Chapter 1352 Lost Contact
In Cecil City, a series of information from the commanders of the expeditionary forces on various fronts was sent to Amber immediately, and after sorting out, it was sent to Gao Wen.
"...It is now confirmed that the abnormal electric discharge phenomenon in the atmosphere and the large-scale 'aurora' occur irregularly across the entire continent," Amber stood by Gawain's desk, the sun shining on her face from the side On the sky, those amber eyes showed a rare seriousness today, "The distribution is random, and the time of occurrence is also random, but they are all concentrated in the past twelve hours. The first to discover the abnormal celestial phenomenon is the Ogule Tribal State Afterwards, abnormal aurora and electric discharges also appeared in the northern border of the empire, the Holy Dragon Principality, Typhon, the Gaoling Kingdom, and even Tarrond across the ocean..."
Gao Wen frowned, and while flipping through the documents in his hand quickly, he asked, "What do the scholars think about this?"
"The Magic Research Institute believes that this is a large-scale magic 'resonance' phenomenon. A powerful magic field suddenly entered the atmosphere and reacted violently with the high-altitude clouds and magnetic field," Amber stated the conclusions of the experts in a serious manner— ——Although she didn’t have a few words to understand, “Considering the randomness of visions and the delay in time, they believe that there should be more than one source of magic power that triggers resonance, but the magic power distributed everywhere The source leaks and resonates successively.
"In addition, considering the scale of the anomaly, especially considering that anomalous phenomena have also been observed over Tarrond, they believe that this is definitely a planetary-level event..."
"...a planetary-level event may be behind a planetary-level magical power circulation system." Gawain raised his eyes and looked at Amber with an unusually serious expression. Activating the arrangement in the dark blue webway, this may be just a test - but it will be hard to say next time."
"The northern and eastern routes are speeding up the construction progress of the 'blocking wall'. At present, the Aberration Corps seems to have not reacted. The silver and Gaoling coalition forces on the southern route have also established a firm foothold near the wreckage of the Temple of Stars. They will Activate the first purification device today," Amber said quickly, "On the western front, Duke Baldwin has readjusted his deployment, and a large number of reinforcements from the hinterland of Ogure and from the direction of the Dwarf Kingdom are currently arranged In the mountainous scorched earth area, the main force of the Imperial Expeditionary Force on the ground and part of the Gorgon Fortress have begun to move towards the wasteland in advance, which should put enough pressure on the aberrations on the western front... Then, they will also start the first stage barrier wall project."
"...In the current situation, what we can do is to seize the time. No matter how many plots are behind the sentries, we must win the frontal battlefield," Gao Wen said in a deep voice, and then asked again, "The current domestic order and the guidance of public opinion You must pay more attention to this aspect. As the war continues, maintaining the pressure of the wartime system on the people for a long time may cause emotional changes. Even if we maintain the normal production and life of the people, the shadow of the war will really hang over On everyone's head — you know better than anyone else."
"Don't worry about that, I've never slacked off on this," Amber nodded immediately and said, "In addition to regular propaganda and guidance and maintaining stability, Film is also preparing to shoot a batch to defend the border of civilization." , and a phantom drama with the theme of regaining the homeland of Gondor, I have already started to follow up on this matter, and I think the effect should be very good."
"Well... I know this project, it's very good," Gao Wen nodded, "It just happens to connect with the series of official propaganda work we were doing at the beginning of the war, and..."
Just as he was halfway through his words, a rush of buzzing sound suddenly came from the magic net terminal on the table next to him, interrupting the conversation between him and Amber, and the two people in the study looked at each other subconsciously. , and then Gao Wen raised his hand to activate the beeping terminal, and with a stream of light flickering over the focusing crystal, Heidi's holographic projection clearly appeared in front of him—with an undisguised nervousness and solemnity on his face.
Hetty was a steady person. Although she had the wonderful act of drawing black circles under her eyes, she rarely showed such behavior, so Gawain immediately realized that a major event had happened: "What's the situation? Why do you have such an expression?"
"Ancestor, the communication between us and the imperial navy led by Byron has been interrupted," Hetty said quickly, and Gawain was shocked when he opened his mouth. "There is no response to all channel calls!"
"What did you say!?" Gawain's eyes widened, "Byron lost contact? A whole fleet? All gone?!"
"Yes, the last contact was an hour ago. The Winter sent a message using the enhanced channel, saying that they encountered an abnormal storm, and the communication might be disturbed, and then the communication was completely interrupted," Hetty immediately began to report what she had just done. According to the detailed situation, "The location at that time was in the southwest coast of the mainland, near the mouth of the San River Aldo, but the monitoring devices on the nearby shore showed that the entire fleet was moving away from the land..."
"Far from land?" Gawain frowned, "And there was a storm in the offshore area... Have you tried the temporary air communication network? When and where was the last sighting report from land?"
"All communication channels have been tried, including the west coast communication link set up by the Imperial Fleet along the coastline, the newly established air communication link, and several magic network communication lines that have just been restored in the territory of the Ogure tribal country. It can be confirmed that it is not a mainland communication channel. The last sighting report was this morning when an engineering ship of the Imperial Fleet rushed to repair the Alliance communication station on the local coastline in the northern part of the Aldo estuary. Since then, no one has seen those warships approaching land or entering Holy River."
Gawain fell into deep thought, while Hetty couldn't help but look worried: "Ancestor, will Byron..."
"There is no need to be so pessimistic. The Winter and its main fleet are the most cutting-edge magical warships, with powerful armor and a shield system specially designed to deal with disasters at sea, and there are also wave-controlling charms provided by the Kraken and the Sons of the Storm." Several previous tests have confirmed that those warships will be safe and sound even if they encounter disorderly turbulence in the open sea - from the information you just mentioned, they moved away from the land during the last communication, and even It's like yawing in disorderly turbulence..." Gawain said slowly while frowning and thinking, "Considering the special nature of disorderly turbulence, once you encounter that thing, whether it's in the near sea or in the far sea, even if the magician Battleships will inevitably deviate from the course, but..."
He paused, and his expression became more serious: "It's just that Byron's fleet has Kraken and Naga as navigators. Even if there is a problem with the ship's navigation equipment, those navigators will not lose their way." right……"
As soon as he finished speaking, Amber next to him showed a thoughtful expression: "Not necessarily, you see, there is still a sea monster living here who got lost on land because he swam backwards when returning home... ..."
"Theoretically, it shouldn't be," Gawain said seriously. "I asked Tire before, and she said that she is the only one who throws fish like her in Antaveen..."
Then he shook his head, temporarily put the sea caterpillar behind his head, and looked up at Hetty in the communication interface: "Continue to call the Imperial Fleet from all channels; to the Dwarf Kingdom and The Silver Empire sent a letter, asking them to help monitor the situation on the west coast and the western offshore area, especially pay close attention to all floating objects on the sea; notify the Dawn of the World, and ask Gina Prince to send an aerial reconnaissance force to the west coast to assist in the search ..."
Speaking of this, he paused, as if he was thinking and hesitating, and finally looked at Amber: "Go and call Tyre over—if you fall asleep, drag him here."
"Okay!" Amber immediately agreed, and disappeared in front of Gawain in a stream of black smoke the next second, while Hetty on the communication interface next to him bowed slightly to Gawain, and said calmly: "Then I will to arrange a call and search."
"Go." Gawain nodded and waved his hands. He let out a breath after Hetty's figure disappeared from the communication interface. Calming down the unease that inevitably appeared in his heart, he leaned back slightly on the back of the chair and let himself Enter a state of mental focus and "uplifting." With the familiar sense of soul stripping and the feeling of increasing perspective coming together, his mind quickly got rid of the shackles of the current body, and successfully connected to the satellite monitoring system in space in a short time.
The old blurred satellite surveillance camera began to zoom and adjust. In Gawain's mind, the bird's-eye view of Loren Continent gradually emerged from the darkness. To the southwest of Loren Continent.
The estuary of the holy river "Aldo" finally entered his line of sight, along with a small piece of surrounding sea area. In theory, he should be able to see that not-so-small fleet—even this old The satellites are no longer very useful, but the ships led by Byron are not small sampans. Against the background of the relatively clear ocean, the Cold Winter and the main battleships it leads should be clearly identifiable.
Especially at this moment, the weather in the southwest of the mainland is not bad. The storm passing by the offshore area seems to have ended, and the view from the satellite's bird's-eye view is quite good.
However, Gawain didn't see anything—theoretically, the imperial fleet that should sail in the southwestern part of the mainland and was about to enter the holy river Aldo to support the southern battlefield disappeared, and there was no trace even in the nearby sea area. residual.
"... Even if you deviate from the course, it is impossible to run away in such a short time... Even if you fly, you can't fly so fast." Gao Wen couldn't help muttering in his heart, while manipulating the satellite's perspective to search the offshore area Constantly switching between various sensing views, he quit the satellite connection until he suddenly sensed an aura approaching in the real world, and brought his main consciousness back to reality.
Gawain opened his eyes, just in time to see the door of the study being pushed open from the outside, and the first thing that caught his eye was a large ball of snakes—Tier was wrapping himself perfectly with his tail. The snake ball fell asleep soundly inside, with only its head and shoulders exposed, and there was no sign of waking up after being pushed through the door all the way.
After the snake ball came to a complete stop, Hu Po's figure came out from behind again. The Shame of the Alliance wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and reported to Gao Wen while panting: "I'm exhausted...I want to put She dragged it, but she was balled up, and I had to push her all the way from the room to here—you wake her up yourself, I went to rest..."
As soon as the words fell, the half-elf had rushed to the nearby resting sofa with black smoke, and then lay there motionless, leaving Gawain staring at the scene dumbfounded, not knowing what to say for a while.
Fortunately, this is not the first time this has happened. Gao Wen is quite familiar with dealing with it. He reacted quickly, then opened the side drawer casually, and took out a bottle marked "Very poisonous, dangerous, do not open" from inside. Brown-black liquid, unscrewed the cap, walked over and put the bottle mouth in front of Tyre's nose: "Wake up, I'll pour it down for you if I don't wake up."
Till sniffled in her sleep, and after a short delay of two seconds, the sea caterpillar woke up with a "ah", and the whole snake ball shrank and bounced instantly, and then she began to untie herself in a hurry While looking at Gao Wen with a sullen expression, "Is there anyone like you! You can't think of ways to wake up people? Ms. Egg's old wine can be taken out at will - can't you pour me some boiling water?"
"As long as boiling water is useful, I wouldn't put a bottle of it in the study," Gawain said casually while screwing back the cap on the bottle of brown-black liquid that had started to smoke purple, "I have something to do with you—— I need you to contact your people."
"Contact your compatriots?" Tyr blinked, as if he had just come to his senses, "Didn't you try it many times before? The entire Loren continent was shielded by the energy field, and the psionic singing and racial resonance among us sea monsters There is no way to penetrate this barrier. Could it be that you have already broken the barrier?"
"I'm not asking you to contact Antaveen, but I'm asking you to contact Cassandra—the navigator lady next to Byron," Gawain explained, "Try to see if you can sense her location."
"Cassandra? Byron's fleet?" Tyre was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "Is something wrong? You can't contact the fleet?"
"Byron's fleet is missing, the communication is interrupted, and there is no trace in the offshore sea. The last location shows that they are moving away from the mainland," Gawain did not hide, "Now we can only hope for the racial induction among you siren, although The communication between Loren Continent and Antaveen has been cut off, but in the 'interference zone', you can always sense Cassandra and the others, right?"
"This...well, I'll try," Tyre nodded, "As long as they are not too far away from the mainland, I can sense them in the near sea area or even in some far sea areas."
After finishing speaking, the siren lady closed her eyes—but this time she was not for sleeping in, but began to hum softly in a deep and gentle voice, a song that humans could not understand, sweet, human The difficult voice began to echo in the study room, and in the melody of this ballad, there was a "vibration" beyond the perception of most races that spread out from this space and floated into the distance on invisible ripples...
When contacting Antaveen, Tire needed to use a device like the magic net hub tower to amplify his "song", because the distance in the middle was too far, and he had to cross the ocean full of powerful interference, but this time The target she wants to contact is not that far away, so she doesn't use additional assistance.
Gawain waited patiently until Tyre's voice gradually entered a frequency that was completely inaudible to human ears. It was not until a long time passed that the siren lady slowly opened her eyes.
... To be honest, Gao Wen suspected that this guy had slept again, but he had no evidence.
"How's the situation?" Gawain asked as soon as Tyre opened his eyes.
"...I can't hear Cassandra's response," Tyr blinked, with a look of astonishment on his face, "She is no longer in Loren, not even near the Loren continent..."
