Chapter 520: Order

【System is attempting to intercept…… interception failed!】

【The opponent has locked onto the host's existence coordinates!】

Qin Hao's smile on his face froze instantly.

"What the hell?!"

Qin Hao sprang up from the command chair, his face turning extremely grave.

【Warning! An unknown high-dimensional will is attempting to establish a logical link with you!】

【The link request has bypassed the absolute defense barrier!】

【Warning! This act possesses extremely high aggression and danger!】

The system's piercing alarms, like heavy hammers, struck Qin Hao's heart.

It bypassed the absolute defense barrier?

How is this possible?!

That wall was an eternal barrier he built by exhausting all his wealth and consuming half a rule black hole!

Its logical priority is a creation‑level rank that supersedes all the rules of this universe!

Theoretically, unless it is another existence of creation‑god level, it is utterly impossible to infiltrate his will without alerting him!

"System! Just what is the opponent's background?!"

Qin Hao asked inwardly.

【No data for comparison; the opponent's form of existence transcends the system's current knowledge reserves…… preliminary judgment: possibly from outside the universe.】

Outside the universe!

These four words made Qin Hao's pupils contract sharply.

He involuntarily thought of a possibility: outside the universe there exist countless universe bubbles.

Could it be that something out there has noticed this place?

As he pondered, that powerful will forcibly constructed a dialogue box deep within his soul.

No sound or image.

Only lines of text composed of underlying logic appeared in his consciousness.

【Observation target: Yanhuang Civilization.】

【Status: abnormal variable, high‑threat logic virus.】

【Behavioral analysis: attempting to tamper with and overwrite the underlying operating system of Universe G-2333.】

【Verdict: violation.】

Gazing at these lines of text, Qin Hao felt a chill surge from the soles of his feet straight to the crown of his head.

The opponent not only knows of their existence, but even clearly sees what they are doing!

This feeling,

is like when you are in your own home, thinking you have locked the doors and windows and are completely safe,

only to look up and discover a gigantic eye on the ceiling, coldly watching your every move.

Even more terrifying is the opponent's wording.

"Universe G-2333."

What does this number indicate?

It indicates that, in the opponent's cognition, the universe we inhabit is merely one of countless products,

and even has a clear serial number.

And this high‑dimensional will is more like a cross‑universe administrator, or an inspector.

【Solution: initiate the format command to erase the abnormal variable.】

【Command sending……】

【Command intercepted. Interceptor: the residual will of Universe G-2333.】

【Interception reason: the format command has already been executed by this unit.】

【Logic conflict judgment…… under reevaluation……】

Seeing this,

Qin Hao's mind raced, and he understood what was happening.

He broke out in a cold sweat.

How fortunate!

Fortunately, he had previously forced the cosmic innate will to trigger the zeroing procedure early!

Now this high‑dimensional administrator wants to issue a format command, but discovers that the computer has already had its format button pressed by the user himself.

A program cannot be run twice at the same time.

This inadvertently formed a logical lock, temporarily preventing the opponent's direct erasure!

【Evaluation complete.】

【New solution: given that this unit has entered an irreversible zeroing process, to prevent the logic virus (Yanhuang Civilization) from seizing core privileges or escaping with the zeroing, a physical isolation contingency is now being executed.】

【Containment details: outside Universe G-2333, construct a logical blockade circle to completely isolate it from the cosmic sea, until it fully zeros out and all internal variables are utterly annihilated.】

【Blockade circle under construction…… estimated completion time: 72 standard hours.】

After reading this passage, Qin Hao's heart sank.

This is truly cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron!

The previous cosmic innate will merely wanted to dismantle the foundation beneath his feet.

And what this high‑dimensional administrator intends to do is directly take the entire real‑estate project, together with the land, the buildings, the landlord, the holdout households……

Everything is sealed off completely from the outside with a gigantic black box!

Cut off all your paths of survival, cut off any possibility of you fleeing to the cosmic sea!

Then you'll just quietly watch as you slowly die together with this universe inside the black box, turning into true nothing.

This is ten thousand times more cruel than killing him outright!

Damn it!

In Qin Hao's eyes, true anger flared for the first time.

Whether it was the universe's innate will or that damn high-dimensional administrator, their aloof attitude—treating all things as straw dogs and casually deciding others' lives and deaths—thoroughly enraged him!

By what right?!

Our fate is to be decided by you?!

You just declare it a violation and it's a violation?!

You want to format it, so you format it?!

You want to lock me in a black box to wait for death?

Qin Hao bellowed into the void at the high-dimensional will probing him, a roar born from his soul.

I'm telling you, there's no way!

Seventy-two hours? That's enough!

I not only want to replace the universe's brain, I want to reshape the entire universe into my warship!

When your blockade is ready, you'll find that what you've imprisoned is not a lamb awaiting slaughter, but a prehistoric dragon that has already taken its lair and is armed to the teeth!

As if sensing Qin Hao's provocation, that will sent another line of text.

【Warning: Abnormal variable emotional fluctuations detected, threat level raised.】

【Advice: Abandon meaningless resistance. Before absolute order, any chaos will be corrected.】

Order? Correction?

Qin Hao laughed, his laugh ice-cold.

Your order is to reset the universe over and over, reducing countless civilizations' efforts to nothing?

The so-called correction is to erase any variable that doesn't follow your script?

Such a corrupt, rigid order that stifles all possibility—better to have none!

Starting today!

Qin Hao's voice spread through the soul network to the entire safe zone, reaching every Yanhuang compatriot and every ally.

I, Qin Hao, declare in the name of the strongest of Yanhuang Civilization!

The old universe is about to brain-death!

And we will become its brand-new brain!

The Seizure Plan enters top priority! All departments, all personnel, spare no expense to accelerate its progress!

We don't have much time!

We must, within seventy-two hours, seize full control of this universe before that black box is completely sealed!
