Xiling Empire

Chapter 1311 Fragments

(...What, I just remembered that there may be double monthly tickets at the end of this month... It seems to be quite cost-effective to save monthly tickets until the end of the month, right?)

The Xiling Apostles have always been calm, but they also have moments of excitement - things involving their home world and the origin of the race are undoubtedly situations that are enough to make them excited. [This article comes from] Anyway, this is the first time I have seen a calm person like Shandora in such a hurry. The report from the engineering team made her eager to rush to the scene in the next second, as if she was afraid of being delayed by a few seconds. It would be like missing the opportunity to solve the mystery of the origin. But despite this, I still tried to calm her down for a while: at least I have to tell my family, right? As soon as we set off, we will go to the far reaches of the empire.

After hearing about the findings of the engineering team, my sister and the others also showed extremely strong interest. However, except for Bingtis and Qianqian, everyone else said that they could honestly stay in the rear and look after the house. Sister Bing and Qian Qian have always been people who waste their lives if they don't join in the fun. As soon as they heard that they were going to remote areas for inspection, they immediately joined in. Qian Qian can handle me, and Bingtis can handle Sando. La, the two of them squeezed into the team.

And finally we have to bring along an unexpected little guy: that little puppet is also clamoring to follow.

"Idiot, you haven't taken me out to play for a long time!" The little doll fluttered onto my shoulders, holding my head and pulling it back and forth, and said confidently. She was already a completely charming daughter. form.

"We're not here to play." I couldn't help but explain to this willful and hot-tempered doll girl how important the origin of race is and how different it is from going out for an outing. "There are only asteroids there." Come on, you don’t have any nice clothes or a Barbie suit, so you have nothing to do in the past.”

"That's your problem. Anyway, I have to follow you." The little doll wanted to wrap it around my head in a ball shape, as if she were a hat. "Otherwise, you won't be allowed to hold me in the future. Go to sleep!"

There was a spray in the living room, and if it hadn't been for a doll-sized creature that said this, there would have been a fight at home by now. I silently looked at Shandora Qianqian and Lin Xue, thinking that I had three girls who could take turns sleeping in my arms, and I was afraid that you, an SD doll, would not be a threat - but I did not dare to say this in the end, because I saw The little doll grinned next to her face, revealing her iconic one-sided small tiger tooth. The little girl's threat is clear: Even if half of her teeth are broken again, I will hang myself on your face!

I looked at Sandora who was packing up Bingtis and asked with my eyes if I could take this little guy who suddenly started to pester me. Sandora nodded without thinking much: "Take her with you. It has indeed been a long time since I took this child out. The engineering team has already explored the route. Although the destination is in the distant frontier, it is far away from the territory of the fallen apostles, so there is no danger."

I picked up the little doll and put it in front of me, and told her very seriously: "Okay, I'll take you with me. We must first agree to be obedient on the road and don't mess with the samples of the engineering team and the equipment of the scientists. This project very important……"

Before I finished speaking, I heard a crackling sound coming from behind me: it seemed like a group of naughty children rushing towards me with a breath of destruction. Looking back, sure enough, Lilina, Little Bubbles, Husca, Little Crow, and Pandora, who was being dragged into battle, were already lined up in front of him.

I had an ominous premonition at that time. As soon as Lilina opened her mouth, her premonition came true: "What do you think? I'll just say it's okay to let that doll face explore the grass, right? If she opens up the situation, we can all follow..."

Little Bubble, Medivh and Viska immediately looked at Lilina with admiring looks and nodded in agreement. Pandora silently moved half a step to the side and glanced at me with her gray eyes. Said the matter had nothing to do with her.

I:"……"

The little doll on the shoulder looked confused, but I had already guessed what was going on. It was probably Lilina, who had a lot of clever ideas, who fooled the little doll into stalking her and trying to follow her out. Among the several girls, the little doll is the most suitable for this role: from personality to body shape, it is suitable for the delicate and savage route, and as soon as I let go, Lilina has a reason to bring a group of naughty children to join in the fun. This is The story of a little doll who went to a minefield angrily and was sold, paving the way for a group of sisters: and among the sisters there was also an aunt who was dressed as a lolita.

"Come along." I waved my hands to these guys who were worried about the world being in chaos with a heart-broken expression, and then the group of little girls suddenly dispersed like a festival: they might have gone back to their rooms to tidy up what they thought they were doing. It's useful "luggage", although I don't understand what kind of luggage should be prepared for a trip to an asteroid belt. Should one person carry a mining machine to mine titanium from meteorites?

"Boss, they are doing good things," Lilina suddenly whispered as she walked past me. "The last time I took all the children on a long trip was a year ago. They don't care if you take them. Whether they are going to the asteroid belt or a resort, they just want to go to a place they have never been to with you."

I smiled, of course I could think of what Lilina mentioned.

The origin of the race, the home world, the mysteries of history - the children at home don't care about these. They only know that their father has not taken them out to play for a whole year: you can't ask a group of children to understand other things. What a high level of consciousness. As a father, it is basically the stupidest thing you can do to explain to your children how busy you are at work so you don’t have time to spend time with your family. The children will not understand and are unwilling to listen. Their world only consists of parents and play: if you If you don’t accompany them while they only have you in their world, then sooner or later you will find that their world has everything but you.

Fortunately, I feel that this group of naughty kids in my family who do nothing but pester people will never have such a day. Look at Xiaoxue as a vivid example. A seventeen-year-old girl who was born in the army. When she grew up, she was already a fleet commander when she traveled through time and space. She entered the rebellious period at the age of three and it has not ended yet. But after all of the above, she is still a naughty girl who pesters her parents for pocket money - so even if There is an end to the void, and I think there will be no end to the efforts of these girls to pester people.

Oh, there's still good news here. Xiaoxue was ordered by her mother to learn lady etiquette at home, so she couldn't come with her. Otherwise, our trip to solve the mystery of the origin of our ancestors would be very lively...

Half an hour later, we were already on our way to the distant frontier. In order to rush to the scene as quickly as possible, we did not take the Imperial Admiral this time, but chose a high-speed void cruiser. The escort fleet was an elite frigate in the royal fleet - it can be said that we traveled lightly. It is quite rare for members of the royal family to travel without a heavy escort formation, but considering that the engineering team has confirmed the safety of the route before. In addition, before departure, Lin Xue gave us a fortune telling (isn't this strange?) to confirm that there would be no danger in our trip, so Sivis, who was responsible for arranging our trip, didn't say much.

The only surprise of this trip was that we brought a bunch of noisy little girls with us. Half of them didn't understand the meaning of the home world and the secrets of their ancestors. These little guys came out just to play. Especially the little dolls and little crows. The former has not been out in a spaceship for a long time, and the latter has not seen much of the world. These two were running around in the cruiser, and I had to send a few soldiers to follow them the whole time to prevent them from getting lost. .

"Shouldn't I bring these little girls with me for such a serious matter?" I looked at Visca who was lying on the ground competing with Little Bubbles to draw little green men, and couldn't help but cover his head and said . Viska should be the only Xiling apostle on the scene who really has no feeling about the "mystery of origin". This most alternative Xiling apostle in history seems to have no ancestral memory or concept of hometown. She has no feelings about the origin of Xiling. Basically, she expressed her disapproval of this action throughout the whole process, even when she saw the material of her hometown. She also acted very heartless.

She is not as good as Little Bubble - Don't look at Little Bubble lying on the ground drawing little green men, but this is because her child's nature is taking over at this moment. If she puts the hometown substance or the original body into In front of her, this little guy would still stare blankly for a long time. Then he made a lot of comments. Little Bubble's memory core also contains records about her ancestors and her home world. Although she doesn't quite understand what our operation is about. But she also seems to have a sense of mission.

Although now this little girl with a sense of mission is indeed still drawing little green men...oh, now she has started to draw little gray men.

"It doesn't matter." Shandora had returned to her usual calmness at this time. She looked at the children and smiled, "You can't demand the silence of the group just because of one person's solemnity - the 765th year since I ascended the throne. The core idea is Apostle Xiling’s efficiencyism and de-formalism.”

Me: "Oh..."

Although we were fast, there were still several hours before we arrived at the excavation site. Out of boredom, I opened the fleet's real-view detection window and studied the scene outside. There is only endless void outside the Order Field, and there are only frigates moving in formation inside the Order Field. At first, this scene seems quite unclear, high-tech, low-key, luxurious and connotative, but after watching it for a long time, it becomes really monotonous, but as I When he was about to turn off the monitor, a huge black shadow suddenly flashed across the screen.

I was sure that there was no frigate of this shape in my fleet, so I quickly ordered the probe to track the black figure that had just flown by. When the latter was fixed in the center of the monitor screen, everyone in the crew cabin was stunned.

A giant crow several hundred meters long is flying around in the order field. On top of the crow's head is riding a small black-clothed Gothic girl. The Gothic girl is only more than ninety centimeters tall. Riding on the top of the giant crow is It was as inconspicuous as Ding Dong sitting on my head.

Then I heard the hurried voice of the royal guard responsible for taking care of them coming from the communicator: "Your Majesty! The second princess and Lord Crow God are missing!"

The corner of my mouth twitched: "Uh... I saw them. They are in high spirits. You guys hurry up and pick them up from the order field!"

That mindless bird and that lawless puppet girl actually ran out of the spaceship! And they are flying around in the order field...

At that time, I felt that I really underestimated the naughty child's mobility. I should have known that once a crow god with a weak brain and an awkward child with a not very well-behaved personality formed a combination, sooner or later there would be trouble. The Order Field is not a good place to mess around. Although it is a "safe environment" that provides void shelter for the fleet, it is only separated from the void by a thin line. What if that stupid bird...

As soon as I thought of this, I saw the doll girl riding on top of the giant crow happily patting the crow's head under her butt. Then the pair of combinations drew a gray shadow in the order field at a speed that made people unable to react, and disappeared.

No matter what they were afraid of, they rushed outside the order field!

"Oh shit!" I jumped up from the chair, "These two crazy girls!"

Qian Qian and Sandora were also shocked. At that time, they were about to order the fleet to stop pushing and hurriedly went to "salvage" the two crazy girls. The danger of the void environment made a group of parents confused at that time, and there was a burst of chickens flying in the crew cabin. The dog jumped, but that's it. Bingtis coughed twice suddenly: "Don't panic, it's okay. It looks like you are so concerned and confused."

I looked at this female gangster who was still calm up to this point in a panic: "Those two crazy girls ran outside the order field!"

Bingtis rolled his eyes at me: "So you have forgotten that your family is no longer afraid of the void?"

Me: "...Oh, that's right."

"Tch," Bingtis continued to lower his head and read a book, "that bird was able to fly around in the void when it first became a god. The little doll has been influenced by you for so many years, and of course it can survive in the void now. You have to learn to adapt. These: Sooner or later, girls like you will go running and playing in the void all day long, and our children of the God Clan often do this."

"It sounds so scary," Sandora sighed sincerely, "I really can't get used to it for a while."

Little Crow's innate ability is to travel through the void, at least one of her innate abilities is this: it's unclear what she can evolve into in the future. So I am really worried and confused. Maybe for that stupid bird. Now it is just her daily walking time. Normally, the little crow has the habit of going out and flying for a while every day, but I never know where she went, now that I think about it. This fact is probably very shocking: that bird probably wanders around in the void every day - it can be judged based on the familiar route she took when she flew out of the Order Field just now.

Look at this level of walking!

At this time, Sandora, who had been staring at the monitor, suddenly tugged on my sleeve: "Look, they are back."

I took a look, and sure enough, there was a black shadow emerging from the chaotic clouds at the edge of the order field. This was a sign that another smaller order field was merging in. After a few seconds. The black shadow turned into a huge crow, and the cheerful little puppet still sat on top of the crow's head. And in the crow's talons...he held something tattered.

"The little bird seems to have picked up something." Qian Qian pointed to the holographic projection in front of her in surprise.

After a while, the two problem children who went out for a wild run were ordered by me to return to the cruiser. By the way, we recovered the broken metal plate that the silly bird had picked up - it was confirmed to be a special piece that had been almost assimilated by the void. alloy.

Regrettably, the little doll and the silly bird did not realize that their reckless actions made others worried from the beginning to the end. After these two problem children came back, it was as if nothing had happened, and they maintained an uneasy feeling. Explanation with elation. The doll girl climbed onto my shoulder with ease and swung her feet back and forth, like a spring doll that couldn't rest. The little crow said hello to us and ran to Qianqian to ask for candy. eat. Seeing two heartless and crazy girls, I instinctively wanted to use my parental initiative to educate them, but before I could say anything, the little doll on my shoulder suddenly pulled my hair and started shouting as if asking for credit. : "Idiot, idiot, go take a look at the treasure we found! You will definitely be interested!"

I blinked: "Well, did you suddenly run out of the order field just to pick up that thing?"

The little doll nodded vigorously and continued to sway on my shoulder like a spring doll.

I quickly grabbed the little crow and asked carefully, and then I realized that the two girls really didn't go out to have fun: Medivh somehow sensed that there was "something" outside the order field, so she took her people with her. My sister flew out and wanted to pick up the thing. The reason why she didn't say hello to the adults was entirely because Silly Bird didn't think there was anything wrong with this behavior at all: She started flying around in the void not long after she was born, and her innate ability to be immune to void damage made her basically immune to void damage. She didn't understand how dangerous this place was. In her opinion, her behavior when she ran outside the order field just now was similar to her usual behavior of running from the house to the yard to dig up rocks and bring them back...

"It seems that this bird has more abilities than we thought," Bingtis said with emotion as he looked at the little crow that I let go and was happily jumping up and down in the cabin. "She can rely on instinct to see directly. The other order fields in the void are more powerful than your ship’s radar and my concubine’s divine power.”

"Xiao Xue said that the future Crow God will be the 'Messenger God' in the Xiling God System. Maybe this messenger also contains the ability of a scout," Sandora nodded, "Let this one go first, and let that one go first." What on earth did the bird pick up?"

We gathered around a metal fragment the size of a door panel, trying to identify its origin.

It is the reason why Medivh just broke out of the Order Field: a twisted metal plate that looks like it has almost been assimilated by the void. Due to the erosion of the void, the original color of the metal fragment must not be visible. Now it shows a chaotic luster, with uneven surroundings, and it looks like it has experienced an explosion. A slight golden light floated in Sandora's eyes. She scanned for half a minute and finally analyzed the metal fragment that had almost completely lost its original properties.

"It seems to be the armor plate of the imperial starship," Sandora frowned, "It looks like this from the material. Super alloy treated with psionic energy. Only the imperial starship will use this material. Other civilizations do not have this material. It is a technology, and only this kind of material can persist in the void for such a long time. It looks like it was destroyed not long ago, and there are still some residues in the deep layers that have not changed its properties."

"On the Imperial Starship?" I was quite surprised. "It seems that the engineering team that set out a few days ago did not report any damage. Our spaceship has never traveled on this route."

"...I have a bad feeling," Sandora bit her lower lip, "This thing reminds me of the fallen apostle..."
