Starfall 841, June 26, at the edge of the Lost Galaxy, in the Pioneer Fortress complex.
"Abnormal space-time rift..."
Contrary to what No. 3 thought, after learning the news, Joshua, who was sitting in the center of the hall, surprisingly had no reaction. After he repeated this sentence expressionlessly, he raised his head slightly and began to face The ceiling of the central control room is in a daze.
"Joshua? Your mental deviation value has increased again?"
No. 3 quickly looked at the soldier's data. The mental deviation value was 65%. Although it was very high, compared with the deviation value that was close to 100% not long ago, this result was not abnormal. It was even lowered due to the public beta test of Strife Continent. A lot. Then, the artificial intelligence girl asked doubtfully about the game: "Joshua, according to the speculations of the mage researchers from the External Exploration Department, this abnormal space-time crack that almost only appears around lone adventurers cannot be a natural phenomenon. Behind this, There is definitely a big force spying on us.”
"It may be other hidden void civilizations in the galaxy... It may be the Shepherds or some dissidents on the other side of the abyss who are planning... It may even be another omen... "
"I know."
In response, Joshua nodded. He interrupted No. 3, and then continued to say calmly: "That's for sure - it only appears behind the back of lone adventurers. It's extremely secretive. If it weren't for good luck, there would be nothing we can do. The discovered space-time rift—this kind of thing cannot be a naturally occurring coincidence.”
"Not only that, even the purpose is easy to deduce. It can open the space-time rift, but it doesn't open it too big. There are only two possibilities for this half. One is that it cannot be opened that big, and the other is for concealment. So I deliberately made it smaller. I personally think there are two reasons. The space-time rift cannot be opened too wide, so it can be used for covert reconnaissance."
At this point, Joshua was still holding his head against the ceiling. He narrowed his eyes and said softly: "Across time and space, drop small detection instruments or magic circles, or use various more hidden secret methods to obtain the information behind the time and space rifts." Information - From the fact that the existence behind them can select individual adventurers as targets, it seems that the accuracy of their magic circles is very high, even to the point where it can be accurately cast across the world and even across the galaxy. Of course, it may be some kind of secret method The special effects are actually not as advanced as I thought.”
"Across the galaxy?" It was rare to hear Joshua speculate so much. Before No. 3 could be surprised, she was shocked by the words spoken by the warrior. She walked around in mid-air, frowned and thought hard: "What do you mean? , could this space-time rift be placed by a civilization from another galaxy?"
"It should be... not that strong, right?"
Hearing No. 3's doubts, Joshua couldn't help but sigh. In the past, it only took him a moment to think about these questions before he could come up with the answers and then start taking action, but now due to mental deviation, he needed to think and speak out at the same time to ensure that his thinking was not chaotic.
As for No. 3’s doubts, there is no need to dwell on them - facing an alien galaxy that has developed tens of thousands of years longer than them, one cannot be arrogant at all. The Mycroft civilization has long suffered from arrogance, so now, they The worst and most extreme possibilities should be used to extrapolate the future.
"Why can't it be so strong? No. 3, after all, it is also a world galaxy. According to the Shepherd, where they are, there are countless world galaxies, or at least hundreds of thousands of world galaxies mixed together to form a super The Galaxy Group. The Lost Galaxy we are in is now empty because of the invasion of evil gods, and there are hundreds of powerful or weak civilizations fighting at all times."
Said softly, Joshua shook his head. Although those alien civilizations are not necessarily enemies, they are definitely not weak. The Shepherds also have more than twenty legendary void beasts, a legendary high-level soul with the ultimate intention. The Great Khan's interstellar nomadic race, in the end, just to escape the war, they would rather spend hundreds of years in preparation and go to the Lost Galaxy to fight for a chance of survival.
what does that mean? This means that the fierce fighting on their side has become so bad that even such a powerful race has to flee with the possibility of "annihilation of the whole race".
"Even we don't have no way to interfere with the galaxy in other worlds - as long as Nostradamus is given enough time and resources to prepare, he can do the same as the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrificial Site, knowing the location and determining the coordinates. Whether the teleportation across the galaxy is successful or not is another matter, after all, it is a matter of proficiency."
With that said, Joshua stood up slowly. He turned off the surveillance light screen in the vanguard fortress community in front of him, and then made a large silver screen. The soldier looked at the screen and whispered: "As long as no matter is transmitted, , then whether the space-time channel opens for one kilometer or 10,000 kilometers, it is just '1000' on the coordinates and '10000000' on the coordinates. I have every reason to believe that there are indeed civilizations like this in the alien galaxy. The power to observe us across time and space."
With that said, he embodied a series of world coordinates on the light screen, which were exactly what No. 3 had transmitted to the warriors before, the 12 world coordinates where space and time rifts appeared. Joshua did not speak and watched silently. These world coordinates.
The warrior is not stupid. He still remembers the feeling of being spied on with the old pope when he was in the Fairy Country. Now, after integrating the information, it is easy to get the result.
When the Lost Galaxy completely lifted the space-time distortion blockade with other worlds' galaxies and officially connected them together, the powerful civilizations or individuals in the other world's galaxies all noticed this. Just like the Mycrovian civilization noticed the glorious endless galaxy and wanted to go out, there must be people or civilizations among those glorious galaxies that noticed the mysterious and distant lost galaxy in the distance, and they also wanted to come over.
Therefore, when the world of Mycroft is preparing to unite the void fleet and prepare to officially start the distant expedition to the other side of the star sea, it is not surprising that other people use various secret methods to peek at themselves.
"number 3."
Suddenly, the silent Joshua said: "Help me inform the old pope... inform His Majesty Eagle, I will see him later if I have something to do."
"Okay - the notification has been completed!" No. 3 agreed neatly, and then transmitted the information through the magic network in an instant, but then she asked curiously: "Is it for this matter? Then why Why don't you call Master Nostradamus or Barnier, Barbarossa or the others? Although His Majesty the Pope is strong, he is not specialized in time and space magic, nor does he understand rune formations very well, right?"
Even the Psychic Emperor and the Canghai Sage who specialize in elves are more professional than the Pope... There is at most one photochemical teleportation in the Holy Light system, which was developed not long ago during the Dragon Calamity. Skill…
"I will find those people you mentioned later."
After confirming that Eagle had received the message, Joshua did not stop and turned directly towards the exit of the Zhongshui Hall: "But now I am looking for His Majesty the Pope, and that is not what I want to say... Or rather, It’s not just that one thing.”
When No. 3 was preparing to follow Joshua away as usual, the soldier turned around, put his hand on the girl's shoulder, and gently stopped her from moving forward. Joshua shook his head and whispered with a serious face: "You don't need to follow me this time."
"… OK."
Hearing this, No. 3 naturally understood that Joshua must have something extremely secret to communicate with the Pope. She was very smart and would not act like she had to follow him. But just as No. 3 was about to This main magic projection of hers stayed in the Pioneer Fortress community. While waiting for Joshua to return, she suddenly received a series of steel power information flows from Joshua's hand on her shoulder.
Instinctively analyzing it, and then quickly understanding the content, the artificial intelligence girl subconsciously wanted to open her eyes wide - but because the content was so shocking, she immediately knew that she could not do anything strange. Expressions revealed.
—But why are you telling me this news at this time? !
No matter how much I think about it, I can't figure it out, but I can't express my confusion.
Therefore, this can only be done. No. 3 nodded obediently as if he had not received anything, and then stopped in the central hall, watching the soldiers leave.
