"Since the Chairman has so matters to attend to, I’ll head back first," said Anduin astutely.
"No need..." Li Ming stopped him, saying, "Anduin is one of us; speak freely."
It surely wasn’t anything urgent; otherwise, Ulrich wouldn’t have co personally to make his presence felt.
Ulrich imdiately said, "Ten minutes ago, soone caused quite a scene at the third Star Gate Node, demanding to see you."
"Oh?" Li Ming’s eyes subtly shifted; countless individuals across the interstellar space wished to et him. If it were just an average troublemaker, it certainly wouldn’t have been reported to him.
"Who is it?"
Ulrich explained, "After they were captured by the Patrol Guard, they claid to be from the Titan Remnant, saying they have extrely important news for you. The term ’Titan Remnant’ triggered a sensitive word alert, leading it to ."
"Titan Remnant?" Li Ming was slightly perplexed; a Titan Remnant coming to seek him out for no apparent reason?
Anduin beside him also felt rather strange; the Titan Remnant had always avoided this interstellar space, yet now they took the initiative to co.
"Do you want to co along and see?" Li Ming asked Anduin.
"No, they’re here for you; I won’t join the commotion," Anduin declined, knowing he had already been given enough face, and tagging along would be too indiscreet.
"Alright, then you rest for a while with Ulrich; I’ll see what this group of Titan Remnants wants," Li Ming nodded, then instructed Ulrich, "Bring them to the Heavenly Palace."
"Yes."
He first returned to the Heavenly Palace, yet couldn’t help but speculate and even thought of the Titan Holy Artifact. After all, there were still two Holy Castles whose whereabouts were unknown, and they were often on his mind.
He didn’t have to wait long; the Patrol Guard soon brought them over.
In the eting room, Li Ming saw the three peculiar-looking Titan Remnants.
Recorders?
Upon observing the distinctively drooping, teardrop-shaped brains, Li Ming imdiately recognized them.
In the Titan Chronicles, there is a dedicated record of this Titan branch. They were considered the historians of the Titans, responsible for recording and compiling many major events. Most powerful Titans had dedicated Recorders accompanying them.
The Chapters regarding Recorders in the Titan Chronicles occupy quite a few pages, likely because they were the authors.
Even the related materials of the Glory Dynasty were compiled by them. Although they were not adept at evolution, their status within the Titan branch wasn’t low.
For a mont, Li Ming thought of many things but spoke gently, "No need to be formal, have a seat."
Char and his companions appeared sowhat restrained, feeling that the life level of the life form before them was akin to that of a Dominator.
"What would you like to drink?" Li Ming asked as he walked towards the nearby liquor cabinet, "Sothing spicy, or mild, or perhaps another beverage?"
"No, thank you, Your Excellency," Char shook his head and started with a self-introduction, "You can call Char; this is Boris, and this is Gade."
He gestured to his sides, and the three simultaneously crossed their arms, then drew their left fingertips from their brows towards the north, while their right little fingers traced a crescent moon trajectory, slightly bowing to reveal their unique brain structure.
"No need to be so formal." Li Ming raised his eyebrows at the ancient Titan Era etiquette, indicating supre respect towards higher beings.
He then extended his right hand, waving it from front to back, a gesture belonging to the Titans as a response.
Char’s eyes flickered; for the other party to respond to such an unusual gesture suggested that they had ticulously studied the Titan Chronicles.
Finally, Char and his companions sat down, while Li Ming also took a seat before them, warmly saying, "It’s quite a journey you all embarked on."
During the waiting ti, he had reviewed the jump information of their spaceship, with initial records pointing to a very remote Star Gate Node in the Sea of Stars.
"We’re undertaking a mission; no matter the distance, it’s worth it," Char said solemnly.
"Oh." Li Ming squinted his eyes, "You can speak openly."
"We ca because of the Eternal Abyss," Char stated candidly.
Eternal Abyss? Li Ming beca intrigued, slightly raising his head to indicate for them to continue talking.
"I checked your records; you should’ve reached a very high level in the King-making Trial and likely have thoroughly studied the Titan Chronicles, possessing a basic understanding of the Eternal Abyss."
Char may have feared Li Ming wouldn’t believe them, so he emphasized, "However, we will discuss information not recorded in the Chronicles, things transmitted by the Dominators to our ancestors at the end of the war when the tribe was breaking apart, which have been organized and passed down to this day."
Li Ming’s interest grew stronger, his posture straightening to express his earnestness.
After emphasizing, Char didn’t keep Li Ming in suspense, and said in a low voice, "Firstly, it’s about the form of existence of the Eternal Abyss. Are you puzzled as to why the King of Doomsday suddenly appeared to attack you, even though the Eternal Abyss hasn’t entered an active phase?"
No, I’m not puzzled, Li Ming thought to himself.
Char continued, "You must have seen certain descriptions in the Titan Chronicles, suspecting the Eternal Abyss has consciousness, and is not just chaotic surroundings."
"Indeed," Li Ming nodded.
Char said solemnly, "In fact, by the end of the war, the Dominators had already confird that the Eternal Abyss indeed possesses self-awareness, and it’s quite well-developed, comparable directly to a Life Form."
Li Ming slightly frowned; do these droplet-brained guys even need to tell him that, when it had already spoken to him?
Of course, he wouldn’t share this with these folks, but kept a blank face, "Is this the imasurable distance you’ve traveled to tell ?"
Seeing Li Ming apparently unsurprised, Char’s expression slightly changed, and after exchanging glances with the other two, he said, "It seems you know more than we imagined."
Char elaborated, "Then you should know that before the Evolution Era, before the Titans’ Evolution Era, there were many other Evolution Eras."
"However, they were all devoured by the Eternal Abyss, which, on one hand, is due to the Universe’s rules, and on the other, it has its own purpose."
The Eternal Abyss’ purpose? Li Ming beca even more solemn.
"It wants to overthrow the Universe," Char uttered a few words.
"Overthrow the Universe?" Li Ming slightly frowned.
"That’s sowhat broad," Char further explained, "The Eternal Abyss is fundantally an ergency managent chanism of the Universe; once certain factors in the Universe reach a threshold, it activates."
"Such chanisms are common, whether in Dinsion Space, the planets of the Main Universe, or even in Life Forms."
"But the fatal issue is that this chanism developed self-awareness, and it’s not satisfied with appearing only when needed; it wants to take full control of the Universe."
"This phenonon has been occurring for a long ti; the Eternal Abyss, in past Evolution Eras, had devoured plenty of cosmic power."
"However, even though the Universe lacks self-awareness, it still has instincts, continuing to suppress it during tis when the Eternal Abyss isn’t allowed to erge."
Li Ming furrowed his brow, none of this information was overly surprising to him, nor did he care about the Eternal Abyss’ objectives, as his primary target had already shifted to him.
Resolute, he actively inquired about the information he wanted, "Then, what specific factors impact the activity of the Eternal Abyss, the quantity of Ultimate Life Forms?"
Char and his companions’ expressions changed, sensing Li Ming seed indifferent to what they were saying.
Self-awareness, devouring the Universe, only the Dominators knew how profoundly shocking these revelations were when they discovered it.
"Don’t you believe what we’re saying?" Char hesitated.
Li Ming was sowhat annoyed, perceiving these individuals as equivocal, wanting to pry open doors yet hesitating to enter, so he straightforwardly declared:
"Let tell you directly, I don’t care about what the Eternal Abyss’ purpose is; its primary target right now is definitely to kill , don’t ask why, it’s simply that its foremost goal is to eliminate ."
"So Tanwus arrived for this reason; therefore, no matter what earth-shattering aim it has, it must co after ."
"Consequently, whatever you know, spill it quickly, I’m getting a bit impatient."
