Chapter 536： Dangerous signal (1/2)
The cold moon.
The coldest month of Ansu is here.
The giant day is solemnly and slowly ascended into the sky, and the yellow-brown strips floating like wood grain float on the huge daylight with a cloud-like halo. The changes in those colored stripes indicate one thing: the biggest cooling after winter. It will be coming soon.
The sun, the largest celestial body in the sky, is also the celestial body most closely related to people's lives. Experienced farmers can speculate on the approximate cooling date and temperature drop according to the changes in the stripes on that day, while scholars change according to the sun. The development of a method for deriving the overall climate for the second year of the giant day has always been a very important part of the daily life of people in this world.
St. Sunil City, the Master District.
Along with a slight rubbing sound, the “daily platform” on the upper part of the astrological tower opened its heavy and large skylight, and the magic-driven lifting platform was also firmly anchored on the top of the channel at the center of the daily platform. Morgan and Hugo and themselves. The assistants walked down the lifting platform and came to observe the position of the day wheel, ready to begin the routine observation work.
"Open filter filter mode iii."
The old royal mages gave instructions to the assistants on the side, and at the same time, they waved at the bookshelf not far away. The feather pen, parchment, ink bottle and other things flew immediately, and hovered in front of him, and received orders. The assistant ran to a control node not far away and began to inject magic into the rune.
Seeing the assistant's slightly savage movement, Morgan couldn't help but shouted: "Be careful! The runes here are worth the price!"
The assistant hurriedly controlled the magnitude of the injected magic, and as the rune columns around the platform were brighter, the skylight used to observe the daylight also floated a thin radiance.
After a while, the magic radiance condenses into a layer of light that is as solid as it is, filtering the daylight outside the skylight into a more suitable mode for human visual observation, and Morgan's Hugo nods slightly: this set of magical devices built a hundred years ago. It is still easy to use today, and as the most qualified astrologer in this astrological tower, the privilege of calling this magic device has always been his most proud thing.
The old master stood underneath the filter plate that was condensed with magical light. He looked up and carefully observed the sun wheel outside the skylight, observing the change of each color stripe on the surface, while the feather pen and parchment were suspended in him. Beside him, keep writing quickly, and record all the data and drawings.
Other assistants also came to the observation site, recording the data they were responsible for, and a quiet and awe-inspiring atmosphere enveloped the top of the astrological tower.
However, the atmosphere did not last long, and the whisper of an assistant's doubts broke the calm on the observation platform: "The bottom red grain is offset three degrees to the east?"
Morgen Hugo immediately took a look at his assistant: "What nonsense?"
"It's true! Teacher!" The assistant said quickly, and then took the record of his own to the instructor and took out the last observation record. "Look, this is the last record you personally confirmed."
Moorgen Hugo took a few pages of paper from the assistant, and the line of sight swept over it. He snorted, then looked at it more carefully, then looked up again, his eyes staring at it. The giant day in the sky.
"This is impossible..." The old astrologer muttered to himself, waving his hand to summon the phantom spell used to calibrate the coordinates, setting a large reference mark around the daylight image on the filter, but after looking at the calibration As a result, his shock has increased. "No... impossible... such a large shift... this has never been seen..."
"Teacher, are we going to report to Silver Fort?" the assistant asked cautiously. "This is an obvious celestial anomaly."
"Report Silver Fortress now!!"
......
In the Dark Mountain Range, the second mage in the Observatory on the 2nd, the young mage who was responsible for recording the changes in the sun, also stunned the record board in his hand.
“Don't it be a storm on the surface of the sun?” The young mutter muttered to himself. He took a closer look at the data and drawings on the scoreboard, then looked up and passed through the large roof on the roof of the observatory. The filter lens looks at the image of the sun wheel, and the face is incredible.
The companion on the side looked curiously: "Is it a mistake in history?"
"No, all the data is double-observed and recorded," the young mage said as he stood up and walked to the door of the observatory. "I went outside to see, and you continue to record inside!"
He walked out of the observatory and came to the platform connected to the site. The cold north wind hovered over the dark mountains, rolled over the forests and canyons, and whistled on the site that was just built a few months ago. The young mage who came out of the warm room couldn't help but linger.
The young mage propped up the shield and isolated the cold mountain wind, then took out the portable filter lens and carefully observed the sky's giant day through the lens.
These celestial observatories in the dark mountains are an adjunct to Carmel's “Magic Essence” project, which aims to study the connection between the macro-day cycle and the magical changes in nature.
For a long time, Carmel believes that the magic of nature comes from the great day in the sky, but since the whole world itself is enveloped by a powerful magical environment, it is necessary to observe the external magical changes in this “enveloping environment”. It became difficult, in order to minimize interference and improve the accuracy of observations, Kamal hosted a series of observatories built in the dark mountains.
The "No. 2 Tianxiang Observatory" is one of them.
