People are working on collapsing iron, and one concept-level capability is developed every month.

While she was lost in thought, Seele suddenly heard Bronya let out a slightly puzzled soft "hmm".

"what happened?"

Seele stepped forward and came to Bronya's side.

Bronya didn't answer immediately. She carefully read through the documents in her hand before asking her question.

"Seele, has the number of Fate Walkers in your 'Earthfire' faction increased?"

“The Fate Walker? Wait a minute, let me ask Nata.”

Seele took out her phone and texted Natasha to ask her a question.

As the cold wave receded and the upper and lower city areas were reconnected, Natasha, the true leader of "Earthfire," stepped forward and engaged in friendly communication with Bronya, the new "Highguard."

After the talks, "Earthfire" was also accepted by Bronya and joined as a non-official organization in many administrative affairs of the Lower City.

Like the busy Bronya, Natasha, as the leader of "Earthfire," had not rested either. Seele received Natasha's reply in just a few seconds.

"How's it going?"

Bronya asked the question.

Seele put down her phone, somewhat surprised, and said, "It's not just an increase, it's multiplied several times over. Nata said that there are now nearly 50 Fate Walkers in 'Earthfire'."

How many of you were once destined travelers?

"About a dozen or so, they all know each other and are familiar faces."

"Those newly emerged destiny travelers must have only embarked on their destiny journeys in the last few days, right? What kind of destiny journeys are they all on?"

"Wait a minute, let me ask again."

Seele, realizing the problem, picked up her phone again.

Shortly after, Seele, having received a reply, said earnestly, "The vast majority of the newly added Destiny Walkers have entered the 'Preservation' Destiny Path, a small number are on the 'Hunting' Path, and one has entered the 'Abundance' Destiny Path. Apart from these, no other Destiny Walkers have appeared."

The sudden surge in the number of Fate Walkers, coupled with their concentration on the three Fate Paths, clearly indicates a connection to the previous group of extraterrestrial visitors.

To be precise, it was the three girls who led them in the counterattack against the cold wave.

"This is Garrison Commander Jepard's report."

Bronya handed the documents to Seele, saying, "According to Jepard's statistics, the number of Fate Walkers within the Iron Guard has also surged. In just a few days, nearly a hundred Fate Walkers have emerged. They are all elites of the Iron Guard, fighting year-round on the front lines against the Rift Creatures. Furthermore..."

Bronya paused, then said, "The vast majority of them participated in the attack on Mother that day."

As Seele listened, she quickly browsed through the documents in her hands.

Jepard's report was very detailed, not only clearly indicating the number of new Destiny Walkers, but also listing their Destiny and the approximate time they entered their Destiny.

Of the Iron Guards, 89 embarked on the "Preservation" destiny, 6 on the "Abundance" destiny, and only 1 on the "Hunting" destiny.

In addition, of these 96 Fate Walkers, 52 embarked on their Fate Journey during the counterattack against the cold wave and the restoration of Yalilo VI, while the vast majority of the others embarked on their Fate Journey on the night the group of extraterrestrial visitors left.

As for the Destiny Walkers born in the last two days, there has been a significant decrease.

"They actually manage to lead people down a path of destiny..."

Seele put down the documents, half in a daze and half in disbelief, and said.

"Both Iron Guard and Earthfire have shown this condition, so it should be correct."

Bronya hesitated for a moment, then said, "Seele, could you please ask Miss Natasha to secretly count how many Fatewalkers have appeared among the people of the Lower City? As for the Upper City, I'll have Garrison Commander Jepard do the counting. Also..."

Bronya paused, then said seriously, "This matter needs to be kept secret for now. Please tell Miss Natasha to restrain those newly emerged Fate Walkers and tell them not to boast about it to others for the time being. I will also make progress on the Iron Guard side."

Seele frowned slightly. "Is it necessary to keep this a secret? Wouldn't it be more encouraging to tell people?"

Bronya shook her head slightly. "This matter involves Miss Amber and the other two. Mr. Lin... Mr. Lin mentioned to me before that Yalilo VI was the first stop of their project. Therefore, they may not even know that their songs can lead people onto a path of destiny."

“To lead someone onto a path of destiny is an extraordinary tactic, even by the standards of the entire universe.”

"This matter may be more important than we anticipated."

"We need to keep this a secret for Miss Amber and the others, and then contact them secretly to tell them about it."

"After that, based on their decision, we will decide whether to keep it secret or declassify it."

After listening to Bronya's account, Seele remained silent.

She knew Bronya was right, but the thought of Mr. Lin and Bronya's missing earring made her inexplicably irritable.

"Hu~~"

Seele took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing her agitation, and continued to ask.

How do we contact them?

Bronya pondered for a moment and said, "The diplomatic fleet of the Immortal Ship Alliance will arrive soon. I will return to the Immortal Ship with them to see Miss Amber and tell them about it in person."

"Huh?! You're going in person?"

Seele was getting a little anxious, and her voice unconsciously rose a few degrees.

Volume 1: 100. The Robin: Am I hitting a black hole?

"This is a matter of great importance, and I cannot rely on others to speak for me; I must go in person."

Bronya arrived solemnly.

"..."

Seele opened her mouth, unsure how to reply.

Yes! This matter is very important!

But... Bronya! Tell me! Are you going to see Miss Amber? Or that man with ill intentions?

Seele grew increasingly agitated, her thoughts churning wildly, but she didn't know how to begin.

After holding it in for a long time, she finally said in a muffled voice.

"I see."

After saying that, Seele transformed into specks of quantum fluorescence and disappeared.

Bronya paused slightly, wanting to reach out and stop her, but didn't know what excuse to use.

"Ah~~"

After a short while, Bronya sighed softly and continued working at her desk.

As she herself said, the matter was of great importance and could not be entrusted to others; she had to tell Mr. Lin herself.

But... if that's all there is to it, she doesn't need to go in person.

Sending Seele, sending the intelligence officer Pella, or choosing another trusted confidante would have been fine, but she ultimately chose to go herself.

It's not that I want to have anything going on with Mr. Lin; I simply want to see my mother...

She wanted to know how her mother was doing at Mr. Lin's house, and whether she had been bullied.

As Mr. Lin previously stated, with the help of the silver trails left by the "Pioneer" Star God, a round trip would take less than half a day.

With a little effort, she could still squeeze out half a day.

............

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Inside the "Enlightenment Ship," Lin Yinzhou gazed at the "Imaginary Number Space" that seemed like an insurmountable chasm, a sense of unease rising in his heart.

It's been three hours, and Ni Chang still hasn't returned.

With Ni Chang's abilities, she shouldn't be trapped by the "imaginary space domain".

Could it be that Ni Chang disobeyed his orders and directly entered the "Black Phoenix" star system?

Just as he was worrying, a small, shimmering wormhole appeared beside Lin Yinzhou.

Lin Yinzhou suddenly turned his head and saw Ni Chang emerge from the wormhole.

"Producer, I'm back."

Ni Chang closed the wormhole and smiled sweetly.

"Just come back."

Lin Yinzhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Ni Chang, but instead of asking about the situation of the "Black Phoenix" star system, he changed the subject and asked.

"Have you ventured deep into the 'Black Phoenix' star system?"

"Hmm~"

Ni Chang didn't hide anything and replied truthfully, "I observed the edge of the 'Imaginary Number Domain' for a while, and after finding nothing that could threaten me, I went in to take a look."

"You..."

Lin Yinzhou felt somewhat helpless.

The life forms he conjured were all very unique, especially the powerful ones, each one highly skilled and daring.

"Don't be so reckless next time. Safety should always come first. Also, tell me, what did you discover?"

Seeing that Ni Chang had returned safely, Lin Yinzhou did not blame her too much. After saying a few simple words, he asked about the important matter.

"One bad news, one good news, Mr. Producer, which would you like to hear first?"

"I prefer to experience hardship before happiness; let's hear the bad news first."

"Okay~"

With a wave of her hand, Ni Chang used colorful particles to create a miniature model of the "Black Phoenix" galaxy in front of Lin Yinzhou.

“Mr. Producer, look.”

Ni Chang pointed to the black dot at the center of the galaxy and said, "This is the singularity of the 'Black Phoenix' black hole. This is the core region of the black hole, with infinite density and infinitesimal volume. All matter that falls into this area perishes here."

Ni Chang's slender, jade-like fingers traced the black dot outwards, revealing two nested black circles. "This is the event horizon of the 'Black Phoenix' black hole. The 'Black Phoenix' black hole is a typical rotating black hole, and its event horizon is divided into inner and outer sides."

Ni Chang's jade-like fingers continued forward, and a curved beam of light formed a bright halo that surrounded the event's field of vision.

"This is the photon sphere, located outside the event horizon, where powerful gravity forces photons to orbit around the black hole, forming a bright, observable ring."

"Outwards lies the black hole's accretion disk, composed of remnants of stars, antimatter clouds, high-temperature gas, and many other substances. Due to the sheer size of the Black Phoenix black hole, its accretion disk is extremely spectacular, with an effective radius of 3 light-years."

"Finally, there's the jet from the outermost edge of the black hole, and that's where our bad news comes from."

With a light tap of her index finger, the once calm galaxy model suddenly became agitated. A jet of blue particles shot out from the black hole's axis of rotation, then crashed hard into the "imaginary space" before scattering and moving erratically throughout the entire galaxy model.

Numerous particles collide and annihilate continuously within the model, creating an extremely wondrous scene.

Meanwhile, Ni Chang continued, "The diameter of the 'Black Phoenix' galaxy is approximately 200,000 light-years, but the jets from the 'Black Phoenix' black hole are far longer than that. Those jets, capable of easily annihilating stars, produce extremely complex effects after colliding with the 'Imaginary Space.'"

"On the surface, they appear to be merely scattered, but in reality, they have been influenced by the 'imaginary space domain,' forming an extremely complex nested turbulent cluster. Furthermore, the infiltration of imaginary energy has rendered the entire galaxy's space unstable, with subspace and real space intertwining to create an extremely bizarre spatial corridor."

"If the 'Enlightenment Ship' were to enter, even if it managed to break through that turbulent cluster, it would inevitably get lost in layer upon layer of spatial corridors."

After listening to Ni Chang's detailed explanation, Lin Yinzhou fell into deep thought.

He roughly understood, but he had one question...

"Ni Chang, how do you know so much?"

He didn't even know these things, and he had never learned about the many concepts that Ni Chang mentioned when she described her abilities.

He was very curious as to why Ni Chang, being a wormhole, was born with such knowledge.

Ni Chang smiled sweetly and said, "Wervehole travel is not 100% safe. There are always some unlucky ones who encounter some problems that cause them and their spaceships to disappear in the wormhole. Some of these unlucky ones get lost in unknown space, while others turn into particles and remain in the wormhole forever."

"After the producer granted me a new life, those particles also became a part of me, or rather, a part of my intellect?"

"I see." Lin Yinzhou truly understood this time.

Then, he changed the subject and brought it back on track.

"So, what's the good news?"

Ni Chang smiled slightly, raised her hand to hold the many particles that were constantly darting around in the model, and then zoomed in on the model, pointing it to the inner edge of the accretion disk.

"This is the inner stable orbit of the black hole's accretion disk, where matter can move stably without falling into the event horizon. I have verified this and left an anchor point here. We can go there anytime you wish, Mr. Producer."
