Chapter 699 Dark Star
"What is the meaning of life?"
"The meaning of life is continuation."
"Continuation of what?"
"Our 64 personality matrices will ensure the continuation of human civilization, which is freedom, struggle, pioneering, progress, justice, wisdom, unity, and the miracle of faith that shines in the galaxy. We will uphold it." "
I swear to eliminate the fallen races in the 258.4 billion star systems in the Milky Way and eradicate the mistakes of past history, from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean to the northernmost nebula in Centaurus."
"Give me the fire that burns the stars." "
Give me the spear that pierces the sub-space."
"Give me the sound of the bell."
"Following this oath, the 17th Mechanical Council is established. We will use the chapter of steel strings to cleanse the sea of stars and use the broken mechanical wings to protect the last fire of mankind."
"Until the fire in the heart of the Milky Way is extinguished."
"Until the electromagnetism stops rotating."
"Until all impure species perish."
Layers of mechanical figures covered the sky. They numbered tens of millions, singing in unison. Their silver-white steel wings reflected the light, making the night like day and the cold wind like the blazing sun.
Pairs of electronic eyes as transparent as gemstones opened, and the light in them flowed. All voices and wills were consistent and synchronized at this moment.
The bodies cast from steel alloys showed the beauty of aerodynamic curves and the high efficiency and uniformity of industrialization.
Billions of mechanical synthesized voices were common and the same. Those pairs of glass-like eyes were not as rigid as traditional mechanical AI, but were filled with boiling fighting will, like flames hidden in them, swaying endlessly.
On that day, among the endless silver-white wings, a new sun slowly rose.
The holy crown shadow gradually condensed and became substantial, outlined by extremely neat and dense lines.
In the center of the incomparably complex branding pattern, a hazy consciousness is slowly taking shape. It relies on the consciousness of all mechanical bodies to condense and refine their overall spirit.
At this moment, all mechanical bodies are connected to this magnificent network. They are one and also ten thousand, and all are the same.
[Mechanical Sun·Soft] was born on this day. The ripples of the Sea of Ekaka it caused also instantly spread to the entire star sea and were sensed by all other dark suns.
It is destined to be a traitor among the dark suns, burying all the apostles of the dark suns, and a martyr who will eventually self-destruct. From the moment it was born until it was completely torn apart and destroyed 245 years later, the battle never stopped.
————
In the hall that had been silent for a thousand years, the sleeping mechanical bodies opened their bright red eyes one by one, and their hearts that had stopped for a long time began to beat again. The Ekaka particles in the air were sucked in again, and then entered the incomparably complex artificial heart, ignited and detonated, and transformed into abundant energy to spread the rusty body.
Click, click, click…
The sound of metal friction and air jets echoed throughout the hall. Because of the long period of stillness, these artificial angels were like twisted puppets, twisting unnaturally and making strange noises.
At this moment, Tilan and Celitia retreated rapidly. Their figures seemed like streams of light, shuttling through the complex interior of the warship until they rushed out of the wreckage-like warship and were washed by the dark and cold sea water.
This was not over yet. The two of them rushed to the sea surface almost without stopping. This was different from descending to the bottom of the sea. The speed was nearly ten times that of when they came, and they were still pushing forward with all their strength.
A minute later, two water lights suddenly exploded on the sea surface and then rushed into the sky.
Not long after they rushed out, silver-gray figures also jumped out of the sea like flying fish, soaring straight up towards the blue sky.
The gorgeous particle beams penetrated the atmosphere, leaving residual light spots along the flight paths of the two people.
Although most of them were artificial angels of Sequence 7, like Loloria, their behavior was far less flexible and varied than the other party, and their attack methods were also extremely single, as if they had lost their souls. This situation made it impossible for Tilan to explain and reconcile even if she wanted to.
Since these artificial angels flew out, lightning and thunder came from the storm more and more violently. Just as Tilan and Celitia kept dodging the densely chasing shooting beams behind them, a giant floating battleship penetrated the spiral cloud layer of the eye of the storm and came to the central Eden area.
Some rusty battleships kept dripping with water, and the mottled turrets on them turned and rotated, constantly adjusting the shooting angle, aiming at the two small figures moving in the air.
Half a minute later, a magnificent beam of light nearly ten meters wide shot across the sky obliquely, breaking a gap in the eye of the storm.
The airflow began to become turbulent, and a large amount of water vapor was engulfed in this calm eye of the storm. While Tilan was flying in the strong wind, a silver light appeared between his eyebrows, and the silver holy sword slowly appeared in the palm of his hand.
On the other side, Celitia flew into the air and turned quickly. Her snow-white wings passed through the golden light. A few golden lines flashed by. Then her amber eyes glowed. A brilliant beam of light shone down from the top of the sky, covering her body.
The golden hemispherical barrier unfolded, separating the particle beams that kept shooting and impacting. Then, a second pair of wings gradually expanded and grew behind her. When they were fully grown, a faint halo covered the surface of Celitia's body. This seemingly thin halo easily resisted and blocked those scattered shots.
Then, she grasped a light gun condensed by the magic power of the angel sequence, shot it back, penetrated several artificial angels that soared up, and turned them into broken electronic garbage. The
wanton light and heat rose around her body, causing the surrounding water vapor to evaporate and the air to twist. After entering the combat state, this genius of the silver wing species began to show her true strength.
In the sky, when the silver rose holy sword flashed, it was officially held in Tilan's palm. Facing the artificial angels chasing behind her, she did not use the holy sword's ability to transform as in the past, but focused on using it to strengthen her one-on-one killing ability.
Cutting·Godspeed·Separation·Transformation·Blocking·Breaking the Air
First of all, it was godspeed. Under the halo of the holy sword, Tilan's speed jumped again, flying in the sky in a dazzling manner. In a few breaths, she shook off the artificial angels who were chasing her relentlessly, and then swooped down, shattering the sky with one sword. About 14 artificial angels were torn into two in the sky. Although they were also extraordinary beings of the spirit sub sequence 7, after a thousand years of stillness and corrosion, their combat effectiveness was far less than before.
Is this the power of judgment? Tilan turned in the air, feeling the smooth feeling of unimpeded when she chopped the sky just now. Even the extremely hard super alloy had no resistance in front of this holy sword.
Seeing that they could not catch up, the artificial angels began to launch various missiles in reserve. The thick white smoke and fire flooded the sky, and flew towards the small dot in the air with various trajectories.
In response, she held the sword in both hands, gently deflected it, and then swung the blade, a blurry space ripple passed by, and the approaching missiles were all shattered and detonated in the ripples.
After that, Tilan rushed and dived again, and the blade shone brightly, turning it into a meteor, which disappeared in an instant. When the artificial angels chasing it reacted, the girl had already come to the sea.
Defeating these artificial angels has never been something she must do. The key is to get the control code from Olivia.
After receiving Tilan's instructions, Celitia also poured magic power into the spear in the air, smashed the obstacles along the way and descended into the sea, and followed Tilan to rush into the seabed again.
For the two, these old and self-conscious artificial angels are powerful, but not fatal.
After re-entering the sea, the two rushed to the ruins of the underwater battleship where they were before.
Now, Lololia is also fighting hard there. As the only artificial angel who is still awake, her identity does not seem to be recognized. The remaining artificial angels here continue to attack her and ask her to hand over the highest authority, accept the rewriting of consciousness and the reshaping of code. Lololia is naturally unwilling to such a request. She does not want to become the same as them.
She finally waited for the time to wake up,
finally met the living native humans,
and finally knew that it is now the beautiful era of the sixth era.
She does not want to return to the endless dark time.
As a mechanical life, she also has her own ideas and preferences. This is her persistence, her imperfection, her uniqueness, and it is also an important node that distinguishes her from the heartless AI.
Various information and data flowed at high speed in her emerald eyes. She kept dodging and responding to various attacks. The emerald lightsaber extended from her arm collided with the besieged artificial angels, causing violent sparks and debris. The spreading high temperature softened some metal structures in dark red, and then the two separated. Lololia waved her right hand, and a strange silver mist ice shield emerged. Although it only hindered the opponent for one second, it was enough for Lololia to gain the opportunity.
She changed the structure of her palm, and the blue jet rotated and changed, causing its speed to rise sharply. She shuttled at high speed in this battleship, avoiding the encirclement of multiple opponents.
During the flight, a special mark symbol flashed in Lololia's pupils, and two emerald green magic crystal light blocks gradually condensed in her palm. After flying a distance, she turned suddenly and closed her arms. The two crystals also expanded rapidly and then transformed into huge gun barrels.
[Dieke Luo Equation·Cui Sheng 19]
The barrel of the gun is like a huge and short and thick tobacco pipe. When the attached structures on both sides are injected with magic power, they are like rotating wheels, constantly compressing and infusing the magic power, and evolving and stimulating it according to a special formula.
Four three two one
The brilliant beam of light penetrated the corridor and submerged the artificial angels chasing behind. All the metal structures that were irradiated had some foamy structures, and then collapsed into fragile debris and scattered in the torrent. This is not the ability of the artificial angels of the Rho Mechanical Council. In fact, the Dieklo equation originated from the Sigma Mechanical Council. After being continuously improved by the faction of the Sons of the Stars, it presented various schools that changed based on this. The one that Loloria is using now is one of them. Although Tilan did not practice the spirit sub sequence, she also understood and memorized a lot of related knowledge when she was studying in the Crystal Grid Academy during high school. These things were passed on to Loloria, so that she could use them after a little deduction and improvement, because the spirit sub sequence secret technique originally developed for mechanical bodies was perfect for her. After dealing with the pursuers behind, Lololia felt relieved. She even had time to collect the destroyed artificial angel chips and decode and analyze the problems. Half an hour later, Tilan and Celitia returned to the ruined warship again. After a fierce battle, they roughly dealt with the few artificial angels left here. "Time is running out, let's go to Olivia." Tilan held the dazzling holy sword in her hand. When she swung the sword, the overflowing light seemed to turn into liquid, condensing in the passage and the four walls, spreading to the exit in the distance. Then these liquids formed a transparent crystal barrier like huge bubbles, blocking the entire passage. "I will open the way." Celitia turned and moved forward. The light gun in her hand turned into a two-handed sword, flashing with electricity. In the process of rushing forward, she chopped off an artificial angel holding a lightsaber, and then swept the sword across, and the golden current overflowed, paralyzing the two artificial angels for a short time. Then she turned around and tore the wings of the two artificial angels from the side and back, breaking the core of the other's chest. With the help of this gap, Tilan moved forward at a high speed, like a stream of light, straight through the corridor, and directly to the hall where she was before. There were still four artificial angels left here. Their bodies were made of dark gold alloy, and their structural strength was clearly stronger than other artificial angels. The four of them held copper-colored mechanical gun swords to block Tilan's approach, and formed a strong force field with each other, so that Tilan was repelled by the special repulsive force when she wanted to break through from behind , and could not move flexibly. Especially when these four artificial angels aimed their gun swords at Tilan, she felt that the space around her seemed to be imprisoned and extremely difficult. At this time, violent beams of light shot out from the four gun swords and focused on the girl in the center. Violent sparks appeared on her body. Although she was washed by such high-energy particles, as Tilan, who had the power of the Crystal of Bridging, this injury was not enough to destroy her body. Passive attacks are not an option. A flash of purple light appeared in her eyes, and the space around her shattered. She disappeared in the hall. When she reappeared, she had pierced the chest of an artificial angel with the silver holy sword. The dense components melted and disintegrated in the plasma sparks. When Tilan pulled out the sword, the artificial angel also shut down and slowly fell. Huh, it was a bit strenuous. After dealing with this one, Tilan used a similar method to deal with the remaining three artificial angels. Only at this time did the hall really quiet down. Looking at Olivia nailed to death by the holy sword on the high stone wall, Tilan slowly flew up with a slightly complicated mood. She looked at the bright holy sword and wanted to hold it, but found that the holy sword was particularly repellent to her, probably because she was not a silver-winged species. So she reached out and gently lifted Olivia's hair, revealing her mutilated face. The once beautiful artificial angel now had incomplete skin, revealing part of the metal mechanical structure, especially the jaw and neck. The wounds showed the damaged mechanical components inside, as well as the circuit lines and tubes. The once beautiful pupils were now dim and dark, like a turbid dark blue. When Tilan touched them, a delicately cut blue crystal fell from the eyeball and entered her palm. The emotions contained in it were particularly hot in the singer's perception, as if they were burning through time.
Holding this sapphire, countless images and pictures came to my face. It was the most tragic battlefield two thousand years ago. The whole galaxy was shrouded in war. Countless lives died and sublimated here. All free wills no longer exist, and they are all brainwashed by the dark sun.
He is the crystallization of human wisdom and power, and also the fruit of sin and pain.
If you want to fight against Him, you must embark on the same path as Him and become part of the same darkness.
In that era, no one could see hope. Even the ρ Mechanical Council, which inherited the will of the π Mechanical Council, was only fighting a struggle that was bound to fail. They knew it, and their opponents knew it too.
The four researchers of the Mechanical Council finally chose to betray the organization, saying that they gave up because they could not see the future. In fact, it was because they saw the future that they were so desperate.
No one can resist the huge temptation of becoming a god. The impulse to break all common sense and will always exists. Even if you don't step into it, someone around you will slip into it. If you want to stop all this from happening, you can only choose to take the same path as them.
The swaying star of darkness disappears into the sea of stars.
