Chapter 138: Pandora's Box

Agnes was a little anxious, but looking at Shen Xi's thoughtful expression, she was afraid that she would hinder his thinking. So he gently tugged Ruan An and asked in a low voice, "What can I do?"

Ruan An smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This kind of thing has to be decided by adults." As a servant of God, it is not appropriate for me to say anything now. As long as the adults make a decision, then I will carry it out unconditionally. ”

Ruan An said it easily, but in fact, he was also a little confused in his heart. The situation is not very rosy. Under the blockade of time and space, Shen Xi has no way to get in touch with other people in the temple of gods, which means that the current Gaia is like an island in the ocean, and there is no way to get any form of support.

On the other hand, the situation faced by Shen Xi was simply extremely bad, and when the space-time tunnel opened again, in addition to himself, many gods in the C173 world would also face a threat. Although fighting the Shadow Void is one of the duties of the gods, it would be a fool's dream to gather a battle line that can fight against the Shadow Void under such circumstances.

"Anyway, it's not my character to sit back and wait. Just when Ruan An was waiting for an answer in a little anxious, Shen Xi had already made a decision, "In front of the shadow void, no life can stay out of it. Even the Wendu people are no exception - I don't believe they have the technology to survive in the Shadows. ”

The centurion wondered, "What is the Shadow Void?"

Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It seems that before we win over the Wendu people to join our front, I still have to explain to them what a shadow void is." "Although the Wendu people are ambitious, after all, they have not come into contact with such a thing as the Shadow Void - the ordinary civilization that has fought with the Shadow Void has long been wiped out by that strange thing. How can there be an opportunity to summarize lessons and establish a corresponding knowledge system!

"I don't know what you're talking about, but if that kind of thing is dangerous enough to require even the Wendu people to be pulled in as help, then it must be difficult to deal with. The centurion thought for a moment and whispered, "Perhaps, you should talk directly to that computer." Those Wendu people floating in the sky can't do the things of the Lord, but the Federation Computer can. ”

"With space locked, I can't fly out tens of thousands of light-years and find the capital planet of the Wendu people in the vast universe. Shen Xi sighed, "Go talk to the federal computer, if I could, I'd like to unplug the power cord of the broken computer." ”

The centurion shook his head, "Just think about that kind of thing, I reckon it's basically an impossible task to unplug its power cord unless the Temple of the Gods comes out." For a long time, the Wendus have been carrying out the so-called mission of 'spreading the glory of the Federation'. They have installed a surveillance network of Federation computers everywhere in the universe they have set foot in, and the Fourth Fleet will surely have direct contact with Federation computers through this network. As long as you can get on the fleet, you might be able to talk directly to that computer. ”

Shen Xi frowned and thought for a while, this may be the most effective direct means now. After a long time, Shen Xi sighed and called out in his mind to his newly appointed Pope Wendu.

"Yusuf, I have something to talk to you about. ”

There is always a special place for the spiritual dialogue between the gods and the pope. Viscount Prescott on Noah can always find a quiet voice in a bright hall. Liu Ban was a little different, when he and Shen Xi were talking and exchanging, they had been sitting in the interrogation room at noon three years ago, and the two of them had been grinding for a day.

As the chief of staff of the Fourth Fleet of the Wendu Federation, Yusuf sat in a classroom every time he responded to Shen Xi's call.

There were blackboards, old-fashioned desks, the traditional high-light, refractive projectors, and a few tattered basketballs and some brooms and mops piled up in the corner at the back of the classroom. But outside the classroom, there is no accustomed scenery at all - outside the window glass, there is a deep sea of stars.

"My lord, your servant awaits to hear your teachings. Yusuf bowed his head deeply, and the pale blue Federation fleet uniform looked quite neat and shaky on him. The collar-like coat adds a touch of heroism to Yusuf's originally elegant atmosphere. It was inlaid with five dazzling gold stars, but it was not known what rank it represented.

"Even though you are my Pope, I recognize your loyalty. After being silent for a while, Shen Xi said in a low voice, "But in some things, even silence is a kind of lie." ”

Shen Xi's question was a little clueless, but Yusufu understood what Shen Xi meant. He hesitated for a moment and whispered, "My lord, I am also a soldier after all. ”

"You're still my pope. Shen Xi sighed, "When there is a conflict between the two positions, which position should take precedence?" Don't forget, hostility to gods and religion is the established policy of your entire federation. And now you're a true clergyman. ”

Yusuf looked at Shen Xi with some surprise, "What are you...... Are you threatening your own believers?"

"I've never been a good person. Shen Xi simply made it clear, "It was just an expedient measure to infiltrate the battleship to baptize you in the first place. But now, I ask you to carry out your duties as believers. I need your full assistance. ”

Yusufu glanced at Shen Xi with a complicated expression, "What do you want?"

"Let me talk directly to Federal Computer. Shen Xi's face was grim, "The world is facing annihilation, and that damn computer is the cause and culprit of all this." ”

"It can't be. Yusuf did not hesitate to reject Shen Xi's request, "It is impossible for me to agree to this request, not to mention that I have no corresponding authority at all." ”

Shen Xi looked at Yusuf and shook his head after a long time, "I said that being silent is also a lie. ”

Suddenly, there was a terrifying sound of wind in the classroom, and the tables and chairs that had been neatly arranged suddenly seemed to be attracted together as if they had a magnetic force. In that corner where the basketballs were stacked, a monster of postmodern ideas coalesced.

The monster reached out a large hand made of countless metal table legs and slapped it at Yusuf. With a slap, his entire right leg was slapped into a puddle of flesh.

"This is the first time I've seen divine punishment. The divine punishment of the Pope seems to be ...... It's hard enough. Shen Xi was silent for a while, then sighed, "You really plan to carry it like this?"

"I believe in gods, my lord. The pain hit, but Yusuf just lay on his back on the floor, staring at the pale green ceiling and the huge ceiling fan that was constantly spinning, "I believe that the gods have excellent vision, and I believe that surrendering my soul to the gods will bring me peace of mind and joy." ”

Shen Xi quietly listened to Yusuf's confession, and waved his hand to stop the monster from continuing to attack.

"But, before that, I was a military man. A soldier who has sworn to defend the rights of the Union with his life. Yusuf's eyes were calm, and they were full of power. "Like it or not, but in the face of theocracy and worldliness, my worldly identity is more important. ”

Shen Xi took out a cigarette from the drawer of the table on the podium, rolled it to his mouth and lit it a little rustily, and then silently puffed out a puff of smoke.

Yusuf continued, "This is my final answer, my lord. His face was full of determination, "If you need proof, please take my life." ”

"Idiot, idiot, brain-dead, waste!" Shen Xi slammed the lit cigarette butt into Yusuf's face, "What the fuck are you pretending to be a bullshit saint in front of the master!"

Shen Xi jumped like thunder, pointed at Yousufu who was lying on the ground and scolded, "You mentally retarded with shit in your head! Lao Tzu has already said that this world is facing a catastrophe! Do you know what the catastrophe is?" He stepped on the cigarette butt mercilessly, and also stepped on Yusuf's face by the way, "Just because of that bullshit computer in your federation, this universe is about to perish!"

Yusuf stubbornly closed his mouth and said nothing.

"Still pretending?" Shen Xi grabbed Yusuf's ear and smashed his head on Yusuf's forehead, "I'll let you see what kind of destruction scene it is!"

In the process of Shen Xi's acceptance of the transformation of divine power, there were countless knowledge that entered his mind along with the transformation. What Yusuf wants to show is just one of the countless shadow invasions that have occurred in the distant past.

It was a vibrant universe with tens of millions of independent civilizations living in a space about five trillion parsecs in diameter. With the development of the Temple of the Gods and those native civilizations, the universe is peaceful. Almost all civilizations are obsessed with exploration and discovery, multilateral exchanges are extraordinarily rich, and almost all issues can be discussed openly. Even just a casual look will make onlookers feel that this is an amazing and great era. Civilizations in the universe have even begun to prepare to explore trans-cosmic modes of transportation under the guidance of the Temple of the Gods.

However, this vibrant universe was destroyed within five years. Scientists who are too obsessed with exploring extraterrestrial space have opened Pandora's box, which is forbidden by the Temple of the Gods. A specimen of extraterrestrial matter containing highly active shadow void pollution has been transported to the very core of this universe. A newly hired researcher accidentally touched the specimen's protective restraint after a warm welcome reception.

The first second the restraint was opened, the infinite darkness and mad red stained the poor researcher's body. The human form collapsed and disintegrated in an instant under the highly active shadow void pollution, and he couldn't even exclaim, so he became the core substance of the world's destruction.

The fifth second after the restraint was untied, the sky of the planet where the specimen was stored underwent a drastic change in the atmosphere that could not be suppressed by the weather control facility. The air quickly turned into a highly toxic compound that no one had ever discovered, killing almost one-tenth of life on the planet.

A minute after the restraint was untied, a violent crustal movement unfolded, and the planet, which is the center of civilization exchange, tore itself into countless pieces in the violent core eruption. Then, driven by the earth's core, it became a huge bomb. Sprayed the earth's crust carrying the deadly infect. The flying crust was infected by the shadow void, and even had a serious lack of physical attributes. Some of them have lost their mass, while others have completely disappeared into an indescribable mass due to the loss of electric nuclear force.

An hour after the restraints were untied, the supreme gods and all the intern gods in that universe had been alerted and all of them were dispatched, but the pollution had erupted too badly, and the scope of the contamination had far exceeded the limits of what they could handle. The Temple of the Gods issued the highest level of vigilance for the area, and all the forces that could be mobilized in the surrounding universes were crammed into it.

But it was too late. Four hours after the restraint was untied, the cosmic infection rate of E-981 had exceeded 80%, and among the tens of millions of civilizations that had not yet been infected, only the last primitive tribe was still in the Paleolithic Age.

The world of E-981 has fallen.
