Nasathorn, the Siren City, is about to wake up from the chaos and darkness that lasted for a hundred years, and before that, it must find a way to get rid of the many messes in front of it. The palace area and the control section in the center of the city were reduced to ruins in the big explosion, and a large area of bright flames and continuous energy turbulence shone on the ruins like a wandering torch. Krakens keep coming out of buildings all over the city, many of them just recovering from out-of-control states, while others have just been released from cages by their out-of-control compatriots. The queen and her home ministers may have to spend a lot of energy trying to fix the chaos in the social order-but compared with the vortex on the big wall, this is a small problem.
"I still remember what happened when I was entangled with that monster, and some of its sporadic plans sometimes entered my mind through spiritual connections," the Siren Queen looked at the maelstrom uncomfortably, "It used The magic technology of our sea monster... and a mysterious technology have been fused together to create this huge portal. Nasatron's energy core and a set of devices that extract energy from the earth's core provide it with initial energy, and its It works like a living thing, and after a certain stage of growth, it starts to maintain itself... like inertia, it can't be stopped. And anyway, it was not designed to have an emergency stop button from the beginning."
Shakira's face was very bad: "Once this vortex collapses... will it blow up Nasathorn? Or will it blow up a hole in the bottom of the Pacific Ocean and destroy this planet?"
"No, it's worse than that," Hao Ren said quickly while reading the scanning report sent back from the data terminal, "It won't blow up the earth—it will blow up the entire real world, that's a bigger hole , enough to make the real world and another universe annihilate each other. Of course, the situation may be slightly better, for example, the scope of the disaster will be limited to the Milky Way... "
Soma asked subconsciously: "What's the difference?"
Hao Ren shrugged: "It doesn't matter, the ball is dead anyway."
The data terminal projected a holographic image of a giant vortex, alongside complex energy diagrams and radial lines, showing the energy structure around this huge portal: "The Siren Queen is right. It has begun to maintain itself, and it is time to cut off The energy supply can only slow its growth. And this thing is fused with the big city wall. This machine doesn't think there is any way to pry it off."
Y'zaks said in a muffled voice, "Then cut off the energy supply first, at least we can have more reaction time."
The Siren Queen thought for a while, then turned around and swam behind the ruins of the palace: "Come with me, let's go to the energy core."
After swimming a few steps away, she turned around and said to General Vanessa, who had just returned from the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace and was still a little confused about the situation: "Vanessa, take your people and go release those alien races. First appease Their emotions, I will meet with them in person later, this time we made too much trouble."
Vanessa nodded in confusion, then looked up at Hao Ren and the others: "I remember that I was sent to a very strange place, where there are many people with mechanical tentacles..."
"Vanessa, go get down to business first," the Siren Queen urged from behind, "There are many people who are more confused than you. Don't mention the tentacles for a while... It's not a pleasant word."
The Siren Queen led the crowd towards Nasathorn's energy core, and on the way they encountered those Sirens who had just regained consciousness and came to ask for instructions. She assigned tasks methodically and quickly along the way. These missions include manpower counts, release of citizens still held captive, restoration of functions of core control areas, and accounting for damage. All these arrangements are exactly in place. It is completely impossible to see that she has been trapped in chaos for a hundred years. Hao Ren was very impressed when he saw this: "Your queen is a vigorous and decisive person, she looks quite chic."
"She's always been like this. But she's a very easy person to get along with outside of work." Shaqila was swimming next to Hao Ren, with a happy expression on her face, "We haven't seen each other for a hundred years... It's great that everything can return to normal. But that's all."
A group of people came to a shell-shaped building behind the ruins of the palace. In this building, there are many columnar facilities that protrude from the ground and look like U-shaped joints of large pipes. These facilities are clad in alloy heads flanked by curved crystalline walls that can be opened, reminiscent of some kind of artistically designed elevator. Everyone followed the Siren Queen into one of the facilities, and then the circular floor under their feet suddenly disappeared, and a brightly lit pipeline appeared in front of everyone.
The powerful pressurized water pushed everyone into the pipe. Hao Ren found himself going somewhere with the current.
"This is our elevator—and the city's transportation system," Shakira said, smiling happily. "This is a large transfer station, and the current can take you to many places. Oh, ordinary races may not be able to bear this, but it is quite comfortable for sea monsters."
"Uh... I feel fine," Lily scratched her chin, "but why do I feel like this is like a toilet flushing pipe..."
Everyone around immediately glared at this husky who couldn't talk more than his brain.
Nangong Wuyue followed closely behind the Siren Queen, she couldn't help it at this moment, and asked cautiously: "Queen, do you know a Siren named 'Elsa'?"
"Elsa?" The Siren Queen frowned and turned her head, "Who is she to you?"
"She is my mother," Nangong Wuyue said quickly, "I asked Shaqila and Soma, but they didn't remember the name—but my mother should be one of the siren messengers who went ashore."
The selection of the couriers who went ashore was very chaotic. Many of them were selected by the Siren Queen on a whim, and many couriers were not registered when they went ashore, so the couriers themselves were not sure about the list of companions. Shaqila and Soma had never heard of the names of the mothers of the Nangong brothers and sisters.
"Elsa... I remember her as a girl with a weird temper and a lot of courage. She always went to the sea outside to bring back some strange human relics. She liked Viking things very much," the Siren Queen Can really remember the name of an ordinary sea monster, "How is she now?"
"She... disappeared. She disappeared with my father. The place where we lived in seclusion was attacked by angry spirits, and the whole family disappeared out of thin air," Nangong Wuyue said in a low voice. "Beside this is my brother. Our father is a hunter. Devil."
"...It seems that a lot of things have happened on the land." The siren queen looked at the siblings who would attract attention no matter where they were placed in surprise, "oh, the siren has no prejudice against the witcher. It's a pity, but I believe Elsa didn't die so easily as a siren, she must have been reborn somewhere."
At this time, the speed of the water flow in the pipe dropped rapidly, and then a water flow in the opposite direction rushed from the feet. At the same time, a large number of precise and powerful small eddies were rolled up on the four walls of the pipe to fix everyone in a certain position smoothly. An arc-shaped gap was opened on the side of the pipe, and light shone in from outside the gap.
"This is the energy source of Nasathorn, we call it the core of the water."
The Siren Queen pointed to a group of brilliant rays of light and said.
Outside the pipe is a huge fan-shaped hall that looks like the inner cavity of a shell. The walls of the hall are lined with neat vertical pipes and ridges, while the inside of the hall is filled with bright but not dazzling blue-white light. This light comes from the wonderful thing in the center of the hall: it is a large ball with a diameter of more than ten meters. On the surface, you can faintly see lines like water ripples, and its interior is as crystal clear as crystal. Surrounding the giant crystal, more than ten transparent pipes vertically pass through the ceiling and the ground of the hall. In the pipes, bright light like water can be seen flowing.
This is where the power of the Nasatron comes from - it's incredible that it's been going on for over 10,000 years, which is a remarkable achievement for the creation of a mortal race.
"This is directly below the palace. Originally, there was a main pipeline extending directly from here to my palace." The Siren Queen pointed to a pipeline in front of the water core, which is currently in a dim state. "Where I can Absorb the power of the energy core and make a series of emergency controls on it. But now that the pipeline has been blown up, we can only use the backup system here to cut off its connection with the large retaining wall."
"You want to close the big wall?!" Shakira exclaimed. (to be continued~^~)
