Walk alone in the abyss

This is a random interview on the streets of Emperor Star Circle.

"The federal guy's plan to bury the bug is a dead end to our civilization, which I cannot accept."

"It must be emphasized that this time the insect plague broke out on those forty planets, but not on our planet, but what about the next time? The New Federation has mastered the technology to control the insect swarm. This is the most terrifying and most terrifying thing. Terrible weapons, we must destroy them first."

"If total war is the only path to peace, then I am willing to apply to become a soldier of the Empire."

"I think the New Federation is going too far this time. We have never confronted them directly, but they have been trying to sabotage us."

"The reason why the second day's disaster is called the second day's disaster is because it is unpredictable and cannot be controlled. We have not been able to produce direct evidence of the new federation's creation of insect plagues. Everything originated from that person. The words and accusations of a great hero, and that hero is obviously a propaganda machine of the government, I think we should focus on disaster relief and follow-up aftermath.”

"The new federation is a democratic country. When they want to make major decisions, they should have the consent of many people."

The reporter asked, "Have you ever been to the New Federation?"

"No, but I have learned about the New Federation through the Internet. They have a democratic election system, which is a more civilized and advanced social system. Of course, I am not dissatisfied with our system. Our life is very rich, but the aristocracy seems Kind of annoying."

call out!

Yang Ming turned off the projection screen casually, and shook his head facing out the window.

It is now the fourth galactic day after the empire successfully sniped the swarm, and the Dongfeng is still sailing in the empire's barren star field.

The white ghost announced to the public that he was seriously injured and comatose, and Yang Ming took advantage of the situation to avoid the storm of public opinion by pretending to be sick.

Yang Ming opened the data link that was sent just now.

At this stage, the imperial civil war tendency has reached 72%, which is the highest level in the past hundred years.

The people in the empire were excited, but there was no more news from the emperor star of the empire.

Even the Imperial Military Department did not disclose more information.

This actually shows that the Imperial Army is actively preparing for war.

The logic here is very simple. If it is announced in a high-profile manner that a certain fleet will sail in a certain sensitive sea area, it is likely to be for political purposes, to pose, to seek leverage, and to create some pressure.

If a war is really going to start, and both sides have the strength to fight, the side that tries to start the war will inevitably release all kinds of smoke bombs, at least keep silent, and then suddenly show the blade.

Law doesn't dare to act on the imperial network now, but Yang Ming still has other sources of information.

For example, his spirit is subordinate to Bligh.

According to Bligh's feedback, the super-reformers were ordered to assemble, and they were assembled at the Skyfury Fortress, and they were on standby simultaneously with the Empire's cyborg troops.

Three dreadnought ships appeared near Skyfury Fortress for daily maintenance and supplies, and other ships came and went, countless in number.

The Empire’s campaign to clear up the remaining insect swarms is still ongoing. Ninety-five percent of the scattered insects have been marked, and the defense forces and small elite combat forces from all over the country will carry out the extermination. It is estimated that it will take one or two months to completely eliminate these insects. Hidden danger.

The tracking work of the sixth-order queen has also achieved obvious results. The escaped queen did not go too far after disappearing at the edge of human civilization.

She could come back at any time, which became a sharp sword hanging over the empire's head.

The Skyfury Fortress is suspended on the straight line between the Queen and the Emperor Star at this moment. As long as the Queen makes any moves, the Skyfury Fortress will respond as quickly as possible.

[I'm a trumpet (my master): Bligh, on the day the Skyfury Fortress jumped, was there anything unusual about the Emperor Star? 】

[Bligh: Strange? What exactly are you referring to? 】

[I am a trumpet (my master): For example, what did the highest level of the empire do? What abnormal fluctuations appeared on Emperor Star? 】

[Bligh: I don’t know much about this, I only have some unreliable gossip. Before the jump of the Skyfury Fortress, the Archbishop of the Empire's Civilization Development Sect presided over a prayer ceremony, and then there was a large-scale information jam on the Emperor Star, and part of the Emperor Star's reserve energy was used. Behind it is the network fluctuation of the major administrative stars in the emperor star circle, and a lot of network information is suddenly deleted. Some people say that it is the goddess enshrined by the empire that gave the empire feedback. I think it is possible that the god religion is responsible for contacting the high-dimensional human civilization. 】

[I am a trumpet (my master): Very good, we will try to reduce the frequency of online contact as much as possible. I am recovering from my injuries and still in a coma. 】

[Bligh: Catherine is very sad, but she doesn't know how to contact you. 】

[I'm a trumpet (my master): There's no way, I can't contact her directly, or I'll reveal my secrets, so let's do this first, don't reply. 】

Yang Ming threw the network access terminal aside, lay on the single bed with his arms pillowed on his head, staring at the starry sky outside the porthole.

Another mechanical thinking body.

Moreover, this mechanical thinking body still exists in the power core of the empire.

The law is now carefully investigating related matters.

Li, who has always been lawless and doing whatever he wants in the online world, is now cautious like a child walking among the map pins without shoes, and dare not speak too loudly these days.

'Levi Sherman. '

Yang Ming grabbed "The Emperor's Biography" in the small bookshelf beside him, and he decided to read it again from the beginning, looking for details that he had overlooked before.

In fact, he already had a set of logical conjectures.

Levi's accompanying mechanical thinking body must have helped Levi do a lot of things, and it is likely to be the most powerful help for the founding emperor.

After Levi's death, in some way, he left this mechanical thinking body to future generations, allowing her to protect the civilization of the empire.

Tens of thousands of years have passed. For human beings who can produce one generation in twenty years, this time span is too long and somewhat illusory. But for the mechanical thinking body, as long as the carrier remains stable, it is just a few long sleeps. Kung Fu.

Then, the founding emperor's right-hand man became the goddess enshrined by the descendants of the empire.

Is that true?

Intuition told Yang Ming that things were not that simple.

"Boss, I'm back."

Ritsu's voice sounded from the corner.

Yang Ming closed the book made of metal fibers, and looked at her with concern.

The expression is calm, and there is no moaning and crying, which means that he has not suffered any grievances.

"How's the investigation going?" Yang Ming asked warmly.

Lily clicked her tongue, and when she stepped forward, the light from the four corners of the rest cabin flickered slightly. She put on the plaid short skirt that the boss liked more and matched it with a white shirt, and she kicked on the transparent heeled sandals with her tender white feet.

"It's very strange," Lu sat on the side of the bed, with some doubts in his eyes, "I originally thought that the senior made the Emperor Star Circle into a restricted area, and moved forward with an attitude of trying, but found that, The imperial network has returned to its usual state, it seems that there are many patches, but in fact it is full of loopholes and is easy to infiltrate."

"Huh?" Yang Ming wondered, "That senior of yours just came out for a stroll, and then fell asleep again?"

"I checked the Emperor Star circle, tried to touch the government's internal network and the military's internal network, but did not encounter any obstacles."

Law pinched his chin and carefully analyzed:

"But I noticed traces of her past activities, many traces, and she has not erased the proof of her existence.

"In fact, the network of the Emperor Star circle is like the inner room of her home, and the entire Emperor Star overall network is her yard. She does not need to deliberately erase her footprints when she is active in her inner room and yard.

"Then, the servers I rented before were encrypted. It seems that she put some information in it, but I dare not decipher it now, for fear of stepping on the clip she put down."

Yang Ming wondered: "The empire has such a powerful mechanical thinking body, why can the public opinion war and intelligence war be completely suppressed by the new federation?"

Law softly said: "Is it possible that the empire was used to her network and intelligence protection before, so after losing her, it didn't continue to pay attention to it? One thing is certain, she can't be active for too long now time."

Yang Ming asked: "Is she restricted? Or does she only act when the empire encounters a real crisis?"

Law shook his head: "The network of the empire is a whole, which itself has many disadvantages, and the cost of construction and maintenance is very high, which is far less convenient than the network divided by regions in the new federation. The only thing I can think of now is the network of the empire itself. It is the unified network built around her that allows her to control resources in every corner of the empire at will."

"We still know too little about her," Yang Ming sighed softly.

Law clicked: "She didn't hurt me, she didn't attack me, she just expelled me from the Emperor Star Circle."

"What does this prove?"

"Boss, if I can get in touch with her, maybe we can take the express train of the empire directly!"

Lily smiled happily:

"Everyone is a mechanical thinking body. The mechanical thinking body doesn't lie to the mechanical thinking body. It's perfectly fine to ask her to give you some convenience and make you, the boss, the emperor's son-in-law or something.

"Then boss, you are worried about the Valkyrie and your responsibility for the home planet, can't you solve it easily?

"It's not a problem at all that the empire wants to shelter an asteroid."

"It's not that simple," Yang Ming couldn't laugh, "This mechanical thinking body may be our helper, helping us for your sake, but it's more likely to be our evil star. She understands omnics. Twilight, knowing our details and the existence of your three teachers, if she is hostile to us, it will be more terrifying than the Valkyrie suddenly appearing in front of my hatch."

Lily scratched his head, pursed his lips and groaned softly.

"I'll try again to see if I can get in touch with her," Lu murmured in a low voice, "Boss, let's not do things that are not good for the empire for the time being. I'm also a bit confused."

"Go," Yang Ming waved his hand, "There's no need to be too afraid. At worst, we'll hide in the omnic Twilight. If you, senior, can get in, Levi Sherman won't have to die in depression."

"One more thing...Miss Hera's condition is not very good. She seems to want to discuss something with you, the boss, but she hesitated after calling me a few times."

Yang Ming thought about it carefully.

The Molly Miss Mining Group is searching for the barren star field he marked, and there is no follow-up for the time being. Finding the Valkyrie is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Law, tell Hera that I will go back to Ilando soon, and if she wants to meet me, we will meet in the old place in the outer space of Ilando."

"Good boss... Miss Catherine really doesn't need to reply? She probably won't betray the boss."

"Isn't there still a small probability?" Yang Ming smiled, "You don't know Catherine, she is a guy with a strong sense of collective honor, so keep it a secret from her, I will try my best to make it up to her...if she needs it .”

...

It has changed, everything has changed.

These bastards!

Amidst the clattering sound, Alison waved his hand to clean up the table in front of him.

Everything is different!

There was no time for such a powerful queen to appear in "Abyss", and the game ended on their home planet; the twenty or thirty years before the service of "Abyss" should have been a relatively calm background of the Milky Way.

Now, there are already signs of an all-out war!

No, it's not just a sign. According to the CIA's intelligence, the empire is indeed going to declare war on the new federation. It's just that the empire has just experienced a plague of insects, and the ships need to rest and replenish.

The United States of Freedom, which was about to reach a military alliance with the new federation, suddenly changed its mind.

Alison thought of the humiliation he had suffered on the first planet of the United States of Freedom these days, especially the arrogant and despicable No. asshole!

Alison certainly had no affection for the New Federation.

Now he puts all the resources on the New Federation!

The road he wants to pave for his home planet is also in the New Federation!

If you give up now, all your previous efforts will be in vain.

What's more, Alison speculated that the game's service may not be at that time, and now he dare not give up these foundations in the new federation.

He has been bound to the New Federation.

How much information is hidden in this damned empire!

No, you can't sit still!

The new federation will not necessarily lose in the face of the empire.

Those two damned scientists actually chose to kill themselves after starting the plan; their predictions were completely correct, and the high-level Zerg's revenge was triggered by the outbreak of the Zerg Swarm, and the empire would collapse under the attack of the high-level Zerg.

They thought they had accomplished their mission;

But no one expected that the empire would defeat the high-level insect swarm.

Instead, the New Federation lost two top bug scientists.

The damned conscience of mankind is simply the biggest obstacle to the progress of civilization!

'What should I do? '

Alison huddled in his seat, gradually lost in thought.

...

At the same time, a resource star in Luofeng territory is located on the outskirts of an uninhabited planet in the star system, and four ships of different sizes are quietly floating in synchronous orbits.

On the bridge of the largest battleship, Mimily was sitting in a corner with a drink, looking at the screen in front of her with a bit of impatience in her eyes.

The old man on the screen is naturally Kolev after plastic surgery, a famous businessman in Luofeng Empire and a tycoon in the chemical and energy industry.

"Father, why don't you agree to my transformation?"

Mimi Li frowned and said:

"And I feel that I can make decisions about my own affairs.

"My fighting skills have reached the upper limit of ordinary people, I have injected muscle fiber strengthening injections, and my physical strength has reached the level of unlimited professional boxing.

"I want to improve, but I can only do transformation."

"What's the use of that, Mimily?"

Kolev persuaded earnestly:

"All you can get is a part of individual combat power, but in space, individuals are the most useless.

"Your Uncle Hanton is so powerful, can he fight against the ship's main gun?"

"But he can do what an ordinary fleet can't do. He killed three queens in one day!" Mimily said with bright eyes, "That is the real power, the power against the fleet!"

Kolev sneered: "Come on, if there is no fleet to cover fire for him, if it is not for the powerful Dongfeng to open the way for him, if he can touch a hair of the queen, I will consider him amazing."

"Father, you can't deny the significance of a strong individual!"

"Alright Mimily, we may have had a dispute... You were clearly fine before, why do you suddenly want to undergo surgery?"

The corner of Mimily's mouth twitched slightly, and she threw an electronic gossip magazine over.

This is a magazine produced in the empire a few issues ago. There is a poster painted on the page, which is a screenshot of Yang Ming and Catherine charging towards the queen at the same time during the live broadcast of the last insect extermination war.

"I will be stronger than this woman."

Mimi said seriously.
