"Sleepy? You are an inorganic life form! Are you running low on energy? Anyway, don't fall asleep now!"
Hearing the crying and shouting coming from outside the store, the owner panicked instantly and shouted at the inorganic clerk who looked very sleepy.
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm really sleepy..."
The clerk's electronic eyes gradually dimmed, and his whole body fell weakly to the ground.
An hour later, the people who had just dealt with the runaway intelligent machines by cutting off power and interfering with signals breathed a sigh of relief, and then they discovered that the sky had suddenly become dark.
Looking up, I saw a mechanically cast planet crashing into this planet! In an instant, gravity was unbalanced and the earth shook!
And on that mechanical planet, an old machine was flashing red light.
… …
"Bugs! So many bugs! Help me! Help me! Ahhh!"
Screams of terror.
“Pah…Pah…”
Eating sounds.
“Hiss! Puff!”
Screeching sounds were accompanied by the sound of flesh being torn apart.
Countless insects attacked a planet. They devoured all the life they saw and produced more of their own kind through devouring.
Billions of insects plundered the entire planet like locusts. Before the insect tide came, this planet was a vibrant green planet, where plants and life lived in harmony. This was once a "holy land" that some planets with severely polluted environments hoped for. After the insect tide came, all life on this planet, whether animals or plants, will become "part" of the insect tide in another form...
"Click..."
The huge mouthparts crushed the bones and then sent them into the mouth full of sharp teeth.
"Guuuuuu!"
"puff!"
After absorbing all the nutrients in its mouth, new life was born from its body...
Chapter 56 "Tactical Change"
The war... started just like that, beyond everyone's expectations.
Originally, most people including the company, the Xianzhou Alliance, and even Winder thought that the only enemies were the Antimatter Corps under [Destruction] and the Extinction Lords. No matter how bad the outcome was, the people from the Extinction Gang were just trying to take advantage of the situation.
But now, the war situation is beyond everyone's expectations. The Zerg, which disappeared for countless epochs, has made a comeback. The anti-organic equation that once frightened countless organic life forms has reappeared in the universe! Although most inorganic life forms that can think independently have not been coerced by the anti-organic equation under the control of the king of the screw star, the member of the genius club, screw Gumm, some AIs that only operate according to the program were quickly controlled by the anti-organic equation and launched an attack on all organic life within the range!
The combination of the three disasters plunged all forces into confusion. Even the Lords of Extinction themselves could not figure out what was happening.
But if that's the case, why not let [destruction] come faster
At present, the Zerg and the Omnics are still in the most marginal star field. The threat to the central galaxy, that is, the galaxy near the company, is not too great. The pace of the antimatter legion seems to be a bit slow. A system day ago, they did not make any movement, and no planets suddenly broke away from the star track. Maybe they want to wait for the progress of the other two parties, or they have other intentions. But these are not important. The important thing is how to resist the three forces that are about to attack!
As the most influential group in the universe, the Interstellar Peace Company took the lead in forming a resistance front. All forces affiliated with and friendly to the company have joined this front, including the Star Train and the Immortal Boat Alliance.
The main purpose of forming the battle line is to protect all planets from harm and to quickly assess the catastrophe that is about to sweep the entire universe!
It can be said that this disaster is the largest and most complex disaster in recorded history. No one knows why these three forces suddenly appeared and launched indiscriminate attacks on the entire universe.
In the company's records, there have been many wars involving the entire universe, but this time is extremely special... because among the new enemies, there are many "old" faces.
… …
"Rupert? Wasn't he killed by Polka Kakamu? How could he appear again? And wasn't the anti-organic equation cracked long ago? Why did he appear again?"
Heita frowned and looked at Screw Gumm beside him with confusion.
"The Anti-Organic Equation was indeed cracked, but it was essentially terminated with the death of Emperor Rupert. It cannot be considered completely cracked."
ScrewGum shook his head seriously. He had always been committed to breaking down the barriers between organic and inorganic life. But now, a new "Rupert III" might have been born. Although he had not received any information that conscious inorganic life had begun to attack organic life, sometimes intelligent machines would also be considered inorganic life.
In fact, a life without self-awareness that only obeys orders is not life at all, but this will make all his previous efforts go to waste. Of course, this is not important now.
"The anti-organic equation should not have much impact on existing inorganic life. If Rupert III really appears... Conclusion: We should destroy it immediately."
"But the current problem is not just the appearance of Rupert III, there are more troublesome things..."
Ruan Mei shook her head. Although it was just a projection, her eyes were looking out the porthole of the Black Tower Space Station.
"That group of bugs... Why are they coming back again? After losing the gods, they should have disappeared from the universe long ago..."
"Forget it, let's not think about it anymore. Let's first perfect the follow-up matters of the simulated universe. We may be able to simulate the current situation directly through the simulated universe and make real-time changes to see if we can reversely infer. Although the previous data is strange, it seems that there is no data that is more realistic than these. Let's just leave it at that."
… …
"Boss, the company has sent us a new batch of equipment. Our current configuration is more than ten times better than the previous Punk Lord! They are really willing to spend a lot of money!"
Jack looked at the newly arrived batch of interstellar communication equipment with an expression as if he was about to fall into the eyes of money.
"Don't be silly here. Don't you understand what the company means? It seems that they want to use Punklord as a relay station in the universe..."
Wei'er, who had seen through the company's intentions, shook her head silently. But it was okay this way. After all, in the past... the company also used this place as a relay station.
"Let the hackers strengthen network supervision and build a strong firewall. The people from the Knowledge Society will work with us to guard this network defense line. After all, the enemy is likely to be the legendary Emperor Rupert... If he is allowed to attack along the network, all the planets under the company's credit system will suffer..."
Looking at Jack who was running to work, Weir shook her head helplessly. This guy was about to become the military minister of Punklord, why was he still so out of touch
Turning her attention back to the screen in front of her, Weir's golden eyes turned red again. At the same time, dozens of large satellites and signal transmission devices in Punklord's low-ground orbit began to connect with the company's network under Weir's control.
… …
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, is it getting lively? But I still advise you not to act rashly. The last time you acted on those scumbags, you directly attracted the attention of a certain mechanical brain. What if next time you attract the attention of the harmonious Hippie, be careful that she will come and swallow you up directly."
Long looked at the hesitant Winder and tried to persuade him half-jokingly.
"Why are you so afraid that I'll be discovered? And that I'll be swallowed up by Shipe? Wasn't that just Taichi pretending before?"
Winder rubbed his swollen brows and asked Long.
"These are two questions. Which one do you want me to answer? Forget it, I'll tell you both."
"If you are discovered, then some guy who likes to play with the balance will do something for His balance, and I will be exposed as well. If I am exposed... You know the value of Immortality. This is also to protect you."
"The second question is, you won't be swallowed up by Xi Pei. Although Star Gods have no gender, it shouldn't be a problem for the two of you to try to create a baby Star God."
When Long said the second point, Winder almost saw the person behind the light screen... Oh, that god, almost obscene expression.
Winder felt more and more that the dragon behind the light screen must be a dishonest guy!
"Why do you have that expression? If you ask me, don't underestimate the lives in the universe. These disasters are just the most normal experiences for them. You should focus on how to end this disaster. If you can absorb the concept of [Destruction], then you don't have to be so sneaky anymore."
"… "
"Do you feel like your words are like the demon in some cheesy story, luring people step by step into the abyss?"
Winder complained silently at Long's words.
"Really? I think that's normal. How can you hear emotions from a sentence? Forget it. Anyway, you should not underestimate the lives that survive in this starry sky. They are stronger than you think."
"… "
Is this really the case
This idea suddenly emerged in Winder's mind, but he then shook it out of his mind.
Was he... such a saint before? Why did he feel like stepping forward? Was this the legendary saying that with great power comes great responsibility
"… Have I not visited them for too long? Why have I been so distracted recently… Is it because I was too busy starting my company?"
After calming down his chaotic thoughts, Winder decided to take a look at what Wendy and the others were doing...
Winder used his eyes to go directly to Beloberg and spy on the movements of the four little ones. He found that they were having a party in Krippenburg. After listening carefully, he realized that Wendy had successfully used the power of the Herrscher of the Wind to clear an ice-free territory for Beloberg that was large enough for Beloberg to expand ten times outward. In addition, the cold wave on the entire planet was weakened by more than 40% under Wendy's great influence. Although many antimatter legions outside Beloberg have leaked out of the ice, it seems that they have been frozen in ice for so long, so it should be possible to solve it with the power of the Iron Guards, right
Winder turned his attention to the Starry Sky Train again. Kanxing posted on WeChat Moments that she was returning to the Starry Sky Train from the Black Tower today, so he came to see how she and Sanyue were doing.
So, as soon as Winder turned his view back to the Star Train, he saw this scene.
Jian Xing held Kafka's hand and told her about her experience of [development] very gently like a good girl. What kind of expression was that...
Let’s just say that Winder has never seen Xing... Um, he hasn’t seen Xing look like this since the Immortal Boat. I don’t know why, but why does my mouth feel a little sour
Look at March again, oh my goodness... March seemed like he hadn't slept for several days. He had returned to his room and was sleeping soundly. Wind chose to close his eyes and then sighed helplessly.
Wendy and the three kids were enjoying a celebration banquet on the Beloberg. Xing was chatting with her mother Kafka, but it seemed that Jizi was still thinking about how to pour coffee into Kafka's mouth. Sanyue would not wake up after sleeping for a whole day and night... Suddenly I felt so bored... How about going to find Tingyun? No, Tingyun is also very busy now. What about Jingliu... Forget it, he should not go to find Jingliu alone. For the two of them now, each other can be considered a "dangerous" existence.
"Oh, everyone is busy... busy... busy..."
Recalling the advertising slogans on Earth, Winder put his hands behind his back and sighed.
"I say, you don't look very old, what's wrong? Are you an old man here? Or are all the people who run your company like this?"
The silver wolf appeared behind Winddian at some point, looking at the melancholy Winddian with his eyebrows slightly raised, blowing bubble gum in his mouth, looking very nonchalant.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
Hearing Silver Wolf's puzzled voice behind him, Winder turned around with a little surprise and looked at Silver Wolf.
"Come on, it's lunch time now, and the network security issues over there have been taken over by Punk Lord's people. What am I doing there? Being their teacher? I don't have the time for that."
"The most important thing is that no one knows where you hid your game base station and team. Is there anything on this planet that is worth protecting with a professional network security force?"
“Not now, but we can’t live without them here.”
Winder shrugged with a smile, then took out his cell phone to check the time. It was indeed noon.
"Since it's noon, do you want to have lunch together?"
Winder invited Silver Wolf.
"Has anyone ever told me that you look like a bad uncle who's kidnapping kids?"
After quietly closing the failed game, Silver Wolf looked speechlessly at Winder who looked foolish in front of him. Could this kind of person really be the key that Elio mentioned
"But... did you make lunch?"
"certainly."
Winder smiled and nodded.
"Oh! So what are you waiting for? Let's go! Don't let Kafka know!"
As soon as it heard that there was food to eat, the hair on the silver wolf's head stood up instantly, like a radar searching for some signal.
Because she had eaten meals cooked by Winder twice before at the Black Tower Space Station and the Immortal Boat, she had a very good impression of Winder. Of course, it would be even better if he could cook for her often!
"Well, let's go. I'll show you my skills in the cafeteria."
Looking at the inexplicably excited Silver Wolf, Winder seemed to see Dianxing and March... Well, actually, it wasn't much of a past, it was just that the two of them couldn't eat now.
Kafka, who was chatting happily with her "daughter" on the Starry Sky Train, did not notice the fact that she had been tactically replaced. Then Xing proposed to show Kafka some of his skills, and noted that he had received Winder's true teachings!
So, with Kafka's gentle smile and Jizi's sympathetic eyes, Xing walked into the kitchen of the Starry Sky Train alone...
"Um… "
Ji Zi tapped the coffee table beside her with her slender fingers. Should she remind Miss Kafka in front of her... about her beloved daughter who likes to cook with soy milk
Chapter 57 Meeting
"Hey? You're back so soon? I thought you were going to spend a few days with her before coming back. What's wrong? You don't look very well. Let me guess, did you drink Miss Himeko's coffee? It's incredible. How did you survive?"
Silver Wolf opened her mouth and looked at Kafka, whose face was dark, in surprise. Most of her guesses were correct, but unfortunately, she was not lucky enough to taste Ji Zi's coffee. However, the bean juice dish made by Xing...
Forget it, let’s not think about it. This was the first time she, who had never known what fear was, felt resistance to something... She didn’t even dare to imagine whether Himeko Coffee, which was said to be more effective than soybean milk dishes, could bring her the feeling called “fear”... If that was the case, it seemed like it wouldn’t be a problem to give it a try
"Isn't it because I miss our dear little wolf? After not seeing him for a day, he looks much better, and his stomach seems to be a little bloated. Could it be..."
Kafka smiled and leaned close to Silver Wolf's cheek, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.
"Kouyi! What are you doing? You're acting like a nympho!"
Seeing what Kafka did, Silver Wolf stepped back in disgust, looking at Kafka with a wary look as she seemed to be savoring the scent on his body.
"Hmm... This faint smell of medicinal herbs and the very fragrant smell of cooking... It's that Wend, right?"
Kafka opened her eyes and frowned, looking at Silver Wolf with a very sad look, as if she had caught evidence of a cheating man...
"Can you please stop posing like that? It's really contrived and disgusting."
