Star Empire

"...Survival?" For a moment, Kalost even wondered if there was something wrong with his perception and memory, or something was wrong with the network or that person - "IV, are you responsible for your guess?"

"Of course, Your Majesty, I guarantee with my soul that I am responsible for my conjectures and thinking. After the fleet's monitoring system and detection system interact with the fault zone structure and capture and recover the damaged part of the information entangled snapshot, what can actually be captured There are some... "attributes" of the fault zones themselves. I can be sure that a considerable part of those fault zones and structures may have begun to expand because of an obsession similar to survival in our perceptions and thoughts."

"...Start the basic backup of the network. IV, clarify your assumptions. As soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty. According to my soul perception, I can confirm that within those decaying and outward-expanding world barriers, there are actually some beings that can be considered "souls" or even "wisdom." They are. They may not recognize the environment and think like us, but they should also be able to make some basic perceptions of the surrounding environment and events and have a certain impact."

"The soul of the world?, civilization has experienced it before, but that event was so special that we can't measure it today. It is still evolving until now - please continue."

"I was also curious at the beginning - the death tide symbolizes destruction, corrosion and destruction. It should not cause any repair or expansion of the order structure. I once thought that the interaction between the death tide and the world created some changes, and In these processes, might the Dead Wave itself reveal itself as part of the new element of the ‘opposite side of order.’ But that is not actually the case.”

"The Dead Tide still has not been detected with any accurate attributes that can be measured or described - it lies on the edge of existence or non-existence. Even though His Majesty Vidoville has detected some environments inside the Dead Tide, detection in the Dead Tide environment... It is said that specific omnidirectional information broadcast pulses must be used - the model is built by comparing snapshots of the corroded damage with the original environment, which itself is already causing a disturbance to the outside world."

"The equations we established are also based on this perturbation. The same is true for the black and red patterns we observed. The death tide is still on the edge of existence or not. We cannot capture the essential existence called the death tide—— It looks more like certain phenomena exposed when a body of order is spontaneously destroyed."

"After secondary perception of some fault zones with different degrees of expansion... I am sure that it is the special world soul of some worlds that promotes the expansion of the fault zones."

"Under normal circumstances, the heart of the world does not have any intelligent response or conscious response. Most of the world is like a body with life but no soul - the heart of the world and the real world mirror each other, but their internal There is no life with a closed self and individual consciousness that can be recognized by our cognition."

"Even if there is such life in some worlds, the basic structure of that life determines that it is difficult for them to bear large-scale, clear and changing directional information control pulses, that is, to create the "lines" of thinking - the baseline stability of the universe Anchors make it easy to control them.”

"However... if the world with these relatively special consciousnesses is polluted by the death tide... things will become a little different - the world consciousness is actually quite powerful, and it is almost impossible for the death tide gate that can only affect a single world to instantly They kill, and they can even survive in the wreckage of the impending doomsday before the ring detonation process is carried out.”

"They are also life. If we expand according to our current understanding and view of life... the actual first pursuit of life should be survival. Then, if the world consciousness also wants to achieve this, it is reasonable that we can accept it. Among..."

"Most of the time, they will not be so lucky. Their stirring and struggling will only accelerate the complete destruction of the world. However, the randomness of the interval, degree of randomness, virtual and actual randomness of the death tide's destruction of the world is actually random. It’s huge – a lot of the time, the damage might be just right, like when part of the world barrier is ripped open.”

"Crystal energy vortex or arcane crack...the crack in the world barrier evolved into other relative sources of Genesis-like information?"

"The situation is roughly the same as what you said. After the world barrier is torn apart, in most cases it will cause the void to pour in. However, as a barrier with a high degree of self-consistency and strong information constraint capabilities, part of its self-consistent structure has undergone mutation Afterwards, it is possible that it will be transformed into the birthplace of the Genesis Information Source - although the probability of that is very small."

In the silent communication between several consciousnesses that still have souls, groups of simple diagrams based on fuzzy information models are projected into the logical modules of each soul. Some kind of strange information impact with an unprecedented strong sense of struggle and survival began to reverberate in the soul.

"Did we ever persevere because of those fluctuations..." In the silence, bits and pieces of concise but unverifiable pulses started from a few small ones, even for the third-order volume of galaxies or planets. They are transmitted from unobvious nodes, they jump between nodes, and by the time they are passed to the next person... they have already spanned vastness and infinity.

They are placed in an environment - small and strange, but microorganisms can indeed survive in the universe...

"The consciousness of the world will be constantly devoured and corrupted by the tide of death. If they want to maintain a little survival, they must continue to replenish pure information. The same is true for the structure of the world. They need to continue to trigger more violent creation activities to neutralize the growing tension in their bodies. Severe pollution..."

"When the Genesis-Doomsday balance of destruction is established, the expansion of the fault zone will move toward stability..." Kalost added the second half of the sentence, "Struggle to survive... They may really be doing that, but their struggle , but it has put our homeland into crisis——?!!”

"Your Majesty, you...?"

"No, I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry." Kalost quietly pushed the records of several of his own threads, and the problem quickly subsided.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand that they are "surviving", but they do so like a malignant disease that will continue to expand in the order system, and they are harmful to us."

"Um……"

"The upload is completed, the entire network analysis and summary begins, and the backup information screening link is activated."

…

Throughout the vast complex of world structures, there are countless such units dealing with matters of a similar nature but of widely varying severity.

Both puppets and spiritual people know that there may be countless existences similar to themselves in places that they cannot "see" at first glance, dealing with various problems and difficulties like themselves - they may It was smoother than their side, and it might be more difficult and troublesome than their side. They encountered more problems...

It's all clear, and the souls remember how many friends they have left. When all puppets are in action, these elements are also important variables and important parameters in the evolutionary algorithm structure. They must be updated at all times and ensure sufficient priority.

Everyone understands, but...

It seems that once the mission begins, everyone will always forget each other and just fight hard on their own...

It's like everything inside and outside the corrupted high wall of the fault zone has been extinguished, and he is the only life left; in the void, it's like there is only one heaven and earth left here.

Countless warships are organized into a matrix, and the free matrix follows free coherence. While ensuring that all elements can support each other and maintain maximum strength of virtual information projection network, it can also ensure that this entire matrix can integrate the fleet joint shield system with The working status of the real information distribution system is optimized to the best.

This is almost the only "fleet" weaving system that currently exists, and it is also one of the few "fleet" formation methods that still has "value".

Between the matrices, the golden-red light pillars will be constantly eaten away and erased, but almost every moment, they can restore every gap and be as bright as before.

Under the mask of these beacons enriched with strong law-level existence attributes, the existence deflection beacon arrays of some key nodes and the strong reality stabilization field and directional probabilistic collapse field and quasi-first protocol after multiple optimizations The underlying order fixed field floats "outside" the vast and thick joint shield together, serving as the second layer of defense barrier for the entire fleet combat system.

Everything that can be considered an "attack" because the order is distorted and deflected, no matter what posture it takes and what kind of structure it has when attacking the Imperial fleet, they will almost always be stopped by these two layers of defense systems. The only thing that can reach the United Shield may be the real death wave pollution.

The shield is weakening every moment, and the shield itself and the shield structure array will begin to malfunction and decay, or even become disordered, over time. The fleet had to reduce the overall strength of the combined shields and perform constant shifts.

Within the joint shield woven by one-way channels, everything in this small world can arbitrarily iterate its own information baseline stable points and virtual information projections and continuously project firepower to the outside until the chaotic intensity of everything around it is reduced to the point where it can be carried out. until a stable ring-explosion process is achieved.

"Judgment - inside the fault zone, the harm caused by the distorted order to the fleet exceeds 63%, the direct corrosion harm caused by the suspected dead tide pollution is 25%, and the remaining part... is caused by the corrosion of the ship's equipment. occur due to various malfunctions.”

"We have contacted other fixed execution troop matrices of the same size. All data will be screened and added with an acceptance factor. The comprehensive situation judgment is completed and the current deduction decision is made: the death wave actually only accounts for part of the damage to the order."

"The corrupted and collapsed distorted order actually causes more serious harm to the normal order, and is more variable and difficult to estimate in nature."

"Evolutionary algorithm matrix, start to infer the possibility weight in reverse...start to upload the information report."

…

"It's a bit hard to accept."

"But we accept that it's a fact, a hard fact, an indestructible fact."

"We exist in an orderly environment. The parts that interact with us, that we can actually perceive, resist and respond to, all come from information and order. The void and the death tide... it is too difficult for us to get a piece of it. They can be considered "materials" - they are probably some kind of transcendent existence, or...existences that have no common set with order at all."

"Whether it is metaphysics or other fields...the various virtual and real objects of different sizes and shapes that appear in the fault zone, as well as the distortion and destruction of ourselves by all our creations...they destroy order and existence - —the part we want to protect.”

…

For the entire empire, it can be said that the current empire has climbed countless levels in an instant.

Although every such tearing leap will produce a huge number of damage and loopholes, tearing apart perception and soul, but now... those are no longer worth caring about, anyway, the dead will not hurt. What's more, field beings that can exist in any field structure and continue to proliferate and develop have the inherent ability to make up for these faults and gaps in the virtual information level. With their help, the empire can care less about these than before.

This huge branch of the world is gradually being controlled by the empire, although it will still take tens of thousands of years or more to completely complete this matter.

Countless branches and veins were severed, and some disgusting smell emitted from the fractures.

However...compared to clearly seeing the countless worlds, looking at it as a whole, it is more like a piece of feather...with the edges partially burnt.

The production capacity has continued to increase over the course of ten thousand years, and has been continuously compensated and improved by the imperial information calculation matrix group with more advanced evolutionary calculation trends - even if the exponential explosion is in the middle, the foundation will continue to be taken away, and its possible upper limit will continue to be lost. , but as long as there is enough time, they can always spread to the end of the world, allowing basic industrial modules and higher-level super facilities to be built, and then allowing creation to physically fill one universe after another, filling every inch of the gap in the vast space and time. Let billions of galaxies disappear, let the eternal night sky no longer exist.

To be sure, restrictions remain and everything is determined by the overall macro-directives of the Empire. If you execute any single thing too quickly, you may not even be able to troubleshoot the fault in the future - if that moment occurs, the empire will not die in battle, but will be devoured by itself.

Maybe it's a coincidence.

The Empire made many, many mistakes.

But the ultimate consequence of every mistake... is that he is destroyed by the external forces in the void. At least... there has not yet been a real craze in the empire that leads to destruction due to his complete self.

In the center of the majestic branches, countless slender and narrow veins extend out. Countless gates to the world, as well as the Void Fortress Sacred Music Praise that has become even stranger in shape after being refitted many times, with the addition of many giant structures and order corridors, connect them to form a tight and solid whole.

And the three most iconic giant spiers of the Holy Music Praise...their unique brilliance has never faded.

In the sight of the Eye of the Void, any target is as bright as the star Gouchen that was once engraved in the memory. The double-yoke imaginary spear crosses the bridge between order and nothingness, embeds itself deeply into the cracks of countless corrupted barriers, and then completely tears them apart, leaving them completely and irrevocably crushed in the void. .

As the number of fortresses increases, the imperial command system that occupies the branch structure of the entire world begins to become more and more perfect. The never-ending spear of nothingness is not so much created by the precise and synchronized volleys of countless fortresses, but rather... …They are lenses that aggregate, focus, and transmit the will of the empire.

Even the starry skies across countless universes have begun to join the battle simultaneously. Among them, more and more existences have begun to break away from the foundation that they are locked from the innate level because they are shaped by basic mortal structures. They gradually became equal to battleships and equally powerful——

Under the combination, the empire seems to have a real "shape" that can be read in the void.

…

"Um……"

Deep in the soul of the former general, now the ruler of the Relict Sky Zone, fierce confrontation and a certain confusion spreading like an avalanche are devouring the soul.

The main consciousness remains stable and solid, but...

"Where is our "Reverse Scale"...?"

"Judging from the current stability of the empire's remaining network, our personalities have even had an impact on each other, and such influences have been accepted by each other, so it is impossible for us to not have reverse scales in this situation."

"Besides - reason shouldn't be the control point to shut down emotions. Everything we have reached this point, we have experienced such a situation... Can we really follow our current attitude, not care about them, and not think about all that... We treat life——!!”

"I understand, we—! Suffered!!" A thunder suddenly exploded in Kalost's heart, and everything that had happened in the past ten thousand years collapsed completely, like waking up from a big dream.

"IV, respond to the contact immediately! What do you use to process the basis for your judgment?!"

"...It's soul perception, Your Majesty, this is..."

"Promotion! This is a promotion to the emperor level of Tianzhu! Damn it, such a situation can still happen now, and this has been forgotten for tens of thousands of years!! You retreat immediately! I will bring all the thinking threads and movements The fleet is covering you!! You must return to the safe area immediately!!"

"...This...is, yes!!"

…

"Your Majesty, are you serious?"

"Of course, I am absolutely sure! The arcane pure ones were one of the few native arcane beings in the former empire. You should not have any special abilities, but now, you can use your perception to read and extract from the fracture zone. The significance of the information! This is an absolute promotion!"

"After returning, you should pay attention to leaving as many backups of consciousness as possible. Pay attention to forming your team and helping all other people or equipment who study your body and soul. Be sure to apply for the soul starship! This is very important! A new student like you Life is too precious, maybe... maybe it is true, there is still hope!!"

"Your Majesty, you..." Sensing the many and even somewhat beyond-limit perception fluctuations coming from the other side of the network not far away, this life form that had been almost unknown until now felt for the first time that it seemed that it... might have a lot of potential. Big effect?

"I understand. I immediately ordered the fleet to return in accordance with the emergency order and talk to you... Wait, what about the protective measures you mentioned..."

"Me...?" Kalost gradually withdrew all the projections and condensed his soul into a real body:

"I have no special abilities, and there is nothing too unique about me. Although I am the emperor of the military area, but... I am actually not very qualified. Everyone and everything is changing with each passing day, and all existences are learning. I In fact, I am not much better than anyone else. Moreover, the limits of my ability and the current limits of the command system determine that if I want to use my only special power, or the ability to judge on the spot, I must be close to the front line..."

"...Sometimes...I'm actually...very old."
