Ronan watched the "sea" by the "shore."
From time to time, contact signals still came from deep within the "sea"—that was, from the material universe.
His team members would report their progress in real time, and command would issue intermittent orders as well. These were all duties a "commander" needed to fulfill.
However, these signals were too weak.
Ronan's "Giant Pseudo-Ancient God Structure" was nothing worth mentioning compared to a true "Ancient God."
But the stimulation provided by this kind of information flow, focused on a single Genetic Species or a small collective of them, was far too weak, far too ordinary.
It was like meaningless water flowing past the "bait." To him, the "Night Angler," it did not even count as a tiny shrimp, and he simply could not be bothered to respond.
Fortunately, he was not in the focal area right now, nor at any important post...
However, Ronan really was paying attention to the same area and the same subject as the "North District Pressure Relief Command."
"Myriad Transformations Deep Blue" had not descended from the heavens, and the "Polar Domain" had not raised his computing power either. Instead, it had increased his consumption.
Ronan had still come here because he was thinking, If computing power isn't enough, I'll make up for it with structure.
Since he could not directly obtain the answer, he went for a "whole-parts-whole" approach.
By relying on a rough "overall concept," he obtained detailed data from each part, then carried out an overall refinement and compared it against the earliest "overall concept."
What the ideal state looked like, and what the actual situation... roughly looked like.
He would not consider the details. He would look at the newly refined model and see which areas, compared to the ideal state, had been "contaminated"
