Xyrin Empire

Chapter 158: A research center in the shadow city

Views:

Anyway, after finally preventing Anveena from carrying out the sixth cleaning today, my sister suggested that everyone go to the Shadow City to see how the counterfeit version of the space-time sensor is assembled.

Originally, we hoped that the boss of the Protoss could have the space coordinates of the world of Azeroth, which would save us a lot of trouble, but unfortunately, Ding Dong received news from the God Realm not long ago. The area is too remote, and the world of Azeroth has not been registered in the World Management Center of the God Realm at all. The Protoss know the existence of this world, but...the only way they know this world is through the official website of Netease...

Should I... faint

Anyway, due to the unreliable Protoss, we still have to find the space coordinates of the world of Azeroth on our own... The only good thing is that there is Ding Dong, a little guy who is said to be very popular in the God Realm, and we are here in Aize Lars' battle may be easier, after all, the Protoss reinforcements are no joke.

Speaking of Shadow City, since Pandora created such a phantom space to house commanders, I seldom go to that magical place. The important thing is, I'm still not used to this weird projected world...

Well, I'm not used to it...

Walking on the familiar but empty streets, I once again had this sense of disobedience like a dream.

The city is the city where I grew up. I am very familiar with every plant, tree, and street here, but the whole city is so weird, not only because of the occasional towering towers in this city. The tall Xiling buildings in this group of buildings are not only because of the desolation and silence of the whole city, but also because of the huge distortion brought about by this space as a false world.

This feeling is very mysterious, as if in a lucid dream, everything around you will feel abnormal even if it seems real.

When we came in, the real world outside was just getting dark, but it was already late at night in this shadow city. A huge and somewhat exaggerated moon hung in the sky, covering one-fifth of the sky. The lines on the screen are clearly visible. This is caused by Bubble's bad taste. After watching a few cartoons with weird styles, this small house girl who originally had no other hobbies other than playing games began to fall in love with the shadow world. Doing all kinds of weird art graffiti on the sky, she even specially built a distorted space force field in the shadow city, and arranged simulation scenes such as "curse", "midnight bell" and "zero butterfly" in it …

I have always maintained a very tolerant attitude towards this Wannian who has a weaker sense of existence than Pandora. I usually follow her whatever she wants to do, but when she tries to teach Little Bubbles to draw on the wall of her room Except when it comes to art...

A large group of us were walking under the dim street lights, with a huge dizzy moon above our heads, and a ghost girl floating with light flickering all over my body, the surroundings were as cold as a tomb, and those beside me The huge building is brightly lit, but there is no trace of popularity. In this weird atmosphere, I feel that those so-called haunted house adventure games are warm and harmonious like a spring field...

Thankfully, we've pretty much gotten used to it...

The daily management in Shadow City is in charge of Pandora's adjutant Sivis—forgot the name? Then you should have an impression of Pan Lingling, the long-haired beauty who almost became the president of a certain country and finally became my class teacher, right

Since I left school, Sivis immediately quit the job that meant nothing to her, and turned her attention to managing affairs in the Shadow City. If there is no warlord to manage the base, God knows how big a mess those Xiling officers who are afraid of chaos in the world will make.

Sivis lives near the center of Shadow City, next to the core computer that monitors the entire space. Due to the importance of this area, it has been transformed into a strict military fortress, with guard towers and patrols everywhere. The Xiling soldiers, the ground is completely covered by heterogeneous alloys that can be transformed into sharp thorns at any time, and above the fortress, small lightly armed mechs are cruising around the clock without interruption. Such tight protection, I am afraid Even if a fly wants to fly in, it has to be saturated and bombed again...

But... In such a projection space where it is impossible for enemies to enter, is such strict protection necessary

"It is quite necessary," Pandora said with a serious expression, "Never underestimate the strength of the enemy—even if they look as weak as ants."

... You little warmonger, what scale of imaginary enemies have you set up in your mind!

Just when I was speechless about Pandora's war spirit, Sivis, who had just learned of our arrival, rushed over.

She gave us a standard Xiling military salute with a "snap", and said loudly: "The glory of the empire is with you! Your Majesty the Great Emperor!"

… Do you know how weird it is that a beautiful teacher who used to take the gentle route turned into an iron-blooded officer of Xiling...

After awkwardly returning the salute, I immediately waved my hand and said: "Okay, okay, you know I don't like this, you should use the usual way of greeting..."

"Oh... have you eaten?"

"… have eaten… "

Standing at the gate of this majestic and oppressive military fortress and saying hello like this, I feel even weirder...

It seems that no matter which race you are in, it is a very important thing for the superiors to come to inspect, especially when the inspectors also include the head of the empire, the gods of the star field, and the supreme military leader. The inspection is even more remarkable.

In less than two minutes, Sivis told me that all the staff and related equipment in the research center are ready... With such a speed, I am afraid that there are only these Xiling apostles who can directly control the mind through the superior commander They can do it.

Walking in the alloy corridor full of futuristic technology, Sivis gave us a detailed introduction to the achievements of those Xiling technicians in the recent period.

In fact, it is not very accurate to say that it is the result, it should be said that it is the technology they recovered.

The technical strength of the Xiling Empire at its peak was quite strong. At that time, the empire even developed a method to instantly annihilate the entire world to absorb energy. The empire's information network is broken and there is no trace. What the Xiling technicians are doing now is how to use the existing methods as much as possible to reproduce those lost but crucial technologies.

The space-time sensing device is one of the most important ones.

The super-time-space leap technology has always been the most proud and widely used technology of the Xiling Empire. It is the existence of this technology that makes it possible for the Xiling Empire to spread across countless planes like the gods, but now However, the most critical part of this technology is missing, that is, the unfamiliar space scanning technology. Without this technology, it means that we can no longer purposefully explore new worlds, but can only conduct limited research in the known world. For those Xiling technicians who are used to constantly discovering and exploring new worlds, this is as painful as stabbing their eyes.

It's a pity that observing other worlds through the etheric sea or even the endless void is not just for fun. No matter how advanced the technicians are, it is impossible to reproduce this almost miraculous technology in a short time.

When we came to the largest research "room", the counterfeit space-time sensor that was only less than 60% completed appeared before our eyes.

In all fairness, this is really a huge and magnificent device. It is in the shape of a hexagonal pyramid with a big end and a small end. It is upside down and suspended above a large hole in the center of the research "chamber". The total length is at least two hundred. meters, on the surface of this huge hexagonal pyramid, it is covered with components so complex that it would make people dizzy at a glance—this is because the device has not been completed yet, and there is no case installed for it.

In the gaps of those complex components, dim light flashes from time to time, that is the technicians are testing some key energy circuits inside, the energy consumption of this big guy is astonishing, so it also uses Greek The most commonly used high-energy output method in the Spirit Empire—different space energy reactor, by setting a huge energy unit in a different time and space, and using the space interface to output huge energy to energy-consuming equipment, it can effectively reduce the size of the device in reality. The volume in the space, and avoid the possibility of catastrophic consequences caused by damage to the super energy core, but such a device also has a disadvantage, that is, the complexity is too high, after all, it is necessary to install a space tear at the end of each key energy pipeline. A device, such a thing is tens of millions of times more complicated than a simple plug and socket...

Are you dizzy? Anyway, when Pandora explained this bunch of things to me, I was dizzy.

"The main part of this space-time sensor is actually fully usable, but the key point is that we still can't provide it with a stable scanning probe."

I nodded solemnly, then stared gravely at the gigantic majesty.

"Do you understand?" Qianqian exclaimed suddenly.

I still have a serious expression: "... no..."

A vein appeared in the corner of Sandora's eyes: "... If Lin Xue was here, you would definitely be complained to death..."

Sivis suppressed a smile, and changed to an easier-to-understand saying: "In other words, you can use this thing as a microscope. Now we have assembled a strong and durable mirror frame. Unfortunately, we can't polish the lenses. …”

... Uh, the most critical thing is missing.

"How is Xue Lin's ability? I heard that the last experiment was a success?"

"Yes, the power of Mistress Lin Xue is beyond the praise of our apostles who are best at energy perception, and the resonance between Mistress Lin's energy wavelength and this device is also quite good, and it is used to assume the responsibility of the 'lens' It's perfect, but..."

"But what?" I noticed that Sivis's expression was a little hesitant, so I couldn't help asking curiously.

At the same time, I began to have guesses in my mind.

Could it be that this device will have a huge negative effect on the human body? Think about it, the inside of this thing is full of high-energy radiation after all, maybe Xiling Apostle is not afraid, but Lin Xue is still a human being, no matter how strong her mental power barrier is, there is a limit. I know her character very well, and she must have a strong character. , as long as it is a promise to a friend, she will fulfill it at all costs. Even if she gets hurt because of it, she will use a strong appearance to get away with it. Although she and I are always noisy, But how can we say that we are also friends, I am afraid that in order to fulfill her promise, she will go all out to be harmed by radiation and not tell us...

Just as Lin Xue's image kept rising in my heart, Sivis finally took down a charred part from the table next to it, and said to me: "Mother Lin Xue always makes experiments. little tricks... we've burned out four control pods..."
