It's not that it was completely useless, but it was certainly futile.
The feedback received was nothing but meaningless abstractions.
The cat and mouse, transformed from the Starry Sky, beat them mercilessly, but they couldn't do anything about it. There was no point in staying any longer.
Old Man Legos never tells the truth; he's a prime example of someone who's always wrong when he's telling the truth.
Trust him?
That's truly the best I've ever had in my life.
The group composed themselves and continued their journey toward the core of the matrix.
"This place feels lifeless."
A deathly silence, like that of a graveyard at night, filled the air. Haitu rubbed his bare arms and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"The environmental parameters are seriously inconsistent. What exactly did that guy do to the scepter?"
"Well, just in case, I mean just in case..."
The moon-shaped figure of March 7th lightly tapped its chin with its index finger, blinking its large, clear red eyes.
"Lai Gushi or Xiao Chunan?"
The stars blinked, and the transition was seamless.
"Don't make me laugh."
Qiong seemed unable to keep her composure and burst out laughing.
"What are you talking about?!"
March 7th angrily waved her little fists and gave her two adorable children two punches without hesitation.
"I'm genuinely worried, okay!"
"I mean, what if Demook really doesn't exist?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Qiong grinned and moved his hands back and forth in front of him like a sliding rheostat.
“Xi Lian told Demiao Ge more than 30 million stories, more than 30 million!”
Qiong raised three fingers, emphasizing them.
Husband and wife in harmony:
"Even if you had over thirty million steamed buns, it would take Lai Gushi half a cycle to eat them all. How could they just disappear like that!"
"..."
March 7th, Haitu, and Tixiao fell silent as they watched the two of them singing in unison.
"Indeed, records can be erased, and this one disappeared so thoroughly that not a trace was left. It's a bit like trying to hide something obvious."
Although the reasons differed, Haitu agreed with Xingqiong's view.
“I used EtherEdit to perform a deep scan, and it couldn’t even detect a trace of residual data dust, which is very strange.”
Is it possible?
Ti Xiao turned around, her bright red hair tied in a high ponytail swaying with her movements, adding a rare splash of color to this desolate place.
"Is it hidden deeper, in a more central place? Like a hidden level in a game?"
"Since we're already here, let's go take a look."
Putting away the Flame Spear, Xing Le, unable to contain himself, swung the Galaxy Bat, which shimmered with a deep blue light, gripped the end tightly, and smashed it down on the wall in front of him.
The pioneering journey of Galaxy Batman has never been deciphered according to the rules.
because.
"Rules are meant to be broken!"
The roadblocks shattered instantly, blasted away by the violent force, leaving a huge gap in the road.
Xing weighed the baseball bat in his hand with satisfaction, then put his hands on his hips and exclaimed:
"My baseball bat is truly powerful!"
"Is this hardcore road-building method really a good idea? What if it collapses?"
On March 7th, the corner of his mouth twitched a few times.
"Wow~ Brute force, simple and efficient."
Giving a thumbs-up, Haha Rabbit whistled, swayed its double helix, and followed with its smooth, delicate legs, continuing deeper into the matrix.
The group continued deeper into the area.
The scene before them grew increasingly chaotic, with various twisted metal structures and abandoned energy conduits piled together.
"Why does this place look like a garbage dump? Is Demogue a slovenly lazy bum who never cleans his room?"
Xing kept swinging his bat, knocking away obstacles in front of him and smashing through walls to clear a path.
"Mmm~ (I don't think so.)"
Mimi nestled on Qiong's shoulder, denying it entirely out of instinct.
"Do you think Demogue is like you? His room is so messy you can't even find a place to step?" March 7th complained.
Arriving at the next level, we reached the core area of the matrix.
A colossal gate, hundreds of meters high, radiating a heavy metallic luster and an energy barrier, blocked the way, its doors adorned with obscure runes.
"I detected several independent sources."
Haitu's fingertips danced rapidly across the virtual screen, leaving a trail of afterimages: "Data structures are similar to firewalls."
"Can you handle it?"
Ti Xiao knocked on the cold door, the sound echoing dully.
She originally came here intending to provide convenience for everyone through the Hundred Realms Gate, but as she officially entered the Demyoge Matrix, her powers seemed to be affected in some way.
It works, but it has become extremely unstable.
Of course, even normally functioning powers cannot break through the protected system doors.
"I'll give it a try..."
Haitu waved his hand to summon a virtual projection screen, and his hands moved rapidly across the keyboard.
Time ticked by, and only the clicking of the hacker girl's virtual keyboard echoed in the silence.
Fifteen minutes later.
"Hack successful, reversed computing power, attack... done! Open Sesame!"
Haitu snapped his fingers crisply, a victorious smile on his face.
Accompanied by the heavy hum of machinery and the buzzing of the energy barrier dissipating, the giant gate slowly slid open to both sides.
"Amazing!" Ti Xiao praised sincerely.
Ah Qiong's companions are indeed all highly skilled.
"Hiss...this feeling is kind of familiar."
Stepping into this core of the core, Xing looked around, his brows gradually furrowing:
"Qiongzai, what about you?"
“Emmm… Brownie.”
Qiong pondered for a moment and looked at the little rabbit.
Haitu understood immediately; even though Qiong didn't call her, she was also planning to use Ether to edit and scan.
"I discovered some noteworthy damage, such as high-energy radiation and imaginary number contamination, properties I've only seen in Pinocene."
"As expected, it is a star core."
Qiong recalled the logs she had seen at the system level:
"Lagushina Oldden detonated a star core here."
Upon hearing this, Xing was struck dumb, her whole body trembling violently. She abruptly knelt on one knee, her right fist pounding weakly against the cold ground. She forced two nonexistent tears from the corners of her eyes and let out a heart-wrenching cry of grief:
"My dear sister! My dear sister! My half-sister! How could you just die like this! You were ruined by that old geezer! You died such a tragic death!"
"Almost got it."
March 7th reveals the classic sweaty soybean expression.
Will the star core 'die'?
Haitu looked at Qiong and asked the question that had been bothering her.
"From a generally rational point of view, no."
"Where did the star core go?"
The question from the Haunted Rabbit made Xing, who was paralyzed with grief, pause for a moment and raise his head.
"His fate is unknown?"
But only for a moment, and the next second she howled again.
"That means he's dead!"
"..."
Giving up on treating the abstract illness, Xing scanned the surrounding traces.
"Still no trace. If Demogue was destroyed, there should have been some remnants left here, right?"
Qiong, who believed from beginning to end that Demyogo was alright, focused her attention on the star core.
He was more curious about where the star core had gone.
And, with a star core, we can add the necessary settings for him.
Velvi and Mebius have been searching for the culprit that led 'them' to this world: the Star Core.
"Shall we go and look around elsewhere?"
"Haitu asked while scanning with EtherEdit," he said.
They are currently located at the very center, and apart from the road they came from, there may be clues in other directions.
In response to this, Qiong...
"Since we're already here..."
It doesn't take much effort to wander around.
The group, guided by what I have written and the Ether editor, traversed the entire Demosisto-Götterdämmerung matrix.
No good news.
Only some fragmented clues and stories and anecdotes from the past were found.
The key point is that it's based on unofficial history, which is very suspicious.
It appears to be as I wrote in my book.
In other words, at least some of the outrageous historical anecdotes I wrote were written by Xi Lian. But how could she know all those random plot points and content from Earth's works?
Considering Xi Lian's act of sending a divine message from the future to the past.
"Could it be that the content I wrote is also a work that runs from the future through the past, bringing together cause and effect?"
His eyes are full of thoughts.
That's where the problem comes in.
A few divine pronouncements might be enough to accomplish this using Onphalus's memories and destiny.
But as I say, storytelling is a partial access to the Demuseum Matrix, and this thing is quite valuable. Qiong doesn't believe that using memories and destiny can leverage such a massive causal chain.
Even an order won't work!
It would probably require the power of a star god to accomplish this.
