In short, what happened at this workstation, and even in this universe, is now unknowable, and we can only hope to get a little answer from a few other devices that have barely started up and haven't burned down yet. ,!

"They run for about thirty minutes at most, the core has been partially destroyed, the data transfer has failed, and now the subordinates try to extract as much information as possible according to the priority of the records in these devices." The senior technician is operating quickly in front of a buzzing data terminal, the side guard plate of this old antique has been removed, and the crystallized grid inside continues to burst out abnormal ghost energy sparks, which is a symptom of the failure of the system safety lock, but after all, it is still barely running, and the processing core that can no longer be repaired can still provide users with basic query services before it burns out, and soon, the words jitter appeared in the center of the holographic screen above the data terminal: the operator has passed the authentication and is extracting the recent system logs...... Time clock verification failed, unable to connect to the data network, running in offline mode, system time reset to the initial date. This machine provides limited query services.

"What is the most important research project to be conducted locally." I said immediately.

"Keywords: Search, Local Intelligence, Last-Minute Research," the system was delayed for a second or two to start working, and then a series of images appeared on the holographic projection - including moving images, which were supposed to be the scene in the research room when the workstation was not yet abandoned, and some exterior footage. Several of the images are pitch black, with the words Data Destruction in the center, but the rest of the images are fairly clear. The busy work in the sample analysis room can be seen, as well as the true face of the research sample hovering on a gravity-free platform in the center of the room: something twisted ore-like that looks like a stone that has been dragged straight back from the asteroid belt.

We zoomed in and froze on the rocks, which were grayish-black. Parts of the surface are covered with traces of melting. and some loose holes, not much different from ordinary asteroid ore, but it is clear that they are the last research samples of this workstation before it was abandoned - research stones?

Those imperial scientists who even dared to rewrite the laws of the universe after abandoning the lower limit. Built such a massive storm system and high-tech workstation to study the stone inside? Is this the kind of rock that ever popped out of the monkey back then?

I was about to complain about this, when out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly saw another picture, which was taken from a slightly distant angle, and a group of Imperial scientists in white uniforms appeared on the screen. The Imperial Scientist didn't care much, but there was one face that made me stunned for a moment: if I remember correctly, it was Occam!

Switching pictures, continuously zooming in, that face finally became clear, and it was finally certain that the face was familiar to me, and it was the chief scientist of the old empire who had brought us countless troubles before, and finally died in the Archive of the Archive: Occam. The guy nicknamed the honest man. Of course, I've considered similar looks, but the senior technician in the picture is clearly the leader of the entire team, and the clothes on his body and the position he stands on are enough to suggest that, so it's probably not wrong to be who he is. I really never expected it. This haunting guy, who has been dead for so long, will still hurry up and jump out to be shocked: he actually appeared in such a place!

Occam was a central figure in the old empire's deep-diving schemes, leading most of the related projects, including the design of the prototype of the deep-diving vessel. And his appearance in the recorded pictures here reaffirms the direct relationship between this universe and the planning of deep diving. It also shows that the research projects that have been carried out here may be more important than we expected at the beginning.

At this time, the data terminal in front of me finally showed the rest of the files:

Archival Header: Item No. EN-166 Sample Analysis.

File Generation Time: Ignored; File Generation Location: Ignored; Archival reviewer: Chief Technician, Occam

Nature of Specimen: Mild Abyss Reaction - Solid Substance, Threat Level D, Potential Threat Level Expected to Rise to B, Previous Review Conclusion Recommends that the Specimen's Threat Level be increased in the near future and transferred to a higher level analysis room for study.

Sample source: Inside the Abyss Gate, the collection site is located near the critical point, based on the conclusion of the previous analysis, it is speculated that the sample is extremely likely to come from the other side of the critical point, and there is a high probability that it was consciously sent by the civilization on the other side. However, since no signs of activity or debris of facilities and equipment were found at the collection site, this conclusion is not used as any substantive premise.

Details: One of the results of the 16th substantial dive of the deep diving vessel. In this exploration, the deep-diving vessel reached the ultimate depth of all previous deep dives, but it has not yet crossed the critical point. At the end of the second transmission of the Deep-Dive team, a sample of EN-166 was found during a routine scan, which was determined to be a solid substance (this determination has been confirmed). The EN-166 specimen is the first case of solid matter found below the deep abyssal zone to date, and after preliminary analysis, the specimen has some detectable physical properties, including hardness and optical characteristics, but the specimen is unable to exhibit any mass and energy affinity, for unknown reasons, and it is currently speculated that there is some kind of irreconcilable "incompatibility" between the underlying products of the abyssal and the order world. Statistics on the nature of EN-166 are still ongoing. After testing small samples, it was concluded that the abyssal force had a lethal destructive effect on EN-166, and the damage process and results were exactly the same as the reaction of the material in the order world after being contaminated by the abyss, and it was preliminarily determined that EN-166 was not a natural product of the site where it was found, and that it may have been sent near the critical point for unknown reasons and discovered by a deep-diving vessel. It is speculated that the "civilization on the other side of the strait" is deliberate, and since it has not been possible to establish a stable dialogue with the civilization on the other side of the strait, its motive cannot be determined.

Addendum: The nature of EN-166 has determined a situation that has been speculated before: the products of the lower layers of the Abyss, like the Order, will not be able to cross that chasm, and they—including civilizations on the other side—will also be damaged by the Abyss, and it is highly likely that the specimen will be sent to the vicinity of the tipping point under tight protection, and the specimen will be maintained for a certain amount of time due to the relative calm of the abyssal environment near the tipping point. and was discovered by the Deep Dive Working Group. The "civilization on the other side" may be trying to convey some kind of message or hint to the empire. Further analysis is currently being carried out to verify that the EN-166 can be replicated and that it can be used to enhance the protection of deep-diving vessels.

Additional EDIT: Local Abyssal Gate stability is fluctuating, multiple deep dives may have upset the underlying balance of the suppression system, and the local object is ready to be transferred. EN-166 was included in the third batch of transfers.

Review: Chief Technician. Occam. Review note: As a scientist, don't use too many vague words in your conclusive dossier. In addition, the project transfer plan is not part of the research conclusion and should not be written in the main text.

Additional edit: Yes. Subordinates understand.

Review memo: This sentence does not need to be written in the text!

Additional Editor: Yes, subordinates understand.

Review note: [Data is missing, please check the spare memory]

That's all the data displayed by the data terminal, it's a huge amount of information, and I try to focus on the middle section as much as possible. And to draw a few important conclusions: the old empire did clearly know that there was a civilization at the bottom of the abyss, and it is unknown how the first contact between the two sides was established, but at least there was a certain amount of information exchange between them before the deep-diving ship was killed by Visk. The old empire called the civilization at the bottom of the abyss the "civilization on the other side", which coincided with the other party's reference to the order world as the "other side"; Secondly, the black shuttle we have on hand now is not the first thing to be sent from the "other side", the first thing to be sent is a stone! Of course, that stone did not cross the abyss as successfully as the black shuttle. It was simply sent to the so-called "tipping point", which is the guessed demarcation line between the world of civilization and order on the other side, and then the dive ship salvaged it.

And this workstation, which was studied before it was abandoned. It was the stone from the other side: it was much more powerful than the one that popped out of the monkey.

But it's a great pity that I can't find that stone...... Wait, I seem to have thought of something.

Everywhere you can see here, weathered dust of unknown origin.

"It should ...... No way. "Listening to me say this, even with the degree of her lack of heart, I feel that this guess is not very reliable." Such an important thing, of course, should be taken away along with the abandonment of the workstation, how can it remain here and weathered for tens of thousands of years? ”

"Actually, it's very likely," Xiaoxue suddenly spoke at this time, "Dad, Qianqian's mother, you look at these records, the most difficult record is up to the evacuation of the first batch of materials, and then there is no content, it may be data corruption, or it may be that the second and third batches of materials have not had time to be transported at all, and this sample labeled as EN-166 is expected to be evacuated in the third batch." According to the system log, the reason for the abandonment of the workstation is that the stability of the Abyssal Gate in this universe has fallen below the critical value, and it is no longer possible to continue to support deep diving activities, so maybe ...... Later, there was an accident such as an abyss leak, and the sample was contaminated, so I simply gave up. ”

I couldn't help but reach out and knock on the information terminal next to me: "The sample is contaminated, so give up, this is possible, but ...... The workstation itself was not contaminated, and given the contagious nature of the Abyss, there was no reason why the building could survive after the Abyss leaked. ”

The Father pondered for a moment and made his own guess: "Perhaps we can find the answer at the bottom of the storm: there is a gate to the abyss. The universe was obviously destroyed because of it, but the storm that remained here is still suppressing the Abyssal Gate, suggesting that the Great Explosion was either not that severe, or it was suppressed after the eruption, and I think it might be the latter. ”

I looked at the terminal that kept popping up the "Data Corruption" warning window, the old device had reached its limits, and the last document before it was scrapped had been extracted, and we didn't get any more useful information. The most obscure log of the terminal is the evacuation and deregistration of various research facilities and some samples from the workstation, and does not include the whereabouts of the EN-166 specimen. For now, we can only assume that the dust that pervades the workstation contains remnants of weathered EN-166, but even then, the remnants are presumably mixed with other samples that have not had time to be removed.

The only thing that gives some hope is that the matter coming from the "other side" seems to have one characteristic: the physical and chemical properties are missing, they are not very compatible with the rules of the Order Realm, so they will exhibit strange traits such as lack of mass, energy inertia, and unmeasurability, and if EN-166 retains these properties after being destroyed by the Abyss, we should be able to separate it from the weathered dust here.

After confirming that there is nothing in the workstation that deserves your continued attention. I connected to the fleet on standby in the eye of the storm: "Inform the research ship No. 2 that the shield is charged and ready to enter the bottom zone of the storm." ”

"Oh, Dad, we're finally going on an adventure?!" Xiaoxue immediately rubbed up with a red face. A look of excitement.

I took a look at this high-efficiency gold n-in-one limited edition bear child who has both Lin Xue's ability to make trouble and shallow fun. A slap on the back of her head, then a finger pointing around: "You stay, dig the sand." ”

"What?" Xiao Xue showed a stupid expression that she couldn't react.

"Take someone to clean up all the weathered dust here and collect it." I pinched Xiaoxue's nose and strangled her protest in the bronchi, "Go back and we're going to organize people to separate the wreckage of EN-166 from inside: if anything." ”

Xiaoxue looked like she was going crazy: "Dad! You can't do this! I don't want to dig sand! I won't play with dirt since I was six years old, okay...... Eh, Dad, don't go! Feed! I'm not done yet! Why do you want me to watch people dig sand myself......"

"So what, we really just threw that kid away?"

When boarding the engineering ship to rendezvous with the research ship. Father couldn't help but lean over and ask, I turned my head to look at him, and said from the bottom of my heart, "Do you know the four bear methods of the Dao Bear Child?" ”

God the Father: "? ”

"Do everything they want to make a lot of fun, do everything they are interested in, do everything they want to do all the time welding detonators, sawing light bulbs, lighting firecrackers with gas canisters, and finally let you go to the aftermath."

The Father nodded abruptly, "Oh, you're talking about Cindia, right?" ”

Me: "?! You also have one like this in your family? ”

"Don't mention it, Cindia's child is sad," said the father's face. "She's from a special background, and she's more powerful than adults, and I don't know how much trouble I've had to do by her, in your words, it's all about mixing lime with flour. And back then, it was still a wind and fire duo who formed a group with Bing Tis: Bing Tisi fanned the wind, she lit the fire, and the two acted together, and the brilliant Shenting was restless. ”

I silently turned my head to look at Bingtis. She was the only one of the Protoss Five who was with us right now, and the others were all helping out at the workstation - Ilson opened the shield wall for the workstation. The other person was in charge of refueling, and when she noticed my sight, the female hooligan suddenly smirked: "Oh, hehe, the concubine was selected as the princess's companion as the number one scholar in the divine realm, and she hit it off with Cindia......"

Father God spread his hands: "After two hundred years of companionship, Cindya has learned everything except for not learning divine arts." Luckily, Gati didn't mix with them, otherwise the house wouldn't be able to live there. ”

I think this is conceivable, but I suddenly became curious about another thing: "I suddenly don't understand, how is the growth and development of your god race converted, Bing Teis looks like an adult, and Cindy now looks like she is a circle smaller than Pandora......" As soon as my voice fell, Pandora shook her head happily: it seems that she has just successfully encountered the keyword of this little girl, no matter what the situation, as long as there is a creature smaller than herself, it seems to be a happy thing for PandoraShe has now degenerated to the point of being as tall as a mercury lamp.

"Gati and Cindia? They can become adults," the father shrugged, "it's just a change of form, God is amorphous, for us, the appearance can be changed at any time, but the two children's minds have never grown much, probably because they don't want to grow up, so that's it." You also know the concept of time of our gods, for us, age is a meaningless topic, we do not have a clear dividing line between adulthood and children, the goddess of life can have several coming-of-age ceremonies, our preschool education is from two hundred years old to two million years old students are accepted, the standard of adulthood in addition to the basic age and experience standards, but also depends on whether a god is willing to become an adult. If you don't have a job and your heart is biased towards children, you can still be a child at the age of tens of millions. ”

"That's it." Suddenly there was a little girl's voice next to me, and at the same time I felt someone pull their sleeves, curiously following the reputation, I found myself sitting behind the side of a strange big Lori, pale complexion, pupils like blood, the face was petite and cute, at first glance it was the blood of the dark gods, the most conspicuous thing is that this big Lori still has a demonic silver long hair, the hair has fallen under the seat, the silver-white hair wraps up half of her small body, looking at a kind of weirdness, the other party is wearing a long black dress, How familiar does the style look like, after a few seconds, I couldn't help but speak: "Who are you, this young lady?" ”

"The concubine can't even recognize it?" The long-haired wild loli grabbed my arm and climbed to the front seat, "Eh, it's interesting to change the perspective once in a while, I feel that the vision on my chest has widened a lot, and I can finally see the surface of my feet when I look down - wow, you're quite tall from this angle...... Oh slot, what kind of eyes do you have? ”

Me: "Bingdis?!" ”

"What do you think?" The wild big Lori twisted her body and made the kind of posture that Bing Tis usually showed most often with her hands on her chest, "Damn,I'm really not used to it, somewhere is empty......"

Me: "......"
