Chapter 868 Mysterious Signal

Hearing Gawain's question, Bertiera nodded: "Yes, as I stated in the report-and I still haven't figured out the source of those regular signals."

Gao Wen frowned slightly.

What he and Bertila discussed was something that happened not long ago-about a week ago, the magic net in the Sorin area completed the formation of a network in the area, and the eastern part of the "wire connection" originally relied on relay towers. The grid distribution of energy and information has been successfully achieved among several major cities in the plain, and as a regional hub, Solinburg, the largest magic obelisk here has also completed the mode conversion on the same day, becoming the total area of ​​​​the region. Hub, this thing itself went very well, but then some confusing "phenomenon" happened.

On the third day after the network was built, Bertila began to detect some regular signals of unknown origin that did not belong to the magic net itself from the crystal array located at the top of Thorin's tree.

Since the magic obelisk in the Thorin area is built on the top of the canopy of the Thorin giant tree, and many of its ancillary facilities are built on the structure of the giant tree itself, the "man" of Bertira is equivalent to a living magic net The hub, after realizing this, Gawain's technicians reached a cooperation with Bertila, the latter began to learn and get used to the manipulation skills of those magic devices, and monitor whether the signal module of the magic obelisk has any Abnormal is one of her daily tasks.

——By the way, the Thorin Hub is the only magic web hub in the empire that can maintain itself. Gawain hopes to build more, but it seems that Bertila’s cutting and transplanting technology needs to achieve breakthroughs. It's a long way off, so a similar idea can only be an idea...

After a brief thought, Gao Wen raised his head: "Can't the technicians interpret the contents of those signals yet?"

"There's no progress in cracking, that's a signal we've never been exposed to," Bertila shook his head. "It consists of a series of very short tremors and echoes of indeterminate meaning, completely different from the 'neural simulations we're currently using. Pulse' and 'Mental Transport Stream' modes. But one thing seems certain..."

Gao Wen raised his eyebrows: "Which point?"

"It wasn't a natural disturbance, certainly not," Bertila said with certainty. "Although at first we suspected that it was related to the pervasive disturbance of the magical field in nature, the technicians later collected all the magical powers around the Sorin area. The readings from the monitoring tower, those readings did not correspond to the signals I was listening to. And we sent the signal samples to Master Carmel in the Imperial City, who thought that part of the 'tremors' showed a complex combination, much like It's the result of human intervention."

"...That is to say, the technicians think the signals received by the Sorin Hub are man-made," Gawain rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully, "But...who will send those signals? Our demons The network communication system is a new thing, and no second country on this continent has mastered it..."

"If that's really man-made,

Then there must be a complete set of technology to send similar signals, and it is indeed impossible for several human kingdoms at present, but..." Bertila said slowly while thinking, the blooming vines wriggled gently behind her, sending out a burst of In a low and peaceful rustling voice, "I still remember what you said - there is more than one powerful civilization in this world, and today's humans do not have the upper hand compared to them.

"Sea-monsters, giant dragons, and even the elves in the southern part of the continent, their skills are not low-maybe we just caught their broadcast signals just by chance?"

"The elves can be ruled out. We now have technical exchanges with the Silver Empire. The two countries have established a signal relay and translation system through the Sentinel Tower. There is a signal sample on Kamel's side, so there is no 'unrecognized' problem." Gao Wen said in a deep voice, "As for the dragon and the sea monster... it is indeed possible.

"It's just that our communication with these two races is still very limited at present, especially the dragon race, which is almost a strange relationship, and it may be troublesome to rush to confirm the signal sample.

"It's the Kraken...you can try to ask. There is technical cooperation between the Cecil Empire and the Kraken."

Bertiera lowered her head: "It's up to you to decide."

Gawain nodded, but sighed softly in his heart.

There are too many unknown things in this world, and these unknown things are often dangerous. Up to now, the technical department is still trying to crack the secrets in the depths of magic power. There is an "unrecognized regular signal" that is really disturbing.

Who is sending these signals? Siren? Dragon? Or an ancient civilization hidden from human sight? Even in the depths of the wasteland of Gondor, even gods whose state is unknown... Every terrifying conjecture is actually possible.

Gawain shook his head, and then suddenly remembered something: "Speaking of which, there was a report from the north before that during the test of the magic net near Winter Castle, the technicians had heard a very strange 'howling sound'. Called 'Echoing' throughout the lewd system...I doubt the two things are somehow related."

"I've heard that too," Bertila nodded. "Intelligence is shared between several hubs. I've heard of what happened in the north, and I can't rule out that they are related, but the difference between the two events is also obvious. ——What I heard from Wintercastle was a short and messy whistle. According to the information after the event, that thing was very confusing and could not even be called a 'signal', but what Solimburg heard was clear and clear. There are many, and there are even traces of manual debugging. So although these two things can’t help but be associated with one another, I still recommend treating them as isolated incidents, at least not rashly merged.”

Gao Wen nodded slightly.

Although she has fallen into the dark sect, Bertila is still a technician after all. When it comes to related topics, her thinking is clear and clear, and it is much easier to communicate.

And after a slight pause after speaking, Bertila added: "But... if these two things are really related, I also have a guess."

Gawain glanced at the other party: "Just talk."

"If, I mean, if there is the same source behind the signals monitored by Winterhold and Solimburg, then the previous signal in the north is most likely an unsuccessful attempt - not completing the debugging, not adapting to the magic net , so it turned into a weird whistle, and when the Solinburg hub was activated, the signal was debugged and clear..."

"I don't rule out this possibility..." Gawain said while thinking, "In short, I will order all the hub towers in the country to monitor these mysterious signals, maybe we can catch more. Additional samples may help us. Uncover the secrets behind these signals. As for your side... The Thorin Tree was the first hub to capture a clear signal, we're not sure if this has anything to do with the environment of the Thorin area or the peculiarities of the Thorin hub itself, so you Be extra careful, and I'll ask the Council of State Affairs to send you a few more experts in magic net communication."

"So much the better."

After talking about these serious matters, the two fell into a brief silence at the same time, and then Gawain took the initiative to break the silence: "It's been half a year - are you still adjusting to your new identity and new life?"

"Better than I thought," Bertila seemed to laugh, "I thought it would be boring to be a plant, but all the new things you brought out really gave me a lot to do. Look. It's a great accomplishment to see the land gradually recover...and there's also the magic web radio and the magic shadow drama to watch."

"As long as you are willing to continue to be a law-abiding citizen of the Empire, there will only be more unbelievable things in the future. This is an era of rapid change."

"I'm looking forward to it," Bertila nodded, then suddenly raised his head and looked not far away, "Ah, the guest is here."

Gawain turned his head to look, and saw the figure of Selena Gerfen suddenly appearing in the air.

He nodded to the dream maiden: "Have you finished everything on your side?"

"Yuri and Semler can handle things in the real world, and Naritel and Duwart are on the Internet to handle the follow-up," Selena said calmly, "As for me... I just want to talk to Magnum. That stupid guy keep a little distance."

"What did he do again?"

"He had a good time with Norris, and then in a whimsical way he wanted to pull me in and start a club of 'cyber-mind-body' — a stupid idea."

Gawain laughed dumbly: "But I think this is a good idea - after all, you and Magnum and Norris are in a similar state, and we will add more 'Internet citizens' in the future. Magnum's suggestion may be It's a way for these 'cyber citizens' to re-organize society with new identities, and I think you can even bring Megall with you..."

"He named the club 'Yinrong Wanzai'," Selena said lightly. "After finding out what the phrase means, I decided to keep my distance from him."

Gao Wen's heart skipped a beat.

He realizes that Amber's secretly organized "The Holy Talk of Gawain Cecil the Great" has begun to spread - and his previous searches and seizures have apparently failed to take effect.

"...This name is indeed up for debate," Gawain's expression became as dull as Bertila's. "And what about Norris? What does he think?"

"He's not interested - that's a respectable man, he only cares about the food area of ​​the Holy Spirit Plains and when he can get back to work," Selena shook her head, "so I didn't want to understand that either. How does a person worthy of respect have something in common with Magnum..."

"...Maybe it's just out of politeness," Gawain said in a low voice, and then fell silent for a moment, "I'm sorry, ladies, I have to excuse me -- I have something to talk to my intelligence minister about."

Bertila bowed slightly and said, "Please do it yourself."

Gawain left, and in the quiet flower field under the Thorin giant tree, only Bertila, surrounded by flower vines, and Selena, who was holding a lantern, stood quietly.

After a moment of silence, Bertila looked at the former Archbishop of the Eternal Sleeper: "I didn't expect that we would meet again under such circumstances."

"I heard about your 'new state'. Frankly speaking, the actual situation is more incredible than I imagined," Selena said. "I reminded you earlier that your biochemical technology has great hidden dangers..."

Bertila smiled slightly: "What about your soul path?"

"...It's true."

The two fell silent again.

They stood quietly under the tree, as if allowing seven hundred years of time to slowly settle. It wasn't until a few minutes later that Selena broke the silence softly: "It's been seven hundred years..."

"We were all humans back then," Bertila said indifferently, "and then we became less and less like humans."

"...You have been rooted in this land for a while, tell me your opinion - is 'He' trustworthy?"

From the canopy of the Thorin Giant Tree came a clattering sound like a wave.

"In that body is an inhuman soul, but from my perspective, this inhuman soul is making everyone on this land more personal-maybe we can't help it. Determine exactly what an outsider like 'He' thinks, but at least his actions so far...are better than we've ever done."

"Yeah...he'll even issue citizenship to a plant."

"And 'ghosts' like you."
