Chapter 79 Core Buildings

"Yeah?" Penis twisted his neck again and turned his gaze to the small device on the side of his shoulder: "Where have you seen us?"

"It's not the time to tell you." Eva said, "Maybe I will explain it in detail to you later."

"Maybe?" Penis repeated: "It's just maybe? But I probably guessed where you saw us, you haven't seen Freya."

"Now we are passing the gate of the 14th District." Eva said in a mechanized voice: "The 14th District is the microbial research area. In 6854, scholars discovered that there was an extremely tiny energy creature in the Yara world. This creature is often as large as the elements that make up matter, and cannot be observed with the naked eye. It can only be distinguished by some amplification instruments. Because it is energy creatures and is too small, they will hardly have any impact on the body. However, there are exceptions. When this energy creature is too large or too concentrated, it will have an impact on the physical body. For example, Seerchi syndrome is a typical example. If the energy creature is larger, it can even directly affect the present world or even cause large-scale disasters."

"Okay okay, I won't ask." Panis said helplessly: "I really don't know how you developed this habit."

Catherine patted Panis on the back as a comforting moment before asking to his shoulder: "Ava, when we first came in, we had an identity authentication, and that authentication had clearly identified us as unknown creatures. But we still passed it inexplicably. I wonder, what would happen if we failed to pass the authentication?"

"They will be expelled." Eva replied: "Individuals who have not passed the certification will be returned to their original position. If the individual who should be expelled has acts of violence, they will be forcibly expelled. As for where they will be expelled, it is not certain, and they may be expelled into the void. If the individual is too strong and cannot be expelled, they will be regarded as an invader and will be attacked by the central defense measures at full strength."

"So, we passed the verification for no reason. Did you control it?" Catherine asked, "The verification voice suddenly changed its attitude. You probably interfered."

"Yes. I found that it was you who came in, so I interfered." Ava admitted, "I like you."

"Are you subject to some restrictions? So many things cannot be explained clearly to us now?" Catherine asked softly, "For example, permission settings?"

"Yes, but don't continue to guess." Eva lost the calmness in her voice again. She said anxiously: "It's time to explain, I will definitely tell you."

"Okay, then we won't ask." After exchanging a wink with Pannis, Catherine actually agreed, as if she was not worried at all that Eva's concealment would bring unnecessary dangers, and nodded, "Then I'll leave it to you. I know there must be problems here, and I also know that these problems may cause trouble, but from your previous behavior, I believe you are still on our side, and I hope you won't let us down."

"I'll try to do it." Ava's voice fell: "Try not to disappoint you."

Jingneng's car once again fell into a strange silence. Whether it was Eva or the five members of the adventure group, they were silently thinking about their own thoughts. Only Jingneng's car was still driving silently on the smooth road. Goblin's crystal car was much better than the crystal locomotives that people imitated based on Goblin technology. Even though the body weight is much heavier than the crystal locomotives, it is still driving smoothly and quickly, but I don't know if the energy consumption is the same. Moreover, when I was in the car, I could not hear the sound of the wind when driving quickly outside. The car was extremely quiet.

After driving for a while, Lina suddenly remembered something, exclaimed softly, and asked Eva: "Actually you know the ending of the goblins, yes, I heard you mentioned the great disaster, which refers to the demise of the goblins."

"Yes, I know." Eva replied, "and witnessed the process of the catastrophe."

"But, I've been to a ruin of a goblin city before." Lina thought of the clockwork city found deep in the sewer of the Innocence City: "The city there is full of goblin corpses that died suddenly. Obviously, the catastrophe you mentioned happened suddenly. But here, I didn't see any remains. Logically speaking, there are so many researchers here, and at least tens of thousands of corpses, but the entire city, including the square and the residential area on the other side, has no body."

"The remains have been cleaned up according to the preset instructions." Eva replied: "All bodies are cremated and the ashes are transported to various parts of Mount Phellias. This is the preset plan for the research center when a large-scale death occurs. I have completed the implementation shortly after the disaster and controlled the puppets in the center."

"That is, even if we don't come, you can control the puppet to perform some actions?" Lina asked in confusion: "Then why don't you go to those areas that don't respond to check what's going on?"

"I can't do it." Eva explained: "I control the puppets by using the crystal energy network to control it. If a node of the crystal energy network loses its response, then all areas under this node will be out of my control, just like the Ninth Laboratory we just saw. If I maintain my current state, I can indeed observe the internal situation through other external devices, and the signal can also be transmitted back to me, but I cannot operate any device within the coverage range through the node, including the external devices I originally controlled. If you go to the 11th zone, you can see that the ground is already full of puppets that I tried to enter the 11th zone, but I lose the response after entering."

"The same goes for emergency shelter?" Panis asked.

"It's different there. Even if the crystal network is intact, I can't control it, or even enter it actively. However, if you carry the puppet I control now, it will not affect it." Eva replied: "In general, most areas of the research center are still under control, and only a small part of them have lost control."

"Swish", during the conversation, the Jingneng Car had already reached the depths of the research center, silently stopped at the entrance of a building that was very inconspicuous compared to the surrounding buildings. Eva reminded: "Get out of the car, this is the most core building in the center. All the core control system equipment is stored here, including the emergency shelter, and it is also underground here. According to the strength of defense, even if it is the energy attack of the gods, it will take 30 minutes for several gods to join forces to break the defense system here. It is considered the safest place on the Yara Continent. No, this place no longer belongs to the Yara Continent, but it is still the safest place in the world."

"Can I try it?" Panis asked with a strange look: "Test the defense strength here."

"Now that's OK, I've temporarily turned off the counterattack system here." Eva replied, "But how do you want to test it?"

"That's it." Panis suddenly drew his sword, and a one-meter-wide vacuum slash shot out from the arc of the sword blade. The moment the vacuum slash touched the metal building, the energy contained was absorbed in an instant, and its power was reduced to less than one-tenth, leaving no trace on the wall. Panis was stunned for a moment, swinging the sword forward and stabbing directly. The sharp blade formed by the fighting energy stabbed directly on the wall. Unexpectedly, the penetrating attack carried a large part of the energy carried by the penetrating attack was also absorbed. Panis did not attack again and retracted the one-handed sword and said with interest: "Interesting, Vivian, this way of absorbing energy shocks to strengthen itself, I remember you have a similar combat method."

"Yeah, the idea is relatively close." Vivian nodded and said, "I didn't expect that the goblins have already applied it to practice."

"But there is still an upper limit for this kind of absorption." Panis asked Eva: "Once the accumulated absorption exceeds the upper limit, the defense system will collapse, and this kind of defense cannot defend the inherent spiritual realm of the demigod."

"Yes, the inherent spiritual realm appeared in the Third Age as you said, and it is not within the scope of consideration. I cannot understand the significance of the inherent spiritual realm." Ava admitted directly: "But excluding the inherent spiritual realm, even if the three-eyed tribe's strongest people come here, it will take a certain amount of time to break through."

"It is indeed a very effective defense measure." Panis nodded and said, "It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the safest place in the Yara world. However, why do goblins build such strong defense? They don't have any particularly powerful enemies, are they using the Three-Eyed Clan as their imaginary enemy? But there should be three-Eyed Clans participating here. Okay, you don't need to answer. I know you are going to introduce the equipment around you again, so you should save some energy."

"Well, this cannot be answered." I don't know if it's an illusion, but there seems to be a bit more cheerful feeling in the straight voice of Eva's mechanical version, as if she was amused by Panis, and did not use a method of ignorance to deal with it: "You will know, but it's not now."

"Seriously, I smelled the scent of trouble and got closer and closer." Panis sighed and said, "If possible, I really want to know how big the trouble is, how dangerous it is, if it is too dangerous..."

"You don't have to think about it." Catherine looked at Panis squintingly and said, "Do you want to leave us alone and face danger? Are you treating us as a burden? Don't forget that in the deep sea, without our assistance, you may not be able to complete the task by yourself. Besides, if you have trouble, we will run away. Who do you think we are?"

"Sorry, I was wrong." Panis said with a wry smile: "Then let's face it together, Ava, can you answer? How dangerous is it to be a problem?"

"Don't worry, there will be no life danger." Ava's voice sounded bitter: "My logic judged, at least the five of you will not be no life danger."
