The magic wave observation device and the mental unity field system are the technological treasures that the Neue people have used for thousands of years to unearth the heritage left by the pioneers. However, even with this level of technology, they are facing the magic wave. In fact, it is just "just enough".
The limited mental unity field can only be used to filter out part of the information in the real universe, and the magic tide observation device needs to provide the entire protection system with a sufficiently accurate "sample frequency" to ensure that the frequency of the protection barrier is in the correct position. These two systems The cooperation must be accurate, and once the slightest loophole appears... the fragile mind of a mortal simply cannot hold on to the moment of correcting the mistake.
"Speaking of the Noi...Has the upgrade of the super-light communication array of the Krakens completed?" Gawain suddenly thought of this, and casually asked Rebecca next to him.
Due to the hardware limitation of Antavien’s superluminal communication array, the communication between the Alliance of Loren and Noy Civilization has always been maintained at an extremely difficult level. For this reason, the Sea-Monsters decided to replace the communication system with a Voyager Energy Crystal. In order to solve this problem, this repair work has been going on for a long time.
As the only super-light communication device is under overhaul, the current communication between Loren and Noy has actually been interrupted. Although knowing that this is a necessary process, for the current situation where the tide of magic is pressing, two civilizations It is not a good thing to be out of touch for a long time-this will not only make the tension between the two sides gradually rise, but also make it difficult to respond in time when encountering problems.
"Last time Tyre contacted the home country and said that it has reached the final stage of debugging," Rebecca nodded immediately, and then added an explanation, "It took a little longer than planned, mainly because The technology used by the Sailor Crystal is quite special. Even if it needs to be analyzed and modified at the level of the Kraken, Tyre said that the first attempt to install it also caused an accident. It seems that the technical team on the spot was completely wiped out-light, etc. They waited for several days for their resurrection."
Gao Wen: "...they are just happy. What about the situation on the Nuoyi side?"
"They have been keeping sending. As agreed before the end of the communication last time, although the Loren Alliance cannot send out messages, they can receive broadcasts from them," Rebecca replied, "Reno Yiren has successively sent some technical data, all related to the magic wave observation device or the unified field of mind. It can be regarded as a "reference document" that helps us understand these two technologies. In addition, they also sent some My profile and history have been archived, and you can take a look if you are interested."
Gao Wen nodded slightly, and at this moment, the Monet terminal in the office suddenly heard a buzzing, and an information projection emerged from the focusing crystal. Jenny glanced at the content on the projection and turned to look towards Gao Wen: "Your Majesty, the conference system is ready, and participants from various countries are connecting."
"Let's go there too," Gawain nodded, and walked straight to the office door, "You both want to attend."
Jenny and Rebecca immediately followed Gawain’s footsteps, and the three of them left the office, but did not go to the "network meeting room" used to hold the alliance online meeting, but went directly to another one on the same floor. Two rooms-this room is spacious and empty, with no furnishings. Only a silver-white metal pillar is placed in the center of the room, and several immersion cabins are arranged around the pillar.
At this moment, three of the immersion cabins are in a standby state, the hatches are open, and the lights representing the power-on are flickering around their bases.
Gao Wen took a breath, and led Rebecca and Jenny to the three immersion cabins that were already prepared. The nature of this meeting was very special, with few participants, strong professionalism and confidential content, so He set the venue directly in a safe space deep in the neural network.
The familiar and short-lived dizziness faded quickly, and the chaotic light and shadow in front of them regrouped into a sunny, vast and pleasant sea of white flowers. Gawain and the three of them arrived at this special space managed by Bertila, and in front of them, A round table is gradually condensing from the air, and figures around the round table are quickly consolidating and emerging.
The first thing he saw was the flower vine descending from the sky and Bersetia walking out of the flower vine. The high-ranking astrology master Ms. Vilania appeared next to his queen, and then the solemn black gate descending from the sky. , And Rosetta Augustus, who pushed the door out of it, followed by the Typhon King, the legendary Mage Windsor Mapel.
The leaders of these two empires appeared to be particularly eye-catching-after all, their special effects were kryptonized.
And after them, Gawain saw a familiar face—a middle-aged man wearing a pale golden robe with a blond hair, majestic and calm appearance, the current leader of Talrond. One, the golden dragon Heragol.
Beside Herragor stood another middle-aged man with short gray hair, a firm face, and a tall nose. Gao Wen was no stranger to him—this is the leader of the Holy Dragon Principality, the Grand Duke of Dragon Blood, Balogre. .
Unlike Rosetta and Bersetia, they brought the highest technical adviser beside them when they attended the conference. Neither of the two dragon leaders brought any entourage when they came out, but Gawain was not surprised. .
He already knew the history of the dragon from Enya, and of course he knew that the two dragon leaders in front of him were actually the most outstanding technical experts and naturalists among the dragons. They didn’t need any consultants, because whether it was in Tarron De is still in the Principality of Holy Dragon, and there are no scholars who understand the magic tide better than them.
"Everyone is here," Gawain glanced over the figures that emerged by the round table, and then opened the door to break the silence. "Everyone knows what we are discussing today, so we will abandon all the red tape and go straight. Take your seat."
Several leaders and the technical consultants they brought nodded and sat down in their respective positions. Gao Wen then said: “Before starting the discussion, I will emphasize two things. First, this matter will involve To the fate of the entire world, it is no longer the honor or disgrace of any country or race, and in the future we will not have any chance to make up for any mistakes that may be made today. Therefore, we must abandon all prejudices and conservative ideas. From a pragmatic point of view, even if some opinions may be offensive or even contrary to common sense, as long as it helps solve the problem, they can be put forward.
"Secondly, technical feasibility is the first priority. The suggestions of technical experts here take precedence over the personal ideas of any political or military leader, and take precedence over any political trade-offs. If one thing is technically determined, it is impossible. If it works, then there is no need to continue the discussion. If it is technically feasible, then it has argumentative value."
"I agree with this," Rosetta Augustus was the first to respond, and he nodded solemnly to Gawain, "I have already learned about the'Unification Field of Mind' and'Before I came here. The relevant information about the Anti-Divine Barrier is psychologically prepared for the possible scale of this project. There is no hesitation in this matter. No matter what plan we ultimately adopt, we have only one chance for trial and error."
"Well, we shouldn't have to discuss the theoretical overview of the observation device and the unified field of mind. The main thing to be solved today is the specific engineering problem." Gawain put his hands on the table and leaned forward slightly. "In short, if According to the technical blueprint given by the Noi people, we need to build an array of force field generators that can cover the entire planet to be able to fully resist the magic wave, but in fact, this is almost impossible to achieve.
"Now there is only less than one and a half years left until the arrival of the magic wave. Even if the existing anti-divine barrier devices can all be transformed into the unity of mind field generators, their scale is far from meeting this demand.
"So, we need a solution. On the basis of existing technology and productivity, how to build a usable ‘doomsday shelter’ with the resources and equipment at hand... I want to hear your opinions."
Gawain’s voice fell, leaving room for discussion and thinking to the others at the round table. He saw Rosetta and Bersetia talking in a low voice with the technical advisers behind them, while the two dragon leaders kept their faces. Shen Sishui did not speak in a posture. After a while, he saw Rosetta Augustus looking up and casting his gaze here.
"After receiving the information from Cecil before, experts from the Imperial Industrial Engineering Association and the Royal Mage Association urgently discussed a plan," Rosetta said with a solemn expression and a solemn tone, "Do we have to do it? An amazing shield covering the entire planet comes out? The scale of this thing is too unimaginable and too difficult to realize. Is it possible to go back and build one or several smaller barriers? For example... a group of shelters?"
Windsor Mapel then added: "We believe that it is possible to build independent shelters by building barriers over major cities. It is relatively easy to build a city-level magical protective force field and a supporting energy system. Realized technology, and countries also have a lot of practical experience..."
While talking, the president of the Typhon Royal Mage Association stretched out his hand and waved gently in the air twice. A clear magical illusion immediately appeared in the air in front of her. The illusion showed exactly what A group of sanctuary cities shrouded by some kind of force field shield, and a certain large-scale, unsupervised facility group.
"This is the'refuge metropolitan group' we are conceiving," Ms. Windsor Mapel introduced Typhon's plan. "Every city needs to be renovated. In addition to installing a full set of protection systems, it also needs to be housed. Expand the capacity to accommodate as many refugees as possible...
"Each refuge has a basic and complete set of production facilities and sufficient material reserves, which can ensure that the city can last for more than one year when the city is completely closed, and the cities are independent of each other, and no personnel or materials will enter or leave during the magic wave. , The communication between cities is completed by neural network-neural network is protected by non-directional thoughts and is the only safe information communication channel under the state of magic tide.
"In addition to the refuge, there are unmanned facilities like this, which are maintained by'low-mind individuals' such as golems or tarings. These facilities include the wilderness nodes of the neural network, and the production and storage outside the city. Facilities, large energy stations that cannot be shut down, etc. These things must continue to operate even during the magic wave, on the one hand to maintain the basic operation of the refuge urban group, on the other hand, to allow society to quickly recover after the end of the magic wave Production order..."
Windsor Mapel’s narration is clear, and the phantom model used for the demonstration also has sufficient details and auxiliary parameters. Obviously, Typhon’s people are very well prepared in the plan.
Refuge metropolis, this is the solution that Typhon people thought of-since planet-level shields are too unbelievable to achieve, it is better to dismantle the big shields into small shields and transform large cities into refuges. Accommodating the population, although every refuge will be extremely crowded in this way, the living environment and quality of life are difficult to guarantee, but at least this thing can be made, and... anyway, the demonic wave will last for half a year to a year. , Ren Ren also passed.
I have to say that this is a very attractive and feasible plan. Gawain even made up at least two million words of novel stories based on the urban background of the refuge in his mind. Firme can at least shoot a series of movies, but after a short mind is released, he has to forget all the romantic and emotional stories in his mind, leaving only the cold reality and The harsh numbers--
"How many people do we need to give up?" He looked into Windsor Mapel's eyes with a particularly serious expression.
"It depends on the different population bases, urban levels, and industrial bases of each country. Even if sufficient aid forces are gathered within the alliance to help countries build shelters, the number of people abandoned will be an astonishing number," Windsor Mapel said calmly. Facing Gao Wen’s gaze, “At present, we have estimated the situation of Typhon. The refuge metropolitan area can only accommodate one-half of the population of the country, and this number should be considered very high among the alliance countries. The situation in the country will be worse.
"After all, although some small countries have a smaller population, their industrial base and urban standards are also weaker. Refuge cities are built on the basis of fully functional and modern cities."
Gao Wen's face was sinking, without saying a word, while Jenny and Rebecca sitting beside him let out a slight whisper.
Obviously, the sacrifices accompanying this plan have exceeded their expectations.
"What if the'capacity' of each shelter should be increased as much as possible?" Jenny suddenly said, "Push in as many people as possible. After all, the magic wave lasts only about half a year to a year, everyone. All you need to do is to survive in the refuge for up to one year..."
"My estimate just now is already a limit value, Master Jenny," Windsor Mapel said calmly. "The population of each shelter is within the limit range, and the rationing of supplies for everyone is only one level higher than the bottom line of survival. Little bit, and in this process, the over-allocation of the "privileged population" has been erased in advance. According to the plan, people including the royal family and senior military and political officials will only have the same material and living space quotas as ordinary people in the refuge city. To maximize the chance of survival."
Jenny was at a loss for words: "This..."
"In the final analysis, it is not only the supplies that restrict the sheltered population, but also the scale and number of shelters," Windsor Mapel continued. It is impossible to pack the entire population of every country into the city of refuge."
