Chapter 1625: Solving the Problems

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Since taking charge of messes like the Plane of Dreams, Hao Ren had become more matured, at least mentally.

Having to deal with various ruined civilizations, planetary wrecks, and divine artifacts, especially ancient demigods like Lockmarton, Hao Ren had earned himself the moniker of Bomb Maniac and the Undertaker from his counterparts. He had also acquired nerves of steel in facing all kinds of situations. There was a saying that after working in the morgue for a long time, one would feel at home in the combat zone of the Middle East.

When the dust finally settled, and Hao Ren had gotten his hands on the Amantir crystal, the contamination no longer seemed to be a big deal to him.

The contamination was a nasty problem, though.

Over Platform 3, the Amantir crystal was quietly suspended in the air. It had the same volume and shape as the other two crystals, but the color had changed entirely. The crystal-clear surface was filled with patterns that looked like blood veins, and shadows and dark-red spots on the inside. But these contaminations were nothing compared to the large black spurs that grew out of the underside of the crystal. Some spurs had signs of breakage that seemed to suggest something were once attached to them.

Not long ago, the nerves that extended out from the brain were connected to these spurs.

“The infestation of the Mad Lord has stopped. With the loss of the source of contamination, the chaotic forces that leeched on the crystal could be no longer capable of spreading secondary infection.” Salaman said. “But the damage to the crystal is irreversible. Its structure has distorted, and in this case, the possibility of Amantir crystal resonating with the other two is low.”

“I am examining the equipment here.” Hao Ren nodded slowly. “Collecting and repairing the distorted data by way of deduction and reverse engineering, and reproducing the data of the road signs inside the crystal virtually virtualize is the best way I can think of.”

Salaman nodded in agreement. “Good idea. But I am afraid that merely restore the data is not good enough. We still need the physical structure of the crystal, and it is not so easy to reproduce it physically.”

“If it really does not work, I can only get help from my superior.” Hao Ren’s mouth twitched. “In all likelihood, the goddess would nag me.”

At this time, Salaman already knew about Hao Ren’s background and that an outside god was behind him. The old giant was startled upon hearing what Hao Ren said. “Is it okay for you pass comment about your goddess?”

Hao Ren waved his hand carelessly. “It’s just our culture. By the way, MDT, how are the sprites doing?”

The MDT sounded as if it had gone through the vicissitudes of something. “It is not easy, but at long last, all of them have been unloaded. The guardian giant has provided a new set of node crystals, and the ahoge sprites have been transferred to the new crystals. Now, they should be having fun with their little friends.”

Hao Ren could not help but look into the distance. Earlier, he was still worried about whether the sprites with a stupid dark-red hair on their heads had any problem after reunited with their fellow sprites. After all, the power of the Mad Lord had once contaminated them, and sprites were a super-chicken and neurotic species. It was hard to say if the healthy sprites would not be scared the daylights out of them when they saw their fellow ahoge sprites. But it turned out that Hao Ren’s worries were unfounded. It was not because the sprites had suddenly grown some guts, but it was just that the healthy sprites did not know that the sprites from Amantir had once been infected. Even if they were to learn the truth, they would have completely forgotten about the matter after playing with the Amantir sprites for three minutes.

Even if he massacres their entire family, the sprites would not feel a thing unless they are witnessing it with their own eyes, Hao Ran thought to himself.

Everyone could not put the matter at the back of their mind knowing that the sprites were in good hands. After leaving the lab, Hao Ren began to talk about another thing that still lingered in his mind.

“Could the Denizens of the Stars recover?”

Everyone could not help but look up at the sky where the planet Heart was.

The thick recharging clouds were blocking their line of sight. It was impossible for people standing on the surface to see space above the clouds, let alone the crystalized shield that shrouded the sacred land. But as everyone knew, the minds and lives of the 3,000 Denizens of the Stars were up there, on the planet that had been staying the same for thousands of years.

“They no longer responded to the outside world since three thousand years ago,” Salaman said in his holographic image softly. His voice carried a hint of lamentation and sadness. “The impact has destroyed many souls of the Denizens of the Stars. I am afraid their remaining souls have also diminished during the war that has raged on for the last thousands of years.”

The meaning of the words of the old giant could not be more apparent.

“The war is over, but not a single one of them wake up?” Lily’s ears dropped. “I feel sad.”

A crystal held on a metal suspension ring floated silently up before them. Asurman’s voice came from inside the crystal. “For those of us, the ancients, it is an honor to die on the battlefield. I think my fellow comrades have no regrets.”

“I am sincerely impressed by your faithfulness to the goddess of creation,” Y’zaks said. “There were many deities in my homeworld. Some of them were almost fanatic, but I had never seen any gods who had died for 10,000 years and still had faithful followers like you all who sought for her with no regrets. I am not surprised if the guardian giants display the same faith to the goddess of creation who has created them, but what you all have done for her was beyond me.”

Asurmen was silent for a moment, and then a pleasant sound as if of the wind chimes came out of the crystal. “It has nothing to do with loyalty or faith. Every Ancient has memories of the dark and chaotic period, and only because of this experience, we understand how precious orderliness was under the goddess.

“You probably could not understand how the period was like because you had never experienced it. Or the more so when it comes to how important the appearance of the goddess of creation to us. We had never thought that there could be a goddess as kind and friendly as her in existence in the chaotic and dangerous universe. The Mad Lord was also a god or godlike being. But it was terrible, wild, and cruel in contrast to the goddess of creation who was equally powerful but had mercy and the willingness to save us. Her appearance had not just change the fate of the Ancients but also the trajectory of the universe and all living beings.

“So, we are acting with a faith that is purer than loyalty and belief. If you must say it; it is another form of extreme loyalty. We fight for the goddess of creation and the order of her creation. For every Ancient, maintaining this order is part of the truth, the natural law of the universe on which we depend and survive.”

“Whether a deity could gain eternality does not depend on its power but actions,” said Y’zaks. “The ones in my homeworld quickly self-proclaimed to be gods just because they occupied half of the planes and felt that it would last forever. But they forever could never understand this point.”

Hao Ren had an urge to join the lamentations, but when the image of Raven 12345 holding a bowl of noodles appearing in his mind, he could not agree more with the words of Y’zaks.

The actions of a deity determine it.

For example, about the issue of image.

No matter how bad the image of Raven 12345 in Hao Ren’s mind, he needed her help this time.

The analysis of the Weaves of Destiny hit a roadblock.

While the post-war reconstruction work began, Hao Ren also started on the study of the Weaves of Destiny. He did not want Vivian to sit on the throne recklessly, but it also did not mean that he was not interested in the ‘miracle’ of the goddess of creation. So, he handed the work to the Crapple Research Station (CARS) and the drone cluster. The drones would be the operator on the Heart, sending back data and intelligence to the CARS computer for analysis. Now, Hao Ren had the first report in hand.

“The core command has a severe defect? More than 90% of the instructions are not enforceable?”

Hao Ren could not help but exclaim with surprise.

The MDT, which was also connected with CARS, said, “That’s right. The scientific drones established a direct connection with the system of the Throne of Destiny with the help of the sprites and successfully read its core program. But then, this problem cropped up. There is a problem with the core database, which is used to activate the Weaves of Destiny. Almost all boot instructions are corrupted. It was also the reason for the sudden blue-screen when Vivian tried to connect to the Weaves of Destiny.”

“How could it be? No doubt that the festered army has caused severe damage to the sacred land, but they have never really broken into the defense of the Heart. The Throne of Destiny has remained unscathed for the last thousands of years, how could it be a problem? Hao Ren was all the more baffled. “Could there be sabotage?”

“Concerning this, I have found something,” the MDT said. “The sprites guarding the sacred land have been troubleshooting for many days, but they have never found the real cause of the BSOD until we get involved. I have pinpointed the problem with the computer of CARS.”

Lily, who listened on with interest, suddenly chimed in and said, “The problem is with the sprites?”

“No, it is not with the sprites,” the MDT said. “I have studied the workflow of the sprites. They troubleshot the system by comparing it with the holographic snapshots, which were taken on the day after the completion of the Weaves of Destiny. The snapshots have detailed records of all the original parameters of the network, with which the sprites compared the actual network parameters to find the faults.”

The truth suddenly dawned on Hao Ren.

This Weaves of Destiny was flawed right from the beginning!
