Xiling Empire

"Uneasy?" I stared suddenly, trying to see a more specific message from Miss's face.

Lin Xue's eyes narrowed again, and this time the pale white light leaking out of her eyes was more obvious than before. When she opened her eyes again, I could only see a deep feeling: "It's just an upset, I can't see any Something specific. "

Lin Xue ’s prediction is not almighty. There are many factors that can interfere with her prediction process, such as unprecedented power, void vision, and abyss reaction. These destructive things can destroy the entire cause-effect line. There are also forces that interfere with the so-called fate. Therefore, Lin Xue's prediction of deep diving is the most ambiguous one among many predictions. Basically, it can only determine the success of the test, but it is impossible to determine the specific conditions that will be encountered in the process. Especially now that the Void Cataclysm is approaching, and the discontinuous zone under the gate of the abyss is getting closer and closer to the world of order, the power of the young lady seems to have been disturbed to a certain extent, and her judgment on "deep diving" has become increasingly blurred.

But even so, her prediction was still the most important reference before the start of each deep dive. Through the void, she could not find anything more useful and accurate than her prediction.

"This deep dive will fail?" I said as I glanced at the communicator next to him. Anthes didn't hear the conversation. He just frowned at the communicator, and then kept busy with the work at hand. , And I started to think about whether to interrupt this deep dive.

"It's vague, it seems that this experiment was successful, but my intuition made me a little uneasy about the process," Lin Xue said carefully. In such a serious place, the young lady completely converges on the bad habits in weekdays. "You can't see the process of deep diving, and because the abyss disrupted the event line, predictions with a long span that directly targeted the ancestors will also be disturbed. What you see are some broken fragments."

Sandorra raised her index finger against her chin: "Would you like to stop first? Maybe the gate of the abyss today will be unstable, anyway, the new ship has just finished debugging, and it won't break if it is left. We don't have to rush to this day or two of."

I looked at Tavel, and the great scientist certainly didn't want his project to be postponed. Her eager anticipation of the experimental data cannot be imagined by others, but she also knows how important the prophet's suggestion is at this time: for the prophet, let alone intuitive vigilance, even if he occasionally sneezes Or a cold war may be linked to the future, and words and deeds cannot be taken lightly. Now that Lin Xue clearly feels uneasy, the risk of carrying out the experiment as planned is too great.

"It can be postponed. When we check the abyss gate a few more times, there may be variables that have not been found before," Tavel nodded, "but it is best to discuss with the ancestors, after all, they are the first operators, And ... uh. Not very persuasive. "

The stubborn ancestors of the old ancestors are well-known. Although they will strictly obey as long as there are orders, no matter I or Sandora, in the face of the old ancestors, they can't give orders without giving orders. Our ultimate goal.

"What's the matter?" At this time, Anthers' voice came from the communicator. Although our hurried and whispering conversation was not true to his side, the other party must have noticed that the atmosphere was not right here. "Looking at your dignity, how can there be a problem?"

"Lin Xue has a bad hunch," I was straightforward. "She wasn't sure what the outcome was, but she was uneasy. We discussed whether to cancel the operation this time and wait until the problem is clear."

"Cancel the action?" Anthers's face really looked depressed, but he maintained his emotions with the consciousness of the soldier. The old man frowned and looked at this side through the communicator. "Just because of the uneasy mood Ning? Is there a clear conclusion that the experiment failed? "

"No," I didn't mean to cheat the old ancestors in this regard, "but it's not very certain that it will succeed. You also know that the state of the abyss has become more and more unstable recently, and predictions associated with it have been greatly disturbed."

"Then you can't cancel it hastily," Anthes' eyebrows have almost twisted into a frown, "I also know a few vague prophecies of the prophet, and I know what this probably means. It should be the deep dive that succeeds in the end, but in the middle There were minor accidents-we have encountered such accidents several times, and there is no problem. Maybe this time it was just the prophet who observed them on the spot to feel these.

At the end, Anthes's eyebrows stretched out and his expression was very relaxed: "I know you guys must say that I am stubborn, but the timing is not waiting. The deep diving experiment is very important. Today is the most 'climate' of this port in recent times. On a good day, it ’s a pity to miss it. Of course, we will pay attention to safety. If we encounter any problems below, we will definitely float up the first time. This is a new ship. Its ability to resist pressure in dangerous situations is comparable to the previous one. The old ship is much stronger. "

The old ancestor didn't seem to be worried at all, but this didn't relieve me and Sandora. I looked at Lin Xue again, but the expression on the other side's face was obviously helpless.

At this time, Abyss Spirit suddenly floated over with her big box. She always did not like to talk in such a gathering of people, but now she actively persuaded her ancestors: "Slightly postponing does not affect the 'big cause'. Your progress, your life and the deep-submersible ships you are riding on are all valuable property of the empire and should not be wasted in reckless action. "

This is quite a "abyss-like spirit" way of speaking, but the ancestors seemed to be able to listen to this kind of persuasion. Anthes nodded slightly, then looked at the abyss-like spirit with a strange expression: "You still Really for the empire. "

"I never betrayed it." Abyss Xi Ling nodded, his face smiling as always.

The first meeting between the ancestors and the abyss spirit was a little embarrassing, because the old ancestors who had experienced the life in exile were deeply disgusted by everything that was associated with the abyss, when they knew that a group of apostles of the spirit had been polluted and transformed into fallen apostles. This is even more the case. They can accept the abyss apostles that have been reverse-transformed, but they are extremely repulsive to the polluters who have been hunted and plundered in the abyss area-but the cooperation of the abyss spirit and the historical truth she brings makes all Unexpected.

It took half a month from top to bottom of the high-level Empire to accept the facts and change their attitude. Not to mention the ancestors.

But this is a matter of a few days ago, and the ancestor now knows the idea of ​​Abyss Spirit and the reason for her previous actions. Although she still ca n’t agree with her dangerous way of thinking, her perception of the “fallen apostles” camp is much more objective than before. Although the new army in the fallen apostles is still the enemy of the empire, but willing to cooperate with the empire, And in the future, the "benign elements" of the ancestors will still be acceptable. And now part of the senior scientists of the Joint Proving Ground are the fallen apostles. With the cooperation of these days, the relationship between the ancestors and the abyss spirit has normalized.

"Then pause first. But I don't recommend canceling it directly," Anthes responded with a compromise. "It can be placed for a few hours. According to the rules previously grasped, the vision under the gate of the abyss changes the longest. The cycle is only less than one hour, and even if it has some conditions, it will return to normal within one hour. If it exceeds this cycle, it must be a long-term abnormality that we can't master at present, and it doesn't make sense to wait for a long time In the end, someone will be sent to investigate the situation. "

The opinions of the ancestors are well-founded this time, and now they are no longer laymen, but have made suggestions from the perspective of front-line experimenters. No one else can say anything. I glanced at Tavel and got a positive reply from the glasses lady, so I nodded: "Well, postpone for three hours, and check all the equipment while this incident is happening. Prevent external accidents."

With Lin Xue's uneasy word, I have taken “accidents during deep diving” as an established fact.

The unexpected situation did not cause any confusion among the staff at the deep dive port. After all, "deep diving" itself is a project that is always accompanied by dangers. The staff here are used to facing emergencies, and they perform various sudden drills countless times on weekdays. The deep-submersible ship keeps the power core idling and quietly statically over the gate. A batch of self-regulatory machinery and engineering machines fly out from each node to check the deep-submersible ship and the restraining devices around the gate. Other equipment has also undergone a self-inspection again. All facilities that will exchange data with deep-submersible vessels must take the previous debugging process aside.

Sheila looked at the busy hall in front of her, listening to a hastily but well-organized report, and suddenly smiled and said, "You are all very professional. I have seen it a few times at a glance."

"We started 70,000 years ago." I said with a smile, adding the deep diving history of the old empire directly to the new empire.

"The inspection of the deep dive vessel is all right."

"The suppression system is checked and everything is OK."

"The sensitive communication array has been checked and everything is OK."

"The information quarantine is usually checked and everything is normal ..."

Messages were sent back to the control center, and all systems were operating normally. Anthers kept his patience. Everyone at the scene kept his patience. The two hours seemed a little long, but it was finally over.

"That feeling is still there," Lin Xue exhaled, and even the calm and calm prophet was a little bit uncertain about the abyss, but she nodded. It's a normal 'little accident', since it can't be avoided ... let's continue. "

Tavel turned and calmly ordered: "The engineering ship releases the locking device, and the deep dive ship switches to its own power and is ready to dive."

Anthers smiled "Everything assured" to everyone on the communicator: "I'll be careful. Then ... United i!"

The deep dive ship got out of lock, quickly approached the gate of the abyss, and finally disappeared into the darkness.

Perhaps it was because of Lin Xue's infection, and even I couldn't help but think of a weird thought in my heart for a moment: Will it really be goodbye to this?

Under the influence of this idea, the time seems to be slowed down, so that the short black time of the deep dive ship entering the door to communication recovery is as long as several years, but with the communicator The noise on the surface disappeared, and the image with some interference but still clear reappeared. Anthers' voice relieved all nervous people: "Here is United i, which has successfully entered the gate and the components of the spacecraft are in operation. Good. Oh, better than expected. "

Lin Xue also relaxed, and even had time to kick me lightly and tease two sentences: "Look at this broken name you gave. There is no idea at all, what kind of joint i. I do n’t know I thought it was from the Second Agricultural Machinery Factory. . "

"It's better than the Brooklyn." I slanted the young lady, and my heart was relaxed for a while.

The naming of the new spacecraft has tangled a large group of people in the first family for a long time. If it had not shown her brains, I am afraid that the idea of ​​"United i" really won't prevail ...

"Don't relax your vigilance so fast, the deep dive has just begun." Sandora warned everyone cautiously, letting us realize that it was not the time to talk about each other.

For most people at the scene, "throwing things into the door of the abyss" is not the first time, and everyone is familiar with the first few tasks. The control center issues a series of instructions in accordance with procedures. Anthers accurately performed and recorded the data: this is the first step in the actual combat of the new ship, and these tests have been carried out several times before the unmanned trial of the ship, so there is no accident at all.

"The power core is stable, the energy is surging, the output is accurate, the conversion device works very well, the components made by the source energy mine ... 矿. There is no pressure at all in such a large energy flow, the shield is refreshed normally, and the balance exceeds 100% Ninety, the new propulsion system is also very good, and it is perfectly compatible with the control of Hilling's "blood", "Anthus glorious. For an old captain, nothing pleases him more than a perfect new ship. "Well, the situation under the abyss gate is also normal. I saw the workstation set up here a few days ago. It looks like it's in good condition and can run for a long time. I'll just say. Why is there a problem. "

I looked at Tavel with a satisfied smile: "Good job, I didn't expect that you could build a new boat in such a short time ... the efficiency of the Apostles of Healing is also amazing."

The four parties to jointly manufacture deep submersible ships must face not only their own technical issues, but also crucial technical integration and compatibility issues. Although the spirit apostles are extremely efficient, their "joint thinking" talent is very good at Rapid tests under virtual conditions have verified a lot of models, but the speed at which Tavel builds new ships is staggering. I had thought she would take out the finished product at least three months later.

"Deep diving technology has the same goal, and the two protoss have already achieved considerable results in their respective deep diving fields. Their subordinates just integrated ready-made things into a framework," Tavel smiled humbly, "and The two Protoss and Abyss experts are very dedicated. They are also thinking about the method of technology fusion, so it is not difficult to just put together the finished products. Of course, more important is our active energy mine. "

"Yeah, pitted my face with the source energy mine." Abyss Xi Ling said sourly beside her. She had lived in Shadow City for a long time, and she also learned a lot of words unique to "here".

The large holographic projection shows the picture from the deep submersible. The spacecraft is still roaming in the shallow area, and the center of the picture is a work platform protected by a light blue mask. This work platform looks like a fast layout. At the scientific research station, there is only one building like a barracks on the small triangular platform: this is the forward outpost we set up under the gate of the abyss. This is the latest one in front of us.

In a chaotic abyss, such outposts are the only things that are colored, solid, orderly, and long-term. Of course, their "long-term" is also relative.

The deep-submersible ship approached the outpost according to the predetermined procedure, and compared their respective monitoring data on the abyss. First, ensure that the outpost and the deep-submersible ship were not polluted and caused cognitive errors. Then the second step of the experiment started today:

The deep dive boat dived and approached to the discontinuity zone.

If you want to establish a connection with the other side, you must cross this discontinuous zone, so you must study this thing anyway.

The dive process was smooth and boring. Everyone with a touch of tension and a look of anticipation waited for the deep dive ship to contact the strange and inexplicable mobile interlayer. The time seemed to be stretched again. The control center could only hear the various seats. There are nervous and orderly reports and instructions, and there may be live reports from Anthers or other ancestors.

Lin Xue's hunch seemed really just a nervousness.

"Already approaching the discontinuity ... continuously approaching ... contacting the upper layer of the discontinuity ..." Anthus's calm voice woke me from the feeling of slowing time. "Turn on the special detector to collect pollution readings and peaks of disorder. , Ready to calculate the 'range' of the discontinuity. Call the command center. Is the data received there clear? "

A high-level Spirit Angel is the operator of the communication module. She checked the data returned in front of her eyes and compared whether the clutter in the data was a pollution carrier. She quickly concluded: "The data is accurate and reliable. Recording. "

The communication device used by the deep dive ship is the relic of the fifteen-day zone that we recovered from the Merawas, the peak-level deep diving equipment made by the old empire. Now it seems that this old antique works better than the most advanced things at hand.

The discontinuous belt readings from the deep dive ship were presented to everyone, as weird and ridiculous as ever.

The contamination concentration is high and low, and the order is chaotic and the peaks are jittering like a paper tape ejected by an earthquake recorder. The entire discontinuous zone is in a state of constant "oscillation", and its overall trend is constantly approaching the real world ~ www.readwn.com ~ However, its "position" cannot be determined within a certain period of time, within a certain range The internal transition moves generally: this is also the most dangerous place in the discontinuity zone. It is likely that you think you have only touched its relatively smooth surface, but next second you will find that it suddenly “channels up” a lot. Wrap the entire deep submersible in deadly ultra-high levels of pollution.

But for now, everything looks safe.

"Deep submersibles" hover "in this area for an hour," Anthers repeated the instructions on the plan, even if the old ancestors were stubborn, this time came strictly in accordance with regulations, "record discontinuity in place The magnitude of the transition, and strive to determine at once what the 'thickness' of this thing is. "

Time passed minute by minute, the data was transmitted a little bit, but Lin Xue suddenly exclaimed in my ear: "Quickly withdraw!"

"Zi--"
