Chapter 697: Emergency Escape
Young Li Yang closed the book and turned to face those people: "I found it, but... the result is not optimistic."
"Tell us." On the other side, a taller man said.
Young Li Yang took a deep breath: "According to the information obtained from the [God's Realm], the [Origin] we have fought together may not be the real enemy."
"What?" several people exclaimed at the same time.
"Yeah... I don't believe it either, but from studying the information read and transcribed, it's true."
Young Li Yang continued, "The real threat comes from existence in higher dimensions."
"That being wants to destroy all reality, and the [origin] we see as a threat is actually trying to stop it."
When Li Yang and Ella, who were hiding behind the bookshelf, heard these words, they looked at each other with doubtful expressions.
Li Yang frowned: "The [origin] is one of our own? This is a novel theory..."
"This place should be one of the worlds woven by the [system], right? But the data they come into contact with may be different from what we know before."
Before he could finish his words, the surrounding scene suddenly began to distort and collapse.
The blurry figures of young Li Yang in the library began to become blurred and broken.
"What's going on?" A little panic flashed across Ella's face.
Li Yang looked particularly calm: "Calm down, if nothing else happens, this should be the collapse of the time and space node."
"We just have to find a way to get out of here!"
[Warning: Space-time anomaly detected]
[Recommendation: Evacuate immediately]
As the [Database] beep sounded, a white light once again enveloped the two of them.
When the light dissipated, they found themselves back in the original quantum superposition state space.
Li Yang stood quietly on the spot. After thinking for a while, he turned back to look at Ella: "Are you okay?"
Ella nodded: "I'm fine...but Li Yang, what we just saw..."
"I know," Li Yang interrupted her, "It may not be true. After all, there have been external intrusions before."
"What I saw just now may be information confusion caused by external interference."
As soon as he said this sentence, the prompt sound of [Database] sounded at the right time:
[Analysis results: The credibility of the information in the space-time node is 78.6%]
[Warning: System interference has been detected and some data may have been tampered with]
[Suggestion: Please collect the missing data as soon as possible to complete the task]
Li Yang nodded slowly, then raised his hand and pointed: "We have found it. If nothing else, it is the thing in front, right?"
As Li Yang said.
After he was teleported out of the node just now, he saw the [Heart] floating there at first glance.
A small dark gray mechanical body floats quietly among countless changing things.
The energy erupting from it is distorting the surrounding reality with extremely powerful force.
Li Yang slowly stepped forward, raised his hand and touched it...
[Data has been read...]
[Congratulations on unlocking a new mythical plant illustration: Quantum Shaper·Imulator]
[Effect: This plant can be used to create a constant quantum superposition space in a designated area. The beings in it will lose the ability to observe the surrounding environment. Unless they are observed from the outside, they will never be able to escape.]
【Mission Update】
[New goal: collect more information about high-dimensional existence]
[Warning: The difficulty of the mission has increased, please proceed with caution]
"Another mythical plant..." He murmured in a low voice, "This time the ability is quite special."
Ella walked to Li Yang and looked at the dark gray mechanical body curiously: "Is this the source of the quantum superposition here?"
Li Yang nodded: "Well, this [heart] ability is quite special."
"It can create a constant quantum superposition state space, and people inside will lose the ability to observe the environment."
"It... sounds like it's very dangerous." Ella frowned, "If you were trapped in such a space, wouldn't you never be able to get out?"
"That's the theory." Li Yang said, "But now that I have this ability, it should be able to be used in many ways."
[Warning: Unknown energy fluctuations have been detected, the system’s transmission capability is damaged, and forced transmission cannot be started]
[Suggestion: Please prepare for survival and evacuate the area immediately]
The voice of [Database] suddenly sounded, interrupting the conversation between the two.
Li Yang looked around warily: "Are you here again? That old guy..."
Before he finished speaking, the whole space suddenly shook violently.
Countless bizarre scenes flickered around them, as if the entire reality was collapsing.
"Tsk... let's go!" Li Yang said "tsk", then immediately grabbed Ella's hand and ran towards the depths of the ever-changing space.
They shuttled through the ever-changing scenery, and the ground beneath their feet sometimes turned into quicksand, sometimes into solid ice.
The sky above our heads changed from clear to torrential rain in an instant, and then turned into a starry sky in the next second.
But suddenly, Li Yang's footsteps stopped.
In front of them, a huge whirlpool appeared, like a black hole that wanted to swallow everything.
"Has it been possible to do this?" Li Yang frowned and cursed in a low voice.
Then, he slowly lowered his head and looked at the new ability he had just saved: "Time is running out, show me... what you can do."
He raised his hand suddenly and threw something out.
Then, a strange energy surged out of his body, and a small quantum superposition space was formed around them in an instant.
"Ella, close your eyes." Li Yang frowned slightly and said.
After that, the space behind him expanded instantly and swallowed the two of them!
The world spun again, and countless fragments flashed before their eyes--
The towering temple... the desolate ruins... the prosperous city... the lonely universe...
Finally, they fell heavily on a soft grass.
Li Yang slowly opened his eyes and found that they were in a quiet forest.
The sun shone through the dense leaves, and the surrounding birds and flowers were peaceful.
"We... left that place?" Ella asked in surprise.
Li Yang stood up cautiously and looked around: "Not really, I just built a small box and swallowed us in."
[Analyzing...]
[Result: Current location unknown]
[Warning: System damaged, some functions temporarily unavailable]
[Suggestion: Find a safe place as soon as possible and repair the system]
Li Yang frowned: "System damaged? That thing can already do this?"
Ella stood up and patted the dust off her body: "Then what should we do now?"
Li Yang glanced at her and replied helplessly:
"Although it is temporarily safe, the next step is to find a way out."
"This thing can help us get rid of the threat of that thing, but in the absence of external threats, it itself is a threat."
After that, he looked around a little.
The surrounding scene looks very much like the forest on Earth, but Li Yang always feels something is wrong.
"By the way...do you feel that the colors here are too saturated?" Li Yang asked in a low voice.
Ella looked around carefully and nodded: "Indeed...it feels like the colors have been artificially adjusted."
