The construction of the camp must be done slowly. Although Gao Wen has written a lot of systems and plans, and even has a draft of the plan for the next expansion of the camp and the improvement of it into a permanent residence, these things are not It cannot be achieved overnight - considering the knowledge level of most people in this era, the literacy rate of civilians and serfs is zero. Knights can only read and write at a basic level, and warriors (non-serf soldiers) trained by their families can only write. I need to know my own name and figures within one hundred, so many things must be advanced slowly.
What's more, there are no manpower here, and the current Cecil Territory cannot support many manpower.
With a deep awareness of this fact, Gawain returned to his tent and sat at his desk.
This desk can be said to be one of the few finished pieces of furniture that the team brought from Tanzania Town. It will still be a while before the carpenters use the wood obtained from the forest in the west to make the first batch of furniture. These days - the wood used to make furniture cannot be as makeshift as a simple wooden house, so having a table is Gawain's greatest benefit as the lord of this place.
There is a pile of paper spread out slightly messily on the desk, which is filled with various things: construction plans, material statistics, camp sketches, and a rough future construction plan. Including walls, docks, residential areas, production areas, farmland, etc. are all arranged on it. On one side of the desk are ink, dip pens, pencils and a wooden ruler, while on the other side of the desk is an amber.
Gawain stepped forward and took Amber's collar and lifted her aside. The half-elf girl was not awake when she was picked up, but she screamed in surprise as soon as she was lifted halfway. Then it turned into a shadow and disappeared into Gawain's hands, and re-condensed his body not far away.
"You scared me!!" Amber finally came to his senses and stared at Gawain with anger, "I thought there was an earthquake!"
Gawain looked at this guy and felt... Angry and funny: "I asked you to look at the things in the tent, and you're just like watching the door?"
Hubo said with righteousness and righteousness: "My whole body is devoted to these ghost talismans of yours!"
Gawain glanced down at the table, then glanced up at Amber: "You're actually drooling on it?!"
"Who can control me when I'm asleep?" Amber muttered, then looked at Gawain curiously as he sat down at the desk, and then came over again, "What are you going to do? Are you going to start drawing these ghost symbols again?"
"These are not ghost drawings, these are plans, regulations, and construction drawings." Gawain was troubled by this unlearned half-elf. "These things are the basics of the camp—that's why I let you look at them."< /p>
Hu Bo picked up a piece of paper with symbols and numbers and looked at it for a long time, curling her lips: "What a mess, I can't understand it at all."
Gawain looked at the other party helplessly. : "You took it backwards."
Hubo looked innocent: "I have never seen these drawings of yours before. They are simply worse than the magicians."The formula is difficult, how can I understand the pros and cons! ”
“So you need to learn, knowledge is very important. "Gawain sighed. He was not surprised at all that Amber couldn't understand these things: he was a little thief who had never received an orthodox education since he was a child. He learned a set of sneaky skills under the step-by-step instruction of his adoptive father and master. Coupled with an unexplained shadow affinity talent, she is enough to wander around and take risks in this world. For her, learning culture has neither the conditions nor the necessity, so Amber's cultural level is actually only enough to be able to carry out It was just basic reading and writing, and the drawings he drew not only contained a bunch of weird nouns, but also contained various data and shorthand marks. Even if he threw this thing to Hetty, he would probably be confused...
Thinking of Hetty, Gawain looked into Amber's eyes: "I asked you to learn more from Rebecca or Hetty in your free time, but it seems that you didn't take it to heart at all. "
"That's boring, and I don't like dealing with nobles," Amber rolled her eyes, "Besides, your beautiful great-great-granddaughter is so busy, how can she have time to talk to me? . Rebecca is more relaxed, but she always wants to throw a big fireball at me. "
Gawain looked at the other party with a half-smile: "I don't like dealing with nobles - but I think you are quite relaxed when dealing with me. "
Amber told the truth: "I always feel that you don't look like a noble..."
"You are also far from the elf in my impression. "Gawain said, and began to sort out the papers in front of him and put them aside. At the same time, he took out the crystals and spread them out on the table one by one.
Amber muttered: "I He's just a half-elf, and he was picked up by humans. How do I know what a serious elf is... eh? Aren't you going to write anything today? Do you want to study these stones? ”
After confirming that these crystals had no magic power and Gawain did not intend to sell them for money, these things were downgraded from crystals to the level of stones in Amber’s eyes.
High Wen looked at the half-elf with a headache: "I would be very grateful if you could be quiet for a while. ”
Amber: “No, it’s not interesting at all. Just study your stones.” ”
As she spoke, her body swayed and she gradually disappeared as if she melted into the air. However, through the weak perception of the breath, Gawain was sure that this guy was still standing in the same place, and was continuing to stare at him curiously.
Forget it, as long as she can stop BB, let her go
Gawain focused on the crystal in front of him.
A paragraph. It can be said that there has been no progress in the research on these crystals for a long time.
He took out the crystals more than once on the road and observed them carefully. When he was in Tanzan Town, he even asked Hetty to use magic resonance to try to detect them. Inside the crystals, but there is no progress, especially the magic resonance - Hetty admitted that these crystals have nothing to do with magic items at all, and the magic power acts on them.There is no ripple at all inside, just like facing a stone.
But seven hundred years ago, Gawain Cecil treasured it in a mithril safe, and also purchased crystals for permanent preservation services in the mithril treasure house. These may be some inconspicuous things. Stone?
Gawain can only boldly assume that these crystals are definitely special, but their specialness is not magical.
Or it may be that current magical theories cannot explain them.
He put aside the obviously fragmented crystals and picked up the intact one.
Those broken crystals have exposed part of the inner crystal structure, but it is difficult to accurately observe it with the naked eye. When Hetty's magic laboratory is built and the crystal resonator is available, we can try to analyze it from the physical structure. Check it out, and this complete piece... makes people feel uneasy to mess with it.
God knows whether the crystal resonator will destroy some kind of "information" inside the crystal.
He lifted the crystal and observed it through the light.
On the crystalline and beautiful ridges, you can see the light swimming around. As the incident angle changes, each side and each line of it shows various colors and light structures. Come.
This is an extremely precise crystal in terms of geometry. Its processing technology should be very superb, and when testing the broken crystals, Gawain has verified that these crystals have amazing strength—— Extremely hard and unlike ordinary brittle crystals that break easily, they can even easily carve scratches into mithril ingots without any wear on the tip.
This made him wonder how the four crystal fragments broke like that.
After observing the sun for a while, Gawain tried to cut his finger again and smear a little blood on the surface of the crystal before the wound healed itself.
Of course, it’s useless.
I vaguely heard the suppressed laughter of a certain half-elf...
After shielding the amber, Gawain held the crystal and fell into deep thought, thinking about what happened in this world. There are really more and more things I don't understand - crystals of unknown origin, memories that have disappeared inexplicably, a "sun" that is suspected of being a gas giant planet, but its properties are very different from normal gas giant planets, and those things that should still be hanging on There is a "monitoring satellite" in the sky, whose purpose and origin are unknown...
Just when his thoughts drifted to the "monitoring satellite", he suddenly felt a slight heat coming from his hand.
At first he thought it was an illusion, but then the crystal trembled slightly, and the light blue light in its core also lit up slightly.
Heat, tremors, and light, these three points together cannot be an illusion.
Gawain looked at the crystal in astonishment, but before he picked up the pen to record the changes in the crystal, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind——
It was a voice, but more It was like information pouring directly into the spiritual world, and he "heard" it.Content:
"The mental frequency is being reset and the connection is being re-established."
Immediately afterwards, he felt that his consciousness was in a trance.
It was as if something suddenly intervened in his thoughts, and some "data flow" that did not belong to him came in, but the data flow was not an intruder, because after a brief period of confusion, After that, he felt an inexplicable familiarity with it.
These "familiar data flows" quickly produced corresponding clear things in the mind.
Some pictures began to appear in his mind.
That is the scene looking down on the earth from high altitude.
For the first moment, what came to Gawain’s mind was neither surprise nor shock, but a thought.
"Holy shit, am I going to heaven again?!"
Cold sweat flowed down his forehead immediately.
But he soon discovered that the situation was not as he imagined. He was still sitting in the chair well, and his soul had not left the body and was pulled back to the sky to serve as a synchronous satellite. Everything about him His perception is still normal and his body is under control, but there is just an extra picture in his mind.
This made him feel calmer for a moment, and then he became excited and focused on the picture in his mind.
It was only then that he noticed that there was something very strange about the picture. It was not at all what he was familiar with.
The picture became blurry, and it showed a weird color distribution as if a layer of filter had been added. It was like an image formed by a thermal imager and was smeared into a mass. It could only be roughly judged. Structures such as mountains, forests, and rivers, and this vague and weird picture is still limited to a small range.
That is the north side of the Dark Mountains, the perimeter of the New Cecil Territory's pioneering land. From above, you can vaguely see the White Water River, the western forest, and even a little shadow of the camp.
