Chapter 157: Untitled (5)
The people of the Mauryan Empire are very different from the rest of the interstellar society, they are content with suffering, and are often able to entertain themselves with optimism in the midst of suffering.
At first, everyone thought that this was the excellent national mentality created by the unique cultural atmosphere of the Mauryan Empire. But after many years of research by experts, it turned out to be a genetic disease that made people blindly optimistic and needed to be treated.
At this time, there were several ancient gods in the Peacock Empire, and the major routes were affected to varying degrees, and the transportation connecting various places was almost paralyzed.
This has caused great distress to people living at the border.
The Peacock Empire is not a federation, and their planetary modification technology is still relatively primitive, and many of the transformed planets only have basic living conditions and cannot be cultivated or grazing.
These planets are concentrated in the border zone.
Now that the transportation has collapsed, they are in a state of extreme scarcity with food, a necessary resource for life.
The central part of the Mauryan Empire has completely lost its ability to effectively control the borders, and they rely only on communications to maintain the empire's rule, but this rule is undoubtedly extremely fragile.
The central government's order to 'cooperate and make it difficult' is non-binding, and the powerful people in the border areas are using their power to amass wealth and resources, and many corpses of starving civilians have appeared in the streets.
"Lord Shiva, give me some water from the Ganges......"
A beggar leaned against the wall and said dying.
The people passing by here did not look at him, they all knew that the beggar must be dead, otherwise he would not have said such nonsense as wanting to drink the water of the Ganges.
The water of the Ganges River is a treasure that only the best people in the imperial capital are qualified to drink, and it would be good for them to have two mouthfuls of cow dung bread in this remote place.
The beggar's breathing became weaker and weaker, his consciousness became dim, and the sky in his eyes darkened.
Someone exclaimed, "Why is the sun gone?" ”
"Look, what's that in the sky?!"
"Run! The devil must be coming! ”
The crowd erupted.
The beggar saw that the sky was dark, not because he had a hallucination before he died, but because the sunlight on the planet had really darkened. Patches of black shadows appeared far beyond the atmosphere, obscuring the light from the stars more and more closely.
Tang Xuan stood behind the glass and looked at the white planet not far away, the last time he looked at a planet like this was when he was crusading against Magma.
"What is this planet called?"
He asked Lin Wan beside him.
Lin Wan replied: "Rock sugar curry - why are you looking at me with such eyes, I'm not kidding, it is really called rock sugar curry when translated." ”
Lin Wan herself wanted to laugh.
"The Peacock Empire has to give every star in their territory a name to show that they are the first in the world in the Peacock Empire." Lin Wan said with a slight mockery, "As a result, the officials in charge of this matter came up with the idea of using food to name it, the uninhabited planet is the food plus number, and the manned planet is the compound of two foods." ”
"It's hard to imagine any interstellar civilization naming planets in such a bizarre way." Tang Xuan teased: "But if it's the nomenclature of the Peacock Empire, then it's fine." ”
As we all know, peacocks have been surprisingly strange since ancient times.
A smile appeared on Lin Wan's face, and she said briskly while looking at the real-time data fed back: "No traces of the flow of faith have been detected, so there are no ancient gods here, and the god-making project should be able to start smoothly." ”
Tang Xuan nodded: "How do you plan to spread faith for Anbei?" ”
"It's quite easy to spread faith in a place like the Peacock Empire, where the people are ignorant, just scare it and then give some benefits." Lin Wan said with a smile, "Because of the ancient gods' troubles, the people on this planet in front of them can't eat anymore, and things should be simpler." ”
Tang Xuan smiled: "Is this a good start?" ”
"What are you talking about?"
Anbei walked from the other side of the hallway.
Tang Xuan turned his head and said to him: "We are discussing how to spread the gospel for my God Anbei, this young man, do you have any ideas?" ”
"Don't tease me." Anbei scratched his head innocently, "I'm under a lot of pressure right now." ”
Tang Xuan stared at An Bei's face and found that An Bei didn't seem to be joking, so he asked curiously, "You are about to become the first artificial god of the Federation, what pressure is there?" ”
Anbei sighed, he walked to Tang Xuan's side, learned Tang Xuan's posture and leaned on the railing next to the glass and said, "I'm afraid that the effect of the god-making project is not as good as everyone expected, and everyone will be disappointed at that time." ”
Lin Wan rolled her eyes: "Do you need to worry about this, our Lin clan and the Federal Academy of Sciences have calculated it, you just need to honestly let faith enter your body." ”
Anbei was silent for two seconds and then suddenly asked, "Does it hurt?" ”
Tang Xuan tilted his head to look at him.
Lin Wan also tilted her head to look at him.
Under the gaze of the two, An Bei's expression only lasted less than five seconds before he collapsed, and he said curtly: "I just ease the atmosphere." ”
"I don't think the atmosphere was tense just now." Tang Xuan paused, "Anbei, you have changed, you have become obscene, you were not like this before." ”
"This happens when the relationship goes on to a certain extent." Lin Wan's eyebrows raised, "Say!" Are you and my sister already ......?"
Anbei lowered his head embarrassedly.
Tang Xuan understands in seconds.
He gossiped: "When?" ”
Anbei replied in a low voice: "After that operation is over......"
In the McGma Raid, many colleagues were unfortunately killed, although they were all resurrected by Tang Xuan in the form of heroic spirits afterwards, but they still touched Lin Yun's heart fiercely.
According to her rich experience, the more fierce the person in the early stage, the more miserable the death in the later stage. As the first person in the God Killing Division at that time, Anbei also loved to plant flags for himself, and he might disappear one day.
So on a rainy night, she took the initiative to invite Anbei to her house to drink, and put an aphrodisiac in the wine, and then naturally spent a wonderful night with Anbei.
Anbei still feels guilty about this.
In fact, he tasted the medicine in the wine that night......
Lin Yun knew that Anbei had an excellent physique, and the medicine he put in the wine was a hundred times the normal dose, not so much that there was medicine in the wine, but that there was wine in the medicine.
Anbei almost spit out after taking the first sip.
He sipped the wine in his mouth for several seconds, and he vaguely guessed what was in it, while Lin Yun was lying on his chest and drawing circles on his chest with his fingers.
He was so distracted that he pretended not to know anything, and drank all the wine without a drop. Thinking back to that night afterwards, he always felt that his approach was not gentlemanly enough, and he always felt guilty.
Lin Wan looked at Anbei: "Hmph, the first artificial god of the Federation, so-so, barely worthy of her." ”
Anbeidon was delighted.
At this time, the Lin family had already left the Federation, and Lin Wan was Lin Yun's parent, she nodded, and this family affair became more than half.
"But I'll have to examine you again." Lin Wan said seriously, "If I find out that you have the slightest bit of pity for her, I will hang you on the flagpole." ”
Anbei said solemnly: "I will definitely not let her down!" ”
Lin Wan snorted lightly and didn't say anything more.
A voice over the air rang out in the hallway: "Arrived in the target system, no signs of activity of the Old Gods have been detected. The local garrison of the Peacock Empire has locked on us, and all units are on alert, ready to engage! ”
Tang Xuan and the others didn't care about this broadcast.
Before they could get here, the Federation had already routed the border guards of the Mauryan Empire on a frontal battlefield.
At this time, there were only two or three big cats and small cats left in the border galaxies of the Peacock Empire, and there were at best two or three hundred warships here, and there were more than 10,000 warships escorting the god-making project, and the number was so large that even the light of the stars was obscured.
The local garrison of the Mauryan Empire may not even consume one percent of the durability of the flagship shield before it will be wiped out.
Sure enough, Tang Xuan and the three of them didn't feel anything, and the radio began to inform that 'the enemy army has been completely annihilated, and the Marine Corps will be sent to take over the city as originally planned'.
Tang Xuan saw through the glass some landing modules flying to the white planets in front of him, and slightly estimated in his heart that there were probably more than 10,000 Federation soldiers in these landing modules.
The planet was only one of the planned targets, and because of its low level of modification, it was inhabited by less than 100 million people, mostly miners, with only a small number of low-level armed guards.
Ten thousand soldiers are enough to take control of the planet.
What's more, the resources on this planet have been depleted, and the Federation can bring them supplies, and they will definitely not resist.
The radio sounded again: "Target chocolate curry star, the jump is about to begin, and the units immediately return to their seats!" ”
The moment the battleship enters the jump state, it will have a large load on the things inside, and if it is not fixed well, it is easy to fly out.
Tang Xuan and the three of them relied on their strong physique, and no one moved.
After three minutes, the jump starts.
Tang Xuan felt his body sink suddenly, but soon returned to normal, he looked up and looked out, the scene in front of him quickly transformed into a colorful river of light particles after a brief period of darkness.
Anbei looked at the scene outside the glass and complained: "I thought it was very beautiful on the first day, but now I am tired of seeing it, and I really want to go to the ground earlier." ”
Tang Xuan nodded lightly: "It should be just these days." ”
Lin Wan said in a low voice: "Don't look at it, this jump will take at least half an hour, let's go to lunch first." ”
The three of them walked down the hallway, laughing and talking.
After the jump, they traveled to another frontier system, and the fleet repeated the previous move: eliminate the local garrison, drop the Marine Corps, and take over the local planet.
In the following week, the fleet did the same, conquering more than 300 galaxies on the border in turn, absorbing 26 billion people, and the god-making project was officially launched.
"Look, what's that!"
"Shiva bless!"
"Hahaha, destroy it!"
“......”
Hundreds of landing capsules broke through the atmosphere and rushed to the surface of the planet.
The protective layer on the surface of the landing module rubbed violently against the atmosphere, and the high temperature ignited flames, making the landing modules look like the world-destroying meteors in the mythology of the Mauryan Empire.
The landing module slowed down close to the ground and released a condensation spray to extinguish the flames attached to the outer walls, slowly descending into the streets of the city.
The bilingual radio was played on a loop: "Your territory has been taken over by the People's Federation, all personnel immediately return to their homes to wait for notification, and those who disobey the order will bear the consequences!" ”
Click! (Shooting at the sky)
Most of the people ran home in trepidation, and the few who had to linger on the streets for physical reasons or homelessness were taken in by Union soldiers, and within three hours the planet was quiet.
Tang Xuan walked out of the landing capsule, he looked towards the alley on the side of the road, and saw a thin corpse lying not far from the alley. There was no blood on the ground, indicating that the body had nothing to do with the Union soldier, and it should have starved to death.
A sigh came from behind him: "Alas. ”
Tang Xuan turned his head and asked, "What's wrong with you, you feel sorry for the civilians here?" ”
"If he were alive, he would be able to contribute some faith to me, right?" Anbei was a little regretful, "I really don't know why the Peacock Empire wants to colonize the border, they obviously don't have the ability to transform the planet at all." ”
Tang Xuan blinked.
He found that Anbei really didn't seem to be as upright as before, and became a lot more worldly, because he had seen more things during his absence?
Tang Xuan shook his head: "This country always does such things, just get used to it." I estimate that it won't be long before this country is removed from the interstellar society. ”
The speed at which the Old Gods have grown and their desire for population is unimaginable, and several gaps have been opened in the Peacock Empire's causeway, which will not heal with the passage of time, but will only grow larger and larger until the dam collapses completely.
Anbei sighed: "It's too miserable. ”
"We are also mud bodhisattvas crossing the river now, and it is difficult to protect ourselves, how can we have the heart to sympathize with them." Tang Xuan turned around and looked around at the humble buildings around him, "The fleet has assigned this planet to you autonomy and let you try to gain faith on your own, what are you going to do?" ”
After thinking for a while, Anbei said with a bitter face: "I don't know, I don't have a clue, why don't you give me an idea?" ”
Tang Xuan smiled: "Why don't you try the knowledge in the book?" ”
"What book?" Anbei was in a trance for a moment, "Should you mean ......?"
Tang Xuan said calmly: "Criminal Law." ”
Anbei hesitated: "This is not appropriate, right?" ”
Tang Xuan glanced at him lightly: "Then do you have a better way, I can listen to you, anyway, this is your god-making project." ”
Anbei frowned and pondered, and after a while, he coughed lightly: "Or I'll listen to you." ”
The next day
"Have you heard, Xin'anbei, have something to eat?"
Several people gathered in the corner of the neighborhood to talk.
Another person asked curiously, "I've heard, what kind of god is Anbei, the god of food?" ”
The person who opened the conversation whispered, "No, Anbei is the father of Lord Shiva!" ”
Someone doubted, "Lord Shiva has a father?" ”
Another frowned: "I've never heard of it." ”
The talker lowered his voice and said, "What if there really is?" The federal army said that whoever believes in the god of Anbei will send food to whomever they want, and there is already a queue over there. ”
One person was particularly excited: "This is blasphemy against Lord Shiva!" Damn heretics! ”
A few days later, the man starved to death, and all that remained was people who were willing to believe that Anbei was the father of Lord Shiva.
