The Dark Protoss.
I reckon that anyone who has read a few web novels and studied on Qidian for a few years would have an impression of this title.
Be it the cruel and ruthless Evil King who subverted the world, or the Light God who used public opinion to suppress them, or the source of disaster who led half of the world's believers to create a bloodbath thousands of years ago. In any case, the title of the Dark Protoss has a resounding reputation in all kinds of human legends, be it positive or negative.
Thus, when the girl named Monina revealed her social status as the Dark Protoss, my first reaction was to squeak and pinch Liliana's cheek.
"Wah! Boss, what are you doing! "
"Uh, looks like I'm not dreaming."
I scratched my head and ignored Liliana who was baring her fangs and brandishing her claws in protest. I confirmed with Monina again, "By the way, did you just say that you are the Dark Protoss?"
"That's right, the Dark Protoss, Blade Ranger, an assassin who specializes in targeted killings and covert executions." Monica still had a calm and polite smile on her face and her blood-red eyes sparkled like rubies.
"Okay, I understand." I rubbed my forehead and sighed, "What about Ilson who was sent flying by you … oh, he's walking back here now?"
"That's my stupid brother." Monica sighed helplessly and introduced him to us with the tone of a tired older sister talking about her disappointing younger brother. "Ilson Dazzle is on the left. His combat job is the Protoss Guard and his rank is one rank higher than mine. It's a pity that his idiotic personality has kept him in this position for more than 270,000 years. Oh, also, he is a Light Protoss, the kind that emits light."
You're too sharp-tongued, you're too sharp-tongued to your own brother. Did you see that Eersson collapsed on the way?
Even though they were filled with all kinds of things that deserved to be ridiculed, these two siblings who were on the opposite ends of the spectrum were quite friendly and friendly. After chatting for a while, we roughly understood each other's situation.
Monina wasn't Ilson's biological sister. Of course, this didn't mean that she was an orphan. On the contrary, not only were their parents still alive, they were also doing very well as management gods in a faraway world. However, since the two families had been friends for many years (Even for the Protoss, when did these two families know each other?) As a result, the two of them formed the Twin Contract unique to the Protoss and became brother and sister. This was also why the Light Protoss and the Dark Protoss were so close. (Is it really okay to use the word 'close' to describe it?). Since the Dark Gods and the Light Gods were so close, it was evident how harmonious the Protoss Pantheon was. The Light Church and the Dark Church, which fought each other in the name of faith, probably wouldn't even imagine how close the Gods they believed in were in private …
Due to their individual strength and unique powers, the Gods of the Star Domain's combat hierarchy was composed of flexible Battle Orders and small teams. Under normal circumstances, the Protoss with Divine Concepts would carry out missions independently, or they would call on a group of Battle Orders (composed of ordinary warriors without Divine Concepts, who had decent combat strength, but didn't have those outrageous privileges) to go out and rob … er, uphold justice. Under special circumstances, such as when the Gods went on an expedition into the Chaos Abyss once in a while, these independent Protoss would immediately form small teams (these teams would have no more than ten people at most, and were very suitable for facing the complex and ever-changing Chaos Abyss). Then, they would form their own small teams and gradually form large-scale armies. Jingle's team was currently busy with their own work during peacetime. Monina and Ilson had been carrying out missions outside to accumulate experience, and now they were on a rare break. However, when the siblings excitedly mentioned this to Jingle …
The two of them were directly grabbed by the little thing. Just now, Dingdang and I had already confirmed the identities of the two people in front of us through our mental connection. The little thing had clearly pointed out that Eersson was a hot-blooded idiot, the type that wouldn't die no matter how much we trained him. If there was anything like blocking his eyes or testing his poison, we could just let him do it.
Someone who could make Jingle call a hot-blooded idiot … could it be that Ilson was Yohei Haruhara's reincarnation?
I never expected that Dingdang would be such an incredible individual — fine, in reality, a small combat squad leader wouldn't be considered an incredible individual among the Gods, but compared to the impression that Dingdang gave me of an indestructible pet, being able to pull an unreliable pair of brother and sister subordinates from the God Realm over to help us was already an astonishing ability.
It was as if a snot-nosed little girl who always followed you around, waiting for candy, suddenly pulled two other snot-nosed little girls in front of you and boldly told you, "These two are my subordinates, and they'll be following you from now on." Even if these so-called subordinates were nothing more than unremarkable little brats, you would still involuntarily exclaim, "Wow! So this little brat has subordinates! "
Yep, that was exactly how it felt.
Even though I didn't know how strong the other party was, as Protoss, especially as regular combat personnel with Divine Concepts, Ilson and Monina's abilities shouldn't be too bad, especially in the field of mysticism. They were definitely a hundred times stronger than the half-baked Liliana and me, who couldn't even be considered a half-baked. I even dared to make an unscrupulous guess that when faced against their long-time, last-place leader, the two of them wouldn't lose out to him in terms of professional knowledge. With the help of such professionals, the problem of the world fragment should be much easier.
But disappointingly, it seemed that my beautiful thoughts were just wishful thinking.
"Combat strength and technical skills are two different things." Ilson crossed his arms in front of his chest, nodding his head as if he was serious. "It's not a problem for us siblings to fight, but it's a little troublesome to solve such a complicated and rare world mutation. Our leader also said that we came here to help run errands."
"Even though the words of this idiot brother of mine are discouraging, it's the truth. When faced with this kind of unprecedented mutation, perhaps the World Law Mod Research Society and those damn otakus will have some ideas, but as professional warriors, I'm afraid that our strength will be useless."
Monina sighed, unwillingly agreeing with her brother's words.
"It can't be? You Protoss are so powerful, using an idiot system to manage the world, how are you going to deal with a small world fragment … "
I exclaimed in shock. I originally thought that these two experts would be able to solve the problem in one fell swoop, but why were they as unreliable as Jingle?
Monina didn't show the slightest dissatisfaction towards my doubt, instead, she explained methodically, "Let's explain it in a way that humans can understand … In the eyes of humans, isn't the king a very powerful person?"
I nodded my head confusedly, not understanding what saving the world had to do with a human king.
Monina smiled faintly and continued, "Now that the Prime Minister's wife can't give birth to a child, what can the king do to help?"
I was speechless.
Jingle, how do you normally manage your subordinates!! Is this person really a regular soldier of the Protoss? Or could it be that you chose Liliana as your Head Priestess back then because you felt a sense of familiarity with that lass's shamelessness!
"In any case, don't have too much hope for us, we're just people who do odd jobs!" Ilson flashed his white teeth once again, the corner of his mouth reflecting a dazzling light as he gave me a thumbs up. "If it comes to a fight, us siblings will definitely be invincible!"
"It must be tough to have such an older brother."
I used my gaze to send such a message to Monina, who had just thrown her brother out and added two more Dark Shocks.
"It's alright, he'll calm down after a few more hits."
Monina had a gentle smile on her face as she replied with a serious expression and gaze.
However, even though professional warriors would be a little restrained in this field that required a high level of "otaku soul" to dabble in, as the Protoss whose lifespan could allow a human to evolve from a single cell to an ultraman more than a hundred times over, Monina and Ilson still brought us some useful information. Relying on the fact that the Protoss was a lifeform that violated the rules, the two of them walked directly from the Void Plane into this region of white fog as if they were taking a stroll. This proved that the world fragment was indeed completely exposed to the void, and its outer layer of the world barrier had long been destroyed. In other words, the layer of barrier that protected the world's internal information from being leaked had already become a part of this constantly evaporating white fog.
"At the intersection of the Void Plane and the world fragment, at the outermost layer of the white fog, we found remnants of information suspected to be the world barrier. Of course, it has already evaporated to the point where only one or two basic descriptions are left." Monina and I strolled through the area of white fog. This thing that would be fatal to any living creature in the real world was no more than a fart to the Protoss siblings (look at this strange analogy of mine!). Ilson even had the spare energy to activate a Guardian Aura for Liliana and me, so that the fake Priestess Loli and I wouldn't have to waste our stamina to maintain the Void Shield and divine force field. After all, no matter how powerful we were, our bodies were still physical, and couldn't compare to the Protoss's Concept Forms at all.
"Could that layer of barrier have been broken by an external force?"
I threw out my doubts. According to the information provided by Artemis, this world fragment had probably been maintained for several years (if there was a symmetry between the time here and Earth). To be able to persist in the void for such a long time, it definitely had a stable layer of defense on its surface. But now, the information from this fragment had begun to contaminate all parallel planes similar to Earth in the entire multiverse. Didn't this mean that all of this was caused by a mastermind behind the scenes?
"I know what you're thinking." Monina might have already learned a lot of information from Jingle. "The God Realm has already begun to pay attention to the slumber of the Xiling Empire and the appearance of the Fallen Apostle. However, this time, this world fragment … Anyway, according to the information that Ilson and I have discovered, there is no evidence that the evaporation of the fragment is related to the Fallen Apostle. It could also have naturally disintegrated after drifting in the void for too long. After all, the world fragment formed after the end of the world does not have a truly complete world barrier. It is highly likely that it is a self-buffering structure similar to the Concept Body of Aether. This kind of random structure that can only temporarily maintain stability is gradually eroded by the Void energy, causing its outer shell to crack."
I really wanted to nod in agreement, but unfortunately, I didn't understand a single word.
As for the reason for the appearance of the world fragment, Monina's own guesses were basically the same as our deductions. An extremely powerful instantaneous energy explosion caused a portion of the world to be digitized, thus forming the world fragment. The only difference was that, because we had recently dealt with the Fallen Apostle, we had always believed that this energy came from an external attack. However, Monina and Ilson, based on the Protoss's experience, determined that the energy explosion this time came from the world itself. A world that was mainly composed of space and independent celestial bodies was a typical energy diffusing type of world. The advantage of this kind of world was that it could always automatically stabilize itself during its own evolution process, because its entropy value would steadily increase along with the expansion of the universe and the equalization of energy. However, the disadvantage was that once its own internal structure was destroyed, this kind of world would very likely obey the basic laws and undergo a partial "loss" in order to ensure the continued stability of its overall structure. This loss could result in the destruction of the void, or it could result in the formation of a world fragment.
In any case, I didn't understand either explanation …
"Right, I wonder how our team leader came to a conclusion on this matter?" Monina seemed to have suddenly recalled something. "Back then, she only asked us to come over to help, but she didn't go into too much detail."
"This …" The corner of my mouth twitched subtly. "Her point of view is basically the same as ours, En."
Even though I had spoken very tactfully, Ilson, who knew his team leader's temperament, immediately shrugged and spread his hands. "In any case, our team leader would definitely say, 'Ah, it's too complicated, too complicated, let's just treat it as an external attack …' Something like that."
Your summary is very incisive.
As we spoke, we gradually left the area of the white fog and returned to the location where we had entered the broken zone. Strictly speaking, we were slightly further back than where we had started, because in front of us, the spherical magic formation that Liliana had set up seemed to be only a few dozen meters away. It was obvious that in the past few hours, the world had continued to evaporate.
Furthermore, the evaporation process wasn't uniform.
I noticed that a gas station in the distance had been dismantled by the white fog, and if the evaporation process of the world fragments was completely uniform, it should have only come into contact with the white fog after the alarm set up by Liliana. In other words, based on my estimations, the time left for Artemis and the rest was probably less than fifteen days.
"You set this up?" Monina looked curiously at the three-dimensional magic formation that was hovering in the air and spinning continuously. "Not bad, you pass."
Tsk, she's just relying on her God-made body to have a good birth. You haven't seen when this girl has no integrity!
Because we were going to meet Artemis and the rest, under my strong request, Monina and Ilson had changed their overly conspicuous Protoss equipment. Monina had a petite figure and looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, so it wasn't strange for her to wear a high school student's clothes. But Ilson, do you really think anyone would believe that you are a high school student? Your height multiplied by your muscles is equivalent to the physical education teacher in my first year of high school, you bastard!
I really didn't expect that after taking off his full body of heavy armor, Ilson would still be half a muscular man. Of course, he hadn't reached the level of a humanoid tank, but coupled with his melancholy eyes and short blonde hair, I felt that it was a waste that he didn't go to the West to become a war god.
"Idiot brother is a war god in the world we manage."
Monina's matter-of-fact words made me completely speechless.
Uh, wait, blonde hair … When Artemis appeared in my field of vision, I suddenly thought of this and turned my head mechanically.
Monina, long silver hair, blood-red eyes.
Ilson, short blonde hair, golden pupils — his eyes can even emit holy light!
What a scam! Is your disguise just a change of clothes? At least get rid of this completely non-human racial trait, you bastard!
But to my astonishment, Artemis completely ignored Ilson and Monina, who looked completely different from normal people. She simply greeted us casually and then led us to the tall old building.
I was absolutely certain that Artemis did not fail to see the two aliens beside me because she was hypnotized by some power, because her gaze was clearly focused on the two of them for a few seconds, but then she looked away as if nothing had happened, as if she had ignored the two pairs of eyes that looked like cosplay.
"It's just a slight change in worldview — — not just for this girl, but for everything that was born in this world."
Monina tilted her head slightly and explained.
As expected, not only Artemis, but even her companions also treated Monina and Ilson as natural existences. But it was obvious that the Awakeners didn't treat the latter as a "newcomer" with me. It was as if …
It was as if they were NPCs that should appear naturally. Even if they had no background or origin, they would be accepted by anyone just by suddenly appearing among them.
Facing my new confusion, Monina didn't hide anything. "As a warrior who specializes in covert executions, distorting one's own existence and worldview within a certain range should be as easy as eating and drinking. If I wanted to, I could even kill their leader in front of hundreds of millions of people. Regardless of whether it was the person killed or the bystanders, they would all remain clear-headed and think everything was normal. And in my divine form, I could easily remove any celestial body including its own star without affecting the movement of other celestial bodies, because I had already set their existence as' unnecessary '."
"She did this once before, and then she was imprisoned for destroying the integrity of the world … Ah!"
Ilson, one day you'll die because of that mouth of yours.
