No matter how long I study it, I really still can't understand what kind of Glory Starship is.
Of course, if you just look at it from the outside, these huge planetary fortresses are nothing more than combat spaceships with a special construction method, just like the barrier star of Viska. I have been there more than once, and it feels like a high-tech ship. Star warship, but despite these appearances, it is more like a mystical creation inside.
The materialization of spiritual power projected the soul in the form of a star warship, and the whole construction process of the glory starship was finished in a few words of gods and gods. Theoretically, if someone really wants to know how the Glory Starship came about, I have a highly compressed file with only four G in the directory, you can take a look...
Now it is night on the parent star. Of course, since there are no stars here, the day and night on the parent star are also formed under artificial control. The reason why the surface of the star is set to night is entirely for the convenience of us observing the status of the world arbitration institution.
In the clear and deep night sky, there are three huge moons hanging.
That is the planetary warship that has launched the gravitational isolation system and is orbiting the parent star far away. Since the distance is quite close, from our position, the three white discs are like shadowless lights covering half of the sky. , the faint glow they emit makes the earth shrouded in a soft halo, which feels a bit sacred. These three star warships are completely different from what I saw in the dream at the beginning. They are no longer The mechanical structure is exposed, full of roughness and vicissitudes, but it is covered with a smooth silver-white shell. This is the glory starship that is fully charged and running normally. The silver-white shell is not only Just for the sake of aesthetics, its defensive ability can even be close to the Gospel after the arbitration mode is activated—of course, it is still slightly inferior to the latter. After all, the original intention of the birth of the Glory Starship is not to be a combat spaceship that serves as the vanguard of the battlefield. They are really powerful The place lies in its strategic value.
Although it took a long time to prepare, it only took a moment for Pandora and the others to transform into the starship form. Strictly speaking, just a few minutes ago, Pandora had just completed the great battle against Little Bubbles for candy, and now she It has been transformed into a star warship in outer space according to the schedule, leaving only Little Bubble standing on the ground with half a lollipop in its mouth, looking up at the sky and muttering.
"I thought those three girls would have to transform for at least half a day." Looking at the three giant moons in the sky, I rubbed my eyes and said to Sandora next to me, "How can it be over in a swish?"
Those three moons appeared in the sky at once! The sudden silver light almost scared me
"Have you forgotten the essence of Glory?" Sandora glanced at me sideways, "The speed of the spread of ideas is the speed of the deployment of the Glory starship. The only time it consumes is the preparation before deployment. Then From time to time, the apostles of Xiling need to constantly adjust their mental power form. It takes nearly a month to switch the huge mental power from a closed state to a semi-open state, but if you really want to release these spiritual powers, an instant is enough—or else every A Glory starship has to be built in the dock for several months like an ordinary starship, and there is no defense capability during this period, so the value of this ultimate weapon will be greatly reduced."
I nodded, deeply agreeing with Sandora's words, and it seems that the more important point is another point: If Glory needs several months to build up bit by bit, will that impatient little guy in Pandora have the mood to wait?
I looked up and looked at the three bright moons in the sky curiously.
The tallest one is Gaia, the second one is Alaya, and the smallest one is Pandora... Uh, what is going on with this embarrassing and godlike feeling? It's completely impossible to imagine the three cute girls hanging in the sky and illuminating all beings, bastard, should I complain about this situation
"Pandora, how's the situation?" Trying to get rid of the weird thoughts in my mind that "the three sisters shine on all things, and the big cute things save the common people", I was in space through a spiritual connection, and my body finally expanded billions of times, but it was still tragic. General Lori, who was the last among the three sisters, asked.
"The Arbiter has arrived, please guide us..."
What responded to me was not Pandora's usual unemotional voice, but a female voice that seemed to be mixed together, low and soft but with an incredible sense of solemnity.
"The biggest difference between the Arbitration Authority and the normal Glory Starship is that once activated, the spirits of the three sages will be fully integrated into one, while the Xiling Apostle in the normal Glory form always maintains an independent self-awareness," Sandora said. Seeing the weird expression on my face, I guessed why I was surprised without thinking, "They have now merged into a brand new mechanized consciousness, although they all maintain their original memories, but don't expect to hear One of them responded."
"Uh... so they have disappeared temporarily?" I suddenly felt a strange feeling in my heart, knowing that this is a common thing for the Xiling people to eat and drink, but when I think of Pandora's will has become so A mechanized AI…
"It's not right to say that they disappeared." Sandora seemed to be very distressed as to how to explain the current state of the three girls to me, "Well, you can think of them as a three-person council closed to the outside world. Now you treat them Every word you say will be jointly reviewed by this council, and then the review result will be announced by an artificial intelligence spokesperson established by them. During the whole process, you cannot communicate with any member of the council alone, and the members of the council cannot communicate with each other. Responding to you with my own personal opinion... that's about it, and that's how arbitration institutions work."
parliament...
I looked up and saw a little lunatic full of militaristic thoughts, a stupid angel, and a blue AI whose attributes were unknown but seemed to act mechanically. They formed a parliament that could judge the entire world...
Sandora, let's go against the sky
It has been one month and ten days since we left the black sun.
The huge dark celestial body collapsed completely as we expected about a month ago. The collapse of the black sun is completely different from the collapse of a normal star. There is no release of energy or devastating gravitational impact. Its demise It was like a soap bubble bursting silently, and the whole process was as quiet as a tomb—this is really in line with the "lawful death" attribute of the Black Sun itself.
When the several unmanned outposts we deployed near the black sun sent back the target area and it has become a normal law area, the energy of the abyss also arrived as expected. Their dark star cores have been strengthened for so long, and now the trapped birds Out of the cage, it was as energetic as if it had been injected with two hundred milliliters of chicken blood. An unmanned outpost we specially arranged on the shell of the black sun lost contact almost two seconds later. There is no doubt that it was just the radiation of the abyss energy , has already let the outpost self-destruct.
Fortunately, the barrier jointly arranged by Dingdang and Qianqian still worked. The space around the black sun has become a block zone. Dingdang deleted the quantum effect of that space, preventing the abyssal energy from passing through the quantum radiation. The method instantly polluted the entire universe, and then she set the speed of light in that space to ten meters per second. This speed is already the limit that Ding Dong can do against such a powerful abyssal energy. Now the abyssal energy near the black sun is increasing This "highest speed in the universe" penetrates outward slowly and firmly, but in the face of the iron-like laws of the universe, it is still impossible for it to escape from that cage for the time being.
Qianqian changes the curvature of time in the space corrected by Ding Dong. In that space, time is still flowing normally, but in our eyes, the time there is 1.5 times slower than the outside world, which gives The precious breathing time for the natives of the Koprulu sector.
One more day until "Hot Start".
The evacuation of the Protoss is drawing to a close. Nearly four-fifths of the Protoss "protoss" in the entire star region have now rushed or are rushing to several temporary shelters around Keprulu, where there are some emergency establishments established by the empire. It is not an easy task to complete such a large amount of work in one month on an ecological planet. Even with the speed of the construction of the spirit hosts, it is impossible to build shelters for the refugees of the entire galaxy in such a short period of time. In the end, it was Lilina who used the sacred seeds bestowed by her "benevolent and fraternal goddess" to barely establish an unstable ecological circle on several planets, which solved the urgent need for the survival of these refugees. Ships and those rudimentary ecological planets make up the eastern part of the largest refugee camp in history, while in the west of this refugee camp, the rudimentary colony named "New Eden" by Raynor is full of human exiles.
Although less than one-third of the people in human society were successfully mobilized in the end (in fact, this number is already shocking, and it is not only the personal charm of Uncle Renault that played a huge role in the entire mobilization process, There is also a little "gentle exhortation" from the Imperial Army to the local government), but the huge population base of human beings compared to Protos still makes the number of these refugees the most troublesome thing, and the Imperial Army even allocated nearly half of the transportation The ship sent all these people to the safe area. At this time, I even thanked that stupid traitor Mengsk, if it weren’t for his suspicious and sensational public opinion offensive, most of the upper-class citizens of Koprulu chose to stay in their homes , Resisting "invasion", these poor people in the marginal star area are absolutely impossible to obtain asylum opportunities.
"The Arbiter is ready, and the will of the Empire shall prevail."
The world's arbitration institutions have completed all the pre-startup and self-inspection work. Although the three of Pandora have not performed arbitration synchronization for hundreds of thousands of years, their cooperation is still familiar. When sending this message back, The three planetary fortresses located above the parent star are forming a stable triangular system, slowly orbiting our planet. This orbit that completely violates the normal laws of the universe is obviously driven by the power of the star warship itself, and with the three The girl who turned into a great god gradually activated her law module, and the cosmic space we live in also gradually produced various weird natural phenomena.
Planetary phantoms suddenly appearing in the void, hordes of formation-like shadows of spaceships, inexplicable flashes, and comets that occasionally cross the starry sky—there are no comets in this radius of several light years
Those are projections from all corners of the universe, they may not even be things of the current era, just like the phantom of a huge planet that passed tens of thousands of kilometers above the parent star a few minutes ago, and Qianqian discovered that the thing turned out to be a ten thousand A planet that was destroyed billions of years ago
"The last batch of human evacuees have left the blockade," reported the information link from the lower layer. "The Empire's second to sixth fleets have withdrawn from the Koprulu sector, and this area can be locked down at any time."
This is reported in the information link, but I know that even now, there are still scattered human fugitives who are posing their own private spaceships and approaching the empire's blockade.
It can't compare to the highly rational Protos, or the completely monolithic Zerg. Human psychology is fragile and changeable. Even in places where Mengsk has the strongest influence, there are humans with a fleeing mentality, and these Most of the people are wealthy, or they are the bosses of private companies, or they are well-informed and prominent children. It is normal for them to have private interstellar shuttles. These scattered fugitives have not been interrupted since a month ago. Sk no longer strictly prohibits such acts of treason, and these stowaways continue to pass through our outposts.
And now there is a communication port waiting for orders in front of me. As long as this port is finally confirmed, the entire Koprulu sector will be completely locked, and no one will be able to escape, including those who are accelerating crazily, even at the expense of burning the spaceship. Ordinary people fleeing.
"Ah Jun, there is no time," Sandora leaned over gently, "This is a necessary sacrifice, and we are responsible for the entire universe."
"I know," I took a deep breath, trying not to think about the people who still haven't been evacuated in this star sector and are eager to evacuate. Even if there are hundreds of millions of them, we...
"Attention all imperial outposts, I am your emperor, and now I give an order: The Koprulu Sector is completely blocked and the Koprulu Sector is completely blocked"
It turns out that after speaking out, it only takes such a little courage.
Surrounded by imperial commanders who are still working nervously but orderly, the command hall is as quiet as ever, but I know that just a second ago, this star area equivalent to the size of two galaxies has been sentenced to death , including the countless remaining lives here.
The locking of the empire's blockade is only the first step. Its purpose is only to prevent frequent mass exchanges from causing unstable cracks in the subsequent "cosmic division". Clank in also began her work: transforming the Koprulu Sector into a closed new universe.
This process is the highest authority of the world management gods. Even Xiling people's attainments in mysticism cannot explain the principle of this world division. In my perception, everything happens instantly. The spiritual connection that kept the smooth connection was suddenly weakened, which was caused by the sudden appearance of a world barrier between the connections, and through more advanced observation instruments, the anomaly was more obvious: the volume of the universe shrank suddenly, from the original vastness Infinity is suddenly reduced to the size of a galaxy, and beyond the galaxy is an undetectable world barrier. The detection of gravitational waves sent from one direction will be sent from behind in an instant, which is enough to prove that the entire galaxy has been destroyed. Presenting a closed state, the space here is continuous and closed on a scale of 160,000 light-years—nothing can escape from here.
Perhaps Mengsk's scientists will discover the anomalies in the universe before the formatting goes to the last moment. I wonder if they will regret their past decisions at that time
In the eyes of the exiles who have left the Koprulu sector, the changes in their homes are even more frightening: disappearing, disappearing in an instant
When the world was cut into two parts, the Koprulu star area was excluded from its original coordinates. In the eyes of the natives of Koprulu, this place that they called their hometown disappeared in an instant, and even There is not even a blank area: the space around the Koprulu star area faithfully fulfills the law of space elasticity, and instantly fills the gap formed by the disappearance of this star area.
"The closure of the world has been completed, and the establishment of the world barrier has been confirmed. The main fleet of the empire and its home planet have obtained the information cleansing exemption code, and the hot start process can be carried out at any time."
With such a report from the advanced information link, there is nothing to hesitate now.
No one can escape, the abyss, and the civilization here.
"Shallow, stop time warping, jingle, release the speed of light and quantum effects"
For a moment, I seemed to feel that the huge tyrannical energy was sweeping across the entire command hall, but that must be my illusion. The defensive barrier of the home planet is extremely powerful, and it can even support it for a long time in the gate of the abyss. Now The power of the abyss has been fully released, but only the blue ball that is closest to them cannot be infected.
The violent negative thoughts began to sweep over everything. In the form of quantum effects, they enveloped everything they could find at an infinitely fast speed, but if these abyssal energies had their own consciousness, they would be shocked to find that they were originally full of ambitions. The world that wanted to be destroyed turned into a narrow cage with a radius of only 160,000 light years, and in this cage, there was a ferocious devourer locked up with them
Three hours, just three hours later, the power of the abyss evenly covered every inch of space in this cosmic cage, and the strong idea of destruction was turbulent, spreading the uneasy breath all over the world. I really didn't expect their infection speed to reach such a speed At this point, even the most powerful Protos warrior, the longest persistence is only three hours
"This is a rare research opportunity..."
The Tavier mass projection next to me suddenly let out a long sigh. She was referring to the Protoss who were being transformed into monsters under the influence of a huge amount of radiation from the abyss. The process of a new species being eroded by the abyss meant to her It's a pretty interesting sample of research—not necessarily worthwhile, but certainly fun.
I gave this mad scientist a blank look, and then contacted the three sisters who illuminate everything: "Hot start, start"
(Well, there was a second update unexpectedly... just give me some hints...) V
