The dirty clouds covered the scorched and rotten land, and the valleys, plains, hills and basins, which were soaked by high-intensity magic energy for seven centuries, are surrounded by the shadows of the defeated and the distorted monsters. The chaotic and disorderly wind passes through the pores between the rugged and hideous rock pillars and loose rock walls, and stirs up a whimpering low sound on the earth, and the low sound is mixed with some stimulating smell - the breath produced by the magic power decomposing the air.

In the heart of the ancient Gondor Empire, in a valley hundreds of kilometers away from the Deep Blue Well explosion pit, a "base" composed of huge rocks and twisted giant trees is quietly lurking among the rocks.

The dark brown vines with mixed roots meander through the mountain walls on both sides, intertwining above the valley into a huge structure like a spider web. Branches with thorns extend between the vines, cutting the originally dim and terrifying sky into more fine and messy strips. The valley covered by the thorn web is covered with huge rocks, and vines and thorns are also connected between the stone pillars, forming countless structures like huge walls. Many "pipes" formed by wooden structures extend from nearby rocks. The precious water source from the underground flows out from the pipelines and flows into the valleys that seem rough and messy, but are actually carefully designed water supply networks.

This is a land that is gloomy and terrifying for creatures outside the wasteland, but for the twisted creatures living deep in the wasteland, it is the most comfortable shelter and the most suitable place to live.

Countless strange-shaped giant trees and controlled distortions are moving in this "living place". They use this place as their foundation to build their own "territories", and at the same time slowly expanding their own power outside the valley.

In the middle of the valley, there is an extremely open area. The thorn dome above the area has a large opening, and some dim skylight can shine into this gloomy place. On a circle of high platforms around the open area, several dry and twisted human-faced giant trees are standing at the top of the huge rocks. They quietly overlook the spiral deep pit below the platform, and a faint blue arcane light bursts out from the pit and reflects on their dry and mutated faces.

After a long time, the leader of the tree man spoke, his voice as if a cracked wooden board was rubbing in the air: "Is this the vein that runs through our planet... It's as beautiful as blood vessels, and the huge magic power flowing inside is like blood... If you can drink this blood, the real eternity is indeed not a distant thing..."

"Oh, our respectable Grand Master has such a poetic side..." A young female voice came from behind the tree man leader, and then another almost identical voice came next to this voice, "It's a pity that there are no poets in this desolate valley—and no psalms worth singing."

The tree leader, known as the "Grand Priest", turned around and the sound of kala came from his wooden torso. His yellow-brown eyes stared at the elf Gemini who was walking up the platform from behind: "Are you so leisurely every day?"

"We're doing a lot, but you can't see it," Firna said with a smile, and then Lenna beside her spoke, "Most of our hard work revolves around mental labor - it really doesn't seem as busy as those distorted bodies that carry stones inside and outside the valley to dig ditches."

The leader of the tree man seemed to have become accustomed to the elves Gemini's always provocative and infuriating way of speaking. He snorted and withdrew his gaze, turned around and fell into the deep pit under the high platform.

It was a deep pit with obvious traces of artificial excavation, with a diameter of more than a hundred meters. Its edges were piled with neat black stones, and the surface of the stone was shining. Countless complex and mysterious magic lines outlined a powerful magic array that had long been lost in this era. At the bottom of this circle of "stone rings", there was a scattered pit wall that twisted like a vortex, and extended down the pit wall for dozens of meters. It was the terrifying "bottom of the pit"-

There are no rocks and soil, no ground that can be trampled, and only one rushing blue flame flowing after another is flowing in a vast and void space.

The soil and rocks came to an abrupt end there, and the bottom of the pit seemed to lead to an endless wide place, which even gave people the illusion that the planet under the feet of sentient beings had only this thin shell, and this deep pit pierced through this shell, allowing people to directly see the hollow structure of the planet's internal cavity - countless streams of blue flames formed a crisscrossing network in that space, as the tree leader just said, they looked like intertwined blood vessels.

But the scene of this "planet hollow" is actually just a visual illusion - of course the inside of this planet is not hollow, and this large pit with a diameter of only a hundred meters cannot penetrate the planet's crust. The scene of surging at the bottom of the pit is just a "crack" projected by magic. The environment at the bottom of the pit is closer to a teleportation entrance, and what it presents... is a magic network that mortal races cannot directly contact.

It is the essence deep in the deep blue well, buried deep in the lower layer of the real world and running through the entire planet.

"Such a huge amount of magic power flows in the deep blue network, connecting all the realms of this planet and exchanging huge energy..." The leader of the tree man stared at the bottom of the pit, and after a long time he spoke in a deep voice, "It's like the 'source' of magic..."

"People who don't know the inside story are indeed prone to such an illusion when they see the original body of the Deep Blue Net. They regard the magic cycle inside a mere planet as the source of all magic power in the world - just like a short-sighted worm ants climbing up a grass leaf, thinking that they have reached the end of the earth," Firna shook her head, and then Lenna shook her head, "But this is a shallow cognition after all, the magic comes from stars and the 'sub-star bodies' like our sun, which are the singing of the huge and ancient celestial bodies in this vast ocean of the universe - compared with the ripples from the stars, the deep blue well on our planet..."

The elf Gemini chuckled softly, but there was a hint of mockery in her sweet smile: "It's just a puddle that shines under the sun, reflecting the sunlight and shining brightly, but it will evaporate and disappear in just a moment in front of the eternal sun."

The tree leader's eyes fell on the pair of Gemini with sweet smiles. The brown eyes were still as solid as if they were frozen. It took him a long time to break the silence: "Sometimes I am really curious, where do you mysterious knowledge come from... Don't say what ancient inheritance of the elves or the secret information of the Gondor Empire, I have experienced the Gondor era and have traveled to many parts of the Silver Empire. Although I dare not say that I have gained insight into all the knowledge in the world, I can at least be sure... many of the things you know are not areas that ordinary people have ever touched."

"Is this question important?" Firna tilted her head gently, "Facts finally prove the authenticity of the knowledge we bring, and you have gained great benefits from this knowledge..."

"We accurately judged the location of another 'vein flow' in the ancient Gondor Empire," Leerna also tilted her head gently, "and guided you how to steal energy from the deep blue well to open this vein. ********** Ling Gemini smiled at the same time, saying in unison: "We have always been doing our best to help - unfortunately, you always seem to have countless doubts and caution."

The tree leader stared at the smiling elf Gemini, and a cold snorted dissatisfied from his wooden body: "Hmph, your mysterious way of speaking and annoying smirk can only make me more suspicious... No one has ever taught you how to speak well?"

"Well, if you ask," said the Elf Gemini in unison, "then we can talk to you in a more serious way in the future."

"...No, let's forget it," the leader of the tree man remembered something, and shook his dry tree canopy in a disgusting tone. "Imagine what you would look like when you speak seriously... that's too disgusting."

The elves seemed to be completely distracted by such mean comments. They just turned their heads with a smile, their eyes fell on the pit under the high platform, staring at the "Deep Blue Net" that was constantly surging in another dimension. After a few seconds, they suddenly spoke: "We must remind you, Lord Bolken, your last action was too risky. Although you will not encounter the 'eyes' from the real world and gods in the elemental realm, nor will you alarm the ancient ghost parasitized in the server matrix deep in the wasteland, the elemental world has its own rules... The troubles there are no easier to deal with than those guys outside the wall."

"...No need to remind you, I know what I'm doing," the leader of the tree man responded coldly. "We need more parameters from Deep Blue Network to determine the best control node. We have been wasting too much time in this step. In order to break through this layer of obstacles, it is completely worth taking a little risk."

"Well, since you are so confident, we are not inconvenient to say more," Gemini shook her head, and Leerna then added, "But we still want to remind you that the network nodes opened here are not safe. Under no circumstances should we try to directly intercept anything from these veins... Almost eighty percent of them flow to the deep blue well in the center of the old empire, the ghost parasitized in the server matrix... Maybe she has declined a little, but she still controls these most powerful 'tributaries'."

"Don't worry, I'll notice that we are not as 'hungry as food' as yet."

The head of the prefect Bolken left a sentence in a slightly stiff tone, then he wriggled his roots and turned around and walked slowly under the platform. The trees standing with him also moved one by one, leaving here one by one.

The platform made of ringed boulders were only the elves Gemini, and the ever-increasing wind on the wasteland that wandered around them.

"Impatient, really impatient..." Leerna shook her head and sighed, "Humans are really impatient creatures. Even if the life form becomes like this, it will not improve much."

"But it is this 'impulsive' personality that allows these creatures with short lifespans to create countless surprises," Firna laughed. "Don't you expect such surprises?"

"Okay, that's true..."

...

On the northern foot of the Dark Mountains, southwest of Cecil City, the large-scale confidential facility "Project 115" hidden deep in the mountains and dense forests. The mountain cave where the main test site is located is brightly lit.

The high-power magic crystal lamps placed in the ceiling shine brightly, illuminating countless large and small platforms on the test site and the complex frame structures fixed and connected between the platforms. A large number of equipment that are still in the prototype are undergoing testing and adjustment in their respective platform areas. Hundreds of technicians are busy all over the test site, and engineering vehicles and small patrol vehicles are constantly commuting on the road between the platforms.

In the center of the test site, a special large platform had just finished adjusting. Rebecca walked up the steps and walked towards the test area in the center of the platform. Behind her was Gao Wen who came from Cecil City.

"Sir, we finally settled this guy!" Standing in the center of the platform, Rebecca happily turned to look at his ancestors, pointing one hand to the large container not far away and the auxiliary equipment group around the container. "The technician just checked it out, and it is in very good condition now~~"

Gao Wen looked at Rebecca who was obviously overly excited, and then looked up at the "experimental unit" not far away. In his sight, a large hemispherical container was quietly placed in the base in the center of the test platform. Around the container were crystal containers of different sizes, connecting pipes and nerve connector groups. At this moment, the cover device of the hemispherical container was not closed. He could clearly see that the container was filled with thin translucent nutrient solution, and there was a huge biological tissue like a brain soaking in the solution.

The brain floated leisurely in the solution, looking a little... enjoyable.

After watching this for a few seconds, Gao Wen couldn't help but mutter: "No matter how many times you read it... the thing that Bell Tira has torn is still so weird..."

"Actually, it's okay. I was shocked when I first saw it, but after seeing it too much, I felt quite adaptable," Rebecca scratched her head and showed a simple and bright smile on her face. "And these servo brains are actually quite interesting. After getting along for a long time, you may even think they are a bit cute - they are all hardworking and sensible guys. Whether it's computing tasks or fitness, they will obediently obediently..."

"I think it's weird that a group of brains acting as computer hosts suddenly run out of their slots to do exercises and exercises..." Gao Wen couldn't help but cover his forehead, "But since you can all accept this style, that's fine."

Rebecca laughed and then turned the topic to a familiar place: "After this wet piece host is debugged, we can start the next step of testing - let it coordinate the operation of those new anti-gravity groups. According to the data obtained by Glen Heavy Industry, the servo brain works dozens or even hundreds of times more efficiently than humans in this regard, and the problem that we have always been troubled will definitely be solved."

"Don't relax in such a hurry," Gao Wen knew that Rebecca was quite reliable in the technical field, so he couldn't help but remind him, "Do a few more simulation tests and start the equipment on a small scale first. The larger the size of things, the more careful you need to operate - your aunt can no longer stand more stimulation."

"Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry," Rebecca immediately shrank his neck when he heard the word "aunt", and then nodded repeatedly, "I know, just like your famous saying during your lifetime, 'Blind self-confidence is the first ladder to destruction' - I have memorized it seriously..."

Gao Wen was surprised when he heard this, and he didn't even bother to pursue the girl's statement "before his life": "Famous quote? When did I say this?"

Rebecca was stunned: "...Hey? Isn't this what you said? This sentence is included in the textbooks as a famous saying that must be memorized..."

Gao Wen: "This is not what I said - I doubt that it was a scholar who had not made up enough space for me to write books."
