These parts may even have "eyes".

"I'm a little nervous... I'm a little nervous again..." Amber muttered, her eyes kept darting around, "I always feel that this ship can 'feel' us..."

"Don't scare yourself." Gawain turned his head and glanced at the nervous half-elf, and walked forward calmly, "Let's go back outside quickly."

A group of people quickened their pace in the corridor. They quickly passed through the connecting passage and the gates that were wide open. It took a short time to pass through the area in the ship that they had slowly explored before. Worried about any accidents, such as a pile of warning traps and automatic weapons suddenly appearing in the corridor, but fortunately, such accidents did not happen, and they soon saw the road leading to the "steel land" The gate, the dark and chaotic "sky" outside the gate gave everyone a more reassuring feeling than the brightly lit places inside the spaceship.

Everyone returned to the "Steel Land". Victoria immediately found the photo crystal she had set up on a nearby platform. She carefully placed the crystal that might store important information close to her body, and then looked at the backbone of the team. : "Your Majesty, what shall we do next?"

After her actions in the Tower Against the Tide, she knew that her majesty, who had a legendary experience and a lot of mysterious knowledge, could recognize the characters written by the sailors, and even understood many uses of these ancient "heritages". Of course, she was also curious about this. But loyalty and trust let her put aside the doubts in her heart, and treat all these as unsurprising established facts.

Gawain glanced up, recalled in his mind the blurry picture he saw on the malfunctioning terminal (maybe it was a navigator?), and walked towards the distance: "Here, I suspect that this Orientation is the 'docking' area when the spacecraft is docked."

The group immediately followed Gawain's footsteps and walked forward. At this moment, there was another vibration from the depths of the giant spaceship, but this time, everyone seemed much calmer than before.

The ship is slowing down, and it may also be adjusting its attitude at the same time-the ship seems to have an independent gravity generator, so that these changes in the hull are not obvious to everyone, but one thing is certain, it is "docking" Getting ready.

At this moment, a gleam of light suddenly appeared in the darkness outside the shield, and Mary, who was walking on the outermost side of the line, looked up subconsciously, and suddenly let out a soft exclamation: "Ah! Something popped out there Already!"

Gawain immediately raised his head and followed Mary's line of sight. In the hazy darkness, a large-scale structure was gradually emerging—it was a huge polygonal structure with jagged edges. The general outline is a bit like a snowflake, and due to the distance and darkness, its details cannot be seen clearly, but its vaguely revealed style is undoubtedly the same as the giant ship under everyone's feet. On the surface of the body, unevenly distributed lights can be seen. Those lights illuminate a part of the land, while the rest of the area is completely shrouded in darkness.

The next second, the huge steel structure that emerged from the darkness began to "sink" slowly towards the edge of the spaceship, and Gawain reacted accordingly: the spaceship under his feet was adjusting its attitude, and it was heading towards the huge facility. There is its "home port".

Melita ran a distance to the side, her body was covered by the light curtain at the same time, she quickly turned into the body of a dragon, and a deep and majestic voice came from her mouth: "Everyone come up, we better hurry up , this ship may be docking soon—it has a limited time to stay, and the time we can explore is limited."

Gao Wen and his party quickly climbed up the broad back of the giant dragon. Melita flapped her huge wings and flew directly on the surface of this ancient spaceship. She adjusted her posture carefully in the space formed by the ship's shield, and A thrilling height quickly swept over many facilities and platforms on the deck, and the edge of the spaceship was soon faintly visible on the structure.

"What's that?" Amber, lying on the back of Melita's neck, poked her head and looked down, as if she suddenly discovered something.

Gao Wen immediately walked over, following the direction of Amber's finger, he immediately saw the situation below, his brows were slightly frowned instantly.

It was an area that no one had explored before. It was located on the polygonal edge of the ancient spaceship, which seemed to be some kind of interface, and on the silver-gray alloy deck... Gao Wen saw something that looked like plant remains. things.

Huge branches, dry and twisted vines, huge leaves scattered on the deck, and some small shrubs or flowers growing tenaciously among the plant remains—those huge plant remains are obviously dead For a long time, however, those things that stubbornly drilled out of the wreckage were obviously still alive, and they were full of greenery, growing wantonly under the light brought by the spacecraft's lighting system.

"...It looks like a very, very, very huge...plant," Melita's voice came from the front, and the dragon's tone could not help but be a little startled, "And it looks like those plants The thing is only a part of that plant...My egg hatcher, look at the thinnest branches, each one is like a beam...I don't think the giant Thorin tree is necessarily so big!"

"Looking at the wreckage of a giant plant, there are also some small plants growing out of the wreckage..." Gao Wen was equally astonished, he whispered to himself, suddenly seemed to remember something, and turned to look at Kamai Er, "I remember you mentioned before, when you saw this 'steel land' for the first time and looked at it from a distance, you saw something 'hanging' on its edge, right?"

"Yes," Kamel also saw the huge vines and dry branches and leaves that were gradually approaching below, and he nodded slightly after recalling, "I should have seen these things at the time—but they were far away at the time. Far away, I didn't realize that they were actually... a bunch of dead plants?"

"Those structures like vines or roots seem to have been torn off, or twisted off with great force," Amber looked at them for a long time, pointing to the broken plants on the edge of the spaceship, "Look, there are many Visible tear marks - and the twigs and leaves are clearly dried and fallen from a larger individual."

Gawain nodded thoughtfully, and at this moment, Daniel on the dragon's back looked up into the distance, and the old mage's expression became serious: "Everyone, I think...we have already seen the 'bigger' individual ' is."

"Ah? What are you talking about..." Amber muttered subconsciously, then raised her head and glanced at the dark space next to her. The next second, her expression froze and her eyes widened, "What the hell! !!"

The huge ancient spaceship finally completed the final attitude adjustment and deceleration, and in front of it, the "home port" finally showed its clear posture in front of the uninvited guests. A large man-made thing is floating in the darkness. Compared with the spaceship under the feet, that thing can really be called a "steel earth". How big can it be?The human eye is no longer able to judge. Even the superhuman with the strongest eyesight can only see his iron-gray alloy surface extending infinitely in the darkness, engulfed by the sparse lights and mysterious phantom light in the distance. The edge of the "steel land" is the "port" connected to the spaceship, a "connecting belt" that presents an irregular polygon and fits exactly with the edge of the spaceship.

What made Amber exclaim was not the "ancient giant structure" floating in the darkness, but the things on that "port".

It was a tree, a huge tree that had been dead for an unknown number of years and fell on the ground, covering the sky and the sun. It fell there, and its grand canopy covered the entire port area, even covering the vicinity of the port. Many roads and facilities, the leaves and many branches on the canopy have long since dried up and disappeared, but the remaining structure is still magnificent, even reminiscent of a giant city with layers, and most of its roots have been broken. Because it could not penetrate the strong alloy of the sailor, it turned into wreckage scattered and collapsed on the port, covering the entire ground. The whole giant tree fell at the end of the port without root support, and one side of its crown A small part extended beyond the "giant structure"—that corresponded to the plant remains on the edge of the spaceship under everyone's feet.

And among the huge and astonishing ancient wreckage, a lot of greenery can be vaguely seen, which are the plants grown from the nutrients of the wreckage, or... just the "echo" produced after the death of this huge giant.

Melita let out a low growl, and even the giant dragon who had lived for a long time couldn't help sighing after seeing this scene: "I have never seen this thing before... the giant tree of Thorin seems to be smaller than it One lap."

"This thing is definitely not here from the beginning, and the style of the painting is not right," Amber quickly judged, "It looks like it 'dropped' here from other places, and I don't know when it fell. It's not alive - it's obviously dead now anyway. And the spaceship we're standing on is docked where this giant tree died, so it 'brought' some of the wreckage on the deck... Seriously, I guess What is this thing?"

"It's not difficult to guess, Amon has described to us more than once what his 'small courtyard' looked like," Gao Wen said in a deep voice, "There is a giant tree named 'Reincarnation' in the center of the kingdom of God, with There is a city named 'Life', the roots of the tree are coiled like vines, and a large tomb is entwined in the vines, named 'Death'-in fact, the giant tree of Sorin was influenced by the trend of thought generated by this mythological description, so it became Grow into the form you see, and what we see now..."

Before he finished speaking, Amber on the side consciously continued the second sentence: "It's probably the original version."

Afterwards, Amber paused for a moment, and then continued: "This time I can go back and have a good chat with those two people in the disobedient courtyard. We first discovered Mirmina's home, and now we saw Amoen's reincarnation. The tree died in the ruins of the voyager...and judging from the traces at the scene, the tree almost hit it directly."

"That's not the key. The key is why this tree is here... As the wreckage of the Kingdom of God, how did it fall in the remains of the voyager and float over? Or was it brought here by the spaceship under our feet?" Gawain frowned and said in a low voice, "Theoretically, this kind of impact shouldn't happen... Wait, impact?"

He stopped suddenly, but the scene he saw from the monitoring log of Sky Station appeared in his mind——

Surrounded by powerful energy and holy brilliance, the giant deer rushed into space from the surface of the planet, and resolutely crashed into the space station left by the voyager.

If this giant steel structure floating in the darkness and chaos in front of you corresponds to the Sky Station in space, if Amorn corresponds to his kingdom of God... Does this seem to make sense?

When the body of the god chooses to hit the space station left by the voyager in space, the kingdom of God left by him also hits the "home port" left by the voyager in the deep sea at the same time. A study of the gods concluded that the gods and their kingdom of God are essentially one body with two sides.

The more Gao Wen thought about it, the more he felt that this was very possible, but at the same time he couldn't get rid of the strange feeling in his heart - Amoen probably didn't know all of this, and didn't know that when he bumped into the sky station, the god he left behind what happened in the country.

He didn't even know the existence of the spaceship cruising in the realm of the kingdom of God and the home port of the spaceship.

While speaking, the ancient spaceship was gradually approaching the port ahead, and the "giant tree of reincarnation" that fell on the port was pressing down like a black cloud of astonishing scale, making everyone who witnessed all this unable to hold their breath, Mei Li The tower quietly lowered its height, carefully looking for a suitable landing spot on the edge of the spaceship, while Gawain recovered from his contemplation, raised his head and stared at the direction of the giant steel structure.

Like the ancient spaceship, the steel giant did not respond to the voyager identification signal he released.

That thing... is a "hollow shell" on a larger scale.

The giant dragon landed slowly on the edge of the spaceship, and almost at the same time, a moderate vibration came from under Melita's feet, and there was the sound of some kind of giant locking device being activated in the empty "heaven and earth".

The spacecraft landed at the "home port".

Chapter 1285 The Intersection of Clues

The sound of some kind of mechanical locking device starting came from the depths of the earth. The self-operating spaceship had completed the docking with the self-operating home port. The incoming low hum faded away—it seemed the ship's systems had gone into hibernation mode, and it was receiving supplies and inspections from its home port.

After putting down the "passengers" on her back, Melita returned to her human form in a burst of light curtains. She looked forward a hundred meters away—there was the edge of the original spaceship, but now it has merged with the port of the home port. Connected together, the spaceship shield at the corresponding position has also completed the fusion with the shield of the home port itself. At this moment, what is presented in front of her is a smooth avenue, which can directly walk to the "home port" that is almost like an artificial continent.

"Shall we land there now and take a look?" She turned to look at Gao Wen, "It's just that we don't know how long this spaceship will stay here, in case the ship suddenly leaves during our landing and exploration... ..."

"It will stay for at least twelve hours." Gawain shook his head slightly before Melita finished speaking. He looked up at the connection between the spaceship and the port, and there was a huge holographic projection lying between the deck and the connection. In the meantime, there was a line of jumping and flashing characters on the projection. Others couldn't understand it, but he could see it clearly. It was the progress of the spacecraft receiving engine calibration and shield charging at the port. It seemed that although the owner of this place The system has been damaged, but just like the lighting facilities everywhere are still operating normally, some basic functions of the "home port" are still operating normally-although it seems that they have all been affected to varying degrees.

Everyone in the team was already used to Gao Wen's "understanding" of the legacy of these voyagers, so they didn't have any doubts at this moment. After knowing that there were still twelve hours to act, everyone immediately stopped wasting time and followed Shang Gaowen walked towards the astonishingly large "home port" in the distance.

Huge dry branches, broken vines, and huge leaves almost as large as the roof were scattered around them, and the "Giant Tree of Reincarnation" that was bigger than a city leaned over the port facilities in the distance. The canopy of trees with vacant and incomplete branches is like an intertwined and ferocious iron curtain sky, which brings a huge sense of shock and oppression just by looking at it—everyone's eyes can't help but look up at the sky that covers the entire port. Canopy, Mary, who was the most courageous and softest in the team, even trembled a little. It wasn't until Daniel couldn't stand it that he released a high-level calming spell on his apprentice, and the poor female mage finally calmed down.

Gao Wen was also looking up at the canopy of the giant tree of reincarnation, looking at the dry branches faintly intertwined into a giant city, he imagined the process of this kingdom of God colliding with this legacy of the voyager, and also lamented that Amoen But no matter what, this majestic tree of divinity is dead after all, dying in this silent ruin in the dark depths, and the fragments of the remains are scattered everywhere, whether it is the pollution of the reverse tide or other Nothing...has nothing to do with this dead tree.

"Looks like the Kingdom of God of War, the 'Great Tree of Reincarnation' is not polluting to us," said Kamel, who was floating near Gawain, and raised his arms to the side, directing his evocation hands to dry some The plant fragments were collected and placed in a small box floating behind him, ready to be recovered as samples, "I just don't know if these things will 'dissipate' after entering the real world like the things in the Kingdom of God of War... "

"It's been more than 3000 years since Amoen left the godhood. Although he was not as thorough as God of War at the beginning, after such a long time, the divine influence left by him should have dissipated," Gawain said casually, "and even The divinity in himself has not dissipated completely, and there is no possibility of any spiritual pollution remaining in his kingdom of God—this is the relic left by the sailor, and the relics of the gods that fall on it will be purified in just a moment. harmless'."

"Is it 'purified'..." Melita looked around thoughtfully, "Perhaps this giant tree of reincarnation died of 'rejection' during the process of being purified—look at those huge vines , some of them showed a tendency to entangle surrounding facilities, but they withered and died during the entanglement process, which indicated that this tree was at least alive when it just 'hit' here, but it is a pity that facing the power of the voyager... It didn't even struggle for long."

Gao Wen didn't speak, his eyes fell on a high alloy tower on the edge of the port, where withered and dead vines were entwined, but in the depths of the wreckage, tiny leaves, flowers and plants grew out, in this withered and dead Some places stubbornly show their little vitality-and these tiny plants are everywhere in the remains of giant trees farther away.

They even become a small ecosystem indistinctly.

Modil also became interested in these plants growing from the remains of giant trees. His instinct as an adventurer allowed him to ignore the weird and oppressive environment here. He came among the huge plant remains and climbed up to the withered The branches and ayahuasca carefully observed the vegetation growing inside, and turned to others and said, "These things don't look like our 'earthly' plants, but other than that, there seems to be nothing special about them..."

"It looks like ordinary flowers and bushes. They grow from the remains of the gods after death, but they are just mortal things." Melita also observed the plants that grew from the remains of the giant tree of reincarnation. She came to the conclusion, "The giant tree of reincarnation is also a 'tree' in essence, and after it loses its divinity and dies, it will also retain a huge amount of nutrients, which are enough for it to grow new 'children' from the corpse , and even continue to maintain a small-scale ecosystem... It’s just that 3000 years have passed, and I don’t know how long the vitality in this corpse can continue.”

No one can answer Melita's question, and I'm afraid that Amon can't explain it in person. What they can do is to observe the surroundings as carefully as possible, keep recording video data, collect as many samples as possible, and in the process Zhong followed Gao Wen's footsteps and continued to walk towards the depths of the port.

They arrived at the area covered by the canopy of the giant tree, and the huge plant remains scattered around them also reached a peak - countless roots, vines, branches and leaves, and dead wood fragments spread all over the steel land, and even piled up into small hills And the canyon, some dry vines hanging from the canopy are intertwined like a forest, and new "offspring" vines are attached to the surface of the vines, withered death and new greenery are intertwined in an incredible way, and Under this spectacle of intertwined life and death, there is the cold and hard steel land left by the sailors 180 million years ago.

A large number of original structures of the port facilities were covered by the remains of the giant tree of reincarnation. Only some street light bulbs floating in mid-air were still operating as usual, illuminating this "dense forest" that should have been dark. Gawain led The team walked in this dense forest. Fortunately, every member of the team has a certain strength, and the harsh environment here did not affect their footsteps much.

Amber's figure was at the forefront of the team. Although the Shame of the Alliance showed her cowardly and fearful attributes along the way, she was not ambiguous when she really used herself. She acted as the most agile person. The petite figure of the scout ahead flickered forward in the light and shadow of the dense forest, constantly bringing the information ahead back to Gao Wen.

Like a sped-up eyeworm.

A slightly unreliable association flashed through his mind, and Gao Wen then put these messy thoughts behind him. At this moment, Amber, who had gone to investigate the surrounding environment, suddenly ran back again, with a smile on his face. With an exaggerated expression of astonishment as if seeing Rebecca learning flower arranging.

"Come here and take a look!!" The "half-elf" rushed over like a gust of wind, screaming loudly, "There is... there is something in front! I thought I was wrong! In the open space ahead... "

Gao Wen, who was walking at the front of the line, was taken aback by Amber's sudden and exaggerated movement, then he casually pulled the guy aside, and walked forward with quick steps, saying casually: "Don't be so surprised, In the end..."

Before he finished speaking, he had already passed a dark brown dead vine that bulged like a wall under his feet, and the vision blocked by the plant debris opened up, and the scene not far away came into view, and all the words he wanted to say behind were blocked back into his stomach .

Footsteps sounded from behind, and everyone in the team also rushed up from behind. In an instant, Gawain heard several low-pitched exclamations and inhalations—everyone looked at the not far away in astonishment. An open land, looking at a small wooden house standing quietly on the open land.

A cabin!

"House?!" Even Daniel, who was sullen all the time, couldn't hold back for a moment, and stared at the simple hut in the distance with his eyes wide open.

The hut was obviously made of materials from the surrounding area. Although the rough-processed planks and rattans were not very beautiful, they looked sturdy and durable. It was located in an open area among the remains of the giant tree of reincarnation, and the surroundings happened to be unobstructed. It seems to prevent the fallen branches and leaves from the canopy of the giant tree from destroying the house, and among the twisted and stacked plant remains not far from the wooden house, you can see a large number of unattended berry bushes and berry bushes. Other bushes of unknown species, unlike the random vegetation in other nearby places, seemed to have been carefully maintained by people--you can also see scattered fences and crooked wooden posts around them.

But it all looked like it had been abandoned for years.

"This is... traces of people living there!" Victoria couldn't help breaking the silence. She looked at everything not far away in surprise, and then turned her head to look at her ancestor who was a great adventurer, "Ancestor, Your... ancestor? What happened to you?"

Modil stood next to Victoria, and at some point he seemed a little dull. The old mage stared blankly at the hut in the distance and the scene around the hut. It took him a long time to finally hear Victoria's call. He muttered in a low voice with a confused face on his forehead: "I...I don't know...I feel as if I have been to this place before, but I forgot, I forgot something very important...I seem to..."

Modil's reaction made Gawain's heart move instantly, and lightning-like associations popped up in his mind. At the same time, Amber, who was looking around to observe the surrounding environment, suddenly discovered something, and shouted while pulling his arm. Said: "Hey! Look over there! Look at the distance! Those tower-like facilities and the connection structures between them!"

Gao Wen blinked, and slowly looked in the direction of Amber's finger.

He saw another wider open area some distance away from the hut. There were a large number of tower-like alloy facilities extending from the steel platform, pointing straight to the sky, and between those alloy "towers". The ingeniously and complicatedly arranged beams are connected to the vault, forming a large three-dimensional structure that looks like an antenna array and some kind of decorative dome, and all of this is hidden by the nearby plant debris, so that he didn't know it at the first time. They were not found at all.

He stared in that direction for a long time before turning his gaze back to look at Amber's eyes. The two looked at each other for two or three seconds, and finally said in unison: "A scene in the phantom of sand and dust!"

That is exactly the place shown by the "illusion" that Amber extracted from the depths of Modil's memory, and it is the place where Modil and the "Twin Elves" met.

It turns out that it is actually here, in the depths of the deep sea, in the "home port" of the voyager, among the wreckage and ruins of the "giant tree of reincarnation"!

Many clues finally closed quietly here, revealing a scene of "answers" that everyone did not expect. Even Gao Wen himself was stunned in front of these dramatically closed clues, and his eyes slowly turned to The small wooden house on the open space not far away, that simple and simple residence... at this moment seems to be the focus and core of everything, stirring the ancient truth and the possibility of the future.

"Victoria, take care of Mordir." Gawain turned his head and said to the "Ice Queen" beside him, and then walked towards the quiet hut. Behind him, Amber consciously followed without saying a word.

Gawain came to the hut, this simple residence only responded to him with silence, there was no movement in the hut, it seemed that the former occupants here had been gone for a long time - he stretched out his hand, and slowly stroked the rough wooden door, Although the wooden door made of "sacred wood remains" is somewhat mottled, it is still intact and solid.

He saw faint scratches on the wooden door, and after brushing off the dust on the surface, he saw clearly the contents of the scratches—it was nothing earth-shattering, it was just some animals and plants drawn with simple strokes, and Some simple but vivid scenery.

Gawain took a light breath, and pushed open the door.

The scene in the hut came into view, and the plain furnishings were unobstructed—two old and simple wooden beds, some shelves and living utensils of the same wood, a low wooden table in the corner, and a few A bouquet of flowers that has been withered for many years.

Gao Wen's eyes slowly swept across the room.

He didn't see a living person, but he didn't see a corpse either.

He only saw a pillar in the center of the wooden house, with green vines winding along the pillar. At the end of the vine, two small pink and white flowers growing side by side were swaying slightly, and around the pillar, at the root of the vine, there were a few Fragments of weathered and broken clothing.

Chapter 1286 Long Letter

Amber's head came from behind Gawain's arm. She blinked her eyes and stared fixedly at the scene in the cabin. Her gaze finally fell on the central pillar, on the two plain-looking flowers. On unremarkable pinkish-white florets.

"...Is this really the place where Fierna and Leierna lived...I mean the 'real' elf twins..." She turned her head to look at Gawain, and said in a somewhat uncertain tone.

"The clue points to this answer." Gawain said in a low voice, and stepped into the cabin. The cabin was a bit low and narrow for his burly figure, but in such a small room, he could still see that there was a time here. It is a home full of warmth—whether it is the carefully crafted living utensils or the dry bouquet with only a few black wrecks left on the corner table, it seems to remind him of what it looked like when there were people living here.

Amber also walked in, followed by Kamel, Melita, and Daniel. The small room suddenly became a bit crowded, and the people who entered afterward looked at the room with wide eyes. But among them, only Kamel clearly knew the story about the pair of elf twins 1000 years ago—the former disobedient stared at the vines in the house, and whispered after a long time: "It turns out that you Always here..."

"It seems that there is a long story behind this," Melita said softly, and then she glanced at the overcrowded hut due to the influx of many people, "I'm afraid the fragile building structure here is not suitable for so many people inside To carry out search activities, I will go out to check the surrounding situation first—I seemed to see something interesting in the distance before the spaceship docked just now."

"Let's go out too," Daniel said in a deep voice, "I'll take Mary to search around to see if there are any other valuable clues—Mary, don't be dazed, let's go."

Melita, Daniel, and Mary left, and the hut suddenly seemed much more spacious. Gawain nodded to Kamel and Amber who stayed here: "Let's search separately, if they have lived here for hundreds of years ...then there should be some message left."

"I think I've found the 'information'." As soon as Gawain finished speaking, Amber beside him raised her finger and pointed to a wall not far away. Under her prompting, Gawain finally noticed that there seemed to be something on the wall. Faint scratches, "It seems that there are words, and it's all over the wall."

After Amber finished speaking, before Gawain could speak, Kamel had already floated towards the wall. The ancient disobedient waved his hand, and a bright white ball of light appeared in the air out of thin air. It was dispelled in an instant, and the faint scratches on the wall became clear all of a sudden—they were indeed handwriting all over the wall, perhaps carved on it a long time ago, and the years have not completely weathered it. The walls made of "wreckage" and the dust covering them did not completely cover up the handwriting. Gawain's eyes widened instantly, and his eyes found the beginning of these handwriting. This "letter" written in Elven language was finally the first Presented to the reader's eyes for the first time:

"To those who come after - though we're not even sure if anyone will actually come here, and whether the next 'person' who will come here will read the writing and understand everything we've said , we can only hope fervently that you are the ones we have been waiting for and that it is not too late.

"Our names are Fierna Baishuang and Leierna Baishuang, from the Silver Empire. As the consultant scholars of the Gondor Empire's "Rebellion Project", our duty is to analyze the mystery behind the existence mechanism of the gods, and find out where the gods are. The internal mechanism of the gradual madness in the process of civilization development, and try to find a way to make mortals resist natural and divine disasters from these mysteries...

"Because of a serious experimental accident, we sisters were trapped here, and now hundreds of years have passed. During these hundreds of years, we were cut off from the outside world, trapped in a deadly dangerous environment, but extremely Fortunately, we have found a safe haven in this terrible place - whether we want to admit it or not, this "sanctuary" standing in the dark seems to be the very kind of force we are trying to fight. The huge remains of the sacred tree... It seems to be the main god in the belief of the elves, the god of nature, the "giant tree of reincarnation" of the kingdom of God, Amorn...

"...And around this tree of the kingdom of God, which withered and died due to unknown reasons, is an ancient ruin that mortals can't imagine-exhausting the knowledge and wisdom of our sisters, we can't think of who built this amazing tree at what time. It is a shocking spectacle, and it can float among many divine kingdoms, and even become the cemetery of the 'Giant Tree of Reincarnation'.

"...During the days when we were trapped, we spent many years exploring this place, exploring the giant tree of reincarnation and the steel world outside the giant tree. We couldn't find the way home, nor could we find the giant tree of reincarnation The cause of this 'stranding' and death, but we have not found nothing - in the hundreds of years of activity in that steel world, we have found words, pictures, signs, and some... 'terminals' that can display data.

"During the long and difficult learning process, we summed up the meaning behind those sporadic materials little by little, and it took a long time before we finally extracted some useful information from those scattered words and logos:

"'Sentry'—this is the name of this steel world, and it was an extremely ancient and advanced civilization called 'The Voyager' that created all of this."

Gawain's eyes became sharp instantly, staring fixedly at the notch left on the wall, the inadvertent aura from his body even startled Amber next to him, but soon, Gawain's expression changed His usual calm and calm was restored.

This is the Sentinel, the "homeport" that is almost as large as a worldly kingdom is the Sentinel - it is not a weapon or a powerful ancient warrior, but a giant building whose scale can be compared with the sky!

But although all of this was astonishing, it did not completely exceed Gao Wen's imagination, because he had already vaguely guessed about this when he saw this giant building floating in the darkness and chaos. It was just that the speculation was confirmed, and he felt a great shock in his heart, but he was not overly helpless.

"Keep reading," he took a light breath, and woke up Amber and Kamel, who were also stunned, "They haven't mentioned why they should 'be careful of the sentry'."

Kamel and Amber nodded, and at the same time looked up at the wooden wall engraved with elven characters, looked at a long letter on it and continued to tell the ancient story——

"...after our initial results, our exploration of this 'world of steel' has dramatically improved, and we are beginning to discover some...truths, and this is the beginning of all the terrible things we must stay here The reason for this information, if the outside world is not in the worst situation, then please do remember one thing, please remember - watch out for the sentinel! It has been polluted, it has broken away from its duties And logic, it might want to end everything on this planet!

"Now that we have communicated the warning, what follows is the concrete 'truth' that we have discovered.

"'The Voyagers', the advanced civilization that once created the Sentinels, visited our world long, long ago. According to the scattered information we have found, this powerful race once defeated the 'Gods' on this planet , and took away most of the intelligent creatures on this planet at that time, we don’t know what the purpose of this advanced civilization is, but one thing is certain, when they left, they left a lot of things in our world, and This behemoth known as the Sentinel...is one of them.

"The original mission of 'Sentry' should be to perform some kind of monitoring and waiting tasks. It can monitor the operation of many kingdoms of God and record the long history of the entire world for millions of years. It has an ancient and tireless mind that can support It fulfills this near-eternal mission, and waits endlessly until some final 'goal' is achieved... yet it was all planned hundreds of years ago, when our sisters came here Already destroyed!
