Chapter 941 Talk to them

The restraining device of the energy bolt has failed. Although its hardware structure is not damaged at all due to abnormal design specifications, its energy pipeline has been overloaded and burned. Now for the sake of system self-protection, the entire energy bolt assembly is firmly locked. It died in mid-air, unable to completely fall into the accommodation slot below.

The bottom end of the energy bolt is already flush with the ground. Dangerous energy sparks are constantly bursting out from the place where the bottom edge of the huge cylinder contacts the crystallized ring on the ground. Each spark is enough to penetrate the armor of a light battleship. The power of the energy plug container was not mixed with a large amount of extremely high energy resistance materials during the manufacturing process. This cylindrical sealed space would have been penetrated long ago.

According to Sandora, the material used to fix the restraint device used to fix the energy bolt is a thing with outrageous physical strength. Without large machinery and enough time, even a leader-level apostle cannot cut it off with brute force. , and the mixed astrology stone material inside also caused the restraint bracket's resistance to energy attacks to reach a terrifying 99% - which is equivalent to eliminating the possibility of interruption with one shot.

If we are given enough time, Sandora and I are not worried about not being able to cut off this thing slowly, but the problem now is that there is no time, so I can only contact the audience outside the venue - the most powerful guy I know Called in.

Because of the dangerous environment, space teleportation cannot be used rashly, so Lin could only "run away" in. However, since Shandora and I had cleaned the roads along the way and left obvious traces of progress, Lin came here faster than we did before. It was much faster when we came over. In less than ten minutes, the other party had already rushed in with a rush, accompanied by clanging sounds all the way outside. This clumsy Dragon God girl really didn't have a good mind. She followed two points. The rule of keeping the shortest line segment between the lines and turning all forks at right angles came all the way in. This can be judged from the scene when she rushed in with her head lowered and yelling. The noise she made when she came in was so loud that As for when this guy rushed in with his wall-like dragon scale shield, I almost subconsciously kicked her back - of course, due to the huge gap in strength between the two sides, Sandora had to push me away. The energy bolt was pulled out.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Lin dragged her shield, as if she had been bullied and cried. She lowered her head and apologized cringingly. She was in a mess. I rubbed my dizzy head and waved my hand to indicate that there was nothing wrong with me - of course. What is even more fortunate now is that the energy bolt has not been knocked out of order.

"The environment here is terrible, how long can you hold on?"

I looked at the Dragon God Girl. There was a light golden energy shield around her. This should be her divine power - because it is said that Lin cannot use conventional magic. She only has three powers, one is brute force and the other is Dragon's and God's instincts, this shield is obviously a third party. Lin's dragon god's body is highly resistant to damage, but psionic energy is a powerful energy second only to the void. Even the body of a god will be burned by psionic energy, and Lin's strength is almost the best among the five gods. At the bottom, only her defense is relatively strong. Without the energy immunity talent like me, I don’t know if she can persist until the mission is completed.

"It doesn't matter, I'm very strong." Lin clenched her fists with a weak expression, and there was a blast of air from her palms, "It's been more than an hour, and it's really hot here..."

An hour was not long but it was enough, so Sandora explained her job to Lin.

"Press the cylinder into the hole below as smoothly as possible without shaking at all. Especially when the cylinder is at the bottom, it must not come into contact with the surrounding crystallized ring, otherwise all the energy will erupt from the crystallized ring. . You have ten minutes, and then Arjun and I will rush to the core area at full speed." Sandora told Lin what needed to be done in detail. I felt my scalp was a little numb while listening, and then I realized The operation Lin was about to perform manually was incredibly difficult.

A cylinder with a dead weight of tens of thousands of tons and a volume almost equivalent to a building is fixed in mid-air by densely packed super-strength restraints. Lin now has to use her own brute force to push the entire system downward fifty years. Two meters, lock the entire energy bolt into the storage compartment below. During this process, your hands cannot shake even a millimeter!

Because the holding chamber under the energy plug is only a little larger than the diameter of the cylinder, it would take Ding Dong three days of starvation to fit it in. To complete this operation, Lin must do it at the top of the energy plug. The slightest shake on the surface will cause shaking that is magnified many times below. This level of difficulty...

For ordinary people, it is probably equivalent to putting a 30-pound lead weight on the arm to thread a needle and thread, and the thread end is not allowed to touch the nose of the needle when the needle is inserted. Anyone who dares to make such a request will definitely be pushed to the ground by the majority of housewives. Material for a severe beating.

Even Lin, the powerful Dragon God, couldn't help but look solemn when faced with this task that required not only strength but also absolutely precise control. The requirements for this matter were too demanding. First of all, she must have the absolute ultimate power. Strength, she can easily achieve precise and precise displacements despite bearing such a huge external force. Secondly, she must have good eyesight and good psychological quality. I think Lin may lack the latter.

"Okay, I'll try... No, I will definitely succeed! Please leave it to me!"

After thinking for a few seconds, Lin took back her precious shield and said to me and Sandora with a firm face, "Do I need to keep this pillar still after pressing it down?"

"Waiting for our signal, I will keep monitoring the energy level in the core area. You can let go after the nether energy well is shut down. By then, Ajun and I should have successfully entered the core area."

"I understand, then I'll start now."

Lin nodded clearly, and then suddenly transformed into the form of a dragon. However, compared with her hundred-meter-long god form, this dragon form is really small and exquisite, only a few meters long. It is almost impossible to move in the narrow space here. It means, but there is no other way. Only by making her form close to the god form can Lin control her power more easily. She is not an old bird like Bingtis, and she cannot give full play to herself in any form. the power of.

Lin flapped her wings and flew to the top of the energy plug. Following Sandora's instructions, she quickly cut off some restraint devices that were easier to cut off. Then she let out a clear cry and began to press down on the stuck huge device.

Don't think that Lin can't borrow strength in mid-air. She is a god. It is very easy to create a down-to-earth borrowing point in the void space. But now I am thinking about another thing.

"Shandora, how do you think she will come down in a while?"

Thinking of Linte's unique mouth landing technique, I felt worried.

Sandora: "..."

"Creak-" The harsh sound of metal snapping and twisting began to echo in the air in all directions. The outrageously strong restraint device made an overwhelmed sound under Lin's already seriously unhumane strength. Then, , the huge energy connecting bolt began to descend steadily and slowly.

At this moment, I was completely speechless: How high is the physical strength of this thing? It's hard for me to explain it with a precise numerical value, but at least it won't deviate from its position even if an asteroid hits it. However, such an indestructible thing can actually be pressed down by Lin's brute force, and it's like holding on to something. It's as stable as a feather, not even a millimeter of movement!

This is not the most cruel thing. I looked up and realized that Lin only used one hand...oh, one claw...

"Be careful! Don't go too fast!" Sandora warned loudly, "Otherwise, the restraint device will tear off the outer shell of the energy bolt."

Then she pulled my arm hard: "Let's go to the core area!"

We quickly passed through the passage shrouded in thick smoke and psionic lightning. The scenes along the way were shocking. All the metal obstacles had been torn into pieces by the shock wave. The originally twisty and difficult road became smooth, and many corners were I saw large and small oval-shaped marks on the wall. From the summary, I can judge two facts. First, Lin's shield is very hard. Second, that girl's physical education teacher died so early...

There is a wide avenue leading to the core area. Apart from the cracked energy sparks, there are basically no twisted metal obstacles. This provides us with great convenience in moving forward. Soon Sandora and I arrived at the core area. In front of the gate, at the same time, the concentration of psionic energy in the surrounding air suddenly began to decrease.

"It seems that Lin has pressed down the energy bolt." Sandora quickly operated the database gate, which did not appear to be seriously damaged. "Arjun, help form a barrier at the door. When the door is opened, no outsiders can be allowed. The energy storm is coming in.”

I immediately obeyed, and at the same time, the wide gate finally made a slight mechanical transmission sound. A little residual spark of psionic energy shot out from the connecting part of the door and began to open slowly.

Because he stayed in a high-concentration energy field for too long, even the gate was charged and turned into something similar to an "energy battery."

I followed Sandora's reminder and set up a mental barrier at the end of the passage to block the extremely strong psionic energy on the opposite side. Due to the interference of the flow route, I could clearly see that in the air opposite the mental barrier, there suddenly appeared A large number of light groups with crystal texture attached to the mental barrier as soon as they appeared, and quickly formed something as beautiful as winter ice flowers, crystal clear, emitting blue light, beautiful, but fatally dangerous.

This is a psionic crystal condensed out of thin air. If there is an induction coil nearby, these "ice flowers" can even directly generate secondary psionic crystals. In fact, this is also the production method of a small number of psionic crystals - the energy concentration outside and The activity has obviously reached an extremely dangerous critical point. Sandora was right to remind her that even if the nether energy well stops operating, the energy filled here will destroy the wreckage of the spacecraft.

"In front is the database."

Shandora gently pulled me to help me recover from the beautiful crystals in the barrier, and then took the lead towards the crystal tower in the center of the hall.

The core area is the most heavily protected place. Until Sandora opened the door here, it had not been affected by the energy storm. Therefore, as soon as I walked into the hall, my first feeling was that the world had changed.

Outside, energy was raging, explosions followed explosions, and a sea of ​​​​fire connected. Every step you took would be bombarded by psionic sparks several times. But in the hall, everything was calm, there was no explosion or thick smoke, and all the equipment was being installed. It operates quietly. There are many control terminals leaning against the surrounding walls. The control terminals are still performing complex data exchanges. When the gate is closed, there is only the low hum of the equipment, just like a place where people have just been evacuated and no one is there yet. Ordinary control hall to complete the shutdown process.

"The equipment has been started and is operating normally. Maybe the entire experimental module here has been prepared for unmanned operation in advance, which is in line with the positioning of an abyss deep submersible ship," Sandora said, "There is no database that I have ever seen. What’s the model number?”

The so-called database is dozens of meters in front of us. It is a crystal tower that can almost be described as magnificent. It connects the ground under the feet and the high ceiling of the hall. It exudes a faint blue light and floats on the surface of the database. A layer of translucent light film expands and contracts slightly as the crystal tower lights and darkens, like breathing. At the top of the extremely tall crystal tower, spiderweb-like crystalline tubes are intertwined and gathered at the connection between the tower and the hall roof. Circles of light spread out, making it look beautiful.

This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful database.

"Fortunately, the main body is not damaged and the operating system is also healthy." Sandora came to the crystal tower and gently touched the light film that was constantly fluctuating like breathing. Several rapidly refreshing images immediately appeared in the surrounding air. The holographic projection said, "This kind of database is really weird. I seem to have never seen anything like it."

"How should we deal with this? Should we move the whole thing back?" I glanced at the towering crystal tower in front of me. I never thought that the database could be such a huge thing. I thought I just needed to give it a bunch of memory cores and the like. It was enough to dismantle it, but I didn't expect... Well, even if the portable space has a huge capacity, it is no problem to put a crystal tower, but can this really be dismantled in a few dozen minutes?

"There is no other way. It is impossible to transfer all its data in a short time." Sandora quickly operated the holographic projection in front of the crystal tower and frowned slightly. "The basic principle is unknown, and the information storage method is also unknown. I have never seen this before. Is this thing really made with imperial technology?"

Although she was muttering to herself in confusion, Sandora still successfully found a way to activate the database. The blue halo of the crystal tower became much brighter for an instant, and then a monotonous electronic synthesized sound echoed in the surrounding air: "External detection detected Information connection application, application information is being checked, submitted to the Empire Central Data Network - serious error, the Empire Central Data Network is not detected, the network does not exist. Switch to local mode operation."

"The local identification library was successfully launched, and the external link application was judged. Applicant: Shandora? Kelvi? Eurasias, authority, nt, emperor, confirmed receipt of leader information, service mode is open. It is a great honor to accept you in person Inquiry, Your Majesty Eurasia.”

I was silent for a few seconds and said, "Sandora, is that Your Majesty Eurasia talking about you?"

Why does it sound so unfamiliar to me?

Shandora rolled her eyes at me: "Don't tell me that you don't even remember my full name. On certain occasions, my title is Your Majesty Eurasia. But this thing is really surprising. I didn't expect that my information It’s really amazing that it can be logged into its local service library. This leaves me with a lot of things to do.”

Shandora said, while calling up the structure diagram of the database itself, in order to inquire how to dismantle the crystal tower safely, while I looked around idly: my identity seems to be that of a bodyguard, here In this professional moment, let Sandora handle it.

"Um?"

While walking in the database hall, my eyes also swept across a bunch of holographic projections nearby, and then something suddenly jumped into my eyes, which made people couldn't help but stop, "What is this... Sandora ! Come and see this!”

"What's wrong?"

Sandora thought there was something wrong, and a space jump appeared next to me, but I just pulled her to look at a holographic projection in front of her: "This should be a diary footnote written by a researcher. Do you think this What means?"

"This... could it be..." Sandora's eyes fell on one line, and her face showed an incredible look.

Such:

At xx coordinates at xx time, the deep-sea submersible entered the proven gate of the abyss. The scanning equipment began to receive strange signals, indicating chaos. After special processing by Chief Occam, the signals showed a certain pattern and are being analyzed.

... The deep-diving ship has been sailing for more than three days, and strange signals are still continuing. There is indeed "something" in the abyss. Chief Occam's conjecture has been confirmed, but more substantial evidence is needed.

...The deep submersible ship sailed on the sixteenth day and confirmed that the Gate of the Abyss was at the extreme edge of the scanning system. It is possible to describe the space in the abyss. At least the deep submersible ship successfully "displaced" in it, Chief Ockham We decided to continue moving forward, but we left a jump coordinate to prevent us from being able to relocate the location of the Abyss Gate after advancing too far. We have collected a certain amount of intelligence, and we must return to the main material world alive to pass on the information.

...The strength of the deep submersible ship's shield began to decline. The power of the abyss has affected the second isolation layer. The nether energy well output is still sufficient. However, the team of technicians judged that the starship protection system has reached its limit and is far from Chief Occam's calculation. The "call beacon" was still a certain distance away. Unfortunately, we couldn't make a sound to them at this location, but before the starship returned, we still decided to make a trial call.

...On the thirtieth day of the deep-diving ship's voyage, it was already on its way back. The shield was close to the red line, but it had been stabilized using backup equipment. It had safely passed the jump coordinates before, and the gate of the abyss and the main material world reappeared in the sensor. Within the scope, members are in high spirits, and the joy of triumph begins to come, and they need to adjust their emotional modules to prevent work errors. According to calculations, the previous attempted call had reached the opposite side, but because the starship failed to reach the "call mark" when the call was issued, the signal may have completely attenuated to zero.

...On the fortieth day of the deep-diving ship's voyage, it is about to leave the danger zone, confirming that the mission is nearly completed. Ultimately, "they" didn't respond.

We will prepare for the next deep dive, for the Empire.
