In our eyes, Kotomine Kirei's conjecture about the nature of the world is as childish and ridiculous as the idea of a round sky and a square place during human ignorance. Although it has some practical aspects, it is generally just a crude model, but I really didn't expect that,
Hongyue actually followed Kotomine's calculation and suddenly erupted.
I really didn’t have a minute to relax. I had just killed the Roman Legion of Heroes in the other world, and I had to play a level-breaking game with Kirei Kotomine’s mini-boss team in the outer world. I finally met the boss at the end of the level and had a conversation.
After the frame, the scene has to be switched back to the inner world, which doesn't give anyone any time to breathe. I said, can you at least give me time to pause the archive?
But complaints are complaints. Things wait for no one, and business still needs to be done.
Kotomine's magic ability was completely sealed by me. This person's only goal is to explore the truth of the world. For such a guy, simple treatment can make him harmless: I asked Dingdang to contribute her picture album when she was in kindergarten.
He claimed that it was an ancient rune book that recorded the secrets of the world, and then Kotomine believed it without hesitation. I guess just one picture in those booklets was enough for him to study it till death, plus Tohsaka
He will be responsible for monitoring him in the future, and Kotomine Kirei has now basically finished handling it.
As for the unlucky spearman Cu Chulin - please allow me to use such a trivial adjective as "unlucky" to apply to this man who is comparable to Xianglin's wife. You can't imagine that when a mosaic of material is used by Kuzu wood
When the iron-masked man threw it in front of us, I was confused. It wasn't until Saber explained it next to me that I associated the pile of things with Cu Chulainn.
The process was very simple, a complete group fight. According to the accurate process provided by Saber, Cu Chulainn first relied on his complete body to become Superman for fifteen seconds. That was called a hehehaha, and only five people were able to do it.
Saber and the others, who were one-third of their strength, were completely suppressed, and then...
Then Rider lost his temper.
It was completely unimaginable that Rider, who was always boring and playing games alone and behaved honestly and quietly, would go berserk. She directly applied for complete liberation, and Medea and Sasaki also suddenly became perfect bodies.
Thinking that everyone in front of him was level 5, Cu Chulainn only had time to say "fuck" before he was covered in a layer of mosaic.
And now he has to face the bruises all over his face and bow to the four heroes, three women, one man, and four heroes who just beat him up, calling him "senpai" - Ah has been transformed into Ava by Sakura's tentacles... ahem,
He is a glorious new recruit in the Long Yingling Army.
After solving these two final troubles, we returned to the other world. Tohsaka and Ilya naturally followed us out of curiosity. Anyway, these two followers can no longer be shaken off. Just follow them. As long as they don't
Just ask to accompany the army to the moon.
Renault and his army have established a temporary outpost at the place where they first landed. Dozens of Photon Cannon siege guns switched to fort mode formed a circular defense circle. They were set up at intervals of one hundred meters in front of the fort.
A series of bunkers and emergency missile towers were built. These small integrated buildings obviously adopted the module technology of the Protoss. Although it is not known whether they were built directly through time and space transmission, in such a short time since we left
Completed here, this construction technology is already a leap forward.
In the center of this simple and effective fortification stands a hundred-meter-high Xiling space sensor, which is obviously transmitted from the Shadow City as a whole. The crystal-metal hybrid tower emitting faint blue light has been decomposed into several
The cylindrical part of the machine rotates slowly in the air, making a low "whoosh" sound in the wind. It seems that it has been started.
As for the huge battlecruiser, the Hyperion, it hovered silently in mid-air behind the entire defense circle, like a dark cloud landing on the ground or a dormant beast. It was definitely not the original Hyperion.
What the power system can do is things like anti-gravity engines that come from Imperial technology.
Although there are no enemies in the world, Renault still set up such tight fortifications without letting down his vigilance at all. This shows the rigorous style he has cultivated during many years of difficult wars.
Of course, it was the first time for Tohsaka and Ilya to see such an alien base that only appeared in science fiction movies. After all, they had seen a grand but dazzling alien landing battle before and a super-advanced base that could be well observed in front of them.
It was different. As soon as they entered the outpost, they immediately looked around curiously. Even Hong A, who was always used to keeping a straight face, ignored his image at the moment and looked around while marveling. The only one who remained calm was probably Uncle B. As a
Archer and Berserker are the second in command of AB's golden combination (when did this combination appear?). The latter has gained a calm spirit that is a hundred times stronger than the former with his elm head. Except for the Loli Ilya whom he is sworn to protect,
Besides, the three-meter-tall giant ignored the turret tanks surrounding it.
"Well, it works very quickly."
Sandora looked at the outpost battle that had taken shape with approval and nodded slightly, while I faced Renault who came up and asked, "How is the situation now?"
"There was an outbreak ten minutes ago," Raynor was still wearing the heavy power armor. Even though he had been promoted to the chief consul of the New Eden Federation, he was still used to going to the front line in such situations, and Kerrigan
Wearing the alloy light armor specially made by the ghost agent, he waited by his side without saying a word. "The red moon suddenly expanded several times within the line of sight, and continued to cover the entire sky within three minutes. At that time, the gravity of the ground was almost zero."
, there was also severe electromagnetic interference, but no real damage was caused. Two sets of gravitational isolation devices and temporary psionic shields from the empire protected my soldiers. The imperial sensor was just transmitted, and your chief scientist is debugging it.
It, she won't let us get close."
Tykes walked over from behind with his waist bent. He happened to hear Renault's words and continued: "That woman is so barbaric. I just wanted to go over and have a look, but she threw her directly outside the position. The Xiling people even
The combat effectiveness of scientists is so exciting...hiss..."
This is the so-called scientist who knows martial arts, and gangsters can't stop him - but a scientist who is violent enough to throw others out casually... Could it be that Tavel, who is always gentle and quiet, has another identity as a masked superwoman who saves the earth?
There was an embarrassed expression on Renault's face, and there was a sense of helplessness in his tone when he spoke to Tex: "If you mess around with other people's scientific research secrets without permission, you should be thankful that you were thrown out instead of getting two peanuts."
"Don't mind, it's not that Tavel has any objection to you, it's just that she doesn't like to be disturbed when she's working." I punched Tex on the chest, who was still in pain, "You should be happy that we
Half of them are accustomed to shooting first and talking later, and Tavel is already considered the quieter one."
"I think I should find a bottle of good wine to calm down the panic," Tex muttered and walked away. "Maybe marrying a bottle of 70-year-old brandy for the rest of my life is a good choice."
You didn't hit his head just now, did you?
"Rin, you guys are waiting here...uh, I said what are you doing?"
I turned around and said to Tohsaka and Ilya, only to find that the latter had already begun to try to talk to those mighty "alien warriors", which made the other party extremely embarrassed. Due to military discipline, they were not allowed to answer strangers' questions casually.
, but the two curious babies in front of them seemed to belong to their boss's boss's boss... The ultimate boss's friend could not afford to offend him at all. As a result, the two Marines who were held back could only hesitate and sweat profusely,
In the end, he coolly pulled down his mask, saying that he was just an NPC, and the only dialogue he could complete was "Our ancestors are fooling you."
"Wow, big brother, can Ilya take a photo with them?" The silver-haired little loli ran up to me and pulled my sleeves happily, while the machine gunner who had been pestered by her for a long time was covered in ashes.
Shivering, I could almost see through the orange mask a big face dripping with cold sweat.
"Stop making trouble, this is a military controlled area," I still have to be serious when I should be serious. I decisively stopped Tohsaka and Ilya from causing trouble to the Marines, and then dragged Zeratul over.
"Go play with this alien uncle!"
"Great mentor, this..."
As soon as the unlucky Zeratul said a word, Ilya cheered and dragged him away.
"Sure enough, the people you are with will always become very personal very quickly." Kerry said with sincerity.
When I met Tavel, the debugging of the sensor had been basically completed and the incoming support fleet had begun to be guided, while our respectable female scientist was busy sorting out the data uploaded from the downstream information endpoint, looking busy.
I originally thought that even if a researcher had to be sent over in such a situation, it would be an ordinary Xiling technician. I didn't expect that Tavel, the chief scientist of the empire, would come to the scene in person, which made me feel that things were somewhat unusual.
"Your Majesty, you came at the right time."
Noticing our arrival, Tavel hurried forward to greet us, "The energy burst of the Red Moon entered the first round of dormancy seven minutes ago, but we have collected a lot of data just now, and the conclusions are shocking."
"what happened?"
I also became nervous when I heard that a calm man like Tavel used the word "shocked" to describe his discovery. The other person swiped his hand twice in the air, dividing a rectangular suspended screen, with a series of scrolling pictures on it.
The data and graphics are dazzling.
To be honest, if we want to talk about the shortcomings of this intellectual lady in front of me, apart from her weird love for coffin-like objects, this habit of having to come up with a lot of complicated data every time she reports something to me is also annoying.
One of the embarrassing things, because every time I feel that I am simply illiterate, and no one knows anything on it...
"Although I know that you don't understand the things above, please don't use it as a sign of having sex by reading comics, okay?"
Ah, he was complained about by his subordinates, and also by people like Tavel.
I took back the comic book in my hand and scratched my hair: "You say it, you say it."
The Intellectual Royal Sister sighed helplessly, pushed up her glasses and said: "Your Majesty, when the red moon energy exploded on a large scale, the other world produced several information explosions totaling three milliseconds. This information was monitored at all times.
Captured by the Garden of Death, we have analyzed some ancient things from them - those information may have come from before the other world fell into disorder, and were bound by the powerful energy of the red moon and have not dissipated to this day - this is the theory."
"Hmm, what next?" I asked, pretending to understand, nodding my head.
"Then we found that the information was organized in a way that was very similar to a universal shadow space."
"Oh." I nodded.
Three seconds passed.
"What did you say!?"
It's over, I was half-slow just now.
"This weird space that we call the inner world, which is a mirror image of the outer world, embodies energy fluctuations that are very close to the shadow space." Tavel repeated word for word with a serious expression.
"Vesca!" I twitched the corner of my mouth, feeling a toothache, and then turned around and patted the little girl who was dragging her clothes, "Has this model been included in the world you killed before?"
The little girl showed an expression of serious recollection, and her little brain, which was calculating trillions of times per second, counted for half a minute before gently swaying under my sweaty gaze: "No!"
"Okay, we've got rid of the suspicion, now you can continue your analysis."
It’s hard to have a sister who has caused countless disasters, isn’t it? I can see this message in your eyes.
"Well, the basic situation is like this. It is very likely that the other world was once a shadow space, just like our Shadow City. It is a parallel world that uses the external reality as a template and opens in a different dimension. Of course, its volume is larger
It was so huge that it might even have copied the entire solar system, but its management center was destroyed.
What we see now is the shadow space after it has lost control. Its external information acquisition module seems to be partially still operating. Therefore, on some 'relics', it is highly synchronized with the surface world, which made us mistakenly believe that
It is a natural mirror of the external world, but in the information explosion just now, we found clues that it has been copied."
After Tavel finished speaking, he closed the dazzling information box, leaving me time to digest this shocking fact.
Looking around, this desolate and ruined Gobi, the fragmented earth under the red moon... the entire inner world is actually an out-of-control shadow space?
If this is the case, the problem will be huge. Xiling Technology is notoriously difficult to deal with, especially when they cause trouble for us.
"Now we can no longer find any remaining traces of the shadow space," Tavel whispered, "Chaos is everywhere, exploration is difficult, everything here has been disordered for too long, even the most powerful Xiling host
It is difficult to deduce who its founder was."
"But the shadow space generation device must still be running somewhere," Sandora said with certainty, "otherwise this place would have collapsed long ago. Tavel, could it be the moon?"
Shandora was referring to the giant red moon hanging in the sky, which was emitting a mysterious and distant light at the moment, burying its secrets deeply under the boiling sea of energy.
"That is the most likely scenario," Tavel nodded. Apparently her research team had also demonstrated this. "The red moon is the only place we have not been able to detect clearly at present. There is obviously a high-energy reaction inside it.
, if there is a control core in this out-of-control shadow space, it can only be inside the Red Moon. However, in my database, the empire has never had a planet battleship like the Red Moon: there is no entity on its surface, it is completely a
It is a highly concentrated energy body, and the strange energy radiated outwards will still cause harm fifty thousand kilometers away. This basically determines that it cannot be used as a space base, and the energy form of the Red Moon itself is also different from the Empire's conventional energy.
different……"
"You mean, that thing called anti-psionic energy?" I raised my eyebrows and asked casually, looking up at the sky.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the red moonlight has the same wavelength as psionic energy, but the waveform is completely opposite. According to the Xiling Energy Level Decline Theory, this energy must be the result of the decay of a higher level of energy, but I have tried
All models cannot deduce how this strange energy should decay from void energy - it is theoretically impossible."
"By the way, if you put it this way, those black crystal daggers that can allow ordinary people to enter the other world..." I suddenly remembered the two crystal daggers that Kotomine Kirei found. According to his own confession, the crystal daggers he used to go to
One of the collections I bought at a high price from a mysterious old man when I was traveling in China. The collection also included two faded jadeite, a cross that was illuminated by a monk, and a jadeite that accidentally fell into the fireplace and melted into gel on the spot.
The luminous pearl in his body, and the two black crystal daggers were the only real treasures that kept him from scolding his mother.
If there is anything strange mixed into the above paragraph, just ignore it. Please know that there is more than one Cicaro in this world...
"The key is just a resonance crystal that allows non-Xiling apostles to enter the shadow space. The material is quite ordinary. In addition to the empire, there are at least a thousand civilizations that can create this kind of crystal, and it is indistinguishable from ordinary crystals without activation.
There is no difference," Tavel shrugged. "So I didn't think about what it was for at first. It might be a gift prepared by the founder of this shadow space for the imperial family at that time. But now, due to the loss of control of the shadow space, its identity has changed.
The authentication function has been disabled and anyone can use it - in theory."
"Have you ever observed that planet up close?" Sandora asked casually while looking at the data that was constantly refreshing on a floating window next to her.
"Two unmanned exploration spacecraft are observing from a distance of several kilometers above the Red Moon, but at such a close distance, our scanning equipment still cannot penetrate its energy barrier."
I am not surprised by the futility of the detection spacecraft. After all, that planet is most likely also a product of Xiling, and it may also be some special equipment from the heyday of the empire. It relies on two small detection spacecraft to penetrate the star warship.
The barrier of the Xiling Celestial Body is simply a joke.
"Baby, have you ever felt that there is something in the middle of the moon?"
I touched Sandora who was looking through the data next to me. The latter raised her head, followed my gaze, and nodded after a moment: "It seems to be a bright spot?"
As far as the eye can see, there seems to be a spot in the center of the huge moon hanging in the sky that is not very bright but is incompatible with the surrounding colors. With Sandora's confirmation, I confirmed that I was not hallucinating, and the two of us acted as if
It became a signal. Tavel on the side and the technicians working at the sensor nearby also raised their heads and looked at the giant red moon in confusion. The sensor antenna made a low whine in the wind.
The sound gradually turned into a weird noise.
It's like a sharp bird call.
"The sensor has been interfered with, and the energy intensity of the red moon is rising!"
"There's a lot of misinformation flooding into the communications links and we're trying to troubleshoot..."
"Reporting to you, sir! We have lost contact with the two detection spacecrafts... The other party's entire channel is silent, and the red moon is expanding... The No. 1 detection spacecraft has been confirmed to be destroyed, and the No. 2 spacecraft has escaped from the energy storm and is returning at full speed!"
A series of nervous reports sounded almost at the same time, not only from the technicians who were manipulating the sensors, but also from the remote monitoring team staying in the Shadow City and the observers stationed in the low-Earth orbit of the other world. A large amount of information was sent at the same time.
The influx made the staff busy instantly, and Tavel immediately rushed to the nearest information terminal operator and asked loudly: "What happened? What destroyed the detection spacecraft?"
"Sir, it's nether energy. It's a frontal bombardment of nether energy at the cruiser's main gun level. The image sent back by the No. 2 spacecraft shows that the attack comes from..."
"From the red moon."
I added what the *** operator had left unfinished, and then looked up at the sky.
Now you can see it very clearly, it is a blue bright spot.
The bright spot that appeared in the center of the red moon expanded rapidly. In a moment, it reached the point where the naked eye could distinguish its shape. Its expansion speed increased geometrically, spreading like a drop of blue ink dropped into a pool.
, and it’s not just this one spot. On the surface of the red moon, visible to the naked eye, at least a dozen blue spots are expanding outward at the same time. The entire giant moon is like a paper cut being swallowed by blue flames. In a few minutes,
Inside, it has turned into a deep blue ocean hanging in the sky.
"When I summoned Sasaki...the moon in the sky turned blue..."
A sentence Medea once said suddenly echoed in her ears, and then overlapped with the strange astronomical wonders in front of her.
