Chapter 322

A Supreme Divinity existing in a higher dimension.

Was a starfish—a great, magnificent starfish with shining eyes, an incredibly abstract body, and infinite mystery.

Following this came the detailed documentation.

【Anomaly: Cosmic Starfish】

【Classification: Supreme Divinity】

【Item Number: Anomaly-C-1548】

【Containment Class: Fifth】

【Item Description: "Anomaly-C-1548" is a five-pointed starfish growing in the Bay of Bengal, confirmed to be a cognitohazardous entity, usually manifesting as one or more clusters. When humans directly observe "Anomaly-C-1548", they suffer intense cognitohazardous effects.】

【All multiverses are merely one side of "Anomaly-C-1548", and the essence of "Anomaly-C-1548" is the origin and collection of all "fives" at the conceptual level, which truly and thoroughly transcends all limitations of time, space, matter, and energy.】

【An ineffable, mysterious existence, a sacred starfish, a complete pentagon, a walker of the fifth dimension, a dream above the stars and the firmament, worshipped by the Fifth Church.】

"There are no more starfish (sad)."

"What kind of cosmic joke is the Foundation playing? A Supreme Divinity is actually just a... five-pointed starfish growing in a bay?"

"Those who can still hold on are truly talented. A few people just collapsed downstairs; they're sleeping like babies now."

"Just woke up. I feel like ever since my mind had a few issues, I've become much more spirited."

"Same here, same here. I don't know why, but now when I look at this Cosmic Starfish, I don't see any great existence; I only see a fat pink starfish. There's a kind of pure beauty unpolluted by knowledge."

"I won't lie to you, right now I see a yellow sponge, an octopus, a starfish, and a squirrel chatting in front of me... am I crazy?"

"The origin and collection of 'five' at the conceptual level... what a peculiar Supreme Divinity. Are there also conceptual origins and collections for '0' and '1'?"

In such a scene, the audience saw an incredibly familiar figure approaching from afar.

A sea of white sand crawled beneath, paving the way.

That void figure, clad in sand-robes, moved slowly toward the "Cosmic Starfish".

It was none other than "The Missing", who had destroyed the universe.

This movement and approach were not as simple as linear motion in three-dimensional space.

Beyond the addition of two dimensions, there was movement and approach in a conceptual sense.

The "Cosmic Starfish" seemed to possess some trait, or some ineffable power, that tempted "The Missing" to come.

But just as "The Missing" drew closer and closer, about to fulfill one of His desires.

He instinctively raised His head, looking with His hollow face toward a more distant and lofty place.

Floating there was a figure. She appeared as a woman, with a beautiful face and graceful posture. Though unclothed, she inspired no evil thoughts. She wore a black crown on her head, and behind her were wings that seemed to contain infinite light.

【Name: Mary Nakayama】

【Classification: Supreme Divinity】

【Containment Class: Thaumiel】

【Item Description: Mary Nakayama was originally a researcher for the Foundation, who later ascended to godhood through the anomaly "A Record", becoming a Supreme Divinity.】

【Ascension Record: One day, an anomalous record appeared on the Foundation's database page, designated by the Foundation as "Anomaly-001".】

【This was a record that would automatically appear at the top of the data list. Its original purpose should have been to occupy the number one spot on the charts, but it failed because the publisher was still using manual typing.】

【Mary Nakayama accidentally discovered one of its anomalous properties—any objective description written under the data page of "Anomaly-001" would become fact.】

【Subsequently, Mary Nakayama began using the item to conduct some tests, and finally made up her mind to begin a plan.】

【She locked the page from everyone else, and then used extremely detailed descriptions on the page to manage to ascend to godhood. After this, she disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a 267-note for the O5.】

【The O5 Council and the Foundation's high command carefully recorded this project in a subjective tone, locked the relevant content at the highest level, and strictly reviewed other pages.】

【That record was de-numbered and placed in a cabinet to gather dust.】

"F***! An anomaly that can allow one to ascend to a Supreme Divinity!"

"Is the Foundation stupid? With this thing, why didn't they control 'The Missing' at the first opportunity? Even if they had to create another Supreme Divinity, that would have worked, right?"

"Alright, stop talking about this... I suggest you focus on your own mental state first. Having stared directly at so many Supreme Divinities in one day, I just feel my head swelling and my eyes about to pop out."

"I have to say it! I have to say it!"

"The situation is roughly clear now. This Mary Nakayama is likely going to have a head-on conflict with 'The Missing', right?"

"Should be. After all, She was once a Foundation researcher. In terms of the restraining relationship between researchers and anomalies, Mary Nakayama will blast 'The Missing' to pieces."

"God-tier restraining relationship."

Mary Nakayama raised both hands, and between them, light overlapped and intertwined, changing infinitely, as if possessing endless possibilities, and changing as unpredictably as magic.

"The Missing" extended His right arm slightly, and white sand coiled up around His right arm, wriggling and stretching upward.

Almost simultaneously, this conceptual existence of "Missing" forged a long blade out of "Emptiness" and white sand.

He aimed the blade at Mary Nakayama, and then power flowed, preparing for the slaughter.

This was a clash between Supreme Divinities.

Unless the difference in their status was too great, a temporary victory could not decide anything.

"Boom!"

An unimaginable flame, beyond what language could describe, erupted.

This flame came from Mary Nakayama and could easily incinerate the galaxy, yet it was merely a probing attack from Her.

When the flames dissipated, "The Missing" still stood upon the white sand, surrounded by the sea of white sand, holding the blade in one hand aimed at Mary Nakayama.

He tapped the tip of the blade, and thus "Reality" and "Blankness" were reversed, bringing the pressure of world-destruction as He attacked Mary Nakayama.

The entire world was pure white; it was infinite light.

In Mary Nakayama's hands, beams of light erupted, and at every smallest scale, miracles no less than the Big Bang were being staged.

The next moment, the two supreme gods disappeared simultaneously and reappeared in the same place.

"Bang!"

They were locked in a death struggle! ===== CHAPTER 324 =====
