Yuri and Semler were the first to stand up, then Wendy and the other bishops and archbishops in the room, and finally the other priests realized who was in front of them, and the slight grinding of the bench against the clothes continued throughout the assembly hall, and every Eternal Sleeper stood up.

It's a spectacle.

Gawain looked at these people in front of him, at these people who had just been transferred from Typhon and were members of the Dark Sect not long ago, although all of this was made possible by him himself, he still had a little unreal feeling at the moment - the entire Cult of the Eternal Sleeper, more than half of the accumulated heritage of seven hundred years, and more than half of its achievements, now belonged to Cecil.

These are technicians.

Gawain exhaled lightly and said lightly, "Sit down." ”

The three dark sects, the Children of the Storm are being eroded and transformed by the power of the Deep Sea Harmonic God, and the current situation is unknown; The Society of the End of Life finally lived up to its name, and with the exception of a group of remnants who fled into the wasteland to hide, almost all of the remaining parts of the human kingdom were dead, leaving only a plant on the Thorin Plains to bear fruit; The Eternal Sleeper, the Order has collapsed, and the remaining technicians have been divided between the two human empires.

Although the darkness and chaos that have lasted for seven hundred years cannot be said to have settled to this day, in Gawain's view, at least the general trend has been decided.

"Yuri, Semler, and...... Wendy," Gawain's gaze swept over the faces of several of the archbishops he knew better, and as he turned his gaze to the clearing next to him, two more figures suddenly appeared there, "Ah, and Magnum, Selena...... It's great to see you arrive safely. ”

"Your Majesty," Yuri stepped forward slightly, he obviously stumbled when he said the word "Your Majesty", obviously not very comfortable with the title, and then he turned slightly sideways and pointed to the crowd in the hall, "The Eternal Sleepers who have successfully crossed the border so far are already here—in terms of numbers, they account for less than a tenth of the entire Order, but basically all of them are middle- and high-level members who have mastered technology, including almost all the archbishops, one-third of the bishops, and some elite priests with outstanding abilities, We're here to help. ”

In other words, there are still a considerable number of mid-level technicians who remain in Typhon......

Gao Wen sighed slightly in his heart, but he didn't show it, he just nodded, and said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, you can rest here for a few days first, familiarize yourself with the environment here, and be familiar with the laws and rules that you must abide by here, there will be special personnel and departments responsible for you, and there will be arrangements for food and accommodation."

"In addition, in the coming period, these Holy Light priests will live with you, and they will take you to gradually adapt to life here."

The Eternal Sleepers seemed to be slightly agitated when they heard his last words, but in the end, no one came forward to express their opinions, and Gawain was quite satisfied with this.

"Then the others can go and rest, and the archbishops stay—I still have things to explain and arrange."

The White Knights and Battle Nuns immediately stepped forward and guided the other priests out of the assembly hall and into the pre-arranged housing area, while the archbishops such as Yuri and Semler stayed as instructed—including Magnum and Selena, who were currently appearing in Gawain in an illusory projection.

Magnum looked at the place curiously, he was not very used to the existence of the "psychological projection", so that he kept flickering like a malcontacting magic crystal (reminiscent of Kamel in party mode), and after discovering that everyone was leaving, he seemed to perceive the changes in the scene in hindsight, and immediately looked at Gawain curiously: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, what else do you have in order? ”

"I'll take you to see your new 'home' next," Gawain smiled, then looked down at Amber next to him, "Go to the Computing Center." ”

The place where Gawain was taking them wasn't far away—in fact, it was right next to the meeting place.

Escorted by a group of white knights, the archbishops had walked for less than ten minutes on a road completely devoid of pedestrians, shaded by trees and bushes, when they felt a sudden opening up before everyone, and an open field that seemed to be still under construction appeared before everyone.

All sorts of magic machines they had never seen before were running in the open space, and the supernatural powers were controlled by the most ordinary workers, and they were used on a large scale in the most basic construction projects, and in the center of this orderly and efficient construction site, a building that seemed to be five or six stories high, roughly pyramidal, with a large number of runes and magical materials laying on the surface, had taken shape and stood there in a grand manner.

Magnum's eyes widened suddenly—almost every archbishop in the room was more or less surprised.

Some of them were surprised by the never-before-seen scene of "mechanized cluster construction", some were surprised by the mysterious pyramid building whose style and structure were unheard of, and whatever their surprise, they had one reaction that was surprisingly unanimous: all eyes quickly fell on Gawain.

Magnum stared at the pyramid for a long time before looking at Gawain, who was the first to speak: "That's the prison?" Or is it a 'factory' for us to renovate? ”

He still remembered the "labor reform" that Gawain had mentioned earlier at the Synod of the Supreme Bishopric.

The faces of several archbishops at the scene became somewhat delicate, and Yuri even spread his hands helplessly - since Magnum became a projection, it was not so easy to cover this loud mouth in time.

Gawain didn't care, he smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, at least among the people present, no one has reached the point where they have to be thrown into prison, and the knowledge you have can also exchange for a brighter future for you to the greatest extent." As for this facility...... In a sense it does allow you to work in it, but it is not a factory.

"Welcome to the Imperial Computing Center - it's not finished yet, but some of the facilities in the main building are ready, come with me and I'll show you the future."

Gawain strode towards the pyramid-shaped building with the Sleepers, all of whom followed with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation, and Amber followed Gawain on her short legs. As he approached the "pyramid", Yuri noticed that the outer edge of its foundation had not been covered in many places, and on the open base layer, a large number of neatly arranged hexagonal runic structures could be seen, and a faint magical glow flowed between the elements.

This is probably Cecil's "magic net", he thought.

In terms of scale and precision, it is far superior to all kinds of "imitations" made by other forces.

They then stepped through the doors of the pyramidal building, revealing a large hall illuminated by a large number of lights, which was still being cleaned and installed.

The first thing they saw was a huge pillar in the center of the hall—a rectangular pillar thicker than the main beams of any castle, whose surface seemed to be made of a large number of silvery-white metal plates, and whose precise splicing and the distribution of the gaps that seemed to contain some kind of geometric pattern revealed an intoxicating "beauty" that is difficult to describe in words, because no one has seen anything like it anywhere else.

And between the cracks of the metal plates, on the surface of some of the special panels, pale blue magical light was flowing silently, and the sporadic lights flickered as if breathing.

This even gave Yuri the illusion that the pillar was alive and even had a mind of its own, that it was the heart and brain of the building, that the Cecil workers and technicians were waking it up little by little, and that this thing was gradually waking up...... Waiting to communicate with other minds......

Suddenly, Yuri realizes that he wasn't delusional.

He did sense something familiar from that pillar, a magical fluctuation similar to some of the facilities in the Eternal's headquarters!

"This is the Hall of Minds, and the pillar in front of you is called the 'Mind Hub', the first and only one in the Empire at the moment," Gawain noticed the change in the expressions on Yuri and the others' faces, and he deliberately waited a few seconds before explaining, "You may have some familiarity with it, and that's normal, because this thing ...... Your psychic network technology is used.

"The 'Mind Hub' runs through almost the entire building, with four floors above ground and two floors underground, connecting the various levels of computing floors, the thinking hall, the redundancy center, and the deepest layer of the magic web, have you noticed the rooms around the hall? There are more rooms above and below ground, and those rooms contain a total of thousands of immersion pods - and there will be more in the future, and more computing centers will appear in the provinces of the empire, and there will be more 'distribution stations' near each computing center to take on more computing tasks.

"The immersion pods in each room are connected to the Mind Hub, and then connected to the Magic Web through the Mind Hub - with an additional layer of Magic Net Transformation and a new security medium, it is much more secure than if you had previously 'connected' the network directly with the human brain.

"By the way, some of you may not know what an immersion pod is - you can ask Selena about this, she has seen it."

Semler, however, didn't care much about what Gawain was saying in his last sentence.

He, and the rest of the archbishops present, each one of them watched all this in amazement, listened to it all, conceived it all in their minds.

This magnificent building, as well as the large scale and advanced and sophisticated equipment inside, are essentially a technological extension of the Eternal Sleeper's psychic network, but their size and application methods are completely beyond the comprehension of all Eternal Sleepers, even if they don't have a glimpse of the whole picture of this building, even if they only glance at what they can see, Semler and Yuri and others can judge that this thing is definitely not just for the Eternal Sleeper priests who are currently present - it will definitely accommodate many more "users" than they imagined!!

What struck them even more was that there would be more than one such "computing center" in the future - every province would have one, and there would even be "distribution stations" for additional expansion facilities.

The original Order of the Eternal Sleeper also had so-called "external nodes", in addition to the headquarters of Orlandal, they also set up some computing facilities in other places, but those nodes were pitifully small, and their functions were only equivalent to the auxiliary facilities of the headquarters, which was probably equivalent to the role of the "distribution station" mentioned by Gawain, and even so, it was already the result of hundreds of years of accumulation of the Order of the Eternal Sleeper......

Gawain describes a future that feels unimaginable to them.

The scale is so large that they even feel a little unnecessary, a little unbelievable.

"So many, so large ...... computing centers," Yuri finally couldn't help but speak, "are you going to get everyone to connect with it?" ”

"Why not?" Gawain asked rhetorically, "The immersion module is a safer connection measure, and it can be used by ordinary people, in fact, Cecil has completed research in this area, and what currently limits the size of the computing center is only the capacity of the immersion module."

"As you say, Yuri, I'm just going to make this network cover the entire empire - in my opinion, it's a very useful technology."

The archbishops looked at each other.

This is a path they never thought of – because the direction it represents seemed impossible to them at one time!

However, just thinking about the prospect that Gawain had painted, and the power that the psychic network could unleash after it had been rebuilt in the land of the Cecil Empire, they couldn't help but feel dizzy.

"How can you ...... like this," Magnum muttered, "we didn't even imagine anything like this......"

Gawain smiled and glanced at Magnum calmly.

"Because the Order of the Sleepers is only a Order, and Cecil is an Empire," he said unhurriedly, "and what you see are two forces—the power of industry, and ...... The power of the state apparatus.

"And your original path of 'solitary salvation' is destined to run counter to these two forces.

"Finally, let me say it again – welcome to Cecil, welcome to the future."
