Chapter six hundred and eighty nine visitors from another world
Chapter 689: Visitors from Another World
In the spacious and bright special care unit of the medical center, Yakumo Ai, who has basically recovered, is undergoing rehabilitation training. Her body has been severely impacted and squeezed, and accompanied by severe mental damage caused by traveling through space, the former has been completely discharged by the medical cabin.
After being cured, the latter has mostly recovered from being in a coma for a few days. Now he is just a little slow in movement and imbalanced. Well, a large part of the reason is due to the trouble caused by the unlucky braided tail.
Because I firmly refuse to use the steam iron kindly provided by Qianqian, Yakumo Blue’s tail is still spiral-shaped.
Because of the special daily work schedule of the hard-working leader, I had just attended an official event held by the Civilization Community in the morning. After returning with Sandora, I went directly to the medical center to check on Lan. It happened that Yakumo Murasaki was also there.
, after the three of us discussed the operating status of the Shadow City Dimensional Hub, we began to watch a certain nine-tailed fox pacing around the house.
It's really rare today, Lan is wearing her clothes properly - before, I always thought that Yakumo Lan's tendency to streak was just a rumor, but I never thought it was true.
"If you have a bunch of tails, you can definitely understand what Lan is thinking."
Yakumo Murasaki leisurely brewed tea and answered my confusion like this.
The chest pocket was bulged, and Dingdang poked his little head out of it: "Yes, yes, Dingdang also thinks it is too troublesome to bother digging holes in clothes!"
Don't tell me that you little guy also has a tendency to run naked! At least in this field, please maintain a little bit of the moral integrity of a goddess!
Both the winged Ding Dong and the long-tailed Yakumo Blue face the same problem, that is, they need to dig holes in their clothes to successfully insert their special parts outside the clothes, and this process is definitely not easy.
My sister once made a new dress for Little Thing, but she forgot to make holes. As a result, Little Thing had to wear it for a whole day before she discovered the problem - at that time she became the announcer of xltv...
Sister Gaia, although I know that obeying the orders of the mistress is a manifestation of the emperor's moral integrity, haven't I reminded you that you must accept any suggestion made by that whimsical girl Qian Qian?
Think twice before you act! That girl really didn’t create this nonsense xltv to promote the eternal glory of the empire, she just wanted to find a place to put the logo she designed!
Of course Gaia didn't know what I was complaining about. Although she saw a flash of resentment on her boss's face, she still prioritized her work and reported: "Your Majesty, the Intelligence Center of the Space and Time Administration reported that they were detected at the Macroworld border outpost.
An irregular space flash occurred in this universe, lasting one second, and the energy reading was very high."
"Sudden flash in space?" I was a little confused. "It might be the collapse of a black hole or something like that. This shouldn't be a big deal."
"The second report showed that the outpost subsequently discovered a trace amount of residual radiation frequency of psionic energy in the galaxy where the sudden flash occurred. The Space and Time Administration has sent out sentries to investigate the situation, but they reported that there was a cloud and fog group with strong interference at the scene.
, it may take some time to return the conclusion.”
At this time, I finally had a real surprise: a sudden flash of space? Accompanied by psionic energy?
Perhaps we should first explain what a spatial flash is.
The term "space flash" is a special term used in the Xiling technology system to describe the instantaneous instability of space. The vivid explanation is: a small space (perhaps only a few tens of meters in radius) suddenly explodes in a very short time due to some reasons.
The process of "disappearing" within, falling into an unobservable dimension, and then jumping back from that dimension again due to the correction of the world itself. From the perspective of the main material plane, the target space seems to disappear in a flash for a short time.
Likewise, based on this phenomenon and the extremely short time it occurred, Imperial scientists vividly called this situation a "space flash."
Space flashes occur for a variety of reasons, both within the world and outside the world. The causes within the world are basically the instant collapse of supermassive bodies, black hole collisions, catastrophic changes in celestial bodies and other sensational cosmic wonders, while outside the world
The reason may be that the world barriers of the two universes "brush" slightly, causing the two worlds to exchange a small amount of information with each other: that is, the second flash will cause the crossing to occur.
Apostle Xiling is no stranger to the principle of space flash. The most common example is at the dimensional hub platform, where a large number of world gates apply similar principles. It uses wonderful physical law equipment to change the barrier between the two worlds at a certain point.
The parameters at the points make them form an extremely small hole like the cell membrane when cells fuse. When the world barriers overlap at a certain point, the "information" of the two worlds can freely communicate in this hole. This is the world.
Gate - of course, the transmission channel formed by this is not a "sudden flash", it is a long-term exposure.
But it is said that when the World Gate was first developed, the imperial technicians at that time could only maintain the gate for a moment. Passing through the World Gate in a sudden flash was a technical work worthy of boasting at the time. I will leave you with your reaction.
It usually doesn't take more than one or two seconds - when the light turns green, you have one second to slam on the accelerator.
That era gave birth to the first batch of racing gangs in the empire...Ahem, I'm going too far.
"Mom, this is a carnival..."
After sorting out the origin of the space flash in my mind and the possible meaning of a space flash with a psionic reaction, I looked at the sky speechlessly, "Are you going to let people live like this?"
There were so many troubles just on the second day! After watching so many people eating, drinking and having fun for twelve days, should I just have to start dealing with official duties?
"Well, Arjun, be more open-minded." Of course Sandora understood her lover's mentality of just eating and waiting to die, and at this time there was a funny expression on her face: "Trouble has never been less.
At least what we discovered was psionic energy rather than an abyss, and an irregular burst can basically rule out the possibility of imperial spacecraft transmitting across the world. Maybe we just discovered a space outpost from the old empire era."
Okay, okay, you can't avoid what's coming. Counting the nearly one month of preparation time before the carnival, this long vacation is actually quite long...
"After all, we have a responsibility."
Sandora put her little hands into my pockets. Although she didn't need to keep warm in this way, she was very good at using this habit of human girls to act coquettishly. "The king should always be alert and diligent. Lazyness is the privilege of a servant.
This is a widely circulated saying of Apostle Xiling."
"Oh? It's interesting. Who said that?"
"I said it when I first ascended the throne."
I:"……"
Well, I have known for a long time that Sandora has the habit of using her famous words to enhance her sense of presence.
"Gaia, I hope to get more information this afternoon," Sandora turned her head to the holographic projection on the table, "If necessary, higher-level regular troops can be used. We may have encountered someone from the old empire era.
remains."
Gaia nodded and disappeared into the holographic projection, while the shutdown sound of Windows began to echo in our ears... Qianqian, Qianqian, you really dare to install anything into this xltv!
"I have always felt that something is not right," Sandora put the tea cup to her mouth and blew gently, "It seems that since the last wave of time travel, time travel, space imbalance, information leakage, information interference, etc. have occurred in various worlds.
There are more and more events, including Lilina's journey, Yakumo Murasaki, Reimu and the others' time travel, Gensokyo's possible invasion of space and time, and this space flash that occurred on the border: What if there is a ghost?
If it can appear, it must at least be related to the void, and these events should be more or less connected."
"The Space-Time Management Bureau has begun to study these situations, but every world is operating normally. If there is a problem, it can only be caused by something happening in the void - then we have nothing to do with it."
This is not the first time that Shandora mentioned these situations. Since the time of traveling, the frequency of unexpected connections between worlds has increased significantly. Although it has not yet reached the point of triggering an alarm, this unreasonable increase has also
It seems too abrupt. The only possible explanation now is that the aftermath of the crossing tide has not yet calmed down. There are still unobservable turbulences in the void. These turbulences stir up the originally peaceful worlds and cause these worlds to collide.
Of course, no one knows exactly how this turbulence occurs.
"I can't understand it at all."
Yakumo Purple smiled a little awkwardly. Sandora and I suddenly started talking about these issues that sounded extremely profound to her, and both of them had serious looks on their faces. This put a lot of pressure on Purple's mother, who was not an unrelated person.
, "Since you guys have started talking about business, I'll take my leave first - Lan, come here."
A gap appeared out of thin air, and Yakumo Purple jumped in first, grabbing Yakumo Blue who was stroking his tail.
After the gap disappeared, Sandora and I looked at each other in silence for a long time.
"Girl, when do you think they will remember... that this is actually their own room?"
"Ahem, let's continue drinking tea."
**********Long time no see dividing line**********
That afternoon, Shadow Base Headquarters.
After half a day of waiting, the agents who went to a certain border post in Macro World to investigate finally sent back information. As a result, this information directly pulled Sandora and I from the carnival venue.
What a group of imperial agents discovered behind the strong interference source was not only a bunch of messy space signals, but also something. Now the "object" that may have passed through the world barrier has been brought back by the reconnaissance ship and placed at the headquarters.
-In the Gnaku on the 1st floor.
Me, Sandora, the Pandora sisters, Tavel, and Qianqian who rushed over excitedly when they heard about something interesting, are now concentrated in the Gnaku, observing the visitors from other worlds suspended on the anti-gravity platform.
.
This is an irregular hard object with a radius of about four or five meters. Its shape looks like fragments blown out of a large stone. The thing is overall gray-white, and has a color somewhere between metal and plastic.
The reflective texture in the room continuously reflects the cold shimmer as it slowly rotates on the anti-gravity platform. Several probes are lying on its surface, analyzing the structure of this thing.
"It looks like some kind of crystal, but the structure is not quite right," Tavel held up her precious information screen. The frantically refreshing data on it did not affect her slow analysis and report at all. "Natural crystals generally have simple structures.
, and it is extremely repeatable, but the structure of this thing has the complexity of organic matter, with dense bands of substances irregularly distributed in it. It looks like some kind of synthetic polymer material has changed its properties after being irradiated with energy.
, Well, that’s the theory. Mistress! Please be sure not to use the disassembly tools in your hands, we have higher-precision ones.”
Qian Qian took back the crowbar and hammer in his hand and said, "Hey, I just want to knock a piece back and carve a seal."
What kind of train are you running in your head alone?
Gently pressing the information screen on his hand, Tavel refreshed the results of the probe scan again: "Well, the composition analysis of the surface layer has been completed, but the characteristics of this thing have seriously mutated, and the reverse recovery will take a while. At present,
It can only be confirmed that it has experienced world travel, and now the deep scan will be...ah, Your Majesty, look!"
Tavel, who has always been mature and steady, actually exclaimed in surprise. This made me stunned and I immediately came over.
"Here, slightly in the middle, is this a human being?!"
