Chapter 208: with translation of chapter title

Ling Yue's watch second hand is flowing backwards.

The moment she stepped into the Engine Room hatch, the titanium alloy gear suddenly jammed in the fourth gear slot. Ao Li's Emerald Stardust hovered 0.33 centimeters from the Dragon Scale, a distance that had been maintained for seven minutes—or, put another way, 0.7 seconds of real time.

###【Time Gel Fetal Sound】

Wails surged from the tetrahedron's heat exchange ducts. Lín Jìn had just raised the detector when the trajectory of his arm's motion left six afterimages in the air. His Seed Core energy seeped from his skin, condensing in 1/100 Time Flow speed into the golden amber of the 《Primordial Slaying Classic》, each bubble wrapping a stretched, distorted alarm sound.

"Cervical resonance Pinqü match!" The mechanical female voice carried ninefold tremolo. Ling Yue's eyelash ice crystals suddenly underwent quantum fission, the dodecahedral structure unfolded in Fourth Dimension space into a Klein Bottle, from its base seeped a bronze-colored colostrum mixed with the fishy sweetness of fetal lipids—this was exactly the entropy-reducing vortex smell they encountered in Chapter 207.

###【Four-Dimensional Lactation】

Ao Ling's reverse scale suddenly pierced the time membrane. When the jade star dust touched the source of the crying, the engine room suddenly unfolded into a hypercube structure. Everyone saw three hundred sixty selves moving in different time cross‑sections; each version of Ling Yue scanned the sound source with star‑chart cracks, and each version of Lín Jìn's seed core burst out with different‑colored alarm lights.

"Don't touch the four‑dimensional projection!" Ling Yue in real time just issued a warning, when the hypercube underwent dimensional reduction contraction. A future cross‑section of Ao Ling suddenly silicified, and the jade star dust condensed into obstetric forceps that pierced Ling Yue's current mechanical uterus—this action simultaneously occurred at seven time points, and the star‑chart cracks oozed thirty‑four versions of the "Life Covenant" from different eras.

###【Fetal Heart Rate】

When Lín Jìn injected the seed core energy into the apex of the hypercube, the crying suddenly materialized into a Mandelbrot fetal heart monitor. The interval between peaks and troughs precisely corresponded to 0.618 seconds, exactly the dimensional resonance constant they discovered in chapter 122. Ling Yue's mechanical uterus suddenly burst forth with bronze‑colored amniotic fluid, within which floated a jade die indicating: the current heart rate frequency will reach a resonance peak in chapter 250.

"This is the dimensional heartbeat of the primordial chaos body..." Ao Ling's reverse scale shuttled through the time membrane, and the jade star dust condensed into a non‑Euclidean stethoscope. When the stethoscope head touched the core of the hypercube, everyone heard ninefold cries suddenly synchronize—real‑time flow speed plummeted to 1/1000, and Lín Jìn's seed core surface manifested 250 pregnancy‑stripe light spots.

###【Spacetime Umbilical Punishment】

The engine room dome suddenly secreted the umbilical cord from the 《Primordial Slaughter Classic》. These biological conduits, entwined with temporal factors, pierced the hypercube, suturing together people from different time cross‑sections into a three‑dimensional form. Ling Yue saw her left hand touching the jade box sand table three days ago, while her right hand was devoured by the chaos body five hours later—the jade star dust flowed backward along the umbilical cord, imprinting the trauma of those two time points simultaneously onto the present neural synapse.

"Sever causality!" Lín Jìn's seed core suddenly underwent quantum collapse, with golden meridians expanding in four‑dimensional space into a Klein bottle firewall. When the first cry frequency was blocked, all time‑cross‑section Ao Lings simultaneously underwent reverse‑scale rebirth—the jade star dust erupted like a supernova, scorching the sutured spacetime umbilical cords of everyone into a two‑dimensional fragment of the "Life Covenant".

###【Omen of Birth】

When real time resumed flow, the engine room floor retained thirty‑four pools of bronze‑colored colostrum. Ling Yue's watch began to run forward, but each tick of the second hand caused the dial to display a phantom of a jade fetus. Lín Jìn's seed core surface gained a new pregnancy stripe, whose undulation frequency perfectly resonated with the residual tremor of the crying.

Ao Ling picked up a fragment of a reverse scale, discovering on its inner side an encrypted log of the original captain.

**Dimensional Contraction Rips the Causal Membrane**

As everyone withdrew, the engine room's heat exchange pipe suddenly emitted a new vibration. This time it was not an infant's cry, but a low hum akin to cosmic string vibration—this frequency will tear the starship's dimensional amnion in chapter 250, yet now it resembles an unborn fetus licking the bronze umbilical cord.
