In basic cognition, the "destruction effect" of the abyss on in this world all things is unconditional and unrestricted. The characteristics of the abyss are as follows: non-material, non-energy, any form that can not be described by the concept of in this world , It appears as a two-dimensional pattern in simple observation, and is usually accompanied by polluting black diffusers (smoke, dust, or other things that look similar). This black diffuse "object" is essentially It is not any matter, but a pure optical phenomenon, because the abyss destroys the basic rules within a certain range, which causes various optical rules to be distorted, and eventually produces an effect similar to "unobservable", which produces the kind of The "things" of black clouds are based on the same principle. The two-dimensional pattern presented by the abyss is also an optical phenomenon, not a real existence.

However, few people know that the simple abyss is actually not "killing".

This sounds strange. After all, the World destroyed by the abyss is countless. Its destructive power has always been the biggest disaster in Void. In the common sense of everyone, the abyss should be a kind of "lethal" Things-this is certainly true, but in the more professional Empire scientist in the eyes, the abyss is not lethal, but a kind of "leading".

The abyss has never directly destroyed anything. All the things that infected the abyss were eventually destroyed by themselves: they collapsed macroscopically and gradually disintegrated microscopically. The material began from a disaster that was visible to the naked eye until it was not The dissociation of the visible microscopic particles ended, the energy escaped, the time and space were disordered, and the order of Universe disappeared. Until the last World barrier began to digest itself, the entire World was swallowed by Void: a typical abyss pollution type World end. This whole process is caused by the abyss, but each step in the process is the "self-destruction" of the infected person, so we will say that the abyss is not lethal, they are only guiding the suicide of the infected World.

Although this explanation sounds a bit powerful, in order to ascertain the nature of the abyss, sometimes "research" is such a strong word and a bit of a horn. Of course, only Xi Ling technicians will drill such horns. For ordinary people, World does not mean suicide or homicide.

In the classic Universe such as capital city World, the destructive force shown by the abyss is that the entropy value of Universe soars to the limit of collapse in a short time, the whole World falls into chaos and heat, and World becomes a stagnant water in the heat balance and is gradually swallowed by Void In some Worlds with very different Universe rules, the abyss will manifest as misalignment and loss of some basic constants, or other energy disasters such as broken energy circulation chains, time axis twisting, dimensionality drop, etc. In short, no matter where, Invaded a regular World, then the all things in this World is difficult to resist: they will collapse from their own basis of existence and step into death. When the abyss infection is relatively minor, there are some tenacious mortal race that can last longer-such as the Twin star civilization circle we just left, but no matter how the indigenous people of Universe resist, no matter how long they can persist or even eventually disappear Their trace pollution of Universe, their resistance to the abyss is zero: this will not change.

Ordinary race can rely on human life to pile up, rely on strategy to bypass self-help, rely on courage and sacrifice to extend the life of race, but these ca n’t change the fact that secular things face zero resistance in the abyss. You will be infected, even if your spirit can last longer, your body will slowly collapse according to a strict schedule. The only exception is the "inert abyss" that is still a mystery. We still don't know much about the latter, so we won't discuss it for now, as long as we know that the inert abyss is the only moderate abyss.

At present, there are only four groups known to have Innate resistance to the abyss: Xiling Apostle, which has extremely high order stability due to its detachment from all World and Void quadrants, so it is resistant to the abyss; Starfield God Clan, because The reason of the Void ladder is equal to that of the abyss and World, so it is resistant; Huron God Clan, the reason is the same as the star domain God Clan; the last one is Fallen Apostles, because after being infected by the abyss, it has become a strange "symbiosis" The life form itself is after the collapse, so it has high abyss resistance, and for now, Fallen Apostles is more resistant to the abyss than the other three groups.

But now we seem to have found a fifth group: the Greeks, the ancestors of Xiling Apostle.

According to Harlan and Tavel's, all ancestors showed unusual resistance to the abyss-their practical "resistance" to explain what happened to them is a bit inappropriate, they are against the abyss under certain conditions Almost "immune", this is the unheard of situation!

The biggest difference between resistance and immunity is whether they will actually be harmed. In the face of the abyss, resistance will only reduce pollution for you, from fatal to non-lethal, and from severe to mild-but no matter how much it is reduced, pollution will still occur, even if it is weakened to a sneeze. The degree will not disappear in a real sense. Immune is a completely different situation: it will make the pollution completely ineffective, as if it did not happen, even if this "immunity" will only take effect at very low abyss concentrations, it also has a fundamental difference between resistance and resistance. .

What happened to the ancestors now looks more like a primary immunity: they did not show any discomfort after being exposed to the abyss of a safe dose (relatively safe, that is, the kind that can be rescued on the spot), After leaving the sample and purifying the body surface, a full-body examination revealed that within the body did not show any signs of lesions or collapse: it seemed that they had never been exposed to the source of contamination.

The Shandora quietly and I listened to the Tavel and Harlan complemented each other after finishing this series of discoveries, and the fact that they remained silent for a long time was a bit strange. I had to let my brain work for a while to keep up with the rhythm. Shandora reacted quickly, and she exhaled softly: "Tavel, should you guess something?"

"Yes, your majesty," Tavel nodded slightly. "It is not yet possible to determine the principle of the ancestor's immunity to the abyss. However, regarding the cause of this" immunity "phenomenon, the subordinates think it may be the same as the hometown World. Related to secondary pollution. "

I thought for a while: "You said they were infected with the abyss just like Fallen Apostles, but they didn't know?"

If this statement holds, then the current ancestors are actually a symbiosis, they have the same resistance as Fallen Apostles, but their resistance form is more high-level, reaching the level of immunity-how can this be explained?

By the way, there are no abyss residues on the ancestors, and there are no traces of being transformed. This is very different from the situation of Fallen Apostles.

Tavel really shook his head: "The chance of infection is not high, because there are no traces left on the ancestor, but the pollution that occurred in his hometown World must have changed the ancestor ’s form of life, making them able to with low concentration abyss. Safe Coexistence-The subordinates carefully studied various observation readings around them after the ancestors contacted the abyss sample, and the results showed that the abyss was in an inactive state: as if they did not find a appeared on their site that could be contaminated 'prey'. , Or ... "

"Abyss thinks it's his own." Shandora suddenly took over the second half of Tavel's bad words.

The glasses lady took a slight pause and nodded gently: "theoretically is like this."

"I want to know how great this immunity is," Shandora lightly tapped the table with his index finger. "What happens if it exceeds the limit."

"The test is too dangerous, and the subordinates did not dare to take this risk," Tavel replied honestly, "It can only be inferred indirectly based on some observation data, and the ancestors can be without direct contact with the door of the abyss. , No protective products will survive safely, and no traces of infection will be left afterwards. Even if this immunity limit is exceeded, the ancestors are also unusually resistant, they will be infected by the abyss very slowly, and once they leave the contaminated area , The collapse process caused by the abyss will immediately terminate on its own. theoretically is like this. "

This time it really can only be "theoretically is like this"-Tavel did not dare to really take the ancestors to make these terrible experiments. The above conclusions were all indirectly inferred from her observation data.

at this moment I suddenly thought of something: "How did you first discover this? Uh ... who dares to let the ancestors come into contact with the source of pollution?"

Tavel quickly explained: "Of course, we did not do this kind of dangerous experiment. We discovered the immunity of our ancestors to the abyss because of an accident. You know, near the deep diving port are dangerous areas, no matter how tightly protected, There will be a certain intensity of radiation pollution around the door of the abyss. The entire experiment base is inevitably exposed to the polluted environment. Therefore, everyone involved in the project needs to check body every a period of time and accept purification and neutralization treatment: Xiling Apostle uses quiet Yes, because the ancestors were fragile, they used a milder holy light for purification. But not long ago, when we summarized the historical data, we found that the ancestor ’s pollution detection reading before purification was always zero: work in low-pollution areas During the process, they have never been infected. This situation has never been seen before, and there is no possibility of individuals with zero pollution in the theoretically contaminated area. "

"Why haven't you found it before?" I asked curiously.

"Automatic equipment for individual purification only sets up a danger alarm," Tavel spreads its hands, "it will start only when it detects that the pollution level exceeds the standard. In addition, the pollution level is too low or no pollution at all. It will not be regarded as an 'abnormal signal', because no one would have thought that this would happen. theoretically is like this. "

I know nodded clearly, and I seem to think of something that has just happened recently, but this thought disappeared quickly, and my focus is still on Anthers: Immune Abyss-although it is only in the low Immunity under intensity is also enough to be called an unprecedented miracle. Let's not discuss how it happened. Now let's look at the role of this talent: the ancestor is a deep dive of Innate.

"This is quite ironic," Anthers grinned, crying, "The abyss ruined everything for us, but now we have become its" object of affinity ". The abyss and the Greeks should have never died The endless relationship, now the Xiling people have become the only non-polluting species in the abyss ... I do n’t care about the reason of what is this, let ’s participate in the deep diving program. If the technology and knowledge are not enough, we can learn and train. I know you are looking for No one is more suitable for this task than our old bones. "

Shandora frowns, I know that she is now fiercely fighting against herself: emotionally, she will not let her ancestors take any risks, especially when there are only more than ten ancestors, but rationally, She must admit that her ancestors are by far the most suitable "dips" as deep diving personnel. Although the converted Fallen Apostles has resistance, no matter how high the resistance is, it can't stop the fixed damage. Only the ancestors who can be immune to the abyss within a certain range can maximize the success rate of deep diving.

Let ’s imagine a situation where the deep dive ship is malfunctioning and the abyss is gradually affecting the interior of the spaceship. Then the first thing that should be down is the fragile spaceship control system. The at this moment deep dive must rely on manual control to let the spaceship escape the danger zone If they are ordinary operators, they may not be able to last longer than the spaceship control system, but the ancestors can remain absolutely sober during the period when the pollution has not reached the peak-in this case, they will be the only ones Crew members who may survive and complete the mission.

I know the thinking tendency of Xiling Apostle, so although Shandora is very contradictory, I also know what decision she will make. Sure enough, after some thinking, Her Majesty the Queen nodded slowly but firmly: "Well , I agree. "

I already knew the stubbornness of the old ancestors. They were as stubborn as the modern Apostle(s), so at this moment also nodded in agreement: "I also agree-but you ca n’t get on the ship immediately, first To receive training, secondly, let the other deep diving teams do a few surface trials and confirm the safety of spaceship before you dive in. "

The last nod of Harlan: "I agree. In addition, let the man on the deep dive ship leave it to me. The boys have been training for deep diving for a few days. Ca n’t end up not even letting them on board. ”

Tavel nodded after seeing the three heads, of course, there was no objection: "Then all three Emperor your majesty passed this issue, and their subordinates arranged deep diving training and surface manned trials."

When I think about it, I always feel like I missed someone ...

Shandora and I have a strong heart, and she rolls her eyes up in the sky: "Do you say Sylvia or Belavela? Both of them can only be counted as a half-vote: the former is lack of heart, the latter is basically abandoned ..."

Harlan nodded subtly beside her face: "Actually, I envy her. I don't want to do anything every day, so much happier."

"You also want to live this kind of life without thinking about anything?" I glanced at Harlan, "Simple, let Shandora cook for you, you do n’t want to eat anything, or I go Xingyu pulls a broken reminder called Qian Yuhao to talk to you and it will be fine, to ensure that your brain is empty within three days. "

The didn't expect's words Dragon God's reputation was so great that even Harlan had heard of it, he suddenly shrunk his neck: "You are too conservative, at that time my mind was empty for four days ..."

Then I learned that in the Old Empire era, Harlan had personally sent Starfield personally in the name of technology exchange. At that time, Starfield ’s responder was the broken reminder-so many years past Harlan was deep in the original thing memory .

at this moment Shandora finally ca n’t stand it anymore, and coughed a little next to it: "Well, we do n’t seem to be discussing this issue?"

I immediately sat down and dared not to continue the question.

Even if you understand everything about the deep diving project, I will wait for a while for the next deep diving: In order to ensure the safety of the manned voyage, the No. 2 deep diving ship needs to undergo a series of inspections and Minor repairs, the ship was exposed a lot of problems during the trial a few days ago, Tavel's next main job is to raise the performance and safety factor of the ship to the limit based on the current technology as much as possible, I I believe the ability of the glasses mother.

I and Shandora did n’t want to go to the reverse engineering laboratory again to meet another Tavel, so I asked here about the progress of reverse engineering and trial production of the Junlin warship.

"These projects are progressing very quickly," Tavel was very proud of the expression on his face when he talked about these, "Harlan your majesty brought most of the blueprints of Junlin, plus the research results we have mastered in the past two years, The subordinates are ready to try to build our own Kingship Warship. In addition to the reverse engineering aspect ... With the ready-made blueprint, reverse engineering is actually not much necessary. The main goal of the subordinates is to put the Kinglinger on top. Concession and miniaturization of large-scale equipment, and then installed on other active spaceship: Practice has proved that this approach is very effective. theoretically is like this. "

"Actually, we already have the Monarch Battleship now," I suddenly remembered something, and turned to Harlan and said happily, "This is thanks to the Imperial Logistics Transport Commander-in fact, I now suddenly feel that you were caught by me Come early, if you can stay in the Fallen Apostles camp for more than two years, maybe the monarchs and the genuine Star Wars on the new empire are all established ... "

Harlan: "... Isn't it good, don't take this as a topic!"

"The monarch brought by Harlan your majesty has been compiled into the Royal Fleet and First Regiment by Lord Seves, but this is only a temporary compilation," Tavel kept a meticulous expression when we were joking, she pushed her glasses , Explained very seriously, "Monarch Warships that have been transformed by the Abyss need special industrial foundations for maintenance and maintenance. Letting them and normal Empire Starships in a battle sequence will bring a lot of inconvenience to the logistics. This is It is difficult to solve with technical means: this is a process problem. So we still have to build the standard version of King ’s Lander as soon as possible. The super warships brought by Harlan your majesty will eventually be compiled back into the Abyss Independent Regiment. "

Harlan **** his mouth, and after thinking about it for a long time, he sums up a sentence: "... I am still a transport captain. The main role of things in my hands is to give you back and forth!"
