"Mist Star" is the outermost planet in the Mobrado galaxy, and it is also the largest planet in this star system. It is a non-solid planet with an extremely high-mass core about the size of the Earth, a liquid nitrogen-helium-hydrogen ocean of tens of thousands of kilometers, and an "atmosphere" nearly 20,000 kilometers thick. It is the only star system except Mobrado. It is the largest celestial body outside the sun, and it is also the last planet to be investigated by the reconnaissance force sent by the empire to this star system.
We thought that there would not be too many ancient relics on Misty Star. After all, a non-solid planet that is an "ocean" except for gas lacks the necessary strategic value. It contains a large amount of helium and hydrogen resources. It's worthless, and the hurricane with a speed of 30 to 60 kilometers per hour on its surface will also make the imperial soldiers stationed on it have dry skin and split their heads. Anyway, no one wants to build a base on such a useless planet.
But the agents still made a huge discovery on Mist, a huge ancient ruin.
In the image sent back, we can see a large piece of mechanical structure connected together, generally in a circular shape, and the upper end is covered with rigid metal protrusions, making its surface look like a metal city floating on Misty Star. On the dense ocean under the thick atmosphere. But in fact it is a huge columnar body suspended vertically in a liquid ocean of nitrogen, helium and hydrogen due to high pressure.
The average radius of the section of this metal column is about 70 kilometers, and the length deep into the ocean reaches an astonishing nine kilometers, like a slender chopstick piercing vertically into the sea. This "chopstick"
The upper end is the "Sea City" we see from the hologram.
This huge man-made structure is very complex. It has a rigorous and heavy armor structure and shield system (which has been extinguished), which can well resist the Mist star hurricane and ocean turbulence. At first, its top was mistaken for a city building. The various metal protrusions are actually a series of weapons, which are extremely secretive.
This ancient relic is fairly well-preserved, and some functions may still be in operation. In the crazy hurricane and turbulence of Misty Planet, it has always maintained a stable posture, and even seldom has large ups and downs. We have displayed a large number of emblems that do not belong to the empire on the surface of this man-made object, and its overall style is not a product of Xiling, but its shield system and some structural materials come from Xiling technology.
Within this ancient artifact, agents discovered tens of millions of remains.
A needle can be heard in the living room, and everyone is holding their breath watching these scenes from four astronomical units away. They are [real] video data recorded by the agents who entered the ruins of the Misty Star, without any processing , but it is absolutely true and shocking in content. Of course, what really touched us was not the sight of corpses strewn all over the place: we have all seen more curious scenes than that, and what really silenced everyone was Sandora's whisper: "It's them, my former vassal race. "
"The main passage has been completely penetrated, and the isolation door was put down, but it was quickly torn apart by the invaders like paper." Bubble whispered, "A large dose of radiation was found at the scene, it seems that the armored scorpion invaded and destroyed the defense system first, Then the raven and the leader bee completed the next massacre."
A typical imperial plundering tactic, cleaning the living targets of the closed fortress.
In fact, I thought of one thing a long time ago, and discussed it with Sandora, that is, after the empire fell asleep, what kind of path did the affiliated civilizations that used to attach to the behemoth Xiling Empire take. A small number of them may still exist, and even have developed to a small extent today, but most of them will certainly not survive these years.
For the vassal civilization attached to the super civilization, the deformity of the technology tree and the rapid weakening of itself after losing the backing are almost unsolvable problems. Once the empire collapses, these relatively weak vassal civilizations will lose their technological power in a short period of time, and then be destroyed by the enemy's counterattack: following the empire, it is inevitable to fight against an unimaginably powerful enemy. When protecting, no one can harm the affiliated civilizations under the wings of the empire, and without this shield, none of the "advanced civilizations" that have been boosted by the seedlings can survive independently in the already too turbulent pluralistic world.
Therefore, after the collapse of the old empire, the destruction of countless affiliated civilizations is basically a certainty, and most of them are destroyed in the end. Even the records of the Protoss can't find their traces because the Protoss only updates their maps every 100 to 200 million years.
But no one expected that the corpses of the civilization affiliated to the former empire that we came into contact with for the first time would be presented in front of us in this way.
They died at the hands of their former masters.
It has to be said that Bubble told us not to delve deeper into this tangled issue at first, but the information she released had the opposite effect.
"This is the largest ancient relic discovered in the Mobrador galaxy." Bubble said in a rare serious tone, and for the first time in a long time, he did not play games online while working. "Mist star may be an ancient civilization. The last resistance base. At this time, they should have been blocked by the imperial fleet to the deep space and other worlds. They can only stay in the home galaxy. This site has a lot of anti-aircraft firepower, all of which are weapons against psionic shields. But these weapons have almost no signs of being used, and they are useless at all. Most of the corpses in the ruins are soldiers. Due to the low temperature and psionic radiation in the environment, these corpses are only dehydrated, but not severely decayed."
This explains why these corpses, which may have a history of hundreds of thousands of years, can be preserved to this day, but they are probably only complete in shape. On the holographic picture just now, the environment presents a dusty, dimly lit appearance. It is the organic dust turned from severely weathered corpses floating in the air. As long as there is a slight shock, such as the movement of agents opening the isolation noise door, a large cloud can be blown up, and many corpses will die the moment they are touched. Turned to dust in our presence.
Although I have seen far more cruel scenes than this, such silent scenes are still very uncomfortable.
"This is the only tomb of the ancient civilization found by the agents. There are no remains of the ancient Mobrado people found in the remains of other places. It has been too long, and many planets have been cleaned too thoroughly," Bubble said, while Real-time processing of information uploaded by lower-level information nodes "Mobrador six planets. Except for two non-solid planets, the other four planets all have traces of being bombed, although hundreds of thousands of years have been filled. We can still find evidence of those battlefields from under the earth’s crust. The first planet is the worst one. It was burned by the stars and then pushed towards the sun. It can be said that except for the remains of the old empire, the traces of ancient civilizations have all been scum. No more. The scientists of Mobrado have also explored the first planet. Although they are not as thorough as ours, they have discovered a lot of things. Now they speculate that the first planet is the origin of ancient civilizations. They analyzed it from a large number of ancient civilization documents, and the credibility should be very high. That is to say, the first planet was destroyed as a military vital point. The current Mobrado parent star is the third planet, and there are also The traces of being bombed by the imperial fleet are just not that serious. It seems that the goal of those crazy imperial soldiers was only to wipe out life on the planet, and they were not interested in destroying the entire planet...
"Then there is also a report scanned from the database of the Canglan Church's sanctuary. We picked up an important report saying that scholars in this world have found some clues, proving that the modern Mobrado people are actually descendants of ancient civilizations..."
"Descendants?!" Sandora suddenly interrupted Bubbles, "Didn't all ancient civilizations go extinct?"
Bubble shook his little head uncertainly: "It's just a guess, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the phenomenon that the modern Mobrado people can control part of Xiling equipment. The modern Mobrado people have a guess about their origin, they It is believed that after the demise of the ancient civilization, there are still some survivors. These survivors slept for a long time in the ruins of the sages, and then woke up. They lost their memory due to the long time, and thus became a new race.
But it is strange to say that the records of Mobrador's history during this period of time are extremely chaotic. It seems that the world was not peaceful at that time, and their evolution process was cut into sections. Records, but this statement is generally widely recognized, and I judge that its credibility is more than 83%... . .
Bubbles changed from her usual escapist character, and now she looks quite reliable, and she analyzes problems well and logically. As she organizes the information from the lower-level information nodes into the most concise words, everyone gradually understands this The situation of the nascent civilizations of the world.
The current Mobrado people are divided into many branches, including ordinary people, regenerated people, new humans, mutants, subhumans, etc. These branches have significant differences, but they still have the same gene source. The birth of these races is due to an event known as a "disaster". When and why this "disaster" occurred is unknown, but it may also be related to the imperial heritage, and it can be determined Born in the period after the demise of ancient civilizations and before the emergence of modern human subspecies. The ancestors of the Mobrado people died in large numbers in the "disaster", and the survivors mutated into various subspecies. This is the result of research by the scholars here, and it is very credible.
There is a special class called "Heirs" in Mobrado society. It is said to be a class, but it is not the same as a class. It refers to a kind of person with unique talents, not limited to any race. All modern Mobradians have the potential to become heirs upon birth. These gifted people are more likely than ordinary people to become priests and scholars, and they can learn how to use their spiritual power to control the ancient weapons unearthed in the holy relics more than ten times easier than ordinary people. Almost every one of them is Mobrado is a well-deserved elite in this religious society. In the hands of the world's largest religion, the Canglan Church, there are 12 strongest ancient weapons called "Sharp Sin" (it is guessed that someone might have unloaded the anti-aircraft guns from the imperial battleship), these ten The two weapons that are at the pinnacle of power in this world are controlled by twelve strongest paladins, and eleven of these paladins are "heirs" and one is the Pope's second cousin, you can see the inheritance How powerful is the power of genes: in every way.
The successors appeared because of their blood. The modern Mobrado people all inherit the genetic genes from the ancient people, just because of the ubiquitous psionic radiation on the planet, after a long evolutionary journey, these genes are in the new Mobu Rado people are hidden in their bodies, but some people are exceptions, and their genes are dominant, which gives them amazing talents.
If the guess is correct, Milia should also be an heir. Compared with her age, her ability to control the empire's heritage is too amazing. Uncle Zaku's intention to prevent her from talking about her identity is really hard work. But I still can't figure it out, Milia once said that she is a priest, she doesn't even have a sect, what kind of priest is a saint
"I used to give those servants some privileges, allowing them to control some of the imperial weapons, and the way to identify them was their mental fluctuations." Sandora recalled those long-ago events. Species with racial memory talent, it seems that they finally wrote this talent into their genes and passed it down."
"This explains Mobrado's "sacred armament, the source of technology" Bubble nodded, "Mobrado calls the technology of controlling ancient weapons through spiritual power a sacred armament, and Milia's satellite cannon is the sacred weapon." One of the weapons, those agents have never been able to find out who created the technique of holy weapons. Since Mobrado has historical records, some people are born to know how to use this ability, and they also know how to train ordinary people. People develop this technology. "
The modern Mobrado people are descendants of ancient civilizations. This incident is unexpected, but it seems to be somewhat reasonable. If we follow this line of thinking, the imperial army that lost control due to unknown reasons was not completely destroyed in the end. Natives of this galaxy
"With the combat power of the troops that executed the extermination order in the old empire, it is impossible to stay alive due to negligence." Sandora said lightly, "When they exterminated the Mobrador galaxy, they must have been stopped by something. The fact that the planet stops just as it's about to be pushed into the sun is evidence."
The elder sister suddenly said softly: "For example, you suddenly woke up?"
There was a flash of light in Sandora's eyes, showing that her mood was not as stable as the indifferent expression now. She didn't comment on what her sister said, but closed her eyes gently: "Whether they are awake or not in the end After a while, I will solve this problem with my own hands. The appearance of the fallen apostles is already the biggest shame of the empire, and I cannot accept that my subordinates do the same crazy things without being infected by the abyss.
Sandora's words touched me very much. If she really wants to go to war with her former army this time, the girl queen will undoubtedly be the most uncomfortable in her heart, but some things seem to be unavoidable.
This is different from every war everyone has ever experienced.
We have also fought against the old empire's forgiven team, but some of them are fallen apostles, traitors who have already stood on the opposite side of the empire, and they deserve to die. Some of them are the guards of the temple, and they are ancient spaceships that are out of control. Strictly speaking, it is not considered a regular army composed of Xiling apostles. Although the scale of the battle was large, in some ways it was nothing more than troubleshooting ancient equipment. But now, we are going to fight against Sandora's most loyal soldiers in the past.
I took out the playing card that Lin Xue gave me from my pocket, and drew out a card at random, but it depicted the pattern of sharp blades and gears.
"War will inevitably come, don't hesitate, because the enemy will not hesitate."
That girl, it must have taken a lot of effort to make this thing, the word "Yu" was crossed out four times hesitantly.
"Based on the information collected so far, the probability that Sister Sandora's former army has lost control has reached 84.65%." Bubble turned off the holographic projection, and said very seriously, "Far beyond war." The warning line. The troops at the outpost are ready and working overtime to ramp up production, but I fear they won't be strong enough to stand up to the enemy here."
I suddenly remembered that Bubble turned out to be Sandora's Xiling host. She knew the situation of the Vengeance Army well, so she immediately asked: "If the main force of the Vengeance Army stays in this world, how many troops will we need to deal with them? "
"Comparing numbers alone is meaningless. Space wars are infinitely variable." Sandora shook her head, and replied instead of Bubbles, "I can only say that the more the better. Costly attack, in order to achieve the battle goal, they can sacrifice themselves as precisely as a math problem from top to bottom, from mid-level and high-level commanders who can be resurrected to junior soldiers with only one life. This was originally my goal The most terrifying part of the army is now a headache for me. I don’t know if they still have this habit after losing control. If so, we will definitely not feel good.”
Listening to Sandora's words, I felt bitter in my heart, thinking why most of the Xiling apostles are this kind of lunatics...
"Actually, we should have a more optimistic guess." Seeing the depressed expression on my face, my elder sister suddenly showed a gentle smile, "Did no one ever think that the revenge army is only partially out of control?"
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on her.
"So far, the only out-of-control imperial soldiers we have really come into contact with is the pilot of the individual fighter plane, and the rest are the relics left in the Mobrador galaxy. They are all indirect evidence, which can only prove that the revenge army has done a good job of The aborigines here have been attacked, but we can't prove that they all participated in the attack. And we seem to have forgotten one thing: all Xiling devices found in Mobrado are offline, and their identification codes have been artificially erased , so that it cannot be controlled through the information link of the Xiling Apostles, but it is more suitable for use by vassal races without spiritual networks... "
"That is to say, perhaps the revenge army has been divided into two parts." Sandora suddenly understood what my sister meant, "or in other words, their behavior is divided into two parts, one half is slaughtering the servants, while the other half is trying to give them Leave what is enough to resist and let them destroy themselves—although this effort has failed, the Avengers may not be hopeless!"
