Along with Edmund's solemn declaration, the bloody crests of all adventurers simultaneously sounded warning sounds:
"Warning, warning, the space rules have changed. The space return channel cannot be opened before the death of the Sith Emperor."
"This change does not meet the needs of the city and has constituted an actual ultra vires act."
"Emergency mission: Kill the intruder Edmund Dane before the death of the Sith Emperor, correct the rules, complete the mission, and receive a reward of one million blood points, which will be distributed based on contribution!"
The adventurers were stunned at the same time.
This...what on earth happened?
The subsequent rule changes and mission issuance have left adventurers completely confused about the situation.
However, as if the excitement was not enough, at this moment, a huge echo suddenly exploded in the sky, and countless battleships sank to the ground at the same time.
They were previously restrained in the sky by Edmund and unable to move. Now that they were freed from the trap, they immediately displayed the majestic aura that an imperial army should have.
One after another, giant ships in the sky fell from the sky. Before they even landed, a large number of machine soldiers rushed out of the belly compartment.
They jumped from the air and rushed towards the adventurers on the hillside before they could stabilize themselves.
"What...what's going on? Why did the Emperor launch a sudden attack?" Some people still didn't understand.
"They have been attacking us, idiot, have you forgotten the fighter plane bombing before?"
"But then they stopped."
"Probably halftime."
"Maybe it's a resumption of transmission?" Some people still joked nervously.
But they soon stopped laughing.
As the first battleship officially landed, a large number of heavy tanks rushed out of the battleship, followed by a large number of clone soldiers and huge three-legged robots.
This kind of three-legged robot is the kind of super huge mechanical body that appeared in the second part of Star Wars. Each one is as big as a building.
Then there are the Sith warriors.
Countless machines and soldiers of all kinds that they had never seen before were pouring towards the hillside, making the adventurers all dumbfounded.
The previous lack of movement from the emperor made the adventurers greatly underestimate the situation they faced. However, when this huge army really showed its power, they realized that they had been fighting beside a giant dragon...
"Oh, my God..." Some adventurers began to exclaim.
"What are you still doing? Get ready to fight!" Cliff shouted first: "Eva, tell the Red Police Corps to turn their guns and aim at those machine soldiers!"
The remaining Red Police regiments turned their guns one after another, and the battles continued, causing serious damage to this powerful force. Now there are not many troops left.
In the past, everyone felt that the attack on the Purgatory Sect was not harsh enough, but now they began to feel that the attack was too hard, and they seemed so powerless in front of the huge imperial army.
The Sith Emperor allows adventurers to truly understand what a big scene is - hundreds of battleships, tens of thousands of robots, tens of thousands of clone soldiers, and thousands of tanks and artillery. In comparison
, even the Red Police Corps in its heyday looked inadequate in front of such a large-scale force.
Perhaps Meryl was the only one who was not moved by it. She stood on the hillside, her clothes fluttering, as if she had returned to the galactic era, fighting the endless Zerg.
Hong Lang and the others were feeling better, and Wen Wen murmured: "It seems like we have returned to the time when the four clans were fighting for hegemony."
This scene really looks a bit like the original Burning Legion siege battle, except that the Emperor's individual soldiers are lower in strength, but have more numbers and stronger firepower.
"Are you kidding? How did things become so messed up? What should we do?" the adventurers shouted one after another.
The sudden changes left the adventurers unsure of what to do. Instead, the emperor used rumbling artillery fire to help them make a decision.
Boom boom boom boom!
Large areas of artillery fire began to destroy this poor hillside again.
"Flash!" the adventurers shouted and fled.
The recovery of their attributes allowed their strength to finally return to normal levels, and they no longer needed to be as embarrassed as before. However, the firepower from the Imperial Army was more fierce than that of the Imperial Army, and smoke from explosions was rising from almost every inch of the land.
A large number of robot soldiers fearlessly charged towards the mountain. Countless laser beams weaved a huge energy net in the sky. The adventurers were like fish swimming in the net, with nowhere to escape.
"Shen Yi, Shen Yi! Did you see it?" Wen Wenwen shouted wildly at Shen Yi.
——————————
Leaping in from the hole corroded by the dark force field, Shen Yi had reached the next level of the battleship.
He ran quickly in the passage, but the words that the black warrior had said before echoed in his mind.
"You are too busy...so busy that you have no time to calm down and think..."
Strange, why would Black Warrior say this?
For some reason, Shen Yi always felt that there was something strange in Black Warrior's words.
In fact, the entire confrontation gave Shen Yi a strange feeling - the black warrior had no intention of killing him.
He didn't feel murderous.
As an adventurer who has been on the battlefield for a long time and has experienced countless dangerous battles, he is extremely sensitive to the enemy's murderous intention.
If this is the sixth sense, then this is the sixth sense that all adventurers must have. At best, some people are stronger and some are weaker.
So far, perhaps the strongest one in this regard is Asura. His sixth sense of life and death safety has risen to the level of intuition or even instinct. Shen Yi is far from Asura's level, but at least he can still judge the opponent. The will to kill him.
The black warrior's will to kill himself is very weak, so weak that it is almost nonexistent.
This is how Shen Yi feels, although he can't explain why.
Perhaps because of this, the words from the Black Warrior confused him even more.
He always felt that there was something wrong here.
"Go away, you don't need to do anything here!"
"You are angry...I can feel the anger, anxiety, and helplessness in your heart."
"Didn't Ahsoka tell you that negative emotions are the source of dark power?"
Each of these words seems to have a special meaning, but it also seems to have nothing at all.
Suddenly, another sentence jumped into his mind.
"Even if Ahsoka didn't tell you, wouldn't Obi-Wan tell you?"
Obi-Wan?
Shen Yi's pupils suddenly dilated.
Damn it!
Why didn't you think of this?
Obi-Wan, how did Darth Vader know that he was in contact with him?
Obi-Wan has been hiding in the small town of Anchord, and it is impossible for the Emperor to know his whereabouts.
Darth Vader said Obi-Wan's name, which means... he saw Obi-Wan!
He saw Obi-Wan fighting alongside them with his own eyes.
Then he should have also seen the little Luke that Obi-Wan has been trying to protect!
Yes!
Shen Yi almost shouted.
This is what Black Warrior wants to tell himself.
He knows Luke!
He knows little Luke is here!
Shen Yi almost shouted excitedly.
If Darth Vader speaks Luke's name openly, then he may really not care about his son.
But now he doesn't.
He didn't even allow himself to say anything about Luke, which was what he was trying to attack himself for.
This shows that he has scruples.
Apart from one person, who else in this world can make him have any scruples?
After thinking about this, Shen Yi had it all figured out.
Luke is not completely meaningless to Darth Vader, and Darth Vader has not completely lost his humanity.
He still cares about his children.
Yes, in the last part of Star Wars, wasn't it the Darth Vader's conscience that helped Luke kill the Sith Emperor?
Thinking of this, Shen Yi became excited.
No wonder Darth Vader says he is too busy.
He was reminding himself to calm down and think carefully.
Yes, I am so busy these days that I often don’t have time to calm down and think.
When a person's status is high, the affairs he faces become more complicated, the crisis increases, he spends more time fighting, and less time thinking.
Perhaps, it is necessary to slow down and think carefully.
It was at this moment that he received a prompt from the bloody emblem.
"Shen Yi, have you seen it?"
"Yes, I saw it." Shen Yi replied.
"Something is wrong, everything has changed!" Wen Rou continued.
"That's right, we are being attacked by the emperor!" Hong Lang shouted.
"Shut up, Lang Qiu, that's not what I mean, let's fight your battle!" Rou Wen kicked Hong Lang away.
Compared with the critical situation at hand, Wen Wen is more concerned about the extraordinary reminder from the coat of arms. After all, for them who have experienced an emergency mission, they clearly understand that an emergency mission from the city usually only means one thing. ——Posing a threat to the city.
The question is why is it a threat?
Edmund's use of the Great Prophecy did not pose a threat, activating the field did not pose a threat, Michelle's awakening did not pose a threat, so many actual actions did not pose a threat, so why did a rule change pose a threat?
Shen Yi walked quickly in the passage, his mind spinning rapidly.
After thinking for a while, he said: "I want to talk to Cliff."
If you want to understand all this, you have to talk to Cliff after all.
Wen Wenwen quickly found Cliff and threw a communicator to Cliff: "Next, Shen Yi wants to talk to you!"
Cliff took it and said, "Shen Yi, what's the matter?"
"Tell me, do you know what happened about Edmund setting up new rules against the Sith Emperor?"
"I don't know. I only know that he changed the rules and released the emperor's **, and wanted to use them to destroy us! Maybe he added this rule to prevent us from escaping."
"If that's the case, why did the city suddenly go to war and issue emergency missions?"
"That's the problem, I'm wondering too!"
"There is a problem here." Shen Yi muttered to himself.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Tell me, what did Edmund say to you before this? Any strange behavior?"
Cliff sighed: "Yes, somewhat."
He did not hide anything and directly told Shen Yi everything Edmund had said before.
Shen Yi tasted what Edmund had said over and over again, and could not find any clues except that he felt that Edmund seemed to have been prepared for all this.
This made him feel very strange: "There must be something wrong, Cliff, tell me who Edmund is."
"A fanatical believer, a careerist, and a militant. I have never looked down on him. Although he is very powerful, he is based on the inheritance of the Dane family rules for hundreds of years. Without these rules, he is nothing! "
"What about you? You don't seem to have the power of rules, and you don't seem to be interested in it."
"Yeah, I'm not interested!" Cliff replied, "Because it doesn't make any sense!"
"It makes no sense? How could it be?" Shen Yi was stunned. The power of rules is earth-shaking and overwhelming. It can be said that it is omnipotent. It is precisely because Edmund has mastered too much power of rules that he has great prophecy. It's so terrifying that even the fortress giants can't deal with it. Even if Cliff has the Polar Ice Phoenix, he doesn't dare to face Edmund alone. Now Cliff says that the power of rules is meaningless?
"Yes, it makes no sense. Have you forgotten what the ultimate purpose of our existence in this world is?"
"Go out of the city, resist the Zerg, and become the guardian of the city."
"Yes, but tell me, do the rules mean anything outside the city?"
As soon as Cliff said these words, Shen Yi suddenly realized.
Although the power of rules is powerful, it is ultimately based on the city's control of space. Its essence is like national law, so it only has meaning in this country.
When Chinese officials go to the United States, they have no power at all.
Of course, if you master the power of the source, you can influence it beyond the city.
Because the space outside the city is actually a space where dreams come true.
If you expand the entire world of singularity and look at it, you will find that this is actually a unique space with rings within rings.
The innermost space is the core of the singularity. Due to its infinite collapse, the Queres people can never enter. This is also where the power of dreams come true is strongest.
No one knows how much space there is between the singularity and the city, but the closest known place is the mission world.
Further out, there is the city.
Outside the city, there is the undeveloped space occupied by the Zerg. It still has the power of dreams, but there is no rule system of the Quires people.
It's another world there!
Because of this, the power of urban rules is completely meaningless in outer space.
Among the four major districts in the city, the reason why the North District and the East District are recognized as the strongest is not because they are the strongest within the city, but because they are outside the city.
The North District has long known that the power of rules has no meaning in outer space, so they never take this path. Because of this, their strength in outer space is unmatched.
The East District focuses on its original power and can have some influence in outer space.
In comparison, the West and South districts appear much weaker in this regard.
They can call the shots in the city, but after becoming the guardians of the city, their performance is often mediocre.
"So, Edmund's great prophecy will become useless if it reaches outer space?"
"Yes!" Cliff replied firmly: "Don't talk about the Nine Black Dragons, he may not even be able to summon a black snake."
"Has anyone used to focus on the power of rules at all costs like him?"
"No, Edmund is a weirdo. Many people in the church were puzzled by Edmund's focus on the power of rules, thinking that he only wanted to be strong for the moment and ignored the future."
"Is that so... By the way, is Edmund about to leave the fifth difficulty level?"
"It's hard to say. The world of the fifth difficulty is different from the other four difficulties. It is a joint attack and zoned defense. It is very simple for the generals to leave the fifth difficulty. They just need to complete certain strategy tasks. As long as the task is completed, they can leave at any time. In
During this period, the generals moved relatively freely."
"What if someone stalls for time?"
"Delay is allowed, but it shall not exceed one year at the latest."
"How long was Edmund on difficulty five?"
"It's only been a little over half a year. With his strength, if he wanted to leave the fifth difficulty level, he could have done it a long time ago. If he wanted to delay it, he could delay it for half a year. Because of this, I don't have the patience to wait any longer."
"Do you think he will continue to delay for half a year?"
"Of course, if he attacks with his current strength, he can be all-powerful in the mission world, but outside the mission world, he will be just a crawler."
"Obviously, you are wrong." Shen Yi replied.
"What?" Cliff was confused.
Shen Yi said leisurely: "I think I kind of know what he wants to do."
Cliff's eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean..."
"If I remember correctly, the world of Star Wars, even in the entire bloody city, is an extremely difficult world, right?"
"Yes, because only the mission of StarCraft is used as a simulated battlefield in the fifth difficulty level, many worlds that are eligible to be placed in the fifth difficulty level have also been downgraded to the fourth difficulty level. Therefore, the fourth difficulty level mission world has the largest change in difficulty level."
Shen Yi continued: "The reason why Star Wars is so difficult is that, in addition to the powerful imperial fleet, there is another major force..."
"The Sith Lord!" Cliff blurted out, and it suddenly dawned on him: "He wants the power of the Sith Lord! Oh, my God...he's crazy!"
"I guess he has been waiting for this day for more than a day or two." Shen Yi said lightly.
