Section 233 The Floating City and the Titanic (Part I)

"It's been three months since Mr. Jackson was gone, and I'm a little puzzled by his departure. I could see that when he came to the Northern Liberation Front, he quickly liked it and became a member of it, far more determined than I was. But he left the Liberation Front and returned to Asturias. Maybe I should also consider whether to continue to stay, these months of battlefield life are very rare experiences for me, I have learned a lot of things, but still not to solve the confusion in my heart. Rand stopped.

Rand did not know the reason for Jackson's sudden departure, and although Jackson came to say goodbye to him and encourage him, he did not explain why he left and returned to Asturias.

Rand wasn't homesick at the time, so he didn't decide to go back with Jackson at the time.

However, when another three months passed, although Rand could still feel the warmth of the Liberation Front, he could not help but miss his hometown and relatives.

He is actually quite popular here, and even some elf female warriors have a good impression of him, including Nanna and Hurley, whom he befriended, Nanna has passed the withdrawal period and was allowed to officially join the Liberation Front, Hurley's brother Versaily is still in the process of quitting, his drug addiction is not as big as Nanna, but his will is not as good as Nanna.

The High Elves have not been able to help the love between men and women before, even if they are married, as long as they have feelings, one of them will be with the newcomer after the dissolution of the marriage relationship, and no one will accuse them of liking the new and hating the old.

Now it's just a matter of breaking down that line and applying it to most of the people here.

In this chaotic era, the era of precariousness. Even the High Elves have let go of the shackles of their identity. This was especially true of the Northern Liberation Front, which was on the front lines of the war.

But Rand didn't mess with any of them. Because he vaguely felt that although this place was very good, very warm, and even touched him, it was not his home in the end, and it could not solve the real questions in his heart.

I can't find the answer I'm looking for, so maybe it's time to leave here and go home.

In the mountains of the former Modo and Asturias, where two divisions have been stationed for a long time, no one is allowed to approach within a certain area.

And within that range. From time to time, a large amount of supplies will be transported in, and there will be quite a lot of magicians.

Some say that this is the center of the second set of teleportation passages, and that the Gate of All Worlds in St. Quentin City may be moved here, while others say that this is a newly built magic research base in the kingdom, so no one is allowed to approach it casually.

And today, the mystery is revealed.

On hundreds of kilometers of flat strip stands a huge "island".

The flat area of this island alone is estimated to be more than a dozen kilometers, and judging from the shape and architecture above, it is clear that this island was not naturally generated.

At this time, in the eyes of everyone, this giant artificial island, which was originally stacked on the ground, is taking off.

During liftoff, both the lower part of the island, which resembles a floating structure, and the upper part of the compact structure, are shrouded in extremely powerful force fields. It seems that it is this force field that causes the whole island to fly.

This island is the floating city that was successfully built by the Arcane Skynet Management Company, and was named Genesis.

Floating City upwards at a constant speed or. Once it has fully lifted off and stabilized, it will serve as the aerial hub of the Arcane Skynet.

The construction of the floating city comes from the experience of the floating ship, but the difference between the two is that the floating ship does not have a permanent source power, so it still has to land, and the distance is too long, such as the sea between the two continents, it is impossible for the floating ship to complete.

The Floating City is different, from before it was born, the requirement for it is that once it lifts off, it will never fall.

Because it will take on the task of connecting many Skynet base stations from the air and connecting and relaying the base stations to each other.

Regarding its lift-off, the original design wizard engineers were the independent source force of the design, and then actively connected to the Skynet base stations in all directions after the lift-off was stable.

But then a bolder idea came up, that is, from the beginning, the arcane Skynet was used to provide the source force to try to lift off, that is, from the start, always maintain the connection with the Skynet, which is part of the Skynet, and the Arcane Skynet directly provides the source force to lift off.

After the success of the reverse connection, the source force of the nearby Skynet base station is no longer just gathered, but interacted.

This seems to be not as stable as the original plan, but it can be said that the effect and stability of the floating city have been tested since the liftoff stage, because if the source force transmitted is unstable or intermittent, it is very likely that the floating city will crash directly during the liftoff process.

But if this can be successful, the floating city can save a lot of space, and there is no need to place the source power core, which will be a hub in the future, but the source power of the floating city also comes from Skynet itself.

In order to directly lift the floating city into the air by relying on the source power of Skynet like this, the arcane skynet within more than a thousand kilometers in this vicinity has temporarily stopped using it, because the source power generated by the nearby Skynet base station is directed to the floating city to help it lift off.

Only after the liftoff of the floating city is completed and the reverse connection is successful, more Skynet base stations form an interaction, and this piece of Skynet will be restored by the Skynet management company.

Judging from the current lift-off, everything is going well, and it feels incredible.

"It really worked. Gera said to Solomon.

"It's still a little bit of time before it gets to the highest point it can reach, and then it's going to have to wait for it to smooth out, turn on the reverse connection, and form an interaction before it's really successful. Solomon said, and despite what he said, he still couldn't hide a smile from the corner of his mouth.

At this point, it can be said that the success rate is already very high.

A large number of mages and dwarven craftsmen were also watching from the place where the Floating City had risen, and this amazing achievement was created by them together.

The floating city stopped after rising to the highest point, and seemed to tremble for a moment, and then the tremor subsided, and a brilliant light shot out from the island-shaped floating land, shooting in all directions.

However, this state only lasted for a short time, and then it calmed down again and was suspended in the air.

"It worked. Solomon nodded, the movement of Genesis City just now means that the Skynet base station on the ground is gradually connecting with the floating city.

The people on the ground cheered, and Solomon and Gera were standing on a nearby cliff, and he did not want to go down to celebrate with them, but said to Gerla, "Let the nations be informed of the success of the Floating City, and remind them to be prepared, for this time it may go beyond the limit of boiling a frog in warm water." ”

"Be prepared, fishing was stopped in all the ports of Modo a week ago, and some precautions have been taken, but will the will of order really react?"

"It should be, the previous Arcane Skynet was built one base station at a time, and then connected, just like boiling a frog in warm water, it won't be too stimulating, but it's too obvious that the floating city connects and interacts with all Skynet base stations at the same time. We are part of the Will to Order, so no matter how much we fight with the High Elves, the Will of Order does not directly attempt to destroy us, because after we die, we still cannot escape the current order, and we will return to dust, dust to dust, and return to the order of source energy. Even if the High Elves are a race that claims to be favored by the Will of Order, the Will of Order is at most a near-infinite support for the Sun God Sindorem's Origin Power when he strikes, and does not directly intervene in the war, because it does not have real likes and dislikes in itself, and at most has different affinity tendencies. But this time it was different, he should have reacted, because the arcane Skynet has some similarities in nature to the way of belief in the gods, although it is not exactly the same, but in nature, it will form a disturbance and destruction of order. Therefore, the gods will be excluded from the material plane, existing in their kingdom of gods, and once they come, they will cause him to suppress, only the channel of faith will always exist, connecting the believers and the gods, and the arcane Skynet will always exist in the material plane of Keos. ”

"Isn't that the Will of Order sure to try to destroy Skynet this time?" Gera frowned.

'There's some risk, he's going to react. For a long time, Skynet has been built in the form of a base station, like boiling a frog in warm water, compared to the gods. Solomon stretched out his fingers and condensed a fist-sized ball of light in front of the two of them, which was very dazzling, and then he slid his finger, and on the other side appeared dots of light like glowworms, these points of light were very small, if they were single, they could not be compared with the previous ball of light at all.

"That's it. The gods are like this dazzling ball of light, and the existence of Skynet before is like this piece of light, and it is produced little by little, each generation may make the will of order feel, but it is within its tolerance, unlike the gods who appear undisguised. But every time the Skynet base station is generated and expanded, it actually secretly changes the order a little bit, only this time the floating city is too strong, but I think as long as he can withstand the reaction of the will of order, he will raise his threshold again. "Solomon said—

In the harbor of the city that never sleeps, the third cruise ship of the Olympia class, the Titanic, is welcoming the passengers who are about to board the ship.

The ship sailed from the Azure Continent to the City That Never Sleeps in a short time, and will carry passengers here before returning to the Emerald Continent to complete a round-trip voyage between the two continents, which is also a complete maiden voyage for it.

Rand walked up with the box, looked at the city that never sleeps with a little reluctance, looked in the farther direction, and then resolutely embarked on the way home. (To be continued.) )
