Chapter 48 Satellite Warning

Gao Wen paid close attention to the picture that only he could see, and finally confirmed that what it showed was indeed the terrain within a hundred kilometers around the current Cecil pioneered land, and he was familiar with it. The operation of adjusting the viewing angle has been disabled.

The picture is confined within this range, neither moving nor zooming.

And the original high-definition satellite view has also become this blurry and covered with strange color blocks.

What do those colors mean? Thermal Imaging? Or some other sensory imaging?

Or... a simple glitch?

Gawain also clearly remembered the sound he heard when he was out of the high-altitude viewing angle. He clearly heard words such as energy failure, host restart failure, and escape program, so the possibility of failure was extremely high. , coupled with the current state of being unable to adjust the perspective, further deepened his speculation in this regard.

And he began to extend his thinking: his soul, or spiritual body, may have mutated. Although he came to the ground and obtained a human body, his spirit obviously still retains the establishment of a "thing" in the sky. The ability to connect, he has been offline for the past few months, but the unexpected crystal strengthens and re-establishes that connection. As for the ancient device in the sky - whether it is a satellite or a space station - it is still in a faulty state, but it is not known whether the energy system is returning to light or the mainframe has been successfully restarted. It has survived and is even still running, although The surveillance footage has become an indescribable mass, but this at least proves that it still exists.

And in this extended line of thought, Gawain had to start worrying about another thing: if the connection between his spirit and the "satellite" in the sky is beyond imagination, there will even be a connection similar to symbiosis and death... So once that thing in the sky is really finished, wouldn't it be extremely fatal?

He knew that this possibility was not high. After all, he had already completed his rebirth based on Gawain Cecil's body, and he had heard the words "escape procedure" clearly, so his spirit should have been Independent, but in this kind of issue involving life and death, no small hidden danger can be let go!

But the thing in the sky is very likely to hang in the synchronous orbit of this planet, and now he himself is trapped in a ignorant and backward medieval kingdom, let alone repairing that "satellite", he can't even see it now !

In such tumultuous thoughts, Gawain was still observing all the details of the top view. He noticed that the image was not static. In fact, the hazy color patches were always changing slightly, and some areas would be brighter. , and other areas will gradually darken, cyclically, and seem to be regular, but at the same time as the changes, the overall distribution and contours remain roughly unchanged.

But just when Gao Wen tried to summarize the laws of image changes, things changed again.

He suddenly saw a box like a floating window appearing above the image, and a line of text that flickered and seemed to be disturbed popped out of the box. It was a character he didn't recognize at all—neither Chinese, nor The text of any kingdom and race on the continent of Loren.

But when he looked at the line of words in shock and seriousness, the meaning of those words was directly translated and appeared in his mind:

"New data, the activity of giant planets has increased, and the alert level has been increased to four."

The screen began to shake, and layers of interference patterns appeared on those color blocks. Gao Wen woke up in horror, and his attention quickly shifted to the real world outside. This was the first time that such a vision switch made the scene in front of him shake. It took him a while to stabilize, and then, regardless of the dizziness that still remained in his mind, he suddenly got up from the desk and rushed towards the door of the tent.

Amber, who had been invisible for a long time beside him, was taken aback,

Suddenly jumped out of shadow form: "Wow!"

Gawain had rushed outside the tent at this moment, and the two militiamen standing guard at the door looked back at him in astonishment. He didn't have time to pay attention, but raised his head to look at the sun that was hanging high in the middle of the sky.

The giant sun was moving slowly and majestically in the sky, and there was a halo like a mist around the sun wheel, which was not dazzling. It seemed that everything was normal, but soon, the surface of the sun was covered with wisps of red. It gradually emerged like bloodshot on the eyeball.

The picture in Gao Wen's mind continued. He saw the color blocks surging in the top view like a thermal image. Almost all the colors were rapidly deepening, but gradually entered a new stable state, and some seemed to be numerical values. Things appear from time to time at the edge of the picture, but I can't see it at all.

In an instant, he realized: these colors are probably not malfunctions, but some kind of special monitoring mode.

Perhaps a much more useful monitoring mode than a direct overhead view!

More and more red lines appeared on the sun (some of the lines have now turned into plaques), and finally caught the attention of the people working in the camp. They raised their heads and discussed the changes of the sun with gestures. Until the overseer yelled at them back to work.

Heidi, who was using the mud-turning technique to help reinforce the foundation not far away, also noticed these changes. She looked up at the sun, and then turned to the tent in the center of the camp—as expected, she saw the man who was looking at the sun with a serious face. Gawain.

She quickly ran to Gawain: "Ancestor, it looks like it's a red spot again."

Gawain waved his hand and motioned Heidi to stay silent. His eyes were looking at the sun, but his attention was focused on the pictures in the conscious world.

After a period of time, the red part of the sun's surface finally stopped growing, and the text above the "monitoring image" in my mind changed first, and a new line of prompts popped up: "New data, the giant planet has recovered. Calm down, all alerts lifted."

The red lines on the surface of the sun quickly faded after that, and the floating colors on the surveillance image gradually calmed down and returned to their original appearance.

But even though the surveillance images lifted the alert, the alert in Gao Wen's heart was difficult to lift.

A large number of new discoveries became new clues, and a large number of clues poured out all at once and piled up together, becoming new problems.

He generated countless conjectures and inferences, some of which were even bold enough to be crazy, but he forcibly suppressed them, first regaining his composure, and then looking for an explanation that was most likely to come close to the truth.

"Ancestor...Are you okay?" Heidi looked at Gawain's face worriedly, "Your face is very bad..."

Amber had slipped out of the tent just now, but the aura around Gawain was so oppressive that this noisy and jumping half-elf never dared to say a word. At this time Hetty broke the silence, and she dared to speak: " He dashed out before there were red spots on the sun, startling me..."

"Hetty, can you feel the change in magic power?" Gawain suddenly turned his head and looked at Hetty seriously.

"There was a surge of magic power just now, and casting spells has become much easier," Heidi nodded. The surge of magic power is a normal phenomenon when red spots appear on the surface of the sun-in fact, even red spots on the surface of the sun are normal, but The frequency of red spots and magic surges has indeed been higher recently, and the disaster of Cecil Land and Gawain's previous warnings are still vivid in her mind, she couldn't help but get nervous, "Do you want to do it again? …”

Heidi's face gradually paled.

"No, it hasn't reached the point where monsters will appear," Gawain shook his head to calm Hetty. He made this judgment because on the one hand, he could not see any signs of contamination by the magic tide from the top view, on the other hand, it came from Gawain. ·Cecile's experience, the elemental power in the air is still stable, then there will be no problem, "It's just a normal level of red spots and magic upwelling..."

"The surge of magic power and red spots are normal phenomena, but usually only once in three or five years," Heidi looked worried, "but this is the second time in a few months..."

In fact, the worry and tension in Gawain's heart were not much weaker than Heidi's.

Even, because he has to worry more about the connection between himself and a "monitoring satellite" high in the sky, he feels even more nervous at the moment.

But at the same time, he is also very clear that he has now become the pillar of the entire Cecil territory, especially in front of Heidi and Rebecca, all weak and shaken states cannot be shown.

What's more, weakness and wavering can't solve the problem at all.

"Don't worry, there won't be monsters, and I have experience even if the tide of magic really comes," Gao Wen comforted his descendants, "Let everyone do their jobs - only by building a solid and stable home, we Only have the capital to fight against nature.”

Heidi looked at Gao Wen's confident eyes, and couldn't help but calm down. She bent slightly and went back to her work.

Looking at Heidi who was using magical power to help the construction project, Gawain nodded slightly.

Perhaps Heidi and Rebecca could not surmount the era and class they were born in in terms of many ideas and insights, but they had a foundation that no other nobles of this era possessed.

That is, they do not think that they can be separated from the people because of their status.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a standard noble lady like Hetty to go to the construction site and use magic to assist the construction.

Watching the land rapidly harden into a foundation under the influence of magic power, Gawain sighed at the convenience of magic, but also realized one thing: after the hardware facilities required for coinage are in place, he will hire some desolate wild mages. It might be a good idea to help build the camp.

But before that, there are more important issues to consider.

Gawain returned to the camp, sat back at the desk, and wrote three questions on a blank piece of paper:

What is the relationship between the "sun" in the sky and the magic tide on the ground?

What is the possible role and status of "monitoring satellites"?

Why did Gawain Cecil 700 years ago leave behind a crystal that would help him reconnect with the satellites?
