Sword of Daybreaker

The dark clouds disappeared. After seven centuries, normal sunlight finally shined again on this land where an ancient and powerful civilization once stood. Under the light of the approaching dusk, the hustle and bustle of the Tarashi Plain was dispersed, and only what remained. An almost unreal peace.

But calmness is only the appearance. The previous visions have disturbed the minds of countless people. After the dark clouds disperse, the debris that burned and fell in the atmosphere was like a spectacular rain of fire and scattered across the wasteland plain and everyone on the battlefield. Having witnessed this scene, coupled with the large-scale mysterious spaceship that descended on the battlefield before, all kinds of bizarre speculations have emerged in countless people's hearts-ordinary soldiers do not know beyond this battlefield. What happened, but everyone knew one thing: those fire rains that fell from the sky were definitely not as simple as ordinary "shooting stars", they affected the nerves of the three empires.

On every front, the air forces of the three major empires were chasing in the direction where the "meteor" fell.

The Earthly Dawn has returned to the front of its own responsibility. The huge and scarred air supremacy is now quietly hovering over the Ogure tribal coalition forces. The traces of the war left it no longer as glamorous as before, but Let it add to the endless vicissitudes of life under the setting sun.

Gina Prince came to the deck, and in the sunset, she looked at the sky not far away.

The peak of the meteor shower has passed. At this moment, there are only a few small spots of light left in the sky occasionally across the firmament. A thin and clean cloud floats under the setting sun. The trails left by the previous meteor shower can be vaguely seen in the clouds. The high-altitude high-speed reconnaissance crew and the Dragonborn scouts that took off from the Earthly Dawn took off a few minutes ago, tracking westward where the "fallen things" fell. Special troops and commanders took over the aftermath of the battlefield. For a while, she actually had a chance to breathe.

Jin Na touched her forehead. The wound left by the collision on the command seat has stopped bleeding and partially healed under the action of the alchemy potion, but the wound is still a little bit painful—for an extraordinary person, this little wound is actually It was not a problem at all, Jin Na even felt that feeling the sting on the battlefield where the dust had settled was actually a kind of... happiness.

This real pain allows her to more clearly determine that she is still alive, to determine the authenticity of this victory, and to determine the ultimate survival of this world.

At this moment, she heard a special buzzing from the Monet terminal she carried with her. This was the highest level communication prompt. Jin Na quickly sorted out her status, and then activated the audio of the communication device-high Vin Cecil's voice then came into her ears: "What's the situation on your side?"

Jin Na immediately reported: "Your Majesty, the Earthly Dawn has returned to the standby position, and the overall state of the battle group is good, but there are structural damages in some areas of the Earthly Dawn's body, damage to the main cranial nervous system, and a certain degree of casualties. It will take another time later. Thorough repairs and personnel replenishment. In addition, we have just communicated with the ground forces. The Ogure tribal coalition and the Western Front Corps led by the Duke of Baldwin have been seriously damaged. A medical ship has landed and provided assistance."

"Good job," Gawain's voice seemed to be relieved, and then he asked, "Is Rebecca okay?"

"His Royal Highness is resting-she was brave and fearless in the previous battle. She controlled the situation and completed the key attack on the creeping disaster when all the accelerator array commanders were killed. This won the respect of everyone. "

"Very well," Gawain said with a smile, "have the troops tracking the space debris set off?"

"Eight minutes ago," Jin Na replied meticulously, "At present, the tracking system of the Earthly Dawn has determined that several larger fragments have flown to the vast expanse between the barrier of the Ogure Mountains and the Gondor Wasteland. In the wilderness, judging from its size and falling speed, the traces near the falling point should be obvious, but it is still uncertain whether there will be other fragments flying to the inhabited area."

"Well, you can trace the wreckage that has fallen in the wasteland area as much as possible. After you find it, don't be busy recovering it. Mark and monitor it, and wait for further orders."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Next, the other side of the communicator was silent for a few seconds, and then Gao Wen's voice sounded low again: "Thank you."

Jin Na was taken aback, and immediately straightened her body, her voice was shocked: "The responsibility!"

…

In the command post in the northern part of the Talash Plain, Gawain ended the communication with the Earthly Dawn, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pick his ears. Amber who was standing next to him also picked his ears, and then took a serious look. Reported to him with his expression: "...Warnings about those'space debris' have been issued to various countries, the observatory, air defense stations and mage towers in the surrounding wasteland are already staring at the sky, and emergency evacuation orders for residents in high-risk areas have also been issued. It shouldn't cause any major problems when it is issued."

"Most of the large debris flew to the no-man's land in the wasteland, and the smaller fragments would not cause much damage. This is a blessing in misfortune," Gao Wen breathed out softly with a strange expression on his face. Said, "Fortunately, the sentinel was completely disintegrated, and fortunately, the angle at which it fell into the atmosphere was'appropriate'. Otherwise, if a giant spaceship is smashed down, the mortal civilization will suffer severe damage if it is not dead this season..."

"That was, I finally won a battle, and I was crushed to death by the enemy's body when I turned my head. I felt so unreasonable just thinking about it," Amber waved his hand and muttered, "It's equivalent to being beaten by the grave after successful digging. One meal..."

The Shadow Assault Goose was habitually beating again, but this time Gawain did not fight her as usual to relieve his boredom. After hearing Amber’s voice, he just subconsciously stared at the other person up and down, as if to look from her. As if there was even the slightest anomaly, Amber’s hair was frightened by this look, and she instantly folded her arms: "Why...what's the matter? Why are you staring at me so suddenly? Hey-it's scary, you might as well hit me directly. One meal..."

"...It's okay, I'll take a look." Gao Wen exhaled, waved his hand and said casually.

After all, he was still not sure whether Amber really had an abnormality just now. After several inquiries, he couldn't ask why. Now he is a bit too nervous about the matter, so he can only temporarily put the doubts in his heart. Putting it aside, I turned my attention back to what was in front of me.

"It is foreseeable that the wreckage that fell on this planet after the disintegration of the sentry will definitely cause a stir in the alliance," he said casually, "although the upsurge has corrupted almost all the core systems inside it. The battle in space has shredded its main structure, but only the remaining fragments are also a huge asset for today's alliance..."

"Not just the debris from the sentinel, but also the'rotten meat' lying in the northeast corner of the Deep Blue Well," Amber shook his head. "A wreck left by an ancient god, how much useful has to be excavated from it? The thing—the fragments left behind after the fall of the God of War have not been studied until now."

"The Theocracy will be responsible for dealing with the wreckage left by the tide. Our senior consultants know how to deal with this dangerous containment. As for the wreckage of the sentinel... it may also require a special multinational joint agency to deal with it. Things cannot be controlled by a single country."

Amber frowned when she heard this, and looked a little worried: "Although it is said that, researching this kind of thing really will not...the same situation as the anti-tide empire in the ancient times? It is the legacy of the sailor, and It's the wreckage left by the tide. These two dangerous things are put together, and it feels like they are going to blow up at any time..."

"It is precisely in order to avoid repeating the same mistakes that we have to start research in this area, and it is an open, large-scale study that involves all countries in the entire coalition," Gawain said with a serious expression, "It is not contact with the legacy of the sailors. This led to the'reverse tide', but the ignorance and worship of the legacy of the sailors led to the'reverse tide'-advanced knowledge is not terrible, but the terrible thing is that this knowledge is'respected as a god'."

Speaking of this, he paused, and then slowly said: "'Ignorance' is the catalyst for the shackles of the soul. When things like sailors and upsurges have been exposed to the eyes of the world, the more secretly they will be kept secret. The more likely they are to be cast over a layer of mystery or even divinity. In this regard, many people are easy to fall into misunderstandings, even the previous dragons have also entered into this misunderstanding, but in fact... based on rationality The process of exploring and seeking knowledge is the best way to fight against the breeding of divine nature, and blocking the'forbidden things' layer by layer can only create more and more indescribable monsters over time."

Amber listened to Gawain's words with a thoughtful expression on his face: "The divine nature pollutes this thing, the lower the education level, the greater the harm, right..."

Gao Wen nodded: "If you don't learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, life is full of myths."

"Then what shall we do next?" Amber thought for a while, "Now contact Typhon and Silver, so that they can prepare to establish a'Sentinel Research Institute' in the alliance? Or discuss with those'senior consultants' Discuss, let them come up with a plan for the containment and research of the wreckage from the reverse tide as soon as possible?"

"Neither," Gao Wen shook his head and looked up in a certain direction outside the window. "The most important thing right now... is to visit a friend who is familiar and unfamiliar."

"Familiar and unfamiliar..." Amber's face was a little confused, but she soon followed the direction of Gavin's line of sight and saw the scene on the plain in the distance-among the rising smoke, the Deep Blue Well was magnificent. The shield was quietly covering the center of the battlefield. As the focal point of the entire previous battle, the barrier stood still to the end.

In the previous battle, the remaining defensive force of the Deep Blue Well attracted and resisted almost one-third of the Wasteland Legion on the entire Tarash Plain, allowing the troops responsible for guarding the "Terminal Tower" to successfully complete that. The mission was almost impossible to complete, and after the battle, the direction of the Deep Blue Well fell into silence.

It is so quiet now that Amber almost forgot the existence of this "Allied Force".

"...Why isn't there any movement on Veronica?" Looking at the quiet light curtain, recalling that there was no communication in the direction of the Deep Blue Well from the second half of the battle, Amber's face The expression suddenly became a little nervous, "Could it be that something has happened?"

As soon as her voice fell, the Monet terminal on the table next to her suddenly started with a "buzz", and Veronica's expressionless face appeared on the screen: "Nothing happened."

"Scare me!" Amber suddenly shook his spirits, staring at the holographic projection on the table, "Then why have you been silent, and you won't come out to report safety after the battle..."

Veronica was still expressionless, speaking concisely: "Resting."

Amber's mouth trembled, and he looked at Veronica's eyes suspiciously: "...how do I think you have an opinion on me?"

Veronica simply ignored Amber this time. Instead, she turned her head to look in the direction of Gawain. She bowed slightly in the holographic projection, and her voice was as soft and calm as ever: "I am unblocking the underground bunkers and opening them. A passage from the surface to the deep layer. The position of the entrance and exit of the passage will be sent later. You can enter the Deep Blue Well at any time. I will welcome you in the deepest part of the fortress."

Gawain nodded, but then he was a little curious: "Can't you get out? It's safe outside now..."

Veronica lowered her head slightly: "...Sorry, I can't leave the control center."

"Okay, I see," Gawain didn't ask further. "Then I will go over—this time we can finally talk face to face."

The communication was hung up, and the holographic projection above the Monet terminal disappeared into the air. Gao Wen turned his head and glanced at Amber: "Be prepared, you and I will go to the ancient fortress to see-see and see the glory of the Gangdor Empire What is the afterglow of civilization left over from the ages?"

Kohaku shook his head without thinking about it, "I'm not going, I think Veronica is interested in me..."

Then she was picked up by Gawain.

A moment later, a Dragoon fighter took off from the Northern Command Post and flew towards the Deep Blue Well under the **** of several other fighters and two Dragonborn fighters.

Looking down from the sky, the magnificent ruins left after the Big Explosion of the Deep Blue Well came into the eyes of Gawain and Amber for the first time.

An entire city has turned into a molten deep pit, and all the once glorious buildings and cultural symbols have become inextricable residues and wastes where the bottom of the pit is fused with rocks. The wasteland army that attacked the Deep Blue Well has been Under the influence of the force field of the blocking wall, they disappeared with the wind, but some of their remains are still scattered on the scorched earth, which is startling.

In the core place of this ancient Gondor country, there is no trace of "Gondo" anymore—except for the bottom of the deep pit, the crystal peak glowing under the light curtain.

That is the core, most essential, and primitive structure of the Deep Blue Well, a natural source of magical power—the ancient Gondor built a large number of extraction stations, load towers, fusion towers and other auxiliary devices around this source. , Used to absorb the magic power in the Deep Blue Well with the highest efficiency, but even the strongest human empire in the past is only a fleeting light and shadow when facing the energy of the planet itself. Now the ancient country no longer exists. The cracks in the network that existed since the birth of the planet are still erupting uninterruptedly.

The dragoons began to slowly lower their height.

Above the Deep Blue Well, the magnificent light curtain shook slightly, and then an opening was opened on its surface that was large enough for adult dragons to pass unimpeded.
