Chapter 611: Form of Existence (6)
The walls were made of several layers of material, with steel and special cement accounting for the majority of the interior. There were also huge square blocks of pale blue, which were glued to the walls as a layer alone. The special material is a certain kind of rock. I don't know if it's because of the care, but for a long time, I haven't even been able to find a trace of tenacious moss on this pale blue stone.
"It seems to have taken several years to build this wall. "The great project was built with the help of the Webley family and the various hired people, so you can imagine how strong it is." All the major families have this kind of thing, but the form and craftsmanship of the construction are generally different. Inside was hollow, filled with the huge cannons of the battleship. Powerful enough to equal the full firepower output of any small nation. ”
"After all, it is an arms giant company, and in addition to not being short of money, there is never a shortage of weapons and ammunition. The headquarters of the Webley family was a huge powder keg in itself. Except for some high-level inside, no one knows how many lethal things are stored in their major warehouses. ”
"Every giant company has characteristics that are relevant to their business, and it may be that they are developing in a specific direction, taking a path almost to the extreme. "And that pale blue stone, which has a special texture and can absorb the impact force. It is said that they are mined from extreme areas and then transported back to the empire in batches by airships, where they are used to build various high-intensity buildings. ”
Escorted by several armored vehicles, they soon arrived in a huge parking lot. Cassia they were not allowed to get out of the car, they could only wait on the car.
"It wasn't that strict before, but it's been like this lately. "Atoring is used to it, and reminded Kasia, "Eldest Sister Lin will be over soon, and then we will turn on the steam main valve and rush back to the military school as quickly as possible." The odds of Deiryn's side not being very good. Otherwise, her nature in the Webley family would have become the same as that of the eldest sister Lin. Although it is the same father, when there is a number, there will be a priority in the tolerance for making mistakes. ”
Kasia and Selmer nodded, and when they thought about it, it seemed that there was such a thing. Because of the tolerance and protection of Jetrin, on the other hand, it is also a warning to others. The more power is used, the majesty and convincing power of nature will gradually decline.
"Patriarch, the people are already waiting in the parking lot, do you need to go over and have a look?" asked the secretary and chief Gabri, looking at the person standing by the window of the tall building, as he sorted out the papers.
Tall and thin, with half of his hair white, and a little vitality still left on his body. With his hands behind his back, he looked through a huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of him at the cascading buildings outside, not knowing what to think.
The gray and white scenery fell into the eyes of this old man who had already entered the twilight, there was not much brightness, and it was only the beginning of the day, about eight o'clock in the morning. But light is no longer much necessary for an operator like him.
"No, you can see the parking lot here. The old man replied slowly, as if his own world line had been extended for some time, "Personal contact will not do us any good. The elders are all leaning towards the Holy Emperor Hall, and rushing over now will only allow me to stay here for a shorter period of time. ”
With a smile on his face, Gabriel put a stack of papers neatly on the table and put them in the file bag.
"Besides, we don't know if he has any actual connection to the crazy girl. I don't do it as a thing of chance. The old man spoke almost to himself to the glass in front of him, "With Ye Jielin maintaining a relationship with him, we will still have enough room for maneuver in the future." All that's missing now is time. It's too short, it's too short. ”
Tired interjection, Gabriel had already put the papers that had been piled up yesterday back on the table, waiting for the Webley patriarch beside her to look at them.
"It's really too short. Probably after the initial preparations of the day, Gabriel replied with a smile, "In less than sixty years, the span has set a new record for the empire." According to Avalon's speculation, this time will be even faster in the future. But it is still unknown whether the empire will have a future!"
"No one knows. The environment of the Houxiang Continent is also destined to ensure that the silence above will not last forever. The left and right phases are not the same result on the continent. The other two super-large countries have also come through step by step in this way. It's okay in normal times, but with the unstable factor of Red Star, no one can take advantage of it. ”
The old man turned around at this time, walked to the table and sat down, took a sip of water from his cup, and asked Gabrie, "What are the red stars?" I think both the seminary and the Avalon should be observed. It's been almost a year. ”
"The third red star. The results came out the day before yesterday, and I should have handed it to you in the form of a document. Gabri replied, "Good news and bad news." The Third Red Star has appeared several times in history, from before the establishment of the Empire. The impact will be much smaller than that of the other red stars. But there are accompanying reports from Avalon's side. ”
"Here. Gabriel pulled a document from the file shelf and handed it over.
"The period of the Red Star's appearance between ninety and one hundred and thirty years is a normal fluctuating number. This time, less than sixty years after the last war, there is a lot to study and explore in it. Avalon's side is still scrambling to observe and calculate the final result. Gabriel explained in a gentle voice, "There is a worst possible outcome. As you know, patriarch, so far, we have observed a total of five red stars, all of which are different and have different effects on the natural environment. Avalon speculated that there might be a sixth red star. The third red star will arrive at a staggered time, but it is actually because of the attraction of the sixth red star, and it is only 'thrown off' in advance. ”
"It's a funny thing. The old man looked interested, "It's just that the future has little to do with me." ”
Gabriel nodded understandingly, and just as she was about to walk out of the room, a voice behind her caught up.
"By the way, you can mobilize more help to Ye Jielin in the future. As for how many people it is, you know it in your heart. The elder group is also doing the same thing, and the people who have always been cultivated in the extreme region seem to have faintly improved their identities by one level. As a businessman, I won't accept unfair trading. ”
"Got it. Gabriel replied and closed the door.
Shortly after Gabriel left, the patriarch had finished reading a document and got up from his chair, went back to the window, and looked into the parking lot.
"The Sixth Red Star. He elongated his voice, like the end of a song, "The geographers and historians who are drilling here and there have something to do." Of course, the most troublesome are the theologians in the Holy Emperor's Hall. At the end, I couldn't help laughing, probably because I thought of something happy.
