Xiling Empire Chapter 1486: Unexpected meeting
Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
I do n’t know if it ’s expected or unexpected—we’re not under attack.
The imperial fleet jumped into KN-22DWorld, there was no violent artillery fire, no fortified fortress arrays, no gravitational traps and transition interrupters, and even no communication interference. We were greeted by the empty ice-cold space , And an ancient galaxy that looks completely free of signs of life.
"Deep space telemetry found the military base of Fallen Apostles," the intelligence officer reported loudly on the command sheet, "but all bases are silent, no active targets have been found, and the soul detection response is zero."
"Abandoned?" Shandora frowned, "Extended the telemetry range to the entire Universe, released the intelligence probe, and did not miss any suspicious places-including space folds and abnormal gravitational focus."
I looked at this empty Universe, like most World in the abyss area, its basic rules are not "friendly", the stars are sparse and the celestial bodies are sparse. The original celestial bodies of the place are self-destructive, but the environment here should have been called a blessing in the entire abyss area: at least it has some shaped celestial bodies and more regular material activities, just like the star system currently docked by the Imperial Fleet, Although its sun is not stable and the speed of planetary orbits also fluctuates abnormally, at least this is a celestial body, and something in the field of vision is always good.
More accurate telemetry results are quickly presented to us: this Universe has seven large military base, countless small outposts and stationing points, and two galaxies that look like heavy military base, which can be said to be a The border with higher military weight World is higher than our predicted military weight. Now the only situation here is-no one.
"All military base is silent, with minimal energy response, and no signs of soul activity, just like a ghost town that automatically runs after being abandoned," Shandora looked at the reports sent by the lower-level officers. The needle is passing over the closest military base ... no attack or interference. "
The image transmitted by the probe is projected. Its current position is an artificial star system 14,000 light years away, and it is passing through a large star port of Fallen Apostles at a low speed. The small battleships, the starlight buildings with flashing lights, the rotating stargate calibration ring, and the silhouette of the Eternal Level mother ship on the edge of the picture like a large ghost. The picture is silent, and you can only see these things slowly moving in the field of view. The probe removed its disguise under our remote control, and even actively released a clear identification signal, but the dead military base still remained silent. , Even the interest in destroying the probes is lacking.
More espionage probes flooded into that galaxy. After some careful exploration, I finally came to the conclusion: this is a base that has been abandoned, but somehow all the systems in base are still on, just It seems that the people in base were still working normally.
"Take the fleet over and prepare a ship for me." Shandora simply ordered, and I looked at her with surprise: "Are you going to go by yourself?"
"Anyway, you plan to pass by yourself," Shandora looked at me like an old wife and wife, "I don't know what you are thinking. It's okay, but it's an unmanned base, but it seems too careful. Familiar. "
The fleet soon arrived at the unmanned base, a stellar system with four artificial planets, and the orbits of each celestial body were orderly filled with star ports, factories, military stations and comprehensive orbital stations. These space facilities alone are wider than the land that Human Race throughout history has stepped on. It is impossible for several people to explore such a vast area. Our main purpose is to think about what happened to this base in the past. A large number of espionage probes have poured into here more than ten minutes ago, so the structure of base has been identified. We know that its center is located in the northern hemisphere of the second planet, and it is a highly militarized city-Fallen Apostles territory Is there anything that is not militarized?
The Royal Fleet hovered on the star port orbit of the second planet. The fleet surroundings is the various orbital stations of Fallen Apostles. Sivis looked at the Star Harbor and Space Factory, which can be described in a few minutes. Lived on the public channel and whispered: "For the first time in my life, I took the fleet next to these dangerous guys. It felt really strange."
Even if the dark space buildings have been left empty, it can still bring unpleasant depression, which is enough to show how bad the madmen in the abyss area are.
“It ’s just some unmanned cities,” Shandora did n’t care much. “You really feel awkward to keep the fleet away from them, but to ensure that all the main guns of the fleet are locked to these space buildings, I do n’t believe the abyss. Xi Ling really will give these things to us. "
The at this moment public channel suddenly inserted a high-octave voice: "What about the ship!"
I do n’t need to look at the avatar to know that this is the two lunatics: she is the most common of all shipboard hosts.
"This ship is too big, and it ’s not appropriate to stay in planetary orbit like you, this ship is not a companion star for a planet that has no radius of more than 5,000 kilometers," the second maniac is on the channel. Shouting, she is now two astronomical units away from us. Because the size of the Warsong is too large, she simply joins the Royal Fleet on the orbit of the second planet can do nothing about it. "This ship must also find a place to stop!"
I looked at the structure chart of the galaxy: "Then you can go to the star to transfer, this star is made by Fallen Apostles, maybe it is also a military base, if you stay beside it, it means monitoring it. Now. "
The two lunatics were a bit lost when they did n’t fight, but think about it, it means that they are tossing about in the enemy ’s base camp, and they are happy again. The huge battleship Star Wars takes the Vengeance Army fleet on its track and jumps together It started to orbit at only three astronomical units from the star. While turning, she opened the unencrypted channel and greeted four other artificial planets built by Fallen Apostles in the galaxy: "Outer planets How are you? "" Planets in the fourth orbit, please let me see your rolling atmosphere! "" Planets in the third orbit are rocking! "" The ship's surname is Chen, and I'm glad to toss you base-No. A planet on an orbit, let me see your passionate North Pole! "" How are you, the sun here? The ship's surname is Chen ... "
I suddenly felt that the brain of the second lunatic really didn't need treatment-she thought the other starship hosts were the same as her.
We left the fleet on a shuttle and traversed those Fallen Apostles orbital stations in space that were already empty, and then plunged into the thin planetary atmosphere of the second planet. Over the city of capital city in the northern hemisphere.
This huge city was built on a plain: Fallen Apostles has already precisely customized the entire planet, so the planet surface is basically all such plains and “mountain ridges” that seem to be mechanically cut. The shuttle is slowly traveling over the city, the panoramic view of the city, usually I rarely have the opportunity to see where Fallen Apostles lives at a close distance. As a result, there is nothing special about this place: the architectural form and normal hope Lingcheng is almost identical. It also has a well-organized layout and urban trunk roads that can be seen at a glance. The facilities on the surface are familiar to me, and almost all of them can be named and used, except for most buildings The main colors are more gloomy. I feel that the settlement of Fallen Apostles seems to be no different from the imperial colony.
"Does the villain in your impression have to cloak a big cloak? The tiger bears his waist and groans against the moon every night, and must live in a cave to be Ah?." Icetis glanced at me and scoffed at my inertial thinking, "Did not listen Does the devil also have a private life? When you see Fallen Apostles wearing clothes, you should know that they usually worry about whether they should put autumn pants in their socks ... "
I: "... Fallen Apostles don't wear autumn pants, right?"
Icetis: "... Concubine is just an example."
"Okay, you two have the time to study these desperate things, it ’s better to save time and effort to go out to explore the way," Shandora slaps on the shoulders of Icetis and me. . "
The shuttle landed steadily on an open take-off and landing platform. For the first time, throughout history stepped on the Fallen Apostles living planet. Although the scenery of surroundings is not too surprising, I am still quite excited. With this excited and novel mood, I took a deep breath — the air in this broken place was so thin that I almost didn't catch my breath, and the atmosphere of this planet is absolutely free of oxygen!
Shandora closes eyes and diffuses her mental power volume. The special talent of the spirit-slayer allows her to find the enemy better and faster than any life to scan equipment, but even then she still finds nothing: "The entire planet It's empty, are they really gone? "
Icetis took out her Meteor Hammer Bible from the portable space and made a gesture against a ghost obelisk in the distance: "Then if you say that the concubine would smash that thing, would you seduce it? How many ambushes are coming? "
I rolled her eyes: "You can try it."
As soon as the voice fell, I heard a sound of "huh" coming from my ear. Icetis's brick Bible broke out and turned into a golden light, and then it was a big explosion that moved like a mountain, far away The tower at the place slowly collapsed. It ’s not just kinetic energy that Bing Sister throws out the Bible, it can also produce a shocking holy light impact after hitting the target. There is a praise cloud: the thunder is thundering, not as good as the ice master meteor hammer-this sentence It does n’t make much sense to rhyme. In short, Icetis used an unprecedented level of action to blast off a Youneng Obelisk thousands of meters away on the spot, just to see if there was an ambush in this place.
I stared at this scene with a stunned expression, and finally could n’t help jumping: "You really come to Ah?"
Icetis took a pergola and watched the smoke after the obelisk collapsed. He turned his head and gave me a white eye: "Nonsense, the concubine is a person with ID Card. Do you know what you say."
"Your ID Card hasn't asked Sicar for two pieces and five pieces," Shandora took the next sentence and stepped forward, "It looks like there is really no one here, I to scan in this direction There is a command post, let's go there to see the situation. Icetis, you put the meteor hammer away, and then throw me together with A'Jun to beat you to believe? "
"This is the Bible, is it a very serious thing, don't you know?" Icetis said so, but he still put away the big killer that could throw a crater out of it, even if this guy knows Do you have the Bible instead of the seal?
Walking for a while in this city built by the enemy, I found that there is still some difference from the colonial point in the imperial zone: except for the dark red tone of to be everywhere, I ca n’t see anything here. Civilian or "living" things.
Fallen Apostles does not need any life and entertainment that has nothing to do with combat and "great cause". I once heard Harlan said that the days in the abyss area are more boring than the Old Empire years. Now I see this except for factories and military camps. In the city of other buildings, I finally realized the feeling of the former Fallen Apostles-I am afraid that life in such a dead place ca n’t even accept Pandora. After all, the little war madman likes to eat sweets or sit on the roadside pillars in his spare time. Draw a bunch of one-and-a-two contours, I guess Fallen Apostles usually owes even this kind of spare life.
"This place feels gloomy," Shallow followed behind me step by step, watching the empty building complex of surroundings couldn't help but whisper, "It seemed to be the same when Shadow City was first built."
"Everyone is gone, but the building is still running." Shandora pointed to a small facility next to it. This is a crystalline spire that is only a few meters high. It is used to provide additional energy broadcasting for the surrounding buildings. Now it is It is still running as usual, with a slight red ripple on the crystal surface, and a low buzzing sound can be heard when approaching. The buildings of surroundings are also almost the same: they are all in normal operation, as if the city was full of enthusiasm just a second ago.
"When the Imperial Fleet sent to this World, there was no to scan until someone left from here," Shandora thought, "So the garrison of Universe should have been evacuated before we came here ... this anyway It is also unclear to explain that a border World should not empty the army under any circumstances, and even if the personnel are evacuated, it seems too abrupt: the facilities in the city have not been closed yet. "
"at this moment is still entangled with the problem of empty cities," Icetis sneered. "They have opened the World barrier, and the sovereignty of the entire Universe is handed over. Is there something weirder than this?"
We quickly found what Shandora called the "command post", a place that looks no different from the surroundings boxy building.
"I sensed that there is a lot of information flow pointing to this building, and it also has the largest number of backup energy lines in the entire city," Shandora said as he stepped forward and opened the gate of the command post. "Oh ... Sure enough As I thought, they even canceled the access control system. "
Pandora and Viska immediately took out two top beam pillar cannons and ran in first. After a while, Viska ran out again: "Brother, no one inside! The equipment in the hall is on!"
The command post, like all the buildings we encountered, is still operating as usual. When we walked into this building, the first thing we saw was a brightly lit and very wide hall. A group of public data terminals arranged along the wall displayed a standby screen. Shandora stepped forward and operated on the data terminal a few times. Whispered: "Standby time has been more than half a month ... indicating that the people here have evacuated half a month ago."
"At that time, we had not yet entered the action plan of the abyss zone," Icetis also learned a bit on the data terminal, and found that he couldn't play this, and then he gave up with regret. A few months ago ... they seemed to have attacked God's Domain in those days? "
"80% of this World may have been left by the abyss Xilin," Shandora murmured, "in other words she was ready for the first time, Fallen Apostles's" new army "attacked God's Domain, she left at the border Such a strange place ... what on earth did she want to do? "
I just wanted to talk about my opinion, and I heard an ethereal female voice ringing in the lobby: "Guess what I want to do?"
Everyone was taken aback by this sound. Pandora and Viska reacted first. They instantly summoned a large number of floating artillery, but they did not find the source of this sound for a long time. Shandora has entered the battle state. Icetis has been in a while holy light Zhong also put on her armor of the Valkyrie, I frowned and looked around, and suddenly found that all Hologram projections in the hall were blinking.
In a buzz of accelerating operation of the equipment, the Hologram images in the standby screen are switched one by one to a strange female figure: wearing a very ordinary black dress, black hair black eyes, long hair and waist , The face is very ordinary, and the mouth has a sloppy smile.
We have never seen this face, but the identity of the other party is coming out. Shandora frowns and looks at the largest Hologram projection in the hall: "Abyssal Spirit?"
"First meeting," every abyss in the hall looked at us with a smile, and then the sight of "they" fell on me and Icetis again, "Oh, it's not all the first meeting, new emperor, And sister God Clan's, we meet again. "
"What are you doing," I looked around. I did n’t see anything like ambushes and self-detonation countdowns except these Hologram images. "So you were finally killed by yourself?"
"Can you say such a thing with such a pleasant expression?" Abyss Xi Ling, as she did last time when she met us, maintained a calm chat tone even in a weird atmosphere, she watched Shandora's battle The posture and the armor of the Valkyrie Icetis, and finally look at the groups of floating artillery in the hall, "Why are you so enemies? You should be very clear that these things can not eliminate a network consciousness-unless you can take me All nodes are cleared. "
Shandora indifferently dispersed the flames of the abyss: "How many nodes can you have left now ... Well, we have arrived here, and hurry up if you have anything."
"Oh, nothing is too important," Abyss Xiling looked unhurried, "Just remind you that it's time to retreat."
