Yuri and Semler were the first to stand up, followed by Wendy and several other bishops and archbishops present. Finally, the other priests realized who was in front of them, so the benches and clothes The sound of slight friction and shaking continued to sound throughout the entire assembly hall, and every eternal sleeper stood up.
This is truly a spectacular sight.
Gawain looked at these people in front of him, at these people who had just been transferred from Typhon and were members of the dark sect not long ago. Although he had personally facilitated all of this, he still felt a little uncomfortable at this moment. The real feeling is that the entire Eternal Sleeper sect has accumulated foundations over seven hundred years, and more than half of the results now belong to Cecil.
These are technicians.
Gawain exhaled softly and said calmly: "Everyone, please sit down."
The three major dark sects, the Sons of the Storm, are being eroded and transformed by the power of the Deep Sea God of Harmony. Currently, The situation is unknown; the Death of All Creation has finally lived up to its name. Except for a group of remnants who ran into the wasteland to hide, almost all those left in the human kingdom died, leaving only one plant on the Thorin Plains; the Eternal Sleeper, the Order It collapsed, and the remaining technical personnel were divided between the two human empires.
Although the darkness and chaos that lasted for seven hundred years cannot be said to have settled to this day, in Gawain's view, at least the general trend has been settled.
"Yuri, Semler, and...Wendy," Gawain glanced at the faces of several familiar archbishops one by one, and then turned his eyes to the open space next to him. At that moment, two more figures suddenly appeared there, "Ah, there's Magnum, Selina... I'm glad to see you arrived safely."
"Your Majesty," Yuri said slightly Taking a step forward, he obviously stumbled when he said the word "Your Majesty". He was obviously not very accustomed to this title. Then he turned slightly sideways and pointed to the crowd in the hall, "The Eternal Sleepers who have successfully crossed the border so far They are all already here - in terms of number, they only account for less than 10% of the entire religious order, but they are basically all middle-level and high-level members who have mastered technology, including almost all archbishops, one-third of bishops, and A group of elite priests with outstanding abilities are at your disposal at any time."
In other words, there are actually a considerable number of middle-level technicians left in Typhon...
Gawain sighed slightly in his heart, but did not show it. He just nodded and said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, you can rest here for a few days first, get familiar with the environment here, and get familiar with you here. There will be dedicated personnel and departments responsible for the laws and rules that you must abide by, and arrangements will be made for food and accommodation.
"In addition, in the next period of time, these Holy Light Priests will be with you. Living together, they will help you gradually adapt to life here. ”
The Eternal Sleepers at the scene seemed to be a little commotion when they heard his last words, but in the end no one stood up to express their opinions. Gawain was quite satisfied with this.meaning.
"Then, others can go and rest, the archbishops stay - I still have things to explain and make arrangements."
The white knights and battle nuns at the scene immediately stepped forward , guiding other priests to leave the assembly hall and go to the resettlement area arranged in advance. Yuri, Semler and other archbishops stayed as instructed - including Magnum, who currently appeared in front of Gawain in an illusory projection state. and Selena.
Magnum looked around this place curiously. He was not very accustomed to the existence of "psychological projection", so that it kept flickering like a magic crystal with poor contact (which made people Reminiscent of Kamel in party mode), after discovering that everyone had left, he seemed to belatedly aware of the changes in the scene, and immediately looked at Gawain curiously: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what other arrangements do you have? ?"
"Take you to see your new 'home'," Gawain smiled, then lowered his head and said to Amber, "Go to the computing center."
The place Gawain wanted to take them to was not far away - in fact, it was right next to the meeting place.
Under the escort of a team of white knights, the archbishops walked for less than ten minutes on a road with no pedestrians and covered by trees and bushes. The open space under construction is before everyone's eyes.
A variety of magic machines that they have never seen before are running nervously and busily in the open space. Extraordinary powers are controlled by the most ordinary workers, and are used on a large scale in the most basic construction projects. In the center of this orderly and extremely efficient construction site, the main body of a building that seems to be five or six stories high, roughly in the shape of a pyramid, with a large number of runes and magic materials being laid on the surface, has taken shape and stands there majestically.
Magnan’s eyes suddenly widened—almost every archbishop present was more or less surprised.
Some of them were surprised by the "mechanized cluster construction" scene they had never seen before, and some were surprised by the mysterious pyramid building whose style and structure were unheard of. No matter why they were surprised, they were The reaction was surprisingly unanimous: all eyes soon fell on Gawain.
Magnum stared at the pyramid for a long time, and then looked at Gawain. He was the first to say: "Is that a prison? Or is it for our reform?" Factory'?"
He still firmly remembered the "labor reform" matter that Gawain had mentioned before at the Supreme Synod.
The expressions of several archbishops at the scene became somewhat subtle. Yuri even spread his hands helplessly - since Magnum turned into a projection, he wanted to cover the loud mouth in time. It's not that easy.
Gawain didn't care, he smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, at least among the people present, no one has to be thrown into prison, and the knowledge you have can maximize your chances of being thrown into prison." In exchange for a brighter one for youfuture. As for this facility... in a sense it does allow you to work in it, but it is not a factory.
"Welcome to the Imperial Computing Center - although it is not yet completed, some of the facilities in the main building are ready. Come with me and I will show you the future."
Gawain took the Eternal Sleepers and strode towards the pyramid-shaped building. Everyone followed with a mixture of curiosity and expectation. Amber also followed Gawain closely with her short legs open. When approaching the "pyramid", Yuri noticed that many areas on the outer edge of its foundation were not covered. On the open foundation layer, a large number of neatly arranged hexagonal rune structures could be seen. And there is a faint magical radiance flowing between those components.
This is probably Cecil's "Magic Network", he thought.
From scale to precision, it is indeed far superior to various "imitations" produced by other forces.
Afterwards, they stepped through the door of the pyramid-shaped building, and a hall illuminated by a large number of lights, where the site was being cleaned and facilities were being laid, appeared in front of everyone.
The first thing they saw was a huge pillar in the center of the hall. The pillar was rectangular and thicker than the main beams of any castle. Its surface seemed to be made of a large amount of silver. It is made up of spliced white metal plates. Its precise splicing and distribution of gaps that seem to contain certain geometric patterns reveal an intoxicating "beauty". This beauty is difficult to describe in words because no one has seen it anywhere else. Something similar to it.
Between the gaps in those metal plates, and on the surfaces of some special panels, streaks of light blue magic light were flowing quietly, and the dots of lights flickered like breathing.
This even gave Yuri an illusion - he actually felt that this pillar was alive and even had its own thinking. It was the heart and brain of this building. Those Cecil Workers and technicians were awakening it little by little, and this gradually awakening thing... was waiting to communicate with other minds...
Suddenly, Yuri realized that what he had created was not an illusion.
He did feel something familiar from that pillar, which was a magic wave similar to some facilities in the Eversleeper headquarters!
"This is the hall of thinking. The pillar in front of you is called the 'mental hub'. It is the first and only mental hub in the empire." Gawain noticed the expressions on the faces of Yuri and others His expression changed, and he deliberately waited a few seconds before explaining, "You may be a little familiar with it, which is normal, because this thing... uses your mind network technology.
"The 'Mind Hub' almost runs through the entire building, with four floors above ground and two floors underground. It connects all levels of computing layers, thinking halls, redundancy centers and the deepest magic network medium layer. You have noticed the rooms around the hall. What? There are more rooms above and below ground, those roomsThere are a total of thousands of immersion chambers in the room - there will be more in the future, and there will be more computing centers in various provinces of the empire, and there will be more 'distribution stations' near each computing center to undertake more computing tasks.
“The immersion chambers in each room will be connected to the mind hub, and then connected to the magic network through the mind hub - after an additional layer of magic network conversion and a new security medium, it will be more direct than before. It is much safer to use the human brain to 'nakedly connect' to the Internet.
"By the way, some of you may not know what an immersion chamber is - you can ask Selina about this, she has seen it. ”
Samler no longer cared much about what Gawain said in his last sentence.
He, as well as the other archbishops present, everyone looked at it in stunned silence. Listening to all this, imagining all this in my mind
This magnificent building, as well as the large-scale, advanced and sophisticated equipment inside, are actually eternal sleepers. The technical extension of the psychic network, but their size and application methods are completely beyond the understanding of all eternal sleepers. Even if they do not have a glimpse of the entire building, even if they only glance at what they can see, Samler and Yuri Others can also tell that this thing is definitely not just for the Eternal Sleeper priests currently present - it must accommodate many more "users" than they imagined!
What shocked them even more was that there would be more than one similar "computing center" in the future - every province would have one, and there would even be facilities like "distribution stations" for additional expansion. How great would this be? Huge scale?
The original Eternal Sleeper Order also had so-called "external nodes". In addition to the headquarters in Orlandale, they also set up some computing facilities in other places. However, the size of those nodes It is pitifully small, and its function is only equivalent to the auxiliary facilities of the headquarters, which is probably equivalent to the role of the "distribution station" mentioned by Gawain. Even so, it is already the result accumulated by the Eternal Sleeper Order for hundreds of years... …
What Gawain described was a future that was unimaginable to them.
The scale was so huge that they even felt it was a bit unbelievable.
"So many, such large-scale computing centers..." Yuri finally couldn't help but speak, "Are you planning to let everyone connect to it? "
"Why not? Gawain asked back, "The immersion chamber is a safer connection method and can be used by ordinary people. In fact, Cecil has completed research in this area. The current limitation on the size of the computing center is only the immersion chamber." It’s just the capacity of the cabin.
"As you said, Yuri, I want this network to cover the entire empire - in my opinion, this is a very useful technology."
The archbishops looked at each other.
This is a road they have never thought of - because the direction represented by this road once seemed to themImpossible!
However, just thinking about the prospects described by Gawain and the power that the psychic network can unleash after it is rebuilt on the land of Cecil Empire, they can't help but feel dazzled. .
"It's actually possible to do this..." Magnum couldn't help but mutter, "We haven't even imagined such a thing..."
Gawain smiled, He gave Magnum a calm look.
"Because the Order of the Eternal Sleeper is just a sect, and Cecil is an empire," he said unhurriedly, "What you see are two forces - industrial power, and... the power of the state machine.
"And your original path of 'lonely salvation' is destined to run counter to these two forces.
"Finally, let me say it again - welcome to Cecil, welcome to the future."
