Without the information blockade, two days later, the images of the Battle of Earth Ring Star fully bloomed on the Internet and spread quickly, causing the surprise and shock of the vast number of interstellar citizens.
The Black Star Legion's search notice event during this period is relatively well-known. The interstellar society thought that Black Star was just looking for people, and many people actively participated in it. Unexpected breaking news.
Aren't you looking for someone, why did Black Star fight with Tool Nation again? !
Not only did they fight, but this time they even won!
In the last smart plague incident, Tool Nation's reputation plummeted because of its position exposure, but its strength and status were limited. Although the three major civilizations have been promoting a nominal tie record, but because the evidence is not solid enough, the publicity effect is poor. A little meaning.
However, the strength of Black Star is there. Although many people will not sneer, but they also understand that there is water in their hearts. It is just because Black Star has made contributions, so everyone cheers and will not come out to sing naysayers.
But this time, the video data circulated recorded the whole process, and there was no omission. Black Star basically won one-on-one, proving the authenticity of the record, which caused an uproar among the masses.
The powerful impression that Tool Nation has always created in the minds of countless interstellar citizens gradually began to fade, and the image of Black Star became more and more profound, gradually taking away the prestige of Tool Nation.
In the past tens of hundreds of years, the impression that Tool Nation has left on people seems to have never suffered a loss. However, in less than a year, Tool Nation has suffered two deflations, and they are all on Black Star alone. !
The birth of Black Star, in just a few decades, has created a legendary story after another, and has become the most eye-catching Transcendent A Grade recognized in the past half century. The story this time The impact is even worse than the last time, and most of the interstellar society feels that the times are changing. It seems that a new round of new and old alternation is happening under the eyes of all of them.
Of course, shock is shock, and most Interstellar citizens are more puzzled about the cause of the matter, curious why Black Star and Tool Nation fought this time.
The interstellar society knows that these two are the presidents and vice presidents of the Transcendent A Grade Association, and the purpose of the association is to mediate the military conflict of Transcendent A Grade, but now the president and vice president are taking the lead in breaking the rules. It's not that the representative development federation exists in name only, but we know that these powerful individuals are hard to change.
A considerable number of interstellar citizens have deep-rooted prejudice against Transcendent A Grade, respecting and fearing, yearning and disgusting, but Black Star is one of the few exceptions.
Regarding this matter, there is another version of the conspiracy theory that is more widely circulated. It is believed that this time it must be a conspiracy that Tool Nation is secretly brewing, and Black Star once again stopped him - there is an intelligent plague. The good reputation of the country has been completely ruined. As long as the behavior is a little out of line, it will touch the sensitive nerves of the public, and people will subconsciously think that he is planning some conspiracy that is not conducive to the peace of the universe.
And this statement is not groundless. In the video of Earth Ring Star, it is clearly shown that Tool Nation's reason for blocking the planet is to track fugitives, and the identity of the fugitives is hard not to think of Aesop, who was recently wanted by Black Star Legion.
As a result, many people "suddenly realized" and felt that the truth was revealed.
It turns out that Tool Nation must have discovered that Aesop was lost, so he wanted to intervene and secretly kidnap Aesop, in order to threaten Dragon Seat and Black Star!
This person is too bad, obviously it is the family business of the Black Star Legion, but he wants to take advantage of the situation and kidnap other people's relatives, which is disgusting!
This version of the conspiracy theory seems to be well-founded and has been recognized by more and more people. On the Internet, the denunciation and contempt actions against Tool Nation have intensified. It seems that overnight, Tool Nation has suddenly become everyone shouting and beating object, notorious.
Such a rapid spread of public opinion is naturally the driving force behind it, and there are more than one. The forces that once had grievances with Tool Nation, or who have always disliked Tool Nation, are all using the topic to help fuel the flames. Given Tool Nation's reputation among its peers, it's not hard to guess who sent these unsolicited navy troops.
After several days of public opinion fermenting, the Black Star Legion issued a brief announcement statement, pushing the matter to a new height.
The Black Star Legion claimed that they had retrieved Aesop and found that Aesop’s departure was not voluntary, but was kidnapped. It has been verified that Tool Nation is one of the accomplices, and the real culprit behind the incident is Modo civilization, Legion said, The possibility of further action cannot be ruled out.
Of course, the official rhetoric is more euphemistic, but the interstellar society can understand the subtext of Black Star.
—Small, want to fuck me behind your back? Wash your neck and wait!
…
"It can be confirmed that the soul-changing instrument has fallen into the hands of Black Star..."
In the high-level conference room of Modo civilization, it seemed that the air had condensed into a colloid, and every breath of everyone present was stagnant and heavy.
They have the inside information, and they naturally know that the real reason for Black Star's fight with Tool Nation is to snatch the soul-changing instrument, and Tool Nation personally confirmed that the soul-changing instrument has fallen into the hands of Black Star.
Modo didn't know at first that Manison was here for the soul-changing instrument, thinking that the information was well concealed, but it was too late to know now.
Even if Tool Nation's motives for cooperation are not simple, it is Black Star who succeeds in the end, and it is meaningless to entangle Tool Nation's behavior, but may terminate cooperation and lose a boost.
In contrast, Modo prefers that Tool Nation grabbed the soul-changing instrument, but it fell into the hands of Black Star. For them, this is the worst result.
"The soul-changing instrument is too suitable for spies. If Black Star penetrates the high-level of the expeditionary army, it will become a black hole and swallow all the troops and materials we put in." The military's high-level complexion is ugly.
"He will definitely do it. Black Star Legion's statement is his gauntlet. We will endure a larger-scale attack, and even Black Star himself may do it himself."
"You can only do your best to remedy it, and try to get rid of the soul-turning twins, so that Black Star can't use the soul-turning instrument." The three kings of Modo said solemnly.
Because there is no source of intelligence, everyone naturally does not know that the Twin Souls have died. At this time, according to the speculation of Modo's senior management, Black Star also controlled the Soul Changer through the Twin Souls, so the plan to get rid of the Twins was proposed again. .
Hearing this, everyone nodded and agreed, feeling that this was one of the few feasible plans at present.
The failure of the action naturally has to pay the price. Modo civilization knows the risks. It can only blame its bad luck for losing the bet. Now how to deal with Black Star’s counterattack is an important issue. The pressure brought by Black Star is too great, and everyone is Worrying, like an enemy.
Knowing that it would cause such a chain reaction, I didn't confuse the Kunde people to attack the Scarlet Empire.
Transcendent star cluster allies are unreliable, they are too lazy to deal with the mess caused by Modo, and only hope that Modo's family will carry the Black Star hard and stop messing with the overall strategy... But this is obviously impossible, and no one is willing to pay no The corresponding harvest, Modo is not willing to be in a predicament, and must plan for himself.
And because of the difference in position, the behavior of Modo civilization is tantamount to cheating in the eyes of other Transcendent star cluster civilizations. Instead of obediently resisting Black Star, it may provoke others to end in person, so the dissatisfaction of Transcendent star cluster allies can be imagined.
A high-level executive hesitated for a moment and said cautiously: "This is the end of the matter, and it is useless to talk about it. Given our current situation, if the situation is not right, maybe we can only withdraw from the Glittering World competition..."
"Impossible!" The three kings of Modo said decisively, "As long as there is still a little chance, we will never quit the Glittering World competition at all costs!"
The voice fell, and everyone quickly agreed to show that they were politically correct.
However, in my heart, not every high-level person agrees. Seeking the future for civilization is naturally very important, and they don’t mind working hard for it, but if the price is to affect their original status, thereby indirectly damaging the power and status of people in these positions in the universe, then many high-level attitudes are more ambiguous. .
From the development of the exploration history to the present, the leadership has changed one after another. Even if the spirit of enterprising still exists, the overall concept still tends to be conservative. This is an unavoidable natural law.
Compared with the high-level people who grew up with blood and fire, not everyone in the current high-level people has a lofty sense of mission, and no system can curb the spread of selfishness... What will happen to the future of civilization? After all, it is a matter of the future. People of the moment still think about the present moment the most, or the position of power that they can enjoy when they are alive.
In the opinion of some people, if things cannot be done, maintaining the status quo of Transcendent star cluster civilization is not bad. People who are willing to go all the way to the black will never be the majority.
…
Ancient Star Desert, a temporary residence of the Mechanic God.
Zack put on his best suit, looked in the mirror, rolled up the oil-stained cuffs, stuffed a few strips of cardboard into the collar to smooth out the wrinkles, and took care of it for five minutes. Pushing open the door and walking towards the city's central holy mountain temple, you can see a group of neatly dressed Mechanicus believers also heading in the same direction, smiling and nodding to each other.
Mechanic gods have the characteristics of some kind of nomadic tribe, and they constantly migrate across the universe. Each great priest is in charge of a migration team. Every once in a while, the great priest will hold a unified ceremony. All believers in their respective places of residence. Everyone will wear the best clothes to participate, which is one of the traditions of the Mechanic.
Zack is an ordinary believer with the position of a heavy mining armored operator. He originally believed in Manison, but after the incident of the intelligent plague, he changed his belief and began to worship Black Star.
Therefore, he has received a lot of cold eyes from his neighbors for several months, because most of the time, believers with the same object of faith will choose to live in the same area.
Although the Mechanicum advocates freedom of belief, ordinary believers who are completely unaffected are a minority, so Zacks who openly changed his door is very conspicuous in the community. Although it is impossible for the neighbors to do something, there will definitely be no good looks. .
Especially a good friend named Modier, who is a die-hard believer of Tool Nation. After Zack converted to Black Star, Modier came to persuade more than once, but in the end it would turn into a fierce debate, and the subject of the debate was It was the credibility of the original tie record, which Zack believed to be reliable, while Modier insisted that the tie record was just a means to fake and smear Tool Nation.
Neither of the two could convince the other, and gradually they did not communicate much. He had not contacted each other for many days.
While thinking about it, Zack maintained a devout attitude, followed the crowd to the temple square, took the ritual supplies from the priest, distinguished the direction, and walked towards the Black Star Hall, each mechanical god has its own 's branch.
Walking on the road, Zack found something different. There were basically no believers in Black Star before. Although there were a little more after the intelligent plague incident, the number was still sparse. At most, it was only about one-tenth of Tool Nation. The hall has always been deserted, far less than the door of the Tool Nation Hall.
And this time, he found that the number of believers who went to the Black Star Hall was several times more than before, and he couldn't help but feel refreshed and happy.
"There are more and more like-minded people. My choice is indeed correct. Black Star is more worthy of belief than Tool Nation."
He was secretly happy and walked into the Black Star Hall. At this time, it was very lively, and there were several times as many believers in the past. If he didn't know it, he might think that this was the Tool Nation Hall.
Soon, Zack completed the entire ritual process, and was about to make way for the people behind him, when he suddenly turned his eyes and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure not far away.
"Huh, Modir? Why are you here?"
Hearing someone himself, Modier turned his head and saw that it was Zack, his face suddenly became unnatural, and he hurriedly covered his face with his hands and walked away.
Seeing this, Zack quickly chased after him and grabbed Modier's arm to prevent him from getting away.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to see you here." Zack joked.
"Hehe, it's really a coincidence, I originally wanted to go to Tool Nation Palace, but I didn't expect to get lost." Modier smiled stiffly.
"The Tool Nation Palace is in the opposite direction, you can get lost, are you following the crowd, because there are many people here, so you are mistaken?" Zack teased.
"That's right, that's it." Modir hurriedly agreed.
"Then... what is this!" Zack suddenly reached into his pocket and took out a mechanical item. It was Black Star's hand-made statue, which belonged to the household item that was enshrined in the house. He looked at the embarrassed Mo. Dill, hehe smiled and said: "Don't tell me this is a wrong purchase. Only blind people can recognize the wrong idol. To be honest, have you also betrayed Tool Nation and converted to Black Star?"
"Bullshit! Betrayal what kind of betrayal..." Modir's voice blushed, and he tried to defend himself: "Can the matter of believers be considered betrayal?"
Zack looked contemptuous and didn't speak, he just laughed twice.
Under the gaze of his old friends, Modier's momentum quickly weakened, and he whispered: "Don't laugh, I admit, I started to believe in Black Star, okay?"
"Yo, now that I admit it, why did you quibble just now?"
"Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding..." Modir blushed.
The two had debated more than a dozen times before, and he insisted that Black Star was inferior to Tool Nation. However, the video of Black Star cutting and exploding Tool Nation clones in front of him a few days ago made his face swollen, so he secretly scolded Tool Nation. After a meal, he secretly changed his beliefs, hiding and tucked away, afraid to let people know, for fear of being laughed at, and if he meets his former friends, he can't wait to hide away.
Looking at his appearance, Zack shook his head dissatisfiedly, "At first glance, you just believed in Black Star for a while, you are completely new, and you don't understand the essence at all."
"Essence?" Modir was very interested, but embarrassed to ask.
"Hey, look at you, you feel embarrassed and ashamed when you encounter such a trivial matter, it's too outrageous, how can we look like a Black Star believer? As a Black Star believer, you can have nothing else, but the face, It must be thick!"
Zack put his hands on his hips, speaking righteously.
"There is such a saying?" Modir's eyes widened.
"Of course! This is the attitude of life that Black Star taught us. Many times, you feel that you are ashamed and embarrassed, but... Who cares about your feelings! Don't be sentimental!"
"Huh?" Modir opened his mouth wide and hesitated.
"Shut up, don't ask so many questions, and listen to my teachings." Zack stared.
"...I haven't asked yet?!"
"Cough, in short, as believers, we must learn the excellence of idols, Black Star's face is well-known in the universe, look at me, I don't even change the community, no matter what they say, dare to come and argue with me, I will be a missionary Now, look at you again, you all believe in Black Star, and you are even afraid that others will know that you are unqualified!"
"Sounds plausible... Anything else to watch out for?"
Modier was shocked and a little ashamed, and quickly asked for advice humbly.
"Of course, Black Star told us that a qualified mechanic should exercise every day to develop a strong physique!" Zack rolled up his sleeves, bulging his pimple-like arm muscles, and his muscles were knotted.
Most people have never believed in Black Star. The teachings and rules are set by people. Believers will extract characteristics from the actions of idols and regard them as the purpose of the sect. As for the characteristics of Black Star, many believers saw a new world and broke the old concept.
It turned out that a real mechanic should take the standard of martial arts and ask himself, as long as he is physically strong, he can make up for his weaknesses, and use himself as a trap to seduce the enemy's face!
Black Star has proved it with actual records, this is a more advanced tactics!
The news that Manison was defeated by Black Star for the first time caused Tool Nation to lose a large number of believers, and many people changed their families and voted under Black Star's door. For a time, there was a fitness craze in the Mechanicum, and the fitness equipment was often out of stock. The same scene was simultaneously staged in many Mechanicist residences.
…
"This guy, Black Star, is getting more and more capable of fighting..."
In the branch of the Infinite Consortium, Sorokin looked at the news report with a gloomy expression on his face.
Even if judged by his harsh eyes, Tool Nation is a rare powerhouse in history. Black Star was abused quite badly more than ten years ago, but now he can actually deflate Manison head-on, and twice.
It is not good news for Sorokin that a guy who seems to have guessed his details has such a strong combat power.
"With Black Star's current combat power, if I want to take action against him and remove hidden dangers, I must take back all the soul seeds and restore the strength of the complete body. I have to change my identity again..."
Sorokin paced back and forth, feeling annoyed.
Among the many Transcendent A Grades, some people seek fame, some people seek power, some people seek power, and some people have no desires... and he just wants to make money.
Over the years, in order to achieve various plans, Sorokin has changed one vest after another, but this time, he was reluctant to be the head of the Infinite Consortium, which was a huge wealth that took too much effort to accumulate.
…
On the other side, in the fleet on the return journey of Black Star Legion, Han Xiao had dealt with many chores and freed up time, and finally remembered to test the characteristics of the soul-changing instrument, so he summoned Fording and temporarily took back the soul-changing instrument.
I rubbed my fingertips on the mirror surface and tried to press it in, but I couldn't get in at all. No matter how much strength I used, the Soul-Zhanging Instrument would rather die than the situation where it actively sucked Fording.
"There is even a claim of a qualified person, let me see, what kind of thing are you..."
Han Xiao's eyes moved and he activated [Bold Quest].
