Chapter 238

"Haha, I still have this on me. I almost forgot about it because I haven't used it in so long. Let me try it, OK!"

As if receiving a signal, one of the hair ornaments on Vill-V's head suddenly flashed.

A moment later, a tiny bee struggled desperately, taking almost a minute to break free from the magnificent pair and fly away rapidly.

Vill-V glanced down.

"Have I gained weight? No, it's probably because it's been sitting idle for too long, and the power system isn't as powerful as before."

A moment later, the mechanical bee disappeared, but soon flew back.

It wandered around the room under Vill-V's watchful eye.

Then, as if it had found something, it swooped down and disappeared into the interior of a mechanical structure.

A while later.

Click! Click! Click! Click!

With the four restraints released, Vill-V immediately stood up.

"Alas, the people of this era have ultimately regressed in their technology."

She shook her head, then tiptoed to the door and peeked out furtively.

I glanced down the corridor.

Nobody's here.

"It seems the pressure of war is indeed immense; even the organization's headquarters is nearly deserted."

"But then again, how did my most beautiful audience manage to ensure no casualties while still getting the Schicksal to come out?"

"Oh well, we've already reached an understanding, let's divide the tasks properly!"

Vill-V reached out her hand and let the mechanical bee land on her hand.

After a moment's hesitation, he spoke, "Armory—ah, no, no, no."

She suddenly patted her head.

A fleeting look of melancholy crossed her face in that instant.

Then he smiled and said, "I'm all left now, so doing this will definitely affect my Remembrance —well, back door, back door!"

Half an hour later.

Vill-V appeared in a room at the Schicksal Headquarters.

Only mechanical guards remained, but in her eyes, these things were more likely to betray her than humans.

The All Things Dormant has finally arrived.

"By the way, what about Mobius? Surely their academic discussions won't last all day?"

"However, Anna should be more cooperative."

"--Huh? Someone's here?!"

Hearing footsteps, Vill-V quickly found a corner to hide.

Fu Hua appears.

"Why is Hua here? And he looks even more suspicious than I am..."

After waiting for a while, Hua came out from the next room.

He held the Feather of Dust in his hand.

Vill-V looked at Feather of Dust, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

"Mei actually had a trick up her sleeve?!"

"My God, how come she's even more complicated than I used to be?"

She shook her head in surprise, as if her worldview had just been reshaped.

A short while later, Fu Hua left, and then Vill-V reappeared.

"The Herrscher of Knowledge, Feather of Dust, and Hua... tsk tsk, it seems that when everyone goes crazy, the differences aren't that great."

Soon, as if she had a sudden realization, Vill-V easily and quietly escaped from the Schicksal Headquarters.

Schicksal Laboratory.

Mobius glanced at the time and did some mental calculations.

--Given Vill-V's abilities, she should have already escaped by now.

At this moment, she felt completely at ease.

"Based on the previous speculation, if the so-called Jarilo-VI is real, then it's more likely that he wants to link the Mu Continent to other worlds."

Welt seemed to be deep in thought.

"That sounds more reliable,"

Tesla nodded, then looked at Mobius, "Dr. Mobius, what do you think?"

Mobius rubbed his chin, but didn't answer directly, "Gentlemen, do you think that person named Otto actually changed that moment five hundred years ago?"

Why are you suddenly asking this?

Tesla asked, puzzled.

"I just want to conduct a thought experiment. After all, everyone here is the best talent in Current Civilization, so I hope to hear your opinions."

Nagamitsu said, "It must have succeeded, otherwise he should still be alive and continuing to search for a solution."

Tesla inexplicably felt a chill.

The imagination is terrifying.

"In other words, he most likely succeeded,"

Mobius nodded and said, "Then the question is, what method should we use to verify whether he has succeeded?"

Is it derivation or direct observation?

Upon hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought, puzzled.

Chapter 283 You know, the Divine Key is a weapon with a great mission.

The question posed by Mobius prompted everyone to ponder.

Although Otto was not human, his ability to act on bold speculations was no less than that of a human.

For someone who has lived for over five hundred years and is solely focused on one thing, it's impossible for them to stake everything on it unless there's a truly high degree of feasibility and success rate.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, Otto must have some way to verify whether things were successful or not.

Without taking a look, who can say for sure what happened inside the black box?

Nagamitsu was the first to speak.

"Thousand Worlds One Step,"

She stated, "Although our research on this Divine Key is relatively recent, Otto used it to obtain a specific set of coordinates. Moreover, based on its spatial capabilities, it should possess observational functions."

Mobius's eyes flickered, and she didn't speak first; but that didn't stop others from casting glances at her.

So she replied straightforwardly, "Vill-V has always liked to stuff strange things into her inventions, often meaningless, but she takes the Divine Key very seriously—after all, there are people specifically watching her. I don't really know the specifics, perhaps you could ask her?"

Three.

"Then let's go ask."

Tesla immediately stood up.

"I think we should focus on deepening this understanding first and test the effects of the Thousand Worlds One Step before making any further decisions."

Einstein, however, said...

I also tend to Einstein's view.

Welt nodded.

Tesla shrugged. "Then let's go with the majority. Let's take a look at the Thousand Worlds One Step first. This will help narrow down the scope of our verification and avoid having to ask about every single detail."

The group arrived before the Thousand Worlds One Step.

Since almost all of Schicksal were deployed, the headquarters, apart from these researchers, only had a handful of ordinary people left to fight.

Fortunately, lab assistants and similar personnel lack combat experience and ability, so they can only stay in the lab; there's no shortage of manpower in that area.

With the team working together, the preparations for the test were completed surprisingly quickly.

Before long, the test of observing Parallel World using the Thousand Worlds One Step officially began.

The large screen projector was turned on, but the room remained completely sealed.

The content of the test is confidential, known only to the few scientists involved and Welt, the Anti-Entropy Leader.

Choose the most familiar spacetime coordinates and conduct preliminary tests.

Soon, distorted and unclear images appeared on the projection screen.

Everyone waited quietly, and the scene slowly changed.

As the image on it gradually became clearer, everyone perked up.

Welt, who was in charge of the main operations, deliberately slowed down the movements step by step to prevent the image from distorting again.

But.

Once the image stabilized, everyone wore expressions of utter astonishment.

The chosen time was clearly during the Second Honkai War.

Logically, the scenes that can be seen at this point in time are fixed. Even if someone who should have passed away at that point appears, everyone can attribute it to a timeline issue.

However, on the screen at this moment, someone who shouldn't be there was clearly projected.

Bai Yan.

In the shot, only his profile is visible.

He was staring ahead with an extremely solemn expression.

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Did you encounter any problems during debugging?"

Tesla quickly asked Welt.

"I have a guess,"

Welt pushed up his glasses, his expression complex, and said, "Although the coordinates we chose are from the time of the Second Honkai War, in principle, they are relatively close. In the context of infinite spacetime, a decade or two is actually a very short distance."

"You mean, there was a bias in the observation?"

Nagamitsu asked.

"No, what I mean is, I'm afraid that somewhere unknown, the battle between Bai Yan and Kiana has already completely penetrated the core of the Finality."

"We previously reached a tentative conclusion: the power of the Finality is to reset time."

"That's undeniable, but the problem is, there are probably at least two people vying for power there right now..."

Mobius's lips curled up slightly as he said, "As one aspect of the Finality, even the deceased Herrscher unexpectedly reflect some information about the original body."

"Wrong!"

Tesla suddenly spoke up, frowning, "The core of the Thousand Worlds One Step belongs to Pre-Civilization. How could it reflect a scene from Current Civilization?"

"The subject of observation is at the present point in time."

"That's what Mobius said."

Tesla remained silent, his brow still furrowed.

Einstein had the same question. He looked at the projection, then at Mobius, but found no answer and continued to ponder.

Mobius glanced at the crowd and then spoke again, "Mr. Alliance Leader, why don't we try observing the next point in time? Obtaining more samples will allow us to conduct further analysis."

Welt head, continuing debugging.

The atmosphere was somewhat eerie.
