Rector joined.
That day, he first went back to the Sanctuary of Stars to pack his things, and Opal finally saw Recht's entire belongings - a simple wooden bed, placed in a small room after the transformation of Times VI, a knight's sword for practice and a wooden bed. A shield, a few changes of clothes, a small box of stones for apprentice training, a pair of wooden shoes.
The entire property of 2.8 million credit points, credit evaluation is the source of floodlight.
An opal gave him a bracelet that he always wears on his hand, and a silver bracelet in a small box—Dragon Ray.
What Rector's joining means that others don't know, but Opal is very clear.
First of all, King's Wharf once again had a patron saint 6300 years after the death of Horius. Although most adventurers do not know that the Knights of the Stars joined the Great Astronautical Association, Rector will not sit back and watch the possibility. everything that happened.
Secondly, the addition of Rickett made Opal believe that he can do almost everything in the universe. Rector's existence is unparalleled by anyone. He symbolizes confidence and strength. It is a spontaneous belief in strong beliefs in Opal's youth. The experience when he was still on the mining star left him with deep-rooted beliefs. Impression - Rector will never lose.
Even after encountering the more powerful Cororin and defeating him more than once in the fight against Rector, Opal still chose to ignore the few fights where Rector was at a disadvantage, and always It is the insistence that Recht is stronger than Cororin.
In contrast, his confidence in Cororin was not as unreserved as he was in Rector. He began to understand why Coroline had for a time regarded Rector as his belief, and when it was Opal's turn, he did the same, worshipping Rector unreservedly. The source of this belief was also manifested in Raymond, so based on this, they decided to name the new brigade—
—Rector Adventure Brigade.
Rector: "… "
"The teacher is our soul," Raymond said.
"Well." Opal said: "A totem."
Rickett said: "Opal, Raymond, this is not a joke, if you report this name, the teacher will have to leave the group immediately."
"What's so embarrassing about this!" Raymond said angrily.
Opal said: "That's it!"
Rickett angrily said, "Absolutely not!"
Opal said: "Then... the Star Knight Adventure Brigade?"
Rector: "… "
Raymond said: "This name is good, we have two star knights."
Lecter: "Forgive me... What was the name of your former mercenary group? Can't you change it to a normal one?"
Opal: "Our former name..."
Raymond: "Let's not talk about it."
Rickett said: "Strictly speaking, Opal and I are not Star Knights anymore. Of course, Raymond, although you inherited some of the characteristics of Cororin, can't be called Star Knights completely."
Opal didn't expect Lecter to explain this question in a serious way. He was stunned at first, and then said, "Why? Is it because there is no ancient god?"
Rickett nodded and got up to buy a drink.
Opal said: "But you said that Horius almost never uses saber-toothed tigers, and he is also a star knight."
Rickett's actions paused, and after a long time said: "You are right, Opal, I am too stubborn."
Raymond said, "So that's the name?"
Opal said: "The Star Knight Adventure Brigade is full of domineering and shocking power at first sight! Say this name, and our enemy will surely surrender without a fight!"
Recht: "Okay, okay... Stop, this name is not bad. My original intention was to commemorate Horius. After all, he is the human being I admire the most."
Raymond happily went to declare the brigade, while Opal sat on the sofa with Lecter shoulder to shoulder.
Rickett took a sip of coffee and joked: "You better restrain yourself, I don't want to be regarded as a rival in love by Raymond."
Opal said: "He won't, don't worry. Teacher, you are actually Horius' guide. I think you think highly of him."
Rector thought thoughtfully, "Because he's dead."
Opal read Recht's mood at this time. The mood is very complicated. It involves the evaluation of a person. Even Recht himself can't explain it clearly. However, Opal only invaded his spiritual world for a few seconds. , Rickett closed his thoughts and tapped Opal's forehead, meaning don't be too presumptuous.
Opal laughed.
Raymond received the team medal and said, "We are the sixth batch to declare the brigade system, and many people are still watching."
"It's normal." Recht took over the three adventurers' manuals and checked them one by one in the lounge. Both Opal and Recht were apprentice adventurers, and Raymond was already official, and he was the leader of the group. .
Recht pinned a medal to his chest and said, "What to do next, the regiment commander has the final say."
Raymond pondered for a moment, and then said: "Now it's time to inquire about the news. Let's spend money to find channels and share the commission of Opal. I feel that there is a series of very complicated things behind this."
Rector nodded slowly, looked at Opal's shared commission, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this commission is related to many things, and this matter has gradually surfaced. Natasha also commissioned me Investigate about pirates."
"First of all, Alex and Baroque are both candidates for the heir to the empire in the near future. Secondly, Marshal Rotman and Queen Inni both support Alex, while Baroque is alone and only a few dukes are in Supporting him seems to have no chance of winning."
Raymond said: "It seems that there is no chance of winning, but I'm afraid it may not actually be."
Rector nodded slowly, and Opal said, "The Pope is supporting him behind his back, like Uncle Justin and the shepherds. I guess they came to connect with Baroque."
Rickett said: "From what I know about him, Baroque is not what he sees on the surface."
Raymond's eyebrows moved, and he asked, "He is usually so carefree, and he pretends to have the same personality as Opal?"
Opal: "Hey!"
Raymond smiled and signaled it was over, Rickett smiled and said: "Baroque is actually a very stable person, as can be seen from his playing atom pool, although he acts informally... No, he just deliberately created An informal image. I'm sure if he becomes the heir, he might do well."
"But we haven't touched Alex either," Opal said. "Maybe he's doing better than Baroque?"
Rickett applauded: "You are right, I rarely pay attention to the empire, so I think we may find an opportunity to chat with Alex face-to-face, and the next task will be based on this."
Raymond said: "Cololin also gave me another commission, which is to find the wheel of time and the father of Opal."
Opal said: "I'll do it myself first, and I'll meet up after I get the information."
The news of the Great Astronautical Association was in charge, and the three went to the Lion Galaxy Hall, the Unknown Field Office and the surrounding galaxy halls separately. Opal has opened the VIP search service in this hall, and the handling fee is 100,000 credit points. This permission is valid within one year, and the information he wants can be retrieved at any time, which was unconditional in the past, and now there are It's a few million dollars, and it's obviously a good deal to spend 100,000 to buy a news retrieval right.
Keywords: Wheel of Time.
The information list is densely packed with a long series of historical events, which can only be viewed in the association, and are not allowed to be copied. Most of them are the mission of the wheel of time, the departure event, and the content that they carry when they return.
In the past 20,000 years, this interstellar exploration ship, known as the future of mankind, has set off three times and returned twice. The first time was in the year 3401 of the Light Era, when the wheel of time brought together all the science and technology of the entire interstellar community and marched toward the unknown limit beyond the horizon.
This exploration ship is not as big as Opal imagined, with a total length of only 0.6 kilometers, and can accommodate thirty-six small combat ships. The combat ships were provided by the Lion Star Autonomous Prefecture and adopted the latest model of the Lion Star Guard Army at that time: Age IV.
The mothership can accommodate 400 people and is decorated with simulated environment technology, like a small independent planet to avoid mental problems during long voyages.
ACU Biogenetics provided dormant shift technology, as well as dispatched fourteen employees, one hundred and twenty medical robots…
Opal was dazzled, and it took nearly an afternoon to read the news of the wheel of time in the past, and when it returned for the first time, it brought back the phantom race.
The Science United Association was full of curiosity about this unknown race. However, under the circumstances at that time, a conflict broke out between the Holy See of the Stars and the United Science Association. The captain of Wheel of Time I resigned after the meeting and converted to the Holy See of the Stars.
The phantoms managed to establish their homeland with the help of the Pope and refused to deal with the Science United Society.
why is that
Opal retrieves the secondary classification, which is a self-report of the great lord of the phantoms: We need technical help, and after the successful teleportation of the distant stars, we will settle down in this universe. Humans judge existence by the presence or absence of four-dimensional continuity, and we are not.
Opal frowned and looked down. These are precious materials that can only be read within the Great Astronautical Association. The 100,000 credit points are really worth it.
In the year 3790 of the Light Era, the Wheel of Time II set off again, and the Scientific Research Association split, and some scientists drove the old Wheel of Time to leave the galaxy.
The following is the information of an adventurer: The list of scholars who have left the scientific research organization is as follows: (a long list of names)
Opal reluctantly read it at first, but then became more and more irritable, almost vomited, impatiently pulled the progress bar to the end, and discovered one thing—these scholars were all the participants who had listened to the captain’s report.
What does this mean? Opal was a little confused, because what news did the captain bring back, so they left collectively? What will divide the research organization
The captain died nearly a hundred years later.
And where did these scientists go? !
Wheel of Time II set off and returned for the second time just after the end of the Dark Ages. At that time, more than 90% of the planets in the universe were in ruins. According to the black box on the Wheel of Time, science and technology were once again in all civilizations. spread in. This time, the exploration ship did not bring back anything worth looking forward to. The interstellar community and the scientific joint organization disintegrated. Even the Holy See of Stars produced great chaos.
The third wheel of time exploration was not officially supported, and volunteers formed a new expedition with the resources and technical staff at hand.
Opal checked the crew list for the third departure, and the position of captain was "vacant".
And he turned down again, and finally saw the name - Logan.
Logan: Graduated from the Arc Nation Mission School, he liked to explore since he was a child. During his school days, he was excellent in many subjects and was rated as an outstanding graduate. He was born in the Monks and Soldiers Province.
Opal: "… "
Adventurer's comment: Logan liked to read the materials of the Holy See of the Stars when he was young. Before the Dark Ages, he set off with Wheel of Time II. After returning, he organized his own expedition team.
Logan is a big boy full of curiosity about the universe. He was approved to enter the Holy See, the library of the prophet.
Father is from Monk Bing Province? A feeling of "this world is too unreal" surged in Opal's heart, that is to say, he has at least one-half of the blood of monks and soldiers? !
But he felt that he didn't look like him. Opal searched Logan again and found that his grandfather and others were actually a big family at the time. Logan was the youngest son in the family, and Logan's mother was a female Luoxing. … Opal has a quarter of Sangha province blood.
Of course, this family has completely perished because of the relationship of the replicators. With the big and small wars that broke out in the smart revolution, countless cities and families were destroyed by the war.
Opal stared blankly at the information, and behind him, Raymond whispered in his ear: "What did you find?"
Opal sighed and said, "I found a lot, but my grandparents and grandparents are all dead."
Raymond quietly stared at the long list. After each name, there was a line of remarks: Died of Wisdom Revolution.
Opal once did not understand the horror of replicators. However, when he faced all this, he had to admit that Rickett was right. All forces in the universe regarded replicators as monstrous beasts, which was not an exaggeration.
Raymond said, "I'm sorry, Opal."
Opal said: "Don't be stupid, it has nothing to do with you."
Raymond put his arms around Opal's waist from behind and snuggled on his shoulders, and the two looked at the history of the past. Opal said, "How about you? Did you find anything?"
Raymond said: "Yes, very important content. Let's go back and discuss with the teacher first."
Opal closed the search, and at the central cafeteria, he turned with Recht, who saw that Opal looked a little wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Raymond said with a smile: "Opal is from the Monks and Soldiers Province."
Opal smiled reluctantly, and Rickett nodded: "When I first saw him, I thought he was very handsome, with the temperament of a handsome man, but without their shortcomings. Where is your mother from?"
Opal said: "I don't know what her name is, maybe it's from the Sphinx, because I used to be a bit dark."
The three began to exchange information, and Recht said: "The information I got is about the reappearance of the pirate king Sauron. Five years ago, he intended to win over Cororin to join forces, but Cororin did not accept it, and his comeback was related to the It is related to a certain force in the empire. This force needs to use him to balance the political interests on multiple surrounding planets to ensure that when something happens, it will not have too much impact on the empire. Preliminary estimates, people who are allied with Sauron It's the Imperial Marshal, Rotman."
Opal: "!!!"
Raymond was also a little stunned. He glanced at Opal, then fell silent for a long time, and said, "Yes, there is a possibility that Sauron appeared on the White Falcon Star, which means that he has a deal with the Empire."
Opal said: "I also remember one thing, it is about the shepherd..."
Opal informed Lecter and Raymond of what the shepherd said to him, and added: "The Pope also knew about it, and he asked the shepherd to go to the White Falcon Star to warn Sauron not to participate in any randomness. Trouble, and also said that Zoro knew the whereabouts of a person, but he didn't tell me who this person was."
Recht said: "Then this matter is understandable. The Pope must always pay attention to the progress of this matter... He may really support the Baroque side."
Rickett looked at Raymond inquiringly, and Opal said, "My father's background has a lot to do with the Holy See."
Recht corrected: "It is not related to the Holy See, but to the Pope."
Opal said: "No, no, the original Pope is dead, at least he has been replaced several times. My father stayed in the prophet's library for a while, and there must be books he has read and written. Record… "
Rickett said: "No, Opal, let me tell you one thing now, the Pope is truly immortal."
Opal: "… "
Raymond seemed to have known about this and was not surprised at all.
"Everyone dies, but the Pope doesn't seem to. It can be said that Drummond has been the same person since the day he became the first Pope, and it is only his body that dies, and his soul is said to have died," Rector said. , can be passed in the shells of different fetuses, the human body is just a container for him, so I think he should retain memories for tens of thousands of years."
Opal said: "I have to see him, he must know something."
Recht seems to be caught in a dilemma.
"To be honest, Opal." Raymond said: "We have discussed this issue just now. The teacher had a conflict with the Pope last time, and it is not suitable for me to come forward to see him, and I..."
Opal recalled the battle between Recht and Ledgerson against Cororin five years ago. Pope Drummon seemed to be on the side of Cororin. Not only did he not help Ledgerson, but he also joined Kolo in turn. Lin, played them both once.
This may be attributed to the contradictory statement between the Pope and Ledgerson, and at this time, it is not suitable for Recht to meet him rashly. Raymond is also not suitable, after all, his identity is too sensitive.
When Rector raised his eyes, he was meeting Opal's gaze, and both of them were stunned.
"I can only go." Opal said, "He made a request to Teacher Cororin to exchange disciples a long time ago."
Raymond said: "But you didn't have Cororin's instructions."
Opal said: "He asked us to investigate the wheel of time, right? Now the clue we get is to go to the Holy See, so this is not against his original intention."
"I've only dealt with Drummon once, in the dark ages, when he was a very young kid, about ten years old," Recht said.
Opal said, "What did he tell you?"
Recht said: "Nolan was there at the time. I was just Nolan's deputy, and I was not qualified to speak to him. He communicated with Nolan through consciousness, so... I don't know what they said."
Opal didn't expect Drummond's qualifications to be higher than that of Rector, and he asked again, "Where did the Pope learn the method of immortality?"
Rickett shook his head slowly and said: "This is also a secret, only very few people know that the Holy See claims that the way they select the Pope is through the guidance of the stars, and this guidance is never announced, but as long as the archbishops obey He, the whole church will function under his spirit."
Raymond said: "That is to say, the Pope itself does not have much real power."
Rickett was a bit hard to say. He thought about it for a long time and finally said: "This is something beyond my knowledge. I think it's better for me to see him."
Opal said: "No, I don't think it's appropriate for you to go. After all, it's about my father. I have to go by myself. Let me go, teacher."
Raymond said: "Or as we agreed, teacher, you go to investigate the seventeen planetary provinces where Alex is located, and trace the whereabouts of Sauron. I will act as Opal's escort to the Holy See of the Stars."
Opal said: "Can you show your face in front of the Pope?"
Raymond said: "After all, no one in the Holy See has seen Cororin."
Opal said: "Yes, there is a person named Ramos, he and Cororin met."
Raymond: "I just checked the information, and Ramos is now staying in the Grip of Rotation. As the foreign minister of both parties, he preaches to the residents of Iszur. The shepherd also went to the Grip of Rotation, but Cororin didn't. there."
Opal licked his lips, and Recht said: "As a disciple of Cororin, I can get more information from Pope Drummond, but I know almost nothing about him. Still have to be careful.”
Raymond said: "Well, as I said before, I will send you a communication when there is a situation."
Rickett said: "Let me think about it again..."
At this moment, Recht's communication rang.
He opened the communication in front of Opal and Raymond, projected a figure of a person, and said to him, "Richter, you don't have to go back to the club for the time being."
Rickett said, "What's wrong? I was about to take a long vacation."
"Next year's friendly match has been postponed indefinitely," the person in charge said.
Rickett said: "Old friend, don't you have any other words to reveal?"
The person in charge was silent for a moment, and then said: "You pay attention to the recent news, Mr. Kashi Telan is afraid, the empire is likely to use the old method of the Golden Road to create some trouble."
Rickett's expression suddenly turned serious.
The person in charge said: "When the game is played, it will be notified at that time."
The communication was closed, and Opal said: "What does the old method of the golden road mean?"
Rickett said: "To start a war, I guess most of them will put the hijacking of the mercenaries on the Republic. It's strange, this time is obviously not suitable for war, what do you want to do? Can't delay any longer, I have to Immediately go to the sub-star system."
Raymond said, "Let's go to the Holy See."
Rickett considered it again and again, took out a silver bracelet, and handed it to Raymond.
"When there is a critical situation, Raymond, you can use it with full authority, and the dragon rays will protect you." Recter said.
Opal roared sadly: "Why don't you give it to me! I also want to use dragon rays!"
