The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 390 Sorry! I am still more charming

Feeling something was wrong, the fourth lady immediately begged Ergou to accompany her to the bridge of the [Azure Pearl] to investigate what had happened to the battleship.

Ergou deliberately hesitated for a moment before agreeing "readily".

Then the fourth lady found two strangely shaped bone-like sticks from somewhere and handed one of them to Ergou.

Ergou took the stick, but saw that its main body was a slightly flat and slender cavity, about two feet long, with a tube about half a foot long on the top, similar to a sight.

There is a detachable handle at the end of the cavity, and there is also a hollow cavity inside it that can accommodate a multi-layered crystal.

The fourth lady instructed Ergou to aim the front end of the stick at the target, grasp the handle and inject spiritual energy, and a beam of light with extremely strong lethality will shoot out from the flat mouth of the stick.

Ergou tried it a few times and quickly grasped the characteristics of this future high-tech weapon.

This weapon, called a "star dart", has many advantages.

For example, it has almost no recoil, and anyone with psionic talents can use it.

Secondly, the ammunition of the star dart is a special multi-layer crystal. Each layer of the crystal is a round of ammunition, and the thickness of this crystal is at the molecular (nano) level.

When psychic energy is injected into the star dart and the built-in psychic energy circuit is activated, the single-molecule-level chip will be transformed into a particle stream and emitted.

How many shots a standard crystal magazine can sustain depends entirely on how many molecular layers the crystal itself can be divided into (this value is estimated to be measured in units of "a small target").

From this point of view, the Shuriken can be considered a legendary weapon with unlimited ammunition.

But the problem is that this thing was once the standard self-defense weapon of the Ada Swiss soldiers, the predecessor of Tianren.

After talking about ammunition, let’s talk about the lethality of darts.

According to Si Niangzi, the particle stream fired by the dart actually flies at sub-light speed. When the particle stream is fired, there is basically no possibility for the target it is aimed at to dodge, unless you can avoid the trajectory before the particle stream is launched.

The particle stream flying at sub-light speed has great impact force and penetration, which means that this thing has both the physical damage brought by kinetic solid bullets (especially armor-piercing ability) and the characteristics of energy-type killing. Its comprehensive killing power is so strong that Ergou estimates that the so-called fifth-generation main battle tanks in his previous life could definitely be killed by the Star Darts with one shot, turning them into large-molecular garbage debris.

That’s right! The lethality of the Star Dart is just that amazing.

Holding this thing, Ergou even had an impulsive feeling of "with a gun in hand, the world is mine".

Afterwards, Ergou held the star dart like those movie-level soldiers in his previous life holding Aka-47, and followed the fourth lady along the deck corridor of the Azure Pearl.

The road ahead is unknown and dangerous, so they are cautious and careful.

But all their efforts were in vain.

Because every place, every cabin, every corridor, and every level the two explored was empty.

There were no enemies, no danger, no anomalies, and even the battleship's own internal defense system ignored the two.

However, this overly smooth situation was the biggest abnormality in the eyes of the Fourth Lady.

To this, Ergou could only say "hehe" in his heart.

Yes, Ergou knows what is going on.

Even the silence was partly his doing.

Tens of thousands of years ago, all the crew members of the entire support fleet, from the lowest deck workers to the highest captains, without exception, reached the end of their lives.

Of course, these members include both the lucky ones who died of natural causes and some powerful Aidari who have broken through the limits of their lifespans and possess the capital for immortality, but they are forcibly reincarnated by the transformed evil demons who come to offer their warmth.

After Galileos destroyed the entire support fleet, he carried out special modifications on all the warships of the support fleet in order to get involved in the surface battle on the planet Luhua.

Unlike other battleships that were transformed into surface war machines and deployed to Luhua, the Azure Pearl was transformed by Galileo into a unique semi-demon AI battleship.

As long as he has the special key provided by Galileos, Ergou can give orders to the battleship's AI (half-demon machine soul) from anywhere inside the battleship.

Of course, he didn't have much confidence whether the machine soul of the "Azure Pearl" would fully execute Ergou's orders.

I think it is inevitable that one will pretend to obey but actually disobey.

As a result, as the two got closer to the bridge, the fourth lady's face became more and more gloomy, which meant that the pressure in her heart had reached its limit.

Ergou was in a very good mood, because the battleship's spirit really cooperated with him, without any sign of disobedience.

This means that Ergou has a great chance of taking this extremely precious top-level Tianren battleship into his possession.

Which man with dreams would not want to get his hands on this kind of life-size super-sized figure?

What? You asked Ergou what to do with the "Mrs. Niu" that he had been trying to capture for years?
There is no way! The Iron Princess who still lives in the subspace is born with "contagious obesity". Ergou has been trying for four years but still cannot save her from the mire.

In fact, for Ergou, the road to redemption of Mrs. Niu, the Iron Lady, has fallen into a paradox.

First of all, if Ergou only relied on his ordinary attacks to kill the enemy alone, he would never be able to completely "redeem" "Mrs. Niu" even if he struggled for another ten thousand years.

The reason is simple. After four years of development, Ergou's purification speed of the chaotic mutation of the civilization relic warship has formed a balance with the corruption speed of the purification area inside the warship.

No matter how many new purification areas Ergou clears, a corresponding number of old purification areas will be corrupted.

In other words, Ergou created a safe zone on the corrupted battleship, but he was unable to expand this safe zone.

In recent years, Er Gou has been hiding in Xiangzhou to cultivate the high-end combat power of Siming Mansion. To put it bluntly, it is to train helpers for himself and prepare for the next step of expanding the purification area of ​​"Mrs. Niu·Little Sweetie·Iron Princess".

Of course, there are ways to quickly purify Lady Cow, Iron Lady.

As long as the princess takes a walk on the warship, all the demons and monsters will shout "Sayunnara".

The problem is that Diji cannot enter the subspace.

However, Iron Lady, who suffers from "contagious obesity", cannot come to the real world unless she eliminates the lesion first.

The "doctor who cures the disease" cannot go, and the "sick Iron Lady" cannot come out, so both efforts are unsuccessful.

Of course, even if Iron Lady is hard to redeem, Ergou has still gained countless benefits from the former "Sweetheart" in the past few years. But now that "True Love" is about to come, the real Mrs. Niu can only stand aside for the time being.

However, even though Ergou was very happy at this moment, he did not dare to show it. He also put on a solemn expression and accompanied the Fourth Lady all the way.

They walked for more than seventy kilometers in the corridors of the battleship, passing through countless forks and checkpoints, but finally arrived at the bridge area of ​​the [Azure Pearl].

In fact, the total length of the entire battleship is no more than a dozen kilometers at most (including the deployed solar sail), and the shortest path from the parking area to the bridge is only 7.4 kilometers.

The reason why the two took such a long detour was entirely because the fourth lady was under too much psychological pressure. She was fighting wits and courage with the air in her mind, and she deliberately took detours and side roads countless times, trying to surprise her "opponent".

Little did she know that her so-called "opponent" was right beside her, watching her performance with a smile on his face.

However, Ergou was happy to see the result of taking such a detour, as he could just enjoy the internal "decoration" of his future real-size action figure.

Even someone as knowledgeable as Ergou had to admit that Adari's creations were definitely an example of the perfect combination of artistry and practicality.

Ergou was very satisfied with the tour.

It was not until the two men entered the bridge that Ergou and Si Niangzi became angry.

The bridge of the Azure Pearl is a dome-shaped room with many cockpits similar to the oval cabins within the Colossus.

From those one-sided transparent dome windows, the personnel inside can observe the starry sky around the battleship with the naked eye.

Through those oval cabins, the pilot can observe the detection data from the warship's detection system with his mind.

However, these driving positions, which once required multiple Eldari crew members to operate perfectly, were specially modified by the phantom messenger Galilos tens of thousands of years ago.

They no longer require multiple drivers, but are replaced by specially modified mutant machines.

These mutant machines resemble birds with eyes all over their bodies, and are connected together by a folded thing similar to a scroll.

The last and most conspicuous position is the captain's seat of the [Azure Pearl]. It is no longer an egg-shaped cabin, but a unique eyeball throne made of a bunch of eyeballs.

There is no doubt that any captain would be very majestic if he sat on the throne and commanded a warship.

Ergou thought that the evil demon’s decoration of the bridge was complete shit, so he was very angry.

The reason why the Fourth Lady was so angry was also very simple. The so-called eyeballs on all the evil creatures were actually soul stones unique to the Aidari clan.

Each soul stone here represents the spirit of a deceased Eldari hero.

The angry Fourth Lady smashed all the mutant machines with darts and destroyed the "Eyeball Throne".

She tested the soul stones scattered on the ground, but found that the souls of the Aidari originally contained in the soul stones seemed to have been devoured by some terrible existence, leaving only a few twisted soul remnants hiding in the soul stones, wailing madly.

The Fourth Lady was not unfamiliar with the situation of the soul stone. Those soul stones that fell into the hands of evil spirits, the souls living inside them would basically meet this tragic end.

She picked up the soul stones on the ground one by one, and then purified and sealed them using the unique method of the Eredar.

Her behavior angered the battleship's machine soul, and then an Aidari phantom covered with feathers and eyeballs appeared in the captain's seat on the bridge.

The half-demonized warship AI shouted hastily, "Stop! Future tribesmen! Please don't seal the soul stones. They are the basis for me to maintain my sanity!"

Proper Eldari creations do not have machine souls or AI.

Holy bone creations are equivalent to half a living being. The Aedari will embed soul stones containing the souls of heroes into the creations, using the souls of their past fellows as substitutes for AI.

Of course, the opposite can also be said.

Humanity's intelligent AI is an imitation and replacement of the soul inlays in the sacred bone creations of the Eldari.

The fourth lady looked at the strange shadow that suddenly appeared, took a step back and asked in surprise: "You...what are you?"

The half-corrupted machine soul showed a "kind" smile, but said: "My descendants, please don't look at me with different eyes. I was the captain of this battleship and the deputy commander of the fleet. I was born noble and have made outstanding achievements. Until my first mate betrayed me. That damn scum, the vicious slug! She overthrew my control of the fleet and made herself king.

The traitor who was cursed for a hundred thousand years led the entire support fleet into the abyss. I was the only one who fought hard to save this only flagship. She is my pride, my blue pearl! "

At this time, Ergou interrupted and said, "Excuse me, what use are these soul stones to you?"

The half-corrupted machine soul said: "While I was protecting the Azure Pearl, I was cursed by the terrible Phantom Demon Messenger, and my heroic spirit began to slowly corrupt. When I was about to despair, I accidentally discovered that those soul stones with only soul residue left could help me delay the corruption. If these soul stones are taken away and sealed, I will be corrupted quickly, and then the entire Azure Pearl will also fall completely."

Er Gou raised the Star Dart and nodded, "I see! This time I have learned something new."

The Fourth Lady sneered, "Evil disciple! Don't try to seduce me! Ugly things like you shouldn't exist in the sacred creations of the spirit race! Soul stones with only remnants of souls left can't protect against corruption! I'm afraid these soul stones are the source of corruption for you, an evil creature?!"

After saying that, the fourth lady continued to pick up the soul stones scattered on the ground.

The half-corrupted machine soul was furious. If it hadn't been for Ergou's secret obstruction, it would have dispatched some evil demons to assassinate the Fourth Lady.

There is indeed some truth in the fourth lady's actions.

As she purified and sealed those soul stones, the shadows of eyeballs and feathers on the machine soul gradually decreased.

When the last soul stone was purified and sealed, the once half-corrupted machine soul completely transformed into a tall, beautiful and heroic female captain.

The phantom was wearing a unique armor uniform. She said to the two happily, "Thank you! Future juniors! It is you who saved me from depravity and ignorance. I can't imagine how terrible it would be if I were to fall. Now please allow me to thank you! One of you can become the master of me and the [Azure Pearl]!"

The fourth lady looked at Er Gou with a slightly strange look, but asked, "What do you want to choose?"

The Machine Soul said, "Please tell me how you two would deal with me and the Azure Pearl if I approve of you?"

The fourth lady frowned, then said, "If I get you, I will take the [Blue Pearl] back to the other side of my tribe and ask the Great Prophet to purify you so that you can return to the essence of a heroic spirit."

The Machine Soul did not make any judgment after hearing this, but turned to Er Gou and asked, "What about you? Mortal, how will you deal with me?"

Ergou pretended to be dull and said: "I... I don't know! I don't even know you!"

When Ji Hun heard this, he actually laughed.
