Chapter 1424 The Dragon Ambassador's Holiday (Not)
The Earthly Dawn majesticly and majestically crossed the sky slowly, casting shadows that made one block after another seem to fall into night, and then, the street lights and landscape lights that were lit up according to the preset program followed the movement of the Sky Fortress like moving stars. Move and advance slowly, until the city is brightly lit in the night, and countless beams of light rise from the top of the building, illuminating the armor and anti-gravity engines of the flying fortress base.
All the consternation and tension turned into great pride and joy. Nothing can make the citizens of Cecil feel the strength and glory of being one with themselves more than this moment—the previous expedition was hasty and secretive, so this It was the first time that the Dawn of the World officially appeared in front of the citizens, and the appearance of this sky fortress brought the atmosphere of Victory Day to its peak.
Amazement and cheers suddenly burst like thunder. Pea took Patty's hand and shouted excitedly on the streets of the celebration day. On the top of another tall building not far from them, Melita Penny Ya was watching the sky quietly——she saw the underlying structure of the Dawn of the World moving slowly above her head, so close that she could touch it with her hand. She looked at the alloy skeleton and shields kilometer by kilometer The array is neatly arranged, and the shimmering particles released by the anti-gravity engine are slowly falling from the sky. The flickering runes are like stars in the night. This perspective is enough to bring a sense of oppression that is almost suffocating. However, for the giant dragon, this is just a spectacular scene scenery.
Slowly, the Dawn of the World flew over the main urban area, and the majestic shadow of the ship gradually began to increase in height, rising towards the high-altitude clouds, and the sun once again shone on the earth. The "artificial dusk" quickly faded, and the lights in the neighborhood also went out. Only the rest of the crowd, who were still restless, still gathered on the main road and the square. Countless people were excitedly discussing the miraculous fortress in the air just now, discussing the power of the empire, or discussing the upcoming great development.
Today's Victory Day celebrations are far from over.
Melita withdrew her gaze from the Dawn of the World, lowered her head and pressed the heads of the two young dragons following her, the two little ones immediately screamed cheerfully, while flapping their wings vigorously, they stretched their necks to see Looking at the direction of the sky fortress, it is obvious that the huge flying city is really an exciting thing for the newly born baby dragon.
Noretta's voice came from the side: "Looking at it from this angle, it is really shocking-I think I can understand how excited the humans in this city are at the moment, and I am also excited."
"Really?" Melita laughed happily, chatting with her friends while dealing with the two baby dragons that kept coming towards her, "I just said to occupy a favorable terrain, this victory day will definitely have a big impact." There are few good things to watch——Gowin Cecil never disappoints people when he engages in such big scenes, especially after this special war is over, he needs a strong enough 'signal' to completely eliminate There's residual tension in people's hearts, fueling public momentum."
"I can feel it—if the people in this city still have some uneasiness about the 'things left over from the past' like sentinels,
There was some tension left over unknown dangers in this world, so now that tension is gone, now they believe that a mighty empire is capable of withstanding all crises, whether it's cultists plotting to overthrow the world or the ancients out of control' Evil spirit'," Noretta smiled and shook her head, casually picked up a large skewer of meat from the shelf next to it, opened her mouth and sprayed out a small stream of fire to roast carefully, and handed it to her friend after roasting, " Here you go. "
"Thank you," Melita took it unceremoniously, first pulled two pieces of barbecue and fed it to the young dragon beside him, and then put it in her mouth, "The main reason is that this war is too scary, whether it is crawling Disasters or sentinels, or the "reverse tide" that came out at the end, these are things that will leave great panic even if they die, and it is impossible for the official to cover up all the news, people will always know that there is such a thing beyond common sense in this world crisis, and there is no telling when another crisis will appear, so they need a "Victory Day" all the more, and need a strong signal to convince them that they are being protected by reliable forces...
"Under this premise, the appearance of the Dawn of the World has another significance, which is to make the people believe that this power comes from their own hands-a sky fortress that can be built by manpower is better than any uncontrollable factors.
"Similar celebrations are being held in other countries, they may not have the Dawn of Earth, but they will find other ways to achieve similar effects: inspirational, to dispel the fear of war, to stimulate a sense of solidarity among the people, to revive the economy and The warm-up of the "third pioneering", and most importantly, take this opportunity to further weaken the influence of the concept of "God" on society - if even this kind of doomsday crisis can be resolved by human beings, then the "save of all things" There is no need for gods to exist... Oh, your barbecue skills have improved a lot! I remember that you used to burn your barbecue directly into charcoal..."
"I learned from the two dragonborns who sold barbecue in Dongcheng District," Noretta said proudly while sprinkling spices on the remaining skewers, "I found myself He's quite talented in this area!"
"It's so comfortable~~" Melita sat on the skewers contentedly, and after eating the meat on the stick, she chewed the stick as well, and swallowed it a few times, and then casually picked up the frost potion next to her. After a few big mouthfuls, he hiccupped and looked towards the street not far away, "Looking for such a place to spend the whole day during the festival, eating barbecue and drinking potions, blowing the cool breeze and looking at the scenery, I'm afraid there will be no such place in the world. Is there anything more pleasant than this..."
"It's really good to relax like this once in a while." Noretta also smiled, and while muttering, she carefully roasted the marinated meat in her hand with dragon's breath—but at this moment, a slight rattling sound came suddenly In the ears of the two dragon diplomats.
Melita looked in the direction of the sound in an instant, and in the next second, she saw the door to the roof of the building being pushed open, and two sheriffs who were panting heavily ran out from inside— —These two sheriffs who obviously climbed all the way up the stairs saw the shelves in front of Melita and Noretta and the piles of fresh meat on the ground beside them, and one of the older ones immediately stared: "Pick up the crowd Report, someone is grilling with an open fire on the roof, it must be you two!"
The two baby dragons behind Melita were taken aback, and immediately started yelling "gaooga". She reacted in a second and pointed at the pile of raw meat beside Noretta: "Where did you see us barbecue? We don't even have a fire!"
The two sheriffs were also a little dazed when they saw two baby dragons at the scene. It was probably the first time in their careers to catch two female dragons with baby dragons while on duty. The younger one obviously A little unable to react, after being bluffed for a while, he subconsciously looked around and found that there was no sign of a fire: "Then what are you doing..."
"It's also against the law to put sauce on raw meat?" Melita said confidently.
The two security officers with limited work experience looked at each other: "..."
However, at this moment, Noretta, who had been silent beside her, suddenly hiccupped, and a ray of flame jumped out from the corner of Miss Yinlong's mouth, turning into sparks and floating in the air.
The two security officers who had accumulated new work experience smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
"Sorry," Noretta glanced at Melita with apology, "I drank too much just now and couldn't hold back..."
...
"So that's why the two Tarrond ambassadors were caught by the urban management for having an open-air barbecue on the roof of the building on the day of the Victory Day celebration?"
In the study on the upper floor of the Cecil Palace, Gawain, who had hurried back after the Victory Day celebrations, was sitting behind the desk, looking at Melita Purnia standing in front of him with a particularly strange expression, Feel something throbbing in the forehead.
At the same time, he couldn't help but have a particularly weird association in his mind: this is the first month that the Kraken joined the alliance. In theory, the spiritual pollution of the deep-sea gods wouldn't spread so quickly, right?
Of course, Melita didn't know what was going on in Gao Wen's head, she just asked curiously: "What is urban management?"
"Don't worry, don't worry." Before Gao Wen could speak, Amber, who was standing by the table, waved his hand, "Occasionally, he would pop up such strange words, which are often not very related to existing things—— If you are interested in this aspect, I can recommend this book to you later..."
"No one will treat you as dumb if you don't speak." Gao Wen glared at the shame of all things, and then turned his eyes to the dragon ambassador in front of him, and couldn't help sighing, "Hey, I remember when we first met you That's not the case, why are they all starting to work..."
"Actually, this is just a small accident. Everyone wants to relax sometimes, and there will always be unexpected situations..." Melita said with embarrassment on her face, "And I heard that St. When the ambassador of the Dragon Principality came to Cecil for the first time, he was also posted a note by the sheriff because he violated the parking lot..."
"Can you be the same as others? When Azarena came here for the first time, she didn't even know where Ting Ji Ping was. How many years have you lived here?" Gao Wen glanced at Miss Lan Long, but he obviously I didn't intend to talk to the other party about this episode for too long, so I quickly changed the subject, "Let's not talk about this, I came to you because I have something serious to talk about."
As soon as she heard "business", Melita's originally sloppy expression instantly became serious: "Please tell me."
At this moment, it seemed that the calm and elegant Mithril Treasury agent had returned to Gao Wen again—it was a pity that he had just heard about the "Dragon Clan Ambassador being arrested by the urban management for having an open-air barbecue", so Gao Wen might have a hard time in a short time. Then match the image of the senior agent in my mind with Miss Lanlong in front of me.
"It's a matter of technology. We now have a plan to reconstruct the communication channel between Tarrond and the Loren continent, as well as rebuild the communication network of the Tarrond continent," Gawain tapped his finger on the armrest of the seat, " Specifically, wait for Rebecca to come over..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the study, and then the rather heavy oak door was pushed open with a "bang", and Rebecca ran away in a reckless figure. Come in: "I'm coming, I'm coming! My ancestor, I'm coming!"
Hearing the sound of the silly roe deer opening the door, Gao Wen once suspected that the door was knocked open by the iron-headed girl just now...
"It's just in time," Gao Wen shook off the weird associations in his mind, and looked up at his N+1 great-granddaughter, "Come and tell Melita about your plan."
"Oh, oh okay," Rebecca saw Melita in the room at this time, and quickly closed the door while saying hello to Miss Blue Dragon, "Good afternoon, Miss Melita—have dinner Is it gone?"
"...just came out of the Public Security Management Office because of a meal," Melita's mouth trembled, but she still maintained a decent posture in response to Rebecca's greeting - this strange way of greeting is obviously from her Learning from the ancestors who raised the coffin, Gawain and the people around Gawain like to greet people like this, "I heard that you now have a plan to build a communication channel between Tarrond and Loren?"
There is a vast sea between the continent of Tarrond and the continent of Loren. When the dragon civilization was prosperous, the high-power planetary communication system on the continent of Tarrond allowed the dragons to communicate with each other in any corner of the planet. The mainland, however, with the departure of Omega and the complete destruction of Tarrond's infrastructure, the sea that once looked like a "water puddle" in the eyes of the dragon has now become a real obstacle, and the old communication system collapsed However, the magic net communication device currently used by humans is difficult to send signals across the distant sea, which directly leads to the embarrassing situation where communication between Tallond and the Loren continent is difficult.
At this point, the giant dragon that has already joined the alliance is even more embarrassing than the Kraken who has just "joined" - although the Kraken's spaceship is also full of failures, it relies on Antavien's conventional antenna and the Kraken's natural ability. "Psychic echo", they can still contact the mothership in the sea from any corner of the planet, so that Antavien, which is extremely far away from the Loren continent, communicates with the alliance countries much closer than the Tarrond is convenient.
Not to mention that Tarrond itself has a rather complicated situation - more than half of the continent is still in ruins, and the complex energy environment has cut off communication in many areas of Tarrond. Although with the assistance of the alliance, The giant dragons have successfully restored communications in several main coastal cities and several major coastlines, but the situation in the hinterland of the mainland has not improved much.
Under this terrible situation, the dragons even had to return to the embarrassing situation of long-distance communication and relying on messengers. The communication delay between Tallond and the alliance countries even reached a day or two - this is because the dragons are flying fast enough... …
Rebuilding the local communication network in Tarrond and restoring the communication between Tarrond and Loren is a problem that must be solved. Gawain has been working hard to promote this matter before the outbreak of the Wasteland War, and he also has the technology The personnel conceived several plans, but the sudden outbreak of the wasteland war disrupted all rhythms, forcing this matter to be put on hold until today.
"Actually, the impact of this war on the 'Communications Reconstruction Project' is not all bad," Rebecca said with a "bang" on the table, wiping the sweat from her brow, "although The previous plan was disrupted, but we had the opportunity to verify some new ideas and new technologies in the war, and finally found a way out that might be better than those conceived before the war..."
While speaking, she pulled out a document from the heavy documents and placed it in front of Gao Wen and Melita.
"For example, our experience in building an air communication network in the Ogure Tribal Country seems to be very suitable for solving the complicated situation in Tarrond...Miss Melita, do you want to rent a few Gorgon signal base stations?"
