Chapter 1381 Carving

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The ancient observatory is not far from the frontline base, and Philip's army has established a foothold in this area for several days. While erecting purification devices and sentry turrets, the engineers also leveled a temporary road between the observatory and the base.  On the hardened road, Gawain, Amber, Diana and several technical experts from Typhon and Cecil quickly took the magic vehicle to the high ground where the observatory is located, and saw this building from the ancient Gondor era.  A large building that still stands today.

    The entire facility has been sealed off by the army at this moment. A "fence" made of alloy and cement piles has been erected within a hundred meters near the observatory. A simple shield generator and lightning rune array are placed on the top of the fence. On the first floor,  A thin shield surrounds the entire area, and there are jumping sparks of electricity on the outer layer of the shield. A team of soldiers has been stationed near the observatory for the past three days, and has set up two highlands that can be crossed and blocked.  The firepower point towards the side of the wasteland - although in the past three days, no aberrations or other monsters have been close to this area.

    "Those monsters seem to take the initiative to avoid here," Philip explained, "At least the 'wild' ones never come within half a kilometer of this highland, and we have found no traces of invasion or destruction by monsters in the observatory.  Experts suspect that the low-frequency energy continuously released deep in the observatory has the effect of 'driving away monsters', but they cannot analyze the specific principle. Of course, for safety reasons, I still set up these defenses here."

    Gawain nodded slightly and turned to look at Ms. Diana who got off the car with him. This "iron soldier" who once served as a guard at the Viplanton Observatory was looking in the direction of the observatory in a daze.  The eyes made of high-precision artificial crystal and bionic shell did not show any emotion, but her gaze was very serious - was she thinking of something?

    Gawain didn't know how to judge the expression on the face of "Machine Girl". After all, he was not Rosetta Augustus, so he asked casually: "Ms. Diana, did you think of anything after seeing the observatory?"  ?¡±

    "I still vaguely remember what it looked like. When I left, it stood here like this, but the disaster had not spread here yet. There was a small forest and a lush hillside nearby,"  Diana said softly, as if she was nostalgic, "My memorythere are many fractures, especially about the part seven hundred years ago. Only sporadic fragments have emerged, but only the scene of the observatory standing under the blue sky, I remember  It¡¯s very clear that at that time¡­¡±

    She hesitated for a moment, as if she was identifying something, and then raised her finger to point somewhere near the observatory: "At that time, I would wait for the sunset at that location every day, and then start patrolling near the main building until the sun rose the next day.  Get up and return to that position to take over the shift with the colleagues responsible for day inspections. But in fact, there were no dangerous things near the observatory. At that time, there were no robbers or magical beasts in the empire. Even the more dangerous beasts were prized for their delicious meat.  The nearby humans are extinct, but there must be guards near important facilities, so the low-wage, durable 'us' are the best candidates for this 'necessary quota'"

    Gawain listened to the iron man soldier's emotional memories and saw that the other person's expression remained calm during the whole process. He couldn't help but said in a somewhat surprised tone: "It sounds like you miss those days very much I  I thought the magisters back then didn't give you such complex thinking when setting up your minds - the 'iron men' in my impression all had cold and hard characters."

    "My personality has been adjusted over the past hundreds of years to be more in line with the acceptance and aesthetic tendencies of ordinary people in the current environment," Diana said calmly, "and it is a model like me that serves the non-military sector.  There are relatively flexible personality templates that can generate richer and normal feelings to reduce the resistance of ordinary people towards us. After all, human beings are creatures with delicate emotions and complex thinking. When faced with a person who is very similar to themselves but has different characteristics,  It¡¯s easy to feel nervous when you¡¯re an individual¡­¡±

    Gawain instantly understood. He knew this - the uncanny valley theory, but he didn't expect that the Gondor Ironman engineers had also specialized in this aspect when designing the Ironman

    His mind was just distracted, and then he heard Diana continue: "So just now I was really shocked when I saw your soldiers getting along so happily with a tentacle that came out of the ground.  I felt a sense of awe"

    Gao Wen: ""

    He immediately felt that this was not the same thing at all, but he always felt that if he corrected himself, the topic would continue to develop in a weird direction, so he immediately brought the topic to the real thing: "I feel both emotion and nostalgia.The pattern of Tao has always been deeply imprinted in the core of my mind, and an ancient instruction continues to strengthen its impression. Sometimes I fall into a trance, and when I wake up, I find that I have left these traces in certain places.  , This even caused some trouble to the people around me, I didn¡¯t expectit actually came from here"

    As she spoke, the black-haired head maid reached out and touched the marks on the wall, her expression suddenly became strange: "Moreover, these marks were even carved after I left the Viplanton Observatory!"

    Gawain was startled for a moment and immediately realized the amount of information in this sentence: "Wait a minute, you said that the things on the wall were carved after you left Viplanton!? In other words, they were carved after the magic wave broke out.  And then? Someone survived here and left these traces?"

    "Not necessarily," Amber said immediately, "After all, the demonic tide hadn't arrived when Diana left here, right? Maybe she left, and those who stayed here and didn't run away took the time to build a wall on the wall.  Such a pattern was carved at that time before the demonic tide broke out"

    It has to be said that although Amber speaks in a babble and sometimes seems to have weird ideas, what she is talking about at this moment is actually a little bit possible. But after Diana heard it, she shook her head: "That's impossible, the thing on the wall is  The traces should indeed be left after the demonic tide broke out, and it should be between fifteen and twenty-five years after the demonic tide broke out, because"

    As Diana spoke, one of her eyes suddenly changed. A subtle structure inside the eyeball seemed to be activated. A structure like a crystal grid opened under the eye. After a few seconds, the eyeball opened again.  Restored to its original state - this seemed to be just a deliberate display of one of his special abilities.

    "I can analyze the time difference between peeling and damage of paint and building materials in various areas of the wall. The accuracy deviation is very small within a thousand years."

    "Oh my god," Amber was shocked, "The stuff from your Gondor era is really awesome"

    Then she widened her eyes and turned to look at the marks on the wall: "So in other words, more than ten years after the demonic tide completely destroyed the Gondor Empire, there are still people active in this observatory, and they are still on the wall.  Left such a 'mark'!?"

    "I don't know but I'm sure this is definitely not something that an irrational aberration can do," Diana said in a serious tone, "But I don't believe that anyone can survive in that situation Viplanton Observatory  There are no strong enough protective facilities nearby, and the scholars and officials in the observatory are not strong enough to withstand the demonic tide, and"

    She said, with a sudden hesitation in her tone: "And if this pattern was engraved here more than ten years after I left, why would I know it and remember it deeply in the core of my mind?"

    "The pattern was indeed carved after you left, but before that, you and the people in this observatory should have known this pattern," Gawain said from the side. "This pattern must be of great significance to you, so that you are here  It is retained so firmly after the memory fails that the survivors in the observatory - let's assume there are survivors - will choose this pattern as the last one they have left here after being trapped for more than ten years.  information."

    "Can anyone really survive the outbreak of the demonic tide, and live in an isolated observatory for more than ten or twenty years?" Amber beside him couldn't help but whisper.

    At this moment, Philip's voice suddenly sounded: "It's not impossible - aren't the dark priests of the Society for the Death of All Things surviving in the wasteland to this day? Although they paid the price of not being human, this shows that as long as there is  Under certain conditions, it is possible for normal organisms to survive in the wasteland without relying on purification devices. What's more, this observatory seems to be protected by some kind of power. Its main body is intact, unlike other rigid  The Duo facility was also melted down by the deep blue magic, and there was even an observatory operating on its upper floor."

    "The upper level is still running" Gawain frowned. At this moment, he suddenly had a different emphasis and a little bit of vigilance on the still-running observatory than before. Then he turned to look at  Diana, "It looks like we should go up and take a look."
