Xiling Empire

"Material from my hometown?"

I seemed to hear a rather incomprehensible statement, and I couldn't help but look at Tavel curiously: "Where? The previous fifteen-day zone?"

Tavel and Sivis couldn't help but look helpless: "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

I hesitated and laughed twice: "Isn't this just to adjust the atmosphere ... well, no more nonsense, what does it mean?"

Sivis took a deep breath, and adjusted her mood by the way. For the first time, I saw the kind of extreme shaking from the face of this female lieutenant who was always unshaken at any time, and even a little doubtful of her worldview. What will be said soon: "Your Majesty, any civilization should have a place of origin. Even the Protoss and Apostles of the Spirit have their origins in the world, should you understand that?"

I nodded: "Well, everything belongs to the mother ..."

Sivis: "... Her Majesty's summary is quite intuitive. That's it. At the core of this meteorite, there is a piece of material from his hometown. Now the deep analysis of it is not over. It is likely that it just looks similar in nature. But ... in theory, the substance of any world will carry the "registration information" of its source. Everything in the world is in a registry, even if the two worlds are exactly the same, such as the same iron element, In fact, they can also find their unique feature code. Once this feature code is determined, the unknown substance in the meteorite can be identified as the source. According to the current progress, the probability that it comes from the hometown world is extremely high. "

I nodded. I knew this. Every elementary particle in each world bears the imprint of this world. Even if such elementary particles also exist widely in other worlds, they can still be distinguished. This is one of the foundations of the world's information theory, and it is also a "security wall" that guarantees that the worlds in the void are extremely similar and can even be called parallel universes. It is for this reason that illegal crossing through normal void navigation will be banned: individuals who do not sail through the void will cause foreign matter (or something other than matter) to pollute others after crossing the world The underlying information of the world. It's like unpacking a piece of code from unknown sources into the system disk. It may be okay in the short term, but sooner or later, this external information will reduce the system—that is, the stability of the world.

Based on the "registry" information of all things in the world, we can determine which universe a common substance comes from-even if it is widely distributed in all universes, it cannot escape the scan of the underlying information.

"Now 70% of its underlying information has been scanned," Tavel looked at the meteorite samples floating on the antigravity platform. His eyes were very complicated. "In theory, to this extent, it can be judged whether the same substance is a product of a certain universe. But ... this is simply impossible. The hometown world ... has already been destroyed, is that This kind of complete destruction, leaving no residue of destruction-in theory. "

"The home world you said ..." I looked at Tavel and Sivis. Look at the thoughtful face beside her, as if she was quite touched, "is the world created by the Apostles of the Spirit?"

I know more or less the history of the Apostles of the Spirit. This superpower, now ranked third in the void, has an extraordinary origin. They did not arise naturally, but were created by an older, more mysterious race. . The race that created them at the time seems to be just an ordinary civilization in the current Spirit empire, and its technical strength is probably a little stronger than the Fijians who have just mastered the technology of void navigation. But their greatest feat was to give the first generation of Schilling apostles unprecedented evolutionary abilities, and the iron will of the past. Under the impetus of these two racial advantages, the Schilling apostles only reached today's height. Now that Sivis mentions the home world, my first reaction is where they were created.

"When we were created, the hometown world was destroyed, theoretically," Tavel said slowly, "we are all new apostles, but some basic information about the hometown world is used as core memory. Generations are stored in the core of each Spirit apostle's memory, so their subordinates know more or less about the homeland world. The spirit apostle was created in the middle of the Great Escape. Based on the scattered information that is now retained, the original generation of the Spirit apostle was reasoned , That is, the original body. Born on a solitary doomsday ark, it was the most critical moment of the entire civilization ... "

I have heard about this history myself, but I did n’t ask about it in detail at the time. Now, facing a piece of material that may come from the home world, Tavel and Sivis will remember the history in their memory that is a bit broken. Come on.

The story begins long before the birth of the Apostles, and the word "Spirit" at that time was not even a meaningful word. The ancient race that originally created the Apostles of the Spirit did not have a clear name at the time, but it is only now that we have been given the title of "Spirit of the Spirit". At first they were just a trivial species, calling themselves humans, exploring their world and the starry sky above them, once had religion, and later found a real way forward among the stars: such a race, a commonplace , It is almost the same as the macro world we have seen, and in the void, there are countless races and countless races born every second.

Regarding the demise of this ancient civilization and their original motives for the creation of the Apostles of the Spirit, it has not been possible to accurately test over time, but according to a little bit of memory, Sandora can determine that the creator has encountered an abyss. And the Apostles of the Spirit were created to deal with the abyss.

Just by the time the creators created the first apostles, their homeland had been completely destroyed by the abyss.

Of course, at this point in time, we also have no precise record. Tavel just made such inferences based on the core of his memory: "According to the fragments in the original memory, all the information about the hometown world is based on archives and 'instilled knowledge.' Stored in this way, this shows that the first generation of Apostles of the Spirit can only learn the information of the hometown world through a learning device. The only explanation is that when they were born, the creators had been defeated by the abyss and started to flee. The original The body was made on the fleeing ark. "

"According to core memory, the creators have tried to create a brand new life that can resist the erosion of the abyss before they escape the homeland universe, that is, the prototype of the original body. However, due to the difficulty, they have until their homes are destroyed, and the family fled It was only then that the first generation of the Apostles of the Spirit was successfully created, "Sandora took over the topic and said slowly. "Now that primitive is in our institute, you know he is a semi-mechanical creature with a lot of regrets, but when the creators fled their homes, they could not even make such a primitive. When a primitive who could be called the Spirit Apostle opened his eyes, the fleeing ark had been floating in the void for hundreds of years. Everything about the homeland world could only be infused into the first generation of the Spirit Apostle by means of data and concepts. It ’s in the memory for hundreds of millions of years. It's still burning here now — with bone-cutting hatred. ”Sandora said, reaching for her chest.

"That is to say, the Apostles of the Spirit have never seen their hometown ..." I sighed along this history and couldn't help sighing.

"This is a very ironic place," Sivis sighed helplessly. "We store the information of our hometown at the deepest core of memory. But our earliest individuals have only seen that place on the screen. We are A group of races born on the road to exile, so we are always expanding the territory of the empire ... The lesson of the creator is painful. We know how fragile a universe is, so the Apostles of the Spirit want their flag to occupy all the world. This is The hereditary hatred stemming from the abyss is also a subtle insecurity. "

I really did not expect that the spirit apostles would have such a sense of "insecurity." Their insecurity is really powerful, that's why. In the Old Empire era, they expanded the territory to 135 sky areas in one breath, which is almost the same as worrying that there is no house to live in, and then they have half the city in one breath ...

"No one has seen the hometown world, but you can tell that it came from the hometown?" I shook my head, pulled my thoughts back from the ancient times that can no longer be verified, and refocused on the huge meteorite sample in front of me. Tavel nodded: "Yes, although the customs and customs of the hometown world are completely missing, we only know clearly what kind of" character code "the material of the hometown world should have. This may be the creator's leaving The last part of the core memory that was input for the Primitives is probably from their nostalgia for their hometown. They also hope that the spirit apostles they created can remember the taste of their hometown. "

"It's like a pile of homeland that Youzi put in his bag before he left. Remembering the home world is far less important than remembering the‘ breath ’of the home world. Probably they think so.”

"The fallen apostle is grabbing this thing?" Xiao Xue looked at us and stopped talking, twitching my sleeves and whispering quietly, "They still think of the old?"

"Maybe there is a reason for this. But I think there is more significance behind it," Sandor calmed down, calmly, "the spirit apostle is a species of reason more than emotion, although we will also be from our hometown. The news was touched, but before that, we acted more in accordance with the interests of the race. If there is no greater significance, the fallen apostles will never start a war for such a useless ore. There must be more behind these stones from their hometown. Significant ... "

I thought about it, and returned to the guess at the beginning: "Maybe the hometown of the Greeks still existed? And the homeland universe hides a huge secret?"

"It's impossible!" This time, Tavel, Sivis, and even Sandora cried out in unison, and then they looked at each other and decided to let Sandora speak. "Ajun, you know the door of the abyss How destructive it is, in the entire history I know, if a gate of the abyss explodes, and it is not completely destroyed by a super civilization as powerful as the Apostles of the Spirit or the Star Protoss, then it can be destroyed sooner or later. The entire universe: It ’s only a matter of time, and the gates of the abyss will never dissipate by themselves. The creator ’s exile indicates that the gates of the abyss of the hometown world are completely out of control. I even suspect that when they boarded the boat, The hometown universe has begun to collapse. No matter how you think about it, the probability of hometown surviving to this day is zero, and even the probability of a fragment remaining is zero. "

"But we do have such a stone on hand, from your hometown." I pointed to the huge meteorite. Well, it actually refers to the small dense material in the center of the meteorite. The meteorite itself did not come from the home universe. But I don't know what's going on. At its core is a piece of material from the home universe.

Tavel did not know how these two things would merge together. Her initial guess was that a material leak occurred during the destruction of the home universe, and a phenomenon similar to the flash of space caused the material in the meteorite to fall. Other universes. But just a moment ago, she reversed this conjecture herself: the age of the meteorite was confirmed no earlier than 20,000 years ago, and the special substance at its core also left a trace across the world at the same time, that is, At least until 20,000 years ago, the special substance at the core of the meteorite should be left in the "hometown".

"Maybe we should look for the band of Fijian hawkers to see where they found this."

"Subordinates do it." Sivis nodded. Get up and contact those magical Fijians.

Tavel still frowned: "His Majesty, maybe even if we can find the source of the meteorite, we can't solve our problem. It was formed about 20,000 years ago: even if this means that our hometown is still alive, and 20,000 years ago, We are leaking material to other worlds, but we ca n’t trace the channel of the material leak, and we ca n’t find the coordinates of the home world. The flash of space ca n’t last for so long, it only appears for a moment, and then the two worlds No entanglement. This is the theory. "

Tavel is right, but it's better than nothing. I can see that although the rational side of the Spirit Apostle has been emphasized, even after seeing this stone that may come from his hometown, even Sandora seems a bit difficult to restrain her emotions: this is more than a question of reason and emotion . This is a major event involving the origin of the Apostles of the Spirit. The aggression of the Spirit apostles against the abyss, their innate war mission, and the source of their continuous expansion and conquest power, all of which come from the home universe that was destroyed by the gate of the abyss. If anything can make the Spirit apostles lose their square feet, that's really the only news from their hometown.

The appearance of an original primitive caused a great uproar in the spiritual network of the new empire, but today the blockbuster is larger than the original equivalent of the original: the origin of the Greek civilization may have survived, which is remembered by all the apostles In the heart, but no one has ever witnessed it. May be alive!

Fortunately, the apostle of Schilling has no cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Otherwise, do you know how many people have to die in this period ...

Next, Tavel completed in-depth scanning and cutting of the meteorite, and the dense material at the core of the meteorite was carefully separated. It looks dark and can't tell if it's a metal or some kind of heavy element crystal: But these aren't important, what's important is that their source is fascinating. The final result of the in-depth scanning was completely as I expected: it came from the homeland of the Apostles of the Spirit who had never met before. 100% match.

I knew that fate, the bastard, would not disappoint. The only purpose of the girl's energy is to keep our family from being idle every day. At this time, I suddenly felt that the mud version brought back by the fox last night was no longer a thing: compared to the origin of the Apostles of the Spirit, how big is a loach that has been buried on the earth for 6,000 years? ? Suspension is just a sporadic record left over from the period of Atlantis civilization.

Sivis was very efficient. Before the deep scanning and cutting work on Tavill's side was completed, the weird Queen Fiary was brought to the headquarters by storm, and I saw that Twenty was behind her. An unsmiling Royal Guard of the Spirit, and Filith's face looked horrified. As soon as she saw me, she almost jumped in place: "I want to buy an emperor secretly is just a plan, and it hasn't turned into action yet. Do you have to do this ?!"

Me: "..." What kind of misunderstanding seems to have occurred in the middle?

I coughed awkwardly and asked, "What does it mean to buy an emperor secretly?"

How savvy Felice was, she knew that she was about to talk, and looked up at the sky in an instant: "The ceiling is so high today ... didn't you send these soldiers to catch me and shoot me?"

I turned to look at the female assistant officer: "... Sivis ~ www.readwn.com ~ what did you tell her when you contacted me just now?"

"Don't leave the house, the emperor summons," Sivis replied calmly, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with her words, "probably the Imperial soldier made a small mistake when he picked up the person in the past. "

I thought about it, or let the gang of imperial soldiers behind Felix quickly flash: As the most unscrupulous group of empire soldiers, the royal guards deal with his race is a naked tragedy.

"Frighten me ..." Phyllis patted her chest exaggeratedly and looked at the expression on her face. I didn't know that the fear was real. At this time, she had the time to look around, and immediately recognized it. What filled the whole warehouse, "Yeah! Isn't this my stone?"

"I'm here to talk about stones," I pointed to the nearest non-gravity platform, and a small label was suspended on the platform. This label was originally placed with the meteorite sample. The identification card, "This thing ..."

Felice immediately looked at me solemnly, with the brilliance of an honest merchant: "We don't return goods ..."

Me: "..." (to be continued ...)
