"If I had treated you as my partners from the start, perhaps everything would have been better." The blonde girl revealed a self-deprecating smile, then turned her gaze towards me. "Perhaps, we might have already unraveled the mysteries of those ancient super civilizations and grasped the technology to look down on the entire world …"
A red halo suddenly appeared on Visca's hand. Then, he waved it lightly in mid-air. An invisible energy was immediately dispersed by this illusion … seducing girl … in any case, it was just a wave of his hand.
"Meaningless resistance." Visca easily stopped the other party's hypnosis ability. Then, he curled his lips and said, "You guys are even worse than those man-made Gods back then."
Hey, hey, hey, you little brat, now you're treating that as glorious history!?
After sealing off all of the other party's abilities with ease and turning this dangerous girl into a completely ordinary person, I signaled the surrounding Schilling soldiers to temporarily keep an eye on her. Immediately, two black-armored soldiers walked forward and buckled a pair of metal bracelet-like objects on her arm. After pressing a few times, the two seemingly ordinary black metal bracelets gradually emitted a light blue radiance, outlining an unknown pattern on its surface.
Although I couldn't tell what this pair of bracelets was for other than being beautiful, the blonde girl should have guessed it herself. Trying to escape after wearing this pair of 'bracelets' was definitely a delusion.
In fact, as long as one's IQ was above two digits, they wouldn't think of escaping while trapped in a fortress in outer space with hundreds of Terminators escorting them, right?
"Looking at your expression, you don't seem to be disappointed at all?"
Looking at the blonde girl obediently allowing the 'handcuffs' on her, even the big sister was a little curious. "All of your schemes and capital for so long seemed to have been destroyed in an instant."
The big sister in her black-bellied state was the scariest. This was like sprinkling salt and pepper on a wound!
But in the face of the big sister's poisonous tongue which could almost be described as a weak point attack and infinite debuff, the blonde girl only showed a noncommittal smile and then ignored us. Speaking of which, was this really the expression a captive should show?
Sandora leaned over slightly and whispered in my ear, "This girl, although she seems to have some unknown purpose, she doesn't seem to care about anything, and her spirit is also very strong …"
"Are you learning psychology from Liliana?"
"How did you know?"
I: "…"
It seemed that Sandora really had too much free time recently.
Our original goal this time was to capture Artemis, and now our goal could be said to have been achieved. But because of the jaw-dropping thing like Visca's Stronghold Star, the plan naturally changed. After handing Artemis over to two Schilling warriors to escort, we walked under Visca's lead to the core control room of the fortress. That was the highest command center of the entire starship, and also the place where Visca presided over the invasion of Earth. To be honest, I was really quite curious about what the core control room of a starship would look like.
But in the end, what appeared in front of us was a starry universe …
"We're out!?"
After opening the door of the control room, I couldn't help but have such a thought, because the scene around us now was basically outer space!
A pitch-black background color, complex and bright stars, a bright galaxy that couldn't possibly be seen on the ground covered by a thick and turbid atmosphere, and we were floating in such outer space.
But after looking around, I suddenly found that Earth was floating not far to our left. Yes, there was also a message box with the word "Locked" on the outside of Earth … It seemed that this was not outer space.
"This is the panoramic view of the Stronghold Star," Visca explained to us why there was outer space around us, "If you stand in this room, you will actually see a 360 degree scene with the moon's crust as your eyes. Ah, Earth is still locked on by the Nuclear Resonance Cannon …"
Visca exclaimed in a low voice, and then hurriedly removed the dangerous weapon lock on the image of Earth.
At this moment, my eyes brimmed with tears of joy at the reliability of Schilling's technology — this thing had not gone off in more than 700,000 years, it was Mother Earth's ultimate luck!!!
From the futuristic alloy corridor to the "outer space", even Artemis, who had been calm all this time, let out a suppressed cry of surprise. Then, she began to look around curiously at the dreamy starry scenery around her, even forgetting the fact that if humans really entered outer space, they would die immediately.
Visca raised his right hand and pressed something in the void. Then, specks of light began to appear out of thin air from the surrounding darkness, as though the thousands of stars in the "outer space" were attracted and gathered together. These specks of starlight gathered together as Visca's fingers danced in the air, gradually forming a changing screen. These screens floated around Visca, and gradually, more and more, gradually formed a screen wall that quietly rotated around us. The screen displayed all kinds of strange things, most of them were messy data, but some were images of the base on the moon, including the huge engines and weapons that we had passed by but did not have the time to get close to observe. Among these messy images, some familiar scenes also flashed by. From the screen, we could clearly see the snow-capped Himalayas, the majestic Eiffel Tower, spectacular waterfalls and rivers, and the silly cat angel who was foolishly following behind a synchronous satellite …
… …
Big sister: "That was Alaya, right?"
Me: "… That girl is so embarrassing that she's thrown into outer space!"
The beautiful screen wall danced around us for nearly three minutes before suddenly dispersing in all directions, each finding a stable position against the pitch-black background of the starry sky. Among them, a specially enlarged image of a silly looking angel was placed in the most eye-catching position.
Visca: "Big sister Alaya is still as energetic as ever today!"
Everyone continued to tear up.
After activating a few basic systems, the drifting starlight in the surroundings suddenly spun at high speed, forming what seemed to be a control panel made of crystal in front of us. However, it was different from a normal control panel. There weren't any buttons or gauges on it, only a platform for standing and a few floating crystal panels. Come to think of it, a Star-level battleship was such a complex and enormous object, not to mention something like "Glory". Most of the operating commands had to be controlled by its creator. If a normal control panel was used, just the length of the keyboard alone would probably tire the controller half to death. This strange control panel was probably some kind of mental connection device.
Although Visca hadn't touched this system for more than 700,000 years, the thing in front of her didn't feel unfamiliar at all. She stood on the control panel with familiarity, and then the crystal panels lit up one by one. Large amounts of messy data began to be exchanged with Visca, the newly added command source …
Regaining command of the starship went relatively smoothly. After all, this was something that Visca had originally created, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was her clone. Even though this girl had completely forgotten that she still had a Golden-class starship during her most deranged period, causing this gigantic starship to be in a state of empty command, when the true owner returned today, the latter only went through a symbolic identification process before obediently returning to the little loli Visca's embrace.
I watched curiously from the side as my sister engaged in a deep conversation with the pile of transparent crystal boards. My imagination ran wild with thoughts about the heaven-defying Glory. Then, without warning, a strange feeling assaulted my heart.
That feeling … It was as though the originally peaceful space around me was suddenly filled with some kind of intense intent, or rather, as though everything around me had a soul. It was a completely indescribable experience, as though an overwhelming thought was surging in every inch of space around me, as though … as though it had jumped into someone else's mind. Speaking of which, wasn't this analogy a little too shocking?
"Success!"
Just as I was astonished by this unprecedented experience, Visca's light voice suddenly jolted me out of my hallucination. At the same time, the feeling of being surrounded by layers of the same intent instantly vanished.
"You were shocked, weren't you?" Sandora had a mischievous smile on her face as she looked at me, Shallow Shallow, and her sister, who also had a strange expression on her face. "After Glory is fully activated, its creator will become one with the starship itself. Just now, Visca's soul filled the entire starship, so …"
At this moment, a voice that I had almost forgotten suddenly rang out. "How is this possible … such an ancient ruin … How could you so easily …"
I turned around and saw that it was the golden-haired girl who called herself Artemis. Speaking of which, Artemis should mean the Moon Goddess in myths, right? Somehow, when I thought about the fact that the moon was actually Schilling's flagship, I suddenly felt that everything was filled with a sense of humor.
Thinking about this, I secretly tilted my head to look at Visca, who was checking the status of the control system. If it was really related to myths, it seemed that this red-eyed girl in front of me was the real Moon Goddess.
"Are you surprised?" Sandora said coldly to Artemis. As a true Shiring Apostles, she did not have a good impression of this fellow who had once tried to get his hands on the Empire's flagship. "This starship was originally the property of the Empire, and a human like you dares to have improper thoughts?"
"Property of the Empire?" Artemis seemed to be unable to react for a moment. "A … 'human' like me?"
"You still can't connect the dots?" Weska suddenly cut in. "How stupid. What Pantheon ruins, ancient ruins, and whatnot. Those are all our things. You've been studying the trash I threw away hundreds of thousands of years ago. Do you understand now? Or do you find it strange that we look so similar to humans? "
Artemis' expression suddenly stiffened. Even though the truth sounded so bizarre, in the face of everything that had happened, was there any room for her to not believe it? This was the only reason that could explain everything that had happened, and explain the so-called "boundless love" that was so powerful that it was like cheating, wasn't it?
At this moment, Visca, who was inspecting the entire planet's starship, suddenly shouted, "Brother! The situation on Planet Barrier doesn't seem right! "
I instantly became nervous. The situation on Planet Barrier didn't seem right? That meant that there was something wrong with the human moon! That thing could cause the extinction of all species on Earth several times over with just a few swings!
Without waiting for me to ask, Visca had already turned on the holographic projection system. Immediately, the image of a starship with a radius of several meters appeared in front of us. Judging from its structure, it should be Visca's Planet Barrier. However, what was strange was that the holographic projection of Visca's Planet Barrier had two concentric rings around it. Including them, the radius of the entire Planet Barrier had almost doubled.
And we all knew that it was impossible for the moon to have planetary rings around it.
"Planet Barrier is a planetary battleship with enhanced defense and endurance. As a result, its firepower system is slightly inadequate. To make up for this shortcoming, I added two components to it, which are these two circular structures. The outer ring is the railgun platform and the battleship parking platform, while the inner ring is the main weapon link and the military station cabin. But why are these two rings missing?"
Speaking of which, you should have noticed this anomaly from the very beginning, right? You shouldn't have only noticed now that such an important thing was missing, right?
When Weska saw that we were petrified as if we had been struck by lightning, he carefully explained, "I just remembered that I had added such a component to Planet Barrier after reading this information …"
Forget it, I didn't dare to imagine how chaotic Visca's mind had been in the past.
"The loss of these two components shouldn't affect the moon's stability, right?"
Visca shook his head. "No, Planet Barrier has a gravitational adjustment function, so losing the planetary rings isn't a big deal. Besides, it has been operating stably for the past hundreds of thousands of years."
"Then let Star Ring go!" I said with a solemn expression and a firm tone. "Don't ever find that thing again!"
Visca looked at me in confusion, but he still nodded obediently. "Okay."
At this point, the entire incident had finally come to an end.
Artemis, who had become an ordinary person, was handed over to the Ability Group. Of course, my sister had placed a curse on them to ensure that they would never tell anyone about the existence of the Shiring Apostles. Other than these two survivors, the entire Olympus could be said to have been completely wiped out by the Schilling Special Forces and the Ability Group. Such an incident naturally caused a huge upheaval in the dark world. But as soon as Boundless Love stepped onto the stage, it chose to retreat along with the destruction of Olympus and gradually disappeared from people's sight. Even the mysterious pop-up windows that often popped up disappeared along with it. It was as though this mysterious organization's only purpose was to destroy evil villains. But no matter how people speculated, they would never think that this was simply because the founder of Boundless Love had suddenly lost interest in public welfare.
Then, people naturally focused their attention on the Ability Group. Even a fool could tell that Boundless Love had a special relationship with the Ability Group. The two organizations' operations against Olympus were almost synchronized. Well, I'll leave it to Lin Xue and the others to deal with it. This was a rare opportunity to give them trouble, wasn't it?
As for Zeus and Artemis, although various channels in the dark world had begun to spread the news that they had been executed by the Psionic group, those who understood the situation knew that the two of them were more likely to be alive. Although they had lost their powers, they definitely had a lot of things in their heads. Although they were crushed to death as a joke, the initial strength of Olympus was obvious to all. There were definitely many people who coveted this organization's technology to enhance the strength of the Psionic group. Any organization that could capture these two people would treat them like treasures. It had to be said that it was ironic that the villains could live longer than their accomplices.
Another thing that must be mentioned was the disposal of Visca's Star Fortress. After less than a second of consideration, we decisively decided to keep the entire planet fortress in its current state. Other than allowing the various facilities to begin self-repair, we would not give any orders to the dangerous object. Just as Sandora said, the Earth's ecosystem was too fragile. Even if a massive satellite trembled next to it, it could lead to the end of the world. Although I was full of fantasies about driving the planet fortress to conquer the universe, if I really drove the moon away, human civilization would probably perish before the 15th of August next year.
I could finally enjoy a long-lost peaceful life. Why do I have to be involved in the troublesome matter of saving the world every time?
"As a harem man who lives like a YY novel, it is intolerable for you to have such complaints." Sitting on the chair opposite me, Great Prophet Lin elegantly tasted the peerless black tea that only Anveena could brew. She spoke in a calm tone as though she was talking about the weather.
Veins popped out on my forehead as I glared at the detestable fellow who refused to leave my house with a matter-of-fact expression. "Why are you in my living room!"
"Of course I'm here to drink tea."
"By the way, don't you think that the timing you chose is a little strange?!"
Lin Xue had a matter-of-fact expression. "Of course, would I be able to get a free meal if I didn't come at this time!?"
You should at least hesitate for a moment!
"Who asked your maid's cooking to be so good? You should know that I am also very troubled that I can't eat at home every day." Not only did Lin Xue not show any signs of repentance, she even pretended to complain. "Speaking of which, you guys have suddenly disappeared, leaving so many messy matters and all the public's attention to us. At least I can come here to get a free meal and relax, right?"
That's true … What the heck! It should be the other way around, right? In reality, we were the ones who helped you solve the biggest problem and let you clean up the mess, right?
"Speaking of which, why did you come here today?" Seeing that Lin Xue really showed an expression of "I'm just here to get a free meal", I finally couldn't suppress my curiosity and asked. Because according to this girl's attribute of being a troublemaker, it would be strange if she really came here to get a free meal and didn't cause trouble for me.
Lin Xue rolled her eyes at me. "Tsk, it's like I always cause trouble for you. Don't worry, I'm just here to get a free meal. Oh, by the way, let me tell you something …"
