Chapter 13: Monster Planet (11)
As the feast ended, two robots walked slowly with light steps, invited Aixif's patriarch Andolph, and led him to a hidden room. Seeing this, Maury and Dordo breathed a sigh of reliefβthe lord finally spoke. Since he asked Andorf to go, it means that he does have a need, and he thinks that it is something that Andorf can meet. In any case, this is much better than holding it all the time, at least there is a chance to repay the debt on your side......
As for Andorf...... He has seen a lot of big scenes, and he should be able to handle such a situation.
ββββ
The soundproofing of the room was excellent, and perhaps the noise from the outside world had subsided, in which Andorf could barely hear any noise. Nobita was still wearing the black tights cape and sitting across from him with an ambiguous smile on his face. Danmosir, on the other hand, stood behind Nobita with a blank face, the Prime Minister's robe fluttering loosely, making him look like a strangely dressed bodyguard, and Andorf felt his peculiar eyes watching him, but looked closely...... Dan Moshar didn't really look at anyone, he just stared silently at the void in front of him.
"Allow me to pay my respects once again, my lord." Before he began, Andorf bowed gracefully and lowered his posture, "Not only did you take in the homeless Alatram, but you also entertained us...... I can't imagine your motives, but anyway...... Say, by the grace of recreation, I will answer you to the best of my ability. β
"Very well, you are very straightforward, Andorf...... This is your advantage. Nobita didn't pretend to prevaricate, just smiled slightly, and admitted generously, "Yes, I do have the heart to help you, but I'm not a philanthropist either...... When doing things, we must always pay attention to a reward. β
"I want your Gamatron algorithm." "For this reason, I am willing to exchange the coordinates of fifty habitable planets with you." It's not just the coordinates...... There is also first-hand information about the planet's climate conditions, geographical location, temperature, continental environment, ecological conditions, and so on! You can choose the best one of them as a place to settle, and the rest of the planets will still be yours. None of them are more than ten light-years away from Earth, which is only a split second for a hyperspace jump. Think of what a fortune you have in your hands! β
ββ¦β¦ Your price is very high, my lord, I personally have no reason to refuse. Andorf didn't immediately agree, he just looked at Nobita without humility and added, "But out of fairness, let me explain to you the Gamatron algorithm - it doesn't guarantee 100% accuracy, at most it can only deduce the 'possibility'." If you use it to predict the future, you may be disappointed. β
"That's okay." Nobita waved his hand and smiled nonchalantly, "For me, a technological crystallization should be worth the price." β
He fully explained how to write the words "wealthy......
"Deal." Andorf's tone didn't fluctuate in the slightest, as if he didn't know what a big deal he had just made, "When you hand over the coordinates to Maury, I'll give you the Gamatron crystal in both handsβthat's the vehicle of numerology, my lord, you can understand it as a processor unique to Lady Axie." β
"Very good......" Nobita felt the obvious relief of Danmospur behind him, and he continued to chase after him, "Then, although I am a little cheeky, I have a second request." β
"It's nothing, my lord. The gifts you have given us are as deep and vast as the heavens, and they are enough for me to do anything. How much Andorf's answer resembles that of a sophisticated and slick politician.
However, the next moment, when Nobita really asked the question, he regretted it again.
β¦β¦
"What is Ghidorah?"
ββββ
At that moment, Nobita noticed a few inches of light burst out of Andorf's eyes, and his whole body became hostile. Of course, the leader quickly suppressed his emotions, but the momentum that erupted in just a few seconds was terrifying enough, enough for Nobita to realize that his essence was not a good gentleman.
"I'm so sorry, my lord...... That's one of our secrets. "We don't even want to mention the name if we have to, it's a lasting curse to our people." β
"But he's your faith, isn't he?" Nobita shrugged his shoulders and smiled noncommittally, but his tone became a little aggressive, "Look, how contradictory your religion is...... Faith and hatred merge and point all the sources to that Ghidorah. Or rather...... You call him 'the end of gold.'" β
"Looks like you've learned enough, lord." Andorf said solemnly, "I think the ambassador behind you saw it in our heads. I don't know what your customs are...... But in our opinion, this is a very rude and very blasphemous behavior. β
This time, it was Nobita's turn to be surprised, "Can you feel it?" β
"More or less...... Exif is a spiritual race, and perhaps that's why we're getting closer and closer to Ghidorah to where we are today. Andorf let out a long sigh and said, "A promise is a promise, and since I have promised you to do as a dog and horse, there is no reason to refuse." Since you are so curious, let me explain it once and for all. β
"Once upon a time, we also went through the stage of Bilusharudo, who was absolutely rational and skeptical of everything. At that time, we adhered to the materialist concept of science and technology and delved into mathematics...... The Gamatron algorithm is a product of that phase. But later, in a calculation of the ultimate proposition of the root of the universe, this algorithm brought us unexpected gains. β
"The results of it show that outside the universe, in the higher dimensional worlds, there is a void monster named Ghidorah. Its essence is that of a Star Eater, possessing the power to devour planets, and doing so for good. This is the beginning and the end of everything, and our universe is a huge ranch compared to Him, He covers everything, He contains everything! β
Thus was born the Axif religion...... In madness, we sacrificed our home planet to Ghidorah just to be able to see him and see his body that was infinitely close to the truth. What a great, beautiful body, I can't even describe it in words...... Listen up, Lord of the Lunar Base! In this universe, humanoids are not rare, one could even say everywhere, but they are nothing more than seeds. Do you understand? You, me, and the ambassador behind you, are all seeds! Civilization is the flower! Flowers spawned by seeds. And the monster ...... It is the fruit of civilization! β
Andolph was very excited when he entered missionary mode, as if he wanted to pour all his concepts into Nobita's head at once.
"The universe is full of colorful monsters...... Just for Ghidorah to pick. He is the god at the top of the food chain. β
ββββ
After saying this, the two sides ushered in a long period of silence. The monster that Andorf said was really terrifying, and even a well-informed person like Nobita and Danmoshir needed some time to react. A creature that stands above the universe and at the top of the food chain...... What does his existence mean for the universe?
"......" Nobita grinned, licked his lips excitedly, and showed an inexplicable smile.
"Andorf, can you let me see him?"
Andorf finally opened his squint completely, and looked at the boy in front of him with a look of consternationβhe had most of his body wrapped in a characteristic bulletproof straitjacket and sat in a chair, his upper body tilted slightly forward, like some kind of aggressive nocturnal animal.
Yes, like a bat.
"With all due respect, Lord Lord...... You are crazy. "You are not the first to be interested in Ghidorah, and you may not be the last. But that's untouchable, that's taboo, no matter what civilization it is. I am very grateful to you for saving us, but at the same time, I have to point out that you will kill yourself by being overly curious. β
"Oh? Is that really the case? Nobita waved his hand a little forcefully and said with a smile, "Did Dan Mospur tell you that I am a very curious person?" β
"Beyond a certain limit, curiosity can also bring disaster to people." Andorf said, "Humanity has gradually awakened Godzilla because of the overexploitation of nuclear energy; The overuse of technology by the people of Birusaru has created a multiplying city; And we, Mrs. Exy...... Because of the excessive exploration of time, space and cause and effect, Ghidorah was incurred. All three races were initially just curious, but eventually ...... It is not without reason that they got on the same shuttle bus to exile. β
"Then let me see! The so-called truth endpoint...... What a majestic existence. Nobita said nonchalantly, "You should see that my ambassador and I are drifting through the universe for the sake of adventure...... Since you have a better monster than Godzilla here, I have no reason to let it go. β
"Alas...... Please don't call him a monster. Either way, he remains an indispensable pillar of faith for our people. The fact that we became aware of his existence before any other race gave us a mysterious self-confidence and convinced us that none of the suffering we are experiencing now is real suffering. Andorf finally relented, "Since you insist on watching it...... Then please prepare a spacious venue for me. β
"Allow me to invite God to you."
ββββ
In another square of the lunar base, the hustle and bustle of the world is swept away, and only the steel jungle in the background will emit the sound of "Didi" self-examination from time to time.
Andorf held the seven-pointed star and Gamatron crystals in his hands, his index and middle fingers crossed, facing the void, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was meditating. And as his "thought current" surged, groups of snow-white data dots began to emerge on the crystal, nested together, as if to transmit the coordinates of this place to a certain creature. He finally opened his mouth slightly, and in a chant-like tone, he sang loudly, "...... Come, Ghidorah, and bring us the end of glory! β
