Walk alone in the abyss

The news that the Empire's Sixth Expeditionary Fleet was ambushed by Luofeng has not yet spread.

The full-channel speech of the old emperor of the Sherman Empire has already started live broadcast.

Immediately afterwards, the interstellar network of the Emperor Star Circle returned to normal, and the people of the Emperor Star Circle, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed to the unified network of the Empire, and found...they were suddenly delayed a little bit.

Not only was there a little more delay, their previous network traces have been cleared, and the entire network has become very clean.

From the Dixing circle to the outside, all kinds of posts on the Internet disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye;

In just a few minutes, the servers of 120 information portals were locked, and tens of billions of accounts were restricted from speaking;

The naval forces of the New Federation, the Guell Union, the United States of Freedom and other regimes suffered heavy losses, and their volume was reduced by more than half.

But all the people who have made remarks that are not conducive to the stability of the empire have received a warning.

This kind of warning has practical effects, and the imperial network world has become much quieter.

It was in this environment that the old emperor of the empire appeared in front of the people.

His figure appeared on the projection screens used for warning and guiding in the lanes and streets, on the large advertising screens in various squares, in various channels of home projectors, and in every corner of the Internet.

The people who were marching stopped;

Workers who are working stop what they are doing;

The assembled troops also suspended the non-combat orders they had received. The soldiers saluted the image of His Majesty the Emperor as required by their superiors, and then listened to the training honestly.

The old emperor deliberately changed into a black robe that would only be worn in honor of his ancestors. He wore a precious metal crown that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. He held a scepter that symbolized supreme power in his right hand. He spoke in a kind and gentle tone:

"My beloved citizens of the Sherman Empire:

"I believe everyone has already felt that our empire, the regime that has always protected us and provided us with a happy life, is now facing severe challenges under the deliberate instigation of external hostile forces.

"These foreign forces deceive our people, instigate and bribe some nobles, and deliberately do various incidents that arouse public grievances, in order to stir up public sentiment.

"Our empire is the greatest and most powerful empire in the galaxy.

"Our economy will not shrink due to the current turmoil, because we have enough resource reserves, and the empire is confident in ensuring that every citizen gets enough living supplies..."

The old emperor continued to give a speech full of emotion;

But the people all over the empire lowered their heads and looked at the network access device in their hands.

The live broadcast of the white ghost was finally launched after several delays.

Obviously, the live broadcast of the white ghost attracted more interest from the public than the live broadcast of the old emperor.

Emperor Star Palace, the headquarters of the Tentacle Organization.

Daphne, who was wearing a dark windbreaker, was crossing her arms and looking at the big screen in front of her.

In the middle of the big screen, His Majesty the Emperor's speech to appease the people was being played, which had been recorded in advance and was broadcast live. On the left side of the speech screen was the statistics, and below the statistics was a small window—the live broadcast of the white ghost.

Bad news ensues:

"Your Highness, the data here has been surpassed by the live broadcast of the white ghost."

"According to the feedback from the terminal, our viewership rate is only 26%... All official channels have been used."

"We can't block White Ghost's live broadcast room. Several departments have joined forces, but White Ghost's live server is just like his name, and it keeps popping up like a ghost."

"However, the data model predicts that we will maintain around 21 percent."

For Daphne, there is good news.

——In the live broadcast of the white ghost, the white ghost is lying quietly on the bed, and the assistant of the white ghost, the female assistant who had previously helped the governor's mansion in Saka, and the Valkyrie, are all guarding.

he's fine.

He is still alive.

He was nearly perfectly protected.

In this regard, Daphne can only sigh: "This is the appeal of the white ghost, there is no way."

"Then Your Highness, our data..."

"When speaking to the outside world, adjust the data a bit higher, don't tell my father about this," Daphne said, "don't affect my father's mood, it's just a small matter."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Daphne pricked up her ears, listening carefully to the conversation on the other side of the white ghost, and then excused herself that she was a little tired, and turned to the lounge in the corner.

After she closed the door, she glanced left and right, took out her private network access terminal, and turned on... the live broadcast of the white ghost.

The effect of the live broadcast of the emperor of the empire is just to have fun;

If you really want to look at the barometer of the imperial political arena, then you also need to look at the bed of the white ghost.

On the projection screen, Yang Ming lay motionless on the bed, and the instrument beside him displayed part of his body index.

026, who was guarding the bedside, wore a huge helmet, and answered the audience's questions selected by Li with a gentle voice, and the tights on her... made Daphne frown slightly.

'This figure must have been manipulated by a doctor. '

In the past week, for the first time in Daphne's mind, a topic that has nothing to do with imperial politics popped up.

Then, I heard this 'ghost assistant' speak softly:

"Why did you choose to broadcast live now? I don't know. The time was set by the boss, but the boss took a rest because of his weakness."

"Yes, the boss likes us to call him boss, we work for him, and he pays us wages, so that the boss feels that he doesn't owe us anything, and the boss won't worry about us starving to death when he runs away with buckets."

"Is the boss' technical team related to the New Federation?

"I think that those who can ask this question probably don't know how much the New Federation hates my boss.

"Before there were conspiracy theories saying that our boss, the white ghost, is a high-level agent that the New Federation paid a great price to raise within the empire, in order to mess up the empire.

"But dear, if our boss doesn't dismantle the insect burying plan of the new federation, the empire has now entered an active period of insect plague for several years, and the empire alone has entered the active period of insect plague, and the empire will gradually weaken.

"The problems of the empire now are actually the people's long-standing dissatisfaction with the aristocracy, and the protection of the aristocracy by the imperial law.

"Our position has never changed. We want to overthrow the aristocratic class of the empire and shape the Sherman Empire into a truly happy country. My boss told us before that he felt it was ridiculous. Why is there such a powerful empire? In the slavery system, more than one-tenth of the population is in the class below the common people.

"The biggest problem in human society is that it is impossible to eliminate the existence of classes. However, a political system, an enlightened, upward, and a government that considers the people, should find a way to eliminate the existence of classes, instead of acting as a protective umbrella for classes, or even Create your own class.

"Look, it is the parliamentary country represented by the new federation. This system is very good, but there is a flaw in this system, that is, over time, the parliamentarians are corrupted by capital.

"Especially when the ballot system encounters cheaters like public opinion controllers and history modifiers, ballots become a game of competing for money. Capital obtains taxes, operating costs, policy subsidies, etc. from the government by cultivating parliamentarians and politicians. Benefits, and what the congressmen themselves get is the support of capital and personal wealth.

"The scariest thing is that they take this corruption for granted.

"Why is the new Federation inferior to the Empire in terms of military strength? The cost of a warship of the same combat power is 162% of the Empire's.

"The zero-to-full ratio of a battleship, that is, the money you spend to buy all the parts of this battleship, compared with the price of the warship when it is delivered to the army, the lower the ratio, the better, because it means that the maintenance and maintenance costs will be lower. .

"The average odds ratio of the main warships of the Empire is 15%, and the average odds ratio of the main warships of the New Federation is 235%.

"This is what I just said, the system that will protect the high-level groups, the new federal government is the umbrella for those big companies.

"The empire is even stronger now. The empire has created a slave class to make a larger number of civilians feel superior, and then use this to maintain the stability of the empire, so that the common people accept the fact that they are trampled under by the nobles.

"Our boss's ideal has always been this, which is to return the imperial aristocratic class to the common people and eliminate the largest privileged class in the empire.

"Besides, the biggest problem facing the Sherman Empire today is actually the malignant tumor hatched by the noble class, the Sherman family.

"While I was telling you this, the Sherman family has launched a siege on our live broadcast.

"However, their technology is too backward. Our ancient technology is very powerful. Even if they encircle several galaxies, it will not affect our live broadcast."

Daphne smiled slightly.

This little assistant is quite cute.

That is, this figure is too exaggerated.

She herself is considered twigs to bear fruit, and it's okay that there is almost a gravitational distortion here.

Daphne slid her finger lightly, zoomed in on Yang Ming's helmet, and stared at him in a daze.

This live broadcast did not give much information.

The most valuable information is Yang Ming's state at the moment - the whirling look of that little girl is the best reference.

Others are all repeating the same old tune, and there is even a little bit of continued fire to the empire, allowing the people to continue to export to the nobles.

Interestingly, the assistant of the white ghost highly praised the current emperor of the Sherman Empire, saying that the emperor who had been scolded by the white ghost as a fool was a monarch who really wanted to do things for the people of the empire. All power was taken away by the old monsters of the Sherman family.

During the entire live broadcast, what surprised Daphne the most was that the Imperial Guard 2.0 system, which was blown up by those officials before, had been completely defeated in the battle to suppress the live broadcast of the white ghost.

Emperor Wei 2.0 is helpless against the live broadcast of the white ghost.

Ancient technology, really... so powerful?

Daphne lay on the sofa, thinking quietly.

...

Similar to Daphne's doubts, there is also the scientific research team responsible for developing Labrador.

The gray-haired old man kept saying: "Labor! Why didn't you stop them! You controlled the network connection between the stars! You can definitely do it!"

The image of Labudo sat quietly by the porthole, staring at the starry sky ahead, and turned to look at the old man when the old man had finished shouting.

"I will not shoot the white ghost, this is the agreement we reached before."

"I should clean all your core data! Oh! My God! The white ghost is now the enemy of the empire!"

"No, there is a problem with your cognition."

Labdo continued to look at the starry sky, and said calmly:

"The core power of the empire lies with His Majesty the Emperor. The great white ghost has discovered the root of the empire's problems, that is, the interest groups formed by the great nobles have completely emptied His Majesty the Emperor. This is the root of the problem.

"An order that has not been granted by the imperial authority is itself unrighteous in the empire.

"Now I follow your orders to protect this country, not to fully believe in your ideas."

The gray-haired old man danced and danced, but in the end he just let out a low growl, turned around and left quickly.

Labrador shook his head calmly:

They don't understand the power of the white ghost at all.

Ritsu, who witnessed all this, also shook his head in the thinking space:

This Labrador doesn't understand the power of the real mechanical thinking body god at all.

...

The live broadcast of White Ghost was essentially to compete with the old emperor's speech.

Under the premise of watching from the sidelines, they did this perfectly.

As soon as the half-galaxy-long live broadcast ended, Yang Ming took off his helmet and jumped up from the hospital bed.

After 026 took off his helmet, he quickly untied the armor on Yang Ming's body.

"Lun, how is the battle going?"

"The Sixth Expeditionary Fleet of the Empire is at the end of its strength," Law's realistic image instantly condensed, "Most of our ships have been evacuated and reorganized, and the second ambush will start soon. Now our final goal is to destroy or capture that A dreadnought."

Yang Ming looked at the sand table map ahead.

After half an hour of hard work by the Luofeng Fleet, the Sherman Empire that invaded the New Auri Empire temporarily reorganized the Sixth Expeditionary Fleet, and now there are only less than two hundred ships left.

Although the Luofeng Fleet withdrew most of its ships to open up a second battlefield, it still maintains superior firepower.

It can be seen that Li really wants that dreadnought ship, and dozens of heavy battleships and shield ships crowded around the dreadnought ship.

"How long will it take for the imperial reinforcements to arrive?"

"The reinforcements from three directions were all held back by us and the fleet of the New Auri Empire.

"The largest reinforcement, the formation consisting of more than 620 ships, will soon be in our pocket."

Law quickly said:

"It should be noted that the empire has assembled a reinforced battle group composed of 5,000 warships, with the purpose of destroying our force. They are on their way, and the vanguard will appear in this airspace in about forty-two minutes. .”

"In other words, we have to resolve the battle within twenty-five minutes."

There was a little light in Yang Ming's eyes:

"Let's put out some hole cards."

"Boss, are you going to use the Terminator to break into the ship? Or expose us to some new anti-ship weapons?"

"Forget about the Terminator, it's better for me to charge in with them," Yang Ming said, "I'll take down that dreadnought, and you find a way to get those heavy warships down."

"Uh, boss, I've actually been able to take care of these heavy warships. The drones have sent enough nano-sensors into them, but you might not have enough time to raid the dreadnoughts."

Law whispered:

"If you want to join the battle, I suggest you lead the team.

"Battleships are bombing or something. If you have to worry about your actions in those ships, the overall efficiency will be greatly reduced."

Yang Ming's forehead was covered with black lines.

Made!

Has he become a burden?

"That's fine, you come."

Boss Yang went back to the hospital bed and lay down, complaining a little depressed:

"It's not time for me to knock out the queen with an uppercut.

"Come on, show me the show, what can you do to get these ships!"

Lv suddenly narrowed his eyes with a smile, then picked up the walkie-talkie decently, and projected more than a dozen projection screens above the hospital bed, so that Boss Yang could witness it with his own eyes.

"assault."

As soon as Li's voice fell, the picture on the projection screen changed at the same time, showing the detailed situation of the core area of ​​the battlefield.

The unmanned aerial vehicle group is as before, conducting medium and short-range bombing around the dreadnought ship;

In just a few seconds after Law's order was issued, the entire drone group, more than three million 20-meter-class drones, avoided the core area of ​​the Sherman Empire Fleet's firepower network and gathered dozens of metal torrents towards The dreadnought pounced.

Deep Space Tentacles!

Yang Ming's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of similar situations.

"Zerg tactics?"

"Hmm," Li said with a smile, "Bionic tactics, insects are also life."

The fleet of the Sherman Empire fought stubbornly and immediately adjusted its firepower deployment, but the synchronous fire cover of the peripheral Luofeng ships made it difficult for the remnants of the already precarious Sherman fleet to continue.

Yang Ming quietly watched this scene.

After paying nearly one percent of the casualties, the drone swarm directly submerged the huge dreadnought ship.

Then, the scene that made the Sherman Empire soldiers desperate happened again.

Just like the insect swarm will mix various difficult special insects among the ordinary adult insects that serve as cannon fodder;

Among these drones, there are various special fighters.

The shield generator of the dreadnought was disturbed, and holes appeared in the shield;

The drone swarm covered the periphery of the dreadnought, the near-defense system of the dreadnought was paralyzed, the entire shipboard network was unable to operate, and the power-related cabins were cut off from the outside world.

Then, more than 100,000 drones released the mechanical guards hidden in their abdomen.

The mechanical guards got into the hull of the dreadnought ship one by one, sweeping the entire dreadnought ship like a tide.

Yang Ming watched this scene quietly, and asked with a frown: "Dark Star's combat system is already so strong now?"

"This kind of tactics is quite restrictive," said Li with a smile, "and each drone has a mechanical thinking body as the driver. If it is a super-large-scale battle, we don't have so many mature mechanical bodies. Mechanics are not enough. However, this can be solved in a way similar to the third Scourge expansion."

Yang Ming nodded, looking at the progress bar below.

The progress bar was steadily increasing, and when it reached the 60% pass line, the progress bar directly turned into a green light.

Dreadnought, captured!

It's too late today, continue tomorrow
