Him and their stars.

Chapter 1996: The dialectical relationship between implanting human brain and implanting computer
In fact, several seconds earlier in the real world, at the moment when the data terminal core of the Silence was invaded, the same type of abnormality occurred at the command center of Fortress No. 1.

The first thing that exploded was a bright light that was strong enough to deprive most people of their vision, but this bright light was fleeting after all, as if it was just a prelude.

Then, the torrents of data flashing on the terminal screens suddenly came alive, as if twisted into moving snake-like monsters by a powerful but malicious will, they bounced off the screens and pounced on the necks of the officers and soldiers in all the seats.

However, before these strange forces tore people's throats, an overclocked sharp whistle had already erupted in the room.

The hearing of ordinary people, and even normal mechanical equipment, would find it difficult to detect the existence of that noise. However, it still penetrated the hearing defenses of normal people like a virus and directly affected their mental level.

Many people covered their ears in pain, but it was completely useless. They looked in horror at the characters that turned into poisonous snakes and pounced on their throats.

Even Deng Zhengqing, who had just become a psychic, had no ability to resist. Or rather, it was because he became a psychic that he had a deeper understanding of the strange changes at the scene. What ordinary people saw was the characters and data links that suddenly turned into deadly venomous snakes, but what he saw was the endless cold will behind the terminal screen.

Every screen flashing with bright light looks like a black hole, and behind the black hole is an abyss with no bottom in sight.

However, just when everyone was about to be wiped out by this bizarre development, Feifei, who had been resting with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes. In the depths of her deep amber eyes, there seemed to be a blazing white flame flickering. With an almost inaudible ripple in space, the invisible and formless spirit sword fell into her palm.
In Deng Zhengqing's sight, everything on the scene seemed to slow down countless times. He saw with his own eyes that his classmate stood up, holding an invisible sword in his hand and raising it above his head, as if preparing to chop something.

However, the invisible sword above her head did not fall down.

What is he waiting for? Deng Zhengqing's mind went blank. In his current state, it was impossible for him to think deeply.

He looked at the characters that were almost touching the skin of his neck. He felt a numbing tingling sensation, like an electric shock, and a cold and hard touch, like the fangs of a real reptile.

He was almost in despair.

However, as a veteran officer of the Community and a warrior of the Earth, how could he show his weakness at this moment? He stared at the screen with his eyes wide open, as if he was ready to kill the will hidden behind it with his eyes.

With his intelligence, he had guessed that all this could only be done by the masters of the empire. So, he must not show weakness in front of such an enemy.

Even if he died, he would never lose the pride of an excellent Community officer.

But the strange thing is that when I really made up my mind, that cold and numb feeling seemed to fade away a lot at once.

Then, the world that seemed to have stopped began to move again in his senses. He saw at this moment that Colonel Fina Li seemed to have received some signal and finally raised her invisible sword and chopped down at the screens in front of her that were still flashing with cold light.

She was like a sword that could destroy evil. The noise in her ears, the bright light flashing in her eyes, and those hideous and twisted data snakes that were about to break everyone's necks, all the evil spirits and monsters disappeared instantly with this slash in the void.

Everything returned to normal, and everything that happened just now seemed like an illusion.

"This, this is..." Deng Zhengqing touched his neck with lingering fear and looked at his classmates. He wanted to ask many things, but he didn't know where to start.

The other party's voice rang directly in his mind: "I'm sorry, this is just a trick. Only the commander and I know about it on the entire ship."

Xiao Hui can't be considered a human, Feifei thought.

Deng Zhengqing knew that she was using telepathy, an advanced technique that a rookie like him had not yet mastered.

"Our opponent is very powerful. If anyone other than us knew about this, he would have noticed it."

Deng Zhengqing nodded slightly. As a professional officer, he certainly didn't think there was anything to worry about. If he could win, he wouldn't even mind being used as cannon fodder by his superiors.

However, if there are only two of them... doesn't this mean that Miss Li and Yu Lian are psychics of the same level? Even stronger than Miss Sword Saint?
With his intelligence, of course he immediately completed the above logical connection.

You hid it really well!
He couldn't help but look at Gongsun Qing next to him again, and found that this sword saint lady was not affected by the strange phenomenon just now at all. She just frowned and glanced around.

As expected, the method just now was specifically aimed at us mortals and rookies.

Gongsun Qing asked: "So, this was a trap from the beginning?"

Feifei nodded: "It has been like this since we arrived in Schlenburg and copied the information of the Golden Feather Palace."

"So, what about her?" Miss Sword Saint stared at the Miss Electress standing in front of her. There was a very dangerous look in her eyes, and the long sword in her hand was raised from the ground to the shoulder.

"Her?" Feifei shrugged. "It's hard to say, but luring us into this fortress is also part of the trap. Maybe she can be considered one of the baits? As for whether she knows about it, I don't know."

At this point, she turned her head and looked at the young girl's king-chooser: "Your Highness Feilian, do you really know about this? Or have you decided to play the role of a dead spy as the king-chooser?"

The Queen Electress, who seemed to have lost all her energy and spirit after being hit, raised her head and seemed to have finally regained some consciousness. Her body trembled, as if she was struggling.

However, she finally gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She raised her head again, looked at the person in her sight proudly, and said seriously: "Of course it's the latter! I knew everything from the beginning to the end! Now, please kill me!"

The Queen Elect, who was caught up in the martyrdom complex, had no idea that all the Earth soldiers at the scene were looking behind her with astonishment, as if they were looking at a ghost.

Of course, she did not notice that a mist had drifted out from behind her and condensed into a clear entity visible to the naked eye. It had the same figure and appearance as King Sleen, as if it was the spirit behind the girl's election of the emperor.

Or in other words, choose the emperor's daughter's avatar?

However, compared to the Queen Electress who was making a resolute gesture and ready to die, the face of this clone was expressionless and even mechanically stiff.

"Very good." Gongsun Qing kicked the girl away and swung his sword down without hesitation.

The girl's body fell to the ground, but the head of her clone flew into the air. There was no blood splattered, but only the almost indistinguishable spirit particles that were disintegrating.

When the Silence's communication came, this was the scene. Even a veteran like Captain Nemo was stunned for a long time, until he saw the girl's head falling from the sky turned into a ball of light that was dissipating, and then looked at the other girl lying on the ground. For a moment, he didn't know what expression to make.

The operations of psychics and the world of mysticism are indeed beyond the understanding of mortals like me!

"Captain, is the ship's terminal still functioning normally?" Feifei's question brought him back to his senses.

The captain stood at attention quickly, as if reporting to his superiors: "It's very laggy, but basic combat functions are still functioning smoothly. We can still operate this ship normally!"

"Are you sure?" Feifei asked back like a superior.

The captain's smile was just a social business smile, even flattering and shameless, but it also couldn't hide his pride: "Colonel, you know that the soldiers of the community can't fight only by relying on the legacy of the Enlightened One."

"You're really reliable!" Feifei nodded with satisfaction and looked at Deng Zhengqing again.

"At least there's no problem starting the fortress cannon." The latter said, "If that doesn't work, we can still use our hands to control it."

However, at this moment, a communications officer actually issued a loud warning: "A warp gravity reaction has occurred in the direction of gravity well No. 2! It is the direction of the Glory Road channel! The source of the wave 27... is the Imperial Fleet!"

"Gravity is also reacting in the direction of the star gate! A fleet is passing through the star gate!"

On and off the screen, whether in the fortress or at the headquarters on the battleship, there was a palpable silence.

If a fleet really passes through the star gate, they will even reach Fortress No. 2 faster than the Imperial Army that has just completed the jump in the direction of Gravity Well No. 2!
But at this time, Feifei clapped her hands and laughed loudly: "Very good. I want to see everyone's determination and see if everyone can protect the retreat for your leader! This must be what he wants to see."

On the other side, in the data world at the core of Silence, the high priest of the Hoshimi Pavilion who was in the midst of a standoff seemed to feel something. He turned his head to look at the entrance to the "universe" he had entered, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

"Your Highness Feilian...I am an incompetent old minister and have let all your efforts down!" A look of guilt appeared on his face.

Yu Lian also showed a polite look of guilt: "Oh, has the action already started outside? That's really a pity. My comrades are all strong and unyielding people. I don't know how far they will go."

"I hope they can at least give you a chance to live because you don't hold a military position. She is still a child after all." Nordos said to the officer, "This is all our plan. Your Highness is innocent."

Yu Lian was actually interested: "So, she is indeed one of the baits? Does she know about it?"

Officer Xing Jian did not answer immediately. He still had a modest, gentle and non-aggressive smile on his face. He asked back with his hands folded: "...You actually discovered the clues from the beginning, right? From when? From the very beginning?"

"You mean Schlumberg?"

High Priest Nordos said, "Back in October of this year, I saw information stirring in the Holy Temple of the Heaven Realm, information stirring that could bring about a subversive change in the future. A chain reaction also occurred in the information corridor of the Star Viewing Pavilion, and much of the information built in the Hall of Consciousness collapsed. Four of the Star Viewing Officers who maintained the corridor fell into a long-term coma."

"I'm sorry." Yu Lian spread his hands. He once again politely expressed traditional sympathy for those unfortunate officials.

Of course, if you have the courage to peek into the future, you must have the courage to accept death.

However, since it is November, that means that I have just received the Silence, and the Star Viewing Pavilion has already felt the warning?

“Come to think of it, when the plunderers invaded, assassinated the previous King Belial, broke through the Gate of Glory and the L3 star zone, and established an empire in the Dawn star field, was there no fluctuation in the information corridor of the Star Viewing Pavilion?” Yu Lian couldn’t help but ask back.

"Yes, but it's not important." Nordos' tone seemed as if it was a matter of course.

He looked at Yu Lian meaningfully again: "But you, young general, your existence is much more important than Queen Tomitelli. You are more important than the entire plunderer group's history of the past thousand years, and the future of the past thousand years, combined. I think you should understand this."

This should be a compliment to himself, right? Yu Lian thought, and then said: "Can the plunderer jump around for another thousand years?"

The high priest added: "Besides, is it really a bad thing for them to establish a kingdom in the Dawn Star Region in the long run?"

Yu Lian had to admit that the other party was right. In the long run, it was not a bad thing for the empire, and it was certainly not a bad thing for the universe.

"What about this battlefield? Did the Hoshimi Pavilion foresee the start of the war?"

"More than half of the 1000 possibilities indicate that the war will end within six months." He said, "General, we are not prophets, we are just giving the possibilities. This winning rate is enough for the empire to make a decision."

Yu Lian nodded: "I understand, economist."

High Priest Nordos immediately showed a hurt expression: "This is a bit hurtful."

"So he's a stock analyst? And he's also a financial blogger?"

"That's really too insulting." He shook his head in annoyance and said, "After all, the Hoshimi Pavilion should at least be some special situation analysts, or special actuaries."

Well, Yu Lian can still accept this statement for the time being.

He couldn't help but ask curiously: "So, what is the possibility of the community winning?"

Nordos pondered for a moment, smiled frankly again, and then raised a finger to Yu Lian.

"Only one time?"

"No, my array was destroyed when I was deducing in this direction. The loss of various materials and venues exceeded 100 million gold dragons at least."
