"What's wrong, Zhi Xin? Has Lin Ye disappeared?"
Angel Yan hurried forward and peered into the confinement chamber.
The room was empty. Even the energy pillar that had originally restrained him had vanished.
Lin Ye had disappeared?
Yan froze for a moment, then nudged the stunned Zhi Xin beside her. "Zhi Xin, what exactly happened?"
"I don't know either." Zhi Xin felt like crying. "Lin Ye was obviously locked inside. Then he said he wanted to sleep, so I left."
"Clearly, saying he wanted to sleep was a lie. How could you be so careless?"
"I-I didn't know he could leave either."
As the two wing guards argued, white light flashed through Holy Kaisha's cold eyes. She began accessing the Sacred Knowledge Repository and traced back what had happened here roughly half an hour earlier.
When she saw how Lin Ye had escaped, Kaisha was briefly taken aback. He had actually cracked the energy pillar with his bare hands?
"Stop arguing. This human called Lin Ye is smarter than you imagine."
"Yes."
Upon hearing the Queen speak, Zhi Xin and Yan dropped to one knee.
"But Queen, how did he leave?" Zhi Xin still could not understand. She had to get to the bottom of it.
"He cracked the energy pillar and walked out directly." Kaisha turned and left, tossing those words over her shoulder without looking back.
Yan and Zhi Xin were both shocked. He had cracked the energy pillar? Even creatures with Third Generation Divine Bodies could be imprisoned in this specially designed confinement chamber.
Lin Ye had cracked the energy pillar. First the Heavenly Blade Judgment, then the energy pillar.
This guy...
What kind of monster was he? Could he possibly be wiser than angels like them, who had lived for tens of thousands of years?
Just then.
Holy Kaisha's voice drifted over like an echo through an empty valley.
"Activate angel alert status. Lock down Merlot Heavenly Court. We must find this human."
"Yes!"
Meanwhile.
Lin Ye had already reached the outskirts of the Angel Grand Research Institute, where a special white energy barrier blocked his path.
Huh, this energy barrier was even more sophisticated than the restraint that had imprisoned him.
Lin Ye reached out and touched the energy barrier. Ripples spread from the point of contact, and a tingling electric sensation traveled from his palm.
With a thought, Lin Ye directly activated the Concept Rewrite Engine.
"Activating Concept Rewrite Engine. Command: analyze target."
"Target is a protective barrier established by Sky Base King Hexi, one of the universe's foremost lifeforms. Deconstructing..."
Five seconds passed.
Only then did the Concept Rewrite Engine breach the energy barrier.
"Ding! Host successfully decomposed the protective barrier and received 50 Decomposition Value."
As expected of Sky Base King Hexi. The energy barrier she had set up had actually required a full five seconds from the Concept Rewrite Engine.
Admiration flashed in Lin Ye's eyes. He became even more eager to meet Sky Base King Hexi and see whether he could decompose some of her technological creations.
For example, a devastating weapon like Star Fate, or a Celestial Computer.
Buzz!
The energy barrier before him dispersed like rippling water, revealing a passage as tall as a person. Lush greenery filled the passage, and the fragrance of flowers and grass drifted over with the breeze, refreshing his mind.
There shouldn't be a trap, right?
After a brief hesitation, Lin Ye stepped into the passage.
The moment he entered the Angel Grand Research Institute, Merlot Heavenly Court sounded with piercing alarms. Angels flew past the area where Lin Ye had previously been, but because Hexi disliked being disturbed, they did not approach the Angel Grand Research Institute.
Inside the Angel Grand Research Institute, the outside alarms were completely cut off. Lin Ye merely kept his head down, searching for technological creations, utterly unaware that Holy Kaisha, one of the strongest beings in the universe, had already fixed her eyes on him.
Inside the Angel Grand Research Institute.
Crack! Crack!
Before a wall resembling glass, Lin Ye withdrew his hand, looked at the spiderweb-like cracks spreading across the surface, and gave it a gentle puff.
Crash!
The glass wall, made of an unknown material, instantly shattered into fragments, scattering shards all over the floor.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have received 500 Decomposition Value."
"What the hell is this? The Concept Rewrite Engine actually took a full minute to crack it."
Hearing the notification in his mind, curiosity rose in Lin Ye's eyes as he looked through the glass wall.
The reward for decomposing a glass wall was equivalent to decomposing the Heavenly Blade Judgment five times.
With such airtight defenses, what exactly was hidden inside?
Lin Ye passed through the glass wall. The moment he entered, a scene brimming with futuristic technology came into view. Planets of various colors moved steadily along their orbital tracks, while butterfly-like creatures fluttered among them, forming layer after layer of the defensive Heavenly Blade systems that made up Merlot Heavenly Court.
Beep, beep, beep...
Occasional mechanical calculation sounds echoed through the space, making it feel intensely sci-fi.
This was a laboratory, a laboratory dedicated to researching celestial bodies.
The scene was like a science-fiction blockbuster brought into reality.
Lin Ye was stunned by the breathtaking technological sight before him and stood there in a slight daze.
This laboratory was simply too beautiful!
It was filled with technological creations of every kind, and at the very center stood a computational trajectory formed from celestial bodies. It was a Celestial Computer.
After all, every living being had limits to their processing power and required the assistance of a Celestial Computer to help with calculations.
Even Holy Kaisha had the Sacred Knowledge Repository to assist her calculations.
And the Celestial Computer with the greatest processing power in the entire Super God universe was the Great Clock controlled by Death God Karl.
Below it were the Sacred Knowledge Repository and Hexi's Heavenly Blade Computing Cluster.
This gorgeous and awe-inspiring technological creation before him was precisely a Celestial Computer!
If he had a Celestial Computer too, it might be able to assist the Concept Rewrite Engine's calculations.
Lin Ye reached out and touched the futuristic creation. His eyes gleamed with excitement as he impatiently activated the Concept Rewrite Engine.
"Concept Rewrite Engine activated. Designation: analyze target."
"This target is a new-generation Celestial Computer, a research achievement of Sky Base King Hexi. Analysis difficulty is high!"
"Attempting decomposition. 1s... 5s. Decomposition failed!"
"The target is excessively profound. Activating Concept Rewrite Engine overload operation."
"Decomposing. Estimated countdown: ten minutes."
Listening to the voice deep within his mind, Lin Ye realized that the Concept Rewrite Engine had actually entered overload operation.
Since this Celestial Computer had been stored in such an impenetrable place, it was clearly extremely valuable.
With a ten-minute countdown, he needed to carefully consider his next move.
Even if he learned the knowledge behind the Celestial Computer, he might not be able to take it away. To build one himself, he would need an enormous amount of manpower and resources.
Nor could he return empty-handed. He had to find a way to gain the greatest possible benefit.
Lin Ye stroked his chin and thought rapidly.
He had already cracked quite a few technological creations along the way and acquired knowledge about them.
With such a vast reserve of knowledge, he could completely create a technological creation with his own hands.
As for a reference, the Celestial Computer before him was the best possible model.
So what should he study?
After a while.
Lin Ye raised his head, two sharp glints flashing in his eyes. Based on his experience reading science-fiction novels in his previous life, he thought of something that could replace a Celestial Computer!
It was the Sophon invented by the Trisolarans in The Three-Body Problem!
The principle behind the Sophon was to weld circuits onto protons, the smallest microscopic particles, thereby creating a supercomputer.
Lin Ye had always believed that people in the Super God universe had overlooked the microscopic particle level.
By creating a Sophon, perhaps he could guard against others on the microscopic level.
Even without the knowledge of Trisolaran civilization, he could apply the operating principles of a Celestial Computer to protons and perhaps handcraft a Sophon.
With a microscopic supercomputer, he could increase the operating speed of the Concept Rewrite Engine!
More importantly, a Sophon was incredibly easy to carry, so he would not have to worry about the angels inspecting him.
Thus, Lin Ye immediately got to work. While using the Concept Rewrite Engine to read the Celestial Computer's information, he gathered a ball of white light in his palm and began handcrafting a Sophon.
