Chapter 625: A moment that cannot be changed?

But as long as he doesn't go bankrupt, the financial life and death of his other old friends has nothing to do with him.

He was also curious about what kind of life his old friend would choose after going bankrupt.

After a slight cough, Arles turned his gaze to the star map and asked Osel.

"Which star field occupied by the Mechanical Empire are we going to attack next?"

Osel stretched out his hand and changed the color of the Euromilan star field on the star map.

"From now on, this Euromilan star field is ours to occupy."

Seeing Osel do this, a hint of doubt flashed in Arles' eyes.

Because of the war between the Original Domain and the Mechanical Empire, the Euromiran star field has been destroyed.

Everywhere there are remnants of the power of "elements" and the remains of mechanical creations.

Most of this star field has become a barren star field.

The Euromilan star field, which was once comparable to the upper-middle star fields, has never recovered after this war and is as weak as those remote galaxies.

Poverty and backwardness.

As if sensing Arles's gaze, Osel smiled and explained:

"Although we have occupied the Euromilan star field, this does not mean that we must station a legion here or settle immigrants and colonies."

"All we have to do is wait."

“Wait for other civilizations to occupy this place one day. Then, after they rebuild it, we can legitimately occupy everything here.”

"Since ancient times, the Euromilan (xxxx) star field has been the inherent territory of our original domain."

"With our powerful forces and strength as our foundation, do you think those civilizations will choose to resist? Or will they choose to accept our rule honestly?"

Arles' eyes widened when he heard this explanation.

Is there such a way to “get something for nothing”?

wrong!

Strictly speaking, it is not something that can be considered as something that can be gained without effort...

After all, the original domain actually used war to repel the mechanical empire that occupied this star field, so this was not something that could be gained without effort.

This is a legal way to achieve the results you deserve!

Thinking of this, Arles couldn't help but feel awe.

Osel is such a kind man!

……

Mechanical Empire, on the glorious metal throne.

"What a coincidence..."

Emperor Rupert felt his heart sink instinctively as he looked at the light screen in front of him, showing that several star territories had disappeared almost at the same time.

Today's Mechanical Empire has begun to manufacture mechanical combat soldiers on a large scale, and they are the kind of mechanical combat soldiers that do not have much intelligence.

The purpose is to cope with the increasingly terrible war that will follow.

True intelligent machines possess extremely high intelligence. While unconditionally obeying the settings of the anti-organic life equation, they will also perform some special "maintenance" on themselves.

Therefore, compared to non-intelligent mechanical warriors, the resources consumed by a pure intelligent machine to become a qualified warrior until death are several times that of a mechanical warrior.

At present, the counterattack from organic life forms is becoming more and more terrifying. The Mechanical Empire has lost several star territories in succession, and all the intelligent machines participating in the war have died.

So he must figure out how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

The useful resources in each star field will not increase in the short term, which is qualitative in a sense.

In order to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, it is more time-saving and labor-saving to manufacture mechanical soldiers to deal with wars than to manufacture intelligent machines to deal with wars.

"But their sacrifice is not in vain..."

Reading the information uploaded by those intelligent machines on the quantum intelligent machine network, Rupert watched carefully.

"With this information, we can create a powerful weapon that can kill the Blesser and even the Messenger..."

"I guess there's a chance it can be made, right?"

All the terrifying computing power was gathered together at this moment, and began to deduce new weapons with the help of the information data obtained from the sacrifices in those battles.

Any living thing in this world has weaknesses and can be killed.

Even the star gods in the legend who are powerful enough to destroy the universe, didn’t they also have several who died?

The database contained examples of Star Gods falling, and Rupert did not believe that an envoy who was far inferior to a Star God would not be able to die.

Although there is always a force preventing him from developing weapons that can harm or even kill the Messenger, there is a saying that goes:

The more your enemies don't want you to have something, the more you should have it.

Assuming that he could kill the envoy or even a being more powerful than him...

Then his great ambition would have been fulfilled long ago.

The light in his electronic eyes dimmed, and he began to concentrate on deducing the terrifying weapon that could severely injure or kill the messenger.

What Rupert didn't know was that everything he did was in vain.

Because from the very beginning of his birth, all he did was just a cold message.

His struggle would not add any uncertainty to the outcome of his death.

This was his destined death.

Of course, it can also be said that it is an inevitable death bestowed by the Star God.

……

At the Interstellar Peace Company, Dongfang Qixing, who could no longer tolerate the loss of profits, met with the genius club #4 Polka Kakamu at the Galaxy Library "Ismail".

"I want to hire you to complete a mission." Dongfang Qixing knew Polka Kaka's character very well, so he didn't use all kinds of witty remarks or nonsense like he did in the past, but spoke bluntly:

"Kill Emperor Rupert. He has brought too much damage to me and the company."

"He must die!"

Polka Kakamu, wearing a white coat, adjusted the frame of her glasses on her nose and began to use her power to analyze everything in front of her.

"Omniscience"

Let all probabilities become certainties.

The concepts of "maybe" and "or" were completely eliminated from her ability.

"He will die," Polka Kakamu responded calmly, "but not by my hands."

"With your ability..." Dongfang Qixing frowned slightly, somewhat doubting the meaning of Polka Kakamu's words.

"In the 'moment' calculated by Master Boshi, someone else killed Rupert, and before that, no one could kill Rupert."

"Including me."

Polka Kakamu explained: "The 'moment' anchored by the Master of Knowledge is inevitable, and even the Star God cannot change it."

"I calculated his death before the events of Red Mourning, but I tried 1,620 times and failed to kill him."

"He shouldn't have died before or after the 'moment'. I can't change the 'moment' calculated by the Master of Knowledge."

"In order to verify once again whether the "moment" can be changed, I also used my ability to kill Rupert, but unfortunately, he was resurrected the next moment after I killed him."

"..." Listening to Polka Kakamu's words, Dongfang Qixing fell into silence.

After a few breaths, he asked again:

"In that case, has the third 'moment' arrived?"

"We're here." Polka Kakamu replied.

"In that case, I'll trouble you a thing." Dongfang Qixing smiled slightly after getting the answer.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Polka Kakamu was a little confused.

"Help me kill Rupert." Dongfang Qixing repeated his request.

Hearing this question, Polka Kakamu was about to refuse, but seemed to have thought of some possibility and fell into deep thought.

Dongfang Qixing also began to explain.

"As you said, the third 'moment' has arrived, and it is time for Rupert to die."

"Since he is supposed to die, did Master Boshi explain how he must die?"

“The three ‘moments’ simply represent three major events. The specific factors that occurred during these events are meaningless, but what the ‘moments’ represent is definitely unchangeable.”

"The third 'moment' refers to the death of Rupert and the collapse of the mechanical empire."

"Then compared to Rupert's death, it doesn't matter who killed him."

Having said that, Dongfang Qixing smiled subtly, turned around and left.

However, when he left, he also left a message.

"You said that the 'moment' anchored by Master Boshi cannot be changed. This is something you have verified countless times. So..."

"now what?"

"Would you like to try changing the initiator of "Moment"?"

"It seems that Master Boshi didn't say who killed Rupert, right?"

"As long as the conditions are met... even I have a chance, right?"

After leaving these words, Dongfang Qixing left the Galaxy Library "Ismail".

After boarding the jump ship back to Pierpoint, he leaned back in his chair and fell into a doze.

In fact, he was still a little nervous.

After all, the person he just met was an extremely dangerous criminal, or... a terrorist?

Although he is a genius, the other party's personality and abilities really make it difficult for him to remain calm.

"Kill Emperor Rupert... me? Are you kidding me..."

"I'm just an ordinary rich man. It's better for others to do things like killing people..."

As the star tracks appeared, the spaceship also started its jump and returned to Pierpoint.

Now that the war has gotten a little serious, it would be better for him to stay in Pier Point to avoid being killed by the aftermath.

Although the probability of this happening is very small, it is not impossible.

……

In the Kale Star Region, countless stars shattered in an instant, and the matter and energy scattered by the shattered stars seemed to be bound by some extremely terrifying force at this moment, and did not cause any changes in the surrounding field.

As a golden ripple spread out, the robotic army that had caused countless atrocities was completely annihilated.

On the starry road paved with stardust, Zhongli's golden pupils shone with extremely dazzling light like a supernova.

"call……"

He exhaled slightly, released his perception, and spiritually connected to the observation device. After confirming that all the intelligent machines infected by the anti-organic life equation in the Kale Star Field had been annihilated, he returned to the command mothership.

As soon as he returned, Xiweila threw the high-energy concentrated drink in his hand to the other party, and said:

"This is the second star field."

"Based on our current progress, we will be able to reach the homeland of the Mechanical Empire in ten years at most."

"The speed is still too slow." Zhongli shook his head and put the high-energy concentrated drink in his hand on the table.

Compared to this kind of technology and hard work, he still prefers original things.

For example, ordinary tea that has not been processed...

"It's going to take that long?" Turanhava slumped on the sofa on the other side with a tired look on his face. "That means it will take a long time for us to return to the original area?"

"Trouble..."

Hearing this, Silvira looked at Turanhava with great contempt.

When we were still in the continent of Teyvat, although the other party was a bit despicable, strictly speaking, he was still a demon with a bottom line.

But as time went by and he became more and more familiar with the other person, the other person seemed to have put down his serious hat.

Suddenly it became limitless.

No matter what I do, I always complain.

Just like this time, they clearly didn't do anything, not even cheerleading, but as soon as the battle in this star field was over, they started complaining...

Even though you didn't do anything, you still worked hard, right?

There was a lump in my chest and I really wanted to vomit.

"Although this guy has no bottom line, what he said is indeed correct..."

Xiweila fell into deep thought.

"If we give such a long time to the intelligent machines, which have great war potential, to develop, who knows what dangerous weapons might appear..."

"Even though Zhongli is standing in front of us, there is no guarantee that we won't be in danger."

"If he is delayed by the enemy's sea of ​​weapons tactics, and we are left alone..."

Thinking of this, he immediately became serious.

“I think Turanhava is right!”

Turanhava was also slightly startled when he heard what Silva suddenly said.

Did he... just say something extraordinary?

His eyes were blurry and he began to carefully recall what he had just said.

"If this kind of war lasts for a year or two, it will be fine, but if it lasts for such a long time, I think it will affect the mood of the fleet."

Xiweila's expression was rather serious.

"If there are seeds of anti-war sentiment in the military, or if they don't want to continue fighting, I'm afraid there will be big problems!"

"So we should end this war as soon as possible, win the victory, and kill Rupert as soon as possible!"

After hearing this series of words, Turanhava thought about it carefully and found that it made a lot of sense.

Killing Rupert as soon as possible would mean the war would end early, and it would also mean they wouldn't have to spend money on dinner and wouldn't fall into bankruptcy...

Come to think of it, their speed is indeed a bit slow!

"Me too!" Turanhava immediately sat up straight and responded.
