Chapter 1586: dragon in alien land

Name:Sword of Daybreaker Author:Yuan Tong
When the night fell on the earth again, the stars shrouded the four fields, with the artificial lights on the surface lit up one after another, the bright stars also ran through the whole night like a long river. It was an exceptionally clear summer night, and every star in the sky seemed to It is much clearer than before, and the refreshing night wind is blowing from the plain and wilderness, gently stirring this quiet world.

Gawain left the room, and he came alone to a terrace near the study, enjoying this moment of leisure, looking up at the long river of stars in the sky.

He can't remember how many days he has not been so relaxed. He is always tense, entangled in various vortices, like a compressed spring, accumulating strength for the future, and In this perpetually tense state, he felt as if he had forgotten what "relaxation" felt like, but at this moment, when looking up at the sky on a peaceful summer night, he finally felt the long-lost relaxation.

A familiar aura quietly appeared in his perception at this moment. Gawain didn't have to look back to know that Amber was coming to him again. He didn't look back, but only saw a petite figure from the corner of his eye from the shadow fissure. He jumped out, jumped to the balcony railing next to him three or two times, sat on it in a posture that looked quite thrilling to others, and swayed slightly with one leg outside.

"Looking at the stars again?" Amber turned her head and glanced at Gao Wen, those amber eyes gleamed in the night, and the corner of her mouth seemed to have a little smile, "It's good, I haven't seen you for a long time. You ran out like this to see the stars."

Gawain didn't speak for a while, just looked up at a special direction in the night sky. There, there was a special star, it was so bright that all the stars around it seemed to be overshadowed, and the light it released was pale. The yellow light shone slightly outward in the night sky, looking at it like a cluster of distant candles, Gawain watched it quietly, and after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly broke the silence softly: "What can you see?"

Amber also raised his head and looked in the direction Gawain was looking at. I don't know when, a thin shadow had already enveloped her like a cloak, and a long dark hair like night was floating slightly behind her. She looked at her. In the night sky, the shadow of "Ao" is reflected in the amber eyes: "A distant star, but it disturbs the world under our feet with its ubiquitous influence... To be honest, I didn't really realize it until recently. How special is that star called 'O' by the mages."

As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she wanted to distinguish a very subtle shadow from the darkness around "Ao", but after a while she shook her head and sighed slightly: "Unfortunately, we Can't see the 'flowing fire' that is flying towards Ao."

"Compared to a star, that piece of debris is too small, and the most advanced observation equipment on Loren planet cannot find its trace at the optical level," Gawain said slowly, "not to mention that it will Influenced by the radiance of 'O'."

Amber didn't say anything for a while, and didn't know what he was thinking. It wasn't until after a long time that he suddenly said: "You said... Is it really a coincidence that the piece of debris flew to 'Ao'?"

Gao Wen turned his head slightly and asked her back, "What do you think?"

Amber shook his head: "I don't know... Hetty thinks this is a coincidence, because there is not enough evidence to support the existence of 'navigation' signs in that piece of debris, and theoretically the 'god' on the Noi spaceship should not know at all The predicament we encountered, the disintegration of his spaceship happened a year ago, and at that time the magic tide observation device was still a blueprint. How could the 'God of Noi' make the decision to hit 'Ao' in advance?

"But Rebecca felt that the debris consciously flew to 'Ao', on the one hand because its impact time was too coincidental and the flight trajectory was too special, on the other hand because the 'Noy' when the spaceship disintegrated God' has come to the vicinity of Loren, it is possible for him to observe that there is a problem with the planet of Loren at the last moment, but at that time he has no time and no way to warn anyone, and at that time we have begun to communicate with promises. Yiren negotiated the construction of an observation device, so he chose to let his wreckage rush to the sun... Perhaps, just to bet on a one in ten thousand chance."

"In fact, it's not even 1/10,000," Gawain said slowly, "If there was no information provided by Omega in time, we would never have known about this collision, and we would not have been prepared in advance. Within a few seconds of the occurrence, the magic tide observation device did not respond, then both us and the Noi people will miss this signal forever. This is a warning that is almost unsuccessful, and from a rational analysis, it is more like a coincidence."

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, then shook his head slightly: "But this time, I'm not going to think about this issue with rigorous rationality... I'd rather believe Rebecca's conjecture."

"It's rare to hear such words from your mouth, but everyone else thinks that you are a 'steel king' who will always only run with precision like a machine," Amber twitched the corners of his mouth, but the smile in his eyes was even stronger than before. Be obvious," but then again, the spacecraft launched by the Noi people a century ago eventually turned into a lamp that illuminated two civilizations at the end of the voyage... Although it sounds very touching, there is a slight error behind it. The fact that every step is irreversible, you say... In the end, what determines the fate of all of us is hard work or so-called luck?"

"Luck itself is an important part of the reason why civilization has developed so far. I never deny that a considerable part of us have relied on luck to get to where we are today," Gawain shook his head, "As an objective factor, 'luck' is a Undeniable, but 'luck' is no excuse for denying effort, what's the point of 'O' shining in the night sky if we simply don't have the ability to build a mob observation device or home star barrier?"

"...That's true," Amber touched his chin and nodded in agreement, "This reminds me of a proverb of the northern people, 'The losers hold on to their efforts, and the winners show their luck calmly. ', which sounds reasonable now."

Gawain smiled, and at this moment, another breath suddenly appeared in his perception. He followed the perception somewhat unexpectedly, but saw that the door of the terrace was being pushed open a little bit, and a wisp of light appeared in his perception. The faint golden light came into his eyes through the crack of the door, and then, a golden dome with beautiful and complex patterns on the surface squeezed through the door "probingly" and appeared in Gawain's eyes floating.

Gao Wen Amber: "…"

"Good evening." After a moment of awkward silence, a very calm greeting came from the golden dome, "The stars are very good today."

Amber stared dumbfounded at the golden dome floating in the air. After a long while, he finally couldn't help but exclaimed: "...So you can run by yourself?!"

"Yes," Enya shook the eggshell calmly, "I'm usually just too lazy to act on my own."

Gawain's eyes jumped, and then he vaguely guessed something: "Is there anything I need help?"

Enya didn't answer immediately, she just slowly floated to the edge of the terrace, as if she was watching the starlight Amber in the distance and hurriedly reminded: "Hey, be careful! Don't fall and break! "

"Is he in that direction now?" Enya completely ignored Amber's shouting, she just quietly looked at the starry sky for a long time before suddenly turning around and saying to Gawain, "I mean... Omega."

Gawain looked at the golden dome in front of him with a slightly strange expression: "Actually, I can't see what direction you are pointing at, but I guess you are referring to 'O', yes, Omega is in that direction, On a rocky planet rich in minerals."

"...It seems so far away," Enya sighed in her voice, "Even in my heyday, even if I wasn't bound by my thoughts, it might not be easy to fly that far... But compared to us and the Noi people The distance between them is only a short distance away.”

"For those who understand the universe for the first time, many things on the astronomical scale are incredible and challenge common sense. Our understanding of time, space and even everything needs to be reshaped in the starry sky, and this is exactly what's happening." One of the reasons rites exist. But now that you've got rid of that shackle, you can learn as much as you like about the stars if you want."

"It sounds really worth looking forward to..." Enya said slowly, then she paused for a few seconds before suddenly saying, "I want to ask you a favor..."



The hot day is over, and under a thin radioactive atmosphere, a great plain covered with dark brown rock is gradually shrouded in night, and the temperature on the plain will continue to decrease for the next few hours, until it crosses the freezing point until The clusters of peculiar obsidian-like minerals on the plain show purple light patterns at low temperatures, and with the interaction between the planet's magnetic field and the wind of high-energy particles near the star, the magnificent scene begins to spread from the sky at the end of the plain all the way. come over

It was an aurora of astonishing scale. The brilliance like endless layers of curtains covered most of the sky, and it continued to outline various magnificent shapes in the process of slowly drifting. Under the illumination of this extremely magnificent aurora, there were Some inconspicuous "little things" are moving fast.

A "Dragon Explorer" walker swayed its mechanical feet quickly, and the insect version of the arthropod structure made it smooth over the bumpy obstacles on the plain, it ran fast under the aurora, and then Suddenly, he stopped in front of a strangely colored stone. This little guy with a pitch-black outer shell circled the stone for half a circle, and then an alloy cutting claw that was vibrating at a high speed popped out of his body. A piece of sample was "pulled" from the stone, and it was stuffed into the sample storage compartment in the stomach, and then quickly ran to the next patrol coordinate.

At the same time as the young dragon explorer ran quickly to the distance, there was a slight buzzing sound from the night sky, a triangular pitch-black aircraft swiftly swept across the sky, and the signal lights on the surface of the aircraft were in the aurora. Curtains flashed rapidly in the background, and multiple sensors quickly scanned the terrain on the plains.

Below the triangular aircraft, at the southeastern end of the plain, an open-pit mine is running. Several mining machines are constantly digging and smashing the minerals stripped from the nearby mountains under the control of a high-performance self-discipline mechanism. The train full of ore is temporarily Speeding on the track, the preliminarily processed ore is transported to the smelting furnace not far away, and a road that is stronger and straighter than the temporary track extends from the mine to the foot of the mountain several kilometers away.

A solid cliff stood at the end of the road, and below the cliff were steel barriers and towers standing tall. The giant lighting installations on top of several towers were slowly turning in the night. When the interlaced lights swept across the surface of the barrier, the steel walls The huge text on it is particularly eye-catching in the night. It is the ancient dragon text, shining brightly in the fortress on this alien surface:

"Omega's Dragon's Nest"

At this moment, deep in the steel fortress, Omega's huge consciousness is running quietly in the newly adjusted server array.

On a platform near the central area, a huge dragon body made of machinery is sleeping quietly. It was a huge body that Omega built for himself in order to save energy. This body is in a dormant state at the moment. And the buildings nearby are Omega's current "thinking center".

The thick walls and bright lights blocked the desolation and darkness of the alien land outside the fortress at the moment, and the server arrays neatly arranged in the hall were humming and processing the data from countless terminal nodes. With the massive parameters returned, Omega senses that the detection nodes it releases are busy all over the planet, senses them to map terrain, collect specimens, explore minerals, sense the heat in the daytime area, and the darkness of night. The cold under the sky, and all this is the scenery he has never seen in his "hometown".

Every day, he can come into contact with new knowledge and see incredible scenery. His thinking thread no longer needs to deal with the useless tasks that day after day, but can use his computing power to "learn", "" In terms of "thinking" and "creation", although he is not very comfortable with his current thinking mode, he feels that... he should be happy now.

Of course, in addition to the incredible scenery, there are also incredible dangers on this desolate alien planet: special geological activities, atmospheric phenomena that need adaptation, and magical disturbances from "Ao", all of which have caused him to suffer more or less. Loss, in order to adapt to the environment here, the **** unit brought from the hometown has also undergone a transformation beyond recognition, and part of it has even been dismantled and rebuilt into the infrastructure in this lair, even his own The mighty bodies that were meticulously crafted have now proven to be poorly adapted to the planet's environment, but compared to the journey itself, these challenges are insignificant.

The server array hummed in the halls of mind, and Omega forked a thread, thinking about what he had seen and heard on this trip.

He does this once a day, because the creators once said that looking back is a key step in avoiding mistakes.

Omega thinks this sentence is very wise.

But this time, a signal call suddenly entered the main thread interrupted Omega's routine thinking today. The call signal came from "hometown", so he quickly turned his attention: "I'm listening, high Wen, friend."

"It's not me looking for you, it's another 'acquaintance'." Gawain's voice came from the communication signal, and then Omega felt a subtle "shift" in the communication signal, as if there was a new The consciousness directly intervened in the communication, and the next second, he heard a somewhat familiar voice:

"Hello Omega, long time no see."
