"The Colossus of Gunda?" Looking at the metal colossus that fell to the ground, firmly bound by countless tenacious divine vines, and its whole body was full of cut cracks, but still desperately resisting, Alaya whispered to himself.

Bubbles jumped up at that time: "What? Gundam Colossus? Got this kind of thing? Is it a Collector's Edition? ”

I pushed the girl aside and asked Alayah, "Do you know these lumps?" ”

Sister Angel blinked in confusion, a confused look flashed in her golden pupils, and she showed me an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry, Brother Sovereign, I ...... I don't know what to do. "I don't know what to do?" Sandora's eyes squinted, Alayya's answer was too strange.

The angel sister nodded seriously: "I don't know, this name suddenly appeared, I must have been in contact with relevant materials before, but they disappeared from my memory core...... It may be that the slumber of the year destroyed the memory. But such a powerful magical creation...... The level of technique has reached the level of the mysterious side of the empire, if it is created by other civilizations, it must be the ultimate result of those makers, and there are not too many civilizations capable of creating magical power creatures of this level...... However, there is no record in the public database. ”

"Could this have been made by the Empire?" Sandora asked abruptly.

"No......" I scratched my hair, instinctively thinking that this conjecture was not very reliable, "this thing has no ghost reaction at all, and it doesn't show any traces of the Empire's creation, isn't it something the Empire can tell at a glance?" ”

"But the mystical creations are an exception," Sandora shook her head, "not all Imperial artifacts have distinct characteristics, and not every Imperial artifact has a spectral reaction, and Raven has a third of mystical abilities that can be driven without relying on spectral energy. The amount of power used by Alaya is the same divine light as the Protoss, and it is the level of power of the ghost. In addition, there are many things on the mystic side that use secondary energy, such as arcane energy and elemental energy, with the advantage of the occult system in the correction of mathematical laws. Devices that use secondary energy can also have the same effect as spectral devices, so it can sometimes be difficult to tell if a mystical creation is a product of the Empire by the energy reaction, unless it has a distinct logo or serial number on it. Of course, if the design style has a distinctly imperial character, it will also be easy to judge. It's just these colossas in front of you...... I don't know if the Dao Empire has ever made such a thing. Their combat prowess is the biggest suspicion that they have something to do with the mysterious side of the Empire. ”

"The materials used to make it are not something that the empire has used...... At least I don't have any of this metal in my database. ”

Cutting a small piece of metal from the Colossus, crushing it into pieces in her hand, and scanning the structure of the metal shards, Sandora came to a conclusion. Anyway, it would have been more perfect if she hadn't stuffed those things into her mouth after making this conclusion.

"The occult department is good at distorting matter. Even to create utopian matter," Alaya crouched next to the Colossus, observing the flow of energy in the cavity, as he reached out and touched the cracks in the metal that were slowly healing on the Colossus. "Look. And that's something else. ”

As Alayya's fingers swiped, the metal section of the colossus quickly took on a crystal clear texture, as if it had suddenly turned into glass, and at the same time. Its irrepressible ability to repair itself also came to an abrupt end with the great change in its material base, and a low echo was heard in the cavity, and the flow of energy was also blocked by the degeneration of the conduction medium, and the movement of the Colossus was instantly weakened.

"Everything in the world is based on a simple set of constraints, or clusters of information, which are a complete set of descriptive information about elementary particles. Find the correction law of this formula. can change everything, and the ultimate answer pursued by the alchemy of the mortal race is nothing more than this," when it comes to her professional field, even the stupid and silly Alaya can talk eloquently, although she still has such a soft tone, but now she unexpectedly makes people feel reliable. "Changing the formula leaves traces of manipulation that can be reversed to find the original form of matter. Now I'm trying to reverse the material composition of this thing. Let's see what exactly it's going through during the manufacturing process. ”

Alaya said, pressing his finger on the colossus's chest, and a metal plate there immediately began to transform rapidly, first turning into a gray-white rough metal, then producing a crystalline texture, and then melting as if it was about to liquefy, the material form of the colossus changed rapidly, Lin Xue couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "...... Even in the scrap yard, this is the level of the veteran of the Five Dynasties......"

I think about it, too, how many times has this lump of iron lumps been reheated in front of me!

"There it is." Alaya suddenly whispered, and then stood up, a large sheet of metal on the Colossus's chest that had completely changed its shape, turning into a blue crystalline substance with a little pale and a dull color.

"The Depleted Spectral Crystal...... "Sandora said in a serious tone, "it really is an Imperial creation. ”

"There's no information about this thing in the database," Alaya frowned, "when did we ever build something like this...... Especially the mystical golems, I should know all about them. ”

"Maybe it's because the system is broken after sleeping for too long, but it's also possible that it's ......," Sandora looked up at the Sky Tower not far away, "Anyway, I don't think it's right. Imperial creations are in this place, but none of us know what they are, and the database is missing key information, and you don't even recognize how the colossus works: you shouldn't forget anything so crucial. Leave the Colossus here, get to the tower......"

"Squeak-" Sandora was just halfway through speaking, when she was suddenly interrupted by a sharp chirp from the ground, and the colossus, which was about to hang up completely, tossed and tossed for a while, making a strange sound in its body, and then countless crimson complex runes suddenly appeared on the smooth metal panel of its face, as if a rapidly refreshed screen, and a large number of runes quickly swam on the colossus's face, and at the same time, the cavity in the colossus's body suddenly erupted with dazzling white light!

"Your sister!" I immediately opened my shield, but there was a faster protection specialist present. Yilson easily summoned a pillar of light, completely enveloping the Colossus and the surrounding area of half a meter, and in the next second, the pillar of light was completely filled with the dazzling white light of the explosion.

The pillar of light dispersed. There was only a deep hole left in the same place: all the impact was focused by the pillar of light in both directions, and as a result, it blew through the suspended continent where the Sky Tower was located, and from the large hole left in the same place, you could even see the clouds slowly drifting on the other side of the earth. When the Colossus blew itself up, it was finally impossible to use the attack technique of identifying friend and foe.

"I now believe it's from the Empire." Lilina patted her small chest, "Self-destruct." ”

Putting aside all their speculations about the Colossus for a moment, the group soon came to the entrance to the Sky Tower: this magnificent building had an unexpectedly simple entrance, except for a row of semicircular arches about three meters high at the base of the sleek tower, which were not decorated, or even a row of black holes. Inside, there are deep, straight corridors lit with magic crystals.

"It looks more like a vent or a slag pipe in a building." Sandora couldn't help but mutter.

"It's also the first time I've known that there is an entrance here," Sagina said in surprise, "The back gate square of the Sky Tower is a dead place, and I don't know how many explorers in history have been wiped out by those terrible colossas. No one ever broke through the line to get to this position. Sona and I had only heard about it: we had entered through the main entrance. ”

"The main entrance is probably better than here." Lin Xue muttered casually. Walking through the "back door" that looks like the exit of the sewage pipe, he immediately covered his nose, "Well, it can't really be a sewer." What a big taste! ”

The passage was dimly lit, illuminated only by the magic crystals floating near the vault, and the smooth walls on either side were lined with tenacious vines: their heads poking their heads out of the grooves in the joints between the floor and the walls. The ground was different from the boulder square outside, paved with a layer of gray-white alloy-like material, which I don't know how many years had passed, but there was not the slightest trace of mottling on it. The surroundings are filled with plant decay and other strange smells of unspeakable origin. We had no choice but to open our shields.

"You can feel the magic fluctuations," Alaya emitted a soft glow, which greatly alleviated the problem of the dim corridor, and now that he was finally at his home turf, the sleepy insect seemed to be full of energy, "This position seems to be a component of a large magic array. The energy is converging forward in a regular pattern and then transitioning into another state...... There are several forks in front. I'll lead the way, and if I follow the flow of energy, I should be able to safely bypass any defenses that may exist...... Wow! ”

The angel sister let out a short exclamation and fell to the ground under the gaze of our family.

…… Should I say that I am accustomed to it or what, this kind of situation of heart like stopping water is really delicate, and I always feel that the moment Alayah fell to the ground, only one sentence came out of his heart: This world is really normal.

"It doesn't matter, right?" Sagina didn't understand this stupid angel after all, and immediately came up with concern, and I pouted while helping a certain flat wrestling grandmaster-level stupid cat up: "Don't worry, this is a natural phenomenon." ”

At this time, Alayah remembered to rub his nose and looked at me very solemnly: "Brother Sovereign, be careful, the ground here is very slippery, I accidentally fell down just now." "That's basically the nerd structure.

"It feels like you're all weird guys." Sakina muttered a few words and returned to the middle of the group again. The two half-dragon maidens, Xianzi, Lin Xue, Xiaoxue and Little Bubbles were protected in the middle of the team, and none of them could be counted as combatants, so it was better to protect them a little. Originally, we didn't have much idea of being cautious in this kind of place, but after confirming that those colossus statues were made in the Empire, and that there seemed to be some problems with the memory cores of all the Hilin Apostles present, Sandora felt a little strange at the moment, and decided to proceed carefully.

Of course, what made us decide to be careful was the prophecy of Lin Xue and Xiaoxue's mother and daughter: the secret hidden inside this Sky Tower was earth-shattering, and its defense system was not as simple as the colossians outside. The prophets have spoken so much, and we have to be careful.

Alaya floated in mid-air, acting as a searchlight while leading everyone around the forks in the road that they encountered halfway, I don't know how she judged the way forward, but I could honestly feel the energy around her. However, in his own perception, the flow of these energies was chaotic, and there was no pattern at all, and only an expert like Alayya, who knew the mysterious side of the empire very well, could find a safe passage from these chaotic energies. Under her leadership. We walked for half an hour without encountering any of the guards, and after rounding the last corner, the team finally broke away from the dark road that appeared to be a sewer, and the vision suddenly widened, and the semi-circular gray vaults and dim magic crystals turned into wide alloy corridors, and the soft and even light came out of nowhere, filling the space in all directions. The ground beneath our feet is no longer that off-white alloy. Rather, it was a milky white substance with a crystalline texture, and there were small shiny bright spots that quickly swam through these milky white crystals, following a seemingly regular trajectory through the entire corridor and disappearing into the distance.

"It's a peripheral part of a giant energy matrix." Alaya landed lightly on the ground. Bending down and knocking on the crystal, "Functionally it may be to provide a redundant energy buffer for the entire matrix, and if I'm not mistaken, all the corridors and passages in a fairly large area here are functionally the same. They are all parts of a matrix. This tower must require an incredible amount of energy to function. ”

"In other words, we're walking on a wire now," the shallow metaphor is off, but always surprisingly accurate, "It feels like a lot of things made by the Empire, and it's very large." ”

"After all, it's suspected to be an imperial creation." Sandora nodded, then said with a rather tangled face, "Anyway, I have to figure out what's going on: since this is something made by the Empire, I can't see it at all!" Even though many of the things on the mysterious side don't have the obvious characteristics of the Empire, they have already come here, and they have clearly touched the key structural parts of this tower. It's strange that I still haven't found anything related to the Empire, anyway. ”

Alayah flew into the air. Sensing the flow of energy around him, he happily flew to the fork in the road in front of him: "Brother Sovereign, here and here!" This is the gateway to the inner area...... Wow! ”

It's easy to hit the roof if you fly too high, especially if your judgment is impaired after twenty hours of sleep......

Little Bubbles happily rushes over to collect Alayya's feathers, and we are instructed by the Angel Sister to see a small door hidden in the corner of the hallway, and when the door is pushed open, a large hall appears in front of everyone.

Perhaps this can no longer be described by the word "hall", because this is already an indoor square!

It was a circular space with a visual radius of perhaps hundreds of meters, empty in all directions, the ground was paved with the same milky white crystals as on the other side of the corridor, and mysterious blue light streams wandered around on the ground, outlining a complete large array, and this array was obviously not all, because in the center of the hall there was also a huge crystal cluster, and all the light streams in the energy array eventually converged to the base of this crystal cluster, and then flowed all the way up to the ceiling dozens of meters high - probably to the second floor.

Except for the crystal cluster in the center of the hall, which had a radius of several tens of meters, there was not a single support column in the entire hall.

"This is what is known as the Assembly Hall." Sagina looked excitedly at the spectacular interior space, while Sona glanced back and said in surprise, "The entrance is gone." ”

The small door we had passed through when we had just come in had disappeared.

"Seamless spatial teleportation." Sandora knocked on the wall behind her, "This back is solid, the side door just now should be a teleporter, unless you brute-force the array here, you probably won't be able to find it." ”

"Wow! Such a big place! You can spread out and fly happily! Jingle Bell happily sprang out of my pocket, scurrying around in the air, and the mercury lamps flew out of the air, and the two winged fellows flew a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, and the little bubbles cheered: "Goo! She threw herself into the center of the hall: her attention was completely attracted by the huge crystal cluster in the center of the hall, her eyes were full of reflected stars, and the little guy happily climbed up the air along the crystal cluster, and began to hold an emerald green vigilance on it and slammed down, Ji Shanshan shouted in a panic below: "Come down!" You can't just mess around! ”

My sister hurried over to get the little girl off the shiny crystal: we all understand that Little Bubbles has a fanatical love for shiny things, but this place is a very important relic after all, and it won't be fun if she does break something crucial here.

After discovering that there was nothing else to care about in the rest of the hall, our attention was also focused on the crystal cluster in the very center. This thing seems to be piled up by a lot of colorful sharp crystals, with a radius of dozens of meters, and the surface is full of crystals crisscrossing and pointing to the air, Sandora scanned the internal structure of this thing, unfortunately we didn't find that it was sealed with ancient treasures and a little girl without clothes, and of course there is no old man who is ready to pass on his skills to you, it only has crystals in it, and there is a high-energy reaction. "If it explodes, it will be enough to destroy the world." That's what Sandora says about the energy contained in the crystal.

"Explorers have been to this hall, but through a secure front door," Sagina flipped through her notebook, and could see that although she had also been to the Sky Tower, she was still unfamiliar with this place: as a weak team, most of the two of them came here to work for other large teams, and it was impossible to have any in-depth knowledge of this kind of place, "Let me see, most of the floors in the Sky Tower cannot be reached by the regular route, and each floor can find a hall or room, and the crystal cluster in the center of the hall or room is a teleporterI have memorized here a few known start-up methods and sequences that I asked the old-timers about at that time. There is a console under the crystal cluster, through which you can teleport to other floors, and if you want to return to the entrance, you can quickly tap the crystal cluster several times......"

As she spoke, Sakina circled around the crystal and found what she was looking for: a two-foot-square, crystal clear crystal plate floating in mid-air.

There is a familiar cross-shaped emblem on it.
