    In the huge matrix hall, the buzzing sound caused by the operation of ancient equipment resonates between the silver-white metal columns. These sounds are superimposed on each other, and sometimes it sounds like some kind of wind chimes with wonderful melody - Austrian.  Philia vaguely remembered that a long time ago, when this underground facility was not sealed, someone had visited her and used the word "wind chimes" to comment on the sounds she made when she was thinking.

    However, that was all a long time ago, so long ago that even the tireless machines would seal the corresponding information at the bottom of the database. Nowadays, no living person will knock on the ancient dusty door here. In the huge underground facility,  Only the soulless iron man and the cold magic mechanism accompany her, a sleepless ancient ghost.

    The resonance between the square pillars gradually became softer, and the holographic projections that clearly showed the outside scene of the wasteland were extinguished one by one. Ophelia's matrix ended her short rest state and placed the person named "Vero" outside the wall.  "Nika"'s active terminal was transferred to the backup thread, and then the metal columns in the hall began to quickly adjust their heights and orientations. Each matrix node completed self-test and went online, and began to take over the information chain of various laboratories and factory facilities in the base.  road.

    At the same time as these matrix nodes changed, a metal platform located in the center of the hall also rose to the ground with a slight "hissing" injection sound. The covering device above the platform silently slid open to both sides, revealing  The precision container placed on the top of the platform is an ellipsoid-shaped protective chamber made of crystal. Countless pipes and cables are connected to the metal structure of its base, but half of the runes on the base are currently missing.  All of the above are in a state of extinguishing - and inside the ellipsoid chamber, a slightly petite and slender figure floats quietly in the thin light golden solution.

    It was a young woman, with long, light gray hair mixed with metallic texture cascading down her back. She was wearing a classical dress that no longer belonged to this era. The exquisite decorations on the dress and the woman herself were different.  The ordinary appearance shows the special identity of this "Sleeper" - but although the appearance is still beautiful, the woman floating in the pale golden solution has no vitality. She is like an exquisite doll, floating in the water.  In a coffin that has been closed for hundreds of years.

    Matrix stared at the figure floating in the container and routinely completed today¡¯s monitoring record:

    "On x month xx, xx, the 266455th day of Ophelia Norton's brain death, the matrix continues to operate, the internal conditions of the base are normal, and higher-level instructions have not been received, and the system continues to perform initial tasks"

    In a valley surrounded by a corrupted wasteland, a grid of thorns intertwined by giant plant structures has grown into a solid and dense wooden dome, which blocks the turbulent and dirty winds in the wasteland.  , and also blocked the dry sand carried by the wind and the ash debris from unknown sources. Inside the dome, the environment in the valley has been completely stabilized.

    The luminous plants embedded in the dome and surrounding rock walls provide sufficient lighting for the entire settlement. The vines that penetrate deep into the rock formations and underground provide a source of filtered clean water for the valley. The substances needed for the growth of the plants come from magic energy.  In the remaining corrupted soil, a large number of dormant "tree men" cling to the rugged rocks and slopes. In the open space between the tree men, a large number of twisted but lush plants can be seen on both sides of the path.

    If one ignores the terrifying twisting thorns on the dome and ignores the truth hidden behind this valley, the environment inside can even be described as "vibrant" - if any outsiders come here, they may not be able to survive at all.  Unexpectedly, such a place with lush vegetation would be located in the deepest part of the Gondor Wasteland.

    Subtle rustling sounds came from the forest, and a pair of elf sisters stepped out of the woods. The light green priest's robes brushed against the low shrubs beside the path, and the light shining from the dome illuminated their delicate faces.  ¡ª¡ªFilna stopped, looked up at the completely closed dome, then turned to look at the "sisters" beside her, and suddenly said with a smile: "Did the scene just now remind you of the remaining impressions in your mind?  In the southern forest, beautiful elves come from the forest bathed in sunshine and breathe the slightly moist and earthy morning breeze"

    Leerna immediately shook her head: "The remaining impressions in my mind have long been fragmented, and I don't think the scene you described can be used in such a forest catalyzed by the twisted force of nature  To think about the state of those lush green plants before they became what they are now, to human eyes, it¡¯s really disgusting.¡±

    "The eyes of a mortal" Fierna said softly, with the same faint smile on her face as always, then she calmed down her expression and glanced at the surrounding trees, "But I must admit that these believers do take"So, we will still abide by the contract," Leerna on the side said immediately, "We will find a way to deal with those sentry towers - you can trust us, after all, we have successfully achieved it a few years ago.  To infiltrate the Sentinel Tower"

    Borken's yellow-brown eyes glanced back and forth at the Elf Twins several times, and then the dark druid leader, who had transformed into a twisted tree man, shook his crown slightly, and heard the sound coming from the friction between the branches and leaves.  His old and deep voice said: "Very good, then I look forward to your results."

    "You can look forward to it - of course, don't expect it to be too early," Leerna said lightly. "After all, it is not easy to crack the Sentinel Tower. Even we have to prepare for a long time."

    "Of course, I can wait," Borken said in a deep voice, "Anyway, I have been waiting for many years"

    Accompanied by the rustling sound of the wooden structure squirming and rubbing, the old and twisted tree man squirmed its roots and left the forest path. Its figure gradually disappeared from the sight of the elves. Leerna and Fierna stared at the tree.  The figure of the Druid leader disappeared in the direction, and there was an intention that no one could understand in his deep eyes.

    Then they raised their heads and stared quietly in the direction blocked by wooden domes and rock formations - their eyes seemed to penetrate these airtight barriers and the far distances in the wasteland, staring at those who were standing at the end of the wasteland.  A giant sentinel tower that supports a magnificent barrier.

    Fierna¡¯s lips moved, and she suddenly sang softly a country ballad that has been circulated among the people of the Silver Empire since ancient times¡ª¡ª

    "The wind blows in the deep forest, and the sound of the wind is hollowThe lonely sentry tower stands in the wind, and the sentry cannot see the familiar bird flying across the sky"

    Leerna¡¯s voice answered softly¡ª¡ª

    "How long the hollow wind has been blowing, the ancient trees in the forest can't even rememberThe bird never flew across the sky againA sentry went crazy

    ¡°The birds never flew across the sky again, and a sentinel went crazy

    "A sentry went crazy"

    ¡­¡­

    "The birds never flew across the sky again, and a sentry went crazy"

    Belsetia sat on a bench beside the garden path, looking at the starry night sky with some trance. The melody hummed softly by the Silver Queen lingered in the quiet courtyard, and finally dissipated in the cold night breeze.  middle.

    "I have heard this tune before, and it seems you sang it too," Gawain glanced at the Silver Queen sitting next to him curiously, and at the same time a little confused, "But I remember that the word I heard was 'bird'  The child never flew across the sky again, because the sentry stewed a bowl of pigeon porridge'"

    "I made it by myself at the time, Uncle Gawain," Belsetia suddenly twitched her lips in embarrassment, "After all, I was still young at that time Forget it, I just sang  The only ones that are 'genuine'."

    "Okay, I knew you were making it up," Gawain sighed helplessly, then touched his chin thoughtfully, "But the original lyrics also sound weird  Or maybe this whole song sounds weird, what is the origin of this song? Is it some kind of sacrificial song?"

    "Sacrificial songs? Of course not," Belsetia was surprised and immediately waved her hand, "These are just country songs sung by the Silver Elf folk. Children sang them more. I liked running when I was young.  After leaving the Elf Court and wandering around, I learned how to sing with my friends in the countryside outside the city"

    "Singed by a child" Gawain was startled, and his expression became a little weird, "How should I put it, you are indeed a silver elf. The world's evaluation of your artistic talents is not just a random comment - a country song  You guys have made the lyrics of nursery rhymes so deep, complex and confusing."
