Under the joint order of the two emperors, the entire front of the Imperial Army shrank, and the celestial system fleet took the initiative to retreat to the vicinity of the Mobrador star system after launching an ineffective Emperor's Breath. Then, we began to voluntarily abandon one by one The heavy-duty space fortresses located in remote areas of the Milky Way, even if some of those fortresses are truly important space arsenals. This series of changes was completed in less than a day. Before the Vengeance Army reacted, the Imperial Army had concentrated all its main forces on Together, they made a posture of preparing for the final decisive battle, which was obviously beyond the enemy's expectations.
We do prepare for a showdown, but not here.
The dismantling of the Misty Star base has been completed. The general flagship of the Admiral Empire and a dozen large motherships that make up this giant city have left this turbulent hell planet, re-transformed in space, and combined into a battleship state. Only a few observation outposts and a teleportation device used to transfer the remains of the "Mausoleum" back to Shadow City remained under the thick clouds of the star. The space is full of mighty and majestic imperial spaceships, and the oppressive atmosphere enveloped the entire high orbit of Misty Star. The pitiful dozen or so sampan boats of Mobrado's "Space Army" who came to see them off were inconspicuous. Shrouded in the shadow of the Imperial Admiral's transverse arm, it looks like a fragile plant that is about to fall.
But this is not bad, at least the Pope reorganized the "Space Army" under the coalition government that had been abolished for more than 100 years in a few days, and taught them how to fly warships to their homeland in a short period of time. On the other hand, this is amazing efficiency. Due to the existence of the Doctrine of Conviction, which makes conventional space troops useless, the Canglan Church has for a long time prohibited the coalition government from deploying any armed aircraft in space.
The spherical shell covers the entire giant planet, and at a glance, there are endless silver-gray interstellar giant ships, and the imperial fleet that can make the calf muscles of new recruits who enter the battlefield just by looking at it is brought to these Mobrado governments. The soldiers of the army were greatly shocked. The edited war scenes they saw from the bulletin boards above the city were obviously not as exciting as the real scenes. There is something different in the eyes of some young people who took the initiative to join the army with a little blood and the Pope's instigation, which I have never seen in the eyes of any Mobra people before. Curiosity and enthusiasm for the unknown world without fear, it seems that the young generation in any world is the most malleable, and I don’t know what method the Pope used to make these people comfortable in a comfortable and peaceful life The Young Master Bing produced this transformation, but it must be a good thing.
"There are always restless young people. It took me three hundred years to let these fires learn how to hide themselves." On the bridge of the Imperial Admiral, the Holy Pope, who was allowed to board here for the first time, appeared A little excited, but also a little restrained, because the leaders of several other vassal races around him didn't look at him very warmly. Therefore, his tone of voice was a bit awkward when he spoke, "They were originally unstable elements under strict supervision, young heretics with active thoughts, they were very curious, and they were used to raising objections to the knowledge of sages, so in the original Mobra In many societies, they are outcast wild children... ”
"This kind of person is the easiest to save the world." I whispered to my elder sister next to me, "How many of the Gundams do you think went to the party school?"
My elder sister gave me a sneaky look, and said to the Pope: "The imperial army will go to another space parallel to the real world to resolve the battle, including the last garrison here. We will also withdraw, do you understand?"
Since the upcoming battle is no small matter, Sandora wants to maximize our success rate, so any army is indispensable. We estimate that once the shadow space is breached, the Vengeance Army will immediately return to defend their lair , so after we completely leave the real space, this place may become a safer place than it is now, but we know this, and the people of Mobrado don’t know, how to appease everyone depends on the Pope, I hope he won’t let us disappointment.
"Don't worry, the Mobrado people have been peaceful for too long, but mortals can always adapt to the environment quickly. I think they have the most basic awareness now."
The Holy Pope bowed to us expressionlessly (unmistakably) "The strength of the saint fleet has given them a new support, and I am trying to use another thing to inspire the blood of the next generation, such as the fanaticism of religion and jihad , it only needs to slightly change the religious propaganda we have been carrying out, a generation or two at most, and the effect will appear. I have selected a few "saints" as the front desk
"That's your business, don't marry me and report such details to me." Sandora waved her hand, causing the Pope to swallow the second half of the sentence back. "In short, you are a little more qualified now, maybe I will consider giving it to you." This is a re-examination opportunity. We will let some servants of the civilization community stay to protect this star system. They are one of the best and bravest warriors in the empire. However, after we leave, the chances of the enemy attacking here are very small, so we should give Please comfort yourself."
"Thank you for your grace." The Pope bowed slightly and saw that we had nothing else to say, so he left the bridge consciously. After a while, we saw a dozen or so sampans of Mobrado on the holographic projection The board left the Imperial fleet quickly.
"It's finally a bit of progress." Sandora glanced at the holographic projection, and then switched the screen on the officer's platform to another scene.
The images of Milia and Bubble appear on the screen. Both of them are currently floating inside the crystal prism. The former is still looking around slowly and curiously, while the latter seems to be asleep with his eyes closed. Behind them is Guang In the silver-white room, a large number of crystal prisms are scattered in a patchwork not far behind them: that is the entire Xiling host array.
"How do you feel?" I smiled and asked the blond girl looking around in the middle of the screen.
"It's so amazing." Milia knocked on the crystal barrier in front of her. "It seems that the thinking is divided into two parts. One part is in this pillar, and the other part has expanded to nowhere. There are crystal lattices everywhere."
"The servo support module of the host array, Milia's core consciousness has been extended there." Sandora explained in a low voice.
I nodded and looked at another picture in front of me: it was an unusually huge Xiling brood. It can be said that apart from its normal shape, its size had exceeded the necessary specifications for a brood. This building towered over the A piece of iron-gray smooth ground is surrounded by a large number of ancillary facilities floating with psionic patterns. The buildings seem to be soaked in some kind of very thick liquid, giving people the feeling of an underwater building.
And at the far end of the picture, where the iron-gray smooth ground extends to the end, there is a giant sphere with a third exposed. Its surface is smooth and covered with a beautiful blue shield, and it also emits a bright blue light. , like a giant blue sun rising from the horizon, that is Jingfeng.
As for the giant Xiling mother wing before, it is where Milia and Bubble are now.
The method Tavel found to open the shadow space is based on the interconnection between those containers. We have confirmed that the black metal box is actually a high-speed information interface that simulates the slot of the host computer. The process of Milia’s transmission through these boxes is actually It is the process of uploading compressed packages, so these containers are connected. After scanning the code of the container, we guessed that there should be at least one additional container, and this guess was proved in the hands of the Vengeance Army. That's right: both containers have a redundant information channel, constantly sending intelligence to a mysterious information port, and the information returned from the other end of this information port is consistent with the probe we put into the shadow space before. The returned information is consistent.
The third container is in the shadow space.
The data stored in Milia’s core can activate these channels. At that time, the container located in the shadow space will act as an information collection device, sending us the real-time space coordinates of the other end. These coordinates are compared with the coordinate system stored in Millia. Yes, we will get the landing landmark and shadow space entry code of the Vengeance Army's lair.
As for the Avengers, I’m afraid they will destroy the box in hand as soon as we start teleporting, but that’s okay, anyway, we only need a 48-hour teleportation gate. Even if the container in the shadow space is destroyed, Milia It is also very easy to deduce the void drift of the shadow space in the next forty-eight hours by helping with the calculation.
Apparently Milia herself can't go to the shadow space, it's too dangerous because she's "running"
The two boxes we have on hand are placed at the bottom of the host slot we specially made for her, and if she is allowed to enter the shadow space with the imperial fleet, she has a one-third chance of dying It was uploaded to the third container, which is the base camp of the revenge army, no one dared to take the risk. Therefore, she and Bubble will stay in the real space and that huge building is where the two of them and a large group of Xiling host parallel matrix work in the real space.
The core of Misty Star is a metal core that is smaller than the earth but has an amazing density. It has been transformed by imperial technicians into a Xiling host support facility with a large number of servo arrays, and the giant brood is built on the north magnetic pole of this star core. superior. At a location less than 10,000 kilometers away from the star core,
It is the crystal peak that has sunk to the "bottom of the sea". This special service star warship will act as a secondary servo array and amplifying antenna after the fog god star core, so that the shadow space information output by Milia can be distributed to all imperial spaceships On, you know, we still have a fleet of celestial body systems waiting to jump, and it is not easy for that thing to enter the shadow space.
Someone must have discovered that the weakest link in the whole plan is the security issue on Milia's side: she is responsible for maintaining the transmission channel in the real world, and if there is an accident here, the channel will be completely closed. 〗The last link between the real universe is over, we will be imprisoned in another world, and even be destroyed along with that world.
Sending a large number of imperial fleets to protect Misty Star is a direct solution, but it was quickly rejected by me, because when the enemy frantically counterattacks, a group of escort spaceships cannot guarantee absolute safety, and our fleet is already small. Half way out, we won't have to fight in the shadow space. In the end, Sandora and I felt that as long as we could keep the brood at the last moment, we used elite forces to protect the core of Misty Star. That's the Cicaro gang...
You have to admit that although the guy is a stubborn city buster, he is really professional in being a bodyguard. He can use his biceps to fight the Galaxy main cannon, and he can even carry a Genesis after the explosion. Let's not talk about how long I will lie in the maintenance center, anyway, I can really bear it.
As an insurance, we also kept Ilsen. Since he helped the urban management force for a few days, the guy from 123 and Cicaro developed a deep "enemy friendship" and they wanted to smash each other's head into the ground. After all, handsome men are born enemies. Although one takes the route of a vicissitudes uncle and the other takes the style of a handsome war god, the two still regard each other as natural enemies in various senses. It is not easy for them to cooperate, Mo Nina gave a punch, and I gave a certain red and white punch.
In short, the safety of the giant brood is guaranteed in the end. Even if Misty Star misses, we will have enough buffer time to withdraw from the shadow space. And the enemy may not necessarily launch an attack here: the possibility of them finding the information leakage point in a short time is not high.
In addition, a small group of "people" who were left in the real space were forcibly blocked when they came here this time, and a group of Gensokyo monsters who couldn't get rid of them in the end. I don't know if they are not afraid of death or have no concept of space war at all. A few guys who broke into Azeroth were unwilling to go back after they were kicked back. I was afraid that they would have an accident in the shadow space, so I forced them to stay at the Misty Star Outpost, and I also left a portal for them. If they are really attacked here, they can run back to Avalon. I hope these weird guys can save me some trouble.
"Parallel processing of preset data is normal and can start at any time. The downlink host is ready to connect."
The sound of Bubble’s report interrupted my distraction. I was used to thinking about the cow. I found that the screen had darkened at some point. Light Source: Teleportation has begun.
The transmission coordinates and cracking codes of the shadow space were uploaded to all the imperial warships, and then, countless spaceships were like ghosts fading away in the night, erasing their figures from the real space.
At the last moment when I was separated from the main material plane, I repeated to Milia again: "Remember, you only have forty-eight hours. When the time is over, we will be pulled back no matter whether we send a return signal or not!"
In the suddenly stronger interference, Milia's blurry image nodded, and then our last direct connection with the main material plane was interrupted: from now on all the bandwidth between the imperial fleet and the surface world will give way For the shadow channel, Milia and Xiling hosts will ensure that the shadow space will not continue to drift within the next forty-eight hours, otherwise, the imperial army will be trapped in this world with the revenge army.
"It doesn't look any different from the outside."
Looking at the quiet and deep universe on the star map, Qianqian said in a low voice.
"Because it's completely showing the shadow of the universe." Elder sister took a deep breath, "The scene here should be your territory in the old empire era?"
Her last words were addressed to Sandora, who nodded her head. Before she set off, she still had a somewhat gloomy look on her face, but now she has completely calmed down: "According to the star map, this should be the bright dust cluster of the small golden base. There should be a deep space city nearby in the n77e65 standard direction,
It's a massive production…”
The probes that went to investigate the situation discovered the deep space city almost as soon as Sandora's voice fell, but the images sent back showed that it was already in ruins.
Sandora just sighed, and ordered the Royal Fleet to join the Celestial System Fleet.
The celestial system fleet has also successfully entered the shadow space. The mere existence of the star fortress that is enough to distort the normal laws of the universe was originally impossible to enter "another world" so easily
Yes, but the shadow space belongs to a special world. It is built on a pile of information from the surface world. The unique physical disturbance of the psionic death star to the surface world will be suppressed to the minimum here, which is unintentional. Gave us a lot. The celestial system fleet has corrected its own coordinates when it "sinked" into the shadow space. It was more than ten light-years away from us before the transmission, but after the transmission, the distance from us is only thirty astronomical units. This is The limit of what Tavel can do. Through the exterior observation of the fleet, we can directly observe the fleet of celestial body systems with the naked eye without magnifying the image multiples: in the deep space, it looks like a bright blue ball.
Thirty planetary battleships are emerging from the "vacuum" mounting compartment of the psionic death star, so they cannot be observed yet.
The rendezvous of the two fleets went very smoothly, and it would take only a short while to arrive at this distance. It is a pity that the revenge army failed to seize this opportunity to launch an interception: Of course, the opponent may not have reacted yet.
After the two forces converged, the spaceship of the Royal Fleet parked on the second floor of the planetary defense circle, and moved forward together with the entire celestial system fleet in the high orbit of the "Teldrassil" star warship. The unique chaos of the civilization community The fleet and the combined fleet of the New Eden Federation advanced together with the latter along a very special orbit perpendicular to the equator of the star warships, together with the Royal Fleet serving as the main escort of the star warships, a three-dimensional defense network was formed. .
There are similar escort arrays over dozens of other star warships: the imperial spaceship orbits in a high orbit that is basically parallel to the equator, and the servant army runs on a path perpendicular to this orbit. The combat plan was widely accepted later, and it turns out that we can save a lot of energy by using the gravitational orbit of the star warship.
A large number of ultra-high-speed probes broke away from the mounting bay of the Digger-type special service ship (a reconnaissance ship converted from an expedition-class skeleton) like a swarm, and disappeared into space in a swarm. Immediately, the originally ambiguous shadow on the star map The space map is centered on the Imperial Fleet, and it instantly becomes clear like a car glass that has been wiped by windshield wipers.
Then, we discovered two things in total. The first one was a giant building nineteen light-years away in front of us. The surge of information generated near it made people cheer: we really found the control core of the shadow space in the first place. As for the second thing...
It is overwhelming interception firepower.
