Chapter 1005: The Key to Exhausting the Dead
(It's the beginning of the month, it's time to ask for a monthly pass, what did I do yesterday...... Asking for monthly passes and various tickets, as well as subscriptions and recommendations, okay? )
The timeline connects two events that no one had previously thought would be causally linked, and it is impossible not to lament the dramatization of life at times: our first direct encounter with the fallen apostles ends up in a big circle and is connected to their deepest secrets. 【,
Three years ago, the Salvation War was originally caused by the invasion of Azeroth by Bellavila, Occam and Savi, when the power of the Fallen Apostles had just spread to the territory of the current New Empire without the knowledge of God (of course, the scope of the New Empire's power had not yet extended to Azeroth), Bellavila was also a leader of the Fallen Apostles, she led a legion to invade the Azeroth World, trying to find the heart of the World Realm there, but was unlucky to encounter the Protoss Expeditionary Force, Although the outnumbered Protoss forces were wiped out after a fierce battle, Bellavira and their remnants were only a few remnants of their defeated army. Under normal circumstances, their own men and horses have suffered heavy losses, and the follow-up troops of the Protoss may have already heard the wind, no matter how you think about it, they should give up the mission at this time, but at that time they were still continuing their mission, risking being intercepted by the Protoss reinforcements and stranded in Azeroth, at first I couldn't understand what this was for, and Bellavira herself was also very confused: if you only need to find the heart of the world, every world world has it, and they don't seem to be looking for the heart of the world. You could have evacuated Azeroth, which was already unsafe.
Now the truth is revealed: in addition to finding the heart of the world there, they have a more important mission: to destroy the Green Star, and at that time, the Fallen Apostles' information was wrong, and they mistakenly thought that the planet in front of them was the Green Star.
They were on their way to destroy the planet Azeroth.
Judging from the three-dimensional map, the planet Azeroth is really similar to the green star, it is the same size, has active internal energy, and it may be on a "shipping course" with a high probability: according to Lin Xue's law. Green Star has the ability to sail across the world during its full duration. It is an ark of refugees, wandering through the realms since the collapse of the old empire, and the information of the Fallen Apostles may indicate that the Green Star will pass through certain universes, and they have found Azeroth on the expected coordinates when they arrive in that realm, and have confused everything: there is a maelstrom in Azeroth, and the fallen apostles, who were beaten by the Protoss, mistook it for an ocean phenomenon created by the Great Rift of the Green Star. It was the biggest oolong in history, but it nearly wiped out all of Azeroth.
However, I am afraid that Bella Villa herself is not aware of this whole incident, she is on the same side as us, and there is a Sylvia who is not very good at selling her teammates every day. Basically, Bella Vera's secrets have been asked by me and Sandora, but there is no such memory as "destroying the Green Star", which shows that she was calculated at the beginning. Savi was a warrior who was revered by Sandora, and although he was on the wrong side, he was not a cunning guy (and a cunning guy could not be thrown out to take the lead), so there was probably only one person who knew the truth at the time: Occam, the cunning former chief scientist of the Empire.
I lament the impermanence of the world, and the former united and glorious Apostle of Hilin has turned into a sly, insidious, and despicable group full of intrigues and intrigues of internal struggle. Bella Villa still maintains a basic conscience after the Fall. As a result, she is often ostracized by others, even if she has the identity of the emperor, Occam dares to calculate her as a lower level, from the previous conversations, I have found that Bella Vera is not very clear about the various secrets within the Fallen Apostle, partly because her memory was damaged after being reborn as Sylvia, and the other reason is that she has always been excluded from the larger group, the Fallen Apostle is a pure interest group that can easily use anyone as a tool: as long as that person has the value of being a tool. And it can be controlled.
Viska was used as a tool by the Fallen Apostles in a completely chaotic situation, and Bella Vera was in a better situation, but she was probably just a more valuable tool. 【wcm
|I||】
And how is the whole group of fallen apostles not a tool? Eighty percent of their members didn't even know what the "great cause" they were striving for was, and they gave their lives in vain, and the only one who finally controlled everything was probably the mysterious "adult".
"Occam died early," the eldest sister sighed leisurely (in the spiritual connection, of course.) Green Star has an extremely thin atmosphere on its surface, not even enough to transmit sound), and then finally stopped in front of a "rocky" wall that seemed to be indistinguishable from the surrounding one, "Actually, he almost found Green Star, his calculations are not wrong, in some historical branches that will no longer happen, Green Star should indeed appear in the world realm, and even in the same solar system as the planet Azeroth, in that route, The mages of Dalaran will see a green crescent moon poke its head out of the void rift in the arcane vision, followed by hordes of Fallen Apostle warships, which can be exciting, but a slight accident causes Green Star's interworldly engine to malfunction, and the restart fails, and eventually it falls into a world that is completely out of the course and falls on our heads. Well, here it is, the rock walls are hardened. ”
With that, she took out the black cube that had been cherished and kept for three years, and made a gesture on the rock wall: "This cube is a replica of the navigation key, I don't know how the original key of the road ended up in Occam's hands, he made a large number of copies of the key, this kind of navigation key can activate a certain access permission, maybe they want to dig out some secrets from here before destroying the green star, so they prepared this thing." But they didn't know how to use the key to the road, so they had to let the cannon fodder take these keys all over the world, hoping that Green Star could take the initiative to sense the existence of the key, well, probably so, I have to hold the key to trace something, but the demons who came into contact with this key back then were just some leaders, and there were too few things that could be separated from the limited historical line. ”
"Do you know how to use this key?"
I asked curiously, but Lin Xue threw the pimple over with her hand: "I don't know what to do, please, it's been tens of thousands of years since the first navigation key was made, and this one in our hands is just a replica, and the information connection is very weak." ”
Well, it seems that even a prophet cannot be omniscient, whether it is to peek into the future or to go back to the past. She had to at least know what it was. And there has to be an information connection as a key line, the key is a key line, but this black pimple is just a copy of the navigation key, and the information it can contact is up to the moment when Occam copies these keys, and then the things ahead, even if Lin Xue is fully powered, can only see some approximation.
But she told us a lot more, and now all we have to do is find out how to use the key.
I fiddled with the black cube that Lin Xue had thrown over, and I had fiddled with this thing a few times before. It is not good-looking, the surface feels a little rough, like an unpainted and unpolished iron billet, heavy in the hand, claimed to be the key, but there are no grooves and protrusions, it is a boxy metal bump, and some patterns of unknown meaning can be seen on the dark surface. Unfortunately, these patterns look more like ornaments than functions. The only thing about this thing that arouses curiosity. It has several holes of different sizes on one side and several narrow slits on the other. This is completely indistinguishable from the function of the key.
Tried to excite it with a small amount of energy, but there was no response, pressing back and forth, his hand hurt, and he smashed it twice on the wall with it, and the wall didn't open a passage, and Sandora hugged the black pimple and bit it. Frowning and saying it didn't taste good - it scared me into a cold sweat.
Tavel took the black bump in his hand, scanned it with his special ability for a few minutes, and shook his head at us: "The inside is empty, the shell has no structure, it is directly cast from a single component. ”
Now the situation is that we find the gate with the key in hand. But no keyhole was found, and theoretically no one knew if the key had to be inserted into the keyhole to be used. Everyone is very depressed, well, it is not just the word depressed can be described, after all, one step away from oneself is the ultimate secret related to the rise and fall of the empire, and what stands in front of you is just a pimple that is not much more than Ding Dong, which makes people gnash their teeth, which is basically equivalent to just opening a room with his girlfriend and being broken in by more than 1,400 people wearing red hoops, and the leader of the team is his future father-in-law......
You see, I'm in a hurry and can't speak.
Lilina held the black bump and touched it around, her face was full of seriousness, then she grabbed my sleeve, looked up and asked, "Boss, what are these holes for?" ”
I had noticed the holes just now, but Tavel said that the so-called key had only a single-component porcelain shell and a hollow cavity, and that there was neither a string of gears nor a bunch of wiring behind the holes, so he could only shake his head: "Maybe the demon poked it out with a needle when he was idle......
Lilina gave me a blank look and blew a few breaths into the row of holes on the edge of the black bump, of course, no sound came out, but her eyes suddenly lit up and she cried out, "Tavel, Tavel, air!" Give me an air environment! ”
Tavel seemed to understand something, but he was slightly stunned and showed a clear look, and then ordered his assistant to open a laboratory nearby, the laboratory was filled with an air environment equivalent to the standard atmospheric pressure of the earth, and we ran into the laboratory in a hurry, Lilina put the black bump to her mouth this time, and blew it gently, and suddenly there was a sharp sound.
She looked elated, changed a few more holes, blew several different tones, and shallow was also aroused, and gestured to press a few narrow slits on the other ridge of the square, and as her fingers moved on these slits, the sound coming from the square began to change.
Although since the player is Lilina, the combination of these tones is like hell.
"It's a musical instrument, boss, I'm amazing!" Lilina said happily, her face was full of praise, and I lived up to her expectations, and touched the brains of this black-bellied Lori affectionately: "I know it, let others blow it next time, it's ugly." ”
Lilina flattened her mouth: "......" and ran away to howl. But no one cares about her, what about this girl's pretend, I don't know what she really does cry like?
Sure enough, after waiting for a few seconds, seeing that no one came to pat and comfort, Lilina herself moved back in frustration: "And then? ”
"Tavel, how long does it take to add atmospheric pressure to the Great Rift?" I asked the glasses lady beside me.
"We could add an atmosphere to the whole planet," Tavel shrugged, "preferably, Green Star used to have an atmosphere, and simulating the same environment would increase the chances of success." The fastest will take about 30 minutes. We can send the last few planet remodeling vessels over. In addition to the scientific research base, there is no ecological environment on the Green Star, it is not afraid of storms, and it does not require the landing of the mothership to fill the atmosphere of the planet, so it should not cause the Green Star alarm. ”
Attaching an atmosphere to a planet in thirty minutes may seem difficult to understand to the average person, but as long as there are enough engineering ships and the right equipment, it is not difficult, and of course, this "inflation" process is a bit thrilling. Ten minutes later, an unprecedentedly strong storm erupted over Green Star, because the initial atmospheric diversion process was omitted, and the atmosphere that was quickly transferred to the gravitational capture range of Green Star collided unrestrained, forming a hurricane that spread around the world, and its strength was probably enough to overturn the entire city, but the hurricane was quickly suppressed, and the ravens used the power of magic to restrain the global air flow. Then start slowly channeling them. We walked out of the lab and found that we were able to breathe in the same normal way as we did on Earth.
"This door opens with a sound?" When I got back to the rock wall, I asked curiously, "It doesn't seem very clever, especially since this key is a whistle." ”
"Sounds like a primitive key," Sandora shook her head, "but you know." If you want to save a piece of information, sometimes the simpler the structure of the more reliable things are, they make the key into a simple structure of the whistle, perhaps to prevent the overly complex and sophisticated key from being damaged over time, as for whether this simple structure can produce a reliable effect, depends on the idea. ”
"And it's not just the sound that opens the door," Tavel said, fiddling with his inspection equipment. "When the key is blown, there is a complex set of vibrations, and there is a resonant relationship between its shell and the nearby rock wall, and sound is only the medium through which this resonance relationship is transmitted. When the key trembles at high frequencies, every two peaks of the key correspond to a trough on the rock wall, and the ratio between the peaks and troughs changes along a parabola as the frequency drops......"
"Ahem, I can understand something." I scratched my hair in embarrassment.
Tavel shrugged: "That is, this simple key is actually quite complicated to work with, according to the resonance relationship between each tone it produces and the surrounding rock wall, as well as the density of this layer of green matter on the surface of the green star, and the natural frequency of the key itself, this set of 'locks' contains ten to the seventeenth power of password combinations, if all frequency combinations are used...... It's at least a thirty-minute piece, and it's scary-fast. ”
Lilina burst into tears: she had just volunteered to use her musical cells to crack the door.
"Luckily, we can use the mathematical model to simulate the closest key," Tavel glanced at Lilina who was howling, "The subordinates have found the law of resonance, since the key is for intelligent beings, this set of resonance laws must follow some kind of 'rhythm', the subordinates have completed the calculation, there is only one way to combine." ”
In order to calculate the accurate resonance sequence, Tavel specially used a Xiling host, under the powerful computing performance of the host, it only took less than half a minute for us to get the key, and it is gratifying that the "fault tolerance" of this key is quite high, that is, each syllable only needs to be roughly accurate to trigger the resonance phenomenon, it seems that the designers at that time have fully considered this situation: the person responsible for opening the door in the future may not be a sound idiot, you can't let people open the door because of this......
Unexpectedly, it was Sandora who was in charge of playing the piece - she volunteered.
For the Apostle of Xiling, music is not a difficult thing, they only need to download each operation step into the core of the mind, and they can perfectly reproduce the sound of any musician, and the "score" cracked by the Xiling host can only be read directly by the same Apostle of Xiling, even if we see this score, it is impossible to play it without training.
To be clear, though, while it was easy for any of the Apostles of Helling to recreate the sound of a musician, for most of them it was difficult to understand the "art" behind it......
After a little preparation, Sandora stood in front of the crystal rock wall, closed her eyes slightly, and began to play the special "key".
When the clear and pleasant sound reverberates, we all involuntarily quieted down, not only to prevent the effect of the key, but more importantly, this song - there is really a force that resonates with the heart.
Cheerful, tactful, melodious, hurried...... The pitch shifts quickly, but each one is surprisingly harmonious, unobtrusive, and the unassuming black squares seem to contain incredible magic, even if it is just a group of simple syllables that can calm people's minds.
Perhaps this piece of music is not just a set of keys to open the door, but also a set of secrets.
I couldn't help but guess, and then my eyes fell on Sandora, who was playing the piece.
The blonde girl, the princess of the battlefield, the emperor of the ages, the leader of the race, all these heavy halos are gradually dissipating, when she closes her eyes slightly, immersed in the sound of music, quiet like an elf bathed in the morning sun, she stands in front of the rock wall, knocking on the ancient door with the flute of 10,000 years ago, at this moment, I was a little overwhelmed by this girl who gets along day and night.
It's beautiful.
Then Lilina jumped out of the strongest sentence: "It's going to blow for a full thirty minutes......"
Me: "......"
I want to beat her up, okay?
