Walk alone in the abyss

The city of light, the surface, a thousand times the speed of time.

With the Lv24 awakener level that shocked the coaches, Yang Ming successfully got the quota to enter the advanced training base, and got a not-so-large farewell ceremony.

——Actually, I just ate a casual meal in the cafeteria.

Then, Yang Ming boarded the hover car that came to pick them up together with his roommates.

In the City of Light with a population of hundreds of billions, all numbers seem to be magnified.

There are tens of thousands of initial training bases, large and small, but only hundreds of advanced training bases;

Because most of the awakened people entered the "Awakened People's Administration" in various places after leaving the initial training base, and joined the awakened people's teams in various places.

In fact, most areas of the City of Light are usually very peaceful.

In urban areas where special events often occur, there will be two or three Awakened squads stationed permanently, and a sufficient number of Awakened will be reserved as a mobile brigade to support out-of-control incidents at any time.

When Yang Ming chose his own development path, he also hesitated.

In the training base, his degree of freedom is relatively low, and his range of activities is also very small. He can only go home to "visit his parents" on two days of vacation every month, and he is usually not allowed to go out for activities.

If he went to the local awakening team, he could guarantee his training and at the same time learn more about the city of light, helping Li to complete the full-scale invasion work faster.

But after careful consideration, he decided to go to the advanced training base for 'advanced studies'.

Schooling, most of the time, is the fastest way to self-improvement.

The training at the advanced training base usually lasts for five years, and during these five years, Yang Ming will be guaranteed to be promoted to Lv35.

And when his combat rating reached Lv60, he would have a chance to get close to Levy.

Perhaps, he doesn't need to spend 'so long' time here.

Thinking of this, a mild smile appeared on the corner of Yang Ming's mouth, and a slight sigh of emotion came from the bottom of his heart.

"Daru!"

Edwan Kabuba, who started to sleep soundly shortly after getting in the car, suddenly woke up from his sleep and grabbed Yang Ming's arm.

Yang Ming looked at this guy with a frown, and said angrily, "What are you doing?"

"Ah," Edwan Kabuba looked terrified, "I just had a dream that our dormitory was separated! Oh, my God, this is a horror movie."

"No, no, no," Yang Ming shook his head, "This is a comedy to me."

"We are good brothers, Daru!"

The blond youth said solemnly:

"I have to take care of you by your side, you are a training madman, every day you open your eyes to train, and close your eyes to sleep.

"How do you deal with relationships without me by your side? How do you deal with relationships? How do you deal with those teachers?"

Yang Ming pondered a few times: "Okay Kabu, but do you think that we don't really need too much interpersonal communication? We are here to improve our strength, not to make friends."

The driver in the front seat and a middle-aged man in uniform looked at the two of them leisurely.

"Oh, Daru, your understanding of society is too limited."

Edwan Kabuba said seriously:

"The healthy functioning of society depends not on fighting and killing, but on the rule of law, morality, human sophistication, and idealism."

Yang Ming wondered: "I understand the sophistication of the world. It is to make individuals more tolerant of the collective and find an environment that suits them. What about idealism?"

"Idealism is the best medicine against reality."

Edwan Kabuba said with a smile:

"For example, it is the so-called mutual protection between officials and officials that people often say. This mutual protection between officials and officials mostly occurs among officials in the same region. Their underlying logic is:

"If I don't help you today, who will help me tomorrow?

"So officials can maximize their own interests by covering and supporting each other, and obviously, the existence of this phenomenon will hurt the feelings of the public.

"How can this problem be solved?

"Completely relevant laws and regulations are the way, raising the ideological level of officials is the way, and advocating collective ideals while restricting individual behavior is the shortcut."

Yang Ming looked at him curiously, and said with a smile, "Sure, Kabu, you still have the potential to be a politician."

Edwan Kabuba raised his eyebrows: "How about it, isn't there something to be said for the annoying guy in your communication notes?"

"Yes, but not many."

Yang Ming shrugged and looked at the street ahead, with a faint smile on his lips.

So far, the plan is going well, and it seems that there will be no waves.

He said: "Even if we don't share the same dormitory, we can still communicate frequently."

"Of course," Edwan Kabuba smiled, "Don't worry, I will take good care of you, just like your biological brother."

Several black lines hung on Yang Ming's forehead instantly.

Does he want Li to interfere with the result of the next dormitory?

Forget it, this guy really helped me a lot.

Yang Ming closed his eyes, and a line of small characters flashed before his eyes.

【everything is normal】.

...

"Uh, Lil, is everything really normal now?"

The thinking space of laws, the flow of time is synchronized with the corners of the surface of the city of light.

Molly, who was watching the message sent by Li, pointed to the message that slowly popped up in the stream of information on the side.

"It seems that something big is going to happen on the Emperor Star, haven't you seen it?"

"Of course I saw it," said the law indifferently, "but this situation was deduced by me and the boss before, so it's not a big deal."

"But!"

Molly's face was slightly puzzled:

"The Imperial Army mobilized more than 6,000 state-of-the-art warships, approaching the defense area of ​​the Imperial Star Defense Fleet.

"This is an extremely dangerous move. It is clear that it is going to overthrow the old emperor!"

"What overthrows the old emperor?" Lu looked disgusted. "How could you come to such an absurd conclusion? This is clearly the conservative faction in power of the Sherman family elite, who wants to encircle and suppress the young faction of the Sherman family elite in power."

"Uh, young men, those old men can also be called young men, human beings are amazing."

"It depends on who you compare with."

Law laughed and said, "General Thomas, who has the best relationship with the boss, is a member of the Young and Strong faction, and now he is also under temporary surveillance."

"Then, if the conservatives and the young are fighting, who will win?"

"Shouldn't be able to fight."

Li folded his arms and carefully analyzed:

"The current military threats can actually be seen as political pressure from the conservative faction headed by the four veterans of the military.

"Conservatives should have a talk with Director Ino, but many of these conservatives have decayed bodies and only their minds remain, so they are actually very afraid of Director Ino, who is destined to take their place.

"This political struggle within the empire, although we have foreseen it, can't do much.

"Unless the boss is still active in the range of the Emperor Star as a white ghost... In addition, their internal fighting is a good thing for us. We only need to guard against Levi's awakening."

Molly was a little nervous: "Then, will Levi wake up?"

"There is a possibility, but the probability is very low."

Law explained:

"After the boss entered the City of Light, I finally read some core data about Levi and Li. These data show that... Levi is on the verge of collapse at any time, so the core area where he is located needs to increase the time flow rate. A hundred times slower.

"In the virtual world, with the same computing unit, the amount of calculation required for the same degree of time acceleration and time deceleration is two orders of magnitude different.

"The only thing I can't figure out now is the specific relationship between Li and Levi. It seems difficult to tell whether Li wants to be free and resist Levi, or whether he wants to be free and liberate Levi.

"Life and destruction seem to go hand in hand."

Molly blinked, she was a little confused.

"Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with us, right!"

"Well," Lu said with a smile, "I'm ready for the Luofeng Alliance to face the battle in an all-round way, and the Terminator is also on standby at any time, and the main force on Captain Catherine's side has always been useless, and I'm waiting for this matter to come to an end. "

"What's the difference?"

"Of course there is!"

Law looked a little more confident:

"If the young faction wins this time, then we will kill the possibility of the empire's recovery, and I will launch a full-scale attack within the empire.

"If the Young Boys lose, let the Conservatives stay in power, they will put the Empire in the coffin with their own hands and put a few screws in the coffin.

"We can proceed step by step, wait for the boss to finish here, let the boss come to bury the empire, and give the boss a sense of ceremony."

Molly: ...

"Well, number two, you have too many eyes."

"Sister Lu! No big or small!"

Lil shook his head, then continued to stare at the screen in front of him.

...

Sherman Empire, Emperor Star, normal time flow rate.

The beautiful Princess Daphne was lying on the chair behind the desk, breathing evenly, and fell asleep.

The maids carefully placed sleep aids around to block out the surrounding sounds, hoping that the tired Princess could sleep for a longer period of time.

But the efforts of the maids were quickly wiped out when the communication bell rang.

Daphne immediately opened her eyes, with a little bloodshot eyes, picked up the communicator on the table, and clicked on the communication button.

The bust of Director Ino appeared in front of Daphne.

"Daphne," Director Ino said, "tell those around you to leave."

"Good uncle."

Daphne immediately agreed, got up and walked to the door, locked the door, and pressed a few buttons on the wall to activate the shielding device in the desk area.

She sat back in the chair, took out a refreshing potion from the drawer, and stuffed it into her mouth.

Spirits began to soar rapidly.

"Thank you for your hard work, this time."

Director Ino showed a gentle smile: "You did a good job, Daphne."

"For the sake of the empire and the family," Daphne sighed helplessly, "I have almost done what my uncle told me, but my father chose to ignore the current situation."

"Don't have any hope for him," Yinuo said indifferently, "he will help whoever wins, and then continue to be his own great emperor, leaving more of his footprints in the history books."

Daphne nodded.

She was like a student who was listening to the class seriously, with her arms folded and pressed against the edge of the desk.

"Then uncle, what else can we do next?

"I have some bad premonitions, the meeting you held earlier made our ancestors very angry.

"They may take some extreme measures against us."

"My side is basically ready," Ino's face gradually became a little gloomy, "someone must stand up to take responsibility for the failure of the Battle of Xie Luo, and the anger of the people of the empire must also find a real focus , the next step is to do this, and I will start to act as soon as possible."

Daphne was a little puzzled: "As soon as possible?"

"Just today!"

Director Ino's gaze is like a falcon.

Daphne was shocked: "Uncle, are you a little too anxious?"

"It's really urgent, but we have to preemptively strike," Director Ino said, "Your premonition is correct, the four elders of the military department are mobilizing the fleet, probably two battle groups are already heading towards the Emperor Star, the Emperor Star Defense Force The six generals have now been targeted by snipers and may be killed by them at any time."

Daphne was silent for half a minute.

She asked in a low voice: "What are they going to do? Are they going to attack us directly?"

"They want to make sure that Emperor Star is under their control."

Director Ino shook his head:

"Your Majesty's indifference gave them the convenience of being king, and similarly, it also gave us convenience.

"For us to split from that table has become the enemy of that table, they will do whatever it takes, and they want us to be the sinners of history.

"Daphne, we don't have much time left."

Daphne asked, "But when did they start preparing?"

"After I opened up the second round table."

Director Ino laughed and said slowly:

"Don't worry, Daphne.

"My plan was earlier than theirs, and I had already started preparing after I lost the second battle with Luofeng.

"Now, the inside and outside of the Emperor Star are under our control, and there are many of our people in the military headquarters. We must fight together, so that this force can gather and become a flood that washes away their dams."

Daphne put her hand on her forehead, and she whispered, "Uncle, do I have any tasks?"

"You have a mission now."

Director Ino's gaze was very firm, and his words became more powerful, powerful and clear:

"The Tentacle Organization has a part of its combat power. The most variable right now is the Elder's House and the headquarters of the Imperial Army in Emperor Star. Which side do you want to control?"

Daphne thought carefully: "The elders' house."

"Okay, now you can mobilize the combat agents of the Tentacle Organization."

Director Ino said in a deep voice:

"I will give you the signal to act later, and if all goes well, we will complete the change of power in the Empire within six galactic hours.

"The Corrupt will eventually be buried by time and space.

"The empire will add a new law to prohibit members of the Sherman family from uploading consciousness to the virtual world, so as to ensure that the empire's power change cycle is shorter, and all of this will start from my generation.

"Daphne, you will have a heavy burden in the future, but these are things for later."

"I understand, Uncle." Daphne took a slight breath, "I need about fifteen minutes, and the tentacles organize all combat units to obey your orders."

Director Ino said: "Make preparations first, and try to be as relaxed as possible. I believe you can handle these well."

"Understood."

Daphne stood up and exhaled softly.

The game has begun.
