Chapter 865 Another Starting Point

Good things don't always happen in this world - a lot of the time, there may be more bad things, but as long as the sun still rises tomorrow, you might as well look forward to the future.

Under the majestic canopy of the Thorin giant tree, a wind mixed with the smell of damp earth was blowing.

In the canopy, which was like a giant castle, countless branches and leaves rubbed and shook, making a tidal wave-like sound. The birds and beasts perched on the trees and the surrounding bushes were a little alarmed and ran out of their hiding places. , Margarita stepped on the hardened path, left the hut, and walked forward slowly.

She looked up and looked forward. In the wonderful vision formed by the huge tree canopy and the vast land, the sky turned into a stretched bright curtain, and a giant sun was slowly moving on the edge of the curtain.

The young female knight narrowed her eyes, and some kind of low and depressed mood lingered in her heart. She really wanted to share this heavy feeling with herself at this moment-but in the end, she could only re-face and let her He returned to his usual calm and serious state.

Then, a few shadows suddenly emerged from the far end of the horizontally elongated sky. The shadows were against the sun, like a few tiny gems dotted on the crown of the giant sun, but soon they were flying in the direction of Solimburg. Approaching, in the brilliance of the great sun, the outlines of those shadows became more apparent.

Several sentry towers in the Sorin area began to emit light signals, and the messenger on duty at the communication station appeared in Margarita's line of sight. The soldier ran towards her quickly, but before it approached, Margarita was already Guess what-

Your Majesty is finally here.

The female knight did not immerse herself in a depressed atmosphere. The knight's training and the quality of a professional soldier made her adjust her state in an instant, and soon came to a high ground on the edge of the canopy coverage area - this is the airport take-off and landing platform , is a new facility in the Military District for taking off and landing Imperial flying machines.

Although the Construction Corps is not a front-line force, the reconstruction project of the Holy Spirit Plain has the same priority as the front-line project. Under the circumstance that the Empire's "dragon cavalry" and other types of aircraft are in serious shortage, the construction of airport facilities has been approved here. , and a small "dragon cavalry" force has been stationed for a long time in case of emergency. Soldiers here are no strangers to flying machines.

The rapidly approaching shadow on the horizon finally reached the sky over the Sorin area. The originally vague and small shadow showed a clear outline in the sky. Margarita and the soldiers looked up at the sky, after seeing the appearance of one of the shadows. , a low exclamation and obviously heavier breathing suddenly came from all around.

There is a black dragon flying in the leading position of the entire formation! That's not the flying machine that soldiers are familiar with!

At first, some people thought it was an illusion caused by backlight,

Thought it was just a newer, larger flying machine. After all, the Dragoon's propulsion wings were very similar to dragon wings, but soon everyone realized that it was really a dragon—she was bigger than any other. A dragoon should be huge, with cast-metal scales and powerful minions. She wears a set of steel armor, which glows with a cold light in the sun, and the shimmer of runes on the armor. Flows through the gaps, and all of this reveals a powerful, breathtaking majesty and beauty.

The black dragon flew in a prominent position in the entire formation, and was accompanied by four dragoons, which obviously proved the identity of the dragon.

There are "dragons" among the imperial allies, which is not a secret in itself, but hearing and seeing are completely different concepts. Not all soldiers have seen Maggie with their own eyes, and most of them are completely the first time. Arriving at the "Dragon Shadow" that crossed the sky, the strong impact spread among the soldiers - but strict discipline immediately played a role, and after a few slight armor collisions, the silence behind Margarita was restored. down.

The female knight looked up at the sky and watched the dragon descend slowly—she had seen Maggie before, and even fought side by side, but Maggie didn't have a set of advanced magic armor at that time!

The black dragon landed on the platform in the sunlight, and the accompanying aircraft also adjusted their landing trajectories. When everything stabilized and the cyclone around each aircraft gradually dissipated, Margarita immediately brought a few personal soldiers. When she arrived at the side of the dragon that was hanging its wings - she saw a figure appearing on the dragon's back. It was a particularly tall and burly figure. He stood there against the sun, just like the dragon in the bard's story. General hero.

A second later, the female knight reacted immediately and led the soldiers to salute: "Salute to you, Your Majesty!"

Gao Wen waved his hand and jumped directly off the dragon's back: "Don't be too polite, time is running out."

As he spoke, he turned and patted Maggie's hanging giant wings covered with steel machinery: "It's hard work."

Heilong lowered his head slightly, and said gently and respectfully, "This is what I should do, Your Majesty."

Several other aircraft also landed smoothly at the moment. After the pedals were put down, one figure came out of the cockpit - but Margarita knew only one person, Rebecca.

Gawain had come to Margarita at this moment, and after nodding briefly, he asked bluntly, "How is the situation?"

"Your Majesty..." Margarita felt her breathing stop for a moment, and after taking a light breath to calm down, she lowered her eyelids and whispered, "You are a step late... Minister Norris has left. "

The surrounding soldiers were silent, but Gawain just looked at the female knight in front of him calmly, his tone was calm and soft: "Margarita, don't be in a hurry to get down - how long ago?"

The female knight didn't know what the question meant, but the soldier's instinct made her answer immediately: "An hour ago, Your Majesty."

"Then maybe it's not too late for us to come -- there's still time to create a miracle," Gawain said, then beckoned to the side, "Remove all the equipment -- the technicians will follow, and we'll reassemble when we get there."

Under the bewildered gaze of Margarita and the soldiers, the group of people who had just landed immediately became busy. They quickly ran to the side of the black dragon, and then began to use various auxiliary tools and people to carry the dragon's back. The big boxes on the top were transported down - only then did Margarita notice the existence of those boxes. They looked like standard transfer boxes for engineering parts in the base, and the gray-white outer shell was printed with royal markings. The men who carried them appeared to be very cautious, and despite their rapidity, they remained steady and cautious throughout, and there was no doubt that the contents of those boxes were of great significance.

"Your Majesty, this is..." Margarita couldn't help breaking the silence curiously.

"You'll know in a while," Gawain waved his hand, "Now take us to Norris's side."

Although full of doubts, Gawain's attitude and those strange boxes suddenly gave Margarita some inexplicable "hints". The female knight seemed to have guessed something. She couldn't believe her guess, but she still straightened her back. He answered loudly, "Yes, Your Majesty."

All relevant personnel quickly rushed to the hut near the root of the giant tree of Thorin. Two fully armed treemen were still guarding the only gate. After Gawain approached, the treemen immediately retreated to both sides, and the wooden house The door opened the next second, and Bertila walked out.

"I'll try something," Gawain said before Bertila spoke, "I need your assistance—you're the best bioengineering expert."

Bertila had some doubts at first, but soon she noticed several figures behind Gawain - Yuri and Semler were standing there, and Selena Gerfen, who was holding a lantern, was standing there. The moment she saw these figures, especially the moment she saw Selena Gerfen, Bertila's doubts turned into thoughtfulness, she looked at Gawain: "Are you sure? Norris Just an ordinary person..."

"So this is an attempt," Gawain nodded and walked towards the room, "Don't worry, we have made tremendous progress in the related technology field, and I'm not the only ones who brought me here."

Bertiera was curious about what Gawain meant by "more than them", but the latter had already walked into the hut first, she could only suppress her doubts and turned to follow. The light suddenly swept across something strange - it seemed that a nearly transparent white spider flashed by in front of her eyes, but when she concentrated again, she couldn't see anything.

Even if she mobilized the perception ability of the entire Thorin Giant Tree, she couldn't find the phantom spider - it really seemed to be just an illusion.

Gawain stepped into the wooden house.

The venerable old man lay there quietly, and the fluorescent light from the glowing plants from the roof was softly covering him.

Everyone who stepped into the wooden house invariably lightened their steps, and even Rebecca, who had always been the most reckless, stood quietly by the side.

Gawain walked to the soft cave that was intertwined with vines and soft leaves. He lowered his head and saw that Norris was covered with a blanket. A transparent glass tube in which a green wheat plant was soaked, a calm and satisfied smile still remained on the wrinkled face of the old man, and he slept more peacefully than ever.

The oil-drained body finally rested.

Suddenly, a scene from a few years ago appeared in Gawain's mind. He seemed to see the pioneering camp built on a wasteland again, saw the tents and huts built with wooden boards and burlap, and saw the newly cultivated camp. The field coming out, and the old man standing beside the field smiling humbly to himself.

He bent down slowly and put his hand on Norris's.

"I'm sorry, Norris," he whispered, "I don't have your approval for what I'm going to do next. It's my wishful 'good intention', and I'm going to take an unproven, even Technology that is not really 'technical' is used on you.

"I may disturb your sleep, so... I apologize in advance here.

"But I have to do it.

"The wheat is about to ripen, you should see it with your own eyes."

Afterwards, Gawain slowly straightened his waist, looked back, and said in a low voice to the people standing by, "Let's start."

The technicians had already opened those safes after entering the house, and now they have taken out a large number of parts inside - that is the disassembled brain wave modulation device, the artificial nerve cord glowing with silver light, neat and tidy. array of crystals, and many things that Margaritas would never have guessed would be useful.

They are an incomplete set, a bunch of parts built on the basis of immersion chamber technology, which would be difficult to function under normal circumstances - but Gawain brought experts.

Seven hundred years ago, when the technical foundation in related fields was almost zero and the conditions were extremely harsh, the first generation of Eternal Sleepers had successfully saved a fragmented soul by relying on human power.

That soul belongs to a legendary powerhouse.

Now, they are trying to save the soul of an ordinary person - which is of course much more difficult than it was back then.

But the technology they have in their hands today is far from what it was back then.

The parts were quickly assembled. Beside Norris' bed, a silver-white base was placed in place, and the signal connection with the local wireless magic net was quickly completed, achieving a stable power supply, and then the crystal The array was commissioned, and artificial nerve cords extended from the pedestal—they were handed over to Bertila at the scene by Yuri.

Selena Gelfen, who appeared in the room in the form of a psychological projection with a lantern in her hand, nodded slightly to Bertila: "You know how to do it—the improvement of this technology was done by you in person back then. .

"The location of the nerve nodes remains the same, the difference is that now we don't need destructive implants -- fix them with your vines, make epidermal contacts at the base of the skull, and finally activate those nerves."

Speaking of this, Selena suddenly smiled, and she looked into Bertila's eyes: "Our success rate is very high - because you are still forcibly maintaining the activity of most of the biological tissues of this body."

Bertiera raised her hands gently, and several flower vines extending from the floor wrapped around the artificial nerve cords, and fitted them to the target position one by one. The old saintess who merged with the earth just smiled lightly.

"I still expect miracles from time to time," she whispered in a voice that sounded like she was talking to herself.

Margarita finally knew what these people wanted to do.

Rebecca, who was standing beside her, told her everything in a low voice.

His Majesty the Emperor will attempt to preserve Norris' soul and transform it into a mind that can survive the Empire's data network - not a flawed and dangerous undead spell, but a brand new magic technology.

Behind this technology, there is a project called "Immortal".

Margarita isn't interested in the secrets behind the plan -- and it's not something she should be focusing on either.

She was only concerned with what was going on in the room.

The technicians were busy in the room, and the fluorescent light from above gently enveloped the old man on the bed. The pioneer heroes who came out of legends and myths stood by the bed in awe. All this was solemn and solemn.

Margarita closed her eyes slightly.

Good things don't always happen in the world - and many times there are more bad things.

But as long as the sun still rises tomorrow, you might as well look forward to the future.
