For the people on the ground, the only communication channels between the earth and the dark moon are the two transmission facilities called "Dark Moon Gate" or "Long Bridge Ruins". They are located at the north and south ends of the Long Bridge Mountain Range, corresponding There are two equally ancient teleportation devices on the dark moon. The people on the ground believe that these two teleportation facilities are the two remaining "bridge piers" after the earth-moon connection bridge was destroyed by the goddess's sword, and believe that because the long bridge has been destroyed, the people on the ground can no longer actively open these two ancient creations However, the demons on the dark moon have stronger technology than the people on the ground. They use the power of demons and forbidden knowledge to repair their connecting bridge, and they can launch an invasion of the earth every hundreds of years. They are all the words of the church, and the vast majority of people on earth firmly believe in them.
But that's not true at all: the Earth-Moon bridge was never really a "bridge", and it couldn't be "severed by a single sword", it was two large teleportation stations from beginning to end, and—it never broke .
The Earth-Moon Connection Bridge, or the Gemini Teleportation Station, has always been intact. These two ancient facilities are just locked to the core. Only a one-foot-long control rod is needed to reopen the portal. .
After Joe suddenly came and broke a lot of rumors (well, maybe many of his comrades know his story, but for us, Joe’s identity is indeed rumors), I decided to get it this time no matter what. Let him follow to the moon. It is very likely that this male elf's family has a lot to do with An Yue, at least his mother seems to know some truth about An Yue. Considering that the elves in this world are creatures with a lifespan of hundreds or even thousands of years, on this planet, their longevity is second only to the ancient dragons, so some families in these long-lived species know that the "four Groups of people can also be imagined. I even guess that the elves probably had some kind of agreement with those four people in ancient times, such as keeping secrets to carry out missions or something, otherwise such a long-lived race—their average lifespan is enough to survive two or three dark moon wars The years - will inevitably have a great impact on the ancient non-disclosure agreement that the pope said. However, all of this is just conjecture at the moment. We have to go to Anyue to find out the whereabouts of the expeditionary forces back then, especially the whereabouts of General Angeli, in order to understand everything.
After knowing what Joe's mother said before the expedition, I felt that the 50,000 people died strangely, and based on what I learned about the "group of four", the blood princess should not be a murderer in theory, so I Bold speculation: Those expeditionary forces may not even have died back then, and the long-lived race among them is more likely to have survived to this day.
I decided to take Joe, on the one hand to give him a hand: this "hit" means a lot to him, but it's not too much trouble to us, and on the other hand - we're on the ground anyway There are only so many things that can be detected. Everyone will go to Anyue this time to find out the truth about the artifact. Now that the "covert operation" on the ground is over, it is no big deal to bring more locals at this time.
And most importantly: maybe with Joe's help we can get in touch with the survivors of the expedition, especially General Angelique, if she's really alive.
Seeing me nodding slightly, Joe was overjoyed: "You believe me? That's great, tell me where you met that adult... No, you just need to tell me what she looks like. I heard my mother mention However, that lord appeared in the form of a human being, but she didn't have time to tell me more details. You tell me the image of that lord, and I'm sure I can find her in the fortress."
Now I know why Joe puts his hopes on an "ordinary mercenary". His expectations of me are so low. What people really count on is the female dragon king...
I looked at Joe and smiled: "Are you so sure that he will help you? Do you know how sensational your plan is?"
Qiao's expression was actually quite unsure: "... If I beg her sincerely, it should be fine. My mother and that adult know each other, so she will probably take into account the old friend's favor..."
I sighed: the hot-blooded buddy in front of me doesn't seem to know much, all his motivation probably comes from adrenaline.
"You know the identity of that white-haired woman, right?" I looked at her with a smile, "Then do you know why she went to find Princess Blood? Do you know why she knew Princess Blood? Do you know what she was doing back then? Is it? You know... uh, too many questions."
Joe shook his head subconsciously: "I don't know... Hey, how do you know?"
I shook my head in a very bachelor way: "I don't know, I just think it's heartless for you to ask someone for help when you don't know anything."
Joe leaned on his war horse with a mournful face: "Isn't I being forced to do nothing? I really have no other choice? Except for the power of the ancient... that lord, I really can't think of anyone who can reverse teleport to the dark moon, five times The reversal of the portal during the war is just a coincidence... Hey, you have said so much, can you still help?"
I nodded: "Help, but there are some things I need to explain to you in advance: I will not take you to find that dragon... the woman with facial paralysis, it is definitely useless for you to find her, just follow us."
Joe looked over suspiciously: "Following you?"
"That's right," I shrugged. "Anyway, you don't need to ask any more questions. We have a way to go to the dark moon, and we are also going to find the blood princess. If you believe it, just follow."
"You guys?" Joseph, who had been quiet beside him for a long time, finally couldn't help it anymore, "You also have a blood feud?"
Me: "...don't ask so many questions, believe it or not anyway."
Joe pushed Joseph aside and looked at me firmly: "I believe, when are you going to leave?"
I looked at him in surprise: "Do you really believe it?"
Joe grabbed my hand excitedly: "Brother, don't walk me, I don't know how long you can trust me if you keep walking-and I have nowhere to go now, I don't know if I can survive In this war, if this opportunity is missed, there will probably be no second time."
I nodded, and just about to say something, I suddenly heard Sister Bing's voice in my mind: "Chen, that little dragon girl has left."
I responded, and hooked my fingers to Qiao: "Let's go now, do you still need to pack your things?"
Joe smiled and shook his head, got on his horse, and then Joseph and Anna were also ready to go. Qiao looked at his two companions in surprise: "You don't have to follow, I won't come back after I go."
"It's because you don't come back, so we can only follow you," Joseph grinned, "Okay, I've been an iron knight for fifteen years, and Anna and I have already determined that we are not soldiers. Anyway, the knights don’t lack three idiot knights, so let’s run around the world and take risks as we did back then.”
I looked at the three people who were already talking and laughing in surprise, and suddenly felt that the three of them were indeed not soldiers: look at this military discipline! People at the knight level dare to take a trip as soon as they say it
However, the discipline of the Knights is their own business, and I have nothing to do with what "adventures" the three of them have had in the past. I saw that the three of them were all sitting on their horses, so they snapped their fingers and opened the portal. After a second of blinding white light dissipated, the trio of iron knights found themselves in a huge square.
Bingtis and the others were waiting not far ahead, and when they saw me appearing with three outsiders, they all showed surprise expressions, and I immediately shared Joe's affairs directly into the data link, Lin Xue nodded: "Yeah , take it, it doesn't matter."
I turned my head and waved to the trio of iron knights who were still in the circle: "It's the stop, get off your horses."
The three of them jumped off their horses dizzily: they just got on their horses two seconds ago and were about to trek up the Baili Mountain Road, but they arrived at the stop in the blink of an eye. How embarrassing for me to say that you can teleport in groups."
I didn't bother to talk to them, but first observed the surrounding situation. This is a large open-air building like the Colosseum in ancient Rome, surrounded by circles of white stone steps rising upwards in a step-like shape, but unlike the Colosseum, there are no audience seats and seats on those white stone "steps". The platforms prepared for the nobles are only shimmering runes and some strange columns: all the steps are more than two meters wide and less than one meter high, and there are a large number of silver-white cylinders lined up on them, and each column is They are just on the same level as the upper step. They are only as thick as the mouth of a bowl. The distance between two columns on the same level is about ten meters. It feels like a circle of loose alloy fences inserted in those stepped white stones. on the steps. I roughly estimated that this bowl-shaped building has hundreds of steps, and the whole building is precisely piled up with a kind of white boulder. In order to ensure the coherence of those runes, the gap between every two white stones is almost no more than a strand of hair. The scale of this thing is almost a miracle in the face of the current human productivity in this world: just the perfect circular square where everyone stands at the bottom of it is equivalent to the size of five football fields connected together. The array and the seamless architectural form - it seems reasonable for the people on the ground to regard it as a relic left by the gods now, and as far as I know, the current technology of the people on the ground cannot create such a large and magic-powered overall system , This is also the reason why people on the ground regard it as a miracle. I can feel the magic energy surging deep underground. Those energies are very strong, and obviously belong to a complete and complex operation system, but now their flow speed is very Slow and stagnant, it is reminiscent of "standby".
Maybe this building is really in a "standby" state, but now it is ready to start: Dragon Lady Saya is in the middle of the square, where there is a silver-white metal column standing on the ground, as tall as a person and as thick as a bucket , the complex golden runes on the metal pillars were refreshed quickly, and Sonia was concentrating on adjusting something according to those runes, completely unaware that there was a crowd of onlookers standing tens of meters away from her, and they were more than Compared with last time, there were three more people in the crowd this time.
"That's it..." Joe recovered from the shock brought by this grand building, and only saw the white-haired woman in front of him at this moment. He subconsciously took half a step forward, but I held him down: "She I can’t see us, so wait now to see how she activates the portal, and I’m also very interested in the first season of Civilization.”
Joseph and Anna only knew that the identity of the white-haired woman was unusual, but they did not know the real identity of the dragon girl from Joe, so it was not surprising. Joe gave us a shocked look: "How can invisibility be hidden..."
Lin Xue glanced at him: "If you want to hitch a ride, don't talk nonsense, you will be surprised when you are on the moon."
After finishing speaking, the eldest lady strolled towards the dragon girl to observe how she manipulated the portal at a close distance, while Qianqian pulled Viska and bounced after her: I just hope that Qianqian will leave now. To do things like blowing air next to people's ears and eyes, she has such a strong impulse in the invisible state, she can't hold it...
"The thing left by the civilization of the last season on this planet," Bingtis twirled in a circle with his arms outstretched, "when I saw it for the first time a few days ago, I thought it was really beautiful, although it The magic network line is a bit stupid, but I want to build a large flower bed of similar shape in my temple, with holy spirit cherry blossoms and two world flowers around it, and dogtail grass at the bottom... "
I knelt down and touched the white "stone" under my feet: "It seems to be an artificial material, but it's not like metal or plastic, and it feels warm."
Pandora nodded: "High-strength low-density polymer."
It's really not easy for this girl to speak once. She didn't talk much after breakfast today, and when she opened her mouth at this time, I was shocked, thinking that Viska had sneaked over...
The trio of Iron Knights must have been full of doubts at this time, because we no longer hesitate to speak now. Those words such as "temple", "last season of civilization", "magic net", and "polymer" are listening to them. It's probably like a bible, but Joseph and Anna are carefree people, and Joe's full of thoughts are elsewhere, so the three of them didn't come up to ask, but waited obediently by the side.
At this time, Lin Xue and Qianqian had been looking at the place close to Suoya for a long time. Both of them knew nothing about magic theory. Lin Xue could at least figure out what Suoya was doing with his special ability, but Qianqian was very fast. She was bored, and she started to make funny faces a few centimeters in front of the dragon girl, show her teeth and claws, and stretch her hands behind people's heads to make rabbit ears... Joe looked up and was shocked, I quickly pressed Hold him: "Don't worry, Qianqian is measured, she won't put stickers on other people's backs..."
The poor elf brother opened his mouth for a long time, and finally fell into a daze between my brain hole and shallow brain hole, not knowing what to say.
"Zizz-Zizz-"
At this moment, Sonia seemed to have finally completed the complicated adjustments, and a sound like dense discharge began to echo in all directions. I couldn't help but look around and found the source of these sounds: those plugged into the ring The metal pillars on the "stone steps" are being charged one by one, and bright white runes emerge from their originally smooth and clean surface, making these metal pillars seem to become brightening lampposts, and the slender arcs are The metal pillars danced from one to the other, initially disorganized, but soon a periodic sequence of connections.
The control column in front of Suoya slowly lowered until it sank into the ground with a sound of mechanical friction, and then a circle of more than ten alloy countertops rose around her. It is more than a meter high, and its upper end is a sloped smooth surface. Amidst a slight sound of metal rubbing, round holes were opened in the center of those smooth capitals, and silver-white metal rods one foot long protruded from the holes—the same as that of the old Pope Edessa. The "control stick" that Wen handed to Sonia that day was exactly the same.
This Gemini teleportation station is obviously a magical creation, but its control method reminds me of the old-fashioned starship consoles made by some technological races. There are so many worlds, and there are so many things-the civilization of the last season of this planet is quite similar to me in terms of aesthetics. well timed.
Sonia searched among those metal pillars. It seemed that because she hadn't activated this place for a long time, she couldn't remember the corresponding relationship between these control rods and the base, but soon the dragon girl found what she was looking for. Thing: A column that looks no different from other bases, but the control rod inlaid on its top is much darker than the others. If I guess correctly, this dimness means that a key node is locked.
Sonia carefully removed the one-foot-long metal pillar, and placed the fake Edsawin gave her in the vacated groove, accompanied by a "hissing sound" as if a small airlock was releasing pressure. "Sound, the fake sank slightly and locked into the base, and then all the runes on its surface began to gradually brighten.
I have to say that Ed Sawin really has a set: the counterfeit he made may be primitive in our eyes, but at least it can pass the verification of the sophisticated equipment made by the civilization of the first season, which is probably equivalent to making a Tang Dynasty It is difficult to imagine the difficulty of handcrafting a seamless steel pipe capable of firing 2,000 rounds of armor-piercing projectiles.
Sonia saw that everything was starting up normally, and a look of relief appeared on her cold face. She smiled, and put her hand on the control rod closest to her, following some complicated and obscure ancient text Appearing above the control rod, a soft female voice also broadcast in the building: "Authenticate user - no user name mode, enable basic functions. The control core of the Gemini teleportation station is activated, and the power supply of the magic net is insufficient... It has been corrected. Welcome to the Gemini teleportation station. You are currently in a restricted state. You can only choose the main station and the ground station in the first sequence as the teleportation target.

All the above nonsense summed up actually means one thing: Hello, dear user, I am your father.
I didn't pay attention to Sonia's expression. Anyway, everyone except the three dizzy iron knights looked like this:
(⊙o⊙)!
This Gemini teleportation station is the same brand as the seven-hand world tree used by Ding Dong, right? RS
