Chapter 1040: Asking for Help [One Change]
"Energy, energy, energy! ……”
Lin An muttered.
Now Athena needs energy more than anything.
The amount of energy required by Sky City is not something that ordinary people can provide.
To stop the collapse of one half-plane, unless another half-plane is providing it with energy.
Thinking of this, Lin An's heart moved.
But immediately she suppressed the thought that was floating in her heart.
If she made such a request, it would not be impossible to achieve, but it would definitely expose the city in the sky.
What's more, in order for the half-plane to power the Sky City, it is necessary to connect the half-plane of the Son of the Empty Forest with the Sky City.
This will inevitably affect the Deep Blue Law God's disposition of the Son of the Empty Forest, and maybe, the Son of the Empty Forest will be spared.
The enemy of a legendary powerhouse is terrifying, and for a long time, when the son of the empty forest recovers his vitality, he will turn against the guest - even if the son of the empty forest can no longer attack Lin An, it does not mean that he cannot covet the sky city.
What's more, after this man-made catastrophe, the position of the Son of the Empty Forest is too doubtful.
It's not that Lin An overestimates herself, but she does think that in this catastrophe in the Muse Continent, there is no one to replace the role she plays.
Legendary powerhouses are indeed powerful, but they are too far away from the mundane, and their powerful power can make people bow their heads for a while, but they cannot make everyone unite and willingly obey and sacrifice;
The royal family can certainly do this, but the most vested interests of the ruling class, for the sake of self-preservation and continuity, have always found it difficult to make fair trade-offs, and it is easy to make decisions at critical times that give up the overall situation and take into account their own interests.
As a candidate for mediation in the middle, Lin An sets himself up as a coordinator and overseer - except for her, no one can gain the trust of both the royal family and the legendary powerhouse like her, enough to be qualified for this role, and take a fair position without selfishness.
The son of Kongsen no longer knows the current situation, and he will not fail to understand Lin An's key role.
Moreover, in the whole trap, the son of the empty forest even tried to use Remus to carry the cauldron, whether he succeeded or not, this would cause a violent conflict in the legend, destroy the trust between Miè, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Since the son of Kongsen knew this, he still attacked Lin An, the object of the overall situation, not to mention what his purpose was, but he definitely did not have the basic sense of responsibility and overall situation as a human race.
With such a person, how could Lin An let him know the specific coordinates of the two spatial rifts, and even give him a chance to get his hands on the Sky City?
Unless all methods have been tried and there is no other choice, Lin An will make such a choice.
“…… However, even if a mage tower is built immediately and all the elements accumulated every day are provided to Sky City, it will only be a drop in the bucket......"
The castle in the sky is built directly on a demon source.
That's right!
- Demon Source!
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Lin An grasped the key point:
Maybe you can try to start with the original energy source of Sky City, and if you can increase the energy supplied by the demon source, the matter will be solved.
The spiritual power was once again connected to the control center to investigate the situation of the demon source.
As the source of energy for Sky City, this demon source located under the ground of Sky City has of course always been within the control of Sky City.
The Demon Source is equivalent to the pores of the plane, the singularity of the erupting natural elements, and the periodic cycle of elemental tides from the Demon Realm to the Crell Plane, which is the "pores" of these planes to exchange breath.
From this point of view, the Demon Source can also be regarded as a kind of spatial channel.
However, this kind of passage is very special, like a screen, which can only allow the elements to pass through guò, and is a forbidden area for matter and life.
Lin An once experienced a demon source eruption in the ice field.
That time the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, which was a horror that no legendary forbidden spell could do, and the damage to the stratum reached dozens of miles below, almost burying Lin An underground, which made Lin An remember it vividly.
Such terrifying destructive power is probably only accessible to demigods.
And the Sky City is indeed a relic built by the demigods, in addition, Lin An has not seen any other mage tower that can directly use the magic source, even the magic tower of the abyss master, it is not built on the demon source.
From this point of view, the Demon Source is much more dangerous than the ordinary spatial rift.
From the conversion rate of the Sky City to the Demon Source Element that Lin An saw, this is also intuitively highlighted:
Per cent.
This is the conversion rate of Sky City to Demon Source.
Lin An asked the control center.
【…… The data has been deleted. 】
This was not surprising to Lin An.
"This aspect should also be the core content of the original transfer."
When the clergy who lived in Sky City were invaded, it was impossible for them to be stupid enough to leave the information on and off the power source to the intruders, and all the key content was completely deleted.
"Fortunately, the basic records after that are still kept."
In the case of a relic that has survived several epochs, the database of Sky City is pitifully empty.
However, after all, after the core data was moved, the control center operated independently for so many years, of course, maintaining the normal automatic recording mechanism, and there were many automatic records left.
Lin An mobilized these numbers and asked the control center to perform the calculation, comparing the conversion rate of the Sky City before and after Athena's awakening, and before and after Athena began to invade the Earth Temple, and came up with a not optimistic result:
During the long period of sleep in Sky City, the conversion rate of the Demon Source was less than one percent;
After the awakening of Sky City, the conversion rate gradually increased to around three percent, occasionally fluctuating;
As for the conversion rate of five percent, it is the conversion rate after Athena began to enter the Temple of the Earth.
In other words, although it seems that there is still a lot of room for growth, a full ninety-five percent, in fact, five percent is already the peak of Sky City's conversion rate to the Demon Source.
The starry sky had already begun to collapse, but Athena was unable to change the conversion rate of the demon source, and Lin An didn't think that she was more capable of changing this reality than the spirit of the temple of the demigod Creation.
"If you can't increase the conversion rate, you can only increase the base value."
Xiu Lidai's black willow eyebrows frowned, and Lin An tapped his forehead with his right index finger, "Let me think about it." ”
The easiest way, of course, is to find a larger demon source, relocate the Sky City there, and solve it in one fell swoop.
Pity.
The road was blocked from the start.
According to the information and various clues that Lin An found in the Sky City before, the reason why the ancient demigods-ridden Sobik civilization died was because those demigods were too fond of tossing and making a big death.
The existence of Sky City is a huge Band-Aid for the plane, sealing the huge hole left to those who come after the Demigod War.
This speculation became even more credible after learning that the Earth Temple also had a similar spatial rift leading to the second plane.
After countless eras of dormancy, the plane loopholes that were tossed out by the demigods have indeed stabilized, at least after Lin An obtained the Sky City, he did not encounter any warnings of the deterioration of the situation.
As long as it continues, the hole will eventually heal, and Sky City will ask this Band-Aid role.
But this also means that as long as the spatial rift leading to the two sub-planes remains, the Sky City and the Earth Temple cannot be moved for a day.
If the plane is also regarded as a kind of life, then its long life span is unimaginable to the race born in its body, just as the short life cycle of bacteria in the human body cannot be compared with the life span of a human being.
It is estimated that Lin An will not see the day when Sky City will fly.
The migration road was blocked, and Lin An could only hit the idea of the demon source itself.
If the diameter of this water pipe can be doubled, the amount of water output will naturally increase geometrically.
That being said, if Lin An had the ability to expand the Demon Source, then it might not be a problem for her to increase the conversion rate of the temple.
Again, the theoretical bottleneck.
Even if it is a legend, he can only be helpless in the face of this situation, but Lin An still has a place to turn for help.
"Fate destined me to take a break from my busy schedule and go into retreat as usual."
After seeing too much of the collapse of the starry sky, he became accustomed to it, Lin An looked up and looked around, and simply sat down on the spot:
"Speaking of which, after the advancement, I haven't really been idle, after unsealing the seal of the seal space, Lulu will figure out what they left me in this layer of seal space."
Yes, after Lin An was promoted to Archmage, it was only natural that the imprint space was unsealed from the third layer.
After this layer of space was unsealed, the imprint space increased by two hundred cubic meters, plus the twenty cubic meters that were unsealed during the previous promotion, for a total of two hundred and twenty cubic meters.
With such a volume, there is still a big gap with the Ring of Artemis, but compared with other spatial equipment, except for a few pieces, no spatial equipment can compare to Lin An's imprint space.
Lin An's personal storage space has been greatly expanded, and coupled with the Ring of Artemis, it is estimated that until the legend, there will be no need for other spatial equipment - of course, she didn't either, at the end of the spiral staircase of the Earth Temple before, in order to safely cross the spatial rift, other spatial equipment and more minor belongings on her body were left there.
More importantly, the imprint space has Lin An's soul mark, which is very safe, and there will be no situation where spatial equipment such as the Ring of Artemis can be detected by legendary powerhouses at will, and even Lin An can directly take out the items hidden in it without knowing it.
Moreover, if Lin An dies, the imprint space will also be completely destroyed along with the things in the space, and it will not be left in the hands of possible enemies like other space equipment, and it will become a trophy to fund the enemy.
The space has expanded, and of course the things the wardens have stored in it have increased a lot.
Two hundred and twenty cubic meters, roughly equivalent to the size of a classroom, can store nearly 100,000 volumes even if only one-third of the space is used to store books:
