At the same time, the first authority diversion experiment in Evil Swamp Time-Space officially began.
The mechanical experimental platform personally constructed by Saine floated at the center of a relatively stable star sector within Evil Swamp Time-Space.
Tens of thousands of Rule Probes extended from the experimental platform toward every nearby Evil Swamp Node.
These nodes had originally all been controlled by the Evil Spirit King.
Part of their authority had been secretly stolen by the Evil Spirit King during the Lord of Evil Swamp's prolonged slumber.
The other part consisted of stable regions Saine had previously helped the Evil Spirit King sort out from the chaotic Evil Swamp Origin through Node Engineering.
Now, the Lord of Evil Swamp intended to use these nodes as the foundation for his first active authority diversion.
A grayish-green Evil Swamp Tide slowly surged forth from the deepest reaches of time-space.
