Chapter 490 World Engine(1/2)
Facts have proved that Kaka's desire to survive is still very strong, and it will seek death even if it wants to die. However, it has made sufficient preparations before it attempts to die, so that it will not be really hammered to death.
Before Levi could do anything substantial to the refined shipboard AI, several cabins came out of the library building with a click, and slid all the way to Levi in front of him as if they had entered an invisible orbit.
Arranged in order of completeness, there are a broken golden scroll, a star map with a torch-like center, and a tomb that seems to be floating in the void.
At the same time, Kaka's emotional voice suddenly turned into a mechanical mind:
"Every time the cosmic crystal wall travels, it means a large amount of library data is lost. Therefore, the library data that is too old can only have commemorative significance as a monument to civilization, but it has no great reference value for Masta."
"Then these..."
Li Wei, who was a little confused, froze when his eyes fell on the golden scroll that was like light and shadow, and then slowly stretched out his paw. At the moment of contact, the information that popped up in his mind was indeed what he had guessed.
:
"The relic library you are visiting now is the universe numbered ЁБГДЕЖ---Nether's Afterglow.
"The civilization is dead.
“The direct cause of its demise was the destruction of the divine ascension technique by the last Archon Karsus.
Seeing this, Li Wei immediately took a deep breath and asked:
"Why was the cause of destruction the Ascension Technique that was destroyed by Karsus?"
Kaka was silent for a moment and said truthfully:
"This is Karthus's request before his consciousness is annihilated."
Levi fell silent after hearing this, recalling the scenes in the Nese magic ship as if they were real dreams. At that last moment, Levi could completely feel the collapse and despair in Karsus' heart.
Perhaps in his opinion, it was his 'arrogance' and stupidity that personally killed his teacher, his most beloved... the goddess of magic Missriel.
It also caused the crumbling Nether Empire to miss its last chance.
Therefore, he, Karthus, is the gravedigger of Netheril, the executioner who nearly plunged the entire continent of Krel into eternal doom, and he should bear all the blame and eternal infamy.
Perhaps only in this way can he get even a hint of comfort before returning to nothingness.
Levi thought for a long time, raised his head and looked at Kaka and said:
"As an epitaph for the destruction of civilization, I think such a record is unfair and objective.
"I once witnessed the collapse of Nether with my own eyes, and saw every great arcanist turn into ashes in the battle.
"I saw that even though they were falling into the yellow sand from the sky, they still never stopped fighting back.
"They are all heroes who fought against the Phailin demons. Without their efforts and sacrifices to stop the enemy, the Saren spirits would have no chance or time to build the Wall of Saren.
"The humans in the North are able to retain the last fire, and they deserve the greatest credit.
"Karthus has done everything he can. He is dead. I can't rewrite the historical records of the entire Coril continent, nor can I change the infamy of him by future generations.
"But at least here, in this library archive established by you time and space observers, let's leave a trace of his name."
When Kaka heard this, countless star-like data streams seemed to flow through his eyes, he nodded and said:
"Your suggestions and observation data have been accepted! The Holy Temple Library data is being approved...
"In view of the fact that the civilization destruction evaluation results are unfair, they have been revised again. Please check."
Then the library data in front of Li Wei changed.
"The direct cause of its demise - this civilization was destroyed by the general attack of the Void Derivative Phaelin Demon Kui, which bought precious time for the construction of the Wall of Saron.
"I would like to express my high respect to the civilization fighting on the front line of the enemy of the void!"
Seeing these two lines of words, Li Wei's eyes were a little dazed. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then he saw the back:
"Civilization database retention rate - 14.3264%."
One-seventh of the Nether magic technology legacy...
As Levi clicked on the data tree belonging to Netheril, he saw a tree diagram that was decadent but still rooted in the 'earth'.
The first is the five cornerstones summarized by the first generation of Netherese, namely:
[Introduction to Arcana], [Magic Creation], [Higher Creation], [Plane Mechanism], [Secret Discussion].
Among them, [Introduction to Arcane Magic] basically summarizes the basic principles of arcane spellcasting today, including sleight of hand, spell composition and many magic schools. These schools are the basis for establishing the way of using magic. In the end, the Netherese chose to merge them into three categories.
, that is, creation, mind and transformation.
According to the research of some scholars, most of Nether's introduction to arcane magic has been lost, but some of the theoretical foundations that have been circulated still have a profound impact on the basis of magic used by the intelligent races developed in the Corel continent, and may even be the basis of the eight major magic factions.
originator.
Certain races, such as elves, brought their unique magic with them when they migrated to the world of Koriel, but it is still questionable whether their way of using magic was significantly affected by the outline of arcane magic summarized in the Nether scrolls.
In [Magic Creation], the creation of magic items and the wide range of possibilities for constructing other non-basic items are detailed, including magic items that can become part of the creator, that is, intelligence created for a special purpose.
Magic items.
[Advanced Creation] details the creation of magical constructs, such as colossi. At the same time, they also guide the creation of 'living objects', including microscopic eyes that function like a microscope, and can observe the microscopic world at the level of bloodline evolution.
In addition, there are magical intelligent objects, which are objects that can think for themselves and have the ability to perform certain actions. This is almost artificial intelligence in the magical world.
Finally, this section details the nature of the countermagic cast by creatures such as beholders, and the methods used to create and destroy areas of dead magic.
In the volume "Plane Mechanism", the relationship between different planes of existence and the operation of magic on them are explained, as well as the process of creating small planes.
It is worth mentioning that most of this volume is the result of the lifelong research of Shado, Netheril's top plane science expert.
If there had not been the crisis of the phaerinn demons, the Netherese would have probably used this as a cornerstone to start a magnificent era of plane colonial wars.
In the last volume [Secret Discussion], it is...the knowledge and principles of artifact creation.
A few great arcanists tried it, and eventually created the Crown of Horns and the Warlock King's Scepter, which are still considered 'artifacts' to this day.
On top of this, there are many illuminated technical fields:
For example, Levi once obtained the Connor Stone in the Nether Magic Ship.
Unlike disposable magic scrolls, Connor's Stone can directly store and record a spell model, as long as it continues to be charged.
So in theory, as long as you have an infinite number of Connor's Stones, even ordinary people can be transformed into spell turrets to some extent.
However, the production of its raw material, Childarin gems, was extremely limited even in the era of Nether's discovery.
In addition, there are many methods for making magical creations similar to Connor's Stone, such as various golems.
But what makes Levi excited and a little regretful is that the magic pipeline construction technology is recorded in the library, but the Myser energy core that allows Nether to create floating cities is in a bleak gray.
Because it has lost a lot of complex front-end technology, such as the port technology that needs to be connected to the invisible magic network, the harmonic suppressor that needs to reconcile the crazy raw energy, etc.
Regardless of Levi's belief, with the basic Nether magic technology, at least the development and application of the Myser energy core will not be like the "two-way foil" of the singer civilization, which is out of reach.
After Levi read through all the information belonging to the Nether civilization, he reluctantly moved out of consciousness and rubbed his aching head.
Even with his current knowledge reserve and thinking speed, he still feels a little inadequate when looking at these professional things.
"Let's leave these professional things to Ige and the others."
With this thought in mind, Levi solemnly put aside the Nether library, and then hesitantly clicked on the star map with a torch-like center.
"The library you are visiting now is the universe numbered ΞΠΣΥΦΨ—Human Terra Civilization.
"This civilization has a small probability of surviving."
Levi's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Kaka:
"Existing? Isn't this the place where the relic library is stored?"
Kaka replied: "The observation log has been destroyed, but according to the storage records, this entry is of a escrow nature.
It paused and then continued: "According to relevant similar records, most of these managed civilizations are either on the verge of collapse and destruction, or they have decided to make a desperate move. Survival and destruction are on the thin line."
Levi suddenly understood that he had received a lot of information from Kaka about the Warhammer Universe.
From the longest dream of contact with the fraudster, I had a glimpse of the dark and desperate world.
After the War in Heaven, with the birth of the ‘evil gods’ in subspace, the material foundation of that world began to collapse and tilt, deflecting towards the dualistic world where matter and spirit were separated, and it was... beyond redemption...
In such a world, the rise of the material race is like a wave. Without the protection of powerful spiritual energy, the evil gods can easily harvest the material race. No race can unify the galaxy and pose a threat to the evil gods.
For example, mankind started a golden age without relying on the spiritual protection of the emperor, and the possibility of unifying the galaxy appeared. So the evil god sent demons to start the Iron Man rebellion. The golden age ended, the human empire fell apart, and the technology tree was lost.
And the technology tree of the human Terra Empire in Levi's hands is an existence that has already lost most of it.
However, many technologies in different universes are inherently incompatible, so Levi looked up the technical entries of that human world with the idea of referring to the chainsword.
The first project aroused Li Wei's strong interest.
Space Marine Power Armor Designs!
As early as forty-six years ago, Levi, who had obtained the 21 operations of the Ultramarines and the blueprints for making chain swords, happily imitated the human emperor next door and created batches of Dragon Knights and twenty Ultramarines.
, even the military system and many training plans are directly copied from the Astartes Codex written by Robert Guilliman.
However, the casualties suffered in the Lunar Sea War and the Siege of Scandinavia in the north still made Li Wei clearly realize that their offensive power may have overflowed in the city-state battles on the mainland, but their protective capabilities are still not enough!
Even a full-body plate armor armed to the hilt may be able to defend against swords and arrows, but it cannot defend against cannonballs falling from the sky, nor against the endless variety of magic.
You can start from other aspects, such as various protective magic equipment... Even with Zelandia's current productivity, the cost is still too high.
To be continued...
