The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 389: The Rebellious Warship

When the fourth lady saw Ergou's figure, her jaw dropped with shock.

She really wanted to ask Ergou how he survived.

But at least she hadn't completely lost her mind. She suppressed her curiosity and shouted in surprise, "Fortunately, my husband is still alive!"

Er Gou looked up at the Fourth Lady standing on the shoulders of the goddess statue several dozen meters high, but asked with a fake smile, "Why do you think I might be dead?"

The fourth lady replied with an apologetic look on her face, "When I was young, I heard from the elders of the clan that anyone who used the Phoenix Staff to repair his home would end up dying. At that time, I thought the elders were just joking, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that I was too ignorant and almost harmed my husband!"

Er Gou's face darkened at first, but then he smiled warmly and said loudly, "I see! It's not your fault!"

Ergou paused for a moment, but then deliberately asked a question he already knew the answer to. He asked loudly, "Now that the activation of the altar on Luhua Star has been completed, I wonder if there are any other issues?"

The fourth lady waved to Ergou, signaling him to climb onto the shoulders of the statue.

Ergou first took out the phoenix scepter embedded in the altar, then smoothed his clothes, climbed up the folds on the surface of the statue, and jumped onto the shoulder of the statue.

The fourth lady came closer, opened her arms and hugged Er Gou, shedding tears and said, "My husband, I really didn't mean to hurt you! If you are angry and want to kill me, I won't complain at all!"

When Ergou was suddenly hugged by the Fourth Lady, he almost couldn't help jumping up. When he found that she had no ill intentions, Ergou loosened his grip on the scepter. He almost stabbed her with the stick.

However, Ergou still did not dare to relax. He just relaxed his tense body, raised his hand and gently patted Si Niangzi's shoulder, but said in a somewhat reluctant way: "Si... Madam, don't worry! As the saying goes, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God. I am in a difficult position now, and I have survived a near-death experience. If we are not together, it is fate! I really don't blame you!"

The fourth lady let go of Er Gou, but burst into laughter and said, "Hearing your magnanimous words, I will be at peace even if I die!"

She wiped the corners of her eyes gently, and then said: "Things here are done, but it's not over yet. We still have to go to Yujian Star!"

Ergou had already learned the inside story from Aisha, but he pretended not to know and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Why do you want to go to Yujianxing?"

The fourth lady did not doubt it, and just smiled and explained: "Although the Lishan Flower Garden has activated the recovery program, it will take tens of thousands of years for the Lishan Flower Garden to fully restore its ecosystem by relying on its natural development.

The ancestors of the celestial beings once established a permanent ecological gene pedigree map on Yujian Star. If this pedigree map can be used to assist in the restoration of Lishan Garden, within ten years, Lishan Garden will be able to evolve into a relatively stable primary ecosystem. "

Er Gou said with a look of sudden realization: "What the Fourth Lady said is absolutely right! Without a good ecosystem, the restoration of the Lishan main star cannot be successful! However, the distance between Yujian Star and Luhua Star is more than ten thousand miles, and there is also a natural barrier. How can we get there?"

The fourth lady smiled and said, "This is not difficult. The giant under our feet has the ability to teleport over short distances. We can use it to reach the high-altitude orbit above our heads, where a Void-class battleship is parked. We can then take the battleship to reach Yujian Star."

Er Gou clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Fourth Lady is so thorough in her planning. I really admire her!"

The fourth lady smiled as if flattered.

Then the two of them entered the interior of the statue through its open mouth along a downward staircase corridor.

When Ergou entered the inner cavity, he found that the interior of the statue was surprisingly simple, with walls as smooth as eggshells. There were two egg-shaped cavities with an inner diameter of about three meters in the chest and abdomen of the statue, which were filled with a liquid similar to amniotic fluid but slightly more viscous.

The fourth lady briefly introduced the situation to Ergou.

This giant statue of the goddess, called "Giant Spirit" by Si Niangzi, is a terrifying war machine. Its material is neither marble as Ergou had previously believed, nor steel. Instead, it is made entirely of precious holy bones of celestial beings.

The Colossus' driving mode is a mind-link mode similar to thought control.

The two egg-shaped cavities are the cockpit of this colossus.

When the driver is inside, he is surrounded by a liquid similar to amniotic fluid, creating a feeling of a fetus in the mother's body. His mind is connected to the control core of the colossus, and the driver can control the colossus to walk and jump as freely as controlling his own body.

Basically, the Colossus can perform all the physical movements that the driver can do synchronously.

This means that this super machine can be as agile as a small person when moving.

However, due to the huge size of the Colossus, the operation of the Colossus will place an extremely heavy burden on the driver's mind.

This means that the driver has to spend most of his energy just to control the Colossus's movement, but is unable to take into account other things, such as the Colossus's arsenal system.

This is also the reason why the Colossus' cockpit has two cabins. It needs to carry another weapon master to form real combat power.

While this operating mode gives the Colossus unparalleled combat power, it also causes another more fatal flaw, which is the endurance of the Colossus' high-frequency combat power.

The key to this weakness is not a problem with the Colossus's configuration or energy, but the Colossus's driver himself.

When the driver is full of energy, the Colossus is a killing god on the battlefield, unparalleled in attack and invincible.

However, when the Colossus driver is mentally exhausted due to long-term driving (fighting), the Colossus will fall into an idling state, and its combat effectiveness will inevitably drop to a low point.

It would be fine if the Colossus in this state was just dealing with a mob, but if it encountered an opponent that was powerful enough to fight it even in its prime, the Colossus's fate would be more worrying.

Of course, even though the Colossus has this flaw, it is undeniable that it is indeed the absolute king on the ground battlefield.

It is even frankly true to say that apart from the overly advanced Genesis system, the most valuable legacy of the entire Yuelu Castle is this colossus.

As a noble lady of the celestial race, the fourth lady naturally became the driver of this giant statue without any hesitation.

She stripped herself almost completely, then jumped naked into one of the egg-shaped cabins, and floated in the amniotic fluid in a very relaxed posture.

Seeing this, Ergou followed suit and jumped naked into another egg-shaped cabin.

The liquid, as sticky as glue, instantly covered Ergou's entire body, but did not penetrate into his mouth and nose. Then Ergou found that he could breathe freely without any effort.

This feeling of seemingly drowning but not being able to breathe was very special, and gave him an inexplicable sense of peace.

Just as Ergou was about to fall asleep, a child-like consciousness rang in his mind: "What is this? Huh? How dare a lowly upright ape enter the sacred giant spirit?!"

Ergou suddenly woke up, and before he could say anything, another familiar thought sounded in his mind: "My deceased ancestors, please don't be angry. This human is an ally of my elves. He has made great contributions to the revival of the Lishan Flower Garden!..." Ergou knew very well that the second thought was the fourth lady. She said a lot of good things about him and praised how important Ergou was to the revival of the Adari clan.

Finally, the child-like thought said: "Although this upright ape is very important to the Eldar, he can stay inside the giant for a while, but I will never allow him to access the core of the arsenal!"

In the end, Ergou could only stay in the egg-shaped cabin to sleep, and was unable to use the Colossus's perception system to observe the environment outside the Colossus.

Naturally, he could not see that the giant statue, with a body of more than 40 meters, could walk out of the Moondew Fortress as flexibly as a two-meter-tall humanoid creature.

At this time, the surface of Luhua Star was covered with a layer of corpse ashes more than ten meters thick. These corpse ashes were like the finest charcoal powder, soft, delicate, and as fluid as running water.

When the wind blows, dust fills the sky and seems to be boundless.

The colossus walked on the ground like a man wading in knee-deep black water.

This is no longer an environment suitable for normal creatures to survive, and the driver of the Colossus has no intention of staying here.

When the colossus moved a certain distance away from the Moondew Fortress, a crystal-like object embedded in the center of its forehead began to radiate light.

Then the colossus turned into a streak of white light and disappeared. The surrounding corpse ashes instantly filled the gap left by its disappearance, covering up all traces.

When the colossus was moving and even jumping and teleporting, Ergou had no sense that he was moving at all until a strange impact force was applied to his body, and then he seemed to realize something.

It was a feeling similar to that of Miss Qingzhao hitting his chest with her little fist, gentle and weak.

As for why I didn't use Si Niangzi's fist to describe it, can the feeling of hitting someone with a sledgehammer be the same as hitting someone with a cotton pillow? !
This light impact acted on Ergou almost continuously until a feeling of breaking through the barrier was applied to him, and all the impact disappeared.

After a long while, Ergou was finally awakened by the Fourth Lady.

When Ergou left the oval cabin, he found that the amniotic fluid in the cabin did not touch his body at all. Even if some droplets were taken out of the oval cabin, they would automatically return to the cabin like a tired bird returning to its nest.

This saved Ergou the trouble of washing himself, and they both put on their clothes.

Ergou followed Si Niangzi out of the colossus. When he stood on the shoulder of the colossus, he found that he and the colossus were inside a super huge building.

The building is so spacious and its dome is high enough for ten colossi to stand on top of each other.

The width of the building is also extremely impressive, at least ten times its height.

Of course, Ergou could tell where they were without the Fourth Lady’s introduction.

Because through the tear in the outer wall of the building behind the colossus, Ergou could clearly see the almost stationary Luhua Star.

They were inside a super-large battleship or artificial celestial body in high-altitude orbit around the planet Luhua.

Then the fourth lady's explanation confirmed Ergou's guess.

They were indeed in the parking area inside the [Blue Pearl], the flagship of the Luhua Star Outer Space Support Fleet, which had been silent for tens of thousands of years.

Due to unknown reasons (at least the Fourth Lady didn't know), the automatic protection system of the Azure Pearl, which had been stagnant in high-altitude orbit for tens of thousands of years, regarded the Colossus driven by the Fourth Lady as a hostile target and used light spear weapons to attack the Colossus.

The feeling that Ergou felt in the egg-shaped cabin of the Colossus was similar to that of Miss Qingzhao pounding her chest with her fists. In fact, it was the aftermath of the battleship's light spear weapon hitting the Colossus and then fed back to the driver.

Although there was no support from the arsenal system, the fourth lady resolutely drove the Colossus against the light spear bombardment of the battleship, and used brute force to tear open the outer wall of the battleship and break into it.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that the battleship has no real combat commander to command and control it. Otherwise, a celestial giant specializing in ground combat would never be able to break through the battleship's anti-boarding defense system.

After giving Ergou a brief explanation of the current situation, Si Niangzi still had many doubts that were difficult to resolve.

The support fleet back then was not just the Azure Pearl, there were nearly a hundred large and small cruisers, frigates, and reconnaissance ships. Now the flagship Azure Pearl is still there, where are the other warships?

Then there was the question of why the [Azure Pearl] could not recognize the command code provided by the Fourth Lady, but instead attacked her as an enemy. All of this was like a shadow hanging over the Fourth Lady.

The fourth lady was confused, but Ergou knew some of the inside story.

After Ergou saw through his disguise, the phantom demon messenger Galilius revealed many secrets to Ergou as a token of his allegiance.

For example, how it devoured the entire support fleet bit by bit, and transformed all the warships except the flagship into super colossi, which were then deployed to the surface of Luhua Star to create chaos for the Plague Legion.

Of course, there is also a little secret gift, which is also a "generous gift" from Galileo.

Originally, Ergou thought that this secret was not very important, because he did not think he had a chance to reach the high-altitude orbit of Luhua Star and be lucky enough to enter the space battleship that was tens of thousands of years old.

But now Ergou discovered that that little secret had become a hundred times more valuable.

Because he was now standing on the ship's anchor deck inside the Azure Pearl.

[Azure Pearl] is a Void-class battleship of the Aidari. To be precise, it is not a real warship of the Aidari.

The original intention of its manufacture was mainly to serve as the flagship of the patrol fleet for maintaining security and stability in the inner circle of the Aidari Star Sea Empire.

To put it simply, this thing is the patrol car (boat) of the Aidari Star Sea Empire's public security police.

Even so, no one can deny the power of the Aidari Void-class battleship.

After the great destruction, the only starry sea creations that the celestial beings could show off were some kind of super artificial celestial body called "The Ark of the Other Shore", and the best of all, the Void-class battleship like the "Azure Pearl".

The Fourth Lady definitely had great expectations of getting an extra battleship.

But what made her uneasy was that the intelligent control system or machine soul of the [Azure Pearl] seemed to be unfriendly to her.
