MTL - Sword of Daybreaker-Chapter 1448 Every effort has its meaning

The communication with Noy continued, and the printing device connected to the magic net on the table continued to creak and creak, turning voices light years away into words and presenting it in front of Gawain and Amber. The small machine is like a tentacles extending from a super-light communication array. Between its crude gears, connecting rods, and rune substrates, Gawain seems to be able to see the light and shadow from the depths of the cold and distant starry sky. .

When the reel of the printing device started to rotate again, he suddenly had some strange feelings and associations.

Between Loren and Noy, in the long darkness separated by the distant sea of ​​stars and light years away, an intermittent superluminal communication chain is the only connection between the two civilizations. Up to now, it can still be said to be an unfamiliar ethnic group. Two ethnic groups that can't even imagine what each other looks like, in this fragile and pitiful "connection", they tried hard to reach out to each other, trying to get from here before the end. Break free from the quagmire, and just this unreliable connection is enough to give people a feeling of "Xinghai is not alone".

But whether it feels like a cluster of false fires, no one is sure yet.

A message from the Neumann appeared on the paper: "In a sense, we are all hope for the other's survival."

Gawain tapped the armrest of the seat lightly with his fingertips: "But can you confirm that the path you are walking on is the right one? Your demonic wave observation and mental unity field... have you ever really succeeded in getting a certain civilization in Survive in the Demon Tide?"

This sentence of his was quickly translated by the star solvers far away in the Thorin Command Center, and then automatically encoded and converted by the computing node connected to the Thorin giant tree. The speed of light signal crossed the vast sea of ​​stars in an instant.

After a long time, the creaking sound of gears and axles was finally heard from the printing device in front of Gao Wen, and a piece of white paper was slowly pushed out of the printing port.

"Our pioneers have almost completely resisted the magic wave, but because of insufficient observation data, they did not fully understand the weak deviation of the magic wave caused by the influence of the surrounding celestial bodies, and eventually led to failure. But even though they failed, this experience is Has been handed down and turned into the most precious legacy.

"However, we must admit that no one can prove that this path is correct. The pioneers cannot, nor can we ourselves. We have spent 1,400 years transforming our planet into a sanctuary, but this technology has historically Indeed, there has never been any successful precedent. Even if the pioneers left us a'legacy', we cannot be sure that the lessons they have summed up are the only reason for the failure of the year...

"But we have no choice and no time to find new options. In order to survive, we can only give it a go."

"There is no choice..." Gawain muttered to himself softly, looking at the clear and sharp characters on the printing paper, and almost at the same time as his voice fell, another magic net next to the desk The terminal was started, and Tyre, who was acting as the communication core in the magnifying device, appeared in the holographic projection above the terminal: "A message from Antavien..."

Amber next to him took it without waiting for her to finish: "The main antenna can't hold it anymore, right?"

"We can support another transmission or two. This time we will also put General Vanessa into the cooling circuit," Tyr said with a serious face, "Just say anything, after this communication is over. We are going to dismantle the main antenna core in order to shorten the construction period as much as possible, we plan to start the preparation work before the "energy crystal" is sent to Antavien."

Amber: "...Mom, say **** or your hardcore..."

Gao Wen didn't care what Amber was muttering next to him. Although he felt regretful, the fact that the superluminal communication array is currently in a poor state cannot be changed. He could only take a light breath and explain the situation to Noy Civilization: "Thank you. Honestly, our best scholars are already analyzing the technical data you sent, and the related project will begin soon.

"Next we will upgrade and transform the ultralight communication array. It is temporarily unclear how long this reconstruction project will last. During this period, we will stop sending out signals but our receiving antenna will remain on, as always."

The printing device calmed down for a while, and finally spit out a creak: "We understand that we look forward to the moment when your communication system is completed, and hope that by then, there will be smoother conversations between the two planets."

After a while, the printing device suddenly spit out another paragraph: "Before the communication is closed, I have one last question. Do you think the starry sky above your head...is pretty?"

Gao Wen looked at the last question that suddenly came from the Noy with some surprise. He felt that the "style" of this message seemed a little different from before, but he quickly smiled and shook his head: "Of course. , It's very beautiful."

The next second, Tyre’s voice came from the side: "The main antenna burned out and the super-light communication array shut down."

Antavien’s signal transmission process was interrupted, and the interstellar communication that spanned several light-years fell silent for a moment. A strange and empty feeling appeared in my heart for some reason, but it quickly dissipated. Gao Wen shook his head and let My mood calmed down again, and then I took a deep breath and stood up outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. The golden red afterglow of the setting sun was rushing to the city along the banks of the Baishui River, and the fine golden light was permeating from the roofs of the block buildings.

After an unknown period of time, Bertila’s voice suddenly came from the Monet terminal, interrupting Gawain’s thoughts: “Solin’s main antenna received the signal, and'Noy' is transmitting data to us. The original observation record that arrived at the last moment before the'observer' lost contact."

"Store it properly, and then forward it to the ‘Xinghai Project’ team and the Demon Tide Countermeasures Committee of various countries," Gao Wen nodded, "has the technical document of the ‘Unification of Mind Field’ sent by Noyes been translated?"

"No, the star solvers are working overtime to translate, but these documents involve a lot of highly professional content. Even if we update the'dictionary table' used to communicate with the Noyes, the translation work is still progressing difficult. Please rest assured that the computing center and the main brain array directly connected to the Sorin headquarters are fully online. With the accumulation of effective data, these computing nodes can already assist the star solvers in their work, and the translation progress should be much faster in the future."

"Very well, then this matter is left to you."

After hanging up the communication with the Thorin Command Center, Gawain came to the large French window and looked at the scenery outside the window with some wonder. At this angle, he could see the white water bank near the dusk, while the sight of another was blocked. In the direction, he could imagine the dark mountains that were gradually dyed red by the setting sun. They were the most prestigious scenery in the entire imperial capital area. He had seen such scenery for many years.

This piece of land has become what it is today under his gaze. Now, this once desolate and dangerous barren land has become the most prosperous "Magic City of Miracles" on the planet.

But in the face of the vast starry sky and the endlessly rotating laws of the universe, a cluster of mud on a small planet is really insignificant.

Amber’s footsteps came from behind, and Gawain didn’t look back, but he already felt the half-elf standing next to him. She was craned her neck and looked at the direction of Baishuihe. After watching for a long time, she mumbled: "If Noy What people say is true. After that year and a half, will we not see this kind of scenery?"

"Yes," Gawain said calmly, "If we don't take an effective response, if the Noy's intelligence is true, then our history will really reach the end."

"...You can't speak tactfully," Amber's long pointed ears suddenly trembled twice, and she raised her head and glanced at Gawain. "I'm already too panic here..."

While talking so much, she shook her head. In this chilly season, she recalled the news from the Neues, but there was still a trace of unreality that will come sooner or later. This has been for many years. The former Gao Wen had issued a warning to the world, but who would have thought that the footsteps of the doomsday were so close... In more than a year, this heavy countdown suddenly fell down like a boulder, and even made her breathless. Feeling angry.

One year later, the magic wave will sweep across the planet of the Noy, and one and a half years later, the Loren civilization will no longer exist. Looking out from here, she can see the row upon row of houses on the banks of the White Water and the sunset. The next time the lights are lit, there are prosperous and lively commercial centers, industrial blocks with roaring machines, and peaceful daily streets. However, all of these will become a dust in history, such as those extinguished in the ancient years. The civilization is average.

However, at this moment, the world is still so peaceful, except for a few people, no one in this world knows what is about to happen.

A rough and powerful hand suddenly pressed on the top of her head, causing Amber’s increasingly chaotic thoughts to come to an abrupt end. She heard Gawain’s voice from above herself: "Did you suddenly feel that we have been working hard to build What seems to have lost its meaning?"

"It's not...so serious." Amber shrank her neck. She wanted to shake her head to shake Gawain's hand, but she gave up after shaking her twice. …Why do you think this world is so malicious?"

"Did you know that there are many insects in this world that can't survive the cold winter. Some are good at digging holes in the soil, some are good at drilling holes in wood, and some can even use plant fibers to weave a'shelter' for themselves," But no matter how hard they tried, when the cold winter came, the small insects died in pieces. The nests and the rolled leaves they had built were turned into tombs in the first cold wind of winter. The traces left in the world cannot be retained until the season when the spring snow melts...

"For these worms, the wind of cold winter is the ‘magic tide’ in their world, an unstoppable doomsday torrent that will instantly turn the worm’s ‘country’ into nothing.

"However, the cold winter itself has no will, just as the magic wave itself has no will. Although we often say that this world is full of malice, for the world... it has never paid attention to us living on small planets. The'bugs' on the top are just moving in accordance with the laws of nature, sweeping the demonic wave of stars and destroying civilization... and it's just the monsoon that is constantly blowing in the universe.

"There is no problem with the operation of the world itself, the only problem... is just the fragility of civilization, just as primitive human tribes will fall in a mountain fire, for primitive tribes, the flames and passing by the mountains and forests What is the difference between the planetary tide?

"But this doesn't mean that we will walk safely and docilely toward the end of how many cold winters this world has ushered in, but have you ever seen those weak insects truly extinct after a cold winter?

"The creatures that are as weak as insects and ants have also found a way to keep their race alive in the cycle of four seasons. What we have to do is similar to that."

Amber listened quietly, and suddenly raised his head: "But do you think it is too late? If the information of the Noyes is true, then we may not have time to build any defenses. After all, there is only one year left. Half time..."

"First of all, we will do our best to do everything we can, at least without regrets," Gawain looked at Amber's eyes, "Secondly, before the real doomsday comes, the days are still to be passed. I know in advance. The countdown to the doomsday is indeed a not so lucky thing, but we are already in this position, so we can’t panic, and finally..."

Having said this, he stopped, frowned and showed a pensive look, and slowly said in his thoughts: "About the means of resisting the demonic tide... In fact, I have a feeling after seeing those technical documents, as mentioned by the Noyes. The technology of the'Unified Field of Mind'... I always feel that there is a sense of sight. I don’t know the source of this feeling, but we are definitely not unfamiliar with that thing...

"So during this period of time I have been waiting for the results of experts and scholars, I am waiting for the star solvers to complete the translation of those materials, and waiting for Jenny and Rebecca to understand the secrets behind the Noyian technology. At that time, I will know what the "sense of sight" in my heart is really going on."

…

At the same time, in the distant space, the astonishing scale of the orbiting space station "Sky" is still operating as quietly as it did for more than 1.8 million years.

The icy steel giant structure surrounds the vibrant planet below, keeping a long silence in the dark and magnificent background of the starry sky. The brilliant and stunning crown of the giant planet is slowly passing over the ring-shaped giant structure. , The vast sea of ​​luminous clouds with faint wood grains illuminates a series of viewing windows outside the Cangqiong Station, illuminating the dusty cabins and corridors in this long-silent space station.

In the past many years, there has not been any change here. The huge sun shines, the sky is silent, and the space facilities left by the sailors follow the most basic procedures to operate automatically. Time seems to have fallen into some kind of eternity in this cold universe. The cycle repeats day after day.

Today, however, there have been changes in this space station.

Through several transparent viewing windows near the rail transit section of Cangqiong Station, you can see that many figures are busy everywhere, and as these figures are busy, some of the lights outside Cangqiong Station suddenly flicker...

This ancient space station finally reacted a little to the uninvited guests who entered its interior, although the uninvited guests did not seem to understand at all how to deal with this silent behemoth, although the changes they caused after they came here have affected the entire orbital space station. It can even be ignored, but it is undeniable that...changes are taking place.
