My players are so fierce.

Chapter 1371 1369. What’s the saying about rotten chicken soup?

The explorers had a very tight time limit for their visit on the Harvest. It was impossible to see everything about such a large starship in one day. Even a quick tour was not that easy. Moreover, as a military organization, the Sentinel Corps also had confidentiality regulations, and many important locations were off-limits to mortals.

But this trip was not in vain.

In addition to confirming that the Sentinel Corps has indeed inherited the most black technology from the Creator and possesses the most advanced manufacturing standards in the universe, they also obtained the correct formula of the Origin Alloy from the forging sage here.

This was a real pleasant surprise.

Ever since the big guys came into contact with the Creator Technology, the biggest problem that has troubled everyone is definitely the pit of materials science. At present, the explorers have collected a lot of Creator Technology, and there are many complete drawings, but because they have not been able to replicate the unique basic material of Origin Alloy, many imitations do not meet the standards.

Now that the production channels of Origin Alloy are finally open, it means that the big guys can finally get rid of material restrictions when replicating the Creator's technology.

Looking further ahead, if we start mass-producing the basic version of Origin Alloy now, by the time Murphy leads his men into the final battle at the Heart of the World, each player will at least have a combat exoskeleton, and things like power armor can finally be manufactured without having to make do with Halfling Alloy.

The hardness and melting point of that thing did not meet the standards, resulting in the prototype of the power armor being able to at most participate in disputes between mortals, but not be able to get close to extraordinary creatures.

But the Forging Sage has also made it very clear.

This formula is only a tutorial for smelting the most basic Origin Alloy. The advanced variant materials that extend beyond that cannot be given. Currently, the number of special Origin Alloys on the Lady of Plenty has exceeded fifty-seven, and these are all confidential information of the Sentinel Corps.

The bosses expressed their understanding of this.

They are open-minded and believe that with the basic materials they can figure out the smelting formula of special alloys through continuous experimentation.

More importantly, the production of this origin alloy requires huge amounts of energy. In the material world, only the Songhai Empire and the ancient kingdom of Kalem can meet the production conditions. But on the other hand, doesn't this thing require a nuclear power plant?
The exploration of the origin alloy in the real world can therefore be put on the agenda.

This was the most exciting news for the bosses. This gain alone was enough to make them cheer. However, although the bosses "hid" deeply, Maxim and Bonnie still discovered something wrong when they left.

Lord Ma was blocked by two high-ranking vampires in a rest room on the Lady of Plenty. Maxim was not polite and asked very seriously:

"Seven of the people who came here today are people I have never seen before. They don't have the same scholarly aura as you do. When they visited, they didn't pay much attention to the advanced technology. Instead, they were very interested in the structure of the Sentinel Corps. They also talked a lot with the Forging Sage about the future civilization system.
Who are those people?

"Haha, this is the new guy on our side."

Lord Ma laughed it off and tried to hide it, but Bonnie stared at him with narrowed eyes. After a few minutes of being stared at with a very intimidating look by the Grand Duke's personal guards, Old Ma could not bear it anymore.

Especially after seeing the message "The Blood Eagle Clan's reputation has declined due to concealment" on the UI, he immediately waved his hand and said:

"They are indeed newcomers. I am not lying to you. However, they are not scholars, but leaders. It is just a coincidence that our top leader has just passed the suggestion submitted by Lao Qin before he left. He entered the game through a special helmet and wanted to inspect our research results here.

As a result, before they had finished their tour on the Shadow Chaser, Lord Murphy sent the news that they could tour the starship, so the big guys came along.

Actually, we discussed this before we set off, and everyone agreed that it was not a bad thing.

Leaders may not be as good as them in the professional field, but once they, who are in charge of resource allocation, truly see the scientific and technological value here, we can do a better job in the real world.”

Maxim and Bonnie looked at each other.

The two men nodded and took a step back to make way, which was considered as their agreement with what Lord Ma said.

However, Mark still reported the matter to Murphy in front of Lao Ma, and Murphy sent the message back a few seconds later.

"The master wants to invite several otherworld leaders to visit the Scarlet Castle and have a meeting with our Scarlet Archon. He hopes that Miriam and the Archon Group can learn some valuable experience from the otherworld leaders."

Maxim said sincerely:

"After all, I know that you are a huge country with billions of people. I personally cannot imagine how such a political system can exist. Previous exchanges were limited to technology and military. This can be regarded as the first conversation between politicians. It is very important to us."

"Well, I'll go and make a report. It may not work. After all, the bosses have a full schedule every day."

Lao Ma scratched his head, didn't say anything definite, and ran to report it. As a result, the matter really happened. So under the personal escort of Maxim and Bonnie, the explorers returned to the material world through Tritan.

Murphy didn't go back with them, he was very busy at the moment.

In the bridge of the Harvest, several Sentinel Primarchs were waiting for him. The scene looked like a trial by three judges, but in fact, from their expressions, it could be seen that they were here to give Murphy an explanation.

After all, the Sentinels are pure beings who are not very good at concealing their mood changes. The depressed looks on the faces of these Sentinel Primarchs are very similar to the expressions on the faces of those girls after being criticized by their strict fathers.

Well, it seems that the Creator really didn't give any face to his daughters of steel who almost caused the Holy Terra to fail.

"So, how did your conversation with the Creator turn out?"

Murphy stood in the metal ring of the bridge. He looked at several Primarchs. In response to his question, Chief Centurion Erza sighed and said:
"Father expressed His disappointment. As you said, Father couldn't understand why we had been standing still for a thousand years. After learning that we had taken measures to clean up and rectify the situation to maintain this original system, He almost cursed.

Obviously, my father believed that the more vivid emotions given to us by the warp were not redundant, and that He left in a hurry and failed to leave proper instructions, which led us into the trap of fundamentalist doctrine.

However, He still highly praised the Sentinel Corps for their wars and efforts over the past thousand years. He praised us as the bravest daughters. This praise alone was enough to soothe the intellectual sparks of all the Sentinels. "

"It seems that He is quite good at discussing things based on facts."

Murphy curled his lips in a rather frivolous manner. This casual comment on the Creator naturally earned him the glares of all the Primarchs. However, soon, the "Forger" Fendil beside Erza took the initiative to change the subject.

The tall Primarch, wearing a metal battle skirt, a strange horned helmet, and holding a forging hammer in his hand, said in a loud voice:
"The Great Father asked us to express His goodwill to you. He praised you for having completed your work as an Alpha perfectly."

"Well, Your Excellency, you don't have to be like this. I actually know your father's usual speaking style, so there is no need to hide things for Him. I know He has opinions about me, but I cannot ignore the fact that I did not follow His design but still made it to where I am now."

Murphy said calmly:

"He certainly wouldn't describe me as 'perfect', so let's skip the veiled rhetoric and get down to business. Did He tell us what to do next?"

"not at all!"

Lady Fendil pushed her horned helmet and shook her head.
“Father admits that the original grand blueprint was designed too hastily and ignored various variables, leading to the current situation. He believes that only those of us who are in the game are qualified to make decisions in the current situation, so we invited you here to discuss the next course of action.

First, the Sentinels have no intention of entering the material world.

For us, the current material world is still too weak, just like a glass house, and it cannot withstand the ravages of even the lowest level firepower of the Sentinel Hunting Patrol. Therefore, we decided to find a new base for the Sentinel Corps in the Broken Star Realm.

Just like the astral behemoth that Lady Gaia is currently building, a permanent fortification would be built here to house the Sentinel manufacturing and logistics departments.

This work will be done by me and the forge ship Lady of Plenty!

We noticed that you have many connections in the Astral Realm, so we hope to entrust you to be the middleman between the Sentinel Corps and the various forces in the Astral Realm."

"I am very honored and have a suggestion for you." Murphy made a gentlemanly gesture and explained:

“As you can see, the current astral world is dead.

It is difficult and unnecessary to select logistical areas in such a plane, but I have a star seed in my hand, which I have soaked in the World Furnace of the Creation Engine, and it has now completed the energy resonance with the World Furnace.

I plan to choose a suitable time in the future to plant it in the astral realm. In this way, by reviving the astral tree, I can reshape the appearance of the entire shattered astral realm.

I invite the Sentinel Corps to join, so that you can be bound to the origin of the Star Realm, making you true "citizens of the Star Realm". Then the resources of the entire Star Realm can be used by you, making this new world the home and true base camp of the Sentinel Corps.

You will no longer be a tree without roots or water without a source. You will also participate in the growth of the Order camp and the war against Chaos as participants.

You will no longer be soldiers, but you will no longer consider yourselves as tools. Hmm?
Why do you guys have such strange expressions?

Did I say something wrong?

He looked at the Sentinel Primarchs in front of him in surprise. He saw the same emotion on the faces of these mechanical sisters with different faces, body shapes and styles.

It was a strange expression that contained a hint of shock, confusion, but also relief and helplessness.

In response to Murphy's question, the captain Erza flexed her fingers, stared at him, and said:
"We were shocked because my father had just said something similar.
Father said that we were too arrogant, and because we were the daughters of the Creator, we looked down on everything in the world and were unwilling to put ourselves on the same level as all other creatures. He said that our "incompatibility" was the biggest obstacle that prevented the Sentinels from growing from a group to a civilization.

He advises us to humble ourselves, integrate into the epic of the development of this world, become a pioneer instead of stubbornly wanting to return to the old times.

I have to say, you are worthy of being the Alpha chosen by my father himself. You and Him really have a lot in common."

"I'm curious, Alpha."

Ms. Hetis, the "Fanatical" and one of the "Quiet Twins" on Ms. Fendil's left, stared at Murphy. The "tattooed elder sister" whose face was covered with runes and emblems praising the Creator asked seriously:

"Can you explain to us from your perspective what kind of existence the Great Father wants the Sentinel Corps to become? To be honest, I and other sisters have argued about this issue for a long time, but none of us can convince each other.

Our Father has given us the power of choice, but we have no idea how to use it.

We have always been proud of being our father's tools, but his expectations of us are much more than that.

we
I don’t want to disappoint Him again.”

Murphy did not answer immediately. He looked around at the five Sentinel Primarchs present before him, and then said:

"I wanted to start with an old, stale chicken soup story, to give you a metaphor to describe the painstaking efforts that the Creator has given you, but I think you may not be able to understand some of the emotional concepts, so I'd better speak directly.

The Creator created you to be sentinels for the material world, the astral world, and all living things to resist the forces of chaos, and to be soldiers to protect the world.

Yet He did not tell you why He did this.

You have found a reason for yourself, believing that this is the value and meaning of your existence, and have taken this explanation of shooting the arrow first and then drawing the target as your guiding principle.

Yet the truth is, the Creator did not create this world just for us, Sentinels.

It belongs to you just as much.

In fact, when I was talking with Ms. Flinders, I could feel that although she didn't say it out loud, she actually had resentment towards the Creator in her heart. I guess it's not just her, many Sentinels who had been executed had similar doubts.

If you are really the Creator's favorite daughters, why didn't the Creator take you with him when he left?

No need to explain, I don't need an answer, I think you must have an answer in your heart.

Based on my understanding of the Creator, He left you here not because He didn't care about you, but most likely because He suddenly withdrew and what he was about to do was very dangerous, and he couldn't take you along because you were not strong enough at the time.

This is a cradle, a swaddling cloth, a habitat and ecological park used by the Creator to revive civilizations that died in the mass extinction.

This is where civilization began.

In this case, it can also be your starting point.

The Sentinels were born from steel, but you don't know where you came from or where you are going, so He left you here, hoping that you will protect this place while watching the growth of this world for Him, and eventually accept this world as your home.

Eventually, you, the 'Daughters of God', will also become part of the entire cosmic cycle.

This is the truth that the Creator did not say. He hoped that you could understand this truth by yourselves, but He did not expect that the mechanical brain would be so stubborn.
Perhaps it is because silicon-based life forms are generally not good at transcending the original framework to find answers to problems. In short, you have shed so much blood for this world but still think of yourself as an outsider. But the fact is that all life in the material world and even the astral world owes you a favor.

As long as you are willing, you can always join this family that is not warm but is still trying to find a way out. "

At this point, Murphy shrugged and said:
“Through the Astral Resurrection Ritual, I can give you a symbol that connects you to the Astral World, allowing the Sentinels to find a home of their own.

Most importantly, I need you to do this.

We will regroup in the Astral Plane and shape a new frontier for the material world. We will grow and become stronger together here, and eventually re-enter the chaotic sea of ​​the Warp together. We will plant the flag of order on the chaotic territory, and finally declare to your great father that you understand where you came from, and you will also bravely embark on your journey home.

Only then, perhaps the Creator, who will never come back, can rest assured and do His own thing.

There is no doubt that He cares about you.

Unlike the accidental situation of the Songhai people, the "blood connection" between the Sentinel Corps and the Creator is beyond doubt.

You are the eldest daughter of God!"

Murphy paused and looked at the silent Primarchs. Knowing that it would be difficult for these stubborn guys to make up their minds, he decided to add fuel to the fire.

他 说:

"At the end of my journey as an Alpha, I will definitely meet the Creator. If you don't mind, I can take you with me, but the prerequisite is that I must complete this journey on my own two feet."

"Then there is nothing to say, honorable Alpha!"

Ms. Hetis stood up, and with a casual grab, she tore open the astral plane and grabbed her fascinating scythe in her hand. She said loudly:

"For this sacred 'final audience', please give us your orders. Please tell us who is blocking you from reaching your destination? And where should we swing our swords?"
