Chapter 303: Cultist Technique
Gawain didn't make any extra moves, just stood quietly in place, watching the woman named "Serena" walk into the distance, and after a few seconds, she withdrew her gaze and left the place as if nothing had happened.
That's Selena Gertfen, almost no doubt!
Although he wore a veil, in the memory of Gawain Cecil, Selena Gelefen also appeared several times wearing a veil, so he had a vague sense of familiarity from the first time he saw "Serena" in the psychic network, but after all, it was someone else's memory, and there are also subtle differences between "Serena" and Selena Geleen now, mainly because the voice has changed greatly, so he never took this feeling to heart, until just now, the moment the other party turned to leave, A certain image in his mind overlapped with the person in front of him, and almost instantly made him make a judgment:
The person in front of him was the goddess of the Dream Church seven hundred years ago, Selena Gelfen.
Is she alive? Lived for seven hundred years? And now at the top of the Cult of the Eternal Sleepers?
Gao Wen walked quietly on the way back to the crystal square, and his thoughts gradually calmed down.
Whether it was Selena Gelfen or not, his plans couldn't be affected.
Seven centuries have passed, everything has changed, the Church of the God of Dreams has become a madly paranoid Order of the Eternal Sleepers, the former gentle and kind goddess has now become the leader of the cult, maybe each sect has its own reasons for its depravity, maybe Selena Gehr has her own plan, but now is not the time to investigate this truth.
You can't reveal your identity, especially not in front of Serena.
After making a decision in his heart, Gawain stopped, let go of the connection to the psychic network, and let his spirit fall in nothingness.
When he opened his eyes, Amber was staring at him straight again, and his face was less than half a meter in front of him.
Gao Wen raised his eyebrows: "I said, aren't you really afraid that one day I will be really startled by you, and subconsciously slap you on the wall with a jump?" β
Amber was obviously not worried at all: "Just blow it, you don't even have a sword in your hand." β
"As long as you are stronger than a goose, I can slap you on the wall with an eggplant!" Gawain pulled the half-elf's head aside, then got up and stretched, "Run errands and call Jenny and Kamel...... Forget it, I'll go over by myself, there are not all things in the study. β
Amber suddenly rubbed up excitedly: "Hey? What did you realize in your dreams? Or do you see the little girl? β
Gawain paused in mid-air, and turned his head to look at Amber expressionlessly: "I really saw the little girlβand a beautiful big girl." β
Amber was stunned for a moment, then jumped up: "I just said that your biography is non-fiction, and you still don't admit it, and you still knock me on the head!" β
At the Rune Institute, Jenny and Carmel were discussing the complex interference problem in the magic array above the middle level, and their visit to Gawain seemed very surprising - this time was usually when Gawain was dealing with official business or studying mechanical drawings, and it was rare to see him come here.
And he didn't have Amber with him - the half-elf guard had been hanging around Gawain all the time, and rarely saw him.
"She's too noisy, I asked her to find a place to play by herself, and save herself from running to the research institute to make trouble." Gawain explained why Amber wasn't around, then went to his desk, pulled one straight from a stack of scratch paper, picked up the dipping pen next to him, and scribbled it.
Jenny and Carmel approached curiously, and they found that what Gawain was painting was not a new type of mechanical blueprint, but a never-before-seen rune array, which was obviously some kind of unoptimized, traditional magic circle, with complicated rune expressions, a large number of magic lines interspersed between the repetitive rune structures, and the most surprising thing for Carmel was that he also saw words between those runes that did not belong to the elemental language, and those symbols were not so much elemental runes, It's more like some kind of deformed religious sacred symbol......
"What is this?" Jenny didn't know much about the "Divine Symbols" used by the clergy, she just felt that the circle in front of her was quite strange, and there were many unreasonable structures, as if they were put together, "You designed it...... Some kind of circle? β
Gawain raised his head and looked at the two in front of him seriously: "No, it's not mine, it's the technique of the Eternal Sleeper." β
Jenny exclaimed, "Sleeper?!" β
Kamel lit up instantly: "You mentioned it to me last time, that cult organization formed by the degeneration of the Church of the God of Dreams?" β
"That's right, this is a kind of brainwave amplification and transmission circle of theirs, and originally it also had a supporting 'artificial neural cable' technology that can connect human neurons with external devices, but this part of the thing has no clue for the time being, and all I found is this magic circle."
Jenny was stunned when she heard this, and she showed an unimaginable expression: "Lord Lord...... How did you get this? β
"I devoured the soul of an eternal sleeper, have you forgotten?" Gawain said the explanation he had already thought of, "I got his memory, and this part of the memory has been constantly digested by me, and this rune array is the result of the latest research. β
This is certainly not the real answer, the real answer is that he found these reliable sources in the mind of that old mage, Daniel.
The Eternal Sleeper relies on the "Dream Magic" to connect to the Internet, just like any supernatural power, the Dream Magic also requires the user's talent, not everyone's magic and mental power can be strong enough to connect to the network without relying on external forces like Gawain or the Nightmare Bishops, so they have auxiliary connection technology, and in Daniel, Gawain got some information about this auxiliary technology.
Neuronal links, artificial neural cords, brain wave amplification and transmission, these things are the key to this technology.
Daniel is a powerful mage, and he who has reached a high level does not need to rely on this external force, but there is a problem of "compatibility" involved here, the "dream spell" transformed by the eternal sleeper from the dream magic is not consistent with the traditional magic system, and the "magic talent" and "spiritual talent" of human beings are not balanced in many cases, especially those who have been deeply involved in the traditional magic road, their mental structure and brain work have been deeply affected by the power of magic, so they are using "magic magic" , so Daniel had to use a secondary link to connect himself to the Sleeper's network.
He had obtained this part of the technical information from the Eternal Sleeper, and now, it was in Gawain's hands.
"Cultists' technical ......" Jenny hesitated a little after knowing the origin of these runes, "Are you going to study their powers?" β
"Technology itself is not good or bad, it depends on the person who uses it," Gawain said lightly, "Seven hundred years ago, these powers saved countless souls from despair and uplifted countless warriors who lost their fighting spiritβit's not that power has deteriorated, only people can fall." β
Carmel agrees with Gawain: "I know what the Church of the God of Dreams used to be, and they have been the mildest and most tolerant of all the sects since a long time ago. Everyone has dreams, whether they are kings or farmers, nobles or slaves, dreams will soothe everyone equally, this is the meaning of dreams, and it is also the code of conduct of all believers in the gods of dreams, who have always regarded it as their mission to defend the peace of the human spiritual world - if it were not for the facts, I really can't imagine that such a group of people would degenerate into 'eternal sleepers'......"
The ancient magister shook his head, "I still can't believe it. β
Unlike others, Kamel is a person who has participated in the "disobedience" plan and knows the truth about the fall of the god of nature, so Gawain has also vaguely mentioned to him the situation of other gods "strange conditions", Kamel can certainly guess the reasons for the fall of several dark sects, and he can only sigh at this.
Jenny's thinking was not old-fashioned, she agreed with Gawain's statement, and when she saw those runes, she lost her mustache: "Do you want me to complete the simplification and reconstruction of these rune groups?" β
"Simplification and refactoring is the ultimate goal, but first you have to figure out how it works, and figure out what the role of each part of the rune is, otherwise there is no way to reconstruct it," Gawain said, "You can ask Pittman to help with this." There are similarities between the process of transforming dream magic into dream spells and the process of transforming druid magic into spells, and the rules of rune change between the two should also have something in common. And Kamel you might be able to help too, right? β
"Of course, the 'Disobedience' plan in the past itself was to study the power of the gods, and the 'Inverter Array' that is being used in the alchemy factory today is one of our achievements back then," Kamel's voice sounded confident, "The divine runes have been put on a lot of mystical explanations and deceptive halos by those divine officials and believers, in fact, they are just to keep their gods high, and if they really want to be incorporated into the logical system, there is no difference between divine runes and elemental runes." β
Gawain nodded with satisfaction: "Very good." The focus is to understand how their 'transmission' technology is implemented, and whether the 'content' of this transmission can be imported and exported through a medium other than neurons. If my estimation is correct, this research is likely to advance your research on mana fields at the same time. β
As soon as these words fell, Gawain and Jenny felt that their eyes lit up at the same time, especially bright.
The arcane spark on Kamel's body shone: "That's right, it's in this direction...... Spread of the magic field! You reminded me that they are most likely in the same field! There are also teleportation spells...... These things should all be in the same field! β
The ancient magus was in a state of excitement, a moment of excitement that no researcher could avoidβthe joy of a breakthrough in the subject spurred him on.
He and Jenny had been studying the magic field for a long time, and the magic of those fluctuating interference curves and oscillations haunted him day and night, and although Gawain pointed him in the direction with the concepts of fields and waves, and with new mathematical tools to help him parse the vast amount of data observed in his experiments, there was still one problem standing in his way:
Can the "waves" of magic be precisely controlled? Can it carry information? Is it possible to use applications other than energy delivery?
Is there a connection between teleportation spells, which have long been the "black boxes of technology", and fluctuations in magical power?
The magic circle of communication spells is no stranger to Kamal, even without the help of tools, he can draw one accurately, but a single magic circle does not have contrast, and the isolated evidence is the most difficult to analyze, even he has not been able to complete the simplification and reconstruction of the communication circle until now - because he can't understand what the role of each part of the rune in that complex magic circle is, so naturally it is impossible to divide and reconstruct it, and directly use the formula of rune logic to simplify without dividing the rune function, The entire circle will become fragmented or even inoperable.
But now, he has a sample that he can compare and analyze.
The Eternal Sleeper's teleportation technique is essentially another teleportation technique.
Two different samples of teleportation spells are in front of you, and this may be the key to unlocking the black box of technology......
