The ridge, which is a mixture of special alloys and runestones, extends from the base of the Sentinel Tower, as if it were a huge root, and as if it were a pipe, extending from the thunderhill to the plain, the wasteland area. The long-term magical erosion has marked the traces of the years for this civilized creation. The smooth alloy shell has become rough and pitted, and the solid runestone blessed by the elements is also mottled.

But the damage of the outer shell is only the appearance. Inside the "ridge", the ancient magical device still operates loyally. The normal function of the silver empire that maintains the tower of the sentinel may have declined, but the creation of the elves is still more reliable than humans.

A small team of elite steel rangers led by Solderin to the northern section of the No. 3 "ridge". Gao Wen, Amber, Sonya and the Elf Magi named Benner walked to the front of the team. They looked up and watched. The raised man-made structure is on the side of the "ridge", an ancient gate is quietly closed, and the mottled writing on the gate is still recognizable: the inspection port -iii.

"Since the Sentinel Tower has been completed and the civilized territory has been withdrawn, this gate has never been opened yet..." Sonya stepped forward and rubbed her emotions with the elf-style embossed lines on the gate. There are dozens of sentry towers on the border, but only one-third of the past seven hundred years have been effectively maintained and overhauled. Some of the towers are far from the silver empire, and some of the towers are deep in the extremely polluted areas. The maintained tower is completely dependent on the automatic repair system of the year to maintain its operation."

"Fortunately, the things that the elves make are mostly sturdy and durable," Gao Wen nodded, looking at the magician named Benner, "Banna Master, then I saw you."

With a slender eyebrow and a slim figure, Benner nodded. He came to the gate and took a strangely shaped maple-shaped metal plate from his body. The elf was painted on the surface of the gate. After somewhere in the relief, he began to inject magic into the relief.

The floating light flashed over the gate, and the old mechanical device began to run deep. Around the gate, a lock was unlocked in the shackle, but the gate itself remained motionless.

Benner looked at the immovable gate, shrugged his shoulders, and took a handful of elbows from the tool pocket at the waist and slammed it on one of the locks next to the gate: "Occasionally... these things need a little bit small help."

After three or five squats, an obvious snoring came from somewhere. The magic door that depicted the beautiful relief finally opened smoothly, revealing the dark passage inside.

Amber squinted: "Hey, I said... you can't match the elegant style of the legendary elves."

"If you look closely, you will find that the arc of my wrench is a perfect quarter arc. If it is to be said, this is elegance," the Elf Magister took a look at the amber while he put his tools. "The world There are many wrong impressions on the elves, and the labeling is very serious. As a half-elves, you can't be judged by these wrong impressions, little girl."

Amber suddenly turned his eyes, and Gao Wen did not entangle the elf. This race is elegant and not elegant. He walked toward the gate and reminded the people around him: "Everyone is uplifting here." There have been no living people in seven hundred years."

The soldiers crossed the gate and stepped into the main passage inside the "ridge", and at the moment they entered the passage, the smell of the waste soil was isolated.

Amber immediately sensed this subtle change. She looked back at the direction of the entrance and saw that the outside was a rotten twisted magical waste, but there seemed to be an invisible barrier blocking the door, the depressing magical breath. They did not enter the interior of the "ridge" at all.

“The entire tower of the sentinel is protected by a complex protection-filter system,” Sonya noticed the surprise on the amber face and patiently explained, “This is to prevent the magic tide from invading the core of the tower and disturbing the key spells inside. Operation, here is the main sensor and material circulation pipeline of the tower, although it is located at the periphery, the degree of protection is second only to the core area."

"It's amazing..." Amber groaned in surprise, raising his eyebrows and looking in the direction at the end of the corridor.

The ancient sensory device finally reacted after a few seconds of delay, and a magic lamp lit up in the corridor, illuminating the way forward. In the passage that had not been opened for seven centuries, everything seemed to have been completed in the past. The appearance of the time.

The grayish-white ground and walls extend in sight, and are adorned with a small amount of elf-like patterns and markers. The slightly curved roof is in addition to the magic lights, and you can see several huge pipes. Inlaid in the building material in a semi-buried state, the pipe is translucent, and there seems to be something constantly moving in the air.

Amber again became curious: "What are those in the tube?"

“The pipeline is a coolant,” says Banner. “In order to control this huge and complicated magic tower, a powerful magical mind is placed in the pedestal, which generates a lot of heat during operation, in order to prevent core meltdown. We have designed a very efficient cooling system. These coolants are only part of the system and there are more complex structures in front."

"Wow" Amber dragged the sound and made an exaggerated sigh, while watching Gao Wen quietly.

Gao Wen is now taking his eyes back from the pipes that run through the coolant. His face is calm, but his heart is thinking the same as amber:

The biggest problem with the rainbow generator is fever.

This cooling system can be used.

"To be honest, I am very interested in many of the techniques here," Gao Wen said casually. "Although this tower was built by human nations and elves, we did not touch on its technical parts... ...if you can, can you take a look at its heat exchange structure and cooling core later?"

When he heard Gao Wen, Benner and Sonya almost subconsciously exchanged a look, then the latter smiled: "The tower of the sentinel is shared and shared by all ethnic groups, of course, no problem."

Banner reminded: "But the magic skills of the elves and humans are far apart, and the rune structure is very different. This is why the technology of the sentry tower was almost entirely in the hands of the silver empire. It is not that we do not want to announce it. It is a human being that even if you touch the elves' runes, you can only do limited imitation. You should be clear about this."

"Of course, I know, I just look at it," Gao Wen said with a smile. "And we have made good progress in the rune field. Although humans still can't release the wizard's spells, we have mastered some runes. Translating techniques, the technology in this tower is somewhat valuable in our side."

"Then please," Banner nodded. "You were one of the builders of these towers. We have no reason to stop you. But for the purpose of protecting the silver empire property and preventing excessive technology leakage, please do not draw any drawing."

"Thank you very much, this is enough. I just have a look, refer to your design ideas for some magic devices."

Gao Wen expressed his gratitude, and then proceeded with the team to move forward, and under his calm face, what was hidden was a hint of excitement in his heart.

This is the highest technological crystallization of the Silver Empire, everything here... is the treasure! !

Of course, he didn't lie on the reason for entering the tower. He really wanted to understand what happened to these sentry towers, and this is one of his goals and even his mission to organize this vast project, but except Beyond this formal reason, he is also interested in the elf technology in the Sentinel Tower.

After the annihilation of the empire, these elves have the world's most advanced artificial intelligence technology, the most outstanding high-density rune technology, the most powerful anti-gravity technology! !

Of course, due to the historical legacy of the "original elf split", the elves themselves have a lot of black boxes to solve in these techniques, and all the magical skills of the elves have been almost incomprehensible to humans for a long time, and the two races have never been I thought about the possibility of technical communication, but... it doesn't matter.

Mathematics will explain the power of each rune and their best position.

Sonya and the Elf Magister, named Benner, walked quietly beside them. On the faces of the two elves, Gao Wen did not see much emotional fluctuations.

They don't mind Gao Wen to observe the core structure of the tower, and don't mind that his technology is in the hands of humans.

The reason is only the friendship of the various ethnic groups who joined hands to build the tower of the sentinel seven hundred years ago? Or is it because of their friendship with "Gaowen Cecil"? Or... they haven't realized that the Cecils have fully mastered the technique of using rune logic to reorganize the runes of the elves, without realizing that humans are able to completely control the magic of the elves, not just on the shells. A blessing of the wind element?

To be honest, the other party so happy to agree to his request or let Gao Wen a little unexpected, he had even prepared to secretly study in the tower of the sentinel, but since the other party has promised ... there is no reason for Gao Wen Missed this opportunity.

Although Gavin Cecil, seven hundred years ago, was erudite, but more as a military commander, he did not have a deep understanding of its technology when building the Sentinel Tower. Humans seven hundred years ago are experiencing greatness. The recession, but also facing the "interracial magic can not understand" gap, although participated in the repair of the tower, but also did not touch the core technology of the latter, so today's opportunity is extraordinarily valuable.

The team continued to advance to the core area of ​​the Sentinel Tower base, and each time a distance was reached, Sonya or Banner would ask the team to pause to check the operation of those critical devices.

"This is the inductive center of the entire No. 3 'ridge'." In the middle of the corridor, Banner stopped again. He came to a square pillar with pale gold in the gray and white connected to the roof and floor. Next, while taking out the tool, he said, "All the induction centers are connected together. In theory, no matter which one of the six 'ridges' is out of order, you should be able to see the problem in any one of the induction centers..."

During the talk, the magician has removed a cover plate on the pillar. After the protective cover is removed, a large number of metal pieces with intricate magical runes engraved on the surface are presented to everyone. In front of you.

These metal sheets piled up in layers on the inside of the column. Banna stretched out his hand and swung around the metal piece. Some of the metal pieces immediately disengaged from their respective positions and flew into the air. With a serious expression on his face, Bangna controlled the metal pieces one by one from his own eyes, while carefully observing their situation. After observing it, he went to other pillars. The metal pieces infused with magic to sense their operation.

"...all the induction centers are functioning normally, and the six 'ridge' sensors are intact," said Banner, frowning. "The signal from the waste side is also clear."

Sophia asked: "What about the communication with the mind of the devil?"

"Communication is good, there is almost no delay, and the operation of the devil's mind seems to be normal," Banna said, turning the metal blades into place with magic, then looked up at the end of the corridor. "The front is the tower of the sentinel." The control center of the pedestal, perhaps we should go directly to check its 'brain'."
