Gawain paid close attention to the picture that only he could see, and finally confirmed that what it showed was indeed the terrain centered on the current Cecil pioneering land and within a radius of about one hundred kilometers, and The operation he was once familiar with to adjust the distance of the viewing angle no longer works.
The screen is limited to this range and cannot be moved or zoomed.
And the original high-definition satellite view has become blurry and covered with strange color blocks.
What do those colors mean? Thermal imaging? Or some other kind of induction imaging?
Or... a simple malfunction?
Gowen still clearly remembers the sound he heard when he left the high-altitude perspective. He clearly heard words such as energy failure, host restart failure, escape program, etc., so the failure The possibility is extremely high, and coupled with the current state of being unable to adjust the distance of the viewing angle, it has deepened his speculation in this regard.
And he began to extend his thoughts: his soul, or spiritual body, may have mutated. Although he gained a human body when he came to the ground, his spirit obviously still retains the characteristics of the human body. The ability to create a connection with something in the sky, he had been offline for the past few months, but an unexpected crystal strengthened and re-established the connection. As for the ancient device in the sky - whether it is a satellite or a space station - it is still in a faulty state today, but it is not known whether it is because the energy system has returned to the light or the host has been successfully restarted. It has survived and is even still running today. Although The surveillance footage has become an indescribable mess, but this at least proves that it still exists.
In this extended train of thought, Gawain had to start worrying about another thing: if the connection between his spirit and the "satellite" in the sky was beyond imagination, there might even be something like this The connection of symbiosis and death... So once that thing in the sky is really completely destroyed, wouldn't it be extremely fatal?
He knew that this possibility was low. After all, he had already completed rebirth based on Gawain Cecil's body, and he had clearly heard the words "escape program". Therefore, my spirit should have become independent, but on this issue involving life and death, no small hidden danger can be ignored!
But that thing in the sky is very likely to be hanging in the synchronous orbit of this planet, and he himself is now trapped in an ignorant and backward medieval kingdom, let alone repairing that "satellite". He can't even see it now!
In such a constant churning of thoughts, Gawain was still observing all the details of the overhead view. He noticed that the image was not static. In fact, those hazy color blocks were always producing a faint sound. Changes, some areas will be brighter, and other areas will slowly darken, repeating the cycle, seemingly regular, but while changing, the overall distribution and outline are still roughly unchanged.
AndJust when Gawain tried to summarize the changing rules of those images, things changed again.
He suddenly saw a box like a floating window appearing above the image, and a line of text that kept flashing out of the box, as if it was being disturbed. Those were characters he didn't recognize at all— —It is neither Chinese nor the language of any kingdom or race on the Loren continent.
But when he looked at the line of words in shock and seriousness, the meaning of those words was directly translated and emerged in his mind:
"New data, giant planets The activity level increased, and the alert level increased to four. "
The screen began to shake, and layers of interference patterns appeared on the color blocks. Gawain woke up with horror, and his attention quickly shifted to the outside. The real world - the first time he switched his vision like this made the scene in front of him shake for a moment before stabilizing. Then, regardless of the dizziness that still remained in his mind, he suddenly stood up from the desk and rushed towards the door of the tent.
Hu Huo, who had been invisible for a long time, was startled and suddenly jumped out of the shadow form: "Wow!"
Gawain had already rushed outside the tent and was at the door. The two militiamen on guard looked back at him in shock, but he had no time to pay attention. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the sun that was hanging high in the middle of the sky.
The giant sun was moving slowly and majestically across the sky. A halo of mist-like light spread around the non-dazzling sun. Everything seemed normal, but soon, the sun's surface Then wisps of red gradually emerged like bloodshot eyes.
The picture in Gawain's mind still continued. He saw the color blocks surging in the overhead view that looked like a thermal image. Almost all the colors were rapidly deepening, but they gradually entered a new stability. status, and some numerical-like things appear at the edge of the screen from time to time, but I can't understand them at all.
He suddenly understood: These colors were probably not malfunctions, but some kind of special monitoring mode.
Perhaps it is a far more useful monitoring mode than the direct top view!
The red lines that appeared on the sun (part of the lines have now evolved into patches) became more and more numerous, and finally attracted the attention of the people working in the camp. They raised their heads and gestured. They discussed the changes in the sun until the supervisor loudly shouted at them to return to work.
Hetty, who was not far away using the magic of turning mud into stone to help reinforce the foundation, also noticed these changes. She raised her head and glanced at the sun, then turned her attention to the tent in the center of the camp - and sure enough she saw it. Gawain looked at the sun seriously.
She quickly ran to Gawain: "Ancestor, it seems that there are red spots again."
Gawain waved his hand, indicating to Hetty not to say anything yet, his eyes looked at sun, but the attention is focused on the picture in the conscious world.
After a period of time, the red part of the sun’s surface finally stopped growing, and the “monitoring image” in my mind"The text above changed first, and a new line of prompts popped up: "New data, the giant planet has returned to calm, and the alert has been lifted. ”
The red lines on the surface of the sun quickly faded after that, and the floating colors on the surveillance image gradually calmed down and returned to their original appearance.
But even though the surveillance image was lifted The warning in Gawain's heart was difficult to remove.
A large number of new discoveries turned into new clues, and a large number of clues piled up at once and turned into new problems.
He came up with countless conjectures and inferences, some of which were even so bold as to be a bit crazy, but he still suppressed these thoughts, first regaining his composure, and then looking for the explanation that was most likely to be closer to the truth.
"Ancestor...are you okay? Hetty looked at Gawain's face worriedly, "You look very bad..."
Amber had just slipped out of the tent, but the aura around Gawain was so oppressive that it made her This noisy and jumpy half-elf never dared to say a word. Only then did Hetty break the silence, and she dared to speak: "He rushed out before the red spots appeared on the sun, and he shocked me. ..."
"Hetty, can you feel the change in magic power? "Gawain suddenly turned his head and looked at Hetty seriously.
"There was a surge of magic power just now, and it became much easier to cast spells." Hetty nodded. The surge of magic power was the result of a reddish appearance on the surface of the sun. The normal phenomenon of spots - in fact, even the appearance of red spots on the surface of the sun is a normal phenomenon, but the frequency of red spots and upsurge of magic power has indeed been higher in recent times, coupled with the disaster in Cecil Territory and Gawain The previous warning was still fresh in her mind, and she couldn't help but become nervous, "Is it going to happen again..."
Hetty's face gradually turned pale.
"No, not yet. It’s not to the point where monsters will appear.” Gawain shook his head to calm Hetty down. He made this judgment on the one hand because he couldn’t see any signs of magic tide pollution from the overhead view, and on the other hand it came from Gawain Cecil. experience, the elemental power in the air is still stable, then there will be no problem, "It's just the general level of red spots and rising magic power..."
"The rising magic power and red spots are normal phenomena. , but usually it only happens once every three to five years," Hetty looked worried, "But this is already the second time in a few months..."
In fact, Gawain's heart was The worry and tension are no less intense than Hetty's.
In fact, because he has to worry about his connection with a "monitoring satellite" high in the sky, his tension is even stronger at the moment. Some.
But he also knew very well that he had now become the pillar of the entire Cecil Territory, especially in front of Hetty and Rebecca. He could not be weak or wavering in any way. Show it.
What's more, weakness and wavering can't solve the problem at all.
"Don't worry, there won't be monsters. Besides, I have experience even if the demonic wave really comes," Gao said. artsHe comforted his descendants, "Let everyone do their jobs well - only by building a strong and stable home can we have the capital to fight against nature."
Hetty looked at Gawain confidently With a look in her eyes, she couldn't help but feel calm in her heart. She bent over slightly and returned to her work.
Looking at Hetty who was using magic power to help with the construction project, Gawain also nodded slightly.
Perhaps Hetty and Rebecca cannot transcend the era and class in which they were born in many ideological and insightful aspects, but they have a foundation that other nobles of this era do not possess.
That is, they do not think that they can be separated from the people in the territory because of their status.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for a standard aristocratic lady like Hetty to go to the construction site and use magic to assist in the construction.
Looking at the land quickly hardening into a foundation under the influence of magic power, while Gawain lamented the convenience of magic, he also realized one thing: after the hardware facilities required for minting coins are in place, go to It might be a good idea to hire some down-and-out wild mages to help build the camp.
But before that, there are more important issues that must be carefully considered.
Gawain returned to the camp, sat down at his desk, and wrote down three questions on a blank piece of paper:
The "sun" in the sky "What is the relationship with the demonic tide on earth?
What are the possible roles and current status of "monitoring satellites"?
Why did Gawain Cecil seven hundred years ago leave behind a crystal that could help him re-establish contact with the satellite?
