Chapter 269: Observer Nursery Chamber
Lín Jìn and Ao Li, carrying the weakened Ling Yue, guided the Obstetric Forceps into the mysterious space suffused with blood‑colored mist. As they pressed deeper, the mist thinned, and a huge, bizarre structure loomed before them, its irregular shape shimmering with an uncanny metallic sheen, countless pipes and cables criss‑crossing like a massive mechanical organism pulsing with life. This was the core area of the Observer Nursery Chamber they had been seeking.
The group, their hearts uneasy, approached the structure slowly. Upon entering its interior, the sight before them stunned them. They saw countless transparent chambers floating like gigantic bubbles, each containing a different cosmic tableau—some showing the birth and destruction of galaxies, others the evolution and extinction of life. These were experimental universes, each linked to the nursery chamber's central zone by thick umbilical cords.
"Oh my God! It's really like this..." Ao Li widened her eyes, murmuring to herself, her face full of astonishment as if she had witnessed the most inconceivable thing in the world. She stared blankly at the breathtaking scene, a storm of turmoil raging in her heart.
In the vast, boundless expanse, countless spheres shimmering with strange light floated silently. The spheres varied in size and shape, yet each exuded a mysterious, powerful aura. Upon closer inspection, each sphere seemed to contain an entire universe, with stars glittering and nebulae swirling in a dreamlike beauty.
"So all the experimental universes converge here..." Ao Li finally recovered from her shock, whispering softly. Her voice trembled slightly, clearly still unsettled. The scene was utterly incomprehensible, far beyond anything she had ever known.
Lín Jìn furrowed his brow. "What exactly are these Observers plotting? To create experimental universes on such a massive scale, there must be a huge conspiracy behind it."
They pressed on, following the direction of the umbilical cords. Eventually they reached a core zone. There they discovered the thickest main umbilical cord, linking to a massive sphere emitting a faint glow. Upon closer look, the sphere turned out to be Lin Yuan's modified quantum brain.
"How is Lin Yuan's quantum brain here, and linked to this main umbilical cord?" Ling Yue asked weakly, forcing herself to stay conscious, trying to uncover the truth behind it all.
Lín Jìn stepped forward, scrutinizing Lin Yuan's quantum brain. "Perhaps Lin Yuan plays a crucial role in this plot. This quantum brain could be one of the core nodes controlling these experimental universes."
At that moment, the surrounding space began to quake violently. The umbilical cords linking the experimental universes twisted wildly, as if awakened by some force. The scenes within each experimental universe descended into chaos, stable galaxies collapsing and life vanishing in an instant.
"Bad, our arrival seems to have triggered some mechanism," Ao Li warned, eyes scanning the surroundings, ready to face any danger that might arise.
Immediately, countless mechanical sentinels of varied forms surged from every corner of the Observer Nursery Chamber. Their massive bodies were sheathed in metal that glinted with a cold sheen, eyes radiating red murderous intent. The mechanical sentinels rushed toward Lín Jìn and the others.
"Looks like a fierce battle is inevitable," Lín Jìn said, gripping the Abyss Return Ruler, his gaze steady. Ao Li immediately gathered her strength, preparing to fight the mechanical sentinels to the death. Meanwhile, Ling Yue strained to adjust the Mechanical Uterus, trying to provide some support for the two.
In the core of this Observer Nursery Chamber, a battle concerning everyone's fate and the truth of the universe unfolded...
