Chapter 1012： Spin (1/2)
Peri Dinan left the room, Rosetta stood there for a while before breaking the silence as if talking to herself: "Everything is exactly as you said."
As soon as his voice fell, an invisible wind blew in the empty study room, and there was a whisper from all directions as if several sounds were superimposed in the wind: "Of course-maybe we have not been getting along so well these years Pleasant, but there is one thing you must admit that when it comes to the realm of gods, the knowledge I gave you has never been biased... As long as a cooperative relationship is established, I have always been sincere."
Rosetta squinted his eyes slightly, others may not be able to see anything, but in his sight, he has already seen starlight eroding the surrounding walls and ground, and the purple-black shadow seems to hide countless sights. , The floor-to-ceiling windows next to him were spilling into the dusk-like light, and that glow was projected on the ground, mixed with cloud-like shadows.
In this chaotic superposition of light and shadow, an abstract eye wrapped in curved lines slowly opened in front of him, and the hollow pupil was staring at this side without any humanity.
If an ordinary person sees this scene, even if it is just a careless glance, they will be instantly driven crazy by this eye and the endless knowledge contained in it-but to Rosetta and the members of the Augustus family In other words, this eye is already their "old friend".
"Sincere..." Rosetta said softly, the corners of her mouth seem to be upturned, "Actually you should be very clear that I have never really trusted your sincerity... For mortals, trusting'things' like you is too expensive Too expensive."
"...That's true," the eye was silent for a moment, and the tone that always had a sense of bewilderment converged, and he agreed quite seriously, "It must be admitted that in the past many years, I and you It’s not too pleasant to get along with...I know how much your family paid to accommodate'I', but whether you want to believe it or not, this is not my intention."
Rosetta did not speak, but silently listened to this "eye" talking to herself.
"... I have been like this since the beginning of my birth, and other gods have been like this since the beginning of the birth. To you mortals, we have never carried any malice, but our existence itself is a threat to you-just like Those who are near the flame will be burned, but this is not the fault of the flame. Augustus's son, if you abandon your prejudice, you should know that what I say is the truth.
"So, I don't expect how much you can'trust' me, because I don't even believe that I can do any harm to you in subsequent activities... Human beings should not believe in the kindness of nature, and you should not believe in one. The fragments of the gods parasitic on your family...
"But under this premise, we still have a common goal... Son of Augustus, we have a common goal."
Rosetta Augustus finally broke the silence. He whispered: "End this."
"Yes, end this, end this torture relationship for both of us," the eye said calmly, as he floated in the air, the countless curves that make up its outline and the escaping stars slowly creeping around. , There seemed to be a slight tremor in it, "Relax, this curse is finally coming to an end... Now it is better to think about a better future. You and your family can finally get rid of the nightmare, and I will usher in Freedom-don't be afraid and resist this, I can promise you that I will stand on your side and your empire... Don't you want to lose your guardian deity? Then I will replace this position, The power of dreams will become your new backing..."
Rosetta was silent for a few seconds, as if seriously thinking about the feasibility of this matter, before nodding slightly: "When the dust settles, I will seriously consider it."
"Of course, of course, you have to be so cautious, otherwise I won't approve of you so-consider it carefully, the decision is yours, no matter what answer you give at the time, our cooperation will be effective..."
The voice of that eye gradually fainted, and the floating light and shadow in the room returned to normal a little bit. As the starlight and dusk light faded away, Rosetta's eyes became a familiar room again.
He calmly stared at the empty midair, and did not look away for the next ten minutes, as if that eye was still floating there...
...
"The above is the information that General Philip just sent back." Heidi stood in front of Gawain, reporting the situation on the front line with a very serious expression. "In this battle, the Earthly Anaconda completely lost its combat power, and the recovered wreckage was basically not repaired. Worth, another armored train was severely damaged. The repair project may continue until spring. The damage to the Dragoons is still being counted. The snowstorm has caused a considerable number of missing persons, and related search and rescue work has begun."
Gawain sat behind the desk and listened to Heidi’s report without a word. This battle report that suddenly came from the front broke the stalemate and balance that had lasted for many days on the front line, and also broke the rhythm of some of Gawain’s plans. And from the large-scale operation suddenly launched by the Typhonians, he also smelled something strange.
"That is to say... the Typhons used a large-scale'miracle'," he waited for a paragraph in Heidi's report before he broke the silence. "Due to astronomical disturbance or other reasons, this thing has bypassed Our detection technology?"
"Yes, until the extraordinary phenomenon suddenly appeared in the blizzard, there was no response from the magic detection devices on the armored trains and dragoons-then the above detection devices were fully disturbed, and the enemy launched a full-scale attack." Di nodded with a serious look, "General Philip analyzed that this aspect should be caused by the special nature of'miracle'. The miracle in the form of celestial phenomena should have the effect of avoiding detection. On the other hand, it may be the Typhon people targeting us. The detection technology has carried out some kind of countermeasures. Considering that their accumulation in the magic field is far more advanced than ours, it is very possible that some kind of countermeasure spells will appear."
"The existing detection technology still needs to be improved," Gao Wen said in a deep voice. "Send the battlefield data and the various equipment wrecks carried by the Typhons collected on the spot to the Changfeng and Thorin research institutes. , Think of a way to figure out what methods the enemy used to make this sudden attack... In addition, how was the damage to the dragonborn?"
Hitillo recalled: "Two of the Dragonborn mercenaries were killed in action, 16 were seriously injured, and the rest were slightly injured...The casualties in this area have been sorted out and sent to the person in charge of the Holy Dragon Principality."
Gao Wen was taken aback, "...All the members of the Dragonborn were injured?"
War will inevitably lead to death. Even if the Dragonborn is powerful, it is impossible to face the overwhelming Typhon Air Force without casualties. This was already considered by Gao Wen when recruiting Dragonborn mercenaries, but he did not expect this powerful force. The first time the air power entered the battlefield, all his staff would be injured. This made him a little surprised for a while-didn't even one of them retreat? Are Typhon so powerful?
"According to General Philip, it seems that the dragonborn's fighting style is extraordinarily...rough," Heti apparently guessed that Gawain would have questions about this, and immediately explained, "Their fighting methods are unstructured but fierce and unusual. Regardless of the damage, it is completely different from the state of training. Our army cannot provide effective cover. In the final stage of the battle, many dragonborn choose to fight melee due to weapon damage. They grab the enemy Gryphon rider to hit the mountain... …It’s impossible not to get hurt."
