Chapter 298

Sean squatted on the ground, his eyes fixed on an almost invisible pit in front of him.

The diameter of the pit mouth is more than three meters. The edge is hard black stone like iron. It looks smooth, but it feels very rough. These stones are also built from the pit mouth down. These stones are not small enough for any adult to climb with both hands and feet. Even the bear people want to climb in this pit. It's just that no one dares to risk this deep pit, which can't see to the bottom.

Sean stood up slowly, his eyes becoming a little gloomy.

"Is it really the path of the abyss?" Cecilia saw Sean's face and had some insight in her heart, but she still wanted Sean to answer.

The path of the abyss does not refer to the portal to the abyss plane.

Another plane, such as abyss Purgatory and hell, can only be opened by a plane portal. Restricted by the force of the law, this kind of portal is not easy to open. Even the legendary top strong can't tear up the space to build a fixed-point plane portal by their own strength. That's why Andrew has to spend countless energy looking for things that can let him find the coordinates back.

So in this world, the path of the abyss usually represents only one meaning.

The road to the underground world.

That is the world where many races and monsters exist, such as dark elves, blood elves, cave demons, cavemen and so on. They call themselves underground residents and hate all surface residents and creatures - or the two hate each other. Therefore, surface residents have been trying their best to prevent the emergence of underground residents, while underground residents have tried their best to go to the surface and make a scene.

Occupy the surface world?

No one knows whether there is such an idea except underground residents.

"It is indeed the path of the abyss." Sean nodded. "But it's really sealed."

"Which side?" Asked Tina.

Not everyone can recognize the path of the abyss, but many people know some common sense about the path of the abyss.

The path of the abyss is a channel connecting the surface and underground worlds, but it is amazing that this channel is not completely created by human beings. This is a bit like a loophole in a program, but this loophole can be used by residents of both the surface and underground worlds. As long as they continue to go deep in the opposite direction by using some special means, they can open up a channel connecting the two worlds.

It's kind of like an unstable portal.

Since it is a portal, it can be closed naturally.

Residents of both the surface world and the underground world can forcibly close these channels by the same special means.

The war of the underground world invading the surface world once plunged the surface world into chaos. Later, after controlling the situation and launching a counterattack, the underground world naturally tasted the consequences. After more than ten years of war between the two sides, many channels have naturally been forcibly closed or blown up by the two sides. It is not easy for the world to find a channel connecting the two worlds.

And I don't know why, now there are almost no "loopholes" in the world, and the surface and underground worlds have gradually forgotten the existence of both sides. In the eyes of children in today's era, the underground world is just an imaginary world made up. If Cecilia hadn't really faced the crypt demon with Sean, I'm afraid she would think it was just a fabricated story.

"Look at the stones around." Sean pointed to the hard black stones around him.

Everyone looked at the stones around the hole in the direction of Sean's fingers.

"The open path of the abyss, these stones will emit a soft blue and white light, which is like the energy protection barrier of the portal, which can ensure that people from both worlds can go back and forth." Sean explained, "the path of the abyss without this light means that the path of the abyss has been completely sealed. As for which side was sealed, we can see here... "

Sean said, pointed to the circle around the pit and continued: "if we seal the path of the abyss on our side, a red aperture will appear around the channel, otherwise a red aperture will appear on the other side In fact, in the final analysis, this seal has no technical content. It is to set up a pair of magic arrays. The main array is set on the other side of the seal side, and the sub array is set on the other side, and then all the energy of the channel can be pumped out. "

"Light up?" Andre looked blank.

"Axis to axis transmission magic array technology." Cecilia immediately responded, "through complete control, all the energy is extracted and sealed. Once the energy is exhausted, the sub array will lose its value, and then annihilate itself due to the collapse of magic. At the same time, it can prevent people on the other side from reverse control."

"That's it." Sean nodded. "We use this technology in both the surface world and the underground world Strictly speaking, we surface people are still underground people. They invented this technical means first. "

"In this way, isn't the initiative in the hands of the party who arranges the magic array?" Andre's reaction is really not slow. He is worthy of being a cruel character who can survive in the wilderness for many years. He can catch the key of the problem at once.

"Yes, so for the several sealed abyss paths known so far, except one is sealed by us, the other initiatives are completely in the hands of the underground world." Sean nodded, "to this end, several empires must send heavy troops to garrison there Millennium covenant Empire, do you know what the word "covenant" in this empire means? "

Everyone shook their heads blankly.

"Guardian means." Sean said, "the Millennium covenant Empire has a large dragon knight army. In terms of comprehensive military strength, it is definitely the largest of the seven empires, but why is it always lower in the ranking of the seven empires? In order to abide by the Millennium covenant, they must use nearly half of the military strength of the whole empire to resist the invasion of the underground world and recruit pagans. The empire that can defend the path of three abysses by relying on the power of one country, I'm afraid no empire can compare with it except the qainas Empire, but the qainas Empire also has inherent weaknesses. "

"Internal parties continue to fight." Cecilia said, then suddenly saw that everyone was looking at herself, and immediately subconsciously added, "I saw it in the book."

So everyone looked at Sean again.

In everyone's perception, Sean is a noble born in the qainas empire.

"Indeed." Sean smiled and nodded, "so it's very hard for the qainas Empire to just guard the two abyss paths. No army or noble in the empire is willing to do this thankless thing So basically, in the qainas Empire, only those troops and nobles who have been sentenced to heavy sentences will be arranged to guard the path of the abyss, which is very different from the Millennium covenant empire. "

"So which Empire should we report this path to?" Tina asked, "the nearest one here should be the Millennium covenant Empire, but they are guarding three abyss paths. I'm afraid they can't transfer troops to come here? Secondly, the qainas empire is closer to here, but according to you, it is impossible for the qainas Empire to send troops here? "

"This magic laboratory is originally the of the Millennium covenant empire..."

As soon as Andre spoke, he was interrupted by Sean: "why report?"

"But if we don't report it, we can't hold a passage to the underground world with our military strength." Andre was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "according to the regulations of the Peace Council, if you find loopholes and abyss paths, shouldn't you report them to the nearest Empire?"

"What do I care about the rules of the Peace Council?" Sean glanced. "There are many places where this channel can be used. Who says we can't control it. Just open the channel again, and then reverse the operation of the axis transmission magic array, and set the main array on our side, then the initiative of this channel will fall in our hands. "

Hearing Sean's whimsical words, everyone looked surprised.

"It's impossible!" Cecilia's surprise soon calmed down, and then turned into a questioning look. "The biggest feature of the axis transmission magic array is to pump out all the rotating axis energy of the magic array, and its casting is completely controlled by the main array. The secondary array here has been automatically annihilated, and the energy has been pumped out. We can't control it at all."

"In fact, there is a way." Sean said, "as long as we re depict a guiding magic array here, open a gap in the closed channel, and then we continue to pour energy into the gap, so that the main array opposite continues to absorb energy until it explodes beyond the critical point, the sealed magic array will completely fail, and the path of the abyss will be opened again."

Hearing Sean's words, Cecilia immediately brightened her eyes and looked a little eager to try.

But Sean knew very well that what he said was very simple, but it was not as simple as he thought to actually operate it. Just calculating the energy output of the guided magic array is a huge project, not to mention how huge it is as the power source to support the continuous operation of the whole magic array. Even if these two points can be solved, the continuous input of energy is definitely an amazing expense, but it is much simpler than the former two.

Just have money.

However, this technology can never be realized before the power source of the magic guide has been developed. In the game, the battle between the surface and underground worlds is also the main content of the fourth expansion. In terms of the timetable of this world, it will be ten years later.

Sean began to feel that it was necessary to accelerate the development of scientific research in the world.

The underground world is a real treasure house.
