Sword of Daybreaker

In the building of the Magic Technology Research Department, a comprehensive research room is brightly lit, a large holographic projection in the center of the room is buzzing, and a large number of images, numbers and annotated text clearly appear in the air above. Magician technicians and runemen wearing white short robes gathered around the projection device, while attentively paying attention to the changes in the image, while discussing in low voices from time to time, some technicians held the record board in their hands and kept wrinkling. Write the calculations on the eyebrows.

Jenny, the chief rune of the empire, stood between these researchers. Her long gray hair was pulled up high, and the light scars near her cheeks were now completely ignored. She was also paying attention to the holographic projection in front of her, but she was just a person. Frowning thinking, didn't participate in any discussion beside him.

Rebecca's voice came from the side, interrupting Jenny's meditation: "Do you see any problems?"

"...This is a very complex system. It is very difficult to understand its basic principles in a short period of time, let alone see any problems," Jenny shook her head slightly, her voice low, "The only one right now The good news is that this thing does not seem to be completely incomprehensible...Although the technology used by the Neumanns is obviously very different from ours, it seems that we still have a chance to understand its internal mechanism after at least annotated. of."

"In other words, their technical level does not necessarily exceed us by much, right? At least at the basic theoretical level, we are not much different from the'alien civilization'," Rebecca nodded, "What about another set of devices? What about the set of things that I first sent over?"

"That thing is relatively easy to understand. It seems to analyze the'background oscillations' in deep space through indirect observations of the magical oscillations of other stars. At the same time, there are a large number of auxiliary observation units to assist in this task, although the basic principle is still To be analyzed, but if it's just'building', it won't be a problem for us," Jenny nodded quickly, "The'comment' sent by the Neue people is very detailed, which is very useful for us to understand those blueprints. It helps, and..."

"And?" Rebecca asked subconsciously.

"And these blueprints should have additional reference value for us," Jenny said cautiously. "Although it is hard to say whether these things can be fully believed, but at least some specific technical problems are solved... I feel inspired. ."

"That's it..." Rebecca showed a stunned look, and when she was about to say something more, she heard the door of the research room being pushed open, and someone issued a low exclamation: "It's your majesty! Your Majesty is here in person!"

Rebecca hurriedly looked up, and at a glance saw the tall figure walking towards her, she immediately smiled and greeted her: "My ancestor, you are here!!"

"I received the news from here," Gawain nodded, reached out and rubbed Rebecca's head, and then at a glance, he saw the blueprints and floating around the blueprints displayed in the large holographic projection in the center of the room. His brows frowned slightly, "The Nuoes suddenly sent a large amount of'technical materials'? What's the specific situation?"

"Like what you can see, they suddenly sent a lot of blueprints without warning," Jenny on the side stepped forward, bowed slightly to Gawain and then turned and pointed at the blueprint on the projection. They said, "These blueprints belong to two systems, one is a detection device for observing the tremors of the deep-space magic tide, and the other... The comment says that it is the technical data of the'unified field of mind'."

"And these materials are not finished yet!" Rebecca added immediately, "Now the data is still being transmitted from the main antenna of Thorin. The scale of the supporting facilities of this'Mental Unity Field' is larger than we imagined. It’s amazing. Judging from the blueprint annotations and numbers, I’m afraid that less than one third of it has been sent until now..."

"The blueprint of the magic wave detection device and the unity of mind field device?! And it's a full set of blueprints!?" Gao Wen's eyes widened in an instant. He suddenly received a message that the Noyes had sent a large amount of data without warning. At that time, he guessed whether this "alien civilization" decided to send some basic things first to show its sincerity, just like the promotional materials released when selling goods, but he never expected that the other party would directly send a full set of blueprints, "They What else did you post?"

"So far, there are only information, more and more information," Jenny rubbed her hands a little cautiously. "We can't ask the other side about the situation, we can only receive what the other party sends first..."

Gao Wen's brows became more and more frowning, and his vision when looking at the blueprint projections became more serious than just now. Before the real cooperation has been negotiated, the core technology that can be called "top secret" is packaged and sent. This is far beyond the scope of "expressing sincerity." To view this matter from a human perspective, the information revealed behind this can only make people feel uneasy. Either this is a huge conspiracy, or this It means the situation is urgent.

Neither possibility is very flattering.

Of course, Gawain is not a Noy, nor does he know any real Noy. He does not rule out the misunderstanding caused by the way of thinking of aliens is different from his own, but now he can only use the three human Think about and deduct the problem from the perspective.

"Can you see anything?" He looked at Rebecca next to him. In terms of technology, this ironhead girl never disappoints. "How long has it been since the initial reception of the information?"

"It's been almost half a day," Rebecca nodded, then took Gawain to an equipment table not far from the center holographic projection, picked up the drawing printed on the table and passed it in front of Gawain. "Look at this set first. This is their'Magic Tide Observation Device'. The note says that this thing can indirectly calculate the background turbulence in deep space by observing the magical fluctuations released by the stars. Jenny initially judged this device. The principle makes sense, although this is a line of thought we have never considered."

Gao Wen took the information and swept his eyes slowly over it. He first saw a large-scale ring-shaped device, which seemed to be made up of a large number of segmented "components", like building blocks-like "ring segments." In between, many "towers" and "lenses" pointing to the sky can be seen, and in the center of the ring device, there is another huge facility, under which a large amount of data and annotations describe its function and principle. .

Following this drawing, there is a thick stack of blueprints for dismantling and subdividing all the structures of the ring device and the central facility. At the same time, each drawing is accompanied by a large number of parameters and annotations. Some notes also have the words "unfinished translation". Obviously, even the most professional star solvers couldn't handle the task that suddenly smashed their heads for a while.

Soon after his gaze fell on the subsequent drawings, Gao Wen realized that except for the notes, most of the content seemed to be incomprehensible...

This thing is too professional. Although he can discuss a few words with technical experts on the general technical direction or the level of certain theoretical conjectures, but when it comes to such specific technical details, he is really black. .

But this does not affect his majesty as an ancestor. Gao Wen just calmly fixed his gaze on Jenny next to him: "I think the text on this has not been translated yet, can you understand it?"

"I really can't fully understand it," Jenny said frankly. "Just from the general description, this seems to be a very reasonable device, and if it is only to observe the demonic wave, we don't have to fully understand it. The principle, all the construction parameters and technical details are available, and the Nuoyi people even sent out many alternatives when the main scheme cannot be realized. We only need to construct according to the drawings, and we are expected to complete this observation device. Of course, the specifics There may be a lot of practical troubles in implementation. For example, some components may not match our existing energy and data interfaces, but these are all solvable problems."

"...Is it feasible to construct only according to the drawings..." Gao Wen was serious and whispered to himself. He weighed a lot of things in his mind for a moment, but he did not say it for the time being, but instead focused his attention. On the other pile of materials on the table, "Is that the relevant materials of the'Mind Unity Field'?"

"Yes, this has been received so far," Rebecca immediately took the large pile of printing paper to Gawain, "Let me tell you, the translation progress on this document is even slower... the star solver. I only translated the comments at the beginning and the main idea of ​​the title of each component blueprint, because the information from the Noyes has been sent over, and the Thorin monitoring station has temporarily stopped the full-text translation of the subsequent files, but in Send the original information directly here."

Gao Wen nodded slightly while listening. At the same time, his gaze was already on the large pile of materials. He flipped through the opening part, and soon discovered something called the "Unification Field of Mind"... The scale of imagination is much larger.

This is not a single device completely different from the "Magic Tide Observation Device" in the first data. There are a large number of "parts" that seem to be independent of each other at a glance in the "Unification Field of Mind" materials he got. There are massive terminals called mind connectors, large-scale mental interaction centers, and complex connection structures. , And even... there are "background materials" with planets as a reference blueprint.

In addition, the Noyes also sent a large number of technical documents that were not blueprints. Because of the use of a large number of over-professional vocabulary, the star solvers were temporarily unable to translate them. The dazzling alien texts There are innumerable numbers and arithmetic symbols. Just looking at it makes people dizzy.

Gawain can only guess the role of those alien technical documents. He guessed that the Noyes were probably trying to make the "Lorens" understand the principles behind the "Unified Field of Mind".

They are really trying to teach us .jpg.

Gawain shook his head, tossing aside the weird sensation that came up in his mind for a moment, and his eyes returned to Rebecca and Jenny: "What do you think of this information?"

"It will take a long time for us to understand this huge and complex system. Its scale... has exceeded the previous'Magic Tide Observation Device' by more than ten times," Jenny looked serious, "The Nuoes are sending two copies of the technology Obviously, they have also deliberately made a distinction in the data. If we only need to construct according to the drawings on the'Magic Tide Observation Device', then in the'Mind Unity Field'... they seem to want us to understand its principles. "

Gao Wen didn't speak, but his thoughts fluctuated in his heart.

He was trying to understand the motives of the "Noy people", trying to find possible traps and uncontrollable factors from it, but in the end he found that few factors in the whole thing were controllable.

Rebecca next to him sighed faintly at this time: "In fact, when I first heard about the unity of mind field, I thought it was a huge device, something like a force field transmitter. Create a large-scale'shield', and then let everyone get in when the magic wave arrives. I really didn't expect it to be such an exaggerated thing. Hey... the global protection system is really global protection. NS……"

"My initial thoughts were actually similar to yours." Gao Wen sighed slightly, and then his gaze fell subconsciously on one of the pictures in the pile of materials.

It was a planet, and the Noyes used this planet to demonstrate the effective scene of the entire "Unification Field of Mind" and its true...scale.

Nodes are all over the world, and the network covers the whole world. The Unified Mind Field Generator is not a device, but a planetary facility group constructed by thousands of giant nodes.

No wonder the Noyes took 1,400 years to build this thing.

Of course, in this "four hundred years", the special development process of the Neue civilization and the influence of their social changes should also be taken into account. This is a civilization developed in the heritage of the pioneers, and they are relatively backward in technology. At this stage, they learned the truth of the magic wave. Therefore, the start of this magnificent project is likely to occur in an era of low productivity. At that time, it may take a century to build a node, just like the silver elves in the past. It takes only one year to repair an energy station left by the original elves.

But in any case, even in Tarrond, which was once in its heyday, such a large-scale thing as the "Mind Unity Field" could not be built overnight.

Jenny noticed Gawain’s serious face. She obviously knew what the ruler of the empire was worried about. This was also what she had been worried about since just now: “To build such a thing, let’s first assume that the Noy’s hair There is no problem with the technical data. Assuming that all the technical difficulties in the construction process can be overcome in an instant, just to build this thing, the scale of this project may take a century."

Gao Wen slowly put down the information in his hands: "And this is still under the premise that everything is ideal Biology has an effect. This project is so amazing that we can’t rush to pour the full power of the alliance into it.”

Jenny and Rebecca did not say a word, but nodded silently. Although the technical information sent by the "Noy" made them excited and delighted, they did not lose their heads because of it. They understood very well what Gawain said. That's right.

And Gao Wen is obviously worried about more than this.

"We also need more scholars, Typhon scholars, silver scholars, scholars from other countries in the Alliance. We need enough smart people to analyze every technical detail in these documents," he said quietly, "our'unusual "Star Friends" really suddenly sent a "great gift"..."
