Chapter 1308
Originally so. Black Tower Lady mentioned that she had seen the remnant image of two nameless guests in the world of Wengluo Luo, but that appeared both like lingering thought substance and like a data projection. Walter lowered his head, pondering, "In that case, at different times, the steps of Xing and Danheng have overlapped with Black Tower Lady."
Xingqiri comforted, "Think positively, this at least shows they both landed safely and have begun a relatively successful pioneering."
Not long ago, Fuli's gaze swept over Wengluo Luo. Adding the information Black Tower Lady gained on this trip—Wengluo Luo might ignite the wrath of an Extinction Sovereign." Black Swan analyzed.
Extinction Sovereign..." Walter's face gradually turned ashen, "Previously, when we confronted the Extinction Sovereign Huanlong on the Xianzhou, we later learned some related information from the Xianzhou. I don't know whether the destruction brewing behind Wengluo Luo comes from the well-known across the universe Fenfeng, Xingxiao, Tie Mu, or like Huanlong, an Extinction Sovereign still unknown to the world."
No matter which one... once it erupts, it will inevitably bring suffering to all living beings.
Black Tower chuckled lightly: "Heh, from this angle, Wengluo Luo might be a safe box. After all, three or more higher-level Order forces, once they misfire, pack more punch than Zhadeweike's explosives."
Walter worried: "If that's really the case... Xing and Danheng inside Wengluo Luo would be in considerable danger."
"No matter what, we must get in touch with them."

"That is to say, the Extinction Sovereign currently gestating in Wengluo Luo does not belong to the Fenfeng, Tie Mu, Xingxiao line, but is a completely new Extinction Envoy. Tch..."
Long Wo slammed his fist hard on the table, a "dong" sound making several full bottles jump up, producing a clattering noise.
"Last time dealing with Huanlong, the Xianzhou side had already exerted its utmost effort, but it only eliminated an incarnation formed by the Jianmu, not completely killing Huanlong. But now... a new Extinction Sovereign has actually been born?!"
Previously, the only thing that caused an Extinction Sovereign to fall was the Sea-Wandering Ranger, who gathered who knows how many people, paid how many sacrifices to kill Zhuluo; now suddenly another Extinction Sovereign pops out from some corner... This makes Long Wo find it hard to accept for a moment.
"Don't rush, Long Wo, wanting to kill this Extinction Sovereign is not without clues." Zhan Tu turned around, the corner of his mouth curling into a confident smile, "Think about it carefully—since this Extinction Sovereign is born relying on the Scepter, its characteristics are quite obvious."
"What characteristics?"
"It is very likely an inorganic lifeform similar to Geshuwu and Laigushi. Dealing with such a monster, attacking from the outside is probably not a good idea; programmatically, entering from the inside offers some chance of success. For example, breach its firewall, inject a bunch of viruses, or embed a segment of malicious code in its program to trigger a memory overflow, causing its core operation matrix to fall into an infinite loop."
Zhan Tu's fingers rapidly tapped in the void, his expression as if he were playing an invisible symphony.
"In short, all these can let Geshuwu help; as a mechanical being, he should know best how to deal with mechanical beings—after all, as the king of the Screw Star, who could understand mechanical beings better than him?"
"But Zhan Tu, that Laigushi he just couldn't fully handle." Meikong suddenly interrupted.
"Laigushi, after all, is a genius just like Geshuwu; breaking it would take more time, which is understandable." Zhan Tu said, "But what really concerns me is Laigushi's seat in the Genius Club—clearly it is also a genius, and currently a living genius, why is there so little news about it?"
"Perhaps it's because... low-key?"
"It indeed is low-key. But the Genius Club it belongs to gathers the smartest minds in the universe; if just the two words 'low-key' could perfectly conceal one's identity and movements, that would be an insult to genius."

"In order to probe the information inside the scepter, I once spent half an amber age crafting an identification-mark anchor." Geshuwu said, "This is the gift I bring you all. At that time, after embedding it into the Emperor's Scepter, I obtained an anchored time coordinate without destroying its shell."
"Even if the flow of time within the world is disrupted, basic causality cannot be violated. In the smallest computational unit, its temporal direction still follows a pattern. Logic: if Laigushi's firewall for Wengluo Luo is similar to the Emperor's Scepter's self-defense mechanism, then the identification-mark anchor should also be effective against it."
Black Tower couldn't help but praise: "... Geshuwu, the last time I admired you this much was when we built the simulated universe together."
"Black Tower Lady overpraised it; it's merely a tasteless little invention, a shame to discard."
Walter expressed gratitude: "Although there are still some doubts, Mr. Geshuwu's gift will surely help us contact Xing and Danheng."
"Premise: we have the time coordinates of those two brave nameless guests, and the identification-mark anchor indeed works on Wengluo Luo."
Black Tower's lips curled slightly: "The former is easy. I have seen their remnant image in the firewall, suitable as a reference frame. As for the latter..."
"—How would we know without trying?"
"In a world where spacetime serves as a barrier, I have indeed seen such a thing in my long years..." Geshuwu shifted tone, "Have you all heard of... the Emperor's Scepter?"
Walter shook his head.
Among the many scepters owned by Rupert II, there is a massive system driven by anti-life programming, dedicated to simulating the destruction paths of myriad civilizations... Black Tower added, "Even in the scholastic wars, when the remaining scepters' computing power is drained, no one dares to use that uncontrolled knowledge killer—it is either permanently sealed or banished to the star abyss."

Massive system dedicated to simulating the destruction paths of myriad civilizations...
Jesse repeatedly murmured Black Tower Lady's introduction of the Emperor's Scepter, incredulously lowering his head, "That is to say, Bai'e, Xiadie, Aglaea, Tibao... are all fake? They are actually just a string of data, a line of code in the civilization simulated by the scepter? But they clearly..."
So real.
