Chapter 1202: Changes in the Celestial City

Views:

Xiaoxue, who is by her side now, is actually not a real existence. Her current state should be just a combination of information—self-consistent, complete and accurate information combined according to certain rules, forming the "Xiaoxue" "Snow" is a phantom that looks the same as the entity, but she still does not exist in this time and space, and all the information needed to form her does not belong to the phantom itself, but she "borrows" it from the current time and space Materials are like borrowing money to buy a car, but when the repayment deadline comes, everything has to be repaid, and for the phantom Xiaoxue beside me, the repayment deadline is the moment when the Void Cataclysm occurs, and the essence of repayment is the weight of her phantom. It is newly decomposed into those information elements that were "borrowed" at the beginning.

But the disintegration of the phantom body will still leave some things, which are her own information produced before the disintegration, that is, all her memories. These memories are not borrowed, but truly belong to the wealth of this phantom body—it can even be said that they are the only thing Xiaoxue really has in this time and space.

After the Void Cataclysm, all the memories and personalities carried by the phantom body will not disappear, but will move forward along the time axis and gradually merge with her body. It seems that according to the two bear children (Xiaoxue and Xiaoxue) Shallow) calculations, this merger will accompany Xiaoxue's entire childhood, and it will be completely completed when she is seventeen years old. At that time, the seventeen-year-old Xiaoxue will become an ultimate? real? Profound meaning? Super bear child, she will have a unique memory: inverted memory. And the specific moment when this part of memory was formed was the moment when she projected her own phantom.

However, this is just a wild kid's guess. What will happen at that time? Even Xiaoxue and Xiaoqian, who have implemented this unexpected plan, don't know. Xiaoxue used a famous saying to make a footnote for her plan: In theory, so.

"I said, you two are really daring." I forcefully stuffed these impossible things into my head, and after tossing them back and forth a few times, I couldn't help poking Xiaoxue's forehead hard. "If you play tricks on yourself on the timeline, you are not afraid to play yourself badly? And if these abnormal memories start to appear from the age of three, will there be any problems? A three-year-old child may not be able to bear the psychological quality... "

Xiaoxue rolled her eyes resentfully: "When I was four years old, I heard sister Lilina tell stories about Little Red Riding Hood and more than forty flower-picking thieves. Which one do you think has the greatest impact on the three views?"

I turned my head and saw Lilina next to me slipping out of the chair. Seeing that she was about to run away, I immediately grabbed the girl by the back collar and lifted it up in the air, dangling it desperately: "You give me a four It’s not good for a 12-year-old girl to say something! You can tell her that Liu Guan Zhang Taoyuan’s three-knot Yi Bao Tang Monk went to the Vatican to learn Buddhist scriptures!”

"Boss... Boss, stop quickly..." Lilina was spinning like a drum washing machine in mid-air, and her voice couldn't catch up. "It's broken... It's going to be broken... Wow! The clothes are going to break!"

Then I heard a thud, and Lilina fell out of her clothes almost naked, and with an exclamation of "I can't get married", the fake loli archbishop turned into a green light and rushed into the room. Staring blankly at the half piece of clothing in his hand, he wondered how it should be unfolded—could the priest's robe be torn because of the weight of more than 30 kilograms? !

This girl's way of escaping is getting better and better! In the next step, she might even be able to run naked!

Xiaoxue turned a blind eye to what was happening in front of her eyes, and continued what I said just now: "The story of Liu Guanzhang and Zhang Taoyuan's three knots protecting Tang Seng to go to the Vatican to learn Buddhist scriptures was told by Qianqian's mother. She said Tang Seng also had a mount called Chitu. I snatched it from Lu Bu when I was passing Hulao pass..."

Me: "..." According to my understanding of Qianqian, she didn't say that she snatched it from Emperor Sui Yang, which means that her history has progressed... How magnificent was Xiaoxue's childhood

"Anyway, I feel more at ease knowing that you can return smoothly after the Void Cataclysm." I rubbed Xiaoxue's hair and said very relieved. Although I don't understand many details, I know this major premise It still makes me happy. Xiaoxue looked over with a smirk: "Dad, you don't think the phantom in front of you and my body are two people, do you?"

I was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly noticed that maybe subconsciously, I really had thought this way involuntarily.

"Before the information is completely returned, there will indeed be an illusion of separation. After all, after the current phantom state dissipates, there is a blank period until my main body grows to seventeen years old, but in the end the phantom It is the ontology, the unified personality, and ultimately the unified memory, the only difference is probably the order of the memories... Well, dad is indeed a cranky person."

I found that when I was talking to Xiaoxue, I was speechless most often: Not only was this girl out of her mind, but she also knew her father too well. I even felt that she knew me better than myself, so He didn't bother to talk to her right now, so he just lay down on the grass and watched the stars with his daughter.

In other words, how long has it been since you have experienced this moment of lying in the courtyard and watching the stars on a quiet night

"By the way, Dad, you stayed at home occasionally when you were young, and you also liked to take me to see the stars like this. You told me about wandering around among these stars in a spaceship, and told me that these stars are basically stars, and we started guessing which stars had planets around them, and which stars were actually dead..."

"Oh, and then?"

"Then you take me on the spaceship and fly over to see who guesses right. You often play tricks. Later I learned that all celestial bodies in the shadow space are man-made and can run around. I didn't even once Guessed it!"

Me: "..." So my daily life in the future is so high energy? !

At noon the next day, the Melovas were seduced... well, the trapping operation was officially launched. The research center repaired the cubic dormant cabin, and in order to ensure that the trans-void signals it sent could be received by the Melovas, Those scientists also equipped it with a more powerful amplification module-of course, the anti-high power is strictly limited to prevent the enemy from becoming alert. This dormant capsule was placed in the colonial giant ship that brought it over at the beginning, and it was driven to the void "white zone" outside the far frontiers of the empire. Along with the colonial giant ship, there were several old-fashioned ships from the Fifth Fleet. escort ship.

Everything was simulated to the most realistic level, and Ke Kekina even restored the two giant holes on the front of the colonial giant ship: the two giant holes that pierced through the entire outer protective layer were killed by Melo while escaping from the shelter. The main guns of the Wa people penetrated, and Ke Kekina restored them to make the illusion that the colonial giant ship and its escort ship had been fleeing here in a hurry after being separated from the large army. In their eyes, all traces of the Empire or any third party that might arouse their vigilance have been erased.

These spaceships disguised as lost troops are likely to never return, at least those escort ships are like this. According to the information obtained before, the Merova people are really worthy of being brought up by the old empire. They are quick, accurate, and violent. After discovering that this decoy fleet should learn the lesson of letting the opponent escape last time, they directly destroyed all the escort ships with heavy artillery, and then began to attack the colonial giant ships to prevent the latter from jumping, so Cocokina He is ready to abandon these spaceships, and he did not keep people on the spaceships—these spaceships are driven by temporary installations of automatic systems. Anyway, we don’t need them to fight, and the simple autopilot function should be enough.

And the most elite space raider force led by sisters Asida-Asidora who set off together with this decoy fleet, this small force is hidden in the colonial giant ship, and the cube Staying in the dormant cabin together, the Melova people never imagined that there would be a group of most defenseless predators in the world hidden in the shabby-looking colonial giant ship fleeing in a hurry. The task of Asida and Asidora is very simple, that is to "throw" the entire enemy fleet into the territory of the empire before the base camp of the Melova people realizes their existence. This is an impossible task for ordinary space raiders, because such a high-speed and large-scale space switching places extremely high requirements on the operator, and the void environment will greatly interfere with this operation, and only Axi Space twins like Sister Da dare to accept such a task. In fact, the operation of "throwing" the Melova fleet will be completed by the poor sisters. As for the other space raiders who set off with the sisters, they basically only undertake the work of enhancing concealment and protection.

We don’t know when the Melovas will be able to take the bait, or even whether they will take the bait. In fact, the entire trapping plan is based on the “establishment of inference”, although there is also actual evidence that the Melovas are not They are not nesting in some unreachable place, but there is no direct evidence to prove that they are really in the empty space outside the far border. In Sandora's words, our plan is to fish with luck. You can't tell whether it's the fish or Isana who will bite the bait, but it doesn't cost much anyway. The spaceships of the Fifth Fleet basically They are all scrapped goods, and the pair of lilies, Asida and Asidora... I won’t say anything, they are a pair of mascots except when they are performing missions, and their existence value in Shadow City is even higher. How about the urban management brigade, instead of watching these poor poor sisters counting rice and cooking in their own shop all day long, it is better to find something for them to do, at least they can eat a few good meals, otherwise they will be hiccups. The smell of preservatives.

And I still remember the promise I made to a certain little doll the night before, that I will take her out to play today, and the destination is the city of heaven, so after sisters Asida set off and finish the work at hand, I will take her to a family. He led a group of cheerful children to this new world mounted in the shadow space.

Of course, if it is said to be out to play, probably only a bunch of happy little guys at home will take it as a down-to-earth game (maybe add the lack of heart and lungs?), I am already infected with work syndrome Well, as long as there is anything related to work within 200 meters of the surrounding area, I will definitely not be able to calm down. I thought about it, and it seems that there is no place in the entire Celestial City that I can concentrate on: that place is currently busy rebuilding !

Our teleportation point is set on the Wall of Angels. This is the most magnificent building in the entire Celestial City, and it is also the building with the fastest restoration progress. In fact, the restoration work here has basically been completed, except for some key equipment that is still being adjusted. , the Wall of Angels has completely restored its former busy operation. As soon as she came out of the portal, Cyndia ran a big circle along the extremely wide and high wall, and then rushed over cheering: "Uncle, uncle! So you also built this kind of temple floating in the sky ah?"

I thought about it, and felt that this child must have thought of my own home: the city of heaven is indeed somewhat similar to the gods, especially more than 90% of the buildings here are shaped like temples or have a bit of mystic atmosphere, and the whole The building complex is floating in the clouds again, this scene is very close to the glorious courtyard.

"Why is she following me?" The little puppet didn't ride on my shoulders this time, but rode on my neck like a big horse, completely occupying all the commanding heights, she whispered softly while shaking her body , "She's not...'s child."

I shook my shoulders: "Many people are lively."

The little puppet kicked me hard: "Isn't every day lively enough? You don't care about that idiot with grass growing on his head and snatching my snacks at noon!"

Following the "green idiot", "pretentious idiot" and "grumbling idiot", Lilina finally got a new title from this little puppet: the idiot with grass on her head. The latter followed by, and when he heard the words of the little puppet, he immediately proudly straightened the funny grass on his head: "You are envious! You don't have this function when you grow up! Can photosynthesis Have you seen it, have you seen it?!"

My sister couldn't help but slapped Lilina on the head, and slapped all the grass: "Okay, it's not a matter of having a long face. This is the first time you have grown strange things from your body. long***… "

Lilina glanced at me resentfully: "Didn't you make tea and drink it in the end?"

I feel that this topic is becoming more and more dangerous and curious, so I quickly stopped.

I looked around and saw a few white figures approaching quickly in the distance. They were Alleria and the others who came to greet us when they sensed that we had entered this space. They didn’t notify her when they came because they wanted to give her a surprise. And further afield, I saw a lot of things that I hadn't seen the last time I was here.

On those suspended platforms and air corridors suspended in the clouds, there have been elemental guards and golem soldiers standing guard on duty. The huge Gunda Colossus is patrolling along the wide sky avenue, a kind of translucence, like some kind of The lavender mana creature of the long-tailed bird walked through the clouds, probably also a unit like a guard. And at each node position of the Angel Wall, the soldiers standing guard are the newborn mysterious Xiling Apostles—I can't tell whether it is the Magic Vanguard or the Arcane Law Enforcer. These two units are no different in my opinion. I haven't remembered my uniform yet.

Compared with the last time I left, this place has become much more angry.

"Your Majesty the Emperor!" Alleria's voice called me back from the emotional gaze, and I turned around to see Odysseus and several senior officers whose names were not named. Tour the Celestial City.

Alleria and the others were of course very surprised by our sudden visit, but before she could say anything, Cyndia suddenly jumped out: "Wow, are you a relative of my uncle? Why are you so shameless?"

... This child still remembers my appearance in the void form, and now she sees the faceless people and thinks they are my relatives. In other words, this guy should be purely making trouble! According to Father God, this guy Cyndia's mind is actually much weaker than that of an adult, so she must be making trouble now!

Alleria was taken aback by the little girl who suddenly popped up in front of her, and the blurred light on her body became brighter and brighter. I immediately pressed Cyndia's head and introduced to her: "Xingchen's Daughter... uh, it's the child of Father God's family, come to stay with us for two days."

"His Royal Highness the Princess of the God Realm?" Alleria had never seen Cyndia before, and suddenly said with some surprise, but other than that, she was not too surprised. It is estimated that she had seen the high-ranking God Clan in the old empire. Not less, the one in front of him is at best a bit of a special status. For the Apostles of Xiling, there is no need to show too much concern about matters that do not involve the specific interests of the empire.

"Uncle, I'm going up there, okay?" Cyndia rolled her eyes, and found that there were things she was interested in in all directions, and immediately pointed to a tall tower emitting a soft glow in the distance. The little puppet immediately echoed: "That's right! Something I haven't seen before, it didn't exist when I came last time!"

"Today I brought the children here to play." I said with a smile to Alleria, who nodded knowingly, waved the accompanying officers to leave, and spread her wings to float beside me: "Then I will come Be a guide. There is a new energy node over there, the buildings nearby have started to operate, and the demand for energy has returned to normal levels, and now we are rebuilding the old multiplier energy supply network."

"It seems that your project progress is quite fast." I looked around and felt that every place was very fresh. There were a lot of things I had never seen before: including buildings and soldiers. It is said that the Celestial City is almost renovated every seven days. The speed is building, and now I have seen it with my own eyes. I reckon that if there is no Aurelia to lead the way, I should have lost my way within two hundred meters from the portal.

"It's not enough. The reconstruction of infrastructure is going smoothly, but large facilities, such as plastic star pools, will take time to fully operate. Now our factories that manufacture various space vehicles and large weapons are operating at less than one-third... "

"Don't talk about these things!!!" Aurelia was interrupted by an impatient puppet just in the middle of her words, "Didn't you agree to rest today?!"

I put my hand on top of my head to block the raindrops of my little fist, and gave Alleria a helpless smile: "Forget it, you can just write it in the report when you go back."

"Acridine!" Little Bubble followed us in a daze, at this moment, he suddenly let out an unexplained cry of joy, and then took out something that made Aurelia stiff all over:

a rope.

"Kite!" Little Bubble happily said a word with a clear meaning, and I slapped my head: This little guy finally came to his senses!

(Well, the Garden of the Dead Forum is recruiting Empire colleagues, although I don’t know when the forum will return to normal... But in case I forget this, let me say it in advance...) RS
