Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 478
[Chapter 476 Take the Steps of Exploration]
Taran El, an outstanding elven polymath, an expert in the fields of mathematics, mechanics, and natural history, and the winner of four lifetime honors awarded by the Academy of Truth.
A person who studies knowledge, a person who is conscientious, a person who can stay in the laboratory without sleep, and a person who makes Lucrezia worry about sudden death at the research site at any time.
Now, in front of everyone, the erudite scholar declared that he was helpless against the geometric light body falling from the sky.
Lucrezia raised her head, her gaze passed the crystal ball in front of her, and she fell on the opposite window. The magnificent brilliance was filling in from that direction. Even at midnight, the entire sea area seemed to be bathed in “sunlight”. And among the brilliance, the luminous geometric body like a hill is still floating quietly on the sea surface, and its flat light wall is like a cliff, straddling the sky and the sea.
Another small boat crossed the radiant sea and headed towards the interior of the luminous geometry, preparing to pick up the research team that had completed its duty near the “Stone Ball”.
Lucrezia sighed, looked away from the window, and looked at the table at hand – a strange, dusty sphere was placed on the shelf on the table.
The surface of the sphere was rough, like a rock, with weird undulations and irregular patterns all over the surface. It was not attractive, but it was filled with an indescribable sense of mystery.
In the center of that huge geometric light body floating on the sea surface was a strange “stone ball” with a diameter of ten meters, and the one in front of Lucrecia’s eyes… was a shrunken and exact replica of the stone ball.
It is almost the only “achievement” after a long period of research by a large group of experts and scholars.
“Master Taran El has returned to Lightwind Harbor to rest now. Strictly speaking, he was ‘tied’ back to Lightwind Harbor by his students,” Lucrezia shook her head and said to the person on the opposite side of the crystal ball. The elder brother said, “If he doesn’t rest anymore, he may die suddenly outside—as an elf, it is too young to die suddenly at the age of five hundred.
“When he left, he looked very frustrated, because this ‘heavenly thing’ is beyond our understanding, whether it is the luminous area around it, or the nature of the sphere in the center, it is a mystery to us.
“The researchers scraped some samples from the ‘stone ball’, but the analysis results showed that they seemed to be fine stone powder. There was no progress in the exploration of the inside of the stone ball-all methods failed, including extraordinary Power, that thing seems to be wrapped in a dense ‘shell’, hiding all its secrets, and at least until now, we haven’t made up our minds to conduct a destructive…’test’ on it.
” For so long, we only reached a consensus, that is… this huge geometric light body should indeed be something that fell off from the rune circle around Vision 001. In order to draw a conclusion, they carefully observed the gap on the edge of anomaly 001, and found that the missing part coincided with the ‘geometric light body’. “
Lucrecia said a lot in one breath. Obviously, she has accumulated a lot of boredom during this time, and Tirian has been a good listener. She didn’t interrupt the whole process when her sister was talking, until Luke After Recia’s voice fell, he slowly opened his mouth: “Has it been confirmed that it is the part that fell off from vision 001… Lucy, my father had warned the Church of Four Gods about this before, and he said’ The sun’ may be heading for a recession. “
“I’ve heard about it,” Lucrezia nodded lightly. “No one dares to take the warning from ‘Captain Duncan’ seriously, although most people will not take it seriously after hearing this warning.” The first reaction was the tension and fear of the Homeless…”
Tirian twitched the corners of his mouth, as a person who often met with “Duncan Abnomar” these days and had seen his father’s new methods with his own eyes, he at this time It’s not easy to comment, so I can only change the subject: “Then do you have any follow-up plans? Questions about the ‘sun’…”
“Can there be any plans? Throw this big rock ball back into the sky? Restoring it in the sun’s rune circle? Lucrecia shrugged, “I am afraid that only the ancient kingdom of Crete knows how to restore the sun in the sky.” After a moment of silence, Lucrezia suddenly asked again: “Does father know about my ‘research’ here? ” ” ”I didn’t tell him,” Tirian shook his head. “I don’t talk too much without asking for your opinion… What?” You want to ask him for help? “
Tirian fell silent.
Lucrezia obviously hesitated for a moment, as if she was really moved, but soon she shook her head: “I’ll think about it—this kind of thing, Father may not be of much help, and… well, I’m just a little afraid of him.” “Actually,
he’s really easy to talk to now,” Tirian laughed, “but if you don’t like it, then I won’t.” I have intervened, but I made it clear in advance that if I don’t say it or not, this news may reach his ears at some point. After all, he has already established contact with the church and the city-state. If he really If you are interested, then I dare not stop you.”
Lucrezia waved her hands irritably, this “Sea Witch” shrouded in a mysterious halo in the eyes of outsiders has never concealed her emotions in front of her family: “I got it, I got it—don’t talk about it, when will I get the spirit world lens I mentioned earlier?”
Tirian: “…”
Two seconds later, Lucrecia cried out dissatisfied A sharp voice came from the crystal ball: “Did you forget again?!?!”
…
“Tirion, you don’t look very good.”
Early in the morning, Duncan came to Southport, and when he saw Tirian’s expression After being a little tired, I couldn’t help but say something.
Tirian rubbed his forehead and sighed helplessly: “There are too many things to worry about recently.”
He is not an excuse. Fleet, but then again… the impact of being read to my sister’s high-intensity for two hours on her complexion is obviously a factor that cannot be ignored.
But Tirian soon bypassed this slightly awkward topic, he didn’t bring up Lucrezia’s matter, but straightened his expression: “I called you so early today to tell you—diving The device is ready.”
Duncan raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: “So fast?”
“After considering that the passengers don’t need to breathe, many preparations can be accelerated,” Tirian nodded, “And the diving that was secretly built by the former Frost government The device is built based on the blueprint of the queen’s era, although there are many improvements, the basic principle has not changed much, if you just want to understand its operation method, it is actually a very simple matter.”
Duncan looked at Tirian for a while, then looked away and nodded in satisfaction: “Very well, take me.” “
You want to start right away?” Tirian was a little surprised, “We can do some more tests, today I invite You came here just to let you see for yourself…”
Duncan interrupted the other party: “You should have done some tests, right?” “
… A little bit,” Tirian hesitated, “After completing the system verification, Last night, I arranged for two undead sailors to dive tens of meters for a short time, mainly to confirm the operation process and working status of the submersible, but nothing went wrong…” “Enough,” Duncan nodded, turned around
and Walking towards the warehouse leading to the underground facility, “Let’s just assume that I will complete the follow-up testing process myself. Anyway, the official deep diving operation will still be carried out by me.” Tirian was stunned, and could only quickly
follow Duncan’s footsteps, and on the way to the facility in a hurry, he couldn’t help feeling a little doubtful in his heart.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion… He always felt that his father looked a little preoccupied today, and this urgent look was different from before.
It was as if he had suddenly noticed some clues, or touched some huge secret, and he was driven by an emotion of eagerness to unravel the mystery and explore the truth.
And this hasty look… gave Tirian a vague sense of familiarity.
The burly figure in a black overcoat hurriedly walked in front, and Tirian also walked quickly, desperately following behind. This feeling, as if many years ago. When some ancient relic clues are found, when a brand-new shipping route appears on the sea chart, when news about border areas and mysterious visions suddenly spreads to the civilized world, that’s what my father at that time would do. This is what he looked like when he was about to embark on a long voyage. Long-term yellowed memories uncontrollably surfaced from the depths of his mind, and the scene of following his father to set sail in the past emerged in front of his eyes. In the overlapping images, Tirian’s footsteps subconsciously slowed down.
The latter looked at the back of the former, and during this step-by-step pursuit, he suddenly noticed the source of this familiarity——
Duncan stopped, turned his head and looked this way suspiciously.
“Tirion, what are you in a daze for? Follow up.”
Tirian was taken aback, and hurriedly agreed as he stepped forward: “Ah… oh, good father!”
Duncan turned around and continued to walk forward, He didn’t pay much attention to Tirian’s reaction just now.
Because a sense of urgency to explore this world surged up again, constantly urging him.
This sense of urgency stems from what he gained when he explored the brass key yesterday, and from the corner of the world’s mysterious veil that was suddenly unveiled—a
huge spaceship that crashed into this world in a certain lost age, called “blasphemy.” Archetypes, ancient civilization creations from hidden history, deep mysteries that even great scholars like Morris have never touched.
There are too many unknown things, and the occasional clues make people realize that the secrets of this world are entangled, like layers of curtains.
Therefore, any opportunity to explore the truth of the world is very precious.
Explorers should be.
