Chapter 1152： Another wind (1/2)
In the early morning, the tower guard Ge Lin woke up to the low sound of a mechanical device. Sunlight was spilling into the room through the crystal glass window on the side of the tower lounge, and the decorative iron lace on the window frame cast on the floor. A bright and dark pattern, the clear sky in the distance is vast and cloudless, and the mechanical antenna plate on the top of the Lu'an hub is turning an angle, the rugged alloy frame slowly moved past the window, cutting the sky out Several ingenious geometric patterns.
"It's not bad, it's good weather... The mages' weather forecasts are getting more accurate."
The tower guard squinted his eyes and looked at the sky outside, and then murmured a deep breath. Then he put on a loose and cool thin shirt, and after taking care of his personal image, he turned and left the room-the upper area The mechanical turntable and the linkage mechanism made a reassuring low sound. Accompanied by this accustomed sound, he walked through a short corridor and a small flight of stairs to the nearby equipment room, and a blonde in a brown shirt The young man is sitting in front of the Mowang terminal, paying full attention to the beating numbers on the holographic projection, and the latest newspapers and periodicals that have been neatly cut are stacked in front of the printing device next to it.
The young man's name is Ron, who is a colleague of Greene, another tower guard of this tower. It hasn't been long since he was transferred, but his down-to-earth, diligent and likable character has been given to the tower. The "old employees" left a deep and good impression.
"Ah, Mr. Green," the blond boy in front of the Monet terminal heard the movement from the door, and smiled immediately after seeing who came. "The shift time hasn't arrived yet, you got up so early?"
"A regular schedule is good for the body-especially for middle-aged people like me who are no longer young," Green said with a smile to the young man, "Is Vikson not back yet?"
"He just came back, but soon he took two technicians out again-the secondary hub in Corson Town reads a little abnormally, and a nearby factory reported that they could not receive the data from yesterday. Luan passed the signal, and Vikson thought it might be the second-level hub that was destroyed by the thunderstorm yesterday. He wanted to see the situation in person. By the way, he drove away the gray magic car."
"It seems that the thunderstorm yesterday was more powerful than we thought," Green said casually, walking to the Mowang terminal, and at a glance, he noticed that the neatly cut newspapers and periodicals printed out by the networked printer had been printed by others. I read it, and one of the pages was marked with a red pen, "Is there anything interesting in the newspaper, Ron?"
"Ah, I was just about to say it," the young man named Ron suddenly smiled with joy and mystery. "Do you remember the'monitoring project' that Vixen has been paying attention to? It's the hub of each region. There is a monitoring station project, and it seems that there has been a remarkable progress recently. It is said that a mysterious signal has been received. Scholars have also spent a lot of time discussing this matter! There is not only one issue of the newspaper... …"
In fact, Green didn’t pay much attention to the monitoring project, but at the moment he was already interested enough by Ron’s excited tone. Before the young man could finish speaking, he had already picked up the stack of printing paper that was still faintly smelling of ink. Come.
The first thing that catches the eye is a very bold and bold headline: "Among the vast stars, is it possible that there are creatures that can think rationally like us?" 》
This is... what kind of question?
The gaze of the tower guard was instantly attracted by this wonderful title. From serving as a noble scribe when he was young, to becoming a tower guard in middle age and becoming a magic net hub, what he has seen and experienced in half his life is not too much. Few, but he has never heard of such a thing, has never heard someone ask such a question...between the stars...why would anyone view what happened between the stars like this? Even discuss this matter seriously?
If according to the priests... among the stars, shouldn't it be the position of the kingdom of heaven?
Green frowned subconsciously, then looked down with confusion, and found that the entire page of the newspaper was almost discussing this issue, and in the subsequent pages, there were even more eye-catching, more confusing and curious. Another title: "From the cave to the plain, from the foot to the distance-Royal astrologer Mr. Morgan Hugo will show you the "breadth" of the world"
Ron’s voice came from the side: "These are very interesting-although they look like boring academic discussion articles, they are unexpectedly easy to understand. I have never seen them in any newspaper or magazine. Similar to the theory about the starry sky above my head, but I heard from my teacher that the land under our feet is actually a planet, we revolve around the sun, and the sun revolves around "Ao", and Every flickering light spot in the universe may be a similar celestial system..."
Green listened to Ron’s happily narration, but he could only simply perfuse a few words-what young people pay attention to and accept looks a little different from him, a middle-aged man, although he himself has received complete general knowledge. And literacy courses, but for these knowledge that sounds "away from life", his attention is obviously less than that of Ron, who is just in his early twenties, and it is naturally extremely difficult to keep up with the topic at this time.
At the same time, his eyes quickly swept over some irrelevant reports, advertisements, and trivia in the newspaper's follow-up. A "Cecile Weekly" that was pressed below came into his sight, as expected, He also saw a title similar to the previous two articles: "The Scale of Celestial Bodies in the Eyes of Master Kamal——Knowledge and Wisdom from the Gondor Period." In the follow-up part of this article, he also saw a propaganda. It was mentioned that in order to further improve the knowledge literacy of the whole people and enrich the reading enjoyment of citizens, the Supreme Council of the Empire has instructed to issue a new journal, the main content of which is Popularization of knowledge in the field of astrology...
Seeing those clear and sharp letters, Ge Lin suddenly moved in his heart, and immediately spread several newspapers on the table, flipping through their main pages and bold and emphasized headlines, so a lot of them looked different. , Academic, interesting, popular, or discussing articles with extremely high consistency in substantive content entered his eyes.
The tower guard looked at these newspapers and smiled. Experience has already made a judgment-it seems that the Supreme Council of State has any "big plan". These newspapers should be just the first step. Soon after, the Monet broadcast Maybe there will be related new shows coming out?
It is probably difficult for ordinary people to feel the emergence of this kind of "wind direction" from the limited media they come into contact with daily, but a tower guard who sits at the regional information hub can keenly feel the release of certain signals in advance. Of course, this is the case. The premise is to have enough work experience. Green himself is a very experienced tower guard, and the young Ron...obviously did not think so much.
"Mr. Green," Ron also noticed Senior's sudden move. He was a little startled and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"
"It's nothing, it's not a bad thing anyway. You'll understand after two more years of work here," Green laughed, and while talking casually, he set his eyes on the marked page again. At this time, he I noticed that the content of this edition is not an article on academic or knowledge popularization, but a special news and a publicity draft with a "civil recruitment" nature.
