Sandora and I soon arrived at the Tavel Institute, and it was true that Harlan was here: As an expert in the abyss, Harlan is now one of the leaders of the deep dive project.

Tavel did n’t follow us, he opened the door and went straight to the subject as soon as he met: "The confirmation message was sent again from the deep diving port. There are indeed a lot of wrecks under the gate of the abyss. At present, these wrecks are slowly moving to the real world. The exact number is unknown and the interference is too strong. "

"Is it from the opposite bank?" Sandora looked into Tavel's eyes and asked questions that were of concern to everyone present.

"Unsure for the time being, we do not have the technology to track the abyss drifters, and to be honest, the presence of wreckage in the abyss itself is no longer possible," Tavel shook his head, "any ordered material will quickly crack in the abyss environment. Collapse, its dissipation speed is even faster than in the void. If something like a deep submersible ship encounters a fault such as a shield shutdown in the abyss, it will be decomposed in about ten minutes, leaving no wreckage at all. It is even more impossible to 'drift' for some distance, and the subordinates think that the wrecks are very weird and there are too many doubts. "

I turned to look at Harlan: "What measures have you taken now?"

"Monitoring temporarily while blocking the deep dive port," Harlan spread his hand, "I was going to salvage them for a look, but suddenly I remembered that the fallen apostles had already studied the abyss submarine technology, and they were able to Sailing in the shallow abyss, in case these wrecks are traps or the like made by them, it will be a big trouble to salvage them. "

Harlan's words made me wake up instantly from the state of excitement. I felt my hair and said that I was fortunate that the old traitor in front of me ... thoughtful and stayed in the fallen apostolic camp for a long time. What he was worried about might really happen. .

"But you can't just leave it alone," Sandorale thought, and thought about it. "Sooner or later, I need to salvage those things and take a look. In case it really comes from the other side and we miss it, the loss will be great. I It is estimated that they cannot be sustained for a long time in the abyss. This way. Let ’s go to the deep-dive port to sit in town. Ajun used to support the audience in the past. If it was really something that the fallen apostles had made, they would be purified on the spot—they are no bigger He can't resist Ah Jun's prodigal son ... "

I quickly covered Sandora's mouth: "The name of that pit father's skill need not be said!"

Tavel nodded expressionlessly: "The subordinate is going to prepare the shuttle. Depending on the state of the debris, they can support it for a long time. Her Majesty need not worry."

When Tavel left for the time being, I turned to Harlan: "Do you want to follow? You belong to the expert."

"Of course I have to go and see," Harlan smiled. "If it's from the other side, it's okay to say, if it's really coming from the abyss ... it will be the old friend of the past. Don't grab me then Ah, I haven't done much since I moved to camp. "

I was speechless. It is truly worthy of being produced by the spirit. Uncle Harlan, who usually looks at the mature and reliable brother, is like explosives in Pandora's bones. He sees the fighting spirit in the eyes of the other person. He grew up with soilless cultivation of nitroglycerin. of……

Soon Tavier was ready for everything. A few of us took the shuttle to the deep dive port, but Tavier did not board the boat with us because she already had seven or eight quality projections. The ground is waiting. This ubiquitous schizophrenic spectacles can reach the entire territory of the empire in an instant, with high-level fine points. You deserve it-what a mess ...

Due to security considerations, the deep diving port has special security measures. There is no way to jump directly through the gate of the world. Therefore, it can only be reached by a high-speed shuttle, which has been delayed for more than two hours. But Tavel was right: the wreckage was in good shape. And visual inspection can persist for a long time in the abyss environment. When we arrive at the deep diving port, the latter is not only not destroyed by the abyss, but is still approaching the world of order unhurriedly. The door was closed and I had nothing to do with it.

The deep dive port is still the same, a solitary abyss gate floats in space, and numerous suppression towers control its activities around. At the critical point of the Abyss Gate, a control platform for monitoring the port and various auxiliary facilities were built. The only difference from the last time we came here is that there are many more space buildings here: some of them are laboratories for conducting several new special studies that require a large-scale abyss environment, and we ca n’t always This environment was moved to Shadow City, so Tavel built many of these laboratories near the deep dive port, and now they look almost a dense asteroid belt. The remaining new buildings are mainly shield broadcasting towers and measurement and control facilities: Since the last time the control platform of the deep diving port was destroyed by the "black shuttle", Tavel has paid special attention to improving the security level at the port site, although we do not know These shield broadcasting towers and measurement and control points have geometric effects on things like "Black Shuttle", but they are better than none.

The shuttle landed smoothly at the upper port of the control platform, and we met Tavill, who had been waiting for a long time (mass projection), and she saluted us: "Her Majesty, the observation room and the deep submersible ship are ready Ready. "

I yelled: "Uh ... I'm meeting again. It's convenient for you to be everywhere."

"In fact, Your Majesty can also consider making a quality projection," Tavier's unaware of the quality projection number suggested. "Subordinates can specially design a quality projection that meets your daily senses, so Your Majesty can handle some needs to run around. Things are more convenient. Is Her Majesty Sandora and Heran interested?

"No!" We said in unison, and then I looked at Harlan and Sandora curiously. "Why don't you like this? I don't have this schizophrenic habit, but you seem to be able to manipulate your body in multiple threads. Right? "

Harlan shook his head cheerfully: "My multi-threading is specialized in fighting. It would be fine for you to give me one or two thousand floating guns, but it ’s really useless to have a few more bodies, and I do n’t often Business trip. "

Sandora also shook her head: "I can control the quality projection and have used this before, but I don't like it very much. Unleashing the power of the spirit grabber through the quality projection will have a sense of misaligned perspective. In the final analysis, this is the research and development personnel. The skills I use are not suitable for our combat system. And ... "Sandora said here and gave me a glance. "And if I stand in front of you in seven or eight, no matter which one you kiss, I have the illusion of being robbed of my husband by myself, and you have to consider what is interesting about this matter, she That mind was crowded with unlimited ideas. I really want to split it into a quality projection. I guarantee that she can make more than 100,000 people with different personalities ... "

I didn't dare to continue thinking on this topic at once: I almost explored the height of ethics!

In the center of the control platform is the largest laboratory of the deep diving port. This occupancy ... well, I do n’t know how many large buildings are directly connected to the high-sensitivity signal towers around the control platform, and these signal towers are connected to the abyss at the same time. The suppression tower around the gate and several unmanned observation stations inside the gate, through a complex information forwarding path, we can safely observe the movements inside the gate of the abyss. The last time we recaptured the advanced communicator made in the fifteen days of the Old Empire period from the Mellows, Tavel and Alleria have reverse engineered that communicator. And apply its principle to various deep diving facilities. Now it is much easier to understand the situation inside the gate outside the gate of the abyss than before, and the "view" you see is much clearer than before.

In the largest observation center of the Central Laboratory, Tavel points to a set of pictures on a holographic projection: "Those are the wrecks."

I looked at the holographic image in front of me. This image is a direct observation image from the observation station located inside the gate of the abyss. Those observation stations have a short life span, but they can return clear and first-hand information during working hours. This is an amazing technological advancement-although I have never figured it out.

There is only a dark area in most of the images. The most obvious thing you can see in this dark background is the erratic cloud. These clouds appear and disappear continuously, which is the most puzzling "shock phenomenon" in the abyss activities. Between these clouds is what Tavel called "debris". I tried to distinguish the shapes of those things for a long time: they seemed to be scattered pieces of different shapes, different sizes.

No wonder they can be judged to be wrecks. Looking at this form, it must be what the big thing looks like after it is broken.

Nothing can be observed directly in the abyss. Because all observations are based on "order", you must have at least "measures" and "data" in order to describe whether something exists or does not exist, and what it looks like. It takes volume to describe objects, temperature to describe hot and cold, distance and coordinates to describe location-and these ordered data are all confusing in the abyss. Therefore, the observation method usually used in an abyss environment is "indirect comparison". A certain area is scanned with an information induction radar, and then a second pass is scanned after a short period of time. The results of the two scans are overlapped to remove duplicate data. The rest The "anti-white" part is the abyss picture (this picture is only theoretical, there is no entity in the real abyss). Even for special existences like Sandora and I, after entering the gate of the abyss, we "see" things in the same way, except that our observation medium has changed from radar signals to spirit and will. Having said so much here, I just want to mention one thing-if under normal circumstances, everything we see in the abyss should only be vague silhouettes, but those wrecks are real and can distinguish the details "In kind"!

It's almost as clear as the direct observation of the naked eye, even the color!

If you don't consider that it is just a pile of debris, this scene is not impossible-if it is a deep-submersible ship that is operating normally, then because it maintains an environment similar to the order field, this environment passes through itself The method of interpretation guarantees its own orderliness, and it can naturally be directly observed as it is now, but those things are obviously just a pile of debris, there is no shield around them, there is no triple refresh protection layer, and even no energy reaction, That's a bunch of dead material pieces. How did they keep it like this?

At this time, the laboratory's system broadcast interrupted his thoughts: "The self-inspection of the deep dive ship was completed, and the dive started in 15 minutes."

Sandora touched my arm, and then I remembered that I had come here to act as a safety hydrant. At present, looking at the large and small fragments is not like something made by the fallen apostles, but just in case Get ready. I felt my chin and considered it, and decided to make a decision: "I'll follow it, and it should be safer to open the protective layer from the inside."

"Are you sure?" Sandora looked at it a bit unexpectedly. "The same is true of opening a barrier outside. Deep dives are prone to accidents."

"It's okay," I smiled indifferently. "The ancestors are all on the deep dive boat. They are not afraid of accidents. I'm afraid of accidents in this undead body. Tavel, it's okay to add a personal dive boat ? "

"No problem," Tavel (mass projection) replied immediately, then she turned to her assistant and said a few words, "It's ready, you can go to port one. Another quality under you The projection is there to respond. "

Me: "..." You simply reserved all the posts here by yourself.

It took me no effort to come to the deep dive ship. This is the first time I stepped into this very special spaceship, so I can't help but be curious about everything around me. I can't help but look around when I enter the spaceship's main control room. stand up. This redesigned spacecraft has relatively abundant crew space. Although it can not be compared with those large starships that often place a space city inside, it is still very spacious for short-term navigation, but I looked around and found here It's no different from ordinary imperial ships: simple and bright silver and white battleships, and occasionally blue light that can be seen on the wall or ceiling. There are data terminals everywhere, and self-discipline machines responsible for daily maintenance of the spacecraft that slowly fly through the air. These things are often seen on other spacecraft. The function is a bit special. The shape is a bit weird, so it does not become like a shaped hatch from the inside to the outside-I don't know what is going on, as long as I touch the abyss, I always associate with some strange and strange scenes ...

"Your Majesty?" Anthers' voice came from the side. "You just received a transmission signal. Why did you come in person?"

The ancestors sat in two rows on the seats in the main control room. They were all wearing the new empire's military uniforms, and the collar had special markings of the deep diving project department. Each of them was neatly dressed and serious, and several of them were still busy typing instructions on the console, watching as if they had become quite professional deep-submersible ship operators. Anthers and several ancestors were turning around to look at the conveyor in amazement, apparently feeling a bit surprised when I came in person.

I waved at him: "I'm here to serve you as a shield, don't mind, just dive down, you just treat me as a spaceship part ..."

Anthers knows my habit of talking with wind, and probably understands what I mean, so I wo n’t ask any more, but turn around and continue to unlock the various equipment limitations of the deep submarine: Many special equipment, these things have a limited service life or have a strong interference with the surrounding environment (such as the shield device that simulates the world barrier, when it is turned on, it will seriously affect the stability of the surrounding space), so only Turn it on manually when you are about to dive. I watched Anthus look at these things with ease and couldn't help muttering: "It seems that you learn these new things quite quickly."

"Teaching procedures, memory input, everything is quick," Anthes shrugged. "Just learning how to use these devices is very easy, and it can be directly implanted into the memory. Even their principles can be directly input into the brain. , But it ’s too difficult to become a knowledge that we can master flexibly. We can now backfire against many advanced theories, but no one knows what it means to memorize ... I'm afraid we have to spend a long time to understand ourselves. The textbooks in my head. Well, this is also good, at least there is something to do. "

There is at least something to do-this seems to be the life motto of the old ancestors, at least it is the life motto of Anthes, "cannot become a person who is not useful at any time", they are pushing the next step of this creed Step to today.

"The dive boat is approaching the gate of the abyss," Anthus said after a few minutes. "There may be a little vibration, it is best to sit in a chair."

I waved at him ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ while turning into a void form, I released my own power: "Don't worry about me, I'd better not touch anything in this form, it's easy to break the chair."

Anthers stared blankly at Her Majesty, an emperor who had become a black faceless man, with an incredible look: "This is ..."

Then I remembered that this should be the first time the other party saw his own void form, and he was quite understandable about his current look of surprise: "Oh, this is what the legendary void creature looks like. Do n’t look at how difficult it is Understand, but still quite powerful. "

Anthes nodded immediately: "Oh, it's still facing this way, I thought it was your back."

Me: "... Ship with peace of mind, sail with peace of mind."

You said that I had a big face, and who was it? Why should individuals be surprised?

In short, the deep submarine finally passed the gate smoothly, and I did not feel too strong a shock. A few minutes later, the weird wreckage from nowhere appeared on the monitor: I didn't expect it to be so close to the real world. (To be continued ...)
