The chaotic wind blew from the distant phantom land, rolling up the fine white sand, and stirring up a piece of smoke between the collapsed altar and the throne. The illusion of countless ancient things seemed to be rising and falling in the smoke and dust, but it disappeared when the next wind and sand came. The goddess on the throne calmly and long watched the occasionally illusions in the sand. After a long time, the majesty, but also seemed to be sentimental, sounded between heaven and earth: "Yes, great adventurers, we have been in this place for too long, and many things have become blurred, including what we once valued and cared for... are all dissipated like dust in the wind."

Wilder's voice seemed quite surprised: "...Madam, are you also saddened by the passage of time and things?"

"God is also human, God is the most human, Mr. Adventurer," Ms. Ye's voice seemed to have a little smile. "Those who have lost their humanity have either fallen in madness or will sooner or later come to an end."

"…Where is the 'thing' that lingered around your throne?" asked the book on the stone pillar, "Is He human, too?"

This time, the voice on the throne was silent for a long time, and it was not until the next gust of wind and sand rose that a sound came from the throne: "Of course He also has His humanity, and in a sense, His humanity is pure and untainted."

"...Is that right? I thought that thing didn't even have the ability to think," the great adventurer's voice sounded surprised, "So he is still human..."

"Ah, you're right, the great adventurer, He really doesn't even have the ability to think..." The towering figure on the throne sighed, and with the sound of words, He slowly stood up, and at some point a scepter made of black and white appeared in his hand. She looked at the dark area at the end of the desert, which seemed to be a city silhouette, and walked down the altar. "A newborn baby has no ability to think, but the purest humanity in the world is just before the baby's first cry..."

The wind whistled in the desert. In the distant black and white silhouettes, an indescribable mass of terrifying mass formed by countless hypertrophic limbs and mutant flesh was growing out of the darkness. It was floating above the city like a huge sun formed by flesh and blood, and began to slowly float towards the direction of the throne altar. There were harsh sounds from the mass of flesh and blood, as if countless screams and a large number of low murmurs were mixed together. Where its flesh and blood tentacles spread, the gray-white desert was quickly stained with a layer of crazy black and red stains, and the pure sand and dust instantly turned into dirty mud clumps.

But the next second, invisible power spread out from the direction of the throne, and the pollution at the edge of the desert was instantly stopped. The towering figures that stood up from the throne walked towards the distance. The gray-white cracks that spread and wandered on His dress flowed like water and condensed at the top of the scepter in His hand, as if the light and shadow that dominated the entire world.

"The 'baby' is about to cry again. He needs a little 'care' from his elders," a majestic and lazy female voice sounded between heaven and earth. "Mr. Adventurer, remember to focus on the star map, don't listen, and see the movements coming from the 'border'."

"Ah, this is definitely the most terrifying baby in the world... and the most terrifying domestic violence scene," the ancient book on the stone pillar sighed, "Okay, I understand, be careful."

...

After some effort, the harsh alarm sounds around finally stopped, but the red warning lights in various parts of the room were still flashing. Gao Wen stood in front of the large terminal device at the end of the main control room, looking at the system interface that was completely out of control with an unusually serious expression, and maintained a motionless posture for a long time.

It was not until a familiar sound of footsteps that he turned his neck slightly and turned slightly to the direction where the sound came: "I knew you would sneak over in the end."

"I am a thief. Wouldn't it be contrary to my professional spirit if I can keep my hands and feet honest?" Amber's carefree voice rang behind Gao Wen, and there was no tension at all. "You have been staring at this thing for so long? Are you still going to see the Sentinel's weakness from here?"

Gao Wen's gaze returned to the large hemispherical terminal in front of him. He stared at the holographic image projected on it, and after a few seconds, he slowly said: "I'm looking for the weakness of this ship."

"The weakness of this ship?" Amber raised his eyebrows and stepped to Gao Wen. He followed the other party to stare at the large terminal in front of him for a long time, but she couldn't understand a symbol at all. "You mean the weakness of this ship is this main control room? This sounds quite reasonable. After all, this is its control center... But did you say that this main control room actually has nothing to do with the operation of the spacecraft?"

"This is the problem," Gao Wen said. "The control center should theoretically be the weakness of the spacecraft. However, this ship is no longer just a 'a machine'. It continues to cruise in a state of out-of-control for more than a thousand years. Its operation has nothing to do with these crashed control terminals... I was actually trying to find a way to repair the system from these terminals and take over the control authority of the spacecraft. You know, if we can control this ship, even if we only control it partially, it will bring us unimaginable benefits, but I failed."

"It's normal to fail," Amber was stunned for a moment, but soon said with a smile, "This is something left by the setter, and it was corrupted by the tide again - no matter which of these two things is difficult to deal with. In this world, even gods cannot do omniscience and omnipotence, so there will definitely be things you can't handle."

"No, failure itself is nothing. The biggest problem is... this." Gao Wen shook his head, then stepped forward to a small terminal device nearby. He kicked it up, kicking the device with severe corrosion marks on the surface and a bit damaged shell directly out a big hole. Then he reached into the hole and pulled it out of a large piece of metal plate from the machine shell with a casual pull.

"Hey! This is ancient..." Amber subconsciously exclaimed when he saw Gao Wen's "violent dismantling" scene, but then her eyes fell into the big hole that Gao Wen dismantled. Through the torn metal plate, the situation inside the equipment appeared in front of her, making her hold her in the bronchial after the second half of her words.

The hole was almost empty. Apart from a pile of crystal structures that had obviously been distorted and deformed, as if they had melted, this thing was simply an empty shell that had been "empty".

However, just above such an empty shell device, the red warning lights representing system failure and a bunch of chaotic holographic images are still flashing.

"Did you see it? This empty shell is still operating - although it is a state of collapse in the system, in fact it shouldn't even emit a ray of light," Gao Wen said with a serious expression. "Before, Daniel said that this ship was a 'wielding zombie' who was still alive after being cut off, but the actual situation is probably even more strange and terrifying than that... There is a certain force to maintain everything here. The various components of this ship are not just 'only running after leaving the system'. The mechanism behind them is beyond our understanding and does not even conform to our understanding of the material world... I don't know how many of the ship are in this state. I even suspect that the essence of the entire ship has been 'empty'."

Amber stared at the strange and terrifying scene in front of him in a daze, and suddenly shook his neck and said, "This...so we can't use any way to 'take over' this ship, right? Just what 'authority' you said..."

"Yes, we cannot take over its 'control authority', because the ship has completely alienated into something...unnamed. It just looks like it still maintains its former appearance, but its inner self is already more disturbing than the tower of the tide. To be honest, even if I give me a chance to take over this ship, I don't want to touch it... because this is definitely a trap and will tempt us to no avail," Gao Wen said with a serious expression that is almost a bit gloomy. "Similarly, we'd better not try to learn any technology from this ship... Even if there is still some knowledge that can be understood in this ship, and that knowledge must be 'toxic'."

Amber listened with a horror and swallowed hard: "So you just tried to find the weakness of this ship, but actually wanted to..."

"I was wondering, what can we do to destroy it," Gao Wen said seriously. In front of Amber, he did not hide his thoughts or concerns. "We can't deal with that 'home port', but the home port itself does not seem to have the ability to take the initiative, but the spaceship in front of us...it makes me feel threatened."

"Threat...this thing is indeed a bit weird," Amber murmured in a low voice, "but then again, hasn't the 'Sentinel' already run away? No matter how weird the home port and spacecraft it left behind were, it was just a dead thing running according to the program..."

"Has the sentry really cut off contact with the home port and the spacecraft?" Gao Wen interrupted Amber, "Is it really just trying to break free from the commands and tasks bound to itself before running out of the deep sea? Perhaps... its 'removement' is just a temporary means, to accomplish something else, or perhaps the 'arrangement' left behind by this spacecraft and that home port remained in it. One day in the future, these things will become weapons aimed at us."

Amber shrank his neck and looked at the ancient equipment around him that emitted red light, as if he felt a sense of tension as if he was stabbed by a needle, as if behind the flashing red light were countless pairs of cold and malicious eyes, staring at her, the "fat meat" that had fallen into the mouth of the predator. This feeling reminded her again, making her unable to help but think of the chill she had in the corridor of the spaceship before, which was staring at by cold eyes and malicious minds.

"Then do you have a way?" She couldn't help rubbing her arms that were about to have goose bumps, and looked at Gao Wen with anticipation, "You usually have the best way..."

"I'm still thinking, and I'm not sure what my ideas will do," Gao Wen said with a serious expression. "The technology used by this ship is extremely advanced. Its armor and shields may be able to resist any weapon that can be made by mortal civilizations today. If it is destroyed from the inside... I don't know where to start. Look around, these control terminals have been destroyed more than a thousand years ago, which is meaningless at all. And there is a more important point..."

"What's more important?" Amber asked subconsciously.

"This ship may fight back," Gao Wen shook his head. "It has a weapon system, with protection inside and outside, and these things are likely to be running automatically. We may not be able to afford to anger this ancient weapon until we thoroughly understand the details of the ship."

Speaking of this, he let out a light breath, and said softly with a hint of thought in his expression: "So, I'm considering finding another way..."

The information I received at Sentinel Home Port and the experiences along the way made everyone feel a little nervous, and this tension even continued the entire journey.

But in the end, the return trip ended without any danger.

A hazy light appeared in the depths of the chaotic darkness outside the spaceship shield. In the light, you could vaguely see the sand and clouds falling from endless high places. After seeing the familiar scene, Gao Wen, who had returned to the deck, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Melita got up from the resting place, moving her huge wings and a scale-covered tail. Others who had been resting for a long time also stood up one after another, looking at the border of the God of War Kingdom, which was gradually showing a clear outline. Even Daniel, who had always had a stern face, had a gloomy temperament and rarely communicated with others, couldn't help but breathe, and muttered in a low voice: "I'm finally back..."

"Yes, I'm finally back," Mary muttered softly when she heard the instructor speak, "I'm so nervous along the way..."

Daniel turned his head slightly and looked at his female apprentice, and snorted in his nose: "Is this relaxed? This journey is an adventure that ordinary mages dare not imagine in their entire life. You can't get nothing - go back and write a summary of three thousand words and hand it over next Monday."

Mary's expression suddenly froze: "...ah, yes, the mentor..."

Gao Wen heard the communication between Mary and Daniel, which made him unable to help but remember some scenes deep in his memory in his previous life. A faint smile floated on his face, causing his serious and depressed aura along the way to dissolve a lot.

At the same time, after a moment of slowing down and calibrating the course, the spacecraft finally returned to the place where everyone set off at the beginning.

The border of the God of War Kingdom surrounded by a sea of ​​dim sand and dust, the flag of the alliance has been hung on the outer edge of the broken city. Ms. Windsor Mapel, the highest technical official of Tifeng, and the commander of the White Knight, and the senior combat monk Solid Knights led their respective teams to stand in a "settled area" near the border, and have been waiting here for a long time.

Among them, there was the White Dragon Noreta who was leading two young dragons.

When the spacecraft returned, it was not just the explorers on the ship who breathed a sigh of relief.

As the spacecraft reached the closest point to the Kingdom of God in the sea of ​​clouds, the figure of the blue dragon jumped up from the edge of the deck, carrying the exploration team that set out two days ago and the large number of "samples" they brought back. Finally, it returned to the land where the God of War God was constantly disintegrating, but it seemed particularly stable at this moment.

This time, Amber was the first to jump off Melita's back.
