The distance between the city center and where we are is so far that it can't be captured with the naked eye; however, I can still observe it with my perception. I can see the distant chaotic dark "Outer World Wall" like dark stains on a window being washed away by a storm, rapidly dissolving and sliding down, finally revealing the architectural landscape of the city center.
In the Southern City at this mont, the buildings and roads in the city center are the last relatively intact parts. Although there are many traces of attacks from Taoyuan Village, outside of this area, everything has been transford by my battle with Xuanming into barren land devoid of human activity traces, probably only through geological archaeological ans can one prove that city structures once existed here. The city center seems like an isolated island of civilization, standing out as an extrely abrupt landscape.
Little Bowl can also sense the changes over there; she exclaid, "It's just like another world..."
After all, it was always equivalent to another universe before.
As we remain busy dealing with the apocalypse events happening on Earth, Taoyuan Village Master ng Zhang is busy building a new universe—I once again felt that what he was doing and what was happening on Earth were not on the sa scale and shared this thought with Little Bowl.
"Perhaps indeed not on the sa channel, but if we talk about scale, in reality, it's not that far apart," Little Bowl said, "It's similar to the concept of a black hole."
"A black hole?" I didn't imdiately understand this analogy.
"It's said that at the center of the Milky Way, there's a supermassive black hole, the backbone of the Milky Way. Just like how the Eight Major Planets revolve around the sun, everything in the Milky Way revolves around that Silver Heart Black Hole," Little Bowl explained, "While at the sa ti, humans can create tiny, extrely short-lived mini artificial black holes using a large hadron collider.
"Even small humans confined to such a celestial body have already created a kind akin to those governing the Milky Way, yet the manmade black holes differ from the Silver Heart Black Hole by unknown numbers of astronomical units. The new universe ant to accommodate all of humanity likely has an even greater disparity compared to the boundless universe we inhabit."
It's still a matter of scale.
Even if similar or conceptually equivalent entities can be simulated, it doesn't prove humans are as great as the creator. Without the massive accumulation of matter and energy, simply manipulating concepts and rules is nothing more than futile trickery. What Little Bowl said about this truth, I've experienced countless tis.
"Paradise" naturally has overwhelmingly trendous power, but that's in comparison to an individual like . Compared to the grand scale of the real universe, "Paradise" is still just a negligible speck.
"——Anyway, now that the 'Outer World Wall' has disappeared, you can't remain here."
I rose to stand, then turned to Little Bowl and said, "Taoyuan Village Master ng Zhang is unlikely to co out, but Xu Gou and Water Navy Xuanwu can move freely. This place will soon turn into a battlefield; I'll send you out now."
Little Bowl looked at her empty lap with a hint of regret, saying, "If possible, I wanted to fully heal Brother Zhuang Cheng's wounds..."
"The wounds left now are rely superficial scars. From a battlefield perspective, there are no flaws to pick out," I said.
"I understand," Little Bowl nodded obediently, "Then, if conditions allow, the soul healing dicine for Sister Mazao, I'll trouble Brother Zhuang Cheng with it."
"Of course, I will rember to negotiate with Water Navy Xuanwu."
Saying this, I simultaneously intended to send Little Bowl out of the city barrier's confines while vigilantly observing the changes in the city center area. Little Bowl also cooperated by standing up, prepared to move outside.
Just at that mont, I suddenly noticed sothing amiss.
Besides Taoyuan Village Master ng Zhang and Xu Gou, there's also the adversarial Impermanence Water Navy Xuanwu at the city center area; the fact that the cluster of buildings there still maintains their shape is illogical. Can't be that for the past twenty days, Water Navy Xuanwu hasn't once clashed with Taoyuan Village Master ng Zhang and Xu Gou, remaining hidden all along? Considering that a full-force strike from Great Success Rank Water Navy Xuanwu can destroy a mountain, their battle would inevitably obliterate everything there.
Or, has it undergone countless reboots, and Water Navy Xuanwu has long been killed by the other two?
A vague thought surfaced in my mind—the city center area I observe feels like an unreasonable illusion; rely existing within my perceptive sight gives a sense of blurry lines between reality and fantasy.
The disappearance of the "Outer World Wall" not only exposed it but also seed to have released so indescribable force field. The unknown danger seed to have already rapidly enveloped the area where Little Bowl and I were, can't continue with this.
I grabbed Little Bowl's shoulder and gently pushed. Originally, this push could directly move Little Bowl outside the city barrier, but now only seeing her comply with my force, step backward, still standing right in front of .
Little Bowl slightly froze, then checked beneath her feet, quickly scanning her surroundings, her expression changed.
I, too, sensed the abnormal changes in our environnt.
The state of ti and space unexpectedly appeared incomprehensibly chaotic. Previously, the space-ti within the city barrier only felt inherently unstable, akin to the deck of a ship on water with intermittent rocking; at this mont, the space-ti felt like a small skiff on stormy sea, as if it would be capsized and swallowed by massive waves at any second.
More bizarrely, only when I focused my attention on it would this sensation of being at the rcy of storm and waves intensely surface; when I tried to disperse my attention, it inexplicably vanished like an illusion. Yet, the chaotic nature of ti and space truly existed and unavoidably obstructed Little Bowl's departure.
This contradictory and bizarre feeling reminded of dreams. If one becos consciously aware of dreaming within a dream, the dream becos shaky; conversely, no matter how flawed the dream, the person would believe everything happening in the dream is vividly lifelike.
Here, there's no setting for "waking up" or "exit," the individual can only confront the stage turned chaotic.
This disorderliness differs from the Apocalypse Chaos Space-Ti I experienced; the latter, although established on the post-mortem world's spiritual nature space-ti, simulates the real state of the material world falling into apocalypse, its chaotic nature is stably existent—though discussing stability in chaos seems contradictory, understanding the aning suffices. Whereas the space-ti here leaves with impressions everywhere are illusions.
Continuing to remain in place is ultimately unfavorable; I held Little Bowl's hand and once again attempted to use Space Transfer. This ti I intend to transfer Little Bowl together to the suburban direction, maintaining distance from the city center area. If it were just myself, it would be fine; now, heaven knows what changes will occur there, need to avoid taking Little Bowl into danger as much as possible.
And this ti Space Transfer was both successful and failed.
The success lay in, I managed to distance ourselves from the original position smoothly with Little Bowl and the failure was far more challenging to accept than the success. After the scene change, I found ourselves surrounded by relatively intact buildings, standing on normal street pavent, surrounded by nurous abandoned vehicles, dark decomposed blood stains scattered on the ground.
We unexpectedly transferred to the city center area!
Very likely, the chaotic space-ti turned my Space Transfer landing point into a random position, and the unfortunate people power entwined in my fate took advantage to significantly adjust the random probability towards positions closer to the event center… this is all I can conjecture.
Imdiately afterward, I utilized the analysis ability and adaptability enhanced by Little Bowl's blessing to explore and decipher the implicit regularity within this chaotic space-ti.
However, this too failed.
It's not because the current state of space-ti is more chaotic than the Apocalypse Chaos Space-Ti due to a sense of targeting. No matter how chaotic, Apocalypse Chaos Space-Ti wouldn't react to prevent soone attempting to adapt and decipher it; whereas the illusory space-ti here very clearly embodies a counterasure program specifically against decipherers.
Within a second, I attempted to decipher its regularity from dozens to hundreds of angles, yet each ti just when I was about to catch a clue, the opposite side suddenly shifted, altering its answer.
Little Bowl seed to also analyze and adapt to the space-ti with her abilities, then revealed a disheartened expression.
The Power of Righteous Heavenly and Earthly isn't a confrontational force, but a dialogue and communication force. There's a saying, "Weapons of criticism don't replace criticism of weapons," in conditions where too powerful an entity presents clear and firm malice, dialogue and communication beco powerless. Faced with the lock and chase unleashed by Catastrophe Demon manipulating the Power of Fate in the past, Little Bowl, capable of utilizing the Power of Fate herself, could only manage to delay ti, unable to leverage her power for favorable change in the situation.
I observed the surroundings with utmost vigilance.
The situation will definitely worsen in the following monts. Given the likely intervention of the Power of Unfortunate people, it surely will evolve towards that direction. Even the fact that Little Bowl can't temporarily leave the city's barrier now is highly likely because she is profoundly influenced by the Power of Unfortunate people.
Then, the mana fluctuations of Taoyuan Village Master ng Zhang thunderously descended.
