In the rest area of the World Tree Temple, Yzaks looked at Hao Ren who was slumped on the sofa like a salted fish with a smile: "You guys went there for a long time. You thought you would be back in a few days.
It ended up being a trip for more than a month.”
"Lahrien's matter is too complicated. My biggest problem right now is that I can't even write a report," Hao Ren said with a look of despair. "Fortunately, everything was resolved smoothly in the end, and the digging
The arrival of this incredible baby has also given Leah a long-term goal.”
"I saw what you brought back," Yzaks nodded. "I heard it was going to be sent to the Genesis Engine assembly factory."
Hao Ren hummed: "That's right. This way, the Creation Engine is completed, and the biggest trump card needed to attack the Dark Realm is ready. But having said that, I didn't expect you to stay here. I thought
You are resting at home as usual."
Yzaks smiled, looked at the Nangong brothers and sisters who were chatting with Lily not far away, and jumped up and down playing with Elizabeth, and shrugged: "It's pointless to stay on earth all day long, we come here every now and then.
Let's take a look. We have been fully involved in various events in the Dream Plane in the past few years, and we know the situation relatively well. Salaman and his Guardian Legion have just returned, and they often come to us to inquire about some things."
As he said that, he showed a helpless expression: "Of course there is another reason to walk the cat... She goes crazy if she doesn't go out for three days. Instead of letting her go to the city to cause trouble, it's better to let her come here and have a hard time.
.”
Hao Ren glanced blankly at the cat girl who had climbed to the top of the giant vine not far away, feeling incredible: "This guy is not used to living in the human world yet? I remember that a while ago she even went to the street to buy groceries and herself
I have learned how to go shopping for clothes in the city..."
"That's because she suppressed her instinct," Vivian's voice came from behind Hao Ren, "Obviously, she spent money to buy things just to complete the task and have small fish to eat, but other than that, she didn't hold back at all when she was messing around.
After all, he was a wildcat back then.”
While he was talking, the cat girl who was climbing along the giant vines inside the World Tree in the distance suddenly rushed over and quickly circled around Hao Ren: "What about me, Meow? What about me?
Meow?"
Hao Ren smoothly pressed Cat Girl's head: "Yes, yes, you are everywhere, your ears are as sharp as Lily's... Hmm?!"
An indescribable heart palpitation suddenly struck Hao Ren, and Hao Ren couldn't help but stop what he was doing.
Not just him, everyone in the temple felt the impact at this moment. Everyone, including the busy and confused goblins, stopped involuntarily and looked around in confusion.
This kind of heart palpitations cannot be described in words, and you can't tell where it comes from. At that moment, you feel as if you are in a dark and chaotic world. The world is shrouded in fog, and you are completely unaware of the surrounding situation, but you know it clearly.
I feel that somewhere deep in the fog, an unprecedentedly terrifying and powerful monster has awakened, and it has noticed all the creatures in the fog...
The next second, the heart palpitations began to subside quickly, and a ray of light appeared in the hall. After the light dissipated, Leah stood in front of everyone.
Yzaks frowned and looked at the Goddess of Creation: "Could that be..."
"The Lord of Madness's 'fetal movement'," Leah said quickly, "the early warning device I set up in the dark realm sent a warning signal to the entire universe."
Hao Ren quickly stopped sucking the cat, and his previous lazy aura completely disappeared. He quickly stood up and grabbed the data terminal next to him: "Go to the communications hall!"
The communication hall is also located inside the World Tree Temple, but its structure and style are completely different from other places in the temple. It is full of light blue crystals and silver-white alloy frames, displaying various Xiling-style facilities and equipment. Compared with
It is said that it is part of the temple, but it is more like an extension of the Crystal Core Research Station, and in fact it is indeed the case.
The communication hall is a projection of part of the Crystal Core Research Station. Its function is to integrate the Crystal Core Research Station and the various facilities set up by Hao Ren in the Dream Plane into the same data link and communicate with the world.
Tree Temple and various information networks left behind by the Goddess of Creation to establish connections. Various temporary data interfaces that Hao Ren previously set up in the World Tree Temple have now been integrated into this hall, and its existence,
It has also truly improved the execution efficiency and stability of each project.
In the hall, Hao Ren saw the holographic images of Asuman and Remendusa. Apparently, the two of them had been waiting online the moment the "universal warning signal" turned on.
After Hao Ren entered the hall, several other holographic devices were activated one after another, and Muru, Loken, Salaman and others appeared on the communication screen.
"Intelligence has confirmed that the Dark Abyss is sending out a first-level warning signal. The warning signal comes from the oldest defense system set up by the goddess," Asuman's voice sounded first. It is responsible for monitoring the Dark Abyss cage and regularly communicating with the Night Watch.
The task of contact is to be the first to report the situation. "In addition, the night watchman has been contacted urgently to confirm that the defense layer where the system is located has been completely silent after sending out the first-level warning signal, and is now in a state of complete loss of contact."
Leah frowned: "I can confirm that the defense layer is completely destroyed... Where are the night watchmen stationed on that layer?"
"Due to the timely evacuation, all night watchmen have been moved to the middle defense line and are currently continuing to retreat to the outer area in batches. No personnel were lost."
"That's okay..." Leah finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I should have set up another alarm device...hasn't it responded yet?"
"Not yet."
Hao Ren glanced at Leah: "What level is the level one warning signal?"
"The highest level is 'zero level'," Leah said quietly. "Level one means that all containment measures are about to or have already exceeded the critical point. The prison is completely losing its function. And at level zero...level zero is no longer
Here is the warning signal again, it is a notice to the whole universe, announcing that all seals have been completely destroyed, containment has failed, and the Lord of Madness is in a fully active state. It is more like a last word than an alarm."
Hao Ren heard several people behind him take a deep breath subconsciously, and he was no exception: "So the level one warning is actually equivalent to the highest alert... How long will it take before it changes to level zero?"
Leah did not answer immediately, but turned around to check the large amount of data sent by Asuman. Countless holographic images surrounded her, and the jumping parameters and curves depicted the current situation of the constantly collapsing time and space in the center of the universe.
After minutes of calculation, she turned around: "We still have two months at most. This includes the delayed effect of the prison's remaining structures on the Lord of Madness after its function fails, and the longest delay that the night watchers can have.
Time. But the Night's Watch troops cannot be lost inside, so if the situation deteriorates rapidly, we may not even have two months."
"Then prepare for the worst case scenario," Hao Ren said quickly, turning to look at Remendusa, "When will the Genesis Engine be completely completed?"
"The interface of the Heart of God has been completed, and the internal storage structure of the Creation Engine will also be transformed within three days, and the overall assembly will be completed within ten days," Remendusa said in one breath, "During this period, the installation of the Heart of God can be completed
Driver rewriting and database reset, but after completion, we may not have many testing opportunities...it will be sent to the battlefield as a test machine."
"It doesn't matter, the Goddess of Destruction only has an experimental machine in her hand," Hao Ren said, then turned to look at Mulu, "How is the situation on each ecological planet?"
At first, Mulu only served as Tanagus's "gardener", but after Tanagus's ecosystem slowly got on the right track, Muru's scope of work further expanded, and he began to be responsible for organizing and monitoring the dream plane.
Information on ecological planets discovered everywhere.
Since the old Firstborn Network has been destroyed, the monitoring of these ecological planets is completed by the newly built "Zroam Network".
The so-called Drom network is a network that uses the antenna system of the crystal core research station and the drone swarm as a carrier and is controlled by Drom's spiritual projection. On the agent's home planet, this technology was applied for the first time and passed smoothly.
After acceptance, Hao Ren is now promoting it on a large scale to every ecological planet that has been included in the archives, including Horleta and Io.
"The conditions of each ecological planet are normal, and there are no signs of being eroded by the crazy power."
Hao Ren nodded: "Focus on monitoring planets with intelligent creatures, especially their dreams. Once large-scale behavioral disorders or nightmare infiltration are discovered, mental filtering will be activated."
The special way of infection and spread of the Mad Lord is particularly dangerous to all intelligent beings. Especially when these creatures have the ability to dream, the danger will be multiplied. Therefore, Hao Ren has to be careful every time.
Mental filtering devices are installed near every ecological planet discovered as an insurance policy.
But speaking of high-end, this mental filtering device is essentially just a "divine focusing lens". Its function is to draw an appropriate amount of energy from the divine resonance network built by Leah, focus it and then shine it on the ecological planet to achieve control over the madness.
The effect of covering or interfering with the power of clamor.
In a short period of time, this "spiritual filter" device can indeed be effective, but if it is turned on for a long time, this power that mortals cannot bear will cause a devastating blow to the ecological planet, and even the slightest will cause all people with
Wise creatures become fools.
Therefore, the mental filtering device is only allowed to be turned on when it is confirmed that the power of madness has begun to erode the planet on a large scale, and it can only be turned on for a short period of time.
"Whether it is enhancing the monitoring of ecological planets or setting up mental filtering devices, they are only auxiliary means." After arranging a series of countermeasures, Hao Ren turned to Leah and said, "The future of this universe is still determined by the dark abyss.
in."
"Yes... this battle will have to be fought sooner or later," Leah breathed out softly, "After so many years, it must come to an end."
Hao Ren nodded slightly and looked at the holographic projection next to him. On that holographic projection, Asuman's surveillance image of the direction of the dark abyss was displayed.
"It's time to take a look around the 'dividing line'."
