Xiling Empire

In the current Shadow City, as long as you look up at the sky, you will find that there is a spectacular and mysterious curved land above the very high clouds in the sky. This earth's high suspension has expanded to a shadow that can no longer be described by the city. Above the city, it stretches in all directions to the limit of your vision. The slightly radian that swells downwards in the middle can make you realize that this land is actually a part of a sphere, but its largeness and magnificence make it impossible to see the whole picture. .

The ground of the sky is covered with a layer of silver white and verdant green, silver white is a city of alloy casting, and green green is a lush jungle of plants. []

It's like another world reflecting the sky.

This wonder in the sky is a topic that residents of the Shadow City have talked about for the past two days. Its grandness, mystery, and magnificence have earned it more eyeballs than that of the aerial fortress of the Ministry of Military Affairs. Many people guess that The world of reflection is coming, and many people are busy spreading various versions of the truth because of their knowledge or knowledge of the inside, but there is only one truth, and it is very simple: it is the empire's capital planet, the parent star Gaia.

Well, I know that the original name of the mother star was not Gaia, but considering that the planet has become the temporary body of a phantom girl, I decided to name it Gaia.

The reconstruction of the universe in the original Keppel region has been completed, and even the post-adjustment work has been completed. Gaia and the mother star under her control will naturally have no mission. Discuss with Sandora. After that, I decided to transfer this planet to shadow space-and this was a few days ago, when we were still at war in the Mobrador Universe, and in my free time, I signed the order of the capital star transfer, When we returned in triumph, Gaia Star had been hanging for two and a half days over the shadow city.

Although it was an order signed quickly after a tense battle, the idea was not rash.

After a long time of construction, the shadow space has become a safe place in the empire's territory. All our top command centers are concentrated in this artificial universe, as are the headquarters and the space-time administration. In contrast, it should have been the center of empire rule. However, the parent star has been busy in the affiliated civilization's heavenly area, engaged in infrastructure construction and demolition and resettlement. This is a bit awkward anyway. The work of relocating the parent star should have been on the agenda for a long time. Actually, this is only completed Still a bit delayed.

I have to say that the impact caused by another world hanging in the sky is very great, especially for some people who have depression phobia. It is definitely not comfortable to look up at the sky and a large continent hanging down. When Yagang moved here, Shadow City ’s psychotherapy industry prospered for two days. The income growth of the psychologist was almost the same as the growth of ideas in shallow heads. Gaia had to start mirroring the home star itself. The system, the vision of the parent star's continent projected above the shadow city was visually weakened to resolve this psychological panic. Therefore, now we see the heavenly continent and feel it is just a bit ethereal picture instead of thinking Coming soon. And when it comes to the parent star hanging in the sky, it's actually not correct. Considering the huge difference between the size of the parent star and the shadow city, this statement should be reversed: the current shadow city is only in the northern hemisphere at high altitude. Correct. Although it's just a matter of argument, Gaia seems to be engrossed by it. She insists that Shadow City should be regarded as the satellite of the mother star instead of the other way round. I can only interpret this as Gaia's integration with the planet. Too long, she has almost thought of herself as a planet-it is a kind of reason to see the crow close to An Weina ...

After Sandora mentioned that the avenger spirit **** could not be combined with any kind of body, I just looked up at the sky, which is also an important reason for our mortal IQ to turn faster than Sandora I suddenly thought of a person whose symptoms were exactly the same as those of the ancient spirit hun, and that was Gaia.

It is also a conceptual loss of body, and it is also impossible to use any type of apostolic body. It is also only possible to store the inside of the large array machine in the form of data. Importantly, Gaia also said personally that her current appearance is Caused by a trial disaster.

Although she never said anything about the experimental disaster, but by inference, I am almost certain that she should be referring to the experimental disaster that -15 was inspired by the Avengers. . Those avengers copied the rewriting method of the spirit **** that caused Gaia's situation, thus completely destroying the spirit network in their sky.

Gaia has an advantage after transferring the mother star to shadow space, that is, we can go and see her at any time. Of course, what I see is just a pale blue virtual shadow, but compared to the holographic image, the mother star can The feeling of chatting with Gaia is still different.

The military aisle at Dimension Hub Plaza has a portal directly leading to the home star control hub. Sandora and I quickly reached the destination through this gate.

"I was sleepwalking when I first came here."

Looking at the familiar and strange steel city around, and the lush jungle in the distance, I said to Sandora with a smile.

This magnificent city is the home star control hub. Although it looks a bit like a bustling city in the future, it is actually an unmanned, self-disciplined "building complex" rather than a place to live. It is called the parent star control hub. As the name suggests, one of the functions here is the dispatch center of the entire planet. Most of the dazzling and confusing alloy buildings around it are all kinds of computing and processing facilities. The elevated roads and bridges of the three-dimensional transportation network are protection grooves for various cables. Gaia ’s “information” is constantly passing through these buildings and cables. Therefore, strictly speaking, this control hub is Gaia ’s “self” .

Because of her own high computing power or comprehensive ing energy, this particular mother star has a completely self-disciplined control hub, which I have only recently known. It turned out that I thought all the emperor's home star control hubs were unmanned cities. Later, when I talked to Sandora, I knew that I was a special case: Sandora's home star hub was much more lively than here, and Gaia's The hub has only a small number of conventional garrisons, and the rest are self-discipline machines that she directly controls.

This control hub is so huge that it is completely different from the small and powerful processing equipment of the empire (such as the Schilling host). This is because in the old empire era, it needed to manage not only a planet, but also countless worlds. A city-like huge computing facility is not large, but now, 80% of the functions of this hub are in a state of shutdown. If you look around, you will find that all the silver and white buildings are in charge. There are blue energy lines floating on it, but there are only a few sporadic buildings with truly flashing lights, and a small part of these buildings is the adjustment device of the parent star itself-you can see how often Gaia is free Panic.

As soon as Sandora and I arrived at the control hub, Gaia's attention was immediately noticed. A small group of self-disciplined machines floating in the air like octopus mumbled and mumbled the common language inside them, leading us not far away. In a small square, Gaia Square is waiting for us, surrounded by a large circle of self-discipline machines crawling around-it seems that this is the scene of her life on Jupiter when she is bored on weekdays.

We already explained where we came when we teleported, so Gaia didn't ask much after seeing us, but nodded plainly.

"About my current situation," the translucent image of the light blue è in front of my eyes reached out and gently stroked a self-discipline machine swimming around. The latter seemed to feel it, and murmured comfortably. , And then flipped over, the octopus-like multi-purpose robotic arm opened into a projection array in the air, and then opened a holographic image of more than one meter. "This is the structure of the parent star. The two majesty should be familiar."

Sandora and I nodded.

"This position is the control center. The big 'city' on the parent star is actually a servo array. The port where I interact with the outside world is on this array. At the same time, it is also a storage area for 90% of my information." Gai Ya was not anxious to say that many self-discipline machines under her control were the same as the first machine, with her belly facing upwards around us and unfolding a lot of holographic images.

I opened my eyes and looked at these pictures in shock: they seemed like a documentary!

More than a dozen video screens are playing around us, but what is displayed is not the numbers and charts I have used to see on these Schilling devices. It is the same thing as many live video recordings, and there are a lot of complicated and unknown technical symbols, but Jia makes it easy for me to understand. There is a busy operation dispatch center, a large group of imperial technicians passing by, a reactor that bursts with dazzling sparks, and a continuous stream of spacecraft, but these are not things that make me stunned. It really makes people hard to calm down at a glance. Yes, familiar faces appear for a long time in several pictures.

Pandora stood on the podium with a blank face, with a mild smile, but obviously Araiye, and Gaia, who stood quietly inside a crystal prism, surrounded by a halo of light-not the present This pale blue figure looks like a real girl with beautiful long hair in lilac, bright eyes with the same lilac, wearing a white dress.

In addition to them, there are also some familiar faces flashed, but after the faces of the three Pandoras appeared on the screen, my attention was not focused on others. Sandora looked at the images looping around, and said a long time, "Is this the video from the old empire?"

Gaia nodded: "Yes, this is the image data left when I carried out a research project, and I lost my body after that research project failed."

Although Sandora and I had speculated, they still had their eyes wide open at this time.

Gaia talked about what happened that year, this is the first time I heard the full story of this incident from her mouth: "Gaia, full name is distributed array Schilling host machine-Gaia type, I The latter parent machine, which was once the host array of the old Empire distributed array, as recorded on the image, I used to be the same as the bubble ... "

When he said it, it was a big news.

But Gaia didn't give me too much time to digest this information, because obviously all she will say next is bombshells. If I digest one by one, I might digest it next month, so she continues without saying : "There are many different models of Hilling machines, such as Bubbles. The special name should be" Hive Co-Processing Hilling Machine ", but these should not be your concern." Gaia pointed out very politely I understand the lack of power.

"The Gaia-type Schilling mainframe is the latter model of the distributed array mainframe, and I am the prototype of it, and it is also the only Hilling mainframe to be put into use. The reason is very complicated. In short, Gaia changed from a series code. It became my own name. And that experiment was part of a scientific research project that was carried out at the time. "

"At the end of the great expansion of the Empire at that time, the Apostles of the Holy Spirit gradually reduced the war of conquest of the world, and instead concentrated on researching the technology of further strengthening their civilization. Further research on their own spirit was one of the many research projects at that time. One of the powerful Spirit hosts, I acted as the computing mother node in the sky area. At the same time, I was also the first test subject to undergo transformation. Because of the special life form of the Spirit hosts, our spirit **** can tolerate various This kind of transformation, and strong self-healing ability, plus I am a Schilling host, I can record first-hand data better than other subjects ... "

"Then ... the test failed?"

I asked cautiously.

Gaia nodded silently, and a four-legged automatic machine floated over with a holographic projection on its belly. Some very messy pictures appeared on the projection, as if there was a huge disturbance when shooting. On the top are broken crystal prisms, the host's "plug" slot that is constantly flashing the alarm light, and the girl who is gradually dissipating into light spots, and Pandora who is holding a group of researchers on the ground and preparing to be shot one by one-Ah, who looked dull Rye stopped it.

"Do you usually watch these things?" I looked at Gaia and the automatic machine that was playing the disaster scene with a strange expression, and I was a little nervous and painful. What a good girl you say, just let inhumane experimentation It ’s a psychological hazard-I usually live alone in this huge empty city and watch my death video. Is this something that ordinary people can do?

"I usually don't look at this. This is what Her Majesty wants to see. I usually look at the central ten sets. Those jokes are fun." Gaia replied earnestly, and suddenly I was silent.

Under the explanation of Gaia and Wenmao, Sandora and I have already understood what happened in the original experiment. After removing the parts that I do n’t understand ... well, there is nothing left. Anyway, I only know one Thing, they want to transform the spirit **** of the apostles of the spirit, so that their own spirit **** will be immortal, but this transformation ultimately failed, the mutant spirit **** did not strengthen at all, but was inexplicably erased some kind of "concept ", It becomes incompatible with any kind of body. If you compare it with an example, it seems like you want to optimize your mother, and when you optimize it, you play off. The mechanical layer code of the mother jumps directly from binary to thirty. Binary, but all computers in the world are binary mechanical codes, so your mother has since become a lone **** wild ghost, which can only be turned into a wisp of memory in your mind ...

This is what Gaia did. Her spirit **** was transformed into a completely unreasonable appearance, as if the binary system was programmed with thirty binary. Since then, anything that can be called a body cannot accommodate this spirit hun.

The only good news is that although the body is no longer compatible with Linghun, the technology of the Spirit Empire has not let her die. Those scientists who nearly let Pandora shoot out in a row eventually found something similar to a translator. Gaia ’s spirit **** was transferred to this mother star in a data way. Most of her data storage control center, and some difficult to understand concepts ing and the whole planet are combined into one. This is the current Gai Asia.

So the question we are concerned about is: Is this process reversible?

No one has forgotten the original purpose of our visit to Gaia. We are not here to observe the recording work. We intend to arrange a corpse return to Hundra's old subordinates.

But this idea was actually poured with cold water when Gaia talked about her experience. As she explained the reasons for the incompatibility of Linghun little by little, cold water gradually transitioned to ice water. It can be said that when When Sandora and I took a little extravagant hope to ask whether this process is reversible, the two of us have actually followed the Heilongjiang winter swimming almost: from the top of the head to the feet.

Sure enough, as I already guessed, Gaia shook his head without hesitation: "Of course it is irreversible, otherwise I will not be like this."

I took a look at the translucent ghost image of Gaia's light blue, thinking that her quality projection is difficult to use because of the different bases. I think it is also: if the process is reversible, is this girl in front of the sky as a movie? ?

"That's tantamount."

I yanked the corners of my mouth, shrugged her shoulders helplessly, the other side lowered their heads for a long time and said quietly: "In this case, I am afraid they will really not accept it."

For the Spirit apostle, there is nothing more difficult to accept than this: it has become a piece of information that can't do anything. It has consumed an amazing supply of energy every day to maintain its own existence. There is even a large group of leader bees. I am responsible for maintaining myself every day, and live a real rice worm rice bucket life ever since.

Gaia can still perform her duties after losing her body because she was originally a Spirit host ~ www.readwn.com ~ What she has to do has nothing to do with the battle. As long as there is a sufficiently powerful auxiliary servo array, she can continue to work His former job, and what about those veterans of Sandora? They are all warriors, and the only thing that will happen in tens of millions of years is to fight. You give them a star-sized server and they can't study anything that the Master of Spirits understands. The spirit of the Apostles of the Spirit is not the same as that of humans. Their "origin" determines too many things. A manufactured apostle is determined by the future racial horn. A soldier trained to the limit will not understand scientific research. A researcher everyday After going to the front for a thousand years, he could n’t fight an officer. Pandora only grew one centimeter in the past tens of millions of years. Sister Scorpion said that she would rather not heat up her blade. Sikaro was the only stranger. He In addition to fighting, I learned to look at palms and sell pirated disks ...

Thinking of this, I can only sigh with Sandora.

But-still this lovely vocabulary, but Gaia's sudden voice seemed to give us some turning points.

"Your Majesty, in fact ... the -15 Grand Overseer has communicated with me once, and he has an idea about the future of the 100,000 veteran of the Avengers ..."

(Guess what happened to the Avengers?) R! .
