Blue Star

The roof of the hospital was easier to walk than imagined. Apart from a dozen neatly parked aircraft, there were only some broken stones and old agglomerated dust.

These bronze-colored aircraft are similar to those seen on the way, but the overall preservation is more complete.Although the huge airbag on the top was suffocated, the flying rotating leaf fan did not show any signs of damage, and the buckle parts between the machines were not rusted.

Gu Li carefully disassembled the two units, cleaned off the sticky dirt on the parts, and stuffed the items into the supply bag.

According to the description on Blue Star's blueprint, the first part that may be aging should be the part of the cloud maker.If the drawings are correct, they can indeed be replaced with parts from the aircraft.

Mimir climbed onto the seat of the aircraft and removed dozens of usable screws from the bottom of the stool.He threw the loose seat out of the machine, leaned out half of his body and sighed to Gu Li who was squatting under the machine.

"It would be great if the old man's talent is not broken. If the parts that look bad are directly replaced with crystal ore, it will definitely be more effective than we are dismantling the parts now."

Gu Li knocked on the empty fuel tank of the aircraft, and twisted the long screw with a tool.

Mimir said again: "Is it not enough for us to repair only one Bluestar? The hospital is so far away, even if it is repaired, it may not be able to take care of the town we live in."

Gu Li exhaled, stood up and said, "The blue star above the hospital is the main engine of all the temperature controllers. According to the structure shown on the blueprint, if the main engine resumes operation, it can provide a defense system for the remaining damaged machines."

Mimir jumped off the aircraft with half of the backpack parts on his back, worried: "Isn't that the same as hanging yourself?"

The host starts the defense system, which means that other damaged machines must be turned forcibly.If this is the case, then even if it is repaired, the time to maintain the magnetic field stability will not be too long.And when it is damaged again, it is not as simple as a few parts being damaged, but the entire system is paralyzed.

Gu Li didn't answer, but just speeded up the work in hand.

Blue Star was damaged more and more frequently, and he had to reactivate the mainframe before all the machines failed.The blue star over the town was built about 20 years later than the one over the hospital.If the aging parts of the main engine can be replaced, at least in a short period of time, the absolute safety of the town can be guaranteed.

Gu Li couldn't help sighing as the disassembled aircraft tilted to pieces.

Although many machines near the hospital are well preserved due to the influence of the magnetic field, there are still too few things that can be used.After several hours, only four aircraft were dismantled.

He shook the heavy material bag, and said to the tired Mimir: "Take off so much for now, let's go up and check the machine, if there is not enough, we will go down and continue to disassemble."

Mimir nodded, loaded the lighting crystal ore into the crossbow gun, and fired a shot at the melting column in the center of the Zodiac Hospital.

The crystal ore with impact was instantly embedded in the wall of the melting column more than ten meters high. Under the influence of Gu Li's magnetic field, the column was illuminated brightly from top to bottom.

"There is actually a ladder on the melting pillar!?" Mimir exclaimed, "Wouldn't it be possible to climb directly to the place where the old patriarchs entered?"

The hospital is built close to the melting column, and where a large amount of gravel is piled up on the roof, there is a row of stainless steel handles that humans can climb.

After Gu Li approached, he tried to pull it hard twice, but it was unexpectedly firm.

In Elder's memory fragment, the channel for transporting patients was at the top of the Goddess Pillar.But then the entrance was blocked, and to prevent anyone from going out, the upper half of the melting column was also destroyed.

The destruction happened after the migration of people, so the goddess column drawn on the drawing looks complete.

"I can't reach it, the part above the blue star is broken. Even if I can reach it, I can't get out. The thing that blocks the entrance is harder to dig than the mine wall."

Gu Li bound him and Mimir's waist and abdomen with rock climbing ropes, and fastened the handles with safety buckles every time they climbed a section.

When he climbed to a height of 50 meters from the roof of the hospital, the handle inlaid with molten pillars finally showed signs of aging.Far away from the hospital, the humidity of the environment gradually became faulty, and even the color of the surface of the melting column changed from light gray to dark gray, and it was covered with a lot of mutated slime fungi.

The ring on his right hand turned, and he placed his gloved palm on the surface of the column.The magnetic field radiated from the palm formed a wave, which quickly drained the slime mold and destroyed all the fungi covering the surface of the melting column.

The range of the controlled magnetic field is not small, extending to the back of the sky, you can hear the piercing climbing sounds of many creatures escaping.

Mimir couldn't help feeling his scalp go numb, and he felt that the scene behind the clouds was definitely not much better than the way they came from.

He said in fear: "Elder Gu Li, the surrounding fog has become thicker, can we climb slower?"

Climbing up to a height of 50 meters in one breath, even if he didn't look down, he still felt weak in his calves.

Gu Li pulled the bow and crossbow gun, and fired another shot at the melting column in the sky to illuminate the crystal mine.

The surrounding man-made clouds are suppressed very low. Although the illumination range of the crystal mine is expanded with the help of the magnetic field, the visible distance is still limited.

The high humidity in the artificial cloud makes the climbable handle slippery.His dry magnetic field can't keep high frequency uninterrupted for a long time, otherwise, even if he doesn't backlash himself, his fellow Mimir will have more or less stress response.

There are still a lot of ladders to climb from the height of Blue Star. If you follow this speed, you may not be able to reach it in another two hours.

He handed the water bottle to Mimir, "Rest for 5 minutes, but we have to speed up."

Mimir put his arm into the handle to maintain his balance, took the water bottle and drank most of it in one go.Put the lid on, waved away the dense fog in front of you, and said tiredly: "I used to look at the blue star from the town, and I didn't think it was so high. Now I realized that this distance is so high that it can kill people. Anyway, the ancestors were also Working at heights, why don’t you know how many more lifts to install on the Goddess Column.”

"The ancestors prefer to use aircraft." Gu Li said.

Mimir had no choice but to wait until he was almost rested and resigned to his fate to continue climbing.

After two and a half hours, Gu Li, who led the way, finally saw the corner of Lanxing's machine in the thick fog.

Although he was ready for the world to be a forgery, he still couldn't help being disappointed after seeing the machine.

The blue star is real, the world depicted in the drawings is real, and everything written in Elder's letter is also true.

Clinging to the machine support on the melting column with both hands, he jumped onto the standable platform along with the gradually thinning artificial cloud.

The size of Blue Star is more spectacular than expected, and with the brackets extending all around, a machine is almost half the size of a basketball court.

However, the monsters did not use the Blue Star as a lair. Except for some small creatures that died under the influence of his dry magnetic field, it was generally safe.

In addition, the exit of the artificial cloud is downward.When people stand on the machine and look down, the sky is like the sea that is close at hand.If it weren't for the lack of light source range, the field of view on the machine should become very wide.

Mimir struggled to climb onto the machine, lying flat on the platform with sore muscles, panting.After more than two hours of rock climbing, he felt that he might die in the next second.

"I can't do it anymore, I'm too tired..."

Gu Li placed lighting crystals around the machine, and then stood in the center, driving the magnetic field to maximize the essence of all the crystals.

The dark environment was suddenly illuminated.Without the obstruction of clouds and mist, the hazy light yellow beams spread out to [-] meters with the magnetic field, and even the turbulent sea of ​​clouds was coated with a layer of light that resembled sunset.

There are no less than [-] machines surrounding the Goddess Pillar. With the Goddess Pillar as the center, a circle of new blue stars will appear every ten meters apart.The layout of these machines is like a spider web after the rain, with layers expanding and closely connected.

There are a large number of water pipes inside the bracket, which go down the wall and go deep into the ground, pumping ground water through the machine to form the climate.These waters follow the originally programmed system, sometimes raining and sometimes fogging, and then forming artificial snow in certain seasons, thus forging a simulated sky.

It is no wonder that the rainwater is salty, and the water source of the machine was changed to the sea after the Elder patriarch migrated.This can explain why there are sea fish in the fourth Goddess Pillar.

As for the alternation of day and night in the mine island, it was originally because of the light panels at the bottom of these machines.The magnetization equipment uses the magnetic field in the mine island itself to stimulate the machine to generate radiation through the light panel, simulating the illumination of the sun and the moon.

But now, the light panels at the bottom of the machine are seriously aging, and most of them have been damaged.The light board was pitch black, scorched and deformed. The explosion that looked like thunder and lightning was heard earlier, which originated from this.

Gu Li checked the nearest Bluestars, and then said: "We have to find a way to pry open the top shell and enter the interior to repair the machine. If we can't guarantee that all the machines can run after activation, then disassemble the seriously damaged ones. It's used to make up for the host."

He didn't hear Mimir's response, so he straightened up and called out to the child sitting on the ground with his head up, "Mimir."

Mimir's face was ugly, and when he heard the sound, he turned his head and pointed upward tremblingly.

Gu Li looked up.

In the illuminated sky above, the cave roof, which was originally uneven and mostly ice-like, was wriggling in darkness at this moment.Tens of thousands of mutated bats hang upside down on the top, dense enough to cover the original appearance of the cave roof.

He originally thought that the surroundings of Blue Star would become a lair of monsters, but in fact, the entire mine island was a lair.

The size of these bats is much larger than what was first seen in the town, and each one is far more than 30 meters long. If they attack the town in groups, just thinking about it will make you feel cold.

But now, these giant bats gathered and stirred up, spreading all over the blue star in piles, staring at his and Mimir's every move.

He slowed down his breathing and motioned to Mimir to keep quiet.

Put away the magnetic field around the body, weaken the mine light, and slowly stuff the lighting crystal mines back into the bag one after another, leaving only one ring light beam to guide Mimir dimly.

Mi Mi MiEr's heart was beating fast, and he pulled the climbing rope with his hand, and carefully approached Gu Li's position.

It wasn't until we walked into Gu Li's shrinking defensive magnetic field that we dared to say: "What should we do now? We can't see anything, and it will be over if we step on the air and fall."

Gu Li strengthened the defensive magnetic field, frowned and said, "I'll cover you, quickly remove an entrance from the machine."
