(Ask for a monthly ticket! Although I don’t know if it’s useful, it’s definitely right to just ask for it!)
There is only deep darkness here.
Everything is born in the dark.
However, "darkness" is not enough to describe everything in front of you, and even in this place, the word "in front of you" does not exist.
If a place mixes all the information together to form a sea of chaos that cannot be perceived and described in any way, then this sea of chaos has two extremes at the same time.
It is extremely rich and contains everything. The information you can describe and the information you cannot describe are all undulating in this ocean. If you have enough knowledge and power, you can combine everything from this ocean of chaos, even the world. , even the gods.
It is also extremely empty - because everything here is in a state that cannot be accepted by conventional logic and senses, any information rooted in the real world cannot describe the essence of the sea of chaos, if there is something that you cannot perceive at all , then for you, this thing does not exist. In this sea of chaos, all mortal creatures are blind and deaf - if unable to grasp the truth.
This is the void, the place I "see" at the first sight when I wake up from the muddle.
People who haven't had a deep understanding of the void usually guess that it is a dark vacuum area, because they can't feel anything, so it is normal to have such an illusion. However, this description is far from the truth. The word "darkness" itself is a word created by human beings to describe a specific phenomenon in the world. For true absolute nothingness, something that can be described as "darkness" should not exist. Similarly, "vacuum" is just an illusion created by mortals due to the limit of their senses.
In fact, the void is colorless, it is not filled with light, but it is not dark at all, it does not have any matter, but there is absolutely no vacuum. It's just that it has surpassed the sensory logic of ordinary creatures. In the illusion, people call this place a dark and cold vacuum territory. However, if you can have another kind of vision—I mean a kind of perception similar to vision, which can distinguish order from chaos, then the void will show a magnificent side.
As I see it now. It is gently undulating, like an endless ocean, and the undulations of this piece of ocean are very gentle, indicating that we are passing through a place where the concentration of the universe is very low: it may only be within a few million units of information offset. There are several universes that can be counted, so this place can be so peaceful. Comparing the blurred empire territory map in my memory, I roughly judged that the fleet should have crossed one-third of the area of the macro world: this is the only "quiet" place in the macro world network. For unknown reasons, the probability of a universe being born in this area of the void is very low.
I remember that I was in the lounge of the Admiral of the Empire before, and the fleet left the shadow space for less than a few minutes when I just fell asleep, which means that I suddenly entered this void roaming state after sleeping for a while.
It's not the first time I've entered this state, so I don't feel any panic now, but I just feel a little baffled, and I don't know why I suddenly "sleepwalk". This kind of void roaming, which Sheila dubbed "walking", is a unique ability of void creatures. By liberating your own essence and reclaiming the perceptual skills that were in the cradle, you can become one with the origin of all things. At the same time, this is the only way to see the "ocean surface" as an observer. As I mentioned just now, if there is another kind of vision, you can see the magnificent side of the void—there are only three "people" with this kind of vision, and I guess I can only count as half of them...
Because I have only initially mastered the method of actively entering the void roaming state, and I have tried several times when I was idle before, using the void roaming method to "meet" with Xing Chen and Sheila, but the success rate has always remained at About sixty to seventy percent, sometimes in a bad state, I can put myself to sleep and can't enter the void, so I say that I can only be regarded as half a "person" who has mastered the superclass perspective. But in any case, it was a very good experience overall. Although it cannot be described in words that humans can understand, it feels... quite relaxing. Of course, I have also accidentally entered the state of "returning to the void", just like now, because I followed the fleet to perform super long-distance void jumps, and because I happened to be out of the sky, I might enter the state of wandering, but this time … I don’t know if I’m worrying too much, I always feel that something is not right.
I haven't used the void ability when I'm sleeping, so I lack the prerequisites to enter the wandering state, and I'm usually quite dead when I sleep. To put it bluntly, I'm like a vegetable when I sleep, wandering into the sky The probability of Hu Meng being reversed is very low, and this does not meet the usual conditions of "returning to the void" by accident. I feel like I fell into it suddenly, or something pulled me...
And vaguely, I remembered what voice I had heard before in a daze.
It was the voice of a person speaking, no male or female, no joy or sorrow, he mentioned a door—then there was no more.
Nima, I have obsessive-compulsive disorder!
Well, let’s not mention what the unfinished voice didn’t finish. Looking back now, it was another communication without beginning and end. This makes people think of the voice that has been heard several times before. I suspect This is again those bridge-building paranoiacs on the other side of the abyss who are tirelessly trying to talk to themselves. Then maybe this time, my inexplicable entry into the void roaming state is also related to their sudden connection. According to the rigorous argumentation of Tavier and a group of scientists from the empire—in fact, I think it is basically a wild guess, because they have no way to check the souls of void creatures—they think that when I occasionally establish contact with the other side of the abyss, I am in a kind of situation. The state of the soul that is hyperactive and barely bound by the real world. In this extremely active situation, and just following the fleet through the void, it might have entered this wandering state.
You see, even if Sandora is not by my side, my analytical ability is quite enough.
I drifted aimlessly in this chaotic and undulating ocean, and drifted comfortably and comfortably, watching the slowly turbulent sea of void around me with a mentality of coming and going, perhaps because I entered the "return to the void" " state, the inertia of void creatures is also unprecedentedly obvious at this moment. I know I'm on a long-distance raid, and I know I'm about to get my brains out with an old foe, but right now... there's no sense of urgency.
Because the sense of urgency is unnecessary, in the state of wandering in the void, the time scale is not synchronized with the outside world.
"You look relaxed."
A voice suddenly came again, this time very clearly, but still unidentifiable male and female.
I finally woke up from the lazy state of inertia, looked around blankly - and then remembered that I have no eyes now, so I concentrated and began to perceive everything in this sea of emptiness. Everything is peaceful, nothing exists, the owner of that voice is not here, he may come from a far away place... Maybe even crossed the border of the empire, my intuition told me so.
It wasn't the voice of Xing Chen, nor Sheila. In the void, a fourth person appeared
"Are you looking for me? It's a pity that I'm far away from you, and there's more than just distance between us." The voice didn't disappear like the usual endless communications, and this time he actually picked it up go down!
I was shocked when I heard this, what does this mean? This shows that the communication has basically been established stably! This shows that the two of us have been able to communicate normally! This shows that the conversation on both sides has progressed from passing notes to WeChat level!
Of course, it's meaningless to worry about what it means now, I have to prevent the other party from hanging up suddenly again. So I quickly sorted out my thoughts, and I replied in a bit of disbelief: "You guys came from... the other side of the chaotic sea?"
"... It seems that I have misunderstood, but... for the time being, I will not answer any questions for you." The voice paused, because I couldn't hear the other party's feelings, and I had no way of guessing what kind of expression the owner of the voice had when replying. , which is undoubtedly an unfavorable situation in this kind of tentative conversation between the two sides. Of course, there is also an advantage. Even if the other party can see me, he will definitely not be able to see my expression: For the first time, I feel that it is good to have no face in the void form...
"... are you cautious?" I didn't quite understand what the misunderstanding the other party was talking about, but the other party seemed to be cautious and unwilling to reveal anything, so I changed the subject, "Okay, let's talk about something else, okay? It's easy to talk. Do you have something to do with me?"
"I just want to confirm something, to see if you are as reliable as the calculation results." The voice said more and more nonsensical, and now ta has not mentioned a word about the bridge: in the past, the one on the other side of the abyss As long as civilization sends information, it must be inseparable from "building a bridge", but this one in front of me seems... different from before
"It's very dangerous to talk to you," the voice didn't mean to explain too much at all, he was almost talking to himself, "Just a few minutes of contact may cause me to lose a lot... You don't have to worry about it. Now I have I have collected the information I want, I need to go back and think about it, there are too many things to weigh, so goodbye, I hope we can have a better meeting next time."
Just like when I came, the voice disappeared abruptly, saying a lot of nonsensical words, leaving me a nonsensical me.
I hope we can have a better time next time we meet
In other words, is it not pleasant for the two of us to meet this time
I thought about it for a long time, and felt that the opposite party was a little crazy.
It seems that the other party will not appear again, and the state of "returning to the void" is maintained for too long, which will lead to lack of energy after returning to the material world, so I ended this unexpected "roaming".
When my consciousness slowly emerged from the deep darkness to the surface, I opened my eyes, and in front of me was the familiar scene of the cabin. Detecting that the owner of the rest cabin wakes up, the main light in the room is slightly raised immediately to reduce the discomfort caused by the darkness, and at the same time, it will not wake up another occupant in the room: Ding Dong is still sleeping .
Looking at the time, the spacecraft should still be on the way to the transition.
From the small table next to her, there was a very, very small sound of smacking lips, as well as confused sleep talk. It seemed that Dingdang was dreaming of eating something again, and the little girl mentioned my name softly. In her soft murmur, my name and the two Eleven kinds of candy ice cream are arranged and played in a loop. I'm relieved that this means that I am indeed one of the most important things in her life to Jingle: the equivalent of a lollipop. And with the little thing talking softly in sleep, my thoughts became clear, recalling the content of the conversation with that strange voice in the state of fugue just now, I felt more and more that the situation was different from before.
The way and content of the other party's speech are different from the previous message sent by the civilization on the other side.
Ta didn't mention the bridge-building thing anymore, but he started to take an interest in me personally
I'm afraid this problem is not clear for the time being, and now I have a more important problem to solve: I'm insomnia!
Now I am so envious of the heartless three-inch man next to me who can sleep in a biscuit box! !
In this way, during the insomnia of the Supreme Commander in the middle of the night, the formation of the Sixth Fleet and the Admiral Empire, as well as the huge support fleet of the Servant Army we carried arrived at the farthest frontier. Now the place where the main force is stationed is not One of the three universes that sounded the alarm, but a desolate world next to it. Because we are worried that once the conflict with the fallen apostles breaks out in advance, it will be too late to transfer the battlefield, which will cause a large number of casualties to the natives of the macro world and even trigger the end of the local world.
After all, this level of war is no longer something that the weak races in the macro world can face.
When I came to the command hall, my elder sister and Xiaoxue were already waiting here, Ding Dong sat on top of my head and looked around, and saw my four living treasures were playing cards with Bingtis, so he fluttered happily In the past—I don't know how a little thing that stands taller than a poker card is going to play cards, but it looks like that little bean also wants to mix a hand.
"The fleet of the fallen apostles is just outside the barrier. We have set up traps in the field of order. As long as they face this world, they will be pulled closer to the material plane," Sivis saluted us from the command seat, his clear voice said There was a sound in the command hall, and the giant holographic projection in the middle of the hall showed the size of the enemy fleet and the current general arrangement, "However, it seems that the enemy realizes that our army is fully prepared. Gather more numbers. It seems that while our army is increasing, the Fallen Apostles have also mobilized their local army."
"Their support route will bypass the entire empire territory. This is a very long battle line," I shook my head. "There should not be more follow-up troops, at most one wave. Xiaoxue, get ready. "
"The enemy will not launch an attack for the time being," Xiaoxue stood on the officer's platform, the white halo in her eyes slowly flowing, and her voice was calm and powerful, "It will take about six hours to predict the time. Their last wave of reinforcements is already here." On the way... Well, as Dad said, it's the last wave."
This brat who was always joking and joking now has an extremely serious look on her face. She is wearing the neat uniform of a high-ranking officer of the Imperial Army, and she has an inexplicable aura surrounding her body. This kind of aura is no stranger to me. Every officer can feel it, it is the aura that will be unconsciously exuded by people who have experienced the real battlefield when they concentrate all their energy on preparing for a battle. Today's Xiaoxue is completely different from her usual appearance. If there are two people.
It's not the first time I've seen this big bear transform into this kind of form like a veteran in the battlefield. I didn't think it was surprising, but I just set my sights on the image sent back by the void probe. The enemy fleet gathered quietly in the void order field, completely showing no intention of hiding. Now the fallen apostles and the imperial army are already within the range of each other's cannons, completely confronting each other head-on, and neither side has any cleverness-at least it seems so on the surface.
They are all old rivals. The way of conflict between us has been probing each other, hiding, and beating around the bush from the beginning, and finally gradually developed to what it is now. Regardless of enemy or friend, each spaceship will only release one message: Come, let's fight!
However, I still can't figure out why the other party appears in this kind of place, this fringe world that is far away from their territory and completely meaningless in terms of strategic value. An expedition across such a long distance across the entire border of the empire, just to attack a civilian world with almost zero local defenses
The fallen apostles are out of their minds...well, their brains are already on fire.
"If you launch a surprise attack before the enemy's support troops arrive, you may receive greater results." Sivis spread the power of Commander Storm to the entire legion, and at the same time made a suggestion, "Subordinates suggest directly launching Order Disruption device, pulling the enemy into the effective range of the order field trap."
All the squadrons of the Sixth Army have joined forces, and the Royal Fleet is at the core of the joint array. Now we are fully prepared for the attack. According to Xiaoxue's judgment, the enemy's support force is only one wave, and it seems that the other two legions on standby in Shadow City don't even need to show up.
"Surprise attack..." I judged the current situation. Indeed, the imperial army has been assembled, and the expected number of enemies is completely exposed to our army because of the ability of the prophet to open up. If there is no prophet, prudent officers will definitely not be here. It is time to choose to act in advance, because this may be taken advantage of by the enemy's follow-up troops who cut into the battlefield at any time, but we have a prophet, so there is no need to worry about it.
But I think maybe we should wait a little bit... for a better time.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but this battle has always been inexplicable to me. It started suddenly, and then the incident escalated inexplicably. Almost in the blink of an eye, the frontiers of the empire had already confronted each other, and everything was advancing at an abnormal pace... This What the hell is... what's wrong? RS
