This is a starport located on the border of the Empire District, and it is also the largest of the border starports.
The Admiral of the Empire and the Royal Fleet are undergoing preparations. Those huge starships are fixed at the end of the starport long bridge by force field light beams. A large number of firefly-like light spots flow continuously between the starship and the port. They are engineering ships and self-disciplined ships. Mechanics, whose mission is to add various modifications, add-ons to the spacecraft, and perform one final test of these extras. Such a large-scale refurbishment and temporary transformation is rare, and it is difficult to see such a scene in wartime, but this kind of transformation is necessary-because what we have to face is a place that is more unpredictable than the battlefield.
The Royal Fleet will set off for the void space, and it is a void space that is far beyond the exploration record and has never been touched by anyone. A wave of destruction is surging there. The body, power, and mechanism of this wave of destruction are unknown , and even the propulsion speed and specific scope are unknown, we may plunge headlong into the martyrdom of millions of universes, or hit the gate of the abyss head-on, so we must make all preparations in advance. The escort of void creatures is not omnipotent, and the truly omnipotent thing is always an unrelenting cautious attitude.
Sandora and I watched the busy scene in space on the upper platform of the star port, and Tavel's mass projection was reporting to the work: "...all the modified parts have been installed, and the final test is now in progress Work, the transformation direction is mainly to increase the jumping speed of the spaceship in the void, and the radar sensing strength of various electronic warfare ships. We are not sure whether the wave of destruction can pose a threat to the imperial fleet. We are not even sure what form it is , so 'cleaning your eyes' works better. In theory."
"Yeah." I nodded slightly absent-mindedly, recalling the information I heard a few days ago in my mind:
There is a wave of destruction raging far away from the Empire District. It is still unclear what this wave is. It probably has no body at all, but is just a "factual existence" composed of a series of events. This wave It led to the death of a large number of worlds a certain distance away from the Three Void God Realms (the shadow space today is called the Xiling God Realm without any problem), and the death patterns were not regular at all. Abyss Xiling speculates that this is another harbinger of the impending catastrophe, and it is very likely to be the last harbinger—after all, it has risen to the point where it directly leads to the end, and there will probably be no other "warnings" in the future. It is directly a catastrophe.
The power of the Void has sheltered many worlds (beyond the Void as we know it). But this sanctuary still has limits, and unfortunately... the home world is too far away from us, it is outside the scope of the sanctuary.
Now we have good news and bad news, the good news is that after a period of exclusion checks. The approximate coordinates of the home world have been determined. Currently there are only three suspected coordinates. Moreover, "they" are still in one "direction", and it is bound to be found after a long voyage; the bad news is that these three coordinates are located in unprecedentedly remote places, far away from the shelter of void creatures. Probably already caught up in that wave of destruction.
I hope it can still survive this time, otherwise... it's not just a problem that the apostles of Xiling can't accept emotionally. The home world is the best hope for bridging. The whole void.
After an emergency meeting, we decided not to send an exploration team, but directly dragged the Legion and the engineering team over there. Anyway, the other coordinates have been checked. Now the location of the home world can be said to be certain, and there is no need What probed. Sandora and I will personally lead the Royal Fleet to our home world. Along with the fleet, there are sufficient engineering teams, protoss experts, and mass-produced mainframes. In addition, we also brought the newly repaired startup terminal. The thing is hovering behind us now, and the ignition end in the off state looks like an orange light cluster, which is much smaller than the white nova when it was fully charged.
The ancient boot-end core is inside it, running in sleep mode with low power consumption, and the whole system is working extremely well. This is the only good news among all the bad news-the compatibility of parts made on both sides of the strait is good, and the quality of the boot-end made on the other side is good. Not bad.
"Immediately prepare to build a bridge after arriving at the destination. Arrangements have been made on the other side. Their activation terminal can be launched at any time, just waiting for our side to be in place." Sandora turned her head and glanced at the dimly lit activation terminal. The deep sea blue eyes were full of calmness and firmness, "This is a plan that needs to be accelerated. As long as the home world is still there, we will start to act immediately."
"Don't worry, she must still be there," I thought of a brat at home who traveled through time and space, "Didn't the brat tell you everything, she used to go to her hometown world to play when she was young."
"She also said yesterday that the cataclysm of the void may break many established facts, and the success rate of void creatures' actions will also change the established facts, so she is not sure that the future will be 100% according to her memory," Sandora frowned. , "All things related to void creatures cannot be 'destined'. We must be prepared to not find our home world, and we must be prepared to fail to bridge."
I opened my mouth, and shook my head with a wry smile after a while: "Tsk tsk, I'm under a lot of pressure, as if the lifeblood of the entire void is on me... It's not a good thing to say 'destiny', but I am I really hope that my life can be doomed by something, at least I don't have to work so hard to open up the future."
On the other side, Bingtis, who was busy researching how to use the data terminal, turned his head to look at me when he heard this, and sighed: "Oh... your whole family is like this. When I went to the God Realm to report on work the day before yesterday, Father God also said that I am exactly the same as you." I said that you, as Void, are always in charge, so you can’t be a little bit worried? At least don’t sabotage your work in front of everyone, I’m counting on you!”
I curled my lips and changed the subject wisely: "Now I can confirm one thing, that is, the 70,000 years when I was revived after reading the article, I must also have a passive aura. The worlds of Omen's destruction were all finished decades ago. I was not born on Earth at that time, so I'm pretty good when I think about it... "
"That's right, how can the man my concubine likes not be powerful?" Bingtis shook her head proudly, "Is it a joke that he can ward off evil spirits after death? Don't talk about the grave, even if there is only one posthumous photo left. Can drive the enemy for hundreds of miles... "
When Sister Bing opened her mouth, everyone was shocked. I looked at this female hooligan with almost cannibalistic eyes... but she pretended not to see it. I looked up and down for a long time to confirm that this guy is not malicious at all, not only is she not malicious, she still has a downright proud look on her face, and the eyes she looks at are also full of goodwill. I can guarantee that when she said these words, she used the mentality of "my husband is amazing". But the amount of sand in the female hooligan's words is still unbearable! It's a shame!
Does she really plan to learn how a normal girl should live in this life
And Bingtis doesn't seem to want to stop there at all. I noticed that when I looked over, she became even more enthusiastic: "Hey, Chen, speaking of which, the setting of your resurrection after death is really amazing. Why didn't I notice that you are so suitable to be a husband before—— I don't have to worry about being a widow in this life..."
Everyone finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Shut up!"
Bingtis shrank his neck and remained silent. Elder Sister thought of another thing: "Ah Jun, will there be any problem for you to leave the Empire Zone like this? Will that weird wave of destruction come when you leave the Empire Zone?"
It is normal for my sister to worry about this. According to the information brought back by several exploration teams, the area where the universe collectively died is a place that is far and equal to the shadow space, the star field, and the Huron God Realm. If these three areas occupied by void creatures are regarded as spheres (of course, there is no such shape concept in the void, here is just an example), then there are three spherical safe areas of equal size on the side of the void ( Among them, the empire area and the star field safety area partially overlap), the center of the ball is me, Xing Chen, and Sister Xila, and there are pieces of ruins outside the ball. This extremely obvious phenomenon makes people inevitably connect the safe zone with the void creature itself, and thus regard the three of us as a kind of lightning rod... This metaphor is a bit rough, but it is absolutely appropriate.
And this time I plan to set off with the Royal Fleet, which is equivalent to running a lightning rod. Naturally, I have to worry about whether the Empire District will be taken advantage of by the wave of destruction-we have indeed analyzed and studied this matter for a long time before departure. with.
But the conclusion is that it's okay: we have a substitute.
Xiaoxue is now confined at home and not allowed to go out. Although she can only be regarded as half a void creature, things like information disturbance power are really mysterious. As long as she touches it, the effect will be infinite immediately, so we feel that Xiaoxue is The home can also act as a lightning rod.
Of course, it’s hard to say how effective this substitute will be. What really makes me feel that I don’t have to worry about it is another point: Sheila has been chasing Xingchen all day long, and she hasn’t been idle for decades. Is something wrong
Moreover, I myself have traveled to the remote borders and even the white areas several times in these years, and I didn't find any waves of destruction coming, which is enough to show that the temporary departure of the "lightning rod" is not dangerous. Xingchen and Xila rushed back to the God Realm mostly just in case, but in fact, we guessed that the shelter effect of void creatures should be similar to a "territory" rather than a moving halo, so this time I left the Empire area as well. There will be no problem. Coupled with the technology of the empire here, even if the end of the world happens in the border area, it will not be a big problem. At most, it will be a few more group relocations. Since a long time ago, the empire has not been afraid of the end of the world.
Compared with this, the home world is more important-if it has not been destroyed by this wave of destruction, then I must rush to protect it. I am very self-aware and know that I can't help much in terms of technology. The main purpose of the imperial army this time was to build bridges. Of course, I followed the past and was not a technical consultant. My task was to build bridges. Guarantee the safety of the home world. This job seems very simple, as long as you go to that station by yourself, we are best at things without technical content.
So there is a saying that is true: Void creatures live like a halo launcher all day long... Although it is a joke, it is the truth!
"Sister, don't worry," I nodded to my sister, "Don't forget that we had a good argument before we set off. No problem."
My sister hummed, and turned her head to look at the work scene in space, fascinated, while I looked around: basically all the family members are here, and this time the housekeepers in the capital world are An Weina and Xiaoxue. There are fox nanny dolls who can only make trouble when they arrive at the scene. The little crow is currently chatting with Lin Xue on a small platform not far away. Although she is also considered one of the doll heads (in terms of age), she has to go out with her this time, because her ability is very useful, and no matter what How to put it... This silly bird is much more reliable than the other brats.
This is interesting enough to say, the little crow should be regarded as one of the younger children in the family. Since she was hatched from the egg, she is only about two years old. A two-year-old child—he turned out to be the most reliable of a bunch of brats! Although she has cognitive problems, her brain is not working well, she is often mischievous, and she can't get rid of a lot of problems such as squatting on a chair to eat, tearing up the bed and making a nest, hatching eggs, and crowing. But other than that, she mastered her abilities as quickly as possible. Learned how to use his void shuttle to do things. She knows how to survive on the battlefield (run away if she can't fight), and even now she can complete some military tasks independently. She can go to the white area to collect intelligence by herself. It can also handle the church under my own name (this is the most amazing!), and by the time I realized it, this little crow had grown up!
I really didn't expect that this silly bird turned out to be the biggest gifted child in the family. Should it be called a wild bird? She still seems to retain the racial talent that grew rapidly after hatching...
"It will be boarding in a few minutes," Abyss Xiling's voice came from behind, "It seems that you are all ready?"
I turned my head and saw that the girl pushing the box had a disheveled face: Although her life form does not need to express her mood through her face, she still makes her interface look closer to real creatures. It is said that In order to enhance the communication effect. Seeing Abyss Xiling like this, I couldn't help shaking my eyebrows: "What's wrong with you?"
"I don't like things that are uncertain and incalculable," Abyss Xiling shrugged, "This operation is like this. We have to hope that our home world can survive the wave of destruction, and this depends entirely on 'luck', It feels so bad."
"Aha, everyone is the same, but not as serious as you." I looked up to the sky and laughed, "Actually, I am quite confident in the world of my hometown. I resisted the abyss back then, and I have resisted the ups and downs for so many years. , How could it be possible to fall down at this last trembling time? And didn’t the exploration team say that not all universes will end in places with waves of destruction, it’s just that the end of the world is denser than other places, and there are still surviving ones There are still quite a lot of worlds, and things need to be thought about in a better direction.”
Abyss Xiling sighed and lowered his head slightly: "Okay, since it's my father's suggestion, I'll try to follow it. But it's still not compatible with my logic model, your real creatures are so strange."
I scratched my face: "What's the matter with real creatures? I'm just more optimistic."
At this time, Sandora came over and interrupted my conversation with Abyss Xiling: "Let's talk about gossip on the ship, and prepare to board the ship."
At this moment, the preparation and inspection of the last spacecraft has been completed, and all fleet members began to board their respective battleships through the transmission device in order. This fleet has great responsibilities. It can be said that it carries the future of the entire void—at least the future of the entire void on our "side", so its every move will be extremely eye-catching.
All the imperial outposts in the macro world, every family territory, every direct jurisdiction of the empire, and even the world of gods and mortals under the rule of the gods, all places that know about the empire, there are countless people watching this fleet of. On the holographic projection of the Interstellar Merchant, in the crystal ball of the Grand Arcanist, and in the display devices in front of every civilian, mercenary, believer, and examiner, the situation of the Royal Fleet is being broadcast. Even if I can't see how many people are paying attention to this matter with my own eyes, I can imagine what kind of focus the fleet I am in is becoming—there is no doubt that it will become one of the most important events in the history of the void. It will become a grand event with the highest attention among all cross-world civilizations.
This is not a classified operation, so there are countless people who can see the scene of the Royal Fleet setting off - but in fact, most people don't know what we are going to do, after all, the news of the Void Cataclysm has not been announced to all ordinary people (this is In order to prevent panic), what we say to the folks this time is just that the apostles of Xiling are looking for their hometown. But even if you can only watch the excitement, it is enough for the people of the macro world to be very excited: it is rare for the empire to publicly broadcast such a large-scale fleet.
In the command hall of the Admiral of the Empire, watching the ever-increasing data flow, I was overwhelmed: "Theoretically, unless Father God and King Huron announce their marriage the next day, or Star Minister and Sauvre announce their marriage, otherwise It is very difficult to create the same ratings as today... "
Bingtis was sitting next to her, and she was also very excited when she heard what I said, and kicked over on the spot: "It's all about to start, and you are still taking the last time to talk nonsense? And how can you say that Father God is also your second son?" Brother, is it okay to organize your few clansmen like this?"
I chuckled: "Do you dare to go back and find out how many folk tales you protoss girls have per capita with Father God and Sauvre as the protagonists?"
Bingtis' face froze, and his whole body was in a bad mood: "...the world is going down, the world is going down."
Even this female gangster has something to look down on, which shows that the world is indeed in decline.
Then just like usual, Lin Xue happily came up to join in the fun and said some harsher jokes, Qianqian was at the side lest the world would be chaotic and mixed up, Sandora shook her head and smiled bitterly, her sister finally suppressed it, and the little crow didn't know, so the whole process screaming...
In such a daily atmosphere, the fleet crashed.
Set off, go to the original place.
