Sword of Daybreaker

It comes from the starry sky.

Gao Wen looked at the shield of the kingdom's guardian in front of him. His eyes ignored the weathered and rusted metal accessories covering the shield and fell on the silver-white metal plate that was the main body of the shield.

The dimly shining silver dots on the metal plate still pulsate slowly like life, just like breathing, it has no vitality, but it seems to have been "alive" for millions of years.

After knowing more about the secrets of the "Kaishen Fleet", after roughly confirming that the metal came from the starry sky, after speculating that there may be a connection between this thing and his "satellite body", Gao Wen looked at it. He couldn't help but express more emotions and thoughts.

He shook his head and drove out all the irrelevant thoughts in his mind. Then he glanced at the amber standing next to him, then withdrew his gaze, put his hand on the shiny silver alloy body, and left his own spirit The power spreads to the inside of the metal as he did when he communicated with the "Eternal Slate".

In the first few seconds, nothing happened. Gao Wen felt that there was only a huge emptiness at the end of his spiritual strength. The ancient starry sky was empty inside. There was no new fleet battle report, and no ancient pioneers left it. The information of future generations, but the next second, Gao Wen suddenly exploded with a loud noise in his mind!

He instantly lost his perception of his body, and his five senses and six consciousnesses seemed to be completely misplaced at this moment. As a human, his perception ability was replaced by some more high-level and more complicated "perception", which he could not handle at this moment. This heterogeneous information then felt that his consciousness was stripped and linked to a new "container". His senses began to be "overwritten", refreshed again and again, calibrated again and again, and finally, A much larger data stream, completely different from his original satellite body, successfully established a connection with him.

He heard a consciousness directly make a "voice" in his mind: "Visitors enter the sky system ... confirmed as the only connection. Temporary privilege escalation is in progress. Temporary authority has been granted."

Gao Wen stabilized his spirit. The fierce and turbulent sensory dislocation inevitably brought a certain amount of panic and tension, but as a satellite spirit who has long been used to being hung in the sky and opening an "inhuman perspective", he is here After a lot of battles, he determined that his mind still belonged to him, and there was no sign of tampering or control. He began to look for clues in the darkness that were helpful to the current situation.

There is only a darkness, or a hazy curtain of chaos, he ca n’t see or hear anything, but he can feel that there are many entities around him that are connecting with the “container” where he currently lives. This "Container" seems to have opened some access rights to him, but due to human's thinking logic, he could not use this right smoothly in a short time.

However, this is not a problem. He has experience in establishing connections with the satellite system. If these things are left by the Anshen fleet, then there must be something in common between their systems.

After several attempts, Gao Wen finally grasped some tricks, he felt that his closed senses began to loosen, and with this sense of looseness, things other than darkness appeared instantly in front of him.

A perspective overlooking the earth.

Gao Wen was just startled in his heart, and almost thought he was back to the status of "satellite essence", but soon he confirmed that his consciousness was still free, and he should be able to "return" to the body at any time. Then, he discovered this The angle of view overlooking the earth is very different from the previous picture seen through the monitoring satellite

The midpoint of the perspective has changed! The continent, which was originally at the center of the field of view, is now above the entire field of view, and below the field of view, there is a large ocean!

Soon he realized the reason:

I entered another space facility myself. The orbit or main monitoring perspective of this space facility is different from his previous "satellite perspective".

There are other space stations or satellites still operating outside the atmosphere of this planet! !

Gao Wen controlled his slightly excited mood, and began to manipulate his new perspective very strangely. His eyes glanced across the South Loren, the huge forest islands of the elves, and he looked at the endless ocean. In the scrolling atmosphere, he first looked at the sea towards the southwest of the mainland.

A faint artificial building appeared on the edge of his vision.

It is an artificial facility that can be seen in space!

In a flash, a series of messages emerged in Gao Wen's memory: In the ancient times of elf inheritance, the original elves came across the sea from the western mainland. They found a high tower on the endless ocean and recklessly entered it ...

The position of the tower is in the southwest of Loren, on the endless ocean!

Did you see the tower that the original elves found at sea?

However, Gao Wen soon discovered that he could only see a small part of the facility, and he could only see a small part of its base and its huge shadow cast on the sea. He can only see so many giant islands that rise in the ocean, and there are a lot of neat extension brackets that seem to glow with metal luster.

When he tried hard to extend his gaze to the southwest, a cold synthetic sound entered his mind: "Wrong, unable to activate the c-16 area, the subsystem is offline."

Gao Wen was stunned, and tried to move the viewing angle again in the direction of the pedestal, but the prompt in his mind immediately came again: "Error, the C-16 area cannot be activated, the subsystem is offline."

This system sound from nowhere made Gao Wen think about it. After a moment of thinking, he began to move his gaze in the other direction

...

In the vast space, a lively planet is running around a gas giant planet that emits endless energy.

The steel sentinels left by the ancient ancestors still loyally guarded the world, although they were scarred and outdated.

Above the planet, outside the atmosphere, large and small space facilities operate silently. After many years of space stations and orbiting satellites float in the darkness, in this place full of cold and dead, these have been continuously operating for thousands of years. Thousands of years of ancient installations are maintaining a minimum of communication and data collection work, and among them, the largest one is still asleep

It encircles the whole planet like a rainbow, and thousands of miles of steel body are covered with scars and almost extinct dim lights. On the surface of this giant ring around the planet's synchronous orbit, some areas are covered with heavy armor, some The transparent polymer dome can be seen in the place, a long-abandoned living or research facility, and all of this maintains an almost eternal silence in the dead.

Starlight from distant space shines across the endless darkness on this ancient giant ring of space, slightly illuminating its armor and those cabins sinking in darkness.

But suddenly, a small part of this giant ring of space "woke up", and on the side facing the planet surface, several lights were suddenly lit, and the corresponding ring-shaped compartment also showed a luminous light. The maintenance robot that hibernated for millions of years has been drilled out of the dormant warehouse. The sophisticated and advanced detection drone is moving fast along the slide rail inside the hoop. This behemoth seems to stretch out, as if it will be in the next second. To break away from this long sleep.

However, this awakening process quickly stopped and the area where the light was turned on was only maintained at a small area inside the ring. The other structures of the entire giant ring remained dead, and there was no response in the darkness.

On the side of the giant ring facing the earth, outside of a cabin structure shrouded in darkness, there is a huge gap. Radial tears extend from the armor cladding to the polymer dome. Some fragmented fragments are still Floating near the gap, the internal airtight door has been automatically blocked, the energy system has been offline for many years, the sparks and smoke have been dissipated in the depths of space, leaving only the scary scars and a few drops of light Golden blood ...

...

"Error, the c-18 area could not be activated, the subsystem is offline."

"Takeover failed, error, unable to activate c-18 area, subsystem is offline, standby system is not responding."

Continuous prompting sounded in the "mind", and Gao Wen finally gave up his futile efforts.

His eyes fell on the end of the ocean in the southeast of Loren, where he was far away from human civilization, opposite the endless ocean, he could already see a winding coastline outline.

He recalled the information he had previously obtained from the Kraken and Selena Gell offices

Seven hundred years ago, Govin Cecil and the last storm priests made a mysterious voyage. They first advanced east of the Loren mainland, and then, with the help of the Kraken, went to the southern safe route ...

In the southeast of the Loren continent, the exploration team of Gavin Cecil discovered a new continent. In the depths of that continent, there was a giant tower ...

The tower seems to have some connection with the giant tower that the elf ancestors saw on the southwestern ocean. When Gavin Cecil entered the depths of the mainland alone, he was most likely to climb the tower and be in the tower Got some kind of "revelation" ...

Now, Gao Wen is almost 100% sure that he has seen the new continent.

The information that had originally existed only in intelligence was confirmed, and the evidence that had been annihilated in history was now witnessed by him.

A new continent southeast of the Loren continent exists! The continent Gavin Cecil visited that year was just across the eastern sea of ​​the Silver Empire!

But he can only confirm the existence of that continent, and cannot see the situation deep inside the continent. Although he now has a wider perspective, he still cannot break through the limitation of the observation range.

In the tower on the ocean, he can at least see the base and part of the tower, the direction of the mainland ... he can only see the coastline.

Gao Wen's gaze moved from east to west, and from west to east again, and whenever the field of vision reached the end, a sound of the offline subsystem came from his mind.

This is different from the situation when using satellites to observe the earth. When using satellites, there is no such prompt. The margin of view is the margin, and there will be no false alarms.

The subsystem is offline, so it ca n’t activate other regions, and it ca n’t activate other regions, so it ca n’t observe things outside the field of view. The giant tower even observed targets farther away.

But for some reason, most of its structure is currently offline, so that Gao Wen can only activate part of its "lens".

In the peculiar state of non-human senses, Gao Wen slowly pondered that he could not "see" his state, nor could he determine his surroundings. With only one perspective towards the earth, he could only speculate To determine what you are connecting to now.

This may be a larger on-orbit facility than satellites, with more complex structures and functions. It may be divided into several modules, and each module can operate independently. This can explain the problems of damaged areas and subsystems.

So ... can he figure out what went wrong, or try to fix it? For example, start an automatic maintenance function or something ...

Gao Wen knew that his thoughts were a bit whimsical, but he still issued a subconscious command in his mind, he did n’t know how to ask or order, so he could only try slowly:

"How is the subsystem now?"

"Error, unable to query subsystem."

"Is there any maintenance plan?"

The system prompt sounds back in silence.

"Is there any redundant system for that subsystem that can be replaced?"

The tone is still silent.

Later, Gao Wen tried several different questions, but he still didn't get the answers he wanted.

The so-called subsystem seems to be completely damaged, and the voice that responded in its own mind does not have any available repair programs. It may even be bad in itself, so that when faced with certain problems, it is simply connected. Responses are lacking.

Finally, Gao Wen reluctantly asked the last question: "How exactly did the damage happen?"

This time, the prompt sound that was silent for several rounds of questions and answers unexpectedly responded, and Gao Wen immediately heard a voice sound in his mind: "Keywords captured ... After the query is completed, the system log begins to play."

Before Gao Wen had time to come up with an idea, he felt a flower in front of him, and the next second, he saw a new scene in his vision:

It still looks like a picture overlooking the earth, but there are some symbols and text with parameters around the picture, showing the planetary data and the energy reading of the giant planet at the time, he realized that this is a copy from a long time ago Observation records, and infer that this thing has been running automatically without his "satellite" intervention, and continues to collect data on this planet!

With these emerging ideas, he began to watch this long-term video record seriously.

At first, there were only nearly static land and atmosphere in the image, and this picture lasted for almost half a minute.

Then, a glimmer of glory suddenly appeared in Gao Wen's field of vision!
