Although he had put away the crystal again, Gawain could still "see" the overhead view in his mind that looked like some kind of energy image, but he soon found a way to turn off the picture: as long as he was conscious If you divert your attention from the overhead view and focus on something else, the picture will disappear on its own, and the way to make the picture reappear is also very simple - just call it consciously.
In this process, there is no need to rely on the power of crystal.
Some kind of "link" controlled based on spirit and thought seems to have been established, and the role of crystal in this process is probably only equivalent to a key... or something like a catalyst.
Gawain sat behind the desk, looking at several questions he had written on the paper, organizing his thoughts and trying to answer them.
According to Gawain Cecil's memory, coupled with what happened just now, it has been determined that the changes in the "sun" in the sky are directly related to the demonic tide on the ground. Whenever a red spot appears on the surface of the sun, , the magic power on the earth will rise, and the elements will become active. The so-called dark magic tide is actually the instantaneous explosion of massive chaotic and disorderly magic power, the process in which the elemental power loses control and erodes the material world like an avalanche. Those monsters that appear in the elemental storm - their principles are not yet clear, and they can be regarded as a secondary phenomenon after the elements go berserk for the time being.
Regarding the phenomenon of sun red spots and rising magic power, intelligent creatures in this world are not unfamiliar with it. It is a natural phenomenon, irregular but not rare, so Gawain boldly hypothesized that the nature of the magic tide In fact, it should be the surge of magic power after crossing a certain "critical point". When the increase in magic power in this world reaches a certain limit, the stable order of the elements will be broken, and the magic wave will erupt.
What role does the sun play in this process?
Does red spots cause an upsurge of magic power? Or is it that the two are not causally related, but two phenomena of the same event?
Gawain thought for a while and added a small question on the paper: What is the nature of the sun?
It seems to be certain that it is a giant planet - at least that's what the "monitoring information" states, but it is obviously similar in nature to the gas giant planets that Gawain knows. There is a big difference.
As far as Gawain knows, the gas giant planet in his home world is not a celestial body that emits heat. Although it is usually filled with massive amounts of nuclear fuel and releases a certain intensity of energy radiation, due to the lack of Reaching the fusion critical point, this giant planet is "cooling" like an unlit furnace, but the "sun" of this world is obviously providing light and heat to the earth.
So was it "lit"? Or does it show special properties because the laws of the two worlds are different?
Gawain thought about it, and he personally preferred the second explanation, because those red spots and the upward surge of magic power reminded him that there are completely different physical rules in this world from those in his hometown. ,likeIf you are limited to a fixed mindset, you may be doing useless work when thinking about problems.
And there is another important reason why he ruled out the first guess: If the giant sun in the sky is really an ignited gas giant planet undergoing a fusion reaction, then it can already be regarded as As a star, the light and heat it releases are definitely not as small as they are now. With the area of its solar disc and the almost blue-white surface color, the heat it releases should be enough to burn the planet under its feet. Turned into ashes.
Gawain wrote his conclusion on paper: "The sun" is a gas giant planet with special properties. Its activities will affect the magic on the surface of the earth. It is speculated that it is some kind of catalytic energy radiation. . The appearance of red spots may mean an increase in energy radiation, but because effective detection methods are not available, the answer is questionable.
Then the second question, what is a "monitoring satellite"?
It may be an ancient civilization, or it may be an outpost left by some extraterrestrial visitors over the planet. The civilization that built it must be extremely advanced, at least they are not afraid of the so-called demonic tide - —Satellites can even hang leisurely in space and watch the show when the magic wave breaks out, which is enough to illustrate the technological generation gap. And where is the civilization that left this (assuming there is only one satellite) observation post now?
Gao Wen considered that the satellite he traveled through had a serious malfunction, but no after-sales service had come to his door yet, so he made a bold guess: The civilization that left the satellite behind was either GG or gone far away, and no longer paid attention to this place.
Of course, it is also possible that the big boss was so rich that he used up the satellite like a few napkins, so no one came to see the situation, but this possibility is very low, and Gao Wen didn't do anything about it at all. consider.
Anyway, the satellite is almost GG, and no maintenance personnel have come to the door yet. It seems that for the time being, there is no need to worry about the super civilized father coming to beat the child. This is good news - but Gawain second thoughts When I think about it, if that super civilization can help solve the problem of demonic tides and they don't come, it will be extremely bad news...
As for the functional positioning of this satellite, it may be used for monitoring. The magic power fluctuates.
Gawain remembered the second type of top view he had seen before (he called the clear satellite view he had seen for many thousands of years the first type of top view), and various color filters were used on that view. Covering the entire earth, perhaps the different shades of colors represent fluctuations in magic power, and the simultaneous changes in those colors when the magic power surge occurs can also support this conjecture. So the satellite is actually an early warning device for the demonic tide?
At least, "early warning" should be one of its functions.
It’s just that the situation of this observation post is probably worrying. No matter how Gawain gives the order, he can’t make any adjustments to the pictures, and the pictures will have serious interference lines and jitter from time to time. Appearing, this reminds him that the system may have reached its end.
Then there is only one leftA question: Why did the ancient Gawain Cecil leave such a crystal behind seven hundred years ago?
Now Gawain still doesn’t understand all the properties of this crystal, but at least it has been verified that it can help him regain contact with a monitoring station in the sky. So is this crystal useful to others?
If it was useful, what did Gawain Cecil use it for back then? Could it be that he also obtained a satellite perspective like himself?
emmmmmmm... This seems to make sense. The reason why the most powerful pioneer knight at that time could lead a group of refugees to successfully escape from the demon tide and monsters was like extreme parkour. Breaking through and establishing a new kingdom was mainly due to the opening of the full map...
But this is not enough to just guess, he has to actually test it.
Gawain held the complete crystal and thought about how to test it - it involved his own secrets, so he couldn't just give it to anyone to use, although for the indigenous people of this world, If you suddenly see a bird's-eye view that looks like a thermal image, you may not be able to tell anything, but I'm afraid there are intelligent people among the indigenous people who can deduce the truth from those bird's-eye views.
Therefore, you must find someone reliable enough to ensure that even if the other party succeeds in the test on the spot, nothing uncontrollable will happen.
In fact, Gawain's worries here are a bit unnecessary - based on the worldview of the vast majority of people in this world, they have no concept of satellite becoming a spirit to land and be reborn, and they rashly pass through a crystal After seeing the big map, the only thought they had was probably "this thing is an artifact, with more than 10,000 levels of eagle eye skills" - but who made Gawain's thoughts not fully integrated with this world? ?
So he just thought about it for a while, then slowly looked up at Miss Amber who was standing beside the table in a daze.
The half-elf girl felt a chill in her body. She turned around and saw Gawain’s piercing eyes. She suddenly got goosebumps: "You...what are you going to do?! You finally exposed your noble nature and prepared to prepare." You took action against your own guard, right..."
This won't work. She is disobedient, unreliable and a monkey spirit. God knows how much trouble will happen if she is asked to do a test.
Gawain quickly gave up the idea, but at this moment, someone came in and reported that Rebecca, who had gone out to survey the land, was back.
Gawain immediately beamed with joy: "Let her come over quickly!"
Rebekah quickly ran into the tent in a hurry, and she ran outside for most of the day. , but she didn’t show any signs of fatigue, instead she looked full of energy. She thought Gawain wanted her to report the situation, so she quickly spoke as soon as she came in: "Ancestor! You may not believe how many good places there are around here—— I thought that the Dark Mountains were all barren, barren and undeveloped places, but I followed the map you gave me and found it..."
"It's okay, don't rush this matter now. "Gawain waved his hand and interrupted Rebbe.Card, and handed over the crystal in his hand, "I have something for you to do."
He looked at the great-granddaughter of the N+1 layer in front of him with a smile, feeling that he was the other extreme from Amber. ——
Obedient, reliable, and his brain has been caught in the door.
Rebecca took the crystal handed to her by Gawain in a daze, wondering what her ancestor's instructions were: "Then what?"
Gawain thought about it carefully. Thinking about how he got in touch with the satellite, he started to direct from the side: "Then you imagine that there is something overlooking the earth in a very high place - higher than the clouds. Now you try to communicate with that thing. Establish a connection."
Rebecca blinked: "Oh, you mean the mysterious eye, right?"
The mysterious eye is a term used by mages. Everyone who is talented in mastering magic has a pair of eyes that transcend themselves. These eyes float above the entire world, soaked in the "ether sea", observing the nature of the world and the flow of magic on behalf of the magician. The quality of these eyes determines the talent of each magician in the process of study and improvement. Magicians cannot directly perceive these eyes, but their souls can subconsciously - the process of meditation is the process of communicating with these eyes.
Of course Gawain is not referring to this: "No, it is a higher place than the Eye of Mystery, and it is more specific. It is a real thing, like a magic prop."
Rebecca tried her best and showed an apologetic smile: "But I didn't see anything?"
Then Gawain changed several ways of guidance, but Rebekah The crystal in Ka's hand didn't react at all.
It seems... Duke Gawain Cecil's issue of opening all the maps seven hundred years ago cannot be confirmed.
