Chapter 801 Visitors From Mobrado
.The engineering fleet carrying a large number of Xiling hosts and small brood nests set off from the Misty Star and soon entered a state of space invisibility. The Xiling hosts they carried also used their ability to process information to interfere with the Revenge Army. Surveillance of the possible existence of the Mobrador star system. This fleet safely passed through the gravitational boundary at a low speed, and after confirming that no information interference layer was triggered, it turned on full power and quickly moved closer to the ancient wreckage that had been marked by probes.
It is still unclear how much of the fleet lost by the Revenge Army in this battle accounts for their total strength, but according to Sandora's judgment, at least the opponent will not reorganize their attack in a short time, and they may wait for this The Eternal-class mothership fleet, which was severely damaged during the battle, was repaired before taking action. During this battle, the opponent also knew about the existence of the Celestial System Fleet. Of course, due to the short time and always being in a state of saturation bombing, the information collected by those mothership formations was limited. The enemy may only know that we have a powerful system in our hands. The aggregation of psionic energy, but one should not have imagined that it was a Death Star composed entirely of psionic energy, let alone that there was an entire celestial body system serving as the escort formation for the Death Star. Our full strength has not yet been exposed in the eyes of the Revenge Army. lu, and the opponent should also recalculate the relationship with the "intruder" after suffering this ambush.
With the troops required for combat, the Mobrado star system will not suffer a third round of attacks for the time being.
But this is not a good thing. It only means that next time the Revenge Army will probably have to lead a fleet sufficient to fight the psionic Death Star before launching an attack. Sandora knows the fighting style of her old armies clearly. She We fully understand the most terrifying aspect of the Revenge Army's battle: not to take your own life, let alone let others take their lives.
Therefore, if we want to slowly gain the upper hand in this universe, one of the things we rely on is Sandora's "Mist" plan...whether it can succeed, once it succeeds. The main force of the Revenge Army will be scattered everywhere, and they will not have time to gather enough troops to attack Mobrador.
Aegis is far away from its star, orbiting the iciest planet in the star system - even though the lower atmosphere is scorching hot. This is also a dim world. The sun of Mobrado has turned into a reddish-orange soybean when viewed here. The little light it brings is far from enough to make this sun shrouded under 20,000 kilometers of clouds. The giant planet brightens. The largest light source on the surface of the star is the flash in its atmosphere, which is the discharge and "cold burning" generated by the nitrogen, helium and hydrogen atmosphere during its operation. The latter is a natural phenomenon that I find quite interesting. Using scientific theories on earth, I'm afraid it's still unexplainable. The atmosphere of the Mystery Star occasionally produces violent chemical reactions. The trace elements mixed in the gas full of nuclear fuel act as a catalyst, causing the hydrogen to enter a combustion-like state and releasing a large amount of light and heat. But since there is no oxygen involved, this is not a real combustion, and it will not cause the fuel tank full of nuclear material to explode all at once. In fact, in addition to the continuous glow and heat, the " Cold Burn" won't even ignite anything. The duration of this phenomenon is variable, ranging from minutes to years. The most persistent cold-burning spot discovered so far has been "burning" for more than ten years. This is data based on records from Mobrado people. , such a spot often spreads for tens of thousands of kilometers. From the ocean of Fog, it looks like a sun is about to appear from behind the dense clouds: although this planet has never welcomed sunrise and morning glow for hundreds of millions of years.
Some imperial technicians examined the atmospheric composition of the Misty Planet in their spare time, and easily separated the trace elements that caused the "cold burning" phenomenon, and confirmed that it was an element in the capital world (that is, the earth plane where I was born and raised). ) things that do not exist are special substances produced due to subtle differences in the laws of this world. They play the role of regulators in many stars and quasi-stars. Correspondingly, what is common among stars in the capital world Some trace elements cannot be found in the Mobrado universe.
This small discovery didn't make those technicians pay any more attention, because this kind of thing is not as valuable as the golden lump to the empire that has already mastered psionic energy - at least the latter can help feed Sandora.
But just because the Imperial technicians are not interested doesn't mean that others are not interested, such as the large group of old men around me.
This is a relatively special area in the General City Scientific Research Center. The people who conduct research here are not imperial technicians, but scientists from the servant army. The projects they study are not those outrageous high technologies, but some of the most advanced ones in the empire. Technicians seem to have very basic knowledge. This kind of experimental area is vividly called the "Servant Army Preschool". It is actually a place where the scientific workers of the Servant Army study advanced technology under the guidance of imperial technicians. We use this method to quickly improve the basic technology of the servant army, so that their technology trees will not be too seriously deformed because they all copy Xiling technology. The effect is similar to that of a college-graduated tutor leading children to do third-grade exercise books. , I don’t know what the surrounding old men who are highly respected in their own race will think if they know that this idea is spinning in the heads of the leaders around them.
Today some new figures appeared in the "preschool", they are scientists from Mobrador.
The original pope finally realized how serious his mistake had been. He learned about the development status of other vassal races of the empire, and realized that due to his own reasons, Mobrado's technology tree had ceased to exist in name only, and that if this continued, the entire civilization would soon completely lose its ability to progress, so he began to try to remedy all this, first of all It was the Blue Church who announced that it had lifted the "knowledge control" policy that had imprisoned the entire Mobrado society for three hundred years. While it still respected the knowledge of sages as truth, it no longer suppressed scholars' exploration of other knowledge. They no longer denounce knowledge that does not belong to the legacy system of sages as heresy. Mobrado scholars finally regained the opportunity to freely research and express opinions, instead of having to deal with a bunch of sages who have remained unchanged throughout the ages. The relic copied the instruction manual that he had memorized by heart. But everything is difficult at the beginning. The free thought of this civilization has been imprisoned for more than three hundred years. Now it is almost dead. There is no researcher in the world who has mastered the knowledge beyond the legacy of sages. The longest living among these old antiques. It only persisted for more than two hundred years, and it was nearly a hundred years away from the "Renaissance".
Now, apart from the superb "Sacred Knowledge" with no possibility of improvement, Mobrado's own scientific level is still stuck at the state of three hundred years ago, which is roughly equivalent to being able to use their own local technology to convert one or two An astronaut who has signed a life-or-death certificate is sent to a synchronous orbit, and it may not be possible to get it back.
And this fragmentary knowledge is only "historical records". The Blue Church regards them as dangerous ideological trends left over from the old era and seals them in church libraries everywhere. Each library is guarded by several white-bearded old men. Except for the time-travelers who were struck by lightning, ordinary people have no idea that these taboo knowledge still exist. I don’t know if I should praise the original pope named Rudav for this. At least he didn’t put the Mobrado civilization on a down-to-earth basis. The developed natural science and technology was burned to the ground. Otherwise, Tavel would have shown him the power of scientists based on his crime of burning books and humiliating scholars.
In Tavel's view, knowledge is sacred, and the courage to explore knowledge is more sacred than knowledge itself. Even if the knowledge seems to her as crude as the first time a primitive man roasts meat over fire, she will not despise the first person who dares to do so. The primitive people who put their hands in front of the fire, she despises those idiot leaders who are afraid of the source of fire. Not only do they not think about development, they also kick the first primitive scientist who drilled wood to make fire out of the tribe: just like Rudav like this.
Because the basic science and technology tree was completely broken, the existing scientists only knew how to follow the instructions and meticulously press the switches or operate the ancient ruins. Rudav could only organize a group of people who had some understanding of the "knowledge of the old era". The archaeologists asked them to try to reconstruct Mobrado's technology tree. Originally this was something they had to do on their own, but somehow they got Zaku interested, and then Milia became interested as well. Then The little girl not only saw the second battle on the Misty Planet on the information terminal, but also saw many mysterious and unpredictable natural phenomena that occurred on this giant planet. She immediately developed an unparalleled interest in these wonderful knowledge. , strongly requested to come to Misty Star to see with her own eyes whether those beautiful "cold burning" spots, hydrogen atmospheric discharges, 10,000-meter giant waves and undersea castles that appeared in the information terminal were real. I didn't expect that she would be interested in it. I was so curious about these complex phenomena that ordinary people were not interested in, but I still agreed to the little girl’s desperate begging and took her over. The only thing that was a little unexpected was...
When she came over, she also brought with her at least a hundred white-bearded men. They were all scientists on the planet Mobrado who were at a loss to deal with the current situation of civilization!
There must have been secret arrangements by Rudav during this process, and I'm afraid Uncle Zaku also pushed it: After all, they are Mobrados, and they care very much about the future of their civilization, and only Milia doesn't care. The heartless guy doesn't know anything about this. She came here just to watch blockbusters.
But regardless of whether there are two uncles planning behind me, I have no intention of rushing back to these uninvited old men. In Tavel's words, although these "scholars" whose brains are almost dead do not have the skills of scientists at all. qualities, but they at least represent the efforts made by this civilization in the process of getting back on its feet. She is willing to send a few idle researchers and servant scientists to guide these Mobrado scholars on how to learn to explore and discover again, and maybe learn from them There will be Mobrado, the only inventor in three hundred years.
Although all they are doing now is observing atomic nuclei with great interest, scientists on Earth can do this independently.
While the Emperor was busy dealing with Revenge and Excuse, the fact that Mobrado sent over a hundred scientists to obtain knowledge was not something that anyone cared about at all. Shandora even completely ignored the existence of these guys, and Huesca even more It is a clear statement that when the war started, these old men went into the isolation area and stayed there, doing whatever they wanted without caring about death or injury. That is why the group of Kprün scientists who are also conducting research in this experimental area and I who come here to hang out will care about these things. An old man. However, the latter is quite satisfied with the current situation. Scientists should all have this problem. When they devote themselves to the truth, they can be at ease with any environment. In theory, a scientist who is studying the state is simply a monster that challenges the limits of survival. I even doubt it now. As long as these old men are allowed to study new knowledge, even if they are given some sunshine, air and water every day, they can survive tenaciously relying on photosynthesis...
After confirming that these white-bearded uncles were satisfied with the research environment here and that it would not interfere with the emperor's normal operations, I strolled to the small area outside the research institute.
On the platform, as expected, a lively girl with short blond hair was shouting and screaming on the platform. She was so happy that she wanted to pull over: Milia.
"If you dare to shout loudly in the research center, you won't be afraid that Tavel will launch you into outer space."
I sneaked up behind the other person and suddenly said in her ear.
The sudden sound obviously startled the latter, so she really jumped: her head hit my chin, and I bit my tongue on the spot.
"Wow!" Milia looked at me in shock as I covered my mouth and glared at her, "Brother, do you have a toothache?"
I hit the opponent's head: "Don't you have a headache!?" Milia thought for a while, finally reacted, held her head and howled miserably: "Wow! My head hurts! What did you hit just now?!"
1. This should be the composite of Lou Qian and Sylvia, right?
I also somewhat understand Milia’s current elated look. When I first came to outer space, I was no better than her, and the magnificent 10,000-meter giant waves and atmospheric storms on the God of Fog were definitely better than anything else. It is no exaggeration to say that a wave like this one before our eyes would be enough for all the famous directors in Hollywood to win over. If the background here had been used when filming Titanic, Ross would have been at least Otto. Are you from Man?
Milia was so excited by the unimaginable and shocking scene in front of her that she was in a state of convulsions. She pulled me and asked me about this and that, mainly about the principles of these wonders. I didn’t expect that this girl was not only in front of me but also in front of me. I am so interested in the scene that I even want to know how they work. Facing such a diligent and studious girl next door, of course I cannot lose my authority. At the very least, I have to let her know that as the leader of the Xiling people, I also have real talents. Unexpectedly: I took out a copy of "Tens of Thousands of Whys" and asked her to go back and study it slowly.
There is no way, I know clearly where my level of scientific knowledge lies. It is no exaggeration to say that it should be a little lower than Milia. The only thing I am proud of is my kung fu of wielding the king's eight fists in the void. But I guess a little girl won’t be able to use it...
"Brother, do you think there is really a planet under this ocean? Did you use a planet to make an antenna?" Milia lay on the barrier and watched helplessly the huge waves surging below the base. After getting along with her for a while, she also felt sorry for me. Now that I'm familiar with him, I don't even bother to call him by his name. I call him "Brother" with a practiced hand. Fortunately, Sister Pandora is not around.
I nodded, and Milia immediately let out another exaggerated exclamation.
We can all see that Milia is a child with excessive curiosity. This may be related to the fact that she has been carefully kept at home by Uncle Zaku, but now, it is impossible for Milia to be exposed to the "Holy Plate". She is being hunted by people from the Blue Church, and in some respects, she is followed by the most powerful backers in the multiverse, so this girl can now satisfy her curiosity, such as observing storms and researching in giant planets filled with nuclear fuel. star map. I think Qianqian and her will definitely have a lot in common. At least they both have the kind of characters that are curious about everything. If it weren’t for the perfect height difference, Huesca should even be able to talk to Milia. .
I chatted with her for a while on the platform, and successfully dissuaded the girl from the urge to go outside the barrier to feel the wind and rain: she might be looking at the wind and rain outside through an energy shield, which was just a little stimulating, but she was not interested in the mist god. She had no sense of the terrible natural environment of Xingxing. When I told this girl that the air pressure outside was enough to crush a tank into pancakes and the temperature was enough to carbonize people, Milia had a look of horror on her face. This girl thought it was just an ordinary storm outside.
I asked Milia to be careful not to run around, and to ask the imperial soldiers if I encountered something I couldn't understand. After finally settling this restless guy for the time being, I walked up to the upper platform with my arms swaying.
These suspended platforms in General City were transformed from the original central corridor area of the Imperial Admiral. Now they roughly follow the original position, showing a ladder structure rising layer by layer. The research center is on the bottom ramp. It is part of the general transportation network, and people often come and go. The place Milia uses to view the scenery is the middle ramp that is often patrolled by soldiers, and the flow of people is very small. Further up, because it is far away from other places, It's a functional building and almost no one goes up there. Only me and a few restless guys at home go up there to watch the storm when we're bored. It's a ridiculous hobby. There's no good view on the Misty Star.
But this time, when I walked to the upper platform, I found that there were already people here.
On the empty square platform, there is a layer of golden luster that seems to be absent. This luster penetrates into every corner and metal seam of the platform. It seems so thin that it almost disappears, but it is so weird that people cannot ignore it. An energy shield was spread out on the platform, so the golden luster also penetrated into the shield and spread, making the place seem to be shrouded in a golden sky.
The upper platform is the highest point in the entire General City after the command tower. Looking around, except for the command tower looming on the opposite side of the clouds, there are dense clouds all around, so the floating golden shimmer of the platform seems to be suspended. A throne in the clouds. Somehow, I just think of a throne.
The violent storm outside is still continuing, but there is a feeling of complete relaxation permeating the platform. I don't know what is going on, but it seems that everything in the world is moving away from me, including the shield. The disturbing storm outside now seems to be a pleasant sight, and I can confirm that this feeling is very special: when I was a child, when it rained, I would lie by the window and look out at the street. The sight of pedestrians hurriedly taking shelter from the rain made me feel particularly accomplished, but now this feeling was different. Of course, it might also be because there were no passers-by running away outside.
Looking around curiously, I finally found the person who might be the source of this feeling. I was a little surprised. The first thing that caught my eye was a head of long silver-white hair that was almost spread out on the ground...! .
