Chapter 873: The Analysis of the Gilded Disc
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
No matter how many tis Hao Ren speculated, he could not be sure what decision the Goddess of Creation had made in the last three days before the fall. For a Goddess who once created the universe, loved to delve into the truth of the world, and devoted almost all her energies to exploration and learning, she could only do one thing at the ti when she was cornered by the children she had created, it must be sothing extrely important. And she chose to create a powerful and highly intelligent lifeblood and put it on the spaceship of treacherous children. Was she trying to take revenge on the treacherous children? Was she trying to destroy their fleet? Or was she still dreaming of having a good talk with the treacherous children at the last minute, so she sent an envoy there?
No matter which one, the possibility was low, because when Vivian was sent to the battleship, the interstellar barrier had been breached, and the treacherous children might even have started bombing the Star of Creation, whatever Vivian wanted to do, it was too late to save the situation. And more importantly, Vivian just stayed there for a few minutes before leaving for the Surface World, which did not look like she wanted to do anything on the battleship of the treacherous children.
Vivian was silent. Her mind was full of the ideas that others were hard to guess. She suddenly gazed up into Raven’s eyes and asked, “If I absorb the evils directly, can I retrieve my mory?”
“Didn’t I tell you earlier? This is very dangerous.” Raven 12345 shook her head imdiately. “You have to fight dozens of chaotic thoughts with your own ntal will. And the things they rember are very likely to pollute your soul.”
Not just Raven 12345, even Hao Ren would not allow Vivian to take the risk. And he thought the situation was not serious enough to have to put her at risk. Now they just suspect that the Goddess left an order for Vivian. They did not have any evidence, and there were no imdiate issues that need to be resolved with the help of Vivian’s mory. So he put his hand on Vivian’s shoulder and said, “Don’t rush to get your mory back. That’s not necessarily a good way. Let’s find clues in other ways. Maybe we can find the last words of the Goddess of Creation in so other way.
“Oh,” Vivian responded, but she still felt uneasy, which made Hao Ren wondered, because Vivian was usually a very calm person, she had never been feeling so uneasy about anything. But for so reason, she would beco restless whenever soone ntioned the word ‘mories’, and she even repeatedly suggesting the risky idea. Today, she even wanted to absorb all the evil spirits, which was not sothing she would usually do.
“What’s wrong?” Vivian asked when she noticed that Hao Ren was gazing at her.
“Err… Nothing.” Now that Vivian was no longer ntioning the mory, he did not want to remind her of it. He took the last thing he wanted to show Raven 12345 from his Dinsional Pocket: a beautiful and mysterious Gilded Disc. “Boss, I brought this back from the Solenne Gateway. We heard that the Goddess of Creation had been busy creating sothing called the ‘Creation’s Engine’ before the accident. This is a part of it, you see…”
This was the Gilded Disc that Hao Ren took from Lendusa. At first, Lendusa insisted that he must look after the disc with extra care so it would not fall into the wrong hand. However, after seeing a series of efforts Hao Ren had done to revive the Goddess of Creation in Tannagost, he started to trust Hao Ren and allowed Hao Ren to bring the disc back.
Raven 12345 showed great interest after listening to the report of the Creation’s Engine. She looked at Hao Ren with a little surprised and praised, “Very good. You’re able to get so many clues every ti you’re on a mission! Looks like I pick the right people.”
“So my annual bonus…” Hao Ren asked happily.
“No problem,” Raven 12345 snapped her fingers and said, “let see if I can get you so good stuff. But now let’s figure out what this disc is for. The guardian didn’t explain this to you?”
Hao Ren shook his head. “No, the guardians are not very clear about the role of the Creation’s Engine. The Goddess seed to be hiding sothing from them intentionally.”
“Hiding sothing from them?” Raven slightly frowned without saying a word. She ordered the arcane servant to catch the Gilded Disc, and then she waved at the air. The next mont, so mysterious rays of light and lines erged from the air.
Those rays and lines were moving rapidly in the air, gradually condensed into a solid, and then turned into a huge complex platform. The platform was a few ters in diater, made of crystals, slightly sunken in the center, and rune walls floating around like a light barrier. Lines of words were written on the platform. Hao Ren glanced at it and found that those were not runes, but words that he could understand, and the content surprised him:
Give back my machete you idiot! Raven 12345 I’m gonna kill you! Don’t co back if you dare! Do you think you’re safe here? I’ll carve those ugly words all over your house! Raven 12345 stole my machete 1400 years ago but never returned it to ! Intolerable injustice!
“…” Hao Ren and Vivian did not know how to react.
Hao Ren pointed to the handwriting awkwardly and asked, “Can you explain what that is?”
Raven 12345 was stunned for a mont and then said, “How co… Oh, nothing!”
Hao Ren really wanted to get to the bottom of the question, but Raven 12345 had now changed the subject. She threw the Gilded Disc directly onto the crystal platform and then imdiately analyzed it carefully. She looked so serious that she was ready to explode at any ti.
The Gilded Disc floated silently on the crystal platform. The runes around the crystal platform were revolving around the disc as it was rotating. Hao Ren saw the lights flickering around the disc and he seed to have dimly seen sothing between the lights and shadows.
As he looked attentively, he saw the scenes of the Solenne Gateway, and a lot of guardian giants marched through. In so even shorter scenes, he saw an unfamiliar starry sky and huge factory-like facilities. Hao Ren was fascinated by those pictures. He focused even more on them, looking for things that interested him. And soon, he saw a scene of war. He saw the Galaxy of the Solenne Gateway was destroyed in the war. The devastating golden fleet was sweeping across the Goddess’s territory. The scenes kept jumping and zooming in and out, and the last thing he saw was a spaceship, loaded with soldiers in gold and red armor, leaving the ruined Solenne.
When he looked at the face of one of the soldiers, the scene changed again.
The crystal platform was like an ‘extracting’ machine that kept extracting those pictures from the Gilded Disc and the disc was like a 360-degree projector, radiating rays of light. Countless fragnts of the picture appeared along with the flickering lights but Raven 12345 did not pay attention to them. She was busy in a bunch of runes, seed to be searching for a deeper secret in the Gilded Disc.
When all the lights and the operating sound of the crystal platform gradually subsided, Vivian asked curiously, “what’s that?”
“Those were the things that happened around this disc. It seems to have a strong ability to collect information,” Raven 12345 explained. “What you see is the footage of what happened after it left the factory all the way to the mont the Solenne Gateway was breached by the treacherous children. But it is not a specialized recording device after all, so these fragnts are ssy and don’t have much reference value.”
Hao Ren imdiately poked the data terminal and asked, “Have you recorded it?”
“Yes, but I feel there’s nothing valuable in it.” The data terminal felt the sa way. “I will analyze it. You can have a look when you are free, but don’t get your hopes up.”
“Okay, just put it aside.” Hao Ren then turned to Raven 12345 and asked, “Have you figured out the function of the Creation’s Engine?”
“I can’t tell the function of the whole engine from just one small part. But based on a little clue on the disc, I guess the Creation’s Engine has sothing to do with the Wall of Reality.”
