Chapter 1,439 Uninvited Guest
(Okay, okay, I know I read the calendar wrong yesterday, and the double monthly pass ended yesterday...can we still get some monthly passes today? Thank you for your support!)
In Apostle Xiling's world view, the universe is a complex mathematical machine, and everything is rooted in information theory. The description of a large amount of information constitutes everything in the world. The derivation and transformation relationship between the information means that they belong to a complete system. When this large-scale mathematical machine is roaring, each of its values and each footnote begin to follow precise instructions. According to the formula calculation, the universe began to move. It is self-consistent, perfect, self-explanatory and self-sustaining. Within the world barrier, it contains all the information needed to make this system operate stably. Every event in the universe can find a corresponding footnote in this mathematical system. Its "Self-sustainability" is the most stable order field. These endless and self-sufficient information allow the world to exist in the void for a long time.
However, once the world barrier is destroyed, the entire universe will be exposed to the fatal "clearing" force.
If you think of the universe as ordered data recorded on a disk, then the void is undoubtedly a magnetic field (of course, the real situation is much more complicated, but here is just an example to facilitate understanding). The magnetic field can record information, can write all the data needed for this "cosmic disk", and can build the world. But in more cases, it can also wipe out everything on the disk, and because the universe is essentially It is a "data disk" without a carrier, so when the void clears a world, the possibility of repairing it is completely zero. The process of void intrusion is like the sweep of a strong magnetic field. The information on the disk will be instantly fragmented. Eighty-ninety percent of the data will be reduced to disordered magnetic dust, and the remaining twenty percent will be world fragments - these The data fragments that narrowly escape the first clearing will float in the void until the day comes when they are completely restored.
But in the final analysis, it is difficult to describe an abstract thing with concrete language, so instead of asking how the world is broken, it is better to look at what it looks like when the world is torn apart.
This is the North Fortress located on the surface of the planet Hessenwood. Everyone came to the open space outside the house. Looking forward to the earth-shaking changes that are coming to this world: In order to avoid panic incidents, Edwinsa explained what happened today as a "miracle" in advance, so people didn't know that the universe had come to an end. They were just Watching what is happening in front of you with full of curiosity and expectation.
The sky has split into two and is gradually distorting.
A few of us also looked up curiously. To be honest, this was the first time I stood on the surface of a planet and watched the end of the universe from the perspective of the person involved: it was a completely different feeling than standing on the command platform of a starship and issuing an order to destroy the world. The sky overhead was divided along a sloping tangent from south to north. Half of it looked like normal, and the afterglow of the setting sun had not even faded from the horizon. But the other half is a strange night, with stars twinkling in the dark sky, and the smaller half of Redmoon's planet gradually emerges from this tangent between day and night.
I don’t know if this is the result of Alaya’s intentional adjustment: the sky where day and night transition, the dark moon on the dividing line, coupled with Edwinsa’s “divine revelation” statement, the scene in front of me looks somewhat religious. symbolic meaning.
"Oh. It looks so spectacular..." Qian Qian raised her head vigorously and shouted happily, "Is it so fast?"
"The world barrier should have been destroyed," I looked at the virtual clock in the corner of my field of vision. "The influx of void is faster than the speed of light, so the entire universe will disintegrate simultaneously, and after the cosmological constant stops, except for those who survived The concept of space everywhere in the world fragments and universe fragments will be cleared. Therefore, the half of the starry sky we see is very likely to come from any corner of the universe, and it is completely random... This is the last picture left in this world. Leave the photo behind."
"You don't want a nicer metaphor either." Lin Xue glanced at me unbearably, then turned her head and continued to meditate with her eyes closed: She doesn't have time to accompany us to watch the end of the world fall on this earth. The eldest lady is a prophet. She is the busiest at this juncture. She has to ensure the safety of the plan throughout the entire process. Once the fallen apostle is about to notice a certain world fragment, her advance warning will be the only way to ensure that the lives in those world fragments can survive.
I didn't interrupt her key work, but continued to study when the distorted starry sky overhead could completely cover the normal half of the sky: the void intrusion had completely destroyed the optical laws outside the world fragment, although the light inside the fragment was still there. Operate as normal. But the chaotic optical phenomena outside the fragment projected a large number of bizarre scenes. These scenes may come from the end of the universe, or they may come from a certain period of history. It may even come from the future on the timeline. In short, the normal world and the abnormal scenes outside are superimposed to form a distorted and absurd sky scene.
The normal day was quickly receding, and the starry night began to take over the sky. Soon, the planet ushered in the first night of the end of the world: and this happened in just a few minutes.
Finally, the last ray of sunset on the horizon was swallowed up by the night, and bright torches and braziers began to light up all over the camp.
When dividing the fragments of the world, we must reduce its "information content" as much as possible. In other words, the smaller the fragment, the better. Therefore, the fragment where the Redmoon-Hassenwood binary is located does not include the sun. ——So the star that had illuminated the earth for billions of years had actually been washed away by the void a few minutes ago. However, the light emitted when the star collapsed will never reach the eyes of people on the earth. They may think that the sun will rise as usual the next day.
Under normal circumstances, if a planet orbiting a star suddenly loses its sun, it will definitely bring about a series of catastrophic consequences: the atmosphere will cool, the water will freeze, and everything will wither. In just forty-eight hours, people on the earth (and the dark moon) will The people over there) will have the coldest winter night they can imagine, and then gradually become extinct as they approach absolute zero - but the world fragment itself is not a normal situation, so it will not happen to it . For the world fragment, the sun did not simply disappear, but part of the information deduction related to it suddenly stopped.
So just like a computer process suddenly stuck, many things will "stuck" in a strange state. Even if the sun disappears, the planet will not cool down, and the world fragments will maintain the general environment that they were separated from the universe. A momentary state. Until the entire data fragment was swallowed up by the void - the first time I came into contact with this kind of phenomenon was when I found little Artemis. At that time, she and her friends stayed in such a "stuck" in fragments of the world. However, the fragments of the world in front of us now are man-made, so their "stuckness" is limited to a range that is harmless to the ecosystem.
Let’s go too far, let’s go back to the current world.
Bingtis' side seems to be going well. The abnormal optical phenomena in the sky indicate that the order of the universe has begun to disintegrate. The unfamiliar starry sky in the sky is the last afterglow released when the universe disintegrates.
However, as the void intrusion became more and more serious, the disorder of the rules around the world fragment worsened rapidly, and the "stuck" starlight finally became unstable: the stars drifted as fast as a violently shaking TV screen. Even a long strip of starlight was drawn in the sky, and the night gradually became brighter, and was soon filled with cracks like cracks. The crowd around us was originally a little overwhelmed by the sudden fall of night. When they saw the wildly shaking stars, someone suddenly shouted "The stars are going to fall!" and they suddenly became commotion. It seemed that the comfort measures that Edwin Sa had made hastily in a few hours had limited effect, facing the abnormality in the sky. These somewhat superstitious mercenaries were suddenly in chaos.
Immediately, clergymen in white robes ran out to restore order. The heralds also mounted their fast horses again and began to run around the camps so that everyone did not panic. But I could tell at a glance that even these were getting The papal staff were also in a state of panic: one herald had fallen off his horse twice, but fortunately he was strong-boned...
However, the activities of these clergymen still had some effect, and the mercenaries finally stabilized a little. At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly pointed to the sky and exclaimed loudly: "Look! Dark Moon! There is a halo around Dark Moon!"
Several exclamations followed, and people looked up to look at the strange moon in the sky. As expected, a golden ring appeared around the black-gray planet shrouded in thick fog. Then the ring gradually expanded, and divided into the second and third rings. The triple halo surrounded the dark moon. The size of the outermost ring was nearly five times the diameter of the dark moon. This magical scene was obviously larger than the stars. The collapse made people feel at ease, and the clergymen who were running around to maintain order immediately understood and began to wave their Bibles desperately and shout everywhere: "Miracles! Miracles have begun! The goddess is launching an attack on Dark Moon. General attack! Don’t panic, everyone! The night will end soon! Light will return to the world with the triumph of the goddess!"
Facts have proved that grassroots missionaries need a good voice - under the propaganda of these loud-voiced priests, the fact that the miracle has come was finally established, and the mercenaries and soldiers of the Knight Order began to cheer. Those believers who had been baptized took out their Bibles and began to recite the chapters above. Many people even had tears in their eyes, and the entire camp and the fortress wall not far away were filled with cheers. I looked around in surprise. I found that everyone's joy came from the bottom of their hearts: That Edwinsa is a talent. Even though she is only "half a goddess", she has also made great achievements in religious undertakings. This preaching ability is probably second only to Lilina. .
Lilina preached with a "negative number goddess", so I think Edwinsa still failed to surpass that girl. To preach to Dingdang, you need to have an indomitable heart that is not afraid of boiling water. After all, that is a God who will suddenly be sent down from heaven when you are reading the doctrine for her, and then pull your fingers and ask you for candy. …
At this time, Bingtis's call also sounded in my mind: "Chen! I've almost finished it. The outposts close to the world barrier, whether from the empire or the fallen apostles, were all beaten down by me. The world The barrier is full of holes. All the celestial bodies here have been wiped clean by the void - what are you going to do next?"
"Continue to pretend that you are a city gate and hang there without moving," I replied. "It is definitely not normal for the Gate of the Abyss to disappear suddenly. You should slowly lower your own speed according to the normal dissipation speed of the Gate of the Abyss in the void environment." We need to maintain a sense of presence, and then find the nearest Imperial Defense Force to join us. Let’s finally meet in the Imperial Zone.”
Bingtis's voice sounded a little reluctant: "Damn it, you are the only one who dares to use me like this. Sister Xukong, I actually pretended to be furniture for you today..."
Bingtis said a few words and hung up the communication. At this time, the noisy crowd around us had just calmed down, and everything seemed to be developing according to plan, from the macro to the details, everything was perfect. At this time, I was a little worried about the situation on the ecological planets in the other fragments. Before the tearing of the world began, Ding Dong applied the magic of spiritual comfort to all creatures in the universe, but the doomsday will interfere with the effect of the magic, so some Hard losses are probably unavoidable. The good news now is that all the world fragments have been accurately divided as planned. No ecological planet has been destroyed due to space collapse or void intrusion, and for the time being, it seems that the fallen apostles are not aware of our plan. Being able to maintain this momentum is victory.
The strange phenomenon in the sky continues. I don't know who came up with the idea of "three holy lights shrouding the dark moon". Anyway, it seems really straightforward and simple. Now I'm curious about what drama will happen next. "The goddess personally purifies the dark moon" is an incredible event, but the hastily arranged stage seems to be very restrictive, and the silly cat angel is still a critical moment. The cute thing that fell off the chain...
I just thought so. I saw that the scene of "three circles surrounding a ball" in the sky had changed. Some vague dark shadows began to appear around the dark moon, and the innermost ring of holy light suddenly lost several segments, and then that The halo began to slowly dissipate. This scene obviously meant "the devil's counterattack." Needless to say, it was another plot created by Alaya - the silly cat angel seemed to be quite interesting to play. At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the sky. Of course, they also saw this obvious scene. There was an uproar, but soon an old but majestic voice came from high in the sky. This voice resounded through the entire fortress area, suppressing everyone's commotion: "Don't panic! God's army is fighting the final battle with the devil. The goddess has invested all the holy warriors she has created in these thousands of years to win. It must belong to justice! Hold your head high and take back the cowardice on your faces! We are glorious followers. Hold your chest high and let the goddess take a good look. Even if you can't come to the battlefield in person, don't be embarrassed at this time. !”
I looked up. As a result, I happened to see a huge silver-white figure slowly flying over the fortress. I was stunned for a moment and recognized that it was Zoya - the old Pope Edwinsa was riding on the back of a dragon and loudly read about miracles. The old man was quite into the show.
"I hope that after this is over, the people on earth can resume communication with the Dark Moon people as soon as possible." Lin Xue also woke up from her meditation. She looked up at the sky, with a smile on her face, "With such a big name as a goddess, Then, the whole world will return to normal soon. This is the power of monotheism and faith. Then the five people will be reunited as they wish."
I thought of the five people who had gone through ups and downs, and immediately smiled knowingly, then raised my head and waved vigorously to the sky. The silver dragon had been swiping its eyes here and there. Apparently Zoya had noticed our group of people, but she couldn't come down to say hello while she was working. Now that she saw me waving to her, the dragon suddenly He let out a low and long dragon roar, which should be a greeting.
I smiled happily at Zoya, and then turned my attention to the sky again. Alaya was using holy light and optical phantoms to create a battlefield of flashing lights and shadows in space. I watched with interest the meaningless but more exciting "Light and Dark War" than the fireworks, and imagined the scene of the silly cat amusing himself in space, and then suddenly saw a narrow black line next to the moon. crack.
At that moment I thought I was hallucinating, but then a black and red streamlined spaceship rushed out of the crack. My eyes suddenly widened: It was not an hallucination, it was a fallen apostle reconnaissance ship!
Everyone saw the spaceship, but the locals definitely didn't know what a starship was. The mercenaries around them had no idea that a catastrophic disaster was heading towards this fragile little world. They were even still there Discussing in a low voice with great interest: "What is that thing? It looks like a fish." "Maybe it's the goddess's weapon? But it's black. Maybe the goddess knocked down something on the Dark Moon." Oh, long live the goddess!”
The reconnaissance ship that suddenly broke in did not make any more movements. It just hovered quietly in the sky. I roughly judged that it should be several thousand meters above the ground: this was a spacecraft that suddenly broke into the atmosphere, but The question is why did it lock onto this world exactly and then just break in? Plan revealed? Have the Fallen Apostles locked onto the fragments floating towards the Empire Zone? Are they preparing for an interception? Is this spaceship an advance guard?
A lot of random speculations filled my mind instantly, but thanks to the strong nerves I have developed over the past few years, my first thought that popped up was still clear and direct: I must get rid of it quickly!
But before he could take action, a dazzling white light from the direction of Dark Moon had arrived first. This light effortlessly pierced the reconnaissance ship in the sky and almost exploded it into two pieces.
Alaya's reaction was finally quick for once. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m. to read.)
