Chapter 62

~7 min read 1,283 words

"Uncle Yang... why do you sound..."

March 7th couldn't help but ask curiously:

"So experienced in this matter of resurrection?"

"... I..." Welt Yang scratched his head: "I once gave my life again and again for my homeland..."

"... Huh?" A giant question mark appeared within the train.

"... General, what is your take on this?" Lord Fu Xuan propped up her face, speaking with an exhausted expression.

"Me?"

Hearing Jing Yuan pointed at himself;

"I watch via the light screen."

"This seat is asking you... can the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou tolerate such an act of immortality?" Lord Fu Xuan took a deep breath and asked.

"... Lord Fu."

Hearing Jing Yuan scratched his head, pointed at himself, and asked:

"Me fighting the Disaster Empire? For real?"

"..." Lord Fu Xuan's eye twitched.

"Lord Fu, I can fight; I can challenge the Disaster Empire for the Hunt."

Hearing Jing Yuan smiled slightly and said calmly:

"But I cannot let the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou, let the warriors on the front lines, fight a war with no chance of victory, sacrificing themselves for nothing."

"Warriors on the front lines must shed blood, give their lives, and offer everything to slay the enemy; those issuing orders from the rear must be worthy of them, not letting their blood flow for a moment's impulse."

"... Sigh, this seat merely fears the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou will, due to impulse, move into total opposition against the Disaster Empire..."

Lord Fu Xuan closed her eyes slightly:

"Sometimes this seat wonders that compared to the continuation of civilization, the conflict between Abundance and the Hunt seems not so important."

Hearing Jing Yuan merely smiled, changed the subject, and asked: "Lord Fu, how is the operation of the Great Array of Universal Observation created by the brain of the Abomination of Abundance?"

"Strangely enough, when the computing power increased to six times that of the original Observation Array, the precision of observing the future also reached its peak."

Lord Fu Xuan stroked her chin and said with a furrowed brow:

"Yet when computing power continued to increase, the observation precision of the Observation Array plummeted cliff-like, and the information obtained turned into a string of chaotic noise."

"What is strange is that even when observing the same object under identical conditions and at similar times, completely different chaotic information is obtained."

Lord Fu Xuan hesitated somewhat, as if organizing chaotic thoughts.

"Similar causes yield similar effects; this is the fundamental principle of observing the future."

"Whether it be the diviners of the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou, the Memokeepers of the Garden of Recollection, or even the emissaries of the Finality, all must abide by this fundamental principle when observing the future."

"But in the newly manufactured Observation Array, similar causes have yielded completely different effects."

"It is as if..."

Lord Fu Xuan paused, then said in a low voice:

"It is as if the reality of our universe is merely a thin layer of mist, and all existence is nothing but an illusion reflected upon that mist."

"When we look too closely, reality reveals its flaws..."

"Hmm?" Hearing Jing Yuan frowned slightly: "What does this mean?"

"... I cannot explain it clearly either; it is merely a vague feeling..."

Lord Fu Xuan shook her head:

"It may also be that the observation principle of the Observation Array simply fails once precision reaches a certain level."

"I will attempt to rearrange the Observation Array to see if more precise results can be obtained."

Hearing Jing Yuan nodded slightly; regarding such technical matters, he chose to trust Lord Fu Xuan.

He shifted his attention to the light screen...

Upon the light screen,

the Aether Dragon still endured intense pain, twitching slightly;

even with the resurrection by the Disaster Empire, she still could not adapt to the physical laws of this reality,

and similarly, the reality of this universe was resisting the Aether Dragon.

"The Disaster Empire intends to let the Aether Dragon continue enduring prolonged pain..."

"If that is the case, then why speak of ending the Aether Dragon's pain once and for all?"

"It seems that even the Disaster Empire cannot make the Aether Dragon adapt to the physical laws of this universe."

The sentient beings of the universe could not help but sigh, lamenting that the Aether Dragon still could not escape the pain of being incompatible with reality.

That director of the Post-Mortem Employment Center of the Interastral Mega-Corporation, who called himself Director Number Seventy-Nine, turned his gaze toward the Societal Array.

【"Your Excellency, should you not show us the relic within that Reliquary?"】

Director Number Seventy-Nine asked respectfully:

【"A relic capable of being carried in a Reliquary; I believe everyone present longs to behold it."】

【"And surely all are curious as to which relic treasured by the Empire it might be?"】

【"You have already witnessed its brilliance."】

The Societal Array walked toward that sealed Reliquary:

【"Every human citizen who enjoys eternal life has once paid homage to this great relic."】

【"Could it be..." 】 Director Number Seventy-Nine widened his eyes, looking at the Reliquary with full anticipation.

The crew members around also cast devout gazes.

Amidst the curious gazes of all sentient beings in the universe, the Reliquary slowly opened,

A crystal fragment, translucent and shimmering with blue-purple hues, was exposed to the gaze of all living beings.

That crystal fragment was so beautiful it defied description in words.

It seemed like a creation transcending all reality, woven from hyper-dimensional threads, glittering brilliantly.

Within the facets of the crystal, myriad dazzling lights refracted, revealing glimpses of scenes as idyllic as Eden.

【"The Holy Seat of His Majesty the Emperor, a relic of the Star Realm, granting us an eternal hyper-dimensional port."】

【"This is the heart of us humans, the blood of us humans; only through this do we people attain eternity."】

【"This is a fragment from His Majesty's 'Eternal Wang Zuo.'"】

The voice of the Sociological Array rang out in the ears of all beings across the universe.

Just as everyone felt puzzled, a line of subtitles appeared on the light screen...

【Relic: Eternal Wang Zuo】

【The Wang Zuo belonging to the Emperor of the Calamity Empire, a hyper-dimensional port capable of granting eternal life.】

【Those influenced by it exist within a reality devoid of fear, miracles, death, or endings.】

【One need only touch it with both hands to activate its unique immortality properties.】

【"Our eternity, our memories... If we are the blood, then this is our heart."】

Beings throughout the universe could not help but widen their eyes in shock.

(Protagonist's crystal toilet. jpg, a relic from the Star Realm Rift DLC; what the Boundary Breakers in Calamity fight over is precisely this thing.)

(However, that Star Realm Rift DLC isn't fun; it's all tomb-raiding content, not recommended for purchase.)

70. 【Aha: This universe is just a game!】

Within the light screen, the blue-purple crystal fragment held by the Sociological Array slowly floated up and gently touched the flesh and blood of the Aether Dragon.

The pain on the Aether Dragon's body, suppressed by reality and intolerable to the laws of physics, vanished instantly.

Her form was inexplicably shrouded in a peculiar aura, as if she existed simultaneously within two universes.

"What?! What has happened??"

"With just a single touch, how could the Aether Dragon adapt to the physical laws of this universe?"

"What exactly is that crystal, that fragment of the 'Eternal Wang Zuo'?"

【Relic: Eternal Wang Zuo】

【The Wang Zuo belonging to the Emperor of the Calamity Empire, a hyper-dimensional port capable of granting eternal life.】

【Those influenced by it exist within a reality devoid of fear, miracles, death, or endings~.】

【One need only touch it with both hands to activate its uni-que immortality properties.】
