Chapter 1284： The same family

Outside the main control room, the surroundings are still quiet, bright lights illuminate the long corridors, and the smoothly running mechanical devices emit a slight low hum from the depths of those ancient walls and floors—the inside and outside of the door seem to be two worlds, Standing outside gives people the feeling that the flashing alarm lights and the non-stop alarm bells in the main control room are fake.

This spacecraft is still running "smoothly" and "normally", even if its core control area has completely collapsed, even if its main control system has not issued any commands at all. It is like a hollow steel body. Every part in its body operates on its own without instructions from superiors. Numerous self-operating components work together to maintain this steel body's navigation-yet drive them to operate like this. The reason is a mystery.

Gawain and his entourage returned to the brightly-lit corridor inside the ship. They hadn’t felt anything when they walked here before, but at this time, facing the bright lights and steady mechanical buzzing all around, everyone felt the same. Unexplained chills rose from all directions. This was the cold touch after accidentally uncovering the truth. They were soberly aware that they were walking in a strange body, and every part of this body was working. Driven by some mysterious force.

These parts may even have "eyes".

"I'm a little nervous... I'm a little nervous again..." Amber murmured, her eyes constantly sweeping around, "I always think this ship can'feel' us..."

"Don't scare yourself," Gawain turned his head and glanced at the nervous half-elf, and walked forward calmly, "Let's get back outside quickly."

A group of people speeded up their steps in the corridor. They swiftly passed through the connecting passage and wide open gates when they came, and it took a short time to pass through the area inside the ship that was slowly explored before. Amber has been on the way. Worried about any accidents, such as a bunch of warning traps, automatic weapons, etc., suddenly appeared in the corridor, but fortunately this accident did not happen. They quickly saw the road leading to the "steel land". The gate, the dark and chaotic "sky" outside the gate gave everyone a feeling that was more reassuring than the brightly lit places inside the spaceship.

Everyone returned to the "Steel Land". Victoria immediately found the photo-taking crystal she had set on a nearby platform. She carefully placed the crystal that might store important information next to her body, and then looked at the backbone of the team. : "Your Majesty, what shall we do next?"

After taking action in the Tower of Upheaval, she knew that her Majesty, who had a legendary experience and knew a lot of mysterious knowledge, could recognize the words of the voyager, and even understood the many uses of these ancient "heritages". Of course, she was also curious about this. But loyalty and trust allowed her to put aside the doubts in her heart and treat all of this as unsurprisingly established facts.

Gao Wen raised his head and glanced, recalling the blurry picture he had seen on the malfunctioning terminal (that could be a navigator?) before, and stepped towards the distance: "Here, I doubt this. The direction is the'docking' area when the spacecraft is docked."

The group immediately followed Gawain's footsteps and walked forward. At this moment, there was another shock from the depths of the giant spaceship, but this time, everyone seemed calmer than before.

The ship is decelerating, and it may also be adjusting its attitude-there seems to be an independent gravity generator on the ship, so that everyone does not feel obvious to these changes in the hull, but one thing is certain, it is doing "docking" Ready.

At this moment, a gleam of light suddenly appeared in the darkness and chaos outside the shield. Mary, who was walking on the outermost side of the team, subconsciously raised her head and gave a soft exclamation: "Ah! Something is coming out of there. Up!"

Gao Wen immediately raised his head and followed Mary’s sight. In the dim darkness, a large-scale structure was gradually emerging—it was a huge polygonal structure with jagged edges. The outline is a bit like a snowflake. Due to the distance and darkness, the details cannot be seen clearly, but the vaguely revealed style is undoubtedly the same as the giant ship under everyone’s feet, in that giant structure. On the surface, you can see the uneven distribution of lights. Those lights illuminate a part of the earth, while the remaining area is completely shrouded in darkness.

In the next second, the giant steel structure that emerged in the darkness began to "sink" slowly toward the edge of the spacecraft, and Gao Wen responded: The spacecraft under his feet was adjusting its posture, and it was sailing toward the huge facility. There is its "home port".

Melita ran a distance to the side, her body was already covered by a light curtain at the same time, she quickly turned into the body of a dragon, and her low and majestic voice came from her mouth: "Everyone, come up, we better hurry up. , This ship may be docked soon-it has a limited stay and the time we can explore is also limited."

Gawain and his entourage quickly climbed up the wide spine of the giant dragon. Merita stirred the giant wings and flew directly on the surface of the ancient spacecraft. She carefully adjusted her posture in the space formed by the shield of the ship. A thrilling height quickly passed many facilities and platforms on the deck, and the edge of the spacecraft was soon faintly visible in the structure.

"What's that?" Kohaku, who was lying on the back of Melita's neck, poked her head and looked down, as if suddenly found something.

Gawain immediately walked over, following the direction of Amber's fingers, he immediately saw the situation underneath, and his brows instantly frowned.

It was an area that everyone had not explored before. It was located on the polygonal, interface-like edge of this ancient spaceship, and on the silver-gray alloy deck... Gawain saw something like plant remains. thing.

Huge branches, withered and twisted vines, huge leaves scattered on the deck, and some small-scale shrubs or flowers and plants that grew tenaciously among the plant debris—the huge plant debris has apparently been dead for a long time. , But the things that stubbornly drilled out of the wreckage were obviously still alive. They were full of greenery and grew wantonly under the light brought by the spacecraft's lighting system.

"...It looks like a very, very, very huge...plant," Melita's voice came from the front, and the dragon's tone inevitably brought a little astonishment, "and it seems that those things are just It's a part of that plant... my incubator, look at the finest branches, each one is like a house beam... I don't think the giant Thorin tree is so big!"

"Looking at the remains of a giant plant, and some small plants growing from the remains..." Gawain was equally astonished in his heart, he whispered to himself, suddenly as if thinking of something, he turned his head to look at Carmel. "I remember you mentioned it before. When you first saw this piece of steel and looked out from a distance, you saw something'hanging' on its edge, right?"

"Yes," Carmel also saw the huge vines and dry leaves below that were approaching. After a little memory, he nodded slightly, "I should have seen these things at the time-but they were far away at the time. , I didn't realize that they were actually...a bunch of dead plants?"

"Those vines or root-like structures seem to have been torn off, or were severely twisted," Amber looked at for a long time, pointing to the broken plants on the edge of the spacecraft, and said, "Look, there is a lot of Obvious signs of tearing—and those branches and leaves are clearly dried up and fallen from a larger individual."

Gawain nodded thoughtfully, and at this moment, Daniel on the dragon's back looked up and looked into the distance. The old mage's expression became serious: "Everyone, I think... we have already seen the'bigger individual'. Up."

"Ah? What are you talking about..." Amber subconsciously murmured, then raised her head and glanced at the dark space next to her. In the next second, her expression stiffened and her eyes rolled round, "What the **** is that!! "

The huge ancient spacecraft finally completed the final posture adjustment and deceleration, and in front of it, the "homeport" finally showed its clear posture in front of the uninvited guests. Gawain and Amber saw a space far larger than the spacecraft under their feet. The big man-made thing is floating in the dark. Compared with the spaceship under our feet, that thing is really called the "steel earth". How big can it be? The human eye can no longer judge. Even the transcendent with the strongest vision can only see his iron-gray alloy surface extending indefinitely in the dark, engulfed by the sparse lights and mysterious illusions in the distance, and in this real piece of The edge of the “Steel Land” is the “port” connecting with the spacecraft, a piece of irregular polygonal “connection belt” that fits the edge of the spacecraft.

It was not this "ancient giant structure" floating in the darkness that made Amber exclaim, but the things on the "harbour".

It was a tree, a giant tree that had been dead for an unknown number of years. It fell on the ground and obscured the sky. It fell there, and its grand canopy covered the entire port area, and even the vicinity of the port. Many roads and facilities in the city, the leaves and branches on the tree canopy have long since dried up, but the remaining structure is still magnificent and magnificent. It is even reminiscent of a layered giant city, and most of its roots have been broken. Because it was unable to penetrate the sturdy alloy of the sailor, it turned into debris scattered on the harbour and covered the entire ground. The entire giant tree tilted and fell at the end of the harbour without root support, with its canopy on one side. A small part extends beyond the "giant structure"-that corresponds to the remains of plants on the edge of the spaceship under everyone's feet.

And among this huge and amazing ancient wreck, you can vaguely see a lot of greenery, which is the plant that grew out of the nourishment of the wreck, or... just the "echo" produced by the death of this behemoth.

Melita let out a low growl, even if it is a dragon that has lived for a long time, she couldn't help but sigh after seeing this sight: "I have never seen this thing... The giant tree of Thorin is indeed smaller than it. ring."

"This thing is definitely not here at the beginning, the style of painting is wrong," Humber quickly made a judgment, "It looks like it'dropped' here from another place, and I don't know when it fell. It’s not alive—it’s obviously dead now anyway. And the spaceship under our feet happened to be docked at the place where the giant tree died, so we took part of the wreckage on the deck...seriously, I seem to have guessed it. What is it?"

"It's not hard to guess that Amorn has described to us what his'small courtyard' looked like more than once," Gao Wen said in a deep voice, "There is a giant tree in the center of the kingdom of God called'Reincarnation' with the crown of the tree. There is a city named "Life", the roots of the tree are coiled like vines, and a large tomb named "Death" is entwined in the vines—in fact, the giant tree of Thorin grew because of the influence of this mythological description. It became the posture you saw, and what we see now..."

He didn't finish, but Amber on the side consciously added the second half sentence: "It's mostly the original version."

After that, Amber paused, and then went on to say: "This time I can go back and have a good chat with the two in the rebellious courtyard. We first discovered Mirmina's house, and then now we see Amoen’s reincarnation. The tree withered and died in the remains of the sailor... and judging from the traces of the scene, the tree almost directly hit it."

"This is not the key. The key is why this tree is here... As the wreck of the kingdom of God, how could it fall in the remains of the sailor and float over? Or was it brought over by the spaceship under our feet?" Gao Wen frowned and whispered, "Theoretically, this kind of collision shouldn't happen...wait, collision?"

He stopped suddenly, but the scene he had seen from the surveillance log of Cangqiong Station appeared in his mind—

The giant deer, wrapped in powerful energy and holy brilliance, rushed into space from the surface of the planet, and resolutely crashed into the space station left by the sailor.

If the giant steel structure floating in the darkness and chaos in front of you corresponds to the sky station in space, if Amoen corresponds to his kingdom of God... this seems to be able to explain it?

When the god’s body chose to hit the space station where the sailor left in space, the kingdom of God he left behind also hit the "homeport" left by the sailor in the deep sea at the same time. This is exactly what Typhon's technical experts are right. The conclusion of a study of gods: gods and their kingdom of gods are essentially one and two sides.

The more Gao Wen thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, but at the same time he couldn't get rid of the strange emotion in his heart. I am afraid that he didn't know all of this, and he didn't know the kingdom of God he stayed behind when he hit the sky and stood. what's going on.

He didn't even know the existence of this spacecraft cruising in the realm of the kingdom of God and the spacecraft's home port.

While talking, the ancient spaceship has gradually approached the port ahead, and the "reincarnation giant tree" dumped on the port is pressing down like a dark cloud of astonishing size, making everyone who witnessed all this can't help but hold their breath, Mei Li The tower quietly lowered its height, carefully looking for a suitable landing site on the edge of the spacecraft, and Gawain recovered from his contemplation, raising his head and staring at the direction of the giant steel structure.

Like the ancient spaceship, the giant steel structure did not respond to the identification signal he released.

That thing... is a larger "empty body".

The dragon slowly landed on the edge of the spaceship, and at almost the same time, a small shock came from under Melita's feet. In the empty "heaven and earth", there was the sound of some kind of giant locking device activating.

The spacecraft docked at the "home port".
