Chapter 1151: Chapter 560: Chrono’s Left-Behind Message 2
Everyone knows that the Holy Castle is the key. As long as there are no issues there, it can be accepted.
The current situation will probably anger the higher-ups once again.
…
Empire Capital, Adam is receiving a secret report, his expression peculiar, “Information left by Chrono for me?”
On the virtual screen, a resolute-looking middle-aged man seriously said, “Yes, that’s what the Dimension Life Form said.”
“It seems he has been looking for someone from the Empire and had to ensure it was someone following your orders. After providing me with the relevant information stream, he self-destructed. I have commanded the highest-level secret preservation to deliver it back as swiftly as possible.”
Adam nodded with an inscrutable expression, immediately recalling Azure Dragon.
Chrono passed information to him in this manner, estimating it must have something to do with Azure Dragon before his death.
Could it be some secret regarding Azure Dragon?
Thinking of this, Adam felt somewhat anxious.
But the item being transported back ultimately needs time, and he doesn’t want more people to know about this matter, feeling it necessary to view it personally, he has to temporarily suppress it.
Momentarily brushing aside this matter, Adam asked again, “How is the search for that item going?”
The middle-aged man hesitated, “We have searched the area where Chrono perished, the main contested area of Eternal Silence Star, and the trajectory along the way, but have still found nothing.”
“Not even traces related to it.”
Adam furrowed his brow, tapping his knuckles on the tabletop. These people he dispatched were to search for the fragments of Eternal Silence Star, and Chrono’s leftover information was an unexpected find.
He holds a third, Azure Dragon holds a third, and there still should be a third lost externally, unknown to anyone.
Since the surface-level conflicts ended, he sent these people, it’s been half a year now, but still found nothing.
“Keep searching, remember, conceal yourselves.” he instructed.
“Understood.” the middle-aged man nodded.
Once the screen dimmed, Adam slowly leaned back in his chair, various information weaving through his mind.
Before long, “Chrono’s leftover information” surfaced, facing the thorny enemy Azure Dragon, this information tugged at his heartstrings, “What exactly… is it?”
For a moment, he linked many thoughts.
But soon, his tranquil contemplation was interrupted by a communication request from Costate.
His eyes flashed sharply, quickly composing himself, choosing to accept.
“Holy Emperor…” Costate greeted with a wry smile; Adam essentially had an idea, solemnly asking, “Something went wrong at Holy Castle?”
“Your foresight is impressive.” Costate said helplessly, “Today, the chosen ones arrived; we were planning to launch the second exploration, but unexpectedly Azure Dragon suddenly forced communication with the Holy Castle…”
He roughly recounted the event, Adam’s expression remained unchanged.
Upon hearing about the Information State Isolation Lock having recorded Azure Dragon’s Information State, his eyebrows lifted, as this should be good news.
But given Costate mentioned a mutation, Adam felt no excitement, continuing to listen.
“…As a result, while the selected ones attempted Heckler’s previous means, an accident occurred, the Holy Castle did not respond. We suspect Azure Dragon altered the fundamental rules of the Holy Castle…”
“Wait…” Adam’s expression shifted slightly, suddenly interrupting, gravely stating, “Are you certain Azure Dragon altered the Holy Castle’s rules?”
Costate hesitated slightly, detecting Adam’s unusual reaction, kept conservative, “As of now… this possibility is the greatest. Is there anything amiss?”
“It’s the Holy Castle, personally constructed by the Dominator.” Adam’s voice deepened, “It’s not something that can be changed with mere words, he…”
Adam halted.
Costate’s expression grew solemn, realizing this matter is more severe than he imagined, “Now, using the King’s Trial cannot squeeze into the Holy Castle, all plans must be overturned and started anew.”
“It can’t be delayed; he might be closer to Diglas’s Crown than we imagined.” Adam’s expression shifted, immediately ordering, “Tell Heckler, don’t hold back, use the backup plan.”
Costate’s heart skipped, “Heckler’s backup plan is merely in the conjecture stage, may not necessarily succeed.”
“Don’t worry, let the Star Alliance and the Federation bear all costs.” Adam coldly stated, “We provide the plan, they both provide solutions, very reasonable.”
Costate, upon hearing, his expression eased a bit, nodded, and then softly asked, “…Should we speed up the progress on the Chaotic Star Gap side?”
“That matter isn’t urgent… follow the procedure.” Adam shook his head, “The Chaotic Star Gap can’t fundamentally harm Azure Dragon, the Holy Castle side is the key.”
Costate understood, his initial confusion when reporting swept clear, having a renewed target.
……
In the Holy Castle, Li Ming, having watched the entire process through the Observer, couldn’t help but sigh, “You’re more reliable.”
If this loophole isn’t patched up, allowing the Three Great Civilizations to squeeze in, that would truly be an unmanageable disaster.
Observer retracted his metallic arm, letting the virtual screen vanish, shaking his head, “This can only delay momentarily, you still need to quickly think of a solution, otherwise, you’ll have to abandon here…”
Thinking of this, Observer couldn’t help being somewhat angry, “Life forms of the Main Universe, why are they so short-sighted, the danger of Eternal Abyss looms overhead, shouldn’t we collaborate, yet they still fight endlessly.”
“Your universe’s singular talent should receive the full cultivation of the entire universe, which is the hope against Eternal Abyss.”
“Back then, Titans indeed collaborated, without distinction between yours and mine.”
“Haha…” Li Ming couldn’t resist grinning, “I bet you must have a filter, even the Titans then faced the final crisis, might not necessarily collaborate.”
Observer scowled, slightly discontented, “Of course, collaboratively, regardless of death or consequence, no Titan had selfish intentions, nor internal strife occurred.”
“Then why are there eight Holy Castles?” Li Ming countered.
Observer suddenly froze, frowning to explain, “Things naturally can’t be placed in one basket, nor given to just one life form.”
“The Dominators wished to nurture more seeds, to assist future civilizations against the danger of Eternal Abyss.”
“It’s for avenging them, isn’t it.” Li Ming pierced straightforwardly, shaking his head, “Collaborating is easier said than done, sometimes it seems collaborative, but merely one’s strength has to be directed accordingly.”
“Moreover, Titans were at least one race, while the Main Universe’s races are like stars… wait…”
At this point, Li Ming seemed to notice something, using a peculiar gaze at Observer, smiling faintly, making him very uncomfortable, solemnly saying:
“No matter what you think, Titans definitely collaborate, if you were born in the Titan Era, you’d certainly receive full cultivation.”
“I suddenly thought, the collaboration you mentioned doesn’t include those Titan Branches, right? Even you didn’t consider them as ‘people’.
Observer’s metallic face abruptly changed.
Li Ming shook his head with a laugh, “You said it would have been great if I were born in the Terrax Era, subconsciously including me into the Titan Race, I wonder if I were a Titan Branch?”
Observer, while blaming the Main Universe’s life forms for not collaborating.
Yet subconsciously separates Titan Branches from genuine Titans.
Even the Observer, who truly experienced the disaster of Eternal Abyss, feels distinctions among them, not to mention the people of the Main Universe.
Li Ming certainly does not quite expect that once the danger of Eternal Abyss is announced, people would suddenly collaborate to tackle the disaster, completely nurturing him.
Moreover, the Three Great Civilizations are not unaware of the existence of Eternal Abyss.
Observer’s face tightened, unable to speak a word.
