Chapter 532: Sky Gap
Chapter 532: Sky Gap
At 12:17 am on April 22, resonance technicians from multiple companies and the resonance users they hired began to continuously invade the government's platform to search for information.
On the other hand, a large number of people in the central city government also fought back, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle of offense and defense on the field.
However, even without the space of the Ximu to borrow, the government still maintained the situation by relying on its absolute resources and home advantage.
It's just that because of the attack and defense of the field, the field communication resources are occupied in large quantities, resulting in intermittent holes in many places on the light curtain, which means that the field signal is temporarily lost there during that period of time, and there is no complete monitoring.
The female assistant put her hand on the boundary at this time, as if listening to something. After a while, she looked up and said, "Commissioner, the Government Affairs Office has requested the Ministry of Defense to deploy more inactive consciousness entities."
Commissioner Liang said: "It is not the right time to reject their application."
This is only the first split of the Mother Shrimp, and it is far from the most uncontrollable moment. His backup inactive consciousness will be used at the most critical moment.
Because the companies are still just testing the waters and no one has sent anyone out to snatch them, it only took an hour for the emergency response teams in each area to find and recover the first wave of fission bodies.
The voice from the sentry tower sounded immediately: "After confirmation, all the first wave of fission bodies have been captured, without any omissions."
After hearing the news, everyone in the command hall looked a little more relaxed. After all, this was a good start.
Commissioner Liang still had that serious look on his face, because he knew it was far from the time to relax. At the beginning, the number of offspring of the mother maggot was relatively small, only in the single digits.
The most likely location for it to appear, the central city, had been estimated in advance, and there were no major obstacles, so action could be taken quickly.
But things will be different next. As the waves increase, the number of offspring split by the mother will gradually increase, and there will be more and more places that cannot be taken care of. It will inevitably become gradually out of control, and it can be said that it will become more and more chaotic as time goes on.
There is another point that needs attention. That is, when the mother shrimp is in the period of fission and reproduction, even if the fission bodies are recovered one by one, the world cracks that spread out as a result will not disappear.
In this way, they must arrange a certain number of personnel or guards near each rift, which will also dilute their strength.
Once certain companies and powerful groups have collected the data, they will definitely take the opportunity to seize the split bodies, and that will be a real tough battle.
At this time, an internal civil servant walked up to him, saluted, and handed him a document.
Commissioner Liang took it and took a look. It was a report issued by the "Sentry Tower", which estimated that the third wave of fission bodies would reach more than twenty, and would increase in subsequent waves.
This is inevitable. In order to reduce the excessive changes caused by concentration, after modulation, the original large-scale fission daughters have become a large number of relatively small individuals. However, the increase in number has also brought another kind of trouble, that is, the recovery is relatively cumbersome and difficult.
He thought to himself that he hoped the preparations he had made before would be able to cope with the situation that was to come.
An hour and a half passed quickly, and the time came to 1:39 in the morning. At this time, the mother shrimp underwent a second split, this time reaching nine split bodies. The sentry tower immediately gave the accurate location and estimated recovery time.
This time it was still relatively smooth. The information war in the outer field was still going on, but the frequency of attack and defense was obviously much lower than before.
This does not mean that the other side has given up, but that the companies and groups conducting investigations have gradually gained access to the information they need. After all, in addition to stealing information, the spies arranged by various forces in various regions can also obtain information through manual observation.
At 2:20, the second wave of recycling ended.
Commissioner Liang rubbed the corners of his eyes on both sides of his nose. Then he saw the female assistant handing him a cup of tea, and he took it with a thank you.
I looked at the countdown above and the third wave was at 3:25.
He said in a deep voice: "The third wave of sub-shrimp mothers will enter a turbulent stage. The outer field will be completely ineffective, and those things in the ditches and bumps will also emerge." He took a sip of tea and asked: "Do you feel anything over there?"
The female assistant shook her head.
Commissioner Liang looked at the steam on the teacup and said slowly, "It seems to be hidden very deeply. We must be patient."
On the sea surface of Yinglu District Port, a ship that was originally near the coast was approaching the shore.
Gong Ying Changxiu and a group of Fenglinguan disciples stood on the deck of the ship, holding long swords at their waists. Behind them was the cloud light like the sunset, and the sea breeze blew their ancient fighting costumes.
Gong Ying Changxiu closed his eyes and felt it. At this moment, he became mentally active. After he had been to the Ghost Gate, he was now going to try to step through the Heaven Gate.
After a moment, he opened his eyes and said, "Brother Guan Shang, there is a duel waiting for me. We will say goodbye here."
Guan Shangjing bowed deeply to Gong Ying Changxiu: "Brother Gong Ying, please."
Gong Ying Changxiu turned around and returned the salute solemnly, then got off the boat with his fellow Fenglin Pavilion disciples and got on a vehicle that had been prepared at the dock and drove towards the central city area.
At this time, in the Xihui Opera House, Astrid put on a knight's armor and hung the special attack tools she had prepared in advance on her body.
This set of equipment was prepared for her by the Boren Company. Both the armor and the weapons were made of special materials and could perfectly match her abilities.
While checking, a voice came from behind.
"Attis..."
Astrid turned and looked over.
A woman in black armor was leaning against a pillar. She had black hair and black eyes. This was Sigrid, the actress who played the female knight in the drama. Although she was also wearing armor, she made no sound when she arrived.
She said, "Artis, the company asked me to cooperate with you. I will be your solicitor." "Siggy, can I trust you?" Astrid looked into her black eyes and said, "After all, we have fought so many times that I have lost count."
"Of course, who else can you trust besides me?" Sigrid smiled playfully.
Astrid smiled, picked up the helmet on the table, put it on her head, and joked, "Knights can't believe it, but I'm a shepherdess."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pushed down the visor.
He then picked up the long gun that was leaning on the table, turned it lightly, and with a click, it shrank into a short gun, which he inserted behind his back.
"Okay, everything is ready."
She took a few steps forward, stretched out her hand, and shook hands with Sigrid, "Siggie, it's time for us to go." Then she walked out with the sound of clacking footsteps.
Sigrid turned around, looked at her silently for a few seconds, put on her helmet, and followed.
An hour passed quickly, and the third split of the mother shrimp came as expected.
This time was different from the previous times. The movement was extremely large. First, slight earthquakes occurred in various areas of the central city. Then, the cracks in the sky suddenly expanded, and there appeared many cracks extending outward like tree branches.
Powdery, crystal-red objects were falling from the edge, and it seemed as if the entire sky had turned into a mirror that was about to break.
As this state continued, more lightning-like lights emerged from inside, accompanied by rumbling sounds and spreading to the surroundings, and something seemed to be coming from within the crack.
Chen Chuan, who was sitting still, suddenly opened his eyes.
Just at this moment, he felt that his spirit had come into contact with a world.
I understood immediately.
The gate of heaven...is open!
Having waited for a long time, he immediately activated the method of spiritual reflection. Immediately, a trace of coolness permeated into his spirit, but at the same time, it seemed that an inexplicable infection also followed.
He knew clearly that was what Teacher Xue had referred to as the filth beyond heaven.
This requires him to absorb the essence while dissolving and expelling it.
But doing so would undoubtedly distract him. If he could concentrate fully on it, his efficiency would be greatly improved.
At that moment, he tried to let the second me bear it. In just a moment, a slight phenomenon of emptiness appeared on the second me, and I was no longer affected by it.
But then he felt that there was still a barrier above, blocking the arrival of more essence.
It was like a little bit of water leaking out of an hourglass, or like a trickle of water. Even if he could ignore the infection inside, he still needed to put more energy into searching.
If he wanted to change this situation, he had to do as Teacher Xue told him and push his own spirit upward.
He slowly raised the Xuejun Knife in his hand.
Only by fighting continuously can we elevate our spirits and penetrate deep enough into the opposite side to leave a mark.
But he wants to do more than that. He wants to take this opportunity to let the second me also climb to the third limit.
In this way, when the two are combined, not only will the combat effectiveness be enhanced, but the spiritual power will undoubtedly be more abundant.
Then, the next step is to find a strong enough opponent.
The atmosphere in the command center was much more tense this time than last time, because multiple emergency teams encountered obstacles at the same time and engaged in firefights with unknown forces, and none of their progress was smooth.
Although they could use their advantage in communications to dispatch nearby teams for support, the situation still made the situation uncertain.
At this moment, the sentry tower suddenly issued a warning: "Report, a large crack has been detected in the offshore area of Jiyang District, and it is continuing to expand."
"Offshore area?"
Commissioner Liang's expression froze, and he immediately instructed, "Send the footage back."
The light curtain flickered, and a beach appeared. Waves were surging on the sea in the distance, but now there was a wide crack there. The fog in the crack made it impossible to see clearly on the other side, but a rumbling sound could be vaguely heard.
That seems to be... thunder?
As the fog gradually receded, shadowy figures appeared inside. As these figures moved forward, the fog finally dissipated completely. Everyone finally saw clearly and couldn't help but open their eyes suddenly.
They were cavalrymen holding spears and wearing armor, with their horses and men fully equipped. In the formation were flying flags like a forest, and it was impossible to tell how many there were at a glance.
"This is... the sharp-armored cavalry of the old imperial family!"
