Chapter 70 The Fifth Team/Luo Rong Line?
In the flicker of the aperture, Emperor Fa had once again stood in front of the Iron Throne, his lips were sharp, his eyes were cold, his lips were tightly closed, he didn't say anything, just raised his fist high into the sky, and the next moment, the mountains roared like a tsunami of applause and cheers surrounded him.
"Those who dare to offend my king's prestige will fight when they come, and they will win if they fight!" When the cheers gradually subsided, Difa said lightly.
The cheers mingled again, and I even saw many women in the crowd looking at Emperor Fa with a kind of obsession and madness, as if everyone had forgotten at this moment that Emperor Fa was a big devil who killed people without blinking an eye and was not a hero who saved the world.
At that moment, Emperor Fa, who stood proudly in front of the throne, was the only king in this world!
Because the appearance of Kui Long was quickly repelled by the emperor, the "founding ceremony" of the emperor went very smoothly, and the cheers of the people changed from reluctance and stiffness at the beginning to a little heartfelt reverence and longing at the end.
After the founding ceremony, Emperor Fa directly handed over a list to the resurrected Sky City Lord Eszolen to make arrangements. After that, the emperor took me directly back to his private dormitory, and began to completely seal the door of the main hall, forbidding anyone to enter.
I don't know what Emperor Fa wants to do, but my heart hasn't recovered from the shocking scene of Emperor Fa bombarding the Flying Dragon at the founding ceremony.
The moment he entered the main hall and closed the door, Difa's body suddenly staggered, and then barely stood still.
I was taken aback, and walked forward quickly, and Defa put his arm directly on my shoulder, and then said to me in a somewhat weak tone:
"Lift me to the throne, little Rollo."
"Difa, what's wrong with you, you?!" Frightened, I ran forward and hugged Difa, a slightly reluctant smile on the corner of Difa's mouth.
"It's nothing, just a little tired......" Emperor Fa stretched out his hand, rubbed his eyebrows, and said, "This king...... I haven't closed my eyes for four days. I want to take a break. β
Only then did I remember that indeed, because Emperor Fa had been in high-intensity battles and invasions for the past four days, he had not had a minute of rest at all, and a normal person would have been unable to stand it for a long time, let alone him.
I helped Emperor Fa to sit on the throne in the center of the main hall, Emperor Fa bent his back slightly, one hand held his forehead, his eyes were closed, and he didn't know whether he was asleep or awake.
"Emperor, Emperor...... Are you okay? I asked, looking at Tefa worriedly.
Difa shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"This is the most glorious moment of this king's life, what can this king do? Let me take a break......"
However, Difa's eyes had only been closed for less than five minutes, but he suddenly opened them again and said:
"Hell, do you have to do it again in fifty minutes...... What an underwhelming guy. β
I didn't know what Tefa was talking about, but I soon understood what Tefa meant. Because just fifty minutes later, Kui Long actually rushed towards the sky again!
This time, of course, Tefa stepped in again and knocked it away.
But this dragon is extremely clingy, and after being knocked away twice by the emperor, it actually rushed over again in less than an hour!
After being knocked away by Emperor Fa seven times in a row, Kui Long finally stopped appearing. But instead of it, it was the giant eagle from the world of amorous customs!
"Imperial ...... Come out, come out, come on......" The sound of the monster with its own ghost sound effect once again covered our Sky City, and in order to deal with this giant eagle, the emperor who had not closed his eyes had to open his eyes again and go out to meet it in person.
But......
This is just the beginning.
Because in the next day, every time between fifteen minutes and fifty minutes, a monster will come to harass our Sky City, although they can't kill the emperor at all, but the emperor can't kill them, and can only force them back temporarily.
But the situation began to deteriorate rapidly......
Because, Difa hasn't slept for five days.
At that moment, I finally understood the true purpose of the monsters that had come to attack the Emperor.
They...... I want to die alive with the Eye of Wittgenstein!
I can think of this level, and of course Difa will not be unexpected.
I looked at Emperor Fa with some panic and said:
"That'...... Then give the Eye of Wittgenstein to the others, so that they can use the Eye of Wittgenstein to defend against other worlds while you rest......"
Difa wiped his slightly pale face and said:
"Others?"
I nodded and said:
"With so many people under your command now, there must be someone who can use the Eye of Wittgenstein. And, as long as you use the rules of the game, they won't steal your Eye of Wittgenstein, will they......? β
"There's a fundamental contradiction, little Rollo." Tefa laughed, "Do you think that those who really would rather die than give in will submit to this king?" Those who submit to this king are greedy for life and fear death, do you think that kind of person is qualified to use the Eye of Wittgenstein and exert the ability of simulation? β
I was stunned by Difa's rhetorical question. Yes, to be able to use the simulation ability of Wittgenstein's Eye to fight against other worlds, it is necessary for the user to have the courage and conviction to never be afraid of death, but if there is really that kind of person in this world who is not afraid of death, how can he submit to the feet of the emperor now?
"But, but as long as you use the rules of the game, you can also force people to commit suicide, so you can also have the ability to not be afraid of death......
"Wrong." Tefa shook his head, then said, "The Eye of Wittgenstein protects the user and helps those who possess it find the future in which he lives. The rules of the game can force people to commit suicide, but if they are used, it is very likely that the Eyes of Wittgenstein will find a future to break the rules of the game, or a future that will break away from the king's control over him. The rules of the game are a kind of mandatory rules that force people to behave in a way that governs the future that Wittgenstein's eyes can see, as well as the layout of the future. For example, the rules of the game limit the use of laser cannons, and if you want to shoot down a ship, you must use a laser cannon, in which case the future of using laser cannons cannot be entered, and the ships in the sky cannot be shot down. This is an extremely strong restriction. β
Looking at the thick self-deprecation on Difa's face, I said in trepidation:
"But...... At least, at least it is possible to let Sky Castle escape, right? Although it is not possible to simulate and lay out the Eye of Wittgenstein in the eyes of others like you do, it ...... At least you can know the danger in advance and escape to a safe place, right? β
"It's so naΓ―ve...... "Emperor Fa suddenly laughed, "Little Luoluo, you don't think that the purpose of those monsters that attacked this king's sky city was just to kill this king and destroy the sky city, did you?" β
I was stunned and speechless.
Difa smiled:
"Attacking the king's castle in the sky with monsters is just to attract the king's attention. Their purpose was to make sure that the king was still awake. If the king is asleep and can't use the simulation ability, then our castle in the sky will be able to escape. But...... And what about armies in other worlds? What about the corps, production bases, mining areas, resource transport units on the ground? Those settings and personnel on the ground will be the first to be raided. While Castle in the Sky can escape, there are some things that can't. Once this king sleeps, the defeated rivers and mountains will soon be eaten back by those monsters. β
Difa's words made me gasp, which I really didn't imagine. But it's true that without the use of simulation, all the Eye of Wittgenstein can do is help the user find a way to survive in the next hour, and the Eye of Wittgenstein doesn't care if you're dead or alive in two hours. Therefore, even if the castle in the sky escapes, other armies or weapons depots on the ground that have nothing to do with the user's life may die.
I said a little depressedly:
"That'...... Can we hide somewhere the other monsters can't find it, rest for a while, and then come out when the time is up? I wonder why those monsters were able to find the location of our Sky City so easily. Although our city in the sky is conspicuous, it ...... On Earth, it's still relatively small, right? How did they manage to lock our position so easily? β
Tefa smiled, then raised his head and said:
"It's simple. Because this king has driven the spaceship of the electronic world to the far side of the moon, in order to be able to launch a laser attack on the spaceship at the first time when the spaceship of the electronic world appears even when the king is asleep, this king has kept the sky city between the moon and the earth, so the other worlds want to search for our sky city, the range is much smaller. If the city in the sky leaves this area, then once the king falls asleep, the electronic world can leave the moon, and you may not be able to destroy their ship in the first place. β
"It can be said that this king did use Sky City to restrict the spaceships of the electronic world and maintain their momentum, but on the other hand, because of this, Sky City's movement was also restricted and he could not move freely. It's a double-edged sword. β
I stared blankly at Difa, my mind was in a mess, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
"Harassing this king with such intermittent attacks is stupid, but it's a difficult strategy." Difa said coldly.
Emperor Fa analyzed a lot, and it was really remarkable that he was able to maintain such a clear mind in such a situation of extreme physical and mental exhaustion.
Emperor Fa looked at me seriously and sternly, and said:
"Although the Eye of Wittgenstein will be greatly weakened without this king, it will at least be able to hold the last camp...... So, during the rest of the King, little Rollo, it is up to you to use it. β
"I ...... I?! "I looked at Emperor Fa in astonishment, and my heart panicked all of a sudden." No, no, I ......."
"If it doesn't work, it has to work!" Difa's voice suddenly raised several times, "Little Luo Luo, you have to understand, this is war. β
I swallowed hard, my hands began to tremble violently, my whole body began to feel uneasy, and even my head was slightly dizzy, and I felt that the whole world was about to come to an end.
Emperor Fa sighed lightly, and then a faint smile curled up at the corner of his mouth:
"I believe in you, little Rollo. You are among all the people whom this king has ever met...... The only one who, no matter what the circumstances, can follow the king without leaving an inch......"
After a pause, Difa seemed to have thought of some additional situation, so he added softly:
"Basically...... That's right. β
My cheeks burned for a while when Emperor Fa's words spoke, and in the next second, Emperor suddenly stood up from his throne and strode towards the outside of the main hall. I didn't know what Tefa was going to do, but the next moment, I understood.
Because in the next moment, there was a rumbling sound above my head.
"Haha, is Tefa here? I, Hu Hansan, are back again, come out and die! β
A few seconds later.
"Wow! β¦β¦ Damn, I'll be back again, Emperor! β
And for the next few hours, this continued.
"I'm back with Difa, hehe."
"It hurts...... I'll be back! β
"Haha, it looks like I said it, I'll be back, I'm here again, Difa, hehehe......"
"I'll be back! You wait...... Ahh β
"I'm back! Difa, come out and show up, laser surgery to treat the old lady's myopia! β
"Ah......hh I'll be back! β
"The emperor is coming out, and this queen is coming to cure her eyes again! Lula Lula Lula~~"
β¦β¦
The monsters of the amorous world harass the emperor seemingly endlessly, and there is never an end in sight. And what worries me is that with the harassment of monsters in the amorous world again and again, Difa's physical and mental condition is rapidly declining. But Emperor Fa can't show this weakness, because Emperor Fa's counterattack was so resolute and decisive before, if his counterattack suddenly begins to weaken, it already shows that the other party's plan has had an effect to some extent, which will give the other party a message feedback.
So no matter how tired his mind and body were, Difa had to hold on, and still had to give those monsters a little color again and again. Difa's original purpose was to create the illusion that he could never need to sleep and fight back, so as to force the other party to give up first, but to Difa's disappointment, the other party seemed to recognize the dead reason that Difa needed to rest, and kept coming to harass, and the time of harassment became more and more intensive and uncertain, sometimes it may be five minutes apart to change two monsters, sometimes it may be an hour or more than a few minutes, most of the time it is ten minutes to forty or fifty minutes, Even if Emperor Fa sometimes wants to take a break between sneak attacks, he has just fallen asleep and has to wake up to fight monsters again within a few minutes. The endless harassment tormented Difa's nerves, and after another day and a night of persistence, Difa's condition, which had not slept for five consecutive days, finally began to deteriorate.
It's been the tenth day, and in the evening of this day, Difa dragged his tired body back to the main hall, I saw that Difa's face was pale, although his back was still tall, but his eyes revealed deep tiredness, I saw Difa's body shaking, his eyes trembling unnaturally, and his eyelashes trembling, he seemed to close his eyes at any time and fall.
But he still walked to his throne with my support, and the next moment he sat on the throne, he suddenly tilted his head, and his whole body collapsed, and he actually fainted!
I was startled, hurriedly stepped forward and shook Difa's body, and said anxiously:
"Emperor? Tefa!? Wake up, Emperor! β
Under my shaking, Tefa finally woke up leisurely, and I saw that his eyes were extremely dim, almost like a dead man. I was so distressed that I almost didn't cry.
Defa grabbed my arm, and with a burst of force, he barely sat up straight, and then said in a hoarse voice that seemed to be dying of thirst:
"This king is fine...... Ben Wang ...... Still...... It's still holding up. Little Rollo, go and prepare the army...... This king, I want those stupid monsters to understand the power of this king......"
Listening to Tifa's hoarse voice, I quickly shook my head violently and said:
"No! Your physical condition is terrible, if you don't sleep, you, you will collapse! You have to sleep now! β
The force of Difa's hand on my shoulder was like a steel needle piercing the flesh of my shoulder, and the pain was so painful that I almost burst into tears.
Difa accentuated his tone, looked at me sternly, and said:
"This king has his own plans...... This king said, put on your humanoid mobile platform, gather the army, and go out with this king again, do you hear!? β
"But ......"
"Go!" Emperor Fa said in a fierce voice.
"......" I looked at the emperor worriedly, but there was nothing I could do. At Tefa's insistence, I had no choice but to convey Tefa's order, and at the same time, I put on my Gundam again and began to prepare for another expedition.
This time, Tefa took most of his robot guards with him on his expedition.
And after the robot army was assembled, Difa, who had already seen black circles in both eyes, raised his arms and shouted, and teleported to the game world again.
When the aperture opened, a huge black hole suddenly appeared in front of us, and at this moment, a fire giant covered in fire was guarding in front of this black hole, and the flame giant was surprised to see the robot legion that Emperor suddenly led the team to appear.
And the emperor's law was floating in the air, laughing, and said:
"Hahaha, useless woman, do you think your frivolous harassment will be useful to this king? How long will your boot-tickling attacks last!? Shoot this king! β
Under the order of the emperor, a steady stream of cannonballs, missiles, and lasers rushed towards the head of the flame giant, and the flame giant's face suddenly exploded into a brilliant firework, she wailed, covered her face with both hands, and staggered back, and then I saw the body of the flame giant flashing in place three times, which seemed to be a signal, after the body of the flame giant flickered several times, the black hole next to the flame giant suddenly became larger, and the flame giant himself also spread out a black hole, soon, The Flame Giant and the original small black hole merge into one, and the Flame Giant also enters the protection range of the black hole.
In the face of the flame giant that entered the black hole, Emperor Fa did nothing, just floated in place and waited. Sure enough, after about an hour and a half, the black hole opened again, and the flame giant sneaked out again. The long-awaited Emperor immediately ordered us to fire again, causing the Flame Giant to quickly shrink back in fright.
This went on five times, and then nearly nine hours later. This time, the Flame Giant finally cowered in the black hole for two hours and did not dare to come out again.
And looking at the pitch-black black hole, I finally breathed a long sigh of relief, this time, the black hole was closed for longer than any previous time, which showed that the active attack of the emperor still had a certain effect.
"Did you succeed?" Looking at the black hole that had been closed and no more monsters came out, I asked cautiously.
"Like...... It worked. Emperor said in a stiff tone. I turned my head happily to look at Tefa floating in the air, hoping to see a hint of triumphant joy on his face. But this time, all I saw on Difa's face was solemnity and weakness.
Without any nonsense, Emperor Fa took us back to Sky City, and then he returned to his main hall as soon as possible. I feel that Difa's physical condition is almost to the limit, and ordinary people will be on the verge of collapse if they don't sleep for more than three days, but Difa relies on his strong willpower to support nearly twice as much time, and in these nearly six days, he spends every day in high-intensity calculations and battles, and ordinary people can't support this kind of consumption at all.
At the moment when the door of the main hall closed, Difa's body suddenly fell forward, and the whole person fell to the ground!
I was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to shake him.
"Emperor?! Tefa!? Wake up! β
But this time, no matter how much I shook, Tefa didn't wake up.
After lying down for thirty seconds, Emperor Fa slowly opened his eyes, he barely opened them, looked at me, and said:
"What's it called...... The king is still awake. Alive. β
Defa slowly sat up on the ground, and looked at me with a very deep look, and then, suddenly, he stuck his palm on his left eye, and pulled his fingers together so hard that he immediately gouged out the Eye of Wittgenstein from his eye. Defa's golden bangs obscured his eye, which had lost the Eye of Wittgenstein. Defa handed me the Eye of Wittgenstein in his hand and said:
"Little Rollo, while the king sleeps, the Eye of Wittgenstein will be handed over to you for the time being...... I don't want you to lead your army into a good battle, but at least you have to keep the castle in the sky for you...... Keep this part of our base camp. β
Looking at the Wittgenstein Eye handed to me by Difa, my whole person was stunned, and my heart was also heavy, and even, I shook my hand again and again, took two steps back, looked at Difa, and said:
"No, Difa...... I...... You know what I'm capable of, and I can't command it...... I don't have that ability...... I can't do anything...... If you give it to me, you're likely to fail......"
"Take it!" Difa said in an aggravated tone. "If anything, wake up the king...... At least give me three hours of rest, do you hear me? β
Looking at Difa's extremely serious expression, my heart was pounding.
"Why don't you sleep during the monster attacks......" I asked curiously, "Tefa, you can actually sleep between the monster attacks......
"Fool," said Tefa with a dumb smile, "don't you understand such a simple truth?" There is a default condition for the use of Wittgenstein's Eye, which is that you are not asleep when you see the future. If you want to see the future in 40 minutes, you have to make sure that you are awake after 40 minutes. In other words, Wittgenstein's Eye cannot predict the future when you are asleep. You want to let the king know in advance that a monster will attack in forty minutes, and then seize the forty minutes to sleep. The idea is good, but in fact...... Forty minutes later, you're sleeping. In this way, the two futures are fundamentally contradictory. That is to say, once you choose the future of the future in the sleep, you will not be able to predict the attack of the monster at all, once you choose to predict the monster, then it means that the future of you must be awake, observing the future of the monster coming to attack. You have to make sure that your observation is a continuous line of consciousness, otherwise, your future when you fall asleep will be dark, exactly the same as if you didn't know it, you know? β
"This ...... This means ......"
That is to say, the Eye of Wittgenstein is in fact unable to distinguish between the sleeping you and the dead you. For Wittgenstein's Eye, death is the same as falling asleep, both are interruptions of consciousness in the future, and the window of the future in that state is all dark, non-existent, and therefore ...... If you're asleep, there's no guarantee that the Eye of Wittgenstein will save you without continuous dreaming, you know? Difa's eyes became sharp and serious.
I nodded heavily, sweating profusely as I looked at Difa. Although Tefa's explanation was a bit complicated and tongue-twisting, I still roughly understood the meaning of his words.
"I ...... I get it. I see......" I whispered, and then gently and carefully took the Eye of Wittgenstein that Defa had handed me. The Wittgenstein Eye is not so mechanical, in fact, it is combined with biotechnology, so it can be perfectly integrated with the human visual nerve.
Tefa gave me a determined, sharp look, and then I saw a flash of worry on his face. After that, Emperor Fa retreated to his throne, his body lay on it, and with a slight curl, the black cloak wrapped his body, and in less than a few seconds, Emperor Fa's body stopped moving, and it was obvious that he had fallen into a deep sleep. I carefully held the Wittgenstein Eye in my hand, and it felt like I was holding a hot potato.
No matter what, during the time when Emperor Fa is asleep, I have to try my best to defend the Sky City and the country that Emperor Fa has defeated! I can't let Tefa down, and I certainly can't let myself down!
Of course...... I also hope that in the next three hours, other worlds will not come to attack. At least let Difa rest for three hours first, even if he wakes up, he will be able to recover some mental and physical strength, and at that time, Difa, fighting for a little longer, and then fighting for more rest time, is not a problem.
I felt the wet sweat in the palms of my hands, and the gentle Wittgenstein Eye was as heavy as Mount Tai in my hands.
I gently picked up the Wittgenstein Eye and placed it in front of me like a telescope. But through the lenses of this mechanical eye, for a moment, I couldn't see anything, as if it were no different from a normal fake telescope.
Every time I used the Eye of Wittgenstein to see the future, it was when my life was threatened, and the first time I used it in a submarine was to avoid the soldiers shooting me, and after that, I basically didn't use the Eye of Wittgenstein. This eye, when my life is not threatened, does not passively perform the function of choosing the future that allows me to escape, but is exactly the same as a normal fake eyeball.
I waited in the main hall of the Emperor with great anxiety, and the time was passing by minute by minute, and I was silently counting the time in my heart. I felt my whole body shiver slightly, and my hands were cold.
No matter what, the next three hours must be safe......
No matter what, for the next three hours, I must hold on, whether it is the monsters of the amorous world, or the zombies of the zombie world, the last one will not come to the sky city, I will hold on until the emperor wakes up in three hours......
I clutched the Wittgenstein Eye and prayed, begging for Defa to wake up sooner, or for the rest of the world not to come.
Soon, an hour passed, but I became more nervous and nervous, because the monsters of other worlds had not been silent for so long in the previous attack. What the hell are they doing now? Are they planning a larger attack?
My brain was racing at high speed, trying to make myself think more like a smart person, to take into account the worst-case scenario, so that my defenses would have a better chance of winning. Before falling asleep, Emperor Fa had already done the best defense measures that Sky City could do, and now I basically don't have to do anything, and if I do more, it may disrupt the layout arranged by Emperor Fa......
As I stared at my watch and my brain raced, a terrifying sound covered the sky again.
"Hahaha, is Defa there? I'm coming to you again to get your eyes cured! But I have a small question this time, can you use a laser to blind my eyes when I close them? β
Hearing this rumble coming from above my head made me feel goosebumps all over my body. I was terrified, and in a panic, I grabbed the Wittgenstein Eye in my hand and put it in front of my eyes, as if I were wearing an eyepatch to make the Wittgenstein Eye fit my eyeball.
In an instant, the whole world went dark. I felt my whole being sucked into Wittgenstein's Eye, and the whole picture of the world changed dramatically.
When I opened my eyes again, I saw countless windows floating in front of me, each with a different scene changing, as if I had opened the manhole cover to look at the reflection at the bottom of the well.
I felt like I was floating in gravityless space, and there were countless futures that I could choose from, many of which had some similarities, but also many differences.
In one of the worlds, I saw me push open the door of the main hall and use my apsarium to flash in front of the laser turret that Tefa had once used, firing the cannon into the eyes of the giant bug-like monster that had come as a bug. Although the monster kept saying that it had closed its eyes, it was clearly lying to me, but it still opened its eyes and looked down on our sky city.
In other futures, I chose to gather the other non-starting team members and let them rush back immediately, and then I opened the aperture and teleported the Sky City to other places. And the city in the sky can teleport almost infinitely, just in the beauty world, I can teleport countless places, as for the other worlds, although I can't see it, but the mechanical world is absolutely okay.
In addition to this, I also saw more of the future where I could survive, and that was if I directly betrayed the emperor, or surrendered to the monsters of the amorous world. In addition to this, in some futures, I abandoned the Emperor and the Sky City, and chose to flee alone. On top of that, I can also use the method of intimidating the monster and tricking her into telling her that her friends are dying now to get her to go back. But once she used this method, she would rush back in less than twenty minutes to attack again, so the plan would be useless in the long run. Of course, I can also choose to fight, like Difa to force her back with momentum, but in the future I see, I use weapons to fight monsters, just like when Difa played monsters to let her know how powerful I am, but with my ability, I will vomit and diarrhea after flipping in the air for a few minutes, dizzy, and it will be very embarrassing after a long time, and once I do that, it is estimated that I will fall asleep in less than forty minutes, and sleep more than Difa, this plan is not advisable.
My purpose is to help Emperor Fa gain more time to rest, and at the same time, I also try to keep the country and connections that Emperor Fa has built. So let me go out to fight in person, this is definitely not going to work, it will only make me tired, shorten the time for Emperor Fa to rest, and if I and Emperor Fa both sleep, it will be a big problem.
It's good to scare off the monsters with lasers, but that will expose me directly to the monsters, and they will know that the emperor is gone, and now that I am replacing the emperor, it will only make them think that their plan has succeeded. So with all the possibilities I see, my best bet is to open the aperture and make our Sky City jump to the Arctic at the first opportunity.
In the Arctic, I can guarantee that the monsters won't attack again for at least an hour. Compared to other futures, in the Arctic, I have been able to support it for the longest time.
Seeing this future, floating in a quiet dark space with no time, I decisively teleported to the future that escaped with the aperture.
Just as my body floated in front of that future window, I decisively jumped in!
The next moment, as if I had suddenly woken up from a dream, when the space around me suddenly brightened as if the curtain had been lifted on the stage, I found myself standing in the square, and beside me, a small group of robots floating, and at the same time, I noticed that the sky above me had changed. Originally, the area where our Sky City was located was still close to daylight, but now, above me, there was a brilliant starry sky. At the same time, the temperature around me dropped so much that I was shivering. Obviously, I've come to the Arctic.
