Chapter 18 Space Station Crisis
Chapter 18 Space Station Crisis
Upon hearing this, Himeko looked surprised and asked in confusion, "Reprint? What do you mean?"
Eve smiled slightly, then slowly extended a slender, fair hand. At that moment, a dazzling light suddenly shone from her hand, streaking across the night sky like a brilliant shooting star.
As the light gathered and condensed, it eventually formed a small point of light in Eve's palm. Then, this point of light began to expand rapidly, transforming in the blink of an eye into an exquisitely crafted card.
The card emitted a faint glow and seemed to be engraved with complex and mysterious patterns and symbols, giving it an air of endless mystery and power at first glance.
A brand new light cone has been forged!
Himeko looked at the newly formed light cone in Eve's hand, and a look of amazement flashed across her face.
"Can you make light cones?"
"It's very simple. I already understand the principle of the light cone. It seals combat experience and memories into a card. When the user uses it, they will gain the experience from the light cone to fight."
"The principle is similar to that of canning, but unfortunately, none of the people here are wearing void terminals."
Eve shook her head slightly, her tone regretful.
Compared to knowledge about canned goods, light cones are still a step behind.
After all, the light cone can be considered equipment, with the function of being replaced at any time, but it is not in one's own mind and can only be borrowed. Once the light cone is lost, the ability to fight is lost.
But canned knowledge is different; once absorbed through the virtual terminal, it truly becomes your own.
Whether it's knowledge, theory, or combat experience, canned knowledge can do it all.
"Canned knowledge...?" Although she didn't hear what Eve was saying, Himeko was still shocked.
"Then what about the memories you used when you created it?" Himeko continued to ask.
Even if one mastered the art of making light cones, it would still require a vast amount of memory; it would take a person an entire lifetime of memorization to create just one light cone.
Therefore, cherish every piece of light cone; they represent very important memories for their original owners.
Miss Eve may feel like she has lived for a very long time and experienced a lot, but her memory and experience reserves should not be enough to support the production of so many light cones, right?
“Here.” Eve stretched out her finger, a green light emanating from its tip.
"The Void System contains everything that happens in a world, including life experiences and combat abilities."
The Void system is built upon the World Tree of Teyvat, and naturally includes all the data recorded within the World Tree.
"So that's how it is..." Himeko calmed down and looked at Eve again.
Perhaps this is why she was able to become an Envoy of Knowledge even though she wasn't on the path of [knowledge].
She harbors too many secrets.
Himeko shook her head slightly at this moment.
Neither that magical void system, nor that powerful force, nor that canned knowledge, were things she could comprehend.
Just then, a piercing and urgent alarm suddenly rang out in the previously quiet and peaceful space station! The sound was like a sharp sword, instantly piercing the air and striking the eardrums of everyone.
Aista's heart tightened, and she reacted with lightning speed. She quickly turned her gaze to the virtual screen in front of her, which was now filled with a dense array of red "warning" signs.
"Warning, warning, intruder! Automatic defense system activated. Self-propelled electromagnetic railgun initiating attack..."
The rapid hum of electronic machinery filled everyone's ears, and all the technicians tensed up instantly.
"What happened?" Estella asked urgently.
"It's the Legion, they've invaded again," the technicians immediately reported.
“How is that possible?” Estella asked hesitantly.
The system has clearly calculated the legion's troop strength, so they shouldn't have any remaining troops to attack the space station, right?
At this moment, the system warning sounded again.
"Warning! Warning! Space barrier breached! Optical radar disabled! Infrared radar disabled! Self-propelled railgun destroyed! First line of defense breached..."
"Warning, warning..."
"How is this possible?" Estella slammed her hands on the table, her eyes filled with disbelief. "The first line of defense of the automated defense system has been breached?"
"Bring up the live feed!" Estella said solemnly.
"Yes, stationmaster." Upon hearing the instruction, the technician did not dare to delay for a moment, quickly sat down in front of the control panel, and began to operate the keyboard and buttons with lightning speed.
Before long, after a series of complex data inputs and system calculations were completed, the monitoring footage outside the space station was successfully retrieved and clearly displayed on the large screen.
Everyone stared intently, and couldn't help but gasp—
A gigantic monster was wreaking havoc outside the space station. Its outstretched wings blotted out the sky, as if they could engulf the entire universe.
Its terrifying appearance is even more chilling, with sharp fangs protruding from its gaping maw, gleaming coldly, sending shivers down one's spine.
The scales covering its entire body were as hard as steel, reflecting a cold light, making it seem as if no weapon could harm it.
"This is... a Doomsday Beast??" Aista's eyes were filled with shock.
"How is this possible? How did the Doomsday Beast appear here?"
Himeko, standing to the side, also had a very serious expression; she knew exactly what the Doomsday Beast represented.
That terrifying destructive power can be described as the legion's sharpest blade.
"Can it be resisted?" Estella asked anxiously.
The technician immediately replied, "We're testing it. The automated defense system has deployed a second line of defense."
The moment the words left his mouth, the system issued another red alert.
"Warning, warning! The second line of defense has been breached. The third line of defense is being activated..."
Estella asked in confusion, "What's going on? The Doomsday Beasts haven't even reached the second line of defense yet, have they?"
"Station Chief Estella, the space station is under attack from the left rear."
"what?"
Just then, another image was displayed.
What appeared on the screen was the same terrifying monster that looked exactly the same as before, and it was brazenly appearing at the back of the space station.
Upon witnessing this scene, Aista's face instantly froze, as if time itself had stood still. Her eyes widened, and she murmured incredulously, "How is this possible? A second Doomsday Beast?"
