The Star Knight

Raymond was silent for a moment, and Opal could also hear the deep meaning in Recter's words—let Raymond not think about whether he is a clone or a human, and just act according to his beliefs.

So what is Raymond's belief?

"Teacher." Raymond said, "What do you think is Horius' belief?"

Rector frowned slightly, Opal said: "Teacher, you also know that. Horius' original intention is not to destroy all enemies."

Raymond exchanged glances with Opal, and Rector said, "You inherited Horius' last wish?"

Raymond nodded and said: "I regard myself as a human being, the next successor of Horius. I hope that human beings can leave a place for the Wisdom Legion, and the Wisdom Legion also has its own living space."

Rector shook his head disapprovingly, and Raymond said, "It's like in the middle of the Dark Ages, when Horius reached an agreement with Kalb, and humans and the Legion of Wisdom ceased fighting, and there was no problem."

"You don't understand." Rector said: "You and Opal think too simply, things are not what you think..."

Opal: "Then tell us, teacher."

There was another long silence, and Rector said: "Replicants are not human beings. The Star Alliance still does not recognize them as a population of life with their own intelligence. This is very complicated, including their lifespan, inheritance methods, and gene mutations. Possibilities, and the group's sense of identity with humanity."

Opal said: "If every clone that already exists has a different face, just like Raymond, you see...you see."

Opal went over to break Raymond's face, pinched his ears, and shaped his eyebrows according to his eyebrows, saying, "It doesn't look like Coroline."

Rector smiled helplessly, this behavior finally made the atmosphere a little more relaxed.

"I think there is a need for mutual understanding between us and them." Raymond still said seriously. At this moment, his tone was sincere, and he even used the title "we" to separate himself from the Legion of Wisdom Come.

Rector said: "We have thought about everything you can think of. In the middle of the Dark Ages, Grebini was imprisoned by Kalb in this way. Horius also died in the defense of King's Wharf because of his kindness. .”

"But not every clone wants to fight, I think..." Opal said: "Teacher, just like us humans, sometimes the start of war may not be the common will of all individuals."

Opal discussed this issue with Rector very carefully, not because he was afraid of him getting angry, but out of respect for him from the bottom of his heart.After all, this has already involved Rector's principles and beliefs.

Reckert said: "Then give me a reason, give me a guarantee, give me a person who can shoulder all the responsibilities, he must have enough weight, and after making a decision, he can deal with a series of subsequent problems. Otherwise I will I will still stand my ground.”

Speaking of this, Rector's meaning is already very clear.

Opal and Raymond looked at each other, and Raymond said: "Let's go back first and see the situation at King's Wharf."

"Prepare for the jump." Opal said, "Destination, King's Wharf."

The combined machine in the defense tower state jumped at the same time, and when it arrived at the King's Wharf, it separated suddenly. At this moment, most of the battleships had been withdrawn, and the planetary defense system of the entire King's Wharf remained empty. The three shuttles turned into near-earth sports cars and flew towards the Great Aerospace Association.

There is a tense atmosphere on the entire planet about the future of the enemy. Rector quickly ran into the Great Astronautics Association. Opal found that the Imperial Army had left. Corolin didn't know if he was still in the association.

In the Great Astronautics Association, adventurers are filling all the atomic furnaces with new energy stones, the central reactor is restarted, and the energy supply is gradually being restored from the association to the whole star.

"Where are those imperial people?" Opal asked, "Where did they all go?"

"War is coming! The Republic declares war on the Empire!" Someone said: "Something has happened! The presidium is meeting on the second floor."

Opal said, "Where's the big trump card?"

"Let's go." Another person said.

People came and went around, all with solemn expressions.

"Hasn't the communication frequency been connected yet?" A staff member shouted.

"Connect now!"

There was a sound of swishing, and all the light screens in the hall of the association lit up, and then gathered from all directions towards the center to form a three-dimensional projection grating. When the screen lit up, a female anchor was broadcasting the news, with two spaceships and the king in the background. There was no sound from the pier and the Saintess Fortress outside Lie Xing.

"Turn on the sound!"

Opal always felt that something was wrong. Three seconds later, the female anchor's voice sounded:

"...discovered the remains of the clone legion in the Dark Ages, showing signs that clones have once again invaded human society. Alex, the prince of the empire, refused to express any opinion on this matter. The Republic submitted a report to the Star Alliance, demanding that the Lion Star Empire hand over its research and development Marshal Rotman denied all replicants in the world and destroyed the replicant technology."

All the adventurers stopped what they were doing, stood up straight and looked at the screen.

"The prince of the opera, Rajson, disappeared in the female star a few days ago, and according to the testimony of the witnesses, he was identified as having participated in the research and development of replicants..."

The whole hall exploded in an instant, Rector's expression was very complicated.

"The situation in the abandoned ruins shows that multiple clones have entered the human activity area, and the following are the characteristics of clones."

The first person is projected in the light screen.

"Crylaus ben Azeroth. Former Mercenary King of the Burning Star."

"Iran Artemis. No.12 is the Archbishop of the Holy See."

"Horius. Major Brilliant, God of War."

"Ji Shakes, the nineteenth king of Shakes."

"The above are the clones that have been discovered, and there may be more in the future. The Star Alliance hereby appeals to the residents of all member states to be vigilant."

In 20112, the most serious conflict between the Republic and the Leo Star Empire broke out since the end of the Dark Ages.After thousands of years of silence, replicant technology reappeared in human rumors.

All forces are ready to fight, and the most nervous one is Lie Xing, after all, there is the previous Lie Xing King among the replicants!

Lie Xing immediately asked the empire to thoroughly investigate the truth, and the Republic's aircraft carrier sailed to the middle of the Star Alliance to propose conditions to Rotman.Rotman denied all inside information, the two sides were at war, and the war was imminent.

The Great Astronautical Association integrated all the information, and Douglas submitted an earlier report, which indicated that Alex had traveled to and from the Lava Star many times, and used polygonal silicon crystals to develop technology for replicating human chips. The Great Astronautical Association's defection was complete. After the situation was reversed, the Republic began to require the entire empire to thoroughly investigate the replicator technology, and removed Rotman from his post for investigation.

Rector reported all the information to the Great Astronautical Association and the ambassador of the Republic, including some of their speculations, the history of the incident, its cause, and the estimation of the remaining combat power.The other side just replied briefly: "Understood, Rector."

Rector said: "Kashtlan, this matter is serious. I hope the government of the Republic will take countermeasures immediately."

"I have no way to interfere with the decision-making of the parliament." The ambassador of the Republic to the Empire said: "But I will give your report to Karens. As for what actions they will take, I really have no control. I have to go, friend. "

The ambassador of the Republic to the Empire took off his hat and saluted Rector. The time for the severance of diplomatic relations between the two countries was imminent. The spaceship of the diplomats of the Republic used the King’s Wharf as a transit point. Kashtlan boarded the ship and left after saying goodbye to Rector.

"At a time like this, humans should gather together." Opal frowned and said, "Why doesn't their focus seem to be on this at all?"

Rector looked at Opal for a while, and said, "It's strange? It's always been like this. Even during the short rest period between Horius Force and the Wisdom Legion, the human coalition forces still couldn't do it in unison. The Lion Star Autonomous Prefecture In the peace talks, the interstellar community calls for war."

Rector and Opal returned to the Great Astronautics Association, and the rumors of Horius' resurrection spread throughout King's Wharf. The adventurers did not see Horius' resurrection that day, but saw the dark green saber-toothed tiger mech across the sky .

This is tantamount to giving everyone a reassurance, at least when the replicant army makes a comeback... no, they don't necessarily come back.

Because the empire has completely denied this matter, and pointed out that the Congress of the Republic spread rumors, and at the same time the country began to investigate all suspicious signs, Emperor Kaltus finally came forward and denied the existence of the clone army.And the Republic demanded that the Empire hand over Legison and thoroughly investigate the matter.

The situation is extremely tense, and the strings on both sides are tense.

Rector's tracking clues were cut off at the second base. According to the information Raymond got from Kyle Ray, there are still two replicant bases in the universe, one of which is a black box planet left over from the Dark Ages, and the other One, even Raymond didn't know what was on it.

On April 4th, the war between the Republic and the Empire finally broke out. The Republic intelligence organization found a third base ahead of Rector.A firefight broke out in Andromeda with Imperial search ships.

"It's up!"

When the two countries went to war, it broke the general pattern after the end of the Dark Ages, and the entire interstellar world was shaken.

"Let's fight!" Many adventurers gathered in the hall and yelled, disregarding the task.

Opal looked up at the battle image on the projection, the Republic's small warships filled the space and began to attack the empire's territory.

No one expected that the Republic would be the first to start the war. Another light screen played the declaration of the President of the Republic: "...the tragedy of the Dark Ages cannot be repeated. The anti-human experiment carried out by Kaltus will definitely Being sanctioned, today I once again appeal to all members of the Star Alliance and the Dark Alliance to boycott the research and development technology of replicants..."

Opal said: "Teacher, do we want to join the war? Stop their war?"

Rector said: "No, what we have to do now is to find the last replicant base. As long as we find out the whereabouts of Kyle and the black box, everything will be solved. Now humans are about to win, and the four bases have been destroyed. Found three."

Lei Meng has been staying in the data room these days, checking all the way from the magic blue fluorite to the dark age, hoping to find clues about the base. Opal already has a bit of a headache. The vast amount of data is so dense that it is impossible to analyze it.

Rector's investigation process also came to a standstill. At this moment, everyone seemed to be desperately fighting for time.

Opal thought over and over again, and connected to Iszur's communication.Some adventurers have already discovered the resemblance between Raymond and Corolin, so Opal can only say that they simply look alike.After all, only the presidium saw him on the day the big ace appeared, and fortunately, the presidium did not ask, as if it was some kind of acquiescence.

Opal knew that Douglas might have guessed something, but he had no time to ask the chairman for confirmation.

"This is the central government affairs department of the Meteor Building." Allen's voice replied, "Long time no see, Opal."

"Long time no see." Opal breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where's the teacher? I need to talk to him."

"He has not been in the grip of the light recently." Allen said: "He has ordered that if King's Pier is in danger, you can return to your home planet at any time. At present, Iszur is the safest place. You can take any of your friends Bring them all..."

Opal pondered for a moment and said, "Thank you, the situation at King's Wharf is fine, I want to ask something else. Is there any military plan in Iszur recently?"

Opal spoke so bluntly that Aaron couldn't answer for a while. Opal knew that in this case, asking around the bush would have the same effect as directly asking questions. He would definitely say what he could know, and ask no matter what he couldn't. It is impossible to reveal the wind.

After a brief silence, Kaiser's voice said, "I'll talk to him."

"Opal." Caesar said, "How are you doing recently? I heard that you are with His Majesty's teacher?"

Opal took a deep breath, thought for a while, and said, "Yes, but we have some differences of opinion. I have the information on the clone base here, and now I will pass it on to you."

Opal sent the information to Caesar through long-wave communication, and Caesar said: "Your Majesty is not in Iszur, but after a while, there will be military operations on the Anubis."

Opal said: "I need to know which side Iszur is on in this war."

"We will stand on the side of the Republic." Caesar said: "But no agreement has been reached with Li Wei. I guess His Majesty is preparing for this."

Opal breathed a sigh of relief.

Allen said, "Let me see, what information? My God."

Opal said: "The information is very important. There are no photos of King's Wharf. Please keep it secret."

Allen: "It's terrible... When did this legion appear?"

Caesar: "I guess His Majesty already knows."

Opal said: "How can the Meteor Corps help the Republic?"

Kaiser said: "The specific strategic goals have not been determined yet, and we need to wait for His Majesty's order."

Opal thought for a while, nodded and said, "Good luck."

Caesar said: "Opal, if King's Wharf is in danger, go home and live for a while."

Opal said wearily: "Yes, Chairman Douglas hasn't joined the war yet, we can exchange information at any time."

He turned off the communication, thought about it, and contacted Lie Xing again.

Xun: "Opal, are you in the Great Astronautics Association?"

Opal: "How's the situation?"

"It's very bad." Xun said: "The empire couldn't produce any evidence, so they did it directly. The Republic said they got another piece of information. I have many fathers. This is simply... too ridiculous."

Opal said: "What about Liexing? What do they say?"

Xun said: "The national entrustment has been issued, listen, Opal, they also suspect another thing, someone saw Corolin in the last war..."

Opal was startled.

"They said that Raymond and Corolin look alike." Xun said, "I told them that it's just that they look alike, and there's nothing wrong with it. There are many people who look alike in the universe, um, that's it."

Fortunately, Opal Xindao was lucky, and Xun said: "Rosen took the warship to search the empire's territory and the deep space area. The Republic said that there is still a base. That is the most important place, where all the technology is preserved, isn't it?"

"Listen, Xun." Opal said: "It's like this. The teacher calls it a black box. I suspect that the final base is not in the empire area. You can look for it in another target."

Xun said: "Oh no, Opal, if I were them, I wouldn't leave any clues to be found, you know? Rosen discussed with Karens, and now Karens is the main force of the Republic Army. Containing the Rotman Legion, Cullens led troops to the empire to find possible insiders, most of the mercenaries were dispatched, and Urka and the mecha team stayed in Liexing."

Opal said: "Okay, if you have any information, be sure to contact me as soon as possible."

Xun said, "Okay, that's it."

Opal cut off the communication and stood thinking. Raymond's voice said behind him: "Is there any progress?"

"No." Opal said, "I can't find Coroline."

Raymond asked, "What about in the dream?"

"Not in the dream." Opal looked up at Raymond.

These days, Opal is almost acting together with Raymond, but Rector is alone. Both sides are inferring what will happen next in their own ways, but the sudden interruption of the clues makes it impossible to predict the battle situation.If there were no words relayed by Raymond, Opal even wondered if there were only three replicant bases.

"The confrontation between the Lion Galaxy Empire and the Milky Way Republic is expanding. Most of the members of the Star Alliance have joined the war. The Meteorite Legion has not issued a declaration. Once the Meteorite Army joins the battle, the Lion Star Empire will face the dilemma of fighting on both sides at the same time..."

The sound of the news attracted the attention of many people.

Rector stood in the hall and looked up at the projection area, his eyes full of doubts.

"Why doesn't Corolin fight?" Opal asked, also a little puzzled.

Raymond said, "He's waiting."

Opal: "Wait for what?"

Raymond said he couldn't guess either.

Opal thought for a while and connected to the third communication.

Pastor: "Let me tell you Opal, no one can persuade you. I am not the pope..."

Opal: "Oh, I didn't come to persuade you, I found your teacher."

Pastor: "Where?"

Opal: "The ivory tower test site, on the body of the clone of Cologne."

The shepherd's side fell silent, and Opal said, "Can you sense him? We're looking for the next base."

The pastor said, "No, there really is such a thing? I always thought it was a smoke bomb from the Republic."

Opal said: "How is it possible?!"

Shepherd: "How is it impossible? Li Wei and Tifeng supported Baroque's supremacy, Alex lost everything in the Star Wars, the Republic threw out trump cards one by one, and now even Rotman can't win Stop, I don’t think there is any base at all, just like Rotman said, it’s all the tricks of the Republic..."

Raymond said, "No, Shepherd, yes, I'm sure there is."

One is more unclear about the situation than the other, that's enough. Opal has nothing to do with these guys. The pastor seems to have a few discussions with the archbishops over there, and then asks: "Is there really those clones in Azeroth?" Uncle didn’t tell me anything. Cultus will let Baroque inherit the throne soon.”

"Yes." Raymond said, "Remember to let us know if you get any news."

Opal said: "Listen, Shepherd, after the end of the Dark Ages, the Legion of Wisdom left their black box. This black box may be an asteroid, or a spaceship, or it may be an object outside the star map. Base, we have checked all the star maps of the Great Astronautics Association, but we have not found this base."

The shepherd said: "But in the last battle of the dark age, as long as the replicants in this cosmic space are destroyed, aren't they?"

Opal said: "That is to say, what if there were a large number of replicants who were not turned on at that time?"

The pastor was silent for a while, and then said: "Alex is applying for asylum from the Holy See. I guess he has given up and wants to come in and become a bishop. I will ask him after Marshal Rotman sends him here."

"Yes." Opal said, "When Alex arrives at the Holy See, be sure to notify me."

The pastor said, "Okay, let's interrogate him together."

Opal cut off the communication, thinking about poor Alex...

Lei Meng sat on the sofa, still flipping through the star map information page by page, and said, "What do you think is preserved in this black box?"

Opal said: "It may be the headquarters of all replicants. I suspect that the base found by the teacher like the ivory tower test site is just a branch of it."

Raymond said: "I don't understand. It is only a few years since Kyle Lei escaped."

Opal said, "It shouldn't have been more than six years, remember? Jimison only let Kyle Ray out after Jamie died."

Raymond groaned and said, "How did he build so many bases in just a few years?"

Opal said: "Is there a lot? There are only three... plus the technology he left behind..."

Although Opal is not very clear about clone technology, it feels unrealistic to establish several bases in just a few years.

"The ivory tower said." Opal said: "Kairleh was hiding on the Wheel of Time, and came back after the end of the Dark Ages, and built the test site that made you... Maybe he still has helpers? Who is this helper?"

Raymond said: "He hid on the Wheel of Time, so no one discovered his identity?"

Opal said: "So Corin asked us to investigate the whereabouts of the wheel of time, but the clues were interrupted..."

Opal vaguely noticed something.

His breathing seemed to be stagnant, and he tremblingly opened the three departure materials of the Wheel of Time.

Guang Era 3779: The Wheel of Time returns for the first time.

Guang Era 3790: The Wheel of Time II set off for the second time, and Logan participated in this plan as one of the navigators.

Guang Era 11293: The Wisdom Revolution broke out, and the replicants captured the entire universe.

Light era 14284: Judgment campaign, which lasted 2971 years of dark age ended.

"Before the trial battle." Opal said: "Kairleh has already escaped from this universe and went to the wheel of time."

Raymond said: "Based on time, it should be."

"So since at least 14284... Kair'leh has been on the Wheel of Time," Opal murmured.

Guang Era 15330: The Wheel of Time returns for the second time.

Guang Era 16008: The Wheel of Time departs for the third time.

"I know where the last black box is."

At this moment, Opal's body no longer belonged to him, and a bone-chilling chill rushed down his spine. If the last clone base was the wheel of time... then everything would be perfectly aligned.He didn't even dare to speculate about the process, as if the inside story contained in it would overturn all his cognition, and even completely overturn his life.

Raymond got up and walked towards Opal. Opal looked at his hand, Raymond, and the world around him in disbelief, feeling dizzy in his mind.

Kyle Ray entered this exploration ship before the second return of the Wheel of Time, and returned with it 700 years ago, returning to the four-dimensional universe again.

Later, Logan started the Wheel of Time to set off again. If Logan at this time is no longer the navigator Logan who drove the Wheel of Time at the beginning...

Opal didn't dare to think about it any further, but he had to think about his mother's fall on the B-11 star, her secretive expression about the past... What happened on the Wheel of Time?

If Kyle Lei kills the navigator Logan on the Wheel of Time and uses the Wheel of Time as a base to create a new clone Logan, then he is...

Kyle Ray came back after the second return voyage. It took them 700 years to revive the Wisdom Empire, and it was definitely more than just four bases.

A sense of crisis welled up in Opal's heart, he turned and ran out of the hall.

"Opal!" Raymond shouted.
