Chapter 1030 Far Traveler

Iron Man Technology of the Gondor Empire - Gao Wen actually didn't know much about this. Although he had the memory of Gowen Cecil, even Gowen Cecil was just the lowest-class knight apprentice from the Gondor border area. His limited knowledge came from several rural teachers, and such an educational level obviously would not involve too much about "Iron Man Technology".

According to Gao Wen’s own understanding, this technology is strong artificial intelligence + bionic robot, which is a cutting-edge technology both on earth and in this world.

But in his limited understanding, at least one thing is certain: all the Iron Man belonged to the "Iron Man Corps" since the day they stepped off the production line. Whether they were sent to various legions in the mainland or to a certain outpost on the border, the Iron Man could not escape from this "corps". The relevant logic was written to the lowest level of their minds, and with their own abilities... it would definitely not be changed.

As a former member of the Gondor royal family, Veronica/Ophelia obviously knows this.

Therefore, after seeing an "Iron Man Soldier" who claimed to have left the Iron Man Soldier, even she was surprised: "Leaving the Iron Man Soldier? How did you do it?"

Diana shook her head: "I don't remember that my memory device had malfunctioned and lost a lot of content after repairing it - I only know that I have indeed left the Corps, and there is a clear understanding of this in the core of my mind."

Veronica looked serious. She looked at the iron soldier who had been active in the human world for some reason for some reason, and her tone was gentle as usual: "So, are you serving the royal family of Tifeng people now?"

"Yes," Diana nodded slightly, "they took in and repaired me, and I swear to serve his family."

"Thank you... The normal Iron Man doesn't seem to make such a logical judgment, but it doesn't matter," Veronica shook her head gently, "Do you mind if I ask you a few more questions?"

Diana looked at Veronica and nodded after thinking for a moment: "As long as I do not violate the oath I made to the Augustus family, and at the same time, I do not violate my mental logic."

"It's just some past events that have nothing to do with this era..." Veronica said gently, "Do you still remember where you were and what work you did?"

Diana recalled it and nodded: "I was one of the guards of the Viplanton Observatory, responsible for defending the safety of Sir Scott Plantin and Mr. Alphonse Hall."

"Then do you remember the outbreak of the magic tide? Are you still at the observatory at that time?"

"...This memory is partially defective, but it can be restored," Diana hesitated for a moment, but then nodded. "I confirmed that I was working at the observatory to the last moment before the tide of magic tide broke out, but I had no impression of the specific situation at that time."

Veronica thought for a while and asked again, "What after that? What do you still remember?"

"There was a big gap in my memory. After the consciousness was re-opened, I had already arrived in a country re-established by the remains of Gondor. At that time it was called the 'Tifeng Kingdom'," Diana replied. "I was recycled by their court scholars and wizards. According to them, I fell on the edge of the magnificent wall and my body was seriously damaged. They took me to Orlandell as a research sample, and it took nearly thirty years to re-awaken me... It was already 47 years before Tifeng."

"It took them thirty years to repair you?" Gao Wen, who had been listening quietly without interrupting her mouth, finally couldn't help but speak, "And it was already 47 years at that time... In other words, you have been wandering for more than ten years after the outbreak of the demon tide before being discovered by humans near the magnificent wall?"

"From time calculations, it's true," Diana said calmly, "but I can't be sure whether I've been wandering in the wasteland or 'outside' activities near the wasteland for those decades, and this part of the memory is completely missing."

"... In the demon tide, almost all the unprotected iron soldiers were damaged by the impact, so you should be moving outside the wall, but there is nothing absolute in the world, and your core state of mind is a bit strange. This may mean that you were lucky enough to be "alive" back then," Veronica said thoughtfully, "No matter what, you have lost the memory from the outbreak of the demon tide to entering the human kingdom... do you really have no impression at all?"

Diana showed a very humanistic look of thought and trouble. Although the expression changed slightly, it still made people wonder that there was almost no difference between her and the real person. Then she shook her head: "I only remember a very brief and vague impression-Sir Scott Plantin ordered me to move northeast, and I don't remember anything other than that."

The jazz's name has appeared for the second time, and Amber couldn't help but ask, "Who is that Sir Scott Planting?"

It was not Diana who answered her, but Veronica, who held a platinum scepter on the side. This ancient disobedient was obviously more clear about the upper class of the ancient Gondor Empire than Gowen: "He was the administrator of the Viplanton Observatory at that time."

"That's obvious. When the Demon Tide broke out, the director of the Viplanton Observatory ordered his bodyguard to evacuate and run to the safe area. Then the lady did as she did, but she might not have run faster than the Demon Tide, and she did not act with the fugitive troops at that time, so she was mostly caught up by the Demon Tide. After being damaged, she wandered between the wasteland and the human kingdom for more than ten years until she was finally discovered by the Tifeng people at that time. Then she was repaired for thirty years. After repairing, she could move, but most of her memories were lost... Basically, this should be the process," Amber pinched her chin, her pointed ears trembled, and she said with great analysis, but then she scratched her hair and looked at Gao Wen, "By the way, where is the Viplanton Observatory?"

"Near the northern border of ancient Gondor, close to magic scorch," Gao Wen flipped the map in his mind, looking at Diana casually, "If you start from there and move northeast, as long as there is no major deviation in the direction, you should encounter the eastern tail end of the Dark Mountains. At that time, the Black Forest had not spread there yet, so you have the opportunity to cross the mountains and directly enter the northern part of the Shadow Swamp... It is indeed within Tifeng. A dangerous journey, I should congratulate you on completing it safely."

Diana lowered her head slightly to Gao Wen: "Thank you for your praise."

"This is not a praising," Gao Wen waved his hand, then looked at Diana curiously, "So... have you told Rosetta Augustus about these things?"

"Please forgive me for not being able to tell me." The black-haired maid said in a calm tone but firm manner.

"...It seems that as long as it involves your master's affairs, you will not talk to strangers casually," Gao Wen was not surprised by this. "But I guess he must know, and it must be more than we know - in hundreds of years, the Augustus family should have inquired about everything they can."

Diana still maintained that indifferent expression, neither affirmed nor denied, nor even denied. Only at this time did she show her "traits" that were different from real people, and she could not reveal any information on the face covered with bionic skin and inside steel and polymer.

Then Veronica and Gao Wen asked a few more questions. Without violating the principles, Diana answered some of them. For Veronica's "face", the lady's attitude was actually quite cooperative, but she did not reveal any valuable information after all.

After all the questions and answers came to an end, Diana's eyes swept between Gaowen, Veronica and Amber, and asked with plenty of patience: "So, can I leave? Or are you planning to tear me apart for more information?"

"Ah, of course this won't be," Gao Wen was stunned and quickly waved his hand. Then he couldn't help but fall into a brief hesitation, but after a quick weighing, he nodded, "You can leave, Ms. Diana."

"So, thank you for your care during this period." The black-haired maid bowed slightly, lifted the hem of her skirt again and saluted. Then she bent down to pay tribute to Veronica next to her, and then took a step back and her figure gradually disappeared into the air.

After the other party's figure and breath disappeared for a few seconds, Amber suddenly looked at Gao Wen: "I really let her go like that? If you regret it, I can stop her - she left a relatively obvious trace on the edge of the shadow world, and I can track it."

To be honest, Gao Wen was really a little confused. After all, a so special Gondor Iron Man who might have hidden countless secrets left under his nose. The experience behind the other party was really unbearable. However, after the entanglement, he still shook his head: "We cannot seize the messenger sent by Tifeng for no reason - especially such a special 'messenger'."

Diana does have many secrets, but Gao Wen thought about it carefully. These secrets do not seem to involve the core interests of either Tifong or Cecil. At this stage, they can only be used to satisfy their curiosity. In terms of value, it is not cost-effective to threaten the current extremely fragile and dangerous balance between the two countries in order to explore these secrets.

There is ample time.

He felt that this would not be his last time dealing with the "Gondorian Mother".

"Actually, I'm a little worried that Tifengren will know some of our... sensitive information from her," Amber obviously has more worries. This half-elf who is careless on weekdays is still quite sensitive in intelligence. "For example, wouldn't Veronica just revealed her identity and let people go like this? Is it a bit... sloppy?"

"Why don't I know you're so agile?" Gao Wen glanced at Amber with a little surprise, and then shook his head with a smile before the other party jumped up. "It's a good thing to be smarter. Veronica's identity is indeed a bit special, but... what kind of threat do you think this information will pose to Cecil after it reaches Rosetta's ears?"

Amber was stunned for a moment, subconsciously pinched his chin, muttering as he thought: "There seems to be no clear threat... Rosetta cannot make any specific actions against this information... But this is important information after all, people like Rosetta will seize and make good use of all valuable information."

"Yes, he will probably think about these things carefully," Gao Wen said slowly, "But it doesn't matter. In a sense, I don't mind that he knows more about disobedient things, including some of our 'little secrets'... If he could think more about these little secrets, or even suffer from insomnia for a few nights, it would be even better."

Amber blinked, stared at Gao Wen for a long time, and finally muttered: "I'm afraid I'm not planning again..."

Gao Wen seemed not to hear Amber's muttering. He noticed that Veronica had been a little distracted since the beginning, and this was a very rare situation on the other party, so he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Are you still thinking about that 'Diana'?"

"Nothing," Veronica shook her head, "I'm really thinking about her, but it doesn't matter."

As she said that, she slowly raised her head and looked into the distance, then withdrew her gaze and said to Gao Wen: "Please allow me to take a break-I've been 'looking' for too long and I'm a little tired."

"Of course," Gao Wen agreed immediately, "Thank you for your hard work, go and have a rest."

Watching the "saint princess" leave the courtyard, Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and thought of a detail just now:

When Veronica looked into the distance, she seemed not to look at the Winter Castle—the place where Diana returned in theory—but to the direction of Gondor wasteland.

This made him think a little, but soon he shook his head and temporarily put the matter aside: he had something else to do.

Gao Wen raised his right hand and his eyes fell on a silver-white ring on his finger.

He recalled the journey to Tallond not long ago, and recalled the last conversation with the Dragon God Enya - the conversation ended with the sudden change in the situation in the Loren continent and the change of the God of War.

Now, the divine disaster that was descending on the heads of mortals has finally ended, and the battle on the winter castle defense line has been settled. Maybe I should contact the giant dragons, and they may also be paying attention to the changes in the situation of this divine disaster.

Gao Wen bent his fingers and gently stroked the surface of the Misilian Ring.

The subtle magic power flows in this light and sophisticated magic device, communicating the distant Tallond, however...

No response.

...

In the north of Loren Continent, on the top of the towering mountains of the Holy Dragon Principality.

The cold wind whistled through the mountains, and the snow that blew down from the top of the Longyue cliff flew in the wind, passing through the huge stone buildings arranged in a row on the mountains, rolling up the thick and quaint exterior walls of Longlin Fort, and blocked from the fort by burning braziers and invisible dragon-word magic.

Grand Duke Balogel Knar stood on a circular platform at the highest point of Longlin Castle. He lifted the protective barrier around the platform and let the howling cold wind roll his gray hair and heavy cloak.

His eyes penetrated the wind and snow, looking into the direction of the northern sea.

Omega's voice was whistling in his brain, but as a special "homeone", he was still thinking in his flesh and blood until now, without responding to Omega's call.
