Section 382 Discussion

"Really...... Unexpected......" the old woman sighed and looked out the window.

Outside the window at this time, a thick white mist was shrouded. Although it was smoky, the morning light could still easily penetrate it. It's not smog, it's real clouds.

That's right, at this moment, outside the window, it is a white cloud. If you can stand from a distance and look at this side, you can see a white cloud dyed pale yellow by the morning sun, like a tame dog, entwined here for a long time. As for why there are white clouds in this place, the reason is also very simple: because it is high enough.

Although the ground is solid beneath your feet, it is the earth that is high above and suspended in the sky. Of course, it is still an exaggeration to call it "earth", or more accurately, it is "floating city".

Floating Cities and Floating Fortresses may sound very similar, however, the latter are human creations. It is a war machine that combines various technologies such as machinery, electronics, energy, and metals. The Floating City, on the other hand, has nothing to do with people, it is a miracle of nature.

With a sigh, she continued to write with the pen in her hand. Not many people have this habit these days, but she is indeed an old antique who has lived too long (although many people know that her life is coming to an end). The pen can be written directly on the data board and converted into information for display on the terminal. But even so, it's still an outdated approach. However, the old woman's hands have long been unsuitable for typing on the keyboard, and the defects of the tape recorder and the reviewer are obvious. She's qualified to use the latest thought recorder (which she did for a while), but it's not up to par. In the end, she chose to write by hand.

Sitting in front of her was Diemeng, with her hands on her knees, her waist straight, her chest raised, and her eyes level, which was the most formal sitting posture from any angle. The old woman seems to be pestering her - well, it's not appropriate to say that an archon, but that's what happened. She didn't know why. Perhaps, just maybe, the old woman just wants to find someone to talk to, to relieve her boredom and loneliness. This also makes sense considering that the old woman is dying.

"This kind of thing...... In the end, it is inevitable. She tried her best to comfort her. "It was too abrupt when we held the meeting. There are too many people summoned, and since the Stygian Moon has only gotten a half-clawed news, it shouldn't be a case of a traitor at the top, someone should have accidentally leaked the news. ”

The old woman gently put down her pen. She had finished typing and sent a piece of information—I don't know if it was a command or an answer—to someone far away. After doing all this, she turned her attention to her students.

"Kecha Goat played a very interesting trick. She said slowly. "Changed a name, and then erased himself from the river of fate in an instant. He was new, as if he had just come from a foreign land. It is completely incomprehensible how he did it - none of our current theories and conjectures can explain the situation. ”

"I wouldn't be surprised if it was Kecha Goat. The dean ...... "She may have wanted to add a suffix to the title, but whether it was "Your Excellency", "Your Excellency", or the most dignified "Your Highness" or something, but in the end she felt that none of this was appropriate. "After all, he invented 'Devouring', and this magic can only change the whole world...... No, it should be said that it has changed the whole world. There's also demonic metal. Combined, the two have never been more vulnerable to warlocks. ”

"He shook the world, thankfully," the old woman said to the schoolgirl. "Haven't been able to change it yet. But that's a thing of the past, it doesn't matter anymore, I care about the Stygians...... Will they be able to find the intel they need?"

"Hopefully not, but ...... It's hard to say. Butterfly replied. She picked up a piece of paper on the table, it was none other than the mission that Stygian had given her before - not for one person, not one army, but for everyone. Ask spies and scouts to hear about it in a near-explicit way. This is a rare case, and perhaps the matter is so urgent that the Stygian Moon panics and does whatever it takes.

"Yes, I'm a little worried. On the control method of space-time disintegration...... This is a killer feature that will permanently change the balance of power. ”

"Can Kecha Goatt really provide a way to control the disintegration of space-time?" Warlocks are not uninformed country buns, they are also able to roam the sea of ether and come into contact with the advanced civilizations of countless worlds. Even the disintegration of time and space, they have already seen it in other worlds, and have developed many theories and hypotheses to explain it. But all known theories can deduce that there is no solution to this natural disaster of the annihilation level. Because this catastrophe itself shows that the world is collapsing. How do you save a world from collapse? It's as much as creating an immortal life that doesn't conform to basic philosophical logic.

Once the disintegration of time and space erupts, there is no way to stop it. Don't look at the warlocks now, it seems that they control the disintegration of time and space to a certain extent, but this control is very limited. In fact, the Warlocks can only cause the disintegration of space-time, but they cannot stop it or stop its spread. So using it as a weapon, at least for now, is definitely a high-risk tightrope walker, and the *** side said that this time the Banshee Gate incident is the best proof of this.

"He should be able to, or at least that, he is far ahead of us. The old woman sighed again.

This is a dangerous proposition, and according to the basic theory he stated, we must gather the high-dimensional energy we need from other worlds...... We don't know anything about this. This way of thinking, this technology is a completely new field...... And new means that there may be some kind of risk that we don't know about. ”

"But it's an offer we can't refuse. The old woman said. Kecha Goat's proposal must have ulterior motives, so you don't need to ask. But the problem is that no one can resist such an offer. It could even be argued that just getting this technology is worth the risk. Once it can truly control the disintegration of space-time, that is, it can be triggered at any time or annihilated at any time, then Huiyue will occupy an unbreakable dominant position. Even this fateful battle of eternity will see the light of day and end of battle for the first time.

So after Kecha Goyat proposed to the upper echelons of the Huiyue camp, all the previous arguments were suppressed. It turns out, but when the stakes are big enough, all the problems will not be problems. Previously, some people might have thought that the pardon of the Brotherhood of the Dark Alliance (i.e., the recognition of their legitimacy) and the elevation of the status of the Warlocks would inevitably lead to a heated debate at the top, and even countless opposition. Not to mention the concrete implementation, even if it is only superficially dealt with the past, it cannot be done. But when Kecha Goyat made this suggestion, everything fell silent. Even those who value the status of Warlock the most, or those who are most hostile to the Brotherhood of the Dark Alliance (and alien beings like The Destroyer). When they heard about the conditions of Kecha Goat, they would have jumped up and resolutely opposed them as if they had been burned with a soldering iron. But with the addition of Kecha Goat's suggestion, they quickly lowered their voices and had to express their willingness to consider these conditions carefully. Such a statement in itself amounts to acquiescence, at least for the time being.

Maybe it will be implemented in the future, and the implementation will be a problem. Maybe later these things will be overthrown, they will be abolished. But at least for the time being, there is an agreement at the top. In order to get this technique, in order to be able to achieve this advantage in the battle of the faction, a certain sacrifice and effort is worth it. After all, the warlocks knew that their supernatural powers were the source of their status. As long as this power does not change, then even if they lose their status, it will be a matter of time before they are regained.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the Stygian Moon jumped out.

As mentioned earlier, the two camps actually penetrate each other very strongly. Such an order to all the spies naturally fell into the hands of the Huiyue camp quickly. In fact, this can't even be said to be a secret piece of information, because it is not known which Stygian spy came out of the basket and leaked this information that was supposed to be confidential. Now this order is actually circling around in the Huiyue camp. It's the same as the "devouring" magic before.

Now not to mention the spies on the side of the Stygian Moon, even the mid- and low-level Radiant Moon Warlocks almost all know about it. Know that the higher-ups on their side are trying to obtain a very important technology for controlling the disintegration of space-time. And the Stygian Moon is struggling to learn the details of this technology.

"It seems to me that the Moon Warlocks have panicked on this matter. They actually spread this kind of order...... This haste in itself speaks of their panic and weakness, so at the moment they are not afraid. I think Kecha Goyat ...... over there."

"No, my dear student. The old woman interrupted her. "My judgment on this point is different from yours. This order is not a simple order, but a mobilization letter...... They must have deliberately spread the order and wanted everyone to know about it. ”

"Mobilize, mobilize whom?"

"Mobilize our internal undetermined members. The old woman replied. "There are always people who want to defect for various reasons. Too often, they stay here just because they don't know how they will be treated in the past. But now there is this thing...... It's almost like openly declaring that if someone can go with this kind of information, then they will definitely be treated very well. Do you understand?"

Diemeng shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she didn't fully agree with this conclusion. The old woman has struggled all her life, and it can be said that her nerves are too sensitive. "But, dear Mentor, I don't think Hades Moon has any chance of succeeding. ”

This morning, an urgent meeting was held. The meeting held that in order to prevent the leakage of such an important secret, it is necessary to adopt the strictest and most thorough secrecy measures. The High Star, the Dead Old Woman, was chosen to be the sole proprietor of the experiment. A secret law was passed at the meeting, and the old woman was given the utmost authority to do anything that would be beneficial to the experiment—no one else's approval, as long as she thought it was beneficial.

Huiyue's higher-ups still trust the old woman very much. Of course, there are good reasons for this trust, one is that the old woman is strong enough, and the other is that the old woman has proven her loyalty and ability countless times in the past. Of course, there is one last point, that is, the old woman has not lived long, and she is alone, and there is no de jure heir. This means that no matter what kind of power she is given, she does not have to worry about causing sequelae such as a big deal in the future.

"Yes, in order to prevent them from having a chance to succeed, I have decided. The old woman whispered. "Although everyone knows the purpose of the experiment, they don't understand the content of the experiment. They all felt that such an experiment, such a valuable technology, must be very complex and difficult, requiring the collaboration of countless people, and of course, all kinds of resources. But in fact," she said, "she looked at the student in front of her. "None of this is necessary. It only requires a few people, or even one or two. As for the supplies or whatever, it doesn't matter. As long as there are one or two people, the technology can be validated. ”

Diemeng was shocked. "This must be a very high secret, right?" she was a little uneasy. What did the old woman mean by suddenly telling her such a secret?, "Why are you telling me this?" ”

"Because, of course, I've decided to enlist my best students as deputies. The old woman said.

"Me?!" Butterfly Dream shouted a little suffocated.
