Walk alone in the abyss

"Boss, we are about to enter the area where the omnic Twilight is located."

Yang Ming answered with a cup of coffee, and said slowly: "Report the plans again."

"Good boss."

The three-dimensional projection of Law appeared on the side, holding up a notepad in a dignified manner, and quickly talking about the arrangement they had made.

Yang Ming listened carefully while holding his coffee.

They will disappear for three months, and they cannot directly communicate with the outside world in the omnic Twilight. If any enemy disturbs Luofeng, Yang Ming will be caught off guard.

This is probably the risk that must be taken to inherit the fruit of the high-level civilization relic of the omnic twilight.

An emergency monitoring mechanism has been activated in Luofeng Empire.

Ontology No. 2 of the law will operate independently, and make judgments that are in line with their interests according to various situations, and will coordinate on its own if there is an emergency.

Once traces of the Valkyries are found within the Sherman Empire, they will be immediately marked and tracked continuously.

Edwan's side has also increased guards. With the lessons learned from Edwan's old father, Yang Ming has always attached great importance to Edwan's safety.

In the next three months, both brothers and sisters, Edwan and Emilia, will not leave the range of the cannons of the Ellandor Star Palace...

Lil's voice paused.

Yang Ming thought carefully, whether there were any gaps.

Kolev is guarded by Mimily, and Mimily's strength is already very good among ordinary humans.

Although 026 can't be alone now, she has the temporary authority to mobilize the Dark Star Mechanical Legion, and can also be used as an assistant of the law clone to deal with some emergencies.

"It should be fine."

Yang Ming exhaled lightly: "Go in."

This fat fish-like battleship slowly sailed into the neat dust belt.

The subtle collision sound reappeared, and the spaceship slowed down as much as possible, gradually approaching the center point.

not detected;

No question.

After they arrived at the predetermined location, a ray of light swept across, and Yang Ming and the spaceship disappeared out of thin air.

Space doesn't even have any ripples.

However, Yang Ming still lost his senses for a few seconds, and when he regained his sight, he was already in the cold, gray building complex that was filled with twilight.

The law is still conducting security checks.

The three old mechanical thinking bodies in charge here always inspect the mechanical thinking body extremely meticulously; but for a living body like Yang Ming, they just glance at it casually and finish the job.

The three-in-one figure of ranger, examiner, and gravekeeper appeared behind Yang Ming, and said slowly, "Is it just to help you transform this ship?"

"Yes," Yang Ming turned around immediately, showing a sincere smile, "Can I make a small request this time."

The examiner smiled and said, "Tell me, we will try our best to satisfy you."

"The main cannon should be more powerful," Yang Ming gestured, "The bigger the better, it would be best to add a single-person killing system, which is similar to the array cannon and the biological individual locking device."

The figure of the old mechanical thinking body was divided into three parts.

They looked at Yang Ming puzzled.

The examiner asked: "Did your upper life form put you under so much pressure?"

"Well," Yang Ming nodded honestly, "She has already started hunting Zergs to improve herself, maybe she has awakened all kinds of weird abilities, I don't have any advantage over her genetically, I can only do it in other aspects Make up."

He paused and said in a deep voice, "I really want to live to inherit this civilization."

The ranger touched his chin and thought carefully: "In their plan, you are actually an accidental product. They actually want to test whether they can cultivate new fighters."

Yang Ming raised his eyebrows, but this knowledgeable wanderer did not continue talking.

They, referring to the Kigrove team?

Or is it some other hidden force?

Or even the Faya civilization?

Yang Ming didn't have a clue for a while, but the grave guard had already exposed this topic.

"We will try our best to help you," said the gravekeeper, "but we can't promise you too much. You know our principles. We can't directly affect the ecology of the civilization of the galaxy. We are just observers."

Examiner: "The transformation of the ship for you can only be done to protect you."

Ranger: "Yes, we must follow conservation guidelines."

Yang Ming thought about it carefully, and he didn't know whether it was a short circuit of the neurons or the blessing of the soul, so he said with firm eyes:

"In my understanding of tactics, the best defense is offense."

The three old mechanical minds froze.

They seem to have readjusted their logical support.

"It makes sense," said the gravekeeper, squinting his eyes.

The examiner said: "Okay, the lesser ancient god life form we respect, next you have to enter the building in front and soak in the water of the prophet, we will let the knowledge irrigate your brain."

The ranger smiled and said: "Don't worry, you only need to be able to understand and master some basic knowledge. You can also choose some art categories for research. Every outstanding leader must know some art."

The gravekeeper sighed: "Your knowledge must be able to match the civilization you will lead in the future."

"Don't worry," the ranger said with a smile, "it is the law that carries the comprehensive technology required for the development of civilization, not you. This is the meaning of the existence of the law."

Yang Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "This means that every examiner is accompanied by a mechanical thinking body?"

The three old machines fell silent at the same time.

The examiner smiled and said:

"Okay, it's time for you to choose the direction to take on.

“What needs to be explained to you is that our civilization inheritance is divided into two parts.

“The first part is the foundation, which is the basic theory and normal technology applications that you will carry no matter which direction you choose, including the technology necessary to build a first-level civilization and develop a first-level civilization into a second-level civilization.

"Of course, there is only technology. A civilized society needs more. Political form and art are also important, but we cannot teach you those.

"The second part is extension. This is the direction you have to choose yourself. I mentioned this to you before.

“The extension part has many classifications, and it also determines where the civilization you build in the future will go.

"I can't tell you anything else.

"Lü has begun to accept the basic parts, and we will later build a larger and better-performing mastermind for her so that she can handle this massive amount of information.

"You have to choose the subsequent extension route now, then enter this building and study hard."

There was a book in the examiner's hand. The pages opened with a rustle, and a wall of light appeared in front of Yang Ming.

The wall of light seemed to contain the entire universe.

A beam of light shone forward and passed over Yang Ming's shoulder. Then the beam of light began to split continuously. In Yang Ming's eyes, it evolved into a dense and extremely lush tree-like figure.

Next to the first level of division, two words were marked in a language that Yang Ming could understand.

Above is reality;

The bottom is virtual.

Yang Ming couldn't clearly see the tree view options at the back, but he could vaguely understand that these were two completely different development paths.

Yang Ming chose truth.

The tree diagram floated backwards, and the three second-level divisions after the real one appeared in front of Yang Ming. There was a mark on the side, which was to choose two out of three.

These are three basic development directions:

Life, machinery, evolution.

Several question marks appeared on Yang Ming's head.

Shouldn't evolution be within the category of life? Aren’t there duplicates among these three options?

Why is evolution listed separately?

Yang Ming looked at the branches at the back and could only see three to four different options behind each option, going backwards step by step.

"Is there no prompt?" Yang Ming asked aloud.

There was no sound around.

Obviously, this is for him to explore and think on his own.

Yang Ming could only let his brain spin...

There must be a reason why evolution is listed separately.

Life represents basic life science related?

No, if you consider the predecessor of Omnic Twilight, the once highly developed mechanical civilization, its development path should be mechanical evolution, and the opposite is actually the evolution of life.

Thinking of this, Yang Ming probably understood the meaning of these three options.

By simply arranging and combining them, you can get three different combinations.

‘Life + machinery’ are two basic disciplines, which have better comprehensiveness, but the upper limit is lower.

Choosing 'life + evolution' means giving up the technology tree related to mechanical civilization and looking for the path of individual and collective life evolution.

Choosing the 'mechanical + evolutionary' route means giving up the technology trees related to life civilization and taking the path that this high-dimensional civilization has taken.

Rationally speaking, the 'mechanical + evolutionary' approach is definitely the most orthodox and can yield the most benefits.

But Yang Ming is a secondary ancient god life form. If he wants to know more about himself, or if he wants to run all the way on this road, then choosing the path of 'life + evolution' will naturally get the greatest help.

What if it’s ‘life + machine’?

This is more comprehensive.

Although the 'evolution' part is missing, I might not be able to explore the field of 'evolution' on my own after acquiring the relevant technology.

But Yang Ming changed his mind.

This civilization, the predecessor of Omnic Twilight, has reached the end of civilization development and thus chose to self-destruct.

Their path to mechanical evolution has been completed.

The most essential part of this inheritance is hidden behind the path of ‘evolution’.

Yang Ming raised his hand and clicked on the evolution option.

The three old mechanics who were watching Yang Ming outside all showed happy smiles.

"As expected, we should choose life evolution," the examiner smiled. "This is a path we have never tried. Although we will be a little disappointed, it is very good."

The tombkeeper said: "The path of infinite evolution of life is a path that allows individuals to ascend in dimension."

The ranger said: "I have observed twelve civilization eras. Many individuals who have embarked on this path have the potential to continue to develop, but are limited by technological limitations and cannot continue to evolve. His foundation is very good, and the secondary The ancient god's life form maintains human thinking, and he has refreshed my understanding of the human species."

"Human beings are, after all, the most perfect masterpieces they claim to be."

"He gets to choose."

In the shadow, Yang Ming raised his hand and pointed at the word 'life'.

This is actually his inevitable choice.

Keep getting stronger.

Super strength.

Become the ultimate infantryman capable of taking on a fleet of ships.

Can……

Yang Ming retracted his fingers slightly.

He stared at the two words in front of him, and life and machinery seemed to have a little more weight.

After all, there is an upper limit to personal evolution. The ceiling of individual combat power is the ancient god life form. Weren't they also wiped out by the Sherman Empire?

I don't have that much time to evolve myself to the position of the ancient god's life form.

In more than twenty years at most, the second assessment of the home planet is about to begin.

Mechanical evolution, infinite legion.

Even if you don't engage in mechanical ascension on the road ahead of mechanical evolution, if you continue on this road, you will definitely be able to obtain a sufficiently powerful military force.

His most important enemy now was the Valkyrie, yes, but it wasn't just the Valkyrie.

The Ninth Scourge...

Two or four competing planets with last place elimination...

Parents who were engulfed by fire in a peaceful life...

That annoying little girl...

Yang Ming slowly withdrew his fingers, staring at the words of life.

In the next second, he pressed his finger on the word Mechanism, and Mechanism and Evolution were lit up at the same time, and the tree diagram took a big step backward.

Yang Ming clenched his fists and loosened them again, his gaze became firm again.

Yes, this is the path he chose.

Whether he can evolve or not, he can fight on his own in the future, but what he wants now is an invincible fleet, forming a force capable of countering a powerful country.

If there is another trial similar to the Ninth Calamity...

I brushed it alone!

A golden light flickered ahead, and the two-level tree diagram was lit up, followed by dozens of subdivisions, with multiple-choice questions appearing inside.

"Can you give me some hints?"

Yang Ming asked again.

The three old machines outside were silent for a while, and finally spoke out almost at the same time:

"certainly."

"it's OK now."

Yang Ming heaved a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that he had chosen something wrong.

So, after a few galaxy hours, Yang Ming walked into the triangular door in front of him dizzily, under the watchful eyes of the three old machines, he slowly lay down in the mercury-like special fluid, and his body sank into the pool Inside.

The three old machines looked at each other.

"The last examiner chose life and machinery..."

"Forget about that guy," muttered the gravekeeper, "I see a ray of light in this guy that I have never seen before. It is the ray of hope."

The examiner smiled and said: "I'm right, he loves machinery, he likes to get along with us, he's such a nice little guy."

"Give more firepower to his ship, and don't really get killed by that humanoid ancient god life form."

"Uh, will this anger the Faya civilization?"

"It's what they want from us, not what we need from them. If they can destroy our entrance, then we will open up another one."

"Don't be afraid, they are only level 5.5."

"It makes sense, but now that they have mastered the energy of the large galaxy cluster, we still have to live in peace with them. We are just afterimages."

Three old machines started chattering by the pool.

Yang Ming sank slowly in the pool, his whole body had no perception of the outside world, waves of information impacted his brain, changing his perception of the universe.
