Star Empire

"I need to explain some more things."

As he spoke, Cavinriel took off his gloves and folded down the high collar.

At this time, Cavinriel no longer concealed his current appearance.

His neck, face and hands had been invaded by strange gangrene. In those areas, the original normal body tissue has disappeared, and pink ulcers and disgusting glue are gushing out from the wounds caused by gangrene and dripping down the body.

"Is there no solution?" Looking at Cavinrel's bloody palm, Victorville was silent for a while before asking.

"No more." Cavinriel shook his head. Even though the movement was very slight, there were still two balls of mucus thrown by Cavinriel on the table.

"I once directly saw the giant meme, and his appearance once appeared in the "nine days" opened by the Σ Quadrant continent. The erosion and infection I received were all-round." Cavinriel smiled bitterly, "I also I don’t know why, when the entire empire melted into a pot of porridge, I was also melting into the pot of porridge, but I saw the outline of the giant meme. From that time on, I was completely exposed to the influence of the giant meme. The impact and pollution are gone.”

".Cavenriel, do you really not need our help? We can consider-"

"No, it's really useless. It's not necessary. If I really need help, I can ask you at any time in these nearly two trillion years. It's really no need, Your Majesty." Wei. Srifan wanted to say something more, but Cavinriel raised his hand with some difficulty and politely rejected Srifan's suggestion.

"At least, I don't have any regrets now. Through everyone's cooperation, the rotating emperor system has become mature. At present, the empire can change the rulers of the regions in peacetime without causing turmoil. No matter which rotating emperor While on duty, the production and living work in the region can be carried out in an orderly manner. Even if two-thirds of the entire empire's management personnel are killed, the empire can still maintain operation at full status. It is already good to be able to do this."

As Cavinriel spoke, he spit out a lot of mucus from his mouth again. The mucus was also mixed with a lot of fine golden particles and golden flakes - those may be his original "body tissues". "When I proposed this plan before, you all thought it was strange. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Narrative Singularity. Davox Kryze."

"It's me, Your Majesty." Kriz nodded, "What kind of stories do you want to tell?"

"Some stories from outside the territory, but don't worry, the pollution will not spread with my words. I can still rely on the rest of myself to neutralize the impact of that unlucky thing." Although he said this, Kavin Riel still imposed more isolation and shielding measures on himself.

At the same time, several more layers of shields and a dim film of light appeared on Kryze's body - part of it was supported by the power of Narrative Singularity itself, and part of it came from Vidoville and Vesrifan. remote projection.

"First of all, I must talk about something related to false information. It is related to our future. This future may be in the distant future. But it is entirely possible for us to get to that time, so I must make it clear first - Your Majesty You guys, there are still narrative singularities, you must pay attention to the bridge-building actions of Σ civilization and pay attention to "building bridges."

"I still can't tell the details of this, and I still don't know why my perceptual guesses tell me that this is important. I have had many dreams. I dreamed of clouds falling from the sky, and clouds carrying storms falling from the sky. Down, I dreamed that the sky was falling and the earth was convulsing and shaking. Finally the flood receded and the steam formed clouds again, but the earth had completely collapsed."

"You must remember false information. Although it can guide future research directions, and studying its properties is conducive to the development and progress of the empire within a certain stage. But you must not forget that it is not a good thing in nature. Don’t rely too much on good things, and resist when necessary.”

As he spoke, Kriz began to become out of breath, but he became more and more excited: "I know I can't understand, and I don't know why I said that. Your Majesty, Wu Bu I know how important the words I have said can be, but I hope you will remember it. Even if it is regarded as a meaningless dogma, don't let these words be buried in history. Really. Sometimes things will come to an end. It's too late to find a solution."

"Don't worry." Vesrifan and Vidoville stared into Cavinriel's eyes. Under the latter's gaze, they nodded firmly and confirmed: "We remember."

"Well Kriz. You want to continue writing the story for the empire, right? If all the existing books are burned." Cavernrel looked at Kriz again.

"Remember to guide the story well, and tell everyone not to be too conservative in their understanding of void and order, and don't deny the correctness of speculation just because it exceeds the current common sense. Order is vast, and void is even wider. Order is just a part of the infinite ocean. A small island, and what about us? How great of a being can we, or even Σ, be?”

"Your Majesty Cavinriel?" Kriz frowned. He could clearly feel that the character of Cavinriel was shaking violently. Now he looks like a slime-covered pinball on a trampoline, and it seems that he may be "popped" at any time.

"There are nine levels in the sky now, so who can stipulate that the limit of the ninth level is the top of everything. Ah, hey, hey, you must remember. There is still a long way to go. We are just It’s just a beginning, don’t think too highly of yourself, there are still many things that are beyond our reach, there are still many.”

"Cavenriel?!"

"I'm fine, I'm fine" Cavinriel waved his hand with difficulty. "I need to take a break first. Guys, all my words come from the bottom of my heart. You can't take them seriously, as long as you can remember what I said, even if you just remember. I know that persistence without benefit will eventually lead to no way out. It’s too long, but we must retain some persistence and dedication and don’t let our descendants blame us for being short-sighted and narrow-minded in the future.”

After saying that, Cavinriel quickly put on his gloves, raised his collar again and tightened the hood of his cloak, and left in a hurry under the gaze of the remaining people.

After Cavinriel left, the final focus of the meeting shifted to the two emperors of the 44th Day District.

"The anti-emergence ritual has been strongly questioned. Now, without tearing up the current situation, we have no better way to relieve you of the pressure." Vidoville patted Hopkins on the shoulder. "——Please hold on a little longer."

"Of course, Your Majesty, we will persist." Hopkins nodded subconsciously.

During the conversation, Kriz noticed that the condition of the two of them was much worse now than when he went on his last cruise. The long-term nightmare entanglement and tremendous pressure left obvious traces on both of their bodies. Hopkins looked barely okay, at least he looked "tired" rather than "sick."

But Istana, who has always been by his side. If he hadn't known that she also had a powerful extraordinary body and all-round protection at the level of an emperor, Kriz even felt that the angel with a waterfall-like long silver hair in front of him was A district emperor-level individual may really fall down in the next second due to a breeze, just like a dying mortal whose life is like a candle in the wind.

"The book-burning agreement is about to be drawn up. According to the current experimental results, the entity we plan to create can effectively protect the free chaotic consciousness. Wait until the light circle order cohomology algorithm and non-existence independence are applied to this entity After all the transformation group matrices are debugged, this entity can enter a state of combat readiness." Istana said while trying hard to maintain her mental state, "We... guarantee what we do."

"Um."

"Your Majesty Weisrifan, can you please tell that story again? That's it." Istana thought about it for a while before remembering the second half of her request. "That's it. The one with the theme of 'hero', 'murderer' and 'dagger'."

"Once upon a time, there was a world that was in a serious crisis. Because of the crisis, that world was about to be destroyed. And among the people in that world, there was a person with extraordinary abilities. Those who were touched by him would be transferred to a naturally beautiful place with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. In the new world, in the original world, this person will die. This person with super powers understands that the world is about to end, so he is racing against the doomsday. He wants to send as many people as possible to safety and peace. new world life”

"In these two worlds, the image of this man is completely different. In the old world, he is regarded as a madman, a murderer, a monster and a public enemy. In the new world, he is regarded as a ferryman, a pioneer and a hero."

"So, Your Majesty Weisrifan, do you think these two completely different images will merge into us?"

"I believe—it will."

"klhd543151 - Please go and repair the tower's signal switching equipment and signal amplification equipment - they are out of order again -"

"It broke down again?! If I remember correctly, I have only been here for three years, but I have already built seven hundred and twenty-five towers! You are really giving me face, you are afraid that I will not get training, right? ?!”

"We didn't do it - there's nothing we can do -"

"Come on, if it wasn't you who did it, then who did it? There are so many Void Celestial Towers working in the void. I have never heard of any tower that breaks down every three days and becomes like this!"

In the main control room of a certain Void Celestial Tower, the tower's supervisor and the maintenance technician started a new round of maintenance quarrel.

"It's really troublesome. I can do as much work as I did in millions of years here in one year, but this tower's receiving equipment and amplification equipment break down every time. There's nothing new about it." klhd543151, who couldn't resist the supervisor, shook his head. , he casually snapped his fingers, and a layer of thick protective equipment was neatly put on his body.

"Okay, I'll go see what's going on. If I can't make this piece of equipment work continuously for more than a year this time, I won't come down. Also, supervisor, can you stop playing with those weird pentagonal accessories of yours? ? They are all dropping slag!"

klhd543151, who was standing in the elevator car, couldn't help but frowned. He didn't know why this strange supervisor started to awaken to such a strange hobby. Moreover, this supervisor seemed to have started to develop an interest in his hobby recently. It went even further - before he only occasionally wore the pentagram.

Although in my opinion, the pink color of those accessories is a bit strange, but considering the rich, diverse and inclusive culture of the empire, it is not surprising that I like this kind of thing.

But recently, the supervisor's actions have become more and more exaggerated - he has hung a large number of pentagrams, pentagons and other ornaments on his clothes, and he has also changed the patterns on his clothes. It turned into a very weird-looking hand. The five fingers of that hand were evenly distributed around the palm, and those fingers were all too long and twisted.

Moreover, as the number of ornaments increased, klhd543151 began to find that there were often some strange debris and slime on the ground of the control center, which seemed to have fallen from the director's ornaments.

"Is it rubbish? I haven't noticed it, but to be honest, I really think the five-spoke symmetry is very beautiful, very beautiful! klhd543151, do you really not want a five-pointed star medal? This thing has the same function as the previous reward medal. It’s the same, the empire recognizes these things——”

"No." Seeing that the supervisor actually wanted him to wear those weird accessories, klhd543151 directly pulled the switch and closed the car door with a bang.

The elevator passage runs through every location of the Tianji Tower. Theoretically, you can reach all workstations in Tianji Tower by taking an elevator. However, for safety reasons, thick armored partition doors are set up at regular intervals in the elevator's operating channel. The partition door will only open when the elevator passes by. Once the elevator passes the corresponding position, the door will be locked instantly. Cut off the channel again.

"Gu Long - Gu Long -" Waves of slight echoes penetrated klhd543151's perception from time to time. klhd543151 likes the sound made by alloy materials very much. I don’t know why. When I am in the control room, I always feel that the footsteps of the supervisor and several other operators are strange, as if they are slapping the ground with wet and sticky objects. .

At the same time, the debris falling from the jewelry is also very strange. At first glance, they seem to have nothing abnormal, but as long as you stare at them for a little longer, you will feel dizzy. Many of them have the same feeling. The relevant sensors are all sending back weird data.

Moreover, the mucus seems to melt the sight and disturb the consciousness - more than once, I obviously want to see the looming mucus, but in the end, the situation will be changed: the mucus will distort and occupy my gaze, Those slimes will look at themselves with their own released eyes

Things are getting weirder and weirder.

klhd543151 pulled the switch again to open the car. There were two arc-shaped golden arches crossing his head. The arches steadily supported the huge claw-set base, and the "gems" inlaid in the base were moving "upwards." "Projecting a golden beam of light that reaches all the way to the sky and the earth - that is the functional center of the Void Tianji Tower.

"Check the cause of the fault. Damn it, is there too much instantaneous information that triggered the fuse mechanism of the equipment? Also, dangerous information with high pollution was detected. In order to ensure communication security, some functions of the Tianji Tower were urgently stopped. What? This kind of malfunction happens every three days?"

A protective panel automatically opened after receiving the command, and klhd543151 was able to view the work logs and work details recorded by the Tianji Tower in the automatic state. And the results he found made him feel

It's hard, the fist is hard.

"The size and prosperity of the area that this tower is responsible for can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. No, the redundancy of this tower follows the concept of unlimited anti-crowding. To put it into an overload state, the amount of instantaneous information required is larger than the average amount of information. But it’s more than ten orders of magnitude larger.”

klhd543151 starts checking the project log.

Engineering log files are different from content log files that can be directly accessed in the main control room. The main content of the engineering log files is to record the working parameters output by different equipment in the tower when receiving and sending information. These parameters can reflect the tower. any changes in working status.

In these engineering log files, klhd543151 found that the information flow that would cause device abnormalities was marked with pink symbols.

However, at least in my own knowledge, the Empire does not use pink. At least not so long ago, the Empire had not used pink on a large scale

Clearly, something wasn't quite right.
