation."
"Panic? Waking up from meditation? This doesn't sound like a good omen." Amon, who was taking care of the oak tree at the side, suddenly became a little nervous, with a very human worried look on his face. "Could it be your divinity?" Part of 'what's left...'
"It's not that serious, just a little flustered, as if the black history from a long time ago was suddenly seen by someone," Miermina waved her hand, not knowing why she suddenly thought of such a strange statement, but soon She put this little detail aside, and focused on Amoen, who has been busy for the past two days, "By the way, you haven't finished your work yet?"
"It's still early, this is just the beginning," Amoen shook his head, and the light green runes hovering on the antlers dissipated in the air little by little, "Finally, I have a chance to move freely. Decorating my own yard, I have lived in a place for three thousand years, and I don’t know how long I will live in the future... At least I have to plant a few trees or something. What do you think of my oak tree? Should it be taller? ?”
"It's pretty good—unless you don't plan to plant anything else," Mirmina looked up at the beautiful golden oak tree, the only "plant" in the disobedient courtyard at the moment emitting a faint halo, The majestic vitality is stimulated around it, making the whole courtyard linger with a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. This is the first time that this dark and lonely place has been so alive in thousands of years——Mirmina said to Amorn's "landscaping project" is not really interesting, but she is very happy to see the fun that Armorn has after his body heals and is truly free, which is better than spending all day playing poker on the Internet," said You are really motivated, planting trees in the Shadow Realm, what do you mean by that sentence... Oh, Film can't even think of such an outrageous thing."
"I didn't lie among the barren rubble for three thousand years because I liked it," Amon said in a rather cheerful tone.
"By the way, do you need help? I see that you have been resting among these boulders and ruins these days. Although I am used to it, you should be more comfortable with the environment covered by tiles——I can help Can you make a residence, such as a magic tower that can grow? Gawain and his friends will definitely not have any objections to this. They said before that the courtyard can be modified as I like, as long as it does not affect the magic guides. The equipment works just fine."
"No, I think this is fine! Don't mention anything about the magic tower anymore!" Mirmina's eyes widened for a moment, and she said loudly as if in a stress reaction, but then she realized that this reaction seemed a little bit Excessive, with a resentful look on his face, "If I want to get a place to live, I can do it myself. Don't forget that 'shaping' itself is an important branch of the magic field, and I am better at this than you."
"Okay, okay, I'll just say it casually, why are you shouting so loudly?" Amoen shook his head, and then couldn't help but look up and down at Mirmina, "Speaking of which conclusion you just meditated on Is it? In the past two days, it seems that you have been doing all kinds of weird magic experiments, meditating under the tree, or writing reports... You are really the same as those busy researchers in the council, what are you doing?"
"I told you that you don't understand." Mirmina didn't have the slightest interest in explaining to Amoen. She waved her hands and stood up and said, "Anyway, my thesis is almost finished. If you are really interested, you can start from there by yourself when the time comes." It can be seen in the database of neural networks."
Amoen snorted softly, but he was not interested in arguing with the goddess of magic on this topic. His attention returned to his "small courtyard beautification project". Gradually formed in his mind - around the magnificent golden oak tree, the vitality field had already formed, and there was also an environment for plants to grow in the Shadow Realm. He felt that he should plant another flower field around him, or bushes full of berries... …
Or plant some cucumbers, eggplants, onions, ginger, and garlic.
...
The boulder with the "message" gradually drifted away, and disappeared again in the darkness among the false starry sky. The towering tower stood in the center of the Kingdom of God, like a silent guard, guarding the land that had been ruled by its owner. All the secrets of the kingdom I gave up myself.
"...I think it's best for us to pretend that we haven't seen anything," Amber looked around and murmured, shrinking her neck, "the 'person' wouldn't be happy if he found out..."
Gao Wen thinks what Amber said is very reasonable, and think about it in his own shoes. For Milmina, the content on that stone should be as lethal as the youthful sadness literature written in Space Shuo Shuo when she was young and frivolous. Go back If I mention it to her face to face later, I'm afraid someone's blood will be splashed on the spot...
There was another vibration from the ancient spaceship sailing in the dark and chaotic, and the engine output gradually increased. The giant ship returned to the depths of darkness again. As those strange dark silhouettes reappeared outside the shield, Gao Wen and his party realized that , the ship set sail again.
Just like the speculation conclusion in the previous intelligence, this ship cruised between the kingdoms of the gods, and it continued to visit one kingdom after another during the next voyage, stopping briefly each time, at a distance of more or less Hover to observe for a while, and then set off for the next target - for Gao Wen and others, this is undoubtedly extremely precious observation data.
Mortals have never had such an opportunity to directly observe the situation inside the Kingdom of God in such an intuitive way, and in the process, they don’t have to worry about being mentally polluted—the tragic price paid on the battlefield of Winterhold in the past, is still in sight. Surprising returns in unexpected directions.
Of course, not every observation of the Kingdom of God will be as clear and clear as the previous "Kingdom of Abundance" or "Kingdom of Magic". Sometimes Gao Wen and others will see some strange and incomprehensible situations. In some "spaces" completely shrouded in light, the internal conditions are completely blocked by light curtains that cannot be penetrated by the naked eye, and sometimes a lot of chaotic superimposed lights and shadows can be seen. The methods present an overlapping posture, and it is unknown whether this chaotic "deep sea" has interfered with everyone's cognition, or whether an ancient kingdom of God really has such a strange appearance.
There was even one time when the spaceship stopped abruptly in the darkness, turned on the lights and detection equipment and scanned the void for a long time—as if there was an invisible kingdom of God in that empty place.
All these weird situations were carefully recorded by Kamel and Modil—maybe one day in the future, all the mysteries can be revealed.
And these "observation points" that appeared constantly during the "journey" also greatly slowed down the actions of Gao Wen and others on the spacecraft. They stopped again and again to record the various scenes they saw outside the shield of the spacecraft. A large amount of video and text data, and even the exploration of the spacecraft itself gave way to these observations.
But even with some delay, they finally arrived at the entrance of the passage leading to the interior of the spaceship - a gate made of unknown alloy stood at the end of the deck, the gate was open, and the bright lights inside it showed the The basic system is still running.
"The 'Explorer' is inside," Kamel floated in front of the entrance of the passage, nodding while sensing the magic fluctuations from not far away, "I can receive the positioning signal from it, which is clear and stable , the environment inside is very stable.”
"Let's go in," Gawain looked up at the dark "deep sea" outside the shield of the spaceship for the last time. This voyage is not over yet, and there should be new Kingdoms of God appearing outside the spaceship, but he has to find a way It is only necessary to understand the secrets of the spaceship itself, "Victoria, set up a picture crystal here to record the situation outside the shield, and we will recover it later."
Victoria immediately began to set up the photo crystal and the corresponding maintenance circle according to the order, and Amber said casually: "Anyway, this ship will run around every two days. Once we figure it out, we can arrange for the exploration team to take this ship regularly for long-term observations after we go back—the Kingdom of God can’t escape, and the data will be recorded after a few rounds of observations.”
"...I hope everything will be as simple and smooth as you said." Gawain glanced at Amber and said with a serious expression, "I always have some bad premonitions."
"Then you must not say it." Melita on the side suddenly said nervously.
Looking at Miss Blue Dragon who was facing a formidable enemy, Gawain had a subtle expression on his face. He could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, and followed Kamel into the passage leading to the interior of the spaceship.
Behind the gate is a spacious corridor, and bright lights illuminate this place that may have been silent for 1.8 million years—just like the situation in the Tower Against the Tide, the years have also failed to corrode the creation of the voyager , there is no so-called dust and dust in the "deep sea". A group of people passed through the clean and bright connecting passage in the spaceship. Everything they entered gave them a strong illusion... as if this place had just been abandoned For a long time, even just a moment ago, there were still busy fleet members moving back and forth in this channel.
After walking not far in the passage, they finally found the "Explorer" puppet that had been sent to this ship a few days ago and had been acting in self-discipline for a long time.
"That's it." Kamel raised his hand and pointed not far away.
Gawain raised his head and saw a magic self-discipline device made of brass with a chubby shell quietly hiding in a corner at the end of the corridor. It put away all its joints and working limbs, Using a piece of equipment at the corner of the corridor as cover, it is in a state of deep sleep.
He looked weak, pitiful, and helpless.
Considering the astonishing level of technology represented by the Voyager spacecraft itself, the brass puppet with a simple mind and a fragile mechanical structure in front of him does seem a bit "poor".
But looking at the dormant brass golem, Gao Wen suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart - he even felt that this mechanical device, which was not even half the level of the Iron Man of Gondor, was like a hero.
So backward and so fragile, this simple mechanical device almost represents the pinnacle of technology in today's Loren kingdoms, but it may not even be considered a toy in front of the technical creations of the voyagers—but that's it A "gadget" that can only think simply, has been acting alone on this mysterious spaceship for several days, walking through the dark deck, passing through the ancient corridors, and exploring countless mysteries.
Perhaps it should be called "Mechanical Herald"?
Gao Wen's thinking was a little distracted and he was thinking wildly. At the same time, Kamel had released the activation command, and there was a slight click and sizzle sound from the brass doll's belly, and the round thing suddenly turned into a It shook for a while, and then several mechanical joints slowly stretched out.
It seems to have had a long dream, stretching its "lazy waist" like a human being, opening its folded limbs a little bit, and the sensing device that was originally folded also popped out of the spherical shell. , the sophisticated crystal lens captured Kamel's figure.
A mechanical claw used to pick up objects was raised and waved happily-it was very happy that it successfully completed its task and was retrieved.
"...The people of Typhon really learned a lot from the technology of the Iron Man of Gondor." Looking at the very humanized performance of the brass golem, Victoria couldn't help but sigh.
"I have indeed learned a lot, but it is far from enough," Daniel said blankly on the side, "We have been using it for so many years, but we still can't copy the core of Iron Man's mind, nor can we create the bionic structure like a living person. , our golem experts are still waiting for the next technological breakthrough—or a big stroke of luck.”
"Sometimes technological breakthroughs do require a little bit of luck," Gao Wen said casually with a smile, and then turned his gaze to Kamel, "Now let's check the data recorded by the puppet and see what it has seen along the way. .”
The last time the "Iron Land" was close to the Kingdom of God of War, the explorer puppet had sent some of the data it collected to the technical team working in the stronghold of the Kingdom of God through remote transmission, but due to the short stay of the spaceship And the limitations of remote transmission, it can only send back a small part of the data, and many images are blurred.
The complete exploration data still needs to be recovered in the most primitive way.
Kamel opened the shell of the explorer puppet, and found a device storing key data from the intricate rune core and guide structure inside. He carefully took out the device and put it in his hand.
It was a palm-sized cube. Most of the outer shell was made of expensive mithril and fine gold, and the surface was inlaid with high-quality crystals and gems. Its interior was more complex and immersed in alchemy solution. storage organization.
It has obvious traces of the fusion of traditional magic skills and modern magic techniques.
