The energy of the Imaginary Number Tree enveloped the three people like a tide.
Countless roots as thick as mountains crisscrossed in the air.
Ah Ha had no time to appreciate it. As soon as he stood firm, he flew towards the treetop, so fast that only a shadow was left.
Lin Yu subconsciously followed closely behind.
But just as he flew to the middle root area, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Huang Quan on the ground out of the corner of his eye.
She was still standing at the exit of the passage, with her sword slung across her waist. Void energy swirled gently around her body, but there was no sign of her rising into the air.
Why don't you move Lin Yu stopped suddenly, leaned over and looked at the ground, his brows unconsciously frowned.
The energy environment inside the Imaginary Number Tree is extremely friendly to living things. Even ordinary users of Destiny can use the energy to float in the air for a short time, not to mention a strong person like Huang Quan.
Huang Quan raised his head, his tone a little embarrassed, "I can't fly."
"Can't fly?" Lin Yu was completely stunned. He almost thought he had heard it wrong.
"You are obviously very strong, how could..."
"I forgot how to fly." Huang Quan's voice lowered. She raised her hand and touched her temple, as if she was recalling something, but she only frowned.
"My memory isn't very good. Many of the skills I learned and experiences I've had are now obscured by fog, but..."
She changed the subject and looked at Lin Yu with a bit more confidence in her eyes, "I've been with you recently, and I can feel that the fog is slowly dissipating, and my memory is no longer lost like before."
Lin Yu's body, hanging in the air, froze for a moment, and countless questions flashed through his mind.
For a moment, even the energy flowing in the air seemed to slow down, only tiny particles of light were still falling silently, and the atmosphere was filled with a subtle silence.
Lin Yu really couldn't understand the concept of "forgetting how to fly".
It's like a warrior forgetting how to hold a sword or a painter forgetting how to hold a brush. This is totally unreasonable.
"Pfft." A laugh suddenly came from above. Ah Ha had stopped at a root not far away at some point, his eyes full of mischief.
"Could you two please stop standing here? Master Boshi is waiting."
As she spoke, she floated down from mid-air and then raised her eyebrows and looked at Lin Yu.
"Don't you know? Void energy has the property of self-dissolving. It can not only dissolve the existence of the outside world, but also unconsciously dissolve itself."
"To put it simply, her energy will slowly consume her memories unless she has a more stable energy source to help stabilize her."
"The energy in my body?"
"Right." Ah Ha clapped his hands, and a stream of energy condensed into a wide floating platform under the feet of the three people. The floating platform was connected to the roots of the Imaginary Number Tree and could automatically move upwards with the help of the tree's energy.
Huang Quan looked at the floating platform under his feet, then looked at Lin Yu.
"No wonder I always feel more comfortable when I'm close to you. I thought it was an illusion before..."
The floating platform slowly rose among the roots, passing through layers of energy, and the outline of the dome in the distance became clearer and clearer.
It was a huge dome made of transparent crystals.
Before the floating platform could get close enough, Aha had already flown towards the core of the dome. "Big guy! Stop playing dead! I'm coming!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the floating platform that Lin Yu and Huang Quan were riding on rose to the same height.
It was a mechanical prosthetic eye with a diameter of at least fifty meters. The pupil was dark purple and was rotating slowly clockwise. The white part of the eye was made of titanium crystal alloy with a cold silver luster, and the surface was engraved with micron-level lines.
What's even more peculiar is that there are sixteen vertebrae-shaped mechanical circuits connected to the bottom of the prosthetic eye. There is a diamond-shaped data interface at the end of each circuit. The data streams flowing on the surface of the circuits are interacting with the crystal prisms of the dome in real time, like energy umbilical cords, closely connecting the mechanical prosthetic eye and the dome of intelligence.
"Is that Master Boshi?" Huang Quan swallowed subconsciously and tightened his fingers unconsciously.
She had seen Ah Ha's loli appearance, and had heard Lin Yu describe Lan and Fu Li, but she had never imagined that the star god who was in charge of intelligence and destiny would be so completely mechanized.
There is no flesh and blood, no emotion, only cold metal and flowing data, like a giant machine born for calculation.
The rotation of the mechanical prosthetic eye suddenly stopped and aimed at Aha. Then, a cold mechanical sound rang out in the void, without any ups and downs.
"Joyful Star God Aha, identity confirmed, pioneering destiny holder Lin Yu, energy fluctuation matching, identity confirmed, void holder Huang Quan, identity confirmed, meets the temporary docking authority of the Intellectual Dome, and is allowed to enter the core deduction area."
Lin Yu looked at the vertebrae-shaped mechanical circuits and suddenly noticed that the interface at the end of the circuit was engraved with symbols similar to the roots of the Imaginary Number Tree. He couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency, these vertebrae-shaped circuits... seem to be exchanging data with the roots of the Imaginary Number Tree?"
He had met Bo Shi Zun before, but had not seen these things.
"The form of existence of intelligence must adapt to the needs of data storage and deduction throughout the universe." The mechanical prosthetic eye tilted slightly, and a translucent light screen condensed in the air, displaying a complex model.
"The organic form's upper limit is three-dimensional data, but the titanium crystal alloy core of the mechanical prosthetic eye can carry a flow of intelligence beyond the fifth dimension. The vertebral circuitry serves as a cross-dimensional data bus, and the terminal interface directly connects to the root data network of the Imaginary Tree. This allows for real-time access to the fluctuations in the laws of the universe, the dynamics of civilization, and the evolution of destiny, enabling zero-delay prophetic deduction."
Huang Quan stared at the model on the light screen and suddenly felt a dull pain in his temple.
A vague fragment flashed through her mind.
In the pitch-black space, the same mechanical circuits were connected to a huge control console. She seemed to be standing in front of the console, holding a glowing crystal in her hand.
The mechanical prosthetic eye turned again, and its pupils swept over the three people.
"Priority alert: According to the latest deduction results, Funeral Guest has broken through the outer defenses of the Imaginary Tree and is moving towards the root system. Estimated time remaining: 178 minutes."
"If the hub is destroyed, the energy network of the Imaginary Tree will be disrupted, and the Last King's prophecy of doom will be fulfilled 72 hours early. We must immediately enter the deduction area and formulate an interception plan."
"Ah, there are so many things to do just after returning."
"Let's go, don't waste time! If the hub is destroyed, all our previous efforts will be in vain!"
Looking at Aha's figure in front of him, he couldn't help but speed up his pace to catch up.
"How did Master Boshi know the enemy would come? And how did the enemy know where the Tree of Imaginary Numbers was? Why did the enemy suddenly come to attack here?"
The three questions were thrown out like a string of cannonballs. Ah Ha stopped in her tracks, turned around, raised her little fist, and shook it in Lin Yu's direction.
"Are you asking a million questions? We just got out of the trouble on Blue Star, and you're already harping on the problems again. Can't you just give me a break?"
"I'm not trying to be too critical. It's just that if we can't figure these things out, it's easy to miss loopholes when formulating an interception plan. Think about it, if we don't know how the enemy found this place, what if they have a backup plan? Wouldn't we be in a passive position?"
"Alright, let me explain clearly to you. The reason why Master Boshi knows the enemy is coming is because he can monitor abnormal fluctuations in the entire universe in real time."
"The reverberations from those lunatics at Funeral Master are essentially fragments of their final fate. These fragments are particularly conspicuous within the energy field of the Imaginary Number Tree, like torches in the darkness."
"From the moment they broke through the outer defenses, Master Boshi deduced their route, accurate to the minute and the second."
She paused, her finger pointing to a set of coordinates that flashed across the wall. "As for how they found the Tree of Imaginary Numbers...it might be the prophecy of the Last King."
"The Last King went against time. His prophecies contained the code for the cosmic coordinates. Those crazy people like Zang Yi Zhi Bin studied his words every day and forcibly deciphered the exact location of the Imaginary Tree from those few words about the root of the end."
"When I was captured by the Watchers, they were already deciphering this prophecy. I just didn't expect them to act so quickly and actually find the location of the hub first."
"Then why do they have to attack the root hub?" Lin Yu asked, "The tree of imaginary numbers is so huge, can't they attack other places?"
"Because the hub is the energy heart of the Imaginary Number Tree." A mechanical voice suddenly came from above the three people's heads. Boshizun's mechanical prosthetic eye floated above the channel at some point. Sixteen vertebrae-shaped lines swayed gently, and data streams were injected into the channel wall along the lines, revealing a three-dimensional model of the root hub.
In the model, countless energy lines converge on a fist-sized core, which is surrounded by three layers of energy shields.
"The core of the hub controls the energy distribution throughout the tree. Once destroyed, the energy network of the Imaginary Tree will fall into chaos, the resilience of the World Bubble will plummet, and the Last King's prophecy of the end will be fulfilled 72 hours earlier."
"What the funeral guests want is not to destroy the Imaginary Tree, but to hasten the arrival of the end, so that they can meet their Lord Last King sooner."
