Chapter 1293: Return to Cecil (2/2)
Gawain nodded slowly: "You will leave after a little rest and preparation. Agonda should also be waiting for your news."
…
After returning from the Kingdom of God of War, all parties acted separately. Gawain and Amber went directly back to Cecil City in Dragoon aircraft. When they arrived, the night had begun to envelope the city at the foot of the Dark Mountains. In the large study of Cecil Palace, Heidi has been waiting here for a long time.
The light from the magic spar dispelled the night that had fallen early in the winter. The streetscape outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was filled with lights and the sound of distant carriages and horses. Gawain sat back on his most familiar chair, and Hetty stood in front of him. The "Empire Butler" had a serious and solemn expression on his face, and the dark circles under his eyes seemed quite serious.
Gawain's eyes couldn't help but stayed on Hetty's dark circles for several seconds.
"This time the eye circles are real, ancestors," Heti sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead a little tiredly, "I haven't had much rest in these two days... I spent half of the time with Tifeng and the silver empire technology. The officials exchanged information about the Deep Blue Network, and I believe they are just as devastated as we are."
"So what exactly did the Krakens catch?" Gao Wen forced his attention away from Hetty's eye sockets, and asked solemnly, "I heard that it is a very complicated structure. Rune device..."
"Yes, a very complicated rune device. It looks like a black cube with a side of about two meters. The material contains magic crystals, highly purified black stones and several alloys. There are layers on the inside. "The precise structure of the sea monster," Heidi nodded, and put the drawings and documents that she had been holding on Gawain's desk. "This is the information passed by the Krakens, led by Jenny and Rebecca. The team has extracted and individually annotated the clearer structure as much as possible, you can take a look."
Gao Wen took the information, and sternly scanned the dense structure drawings and the text annotations around the drawings. He knew that he was definitely not better than the real experts in the field of runes, so he did not waste time trying to analyze and calculate those. The relationship between the rune knot and the guiding demon is to try to determine the secret of this thing directly from the structural divisions inside the "cube".
While he was reading the information, Heidi's voice continued to be heard: "At present, we guess that the construction of these rune stones is done'layer by layer'. First, the core is made, and then the shell is layered. Inlaying and drawing rune structures, and at the same time, different layers are connected by precisely placed crystalline plugs. There is a shadow of technology from the Gondor era, but it is also limited to the craftsmanship...In addition to craftsmanship, These rune stones are full of technologies that we cannot understand."
"The technology of the sailor." Gao Wen raised his head and looked at Hetty's eyes.
"The sailor... I have heard from Amber what you saw in the Deep Sea," Heti said solemnly, "If the'elf twins' hiding in the wasteland are sentries, and these rune stones are indeed From the hands of those cultists, then the mysterious technology behind these devices does have an explanation."
"...It is said that the sea monsters ‘salved’ more than one of these cubes from the deep blue network?" Gawain asked curiously.
"Yes, as of yesterday afternoon, they have found five such devices from the deep blue network," Heidi nodded, "and this is just the number of uncaptured or even undiscovered devices they successfully captured. More."
"Did the Kraken discover anything about these devices?"
"They don't have any useful clues," Heidi said, shaking his head. "The Sea Monster itself has a relatively superficial knowledge in the field of magic, and doesn't know much about the Deep Blue Network, but..."
"but?"
"The Sea-Monster Queen Petia mentioned one thing. Recently, the water elements in the endless sea are consciously staying away from the deep blue veins that pass through the endless sea. Although the elemental creatures originally didn't like the magical aura in the deep blue nets, they The recent response has been particularly obvious and... tense. The element masters and element lords did not explain this, but it seems that they are not deliberately hiding something, but they themselves can’t figure out the situation."
Gawain fell into thinking, and did not respond to Heidi for a while. After almost half a minute of contemplation, he suddenly raised his head: "Has Milmina read these materials? She has been in charge of the magic field, maybe she What can I see."
"Not yet," Heidi shook her head. "Ms. Milmina has been studying the secrets behind the volatility of magic power since she returned from the God of War last time, and she has also specially submitted a "concentration" within the Theocracy Council. Study the Do Not Disturb statement, but I think if you were to go...neither of the two senior consultants would refuse to cooperate."
"Did you concentrate on studying the mystery of magic..." Gao Wen muttered softly, but he couldn't help but think of the "Magic Kingdom" that he saw on the cruise ship. For a while, he felt a lot of emotion, "She is finally I'm free to pursue the true knowledge...but I still have to disturb her, after all, I have to send something to Ammon."
Heidi nodded immediately: "Okay, I will arrange it and go with you."
Gawain glanced at the "descendant" who had been following him for several years, and couldn't help but smile: "No, as usual, I'll take Amber and go there. You'd better get a good night's sleep. "
Heidi suddenly asked what he wanted to say: "Ancestor, I..."
"Go and rest, Heidi," Gawain interrupted her directly, "I'm back."
