Rebecca stood up and lit the magic crystal lamp. Under the sudden warm glow brought by the artificial light, the room that had just fallen into night became bright again. In the light, Gawain was quietly watching the table. File, without saying a word for a long time.
"This is just a conjecture." After a long time, Jenny suddenly broke the silence, "It is a bit incredible that the sun is the biggest source of interference, and our understanding of virtual celestial bodies is far inferior to that of the Understanding the planet under our feet"
"Yes, it is just a speculation. There is currently no evidence to prove that the reason for the erroneous results of the observation device is external interference, and there is no evidence to prove that this interference comes from the sun. "Gawain said, slowly shaking his head, "But this speculation can completely explain the abnormal situation currently encountered, and can even explain why the various plans of the Noi people are useless."
Rebecca looked at Jenny and then at Gawain. After holding it in for a long time, she finally couldn't help but say, "But if the interference really comes from the sun, what should we do?"
Gawain fell into deep thought. , of course he has been thinking about how to solve this problem since just now, but no matter how he thinks about it, this is an unsolvable dilemma. If the interference really comes from the sun, it means that the entire Loren planet is located in this "interference zone" , even in a large area around the sun, the observation device cannot escape the infinite power emitted by the sun
This is not a situation that can be dealt with by using the funny idea of "turning on the computer at night". The interference is obviously not "sunlight", but the magic released by the sun. Even if the observation device is to be effective, it relies on scanning the magic fluctuations in the starry sky. When interference is everywhere and even infiltrates the entire planet, what do you do? Shield the observation device from interference
What's more, the magic tide observation device itself is a fixed facility integrated with the Holy Mountain and built on the Great Plains. It is impossible to move at all. There is no way it can be covered by some kind of filtering device
“I can’t think of a way now.” After pondering for a long time, Gawain finally slowly shook his head, “This is beyond a problem that can be solved by just a few people discussing it. We need to summon all experts to face this problem, and even analyze the situation with the Noi people. In addition, we also need to conduct more rigorous and effective investigations to truly pinpoint the source of the problem. It is only a possible speculation that the interference comes from the sun. , More evidence is needed to support it."
Rebecca nodded slowly, while Jenny on the side suddenly said after thinking, "If it is finally confirmed that the interference is indeed related to the sun, we will. Maybe there is not enough time to redesign the observation device, even if it is technically feasible."
Gawain looked at Jenny deeply, and then suddenly reached out and held her slightly thin shoulders. "Lack of time is not a reason to give up action. No matter what the result is, it is better to work hard to the last step than to sit back and watch the end."
Jenny looked at Gawain in front of her in confusion. After a moment, she was already a little confused. depressedHer expression finally regained her firmness. She took a breath and lowered her head with a very solemn expression, "Yes, I will keep your teachings in mind."
Gawain nodded, "If you are tired, rest first." "Look, we have a lot of problems to face, but they can't be solved in a moment. You are in a special position now, so don't fall down at the critical moment."
A few more brief explanations. After saying this, Gawain left the building of the Magic Energy Technology Department. He will be busy next. There are countless things waiting for him to arrange and intervene. When a huge shadow is about to fall, he must stand in front of everyone in advance. .
After Gawain left, only Rebecca and Jenny were left in the huge office. Under the bright magic crystal lamp, the atmosphere in the room seemed a little dull for a while. Even the night that gradually became quiet outside the window no longer made people feel at ease. Instead, it only made people feel anxious and impetuous. Rebecca looked at her friend in front of her with some worry. After hesitating for a long time, she couldn't help but say, "Jenny, you Is it okay, have you remembered back then?"
"I'm okay," Jenny suddenly let out a long breath and interrupted Rebecca before she finished speaking. She showed a smile, Although the smile was a bit forced, she still managed to get rid of her bad mood, "Don't worry, people will grow. The chief rune master of the empire will not shrink from the battle, and His Majesty's words have alerted me."
"The words of the ancestors" Rebecca blinked, "Why did they wake you up?"
"No matter what the result is, working hard is better than giving up," Jenny said, turning and walking towards the desk, "I didn't choose to take that notebook because I expected brilliant achievements in the future."
In the next few days, both Noi and Loren were waiting anxiously With the arrival of the next synchronized observation window period, and before the arrival of this observation window, a series of tests and adjustments of the magic tide observation device and the verification of various conjectures have never stopped.
On the Ancestral Plains of Augure, the huge engineering behemoth has been completely awakened. Every sensor, every computing center, and every energy station is originating from the interior of the planet. Driven by the huge energy, it runs roaringly. The low sound coming from the deep focus of the vibration echoes on the plain. The sensor array ring scans the sky over and over again in the wind. The operators constantly reset its hardware and switch between various components. Redundant lines, constantly trying to adjust the working mode of the computing center, and collecting environmental samples around the clock within the scope of the observation device.
All the conceivable verification ideas were put to use within a few days, and each conjecture was eliminated one by one after repeated verification.
As these tests continued, the communication between Noi and Loren was never interrupted. The Loren Alliance sent all parameters during the operation of the magic tide observation device without reservation. On the other side of the starry sky, scholars from the two planets focused their attention on one place. Under these focuses, the magic tide observation device appeared.The scope of causes of abnormal conditions is gradually narrowing.
This gradually narrowing "scope of suspicion" finally begins to point to the result that no one is willing to face. The reason for the abnormal readings of the magic tide observation device is not a hardware failure, not a "software problem", and not a blueprint. Loopholes or design flaws, all internal factors have been eliminated, and the only explanation in the end is that there really is an unprecedented and powerful source of interference that envelopes the entire system from the outside.
It is precisely because of the existence of this interference source that the magic tide observation device can only observe a "ghost" no matter what mode it operates in.
In the Observer's Chamber deep in the Peak of the Ancestors in the Holy Mountain of Augure, Myrmina is sitting quietly on her golden throne, with the endless flow of magical flames at her feet. Surges, neatly arranged Magic Network terminals are running quietly throughout the cave, and the complicated holographic projections are constantly refreshing with dazzling data and graphics. These things show that this "engineering behemoth" is progressing like this. It operates as designed. If we look at it as a "living creature", it is healthy and strong.
But Myrmena knew very well that this giant beast had actually been tied up with a rope from the beginning, a rope that came from the sky and had been used by all living beings on this planet for millions of years. A rope regarded as the source of life and the grace of all things.
"This is the observer's secret room. All predetermined processes have been completed and the relevant data is being transmitted to the Cecil Empire Computing Center." Myrmina activated the magic network terminal next to her throne. God, she maintains the highest work efficiency as always, and her emotional ups and downs do not affect her ability to fulfill her mission as an "observer." "Next, the magic tide observation device will conduct self-examination and maintenance for about an hour, and communication The channel will remain open."
In the study room covered with blue velvet carpets in Cecil City, Gawain nodded slightly to Myrmina on the communication screen, and then his eyes returned. On the printing device on the side, accompanied by the brisk clicking sound of gears and connecting rods, snow-white paper tape is slowly being spit out from the machine. "Our wise men have analyzed all the data, and we are basically certain that your guess is correct." , the reason why the magic tide observation device cannot function as expected comes from outside the system. The gas giant planet orbited by the Loren planet is the most likely source of interference, and with the current technical means, we cannot find a way to counteract this interference source. "
The words on the paper tape are neat and cold. It is difficult to tell what kind of emotions the sender and the people standing behind the sender are sending these words, but Gao Gao Wen still felt a sense of great helplessness and frustration. He pondered for a long time before sending a response to the other party, "Can we try to crack the interference through later optimization of the algorithm, or use mathematical means to calibrate the parameters?"
After a while, the printing device began to click. "We have indeed thought of this solution. Wise men are currently discussing the feasibility of this solution. In addition, we are also trying to design a solution for the observation device."A reverse correction mechanism is used to try to solve the interference problem, but it is still unknown whether these solutions are effective."
Then the signal from Noi paused for a moment, and it took almost half a minute before there was another communication. Come “Mr. Leader, this is regrettable. ”
Gawain knew that this last added sentence was delivered in a personal tone by the “Witch” Nova, but this sentence is not the feeling of the Noi tribe across the star sea at this moment
p>But apart from the word "regret", they really have no other words to describe the situation at this moment.
Because it is no one's fault and who can be responsible for this. Noi gave away all his knowledge without reservation, and Loren cooperated with this action with all his strength. Both civilizations did everything they could within their own capabilities, but the sudden arrival of the shadow was all over the place. It was unexpected, even outside the technical boundaries of the two planets.
So in the end, I could only say that it was regrettable.
But Gawain watched quietly. There were cold and sharp letters on the paper, but his expression was firmer and calmer than ever. After a moment of reflection, he suddenly pressed his hand on the special "Send Letter" button, "It's not time to announce it for yourself in advance." At the time of execution, Miss Nova, and Noi's friends standing four light years away, we still have time to take some actions, even if there is only one month left, we still have one month, even if there is only one month left, we still have one month. We still have one day next day, and even if it’s the last second left, we can’t waste this second on being upset.
"The gray elves of the Loren Alliance have an old proverb: Time spent on trouble is the most precious cost in the world. So let us put away the trouble first, and the situation will be settled. It’s not good, but there are still many things that can be done. Let’s start by trying to optimize the algorithm to crack the interference. If it is feasible, we will try it.”
The Magic Network terminal buzzed, Gawain. His words turned into data processed by Thorin's command center, and were sent into the vast sea of stars by the Antavien super-light communication array. In this cold starry sky, the power of a sentence may not bring much warmth, but This time the Nuoyi people responded faster than before, "We very much agree with Mr. Leader. I take back what I just said. The situation is difficult, but we don't need to regret it.
" Nuoyi will respond to the current situation in the shortest possible time. The algorithm used by the observation device is optimized, and methods to remove interference are found based on the parameters observed by Loren. In addition, relevant information on the reverse correction plan will also be sent in the near future, so please pay attention to check it at any time.
"It's not time to give up yet."
Gawain breathed out softly. He leaned back on the back of the seat and looked at the TV with a calm expression. The printing device connected to the Magic Network terminal said in a low voice, "Yes, it's not time to give up yet."
The communication between the two planets temporarily ended until both the Magic Network terminal and the printing device were quiet After coming down, Amber, who had been standing next to him, suddenly said, "This counts."It’s not like we’re about to reach the end of our rope.”
Gawain raised his eyelids and glanced at her, “Congratulations, your choice of words was very precise this time. "
"I'm not happy at all," Amber curled her lips after hearing this, and sat down unceremoniously on the chair next to Gao's desk, "I was worried that the source of interference came from the sun. There have been various accidents, but even in the worst guess, the situation is not outrageous like this. The entire world we live in is immersed in the magic brought by the sun."
Gao Wen didn't speak for a while. He just meditated silently. After being quiet in the room for several minutes, he suddenly broke the silence. "So smooth sailing is only possible in dreams. The real world is not so tender."
Amber spread his hands, and then suddenly changed the topic, "A new batch of transport ships from Antavien have arrived at the orbital elevator. According to the sirens, they are the ones they put under the box." The last batch of space operation equipment. Once this batch of engineering machines and protective devices are launched into space, there should be no major expansion of the construction team on the Cangqiong Station. At most, there will be some rotation of personnel. According to feedback from Nicholas Egg, the current engineering strength can ensure that all renovation projects are completed within the planning cycle. "
Gawain breathed a sigh of relief, "At least one thing is on the right track. ”
The troubles encountered by the Demonic Tide Observation Device have cast a huge cloud over the two civilizations. The failure of the observation device to operate smoothly means that neither Noi nor Loren can know the crucial truth. Important "civilization key", but even if this cloud is shrouded, things that need to be done must still be done, including the transformation project of the Cangqiong Station, the activation of the planetary shield, the expansion of the neural network, and also the basic national economy and people's livelihood.
From the survival of civilization to three meals a day, life has to be lived.
Gawain looked back through the floor-to-ceiling window of the study. The sun is still shining brightly.
Those magnificent projects are still going on, and ordinary people in this city are still living their lives.
But he still knows very well that for Si. For the Noi people who are light years away, they really don’t have much time. Please visit the mobile phone if you are correct
