Chapter 1505: Clues
No Guardian was found, but the Abyssal Gate built into the lava was quite special.
It's not just lava on the side of the abyss, it's surrounded by firebirds. On the Maze side, the abyssal portal was opened in the magma of a volcano, also completely submerged.
It can be said that if it weren't for the detection of the World Tree, Lin would not have realized that there was a completely open abyss door in the lava of the volcano. However, on this side of the maze, there is not a large flock of firebirds living in the crater.
On the Maze side, the volcano where the Abyss Gate is located is within the territory of a king-level demonic beast.
It was a huge white manticore, not only powerful, but also poisonous. Just getting close to it will not only be intimidated by the terrifying power of the Warcraft King, but will also be corroded by poisonous gas. Slightly weaker creatures may die on the spot.
Lin once thought that this manticore-tailed lion king was the guardian of this abyss gate.
But upon inquiry, it was confirmed that the Manticore Lion King did not even know that there was an abyssal portal in his own territory. In addition, it only came to the neighborhood more than a hundred years ago and grew into a king-level magical beast.
Nor does it have the traits of symbiosis with the Abyss Gate and the immortality attribute of it. From all kinds of evidence, this king-level demonic beast should have nothing to do with the Abyss Gate, and of course it can't be a guardian.
The reason why he occupies this volcano-centered territory is because it has a special power that is not found anywhere else, and allows the Manticore King to constantly climb his limits. Now it seems that it is the temptation of depravity that has been jokingly called 'Murmur of the Abyss'.
In other words, the white manticore-tailed lion king continues to occupy this territory, and in time, he will become a demonized manticore, and even further degenerate into a demon. But no matter how it changes, it still has nothing to do with the position of 'Guardian'.
At least Lin couldn't see the manticore's resonance with the Abyssal Gate. And this door has been around for a long time, and if there really were a guardian, it should have been created before the endless years. It's not just now that a lucky person is suddenly picked to take advantage of this shortage.
And on the opposite side of this particular door, on the side of the abyss. There is no one in the Firebird clan like a ghost town, there is a person who understands it, and there is no special firebird that coexists with the Abyss Gate.
The biggest reason why firebirds stay in such places is that the volcanic terrain is the best place for them to grow.
The other demons, while also fond of volcanic terrain, definitely don't have the same real needs as the Firebird. Therefore, the Firebird clan will try their best to protect this territory in the abyss.
The Firebirds knew that there was a door to the abyss in the magma that led to the Lost Land. But they didn't care, and they didn't think about going through the gate of the abyss and running to the side of the maze to develop.
The lava pool is everything to them. Although the Maze side is also an active volcano with magma terrain, it is less flavorful than the abyss side. So they didn't think about migration, they didn't think about expansion, they just guarded the volcano.
According to its original purpose, this abyssal gate without guardians should be the least valuable for reference.
But Lin spent the most time trying to find out why there were no Guardians here. Or maybe there's already a Guardian, but you haven't found it.
Is it bacteria? Or is it a virus that is too small to be observed by the naked eye?
Or maybe there are other factors that make this abyssal gate 'stable' and no longer need a guardian to watch it.
The reason for thinking this is because Lin didn't think that the real purpose of the guardians was to watch over the house and avoid stowaways on both sides. The symbiotic relationship between the Abyss Gate and the Guardian must have other intentions.
If this particular Abyssal Gate really doesn't have a Guardian, it means that it has met a certain condition, so there is no need for a Guardian. Even if no one is looking after the open door, it can do some kind of work.
In order to find out if there were any points of discrepancy that matched this characteristic, Lin began a comprehensive environmental reconnaissance of both sides of the Abyssal Gate.
Don't look at the fact that there are creatures living in the Maze and the Abyss, in fact, the environmental composition of the two places is still significantly different. Let's just say that the air composition of the earth is similar to that of the earth. Nearly 80% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and the rest are composed of special components. This small amount of detail is a little different from that of the Earth.
However, the difference in the air of the abyss is even greater. As an inert filling gas, nitrogen is only less than 60% of the total. Oxygen is close to 30%, and even carbon dioxide, which originally accounted for less than 1/1000 of the land, has a proportion of nearly 3 to 5 percent in the abyss.
The trace element part is even more abundant, and even contains substances that are harmful to the human body. Normal people stay in the abyss environment for a long time, and if they are not demonized, they will also be tortured to death by disease.
But as long as they can survive this level and adapt to the harmful parts, the creatures that stay in the abyss will be stronger than their counterparts in the Lost Land. Of course, the brain is also more unconscious.
However, since the air part is not on the same side, it should not be the focus of someone's attention. In fact, just because of the difference between the reconnaissance and the abyss, Lin didn't know what he was looking for. You can only gather as much information as you can and try to see something out of it.
Maybe it's looking for similarities, or maybe it's really about finding differences. It is more likely that you are working for nothing.
But the most fundamental aspect of science is trial and error. Even if you work for nothing, it proves that these methods really don't work.
So strictly speaking, it's neither a waste of time nor nothing. It's just that I can't get a satisfactory result, and I feel a little uncomfortable.
It is not difficult to place monitoring devices on both sides of the eight open Abyss Gates.
And the full version of the Arcane Eye, which is a 'complete record' of all the data information of the space in which it is located. Ordinary magicians only call up one-twelfth out of tenth, and they are mainly based on video materials.
But there's so much more to the Arcane Eye. With the passage of time, the amount of information has grown exponentially. All of this makes it more difficult to access and compare information, especially when you are not sure what works and what doesn't.
And as long as there is doubt about certain information, someone will go to the scene and come to the field to observe. Even if there is a flash technique, it takes a lot of time to run eight positions at a time to review.
Even if he couldn't find what he wanted to see in the end, Lin would only dare to prioritize this information to the back of the list, rather than directly excluding it from the watch list. At the end of the day, the whole job smells like a needle in a haystack.
But to say it's a blind search, it really makes someone find something weird. On both sides of the Abyss Gate, before there were countless inconsistent data on the Lost Earth side and the Abyss side, if there was a set of data that matched exactly, it might be a coincidence.
But when the match is continuous, that is, there is change, and the two worlds will have the same amount of ups and downs at the same time. This anomaly, when it appears in eight different places at the same time, may not be considered a coincidence.
Lin further studied the pair of data and found that it was a special radiation. And it's not any known type of radiation that someone has learned from on Earth.
Rather than researching what kind of radiation this was, Lin was even more curious about why such a completely identical thing appeared in the different worlds on both sides of the Abyss Gate. Don't look at the eight powers of the abyss, in fact, there are still some differences in the details.
At least the power of the abyss is used too much, and there is a doubt about being assimilated, that is, demonized. From this point of view, if there is no private goods carried by the will of the abyss in the power of the abyss, it is as ridiculous as saying that college girls are all virgins.
And this radiation waveform data really exists in someone's database......
Someone is the foundation of the sub-plane tower, in the uppermost energy pool, the original design is to absorb the chaotic energy in the dimensional gap. It is filtered into a regular and safe source of magical energy.
From the beginning of the establishment of the Dream Tower, this work of absorbing the energy of the heterotopic plane has been being done, and the effect is getting better and better. However, a person can only transform a single type of magical energy source for use with the magic array runes engraved on the Dream Tower and the subsequent sub-plane towers.
One of the major drawbacks of this is that the magic engraved on the towers of the second dimension has an independent energy supply, and it is not expensive to use. But when you want to use the magic of the Lost Land class, which is driven by the eight powers, you can only use the meager foundation accumulated over the long period by your poor talent.
This results in someone being able to play Infinite Flash; But if you throw a big fireball, you may throw ten of them and stop cooking. And there will also be the right to be emptied, the sequelae of mental weakness.
Therefore, in the past twelve years, in addition to studying his own extra Three Sect Diagrams, someone has further upgraded the Sub-Plane Tower. Let it produce eight powers to make up for its own talent weakness.
Twelve years ago, because of the strayed into the zero-dimensional space, someone's second-dimensional tower energy pool was upgraded to become an energy source with white holes and black holes as the core, and it was no longer a chaotic form of energy that originally absorbed dimensional gaps.
This is a welcome upgrade. This means that the sub-dimensional tower can break away from the strange position of the dimensional rift, and there will be no doubt about the lack of energy when it appears anywhere.
But in order to create the eight powers, Lin reintroduced the chaotic energy of the dimensional rift.
The final result is also quite gratifying, that is, he can mix the two energy cores to transform eight powers. The specific method of conversion was determined, with the assistance of Fen.
After all, in the era when the original lich was active, there was no such thing as eight powers. On the contrary, there are eight distinct schools of magic, each representing a source of magic, and each school has its own complete and similar system of magic.
In order to understand the way magic is used in the new era, Fen also went through a period of hard work and adaptation. It can be said that the moment when she was first resurrected was the weakest moment. But even the weakest are stronger than someone at the same time, and it's still a gap that makes people feel hopeless.
In short, with Fen's help, Lin didn't have to produce some kind of pure energy on the sub-plane tower first, and then convert this pure energy into eight powers. If this were the case, there would be no need to reintroduce the chaotic energy of the dimensional gap.
It's no secret that every conversion comes with wear and tear, and there is the potential for unpredictable surprises. The more conversions, the more energy is wasted and the chances of accidents occurring.
Therefore, this method of directly producing eight powers without making a secondary transformation is not just to improve someone's strength, but to make a big leap in steps.
However, the disadvantage is not impossible, that is, the sub-plane tower loses the possibility of leaving the gap in the dimension. Unless someone intends to demote the Subplane Tower back to its original form.
