Chapter 11 The army of rubbing rice is coming (2.0)
(Continue to remind - this is version 2.0. However, this part of the chapter has been revised in the original version, so you can't see much difference, but readers who have read the earliest version should be able to find a huge difference.)
I should have thought of it earlier...
Pandora told me her identity when she first met me - General Xiling.
What is the most important element of being a general? Of course it is not the belly of a general - besides, a loli who is just tall enough to reach the dining table at home certainly does not have such a structure, so the most important element of a general should be a soldier...
So, in fact, the fairy sister named Gaia sent me not just a Xiling apostle named Pandora, but an entire army including this general!
Although this is something that is easy to figure out, Pandora's appearance still made me involuntarily ignore the fact that she is actually an imperial general. The other party did not expect that I did not even know this common sense, so there was no
Explain it specifically to me.
It seems that I still underestimated the ability of those unknown beings to cause me trouble... an army! Let’s not talk about supporting them, but in terms of accommodation for so many people, where do you want me to throw them?!
It seems like a good idea to send them to Shanxi to dig coal. I'm just worried that they will dig all the way from Shanxi to Brazil. Based on Pandora's mobility, I judge that Xiling soldiers probably have this spirit...
The old lady on the podium has already begun to perform her skillful London accent at the speed of speaking Allegro, and in my spiritual world, the conversation between myself and Pandora is no slower than that of the old English lady.
"Pandora, can you stop your army from coming? I always feel... it's a bit too exaggerated..."
"The space jump cannot be stopped."
"Then, is it okay to go back immediately when they come? Well - I don't have any objection to them, it's just that there is really no place to stay. How about we organize a three-day tour of the earth for them before they come, and then everyone goes back to their respective places?
Home, it’s not a wasted trip, right?”
"There is no outpost on this planet, and the home planet equipment has not yet been renovated. Therefore, this jump of the Imperial Expeditionary Force is one-way. If you are sure that you want them to return as soon as possible, please first establish the Xiling outpost. After establishing the base, you can
Start a war at any time and turn this world into the new frontier of the empire."
…Why does it feel like this topic has been discussed before?
Today, when everyone is peaceful, friendly and the society is developing harmoniously, I am always surrounded by an unknown creature who is obsessed with establishing bases and launching wars to expand territory. I am under great pressure.
"In other words, no matter what, your army must come here?"
"Yes."
"Then...how many people do they have?" I began to carefully calculate how much money it would take to feed an army, and finally came to the conclusion that selling myself would probably not be enough to feed them. If I wanted to feed them, I should first fight for the right to issue currency.
…
Different from usual, Pandora was silent for a long time without answering this time. I suddenly started to sweat on my forehead: haven't you finished counting yet? With your calculation speed, you haven't even finished counting yet?
"300."
This number was so unexpected that I didn't react for a while.
"How many?"
"300"
"Ten thousand?"
"300, that's 300 people." Pandora didn't mean to be impatient at all, she was as calm as ever.
"300! Are you kidding me? There are only 300 people in the so-called Xiling Empire Expeditionary Force?"
I feel like I am an unlucky guy who has already been sentenced to death. The second before I look at the executioner behind me and prepare to use the knife, a groaning and panting eunuch suddenly rushes over, holding up Emperor Zhang in his hand.
Scratch paper: "Save someone under the knife!!"
"The 300 people refers to our number before deployment."
"Expand?" I asked strangely. I had not made any progress in the two days since I met Pandora. I just heard a lot of weird nouns, but my vocabulary had improved a lot.
"Large-scale legion teleportation consumes a huge amount of energy. For a war, this kind of waste must be avoided. Therefore, we adopt the legion superposition method. Our grassroots soldiers are all mindless puppets. In the legion,
During the transmission process, they are stored in the space rift created by their commander. Since they have no independent consciousness, there is no need to worry that their combat effectiveness will be reduced during the long transmission process due to psychological problems. After arriving at the destination, the commander
We can quickly establish an outpost through space teleportation and release those stored soldiers. This process is called deployment."
"In other words, only 300 commanders came here this time, and all your real soldiers were collected in the space rift?"
"Yes."
"Very good! Great! Listen, Pandora, no matter what, without my order, those 300 people will never be allowed to deploy their army. If there are only 300 people, there are still some ways to arrange them..."
Although the number of people dropped sharply from the expected thousands of troops to only 300, the pressure was still great.
It is now 11:30 in the evening. Considering that 300 people appearing out of thin air will definitely have a huge impact on ordinary people, I asked Pandora to slightly adjust the time of the legion's jump, and choose the receiving location in an inaccessible place far away from the city.
Pandora stood there quietly, her originally long black hair turned into a translucent ice blue like crystal. Under the cover of the night sky, she was as beautiful as an angel who strayed into the world - even though this angel has twenty hours a day.
They are all thinking about how to massacre the United Nations.
Waves of faint energy fluctuations centered on her and spread out in all directions. Through information sharing with Pandora, I could feel that the range of influence of these fluctuations was more than ten kilometers.
"Information interference has been enabled and will continue to interfere with conscious targets entering the warning area within 2 hours - brother, are you feeling better?"
I lay on the ground and continued to lift my body.
"sorry……"
"It's okay..." I replied weakly, "It's just that you must not measure me according to the standards of the Xiling Apostle in the future - it will kill people, it will really kill people..."
The past 20 minutes have been one hell of a ride.
Being carried on the shoulders by Pandora at a speed of 210 kilometers per hour, I flew over the cliffs and walls. After arriving at the destination, I felt that all my internal organs had changed their positions: I hope that in the new environment, they can still complete their original work smoothly.
I lay quietly on the ground. After a while, I finally felt that the pain all over my body had weakened a bit, but I still had no desire to get up. I just looked up at the stars.
"It's so quiet..." I whispered.
Away from the noisy city, putting aside the complicated thoughts, lying quietly under this quiet dark blue sky, I suddenly felt a calmness that I had never experienced before.
If it weren't for Pandora, I might never have been able to lie quietly in the suburbs like this at a deserted night and feel this rare tranquility.
What happened in the past few days was so incredible that my tense nerves never relaxed for a moment, but now, I suddenly feel a lot more relaxed.
"Brother, the current outside temperature is too low, which may cause harm to your body." Pandora's slightly mechanical voice came over. Although there was no emotion as usual, I heard a trace of it.
Concern - maybe just psychological comfort? After all, this little girl just carried her Emperor and ran from the city to the suburbs at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour...
"It's okay. This is a rare opportunity to relax. Don't stand still. It won't start until 20 minutes. Come and join me."
Pandora responded and lay beside me obediently.
Even though I knew the other person was not a human being, when Pandora came closer, I still trembled a little.
Calm down, the other person is not a human, and even if the other person is a human, she is still a loli!
At this moment, a sentence suddenly passed through my mind, which made me feel blessed: If even race is not an issue, then why is age important?
I found that my thoughts were running wildly in a direction that I couldn't control...
"Hmm? Pandora, what does it smell like?" The light fragrance exuding from Pandora suddenly caught my attention.
"This is the smell left by a certain compound that my sister used when bathing me. Personally speaking, I don't understand the function of this smell. In battle, such redundant information will only expose myself faster.
"
"Haha, Pandora, you don't have to talk about fighting all the time. There aren't that many fights in this world. You can live a little easier."
The little girl next to me uncharacteristically did not answer my words this time, but remained silent. I guess it was difficult for her to understand this sentence given the gap between our worldviews.
"Pandora, I have always wanted to ask you, what is the normal life of you Xiling apostles - before you unexpectedly fall into a deep sleep." I am a little curious about the Xiling Empire that has been inextricably linked to me.
What kind of world is this, I am completely confused right now.
Pandora was silent for a long time, and finally uttered four words: "I don't know... for now."
"The basic data is missing very seriously. Almost all records before the slumber have been lost. Perhaps relevant information can be obtained after contacting other Xiling home planets that have awakened. Or perhaps as time goes by, the database will recover part of itself."
"That's it..."
After a while, Pandora's voice sounded again, and it was still the same emotionless voice: "Maybe it's all kinds of battles, I only remember these, fighting, fighting constantly, we are a race born for fighting."
"That's not necessarily the case." I suddenly remembered the restored color world I saw in my dream. Such a vibrant world, I didn't believe it was created by a fighting race.
After that, the two of them fell into silence, until suddenly there was a regular fluctuation in my spiritual world.
The army of idlers from the distant Xiling mother planet finally arrived.
