The voice of Abyss Xilin came from all directions: "I am here to remind you to withdraw your troops."
The scene was quiet for a few seconds before I burst into tears and laughter: "If you say withdrawal, then withdraw Ah?, why are you speechless?"
"Do you really think you can knock down the entire abyss zone this time?" Abyss Xiling just asked a question lightly, "The advancement speed of God Clan has slowed down, and how much can you continue to move forward?" ? "
The abyss Xi Ling silenced me and Shandora in one sentence: We have discussed this issue before.
Can this expedition wipe out the entire abyss zone?
When I first negotiated a joint march with God Clan, I was still very optimistic. I felt that this unprecedented military operation might have the opportunity to wipe out the entire abyss zone, but after the actual war, it seems that there is no one What I started thinking was so smooth: the army that God Clan can use is smaller than expected, and the resistance in the abyss zone is also surprising. More importantly, the internal division of Fallen Apostles is not the same as expected: they did have a civil war as we expected, but the civil war did not consume too much of their strength. Fallen Apostles split into two parts, the new army and the old army. It seems completely opposite, but according to those logs, this split seems to be completed under a planned situation. The two old and new Fallen Apostless only used limited military friction to determine the leadership of the abyss zone, but they are far from direct. Consume yourself to the point of disability. Now the appearance of the abyss Xi Ling in front of everybody proves one more thing: the old army did not die, they were only partial.
The foundation of Fallen Apostles is there, so God Clan soon encountered a powerful counterattack from the enemy. It can be said that they successfully dragged the Fallen Apostles main force, but the reverse is also true: Fallen Apostles dragged the God Clan's army-and the abyss The district still has the power to continuously send reinforcements to the Empire Army front.
In this case, it seems impossible to knock down the entire abyss zone by this war. We have confirmed this after some deliberation, so the goal of action has changed from straight hitting Huanglong to being able to fight. How much is counted. It seems that the abyss Xi Ling also sees through this.
"This is a very subtle state, isn't it?" Abyss Xi Ling smiled, and seemed to be completely unable to feel the atmosphere of tension between us and her. "God Clan is in the most powerless period, and the number of your army is also Question, although my empire has been divided, it still retains almost 90% of its strength-of course, half of them have not listened to my orders very much, but this is not important, facing you and God Clan's pressure, even those The disobedient guys will also be on the front line ... you ca n’t beat the entire abyss zone, and continuing to advance will only increase the battle damage quickly. I know that you quickly block the fleet sent by the "new army" by quickly destroying the sovereign hub You are in the territory, but you should be very smart. This signify will face a large number of enemies when you advance to the inland zone ... all will be "accumulated". "
"It sounds like we are negotiating, and it seems that we are thinking for us," Shandora looked at the Hologram image with his arms around his chest. "What's the benefit for you? Really do what you want, even if you let it go Empire Army and God Clan continue to attack, and we can't hit the inland of the abyss zone, so you can still survive without doing anything, and as long as the God Clan retreat is supported, Fallen Apostles can even make a comeback, so you should not be for self-protection ... … "
"Who would ask the enemy to retreat for such a boring reason," Abyss Xilin interrupted Shandora's lightly, "I just do n’t want to waste my time and energy on worthless things-I still There are very important things to do. "
"What do you think of us as fools?" Icetis said loudly, "You can't clear quietly and engage in your own small conspiracy after we retreat? Who will watch your opponent sharpen his knife at home."
Abyss Xilin smiles indifferently: "Yes, I can concentrate on doing things after you retreat, but you do n’t retreat and just spend time here, at best, it can only interfere with my energy. If you are really smart , You should choose the route that maximizes profits, so the most important thing now is to end this farce quickly-you have got the results you want, four border World, if you use them as nodes, you can put a dozen Universe I will be included in my sphere of influence, and believe me, if I continue to push forward, I will not get a bigger result than this. "
"Oh, we got a little territory and retreated with satisfaction, and then you continue to clear quietly to get your" big cause ", maybe one day the whole Void will be turned upside down, which is quite cost-effective for you," Shandora Squinting at eyes and looking at each other, "You are really not good at negotiating and treat us all as fools."
"Perhaps you are right, I do n’t quite understand the thinking habits of you tangible creatures, I will only put all the pros and cons on the table, and then calculate the value of them accurately with you, and finally choose one Options that are beneficial to both parties, it seems that you do n’t accept this way of thinking ... well, then add another chip: if you continue to march, the "new army" and "old army" will end the division, regardless At that time, who is ruler in the abyss zone, you will have no trouble, and if you retreat, the frictional confrontation between the "new army" and the old army will continue, so at least for a long a period of time, you No need to worry about the threat of the abyss zone. How about this chip? "
"Aha, it seems that you are cooperating with us, weakening Fallen Apostles in and out," it seems that the abyss Xi Ling said too unbelievable, Shandora couldn't help laughing, "This chip is quite weighty , But the question is ... do n’t you think this is incredible? You and we should be dead enemies! "
"I said, I have no hostility towards you," Abyss Xiling said his eyes on me and Icetis when he said this, "I take action based on logical judgment and calculation, and this series of actions happens to be You are in conflict, that's all. Now the logical judgment and calculation results let me reduce the confrontation with you, which has nothing to do with any personal feelings. "
After the abyss, such as Shandora quietly, finished talking, and discussed with us in the spiritual connection: "A'Jun, how much do you think this guy said is credible?"
"There is no way to judge. We have n’t even studied the Greek Spirit in Shadow City thoroughly. Who knows what the thought process of this kind of network ghost is," I replied rather eloquently, "theoretically she should be right , Abyss Xiling is a network consciousness, relying on things such as logic libraries and protocols, so she should have no concept of good and evil and enemy consciousness, but this guy has been mutated for tens of thousands of years, who knows that she still does not press Logic comes ... "
"No matter how mutated, her life form has not changed," Shandora murmured, "Abyss Xilin may not really have" hostility ", she acts based on her logic and calculations, whether it is against us or against us. Our cooperation is one of the calculation results ... I am now considering another aspect: Are her proposals reliable? "
It seems that Shandora has decided to believe that the abyss Xiling is "not hostile". This statement is indeed incredible, but it is not incomprehensible to think about it. You can think about the blue screen of the system when you usually use a computer and play games. When all kinds of black hands are drawn, and when the cards are drawn, they are not white-is this software hostile to users?
Of course not, it ’s pure black ...
The abyss Xiling is a life body similar to a program. Of course, she has a complete personality, self-awareness, and is not restricted by rigid logic. It is completely different from "artificial intelligence" in the general sense. Here she and The procedure is similar to her "Code of Conduct". When the final goal is clear, she will make a series of actions according to her needs. These actions will be against Empire Army, but they may also cooperate with Empire Army, but no matter how they act, one thing is always the same: with her No personal feelings.
Her feelings and actions are completely separated, and everything is based on logic. This is the programmed side of the abyss Xiling-theoretically is like this.
"To listen to what she said, it is really not good for us to continue playing," Onee-sama listened to our discussion for a long time, and at this moment only commented, "God Clan ca n’t be touched, we ’re at the top here. It can kill a few more border World, but it can not be able to hold it down. If the front is too long, our troops will be tight. "
"And Fallen Apostles may end the split and reunify at any time ... Oh, the concubine knows why the abyss Xilin is so looking forward to our retreat, and dare to still have their own ideas," Icetis said, thinking suddenly What, she shot her head and looked up at the Hologram image in the center of the hall, "The ghost shadow over there, you are worried that if we continue to fight, the" new army "and the" old army "will be passively reorganized, and then you may completely control it. Live the situation? "
The expression of Abyss Xi Ling remains the same: "Yes, if the external pressure reaches a threshold, the network split will end, and I am only 50% sure that I can maintain control of the empire after the network is reintegrated. I do n’t want things out of control-it ’s also a worse situation for you, the new army ’s master is a more troublesome guy than me. ”
"You want to say that the rule of Fallen Apostles by you is a little less harmful than the rule of the new army, right?" Shandora nodded, "Perhaps that is true ... Now it seems that we really have no other good way to go."
The abyss Xi Ling smiled: "Yes, the big picture is the most important thing. You do n’t have to give up greater interests because of your intentions. So, the negotiation is completed like this?"
"Not yet," I suddenly interrupted the opponent, "We agree to withdraw the troops now, but there are a few questions before this, of course, you can not answer, I just ask: What is the cause of Daye, you It ca n’t be revealed at all? What happened to the splitting of the abyss zone? And finally—what happened to this Universe, where have all the people gone? ”
"Three of the questions, two of them are the most difficult to answer," Abyss Xi Ling sighed, "About the great cause ... Well, before that I really think this has nothing to do with you, but since you are right This is really so persistent, maybe it ’s okay to tell you now ... Do you know 'bridging'? "
The word "bridge" came out, and the scene was unprecedentedly silent.
I am no stranger to these two words-the mysterious civilization in the "Across the Shore" in the abyss mentioned "bridge" more than once!
"Daiye is a bridge?" Even Icetis, a careless female gangster, was dumbfounded. "You have tossed so much, and it's World's end, and it's a strong attack on God's Domain, for the purpose of bridging ?! Bridge should tell you something ... "
The abyss Xilin takes nodded for granted: "It's a thing-open a channel from this side of the abyss and go straight to the opposite bank. In the final analysis, it is such a simple process."
"It takes you to destroy so many World ?!" My sister stared at eyes, and even she has never liked to talk, she can't help but intervene now, "And you still collect the heart of World everywhere ..."
"Do you know how to build a bridge?" Abyss Xiling threw this question out neatly without waiting for her sister's voice to drop.
Seeing that we shook our heads, the corner of the mouth of the abyss Xi Ling slightly raised: "At least we know one of them-the fastest one. Perhaps there is a gentle way of bridging, you can use it without destroying so many orders Universe Less than the heart of World, but I have to build the bridge before the catastrophe of Void. There is no choice but nothing more. "
"This is also related to the Void cataclysm ?!" I feel that the amount of information is overwhelming myself. "Your great cause is to build a bridge to the" offshore "before the Void catastrophe? Why? To avoid the cataclysm? "
"Building a bridge is just the first step. My ultimate goal is to return the empire to its peak again, and there is no possibility of falling again," the abyss looked at us with a smile, "Do n’t show that look, I said. It ’s all true, except that the empire I want to rebuild is a little bit different from the great kingdom in your mind. It ’s not surprising that I fight for my camp. As for avoiding the Void cataclysm ... In fact, this from the very beginning is not established The proposition, new emperor, when you touched the abyssal Xiling network tens of thousands of years ago, we do n’t have to worry about the Void catastrophe ... Do n’t forget, Fallen Apostles is your indirect creation Came out. "
I was speechless, and the Shandora and Icetis and other people beside me looked at this with strange eyes.
Abyss Xilin was right. Fallen Apostles was created by me indirectly. This was known when I went to the deep network of Icetis to check the "rift valley" and encountered the abyss Xilin.
In the catastrophe that led to the collapse of the empire 70,000 years ago, I reached an agreement with my sister (predecessor) who was the 15-day district ruler at that time, and went to resist the abyss that spread to the 15-day district, but Since the concept fragmentation could not resist the power of Void Creature's information, my strength crossed the barrier created by the concept fragmentation, and had a brief contact with the Old Empire data network that was completely contaminated at that time.
This is a little bit of power to disperse the past, which greatly weakened the abyss activity in the Old Empire network and enabled a large number of infected Xiling Apostle to complete the transformation alive-they are now Fallen Apostles.
If I had n’t been so careless 70,000 years ago, today ’s Fallen Apostles and the abyss zone would never survive.
We used to think that Fallen Apostles might take action because of the fear of the Void cataclysm, and associate their "big cause" as a self-help, but now the abyss Xiling wakes everyone up in one sentence: Since Fallen Apostles is indirect creation of Void Creature When they came out, their from the very beginning was "marked" with a "forgiveness mark", and they had no fear of the Void catastrophe!
"Then you ..." I looked at the Abyss Xiling, but I was interrupted by the other party just after saying three words.
"Say so many today, you must be interested in more details of Daye, but now is not the time to explain these," Abyss Xi Ling issued a guest order to us, and began to close the Hologram projection in the hall one by one. "We will meet again soon. Regarding the division of the abyss zone ... don't dig deeper, I'm not going to tell you."
When the last projection of Abyss Xi Ling is about to disappear, Icetis shouted the last question in his throat: "Then you at least tell us what this Universe is all about! What does it mean to dismiss all the people here?" ? White gave us? "
"It's a gift for you, this Universe is just a test product, used to test new technologies that can allow me to talk securely with Void Creature ... I have collected enough data, and the border World has been beaten down by you. A large film, you can dispose of this Universe at will ... "
As the voice fell, the figure of the abyss Xiling finally disappeared before our eyes.
"I feel that I heard a lot of incredible things," I turned over eyes and looked at ceiling at a forty-five degree angle that is harmless to humans and animals. "But it seems that I didn't understand anything ..."
"That guy always talked like this. Last time I also said a lot of inexplicable things in the Rift Valley," Icetis looked at the Hologram devices that had returned to standby quite annoyed. No, the dialogue in which the initiative is in the other party's hands made Sister Bing very uncomfortable. "Then? Are we really going back like this?"
"Notify the whole army and prepare to retreat." Shandora ignored Icetis, but directly established contact with the imperial fleet on the track. Sives did not ask much, and began to execute the order neatly. It was the two lunatics. "Why is it happening! Why didn't you play it? How did you withdraw it? Only four Universes can be watched?"
"We just met the abyss Xilin," I replied smoothly, "There are a bunch of communications below ..."
I have n’t finished talking yet, and the two lunatics burst into tears immediately: "What !? The enemy! The enemy dares to ambush the general, and also ambush the general her brother! Where are you from the abyss! There is a kind of you Come out to this ship! See this ship smashing your base! The main gun of this ship, you are not afraid of the main gun, you will come out to this ship ... "
"Okay, she just showed her face in the communicator," I interrupted the crazy AI who was already excited, "I now have tons of new information to deal with, and Fallen Apostles The situation is better than we expected. It is not the time for the final battle. Prepare to retreat. "
The madman AI held back for a long time, and finally "Oh" was helpless, but Shandora showed a thoughtful look, it seemed that she had any ideas.
"Withdrawal is no problem ..." Shandora said slowly, "but I think we should leave something ... Fallen Apostles's border, it's time to change the shape."
(You said this information is not big!)
