Chapter 521： Sanctuary

I saw the Psionic Flame again today, and he was a little bit shocked. If he can really repair the dimensional roaming terminal and reach other star systems in the "Lost Land", what if the equipment there is also damaged during the battle and needs to be reactivated? Isn't he in danger of being raped?

Freya looked at him with a gloomy side face, thinking that he was sorry for the guards of the statues on the ground. From behind, he put his arms around his back, blindfolded his eyes, and said "acceptably": "You are sorry for them. Is it? Let’s do it... Can Freya be your eyes?"

Tang Fang laughed dumbly, grabbing her hand and taking it away from his face: "Silly girl, who did you learn this from?"

She said seriously: "Sister Kleiya, she said that your task is to protect us, and our task is to take care of you. She also said that girls should look like girls and tell me not to follow Zhou Ai."

"Ah... what to do? What to do?" She suddenly looked like a little girl who accidentally broke her beloved glass, she was about to cry in a hurry.

"what happened?"

"Sister Kleiya said that I didn't want me to tell others, I... I accidentally... oh, oh... what should I do?"

"Puff haha." Tang Fang couldn't help laughing. He said to his heart that Claire, who is usually short with Zhou Ai's eldest sister, can wear a skirt well. It turned out that he had such a careful thought.

"You're still laughing." Freya looked at him angrily.

"Okay, I don't laugh...I don't laugh" Even though he said so, the smile in his eyes was still strong.

Freya muttered two cheeks, stomped angrily, and said loudly, "You swear, you are not allowed to tell others, especially Sister Zhou Ai."

Tang Fang raised his **** and said to the sky: "Okay. I swear not to say." He lowered his head and looked at the little girl, and said, "This will always be done."

Freya nodded, hugged his face and gave a quick kiss. Then fled to the distance like a kid who had just finished naughty, the fluttering clothes brought a hint of life to the empty hall.

He wiped off the saliva sticking to his cheeks. He smiled helplessly, ignored her, walked to the psychic flame of the Dimensional Roaming Terminal, stretched out his hands, and let the light thread gently adhere to the back of his hand.

The upper diamond crystal bursts with a dazzling light, and the blue streamer spreads around the texture of the "door" building, floor, and wall, one after another e runes light up, and the roof crystals sprinkle star-like light. . Illuminate the deep hall several kilometers long.

The left and right beams of the dimensional "door" bounced with blue-blue arcs, and as time and space twisted in the middle, a light curtain of undulating water gradually spread.

At this time, two "Cupids" flew to a touch platform in another area of ​​the main hall and connected to the control hub. After about a few seconds, there was a rumbling noise from the ground, about 500 meters behind the dimensional roaming terminal. The floor was retracted and separated downward, and a row of huge crystal pipe arrays slowly rose.

The e rune corresponding to the roof lights up, and the plate is divided into two from the center. Retracted into the ceiling mezzanine, the huge crystal pipe continues to rise, passing through the huge skylight. It is flush with the roof of the main hall.

The metal structure at the root of the crystal pipe array stretches out to form a ladder. The lower part is joined with the floor, and the upper part is a row of electronic devices. The grid is interlaced, the light flows, and various epsilon symbols swim on the crystal screen.

At the same time, Tang Fang received a message from "Cupid" and started thinking. Behemoth appeared on the low-altitude orbit of "Tikal", and 2 Hercules transport planes and 5 medical transport planes flew out of the "Pocket". Slowly landed on the roof of the main hall, a dozen of them will contain cesium minerals and iridium-containing minerals. And a few other unrefined minerals, such as palladium and platinum, were dumped into the floating car pocket of the crystal pipe and slowly slid down.

A few king worms were lowered by the folds of Behemoth, and some sealed jars were unloaded on the edge of the "ecological stand" at the entrance of the main hall, which contained the components needed to maintain the operation of the main hall.

About 5 minutes later, the rune gate from the main hall to the warehouse opened, 15 "Cupids" and several unmanned engineering vehicles were added to the processes of transporting components, monitoring the refining progress, cutting and integrating, and embedding the core.

The underground part of the main hall is like a modular automatic production line, awakening from the silence and slowly running.

As a vassal facility of the "Ashtolando" system, it covers all the processes required to manufacture the dimensional locks and dimensional roaming terminals, such as the refining of various mineral resources, material cutting, deep processing, data writing, assembly, etc.

Those unmanned engineering vehicles compressed the zero element fluid into a kind of dark blue square, and injected the energy input window into the reactor built on the base of the main hall, and then turned to an attached hall next to the warehouse to arrange the dark gold pieces neatly. The polymer is pulled into the position of the roaming terminal in the central dimension of the main hall.

One "Cupid" stopped the monitoring operation, flew to the back of the unmanned engineering work vehicle, stretched out its arm, the sleek crystal structure at the front end changed for a while, drilled a probe structure, and pressed it on the central node of the dark gold polymer. Light spreads rapidly on the surface of the polymer like a crack, and finally becomes a whole.

"Cupid"'s right eye shot out a light blue light curtain, and countless epsilon symbols flowed quickly, forming a rune ribbon to merge into the polymer core chipset.

In the same way, the 27 polymers in the rear bucket of the unmanned engineering operation vehicle were operated once, and the "Cupid" stepped back two steps. Those polymers were slowly raised from the bucket and assembled in a certain order to form a cube of about 3 meters. Rotating clockwise in midair, emitting slight energy fluctuations.

Tang Fang walked to the "door" and looked at the cube floating in the air. No, it should be called a dimensional lock. He didn't expect it to be in this form. According to his idea, it should be more complicated.

Emma quickly corrected his point. The dimensional lock seems to have a simple cubic structure, but it is far from it, because the universe he lives in can only express the physical form in three dimensions. If it is placed in the subspace network constructed by the dimensional roaming terminal, Dimensional locks will show different forms.

Tang Fang thinks it’s better for him to shut up. He is very afraid of Emma’s popular science education on the issue of multi-dimensionality, which would be no less than a torture to him. Fortunately, “Cupid” sent a message in time and asked him to specify A damaged dimensional lock in the subspace network was replaced, so he quickly asked Emma to call out the dimensional lock topology.

Because the "Ashtolando" system is similar to the human Internet mechanism in its overall structure, there are some master nodes, and these master nodes are responsible for important "routing" functions, and it is difficult to support a dimensional lock. It is often necessary to combine multiple dimensional locks into clusters to form a dimensional lock matrix, which undoubtedly increases the consumption of raw materials.

According to "Cupid" calculations, the resources in Behemoth's body are not enough to repair the entire network. Tang Fang had already prepared for this only to make up for the needs of the overall department. Emma had also made such an estimate at the time, and even if the local network is repaired, the "Ashtorando" hall of the star system within this range may not be preserved intact to support the accurate transmission of biological entities.

Of course, this is not a big problem, because once the "Ashtolando" system is repaired, even if it is only partial. The dimensional storm raging in the multidimensional space will slowly dissipate, making it possible to sail at war speed based on war speed engines.

Therefore, he must be focused and choose a roadmap to get the most value with the least consumption.

There are many star systems on the periphery of "Lost Land". He doesn't know which star system contains the information to unlock the Protoss technology or the rich legacy of Ipsyron. He can only unlock it based on the original "Solna" The intelligence obtained in the obsolete observatory of the Observatory has designated the three star systems "Gamma-3", "Delta-5" and "Alpha-7" as key restoration targets.

quickly. "Cupid" responded, "Gamma-3" and "Delta-5" two star systems can be tried, but "Alpha-7" is too far away from "Omega-2". There are too many nodes to be repaired, which is difficult to achieve with the current amount of resources.

He seriously recalled what was in "Alpha-7"... a 3000 km-class space facility used to build the Ypsilon battleship.

His face is a bit ugly. "Alpha-7" is the best-preserved and possibly the most valuable of these three star systems.

But the situation is better than others. No matter how unhappy he is, he can only accept this reality and order "Cupid" to follow the "Omega-2"-"Gamma-3"-"Delta-5" route for partial repair.

"Cupid" synchronizes this instruction to each individual. Then push the dimensional lock to enter the "door" structure. Disappeared in the shimmering light curtain.

At the same time, the psionic flame projected a light curtain outward. The progress of "Cupid" in the subspace tunnel is displayed in real time, and the unmanned engineering vehicle once again enters the attached hall next to the warehouse, and pulls out another batch of dark gold polymers for making dimensional locks.

It seemed that the repair work would take a long time, so he hesitated whether to return to the shuttle to rest for a while, and wait for the time to come again.

At this moment, Freya, who was walking around the hall and playing, suddenly called him to go over and walked over.

Not far in front of the girl were some statue guards. She was squatting on the ground, picking something out of a broken elbow. When Tang Fang walked over, she finally completed the task, picking up something like a necklace. Out.

Her little face was red, and it seemed that she had exerted a lot of effort just now. Hearing the footsteps behind her, Xianbao seemed to show him the thing.

At the bottom of the necklace is a long prismatic crystal, which reflects soft stars under the light, which is very charming.

He thought that this might be a weapon, because Freya picked it out from the palm of the arm, intending to treat it cautiously, but it was still slow. The daredevil urged the body to inject current into the crystal like an anklet.

The stars exploded, and a starry ocean filled the surroundings, colorful and truly beautiful.

Tang Fang was taken aback, until he realized that it was all right, and then he took a long breath and reprimanded her for being reckless. If it was a mini bomb, wouldn't she let her die.

Freya tilted her head and said how could such a beautiful necklace be a bomb? If it were her, she would not be willing to make it into a bomb and destroy it. What a pity.

"Don't try to reason with women, it will turn yourself into a fool."

Tang Fang remembered a sentence he had heard before, so he shut his mouth altogether, thinking that since the crystal necklace was just an upgraded version of the "fairy stick", she would just let her play with it.

I didn't know this idea before it fell, the light dimmed, and stardust intertwined in the midair a series of realistic holographic figures.

Of course, it may be inappropriate to use human shadows, because they are all Ypsilon.

Freya saw the appearance of the Ypsilon for the first time, and her small mouth expanded into a round o shape. Because of her emotions, her posture while holding the crystal necklace was a bit unstable, causing the image to shake. Slight distortion appears.

Tang Fang walked over, grabbed her hand from behind, and looked forward with a serious face.

It's different from the girl's memoir that Nami Sung saw. This image involves many Ypsilon people, hundreds of them. They wore robes made of unknown materials, with the same drawings on them, or totems more appropriately, giving people a sense of solemnity and solemnity.

An Ipsyron who looked very old wearing a purple crown gave a vessel woven of herbs to a couple, and then bowed to a mass of hurricane-like material far away, behind People followed suit, even the couple was no exception.

At this time. Tang Fang finally saw the object in the vessel. It was a small baby, wrapped in a layer of translucent flowing cloud-like colored material, falling into a sweet sleep.

He looked up at the group of colorful hurricanes hanging in the air, and found that it was very similar to the flowing clouds surrounding a baby. What's even stranger was that the hurricane was in a static state, like a colorful torch.

Freya watched the hurricane and murmured, "It's so beautiful..."

The image freezes, and the spot shakes. Severe distortion occurred, the crystal in the middle of the necklace became dim, and the surrounding stars slowly disappeared.

She was surprised and said: "Why is there no more?"

Tang Fang frowned. Shen said: "Perhaps because the data stored in the crystal was damaged during the battle."

The crystal necklace was obtained by Freya from a broken arm by the guard of the statue. Inside it is the image of the Ypsilon people. So many people gathered together, it looked like some kind of gratitude ceremony.

The moment he saw the mass of the hurricane material, a word "Luyad Harkona" flashed in his mind. If he were to find a human term to explain it, it should mean "Sanctuary".

This feeling is very strange, I know it is "Sanctuary", but I don't understand why it is sacred. What does it represent? He understands Ypsilon characters. But I don't understand Ypsilon culture, which is really contradictory.

And that baby. What is the origin? What does it have to do with "Sanctuary"?

Another question, since the crystal necklace is a relic of the Ypsilon, why did it appear in the hands of the statue guard? If this unmanned combat aircraft was ordered to protect the necklace, it means that there should be Ypsilons in the main hall at that time, but their corpses. Where did you go?

Thinking of the "Lost Place", the "Eye of the Storm" in the center, the glory of the Ypsilons, and the epic creatures and the genes of the Ypsilons contained in the right arm of the Brotherhood members, these doubts lie It's like layers of mist, unpredictable.

Freya shook her little hand in front of him, and asked worriedly: "Tang Fang, what's the matter with you?"

"No...nothing, just a little weird."

Pulling away her little hand, looking around, she found that there were no other clues, so she turned and walked to the exit of the hall, decided to go back to the shuttle and rest for a while, but did not sleep because of the arrival of Bai Hao, Nehemiah and others. Well, now is the time to make up for sleep.

Freya followed him and asked as he walked: "What about this necklace? Can I wear it?"

Tang Fang thought for a while, took it from her hand into the storage bag of the harsh environment protective clothing, and said: "It is not good to do this, it is disrespectful to the deceased, and it is very unlucky."

She said to her heart that the guards of the statues were not humans, and the Ypsilons might not necessarily die, but after thinking about it, let's forget it, because she thinks this is fine, and Tang Fang will buy her better in the future.

…………

Six hours later, the communication system of the Silvermoon Shuttle issued a short and urgent prompt tone. Tang Fang woke up from a deep sleep, checked the content and found that it was a message sent by "Cupid", saying that goal 1 was successfully achieved, "Omi The subspace tunnel connecting "Gamma-2" to "Gamma-3" has been repaired, the dimensional storm is slowly dissipating, and the dimensional roaming terminal can be used for transmission in about half an hour.

He quickly woke up Freya, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, put on protective clothing, and returned to the hall on the same path.

The refining of minerals is still going on. "Cupid" and the unmanned engineering vehicle are tirelessly circulating the process. According to the news from the medical transport aircraft, the mineral reserves in Behemoth's body have dropped by half, about 5 It will be exhausted after more than an hour.

Instructed Emma to carefully monitor the repair progress of the subspace tunnel. He switched on the psionic flame again, and according to the feedback from the dimensional lock, waited for the dimensional storm to dissipate completely set the teleportation target to The main hall of "Ashtolando" of "Ma-3", and then walked to the "door" of the dimensional roaming terminal, looked at the light curtain and was silent, then summoned a machine gunner and ordered to enter the "door" .

About 5 minutes later, the screen projected by Psionic Flame showed that the transmission was completed. He tried to contact the machine gunner, but found that there was no response, and the number of units in the Terran base did not decrease. This shows that the machine gunner is still alive and now The prescribed position exceeds the limit distance that the interstellar system can sense.

He looked back at Freya and asked, "Are you afraid?"

The girl took his hand and asked puzzledly: "Why are you afraid?"

In her inner world, as long as she can hold his hand like this, there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Let's go."

He felt that he was inferior to a little girl, so he laughed at himself, put on a mask, and stepped up the stairs, letting the dark blue light curtain drown the two one after another, as a feeling of dizziness came, he suddenly felt before his eyes. With one flower, I lost consciousness.
