Unconquered Sun (75 page)

- More quietly, more quietly, more quietly, my child, silence! - their Knowledge obviously happy with SUCH succession of events softly interrupted it. The first and Third Knowledge even stood up and took the Fairy by arms and put her on legs again, having gently kissed, everyone, respectively, in the right and left cheeks. Then sat down on the places, again having turned into similarity of stone sculptures. - All of us know, the darling, we know all. Yes, the Invincible Sun is artful, it is able
to fascinate and captivate
consciousness of the victims, We know about it. Do not worry, your husband will not be sprayed for change to Community and the Sacred Principles, be not afraid. Moreover, - having made a voice especially confidential, - We will even suit all so that it was not lulled - you are his wife, you are responsible for it. We will give it to you on bails, and the memory littered with this damned witch, We just will clear …

- And it will be former! - the Fairy clapped the hands, from delight for an instant having forgotten about everything.

- Well, of course, former! Even do not doubt! And your family happiness will be rescued,
forever rescued
. We know how it is important for you, expensive! - with a patronizing smile the Second Knowledge told, and Two others knowingly nodded the zolotovolosy heads.

- And now, my dear, - as if bethinking, the Second Knowledge spoke, - you need to help Us. It in your interests, it is necessary to return your Prinze.

- Yes, your Knowledge, - readily answered the Fairy who now when it had firm guarantees of rescue of Prinze from the Knowledge - the highest power and judicial authority in Community which NEVER a beret of the words back! - it was ready to make anything these guarantees were realized. - What can I be useful?

- You during some time lived in the Gold Hall and know it better Us. Tell, please, where your Prinze could hide together with this renegatka?

- Of course, I know, - the Fairy absolutely surely said. - Of course, to the Malachite room is on the twenty second tier below, there their confidential workshops!

- There now and miraculously, expensive, here and miraculously … - told, smiling enough, the Second of Three. - Hey, sisters, and well bring the intra cranial analyzer, immediately here. We have to receive from consciousness of our dear sister - Keepers of the Limit No. 3 - the detailed map of vaults.

Right there it is unknown from where two fairies in snow-white tunics of the 1st rank appeared and rolled in the room quite big soft chair on wheels. To a back of a chair the small steel hoop was attached. The fairy under hands was seated on a chair, fastened her hands and legs by means of special steel rims, and on the head dressed a hoop. The fairy looked alarmed, but the Triune Knowledge calmed her:

- Be not afraid, the child, it is not sick. On the contrary, you will be very much, very well …

With these words, all three Knowledge at the same time raised the right hands and carried out by palms from top to down, as if drawing the line from a forehead of the Fairy to a foot of legs. On a body of the Fairy the sweet languor as though it plunged into a heat fragrant bath right there ran. On her face there was a blissful smile, and eyes were rolled up. Her all body became soft. And only bracelets on hands and legs and a hoop on the head held it in a chair.

And on transparent spheres of fairies in the Command center the detailed map of underground tiers with the exact indication of all confidential workshops and even the Malachite room appeared at this time. Even a moment - and the card was loaded into consciousness of avatars and a column one by one began different ways to go down directly in confidential vaults of the Invincible Sun.

"The second shah is put" - the Triune Knowledge thought enough. - "Now we will look what your following course, the impudent rebel will be!"

On plates of gold ladders boomingly began to knock steps of golems and a Cyclops - they the first went down. Avatars went behind. It was made deliberately - begin fight, it is better to offer uncontrollable and less dear golems and a Cyclops. Avatars - eyes, ears and hands of fairies - without them the management of battle and magic support would be impossible.

First tier, the second, third … The fourth, fifth … According to the data reported from the Center there were 17 more tiers to the purpose.

The first golem, from snow-white marble, high, above human growth, with green malachite eyes and a heavy stone club in hands, put a stone leg on the step conducting on the sixth tier. Around it was dark, but light also is not necessary to golems. They were guided by means of the magic waves which are let out by them which, being reflected from walls, measured to them distance, defined the material nature, its form and the sizes that helped them to be guided even in outer darkness.

The snow-white golem took still a step down and stopped. It seemed to it that he hears some rustle. He turned the head, looked up, down, on the parties - nothing. Then took still a step forward, but at this moment stumbled about something sticky, damp, but at the same time unusually strong as a web. The golem did not keep standing and swept with a deaf roar down a ladder not in forces to rise because the viscous white muck entangled his hands and legs so that he could not move them. Surprisingly, but there was not even enough all its force, sufficient to break a skull to a dragon, to break off fetters! It powerlessly pulled hands and legs as the broken mechanical doll, but could do nothing.

Other golems rushed was to it to the aid, but also mucks got stuck in invisible even for them, got on a floor it is never more to rise. Even a Cyclops got confused and finally created a jam for advance of all column. The same arose on all other directions of descent. Fairies were extremely surprised with it to strange properties of unknown substance and are angry by the arisen jam, watching the events through eyes of the avatars.

But so far they thought what to undertake, the blow of terrible force was struck to a congestion of soldiers Podnebesya.

On a ceiling and on platform walls between 5 and 6 tiers suddenly there were five beings reminding terrible insects - whether spiders, whether cockroaches, whether ants. They took each other for pads and lifted similar to scorpion tails, hissed something inarticulate. Suddenly some black swill, disgustingly smelly and vile began to flow from the time which is carefully disguised from the observer between stones and filled in the stone heads and trunks of golems and a Cyclops who not knowingly rolled the dull stone brains and eyes. And then sharp whistle was distributed, and black swill suddenly flashed a bright flame, and all tier appeared on fire - but on fire not simple! This fire - black, stinking, caustic and such strong that golems and a Cyclops, though were turned from a stone, steel melts from heat, and the avatars made of the thinnest air began to burst with loud cotton as balloons. In the face of the amazed fairies one sphere-vizator behind another of fairies died away, and mistresses of the dead of avatars could do nothing with it.

And meanwhile vile arachnoid blew - and the tongues of flame driven goodness knows where from by the risen strong wind, captured the top tiers. Black swill poured down from everywhere now, and a flame was thrown from one to other golem or an avatar, destroying tens and hundreds of these beings, without leaving from them even ashes. The fifth and fourth tier burned down completely several minutes, completely, with all soldiers who did not manage to undertake anything for rescue of the life. And the greedy black flame rose above and above now.

Golems and Cyclops from the third and second tiers took to the heels, seeing the full powerlessness before the played elements, forcing down from legs of avatars (it was provided by the program which is built in them - to save the life when they were powerless something to oppose to the enemy). Those even had to fly up under a ceiling that they were not crushed by "comrades in arms".

Avatars, submitting to teams from the Center, tried to fight with goodness knows where from the undertaken flame. On the second and third tier they got off in dense ranks and conjured fire-prevention boards. Millions of droplets of moisture sprayed in air began to be condensed and form walls, impenetrable for fire, which are capable to extinguish even the flaring volcanic lava.

But a black flame, having reached the walls put against it, flashed even stronger and already avatars of the third tier burst one by one as soap bubbles. But survived were not given. They waved air wings - and the strong stream of wind which would bring down from legs even of the real Cyclops departed towards to a black flame, seeking to drive it back, into chasms. But the flame, contrary to any logic, not only did not stop, but having flashed even stronger, rushed even more promptly up, burning avatars already of the second tier also, as well as their predecessors.

When fairies, at last, realized the powerlessness, nearly five thousand their soldiers already burned down also all five earlier taken tier passed in hands of the enemy again. The remained soldiers hastily were evacuated back upward, in an elevated hall. Approximately the same occurred also in other places of break. The gold Hall began to show the teeth …

- Your Knowledge, we found in vaults Murin. Their magic is very strong. We do not know so far as to neutralize it, - Snow-white-white, permanent Elder Sister Ordena "STING" and the technical lead of all operation "Punishment" sent a mental signal of Triune Knowledge. - We suffered small losses.

- I see, expensive, I see, - the Second of Three thoughtfully spoke. - In narrow dark vaults these creatures feel very comfortably. And there to us with them not to be leveled, of course … Though … Why is also not present? Give, sisters, we will work as our clever heads and we will clear halls of the Invincible Sun of cockroaches. Let's taste against them "Honey Pie".

Pearl-white nodded and fairies in the Command Center joined hands and again formed magic chains - on a chain on a tribune - to create a spell.

Three avatars - a blue mantikor, a snow-white griffin and a pink flying monkey - at the same time approached the entrance to a vault stinking and breathing heat where so quickly and disgracefully the great number of their relatives died and undertook paws. Several words in magic language of fairies - and suddenly directly some yellow lump began to grow from air. This Côme rotated round its pivot-center and each time increased in sizes more and more, so far, at last, did not become size about the room. Then avatars made the movement hands from themselves - and the lump itself flew up to an opening of a tunnel and swept on a ladder down as a stone which was pushed off from the mountain. In process of falling, it continued to rotate round its pivot-center and to increase. Then it came to the notorious platform conducting on the sixth tier where Murin placed the traps. Having encountered an obstacle from whitish sticky muck, the sphere with deafening cotton became torn.

The yellow sticky swill which is fragrantly smelling of honey the river began to flow down a ladder, continuing to increase constantly in volume. Murin fell one by one, drugged and lulled by a fragrant smell, got directly to sticky swill and right there coordinated and choked, exactly as flies in honey, and swill all flew and flew down.

Until Murin understood, two tens from them already died. The others rushed in loose directly to airwire cracks of which they both crept out, and looked for rescue in flight. And yellow honey swill meanwhile continued to flow down, up to the last - the twenty second tier - clearing a way for army of Skies. Only the speed of movements of spidery pads Murin rescued remained from death.

Having reached the last tier, liquid stopped staying in the form of a sklizky sticky cover on all steps, stones and a handrail, having left the intoxicating aroma of fresh honey everywhere that interfered with moray eels to return on the left positions. But for golems, a Cyclops and avatars poisonous honey was not an obstacle - they had no organs of smell. And therefore the ill-matched army of Skies surely continued the descent on the transitions cleared from Murin.

The third shah was delivered to the invincible Sun. But whether there will be this shah - a mat - it is still unknown.

The first golems appeared on the twenty second tier approximately in half an hour after start of a spell. They continued to go carefully, everywhere trying to discover possible traps. But the Gold Hall waited for something again.

Workshops were absolutely empty. Not a soul did not find the fairy in their really enormous open spaces. Everywhere the thrown wheelbarrows, a stretcher rolled, on a floor any pieces of wood, pieces of breed and other construction stuff were scattered. Somewhere away ahead a big black spot the huge vessel was seen. It was not protected too.

- Attention! - through lips of one of avatars the fairy said - the senior officer "REAPED". - Directly at the rate - object of extreme danger. Not to touch object. To surround, put the strengthened protection. To a head avatar to rise upward.

Kind one hundred golems and Cyclops, stupidly rotating the stone heads, formed a dense chain around "especially dangerous object". And the head avatar of M-3-896 flew up up. However he managed to find nothing as the vessel was densely soldered. But huge emission of the energy proceeding from it was succeeded to record an avatar. The manometer - the device measuring amount of magic energy - just read off scale. It did not have enough divisions into showing the original level of radiation.

- Your Knowledge …

- We know, the sister, we know … Here it is the required container in which the stolen solar energy is stored. Be careful, the sister. If this object I blow up, afraid, not only from the Rocky Mountains, but also from all Oversea country nothing will remain. Probably, it is also a secret weapon of this madwoman. I think that We need to change it a sentence. Having created such deadly weapon, it is not worthy to exist more on this earth - it has to be sprayed immediately on capture on quarks, hear, the sister?
