Chapter 1179: Dead Workstation
Chapter 1179 Lifeless Workstation
"It may be spectacular later" Xiaoxue grabbed my hand and said mysteriously, the mysterious look on the bear child's face made people very curious, I knew that she must have "seen" something through her special eyes, but I didn't ask much, because I knew that this child had a problem with her mother: I never said what I knew, I never said it completely, and I said it comprehensively and described vividly and colorfully, and I was basically fooling people.
Engineering ships began to drop probes with transition functions in various places in space, and these probes instantly reached the end of this small "universe" with a radius of only tens of thousands of kilometers, and formed countless groups of symmetrically distributed spatial distortion generators, the function of these generators is to "invert phase" space. Spatial inversion is a tricky thing that sounds like it, but it's actually ...... In fact, it is really a really unconscious technique, and its simplest description is: suppose space is a Rubik's cube, it has countless levels, and the observer is a creature that can only understand the neat picture, and if the demonic aspect is disturbed to the observer, then this is incomprehensible to the observer. The normal space is orderly, equivalent to a neat Rubik's Cube, and the observer is a conscious creature located in the space, all information will be presented to the observer at the same level in the normal state, such as mass, light, gravity, size, etc., which you are familiar with, can be used to describe the adjectives of foreign objects, they are normally located at the same "level", so that you can perceive, this is the neat state of the Rubik's Cube. The process of inversion is to disrupt this neat state, after an entity is inverted, it is equivalent to the side of the Rubik's Cube that is disrupted, and all the information drifts to other places, and because the observer is a creature living in the "current level", for the observer, the inverted thing is equivalent to disappearing.
The process and result of this is obvious, with only a slight offset of a single value to make the Rubik's Cube fall from "neat" to "untidy". This operation is usually used to conceal and protect important facilities, because it has good encryption: as long as you don't master the algorithm, you will never know which side of the object you are looking for has been flipped, for the observer of the lower dimension, the object in the inverted state is actually entering the space that is always one dimension higher than your perspective, and the high-dimensional space has an infinite number of possibilities (think of the dimension difference database), which is equivalent to a Rubik's Cube with an infinite number of orders and countless faces, and what you are looking for is in these countless - So as long as you don't have a device that uses the same algorithm to crack the operation, the odds of finding something hidden are infinitely zero.
Therefore, although the strength of the Protoss's technique is not bad, they are also at a loss in the face of an imperial facility that has been solidified by the end of the world realm and is forever in a state of inversion. Mathematics majors with master's and doctoral degrees are bull x, right? But without touching the game, can he know how much blue a level 90 naked mage doesn't turn on the buff per second...... Well, don't talk about it.
The spatial distortion generator has completed synchronization and began to "pull" the dislocated space back to its original position, just like rearranging a messed Rubik's cube, people who have been in contact with the Rubik's Cube know that although it looks very head-scratching, as long as you understand the principle of the Rubik's Cube, it is not difficult to reorganize it, no matter how high the order of the Rubik's Cube is, the algorithm of the reorganization process is unchanged, at most it will greatly increase the workload. In the end, the Empire's inverted phase technique is an encryption method that prevents the outside and does not defend the inside, and no one thought that the empire would split and deal with itself one day, so many things that use encryption algorithms can be cracked by the empire's equipment themselves, and the inverted space in front of us is an example, in less than two minutes, all the dislocated spaces are marked, and then put together one by one.
In an instant, the hidden truth is presented to us.
A blood-colored vortex of space, which seemed to swallow up the entire world, occupied all of our vision...... No, it's not just a whirlpool, it's a storm that stretches for tens of thousands of kilometers! The chaotic and crazy colors of blood and black twisted to form the eye of the storm, and all of us, standing right in the middle of it!
One second ago, there was only a chaotic and gloomy cloud of air in front of him, and the next second, he was in the eye of a storm that could force normal people out of claustrophobia and vortex phobia, and the visual impact was huge, Rao was even a storm planet like the god of fog, and he was also startled in the face of this situation, and the shallow was even more exaggerated - he disappeared in front of us with a sting, and only reappeared after a few seconds, and patted his chest in fear: "Whew...... Switched to Li Personality went back to the spaceship, drank a cup of tea, listened to soft music, slept again, watched two movies, listened to two cross talks, and finally calmed down - people have a fear of whirlpools. β
Me: "......"
The Father was also stupid: "...... That's it for a while...... Well, as you said, she's pretty good. β
I knocked Xiaoxue's head lightly, knowing in my heart that this girl must have been holding back and wanting to see her father being frightened, but unfortunately, although this blood-colored storm that penetrates the sky is indeed very tiring, but I have seen a scene that makes people tremble even more, known as the ruthless character who can not change his face as long as his eyes are closed in front of him, how can he let a bear child get his wish?
"What the hell is going on with this storm?" I couldn't help but look at Father, but the other party spread his hands very shamefully: "You ask me and I ask who to go, this is your thing - I am here to lead the way." β
Well, I forgot about it. It seems that the expert group still needs to contact the expert group, and the expert group has replied that they have sent engineering aircraft to investigate the storm wall. The blood-colored vortex in front of them made the experts puzzled, in their impression, the empire did not have any facilities to produce this kind of scene, so many scientists suspect that this is the original assumption that the normal facilities in this universe have gone berserk, resulting in an energy storm, due to the influence of the end of the world, everything in this universe is fixed like a snapshot in the few hours when the end of the world occurs, even with this energy storm, it has also hovered in the reverse state for tens of thousands of years.
A few of us hovered in mid-air, and after getting used to it for a while, the huge vortex had no effect on my visual impact, but its blood-red color was very uncomfortable, but just as I was thinking about whether to wear sunglasses to protect my body and mind, the news came from the engineering plane: they found a workstation in the storm wall that still had an energy response, and if I guessed correctly, it should be the research facility that the empire had built here back then.
Everyone immediately boarded the engineering ship and headed for their destination, and soon we were through the raging storm wall into an even crazier area. I noticed that the moment I passed through the storm wall, the probe of the engineering spacecraft showed a high energy reading, and the energy read was strange, ranging from ghost energy to ordinary electromagnetic energy, making people wonder if this storm could be a microcosm of the end of the world: at the moment of the collapse of the universe, all the energy in this space with a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers was absorbed.
In the storm wall, the torrent of energy swept by is of course countless times more powerful than the eye of the storm, and it is mixed with a large number of material fragments and elementary particles that can no longer be analyzed, perhaps after everything in the world is torn to the extreme, it must be a red and black tornado. Thankfully, the envelope wasn't much of a threat to our shields, and we arrived at the miraculously surviving Workstation in the midst of a seemingly spectacular energy storm: a hexagonal structure suspended in the air, large in size, presumably with an intact inhabited quarter, and judging by the intact platform at its base, it was originally a space structure. Its anchoring system must still be functioning, as the entire workstation remained stable in the raging hurricane around it, like a lonely island in the waves. The engineering ship found a universal locking port at the end of the platform where the hexagonal building was located, but we soon found that the locking port was damaged and the workstation itself no longer responded to any external signals, so the final solution was to leave the ship a few hundred meters away from the workstation and approach the target in a dog-planing style.
β¦β¦ That's weird! Anyway, it's a scrapped workstation, so it's a big deal to forcibly connect it. After smashing through the locking port of the workstation platform, the engineering ship and the space workstation formed a dumbbell-like assembly, and we reached the site platform through a twisted and broken suspension bridge.
The whole crash landing process was perfect, and I found the feeling of a blockbuster - it would have been perfect if I hadn't been holding a camera all the way around.
The assistant technicians and engineers, dressed in protective light armor and reinforced shields, disembarked from the spaceship, quickly and orderly assigned their respective tasks, and began to inspect the large-scale abandoned workstation: in fact, they were the real protagonists of this mission, such as exploring ancient facilities, studying old imperial machines, measuring data in the storm core of the otherworld, and other particularly sophisticated work that sounded particularly sophisticated, certainly not something that a few laymen could deal with- Even the Father God is just a fungile here, and we follow the engineering ship to the good news that the leader went to the front line to direct the work, and to say that it is unpleasant...... Let's just pick up the nice ones and say okay?
"It's supposed to be part of a larger space structure, and you look at those long broken bridges at the end of the platform." Xiaoxue pointed to the far end of the platform, and following the direction of her finger, she could see several gray-white alloy roads extending from the platform where the workstation was located, but they had all been torn, and the part on the opposite side of the road was gone, leaving only twisted metal stubble, and the pipes poked out of those stubbles, squeaking and sparking due to some resonance phenomenon under the stimulation of the energy storm.
Viska kept pulling probes out of his personal space, and by this time he had a large swarm of buzzing bees (I'm embarrassed to say they looked more like flies) behind him, and then the probes disappeared neatly before our eyes, and the cat Hitomi Lori explained: "I'll send them to the neighborhood to see if there are any other workstations, and since this site has been preserved, maybe there are other surviving parts - brother, I'm smart, right?" β
As soon as Viska finished speaking, Pandora began to scramble to put the probe - sometimes Pandora is indeed not as bright as Viska's head, is this because the former's stuffy gourd attribute is too severe?
"The energy storm here was supposed to be an abyss suppression system," a senior technician sent the latest detected data, looking at this report, Xiao Xue analyzed it with great concern, "Now the probe plane can't get close to its bottom layer, but there may have been an abyss gate there, which is the entrance when diving, and the storm body was established around the abyss gate, and it is estimated that it is in a 'self-mirroring' state...... Oh, that is, no matter which direction you enter the storm from, you will find yourself facing the upper entrance of the storm, a suppression system designed to combat the special 'eternal two-dimensional plane' state of the Abyssal Gate, which has an infinite number of ontologies in countless directions, collapsing into a single one depending on the observer. Direction' to maximize the inhibition of anything released by the Abyss, which is less common due to the difficulty of setting up, and the fact that most Abyssal Gates don't need to be bothered to preserve for so long. β
Usually it looks so twenty-five or eighty-thousand, but I didn't expect Xiaoxue, a bear child, to know a lot in this regard, maybe as she said, she began to receive a full set of elite education that imperial princesses should receive since she was a child, she is a genuine royal elite, not a cute vase - this is the only thing I feel comfortable with this child. Of course, one thing that is not gratifying is: In order to give her this level of elite education, what kind of tutors did Lin Xue and I find for her......
Because the engulfing energy storm is also mixed with a large number of particles of unknown composition (it is estimated that all types of matter in the entire universe can be found in these particles, right?). After the wind hit the shields around them, the particles of matter were decomposed, forming a faint halo of light, like a beautiful iris coating, through this thin layer of light mist, I looked up at the workstation in front of me that had been standing in the storm for tens of thousands of years, and suddenly noticed a blue flash of light at the top of it.
At first I thought it was a hallucination, but soon a second flash appeared, a blue glow that stood out against the backdrop of a black-red storm, and now it was certain that it was from a facility at the top of the workstation.
"It's still functioningβ" I gestured to the top of the workstation, "probably a guard, or I can't explain how the workstation survived to this day." β
At this moment, the engineering corps also received good news: they found the entrance to the workstation.
The entrance is hundreds of meters away, and it has been buried by a large number of collapsed alloy plates and black crystalline materials of unknown composition, and if it were not for the credit of the fluoroscopic scanning equipment, no one would have imagined that behind this pile of garbage is a passage. The engineer commanded the autonomic machinery to cut and clear all the obstacles in the doorway, revealing a hexagonal alloy gate - perhaps the accumulation played a protective role, and the gate looked much newer than the surrounding walls. Of course, this doesn't make much sense: depending on the degree of damage to this broken place, this gate is new, and it can't be swiped at this time.
An assistant technician removed the data port next to the gate, connected his scan terminal to the data port, and reported to us half a minute later: "The internal defense facilities have been taken offline, and the ...... can be directly destroyed"
"Boom!" A loud bang interrupted the assistant technician's last words, and the alloy gate had cracked a large hole under the bombardment of conventional artillery, revealing the dark hallway inside, and Pandora took her precious hand cannon in her arms, wiped the muzzle, and then gave me a blank expression - she was trying to pull back a game from Viska in terms of mobility.
Me: "...... Well, move forward, stay safe, and it is strictly forbidden to throw bombs anywhere. β
Entering through the gate, there is first a dark corridor, and then God the Father himself comes and says, "Let there be light." This made me feel very emotional, and then led by the sentry probe scanned by the structure of the workstation, the group began to make their way to the first room that appeared to have important equipment. There's a faint and eerie gravity in this huge lifeless building, and it seems like its gravity generator is still lingering, but the gravity generated is forty-five degrees above the ground - so we all decided to block out the gravitational field here, and it didn't have much effect anyway. There was an unusually dead silence in the long corridor, and the original shrill howling wind was isolated from the distant entrance, as if it were coming from another world. Away from the black-and-red and oppressive sky background, I felt a little more comfortable inside the lifeless workstation: though I would have liked both things to be resolved quickly if I could.
The engineers and the Xiling technicians were divided into more than a dozen squads according to the ratio of three to one, and as they passed through one fork in the road and the other troops were divided, soon only the last group of staff was left around us: they were the senior technicians and the best soldiers in the team, and they would always move forward with us in the coming time. The probe has roughly figured out the structure of the workstation, which is a four-story building, with a small number of floors, but the height of the floor is exaggerated - maybe this is because it has some special facilities inside that occupy a lot of space? God knows. The workstation was supposed to be five floors, but the topmost part of it was destroyed, a little further up from the suspected shield generator, and now only a few fragmented crystalline domes remained, which is unfortunate because, according to the structure of the workstation, it is likely to be where important observation equipment is located, and its destruction means that much of the data has been destroyed by the energy storm.
The Protoss Sliver Five, Father God and several Protoss scholars followed us all the way, except for the Five, everyone else had curious looks on their faces: they probably didn't have much contact with Imperial technology, and the things here were very strange to them, and Bing Teis decisively went up and slapped a slap when one of the Protoss reached out to pick at a protrusion on the wall next to him: "Don't be like a dirt bun, okay?" β
Father smiled awkwardly, well, very embarrassed - these usually majestic gods are really cute in front of their own people, and they are a little too cute! Can that uncle over there stop taking pictures everywhere like shallow!? You're God! (To be continued.)
