Chapter 36: Space Distortion

The talks between the two sides went very well, and the empire and the world government reached a series of matters for the establishment of diplomatic relations.

Especially with regard to the use of the World Passage and the phenomenon of civilian misconduct, this is what Heaton attaches more importance to.

Each of the two sides delineates a number of spatial passages to determine the landing point, and then the World Government asks the Navy to establish a World Government Reception Office at the Space Landing Point, and similarly, the Empire also establishes the Imperial Reception Office at various space landing points within the territory.

People from both realms are allowed to visit another world through the space passage, and at the same time, some people who have strayed into the unknown space passage can contact the Navy or the Security Department.

Allowing the movement of goods, the Empire's Chamber of Commerce can travel to the Pirate World to sell goods, and the Chamber of Commerce is protected by the Empire and the World Government, and vice versa.

The meeting only reached two matters for the Tourism Chamber of Commerce, and a series of matters for contact between the two worlds, and Mora and other imperial envoys left Marijoya safely and returned to the empire.

At this point, the World Government and the Empire each began to arrange their own affairs.

In the early days, except for the official arrangement, naturally no one dared to go to another unknown world to satisfy their curiosity.

The World Government intends to arrange for the spy CP to go to the empire through various means to investigate the information and then return safely.

The people of the pirate world have also gradually come into contact with the goods and technology of another world.

Gradually, people from the two realms began to circulate, because of the increase in space passages, whether it was the four seas or the great shipping routes, there were space passages for people to cross.

Before the residents of the empire go to another world, the security department will prepare some security matters and precautions in advance for people to understand and learn.

For example, the embassy of the empire in the pirate world, the location of the naval branches in various seas, what to do if you encounter pirates, and so on.

Outsiders who come to the Empire will also receive travel guides and precautions from the Empire.

Since the space passage is controlled by the world government, criminals like pirates are naturally not allowed to pass through, and all those with a reward on the wanted warrant are not allowed to pass.

These bounties are also entered into the security system of the Imperial Garrison Department, if a powerful pirate forcibly breaks through the naval garrison, through the space passage, the Empire will quickly dispatch the special operations team of the City Garrison Department, the Jinyi Guard and the garrison army to quickly wipe them out.

The next day, the photo of the pirate's head will be sent around the world through the news.

In the early days, there were always pretentious pirates who wanted to test the strength of the empire, but the results were without exception.

From tens of millions to hundreds of millions of pirates, the empire interprets the majesty of the empire, the cityscape of the empire, and the way of life of the people with strength and order, and it has also spread to the eyes of the people in the pirate world through their respective channels.

There is no oppression from those in power, there is no pirate overlife, and people live and work in peace, which is a very different way of life from the world of pirates!

This is what Heaton is all about, the convergence of the world is not the invasion of the world, and the enemies of the empire are only the people of the world and not the people of the whole world.

Just as parents always like to compare their neighbor's children with their own, the empire understands people's hearts better than the world government.

The empire just presents its own beautiful life in front of the people of the pirate world, and uses public opinion to guide the people's hearts, but does not interfere in change.

The rule of the world government has relied on forceful means to suppress all rebellions since ancient times, and has never considered the scene of the world's enemies, which may be the secret hidden by the world government to give it confidence, but excessive self-confidence means conceit, and often does not end well.

Even, when the world government saw the various methods of the empire, it still didn't care much, and focused more on finding out the military strength of the empire and preparing for the war that followed.

Naturally, in a world where individual force is paramount, the will of the people and the will of the individual are indeed nothing, and the purpose of Heaton's move is only to prepare for a smoother reign in the future.

"Your Majesty, a total of thirty spatial passages have been opened in the empire, and thirteen in Ailanka have been initially stabilized, and almost no pirates have forcibly broken into the spatial passages. The spatial passages between the Southern Isles and the Far North are also increasing, and at your orders, they are temporarily put on hold. ”

These spatial passages reported by Gai Yin are all new spatial passages that have continued to grow in the past few years, and their landing points have covered the entire Pirate World.

Space passages like this are all ordinary islands in the Pirate World, and large islands like Alabastan or space passages with strategic locations will naturally not be used exclusively by tourist chambers of commerce and will be controlled by the garrisons of various health centers.

"The two places are sparsely populated, just pay more attention, and it is unrealistic to want to fully control all the spatial passages."

"Jin Yiwei has caught a lot of spies of the world government, how to deal with it?"

Gai Yin asked again, according to the results of the talks, naturally this situation will not be allowed.

"Just follow the method of Jinyiwei!"

Heaton glanced at the list in his hand and said in a deep voice.

CP disguised as a tourist businessman, and when he was caught, he could only blame his lack of ability, and he didn't have the ability to catch spies.

The main reason is that these spies can't find out any secrets, and the garrison of the guard post is heavily guarded, so there will be no chance to investigate at all, and these CPs will bring back some security department distribution, equipment, and combat power level at most.

But these alone have already exceeded the average level of the pirate world, and even if some fish slip through the net and bring back the news, it can also have some deterrent effect.

Moreover, the casualty rate of the Jinyi guards sent to the pirate world is also very high, and they will not only face the investigation of the world government, but also face the risk of their own crises on the sea.

"Recently, many people from other worlds who have come to the empire have been asking the locals whether the empire has an immigration policy, because the empire has no relevant regulations for the time being, and there is no way to give a definite reply."

Heaton nodded: "Let's put this matter down first, what is the situation of the sea now?" ”

It's not surprising that people in the world of pirates want to emigrate, people always yearn for good things, and the empire is undoubtedly good for people in the world of pirates.

Now those who can travel to the other world through the space channel are all people who live a worry-free life and have small assets in the pirate world.

Such people often yearn for a peaceful life and think about their own future.

"It's very chaotic, because Fish-Man Island is closed to human traffic, and the pirates have piled up great shipping routes, and some have even returned to the four seas from the great shipping routes, so the world government ordered a severe crackdown on pirates, and the navy is understaffed and overstretched, and even abandoned the two naval branches of the New World and returned to the first half of the defense.

A powerful group of pirates called the Red-Haired Pirates has appeared in the New World, killing all sides in the New World, and it is estimated that they will soon encounter the three major pirates entrenched in the New World.

Don Quixote occupied Dressrosa, relied on the technology provided by the empire, established a large number of weapons factories, sold arms to the Beast Pirates and the Revolutionary Army, and at the same time acted as an agent for the Beast Pirates' Hailou Stone business, and reached a cooperation with the world government, and vaguely, Don Quixote became the leader of the underground forces.

The revolutionary army grew rapidly, rebelling against many kingdoms, and even some of the member states were among them.

According to the reports of the Jinyi Guards and the Jinyi Guards of the Big Mom Pirates who were lurking in the Hundred Beast Pirates, these two forces were very interested in the Empire, but out of caution, they did not act rashly. ”

Gai Yin paused and continued.

"Fish-Man Island is closed to the country, led by the Sun Pirates, and began to take the initiative to go ashore to attack humans, led by Chambord, battles occur every day, the navy arrests the stranded pirates, the fishmen attack the pirate slave traders, the navy captures the fishmen...

Each side suffered casualties, and the navy as a whole had the upper hand, but Chambord was completely unable to provide peaceful life for the locals.

The Revolutionary Army attempted to make contact with the Fishmen, but failed. ”

"The Sand Crocodile has been defeated by General Brand and secretly transferred to the Empire, but Alabastan is still in chaos, and the World Government has even begun to send additional navies to the island."

"It seems that the world government can also see the importance of Alabastan!"

"Your Majesty, one more thing, there have been some changes in the first few spatial passages."

"Change?"

Gai Yin brought up the latest photo taken by the research institute and appeared on the light screen of his desk.

The first is the landing point outside the northwest garrison, and the other end is the space channel located on Wilt Island in the North Sea, which is now one of the few space channels controlled by the empire in the pirate world, and in three years, the scope of the space channel covers almost the entire island and even begins to extend towards the sea.

But now, at the northwest landing point, it was shrouded in the phantom of a huge island, and the periphery of the island was wrapped in seawater, so it suddenly appeared on the sandstone land in the northwest.

The second photograph shows the empty land outside the city of Erlayin, which is located on the island of Kalimantan in the East China Sea, an uninhabited forest island, and likewise, it is presented by a phantom outside the city of Erlaiyin.

Heaton looked at the two phantoms in front of him, pondered for a moment, and said.

"What is it like to be in another world?"

"Your Majesty, look!"

The photo change on the light screen is the island of Wirt in the pirate world.

Due to the expansion of the spatial passage, all the residents of the island and the cadres of the Don Quixote family have all moved out.

Similarly, the island has a shadow of the northwestern sandstone formation, which covers the entire island and the coast, and it is strange to look at the overlap between the two.

You must know that when the space channel first appeared, it was only the fluctuations generated by the space, and through the fluctuations, you could reach another world, and it had no impact on the real world.

And the expansion of the space channel is only the expansion of the range of fluctuations, the so-called through the space channel, is the literal sense of the passage, only to reach a certain speed, the moving creatures or objects, through the fluctuating space, can reach another world.

As a result, stationary objects, such as the ground, trees, and even slightly shaking objects, will not pass through the spatial passage and reach the other world, even if they are within the range of spatial fluctuations.

"Minister Doteya has gone to investigate, and the initial idea given is that when the spatial fluctuations reach a certain range, the space of the two realms cannot support the huge fluctuations, so there is an anomaly."

Doteya had returned to the imperial capital since two years earlier.

Heaton nodded: "Where has the space passage outside Earl Yin City been?" ”

"There are still two kilometers left on the outskirts of the city, and now that the phantom has descended, the situation in the city has already discovered this phenomenon, and the local county guard has pacified it in time and has not caused panic."

"This may be a good sign!"

As the spatial passage outside the city of Erlai Yin continued to expand, and even covered some villages and towns outside the city of Erlaiyin, the empire could only send people to relocate and arrange their residences, and the garrison department did not have enough manpower to defend the entire spatial passage, so it could only draw out the forbidden area and patrol and monitor it from time to time.

But if this phenomenon continues, sooner or later it will cover the entire city of Erlaiyin, as a central city, the city has a large population, and if you want to move people, even the empire will find it very tricky.

And simply relocating the population is not a long-term strategy, you must know that there are two spatial passages near the imperial capital at present, will the population of the imperial capital have to migrate at that time, and where can they be migrated?

Heaton was also worried about this matter, and went to ask Nature, who naturally told him not to worry, just wait slowly.

In fact, from the appearance law of spatial channels, some clues can be roughly seen.

First of all, the first spatial passages appeared in the mountainous waters or open spaces near some large cities and towns.

There are not only human populations, but they will not affect the scope of life with the expansion of the range, and the same is true of the appearance of the pirate world, either there are uninhabited islands, but there are human lives not far away, or there are a few human living places.

Subsequently, the second and third batches of space passages also confirmed this law.

A month later, Dotya returned to the imperial capital and reported the results of the investigation.

She divides the spatial passage that was born after the fusion of the worlds into three stages.

In the first stage, spatial fluctuations, the space produces a small range of fluctuations, and the size of the fluctuations is determined by the stability of the space, when a critical fluctuation value is reached, the fluctuations will not dissipate, and the fluctuations begin to expand, thus distinguishing random spatial channels from fixed spatial channels.

In the second stage, the space is distorted, and the spatial fluctuations reach a certain threshold, which begins to distort the space of the two realms, so that the images of the two realms begin to be reflected.

In the third stage, the space fits, and the distorted space gradually affects reality, regardless of static movement, it will be affected, knowing that the two spaces are one.

Doteya said. During this month's inspection, it was discovered that the distorted space was affecting everything, including terrain veins, water veins, celestial phenomena, air, and more.

In other words, the sandstone of the northwest will even give birth to rivers that will gradually grow for the sea to flow to the sea, and will give birth to soil for the growth of trees.

In the same way, trees will grow in the open space outside the city, and even as the scope of the illusion expands, the city walls will break, and rivers will grow inside the city, connecting the four directions.

Such a change will not be far away, it is subtle, maybe the residents of Earl Yin City will wake up and find that the distance between them and the neighbor's house is a little farther.

Such a change is naturally detrimental to urban architecture, but it is more acceptable than that of migrating people.

"When is the third phase of the first batch of space passages?"

Heaton asked, looking at Dotea in front of him.

"Depending on the degree of distortion, it's about three years! Within three years, the number of space passages entering the second stage will reach fifty! ”

Dotea replied.

"The process of merging the worlds is faster than imagined!"

Heaton couldn't help but sigh, in this way, the originally planned twenty-year-long world fusion time would probably be half advanced!
