Chapter 1123

It feels the same as last time.

The whole body of consciousness is like falling into an endless abyss, falling towards the borderless edge in a world without feeling gravity.

Perhaps because of the huge amount of information, this time "waiting for loading" took a little longer.

When the patience of the land boat was almost exhausted, a light spot of the size of rice grain finally appeared in the dark abyss.

Quietly waiting for it to get close to itself, waiting for the light point to gradually enlarge.

Then, a huge force of gravity came from the light source and pulled him in.

The glittering light came, and subconsciously closed his eyes.

And when his eyes opened again, the boundless darkness had faded from his vision and replaced by an empty and strange space.

The five senses return, and the feet touch the ground, but the feeling of gravity is rather thin.

Looking around, according to the intuition at the first sight, the ship's cabin here is probably the cabin of a certain spaceship, which is just a dark starry sky embedded outside the porthole on the wall.

In addition to standing here, there are twenty-five "people" who dress the same as themselves and even have the same height.

Judging from their temperament, they should be soldiers.

The streamlined exoskeleton armor exudes the spirit of killing. The angular stick hanging on the chest should be something like a rifle.

Somehow, Lu Zhou suddenly remembered the game he designed in virtual reality to test the performance of the system some time ago.

When he thought about it, there was a strange expression on his face.

I don't think it's a mistake?

"Xiaoai......"

A soft call, no response.

The boat frowned, and a sense of discomfort rose in her heart.

Did not the virtual reality device start successfully?

Or is the dream not syncing?

Or Synchronization is synchronization, but because the neuromodem he created is too simple, and its stimulation intensity is weaker than the "system" which is superior to the level of human civilization and technology, his simple devices can not interfere with dreams at all.

To be honest, I just can't cheat here.

Thinking of this, the eyebrows of Lu Zhou become deeper and deeper.

For this plan, he had been preparing for a while, but he didn't expect to start at a disadvantage.

“…… We can only go one step at a time. "

In my mind, the land boat began to observe the surrounding environment carefully, especially the soldiers armed to the teeth.

Because of the mask's cover, the boat can't see these people's faces clearly. It's not even sure whether they are "people", let alone what language they use.

However, at this time, the voice in the communication channel in his ear dispelled his concerns.

The language in this "memory" has been translated into Mandarin which he can understand by simultaneous interpretation.

"Here we are."

Almost at the moment of voice falling, the ship's hull vibrated slightly when it was caught by the gravitational field.

It seems that after a century of darkness, there is a light outside the porthole.

Then, the land boat saw the most spectacular and shocking scene in its life.

It's not Zhiyuan.

But --

"welcome to the center of the Empire, this is the capital Probably the most prosperous part of the constellation. After all, until now, there is no evidence that aliens have visited us. "

It was said in a joking tone, and the atmosphere in the cabin was a little relaxed.

It's just a pity that Lu Zhou didn't get a laugh.

Although this joke is not funny, the real reason is that at this moment, his eyes have been completely taken away by the world outside the window.

It's a huge metal ring. You can't see the end of it at a glance. You can only see the star in the center surrounded by it. Countless spacecraft shuttle around it, witnessing its prosperity.

The civilization that created this ring emptied all the planets in this star system, and used this material to build this ring world along the livable zone, and to live and multiply on it.

It's hard to imagine how powerful they are in charge of all this.

At least, in terms of technology, they have gone far beyond what human civilization can imagine.

“…… It's unbelievable. "

It seems to be that he was the only one who could hear the soft murmur, or that he was the only one whose sight was completely stuck on the porthole, and a slightly ironic chuckle came from the communication channel.

Unlike the previous voice, it seems to have come from a private communication channel."Everyone who comes to the capital for the first time will have a similar exclamation. I've seen too many Hicks from the border planet, even knocking their chin on the window. Where do you come from? Industrial planet? Or agricultural planet? Don't tell me it's a mining station. "

Lu Zhou opened his mouth and didn't speak.

Because he didn't know how to answer this question at all, and didn't expect that the memory fragments of this time had such a sense of "fireworks" and participation. These NPCs were like living people, and he didn't enter the world as a spectator, but participated in the "plot" as a soldier

It seems that he lost interest in the dull "country bumpkin". The soldier standing next to him soon gave up his sight and stopped paying attention to him.

Just then, the hatch in front of them suddenly opened, and a tall and burly soldier, also wearing exoskeleton, stood in front of them.

At the same time, the previous mention of their "arrival" sounded again in the communication channel.

"Nice to meet you. I'd like to introduce myself to you. I'm your commander, Sains, from the c-12-27 section defense station in the capital."

"Just a month ago, the security department received news that Professor Ryan of the c-12-01 section Institute was persecuted by unidentified terrorist organizations, and his life is now in danger because of a physics experiment related to the secrets of the Empire."

"As a soldier, it's our duty and duty to protect the order of the Empire. If someone tries to play with fire under our eyes, we'll put out the fire! Our task is to escort Professor Ryan from his hiding place to the imperial Council hall, and to eliminate potential attackers. "

"The information that can be disclosed has been uploaded to your mission briefing. From now on, you are under my command."

"Go!"

With orderly steps and sonorous and powerful response, a group of people stepped out of the cabin in an orderly manner.

As he walked in line with the officer named Sains, the boat opened the mission briefing through the helmet's ar interface.

Very little information can be disclosed.

In short, a physicist named Ryan discovered an amazing secret in a physical experiment, which may affect the future of the Empire for a hundred years - even longer than a hundred years.

The code name of the secret is called "oracle". Just looking at the name, you can't guess what it is.

As for Professor Ryan, who had enough influence on the future of the Empire, he was naturally summoned by the parliament, hoping that he could go to the imperial chamber to elaborate his findings and debate his ideas.

Although it is an empire, the system here is quite liberal.

It's a pity that this kind of openness is only reflected on the surface, and there is still a turbulent undercurrent flowing behind. Some people, for some reason, don't seem to want Professor Ryan to get there, or to convey the "oracle" to the imperial political center.

Professor Ryan?

Who is he?

What is the "oracle"?

And, what exactly is his physics experiment?

In my heart, I silently wrote down the name and the scattered clues. Lu Zhou thoughtfully turned off the mission briefing.

Intuition told him.

That physicist, Ryan, should be the key to this memory.

If he wants to collect the information that this memory wants to convey to him, he must contact Professor Ryan to find out what the "oracle" is.

Fortunately, his role now is to send the VIP bodyguard to each other.

Not surprisingly, he should be able to meet the professor, not sure if he can have a chat with him, or exchange academic problems.

Of course, for the latter, in fact, there is no great hope for the land boat. The probability that the system can let him drill this kind of hole is too low.

If this memory does not contain the obscure physical theories, even if talking all night, he may not be able to draw out the secret of surpassing the speed of light from the professor Ryan's mouth, or the physical knowledge only mastered by advanced civilization.

The spacecraft docked at Starport.

Through a long narrow corridor, the soldiers boarded a train like elevator.

People around cast awe at them and kept a certain distance from them.

The boat looked around uneasily, and finally saw what the residents, including himself, looked like.

Generally speaking, there are many similarities between the appearance of these residents and that of human beings. They have two arms and two legs, even five fingers. The only difference is the blue skin and slightly narrow facial features.

Curious about this magical similarity, however, when Lu zhouzheng was ready to study it carefully, the elevator at his feet had stopped."Here we are."

A brief order prompted him to keep up with the team. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, the boat didn't stop in the elevator. It left here with the team and came to an open and magnificent building.

No accident, this should be the world on the surface, or the world on the ring.

The atmosphere here is quite lively. People come and go through the hall, or get on the "elevator" to the space station through the security entrance, or stand beside a long and narrow assembly line waiting for their luggage.

Through the glass window on one side of the corridor, the land boat saw the world outside the building.

Like a maze of complex buildings, stretching to the end of the horizon, the constant flow of vehicles in the air, so fast that they can not help but some people worry about whether they will hit.

In addition, what really interests the land boat is its architecture.

Perhaps it is to cater to the "efficiency first" aesthetics of this civilization. In addition to a small amount of decoration on the surface, most of the buildings here are square in outline.

Compared with the houses built with bricks on the earth, they are more like "standardized modules" produced from the assembly line of the factory. They are stacked according to a specific mode, just like blocks spliced together, one by one, to the present height.

This may sound strange, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to make a big fuss.

After all, the whole world is a huge man-made building. All the buildings located in this ring world can be regarded as the expansion space cabin on the space station in an abstract way.

If we still use that kind of primitive architecture, it will make people feel incredible.

After passing through the security channel, the land boat has a more intuitive sense of how large the population of the empire is.

It would take a lot of time just to get out of the traffic building if the people nearby didn't take the initiative to avoid it.

Through the panoramic screen hung in the hall, the land boat also got an unexpected news - that is, this kind of elevator similar to Babel Tower has 1-2 elevators in each section of the whole circular world. The "ring" and the space station commute through elevators, while the zones and zones, as well as the segments and segments commute, rely on vacuum tube trains located in the center of the ring.

Although it's just a few unimportant knowledge, it also gives the land boat a deeper understanding of the development of this civilization.

Here, all the problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation seem to have been solved perfectly.

People don't need special efforts, as long as they get on the ring, they can live a good life.

The capital.

It's like a utopia

Although interested in this form of civilization, it is a pity that he has a mission now, and Mr. Sains has not given them any time for sightseeing at all.

After leaving the traffic building, they got on the flying car parked at the door and integrated into the flow of traffic. After about half an hour's sailing, they soon arrived at their destination.

Seven painted black flying cars with imperial insignia stopped at a parking space in front of a four-way building.

Following the action of the nearby soldiers, he got out of the car together. At that time, the boat noticed that a thin man in a white coat, looking a little flustered, walked out of the open metal door with a small leather bag.

"I'm being watched. I feel someone following me!"

When he saw Mr. Sains, the scholar trotted to him and told him the panic in his heart with fear.

The burly soldier listened quietly to what he said, and then soothed him with a gentle voice.

"Don't worry, Professor Ryan. Now that you are under the protection of the Imperial Army, we will escort you safely to the imperial chamber."

Perhaps because of the military's lofty position in the Empire, this consolation seemed to play a role. Professor Ryan's expression eased a little, took a deep breath, and soon calmed himself down.

“…… Let's go. It's late. "

"All right," said Mr. Sains, nodding his head, gesturing with his eyes to the flying car in the middle of the line. "Please get in."

VIP successfully recovered, and a group of people went on the road again.

Lu Zhou wants to sit in a car with Professor Ryan very much, but unfortunately, his car is located at the back of the queue.

Although a little anxious, but at this time in addition to the patience of waiting there is no better way.

If you make some unnatural actions at this time, and are suspected of plotting against your will, it will be more difficult to contact Professor Ryan.

Seven speeding cars slowly lifted off and returned to the track of high-speed operation.

All the way to peace, bored boat, can only look out of the window scenery to kill time.

However, at this time, the abnormal change suddenly happened. Suddenly, there was a violent explosion in the rear, and a dark red fire reflected on the rear-view mirror.The heart of the boat suddenly tightened, and the rifle hung on its chest was subconsciously clenched. Almost at the same time, the voice came from the communication channel.

"Vehicle 7 was attacked with 95% damage, and people on board were killed."

"Team a goes on, team B goes down and hits the ground."

"Received."

It's like telling a common thing. The voice from the communication channel is so calm that it makes people feel numb.

I don't know if it is the unique culture of this civilization, or whether they have unlocked the philosophy of transcendental life and death. They don't show any anger towards the death of their comrades in arms, or even a little mood fluctuation.

However, it is this kind of calm in danger that endows them with strong fighting ability.

Almost immediately after the attack, all combat units reacted as quickly as gears on a spring.

Blue ballistics are flying all over the sky, weaving a fire net in the air, biting at the fragile chassis engine of the vehicle behind.

Under the threat of firepower suppression, the rear pursuit vehicles were forced to descend with the moving vehicles of the land boat, landing on the open metal ground.

"Ready to fight!"

Under the guidance of the officer, the well-trained soldiers rushed out of the car, took the vehicle beside them as a shelter, put up their rifles and began to fight back at the attackers.

Although he didn't really want to fight, in order not to be seen by others, Lu Zhou also tried his best.

Learn from other people's actions to open the insurance, desperately remember the skills that Dr. Yan taught him when he was in the training base. With the safest shooting posture, he stuck the muzzle of the gun out of the bunker and pulled the trigger to provide suppression fire for his teammates around.

As for those who can't fight, it doesn't matter at all.

It's good to shoot at a fixed target. In such a complex battlefield environment, he has no combat experience, and there is no accurate way to shoot.

The blue ballistics almost filled the whole area of the exchange of fire, leaving craters on the ground and the surrounding walls. However, surprisingly, the vehicles used as the bunkers remained in good shape.

It's like a special force field covering the surface of the car's shell, dissolving the rays that contain terrorist energy.

The muzzle of the gun made a bared overheat.

A magazine quickly hit the empty boat and hurriedly learned the movements of other soldiers.

However, at this time, he suddenly caught a glimpse with his spare light, the empty battery that was dragging the hot white smoke and popping out of the barrel.

Pupil slightly contract, a kind of familiar sense of sight, suddenly climbed the heart of the boat.

This battery

Has he met anywhere?
