Xiling Empire

Toberu is an advanced race with high accomplishments in space technology and psionic technology. We found that the portals they use have almost the same performance as the Empire ’s short- and medium-range transport systems, and After being completely driven by phantom energy, I was even more convinced of this.

Although many people think of Zerg when they mention barbarism, ruthlessness, lack of restraint and extreme expansionism, and so on, and many people think that Zerg are only good at developing biotechnology-such as their own biceps — —It is not suitable for studying high technology, but in fact, this “conclusion” based on racial impression is a very unreasonable prejudice. Whether or not a technological civilization can be developed has no decisive connection with the appearance of a race, but depends on their historical process and world environment. Toberu is a stark example. They are a typical swarm race, and they have a centralized structure similar to the insect kingdom, and they have produced a variety of super-evolutions that adapt to the environment. However, their most powerful are still science and technology, and they can be harmonious with other races. get along.

They are even the members of the Exile fleet with the highest technology-the only members who have retained most of their original technology. After the exiles finally set up a new home in this universe, all races invariably chose to continue to mature Toberu technology that is adaptable to all races as the core technology of their world. For example, the Space Dock we passed by, as well as the buildings on the colonial star below, were all constructed using Toberu technology. Well, at least 80% are like this.

Such a person has special talent. Moreover, in terms of the social structure of race, it is more suitable for civilizations that face the cruel cosmic environment and various evolutionary challenges. If Enron had not encountered that disaster in that year, and Enron has developed so far, it must have achieved limitless achievements. Like the Apostles of the Spirit, it has not been easier to grasp the truth of the world because of the simultaneous development of two technical systems, the Department of Mystery and the Department of Science and Technology.

While teleporting to the Governor's Mansion through a space teleporter made by the Toberu Zerg. I couldn't help but have those ideas above. The equipment around them is too easy to make people feel: they have completely different manufacturing processes, weird but effective system architecture, and these black machines with some kind of insect carapace smooth and round appearance are full of my most familiar psychic energy. Toberu High Zerg is the only race I've ever seen that can use phantom energy as a daily source of energy, in addition to the Spirit Empire, and can apply it to its own race. Other races may also have the ability to harness psionic powers, but they have not been able to make corresponding progress. Only Toberu is an exception. In addition to the huge difference in appearance, their civilization and the development of the Spirit Apostle on the scientific side Full of similarities.

It is for this reason that Sandora and I are very sorry that such a race has never been able to join the Empire camp.

Sandora has been thinking about how to completely dispel the exiles' jealousy of the empire and let them bother, and eventually let the Toberu High Zerg traverse the entire void like this is a rare genius species to join the army of the new empire . Originally we thought that it might take two hundred years of hard work—this is the average life span of the members of the exiles ’combined fleet. Both Sandora and the expert team believed that the release of the two would require at least a generation of time for the exiles—but now I suddenly felt that I might be facing an opportunity: as long as I could find the fleeing team that had completely lost contact with the Fourth Fleet hundreds of years ago, it might be able to motivate a considerable number of exiles to join the Empire camp. Rather than as it is now, there are only a handful of radicals who are considered "heretics" among them to have a good opinion of the Empire.

Guided by King and Torquay, and a small team of Toberu soldiers, we came to the capital of the newly established exile, and came to a city called "Kerudak" Rudak is also the name of this planet, and the higher Zerg of Toberu used to use the name of the planet to directly name the planet's capital). This city is the "capital" of the planet and the administrative center of the exiles. When taking the shuttle in the atmosphere to the seat of the "Parliament", we were all curious to observe this alien city with a unique style. The most noticeable is the style of the Toberu buildings. They look like spore plants that swell at the ends. All buildings are tall and large, and the lower part is slender (relative to the entire building). The smooth black "umbrella handle" looks like a tower, while the upper part swells to form irregular spheres of different sizes and shapes. Countless such buildings form the main body of "Kayrudak", like a spore city. And various small vehicles for intra-plane transportation shuttle around the "waist" of these buildings, busy and orderly. Due to the special shape of the Toberu buildings, the mid-air section in the "Kerudak" city is quite spacious and suitable for the transportation needs of civil flying equipment.

Of course, many different styles of buildings can be seen in this city, but they are few in number and more like decorative embellishments.

Along the way, both Jin and Tuo were chatting with us with interest, and the main topic was to introduce them to this large city-although in my opinion all the buildings here are so weird, but in them In their eyes, this is obviously the most proud home. And just because we have a strong interest in the construction progress here, so the topic started smoothly. I think the "Parliament" sent these two ordinary young soldiers who did not have much power to serve as "diplomats". This is also the meaning of their mission. Most of their tasks are to chat with the leaders of the empire. Perhaps the "Parliament" has learned the habits of the rulers of the new empire through various channels, so she knows that in such a situation that cannot be greeted with honor guards, sending two acquaintances to meet will more easily gain the favor of our party. Her judgment was correct.

However, we never mentioned to Jin and Tuoyu the specific thing that he came to discuss with the parliament this time-that is, the news that the Fifth United Fleet might still survive. This was when we communicated with the "Parliament" before. The affairs of the Fifth Fleet are still a secret among the exiles. In addition to the "Parliament" and some senior officials who know this, there are only those technicians who have received the signals. Kim and Tuo are not of sufficient level. Of course, they know nothing about this. They only know that the head of the empire suddenly came to visit in person today, and their task was to come and receive them, but they did not know what the empire would discuss with the "Parliament" first. It is also wise not to ask more.

"The sky above the city is blocked by these big balls, but the lighting is not affected." The sister looked curiously at the scenery outside through the porthole and couldn't help talking to herself. "And that big building, supported by a thin pillar, doesn't look very strong."

"Light. Enter the lower layer of the city and drain through the refraction field. The light is average, throughout the city," Tuo, who was sitting next to us, waved his thin forelimbs and introduced to us. "With or without gravity equipment, no need Support, the building itself ... "

"Ahem, let me explain," Kim saw our increasingly confused look. He waved his companion to calm down. "First of all, you probably know the problem of lighting, just add a light deflection system. In addition, all these buildings have gravity-free equipment, so they are not afraid of falling down- The thin pillars below are not supportive either. They are only connecting devices. The main body of the city is the **** above, and everyone lives there. "

"I didn't notice this in your Star Warship at the time," I looked at the "Spore Buildings" passing by, and felt that the world was really amazing, "but it seemed very different from the buildings I saw at the time."

"That's the refuge, this is the home." Jin's face filled with a smile, and he didn't hide his happiness. "The houses in the refuge are all very low, there is no such aerial structure, because there are Space is too precious, it's different here. Kailudak is now a very, very large city, and many people live here, but today is a day of proliferation, and the city will not be as crowded as it is now. Come on-by the way, you have to look at that, but that was the most spectacular time over the city ... "

King suddenly mentioned a term we felt strange: proliferation, but before I asked for details about the word, a Toberu Zerg soldier suddenly entered the cabin and told us we had reached our destination.

The final destination is the "Parliament Building", which is also a huge sphere supported by a thin pillar with a diameter of only a few meters. These buildings built by the Toberu Zerg are a bit idiosyncratic in their basic structure. Only reflected in the swelled ball above it. The parliament building is taller than the surrounding buildings, and the upper half of the top sphere has a symmetrical octagonal "lid", which is its most distinctive. The shuttle docked on a small platform at the bottom of the sphere. Jin and Tuoyuan didn't seem to have permission to enter, so they bid farewell to us outside, and we were led by a team of Toberu soldiers into the "building". In the end, it was the female officer who had taken us by the way. After seeing us, the other party rudely gave us a military salute-not the empire's military salute, but their own. The exiles did not Join any emperor team, so they don't need to treat us with emperor.

"Parliament is waiting for you. This is a secret talk. Nearly half of the government officials have been caught in the drum, so please forgive me." The attitude of the female officer this time is really much better than the first meeting. Times, although it can be seen that she is a bit unnatural, but this is mostly out of nervousness and shivering, and there is no longer a lot of hostility. The older sister nodded kindly to her, and then we entered the hall together.

We were still greeted by an empty, completely symmetrical polygonal metal room, exactly the same as the room where the "Parliament" was first seen. Walking in here reminded everyone of entering the command center of the exile fleet for the first time, listening to " Parliament "tells the story of the darkest black history of the empire. But this time is a little different from the last time: when the lights around flashed and the "Parliament" gradually emerged from the air, there were also a few large seats behind us out of thin air: really good, this time also Prepare the furniture.

The voice of a woman with a multi-metal echo sounded in the air: "I hope you don't mind this humble hospitality, your arrival is sudden. I haven't had time to prepare yet-we should have sent someone to report. I didn't expect you Will come immediately in person. "

This time is more impersonal than the last hospitality ...

"Even the scene, you know we're not used to this-and you're not used to it," I waved at the Chinese woman who appeared in the air and sat down casually, "tell me about the situation now."

"Yes, first of all, this is the signal we received." The thinking aggregate that appeared in front of our eyes as a projection turned on other projection equipment in the hall. What appeared in front of everyone was a video clip that had been distorted so that it could not see the content at all. Only the audio signal seemed to be in better condition. This sound has been processed. The recognizable snippet sounded clear: "... the Fifth Fleet has ... no one arrived ... is under attack ... imperial mark ... unrecognizable enemy, we are alone ... we have retreated, and Can last for a while. Whether or not anyone can still receive this frequency ... this is the last communication attempt ... "

The signal that the "Council" showed us was only a few tens of seconds, and then it began to loop.

"It sounds messy," Sandora raised her arm and pointed at the scrambled image. "These video clips appear to be images from the war, but they are too blurry."

"This is the clearest version," "Council" shook his head with regret. "We received this last message early this morning, and then lost contact with the other party again. Until now, the channel that searched for this information It's still a noise. We called back 27 times with our strongest communication equipment. But we don't know if the other party received the signal. "

"That is to say, the news of the Fifth Fleet is completely lost now ..." My sister did not seem very optimistic about the status quo, "This message is likely to have been sent before-I heard that the signals you received for three consecutive days were all It ’s the same, so this should be an automatic broadcast. The first transmission is likely to be a long time ago. "

"This is the worst judgment." The parliament nodded, "So parliament is weighing how or to what extent this incident should be made public. The news of the Fifth Fleet means a lot to us, but now The announcement is likely to be turbulent. "

"Xiao Xue." I thought for a moment, turned to look at the girl sitting next to her, and the other party replied, "Huh ~~"

"You can sleep at this time too!" I was about to run away in an instant. Holding the other person's face to the sides, Xiao Xue waved his hands and shouted, "Ah, it hurts, it hurts! Dad, I didn't sleep, I didn't sleep! I just did divination for the Fifth Fleet--"

I was stunned and suddenly didn't know if I should believe the girl's words, because Lin Xue had told me before. When predicting an extremely vague target, it felt as if the soul was out of the body and it was easy to enter. In the state of absence, the outside world seemed to be asleep. It's just that Lin Xue doesn't snore when he makes such deep predictions ...

Xiaoxue's eyes turned quickly, and before I spoke, I quickly shifted the topic: "The Fifth Fleet is temporarily safe now-but I haven't escaped the hunt. I see that my predicted goal will continue to change in the next time. Vague, this should be the reason they are gradually being hunted down-of course, if we fail to perform effective rescue. "

"Parliament" looked at us in doubt, and I pointed at Xiao Xue: "Her word is credible, this is the prophet."

"Very ... unbelievable ability," the council seemed to show some surprise, but the tone was still the kind of statement of facts, and then she no longer tangled with this temporarily unclear question, "then what you say, The Fifth Fleet still has a chance. They should be trying to escape from the attackers. The enemy is very strong, but they obviously do not have the ability to confine and destroy the Fifth Fleet. But we have not yet found a way to help the Fifth Fleet. "

"They may have reached extremely deep in the void, their coordinates are unknown, they are unable to send reinforcements, their contacts are interrupted, and their condition cannot be confirmed ... well ~ www.readwn.com ~ The only thing we can do now is to re-establish contact, we have to make sure The status quo of the Fifth Fleet. "Sandora immediately judged the current situation, then put her eyes on the" Parliament "," open your communication port and tell us the information mode when you contact the Fifth Fleet, we use The Departure Garden system searches for that signal. "

The "Parliament" seemed to be a little surprised. It may be that the Empire did not expect it to be so easy to help: the exile's inertial impression of the Empire is not so easy to change. Then she fell into a short period of silence. I don't think she can hesitate on this issue and took the initiative to say: "It's not time to worry about psychological barriers. The Fifth Fleet is downsizing every moment. Say you guys They have already settled in the empire, so why don't they still be so jealous of us? "

"No, please forgive us, but the council is not hesitant on this issue," the agglomeration women apologized to us-in a completely straight tone, "only a sudden sigh: the communication protocol within the United Fleet was first formed The first purpose is to keep Emperor's equipment confidential. I didn't expect to need the technology of your empire now ... this is really dramatic. "

"Let ’s talk about the dramatic problem later," Sandora stood up. "I have just scheduled the system transfer. When will you be ready here?" (To be continued. If you like this work , You are welcome to vote for referrals and monthly passes. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
