Chapter 1283: Move the whole body

Inside the Kraken Outpost monitoring the Deep Blue Nets, the soldiers on duty ran out of their rooms and curiously circled the black square that had just been salvaged. One of them was a Kraken with short silver hair. I used the trident in my hand to poke the black cube that had just been extinguished with a little bit of temperature remaining on the surface, and then turned my head and poke the proud Crowling with the tip of his tail, and his tone was full of envy: "You really Great, you fished out three of the four squares..."

Coroline raised her chin and tail triumphantly: "That is, my shipment rate is pulled up!"

"I don't know what these things are for," another sea monster circled all the squares, and after returning, he squeezed his chin and muttered, "The last time the witches sent by the queen took them. A bunch of equipment scanned these squares and left. I don’t know if they have researched anything in the past few days..."

"The research conclusion must not be so fast," Vera shook her head. "But I heard that the Queen takes this matter seriously, so I contacted our land ally on the same day-and the ally didn't know what it was. "

"Anyway, it's certain that someone is doing something," said Coroline, carrying her trident and nodding solemnly. "These square things cannot be grown by themselves in the deep blue net. Someone must have them. Throw in..."

The surrounding sea monsters immediately echoed.

Only Vera frowned slightly, as if thinking of something that she didn't understand: "But why don't the witches just transport these cubes back to study? They have to travel so long from Antavien to the boundless sea. Collecting data, even when we left, we specifically emphasized that we should keep these cubes in place at the outpost, instead of bringing them to the physical world..."

"Then who knows to go," Coroline shook her head, with a look that didn't care much about it. "Anyway, if they say this is a technical problem, then it must be a technical problem. Those of us who can only fight are watching from the side. It’s good to be lively. When the time comes, you really have to dare to emerge from this place. Let’s cut and we’ll be done..."

Vera glanced at her comrade-in-arms helplessly, sighed and shook her head: "...Sometimes I really envy your simple and straightforward attitude towards life..."



In the science and technology sector of the Antavien, the Haichao laboratory is brightly lit.

The deep-water technicians belonging to the "Inner Ring of Knowledge" are busy in the laboratory. All kinds of scientific research devices and experimental platforms that are completely different from the land style and have strong deep-sea characteristics are placed in this room shaped like a fan-shaped shell. In this spacious room, the witch Hathaway swings her long fishtail and swims from the scientific research terminal to the analyzer located in the center of the laboratory—a large device directly embedded on the floor of the room, layered on top of each other. The stacked shell-like metal base is inlaid with several shimmering orbs, which look like giant pearls scattered among the shells. Above this group of "pearl arrays", there is a number of meters in diameter. The pure and transparent "ball of pure water" is floating in the air, and a group of projections are clearly presented in the pure and transparent water.

What emerged in the image was a cube with an unusually complex structure. Its internal structure was disassembled one after another. Those three-dimensional runes, crisscrossing magical structures, and artificial crystals embedded in various key nodes. All are clearly marked and processed into translucent lines of different colors, and there are many light spots wandering in this dismantling picture, demonstrating the possible energy trend inside the cube as deduced by the laboratory analysis system And the logical branch.

This is the kind of weird block that the Kraken Sentinel "salvageed" from the deep blue pulse. Although the sentinel inevitably caused damage to every block during the salvage process, the subsequent scanning analysis showed that these blocks They all have the same internal structure, and their damage locations are different. After several samples were patched together to fill in the gaps, deep-water technicians have successfully restored the complete structure of the cube under normal conditions.

Hathaway carefully observed the image in front of her, then stretched out her hand thoughtfully, and moved a few times in the void outside the sphere of pure water, so the projected image in the sphere began to rotate, zoom, and be split. The internal structures of the cubes displayed were immediately dispersed and presented to the "Witch of the Deep Sea" in a clearer and more intuitive way.

"You have been staring at these structural drawings for the past two days, Hathaway," another deep sea witch with a gold-red fishtail swims from the side, her voice is soft and low, and looks gentle and quiet, "Look. It can be concluded that you care about it very much."

"Have you seen anything like this? Kretina?" Hathaway turned her head and said with a serious expression, "This kind of three-dimensional stacked rune structure, and the complexity of interspersed and constructed rune structures. Transmission mechanism...Even if our understanding of'magic power' is still very superficial, the...skills embodied by this thing are beyond our knowledge of terrestrial civilization."

The Deep Sea Witch, known as Kretina, raised her head, carefully observing the exploded view of the cube projected in the sphere of pure water, and said in a deep voice: "We have been on this planet for nearly a million years. The rise and fall of terrestrial civilization, most of the technologies they created are kept in our database, and I have never seen anything similar to it...Although I don’t understand the principle of it, I It can be seen that this is not something that terrestrial civilization has created, or can now create-of course, I am not referring to the craftsmanship it uses..."

"Yes, craftsmanship. The craftsmanship of this thing is not brilliant, and it is still within the capabilities of this season's civilization, but the principles behind this thing are complicated and profound, and it feels like... it's like a guide with advanced technology. The author is teaching primitive people how to assemble a machine with stones and wooden sticks, and it turned out to be successful," Hathaway said, shook her head slightly, "The processing technology is a very obvious shortcoming of these cubes, even if By replacing it with our current factories, we can also reduce the volume of these cubes by more than ten times."

"But we still don't know what these cubes are for," Cretina wiggled her tail slightly, and rolled up a burst of grunting bubbles in the laboratory. "The only thing that can be determined at the moment is that this thing is the deepest. There is also a structure that can communicate with distant places, and this structure is independent of the energy cycle of the cube. Even if the cube itself has stopped moving, the signaling device in it is still running-this shows that the deep blue network should be There are also a larger number of cubes. They may communicate with each other to form a huge network with specific functions, or they may have a higher command center..."

Hathaway fiddled with the projection of the analyzer, and the dismantling diagram of the cube was quickly assembled, then scaled and copied to present a large-scale network diagram, which is distributed along the dark blue network channels all over the planet: "Also Both situations may be correct. These cubes form a network in the network, and a certain person or force hides somewhere in the real world, secretly manipulating this thing to do something-our allies take care of the suspicious elements What's it called? Oh... by the way, everything will be..."

"...I remember that His Majesty Gawain Cecil said that this is not an official name...but it doesn't matter," Chretia said casually. "Anyway, the communication mechanisms in these cubes are still running, and look. To dismantle it, you have to knock the whole block into pieces...so let these'stone lumps' stay in the boundless sea temporarily. The interference of the water elemental world can make the controller behind these blocks lose their position, at least for a short time. Within time, they should not be able to find the reason."

Hathaway hummed, not knowing what she was thinking, but after a while she suddenly broke the silence: "Does our Cecil ally have any response?"

"They have received the information we sent and the scans of the cubes, but I guess they are at a loss as to the principles behind these cubes and their specific functions," Chretia said, shaking his head, "but anyway, We found a very important clue. Our allies are very happy about it, and the Queen is also very happy-Siren hasn’t'worked with friends' like this in too many years."

"...Is it?" Hathaway was noncommittal. She turned her head, a trace of thought and memory appeared on her face, and she said softly after a long silence, "Then I hope that this time's'friend' will not disappear casually like before. Just fine... the silent goodbye and the abrupt end of the friendship are always sad things."



Cecil City, in a large laboratory of the Magic Technology Research Institute, the atmosphere seemed very solemn.

The magic net terminal is buzzing, and the high-precision projection crystal creates a clear holographic projection in the air. The heat exchange system in the laboratory is blowing warm and suitable wind to maintain a comfortable environment in the room. However, looking at the holographic projection With the weird cube presented in, Heidi still subconsciously felt that a chill was gathering nearby.

This is something sent by the allies far in the depths of the sea, and it is a mysterious object that their sentry sent to the elemental realm accidentally "salved" out of the deep blue net.

A man-made thing that no one knows has a weird and complicated structure and an unclear function. The Sea-Monsters use their advanced technology to scan the internal structure of this thing clearly, but apart from being able to see that the cube is hidden behind Outside of the shadow of advanced technology, no one can see how this thing works and what effect it can produce.

The only thing that is certain is that there are ghosts in the Deep Blue Nets, and indeed someone has acted in the huge "power system" spread over the entire planet-and this conspiracy is ongoing!

"My assistants and I analyzed all the blueprints passed back by the sea monster," Jenny, the top head of the Rune Research Institute, stood beside Hetty. The "big rune master" rolled up her hair and wore a white uniform. , Holding a recording board full of calculation formulas and rune array diagrams in his hand, his face looked very serious, "We found that these runes have been optimized to the extreme, and many of them have not even been thought of. Advanced design, these rune texts are the “runes” we know, but after complex arrangement, their function becomes a mystery—I suspect that these single cubes are not complete, they are just components in a huge system Parts, and it’s not really activated now."

Heidi nodded slightly. Although she can't keep up with today's cutting-edge technology, as a mage, she is not an "administrative bureaucrat" who knows nothing about technology. What Jenny described is right. It is not difficult for her to understand: "In other words, these things may take on another appearance after they are actually started... Can their internal structure'progressively evolve' under the action of remote commands?"

Jenny nodded slightly: "This is a possibility."

"What do you think?" Heidi turned her head and looked at Rebecca standing next to her.

Rebecca immediately clenched her fist and said without hesitation: "This must be done by the end of all things!"

Heidi frowned insignificantly: "We all think so-now the key is what to do in the future."

"I think we need more bombings to blow up everything that is left over from the end of everything!"

"...Forget it, it's my fault to expect you to think about things outside of the technical field," Heidi suddenly covered his forehead, "you are not responsible for things like this kind of overall planning."

Rebecca blinked and looked at Hetty. Although her aunt's reaction was not so satisfied, her expression was still serious: "Aunt, am I wrong? We don't understand what these cubes do now, too. I don’t understand the purpose of throwing these cubes into the Deep Blue Nets when everything is dead — they are definitely not to block the sewers of the world — then there is only one action we can take!”

Heidi was taken aback for a moment. She didn't expect that Rebecca would actually have serious thoughts when she came with her mouth open. She couldn't help but glance at her niece: "So what are your plans?"

"...I don't have any plans. Just like your aunt said, this kind of overall planning is not something I am good at. In this regard, you, your ancestors, and the generals and marshals have to work out the details," Rebecca watched. It’s very clear, "What I know is to make as many explosives as possible and do all the preparations that can be done. Since I don’t understand what the enemy is going to do, I don’t understand it at all, anyway. It doesn’t hurt to prepare tens of thousands of tons of bombs for them in advance..."

While speaking, Rebecca nodded, as if emphasizing her correctness, and at the same time secretly made a decision in her heart: Going back, we have to get the supercritical acceleration gun and purgatory incendiary that have been tested to the end as soon as possible, and then think of a way. Put it on the 115 project...

"You..." Heidi looked at Rebecca, and finally smiled after a brief surprise. Then she cleared her throat again and returned to her serious expression. "Rebecca said something reasonable. Your Majesty is now Exploring the border of the kingdom of God, we are temporarily unable to contact, but we cannot do nothing without any action...I need to contact Aldernan and the Elven City immediately."



This huge ancient spacecraft is approaching a place called "home port".

Those who set sail back then left in this "deep sea", not only a cruising spacecraft, but also a so-called "home port"! ?

Gao Wen caught the information behind the broken characters in an instant, and Amber hanging on his arm finally broke the silence with a nervous expression: "Did the spacecraft shake suddenly!? Is this thing finally ready to explode? Oh?!"

Gao Wen glanced sideways in silence, raised his hand and took Amber off his arm and set it aside.

"It's not going to explode," he said in a low voice, "I'm afraid it has arrived at the'terminal'... this ship needs to be docked."

"Stop?" Victoria opened her eyes slightly.

Gao Wen nodded slightly, took a last look at the hall full of warning lights, and walked towards the exit of the hall: "We are going back the same way-perhaps, the biggest secret here is waiting for us in front."
