After Alleria woke up, we solved many things that had been bothering us before, including the teleportation problem of various lost worlds. Before that, we had to wait for the opportunity to teleport to the Lost World, and waited for the bus honestly according to the "period calendar" of the mother continent. What Aurelia brought us was not only the knowledge of the ancient Xiling Empire, There are also the positioning coordinates and guide codes of various imperial facilities. As long as we have the coordinates of these imperial facilities, we can directly teleport to the corresponding lost world—according to statistics, about one-third of the lost worlds have imperial facilities, and Our goal is of course the one-third of the lost world, and the remaining two-thirds are left alone, and they will not be affected in any way during the activation process of the parent star.
Needless to say, the teleportation coordinates leading to the Dragon Kingdom is the Forgotten Garden. This ancient city of Xiling, which has been hidden in the concept layer, has been open for a long time now. We teleported directly. The teleportation exit is in front of the assembly hall square.
Sagina and Sona, as well as Lilina and Vanilla should have stayed in the mother continent. After all, they are still busy with religious activities all over the world, but the name City of Angels is so attractive that they all want to Come here to open your eyes, and it happens that the missionaries from all over the world will not have any major problems, so we took the four of them, so this is another group mission.
As soon as I stood on the square in front of the assembly hall, I felt that this place was a little different from when I left before, so I couldn't help but look around. Suddenly, I found that the tops of many buildings were emitting shimmering light, and those crystal facilities that looked dim a few days ago were also emitting crystal and soft light. In short, it gave people the feeling that this The city seemed to come alive.
A very soft, musical, but indescribable tone echoed in the air. I still remember this tone, which is exactly what I heard when the Forgotten Garden first appeared, it is said. This is the unique system sound when the large-scale facilities on the mysterious side of the empire are in operation—well, I have to say that this sound is better than the buzzing sound of psionic equipment, although the latter sounds quite interesting.
"The Forgotten Garden is gradually being activated. When the City of Angels was released, it was restarted. Now 60% of the city's functions have been restored," said Aurelia, floating in the air not far ahead. Pointing to the surrounding urban buildings, he said to us, "However, this city is mainly used as an administrative center. The scientific research and production facilities are not here. Therefore, the activated buildings are not available for the time being. Only the city's central control hall is somewhat useful." ...that's where I've been working for the past few days."
I nodded to show I knew. Alleria has been busy running between several lost worlds and the mother continent these days, and sometimes she will bring Alaya or some of the protoss five-member group to help, and the rest of us The next person... Well, in terms of cutting-edge mysterious technology, even Sandora is semi-literate, so she can only stay in the holy capital to amuse the children.
Alleria said. Suddenly floated over, and added: "The energy supply of the Forgotten Garden was not sufficient at the beginning. Fortunately, this problem was finally solved by Ilsen and Monina brothers and sisters. I would like to thank them specially."
I suddenly showed a look of surprise. Looking at the two special envoys of the God Realm who were just living with me (if I don’t say that you probably forgot that the brothers and sisters still have such identities): Have research?"
"Anyway, holy light is a universal energy. I am the best at holy light. We just provide the energy for restarting the city core." Irsen smiled very smugly, and his expression was full of self-satisfaction. "Brothers and sisters and hearts Qi Li breaks the gold."
Qianqian asked curiously: "How did you do it? Monina also knows the Holy Light?"
Monina shrugged: "Tie my brother to the Holy Light Furnace, and I'll cheer by the side."
Me: "..." I knew it was actually like this! It can only be like this...
"Where is the City of Angels? Where is the City of Angels?!" Lilina was not interested in the topic of Monina, the wonderful brother and sister, so she jumped up and down, clamoring to see the City of Angels, Aurelia Pointing to the sky: "It's right there, the Forgotten Garden is seventeen kilometers above the sky."
Only then did everyone notice that the sky in this space is obviously much higher than what we saw when we came last time—just as Alleria said, when new empire facilities appeared in the space, the available space was expanded. Increased. And in the already higher clouds, we saw a group of shadowy buildings in the sky.
"Wow!" Qianqian exclaimed suddenly, and then dragged me to the sky without saying a word, followed by a group of people, and the distance of more than ten kilometers was reached in an instant, and we flew to the clouds after a while. Looking at the magnificent scenery in front of him, he held his breath—only Sagina and Vanilla were panting heavily, the flight just now was a bit exciting for them.
We have seen the city of angels in a broken state in the different space in the assembly hall, but we didn't expect it to be so amazing after it was reorganized and complete—if the space fortress made by the technology side of the Xiling Empire is using steel power If it is shocking with the beauty of technology, then the City of Angels is using a sacred and fairytale atmosphere to intoxicate people.
We searched for a while over the City of Angels, and found a platinum tower at the highest point that had penetrated the clouds, and we settled down on the half-moon hanging platform at the top of the tower. Looking down on the City of Angels from here, you can have a panoramic view of the magnificent scenery: huge spiers floating in the sky are scattered high and low in the clouds and mist, without any rules, as if they are arbitrary, but with an indescribable coordination And beautiful, and between the towers, you can see the air corridors covered by clouds and large areas of suspended buildings. Most of these buildings are connected to each other by suspended ramps or steps, but there are also some buildings that are obviously floating independently in the air. , perhaps the only way to get there is by flight or teleportation—only angels are used to such places. Among all the buildings in the City of Angels, giant floating towers and circular suspended platforms account for seventy to eighty percent. This should be Xiling Angel's favorite architectural form: Alaya is standing next to me, her eyes are already beaming with joy. Like the Forgotten Garden, the buildings here also follow the consistent style of the mysterious side, elegant, slender, reaching to the sky, with white as the main color, and only the edges of the buildings are decorated with golden lines. And on the outer wall of the building, there are large pieces of blue crystal inlaid.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I must have thought that such a city was the stuff of fantasy.
I looked into the distance and saw unusually huge wall structures floating between the hanging towers and platforms on the outskirts of the building complex. Those wall structures with curved surfaces were also inlaid with energetic blue crystals. At its top is a wide ramp without guardrails. Alaya seemed a little dazed after seeing them, staring blankly into the distance. It took a long time before I raised my arm: "Brother Junzhu. I want to go for a walk..."
"What you see is the Eastern Wall of Angels," Alleria's voice was full of exclamations of memories of the past, "In the past, Lord Alaya and I often patrolled the ramp of the Wall of Angels to check the growth of new cores. Situation—You can see the huge crystals embedded on the wall. In fact, each crystal is a shaping energy field. The Angel Wall is a huge set of energy collection and conversion devices. It will come from the complex Energy and data are infused into the Evocation Crystal, which creates an angelic core. That is our original form, a... hard to describe ray conglomerate. There are dedicated 'caretakers' who collect these cores. Sent In the tower under our feet, the core will be catalyzed for a period of time to generate new angels. But now, this production system has been shut down."
"Brother Monarch, I want to go for a walk..." Alaya repeated again, pulling my arm.
I smiled at her: "Go, be careful not to fall..."
"It doesn't matter. The City of Angels is built at an altitude of more than ten kilometers. Even if it falls, it will have enough reaction time to fly again." Alleria seemed to be laughing, and her voice was full of joy.
Me: "..." Is this specially designed for Alaya
Sister Angel spread her wings and happily flew to the east wall of angels in the distance. She, who usually falls down while walking on the ground, showed an unbelievable dexterity and agility when flying in this cloud city. The spire hovered, skirted the clouds, passed through the fog, and landed steadily on the ramp on the top of the wall in the distance, almost reduced to a small dot, still waving to us, while on our side, Lin bowed down in shame. Heads to go... The reasons are well known.
"This is the Wall of the East Angel, so is there the Wall of the West Angel and the Wall of the South Angel?" Qianqian asked curiously, and Alleria shook her head slightly: "No, there is only the Wall of the East Angel. Qianqian was stunned: "Huh?"
"Angel's Wall is the general name of the angel core shaping factory, and the name of this shaping factory is 'East'." Alleria explained in a flat tone. As for me? Well, I kind of regret hearing this explanation... It always feels like something slammed into pieces.
"The tower under our feet is the Angel Catalysis Center, also known as the Angel Manufacturing Factory, and it is also the control center of the City of Angels," Alleria saw that the atmosphere around her was a bit strange, so she didn't think much about it, and just continued to introduce, "Its next The half is the production area, and the upper half is the control area. The public data link between the control area and the Forgotten Garden on the surface has the same function. You can check the activation progress of the mother star here. Do you want to see it?"
We readily agreed, so Alleria came to a small pillar in the center of the half-moon hanging platform, and just touched its surface lightly, and a shimmering array of runes appeared on the entire floor of the hanging platform. Seeing the array covering the entire hanging platform, Lilina muttered suddenly: "Oh shit, such a complicated thing is just an access control. Is such a high security level necessary?"
"Of course, because this is the backup control center for the mysterious system facilities on the home planet." Alleria is a question-answering type, and she will take the trouble to explain even Lilina muttering to herself, and almost As soon as she finished speaking, everyone was transferred to the interior of the Platinum Tower by a teleportation beam.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, we did not come to a place like a complicated control center, and there was no dazzling super equipment and control terminals in rows. The control center of the Platinum Tower was more complex than anyone imagined. Simple, here is a spacious circular hall with a radius of less than two hundred meters. Very empty. The hall is made of white crystal material with the same texture as the tower body. It looks like marble, but the surface has the same luster and texture as metal and crystal. The hall is about ten meters high, and the dome presents an extremely fine arc. It can't even be seen that the center of the hall is actually arched upwards. The floor of the hall is decorated with blue patterns that exude a faint halo, and regular energy pulses can be felt from it. Explain that these patterns are also things like magic circles: the facilities on the mysterious side of the empire seem to have this feature. The patterns that look like decorations are actually functional runes at the same time. The Apostle of Xiling does not waste anything for pure decoration. It is a matter of face, which is also reflected in the patterns in their buildings. In the very center of the hall, the ground is sunken downwards, forming a shallow pit with a radius of thirty to forty meters. Floating above the shallow pit is a group of rapidly refreshing holographic images—this is the only equipment in the entire control center.
Alleria led us to those holograms, and clicked a few times in the air. Next to the shallow pit, a set of control panel-like floating screens appeared. There are mysterious pictures and runes floating on the screen, as well as the Xiling characters I know. The former is like a bible to me, and I can only barely judge through the latter. These control panels show the operation of the City of Angels and the Forgotten Garden state.
"Now that the supply of the energy system has been restored, I sent all the floating monsters that can be activated to repair the Holy Light Furnace and the magic energy relay point, and finally met the current energy demand. The situation will gradually improve. "Aurelia switched the surveillance screen in front of her. While explaining his work, "The next step is to transfer the Sky Tower. But before that, I have to go there myself."
"Speaking of which, what exactly is the Sky Tower?" As soon as I heard about that tower, I immediately became interested. It was in that tower that my group first came into contact with the secret of the parent star, and only then discovered the abnormality of this world. It was also there that we saw the map of the parent star and conjectured that the 15-day region might be divided into two. It can be said that there is the starting point of all events, and there is another layer of it that we have not yet cracked. " I heard you say that there is a control center for the Colossus Soldiers, but it looks like it has more functions."
Alleria turned to me and said quietly: "It used to be the main console of the universe, the capital of the sky area, and the defense system of the entire world was controlled by it, including the control of the world gate within the universe, and all defenses on the home planet. The master switch of the facility."
We immediately oh, and expressed enough shock - did not expect the background of the Sky Tower is so big!
This also explains why a group of high-level elites like us, even a cunning and experienced guy like Bingtis, were almost unknowingly killed by the shadow system in the Phantom Tower—the defense center of the entire capital universe? Can the defense level be simple
In addition, this also explains one thing: Why did we not have the relevant technology of the gate of the world in our hands after the technological parent star represented by Pandora and the others woke up? The fragments and the database in Viska's head established the gate of the world and the foundation of today's macro world. It turned out that in the era of the old empire, the technology of the mysterious side was used for world transmission in the fifteen-day zone, and this Technology has split with the mother star and is sleeping in this universe!
"Now the universe of the capital has disintegrated, and there are only fragments of this light-year left. I am afraid that 90% of the functions of the Sky Tower have been scrapped." Alleria shook her head lightly, "but it also controls the parent star. The various defense systems and authentication hubs on the network, this part of the function is still of great significance to us, I will go to the Sky Tower again, restart the core control room there, so that we can obtain the accurate current situation of all parent star facilities And stewardship of defense systems, that job has to come first."
"But the core control room of the Sky Tower is still locked down," the elder sister looked at Alleria, "You have been there twice, didn't you fail to open that door? And..."
"I was attacked by those old friends' thought bodies in the Phantom Tower," Alleria shrugged, "That was indeed my mistake, I thought my thought bodies should have higher authority in the Phantom Tower, no Thinking that as my thought body was taken away from the Phantom Tower, the permission list was actually cleared. The security mechanism set up by Odysseus is really impossible to exploit. But soon we will have another right-hand man, He can handle the defense of the Phantom Tower."
"Who?" I wondered.
"That's what I just said, Odysseus, he is the chief designer of the Sky Tower's defense system." Alleria clicked on the projection screen in front of her, and a male head with a serious expression appeared on it immediately. He looks like a human in his 30s or 40s, with darker skin, short dark brown hair, and the lines on his face are as hard as a knife and an axe. The most striking thing is that there are no eyeballs in his eyes—and It is two jumping arcane cores, strange and mysterious, I instantly had a little impression of this head portrait, vaguely remembering that I saw this person in the old phantom in the assembly hall...
"Oh, I remembered," Qianqian suddenly realized, "I saw this man in the assembly hall at that time, and the old emperor sent this man named Odysseus to send Alaya on the road..."
A group of people looked sideways at Qianqian, and I slapped my forehead: "Old Emperor, send Alaya on the road... Although the meaning is similar, but girl... you can't say that!" RQ
