There are now theoretically five emperors in the new empire. In addition to Shandora and I, there are my retired elder sister, Uncle Harlan who is diligent in government affairs, and Bella Vera who is often in an AFK state in front of me. Among them
Due to historical issues, Sister-in-law can only be considered in name now, so she is excluded directly. Among the remaining people, Bella Vera is the laziest and least emperor-like. I usually think that I have no energy, but this queen in front of me
Your Majesty is even more ruthless: Have you ever seen someone who was training new recruits on the training ground, but suddenly wanted to be lazy, so he pretended to switch personalities on the spot and then walked home on his own? This guy can do it...
So not only is she very lazy, but more importantly, she has no professional ethics at all - if it weren't for the nature of the Xiling Apostle, which can ensure that she at least stays on top of her game, I wonder if this person would simply come to me and Sandora to apply for a job.
Go home and retire in a private galaxy...
"I can't help it. I was too tired before. You have to allow me to relax at this time," Bella Vera picked up snacks from Lilina and I's plates and threw them into her mouth without affecting her conversation. "
Just be satisfied. Originally, I had made up my mind to stay away from imperial affairs and work as a pastry chef here. At most, I would occasionally come out to save Sylvia. If it weren’t for you and Sandora,
It is really hard work to revive the empire, and your new empire is really interesting. Do you think I will easily come out and work as a coolie for you?"
While soothing the restless Lilina with my own snacks, I looked at Bellavera curiously: "To be honest, I think your state is quite magical... Although your personality will change drastically after being polluted by the abyss once, but
Look at Harlan, look at brothers Zadom and Carlo, no matter how their personalities have changed, their military style has not changed, right? Why have you changed so much?"
This is something I have never thought about: Bella Vera’s current mental state and living habits can no longer reflect the military demeanor of the past. Although I don’t know what the character of the Raven King was like back then, but it is definitely not the same.
There are many other Xiling apostles who have been transformed by the abyss. I have never seen anyone who is as lazy as her.
"On the one hand, I'm really a little tired, but on the other hand, it's Sylvia," Bellavilla said nonchalantly, "She's not just a new personality. She's also a complete soul with her own personality.
Thoughts and personality, so I usually influence her, and she also influences me, and it gradually becomes like this. The life of schizophrenia is not as easy as you think."
"Forget it, just don't let it slip anyway," I dropped the topic for the time being. Then I brought up the business, "You already know about the Void Cataclysm and the Abyss Xiling, don't you have anything to say?"
"What ideas can you have? I'm as surprised and overwhelmed as you are," Bellavera looked helpless. "The days in the abyss are hazy. We are like carbon-based organisms that have had part of their brain tissue removed.
Still moving in a state of chaos. Performing tasks, fighting and killing, there is no chance to understand things that we should not understand. Abyss Xiling may be an excellent calculator, but she is definitely not a smart ruler. She uses programs
She rules the abyss area in a chemical way. As a result, all the apostles except the researchers only know how to obey orders, but do not know how to explore the truth. We can only passively provide her with calculation power. But we don’t know what we are calculating——
For so many years in the Abyss, I have been running around for Daye, but in fact, like everyone else, I have no idea what Daye is. Even now I finally know the truth about it, I only found out after joining your camp."
The Abyss Zone under the rule of Abyss Xiling is like an experimental base: she is the top host of the base, and everything else is the equipment and observation samples under her control. She draws computing power from the nodes to deduce her great cause, but
Those nodes have no chance to understand what the data flowing in the core of their thinking is. Warlords in the abyss area fight, intrigues, and even vicious events such as annexation of factions and the demise of forces. However, Abyss Xiling has never
She tried to stop it, but this was because she did not realize the danger at all: when the old warlords died, new warlords would naturally rise. As long as the number of nodes in the abyss area did not decrease sharply, Abyss Xiling thought everything was normal. Just like human beings.
The brain - it thinks, judges, and pays attention to the world that is more macroscopic than itself, but it is never aware of the life and death of the brain cells that make up itself. As long as these cells maintain a certain scale and order in the general environment, then the brain
In other words, "everything is normal".
Bellavilla, who was freed from this ruling system, would certainly be filled with resentment.
But after complaining for a while, Bellavera changed the topic with some emotion: "Actually, it's thanks to this kind of programmed rule... She turned the entire abyss zone into an amazingly efficient computing machine.
No one needs to know extra things, so that as much computing resources as possible can be devoted to one thing. She is the only insider and executor of the 'big cause', so the entire plan will not be wasted at all.
If this were not the case, I am afraid that no one would be able to complete the 'great cause'... Analyzing the data sent from the other side, reconstructing the void model, and understanding the relationship between the abyss and building bridges are not simple things that can be done.
"
"So I should thank her for her iron-fisted policy." I pulled the corner of my mouth with a smile, and then stuffed the last piece of snack into Lilina's mouth before Bellavera could react, "Don't compete with the guests.
No? You are more or less a store manager, do you do this kind of business?"
"Tch, you are more or less a landlord, will you die if you are too generous?" Bella Villa sneered, and then frowned, "The iron-fisted rule of Abyss Xiling has indeed ensured that the great cause can go smoothly to this day, but I can't say anything.
I plan to go back... You don’t know how bad the living environment in the abyss is. One of the three of you will definitely want to kill you - that’s the rhythm."
Me: "..." This guy has absorbed the earth's culture very thoroughly.
I was planning to discuss the humanistic environment issues in the Abyss with Bella Villa, when I suddenly heard a pleasant sound of wind chimes coming from the door of the shop, and then a familiar voice sounded: "It seems that someone has a lot of resentment towards me.
It’s serious.”
I followed the sound and saw a girl standing at the door: black dress, black eyes, long straight eyes, as if shrouded in a peaceful dark atmosphere. And there was a big box next to her...
I was immediately surprised: "Abyss Xiling? Aren't you in the research institute?"
"I'm not a prisoner. I always have the freedom to come out and wander around after cooperating with the research, right?" Abyss Xiling shrugged, "And your good scientist also installed a bunch of monitors and destructive devices in my box.
Now I am walking around carrying the cell on my back."
Bellavilla stared at the person who appeared at the door in shock. It took a long time to realize: "So you look like this?"
I glanced at her: "You don't know? Didn't you know about her coming from the information link?"
"At that time, I only paid attention to the text and did not look at the pictures."
Lilina immediately seized the opportunity and turned to complain about Abyss Xiling: "Look at how failed you are as the boss. After so many years, my subordinates don't even know what you look like - my boss is much better than you!"
"It doesn't matter," Abyss Xiling pushed her box over. "I just heard from Tavel that there is a special guy here, and I want to come and have a look... Oh, by the way, there are many people outside, and I don't care.
You know, there are really too many weird people in this city."
After hearing this, I quickly stretched my neck to look out of the window, and saw a group of people walking towards me. The first ones were Uncle Kenser and Lin. Behind them were the two good popes who were dedicated to their duties, and behind them were
Bingtis was carefree, and finally there were two acquaintances whom he hadn't seen for a while: Fina and Biberu.
By the way, I didn't expect Biberu to come too - he is now the leader of the civilized community, and he is as busy as anything every day. This time he is probably here to visit his former Majesty the Queen.
This huge crowd... not really a huge crowd. Six people and one ball walked into Sylvia's shop. Suddenly this cold dessert house became lively. I didn't even know they were there.
How did they just happen to get together? Anyway, looking at the way they talked and laughed all the way, you can tell that these "people" get along well. Among them, Bingtis's big mouth who knows everyone well must have contributed a lot.
"Hey! Chen! I have sensed that you are nearby for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be here," Bingtis's loud voice was indeed the first one to ring out. Then she arranged seats for others like the eldest sister, "
Kense and Lin, you two lead your pope over there. I go with this little queen to Chen. Hey, why hasn’t that ball over there come in yet?”
Biberu's angry voice sounded outside the door: "Someone please help open the door wider, I can't get in..."
Fina got up and opened the door for Biberu, while I looked in a daze as a large group of people scrolled horizontally two or three meters in front of me like a revolving door. After holding it in for a long time, I finally remembered what I should say, so I grabbed the man who was walking.
Bingtis walked past: "How did such a large group of people get together?"
"I heard that Kense and the two younger brothers from the Lin family were visiting, so I rushed over to join in the fun. Then I met Fina and Biberu shopping on the way, so I dragged them along to go shopping together," Bingtis pointed at the person who was shopping.
Fina helped Biberu float in slowly, "This little girl is quite interesting. When we first met, she was riding on that big iron ball. I don't know how she kept her balance."
I stayed for a while, finally confirming that Fina had completely integrated into the "atmosphere" of the city, and then patted Bellavilla, who was a little dazed: "I said, you are the store manager, aren't you getting up to greet the customers at this time?"
When Bingtis heard this, he also started to boo, and slapped the table twice: "That's right, I brought you big business today. You may not have so many customers in a normal day, right? Hurry up and have two
One nut muffin, one chocolate cake, two skewers of chicken racks, three egg tarts, two large kidneys, a plate of fried stinky tofu, and lastly, a glass of draft beer for each of us... Let’s do this for now, and we’ll ask for more later if we don’t have enough.”
Bellavilla glared at her with sharp eyes: "It would be better if you didn't come. Have you ever given me money?!"
"Ah, are you on duty 'outside' today?" Bingdis was stunned for a moment, "Where's that cute guy? Is he sleeping?"
It was quite lively on the other side when Bingtis and Belavera chatted. Uncle Kense and Lin let their pope sit across the table, which made the two mortals look very embarrassed. The country man who was estimated to be in his nineties
Uncle Gandalf sat down on his seat tremblingly and asked nervously: "Lord, do I really have this honor?"
The Dragon God Pope, who looks like an Amazon female warrior, frowned and looked for a place for his chariot axe: "I said, is it okay to put the ax next to the counter? This thing is heavy. Do you have to pay for breaking this thing?"
Biberu finally moved his huge body into the store. At this time, he was carefully floating in mid-air looking for a place. Fina gave him directions while shouting: "Let's go, let's be careful."
...Bi Bolu, float lower, you are about to hit the chandelier!"
"When will the things I want come to you?"
"Lin, don't touch the things on the counter, or you may break them."
"Lord, why do I feel a little dizzy..."
At this time, Lilina didn't know what the mood was, and she suddenly jumped on the chair and shouted loudly: "Wait a minute, I'll call my God here. She likes the excitement the most!"
I pulled the guy down and turned to look at Bella Vera. The latter finally realized that if she didn't take action, her small shop would be demolished, so she decisively snapped her fingers and immediately I
I saw two teleportation light curtains unfolding next to me. Two mass-produced ravens walked out of the teleportation light curtains and saluted Bellavilla respectfully: "Mother body. You summoned us?"
Bellavilla pointed at the messy scene: "Go pick up the guests."
I immediately sent a message to the nearby security personnel and the construction department, asking them to come over tonight to help repair the house: with a bunch of bad guests who are constantly in trouble and two magical girls who are technological idiots, this house will not last until the afternoon.
I ate two kilograms of dog food in public!
Sure enough, as soon as I sent the message, I heard a "bang" from the coffee machine: a clumsy raven tried to use elemental resonance to quickly boil water, and now we have a liquid coffee machine...
I can tell you one thing here. That is, no matter what the situation, as long as there are more than three people at the scene and Bingtis is present, the atmosphere will become heated very quickly, and this time is of course no exception. Those two
While the clumsy raven was tossing around with items in the store, the crowd had already become lively. A group of guys who had known each other for a long time or had just met started chatting enthusiastically. Lilina crawled between the tables like a nimble little animal.
Drilling in, Bingtis teased the honest Lin or the inarticulate Biberu from time to time. The good dessert shop made the group of people toss like a barbecue stall at 8:30 at night. Abyss Xiling was almost dumbfounded
Looking at all this with an expression on my face, I touched her with a funny expression: "How do you feel?"
"How can it be so chaotic?" The black-haired girl looked incredulous, "Where is their discipline?"
"Why do they need discipline?" Bellavilla's voice was firm, "They are just guests, not soldiers."
Abyss Xiling glanced at Bellavilla, perhaps remembering what he heard when he came in just now: "Speaking of which... you have a lot of opinions about me."
Bellavilla bit her lip, and finally her eyes paused on me, and finally sighed: "Oh, forget it, it's a thing of the past. Anyway, you are here to help this time, let's treat you as a guest -
What should we eat? Let me tell you in advance that this is a dessert shop. The draft beer and big kidneys that the female gangster mentioned just now are not available here."
Abyss Xiling was surprised: "Eating? Me?"
"Very strange?" Bella Villa seemed more surprised than Abyss Xiling, "Your sister comes here every day to buy cakes. I thought you two were at least the same in life form."
Abyss Xiling turned around and patted his big box: "I'm just an interactive interface similar to mass projection... And Xiling should be just an interactive interface like me. Why does she eat?"
"Why can mass projections eat? Why can't a thousand-year-old demon fox defeat a dog? Why do twenty elites from all walks of life teach a funny Bichon bear child? Why can a doll that needs to be wound up drink two kilograms of yogurt every day?" I
Counting his fingers, he listed it with Abyss Xiling, "I used to have more problems than you, but now I know that everything has no reason. Don't talk about the ideal process. As long as you are willing, you can do whatever you want, even if you directly fuse and fission the food you eat.
It doesn’t matter if you drop it or throw it into a black hole, you can eat whatever you want. This is the first step in living in the Shadow City: abandon your three views, and don’t try to rebuild. Believe me, your reconstruction speed will never keep up with the destruction speed.
.”
Abyss Xiling listened to me in a daze as I finished speaking this set of fallacies. In the end, the expression on his face was a little dull. Seeing this scene, I felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment: It's not easy. With a brain like ours, we can actually do this.
A scheming guy shows such a sluggish expression. Although this does not necessarily mean that my strategy has increased, it definitely means that Abyss Xiling's brainpower is declining... I am really suitable for post-disaster reconstruction of other people's views.
.
Bellavilla asked again impatiently: "So... what do you want?"
Abyss Xiling looked around helplessly, and finally pointed to the plate in the hand of a mass-produced raven that was running past quickly: "Then let's have these in her hand."
Bellavilla raised her chin at me and said, "Put it on your account." Then she went behind the counter to prepare snacks.
I looked at this wonderful scene in front of me: Xiling apostles, half Xiling apostles, gods, demigods, humans, dragons, and even a big iron ball, and finally the supreme ruler of the abyss... it was such a mess
A group of people gathered in a small store with only a few dozen square meters, and visually it was impossible to fight for the time being. This must be an unprecedented and unprecedented event.
While watching Lin and her Amazon female pope (this combination of words is quite creative, isn't it?) whispering and chatting there, an originally unrelated event suddenly flashed through my mind like lightning.
(I heard that asking for monthly votes at the end of the chapter can effectively prevent you from forgetting to vote after reading - the day to ask for monthly votes is here!!)
