Three hours before the war.
In addition to the "purple cloud world" controlled by the cloud family, in many military towns controlled by the other three families and at various jumping points in the outer world of the Empire, a fleet has completed the final assembly, including "solar catapult" and other types of four-dimensional space jumping devices, all of which are in full bloom.
Three hours later, hundreds of thousands of starships from hundreds of thousands of worlds will jump to the small seven seas star field and completely submerge there.
The battle of the seven seas is imminent. The whole sea of stars is filled with the smell of gunpowder. However, the imperial capital in the center of the vortex shows the tranquility in the eyes of the storm.
The polar horizon, the Celestial Star, the deep underground of the imperial capital.
The underground remains explored by Li Yao, long Yangjun and others a few months ago have expanded the excavation area dozens of times, and finally revealed an ancient building similar to a pyramid.
The surface of this crystal clear pyramid seems to be covered with a layer of confusing twisting force field, which makes it bloom with magnificent colors all the time, filling every inch of the underground space, as if turning the darkness deep underground into a colorful ocean.
The volume of the exposed rock is as huge as a towering palace. Each slope of the pyramid is at least four or five thousand meters long, but the volume still buried in the ground is still huge.
It is inconceivable that there is no gap on the surface of such a huge ancient building. It seems that it is not built with blocks of rocks, but with uncanny craftsmanship!
Around the pyramid, there are countless mysterious and complicated words. Each word is like a labyrinth like cube, which contains more abundant information than human civilization. Under the brilliant contrast, all the words are floating in the air and spinning gently.
This scene in the depths of the earth is like a strange dream, completely detached from the real world.
At the moment, there are countless imperial soldiers belonging to the reformists, and they continue to work around the pyramid. There are also a small team of researchers, going in and out of the pyramid.
All of a sudden, the three-dimensional Rune array suspended around the pyramid sent out a dull ripple. An imperial soldier screamed and jumped up, holding his head and roaring.
In the roar, his skull made a "crackling" explosion, even the helmet of crystal armor could not stop the distortion of his head, and his head became bigger and bigger, releasing the spirit of volcanic eruption.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch!"
When the brain expanded to twice the original, even the helmet of crystal armor was burst, the soldier finally went mad and attacked his companions.
His companions seemed to be accustomed to such a mutation. Everyone opened fire without blinking an eye. Hundreds of crystal magnetic cannons and Xuanguang cannons fired at the same time, which made the crazy soldier full of holes. Even his brain burst completely after the "wave".
"PATA!"
The corpse fell to the ground like mud, and immediately a psionic puppet came forward to clean up the mess.
The rest of the soldiers' eyes twinkled with fanatical flame, did not put this little episode in mind, and continued their work.
Li Linghai, the queen of the Empire, keeps her hair as white as snow. She floats at the top of the underground space and looks at it coldly.
"Another crazy one."
She said indifferently, with no emotion in her voice.
"For the rise of the new empire, for the future of human civilization, such sacrifice is necessary."
Deep in the brain, the voice of Wu Yingqi, the black star emperor, sounded.
"Even if"
Li Linghai was silent for a long time, and finally said, "even if we have to sacrifice the extreme heaven, the extreme star, all the people in the whole imperial capital, is such sacrifice necessary?"
"Of course."
Wu Yingqi said lightly, "the birth of the new empire is a miracle of nirvana of the Phoenix. If the old world is not completely destroyed, how can a new future come?"
Li Linghai wants to talk but stops. The cold mask carefully carved on his face cracks and inadvertently reveals a trace of real emotion.
"Why, are you still thinking about your son?"
Wu Yingqi immediately grasped her subtle emotional changes and sneered, "the battle of the seven seas will start in three hours. Let him accompany Li Yaoxian in the seven seas star field and play childish games with the people of the four families. What we should pay more attention to is how the human civilization after tens of millions of years gathers the ambition, courage and strength of all mankind, Break through this narrow, oppressive and depressed universe, isn't it? "
Li Linghai trembled and nodded involuntarily: "yes, your majesty."
"For hundreds of millions of years, countless civilizations have been trapped in this small universe, not only Pangu and Nuwa civilizations, but also countless ancient civilizations more powerful than Pangu and Nuwa."
Wu Yingqi, the black star emperor, sighed, "but no matter how powerful it is, as long as it can't break out of this small universe, it is always restricted by poor resources and can't escape the control of the periodic law of the rise and fall of civilization. It is born in splendor and dies in silence.
"Our human civilization is still in its infancy. Compared with Pangu, Nuwa and even countless ancient civilizations, it is certainly quite weak. But just because we are just born, there are infinite possibilities ahead. From the beginning, we should not follow the old road of Pangu, Nuwa and other ancient civilizations, even if there is only one chance in a billion, We should all summon up all the courage, not afraid of any sacrifice, to rush out of this damned universe!
"Even if it is to be destroyed, we should also be destroyed in the wider universe, instead of dying quietly in this dry well!
"This is the biggest reason why I am determined to build a new empire. For the sake of such a new empire, for such a human civilization, for the sake of breaking through the unprecedented situation, and for the sake of exploring the outer regions where Pangu and Nuwa have not even arrived, what is a mere Imperial capital?
"To tell you the truth, there is no future for human civilization to continue to develop in this way. For our most grand plan, even if half of all human beings are sacrificed, no, even if nine tenths or even 99% of human beings are sacrificed, as long as 1% of the strongest can survive, rush out and evolve into a new form that is tens of thousands of times stronger than it is now, It's like the form of "gods and demons" in the legend. Then, it's very lucky for the whole civilization! "
Wu Yingqi's crazy roar made Li Linghai's breathing very difficult.
"I see, sire."
The empress of the Empire hesitated to ask any more for fear that she would be lost in Wu Yingqi's wild and deep soul.
She took a deep look at the pyramid, which was shining with demonic light, and said, "everything is for human civilization, but at your Majesty's command."
……
It's five minutes to the war.
Seven seas star field, deep in the seven seas market, in Jin YuYan's remote command center, a three-dimensional light curtain has been slowly unfolded, showing the whole hologram of seven seas star field to everyone, including Li Yao.
On the hologram, all the dots are the current positions of the fleets belonging to the Wanjie business alliance, as well as the coordinates of the semi fixed star battle fort on the synchronous orbit of each star, including the distribution of the cosmic mines filling each channel.
Dense spots of light, as if in the starry sky, and shrouded in a new layer of starry sky.
Even though Wanjie business alliance has made all the preparations it can do, even though they have defeated the assassination plot of the four families and made the internal unity unprecedented, and even though the arrival of "black wind king Li Yao" made the morale soar to the limit, the suffocating tranquility in the last few minutes before the war still tugged at their nerves and made everyone in the command center pale and their heart beat faster, Eyes and sweat seem to be fixed.
……
It's three minutes to the war.
In the purple cloud world, on the avalanche, the general flagship of the "one million United Fleet", a huge three-dimensional light curtain also floats in front of the cloud and snow wind, projecting to him the assembly status of hundreds of fleets in the world. The light of the psionic shield of countless star ships at the same time converges into a sea of countless suns, which almost blinds him.
Yun Xuefeng grins, slowly draws out the golden command knife and raises it high.
Although this is a meaningless symbolic action, Yun Xuefeng is willing to do it before each war. The commanding knife is tightly held in the palm of his hand, which makes him feel that he and the million star warship are integrated and full of infinite power.
"All sub fleet commanders, take orders and start jumping!"
Cloud snow wind will command the knife heavily down a split, word by word.
instant!
"Shua Shua Shua!"
Countless light screens seem to be involved in a huge whirlpool, the picture is blurred and distorted, and the starships in the picture gradually become translucent, and continue to stretch, extend and spread out!
The stars in the sky are dragged by the "solar catapult" into a bunch of spiral light, and the light is intertwined, tearing the space and becoming a tunnel to the different world. The star ships move slowly towards the "star tunnel", just like "falling" into the non-existent wormhole, and soon disappear.
Hundreds of thousands of starships staged the "beach landing, blind jump attack" at the same time!
……
"Ah, ah, ah, ah!"
As the command center of the seven seas market, the holographic star map immediately shows the reaction, just like a pond with light rain. Circles of black ripples continue to emerge and expand. At first, there are only a few small raindrops, but soon it turns into a rainstorm, and the whole star area is occupied by the ripples of the shock wave.
"This, so many space cracks torn by force!"
"It's everywhere. There are ripples in all the channels, all the spaces and all the planets. How many starships are jumping over at the same time?"
"Four big families, really ready to work hard?"
