Chapter 607: Giants

Chapter 607 Giants

After a grand but boring welcome, a group of Imperial high-ranking officials entered their capital in a vehicle provided by the Consortium Receptionists, and on the way, I finally learned what an exaggerated feat Lilina had had.

Not only did she distribute leaflets and preach at Roland Gale's borders, but this girl even helped Roland Gale sink 120 "Shepherd" warships at the beginning.

By chance, Lilina's fleet was confronted by Roland Gale's exploration force in the Desolate Place, and it was the first contact between the two sides, and a certain priest led hundreds of heavily armed Imperial warships to preach viciously, but at this time, a fleet of shepherds suddenly appeared, and began to attack the Consortium's exploration forces indiscriminately.

After that, the development was very dull, and the nv Pope, who felt that his clerical work was rudely obstructed, jumped like thunder on the spot, waved his master, and released a Qi shè from behind the shepherd, chōu Leng Zi hit the ambush trap and put the cold gun, the Temple Legion was originally numerous, and the troops at hand were all jīng sharp troops, plus having a lewd and vicious commander-in-chief, the battle did not need suspense at all, and more than a hundred of the shepherd's highest but expeditionary-class warships died on the spot. It is the acquaintance of the Templar Legion and the history of Roland Gale.

It was also because of this that Roland Gale became the only force in the universe at that time to know the existence of the Xiling Empire, and the only one who knew that the shepherd was not the only one, but also that there was another "emperor**" in the camp of good and orderly (Lilina's self-evaluation), and that the latter was about to enter the universe Such a series of facts as the potential force.

Lilina was forced to retreat into deep space shortly after that, but her vigorous and unfazed propaganda campaign had a huge effect, although the ordinary people of Roland Gale were not aware of it, but their entire top brass caused a sensation for the news, only considering the stability of the country, and more importantly, the "Templar Legion" had been beaten away by the "shepherds" who had the upper hand, and the Consortium had not announced the information they had received from Lilina to ordinary citizens, until today, The reappearance of the Templar Legion, along with the regular troops of the Empire, reminded the once hopeless Consortium politicians of the Arabian Nights that a certain madman had propagated to them on a certain day, month, and year.

Thinking of the rumors of the "Shepherd's Civil War" that have begun to appear recently and are frequent everywhere in the galaxy, the consortium has finally confirmed one thing: the emperor has really come, and has already begun to act.

That's why we were able to make normal contact with the consortium so smoothly, and if the latter were another civilization, we wouldn't have been able to see a neat welcome procession and a well-rehearsed greeting process in advance, and it would be nice not to face a catastrophe and retreat.

The place where the leader of Roland Gale is located, well, should be called the presidential palace, it is a very tall black sè building, shaped like a rectangular metal block placed vertically, without a single light lù out, and the whole building has no mén and no windows - does it look familiar?

Obviously, this is reminiscent of the abode of the hanging man Aresta, a tomb-like building without mén or windows, but the one before us is noticeably more advanced and grandiose.

"It's really strange that the president's office is set up in such a place, and it's not boring to live in it?"

I made no secret of my surprise and complaints, but the middle-aged man with a military temperament who accompanied me (now we know that his name was "Ling?"). j", what a strange name) just smiled wryly and shook his head: "This is a cruel world, in order to survive, our leader gave up a lot of things, in fact, all other powerful leaders are similar. ”

After entering the strange building through a teleporter, the other Roland Gale officials who accompanied them took the initiative to stop, and along the way they were left with nothing but a few useless nonsense and coughs, and although they were good in terms of composure and etiquette, I felt that they were really bored, and it was good that these people had left on their own initiative.

The oddly named "Ling? J" took the lead and withdrew all his retinue.

"Please come with me, the leader is in front, he has given orders, this meeting is top secret, even I must stop before the last one, please don't mind this."

"It's okay, time is precious, everything is about efficiency, we didn't come here in the first place," I nodded, and then activated the jīng God Connection, "Lilina, do you know what kind of person their leader is?" ”

Lilina shook her head: "I've seen it in the communicator, it's an old man, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes." ”

In the middle of the conversation, we have reached the deepest part of this somewhat dark building, and what appears in front of us is a large alloy mén with silver and white sè.

"The leader is behind this mén, and I'll be on standby outside." Insult? J stood on the side of the big mén and opened the passage for us.

Before this, I had already imagined what kind of person the leader of Roland Gale would be, according to Lilina, it was an old man who looked at least seventy or eighty years old, very jīng, like an old general, and I thought that when the big mén was opened, it would be an old gentleman who appeared in front of everyone, wearing a pen tǐng uniform, waiting for us behind a large desk, with the calmness of an old man and the humility and arrogance of the leader of Roland Gale in the face of the emperor, And around him, there should be stacks of thread-bound books, various versions of golden vase plums...... Anyway, it's such a bookish meaning.

However, I guessed wrong.

What appeared in front of us was a very bright silver-white sè rotunda, the whole body was cast by some kind of high-strength alloy, no light could be seen, but it was full of soft halos, in addition to the platform on the edge, the hall was like the ancient Roman Colosseum extending down the circular staircase, extending layer by layer, extending more than ten meters deep, until reaching the circular platform at its bottom, and the leader of Roland Gale was on that platform, and his line of sight was just level with the platform on the upper level of the hall, Able to look at us effortlessly.

One...... Huge heads.

You read that right, Roland Gale's leader is a huge, twenty-meter-tall head – of course, a jīng god with medium-length white hair and a thin white beard, and a stiff face like an old general.

"Hello, leaders of the Empire, it is a great honor to be able to talk to you face to face, this is absolutely something that is unique in this universe, I am the leader of Roland Gale, Roland Gale."

The huge head spoke, and the sound was like a bell, and the whole shape of this pit father's hall was a gathering microphone, and as soon as the old man below spoke, the updraft of the whole hall - fortunately, we opened the shield in time.

In addition, about the other party's name, I don't seriously complain about it as a courtesy.

"Well, I see," I said, clasping my ears hard, finally recovering from the shock of the huge head, "now I know what you can't do at the landing site to greet in person, you're such a giant." ”

"Giant...... No, I'm no longer human, and as you can see, this head is my whole body. ”

This time, I was stunned, and then deeply shocked by the wonder of evolution.

"You are surprised, Imperial Leader, very presumptuous, but I am even more surprised that you seem to have the same pattern of feelings as humans - please don't interpret this as a provocation, it's just my personal feelings."

My sister had a curious expression on her face, and at the same time lù let out a soft smile: "It seems that there are really a lot of things we don't know about each other, as you can see, the real Hiling Apostles are also creatures with feelings, those rebels are just a bunch of out-of-control drones, we'll talk about this later, now I'm just curious, you ...... Born like this? ”

I couldn't help but cover my face with my hand: My sister usually doesn't hide from others, but NV children have a gossip god, and this curiosity is really coming up, and no one can stop it.

...... named Roland Gale Old man, well, it's old man, I can't find any other way to describe the "human" leader in front of me, he didn't feel embarrassed or unhappy in the face of my sister's inquiry, just like an ordinary dignified elder, he just smiled very generously: "Whether you believe it or not, I've been thinking about it for three days and three nights since I learned that you were coming, but now I find that the jiāo flow with you doesn't seem to be as terrible as I thought at the beginning, sorry, I'm getting older, always a little over-talking...... As for how I look......"

The huge head in front of us did not hide the reason for his appearance, or rather, the reason why he became the honor he is now, once it is said, it also increases our sense of responsibility.

Everything, thanks to "our rebels".

As the Roland Gale official who was waiting at Mén's mouth said, in this cruel world, in order to keep their people alive, many leaders have given up a lot of things that are unimaginable in the eyes of ordinary people, Fina is a half-human, half-mechanical synthetic thinking machine, and the old man Roland Gale has used excellent biochemical technology and biomimetic technology to turn himself into a head that never rests, thinking ability and jīng power are infinitely powerful.

Before coming to this universe, Roland Gale was nothing more than a human, a young merchant group leader, who ambitiously led the family merchant group he created to engage in interstellar trade, but an unforeseen warp engine failure brought his merchant group to this strange and cruel world.

With unimaginable talent and hard work, Roland Gale survived in this most húnluàn heavenly region, creating the original consortium of powerful forces, a vast economic and military empire, using his astonishing acumen and military talent for long-term interests, Roland Gayle almost unified the entire Eastern Heavenly Region in middle age, which made him almost a miracle - even the shepherds noticed this growing power.

Then, disaster struck.

In an era of war hundreds of years ago, the Roland Gale consortium faced the invading army in the southern sky region and the local crazy expansion of the angels and the black fog pirate group at the same time, the war once entered a stalemate, maybe if everything went well, the victory was still the consortium, but at this time Roland Gale made a fatal mistake, a blind and impulsive military decision, that mistake was not explained in detail by the other party, but the huge head tells us that the mistake led to the almost complete destruction of the entire consortium, At one point, the Nantian District occupied almost one-third of the Consortium's territory, while the remaining two-thirds of the territory was ravaged by the Angel Pirates, the Black Mist Pirates, and the raiding Shepherd fleet.

Fortunately in the midst of misfortune, Roland Gale decisively abandoned the fallen frontier at the last moment, and did his best to drag the war into a stalemate within the Xiǎo range, and it was not until the "Shepherd" announced the beginning of the era of peace, and the consortium finally turned the corner.

The life-and-death crisis has Roland Gale questioning his decision-making abilities, but he realizes that there is no second possible leader in the consortium other than himself, and he is determined to make no mistakes again in order to keep the country in danger alive.

"This is the end result," the old man's head always wore a calm expression, and his voice was low and steady, "as you can see, an artificially created brain, a combination of machinery, biological tissue, a bionic neural network, a half-ton chip, and the non-stop energy technique we learned from the 'Emperor'...... Things, I'm no longer tired, I'm no longer impulsive, all emotions are set at a safe threshold between humans and machines, and any decision I make now will be the limit of what human intelligence and machine intelligence can make, the consortium has been standing ever since, we have driven out the colonists of the Southern Celestial District, and blocked the angel pirates who have the secret support of the 'Emperor**' from home, and now, I have made the decision to stand with you, which may make the consortium disappear in an instant. The rebels' fury, but I believe that it was worth it. ”

"You're admirable, really."

My sister was silent for a few seconds, and then bowed slightly to the huge old man's head in front of her, while Viska next to her snorted softly, but there was still some approval in her voice: "As a lower race, you ...... It's done well, and it's barely worth the title of warrior. ”

Even the old man Roland Gale, who had little expression, still had a very surprised and surprised expression after facing a slight bow from his sister and a soft compliment from Visk, obviously, he still retained the imaginary concept of the Imperial people "cold, ruthless, and harsh", well, in a way, this impression is not wrong.

I was amazed by the courage of the old man in front of me and his experience, but I was more concerned about how many such examples there are in this universe?

"Very much, if you are also interested in asking us about these humble races, then you will know everything, because these are not secrets at all, everyone in the universe knows everything, in the endless cycle of war, all the leaders of the power of the entire universe have been many times, we know very well about our friends and enemies, I know that the Emperor of the Kemitre Empire in the Southern Celestial Region of the Dao was once a Tydar, but now he is a huge quantum computer, Three uninterrupted fusion reactors provide him with energy, also in the Southern Celestial Zone, the Council of Twelve of the Violet Federation is twelve brains soaked in test tubes, they need to change the nutrient solution and part of the brain medullary tissue every ten years to stay awake, the king of the Holy Kingdom of the Northern Celestial Region fused himself with his wife who died on the front line, and used the mysterious technology he stole from the Empire to transform the two of them into a tireless half-energy creature bound in a strong magnetic field, The Pope of the Gusta Church in the Western Celestial District used biochemical technology to create a brain matrix for himself, while his own skull was empty, with only a bunch of bionic antennas, his papal crown was actually a piercing analgesic signal shè to prevent him from dying of his spinal cord due to a never-ending severe headache, and the NV King of the Gotak Free Kingdom was a half-human, half-mechanical assemblage whose biological parts could not survive on their own, so they were installed on a steel throne by their own subjects, Day and night as a calculator's horn...... There are too many, almost every kingdom that has survived to this day, their leaders are such things that are almost out of the biological category, and the purpose of doing so is basically the same, to make themselves no longer make mistakes, infinite jīng power, accurate judgment, efficiency, agility, fearlessness, every moment and every second as a perfect leader to lead their own kingdom, we have countless soldiers who shed blood and died on the front line, and hundreds of millions of subjects face the threat of death every day, but they still maintain a minimum of loyalty, because they know the Tao, How much their own leaders have given - it is no less than life. ”

"Yes, very heavy." Beyond that, I was speechless, and even my coarse nerves were shallow, and now they were quiet.

"But only in this way can we survive, the 'Emperor **' is too powerful for ordinary races, even the occasional drama nòng, it often requires us to fight with the strength of the whole country, we have to give up everything, in order to ensure that we will not give up our lives at the last moment."

The huge old man's head said flatly, and those deep eyes stared at us without a bō

"To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed right now." I shrugged my shoulders, and the mercury lamp immediately swirled around my neck: I forgot that this girl was still there.

"I'm sorry, I've tried my best to restrain my emotions," the huge head's face was a little nervous, but more relieved, "I know that you are different from them, and those words just now are just stating the facts, please don't get me wrong...... I'm not arrogant enough to bargain with the Empire, but I hope that my words will make you sympathize with us ordinary races, and perhaps the most important task for you is to exterminate the rebels, and it doesn't matter how much we sacrifice in the face of Imperial technology, but we just want to survive, even if we have little strength, and if we have to, the ants will resist - that's all. ”
