Chapter 1398: Stubborn ancestors

Views:

Today is the second day after returning from the deep dive test port. Tavel and her team of experts transported the second black shuttle to Shadow City safely in the morning. The detector on the opposite bank was dismantled into a piece of scum—after all, the last black shuttle gave people the feeling that there was no way to start, and Tavel’s research was therefore very unsatisfactory. This time, this one seems to have lost its self-destruct function, and its shell has been destroyed. After being opened, Tavel was finally able to take out the contents and see what happened. r />

In addition, as long as the deep dive port control center is rebuilt, the deep dive plan can be continued, and Lin Xue has guaranteed tickets for the next deep dive operation. I guess Tavel and her friends should be in an unprecedented situation now. Hi status.

Anyway, I am also happy knowing that these major projects can continue safely. This means that at least before the next convulsion of the fallen apostle comes, I can live a relatively stable life. In fact, for me, I am not afraid of being busy at work every day. What I am afraid of is that every job is unexpected. I believe many people can understand this truth: let you be busy all day doing a familiar thing, even if This matter is that many people can persist in moving bricks and mud every day, but in addition to moving bricks and mud, they have to randomly select a lucky day every week to go to the Middle East to maintain world peace, then few people can accept it up.

And my rhythm is like this most of the time - I calculated that I spend an average of 20 days a month to approve tons of reports, and the remaining 10 days randomly select time, place and battles to maintain world peace, look back I myself feel that I may be born to be a holy lord—do you think any ordinary person can accept this kind of rhythm of life? Of course, the reason why I can accept this kind of life may be that my mind is relatively slow, and usually only when I have nothing to do and relax like now, I will think of life with emotion.

Now at 9:30 in the morning, Qianqian dragged her elder sister and Monina to the streets early in the morning, and she hasn't come back yet. Maybe it’s because of a discount in a supermarket, or a fight between cats and dogs on the street: Anyway, there are always many reasons why Qianqian doesn’t come home after going out for half a day. That girl’s thinking is like a picture in a high math textbook, you can see it but can't understand...

I just discussed with Sandora for a long time about the details of the deep dive ship's first dive in this round of operations. Because this is the first time the new ship has performed a mission since it left port, and almost 70% of its systems are newly designed: it is almost the same as the first ship, so its maiden voyage It is more to verify the stability of the new equipment, and there are not many clear test tasks, and its dive "depth" should not exceed the previous ship. My plan is to be a little conservative, just make sure all the systems of the ship are working properly for the first test. And Sandora's plan is a little more radical: she plans to take people down directly.

… Well, it’s not as simple as being slightly aggressive.

But I also understand Sandora's thoughts, because Tavel did mention this amazing progress in the report: not only has she enabled the new ship to have a return function, but she has also given that thing a considerable battery life. Unlike the "deep submersible ship" we released last time, which was almost an oversized disposable probe, the new ship is a mature and complete official spacecraft. Within the safe "depth", it is designed to dive more than a hundred times, and can carry a scientific research team of less than 20 people to work and live in it. Remember the communication device we took back from the Melovas? It was the thing that was developed in the fifteen-day zone, but was snatched before it could be assembled on Occam's deep-diving ship. Tavel has successfully copied it and installed it on her newly designed spaceship. So our new ship also has the ability to communicate with the outside world in the deep area of the abyss.

With so many drastic improvements. Sandora naturally looked high-spirited, so she decided to do a manned test during the first dive. After all, it is impossible to verify all systems only by relying on the simulation cabin.

She and I have been studying this issue for a long time, and there are good reasons for both radical and conservative ideas. In the end, we came to a conclusion: don't get entangled in this topic if you are two and a half bottles of vinegar, let's see how Tavel arranges it...

I thought of Sandora arguing with me for a long time with a serious and rigorous appearance, and finally remembered that I was also a half-hearted person in terms of deep dive technology. when you get up. Especially these two days...

I hurriedly came to the living room, wanting to see something interesting on TV: Although we are Weiming Yunei. But still very interested in what's going on on this planet. But as soon as I came downstairs, I saw something more eye-catching than the TV: a large group of golden fur balls was lying in front of the coffee table, and next to the fur balls lay a silver-haired female hooligan lying on the floor.

I don't know how to get together with Bingtis and that bastard fox. What are the two of them concentrating on studying

Full of curiosity, I slowly approached these two groups that would never get together. They were so involved that they didn't even notice it. I saw that bastard fox sitting cross-legged on the ground, her face was almost pressed into the coffee table, and the tail behind her buttocks was also dangling according to her mood, which could almost completely block the whole person when viewed from behind: So just now When I went downstairs, I saw a big hairball lying there. Bingtis also sat on the ground without any image, while studying the things on the coffee table with the fox, while pointing and muttering to the other party in a low voice.

I took a condescending look at the back and found that there was a small group of luminous balls floating on the coffee table. The surface is three to five centimeters high, leisurely dancing in circles in front of the fox. I took a closer look, and was stunned to find that those little balls of light still had fuzzy facial features!

Immediately, I thought of some low-level natural elves in another world, and those natural spirits looked similar to this.

"What the hell is this?" I said suddenly, "Did you buy any new pets from Shadow City?"

The fox was startled by the sudden sound from above, its tail jumped like a sword mound, jumped up and bumped into me, I pushed the fox fairy back, and the latter patted his chest white glanced at me. Then he carefully gathered up those small balls of light on the coffee table and showed them to me: "The lice on the tail, I suddenly discovered that they have all turned into sperm..."

I:"… ?!"

Bingtis kicked over from the side: "So, your information disturbance power is right or wrong, right or wrong!"

I jumped up and down to dodge the serial kicks of the female hooligans. In the end, I had no choice but to grab Sister Bing by her feet and throw her on the sofa. Only then did I have time to observe the group of small light balls held by the fox. The little thing who thinks the spirit of nature jumped enthusiastically twice, making a sound like the wind, and the scene was so weird that I was speechless.

It took me a while to react. Grabbing Lord Fox Immortal by the ear: "Where did you get the lice from bathing all day!? Did you fight with Cerberus again? Or are you going to lead the group of wild cats on the west side of the street to resist human tyranny again!?"

A bunch of fox tails flapped on my body like a big windmill to show resistance, and grinned: "Let go of me! Let me go! I am Master Fox Fairy! My ears are very sensitive..."

"Okay, you two are crazy and make trouble again when you have time." Bingtis came up to persuade the fight with a serious face at this time, and she rescued the fox. While handing me a piece of paper, "A letter from Father God, about your ancestral grave... oh, Sandora's ancestral grave."

... Can't this guy learn how to speak normally

Speaking of the hometown world, we have sent the last bit of logs sorted out by our ancestors to the God Realm a few days ago. Basically, Ansers and a dozen or so ancestors can recall all the details in there. And this time the letter sent by God the Father was indeed a progress report. In the letter, he was very happy to tell me a piece of good news: God Realm has found quite clear clues from the huge data base, and now they are almost sure. The hometown world of the Apostles of Xiling is in a certain area where the Protoss once set foot, and after so many days of investigation, this area has been limited to a fairly small area, and it may not take three or two days to determine the location of the hometown world. coordinate.

Father God also told me with special pride. It was indeed one of the volunteer students called by Sovre that found the most crucial clue: a delegation of teachers and students from Yuqiang Vocational Technical School from the Holy Fire Continent...

This is the first time I know that God Realm School also has such a bad name, this name is really kind...

"What's the content?" Bingtis sat cross-legged on the sofa with her feet in her arms, and continued to study the group of lice spirits with the fox who jumped on the sofa with her shoes on. asked casually.

"It is said that it has been confirmed that the world of the hometown is in the list of worlds registered by the protoss, and the final elimination method is now being carried out." While talking, I patted the fox and asked her to squat on the sofa without wearing shoes: Although Not dirty, but as a Fox Fairy, you have to be decent, right? "I also mentioned that there is a Yuqiang Vocational Technical School in God Realm..."

Bingtis stroked the silver hair on his head: "Oh, that school used to be called Osiris Holy Academy, and then the headmaster there thought that the name of the God Realm School was basically the same style and didn't show creativity. , it was changed to this, it is considered a prestigious school, famous for its innovation.”

Me: "..." In Bingtis' hometown, I want to be different! Then I run a school called Yucai Middle School. I don’t know if it can be regarded as a strange school

When I was thinking this way, a message suddenly came from Shadow City, it was from Tavel: "Your Majesty, please come here for a while, it has something to do with the ancestors."

I was taken aback, and opened the portal to Shadow City without thinking too much, and then Sandora followed me, and it seemed that she had also received Tavel's report. We came to the research center in a daze, only to find that Ansers, Lu and several other ancestors were arguing fiercely with the glasses lady. Seeing me and Sandora appear, people from both sides rushed forward as if seeing a savior.

Sandora frowned: "What's going on?"

"The ancestors knew about the Deep Dive Project." Tavel frowned, "asked to join."

I looked at Anses in astonishment. The faces of the other party and the other ancestors were only serious. Obviously, this idea was not a whim, and it was already difficult to change.

Sandora and I quickly looked at each other, exchanged views in the spiritual connection, and then said in unison: "This project is dangerous!"

"We've been living dangerously all our lives." Ansers didn't take this as a problem at all. "And now it seems that the 'Deep Dive Project' is the most risky one of them."

I know that Ansers is a very stubborn old man. Although I have a good impression of him, it's really worrying for the old man to be stubborn, so I got entangled all of a sudden. It never occurred to us to give our ancestors access to the Deep Dive program, but it never occurred to us to keep it a secret from them. This project has been in operation to this day, and it is no longer classified as top secret like it was originally—although all its details are still classified, but at least the existence of this project is well known, so the ancestors who accidentally learned of "Deep Dive" may It seems logical.

This should be regarded as a major oversight on our part: everyone did not expect that the ancestors would ask to participate in such a desperate operation!

"Old man, I know you have a deep obsession with the abyss." I considered how to persuade my ancestor. "But this project really can't be done casually. In the deep dive team, even those who help screw the screws (if there are any) have to be reviewed and tested for a long time. How can they add people casually? And to be honest, you all know what the abyss is. Things, after struggling for half a lifetime, I finally don't have to deal with them. Why do you want to get together again?"

"It's because we know what the abyss is." Ansers' voice was flat, but loud, "We're going to see it."

"Just to take a look?" I hurried up and said earnestly, "That's fine, shall we go home after we're done?"

Ansers' expression froze: "That's just a description..."

I spread my hands, knowing that this old man is not so easy to persuade. And a group of ancestors knew that being able to enter the gate of the abyss now is definitely not as simple as "seeing", so they had to clarify the situation with them: "Old man, I am not pouring cold water on you, think about it. The things with the highest technological content, the slightly lower-level technicians in the research institute were all blind in the past, you are not scientists, how can you help in the past?"

"This project should not only need scientists." Lu said softly but resolutely, "It's okay to do odd jobs. Or stand on guard, and you can arrange any kind of work. Anyway, we don't make trouble? If you really think we don't have Use, we can learn!"

Speaking of this, I think I can only nod, I don't have the courage to nod and say that the ancestors are useless-although this is true in a sense. I communicated with Sandora for a while, and the latter was also very helpless: Since they know about this plan, no one can stop these extremely stubborn ancestors unless they use force. Or inherited from these people.

"That's it." I reluctantly nodded, "But you definitely can't participate in the research team, the technology content is too high, you can go to the sentinel team or the service department to help, but you must do one thing: follow Tavel's command, 100% Obedience to the command—this is not the study of baking cakes without water, but the study of the door to the abyss, if one person does not follow the command, one may die!"

The wrinkles on Ansers' face stretched out: "Of course I understand, we are not children."

I said to myself that you know it too—you guys are stronger than brats, and the brats in my family at least know how to listen to adults.

"Your Majesty?!" The situation took a turn for the worse, and Tavel came back to his senses at this time, realizing that a shocking burden had been dropped on his shoulders, and his eyes were straight, "You really want to let the ancestors participate in this..."

"The organization has high expectations on you." I patted the glasses girl on the shoulder, "Don't put too much pressure on you!"

Tavel: "... yes, Your Majesty."

After everyone else left, only Anses stayed at the end and looked at Sandora and me. The old man said cheerfully, "I know you must be scolding me in your heart right now."

I quickly waved my hand, but before I could speak, the old man continued the second half of the sentence with arrogance: "It's useless for you to scold anyway, and I don't intend to listen."

Me: "..." The bachelor spirit of the ancestor is really exactly the same as the modern apostle.

"We and the abyss are eternal enemies." The old man said with emotion, "But until the day when the Xiling people became extinct, we didn't know what the source of that thing was like. This is a kind of aggrieved, you know? Now that you can pass through that door, for us old guys, it is hopeful that the biggest obsession in our life can be solved... "

The old man patted me on the shoulder: "People don't live in this world just to eat and sleep. After finally surviving, if we are still waiting to die like before, what is the difference from when we died? So we will spare no effort To learn those things that you have never touched before, and to live again, you can't waste this life."

After saying this, Anses turned and left, leaving me and Sandora with a bachelor's back. Sandora and I looked at each other speechlessly. In the end, the two of them sighed dumbfoundedly: the ancestors didn't know anything. Well, it's just that this temper is like steel and concrete, and oil and salt don't get in...

Two days later, the once-destroyed deep dive port control center was rebuilt, and the deep dive ship was ready. Tavel plans to do the first deep dive test on this new ship tomorrow. According to the usual practice, of course it should be me and Sandora went to town in person—but an old acquaintance unexpectedly arrived and interrupted my plan.

God the Father has come.
