Chapter 1,465 The Strange Movements of the Fallen Apostle

(I continued to ask for monthly tickets at the beginning of the month, and now I am very skilled at asking for monthly tickets!)

Ever since Bingtis returned to the God Realm to report about the discontinuous zone, I feel that the house has become much quieter. Although one Qianqian is still enough to make people run around upstairs and downstairs most of the time, but less The situation of the female gangster who added fuel to the fire is really not getting better than usual. But how can I put it, after being so quiet for two or three days, I am still a little unaccustomed to it: there are only four of the five protoss gangs left, without the eldest sister to suppress them, and their captain is a person who can live a happy life after eating and drinking. Idiot, I feel like the accidents in my family are increasing.

Lin happily helped Anweina clean up the balcony this morning, and now we are repairing the house.

Normally, the stupid dragon would be pulled by Bingtis to play cards at this time.

I just came back from the Shadow City, and I am currently studying the report that was just uploaded in the living room: a new round of deep dives will be carried out next month, and the "Harbinger" system has begun to be installed on the Royal Fleet, Redmoon-Haisenwood The world is preparing to be connected to the Vidis World Chain. There are two abyss reports in the macro world that need to send troops to clean up. The Fiari Void Consortium needs to apply for a business license to form a mercenary group. Basically, it is all big and small things like this, except for the last two. The rest of the article is basically left to the experts: anyway, I am responsible for writing a "read" note.

The macroworld network has been extremely quiet recently, and it can even be said to be a bit too quiet. These two abyss reports are the only two alarms in a month, and their scale is far from reaching the point of "opening the door". It is just that they never knew Local contamination that has penetrated from any nook and cranny can be solved by sending servants or nearby Imperial Guards. This has dropped by nearly half compared to the previous alarm frequency and intensity.

It is certainly a good thing that the macro world is peaceful. This large-scale multiverse network spans more than ten quadrants. It can truly reflect the direction of the abyss within the entire void that the empire is concerned about. The calmness of the macroworld means that the abyss phenomena in a considerable range are gradually entering tranquility. Issue: It’s not too late for the local defense forces to be happy.

But I always feel that the abyss activities should not be so calm at this time. It’s not that there is any scientific basis, it’s just a little intuition. first. The discontinuous zone has just appeared, and it is still approaching all the abyss gates; secondly, the Star Territory God Clan is also ready for the expedition, waiting for the active period of the abyss; thirdly, as the Star Territory expedition approaches and The rise of the new empire is getting faster and faster, and the activities of the fallen apostles are becoming more and more frequent. Although the fallen apostles and the abyss are not completely equivalent, the activities of the fallen apostles are often related to the gates of the abyss in various places. These three conditions all make me think that the void should become increasingly chaotic.

As a result, the activity in the abyss has been decreasing day by day in the past few months. Even now, the entire macroworld network has only observed two pollutions in a month. I am not unfounded - this really feels like the calm before the storm.

But there is no point in thinking about it. A few years ago, I might have been disturbed by these things, but now I have experienced tons of troubles. My nerves have long been tempered to the point of being necrotic at the end, and I have been able to calm down completely. The soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth, and the abyss can be tossed as much as I want. Anyway, as long as I don't die, I can't change the world: This is what Sandora said: " The popular saying of "Xiling Spirit".

In addition to the alarm information about the abyss, the report of the Fiari Void Consortium is one of the few things in the macro world intelligence that requires Sandora and I to review it personally. I have to say that the hawker queen's mobility and courage are super strong. Everything she tosses is so large that the Space and Time Administration has to sort out all the matters of the Void Consortium in front of Sandora and me. Recently, they have intervened in Macro World's "agent war" and applied to engage in mercenary export business... This is not a small business.

The macro world is huge in scale, with many worlds, and each world may have a large number of different civilizations and camps. It is of course inevitable that there will be some friction when so many races come together. Under the constraints of the Imperial Code, large-scale wars and mutual invasions will not break out in the macro world, but if they really get angry, there is nothing you can do about a local war. In the eyes of the emperor, these local wars do not need to be intervened. As long as it is not genocide, the Imperial Ministry will treat it as a quarrel between neighbors under the rule.

To be honest, even if we want to control them, we can't control them - there are so many civilizations in the macro world, and most of them are not under the direct rule of the empire and belong to autonomous territories. Can you control them if they are willing to blow their brains out?

Therefore, with the tacit approval of the emperor, local wars in the macro world still occasionally occur (such as the Ultraman vs. Decepticons in a certain universe). Such wars have spawned a large group of guys who want money rather than life: Void mercenary.

Void mercenaries are also monitored by the Space-Time Management Bureau. They cannot intervene in disputes where the civilization gap is too large, nor can they participate in wars that have been expressly prohibited by the empire, but other than that, these people can only get involved if they have money. Being able to form a mercenary group in the void requires amazing strength, so this kind of mercenary group is a "commercial behavior" in name, but in fact it is backed by national forces. The Fiari Void Consortium now wants to apply to become a war agent country , exporting mercenaries to other countries to earn high foreign exchange...that hawker queen who wants money rather than her life.

But anyway, this is something the empire acquiesces to, and in Sandora's words: War is one of the driving forces of evolution. As long as it is not an internal war within the civilization system, there will be no problem, so I won't say anything.

I studied for a long time and felt that their application complied with the regulations of the Space and Time Administration, so I approved it as a "private security company"... By the way, the competition in the security industry in Shadow City is really fierce, and now the entry standards for applying for a business license are It has been raised to the level of interstellar fleet. Do you dare to think about it anywhere else?

I was dealing with the report when Viska suddenly trotted over and tugged on my sleeve with great interest: "Brother, brother, when are we going to have a war?"

I was stunned for a moment, wondering why this cat-eyed loli suddenly remembered this, but when I looked up, I saw Pandora sitting not far away with a dull expression. Although the latter's face had no expression, after all, after living together for so many years, I could still see the enthusiasm hidden in her eyes: Well, Huesca must be pestering Pandora to go out to play again. The latter, who had a wooden personality, was really annoyed and couldn't help it, so he suggested going out to fight, and then the two short winter melons, who were full of explosives, hit it off...

This is basically the daily interaction between the two sisters, and they are particularly in tune with each other on this topic.

"Why fight?" I pressed Huesca's head and rubbed it hard. "The world is not chaotic enough. Find something to do on your own."

Viska thought for a while, and suddenly a pair of pointed black cat ears appeared on his head. Then he swung the cat tail behind his back and wrapped it around my hand: "Brother, let me be cute and let's go out." Is it okay to fight?”

I was immediately stunned. After a while, I stood up and asked the crowd of people watching the fun in the living room: "...Who taught her this?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a big golden furball slowly rolled out from behind the stairs not far away. After the furball opened, Master Fox Fairy's head popped out: "Don't you like to touch furry tails and ears?"

I was speechless: "..."

After holding it in for a long time, I was too embarrassed to tell Master Fox Fairy. In fact, I usually pull her ears and tail according to the standards of a pet dog - if you really say that, that stupid fox has to bite people.

Of course I couldn't stand the report after being interrupted like this by Viska, and since there really weren't many things to deal with today, I put aside the work at hand and started walking around the house. This is one of my usual hobbies. Ever since I raised a lot of strange species at home, I have fallen in love with patrolling around every now and then to observe what those strange guys are doing.

The little doll is watching TV. He likes to ignore everyone; Lilina is holding a data terminal and writing the Bible. She is not afraid of colluding with the Bibles of several sects. The four people in the Dingdang team are not at home, so they can't see them. They go out to harm the earth. People were gone; Little Crow was squatting on the sofa and reading a KFC brochure, sweating profusely - she read it as a horror story.

Besides me, there is another guy who is also wandering around leisurely, and that is Chen Xiaoxue, the boss of the naughty children. This girl doesn't have to worry about anything, and for such a big person, she doesn't have to do the same homework as other little girls. My daily task is to run around after eating and drinking to annoy me and her mother. When I saw this girl swinging her arms and swinging around, I couldn't help but want to say something: "Xiaoxue, you are usually nothing." On business?"

"What's my business?" Xiaoxue actually said confidently, "I'm here for vacation."

I:"……"

But wandering around like this is boring after all, and Xiaoxue is a restless guy. She wanted to find something to do after I reminded her like this, so she ran to the kitchen: "Sister Anweina! You teach me I’ll cook!”

I followed him curiously: Xiaoxue cooks in the same style as her mother, and instant noodles are prone to flavor contamination, so I'm very curious about what this girl can learn from a god-level cook like An Weina. When I went to the kitchen, I saw that these two people were really serious about teaching their cooking skills. Anweina prepared the things quickly, and while preparing the kitchen utensils at a dizzying speed, she taught Xiaoxue: "Then I'll teach you the easier one first. The first step is to wash the wok first, wipe it dry and don't leave any water. .Then drive Dingdang out of the pot, cut the potatoes into small pieces, cut the green onions into sections and mince the garlic, drive Dingdang out of the seasoning box, heat the pot and pour in the oil, wait for the oil to steam, add the Dingdang Take it out of the bowl, pour the chopped green onions and minced garlic into the pot and choke with oil. After the aroma comes out, take Dingdang out of the pot and pour the potatoes in... Master, take Dingdang and wash it and don't let her in the kitchen. Is it okay to fly around?"

I held the fried jingdang that was already fragrant and silently walked to the sink. While giving the little one a bath, I listened to Anweina continue to teach from behind: "...then stir-fry twice to prevent sticking to the pot and drive the little crow out of the pot. , add an appropriate amount of water, and add some other easily cooked vegetables to stew according to taste. Drive the little crow out of the seasoning box, take out the little crow's eggshells from the pot, and give her some vegetable leaves. Tell her to stop crying, and then put the vegetables on the plate with the little crow... Oh, this is wrong! Master, please stop wandering around in the kitchen! A lot of troublemakers came in after you!"

I:"……"

When I came out of the kitchen, I had a jingle hanging on my body, and there were several little crows holding vegetable leaves who had just taken a bath. I knew that jingle always sticks to me, but I didn’t expect that these little crows would follow me and run around. ——Theoretically, they should listen to Anweina more. After all, Anweina is the "mother" of the little crow, and it is usually Anweina who is responsible for feeding them. Now it seems that these little guys with similar intelligence to Dingdang are quite heartless...

At this moment, a distorted light curtain suddenly appeared in the living room.

Bingtis ran out of the light curtain in a hurry. As soon as he saw me, he shouted loudly: "Hey, Chen, I'm back from a business trip!"

It turned out to be this female gangster. I originally thought that she would stay in the God Realm for a few more days, but I didn't expect that she would be back today. By the way, this guy doesn’t already regard this place as his home, right?

Although I knew that there was only one portal from the God Realm to the capital of the empire, I knew Bingtis’s temperament, so I still went up to greet this rogue goddess who had worked hard and accomplished a lot and returned from a long trip: “Father God, I am very grateful to the discontinuous leader. What do you think?"

"He is leading a group of experts and scholars in a meeting to conduct research. There are also deep dive ports in the God Realm. It is probably time to discover the discontinuous belt soon." Bingtis threw his little leather boots to the wall with a bang. , the man angrily jumped onto the sofa with bare feet and rubbed his calves, while waving vigorously to the side, "Hey, who can help me rub my feet? I have been traveling so far..."

Shandora happened to pass by, and when she heard this, she punched the female gangster on the shoulder: "Don't let the sun shine like this. Tell me. Did the God Clan also notice something? Your eyes are not right. "

I didn't see that Bingtis was hiding anything in his heart, but Shandora saw it at a glance. The latter curled her lips and admitted helplessly: "It's true, I can't hide anything from you... There is indeed something wrong. But the God Clan has already taken care of it.”

"What's going on?" I couldn't really listen to it. My intuition told me that Bingtis must have heard something extraordinary in the God Realm.

Bingtis looked at Sandora and me. As well as several other people who were approaching with concerned expressions, they could no longer pretend to be confused and sat upright seriously: "Do you know where the boundaries of the fallen apostles extend?"

We looked at each other in shock. We didn't expect that the other person's first question would be this. However, Sandora quickly answered: "According to the information we have learned before, it should be a part of the incomplete world of the old empire that is connected, roughly equivalent to the old empire." Among the seven or eight regions of the empire, part of it is bordering the New Empire, but there is quite a distance from the God Realm."

"Yeah, it's not bordering the God Realm." Bingtis muttered while rubbing his calf, "But they raided a universe on the border of the Gods, a large-scale raid, and the local Gods defenders almost couldn't stop it... Damn, those gangs Sun Tzu’s fighting ability is really high.”

I was immediately startled. I didn't think of what to say for a moment, but it took me a moment to react: "The fallen apostles are attacking the God Realm? Are you kidding me?"

"This can't be a joke. There are two wounded soldiers from the football field lying in the neighbor's temple alone - that is the goddess of life." Bingtis lay back and leaned on the sofa. "Fortunately, it was guarded. But we I just can’t figure it out: Why did the fallen apostle suddenly send troops to the God Realm?!”

Sandora sat next to Bingtis with a serious face. She realized that this incident was not as simple as Bingtis said: "What is the specific situation? Did those guys have any signs before they attacked? They were on an expedition. Or did he secretly expand his boundaries and build a springboard world near the God Realm?"

"Secretly expanding the boundary line" is a situation that can only occur in a special environment like the void: the enemy parties take advantage of the cover that it is difficult to directly scan the target in the void to operate in a low-key manner, and "move" their own springboard world to the enemy bit by bit Under the nose of the enemy, or simply build a new universe on the edge of the enemy's security zone. Because new worlds are being born in the void every moment, and even the Star Domain Protoss can only scan 100% of the new worlds in their own territory, which gives the fallen apostles an opportunity to take advantage of.

You can think of this as a silent confrontation in thick fog and darkness. Neither side can directly see the other side, but both sides know where the other side is roughly. So the two deadly hunters slowly approach each other, while Setting traps and favorable environments along the way - this is a simple tactic that all civilizations with the ability to cross the void will master. It is slow, but effective.

Raiding the Protoss mainland is no joke, so Sandora suspects that the fallen apostles have been planning this a long time ago. I think so too, otherwise it would be really hard for me to accept that those guys who have always been cautious would suddenly do this. Playing tricks: declaring war on the New Empire and the God Realm at the same time, and extending the front line so long, are they tired of living?

Unless they have planned for a long time and have set up some huge military force that we don't know near the God Realm.

"I'm not sure whether there was any advance planning. The sentries haven't returned yet. It seems like it's just an expedition. There's nothing like a fortress or a springboard world found nearby," Bingtis spread his hands and feet on the sofa. Go up, carelessly resting your head on Shandora's thigh, "We also thought that the other party secretly mobilized a large force near the God Realm, and now we are desperately trying to find them. This is really a big trouble, look at it The expedition is about to begin in the God Realm. This involves the survival of countless worlds and cannot be canceled or delayed at all. However, if the expedition sets off as scheduled, I am afraid that there will be loopholes in the local guards of the God Realm. In any case... the fallen apostles are not The miscellaneous fish themselves are a force slightly worse than the Gods, and if they attack in a swarm, the Gods will also go crazy."

Hearing Bingtis being so entangled, I could think that there must be no peace in the God Realm now. I suddenly thought of something: "Speaking of which, the fallen apostles should have a strategic goal. They will not mobilize their troops just to attack an ordinary person." Border universe, right? And it hasn’t been defeated yet.”

"This is more intriguing when you say it -" Bingtis raised his head and glanced at Sandora and me, "They stole the local Heart of the World. You must be familiar with their actions, right?"
