The first thousand four hundred and fifty-eight chapters turned out to be her?
(Please give me a monthly ticket! Although there is no double update and no outbreak, I still feel confident to ask for a monthly ticket!)
After the shipboard host announced that the system was ready to return to the team, I finally couldn't help but feel curious and asked the spaceship AI, which in theory should have no personality, a question: "What does Warren Field mean to you?"
"The crew of this ship, the only survivor, the priority subject of supervision," the ship's host quickly replied in a straightforward tone, but Sandora and I waited patiently for the next sentence. Sure enough, after a few seconds of silence
The voice then added, "This ship is not sure whether this logic is normal, but this ship regards Warren as a system supplement for this ship."
"Do you regard it as a supplementary part of yourself?" Sandora seemed to have a faint smile on her face, "You shouldn't have generated this data, but this ship has enough weird places, so it's okay to keep it this weird...
…Warren Field is your partner, and that’s what the ‘weird logic’ you generate means.”
"This ship doesn't understand. This ship has no personality system designed."
"It's not important," Sandora smiled and shook her head, "Really, it's not important."
It seems that everything is just as I guessed. The starship commander tens of thousands of years ago fell in love with the spacecraft's AI - two souls with completely different life forms, one of which does not even have a body, but this does not matter at all.
Preventing them from admiring each other during their decades of companionship. Theoretically, a starship host without a complete personality should not have such feelings, but it may be because of her special model, or it may be some kind of benign failure caused by the damage of the spacecraft.
, it is more likely that it is simply a miracle that the ship's main engine produced humanity.
Although those decades of lonely journey were lamentable, now I suddenly feel that this story may not be so sad after all: Warren Field and the shipboard host have lived together for decades in a spaceship cabin with limited space.
It is their whole world, they have never been separated, and they are together until one of them dies. From another perspective, this is just a mutual understanding and love between ordinary people, life, old age, illness and death - the only thing that is different is that it is extremely deserted here.
At this time, other imperial soldiers who were originally waiting outside had entered the spacecraft as planned. One of the teams found the body of Warren Field according to the route map we left. An imperial soldier reported to the police: "Your Majesty, the starship command was found.
How to deal with the official remains?"
I thought about it and made a decision: "Handle it carefully, do not damage it, take it back and bury it according to the standards of the fallen heroes of the servant army on the cemetery planet under the Ministry of Military Command."
The Apostles of Xiling do not have funeral customs, but the Servant Army does. The Ministry of Military Command has "grave stars" specially used for burying fallen soldiers. These graveyard planets are usually made up of retired planet battleships that have been completely scrapped and cannot even be converted into colonial stars.
Transformed, Warren Field is not technically a member of the New Empire's Servant Army, but I think he should meet this qualification.
Sandora had no objection, and she connected to the Shadow City database again: "Personnel information database, log in a set of family data, Warren Field, male servant army, Heikona human, er-06,
Perhaps this family data relayed by the emperor himself was too strange, so the server program of the personnel information database sent a query: "Your Majesty, one of them is from an unrecorded vassal race, and is the other a shipboard host?"
"That's right," Sandora said, repeating the two people's information again, "Just record it like this, the affairs left over from the old empire."
There is no doubt about the personnel information database: the words "legacy affairs of the old empire" are enough to explain almost everything.
We then went to the previous activity hall, which has a large holographic device, which is more convenient for checking the newly obtained information. Sandora connected the data terminal to the holographic device in the center of the hall, and the secret of this ghost ship finally came to light.
The first information is the captain's record, which is the observation data recorded by Warren Field for decades after he woke up. The starship commander found these data boring, but in our opinion this thing is of great significance: this is exactly
It is currently extremely rare information and is urgently needed by the new empire. It is an observation record near the contaminated area for a period of time after the collapse of the old empire. Since the old empire completely closed its borders and expelled all observers from the Protoss, the observations after the collapse of the old empire
There are very few records, and there are only a few residual data from automatic outposts that have been preserved to this day and have fallen into our hands. And now with the void readings that Warren has accumulated over decades, we are in the process of predicting the "catastrophe."
This will give you the opportunity to go further in your research and gain a deeper understanding of the changes in the entire turbulent area after the collapse of the empire.
Sandora took a cursory look at these observation data and uploaded them to the engineering/scientific research ship. These things can be brought back to the workaholics at the research center to deal with them. What we are more concerned about now is that this Ark brings
Other information comes out.
Based on past experience, the Exile Ark will carry the last information of the region it belongs to, which is usually the technical information and situation description left by the ruler of the region to other survivors - you can think of this as some kind of "last words".
This kind of last words is of great significance.
However, the strange thing is that Sandora filtered the keywords of all the information and found no information related to the ownership of the sky zone, nor did she find the name of Emperor Xiling who issued the mission document for the "Xiling Ship No. 6"
Name: It’s still the same weird situation as before, the “origin information” of this ship cannot be found!
Sandora frowned and muttered while searching for keywords: "Strange, the designers of the spacecraft mentioned here are all referred to as 'special authority individuals', but this special authority individual obviously does not refer to a certain emperor...here
It was mentioned that three regions participated in the construction of a large number of Arks of Exile with the series name of "Xiling", but it still did not specify which three regions, nor did it mention the name of any emperor, as if these are irrelevant
Similar."
I also leaned over and looked at it. The information about the initial information about the spacecraft did mention a "special authority individual", but this mysterious designer never revealed his real name. Sandora's reading speed was very fast, and she had already read it directly.
After reading most of the documents, the look of confusion on his face continued to grow: "If this information is correct, the emperors of the three regions were not involved in the design and manufacture of these spacecrafts. I don't think they even know about their own.
Starport is manufacturing these unplanned spaceships... Could it be that Emperor Xiling’s control over the area under his name during the catastrophe has weakened to this extent?”
There are many doubts about the construction of these spaceships: the designer is unknown, and the person who ordered the construction is also unknown. Even the emperor of Tianzhu knows that there are these spaceships. I can’t think of anything under the empire’s strict authority authentication and logic system.
These things can be done by bypassing the monitoring of the authority tree. Moreover, the mysterious "special authority individual" not only built a large number of spaceships in three sky regions at the same time, but also put a large number of uninfected servants on the spacecraft and gave them
The rafting mission was released, and this process all required the participation of Xiling Apostles. Then didn’t the Xiling Apostles who participated in these things report their work to their emperor?
I thought again of all the strange features I discovered after entering the ghost ship: no logo, no model, no coding, no nameplates on all equipment, and the only ship-based host on the entire ship had a code (host) with unknown meaning and that did not comply with the naming rules.
The coding of the class unit should start with
Performing drifting missions, one of the ships even survives to this day.
"Ignore the builders of these ships for now," Sandora realized that struggling with this issue was a waste of time, so she decisively cut off her train of thought, "Let's look for the initial mission log and messages... The shipboard host mentioned that there were messages,
That thing might tell us something."
There is basically nothing surprising about the initial mission log, which can be summarized in three points:
First, do everything possible to escape from the collapsing empire area and avoid all units with the imperial logo on the route.
Second, after successfully escaping from the Empire Zone, we sailed silently, waiting for the chaos to end, and then cruised along a route that did not make any sense. Sandora and I guessed that this route should intersect with other exile spaceships, probably for
Join others.
Third, if you encounter survivors from other regions, forward a message to them.
The focus is on that message. It was very short, but its content made Sandora and I stunned on the spot:
"To any Xiling apostles or servants who may have survived the disaster of the abyss:"
We keep the fire! Repeat, we keep the fire!”
If nothing unexpected happens, when you read this message, the Xiling Empire has collapsed and disintegrated. The abyss impact will destroy all the worlds in the empire area. The Xiling apostles in the empire area may have become extinct or nearly extinct, but if the calculation is correct,
, there should be a very small number of survivors who have successfully escaped from the Empire Zone like this spaceship. You are floating randomly in the void, but according to the calculated impact scale, the number of safe escape routes is limited, so the surviving exiles still have a chance to compete with
The ship met and read the information."
Since it is impossible to tell when the chaos will subside, the main functions of this ship will be frozen during the drifting period. The arrival of other survivors, that is, you will reactivate the ship (if it is not malfunctioning). If the chaos has ended at this time, and
The Xiling Apostle spiritual network has been completely disintegrated, so please perform the following operations:"
Read the attachment of this message. It records the coordinates of a remote world. This remote world is far away from the impact and should still exist. Please go to this world and search carefully. There is a Xiling Emperor and his Xiling host isolated in a local place.
On a planet, they cannot leave that world and are isolated from the Empire's main network, so they are not contaminated."
That is the last fire of the empire! Repeat, that is the last fire of the empire!”
But please note that this ship has an automatic renewal protocol. After it enters that safe world, it will release the safety isolation of 'Tinder', so please be sure to confirm two things before performing the above actions:"
First: The impact has ended, and the abyss in the empire has subsided or at least will no longer spread."
Second: The data network of the Xiling Empire has been disintegrated. Since the disaster spread through this network, it is very likely that it will continue to occupy the network nodes, so this must be confirmed, otherwise the fire will be contaminated!"
If you cannot confirm the above two points, please reset the ship to silent state and wait for the moment when everything is completely calm."
Stay patient and continue to wait, the empire will never fail, and the day of victory will eventually come!"
Sandora and I looked at each other. This message was another bombshell. The amount of information it contained directly blew us both away!
"Hurry up and look at the attachment!" Even Lilina yelled beside her. Sandora immediately unfolded the attachment of the message document. It was indeed a set of world coordinates - it is difficult to describe the content of world coordinates in specific words.
It can only be understood through direct reading of the information, so I won’t go into details here. Sandora marked the seat, and Lilina jumped up and down beside her restlessly: “Go quickly, go quickly, maybe
Everyone over there is still alive! We have made another big discovery now! Another emperor, and a Xiling host."
However, Sandora and I didn't make any move. Lilina was excited there for a long time. When she found that neither of us made a sound, she suddenly became strange: "Eh? Boss, eldest sister, why are you unhappy?"
"Why do I feel that these coordinates look a little familiar?" Sandora frowned and muttered, while I was comparing the coordinates with the historical records in the general database, and finally figured out what was going on: "This
Isn’t it the same world you were trapped in back then?”
The scene suddenly became completely quiet. Even Dingdang, whose intelligence has never been online, got half of his body out of my pocket and muttered with a horrified look on his face: "Ah, the amount of information this time is so huge..."
"The fire mentioned here..." Sandora stared at the letter from 70,000 years ago, "are it me and Bubbles?"
My mind was still in chaos at this time, and it took me a long time to combine all the information. After I finally regained my clarity, a surprise slowly came to my mind: the person who isolated Sandora and part of her revenge army elites in another world,
Now it has surfaced!
And not only did the perpetrator surface, we also saw other plans hidden behind the "safe isolation" that year: safely isolating Sandora and her revenge army in another world is just one part of a big plan.
Behind this link, there is actually a large group of exiled arks and a plan to rebuild the empire!
"So that's what happened..." Sandora murmured to herself while browsing the message and the coordinate data behind it several times, as if she wanted to carve them into her mind, "Put a person just far away from the empire
The emperor of the area was isolated in a safe world, and then released a large number of escape spaceships to perform drifting missions. After the empire area calmed down, he relied on the original preset rendezvous plan to restart these arks, and finally brought back the 'Spark' and rebuilt the empire... I was
Is it part of this plan?"
"This is almost a big gamble from beginning to end," Lilina smacked her tongue and couldn't help but muttered, "Every link in the middle could go wrong, especially those arks, which basically survived by luck, and
They can't restart until they meet other survivors... Why not just set up an automatic awakening program for Ark itself?"
"Because the person who made this plan doesn't know when the impact will end," Sandora quickly figured out the reason. "Developing a series of timed wake-up procedures will only increase the risk. If the spacecraft is too far away from the contamination,
If the area is still very close or the infected Xiling apostles are still chasing these ships, automatic awakening will increase the chance of being destroyed, and setting it to wake up only when encountering other survivors is relatively safer. More survivors can
It means that the situation has calmed down, and at least it means that the spacecraft is not on a dangerous channel. There is only one kind of fire, so even a delay is better than increasing the risk."
Shandora calmed down faster than me: although she was inexplicably set to become a fire type, Her Majesty the Queen has a really broad mind. But in fact, she really doesn't need to care about anything. Instead, she should be grateful to that person.
A mysterious man who made the plan: If it weren't for the "safety isolation" back then, the lineage of the Revenge Army would definitely have been swallowed up by the abyss like other Xiling apostles.
We have previously studied the many doubts about Sandora's being trapped in another world: the spiritual network was blocked, the cross-world equipment was inexplicably stuck, the Xiling host lost its production capacity, and an imperial soldier finally escaped, and because of some "
"Suicide program" died on the earth. Such anomalies are difficult to explain with simple "abyss interference" or equipment failure, so our final conclusion is: Sandora and her soldiers were originally trapped by a Faraday cage-like
They were protected by a safety barrier. Although they seemed to have lost their freedom on the surface, this safety barrier prevented them from contacting the abyss impact that was destroying the empire. It can almost be said that Shandora survived and met me.
It's entirely due to that "safety barrier".
From the day we came to this conclusion, we knew that there was a figure behind the scenes who planned everything, and it was definitely a very prescient figure. Now we have seen another part of this plan: Ark of Exile.
Then there is only one question before everyone: Who is this person?
"Actually... I have a little idea in my mind."
After much hesitation, I decided to tell my surprising conjecture.
Sandora raised her eyebrows, and her tone seemed to reveal that she had guessed something: "You mean..."
"Only one 'person' could do all of these things: perceive the dangers of that crazy experiment from the most macroscopic perspective; completely cut off the connection between the Avengers and the Imperial Data Network and remotely shut down your equipment;
With Emperor Xiling's approval, a part of the resources were used to secretly build a batch of spaceships; and finally, the exile mission was launched - only one 'person' can theoretically do all of these things at the same time, Xiling, that cluster consciousness!"
Of course, now we have given this cluster consciousness a new name: Abyss Xiling to distinguish it from the little girl in Shadow City who obeyed orders and obeyed orders.
Lilina was stunned, and the little crow "quacked" next to her, but Sandora had expected it. She didn't show too much surprise, but lowered her head slightly with a serious face: "Theoretically, there is only this cluster consciousness.
Although she has this ability, there are still many things that cannot be explained - Xiling theoretically overrides the entire mental network and can control all devices connected to the mental network, but she still had to obey various basic protocols back then. Those protocols
It has been decided that her authority is lower than that of the emperor, and she cannot destroy the integrity of the network. How to explain this?"
I thought about it and came to some vague conclusions... rs
