Chapter 921 The Voice in the Flame

Can energy stones be counterfeit? If the answer is yes, where did the Third Committee acquire this technology?

The pyramid-shaped crystal with a diameter of two meters floats up and down at an extremely slow speed. The crystal chassis is a supporting device for flowing water-like light. The light blue soft light illuminates the entire space, not to mention bright. Clear and distant like starlight.

It turned out that the Iron Xun outside was only used to carry the peripherals of this device. The Nemesis-class tactical destroyer of the Dragon Whisperer damaged the Iron Xun, but did not cause fatal damage to the crystal. The device was still operating, but Most of the energy escapes through the holes on the surface of the Xun, so that the energy fluctuation becomes very low.

He took a few steps forward, walked to the foot of the crystal suspended in mid-air, looked around, and then summoned a Goliath robot, jumped onto the shoulder of the big guy with his strength, and jumped onto the supporting chassis under the crystal.

A wind passed through the holes in the iron xun, producing strange and low whimpers.

He didn't care whether the voice was unusual or not. He walked around the pyramid-shaped crystal, and finally walked to the side facing away from the Goliath robot, stretched out his palm, and pressed it against a strange pattern.

He didn't recognize that weird pattern, it was completely different from all kinds of modern or ancient symbols under the human civilization system, and it wasn't an Epsilon rune, maybe it was the characters of the T star people.

He just thinks that this thing should be a mechanism, similar to the touchpad of human electronic equipment, which can unlock and activate the crystal. Emma dared to do this because Emma told him that the energy level inside was not high and it was difficult to pose a threat to him.

However, the moment the palm touched the crystal, the Ipsilon rune, which was in a static state, trembled violently, and slowly appeared on the forehead, emitting alternating strong and weak golden light.

At this moment, before he could react, his consciousness was forcibly pulled into the system space.

Same as the previous process of expanding new elements, the emblems of the four clans dimmed, the base selection interface disappeared, and a line of characters flashed quickly in a black screen.

"power, on."

"system, restart, ok!"

"init..."

"prepare, dates..."

"Update...20%...30%...90%..."

"release."

"run,

now!"

"..."

With the next breath, there was a buzzing sound, the emblems of the four clans lit up, and the base selection interface reappeared in front of him. The system released the cursor, waiting for him to make a choice.

Are there new elements to be unlocked? The Ranger-class assault ship has just completed the expansion of the new project, and now it is the turn of the Wuzhu-class armored ship. Unfortunately, he has no time to detect the new elements. The originally dim crystals suddenly burst into dazzling glare, and those textures turned into a cross lightning. , skimming across the surface of the crystal.

He was taken aback by such a change, and jumped directly from the two-story support base, looking solemnly at the vision that was happening in front of him.

Perhaps it was the light that illuminated the hollow that shot out along the gap in the iron xun, piercing the dark night and waking up Chen Jian who was waiting outside. Ma Runjia's communication equipment sent the deputy head's anxious shout.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." He promised, and at the same time prevented Chen Jian from entering Tie Xun.

In such a narrow environment, if there is any danger, it is absolutely impossible for him to take care of the life safety of the deputy head, so, rather than letting Chen Jian in, he hopes that the other party will stay outside.

Just as he told the deputy head not to be nervous, and he was safe and sound, the light that filled the entire space suddenly faded and softened, and a circle of flames spread out on the surface of the crystal.

The originally cold and hard crystal actually ignited. Coupled with the round base, it looks like a burning torch from a distance. It's just... Although its flames were fierce, they didn't make a deafening roar because of the rushing wind blowing through the hole.

It burns very quietly, so quiet that it seems not to be unrestrained in this world, but to be transpiring in another world.

Tang Fang squinted his eyes, looking at the dark fire, feeling a chill in his heart like a coming storm.

He had an illusion... Perhaps it is more accurate to use intuition to describe it. The reckless behavior just now activated the dormant crystal, as if a very strange life form woke up from sleep and was staring at him with cold eyes.

It is in that flame, ancient and mysterious.

"You... are... that Tang Fang?" The sound of a strong wind tearing paper rang in his ears.

The flame on the surface of the crystal oscillated with the pitch of the sound, the light and shadow on the surrounding walls shook back and forth, and the wind blowing from the hole in the iron xun passed by without causing any waves.

Tang Fang's face was serious, and he stared at the three light spots slowly forming inside the flame coat.

"What the hell are you...a person?" He originally wanted to say what the hell you are, but seeing that this flame is very similar to the psionic flame in the ruins of the Epsilon, he swallowed the word "something" again. Go back and replace it with "people".

The scene in front of me is really strange. The crystal is somewhat similar to the energy stone, but it has a fake atmosphere. The flame that just rises is very similar to the energy flame in the Ipsilon ruins, but it is different. It is more illusory and unreal. .

He couldn't understand what was going on at all. Did this huge iron xun really come from the Wuzhu-class armored ship, and did it really belong to the Third Committee?

The voice from the flames didn't answer his question, but just said to himself: "You came faster than we thought."

"them"? What does "he" mean by saying this? If Tie Xun is really the core of the Wuzhu-class armored ship, doesn't it mean that "he" deliberately turned the energy core into a bolide and smashed it on the land of Lachesis, in order to The only thing is to lure yourself here?

"Are you waiting for me?"

"I’m waiting for you……"

From the tone of "him", it was impossible to tell whether the waiting was full of malice or good intentions. That voice was like a flat asphalt road, without any ups and downs, and naturally it was impossible to be full of emotions.

He frowned and asked, "What am I waiting for?"

The flame flickered, and the voice came slowly: "Look at you."

"Look at me?" He was very puzzled, the mysterious existence in the flames was waiting for him to return to Dilar just to look at him? MD sent more than 30 warships, almost destroying his hard work, just to take a look at him, how can there be such an unreasonable thing in the world.

"Hahahaha...so that's how it is, so that's how it is...those guys..."

"He" is laughing, the flame is swaying, and the wind and sand are ups and downs.

"Who are you? A member of the Third Committee, or a member of the Supreme Security Council?" He always felt that the owner of that voice came to him for a purpose, and it was of great importance.

"The Third Committee...hehe...try to live and witness the future...human beings."

The voice faded away slowly, and even the flame coat surrounding the crystal gradually dimmed, and finally disappeared. The pyramid crystal finally consumed the last bit of energy, and broke into countless tiny crystal slag with a bang, and poured it into the hole of the iron xun. Blown by the incoming wind, it turns into dust and rises up.

The chassis supporting the crystal lost its buoyancy and fell to the gravel-covered ground, making a dull sound.

Who is "he" and why did he come to see himself? What kind of emotions are expressed in the following words?

Was "he" someone from the Third Committee? "He" neither admitted nor denied it.

Also, who are those guys in the mouth of "him"?

Let yourself work hard to live, to witness the future...and then call yourself a human being, which means that "he" is not a human being.

Since it's not a human being, then who would "he" be, the Epsilonian? Star people?

This was the first real alien he had come into contact with, and he just ran up to him and babbled in vernacular, talking to himself like a psychopath.

Why? Is the Iron Xun something from the Third Committee?

Could it be a message from the Dragon Whisperer?

His mind was in a mess, and countless questions wrapped himself in a cocoon like silk, and he couldn't figure out the crux of the matter.

Just when he was troubled by many questions in his mind, Ma Runjia's built-in communicator sounded Chen Jian's call again. It turned out that the deputy captain saw that the light from the hole in the iron xun suddenly faded, and he couldn't figure out what was going on below. Whether the boss is safe or not, and he did not dare to act rashly, causing him trouble in the past, so he could only ask patiently.

"I'm fine, don't worry, I'll go out and meet you now." After replying, he took back the Goliath armed robot and replaced it with an SCV, and gave it an order to check the base of the crystal, then he turned around and went back along the same path.

There were all kinds of noises on the road, and I asked Emma what she thought when she went to the doctor in a hurry.

The robot adjutant's response was: "Insufficient intelligence, no opinion."

"..." Tang Fang could only resist the urge to smash "her" and asked another question: "Which base is the unlocked item expanded by the crystal?"

"Commander, according to the data recorded in the system log, change the entry to the address of the memory pool. There are two extensions, located in the Terran base and the Protoss base."

"The two... are still the Terran base and the Protoss base? The same as the wreckage of the Safari-class fast assault ship?"

"Does 'he' have anything to do with the Third Committee..."

Emma was directly silent about his question.

Puzzled, he could only temporarily put the question aside and focus on the human base, looking for the unlocking item Emma said.

Select the scv, press the building menu hotkey, and find that no new buildings appear.

Remembering that the Archangel was unlocked by the Hunter-class fast assault ship, he turned his attention to the starry sky base again. The first menu bar remained the same, and only the Archangel item was highlighted in the second menu bar. The battlecruisers of other specifications remained the same. is locked in gray.

He frowned, and clicked on the military production buildings one by one, but found no new elements.

"Hey, where is it?" Finally, he turned the target to the scientific research building, and he clicked in turn, and suddenly found two new research items in the menu bar on the right side of the engineering station --- "Upgrade the Shrike Fort Bunker" and " Fortification".

"Instantaneous automatic tracking" and "fine steel frame" have been developed as bunker-related technologies in the battle mode. Unexpectedly, the new project of the human race that Emma mentioned this time is the battle technology of Wings of Liberty.

"Upgrade Shrike Fort Bunker" is to add a double-mounted turret to the original base of the bunker, so that even if no infantry is stationed, it can still attack.

"Fortress Reinforcement" can add 150 points of HP to the bunker on the basis of the original HP.

These two upgrades are useful if you are in the Wings of Liberty campaign mode, but you have to choose one or the other. Unexpectedly, Sister Logic really took good care of him, allowing these two technologies to appear on the menu bar of the engineering station at the same time.

But what's the use!

The bunker can't get out of the system space at all, and these two upgrade items are completely tasteless.

Complaints are nothing but complaints, he still casually sent two technologies into the research sequence.

After spending 6,000 crystals and 6,000 gas, watching the completion of two technological researches, a turret was added above the heavy armored bunker next to the planetary fortress.

What's the use? He sighed. When he was about to leave the Terran base and go to the Protoss base to check the new project, Emma suddenly stopped him, "Commander, there is a new change in the system. The expansion module of the bunker has been activated."

"The expansion module of the bunker?" He froze for a moment, then clicked on the bunker, and found a golden yellow icon on the right menu bar, very similar to the ghost's Mobius reactor upgrade item.

Move the cursor over, and the words "data synchronization has been completed" will be displayed.

This reminded him of the scene he had encountered in the Brionac system, and then switched the cursor to the ghost academy, and there was also this pattern in the lower right corner of the menu bar.

"Another one?" He asked, "Emma, ​​is there still no relevant information?"

"Yes, Commander. Insufficient authority, unable to query relevant information."

Sister Logic not only plays logic, but also plays mystery in many cases. Although every time she digs a hole, she will fill it in, but it really makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

There is no way, he can only leave from the human race base and enter the god race base.

There was no new unlock item in the building menu bar of the probe, so he went to check the production building again, and found a new icon near the giant elephant in the production menu bar of the mechanical table.

Visually, it's not that different from the Zealot, except that the skin texture is more mottled, there are red veins on its body, and it doesn't have psionic blades on its wrists.

It has a very arrogant name --- Stone Statue Fanatic.

Tang Fang thought of the big guy he met in the battle of Wings of Liberty in the level of grabbing the artifact... There is a price to pay for tomb robbery, and there is always a pair of eyes hiding in the dark watching your every move.

Thinking about Pajamas, Tauren Marines and Murloc Marines, he was relieved again. It seems that Sister Logic is determined to move all the things in the map editor to the system.

Gargoyle fanatics' notes are simple, providing only two component analyses.

1. Double-eyed death beam cannon: The eyes of the stone statue fanatic are made of two psionic crystals. By erupting the energy contained inside, they can create two beams of high-energy photon rays to form a fatal attack on the target.

2. Titan armor: Compared with the alloy shell of the giant elephant, the stone statue fanatics have thicker armor. Their body is composed of a kind of Sarnaga raw stone, which can conduct the nether energy to the maximum extent, which makes them look It is heavy, but unexpectedly has extraordinary mobility. Although limited by the materials that make up the body, it cannot condense the psionic blade like a fanatic, but their body itself is a weapon. When it runs, the earth will Trembling with it, anything in its path crumbles and disintegrates. (To be continued.)
