Chapter 198: The Beginning of Human God-killing (Subscription Requested)
James's answer made everyone feel reasonable at once.
According to the efficiency of the Imperial Council, the Cape Town galaxy is estimated to be a no-man's land before they can react.
But if it were the Holy Emperor, it would be very different.
He always anticipates the enemy and prepares in advance.
"What kind of equipment and weapons exactly." Dante asked the question that was most of his concern.
Judging from the information left by the Human Alliance, the Weeping Angel is also quite tricky and cannot be killed by any weapon.
They can only be trapped by various means, so that they can be turned into sculptures forever, until they lose their power and become dilapidated.
"I didn't say it, but I knew that it was the latest research results, and it was specially used to deal with the Weeping Angel."
James opens a new projection screen, showing images of the Cape Town galaxy and some requests for help from the local government.
"From the description of the Human Alliance, the Weeping Angel is not difficult to deal with. Once gazed, their quantum states collapse and become sculptures. In the process, they are immobile and do not move at all. Just place them in front of each other so that they stay locked. ”
"It doesn't sound like a tough deal to deal with." Geralt shrugged and said, "Let's go that far, just to put up a sculpture?" ”
Dante also has some confusion.
The weakness of the Weeping Angel is too obvious, and even ordinary people can easily solve it as long as they know the way to target it.
Why did the God Emperor still ask for demon hunters to be dispatched, and also to send psionics.
This is a bit unreasonable!!
I guess there are other arrangements.
Dante was about to speak, but noticed that his surroundings had changed.
Geralt, James, and the others vanished in front of him as quickly as paper burned in flames.
The same goes for the perimeter consoles, floors, and ceilings, where flames sweep through, turning them to ashes and disappearing.
"Illusion!"
Dante reacted immediately, and his brow furrowed.
As the strongest demon hunter, psionic energy is ineffective against him, and the power of subspace is also nullified on his body.
Even those evil god dependents in the subspace may not be able to do him any harm.
And now he has been pulled into a fantasy land.
He subconsciously wanted to draw his sword, but found that he didn't bring a sword when he was in a meeting.
It's really a stupid act, and you should carry a weapon at all times.
A hint of chagrin wells up in Dante's heart, and he decides that he will carry a weapon wherever he goes in the future.
"It's good that you're full of vigilance."
The calm and heavy voice, the familiar breath and the absolute majesty that cannot be questioned by the world came together.
Dante was stunned and then ecstatic, and he knelt down on one knee and saluted.
The soulless king who terrified countless evil gods, the strongest demon hunting sword in the empire, can wipe out a super family that crosses the stars with a single word.
Now he knelt down on one knee and paid the highest courtesy to those who came.
"Your Majesty."
Dante called out the name of the comer, his body trembling slightly with excitement.
"You have matured, and you have become more composed and powerful than you were in the Regulus Galaxy."
Qin Zheng walked out of the empty air.
The scenarios they live in are also changing rapidly.
The two stood on a desolate stretch of sand.
The wind swept and the sand and dust raged.
As far as the eye can see, there is a gray patch everywhere.
Dante could feel the slight pain in his face being beaten by the wind and sand.
It's not a fantasy, it's a real world.
"Your Majesty has praised it."
Dante's usually expressionless face showed a rare smile, but he still maintained the etiquette and did not exceed the rules.
"Let's get up and talk first."
Qin Zheng stretched out his hand and helped Dante up.
The two of them stood on the desolate desert, and at the end of their line of sight, there was a magnificent mountain range, and at the top of the mountain range, a brilliant pillar of light shot into the sky, piercing the layers of dimensional space, and submerging into the eternal supreme heaven.
Dante looked around, and he realized that he was on some desertified planet.
"Here?" He looked at Qin Zheng with a puzzled look.
"The Tianfu Galaxy, where the second lighthouse is located." Qin Zheng explained nonchalantly.
"The second lighthouse has been activated, the process of repairing the galaxy has advanced a lot, Your Majesty's great cause is just around the corner, and the unification of the galaxy can already see the dawn."
Dante had known about this earlier from the news.
His words were sincere, and there were no lies or deceptions.
As the head of the Demon Hunting Court, Dante knows a lot of secret things.
The six lighthouses built by the martyrs at the end of the Human Alliance are the key to the restoration of the galaxy.
The Xuanyuan Galaxy activated the first one, and the Tianfu Galaxy activated the second one.
As long as all six lighthouses are activated, the galaxy will be restored to what it was before the Eternal Night Storm raged.
Human civilization will also shine again.
"It's a lot of progress, but there's still a long way to go." Qin Zheng looked at the lighthouse in the distance, lost his mind slightly, paused for a moment, and then continued, "Let's get back to business, this time it was my arrangement for you to deal with the Weeping Angel." ”
"Your Majesty's arrangement, Dante should be unconditionally obeyed. It's just that Dante doesn't understand, the weakness of the Weeping Angels race is obvious, as long as they know their weaknesses, even ordinary troops can easily deal with them, why did he deliberately deploy witchers and psionics to the past, and specially designated me. ”
Dante asked, confused.
"The Weeping Angel is an ancient creature, ancient enough to rival the universe, with an ultimate defense mechanism called quantum locking. When they are observed, they do not exist, just inanimate stone statues. Even if the stone statues were broken, they would not suffer a single death or injury. And the most difficult thing is the mother body of the Weeping Angel, once there is only one Weeping Angel in the universe. It will automatically become the mother, and no matter what means are used, it cannot be destroyed, only trapped. ”
By virtue of this means, the Weeping Angel has survived from the distant past to the present. Countless races in the universe have risen and fallen, and they have always existed. During the Human Alliance, they rose again, polluting and transforming tens of billions of human beings. The formation of a large army of fallen angels caused great panic at the time. The Human Alliance made great sacrifices to create an unimaginable rift in time to defeat the army and trap the Matrix. But after exhausting all means, he has never been able to destroy it, and can only remain trapped in the coffin. ”
"At the end of the Human Alliance, the situation was turbulent, and he was forced to transfer to the Nephilim Star Zone and send it to the dimensional dimension opened up there, but on the way, he was besieged by the traitorous forces of the hermitage and the fleet in charge of escorting them was completely wiped out, and only one escaped, and that was the ship escorting the Weeping Angel. The ship disintegrated in the Void due to overloading, leaving the Weeping Angel in the Eternal Void. They stayed there until adventurers found them and brought them back to the Cape Town system. ”
Qin Zheng calmly recounted the ins and outs of this matter.
As for why he knew so clearly, it was because when those people prayed, he cast his attention on.
Saw everything that happened on the Cowboy West.
But Qin Zheng can't do much, and his strength is not extravagant enough to be wasted to save a few small characters.
More importantly, Qin Zheng needed those people to bring the Weeping Angel back to the empire's borders.
The Weeping Angel influences the fate of the Cowboy West, setting it free and bringing it back to human civilization and giving it another chance to grow stronger.
Qin Zheng acquiesced to all this.
The Weeping Angel wants to use intelligent beings to grow back stronger.
Qin Zheng wanted to weep the origin of the angels, wanted to cut off their lifeline, and prepared for the god-killing plan.
Some sacrifices had to be accepted, such as the crew on the Cowboy West.
There are many places in the galaxy where what happens is far more important than the lives of these people.
Qin Zheng watched indifferently as those Weeping Angels killed those innocent adventurers, allowing their remnants to be transformed into Weeping Angels.
The only thing to do is to take away the soul of the deceased after the fact.
Maybe some people can't accept such cruelty, thinking that Qin Zheng should not be left behind and save everyone.
But this is the cruel side of the superiors.
The tram problem can only be troubled by ordinary people, and the superior can only consider the interests of the majority.
In decision after decision, there will always be people who will be sacrificed.
Dante did not ask what role his lord played.
He commanded, and he obeyed, and that was enough.
When the carriage that sent them to hell was violently broken open and they were allowed to see the light, his loyalty had been given to the Supreme God-Emperor for all eternity.
Those who are cunning will have ten million reasons for him to betray the God Emperor, but one reason for loyalty is enough.
It was He who saved Himself on that train, and it was He who gave the Soulless their value and became feared witchers.
If the God Emperor is not worthy of being trusted, then there is absolutely no existence in this universe that can be trusted.
"I still don't understand why His Majesty sent me to the Cape Town system." Dante was solemn for a moment before speaking again.
"The Weeping Angel has always existed, and we can suppress it for a while, but we can't suppress it forever. So I want you to get rid of it completely, and the Weeping Angels are not a race in a way, but a viral meme. Because they no longer have the concept of civilization, survival, reproduction, etc., the sole purpose of existence is to spread the Weeping Angel meme, like a virus that reproduces and grows without limit. The Weeping Angel itself has become an anomaly in the universe, and if humans want to be safe, they must be removed. ”
"But the mother is indestructible, what am I going to do?"
"It's true that the matrix is indestructible, but we don't need to destroy it, we just need to assimilate it, distort it. The Weeping Angel is a creature between subspace and reality, once only the last mother remains, it will become truly indestructible, and I can't destroy the Weeping Angel's mother, but I can assimilate it with other things and make it something else. You are the strongest soulless in the Empire, enough to assimilate the Mother Memes and cut off the fate of the Weeping Angel once and for all. ”
"Assimilating the mother body of the Weeping Angel? Can that be done? ”
"This hypothesis was put forward at the end of the Human Alliance, and I have carefully reviewed it several times, and I think there is a high probability that it can be done. That's why I'm sending you to the Cape Town system, planning for you to get rid of the Mother Body once and for all. “
"Then I assimilated with the Weeping Angel and won't become a sculpture, right??"
"No, you have a real body, so you don't turn into a stone statue because of someone else's gaze. On the contrary, if you assimilate the Weeping Angel, you can master the quantum state of the Weeping Angel, and as long as you are not observed, you can have any speed at any speed, and you can even assimilate others into you. ”
"Can I ask one more question?"
"Whatever you want."
"Why would Your Majesty think of killing the Weeping Angel? Although the mother body is somewhat difficult to solve, as long as it is sealed, there will be no harm. ”
"That's why I brought you here, Dante." Qin Zheng stretched out his hand and swiped in the air, and the wind became more and more violent, blowing the sand on the ground, revealing what was underneath.
Dante saw a frightening scene.
Underneath those windswept sands were countless white bones.
There are so many of them, they are countless, and they are all of them.
It is hard to imagine how many lives died tragically in this place to cause such a hell.
"All living beings in the Tianfu Galaxy have been killed, some by the Soul Destroying Wave released by the Judgment Blade, and some by the blood sacrifice of the Ascended God. At our feet stood the site of the blood sacrifice, where millions of living beings died and a city was reduced to rubble and buried by the sandstorms. The Weeping Angel is insignificant among many enemies, but it is as old as they are and indestructible. Humans can defeat them once, twice, three times, but they can always rise a fourth, fifth, or sixth time. We can't be passive like this forever, if in a struggle, only human beings will die, and they will only lose something unimportant, then they will have no scruples, and only by letting them also die, will they be afraid, and humanity will usher in a real future. ”
"The Weeping Angel is just an attempt, your soulless essence is the best means to remove all anomalies from this world, we defeat them, assimilate them, erase their will, and if we can succeed, it will be the beginning of the human godskill."
Dante looked stunned, and the lord's words were full of madness.
Unifying the galaxy and conquering the stars is no longer enough to satisfy Him.
Even the eternal gods are not going to let go.
He didn't answer immediately, but stared at the white bones on the ground.
In the chaotic last days, human life is cheaper than mustard.
The whole race is like a big cake, wantonly snatched by those ancient beings, without dignity.
Perhaps it was this that prompted the God Emperor to give birth to the madness of purging the gods.
"Can we really do it?" Dante's tone was tinged with apprehension, "The power of the gods is too great, they are so immortal that even time cannot destroy them. ”
"If you do it, you have a chance to succeed. If you don't do it, you'll fail 100 percent. There's no reason, if the fate of civilization is ultimately destruction, then why not give it a go?? Feel free to do it, I will help you at a critical moment, assimilating the mother body of the Weeping Angel, which will be a beginning, the beginning of the destruction of eternity. ”
After saying this, the surrounding environment changed again, and the light flame reappeared, with Dante as the center, sweeping in all directions, and the surrounding yellow sand and white bones quickly faded like embers.
Dante was stunned for a moment, and he was back on the bridge of the Bound Demon.
It can also be said that he never left.
The crowd at the strategy table is talking about a course of action on how to deal with the Weeping Angels.
He should have been with the God Emperor for more than ten minutes just now, but in reality, it was only a moment in the past.
"Lord Dante? Is there something going on? Geralt saw Dante's eyes flickering across the look.
Dante recovered from his trance and looked back at the projection in front of him.
"Keep talking, I'm fine."
The Demonbinder made its way through the storm-torn subspace to the Cape Town system.
An Imperial fleet of three battleships has been ordered to completely blockade the colonies in the Cape Sector.
A large number of warplanes roamed in the void, blocking all routes for ground aircraft to enter the void.
If a violator is discovered, he will immediately open fire and destroy it.
A clear red line was drawn between the fleet and the colony, which no one could cross.
The blockade has led to the implementation of rationing locally, but using this stupid method, the Empire has succeeded in subduing the flood of Weeping Angels, suppressing them in the Cape Town system, and no one has allowed them to spread to other regions.
Locking down the Cape Town Galaxy is also a no-brainer, the Weeping Angel meme spreads too easily, and as long as someone leaves, there is a risk that the Weeping Angel meme will spread on a large scale, causing a full-blown crisis.
The arrival of the Demon Bound quickly attracted attention.
Several warplanes approached in the void, sending out the standard Imperial Q&A message.
[This is the Imperial Navy, you have entered the military restricted area, please inform your identification code and the purpose of the flight.] 】
[This is the Imperial Navy, you have entered the military restricted area, please inform your identification code and the purpose of the flight.] 】
Farther away, an Imperial ship also turned, locking onto the Demon Bound ship that had leapt out of subspace
With the completion of identity verification and the notification of the purpose of her visit to the Cape Town system, the Demon Bound was quickly granted the right of way.
An Imperial fighter led them to the flagship of the Imperial fleet, the strike battleship USS Ethan.
The Ethan, like other battleships, was majestic and massive.
According to Dante's visual observations, the battleship should have been between twenty-three and twenty-five kilometers long.
The bow is shaped like a bladed piece of armor, riveted with high-density alloy armor that can easily shatter everything in the universe.
The angular hull tightly connects to the bow.
Religious statues stand on either side of the ship, with large gun muzzles in the middle.
At the top of the ridge of the ship were raised several jagged towers, and there was also a splendid church covered with armor.
The tail is a huge thruster.
Taken as a whole, the ship is a cathedral and a religious sculpture fitted with thrusters and cannons.
The Demon Binding anchored next to the Ethan, and Dante and the others took a transport ship to the flagship.
As the transports approached, a navigation drone guided them to the upper berths.
There are several entrances to the high-level moorings, but all of them have fallen armor plates, and only one is open, apparently for Dante's arrival.
The transporter entered the only open entrance, through the shield barrier and into the interior of the Ethan.
It was a huge vaulted deck, and the walls and ceiling were painted in a glossy black coating.
The high-pressure lumen lamps, which were held to the ceiling by threaded posts, were arranged in a dense array of lighting.
The entire deck is illuminated.
A large number of robotic arms and engineering drones hum above their heads.
Fighters and gunboats were moored in hangars, and some were pulled onto the runway, waiting for orders to take off.
A general dressed in an Imperial Navy uniform with eyes and arms molded into metal stood on the deck with a group of Imperial officers.
They stood up straight, their eyes as sharp as eagles, and it was clear that they were not wine bags or rice bags.
They were also accompanied by several legionnaires in power armor.
The leader of the warriors was a strange one-armed warrior.
"Welcome, Mistress Dante." The Imperial General stepped forward and introduced himself, "I am the head of this fleet, Rear Admiral Yurid. This is Rosen of the Second Legion, and he is with a group of recruits to assist us in the blockade mission. ”
Dante looked around at the men, eventually focusing on the warrior with the broken arm.
"You stepped down from the front line? What position did you hold before? ”
"Yes, when he participated in the war of annihilation of the Sith Empire, he served as the personal guard officer of the Second Legion."
With his last remaining hand, Lawson removed his helmet, revealing his scarred face.
Hearing the familiar name, Dante was stunned for a moment.
When he was in Sinku District, he first received training from Bai Qi.
I haven't seen each other in years.
The most recent news is that Dante has discovered a new human civilization and launched a war of conquest against it.
Dante looked at the other man's one-armed, "Why doesn't this hand heal?" ”
"I had a robotic arm implanted, but it had a severe rejection, so I removed it." Rosen was calm, "This is not the front line, even if it is one-armed, it is enough to deal with most situations." And my current position is an instructor, which will not affect the mission. ”
"I didn't mean that, just curious." Dante turned his gaze back to Creed, "Tell me about the current situation, and has the team of psionics sent by the Empire arrived?" ”
"Please come with us to the strategy room first, my lord, everything has been recorded in the database and updated in real time, in a sentence or two, it is not clear. As for the psionic forces responsible for escorting weapons and devices, it is expected to arrive today or tomorrow. ”
As soon as the words fell, an officer ran over in small steps, and after saluting, he clicked on the data board and started to make a report.
"The 177 psionic troops from the Xuanyuan system arrived at the outskirts of the Cape Town galaxy on the starship, the Holy Emperor's Light, and requested to enter."
The state is average.,I'll try my best to write another one at night.,Strive to advance to the plot line of the assassination of the tyrant.
