Chapter 1582: Open

We already know the origin of Lost Deities. The reason for the strange technical blockade in this world is finally clear. As the fog disappears, everything is so simple. The most unexpected thing for Sandora and I is the location of this world. In the middle of the abyss!
Not only in the middle of the abyss, the world was sealed off by the abyss spirit! This place is under the eyes of the fallen apostles, and even part of the fallen apostles was one of the builders of the original shelter! Reality is indeed more dramatic than fiction, because at least the fiction has to be reasonable, right?
The universe was not discovered for 70,000 years. Sandora and I had to admit that the abyss of the former heyday was a terrible guy. She can call all the computing resources and high-end equipment of the entire empire, and she can naturally create countless wonders. It was only her that started the tinder plans one after another in the short century when the Empire was about to collapse, and the success rate was still so high, but in addition to the protective shield made by the Abyss, the world survived to this day. It is also inseparable from the efforts of these survivors.
Regardless of whether they are the "Thousand Guardians" of the Elves, or other races willing to accept "fading knowledge", all the survivors in this world have paid too much a price for the continuation of civilization and fire. Some of them may not even Cover the entire civilization with dark means without breaking your heart, as the bishops say:
Everyone is helpless, and everyone bears sin.
This is a world that never knows who is right and who is wrong. Everyone is just taking on their role. The tech revivalists are the pioneers of civilization as a whole, but the lost theology has to suppress them in order to protect the fire of civilization. Who is right? Who is wrong We have to blame our fate.
Religion and obscurity overwhelm the people. Let 99.99% of people on this planet know nothing about the truth, but religion and ignorance have also saved the people, so that they don't have to face the despair behind the fog, just hug such an ordinary day to live It's enough to die, at least for most people. This kind of life is the most suitable: rather than die in despair, live in ignorance. Of course, there are people who choose to accept the truth. Those revivals of all kinds-no matter whether they will regret that they are too curious to unveil what should not be uncovered, anyway, they know how cruel the world is. Fate is fair to everyone, because it is unfair to everyone.
"Now the fallen apostles in the abyss zone have been eliminated. Pollution is still there, but it is adjusted to a harmless state by the abyss spirit. The next step is to find a way to lift the blockade of this universe. Oh, the abyss spirit refers to the second generation. "I waved to the four old bishops in front of me. "But before we have the biggest question-what exactly is that forging furnace? What did Abyss Spirit tell you to keep it for?"
I remembered the ancient cemetery-like ruins on the edge of the galaxy, the hidden fortress of the planet, and the strange and unpredictable hole in the core of the fortress. In addition, there is a ring of shards transmitted in front of himself and Sandora. The last one is particularly puzzling: How did the Abyss Spirit's Tinder Plan contact Wiskar? That little lunatic seemed to be doing nothing but smashing and burning ... Was her ring of stars destroyed by the abyss? There doesn't seem to be much conflict in time: because we don't even know when the ring of stars was destroyed ...
"Tenjin Forge ... We know that its body is a planetary warship. Some Elven exiles fled to this world in the first place," Bishop Gale frowned, recalling 70,000 years ago with the elf's long life. The details are also quite difficult. "The lord made this planet warship and gave it to the hands of the white elves and tree elves. She said that the planet was not just a colonial ship. It was a storehouse at the core of the planet, but we never went there. Core: It is protected by a fully enclosed shield. The adult said before leaving that the core of the Tenjin Forge must never be opened rashly, it is a one-time storage house, which holds the most valuable things, At the same time, it is the switch of the "safety barrier". It can only be opened after the external pollution has faded or the crazy apostles have died. In fact, one of the reasons we persist to this day is also to protect this forge-there Before the Lord leaves, we promise to protect her legacy until the new Apostle of the Spirit appears again. "
It seems that these elves do not know the information related to the ring of stars, but they mentioned the most valuable thing? I immediately became interested in it, and it was the "most precious" thing to Abyss. This is extraordinary!
"You know how to open the Tenjin Forge, right?" I glanced at the gale. "Sandora and I went to the Tenjin Forge a few days ago, and you got the news right away."
"Yes, we have the keys of the forge in our hands," said the pope of science and technology, and he and his sister stood up at the same time, "because we are the keys."
I shared with Sandora: "You are the keys !?"
"Here is the key," Chenfeng (the Pope of Magic) pointed to her head, and the girl's face was filled with a heartless smile, "It's near our brains. There are three keys to open the forge of Tenjin, One of them is buried deep in the church and is connected to an ancient one. The other two are implanted into the brains of the two popes, activated by ideas, and connected to the soul. Consciousness and misuse. Only when three keys are turned on at the same time will the Tenjin forge appear from a different space. This system is left by that adult, and even the scientists of the empire may not be able to unlock it. The key has been passed down from ancient times to now, and so far it has been in the head of many popes anyway. "
"To put it plainly, we are the carrier of the key. The mission of this century is to take good care of it. Although the previous Pope did not have the opportunity to activate the key in his lifetime, this custodian is essential," the pope of science and technology patted His sister's hair and petting on her face, "In the Republican era, the keys were kept by the patriarchs of the elves. In the empire, the keys were kept by the late Tree Elf heads. In the federal era, the keys were and The Federal Speaker of the United States kept it, but kept it outside. Later we discovered that this is a huge hidden danger. The possibility of theft of the key or the loss of the custodian's control exists. Therefore, in the era of theocracy, the key was kept by the Pope and the custody-through implantation in the brain .But our technology is limited, and we can only make a very simple modification of this empire equipment. At the time, the races with the highest technological standards did their best to make it co-exist. However, there are still some sequelae ... hehe. "
"Say tribute to your sacrifice," Sandora solemnly drifted into the air, "you are the heroes of the empire. Then quickly activate the key, and then go to the imperial medical warehouse to take the implants in your brain Come out, it's not good for this thing to coexist with the body for too long. "
"Okay, we're heading underground. To find the old one, which works only when three keys are activated within ten meters of each other at the same time," the pope of science raised his face, with a smile on his face, "I never thought Morning breeze and I will become the pope of the key to start-for so many years, life with the key has been the 'habitual responsibility' of previous popes, and almost everyone feels that the key will never start. "
Other bishops also stood up. I saw a variety of expressions on that old face, with relief, joy, and a little daze and helplessness. After 70,000 years, this long mission finally came to an end, and they put their whole life on. On this task, many of them may have thought that this task would never be completed one day, but today it has finally reached the end ... Dazed and helpless, the empire owes them 70,000 years of life.
Sandora's voice sounded in her head: "I suddenly felt that the Apostles of the Spirit were no better than the mortals in front of them. They were as strong as the best warriors except for their weakness."
We came out of the reception room and found that many people had gathered outside. Most of them were old fairies with pale hair and a few young fairies. That was the successor who was selected from the "sage sequence" after the original church founder also died. There are more than forty cardinals. They are the people who know the whole truth in this world (of course, in the Elven Three) There are also many elderly people in the clan who know what happened in the past, but either they are about to die or they are just the civilians who fled, and they don't know the core things).
I did not see Celine: Although regrettable, she was not eligible to participate in this matter, so she was temporarily sent back to the rest place.
Eighty percent of the group were old beards and old ladies with beards. They were the elf queen, elf prince, elf general, and various young and promising elf leaders. Now they are hand-held. I notice that there are dozens of complicated eyes focused on myself, and my eyes are so important. Fortunately, after years of strength, I have been able to face my responsibilities and obligations, so I only need to The silent crowd nodded and motioned to Bishop Gale to lead the way.
We walked through the ancient and majestic central corridor of the cathedral, through the large murals depicting the gods of technology and magic, through the layers of arches and curtains, and proceeded to a deep corridor carved entirely of gray and white stones. , A long, inclined channel appeared in front of everyone. Judging by the direction of the advance and the structure of the building, I have now left the area of ​​the church and entered the mountain of this magnificent mountain: the church is perfectly integrated with the mountain, and the second half of it is carved directly on the rock. I originally only I thought it was an ordinary architectural wonder, but I did not expect that the entire church turned out to be the gate of the tunnel in the mountain!
The oblique downward passageway came to the end, and it was already in the center of the mountain. Here we saw an unusually large rock hall. The entire hall was carved from gray and white stones. The walls and the dome were made of solid alloy frames. Reinforced, although the walls are full of original atmosphere, high-tech traces can be seen everywhere: bright modern lighting equipment on the walls, security devices and sentry gun stands at each entrance. Four can be seen in the four corners of the hall Data terminal-like operating devices, where a few clergy work.
In the middle of the hall, there is a large elevator cabin, which is the most technologically-sensing thing here. The silver-white elevator cabin is installed on a circular base protruding from the ground. Although there is no psionic response, the elevator cabin is obviously Made of Imperial Super Alloy.
"The entire mountain has been transformed, filled with explosives everywhere. If a disaster occurs, we will detonate the entire mountain, even if we pull everyone together, we will not let the forge be exposed to the lunatics outside," Bishop Feng Gale As the crowd walked towards the elevator cabin, "Some of the building materials here are made of Empire-made standard metal parts, but we dare not use Phantoms. And all the Empire equipment with cross-Void communication functions have been sent to the Tenjin Forge. Please go inside The lift is old, but it works well. "
The third key is located deep in the ground. Anyway, it seems that the elevator has been descending for more than ten minutes before finally bottoming out. After the door opened, I suddenly realized that it was an underground garden in front of me!
This is obviously a grotto located deep underground. But the artificial light source at the top of the cave creates a daylight-like light, while the ground of the cave is full of flowers and plants. In the center of the open space is a strange "tree" like an entangled vine, except for the rise and fall behind us. Outside of the cabin and the lighting above, there seems to be no trace of technology here.
"We have built a long-lasting ecosystem here with special magic, even if there is a disaster on the ground. It will endlessly, and this constant magic effect will maintain the vitality of the giant tree, making it like "Mother tree survives forever," the gale pointed to the strange "tree" that looked like a vine and a tree in the center, "the third key was fused with it."
Sandora was curious: "Don't you say that the third key is fused with an ancient one?"
"That's right," Chenfeng smiled like a flower. "This is the product of the fusion of the three spirits of the elves. We used a tender branch of the mother tree, the life magic of the white elves, and the programming skills of the high elves to create this mother. Tree replica-the real mother tree has left with an ark fleeing in the other direction, so we can only keep its twigs, but this is also good, this is our mother tree! Yes, although No hope ... there should be another group of tree elves who fled on a planet fortress called 'Green Star'. They didn't follow us the same way, then ... "
"They are alive. They were rescued two years earlier than you," I finally remembered at this time, the tree elves who hadn't told this exciting news to the scene, "you can be reunited soon. In addition, your mother tree is also here. Although it almost died on the journey, we resurrected it with the power of the goddess of life. Now the tree elves are one of the most prosperous dependents of the new empire. "
"Oh-" There were bursts of joy in all directions. Nearly half of the people here were tree spirits, and they were tree spirits who had lived for more than 70,000 years. Nothing made them more excited than the news now. , A wrinkled elf grandma even subconsciously gathered her hair: "I ... can I see him again? I remember when he set off he was the pilot of Green Star ... Is he still alive, After all these years, I ... I have become like this, so old ... "
"Everything will be rewarded," Sandora solemnly floated to the highest place. "Rest assured, we have reunited many dependents from the old empire era and refugees suffering from empire error. The Apostles of the Spirit have never been I will shirk responsibility, and I will not forget the heroes. In the name of the Empire Head, I promise that all races will be rewarded. As for now-let us finish the work at hand and start the key! "
The two popes nodded and approached the large tree that was tens of meters high under the attention of a group of people. The latter looked at the plant but apparently could sense the changes in the surrounding environment. The two just approached the giant tree. The latter's A pale green halo quickly permeated between the branches and leaves, and then many twigs stuck out from the tangled vine trunk, and were wrapped around the two popes to form a structure like an operating table. I heard someone in the bishops' group whisper: "70,000 years, finally wait until today ... it still feels like dreaming." "Is the key activated like this? Are we not in a hallucination?" "What do you want?" An old confused, suspicious for a lifetime. But speaking ... it seems a bit hasty to start the key like this. "" Should we hold a ceremony to show solemnity? "" I also think it should be a bit of a memorial ... By the way, remember to record this scene now. "" Will you put on some music to help? "" Get off. "
Sandora and I: "..."
Are these elves persisting to this day with this spirit of pleasure?
Starting the three keys was not as dynamic as I thought ~ EbookFREE.me ~ everything was done quietly, I only saw the light flowing between the branches and leaves of the big tree, and after a moment the two popes left the console At the same time, a slight mechanical friction sound came from the ground. A circular hole with a radius of more than one meter suddenly opened on the grass, and a crystalline cylinder emerged from the ground.
The crystal cylinder is a fully sealed protective cover. In the center, a small empire-style device is quietly suspended. It looks like a data terminal, but it is more narrow and longer, and like all equipment made by Abyss: There is no logo on the surface.
The gale stepped forward to open the protective cover, solemnly took out the small device inside, then presented it to Sandorla and me, and bent down deeply: "The space blockade near the forge has been closed Dismissal, this is the commander to wake up the host of the planet. The General Tree Elf is in strong wind and obeys the ancient orders to return it to the Empire Heads. "
I took this extraordinary ancient creation, and the wind sighed with relief:
"Finally ... we are doing our duty."
(Hey, I'll go and ask for a monthly pass! I saw the calendar today and found that something almost happened. It's time!)
