Chapter 596 Daniel's Self-Cultivation

In the eastern part of Ansu, deep in the deep underground palace, Bertila Augustus walked into a special room covered with various runes and mysterious symbols.

Compared with the spaciousness of the rest of the underground palace, this room can almost be described as narrow and cramped. There is no furniture in the bucket room, which is only two or three meters in length and width. There is only a magic spar lamp quietly inlaid in the middle of the roof. Under the brilliance of the magic spar lamp, you can see the runes on the walls, ground, and roof of the room, and the runes of the eternal sleepers.

Bertila came to the center of the room, waved her hand at will, and the soft sound of the door closing came from behind her, and the invisible magical barrier closed, completely isolating the entire room from the outside.

Then she quietly glanced around at the mysterious, complex and dazzling runes in the room, gently slowed her breath, and released her own magic power.

The runes in the room lighted up one by one, and began to change slightly and regularly, and at the hem of Bertila's priest's robe that erased all sacred symbols, the plant structure like vines and roots also stretched, Spreading, with the sound of rustling, the vines slowly merged with a circle of runes on the floor...

Bertila opened her eyes, and she saw a tall and strong middle-aged man in a black robe with a serious and calm face standing in front of her.

The black robe was different from the pure black burqa often worn by the believers in the death of all things. It had a more complex structure, with runes and symbolic silk threads on the surface. It was more like a fusion product of a magic robe and a priest's robe.

Bertila knew that the man in front of him was not really standing in front of him, it was just a phantom projected on his senses, and the serious and calm middle-aged face was not necessarily the real appearance of the other party, but more likely It's just a product of imagination. This is the best method of the Eternal Sleeper, and she has long been used to it.

"I hope there will be no more irrelevant interference in this communication," Bertila said indifferently, "Have you reached a conclusion about the situation we encountered last time?"

In her sight, the middle-aged man whose main body might be thousands of miles away nodded slightly: "It has been concluded that your communication has not been polluted or invaded."

Bertiera's brows raised slightly: "This conclusion doesn't make me feel at ease."

"Don't worry, there is a detailed interpretation," the serious-looking middle-aged man continued, with a sense of professional reliability in his tone, "Mind projection technology is a very high-level secret technique, and its principles are extremely reliable. , but as a new technology, it does have certain flaws - in the process of receiving projection, the user's mental impression will be magnified, and the activities in the field of consciousness will produce unexpected phenomena, and trained eternal sleepers can rely on Spells and willpower to counteract this effect,

But it is possible for people who have not learned the Secret Art of Eternal Sleep to create sounds and images that should not exist in the mind projection. "

Bertila frowned: "What do you mean, the 'invader' is just something I imagined?"

"It is true, but we don't mean to offend, just because it is true," the middle-aged man said calmly, "Ms. Bertiera, please recall whether there is a similar imagination or worry in your mind, even if it is a subconscious worry, in In the process of mental projection, those things that are deep in your heart will also emerge, please recall carefully - what you have seen is what you have imagined?"

Bertie ramen sinks like water.

She imagined the scene: Roland Augustus suddenly appeared in front of her, and her dearest and most admired brother asked herself angrily, he was disappointed by his choice, and even raised his sword...

She doesn't think that she will be troubled by similar "shadows" today, and she doesn't think that she has worried about similar scenes on weekdays.

But... what about the subconscious? The deepest part of the subconscious mind? Even if she has complete control over her deep thoughts, the individuals she has devoured in the past seven centuries... Have their souls and memories accidentally mixed with her own memory, and then there is a little hidden danger?

She began to calmly analyze, and the more calmly she analyzed, the more she believed that there was a certain probability.

Maybe in a dream that has been deleted by me, in a nightmare, I really dreamed that my brother was alive by his anger, and then he raised his sword and slashed people...

"Okay, I accept this statement," she finally exhaled lightly, and stared at the middle-aged man in front of her, "Then I want to confirm, will this phenomenon still occur in the future?"

The middle-aged man nodded meticulously: "I can't guarantee 100% that it won't appear, but if the user is mentally prepared in advance and gives himself enough psychological hints, the chance of 'extra phantom' appearing can be greatly reduced."

Seeing that Bertila Augustus still seemed to have a trace of doubt on his face, the middle-aged man straightened his back slightly, with a proud and unquestionable look on his face: "Ms. Bertila, you don't have to doubt— The Eternal Sleepers have always attached great importance to the interests of their allies. We analyzed the problems you encountered with the most professional attitude. What I just said was the conclusion of the top security director of the order, the master of the spiritual network, and Bishop Daniel personally researched and made the conclusion—— Any Eternal Sleeper will prove to you the wisdom and meticulousness of this master."

Bertila folded his arms on his chest: "I've heard of this name, and I have no more doubts."

"Then have a nice day."

The image and sound projected in consciousness disappeared, and Bertila immediately closed the magic circle in the room.

"Is it just a subconscious fantasy..."

The headmistress muttered to herself, and then a icy expression appeared on her face.

What the Eternal Sleeper said was probably true, and what she saw that night was probably just an apparition, but she still didn't want to be completely relieved.

From now on, if not necessary, she decided not to use the "mental projection" device.

...

In Aldenan, the capital of Typhon, in a private lounge of the Imperial Workers' Association, Daniel in a black robe woke up from his meditation and blinked slightly.

He received a message from the lower-level priest in the sect, and knew that the negotiation with "Bertier Augustus" had ended successfully.

The cautious and cunning Priestess may not believe it completely, but he will believe most of it. At least, the effect requested by the master can definitely be achieved.

The break is almost over, and meditating for too long during the day may invite unwanted prying eyes.

Daniel glanced at the mechanical clock hanging on the wall not far away, then stood up.

The artificial nerve cord wriggled slightly behind him, and then stayed in a position where it would not cause discomfort. The old mage felt that he was full of energy and was in a very good state.

The crazy noise and stinging pains had been gone for a long time, and the symptoms of headaches and auditory hallucinations were not showing signs of returning, even though they had rarely been paying attention to those "pleasure patterns" recently.

"Thank you for the gift of the master..."

Daniel muttered to himself almost habitually, and then left the lounge.

Along the way, the lower-level mages bowed their heads to salute him, the craftsmen with low identities took the initiative to avoid him, and the scholars and assistants bowed and saluted him.

But Daniel rarely responded to these greetings, he just walked quickly down the hallway, and finally came to a project laboratory he was currently following.

In the spacious and bright laboratory, dozens of craftsmen or wizards or assistants in short robes are busy everywhere, long tables full of scrolls, calculation tools, and writing materials are arranged around the room, and the large laboratory table in the center of the room. On the top, you can see that complex mechanical devices and magic devices are spread out, and they seem to be semi-finished products.

This is a completely different environment from the traditional wizard laboratory. It is more like a workshop of some kind of engineering and alchemy, rather than a place to study the mysteries of magic. In fact, even within the Imperial Workers Association, something like this The research site is also the only one.

——In other laboratories, it is rare to see the lowest-level craftsmen also participating in the research and development of magic devices. Although Emperor Rosetta set up such a facility for wise people to work together, the strict level The system, the division of the extraordinary, and the barrier of talent are still deeply rooted in everyone's heart. Only in the project led by Daniel himself, this kind of barrier was forcibly eliminated due to the strength of the old mage himself.

He imitated what he saw in the Origin Lab, imitating the "Magic Technician" system.

"Master Daniel," a craftsman who was busy beside the experimental bench noticed the arrival of the old mage, and immediately got up and saluted, "you are here."

Daniel nodded and looked at the mechanical parts on the test bench: "How's it going?"

The craftsman looked nervous, bent down and nodded again and again: "We are trying to find a way to realize the rotation of the two rear wheels. We don't have a clue yet, but it should be soon, soon..."

Daniel looked at the craftsman in front of him who clearly had excellent mechanical talent, but was habitually servile due to the influence of the environment, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

He just glanced at the semi-finished products on the experimental bench and nodded slightly: "Don't be impatient, rigor is more important."

Then he glanced around and saw that on a shelf not far away, several sketches were nailed to the edge of the wooden frame.

On those drawings, something is depicted that is still in the conceptual stage (at least here):

A vehicle that is driven by a repulsion mechanism, relies on mechanical devices to transmit power, and can travel without relying on animal traction.

When Daniel came to Aldenan on the orders of his master to show the rulers of the empire the skills of the leech, he brought with him other techniques.

These include simple power machines powered by repulsion runes.

The owner hopes to use these basic technologies to accelerate the "industrial upheaval" of Typhon, and these basic technologies have indeed achieved the expected results, but as they enter the attention of Typhon technical workers, the subsequent development will also become inevitable——

The principle of the repulsion mechanism is not complicated, and the simplest gears, levers, bearings and other things have long existed. When the craftsmen and mages of the Imperial Workers Association were opened up by the magical "repulsion mechanism", they naturally knew Thinking of using this thing in more fields.

Today, Typhon's self-produced magical energy engine has been used in mining machines, spinning machines, and looms. Merchants and nobles are lying on the machines and counting gold coins like water, while more far-sighted smart people are in The further development of the thinking machine - a palace consultant realized that the operation of the factory will inevitably have higher requirements on the transportation link. Under the suggestion of the palace consultant, Rosetta Augustus ordered the industrial association to develop a Fel-powered vehicle.

Daniel gladly took over this task. As a "very gifted genius mage" in the field of magic machinery, he established this engineering laboratory.

Then he stuck the project just right - this project has too many links to get stuck, differential, shifting, transmission, braking, cooling, damping... Daniel has seen the complete Magic car information, so he has the confidence to stick this project on for three or five years, and it will not arouse anyone's suspicion.

He was waiting for the master's next order, waiting for the order to "invent" or "copy" the magic car.

The master is already preparing to meet Rosetta Augustus, so the next order should be coming soon.
