Sword of Daybreaker

Chapter 966 Unexpected Contact

Just like when he came, Gawain once again used the power of Heragol that was almost space-transportation to leave the upper temple on the high mountain. On a platform plaza halfway up the mountain.

Magnificent large-scale holographic projections and ubiquitous neon lights illuminated the place. At the edge of the square, Gawain saw Melita Purnia, who was already waiting here, and Amber and Veroni standing beside it. Card.

They probably came to this square to wait after receiving a notice in advance.

"It looks like your friend is already waiting for you," Heragor turned to Gawain and said, "Then I'll send it here."

After the Dragon Priest finished speaking, layers of pale golden halos began to ripple around him, but before his figure began to fade, Gawain finally couldn't help but speak: "Mr. Herragol—"

Hragol stopped: "Please speak."

"Do you remember what happened before you became a dragon priest?"

"Sorry, it's been too long."

Along with the golden halo that gradually dissipated in the night sky, the figure of this high-level dragon priest had completely disappeared from Gawain's sight.

Melita and the others walked quickly from not far away, Amber was the first to reach Gawain, her eyes widened: "Hey! You really went for a long time this time! What are you talking about? By the way, did you know that there was a strong wind outside just now! It seems that there has been a thunderstorm on the mountain for a while, but unfortunately I didn't see it at Melita's house..."

Gawain looked at the shame of this empire, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "...We talked about a lot of things. After I go back, I will tell you slowly. As for the wind, I did hear some."

"...Mysterious," Amber muttered, "I was analyzing with Veronica just now. Could you be kidnapped by that dragon god? I have almost planned the route..."

Veronica on the side immediately gave Amber a serious look: "Miss Amber, please be careful."

"I want to pay my respects to you," Melita looked at Gawain up and down and said with an expression of admiration on her face, "I rarely see anyone who can talk to Mr. Herragol... I just now But seeing you talking to the High Priest actively..."

Gawain just smiled, noncommittal.

They walked towards the exit of the square, Melita's house was on the other side of the ramp,

However, before stepping on the ramp leading to Melita Dragon's Nest, Gawain couldn't help but raised his head again and looked at the starry arctic night sky.

The stars flickered in the field of vision. Even if Tal Lund was forever shrouded in a layer of "man-made" lights, these ubiquitous "light pollution" could not completely cover up the stars in the arctic night sky - Gawain didn't know it until this moment. Realizing this anomaly, he couldn't help but look at the night sky with some kind of thought and surprise in his eyes.

This is by no means a normal optical phenomenon. Judging from the information I have recently inquired, it does not seem to be a special function of the Great Shield of Tal Lund. The starry sky seen in the most splendid city of the Dragon Kingdom is still so bright , behind this seemingly unobtrusive "scenery"... as if there is a miracle that has lasted for millions of years.

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Amber noticed Gawain's actions, and couldn't help but jumped over from the side, looking up at the sky with him, "Is there something... to see the stars?"

Gawain looked at her and saw the starry sky of Tal Lund reflected in those amber eyes, and the half-elf lady had a deep curiosity and an almost heartless smile on her face, which made him I couldn't help laughing: "Amber... Have you ever felt this way—the land we live in sometimes seems a little... cramped?"

...

Heragor returned to the hall of the temple, which was swaying with holy brilliance. He saw the elegant figure of the blond venturing quietly standing in the center of the hall. The tables, chairs and refreshments that were originally used for entertaining guests had disappeared. The high platform and the holy seat that stood there also did not appear, and the god just stood alone in the empty hall, as if he was looking at an infinitely distant place in a trance.

Facing this scene, Heragor just lowered his head and walked quickly to the Dragon God's side: "My lord, that human has left the temple."

"Hragol," the god didn't look back, only the voice came unhurriedly, "How long have you been my priest?"

"...Subordinates don't remember these details..."

"This is an order."

"...1.87 million years and 212 days."

"Really... It's been a long time," the Dragon God said lightly, "Have you thought about ending all this?"

For the first time, Heragol responded to his gods with silence.

However, the gods didn't seem to care about this, but after a moment of silence, he suddenly said without end: "I talked a lot with that human being, a lot... things that shouldn't have been talked about with other people, which made me I'm a little tired."

Herragol raised his head slightly: "Do you need to rest?"

The Dragon God didn't respond to his priest. He just raised his head slightly and looked at the resplendent dome in the hall, but his eyes seemed to penetrate the layers of illusions and reliefs, and cast them far, far away. After a long period of silence, He whispered: "Hragol, when the dragons fly in the sky today, do they still feel... cramped?"

...

The lights in the bedroom dimmed a little bit, and finally maintained at a brightness that could ensure viewing in the dark without affecting the comfort of rest. Gawain sat on a low couch covered with some kind of synthetic fabric, Stretch out your body, lean on the soft backrest in a slightly relaxed posture, and relieve your tense spirit a little bit.

Talking with God... Although everything seemed to be going smoothly, the huge amount of information in that conversation and the state of having to be tense all the time were still enough to give people a huge mental pressure, and even Gawain was no exception. And it was only now that he finally had the opportunity to relax himself and start to seriously think about the large amount of information he had obtained from the Dragon God before, and at the same time sort out useful and reliable information from it.

Rationally, he believes that the Dragon God has no need to deceive himself, and the information should not be doubted, but from a rigorous point of view, he still has to screen it carefully. This is because the gods and mortals observe the world and think about things. The difference is that the details that the Dragon God pays attention to are not necessarily the details that are useful to mortals, and secondly... it is that Gawain has already deeply understood one thing:

In this world, the gods are neither omniscient nor omnipotent.

The conversation between the Dragon God and himself may be candid, but what the Dragon God knows is not necessarily all correct, especially the part about the sailor... Obviously, there are many mysteries and it is difficult to resolve.

While thinking about it, he suddenly raised his eyes and glanced around the room where he had lived for several days.

This is a residence that is completely different from any kind of building in the Loren continent, and is also different from the house in his memory of his previous life. This is the place where the dragons rest and live in human form, and it is full of incomprehensible technology that transcends the times. product. Here, there is a true "artificial" artificial intelligence hidden behind the self-operating home facilities. Behind every silver-white wall with faint lights, there seems to be a pair of cold, mechanized eyes hidden, which is very important for Gawain... ...not very easy to adapt to.

Living in this "alive" building always made him feel awkward.

In this regard, on the contrary, Amber and Veronica seem to be more indifferent than him - Amber has not quite figured out what "strong artificial intelligence" and "controlled intelligent residence" are, so they have a good time every day. , and Veronica... her alienated mind may no longer be purely human, and she doesn't seem to mind living under the watchful eye of an artificial intelligence for a few days.

Some scattered thoughts flashed in his heart, Gawain shook his head, ready to force himself to ignore Omega's existence for a while, but at this moment, a strange flash of light suddenly entered his line of sight.

The flash came from the corner of the wall, where there is a device terminal that seems to be used to adjust the balance of indoor temperature, humidity and airflow. It looks like a square column with a height of more than one meter. However, on the surface of the column, it was originally used to display On the crystal interface of the room environment parameters, many data jumped randomly as if they were disturbed, and white lines with abnormal brightness continued to sweep the entire interface over and over again.

Gawain rolled over and sat up, cautiously approaching the device, he tapped the surface of the pillar with his fingers, and whispered, "Is this thing broken?"

I don't know if the "forty-five-degree angle slap repair method" commonly used on earth still works in such an alien, cyber and punk place...or just kick?

I just don't know if Melita will have an opinion on this.

Just as a bold idea flashed in Gao Wen's mind, the flickering and jumping lines on the surface of the device suddenly stopped, and then the cluttered and flickering data suddenly refreshed line by line. Sharp words:

"Hello."

Gawain's expression instantly became serious, and all movements stopped.

The letters on the device still appeared clearly and sharply on the crystal interface. They used the common characters of Loren continent. The owner of the characters seemed to be full of patience. Even if Gawain did not respond, those symbols still waited patiently.

After a full half a minute, Gawain finally broke the silence.

"Who are you?"

"Omega is talking to you."

Gawain stared at the words that appeared on the palm-sized interface, but he was not surprised.

At the moment when those letters jumped out, he actually thought of this possibility.

The entire Tal Lund is under the control of the huge "artificial" artificial intelligence Omega. The Omega network connects every device terminal on this continent. These terminals include not only the brains of the dragons, but also all the intelligence in their homes. facility.

Therefore, in addition to the possible "super administrators" who can directly intervene in these devices and talk to themselves outside the rules, there is only this "Omega" itself.

"Omega..." Gawain said calmly, "I thought you were just a 'service program' in Tal Lund - frankly, I'm a little surprised now."

"Omega is the service program of the dragon family and the manager of Tal Lund," the letters on the interface were quickly refreshed, with a certain mechanical coldness and sense of logic, "I hereby make corrections."

Gao Wen was not in the mood to waste energy and an artificial intelligence to pick words, he just asked in a deep voice: "Why are you looking for me? And... in this way."

"Omega has tried to establish contact with you in a more accustomed way, but it was unsuccessful. You do not have the necessary hardware foundation to directly hear the call of the Omega system, and too conspicuous contact methods will produce more than necessary. Considering the resource consumption, it is the most reasonable plan to contact you in the current form at the current moment.”

Don't have the necessary hardware foundation?

Gawain was stunned for a moment, but then he realized that the other party should be referring to the "resonance core" that every dragon should have in the brain. Obviously, as a human, there is no way for him to communicate with Omega through this method. established contact.

And after Gawain was stunned for a while, the text sent by Omega had already started the next round of refresh:

"About the purpose of this contact... for communication needs."

Gao Wen raised his eyebrows: "Communication needs?"

"Omega has been watching you."

Seeing the text that popped up on the interface, Gawain subconsciously wanted to emphasize the issue of personal privacy, but soon he thought of the "daily work" of this artificial intelligence and its tens of millions of years. Implementing the system rules, he realized that it would be meaningless to emphasize personal privacy to the other party, so he turned to another direction when he spoke: "What are you observing me?"

"Language, action, logic, many aspects - Tal Lund rarely has outsiders, so every outsider is a valuable observation sample. This time Tal Lund welcomed three visitors. The system judges that your behavior pattern is the most worthy of observation, so it is listed as a key observation object."

Looking at the lines of text that were constantly being refreshed, Gawain was suddenly a little dumbfounded, and he showed an expression that could not help but laugh-and he believed that Omega must have seen this expression of his own, as if the other party could "hear" his own voice. In this small room, I don't know how many devices with sensing ability under Omega's control are running silently: "Okay, focus on the object of observation... Then after some observation, you are Is there anything you want to tell me? Do you have any questions for me?"

"Omega wants to know what is the meaning of life."

Gao Wen: "..."

At this moment, he didn't know what kind of expression he should show. He only felt that the scene in front of him was full of weirdness. After he came to this so-called dragon kingdom, he had seen enough weird scenes, but the weird things were still one after another. , After discussing with a god how to "unbind" from the god, why did a super artificial intelligence come out to discuss philosophy with him?

And it's still so full of visual issues...
