Chapter 1,125 The Secret of Xiling Host

In this way, we have tentatively finalized the direction of action against the fallen apostles during this period of time. However, the specific implementation details still need to be studied by the expert team of the headquarters themselves - such an important action cannot be done casually. Decision, but Sandora and I no longer need to be personally involved in those trivial matters.

However, everyone knows that this kind of action of spreading suspicion can have very limited effect: one cannot regard one's enemies as fools.

All the illusions we make are to make the fallen apostles think that the mysterious knowledge they suddenly acquired is a "mistake" of the new empire rather than the latter's intentional intention, so that they will think that they can rely on the technology at home as usual. Shulai will surpass us, but as long as there are people among them who are cautious and careful enough and find that their camp has a tendency to be "guided" by the imperial army, they will immediately become suspicious, and they will not stay at home anyway.

Therefore, we must do our best to speed up the transformation of those mysterious materials, and strive to turn them from knowledge in the database into soldiers armed to their toenails in the shortest possible time.

First of all, everyone has a consensus: to restore all the production capacity of Tianjie City as soon as possible - this should be another advantage of us besides being "prepared". We have a set of tools that are not complete but at least still usable. Old Empire production base. Although the capital of the Fifteenth Heaven District was only a fragment of more than one light-year away after the catastrophe, thankfully it retained a large number of imperial facilities. For a new empire that is now building everything from scratch. The remaining production base there is still a huge fortune. Isn't there a saying, the one who suffers is better than the one who is attacked... Ahem, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The production potential of Celestial City has almost been exhausted. This is equivalent to the total production capacity of Shadow Space since its four years of construction.

After Celestial City has basically resumed operation, it should be considered to build replicas of Celestial City—mystical system production bases—in various ruling areas of the capital universe. These production bases can be built together with the empire's existing space bases, or even directly mixed! In the words of onee-sama. We must quickly change our perspectives and habits, and immediately adapt to the current situation where the technological side of the empire is about to occupy half of the sky. I am very confident about this: the powerful innate abilities of the Xiling Apostles allow them to have unparalleled efficiency in "adapting to the new environment". If nothing else, look at that bastard Cicaro...

In fact, when it comes to how to adapt to the upcoming rise of imperial spellcasters, those imperial veterans don't have to worry at all - I refer to the 300 commanders who came with Pandora and their respective old subordinates. These veterans came from the old ten Five-day area. From their slumber tens of thousands of years ago until Gaia's resurrection, they fought alongside the Empire's spellcasters a long time ago. This part of memory and experience has been sealed just because of the conceptual separation. Now with the fusion of the two parts of the mother planet, they have restored these memories. They are very familiar with everything about the mysterious system, and they can cooperate smoothly with the latter without training. What really needs to be adapted is the newly created Xiling Apostles since the first year of recovery. Their memory banks were newly compiled after the new empire central database was established. There is no "sealed memory" in it, for them. Except for Raven and Alaya, all Xiling casters are strangers. Even if the relevant information is directly input into their memory core, it will take time to transform those things into combat experience and instinct.

Of course, there are also legal units in the empire's servant army, such as strange corps such as the Azeroth Shaman Brigade, but these units cannot be compared with the situation mentioned above. On high-end battlefields, their strength is still They cannot be counted as "fighting side by side" with the Xiling Legion. They can only be counted as a group of foreign aid. The experience accumulated while fighting with them is completely useless to the Xiling spellcasters.

Several senior officers in the lecture hall were discussing combat deployment issues. Although their topic was caused by Sandora and I, I still felt drowsy after listening to it, so I turned around and waved to Sivis, thinking Ask questions that you don’t quite understand yet.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" Sivis bent down and asked in a low voice. As a result, I vaguely smelled an almost indistinguishable fragrance, and was stunned: "Eh? You still use perfume?"

Although it is not appropriate to ask this question in such a serious place, I am really curious. If it were someone else, it would be fine, but Sivis's character... She is the most serious and meticulous person in the headquarters. People, it is even said that everything in her dormitory is arranged according to a logarithmic function. Could it be that such a sister who is made of special materials can also use cosmetics?

Sivis definitely didn't expect me to ask this question, so he was stunned for a moment. After two seconds, he said awkwardly: "In my spare time, I went to Asida and Asidora to help with the flower shop - it was almost occupied." They run it like a haunted house. Probably because of the smell there."

Me: "...then the sisters...forget it, let me ask you something about building a mysterious base. Storm Commander is a hybrid apostle, and you probably know about these things. With the things the empire has now, can Are you going to build a large number of bases like that?"

"Of course, you only need to upgrade the existing Xiling hosts once," Sivis blinked. "Xiling hosts are universal builders that have been evolved and transformed for many years. They are born to take on all imperial facilities. The construction and maintenance work, of course, also includes the construction of various basic units of the mysterious system.”

"Um... building mysterious things?" I looked into Sivis's eyes, with an unclear expression on my face, "such as those rune towers, magic crystals, arcane focusing rings and the like? Can we create mass-produced bubbles?"

"It seems that you have a lot to learn again," Sandora glanced at me, with a smile in her eyes, "Let me tell you some basic things - although I have just recovered these memories."

Next, Shandora explained to me some common sense about the mysterious system that I urgently need to know. Only then did I realize one thing: I was already quite familiar with the technology side of the Xiling Empire. But I know almost nothing about its mysterious side. What's even worse is that I have already developed preconceived inertial thoughts about the two. For example, I think that the Xiling host is a high-tech thing, and the mysterious thing is very different from the former. Hooks and the like, but in fact... the Xiling host is a hybrid unit.

Although those mass-produced bubbles have always behaved like pure high-tech products, in fact they should have two kinds of knowledge at the same time, all Xiling hosts. You can either use mathematical models based on precise science to process information, or you can use fuzzy science and information mapping (it is said that these two things are the most commonly used theoretical tools by the mysterious Xiling apostle when dealing with all things in the world) to calculate. Runes and secrets, in fact, from a higher perspective, these two functions are exactly the same thing - this involves an ultimate world view, information theory, or information theory. Presumably for this theory. It will be familiar to everyone. In the eyes of Xiling researchers and the gods, everything derived from the void. Including actual substances. Energy that is difficult to observe intuitively, as well as abstract concepts, are all collections of information, the only difference is their form of expression. The so-called "truth of the world", to put it bluntly, is the knowledge of fully understanding all this information or information and manipulating it according to a certain method. Technology on the technological side is accustomed to using precise mathematical models and "progressive methods" based on step-by-step research to manipulate information in the world. and achieve linear development. The technology on the mysterious side is almost the opposite. They first found simple ways to control that information, and then began to study why they could do so. Finally, sublimate the crude control skills into real occult knowledge, and then try another "simple method" discovered as a result, which is similar to a non-linear research. The two are like making a fire (provided you know how to make a fire). The technology side first understands the three elements of combustion, then accurately deploys fuel and ignition equipment, and understands various thermodynamics and chemical knowledge. In the end, the fire was successfully lit, and they naturally knew all the techniques related to flame burning; the mysterious side lit the fire first, and then began to think about why the fire could burn, and gradually understood all the relevant knowledge, and finally understood what they learned from the fire. Get new knowledge, "ignite" the next bunch of "flames", and think about the next bunch of questions. Of course, this example is not appropriate enough. It can only be used to compare the different ways of thinking and worldview of the mysterious apostles and the technological apostles, but the principle is the same: no matter which method is used, in the final analysis, it is all about understanding everything in the world. The process of controlling basic information.

As for Xiling hosts, they are essentially a powerful computing device. Under the premise that both technology and mysterious things can be attributed to different forms of expression of information, they can process things on either side.

In fact, I should have thought of this a long time ago - the Xiling Mother Nest, when this kind of thing appeared in front of me for the first time, it behaved so differently. The pyramid-like appearance is a structure between the science department and the mystery department. It is quite different in style from those large arsenals and war factories, and its internal structure is almost entirely composed of crystals. It is very different from the impression of factories or starships filled with various pipelines and advanced equipment. These characteristics actually show that Xiling host has two completely different characteristics of technology and mystery.

"The original researchers used the crystal amplification technology of the mysterious department as the material basis, and the precise information reconstruction technology of the science and technology department to compile and create the working programs and related modules of the Xiling host, and combined the two to produce the Xiling hosts. This kind of soul with astonishing load capacity eventually produced this hybrid type of special apostle, and soon, this unit became the main builder of all infrastructure in the empire," Sandora said, "So we don't have to worry about how. Build those mysterious facilities - just leave it to the host. By the way, Arjun, you don't think that the buildings in Celestial City are built in a completely independent way, do you? Do you think that the construction team under Alleria Everyone died in the catastrophe, so the production line construction technology of Celestial City was lost?"

I thought about it and nodded awkwardly: "Actually... I really thought so at first. Of course I'm not worried now."

Because there are so many things to be arranged after the fusion of the home planet, when we came out of the headquarters, the sun was almost setting, and I felt a little confused - mainly because Shandora made up for half a day of lessons. After coming out of the door, I felt a little better after letting the cold wind outside blow.

Sivis walked with us. She seems to be in a good mood: This is not easy to see, because most of the time there is no obvious emotion on Sivis's face. It's just that I have known her for a long time, and I can feel a little bit of the adjutant sister's emotions.

"You look quite happy," I said smoothly, "Well, the home planet has been restored. This is indeed one of the few good news in recent times."

"It's not just that." Sivis said, with a calm smile on his always meticulous face, "Alleria was once a comrade who fought side by side with my subordinates. We are sisters. She is Alai General Ye's aide-de-camp and chief assistant researcher, and his subordinate is General Pandora's aide-de-camp and..."

"External thinking circuit..." I replied smoothly, and then Sandora secretly pinched me, and I quickly changed my words. "Ahem, I know. You are still Pandora's think tank. That's probably the position. So it's really impossible that you and Alleria are not familiar with each other."

Sivis narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the setting sun that was gradually approaching the horizon: "Your Majesty, although this is very abrupt...but..." As she said this, she suddenly turned around and performed a standard military salute like a textbook. Then he bowed deeply: "Thank you for bringing them back. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't even remember that we once had such a group of comrades. This joy of recovery was given by you. When the memory is restored, half of them People are almost overloaded with emotional excitement..."

"Uh. Ahem, okay, okay, this is really not in line with your character." I was stunned for a moment, but I quickly reacted and pulled Sivis's shoulders together with Sandora, "To be honest, you The sudden appearance shocked me."

Sivis smiled awkwardly, seeming to realize that she had made a move that was very inconsistent with her usual "capable, calm, and unsmiling" personality. However, there was no sign of regret on her face, and she just took a deep breath. After a moment: "Then Your Majesty, my subordinates will go and carry out the things you just arranged."

After saying this, Sivis gave Sandora and I another military salute, turned around and walked back to the Shadow Fortress.

"Four years ago, I always thought that Apostle Xiling had weak feelings." Looking at Sivis's handsome back that was drifting away, I muttered, and Sandora looked over with a smile: "What about now?"

I shrugged: "Don't talk about it now, this impression has collapsed since I met you. It just collapsed again when I had nothing to do."

Sandora smiled and didn't say anything. She just followed me and walked slowly on the streets as the sunset gradually set. The streets in the military area are always quieter than the civilian areas, so many times, After finishing our work in the Shadow Fortress, Sandora and I always used to take a walk in the streets nearby. This was a rare alone time for the two of us, and Sandora liked this very much - she often said, Fortunately, Qianqian didn't understand military affairs, and Lin Xue was too lazy to listen to the officers' reports, otherwise she would not have been able to keep her exclusive alone time like this.

"It is said that Bubble is planning to create a star to replace the simulated sun in the sky now." Shandora looked at the sunset with only one-third left at the end of the horizon, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, "Her daily life Life is quite rich.”

"Her? She's just messing around. After listening to the story about Hou Yi shooting the sun last time, she wanted to hang ten suns on the Shadow City, but my sister knocked her on the head for a long time." I said casually, and then suddenly saw that Ben had fallen into the horizon. The setting sun suddenly jumped up a few times, then jumped out again - and then moved down again, as if someone was pushing it around.

Shandora: "...Maybe Paopao is comparing his watches."

"...I understand why she wants to create a real star to replace this simulated sun. She also knows her bad habits."

Unknowingly, Shandora and I found ourselves at the end of this street. In front of us was a small shop with a lazy and leisurely atmosphere. Behind the not-so-large but very bright windows were placed for display The delicate pastries, a fragrant and sweet smell wafted out from an unknown window crack. As soon as you smelled it, you knew... Sylvia had spilled something again.

The mysterious dessert house located in the shadow fortress military zone is a small world of a silver-haired mole. Unexpectedly, we walked here subconsciously during our casual stroll.

"Come in and have a seat." Sandora glanced at me with a smile, but she had already pushed open the glass door of the dessert house, not giving me a choice at all. The wind chimes hanging at the door emitted a series of pleasant chimes, and then, an energetic female voice came from my ears: "Welcome!"

A silver-haired girl wearing a waiter's uniform stood in front of me, holding a plate in her hand and a happy smile on her face. I glanced at her and asked directly: "Raven 001, right? Give it to Sylvie again." Ya help?"

"Wow! He was recognized!" This weird and lively raven exclaimed a little. He seemed to want to give a military salute, but then he remembered that I had told him before that he did not perform tasks in informal settings. It was best not to have so many troublesome etiquette, so I simply bowed to Sandora and me, "Good afternoon, Your Majesty! How did you recognize me?"

"Ah, it's Chen - welcome - come -" Before I could answer, Sylvia's slow voice came from behind the counter not far away, so I pointed my finger as if I was waking up from a big dream. Sylvia walked slowly from there and said to Raven 001: "Look, the real Sylvia will not react until now, and then I have to wait three minutes before she will remember to give the guest Get the drinks ready. You're too quick."

Raven 001 stuck out his tongue and floated towards the counter like a gust of wind: "Wait a moment, I will prepare drinks for your two majesties!"

Shandora and I came to our accustomed seats by the window and sat down, and called Sylvia over. Since we were already here, let's just chat for a while. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
