Chapter 390Chapter 393 Can come in and go out

Dagon received a letter from Shiloai, this It was the first time he had received news from outside since he entered prison. Shiroai inquired about him in the letter, encouraging him to persevere, and she was also trying to convince the Spirit King to release Dagon.

It goes without saying that Dagon knew that Shiroai would definitely do it. Dagon held the parchment in both hands and read it carefully, reading between the lines an important message.

First of all, he had been in prison for nine months, which was shorter than he expected, and he thought he had been in for more than a year. Dagon has been documenting the delivery of meals by the elves, and now it seems that the elves will deliver meals once a day and a half, instead of the two to three days he had expected. After calculating the amount of food, he seems to be eating a bit too much, which means that he should be able to increase the amount of exercise and grind more bricks.

In addition, what the spirit wants is the complete theory of the burst array, and the spirit king "guarantees" that Dagon can get out of prison after handing over the theory. Shirouai implied that this was fart, and the Spirit King's guarantee could not be trusted. She thought that Dagon's surrender of the theory would amount to death.

There is bad news for Dagon in the letter, that is, the Mage Association "has solved" the problem of bursting the array, the construction of the flying continent has begun, and the prestige of the Spirit King is increasing day by day. As the publisher of the blasting array technology, Xi Luoai has now parted ways with the Mage Association, and she has always believed that the Mage Association has no ability to solve the hidden dangers inside. The association was very confident and invited Hiloai to visit their new array. Hiloai didn't know whether to agree or not, so he came to ask Dagon's opinion.

Dagon thought about it carefully. To solve the problem of bursting the array really requires some mathematical knowledge other than the "Algebra" series of books. The association should not be able to study it so quickly. He thought about it for a while, and in his reply, said to Shiroai: If you want to see it, just watch it, and the elves can also improve. If someone can really benefit from "Algebra" and develop new methods and theories, as long as it can benefit the world, that's fine too.

It's not that Dagon is open-minded, it's that Dagon doesn't trust the Mages Society to solve the problem at all. He has not dealt with the association a few times, but not once without a problem. The falling Flying Sky City left a deep impression on him. Seeking instant benefit, reckless and irresponsible, and deceiving others, these are not good words, but the Mage Association has done it.

From the elf's point of view, the theory of bursting array was published by Shiroai, and after seeing it, the Mage Association secretly used it on the core of the flying city, without even telling Shiroai. Later, in Xia Lin City's research, although Shiroai was made Chief-In-Charge, he drove away all non-elf researchers in the middle. When Xiluoai encountered a problem, she was more responsible and came back to Professor Dongdong to solve it. From these circumstances, it can be imagined how many problems may exist in Xia Lin City's flying continent project.

"The Mage Association has at most figured out the plan that Shiroai asked Professor Dongdong to solve and then came up with." Dagon made such a judgment. By consuming the energy of the extra burst and reducing its impact on the entire array system, this solution is not to say no, but it is essentially a headache and a foot pain, and does not solve the fundamental problem.

The flying city that uses the blasting array will fall, and the flying continent that uses the blasting array will fall, and the people above will die and still alive. Dagon is now faced with a choice, whether to give this technology to the elves in exchange for his slim possibility of freedom and saving many lives, or to watch it happen?
According to the teachings of Auli, he should perform good deeds, but he is neither Saint nor Spiritual God, he is just a dwarf of Thrown Into Prison. So Dagon, after careful consideration, clearly warned in his reply letter to Shiroai that the combination of blasting array and flying city is quite dangerous, and it is doomed to go wrong. Must use it very carefully and equip everyone with parachutes. He was worried that if the blasting array had a problem again, it would interfere with the surrounding mana fluctuations, and the flight and levitation incantation would not work. Only the Jiangu parachute could achieve slow descent without relying on mana, and it might be the only escape possible.

"The Mages Association has been warned, and it's up to them believing or not. If they listen to their opinions, parachutes can save lives. If they don't listen, I'll tell them all the theory, they It won't change either."

Dagon felt that this was the best way to do it, and Rhett agreed. Rhett believes that people must first save themselves before they can be saved by others. Those who work hard to die and don't listen to persuasion, let him embrace death. Rhett didn't care that Shirouai asked Dagon to give her a beard in the reply, as evidence of Dagon's life or as a sustenance for some kind of yearning, which was the private matter of the couple. He is most concerned about when the loose brick can be pulled out, what is behind the brick, and whether there is a chance to dig a passage out.

Under the unremitting efforts of Dagon, finally, the sealing mud around a wall tile was completely removed, and the visible position of the naked eye was all ordinary mud. Dagon can put the relatively thin index finger and little finger into the gap, pinch the brick and shake it, trying to loosen it.

The brick shook very little, and judging from the strength of the feedback, it was a very deep stone brick, like the shape of a prison cell. The roots of the stone bricks are buried by earth and stones, and every time Dagon shakes, it can only shake off the dust of the little bit, which is very inefficient. In addition to shaking, he had to blow into the cracks of the bricks so that the falling dust would fly out. There is no technical content in this work, it is shaking and blowing, and the other hand is holding another scale and grinding other masonry joints.

I originally thought that natural elements would come in after opening the seal, but this idea did not become a reality. The dirt and sand behind the bricks don't provide the natural elements, not even the Earth Element - the only thing they provide is heat. Dagon found that the depths of the walls were warmer, and each time he blew in, the wind that returned was warmer.

Dagon suspects that there is some terrifying heat source behind the wall, such as lava, but Reid disagrees. "How does it work?" Reid asked: "Even with spell, can the incantation of this world be able to tame a volcano?"

"Don't say it, there really is." Dagon said: "The Infinite Labyrinth It is built on top of the lava layer, blocking the only way for monsters to break through. The entire lava layer provides nearly infinite energy for the infinite labyrinth, isn't that proof... um, I'm not in the infinite labyrinth, right?"

"Impossible. You haven't been in a coma for a long time, plus the search and transportation, there is simply not enough time to bring you from Myris to Gamor City. Unless..." Reid thought of one thing and said: "U·5·A's battle squad can open the Transmission Gate, perhaps by means of teleportation, in time."

"If digging out is really the lava layer under the infinite labyrinth, then I am sure I can't dig." Dagon patted his head and said, "I have good resistance to fire, but I'm not completely immune to fire damage. Even a real ancient red dragon can't survive in lava, let alone me. The Jiangu people are mixed."

"Don't jump to conclusions yet. As long as the threat behind the brick wall is less urgent, you can keep working. What if it wasn't a lava layer? If it was just a powerful geothermal spring Providing heat? Don't forget about the moisture in the cell - the lava layer doesn't provide hot flashes, does it?"

Yes, lava assumes there are hard injuries that cannot be concealed, and there is always moisture in the cell Incredibly, there is no explanation for this. So Dagon continued to dig and shake until the first piece was turned and slowly pulled out.

The cross-section of the brick was almost the size of two fists facing each other, but it was over a meter deep and shaped like a wedge. In the deepest part of the wedge buried in the earth and rock, Dagon saw the last thing he wanted to see: crystalline stone after the lava had cooled. This basically proves that there is lava here, or there was lava. All in all, the dirt behind the walls can be very dangerous, and Dagon has to be very careful.

"Dig it, it seems that there is no other way." Reid spread out both hands and said: "It is impossible to be trapped here and wait to die, and it is not too much to pin all your hopes on Shiroai. All right. My suggestion is to keep digging. But now you have to figure out a way to cover up the construction site so that it won't be found by the elf jailer."

"I've been locked up here for so long, and the elves have never entered the room. One step." Dagon shrugged and said, "If they could watch me, I wouldn't be able to dig a wall, right?"

Reid shook his head and said, "Think the enemy in the worst case scenario. Action. I'll make this scene for you: the cell door opens, the figurine creates a sword array, and then pushes forward. You have to step back and shrink into the corner of the bedroom so the elves can come in and check. Maybe they don't usually care about your movements , but I think I'll always check with you."

"Hmm, there is a possibility you said. How can I cover it up?"

"Change a piece of Head digging, like the deepest point," Reid said. "Find a way to fill in the holes you dug before. Stones can be plugged back in, and food scraps can be used to fill in the gaps. As for the surface coating, you can scrape some from somewhere else, and then Use wet bread as a binder and rub it on."

"That doesn't mean nothing is dry and food is wasted?"

"Silly! You dig With such a stone, can't it be a tool? It can't be called a weapon?" Reid said: "Look at the shape of the stone, it's a chisel, a wedge, a pick that can help you dig. More Okay, you can wear it out instead of pulling the scales all the time!"

Dagon thought about it, understood the reasoning, and scratched his head sadly. "Yes, it won't be wasted at all, I'm a little anxious. This is a job that takes a lot of time. As long as I persevere, persevere, and work hard every day, I will be able to dig through this place sooner or later. Hey, is this just you? Tell me about Yugong Yishan?"

"Almost, but you can't have children here."

"Haha, your joke is so cold." Dagon rolled the eyes and said : "Ryder, do you think I'll dig it out first, or Shiroai will let me out first?"

"How do I know that? I'm still thinking about why that bastard didn't come here. Save us? Doesn't it miss being scolded by me all day?"
