The destruction of my hometown world may be related to a mysterious super civilization - this is a bold speculation that Father God and I made after comprehensively considering a lot of evidence, but the speculation is just speculation, and there is no evidence that can directly prove that it was the one who left the traces.
A super civilization led to the destruction of her home world. Shandora could naturally think of this, so when she heard the news, she remained calm as always.
It is important to find out the truth about our home world, but there are priorities. What we are facing now is a more urgent situation: the fallen apostles are still convulsing one after another. Do not let this close confidant
Once the serious trouble is solved, even if we know where the coordinates of our home world are, we probably won't dare to rashly distract ourselves and go over there to investigate.
"It's good to know that the progress on the Protoss side is going smoothly," Sandora subconsciously drew circles on the table with her fingers, "Besides, let's take a look at the situation first regarding the joint operation. If the fallen apostles don't really rush over,
Then follow Father God’s suggestion, wait for a period of time to let the enemy relax their vigilance, and then let the Protoss fight up front, and we can attack later. Anyway, the Protoss has a strong foundation, so it is perfect for them to fight this forward."
Bingtis muttered next to him: "Why do I sound like I want our protoss to rush out to mines first..."
Sandora and I looked at each other, and Bingtis nodded vigorously at the same time: "Yes, that's what it means!"
The female hooligan was dumbfounded at the time: "Damn it, you two admitted it shamelessly... Do you know that you are cheating your teammates so much?"
"It was originally agreed with him," I rolled my eyes at Bingtis, "The Gods have strong foundations and are the first victims of this raid, so it is logical to go out to fight in the front line first. The emperor has quick reactions and is good at surprise attacks.
So attacking after a mistake is a tactic. Going over mines is a popular saying..."
After saying that, I ignored Bingtis and turned to Sandora: "There is one last thing, about the foundation of the God Realm..."
Next, I told Sandora about the situation of the Abyss Gate that I saw at the base of the God Realm, as well as Father God’s research conclusion on the Abyss Gate, and emphasized the "stasis" of that strange space.
State, before this moment I had never told anyone about this matter, not even the female gangster who had stayed with me in the God Realm for two days knew about it, so everyone at the scene, including Bingtis, was suddenly
Attracted, and shocked by this big truth, the female gangster even forgot that she was busy arguing before.
Shandora frowned and thought the whole time when I told about the situation of the oldest abyss gate. When I finished, she raised her eyes: "So, the bottom of that abyss gate is not like a normal abyss environment at all?"
"If the abyss is regarded as magma, the bottom of the oldest abyss gate is like a cooled and solidified magma cave," I nodded, "and there is no 'discontinuity zone' phenomenon observed in that space. Preliminary estimation
It is independent from the normal abyssal realm."
"Wait, wait," Sandora raised her hand to indicate that she needed to think about it, "I feel like something is not quite right... By the way. I remembered, hadn't God Realm also salvaged someone from' before?
Is it the beacon of the civilization on the other side? That beacon floated up from the foundation of the God Realm. If there is an independent space under the ancient abyss gate, how could the beacon of the civilization on the other side emerge from there? It was before
How did you get in?"
As expected, Sandora also thought of this problem. This is also one of the most unexplainable situations of the Gate of the Abyss. I scratched my chin and slowly said my opinion: "I have been thinking about this matter for a long time.
, since that space is closed, in theory it should be isolated from the civilization on the other side. The origin of the beacon salvaged by the Protoss before is very problematic, but I remember talking about one point when discussing with Father God at that time: that space
The closed state of the abyss is not complete, and its entrance, the gate of the abyss, is the only open point. The gate of the abyss itself is a two-dimensional plane, and it is not restricted by various spatial laws in the real world at all. Perhaps
It is for this reason that when the Gate of the Abyss opens, it will 'pull' things that should have emerged from other gates."
"This is also possible. After all, the spatial properties of the Gate of the Abyss are unknown, but I always feel that something is wrong," Sandora shook her head. "In this way, the oldest Gate of the Abyss is different from other Gates of the Abyss.
If they are connected together, then it should 'pull' the pollution from other abyss gates, but the fact is: so far, that abyss gate is unprecedentedly stable, and it is placed at the base of the God Realm.
, almost no harm at all.”
"What are you talking about?" Bingtis lay lazily on the table, just turning his face towards me and Sandora, "Before that beacon emerged, the abyss at the base of the God Realm
There was a strange movement at the door. At that time, Father God discovered that the door suddenly moved and showed signs of opening, so he sent people to investigate the situation and salvage the beacon. In other words, the space under the door is now
It is true that it is closed, but it may have been opened during the 'abnormal movement', or it may be one-way closed: when we observe it on this side, it is closed, but on the other side it may be open."
"The other side?" Sandora raised her eyebrows, "Which side?"
Bingtis stretched out: "It's the civilization on the other side. The beacon was sent by the civilization on the other side. Perhaps from their perspective, all the abyss gates here are the same. There is no inertia, cooling, stability and activity at all.
They just found a gate and threw the beacon over - of course these are just guesses and I take no responsibility."
What Bingtis said was just a guess, but Sandora had obviously taken it seriously: "I think this conjecture is also very possible. After all, many rules will fail in the abyss environment, and no one knows what the 'civilization on the other side' is.
What kind of existence does the world and the abyss look like in their eyes... Let's do this. I will ask Tavel to organize a group of scientists to go there. Father God also happens to invite the empire to study the basement of his house. Let's try to put that weird
Let’s figure out the situation in space.”
So the last thing has been decided. Now all we can do is wait for the result quietly. It seems meaningless to continue to consume brain cells here. In addition, Bingtis has been lying there half-dead...
… Sandora and I decided to go home first.
We waited at home for half a day. Except for the gang of idle dolls and the little ghost who focused on taking care of the children and cleaning up the housework, everyone was waiting for the latest news from the front line, waiting for the fallen apostle to have another convulsion, etc.
Waiting for the other side to either fight or withdraw - it would be better for you to engage in a full-scale war than to hang on like this now, right? As a result, we waited until the afternoon. On the other hand, the situation in the abyss area was calm.
The armies of the fallen apostles have dispersed and retreated inland. The reconnaissance troops in the Garden of Death and the frontline used maximum power telemetry to find no signs of another enemy army gathering. The previous three vigorous army gatherings and scattered retreats actually seemed like a farce.
Even the final ending was inexplicable - several legions of the emperor's army and a larger number of defense forces were left hanging on the border without any embarrassment, and the fallen apostles didn't even fart...
…
The wars of the Xiling Apostles have always been super-speed wars. From the declaration of war to the gathering of the army to the battle between the two sides, it is often completed within a few hours. However, now that half a day has passed, there is no dust on the fallen apostles. This is quite embarrassing.
It's in line with common sense, but no one on the Imperial side dares to relax like this. Under Sandora's death order, the frontline troops still maintain a high degree of vigilance and guard the border.
The online universes are blocked, the macro world network is still in the second level alert state, and the Death Garden system has even canceled the next shutdown self-inspection plan - according to Sandora's order, this situation will continue for a few more days.
God, at least wait until the intelligence unit of the Abyss Independent Regiment makes further progress.
Bingtis stayed at home doing nothing for a long time. This female gangster looked carefree, but she must have been on high alert like everyone else: She is the kind of character who will go to her friends when they are in trouble.
I doubt this. But at the same time, Bingtis is a seriously impatient guy. After there was no movement from the fallen apostle for a long time, she really began to become unable to sit still. She wandered around in the living room like a ghost, while wandering around.
While crying and howling: "Father God, why is there no end to this? What kind of people are there with the fallen apostles? Even a war is going to be a mess!"
I was playing chess with Uncle Kense at the small table in the corner of the living room, burning incense and making tea. The atmosphere was peaceful and elegant, which was completely different from that violent female gangster Bingtis. I waited until Uncle Kense turned around with a smile on his face.
After the chess piece was settled, I raised my eyes and glanced at Bingtis: "Okay, just be quiet for a while, I really hope that the fallen apostle can't fight... Hehe, the move that senior made just now was really exquisite, look.
It seems that I lost this game again, and this time I am really convinced that I lost..."
Uncle Kenser smiled slightly, and the five black stones on the chessboard had already joined together vertically and horizontally in an unstoppable manner. Bingtis rushed up and grabbed the tea in my hand and drank half of it. Then he looked at the two of us sideways and said, "Let's play the game of backgammon."
You'll get a bad taste of it."
"The point of playing chess is not what you play, but the artistic conception." I gave Bingtis a serious look, "Father God said something similar. Leave some for me, the tea leaves are picked from the World Tree...
…”
"Father God is a famous bad chess player in the three worlds. You should learn from him." Bingtis put the teapot on the table. "Do you think the fallen apostle can still fight?"
I said slowly while cleaning up the chessboard: "I feel more and more now that this is probably not a conspiracy, but just a convulsion. If this is premeditated, then it can only be said that this conspiracy is too inexplicable. Passed away
The garden has scanned all the worlds on the border and found no traces of infection. Now we are waiting for the other waves of scouts sent by Harlan to report back. Sister, can you stop going around like this? I see.
You almost have a double image..."
Bingtis shrugged indifferently, but still wandered to other places obediently: she ran to circle in front of Sandora...
Don't look at what I say so relaxed, but in fact no one is really relaxed at this time. The dolls at home seem to know that something big is going on, and they seem to be particularly sensible and quiet today: Little Bubbles and little dolls are throwing each other.
After two anti-infantry booby traps, the fuss stopped.
In this way, the day passed in a semi-depressive atmosphere, followed by an equally sleepless night.
The next morning, the sun rose as usual, there was no alarm message on the data link, and the news from the border was that everything was peaceful.
With the little doll on my shoulder and the little bubble hanging around my neck, I came down from the second floor alone with great momentum, followed the smell of rice and ran to the restaurant to have breakfast. I fed my daughter in a dazed state.
After a few mouthfuls of food, he finally realized: "Is there really no movement from the fallen apostles?"
"It seems that there is really no movement at the moment," Sandora had already finished her meal. She was studying something with a data terminal in front of the window not far away. The early morning sunlight slanted through the glass on her blond hair.
on the top, as if her whole body was wrapped in a light golden halo, "I am looking at the tracking report of the abyss area in the past month, trying to find anything that we have missed."
I stretched my neck and looked at her curiously: of course I couldn't see anything: "Did you find anything?"
"There have been a lot of internal movements among the fallen apostles for a period of time. Telemetry records show that there are large-scale fleets traveling between their worlds... However, these things are far from being called 'suspicious phenomena'. They are all routine military movements.
, and it is not frequent enough to make people alert. Finally, there is a little discovery: the activity frequency of the fallen apostles in the seven days before attacking the border of the gods reached an abnormal low. Not only were there few signs of activity within the territory, but also at the border.
There are fewer defense changes at outposts than usual.”
I swayed behind Sandora with a big flower roll in my mouth: "What do you think this means? The fallen apostles were holding back their ultimate moves to defeat the gods in those days?"
Shandora immediately turned her head when she smelled the fragrance of the Hanamaki. She grabbed two bites of my breakfast with the speed of lightning and stole the Jingle Bells. When she handed the rest back, only the crescent moon was left in the fist-sized Hanamaki.
Then she explained to me while swallowing hard (it was really hard for her to speak despite her situation): "It can't prove anything. I just want to say that in fact, a lot has happened in the Abyss Zone in this month.
It is a small anomaly that seems very inconspicuous. None of these anomalies are worth making a fuss about individually. Even if taken together, they are not a threat. But now that the fallen apostle has convulsions, I can't help but put what I discovered before.
Those low-alert reports have been compiled. Maybe they are not isolated incidents. Behind these small anomalies, there may be a drastic change in the abyssal zone - we cannot directly detect the details of the abyssal zone.
We can only slowly deduce it based on these clues."
I nodded and was about to say something else when I suddenly heard Bingtis yelling from the second floor: "Oh, shit! News is coming from the God Realm! Big news!"
"What's wrong with that female gangster?" I couldn't help but mutter as I looked up towards the second floor, but Sandora stood up with a serious expression: "It's not like she's crazy. She's more nervous than this."
At this time, the figure of Bingtis had appeared at the top of the stairs, and then swooped down from above like a gust of wind. The fox fairy who was lying on the last step of the stairs and yawning felt that the danger was approaching, and the hair on his body suddenly stood up.
: But after all, I didn’t have time to dodge. I watched the poor demon fox girl turn into a flash of yellow light and fly out from the open window...
A moment later, a "plop" sound was heard from the yard: Master Fox Fairy flew quite accurately and fell directly into the fountain she dug out back then.
"Ah, did you hit something just now?" Bingtis was stunned in front of the stairs, and then shook his head indifferently, "Well, anyway, the family is a bunch of guys who resist beating, nothing will happen... Chen, Shan
Dora, there is big information coming from the God Realm!"
I held a moment of silence for the poor demon fox girl, and then turned my attention to Bingtis: "The fallen apostle rushed to the God Realm again this time? Let me remind the God Realm that the fallen apostle may be having convulsions...
"
"No," Bingtis sat down next to Sandora, "The reconnaissance troops of the Gods have been posted to the edge of the abyss area, and they found that the fallen apostles were fighting with people - it was so hot!"
"Fighting with someone?" Sandora and I couldn't help but look at each other and said in unison, "With whom?!"
"I don't know yet," Bingtis waved his hand, "After all, like you, we also have telemetry and induction of the abyss area. That place is heavily guarded with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. It is no longer easy for the scouts to monitor remotely.
Now it can only be confirmed that a large fleet of fallen apostles gathered in a deserted and deserted area to fight in full swing. The energy response is definitely a war. Anyway, they will not collectively set off fireworks with apocalyptic level energy.
.”
"How come we didn't notice this?" I glanced at Sandora, "Logically we should have seen such a big movement."
Before Shandora could speak, Bingtis glanced at me with disdain: "Are you out of your mind? That's a section monitored by God Realm. It doesn't overlap with your boundary line, and it's far away. Anyway, I don't care.
After all, this is a good opportunity. Father God is now preparing to launch a surprise attack. Not to mention directly entering the abyss area, at least to cripple a few legions on their border. In addition, we also sent people to take a roundabout way to check the corruption.
Who is the apostle at war with? If he is bullying mortals again, he must be rescued quickly."
"So the fallen apostle stopped convulsing on our border because he was restrained elsewhere?" I glanced at Sandora happily, "Then this is good news... Well, Sandora
What are you thinking about?"
I noticed that Shandora was frowning and thinking, and I couldn't help but be very curious.
"I suddenly felt..." Sandora looked up and looked at Bingtis and me, "Are the fallen apostles in internal strife?" (To be continued...)
