Chapter Seventy-Five: Embarking on the Journey (Two Chapters in One, One Today)
"It's getting started, brother. ”
"yes, it's about to begin. ”
Lisa and Shure, brother and sister, stood side by side on the bridge of the Jackdaw, watching the deep darkness outside the window, and Vivi, dressed in black uniform, always stood behind the two of them, like the most loyal guards.
Within the orderly space outside the window, nearly a thousand brown star spaceships are lined up in a dense concentrated formation, suspended in the rift space, silver-gray shells, uniform angular hulls, huge and hideous cannon barrels, and attack coils with energy circles flashing, if anyone else sees these brown star spaceships at this time, they will be surprised, obviously the appearance has hardly changed from before, but now it looks like it has caused a huge oppressive force.
There are very few life forms on these ships, but each ship is equipped with sufficient combat energy to the highest standards, the cabin is full of warplanes, the warehouse is full of physical ammunition, and hundreds of mechanized assembly lines are on standby, and hundreds of fighters or mechanical golems can walk off the production line and put into use every minute if needed.
A little further away, the new brown galaxy is in sight, as a nascent galaxy that has already had thirteen planets at some point, the environment of the new brown galaxy is extraordinarily stable, the thirteen stars revolve around the sun in an orderly manner, and the other ten planets appear to be in unexplored barrenness except for two functional planets and one habiting star that have been put into operation. However, if you turn on the energy perception and look closely, you will find that those planets do not seem to be pure natural appearance, and there are constantly strong energy streams pouring out of the center of the earth on the planet, swimming along the surface of the planet with a special law, flowing through the surface of the planet, and then returning to the depths of the center of the earth.
These energy streams are so powerful, each one far exceeds the power of the main cannon of the Brown Star Ship, if that energy breaks away from the constraints of the planet and shoots out of the galaxy, the destructive power caused is probably immeasurable, and these ten planets are like this, it seems that it is barren and inconspicuous, but under the barrenness, there are sharp fangs.
And if you look deeper into the galaxy, you will find that at the only star in the galaxy, the phantom of a temple is shrouded in the star, switching back and forth between the virtual and the real with the frequency of the flame beating on the surface of the star. The star's light was too strong to overshadow all other brilliance, but for some reason, there was always a faint red light falling from the sky, converging in the middle of the temple, and the glimmer of light came from nowhere, but no matter how hard the star's light tried, it could not hide this faint light.
At this time, Shur and Lisa were both dressed in the Dark Moon robes, and the holy scriptures were held in their left hands as usual, but today these two holy texts have something special, they are not paper at all, nor are they made of parchment, the darling of the mage, the composition of the holy texts is leather treated with the oldest process, and the two holy texts are equally old and old, full of the vicissitudes of time. Although it is so old on the outside, as if it could dissipate at any moment, the divine power that is so dense that it is almost substantial, does not lie, and this purest divine power unreservedly declares to all who see it that we are not ordinary holy texts, we are treasures given by the gods.
"Huh", the door of the bridge opened, and Delia, who was also dressed in holy robes, walked in, "Uncle, everything is ready." ”
"Huh?"
"There are 480 million survivors of the Brown Star Civilization, 1,987 city ships, three developed colonies, and a third-class galaxy, willing to do their best for the Dark Moon Temple, and willing to sacrifice everything for Lord Shuer. Delia drew her fingers in circles on her chest, and her tone was extremely serious, "Everything has been arranged, ready to fight." ”
"The gods will not forget your loyalty. Shuer nodded with satisfaction, "Then, stay on standby as originally planned, and don't let your guard down." ”
"Your will, Priest. Delia responded with a brown star salute, then replaced it with a temple-specific chest salute, and bowed out of the bridge, apparently to carry out the order.
"Whether Pavadiga will be reborn or will be destroyed under pressure is finally time to reveal. Seeing Delia leave, Shur sighed faintly, "This day is coming after all, tsk, Lisa, are you afraid?"
"Nervous, but not afraid. The girl smiled and raised her head, looked at the familiar face of her brother who she hadn't seen for a long time, and said gently, "When I started preparing half a year ago, I already knew that this day would definitely come, and I was mentally prepared for a long time. ”
"Heh......" Xiuer smiled, and before he knew it, half a year had passed, and time was really cruel. After Shuer left the goddess's kingdom half a year ago, he gave several orders in a row, so early the next morning, Lisa embarked on a journey back to the brown star, and she hadn't seen each other again in half a year. Not only Lisa, but all those close to him were arranged by Shul to leave his hometown and go to various worlds, while Shul himself, who had been left alone in Pavatiga, no longer seemed to think about maintaining Lisa's authority, but stood at the forefront of the times, standing under everyone's gaze, trying his best to complete the preparations for the ceremony as soon as possible.
This is also a helpless move, he is the focus of the dream, this Shure is powerless to change, maybe he can use all kinds of tricks to avoid the eyes of the observer Lord Kaeya, but no matter where he hides, it is impossible to hide the sight of the dream itself, this is determined by the rules of the dream, there is no room for change. As long as the focus of the dream is always focused on oneself and does not change in the short term, then as long as it is far away from oneself, it is equivalent to staying away from the sight of the dream, which is one of Shuer's countermeasures, as for whether it has an effect, it can only be tested by the results.
"It's right to be nervous, I'm nervous, but no matter how nervous I am, I have to face it. Shuer looked in the direction of the star and nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that you are very well prepared, and there is really no need to be afraid." ”
"Of course, I'm my brother's sister. Lisa tilted her head, and her smile could vaguely see the appearance of the little girl at the beginning, "For the sake of this world, for the sake of the goddess, for our church, my brother has done his best, how can I drag my brother back? ”
"Do you know what to do?"
"I don't know. Lisa shook her head of course, "Since it's inconvenient for my brother to tell me, then I'll just do it according to my own understanding, if my brother really needs me to do something, he will naturally let me know, hehe." ”
"Good, that's right. Shul opened his arms and hugged her thin body as Lisa did when she was a child, and after hugging her for a long time, he let go and patted the girl on the shoulder, "Take care of yourself, be careful." ”
"Well, come on, brother, I'm waiting for good news from my brother. ”
The siblings exchanged a tacit look, and Shure turned his gaze to the lieutenant who had always stood behind him. Wei is still the same, with an indifferent expression, a cold gaze, and a stereotypical style that is very in line with her identity as an artificial intelligence in the past, but once you get familiar with her, you will find that this metal woman with no body temperature has a hot heart, but she never lets people see it.
After staring at the metal adjutant for a long time, Shuer smiled and said, "Wei, why are you still here?"
"I'm your adjutantant, sir, and the adjutant's position is behind you, and I can only be here. ”
"Huh...... Adjutant...... At the end of the day, it's just a joke, forget about it. Shuer shook his head and sighed, "A few days ago, when I was communicating, Roland was still talking to me, your new body is still unstable, and it is almost time for maintenance, just take this opportunity, you go to maintain it once, lest Yulia know about it, and you should taunt me and say that I have squeezed you." ”
"Sir, you have personally promised that I will be your exclusive lieutenant until one party is no longer able to continue his travel duties. Wei's body was straight, and she said with a serious expression, "Are you going to break your promise to your subordinates, sir?"
"It's just a maintenance, it's not a broken promise. Shuer scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "It's just a vacation for you." ”
"Article 38 of the Coalition Regulations stipulates that during the performance of major missions, all statutory holidays shall be cancelled, and it is not allowed to take leave for private reasons, and violators shall be guilty of leaving the camp without permission. Wei unceremoniously objected, "Even if you are a commander, you are not allowed to violate the content of the Coalition Regulations before Article 50, and as an exclusive adjutant, I have an obligation to correct your misdeeds." ”
"I'm not talking to you. Shul said with a sinking face, "This is an order. ”
"I disobeyed, sir. ”
Unabashedly said it, Shuer found that he was simply asking for trouble. If Wei was still an artificial intelligence, she would never be able to disobey orders at will due to the limitations of the program, but since she became a real life, she has gotten rid of the limitations of instructions, and even disobedience is so reasonable.
"My chief is an idiot. ”
"Hey. ”
"And it's just backward primitive creatures. ”
"Hey, hey. ”
"He's always doing something boring and saying a lot of stupid things, but he's my commander and it's my duty to fight with him until the very end. Wei ignored Shuer's protest at all, and said loudly to herself, "Although I don't know his specific purpose, but in the past six months, he has indirectly ordered me to do a lot of preparation work, and now let me take a vacation, just because the preparation stage has ended, and I am about to start a formal battle, in order to avoid unpredictable dangers, I was deliberately transferred to the safest place." ”
"In addition to the responsible persons who must participate, such as Lisa and Delia, the other people around him, my commander obviously arranged it this way, but he forgot one thing, I am not an ordinary civilian, I am a soldier of the coalition army, and I am the exclusive adjutant of the commander, and as an adjutant, I left my commander behind and ran to a safe place to take refuge alone, which is the biggest shame for a soldier. ”
"And my commander has apparently forgotten another important thing, he's a fool (hey, you just scolded that), and he won't even drive a starship......"
"When will it become a measure of stupidity, Wei, your logic system is crying. ”
"Without me, he didn't even know how to do the most basic operations, and he didn't even know how to deal with the documents, so he could only secretly order me to read them for him, and on the surface, he had to pretend to be very skilled and poke around the screen, pretending to be very sophisticated. Wei glanced at Xiu'er, and ruthlessly pierced his superficial disguise, "Such a commander, if he left my assistance, he would definitely be lost in the void as soon as possible, in order to ensure that there would be no premature non-combat attrition, I can only disobey the orders and continue to stay in my post, only after the combat attrition, I can get rid of the stupid commander of the chief." ”
"Hey, Wei, don't you know that the adjutant who speaks ill of the commander in person will be dealt with by military law?" Shuer rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Moreover, you cursed me just now, you cursed me for being attrition in battle." ”
"Yes, sir, I'm glad you heard me so bluntly, which shows that your comprehension has improved. "Seriously striking at his chief, it is obvious that Shuer's behavior just now made Wei very dissatisfied, in the end, he has a real personality, Wei showed quite emotional, "And I think it is necessary to remind the chief, when the simulation ceremony was run in the past, you have personally said that if I did not help you calculate, just adjusting the rapidly changing parameters in the ritual would be enough to exhaust all your energy, and you would not have time to pay attention to other issues." ”
"As a mature warrior, in order to complete the task and achieve the established strategic goals, all personal feelings must give way to the mission, so in order to improve the success rate of the mission, I must always follow the commander to ensure that you will not cause mistakes in the mission in order to deal with the most basic data problems, or are you ready to give up the task because of personal feelings?"
"Okay, okay, you win. Xiuer interrupted Wei who was getting more and more energetic with a tangled expression, "Since you are so insistent, let's come together." ”
"Yes, sir. The heels were interlocked, and Wei Xing's movements were still so capable, I don't know if it was an illusion, and a smile flashed with extreme speed on the face that had been indifferent all year round. It must have been an illusion, because then a shrunken version of Vi, which was only the length of her index finger, floated out of her pocket and landed expertly on Shuer's shoulder.
"Wei, my brother will ask you. Lisa, who had been snickering, bit her lip lightly and admonished, "Try not to put my brother in danger." ”
"Yes, guaranteed to get the job done. ”
"Tsk, okay, it's time to go. Quickly grabbing a miniature version of Viyce into his pocket, Shul waved at Lisa, "Let's work together, we'll see you later." ”
The next moment, divine power surged, and Shur disappeared out of thin air from the bridge.
