Chapter 8: The Missing Evil God and Possible Experiments 7200
The vast majority of all information in the database is publicly available.
In the Glorious Era, the leaders of civilization, led by sages and gods, divided the authority of the entire civilization members into seven levels, of which the ordinary people who had the right to serve and citizenship were the four levels, and those above and below them were divided into 'upper three' and 'lower three' respectively.
The upper three levels, the fifth level are the extremely strong, the ruler of a place. The sixth level is close to the legend, on the verge of ascending to the gods, or the real legend, the sub-god powerhouse, and the leader of a large force. And the highest seventh level means the supreme authority of the gods and sages, the leader of a civilization.
The lower and third levels are tourists, ambassadors and immigrants from other civilizations, who have access to some public facilities but do not have access to some important communities. The second level is the refugees of other civilizations, who only have the right to stay in certain half-planes, and the lowest level is the minor criminal who can be reformed, and they are serving hard labor, they have no rights other than serving prison labor, but after confirming that the rehabilitation is completed and the sins are offset, they can directly rise to the fourth level of citizens.
Outside of the seventh-level clearance, there are 'untouchables', in this category, there are death row prisoners, chaos corrupters, cultists, and all kinds of vicious anti-social, anti-human and anti-civilization elements who are judged to be 'unreformable', 'unassimilable', 'unusable', and 'worthless', and their end is only a neat death, and there is no other possibility.
Except for the upper and lower levels, which are separated by the citizen class, the hierarchy of permissions is not very useful in reality, and the application is very vague, but for the big database, it is the only indicator to identify the right to read information.
Ninety percent of the information can be read by the citizen class with permission 4, only 12 percent of the information is open to temporary tourists at the lower levels, members of other countries, and criminals in service, and the remaining 10 percent of the important information that is hidden can only be viewed by the powerful people at and above the extreme level.
The human beings of the Starfall Era, because the bloodline is in the same vein as the Glorious Era, so basically all of them have been granted the most basic fourth-level citizen permissions, and many of them are profound, and even obtained the fifth and sixth levels of high-level permissions, just like Joshua, he doesn't have to do anything, just stop at the door, and the big database is directly granted the sixth-level permission-listen to him, if he wants, he can also immediately get a special permission called 'Sage Inheritor'.
But No. 3 is different, maybe not many people still know about this matter, remember, but she did obtain the inheritance rune of the 'Sky God Ger' of the Glorious Age in the past - she is the only one in the entire Starfall civilization, including Pope Eagle of the Church of the Seven Gods, who is not a god, but has obtained the existence of the 'Seventh God Authority'!
And the reason why No. 3's eyes are wide is because she actually relied on her special permission to find a lot of 'hidden information' among the many materials about the evil god!
"It's a magical picture and video of fighting evil gods! How did they survive?! β
The artificial intelligence girl was extremely shocked when she just scanned the directory with a data link, because these important information hidden under a large amount of surface data were all first-person combat information! This is simply incredible, because according to the current understanding of everyone, the existence of evil gods cannot be described or recorded.
It's like when Joshua, Hotaru, Rin, Kuro and Lolanda went to the world of Irgena and participated in the decisive battle between the Father of Nature and the Scourge Evil God, all five of them witnessed the indescribable and incomparably distorted 'Evil God Projection' after the Cataclysmic Meteorite. But to this day, there is still no one who can accurately describe and restore the image of the projection of the Scourge Evil God, even if Joshua lets go of his memories and lets the Spirit Lord William copy it.
But in the Glorious Era, it is obvious that the 'chaotic information disturbance effect' of the evil gods has been solved, and they can use advanced technology to restore the unspeakable evil gods to a form that can be described!
Originally, No. 3 should have notified the legendary powerhouses who were in other information storage halls, such as Barbarossa and Faina, as soon as possible, and asked them to accept and transfer these most precious first-hand evil god battle information, but the artificial intelligence girl was keenly aware that these sealed information seemed to be stored in an extremely complex form, and if she didn't continue to observe, then this information would naturally collapse and disappear, and disappear.
There was no way for No. 3 to guarantee that these materials would be reproduced, so she could only continue to read them by herself, and set up a semi-autonomous magic projection to inform other legendary powerhouses.
Among the countless complex data, there are thousands of pictures and information floating up and down, but the first thing No. 3 sees is the war log of a legendary powerhouse in the past.
[After 41 days of all-out war, the support troops going to the world of Karlis were raided by the evil god of 'Famine', the flagship 'Transcendence' was involved in the turbulence of time and space, more than 134,000 people were swallowed by chaos, and the Ninth Independent Army was defeated...... At this point, the surrounding world has all fallen, all adjacent space-time realms have been blocked, and we have completely lost the channel to communicate with the outside world. γ
[After 288 days of all-out war against the enemy, the seventh abyss was destroyed, and His Majesty Geer extinguished the sun of that abyss, turning the entire world into an extremely cold ice prison, blocking 1.7 million demon reinforcements with absolute zero. These remnants who are in the same stream as chaos don't want to think about it, they are also lives, and their world may also be destroyed by evil gods, why should they help the damn evil gods destroy the civilization of order?! γ
[His Majesty Geer was attacked by the evil gods, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, fortunately, the Wingman Legion was not defeated, and they even wanted to launch a counterattack - but the current situation does not allow for the existence of blood and hatred, and we must calmly stick to the fairy fortress, otherwise the chaos clan that is a hundred times larger than us will trample on all our determination and glory. γ
[After 532 days of all-out war, another world was drained by the god of the earth, the flames in the center of the earth were completely extinguished, and the surface of the earth was as pale as a burned torch. But it's all about fighting Chaos, and at least we've moved all of our uncivilized primitive races into sanctuary...... If we don't drain the energy of this world, the evil gods will also devour it out, and we are not wrong. γ
[We drained another sun's energy to resist the onslaught of the 'unbalanced' and 'decaying' gods...... Ha, the surrounding star fields are dim, even if the war is won, the once magnificent Thousand Star Fields will turn into darkness. γ
γβ¦β¦ The sages have returned! He slew the god of abundance at the bottom of the abyss! But the appearance of the sage did not look good, and he was escorted into the 'center of creation' by the saints, and the mother of all things was more serious than ever...... God, without the sages, we would never have been able to prevail in this desperate situation, and I hope that all is well. γ
[The horn of the counterattack has sounded, all that I love, if I can return to my hometown......]
After the short log, there are many scattered pictures and videos, which should be the pictures and videos of the battle of this legendary powerhouse of the Glorious Era during the 'counteroffensive' period, because the battle log has no follow-up, it is obvious that he should have died in this counteroffensive.
Of course, it is also possible that he did not die, after all, the large information base was shot away to the periphery of the dark star field before the war ended, maybe the information base was shot away during this great counteroffensive, and naturally there will be no next information.
No. 3 sighed silently in her heart, and she 'flipped through' the infinite stream of data, continuing to browse through the details of this counteroffensive.
To this day, the Starfall Age didn't know much about the specifics of that war, and they couldn't even imagine what the Age of Glory's Mycrof civilization relied on to fight and win against the endless evil gods and their clansβand now, they could finally learn a little bit about the hidden information in the Great Unified Database.
Although it seems that the Shining Era has solved the problem of chaos disturbance of the evil gods, due to energy fluctuations and perspectives, many of the pictures of the battle are unusually unclear, or the perspective is very strange, and it is impossible to get much valuable information at all.
This is a frontal battlefield against an unknown evil god, and it can be seen that high-energy flames are burning in the sky, the wreckage of huge void warships falling from the sky, and above the gray-black sky, there are huge wriggling, twisted and amorphous shadows hanging - the sun has been extinguished, the world is doomed, but in its final moments, the dazzling energy of both sides of the war has shone through every corner of the world, making it brighter than any time in the past.
First image:
Five bright and sun-like points of energy are suspended in mid-air, and the presence represented by the lens itself should be the sixth. They charged in the face of a huge black energy vortex that had already occupied most of the sky and was constantly spinning, and the strong high-energy fluctuations even caused the surrounding peaks to collapse, and the extremely hot and intense radiation melted most of the mountain and turned into rushing lava.
Second image:
In the chaotic energy debris, the four suspensions of the black vortex were shattered by the combined efforts of the points of light, and the dark chaotic position in the center was directly pierced, revealing a hazy cloud in the center, and it was difficult to distinguish what it was.
It was surrounded by three rings of matter that looked like starrings, and on them were pulsed with twisted and strange runic paths. The clouds released a large number of dark black ripples at this time, indiscriminately attacking everything around them, and the existence represented by the lens itself raised its hand and propped up a translucent defensive barrier, as if to block the invasion of those ripples.
Third image:
The perspective suddenly changed, and it seemed that the owner of the camera had been knocked down to the ground, and in the background of the flames that had been scorched and were still burning, only one of the other five points of light could be seen still struggling in the dark ripples, and the others were shot down to various parts of the world. But the most strange thing is not this, after all, the opponent is an evil god, how strong it is not strange, what is really puzzling is the hand of the owner of the camera, originally it could be seen that it was a pair of weathered middle-aged hands, wide and powerful, but now what I see from the lens is a pair of hands that seem to be underage teenagers and girls, slender and fair, and there is no power at all.
The owner of the camera is trying to stand up at this time, and he can be seen supporting the ground with his hands, but this is a very easy action for ordinary people, but now it has become very difficult.
Fourth image:
All the points of light were shot down, but three more flew up. The dim vortex hanging above the sky was already very bright at this time, and its core turned into a silver-gray light mist, but the strange thing was that after the cloud at the core of the black vortex turned silver-gray, it no longer carried out any attacks, and even let the three points of light erupt into various terrifying attacks to attack itself.
It seemed to be in a strange state of stagnation, until it was nearly wiped out.
When Number 3 saw this, the operation of the entire soul center came to a standstill for a moment, because judging by her incomparable experience, that silver-gray mist of light was extremely similar to Joshua's power of steelβor rather, it was the power of steel! An AI girl who has seen countless times of warriors wielding the power of steel can be sure of her judgment.
But why? Obviously, those points of light are the legends of the Glorious Era world, the sub-god powerhouse, and in the center of the black vortex, the hazy cloud is undoubtedly the body of a powerful evil god, and several legends charged to the death, but only smashed the barrier on its periphery, just a slight counterattack, knocked all the legends to the ground, and even made them young and powerless.
But how could such an evil god suddenly derive such a majestic power of steel? And after deriving these forces of steel, how could it suddenly stop and allow other legends to launch devastating attacks on itself?
"Damn, you'd better hurry up and reply!"
There were many doubts in her heart, No. 3 was extremely looking forward to other legends at this time, or rather, hoping that Joshua would receive notifications from her other projections, and come to the big database as soon as possible to watch these picture information with herself, and she vaguely smelled an unusual smell from these seemingly ordinary image photos.
Immediately after, the AI girl saved the images and opened the following video.
First video:
With a bloody battle cry, as well as the terrible sound of wind brought by the changes of heaven and earth, silver pillars of light fell from the sky, knocking the earth out of huge cracks one after another, these cracks went straight to the center of the earth, and you can see the depths of the center of the earth that have been drained of energy, and the lava has cooled and solidified, but with the fall of the silver pillar of light, the cooled furnace of the center of the earth actually has a tendency to re-burn and start again.
"[Debilitating] The evil god has changed form? This is a phenomenon that has never been observed before, and it seems that it is no longer able to distort the form of matter, reducing our bodies to weakness, and can only use strange beams of energy that make little sense...... Now is the time! β
In the noisy battlefield, an unknown legend can be clearly heard roaring loudly: "Charge with me, forward against the pillar of light!" β
Second video:
The brighter and brighter clouds around the evil god cloud no longer looked like a black vortex, but like a dark gray planetary ring, with a strange rainbow halo circulating on it, a total of nine legends regrouped, and began to rapidly approach the name again. The weakened evil gods, and the ground troops are constantly using all kinds of terrifying and advanced magic weapons to resist, hindering the evil gods' clans from hindering the battle of the strong, but everyone was surprised to find that these evil gods who were originally floating in the air, covering the sky and earth like clouds, actually began to collapse in large quantities, turning into black points of light and disappearing without a trace.
"What's going on, the chaos counter-emergency is declining rapidly, and the family is all dying out by themselves?"
"What is this evil god doing, is it committing suicide? Could it be that its name is 'self-destructing'?! β
The loud voice with a thick dwarf accent followed the spiritual network, reverberating through the skulls of all the legendary powerhouses, but no one glared at the noisy fellow, because everyone was shocked by the inexplicable actions of the evil god.
The third video:
The battlefield has left the world and come to the void, and the overly powerful energy light flow has made the dark and barren void also brilliant and colorful, and nearly ten legends have quickly followed behind a silver 'meteorite', which should be the body of the so-called 'weak' evil god before. But for no reason, its original chaotic and formless cloud image had turned into a silver meteorite that exuded the aura of steel power, which suddenly gave it an extra entity and countless weaknesses.
After years of war, the owner of the camera and his comrades naturally will not let go of this opportunity, and the debilitating evil god at this time is no longer able to use his signature debilitating ripples to restore the enemy to his very weak moment. Without this core chaotic ability, the weakened evil god, which was not very powerful in the first place, was naturally unable to resist the attacks of many Legends and Void fleets, so it immediately chose to flee to the edge of this new river of the world.
"The weakened evil god has been defeated!"
"We've repelled an evil god!"
"It's so special - the Central Chaos Research Institute wants us to track down the Weakened Evil God, preferably some living tissue! An evil god capable of transmuting the power of chaos and steel, this is something that has never been seen before! β
In the video, many points of light converge, including the owner of the lens. They took their troops and warships and hurried in the direction of the weakened evil god.
End of video.
All information came to an abrupt halt.
No. 3 continued to look through the other pictures and videos, but in the end, she had to admit that the third clear video was the final scene - a total of nine legendary powerhouses, with their own Void fleet, chasing a strange and seriously injured evil god, and there was no news since.
Maybe it was because the Great Repository was knocked away, maybe they were ambushed by other Chaos Gods on the way to the pursuit, or maybe there were all kinds of other possibilities, but in this case alone, it was all over.
ββ¦β¦ What's going on, that's gone? β
No. 3 looked at the number of the hall where he was incredible, No. 447 of the information hall, it was obvious that this was not the last storage hall of the Great Database, Hall 551 was the last data before the Great Database was shot away, which meant that the great counteroffensive lasted for a long time, and there were unimaginable amounts of information about various wars and evil gods during the period, but because of this, No. 3 felt extremely strange.
The news of the entire nine legendary powerhouses, as well as a seriously injured evil god, seems to have been completely ignored, and in the information after that, there is neither information about the reappearance of these nine legendary powerhouses, nor is there a notice that a certain evil god has been killed, and the 'weak' evil god is not even among the twenty-one evil gods with titles before, it is a special evil god that has been deliberately concealed in historical information!
This is very incredible, because for some reason, the weakened evil god actually derived a large amount of steel power from chaos, this kind of transformation of chaos and order is exactly what the sages pursued at the beginning, and there is no reason why the strong people of the Glorious Era would not pay attention...... Wrong.
Perhaps, it is precisely because the sages and the gods pay too much attention to this 'weak' evil god that after this, there is no after...... Even the big repository is being hidden, making it truly top-secret.
Think about it, the nine legends who mysteriously disappeared from the battlefield, and the evil god who was seriously injured...... Number 3 couldn't believe what kind of secrets were hidden behind this deliberately concealed history.
Wow.
Soon after, a steady stream of footsteps could be heard outside the Consultation Storage Hall 447, and as there was a knock on the door, Number 3 opened the door, and the three legendary spellcasters, Barnier, Barbarossa, and Faina, came forward in confusion, and for some reason Number 3 sent an urgent notice to call them over.
"Ms. 3, what news did you find?"
Barnier is not Joshua, and in the face of an artificial intelligence older than himself, he naturally calls 'Madam'. The rune master habitually made a joke: "Could it be that he found the treasure map left by the sage and got the magical exercises he practiced at the beginning?" This is a remarkable discovery. β
Naturally, No. 3 would not respond to such a blunt greeting, and she directly sent the important information she retrieved to all the legends present.
At the beginning, everyone didn't care, the battle log of a legendary powerhouse in the Glorious Era was just that, although it filled in a lot of historical gaps and obtained many war records, it was all in the past, no matter how important it was, it didn't matter how important it was.
But when they saw the back, when they saw the nine legendary powerhouses tracking down the seriously injured evil god and disappearing into the void, everyone's eyes became solemn.
"Wait, you're saying that there will be no more information about these nine legends and evil gods after that?"
Barbarossa went through the data over and over again, but the truth was that no matter how many times he flipped through it, he couldn't find the data he imagined, and the eyes of the extremely clever spellcaster suddenly became sharp: "We have a list of evil gods that have been destroyed, and the names of the evil gods that are still alive, but 'weakness' is not among the two......
"It may have been wiped out, or it may still be alive...... But it can't just disappear into thin air. β
Fayna frowned, and the Sage Lady said in a low voice: "According to Count Radcliffe, the reason why the Steel Python in our McCrove world was corrupted by chaos is precisely because the Sage and the Steel Python did an experiment on the 'mutual transformation of order and chaos' - the result of the experiment was not good, the Steel Python was eroded and almost fell, but the result was not bad, the world that was about to collapse was restored to order for a period of time, and not long ago, it was completely repaired by Count Radcliffe. β
"Obviously, even a sage would not be so arrogant as to do some experiments on chaos and order transformation on a whim. He must have been inspired by some of the foreshadowing experiments, and after a number of successful examples, he would like to use this method to repair the McCrove world. β
Barnier answered, and he muttered, "There is no doubt that the strange changes that have taken place in this 'weak' evil god should be the source of the sage's inspiration...... It must have died, at least as experimental material by the sages, and the question is, where did the sages do the experiments? Can we find the location of His laboratory? Is there any remnants left of the 'debilitating' god that will allow us to continue our research? β
Everyone present nodded in agreement, after the final battle, it was impossible for the sage to leave the Microf world too far, at least not from this world galaxy, he must have conducted several experiments on order and chaos in some hidden place that other beings did not know...... After all, the war had just ended at that time, and even the sages probably didn't want to deliberately stimulate the fragile nerves of all races and try to touch the forces of chaos.
Although it is only a guess, this speculation is quite reasonable, and it can be matched with the information and historical process that everyone knows today, so it is better to take this speculation directly as true and then make the next inference.
In the process of many legendary inferences, although No. 3 did not speak, she also had a rather bold idea in her heart.
- I don't know why, but if the chaos pollution caused by the evil god can really be restored to order...... So those polluted and eroded worlds, such as the world of Karlis, which still has large expanses of desert and sand plains, may really be able to be truly restored to a normal order world?
The sage failed because the time left for him to experiment was too short, and the Mycrof world, which was on the verge of destruction, did not give him any extra chance, and now, although there is not enough time left for the Mycrof civilization, he can at least try......
This process must be extremely difficult, even very dangerous, but if you don't try, the difficulty will always be difficult, the danger will always be dangerous, and someone will always have to take that step to explore in this direction.
"At least."
The artificial intelligence closed its eyes, and the girl sighed in her heart again: "This is one of the few things I can do for my hometown." β
β¦β¦ Time passes.
Just as the three Legendary Spellcasters had already left Hall 447 and headed to the numbered database to see if they could retrieve any clues about the mysterious whereabouts of the 'Weakened Evil God' and the Sage, there was an obvious fluctuation in time and space, and the sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor that integrated the Great Database.
No. 3, who was still continuing to transmit data, turned his head in surprise, and after a short wait, a familiar voice sounded outside the door of Information Hall 447.
"The sudden emergency summons really scared me...... Number 3, what's wrong? β
The door opened, and Joshua, who was a step late, immediately reached out to catch the artificial intelligence girl who pounced and hugged his waist, he blinked, and asked with some doubts: "What's the matter with me?" β
