The No. 1 mixed score king in the whole server [StarCraft]

Millie swiped her card to open the special channel, and when she quickly entered the conference room, it was already full of people.

Her breathing was unsteady, and she went straight to the point: "What happened?"

Seeing her, the observer was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly, and tremblingly said: "Professor, look."

Millie looked up, and saw that the short 1-minute picture was being played in a loop countless times on the projection screen in the center.

That 1 minute recorded the sudden brightening of the red-brown planet, and recorded the whole process of how the probe from the main star was pulled into the abyss by the inexplicable gravity, and finally disappeared out of thin air.

"what is this?"

Millie felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her pupils dilated.

The screen keeps looping.

A looming black outline is forming around the red-brown planet.

The observer said: "We have detected an inexplicable gravitational force, and now we have contacted the main star. The imperial military has sent people to study and investigate."

Millie is the highest person in charge, tilting her head: "What does the government say?"

The observer said: "The Fierna star government has opened the planet's emergency protective barrier."

Millie paled and nodded.

The emergence of inexplicable gravitational forces will inevitably disturb the trajectories of planets and some suspended objects in space. The worst result is that Filna's star will continue to receive impacts from foreign celestial bodies for a long time.But none of that is what she fears now.

Millie stared intently at the brown planet.

TI90.She recorded its data day and night in the Black Tower, and suddenly felt that it was extremely strange at this moment.

In the picture, the small detector is like a puppet being manipulated, out of control, spinning strangely to the depths, disappearing into the darkness.

"This gravitational force is a bit like a black hole."

At this time, an old voice sounded at the door of the meeting room.An old man walked in, he was old, with gray hair, looked up, the light on the screen fell on his wrinkled face, but full of seriousness and earnestness.

His voice was like a boulder falling into water.Not only Millie, but all the oasis researchers present had their brains shaken and their bodies were chilled to the bone.

"Black hole?!" Millie reacted quickly, her face was pale, and she spoke quickly: "Professor Impossible, this cannot be a black hole! TI90 is just a planet! Its mass is not enough at all! How could it form a black hole!"

"No weapon can make an object disappear into space out of thin air." The old man's tone was calm, his expressionless face kept his eyes on the screen, he stretched out his finger, and said hoarsely, "Millie, do you see that black place? It's the horizon. Then Time in one place has begun to warp."

Millie tensed up: "Professor, the quality of TI90 is simply not enough to distort time. There must be something wrong with something we don't know."

The old man looked at her tolerantly and calmly, with a hoarse voice: "Mass? Do you really know its mass? TI90 was originally a wandering planet, and it came to the Milky Way after losing the orbiting star. For so many years, Oasis has done countless investigations around it. , after the plan was terminated, no one has landed on its surface. Do you really know what happened to it? Even, can it still be defined as a planet now?"

Millie was silent for a moment, before retorting with a pale face: "Professor, I still don't think it's a black hole."

Her mind went blank, trying to force herself to calm down.

It can't be a black hole.How could it be a black hole.The formation of a black hole is enough to completely destroy the entire solar system and the entire human civilization.

This is not possible.....nor allowed.....

With compassionate eyes, the old man said softly to his student, "Relax."

Millie's hands and feet were cold and trembling. After listening to his words, she took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice: "Professor, I have been observing it from the tower. I can tell you with certainty that TI90 cannot form a black hole. It is not a gas planet and cannot swallow the surrounding planet. The energy and the hydrogen content in the core cannot start nuclear fusion so far, and its lifespan is at least 1000 years. Even if it collapses at this moment, it is just a normal planetary death, scattered into large solid celestial bodies." Millie looked at the teacher quietly : "We have done countless studies on it, and specially built a black tower on its surface that goes deep into the earth's core. These data will not be wrong."

The old man looked at her quietly, he was calm and gentle: "If you don't want to accept that TI90 is forming a black hole, then Millie, you need to accept another result—someone is artificially creating a black hole."

Millie breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words before her, but her face turned pale when she heard the words behind: "Teacher, what are you talking about?"

The old man: "As I said, there is no radiation or man-made weapon that can make an object with mass disappear out of thin air in the universe. Disappearance - it enters the invisible horizon and jumps time or space. It can be done All of these are black holes. Even if it is not a black hole, this thing is also a gravitational bomb, and it will be the end of mankind when it grows up."

Millie's lips trembled: "But there is no abnormality coming from the Black Tower."

"The Black Tower." The old man sighed softly, his eyes seemed to pass through the time, covered with years of wind, frost and silence: "Millie, do you still remember who the creators of the two black towers are?"

For a moment, everyone in the meeting room fell silent, because of the name that could not be mentioned.To build an observatory that penetrates directly into the earth's core on TI90, a planet with a harsh environment, is not only expensive but also complex in design, which requires extremely high requirements for building materials and energy processors.The difficulty is beyond the current imagination of human beings, and the empire should give the task to the person beyond the limit of human imagination.

"Lexia..." Millie murmured, something cracked in her heart.She looked like she was about to collapse.

The creator of the Black Tower is Laishia.

Oasis, an elderly man, has been relegated to the second line for many years, and he only appeared in front of everyone when he heard the siren.

He pushed open the window, his hands were brown and wrinkled.

Outside the window of the meeting room is the tower that goes straight into the sky on Star Firna.

There is a butterfly pattern on it with a dazzling golden light.

The old man said softly, "That's right, it's Laishia."

The white butterfly flew to the windowsill.

The old man said to himself: "Who would know what Laishia is thinking?"

"Professor! Professor!" At this time, the scientist who was in charge of handing over to the main star outside the conference hall came in panting. The source of the gravitational wave is the black tower, the black tower on planet TI90!"

Boom—Millie suddenly looked up, the building in her mind was shattered, her whole body was crumbling, she staggered and took a step back.

The reporter continued: "Now the empire has activated the photon transmitter to radiate frequency waves nearby to interfere with the formation of gravity. However, the black tower is still continuously distorting the surrounding space-time, and the gravity is getting stronger and stronger. The simulator deduction, five days After that, no light can escape!"

No light can escape!That is "black hole"!

Everyone has not yet digested the bad news.

There were two hissing sounds, the picture on the screen was suddenly forcibly stopped, the communicator was turned on, and a ruthless officer appeared on the screen. No one would be unfamiliar with this person.

The supreme leader of the army, Marshal Andre of the Osment family.

Andre said: "What about Xu Wanzhi, tell him to come see me."

Planet Firna cut off all external information.After opening the emergency barrier, external magnetic waves cannot enter.The mobile phone fails, the computer fails, panic and tension permeate everyone's heart like the tide.

"what happened?"

"Why is there no signal all of a sudden?"

"The planet has opened the first level of alert, are we being attacked?"

"What shall we do now."

Fear is spreading.The current oasis can only maintain order on the surface. In fact, everyone is anxious and heartbroken like ants in a hot pot.

And on other planets in the solar system, people go shopping for beauty, browse forums, watch TV, eat and chat, talk, laugh and fall in love, and it is as plain and real as usual every day.No one knows that not far away, a reddish-brown planet is devouring everything.

The world is about to go to night.

The rich colors of Filner's dusk are like an oil painting.The sunset glow is sandy red, and the air is full of dust and fine ash, like gunpowder smoke in ruins.

On the way back from the hall, Lin Jing saw a white hyacinth growing by the roadside.

Lin Jing is no stranger to hyacinth, after all, it is his mother's favorite flower.I have been fascinated by it since I was a child, and I also have an inexplicable kindness to it. Seeing it in a foreign land is like seeing a relative.

He walked over.

Lin Jing squatted down and said, "Did Laishia bring you here?" It was not so much a conversation with the plants as he was talking to himself.

"She was such a strange person."

From the moment he set foot on the oasis, he seemed to be living in Laishia's memory.

That beautiful aunt in a black dress and black gloves on a rainy day is becoming more and more real in Xu Wanzhi's understatement.

Lin Jing actually has no extra emotion for Laishia.

She is a sinner of the empire, but also a victim.

No one can forgive the entire empire for her, but no one can forgive her for those who died in the Aurora explosion.

This is an unsolvable topic, and the only thing Lin Jing regrets is Xu Wanzhi's mother.She once tried to give all her tenderness to her children, but in the end it ended with a firework.

The setting sun is like blood, and the sky is as thick as an oil painting.

Lin Jing raised his head in the shadow of the tower and smelled the smell of gunpowder.

gunpowder...

He looked up, and heard a deafening explosion.It sounded far away from the oasis, that place is Rhodes.

boom--

A hover vehicle was hit by a weapon, and the instant explosion hit the city hall like a fireball.

The city hall was blown up in an instant, and countless fragments were scattered in the smoke and dust.

The crowd screamed and broke into chaos.

"Retreat! Urgent retreat!"

The officer on the patrol plane yelled at the top of his lungs.

First, the planet's first-level alert was opened, all external information was cut off, and then there was a sudden explosion in the city hall. The residents of Rhodes are now completely at a loss.

A black-skinned girl with braids hid in her mother's arms, felt her trembling breathing, and asked softly, "Mom, is this the end of the world?" "No." The woman's lips turned white, she covered the child's eyes and followed the officer. Walking to the safe area, she said, "Alensay, hold my hand tightly."

"It is reported that the city hall was attacked by terrorists, 20 people were killed and [-] people were seriously injured. All the people have now been evacuated to a safe place."

"Have you found out the reason?"

"Report, preliminary investigation is a long-range photon weapon."

"Stop Rhodes."

"Yes."

In the exclusive suspension car owned by a certain privilege of Rhodes, the mayor's son held the steering wheel with one hand, and put his arm around the waist of the beauty beside him.

He tilted his head and said triumphantly, "Baby, let's go to the oasis to take refuge now. The strongest protective shield on Filna Star is there, and the impact of meteorites will not hurt us."

The woman next to her was wearing a red dress, outlining her perfect figure, with a charming smile: "Honey, I love you so much, thank you for saving me."

"Then when the time comes, you have to reward me well." The mayor's heart was itchy, and he tilted his head and kissed her.

The woman in the red dress smiled but did not speak.

Her black hair flutters.The setting sun, ruins, and lingering gunpowder are behind us. The shopping mall next to the city hall has been emptied, but the music has not stopped. The soothing and soft piano music is like the last torch of civilization on the wasteland after the explosion.

This is not the first time Xu Wanzhi has met Andre.

In fact, everyone in the Osment family is trying to appear in his life.

Marshal Andre's expression in the communication video is unprecedentedly serious.

"The answer given to me by the Academy of Sciences is that the Black Tower is now based on the core of TI90, continuously creating gravitational force. The simulator shows that when the gravitational force exceeds the peak value, it will become a black hole with a Schwarzschild radius enough to swallow the solar system .”

After Xu Wanzhi heard it, his expression didn't change a bit, he said, "Really, that's a pity."

Andre was choked by him, and the invincible and ruthless marshal's expression froze for a few seconds, and then he showed a tired expression: "Wa, I know you hate Bernard, but the others are innocent. Now the Empire side It has been completely messed up. In order not to create panic, we temporarily blocked the news. A meeting on this incident will be held soon. The creator of the Black Tower is Laishia. If she caused everything, then maybe... only You can handle it."

Xu Wanzhi smiled when he heard this.

Andre always feels speechless every time he faces this nephew.

He is also at a loss for his sister.

In order to persuade Laishia to agree to the brain reproduction project, they once took her to the cemetery.

He can still clearly remember the dialogue and scene at that time.

father said to her.

"Lexia, the ancestors of Osment are all sleeping here, with the same blood as ours. The belief they insisted on until their death should now be passed on to us. From birth, you and I should always remember it. The family motto, we live for honor."

"We have enjoyed the inherent dignity, and we should pay something."

"Lecia, you are no longer a child."

The irises were solemnly blooming in the drizzle, and Lycia quietly raised her head and said softly, "Honor."

"Yes, honor." The father said: "What you think now is too simple. Your child will appreciate you when he grows up. This kind of sacrifice is not only for the family, but also for the empire, and for mankind. His birth is The greatest miracle, just like you."

Lycia was holding a black umbrella at that time, and the lace on the hat half covered her deep purple eyes, looking down at the irises planted in the cemetery, as if she was thinking about something, her voice blended into the rain: "Like me? "

Now Andre recalls that rainy day, feeling depressed and ironic.

For the sake of their outstanding mental strength, they forcibly deprived Laishia of her emotions, and when she needed to make sacrifices, they bound her with family affection and honor.But would a person who couldn't even be loyal to humans be bound by his family?

Andre stared at Xu Wanzhi, and said bitterly: "We did something wrong to Laishia, but we have already been punished. All this is over."

Xu Wanzhi paused for a moment, his eyes were dark, and he raised his head.He smiled, and said calmly: "I'm actually curious, how many emotions have been added to me in your imagination."

"What?" Andre froze for a moment.

On the communication screen, the young man has a tear mole in the corner of his eye. He has inherited the outstanding appearance of his parents, but his temperament is as cold as a handful of snow.

"After so many years of secret observation, haven't you come to a conclusion yet?"

Xu Wanzhi said lightly.

"Even hatred is imposed by you."

"Actually, any decision I make has nothing to do with the empire."

The slender fingers pressed the hang up button.He seemed to be just bored, lowered his eyes, his eyes were indifferent and sarcastic: "I think you can stop those interpretations of me."

The last comment was as cold as a cold pool.

"Stupid enough to laugh."

Andre's pupils widened for a moment.The communication was hung up, and the last picture was the back of the young man turning around, like an abyss.

When Xu Wanzhi went out, he happened to see the explosion in Rhodes City Hall.

Mushroom clouds float in the air, washing away the sunset.

The deafening sound of the explosion rang in his ears, and he calmly looked away, without stopping for a moment.During the period, I met some scientists at the base and tried to say hello when I saw him, but in the end I dared not speak out because of timidity.

Lin Jing was still observing the hyacinth when he was suddenly stopped by a small assistant, who took him to the top of the base.

This is the first time he set foot in the core area of ​​the oasis.

"sit down."

Lin Jing saw Brandt here, and the politician with dark green eyes smiled at him gracefully.Beside Brant was a colonel-level officer, presumably the highest officer of Star Filner, with a particularly gloomy expression.

Lin Jing was still hesitating whether to say hello or not.

Brant has already cut to the chase: "Little cutie, you may need to cooperate with us for a while."

Lin Jing was at a loss: "Cooperate with what?"

Brant winked at him, his smile was always convincing, and he seemed like a well-rounded person.

It's hard to imagine that such a person would be an enemy of Bernard, who overshadows the sky in the political arena.

Brant: "Cooperate with us and wait for your boyfriend to complete the plan."

Lin Jing: "..."

Lin Jing: "Are you kidding me?"

"No, I'm not kidding," Brandt said. "Honey, we now have the revenge of a mad genius. Only another genius can end it."

Lin Jing's thoughts turned, and he guessed the root cause of the current series of anomalies almost instantly: "Is it Laishia?"

Brandt continued to smile, but his expression became much more serious: "That's right."

Lin Jing said, "Why should I cooperate with you?"

Brandt shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't know either. We hope you can persuade him well."

Lin Jing was a little confused when he heard this.

"What can I tell him?"

Brant said nothing.

The officer next to him said coldly: "Persuade him to let go of his prejudice against the empire."

Lin Jing really wanted to laugh at this moment.

He put the book in his hand on the table, sat up straight, his shirt outlined his tall waistline, and raised his dark brown eyes, extremely cold and serious.

"bias?"

In fact, Lin Jing has never been a well-behaved temperament.For many years, following the rules is just pretending to be obedient in front of the elders.He dared to set down the fireworks at the imperial banquet at the age of five. Since he was a child, he has never been afraid in his bones.

"Sir, I think you made a mistake. It was never Xu Wanzhi who was prejudiced against the empire, but the empire was prejudiced against him."

The officer remained silent with a cold face.

Brant was frightened by his current aura. After he realized it, he immediately acted as the middleman and comforted him: "Don't be excited, cutie. I apologize for what Colonel Green said, but this is also forced by the situation. Don't worry about it. .”

Lin Jing smiled, and didn't buy it at all: "He was talking about my lover, how could I not take it to heart. And it doesn't need to be called an empire, it's just a few high-level managers who have lost their minds. During the meeting, did they think about the situation today?"

The officer glared angrily.

But Lin Jing looked back quietly.

Brandt sighed and tilted his head: "Green, let me communicate with him alone."

Green got up and left without hesitation.Lin Jing and Brandt were left face to face.Lin Jing leaned back, his aura also subsided.After hearing those things from Lilith's mouth, he had a natural affection for Brandt, and he was not so aggressive.

Brant said, "You must know all about what happened back then."

Lin Jing: "Yes, I got it. Knowing that their plan failed, I became angry and wanted to kill Laishia's child."

Brandt sighed: "Although I was the opponent at the beginning, I can also understand that they are for the whole of mankind. A person who cannot have a loyal 3S spiritual power is a bomb to the empire who does not know when it will explode. "

Lin Jing: "Do they still think that the bomb explosion is only caused by Laishia herself?"

Brandt was taken aback.

Lin Jing said with a sarcastic smile: "I learned from my mother that the original trend was that when the brain development plan was proposed, some sociologists raised objections based on the argument of 'humanity and rights', but those high-level officials fell into the ' God's madness, don't listen; after realizing that Laishia's empathy ability is not strong enough to cultivate loyalty to human beings, some scientists sounded the alarm, thinking that they shouldn't spend too much on Laishia, those The higher-ups still didn’t listen; after arranging Laishia’s career and marriage later on, they also wanted to arrange for Laishia’s children. For the first time, an indifferent person like Laishia strongly resisted, and they still didn’t listen. So the matter developed to Aurora exploded. I have been thinking that the newspapers and media said that Laishia is a double-edged sword, but who turned the blade step by step to face the empire. And there are so many times when the knife can be retracted, and finally this situation is caused , who is at fault."

Brant didn't speak, and after a long silence, he said, "I thought the same as you at the time, but the danger of the knife has been exposed, and they won't want to take risks."

His dark blue eyes stared at him tolerantly.

"Why would you gamble on the life of a child? Bet on the entire empire, bet on the entire human race. Since the risk can be stifled from the beginning, there is no need to spend extra financial and material resources to avoid it."

"That's exactly what Bernard said. Although it's cold, you have to admit that it makes sense."

Lin Jing didn't speak.

"Just because it makes sense doesn't mean it's right," Brandt said.

"Bernard is actually a very obvious utilitarian, even too extreme, towards the authoritarian side."

"Whether one life should be sacrificed for the sake of more lives has been an ethical debate since ancient times. There is no right or wrong."

Lin Jing smiled, and said softly, "Yes, there is no right or wrong. What you thought of, Laishia also thought of."

Brant fell silent.

Lin Jing has been reading Laishia's notes these days when he is bored.

She has no empathy ability, but she understands all human emotions, just like Xu Wanzhi.

Understand the trade-offs humans are supposed to make.

"So, the explosion in the depths of the universe was really not her revenge as you guessed."

"That was just her farewell to the baby."

"Laixia's revenge is far more terrifying than the Aurora explosion."

"If you had voted at that meeting to kill her child, you would regret it now."

"Marshal, even if we land on TI90, we won't be able to stop the Black Tower."

"why?"

The main star, a scientist said palely and tremblingly.

"Because, Laishia has set the highest authority to open the black tower. Its requirement for spiritual power is..." The scientist's voice became lower and lower: "3S."
