Chapter 1,339 A Chance Encounter in a Dessert Shop
(First of all, I wish everyone a happy National Day, and I envy those who have a long holiday - and then I ask for monthly tickets...)
After the problem in Yuanjiang was resolved, the number of things he had to deal with suddenly seemed to increase. After only two days of rest at home, various work reports came from the lower-level information network and were marked "urgent, requiring royal review." Plans were piled up in front of him. After excluding daily matters, the rest were basically related to recent events:
We need to restart the exploration of the universe where the materials from our hometown have been unearthed. The second scientific expedition team will set off to the far frontier within 24 hours. Tavel has already organized the original working group and added a dozen more of his own. Projecting the mass of the universe into it, this time she plans to turn the universe upside down in one breath, and at the same time prepare for the later "world pulling", because Sandora plans to drag the universe to the empire for long-term observation, and the latter still has no Give up on finding the coordinates of my home world.
The immigration work of the Hessian tribe has begun. We plan to build three world gates to meet the immigration needs. Because the Hessian tribe has a large population, and the planet fortresses they built must be moved to their new home together, so the second one While the third World Gate was large in scale and would probably take days to complete, a smaller World Gate was quickly laid out and was already in use to usher the Hessian advance party to their new home: a A carefully selected universe that has just been officially launched and all resources are in 100% condition.
Speaking of these "mass-produced universes", the New Empire is no longer at the stage of poverty and poverty. We have many resource-rich and diverse worlds for our families to live in. Most of these new worlds were created by the empire in the past two years: creating an information singularity. Then accurately guide and catalyze it into a universe. In fact, this technical difficulty is not high. The name "Creation God" sounds very high-end and foreign, but according to Tavel, as long as you master the formula of information deduction and can create the most basic "point", creating a world is no more complicated than building a naval gun. How much? Most of the processes can be completed automatically by the laws of the universe. The catalytic work can be easily accomplished through the characteristics of the void without a time axis. Through the void equipment, billions of years of universe evolution can be directly collapsed into a process that can be completed in a few seconds. The formed "conclusion state". Tavel just can't figure out how Dingdang's tens of thousands of years of creation god re-examination came from... Well, we won't discuss this issue. In short, in the past two years, the empire has begun to create cheap and easy-to-use "commodity universes" ; In addition, there are some materials from the New World that are friendly supports from the Star Territory Protoss - well, they are actually the private property of the five protoss gang members. They finally seemed to feel a little bit embarrassed about eating and drinking at my house, so they used the materials they couldn't use. Some universes that have not yet begun to function are given to the empire as rent. Can we not complain about this rent issue?
The new home arranged for the Hessian tribe is a stable universe with rules that are highly similar to their "old home" because this race has passed the advanced stage of space exploration. There is no need for them to adapt to the laws of the new world all over again. Next, the Hessian tribe only needs to build their home in their new world and integrate it into the empire's information network as soon as possible. Once the transmission channels connecting them to other worlds are operating stably, This race has officially become a member of the Imperial Familia. Sandora arranged for the "mentors" of the tree elves and the civilized community to be the leaders of the Hesse tribe. The former has good affinity and has had contact with the old empire. They are most suitable to be the guides who welcome new brothers. In fact, tree elves are almost active when any race joins the imperial camp for the first time. After introducing the big family to the new members of the macro world or the imperial family, they are always used to saying " Well, welcome to your new home, my brother/sister” as a conclusion. This has basically become the standard rhetoric for new recruits in the empire. The Civilized Community is somewhat similar to the Hessian tribe in character, although the latter looks more "magical". But the two should be very harmonious in most places. For Hessians, it should be easier for Hessians to integrate into the group when meeting a group of people with similar personalities to themselves in a strange environment.
What we have to deal with next is the recruitment of the remnants of Haran, as well as the reorganization of leader-level fallen apostles like Haran and Zadom. Although the number of fallen apostles we captured on the battlefield is limited, it is compared to the size of the entire legion. In contrast, in fact, the number of fallen apostles captured by the imperial army this time can be described as unprecedented. Except for Xiaoxue's last feat of deceiving an entire fleet from the enemy's base camp, this time is the largest number of fallen apostles we have captured. The number of ships may be limited, but the combined number of soldiers and commanders is already hundreds of thousands - can you imagine how many large playgrounds could be filled with so many people spread out? When Qianqian helped count people, they directly used the football field as a unit: we captured half a football field of commanders at all levels, two football fields of royal guards, and many ordinary soldiers of the football field - this is Qian Qian's original words.
Speaking of which, half of the legion that Xiaoxue deceived last time was Harlan's subordinates. The first person captured, Carter Carlo, was also Harlan's subordinate. Vincent Carlo and his fleet captured last time were also Harlan's subordinates. Lan's subordinates, this time we not only captured Harlan's subordinates, but also captured Harlan himself. What's going on with this sudden feeling of sympathy...
In short, there are quite a lot of things that need to be arranged. I plan to arrange some of the ordinary soldiers and middle- and lower-level commanders in Harlan's old army to be part of the Abyss Legion under Viska. Counting these new recruits, Viska's legion will be completely After taking shape, she and Pandora both have a complete independent army of generals (a quick-reaction, elite army that is independent of the major armies and directly commanded by the generals of the empire). This is undoubtedly the case at a time when the empire has successive wars and its military strength is slightly tense. As a big help, another part of the abyssal apostles can be mixed with the existing abyssal army of the empire. Due to their special nature, this part of the army is still independent of the major armies of the empire. They independently carry out some special operations against the fallen apostles. Combat or reconnaissance missions, and occasionally cooperate with regular troops. As the conflict between the Empire and the Fallen Apostles intensifies, the gaps in this part of the special operations force become more and more obvious. There is an urgent need for fresh blood to be added.
As for leader-level apostles like Harlan and Zadom, it would be best for them to continue doing their job. Lead the troops to fight. The size of the Abyssal troops is now getting larger and larger. The Abyssal Apostles have become a group that cannot be ignored under the new empire, but there are few high-level commanders among them (after all, capturing a leader is sometimes more difficult than capturing 10,000 soldiers. Difficult), these troops are usually managed by Viska, but to be honest - I think Viska is worse than Pandora... The latter at least has a sense of general, but Viska's biggest hobby on weekdays is Squatting in the corner counting ants and chatting with Qianqian's Brazilian tortoise, I really feel that Harlan and Zadom's joining the team is so timely!
It's just that Harlan's opinion still depends on his own thoughts, just in case this person, like Bella Villa, plans to retire for three to five years. There's nothing I can do about giving myself a long vacation of eight or nine hundred days... After all, he's more or less a former emperor, right? And I'm still feeling guilty for beating him up last time...
At that time, Haran should be tied back and let Xiaoxue take action. That girl looked like she would not be guilty of anything she did.
However, there is also exciting good news among these troubles, and that is about Harlan's King's Lander formation...
Harlan's King's Lander formation is definitely a generous gift. It has been coveted by the New Empire for a long time - for a while, I dreamed about spinning a hula hoop. It was the days after Harlan's King's Lander formation first appeared on the border battlefield. This time we finally got a complete sample of this super battleship. With Tavel's ability, she will probably be able to find a way to copy this kind of ship soon, and then we can finally compete with the fallen apostle on the shortcomings of the super battleship. Tied.
Of course, due to the fierce fighting situation, the Imperial Army failed to successfully capture all of Harlan's King's Lander battleships. Except for the four King's Lander cores that I disarmed at the beginning of the battle, the remaining super battleships were basically completely destroyed or self-destructed in the fierce battle. Only two severely damaged battleships survived, but these Already, Tavel and others concerned are overjoyed. Four complete cores, and two prototype ships that were damaged but not beyond repair. Sandora ate six more bowls of rice at noon today just because of the pictures of these spaceships. You can see how much these things mean to the empire. Now Tavel is organizing her most trusted senior assistants to repair the two damaged spaceships. She herself went to dismantle the four cores. The girl with glasses was completely immersed in the ocean of balls and circles and couldn't extricate herself... She sent me more than 20 technical reports that I couldn't understand at all. The report concluded with a concise summary. He said a sentence: If your Majesty does not understand, just write it and read it. This subordinate is just expressing his feelings.
Although I felt like there was something worth complaining about, I happily wrote "read".
Things outside the King's Fleet are not so pleasant: the battle damage reports of the Imperial Army, the periodic table of recovery of each legion, the intelligence from the fallen apostle border: the enemy's recent activities seem to have increased signs, and Sandora "Ancestor Resurrection Plan". My Majesty the Queen seemed really confident to start resurrecting the ancestors, but the plan encountered tons of technical problems before it even started. These technical problems were also compiled by Tavel into dozens of incomprehensible reports. Shang also summed it up concisely and concisely: If your majesty doesn’t understand, just put it aside for now. In short, it means that the resurrection failure rate is more than 90%.
I don’t know if Sandora can accept this failure rate.
I sat in the study room after lunch and read the report. I didn’t move until the sun set outside. When the end bell of the nearby middle school faintly sounded, I felt as if I had finally become a person who is concerned about the country and the people. A good leader—the kind who ages prematurely, has a hunchback, loses his hair, and ends up with a terminal terminal disease. Although I don’t think I can get a terminal disease, I really can’t persist with this mentality. Looking at the little crow catching mice outside the window, Qian Qian catching the little crow, and my sister catching Qian Qian, I was extremely excited. I started to pull my hair, one strand at a time, wishing that everything in front of me could be processed automatically in an instant. The little doll, who had been reading a comic book that was bigger than herself all afternoon, noticed the movement here and immediately flew over. Finally, this girl still had some snacks, so she decided to help——
She helped me pull my hair, pulling my hair strand by strand...
I can't understand at all how these weird guys around me have reflexes. The virus has spread widely. There are more and more people with brain twitching.
"Go, go, I'm busy with business here."
I tried hard to remove the little doll from my head. Put the little girl on the table by her ribs. Speaking of which, this little guy didn't seem to be doing anything serious when he went out with the adults this time. Little Crow and Little Bubble at least sneaked in and pried...I mean, they helped find clues about Harlan and saved precious time for the army. But this SD doll was busy watching the fun and fighting with Lilina from the beginning to the end. The only serious thing she did was to lead her three-headed cute army after the battle to help the Hessian tribe treat the wounded and repair the spacecraft: those little guys, who were only over half a meter tall, were very agile in this regard. Their work efficiency is very high. The most important thing is that they are born to love drilling pipelines and various spacecraft fault zones. They are all good candidates for the engineering corps - I mean, as long as they are not stuck.
But even though he didn't do anything serious, the little doll seemed to be quite satisfied with the expedition and stopped making trouble after returning.
"What are you busy with?" the little doll kicked up and down the table. "You have been in a daze for half an hour just now."
I thought about it and found that I had no way to refute it, so I simply put down the things in my hands. He put the little doll on his shoulder and said, "Let's go to Shadow City for a walk."
The little doll actually just wanted to attract attention. She probably didn’t ask for where to go or what to do, so the little guy immediately became happy, holding my head and twisting around like a steering wheel: I’m glad she didn’t plan to give it to me. I put a rear view mirror in my ear and this girl sits on my shoulder all day long. She has almost developed some weird habits now. The last time I saw her reading a car magazine, it scared me...
As I was thinking this, I heard an exclamation from my shoulder: "Idiot, please pay attention to your bending... Wow!" "Bang!"
"Anweina! Come and repair the door!"
Ten minutes later, I was carrying the little doll and walking on the streets of Shadow City, which were as bustling and lively as ever. The sd doll on the shoulder is trying to pull out all my hair, and I found that it is more difficult. She started to hold my head and nibble it. We met many acquaintances along the way. The old residents of Shadow City were already used to seeing His Majesty the Emperor hanging out in disguise every now and then. They came up to say hello enthusiastically: "Good afternoon, Your Majesty." ." "Your Majesty accompanied the little princess out again?" "Your Majesty was bitten again?" "Is your Majesty still bitten?"
Such things as this are depressing and depressing.
I looked up at the sky. Gaia's majestic figure was still hanging upside down in the sky, but there was a new thing at the end of the distant skyline. It was a huge cube - well, it was part of a cube. Due to location issues, half of its figure is still covered behind Gaia. On the Shadow City side, only an angular right-angled cone can be seen protruding from the edge of Gaia's curved earth. That is the front The "General Star" dragged back from the Hessian's hometown these days, the cubic "planet" that Viska knocked out for his evil deeds back then, is now hanging majestically next to Gaia, forcibly fixed with equipment and frames. Together with Gaia and the Shadow City Floating Continent, they formed a strange three-star system. I now somewhat understand what the crazy AI said: I have no idea what the use of this square planet is. It is definitely not suitable for living. Due to its shape, only the central part of each surface has normal gravity. Where the square is close to the ridge line, the gravity is almost at an angle of forty degrees with the ground. It can be used as a tourist attraction. Tourists can visit You can see a lot of strange sights here, and you can also experience the scene in the mythical story of "walking to the end of the earth, seeing endless space in front of you, and another vertical land under your feet." Anyway, Qianqian has already planned it Let's start a tourism project and build a bunch of parks and playgrounds on General Cube. Of course, Qianqian still has a lot to plan, so don’t ask about the specific details of this travel project...
Unknowingly, I left the bustling commercial street with the little doll on my shoulders. The latter didn't like the excitement, so I looked like I had no interest in everything I saw on the commercial street, so I just walked to quiet places. , when they finally noticed, the two of them had arrived near the military zone: it was the most secluded place.
Not far ahead is a quiet road. At the end of the road is a small store that is incompatible with the surrounding military buildings. The sign in front of the store simply reads a few words: Xiaoxi Dessert Shop.
I thought about it and felt that this was related to the fact that I usually wandered around here with Sandora. With Her Majesty the Queen's reflex training, I can now walk to this place blindfolded...
"Idiot, I want to eat!" The little doll pulled my ears hard, "Hurry up!"
This time I was smarter. When I entered the door, I held the little doll in my arms to prevent her from touching her head. Of course, another reason was that when I was still more than ten meters away from the door, the little one jumped down with a squeak, and she Afraid of being hit.
Accompanied by a pleasant sound of wind chimes, I walked into Sylvia's dessert shop holding the little doll. It was as quiet as usual here - you can just say there is no business. The artificial dusk light of Shadow City shines into the store through the large glass windows, giving this small space a lazy and comfortable atmosphere.
The silver-haired Sylvia was lying at the table near the door, sleeping heavily.
Opposite her sat a tall, slender, straight, black girl with a somewhat unfamiliar face. There was a sign hanging on the girl's chest, with a name crookedly written on it: Xiling. (To be continued.
