"The Merovans may have committed treason," Sandora repeated when she saw that we were all in a daze.
I couldn't keep up with Sandora's pace for a while, so I scratched my head. "What's with this conclusion?"
"Do you still remember the time in the Kingdom of Dragons? Silver Dragon Char once told us about the gods of their world in the historical records of the dragons, "Sandora reminded everyone." The god that Silver Dragon Char mentioned was the Imperial Army of the 15th Heaven. Because the Empire created their group of dragons, they regarded the Shiring Apostles as the creator god, and the servants of the 15th Heaven were regarded by the dragons as the servants of God. According to the historical records of the dragons, after the catastrophe, the Divine King personally led the army and the divine servants followed him. After a hundred years, the Divine King did not return, but the divine servants returned alone and looted the ruins of the empire near the Forgotten Garden. This period of history was affected by the concept fragmentation effect, so we always thought that it had been distorted. At that time, the servant army that returned midway might have returned to the mother planet under the orders of the Shiring Apostles to take something. But not long ago, Alleria counted the remaining facilities of the Empire in the cities of Heaven and found that some facilities that were theoretically safe had disappeared. Since then, I paid some attention to the legend of the dragon guardian. But now … you can see the Empire emblem on their spaceship. "
"Even if it's not treason, their current behavior is strange," the big sister said slowly. "Removing the emblem of the old master and remaking the army emblem is not a trivial matter. It doesn't seem like a normal army to attack the Fifth Fleet for no reason … By the way, Commander Cocokina, how did the conflict break out between you and these attackers? "
"Conflict broke out? We still don't know why we were attacked! " The light on Cocokina's body suddenly became very bright, and his three eyes flickered rapidly, indicating that he was really in a very Spartan mood. "We settled down in a remote place and ran our new home for two hundred years. We never communicated with the outside world because we didn't know if the monsters were still chasing us. We even erased all traces of us in the void after we found the docking place. We kept a low profile, but who knows why we were suddenly attacked. They suddenly rushed into our universe, and they were outnumbered and well-equipped. They rushed straight to the capital and bombarded all our planets along the way. They had no intention of communicating at all. It seemed that their only purpose was to completely destroy us. If it wasn't for the Fifth Fleet's crisis response ability developed through years of escape, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to retreat when faced with the attackers that were more than twice our strength. This is really a senseless attack. You said that the Imperial Army known as the Fallen Apostles were infected by the Abyss and attacked all targets indiscriminately, but I didn't see any traces of the Abyss on those attackers. "
"In other words, no one knows why the Merovans suddenly attacked … The trail is broken again." The elder sister sighed. "I feel that the actions of those guys are really strange. They suddenly smuggled away a large number of Empire facilities tens of thousands of years ago, and now they are attacking the Fifth Fleet for no reason at all. What's the connection between the two?"
"Anyway, I have a bad feeling. It makes me very … uncomfortable." Xiaoxue looked at us and stuck out her tongue. "What the Merovans do is unpleasant. Maybe my mother can see it more clearly."
"We'll talk about this after the Fifth Fleet arrives safely." Sandora suddenly interrupted everyone's conversation about the Merovans. She glanced at me, intentionally or unintentionally, and then looked at the communicator. "Cocokina, maybe I've found a way for you to quickly cross this part of the voyage. But it might be a little risky."
"Could there be a greater danger than the one we're facing now?" The light on Cocokina's body dimmed. "Damn it … One of the early-warning probes has lost its signal. The enemy is shrinking their encirclement, and there are enemies everywhere in this quadrant!"
"Alright, then I'll tell you about my method — let the Void bring you over!" Sandora no longer hesitated and patted my shoulder. "The speed limit of the Void Engine is because it can't greatly adjust its own information deviation. Once the deviation is too large, it will be corroded by the surrounding Void and cause its own information structure to collapse. But if you can be placed in a mild Void environment where the Void environment no longer interferes with the Order Field of your starships … you can remove the safety lock on the Void Engine and allow it to cross a theoretically infinite 'distance' in one go."
I touched the spot where Shadora had patted my arm. I had a vague feeling that I was going to be sold.
"You're joking, right?" Cocokina had no idea what Sandora was talking about. He only felt that he had heard a fantasy story. "Do you think that you can make the Void listen to your commands? I admit that you Shiring Apostles have great power, but I don't think that you can command the Void, not to mention that you can make it willingly tolerate the appearance of such a crack in its body. Your arrogance really shocks me. "
Sandora shrugged and suddenly pinched me. She said through the spiritual connection, "Ah Jun, buy me fried chicken tomorrow."
I replied, "… Oh, but why did you suddenly think of eating fried chicken?"
Sandora secretly stuck her tongue out at me when no one was paying attention. "I want to experience the feeling of commanding the Void …"
I was speechless. So that's what's going on! Sandora, you've learned bad things. Who did you learn to be so bad from?
I thought about it and came to a sad conclusion. Maybe it's from me …
Sandora would occasionally do weird things like this, but it was mostly due to my presence that she couldn't control herself. Speaking of which, let's not talk about the weird logic behind it. In short, Cocokina was confused because the small actions between Sandora and me weren't obvious. He was curious as to why we suddenly became quiet. However, Sandora quickly opened her mouth to solve Cocokina's doubts. "The Old Empire at its peak didn't have the ability to command the Void, but the New Empire really has the potential to do so. This is my partner, the other leader of the Empire, a genuine Void Creature. His power is the power of the Void, his will … "
Sandora glanced at me and decided not to say too much. "Sometimes, it's the will of the Void."
I was speechless.
"Void … Creature?" Cocokina's confused voice sounded. It seemed that as an Eldar, he had never come into contact with the knowledge of Void Creatures. Perhaps, other than the two Protoss and the Xiling Empire (Should I call them the three Protoss now?) Other than that, no one could imagine that the Void could actually give birth to its own consciousness. "I've never heard of this term before. Is this your new technology?"
"It's complicated to explain. In short, you only need to know one thing. The person beside me can transform into the Void. He can also control the Void unconditionally. Of course, it is on a certain scale. If you can cooperate 100%, he can use a safe Void Domain to envelop your entire fleet. I can guarantee that you can safely overload your Void Engine to tens of thousands of times. Of course, if your cooperation fails, then you're all finished. Imagine the consequences of leaving the Order Field in the Void Domain. You'll turn into an echo and quickly dissipate to the point where even the most sensitive antenna can't receive it. I'll take care of the technical details. It just depends on whether you have the determination and courage to do so. "
"Give me some time. I need to discuss with my aide-de-camp." The light in Cocokina's eyes dimmed for a moment. However, he didn't waste time asking about the minor details. He only hung up the communication for the time being.
Sandora smiled. Before the other party hung up, she said, "As soon as possible. You also know that this isn't the time for a meeting."
"Err, Sandora, what are you planning to do?" I finally had the chance to express my doubts. "Why do I feel like you've sold me out?"
"Why would I? I wouldn't put my partner in danger." Sandora smiled as she pinched my ear, just like how I often did to her. Then, she seemed to suddenly realize that she wasn't at home. She coughed twice and regained her usual cold and dignified demeanor. "Ah Jun, to explain my plan, you need to understand a deeper level of knowledge about 'moving' in the Void … Err, don't show that expression. I'll try to explain it more directly. Speaking of which, you are also a Void creature. It should be easier for you to understand this knowledge. "
I shrugged and gestured for the Parliament, Toberu scientists, and the surrounding officers of the Fourth Fleet to go about their own business (Actually, they didn't intend to join in on the fun anyway). Then, I sat down on my seat and pretended to listen attentively.
"In the Void environment, there are no mathematical or physical coordinates/distance/displacement/direction and all related driving forces. You should be very clear about this, right?" Sandora first brought up the basic knowledge of the Void. After receiving my confirmation, she continued. "In the Void environment, the only thing that can allow an orderly object to exist safely is the Order Field. In layman's terms, it's the Void Shield. It uses various mathematical devices to rapidly simulate the information environment of an orderly world to allow the objects in the Order Field to exist safely and not be disintegrated into basic information units by the Void. In other words, the essence of the Order Field relies on a self-consistent and high-speed computing device. This computing device will be affected by any external disturbances related to information. Then, we will talk about the elements needed to 'move' in the Void. That is to modify one's own 'information representation'. By shifting one's own information representation, it is equivalent to obtaining a new 'address' in the primordial sea of information known as the Void. Using the closest analogy from Earth, it is to view the Void as an omnipresent broadcast signal. We assume that it contains all the theoretical frequencies that exist, and the Void Engine is the sensitive capacitor of the radio. This capacitor adjusts the circuit's sensing frequency so that the radio can synchronize with a certain frequency. Thus, you receive the signal. This is' moving 'in the Void environment. And every time you adjust the knob of the radio, which is to adjust the maximum range of the sensitive capacitor, is to measure the' speed 'of the Void Engine's driving force. Do you know how much the driving force of a Void Engine is in theory? "
I first confirmed that I understood everything that Sandora was talking about. Then, I understood that the driving force of the Void Engine was referring to the 'distance' it could 'advance' in the Void. Thus, I estimated and replied, "It doesn't seem to exceed one quadrant. I remember that the strongest Void Roamer that the Empire had ever created set a record by jumping from one quadrant to another in one jump. Of course, that ship became a monument after that … "
"… That experiment can be considered a dark history. And that is only the maximum jumping limit that a Void probe ship can reach. It is not the driving limit of the Void Engine. The true jumping limit of the Void Engine is actually infinite."
I was stunned. "Huh?"
"Infinite. The principle of any Void Engine is the same. It is to modify the information representation of the current Ordered Field, and by constantly adjusting the offset of information, the ship 'moves' in the Void. And if it is just by itself, the range of such modification is actually infinite. In other words, in theory, it can jump from any place in the Void to any other place. This is because 'filling in data in a form' is not a gradual process. To change one to ten thousand, you do not need to write all the numbers in sequence, only the final result. And as a device that rewrites numbers, the operation of the Void Engine is naturally not a process — I see your expression, I know what you want to say. That's right. Even if the Void Engine has such a theoretically infinite range of jumps, the most advanced ships can only move slowly when crossing quadrants, and what limits its jump speed is the previously mentioned Orderly Field. The Orderly Field simulates the mathematical environment of an orderly world, which ensures that every component of the Void ship would not be destroyed due to paradox. However, the process of modifying the information representation would place a great burden on the generator of the Orderly Field. This is because the information representation is a key data in the Orderly Field, and once that data changes, the entire Orderly Field would have to be recalculated. The greater the change in data, the greater the difference between the recalculated Orderly Field and the original Orderly Field, and the more obvious the system's delay due to its own performance. When those unfavorable factors reach a certain level, the two Orderly Fields would not be able to connect — the worldview formed by the two would clash completely, and every rule would be a paradox. In the end, the field would collapse, and the physical part of the ship would be completely exposed to the Void environment … and sooner or later, it would become a noise in the Void. "
I continued to rub my hair and pointed at my nose. "Then my role is —"
"I'm just thinking about the situation of my family." Sandora glanced at her sisters who were whispering to each other. "Due to Ah Jun's information disturbance effect, the people around you are now like Superior Protoss who can move about in the Void without any cost. This is because we have your 'mark' on us. You are the embodiment of the Void's Order, which is why the Void allows an Order like you to appear in its' body '. Of course, it also allows the existence of Order objects with your mark. If you could mark the entire Fifth Fleet …"
I came to a sudden realization. "Oh, having a military tag means that we don't have to pay the toll … That's illegal!"
Sandora finally could not take it anymore and hung onto my arm, shouting in exasperation through the spiritual link, "I'm talking about serious business! I'm talking about serious business! "
At that moment, the communication device beside us suddenly lit up again. Cocokina's head appeared on the screen. "We have finished our discussion … Err, what are you …"
Everyone was solemn. Sandora got down from my arm resentfully. Then, she instantly put on a cold expression as though nothing had happened. "Now, let me talk about the technical details …"
"Please hurry up." Cocokina made an awkward gesture. "Right now, we can confirm that we have lost another early warning aircraft. The enemy's encirclement has shrunk further and they are about to detect our main forces."
It seemed that this was the main reason why they had made up their minds so quickly.
Sandora quickly finished explaining the so-called technical details. Actually, the engineers of the Fifth Fleet didn't need to do much. They only needed to remove the protective device on the Void Jump Engine so that it could be overloaded indefinitely. After that, they could voluntarily write some collective wills under Cocokina's organization. After that, they could only pray for luck and my operating skills.
"So, what do I need to do?"
After temporarily ending the communication with Cocokina, I began to confirm the details of my mission with Sandora. She didn't reply to me for the time being. Instead, she contacted the City of Shadows. "Sives, prepare a Void Shuttle. The kind that is equipped with all types of positioning devices."
After that, Sandora turned to me. "Next, we will send you to the Fifth Fleet …"
I was speechless.
"Of course, I want to be with you." Sandora didn't wait for my reply and made the next decision on her own. "No objections or reasons are allowed. I know that you are rash. I am worried."
"Is there a need?" I felt awkward. Besides, Sandora's worries were unfounded. "It's not like you don't know that I am invincible in the Void."
"This has nothing to do with you being invincible." Sandora naturally kissed me on the cheek. She didn't care about her surroundings at all. "Do you think that I will let you go alone at this time? Also, I am worried that the Fifth Fleet will do something. They don't trust us. Of course, I don't dare to trust them now. We can't act based on emotions. This is a matter of principle. "
I knew that Sandora had already made her decision. It seemed that there was no way to change it. Thus, I could only nod in agreement.
Then let's go. We will be sent to the end of the Void …
