Seeing that the bearded assistant technician was safe and sound, we all heaved a sigh of relief. After all, the safety of the engineering team was what we were most concerned about when we jumped down from the ship. After jumping down, Icetis had reprimanded me more than once for my hot-bloodedness as a leader. She had also reprimanded Sandora for turning from a calm and strict queen into a hot-blooded girl who would follow her husband. However, the female rogue looked happy. She patted the bearded man's shoulder and said, "It's good that you are alive. You are so awesome. For the sake of you troublemakers, the two leaders of the Empire jumped into the gate of the abyss!"
The bearded man's expression was very complicated. It was so complicated that I couldn't tell what he was trying to express. Basically, there were at least twenty different expressions on his face. Especially after being provoked by Icetis, the bearded man looked like he was about to commit suicide on the spot. "Your Majesty, I acted on my own accord and put the head of the Empire in danger …"
"Alright, alright. I have goosebumps …" I quickly waved my hand. I had seen the elegance of the so-called 'frontline scientist' before. At this moment, he had changed his profession and taken the emotional route. Unfortunately, with my personality, I couldn't take it. "How is the situation of the engineering ship … Alright, tell us everything that happened down there. You suddenly ended the communication. What happened? What happened to the fallen apostle spaceship? Did it destroy the gate of the abyss? "
"We destroyed the gate," the bearded man said shockingly. He looked proud when he said it.
"You … destroyed the gate?" I couldn't wrap my head around it. "You have to explain yourself!"
The bearded man brought us to the control center of the engineering ship. There were obvious signs of chaos. Many large data terminals had stopped working. There were cracks left by small-scale explosions on the crystal panel. The flashing warning lights hadn't completely calmed down. Based on my shallow knowledge of the starship, the main warning signals on the holographic projection were the fatal malfunctions of the ship's power, navigation and communication systems. This was something to be happy about. At least the ship's defense system wasn't in a bad state. Although the power of the shield wasn't enough, it could at least block the corrosion of the abyss. It wouldn't let the engineering ship end up like the black fallen apostle spaceship.
In the hexagonal control center, the ground near one side had been lifted up by the repair crew, revealing the main pipe that was flashing with sparks of energy. Several autonomous robots were nimbly drilling in the intertwined mechanical device, like spiders weaving a web. According to the bearded man, the crew was doing their best to repair the ship's power core. The ship would need at least ten minutes to start up again. Sandora had already gotten in touch with her sister. The gate of the abyss on the other side of the world had been completely suppressed by Shallow Shallow. It wouldn't be a problem to delay it for another half an hour. So, it looked like we still had enough time to listen to the bearded man talk about what they had encountered in the abyss.
"This is the Fallen Apostle's Abyss Sentinel. I'm not a strategic analyst, but this is definitely a very, very bad situation." Big Beardy pointed at the holographic projection in front of the captain's seat. The projection showed the black shrouded spaceship that we "captured" (Icetis could be proud of). However, behind this spaceship, there were two figures of the same size but different shapes. It seemed to be a small-scale patrol team. "The ship that you see is one of them. We've encountered a total of three such Sentinel spaceships. One has a strange weapon, one looks like a spaceship with auxiliary functions, and this one looks like a research or engineering ship. The Fallen Apostle must have mass-produced these things, wandering around the shallow layer of the abyss like assassins in the dark. If it wasn't for us salvaging the database today, and these Sentinels just happened to discover this gate for the first time, I'm afraid we wouldn't have noticed them until they caused a huge mess. When we guided the first database to surface, these specter-like things suddenly wandered over from the shallow layer of the abyss. However, we had a little bit of initiative. The Empire engineering ship that you're on is equipped with the most advanced Abyss Multispectral Radar designed by our chief technician. It was specially designed to find inconspicuous targets in the abyss. When the three ships of the Fallen Apostle appeared in our line of sight, they were still blind. However, this time difference was very short. I didn't dare to confirm when they would discover this gate and summon the entire army over. Thus, we shut down all communications to prevent the enemy from eavesdropping. We sent the database out in an extremely silent environment. The database actually contained our report, and then … "
"And then you tried to close the Abyss Gate and even thought of a way to get rid of two enemy ships." Sandora smiled. "Outstanding soldiers of the Empire should be like this. Although your decision was still a bit rash, the situation that you predicted could have indeed happened. You did indeed seal off the route that the enemy could attack the Empire. However, I want to know how you did it. "
"Chief Technician Tawil conducted long-term research on the stability mechanism of the Abyss Gate. I was fortunate enough to be selected by her to join one of the long-term research teams. We compared the confidential information shared by the Protoss and found that if we operated on the side of the abyss, it was actually quite easy to make an Abyss Gate collapse. We only needed to do a rapid information shock at a key location, and the information from the main material world would leak into the abyss. This dangerous technology would cause the gate on one side of the abyss to collapse, and the gate on the main material world to explode outwards. However, I believe that the people outside would have the ability to evacuate in time and destroy the gate or the experimental site. "
Big Beardy seemed to be more thoughtful than the technical maniac Tawil. He probably knew that the Emperor in front of him was semi-illiterate, so he directly explained how he did it. He did not explain why it was effective from the scientific perspective. It was conceivable that it would be a very long scientific lecture. I reckon that I wouldn't be able to finish it before I fell asleep …
If the Fallen Apostle had the ability to use the Abyss Gate as a springboard to attack the mainland of the Empire, then Big Beardy could be said to have saved many lives. However, I still did not understand. "The engineering ship was not armed. How did you get rid of two enemy ships and come out unscathed?"
"It wasn't unscathed. As you can see, we were also attacked. Although it wasn't serious," Big Beardy's face bloomed with a proud smile. "This was a sturdy ship, and its defense was comparable to the main battleship. The enemy's sentinels seemed to be unmanned patrol or exploration ships. They shouldn't be regarded as battleships at all. They even had a ship that was an auxiliary communication platform with almost no defense. I had participated in the design of a general equipment modification device and carried a batch of experimental model parts with me. First, we used the probe launcher of the engineering ship as a floating bomb ejection platform. After that, we modified two 'floating bottles' that were originally intended to be discarded. As you know, two of the databases that we salvaged were severely damaged. However, the shield device and the container were still barely usable. Using some other things, we created two extra-large camouflage mines and stuffed them into the ejection platform. You should know that the heavily corroded database looked like the wreckage of a spaceship after an explosion. So, when the enemy saw our engineering ship, they mistakenly thought that the debris floating around was the wreckage of the escape tower of the engineering ship. However, there were actually two big guys mixed in there. They launched an attack on the engineering ship and almost pierced through one of the shields. It was really dangerous at that time. Our energy core was damaged, but Kerviel still patiently allowed the camouflage mines to slowly approach the target. After that, we got rid of two of the ships, and the last one was really helpless. However, just as we were about to ram into it, you appeared … "
I was dumbfounded as I listened. From the bottom of my heart, I understood what it meant to be a 'frontline scientist'. Tawil's definition was still a little conservative. This was a magical creature that could randomly pick up scraps on the battlefield and assemble a large amount of explosives to throw at people's faces! The situation at that time was definitely not as easy as Big Beardy had described. Using the wreckage of the Deep Submersible Ship's database as a shell, he could create a bomb that could destroy the Fallen Apostle's spaceship? Alright, I knew that the database came with its own navigation system and thrusters. As long as the core equipment was replaced, it could be used as a missile. However, the most important thing was the explosive power. Yes, I had every reason to believe that Big Beardy had stuffed his dimensional pocket with powerful explosives and advanced weapon components. He was just waiting to pick up scraps on the battlefield to assemble a ton of bombs. Of course, he called those explosives' experimental model parts'.
…
At that moment, the power core of the engineering ship was finally rebooted. The command center rang with the sounds of various equipment being activated. A relaxed atmosphere finally filled the air. Only when the ship was operational again would the people here be truly out of danger. We established contact with my sister, who was anxiously waiting on the other side of the Gate of the Abyss. We knew that the situation on the other side was still optimistic. All personnel had been evacuated. The obelisks around the Gate of the Abyss were all destroyed. However, Shallow Shallow was using her own power to solidify the entire gate. In the mutated time vortex, even the power of the Abyss could not move forward. Shallow Shallow was right. She was no longer what she used to be. She was so powerful that she could single-handedly suppress an entire Gate of the Abyss!
As a matter of fact, her, her elder sister, and Lin Xue's powers were still growing at an astonishing rate. No one knew when this growth would come to an end. Currently, they still had human bodies. However, Icetis guessed that their souls had completely mutated. Just like the Dark Goddess and the others who were by God Father's side, they had ascended from mortals to Gods. Perhaps they would only stop growing until that day.
"If we pass through the gate now, the Gate of the Abyss will immediately collapse. Shallow Shallow won't be able to suppress it." I communicated with my sister through our mental link. "You guys should retreat. Let Avalon open a gate that leads to the Void above the Gate of the Abyss. After we rush out of the Gate of the Abyss, we will directly rush into the Void. Finally, we will make a detour back to the Star Harbor. After that, you guys will immediately let Avalon be banished to this universe. This is very compatible with the postgraduate entrance exam. The sooner, the better. "
My sister paused for a moment before replying with a smile, "Shallow Shallow said that she believes in the tacit understanding between herself and her man. We will wait for your signal. Once you guys depart, Shallow Shallow and I will immediately lead the last few personnel to teleport back to the City of Shadows. "
"Alright, then … Three, two, one. Depart!"
The engineering ship's mainframe immediately responded. "The ship's power furnace is at full power. Accelerating to maximum speed. Our target is the Gate of the Abyss. Engine room, prepare for impact … "
In an instant, the engineering ship accelerated to sub-light speed. Then, it steadily passed through the gate of the abyss. I saw the blazing flames of the red giant flash past in the external projection. The frenzied plasma storm seemed to want to pull the engineering ship down from the sky and make it stay in this world that was about to be exiled forever. However, this scene was instantly replaced by darkness. The engineering ship entered the Void Travel mode. We completed the charge in three seconds.
"The experimental site has been banished, but the Avalon system is still pointing to that universe." My sister's relieved voice came through the mental link. "Tawil said that he wanted to follow and observe the process of the universe's destruction. We really had no choice. It's good to know that you guys completed the mission safely. Come back quickly. "
The engineering ship returned to the Shadow Space's spaceport safely. However, as we had just completed the mission in the Abyss, it needed to be purified from start to finish. In fact, I had used my own Void Territory to envelop the ship and directly docked it within the psionic barrier of the spaceport. Because of this, Bryndis teased me along the way. She felt that my abilities as a Void Creature were just too rich and colorful. At critical moments, I could even be used as a delivery package. When we docked at the port, I even wanted the guide to stamp a stamp on the armor of the engineering ship and write "The goods have been signed". She felt that that was like giving my face an autograph …
Sandora's explanation was that a certain unreliable person had once again ushered in her irregular period of excitement. She suggested that we tie Icetis up and throw her into the isolation room for observation for tens of thousands of years. I have to say that the two of them were really good friends for ten thousand years …
All the crew members of the First Engineering Team had to undergo purification, especially the three of us who had directly soaked in the Abyss Gate for half a day. However, it was the easiest for me to purify myself. As long as I switched to the Void in a clean environment, anything related to the Abyss on my body would be removed. I would feel refreshed and rejuvenated. The so-called rebirth was probably just like that. The principle was the same, but my method was much simpler. Icetis's ridicule was very accurate. "Others would have to cultivate for at least half a lifetime to be reborn. If you want to be reborn, you just have to throw away your face …"
I thought to myself, It's not like I want to have a faceless Void image. If you have the ability to ridicule King Huron, go ahead and ridicule King Huron. After King Huron turned into the Void form, his body was covered in mosaics …
Sandora saw that I completed the self-purification so easily and felt very envious. She rubbed against me and said, "Ah Jun, can you help me purify? A part of me is in the Abyss. After being exposed to high doses of psionic energy, I always feel very uncomfortable. "
I thought for a while and looked around to make sure there was no one around. Then, as Sandora gasped in surprise, I pulled her into my arms. The young girl's body was soft and warm. She was stunned for a moment and quickly retracted her claws. Sandora was surprised at first, but she soon nestled comfortably in her lover's arms. She looked up at me with a smile and said, "Ah Jun, kiss me …"
Me: "…"
Sandora: "… Err, you don't have a mouth right now …"
This was definitely the most painful situation in the world: A lover asking for a kiss only to find out that he didn't have a mouth. In essence, it was equivalent to Yang Guo wanting to hug Xiao Longnu and finding out that he didn't have enough equipment. I suddenly felt that the most urgent thing in my current Void form was to create a mouth. Of course, if possible, I would also need a nose. Shallow Shallow liked to pinch my nose and play with it. Oh, so did Little Bubble. I hugged Sandora and carefully enveloped her in my Void Halo. I asked softly, "Hey, don't you think it's weird to see me like this? The last time I saw the Mercury Lamp, she was almost scared to death. "After that, the girl wouldn't let me hug her to sleep for a whole week.
Sandora snorted and said, "Do you think my claws are weird?"
I thought about it for a moment and decided that we had a slightly maverick sense of aesthetics living together as an eccentric family.
"Hey, hey, hey. You two should be more or less the same." Icetis's voice interrupted us. "Don't show off your love too much. You can even nibble on each other when you're purifying yourself. Oh, I didn't nibble on you. Chen doesn't have a mouth in this form. "
Sandora struggled out of my embrace awkwardly and looked at Icetis maliciously. "You're done purifying yourself? I remember that you were the most polluted one. You turned into a big ball and swallowed the entire ship … "
Icetis' face instantly twisted. She pointed at Sandora and said angrily, "You're so heartless when you're with the opposite sex! Why don't you say that I was the one who saved the last bit of the wreckage! " Then, she waved her hand and said to me, "I purified myself. I don't need to bathe like those soldiers. Did you forget? I am a high-level God. When I need to purify myself, I only need to turn into a ball of pure light … "
Then, I suddenly remembered and asked curiously, "Hey, you are a Dark Protoss, right? How did you turn into a ball of holy light? Also, with your personality, what does it have to do with holiness? How could you turn into such a radiant form? Why do I feel that this doesn't make sense from the perspective of moral conservation? "
Icetis swung a roundhouse kick at me but was stopped by Sandora. She clenched her teeth and said, "I am a moving moral standard! Did you know that I just gave an order to my priest two days ago? In the future, when my believers pray, they must start with 'f * ck' and end with 'f * ck'. This is the privilege of a God … "
I thought for a while and said, "They're praying to you, right? How many times do you get scolded? "
Icetis was stunned. She turned and ran. "F * ck! Hurry up and change the Bible! "
Sandora and I were speechless.
