For the first time in millennia, the Legion of the Guardians stood beyond its defenses.
The black starship shuttled back and forth in space, cleaning up the deadly corrosion and harmful debris remaining on the battlefield at the fastest speed. Temporary outpost fortresses and defense platforms were set up one after another to make this not yet stable position Layers of reinforcement, the casters of the guardian giants set up vigilant eyes on the edge of the position, in order to guard against the sudden counterattack of those Corruptors at any time—everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
In other places on the battlefield, the frighteningly large drone army is also reorganizing its team and exiting its position in an orderly manner. They are setting up bunkers and drone storage warehouses further away from the hub , Such a posture effectively reduces the guardian's fear of these terrifying machines.
Nakdar Fortress slowly floated to the area where the Guardian and Drone Legion lines intersected, and anchored at this balance point. This new fortress failed to show its talents throughout the whole process, but in the last ten minutes or so it intercepted the Corrupt Legion with anti-aircraft fire, which was more or less withstood the baptism of war. And above Nakdar Fortress, the giant turtle rock platform and the guardian's flagship "Aiur" are slowly approaching, and a channel connection has been established.
Considering that the guardian giant's height of more than ten meters made it difficult to move in many places on the giant turtle rock platform, Hao Ren and Vivian agreed to Salaman's invitation and boarded the giant ship that was as majestic as a black mountain. They were greeted personally and warmly by the Legion Master of the Guardians.
This is not the first time Hao Ren has boarded a Guardian spaceship, but it is the first time he has boarded a Guardian battleship in good condition. All the internal facilities of this huge war machine match the size of a giant. They were astonishingly huge, which left a deep impression on Hao Ren and Vivian—but that was all. They had been dealing with the Muru trio for a long time, and by now they had gotten used to what the giants were using.
This allowed Hao Ren to quickly turn his attention away from the behemoths around him and shift his attention to the conversation with Salaman.
The guardian's legion leader obviously considered the huge difference in body size between the two parties, so he prepared a platform suspended in mid-air for Hao Ren and Vivienne in advance, so that the two sides could talk at the same height—this courtesy and Thoughtfulness made Vivian quite satisfied.
The bridge of the Guardian Starship is much more lively than that of the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace. This giant ship obviously requires a lot of controllers to operate. Hao Ren looked at the scene on the bridge curiously, and those who served as operators and The Commander's Guardian Giants watched him curiously, too, and it was an equally novel moment for both.
It was the first time for the guardian giants to come into contact with a force (or individual) who called themselves the "Observer". They were quite interested in this man who looked no different from a human but possessed great power. Hao Ren's curiosity was even simpler. :
It was the first time he had seen so many guardian giants! And they're all panting!
These are all the compatriots of Muru and Lemendusa! There are at least two rows of giants standing on the bridge alone! Everyone is alive and kicking! If this is brought back to the three gardeners of Tanagus, it is possible that all three of them will have a myocardial infarction on the spot, right
"Ahem, Hao Ren, pay attention, your eyes are straight," Vivian noticed that Hao Ren was wandering again, and reminded softly with a trace of helplessness, "Salaman is greeting you."
"Eh cough." Hao Ren quickly regained his wandering thoughts and looked at the huge head in front of him.
Salaman is a guardian giant with obvious aging-although guardians have a nearly infinite lifespan and are a standard long-lived species, some of them will still let their bodies show signs of aging as time goes by , the old giant in front of him is obviously this kind. He has a thick beard and hair, and the white beard and hair cover almost half of his face, while the exposed skin is obviously loose and wrinkled, but his eyes are still full of light and wisdom.
"Commander Salaman, first of all, I'm very glad to be here to talk to you face to face," Hao Ren said with a smile on his face, "About the escaped Amantir... I have many questions that I don't quite understand."
"This is my responsibility. I didn't expect that the drone army brought by your Excellency would... be so powerful that it would defeat those monsters directly on the frontal battlefield," Salaman said, his voice rumbling like Like thunder, "All I thought was to push the front line forward, the Guardian Legion and the UAV Legion completed the confluence, and then we will discuss the next move."
He first explained why he didn't inform about Amantir in advance, but in fact what he said was indeed the battle procedure that had been discussed before. There was a mistake in the communication between the two parties in the link.
Then the legion leader explained in detail: "Amantil is indeed the lair of those corrupters, but it... used to be an important property of the Guardian Legion. There are some crucial things on that planetary warship. , which cannot be damaged in any way.”
Hao Ren immediately thought of something, which was the most special item on the entire planetary warship: "Is it the crystal that acts as a 'navigation computer'?"
"Why..." Salaman was a little surprised for a moment, but then he figured out the joints, "That's right, Nakdal is currently in your hands, and I saw that its control center is still standing on the surface, so it must be expensive." Fang has already touched the 'Nakdal Crystal' located under the control center."
"So that crystal was named after the planetary battleship..." Hao Ren muttered, and raised his head, "Can you tell us more about that crystal?"
Salaman showed a hesitant look this time, and finally shook his head slightly: "Sorry, this is a matter related to the secrets of the Holy Land, we can't..."
Without waiting for the old giant to finish speaking, Hao Ren raised his finger to Vivienne who was standing beside him: "Even she has no right to know?"
Several guardian giants standing nearby looked at each other, but Salaman couldn't help asking: "Her? This lady is..."
"If I'm not mistaken, those goblins think I'm their queen," Vivian spread her hands, "And if I'm not mistaken, I was created by the Goddess of Creation with her own divine blood... Her own daughter."
When Vivienne said these words, her expression was very strange, with a bit of embarrassment and guilt: this was the first time she introduced her background to others in such a serious manner, and the frighteningly high family status in the household registration book made this The countess (who is still the queen now) who has been poor all her life feels as if she is living in a dream.
Of course, what's more embarrassing is that she really doesn't think it's something to be proud and proud to be the queen of those messy goblins...
All the guardian giants had the same expression after listening: OO? !
Even Salaman was stunned. After a few seconds, the old giant suddenly put on a serious expression and frowned at the men and women standing on the platform: "Do you know what you are talking about? This is not a joke Thing—do you really know what Goddess of Creation means?"
"How can I not know, I have been tossing about this matter for four years," Hao Ren waved his hand, "I have been running around in this universe to find the relics of the Goddess of Creation all these years, and I am still trying to reorganize her creations... ah , I’m digressing now, let’s talk about Vivienne’s identity. I can assure you that what she said is true, and I have witnessed everything with her—when you are isolated on this ancient planet. When you were in the zone, the outside world has undergone unimaginable changes, such as the weakening of the wall of reality, such as a large group of creatures from this universe traveling to other worlds, such as... the goddess of creation once created a divine clone, and This divine avatar is the one standing next to me now. But the biggest headache for me now is how to prove this to you... "
He looked at Vivienne while talking, and lowered his voice at the same time: "Speaking of which, the biggest problem with your identity as the daughter of the goddess is that you still have no proof—why didn't the goddess of creation leave you a revealing identity when she created you?" For example, when you see other guardian giants, you can activate a skill, and then the holy light surrounds the oracle from the sky... "
Vivian squinted at the sky at forty-five degrees: "Your associative ability is too... But then again, what's the use even if the goddess of creation left me this part of the setting? First of all, I'm only two points One is a divine avatar, and the other is that I have lost my memory."
The two were muttering to each other below, but Salaman's eyes became more and more serious. His first reaction was that the two people in front of him were talking nonsense, but his reason told him that no one would joke about such a topic.
This is a discussion of the gods and the survival of the world.
And there is the most important point: this matter involves the deepest secrets, and it is not something that anyone can inquire about. The mortal races in this universe do not know where the "observers" from outside the known world come from. Know
The fact that they can talk about it as a matter of course is pretty self-explanatory.
"There is one thing I need to correct," Salaman said suddenly, "We are indeed blocked in this star area, but this does not mean that we are ignorant of what you said, in fact we are precisely The insiders of all these events, at least most of the truth. The large number of creatures you mentioned crossing the world should be the plan of the Ark of Ugudora Hill. Although I have not personally experienced it, I know that my mother has this plan. ;I also know about the divine avatar you mentioned, and I even know that this avatar has an identity in the Ark of Ugudora Hill... a guide."
Now it was Hao Ren's turn to turn his expression into two circles and a horizontal line: OO? !
Are the guardian giants in front of us witnesses to the goddess of creation's various dying plans? !
So they're here as part of the plan
Hao Ren was in a daze for a moment, and then realized that everything was logical:
Vivienne is the divine avatar of the Goddess of Creation and the guide of the Ark of Ugudora Hill. Her soul stores the star map of the X star cluster, and the deepest part of the X star cluster is the location of the "hub" of the crystal planet. , Salaman and his legion are stationed here, of course they should know a lot...
"The goblins can prove her identity," Hao Ren said seriously. "Vivian once activated the Nakdal crystal. The goblins were there at the time, and they said it was the symbol of the queen."
There was a burst of exclamation and discussion on the bridge: the low voice of the guardian giant was like thunder, and Salaman had to raise his voice to silence everyone: "Silence, silence! You just said that she can activate Nak Dahl crystal?"
"That's right," Hao Ren's heart moved, "Could it be that this is the proof?"
"No, it's not enough to just activate the Nakdar crystal, but we have other methods to verify the identity of the guide..."
