Act Five Hundred and Four. Contact distortion
In the conference room, complex texts are projected on the table, and anyone who knows a little can see that this is a projection of the god's script at the bottom of the big hollow.
These scripts are similar to others in style, but with very different shapes, which are scripts in the Serafino language.
The two languages are contrasted one by one, and finally form two sentences.
In these two sentences, the one written in the god script is the one on the strange pedestal at the bottom of the Great Hollow, while the other is written in the Serafino language, which is the corresponding translation.
At the same time, underneath Serafino is the text of the lingua franca, which, naturally, is the corresponding translation.
"Here is the invisible thunder, and the gateway to the Netherworld, which seals the unspeakable evil god that Helios, Lord of the Storm, found on his expedition and imprisoned him under the abyss."
Safros recites these words in Serafino, his voice long and reverent, like an elegy that resonates with awe.
"Excellencies, according to the current decipherment results, this is roughly what the Shendai text at the bottom of the Great Hollow says."
He turned his gaze from the words on the table to the side, and the legendary mages and high-ranking mages were lost in thought with the archaeological reports in their hands.
Eventually, linguists and archaeologists finalized a translation of the god's script, taking the second option, in which the pedestal, and the intangibles on it, were imbued with danger and were associated with the Sauron Xenomorph.
As a terrifying creature that destroyed the previous era, the Sauron Xenomorph was first discovered during the Ancient Magic Empire, when the creature destroyed the entire Sauron half-plane, forcing the mages to permanently seal the stargate to the half-plane, hence the name Sauron Xenomorph.
Since then, there have been sporadic sightings of Sauron xenos in various half-planes, but some are not real Sauron xenos, but are just murderous monsters.
It was only now, after careful reflection, that the mages realized that they had thought that the first time Sauron's xenomorphs appeared in this world was in the Sauron half-plane, which was like some kind of locust, wreaking havoc through it, but this was not the case.
Knowing that these creatures have been around even longer than the mages knew, the entire definition of Sauron Xenomorph changes.
The Sauron xenos have always been there, they destroyed the civilization of the last era, and most of them were wiped out in the cataclysm that even the planet was torn apart, but there are still a few alive, wandering in the endless void, all these years, they have been dormant, multiplying, waiting for the opportunity to come back to this world.
The attack of the Sauron half-plane was nothing more than their sentinel force, and the real main force of the Sauron xenomorph was far from what the non-divisions could imagine with their current vision.
In the age of the gods, the Sauron xenomorph naturally also came, but in that era of faith, people called it an evil god.
The door on this pedestal, which the mages called the Nether Gate, is named after the description of the pedestal, and it is a passage that leads to the world called Netherworld, where the xenos of Sauron live.
Taken together, these statements present a picture to the mages, that is, this gate is likely to be a bridge for the Sauron xenos to invade the world, but at the same time, the mages can also attack the Lair of the Sauron xenos through this gate.
Therefore, this Netherworld Gate has become the focus of mages' research.
"Isaris, I think your probe can try to get to that door."
Lord Braggs looked at Lord Alberton on the side, after that, Lord Alberton has made many similar detectors one after another, and he found through experiments that the number of invisible monsters at the bottom of the big hole is only one, and its volume is about ten meters, and the speed is very fast, it can move more than two hundred meters in just one second, which is the result of Lord Alberton's experiment using detectors scattered on the outer wall of the big hole.
To put it simply, if you want to try to get the probes inside the Nether Gate, you need to dodge the attacks of invisible monsters, and it is impossible to defend against it, so you can only use a large number of probes as bait so that the probes can safely reach the bottom of the Great Hollow.
"Yes, I'll be using more than fifteen detectors, spread across the Great Hollow, enough to delay that monster."
Lord Alberton replied with a slight bow, he had been preparing for the actual detection of the strange thing for a long time.
After the meeting, careful planning was made, and in the afternoon, the group went to the wall again, overlooking the Great Hollow.
The personnel of the observation posts around the Great Hollow have been evacuated to the Dawn Treading to avoid any unforeseen danger if the probe comes into contact with the Nether Gate.
The Dawn Treading Wave is also ready for battle, and the four twin 410mm guns are all aimed at the direction of the big hollow, and once there is any abnormality, it will be baptized by heavy artillery fire.
Under the attention of everyone, Lord Alberton waved his hand slightly, and the twenty detectors on the table next to him flew out together, and at the same time, the images captured around them were also reflected on each screen, this screen was made by Reiner with his own technology, which can reflect the detector picture more clearly, and at the same time record the work, through the auxiliary program of the magic computer, you can perfectly reproduce anything captured by the detector.
And in front of the screen, a model projected with many points of light is also changing, which is a map of the position distribution of detectors, showing the positions of all detectors in three dimensions.
The image of the probe quickly dimmed, and the light illuminated the large dark void, forming a brilliant constellation.
Soon, the probe encountered an area where the magic tide collapsed, and due to the protection of the powerful magic barrier arranged by Lord Alberton, this high concentration of magic did not affect the probe in any way.
Continue to dive until the depth is shown to be 15,000 meters, when the first probe has an anomaly.
Suddenly, a snowflake dot appears in one of the twenty projections, and contact is lost, revealing the word "lost".
In the stereoscopic projection of the detector, a point of light is extinguished.
Two of the remaining projections could see the destruction of another probe, which Lord Alberton immediately manipulated to change their path and continue their dive along an elusive trajectory.
Immediately afterward, the second probe also lost contact.
The third, the fourth, the fifth, as the number of detectors decreases, and the rate of destruction is getting faster and faster.
Eventually, when there were still three probes left, the base finally reappeared in the screen full of "missing".
