Fangzheng really felt that the world was too wonderful.
He originally came here on a whim to take a look at the situation outside this planet, but little did he expect that he would accidentally discover a big secret related to the life and death of this world …. It was like an adventurer running into the grass to pee while walking on a small path and accidentally triggering a main mission to save the world.
There was no logic or science to speak of at all.
More importantly ….
"Say, if I hand over this recording to the Holy Church, will they treat me as a heretic and beat me to death? Or will they kill me to silence me? "
Looking at the audio file in his hand, Fangzheng was completely speechless. Although he had guessed that the Goddess of Order was not a decent person when he was in the Goddess's Bath, he did not expect her to be so annoying ….
Although Fangzheng had a lot of things he wanted to criticize, he had to admit that he was able to glean some information from the Goddess of Order's message.
First of all, judging from the message, the Goddess of Order was no longer in this world. As for whether she was dead or gone, Fangzheng did not know, but it was obvious that the Goddess of Order …. Or rather, the annoying Goddess of Order did not "silently protect this world" as the Holy Cathedral said.
At the same time, she also mentioned the term "our enemy", which was probably referring to Chaos. The Goddess of Order herself also said that she left behind the "Everyone Rise Together (Ascend to Heaven)" system in order to carry out a large-scale AOE attack on the entire planet when things became irreversible …. Well, from a certain point of view, the speculation that the Goddess of Order came from a higher civilization in the universe was basically confirmed.
Besides ….
"Nimfu, is there any result from your analysis of these things?"
"Yes, Master."
Nimf nodded.
"According to the results of the analysis, apart from being used to carry out fixed ground strikes, these 'satellites' are mainly responsible for shielding."
"Shielding?"
"Or rather, isolation."
Nimf stretched out her hand and waved it forward. Soon, a series of information and data that Fangzheng could not understand appeared on the screen.
"It's made of a very mysterious metal that can absorb waves and rays, both internally and externally. In other words, if one didn't rely on the naked eye and only used instruments or other means to probe, it would only show that there was nothing here but a dark starry sky. If someone tries to send a signal to the outside world from the ground, it will also be absorbed, causing them to be unable to receive any response. "
"Wait, does that mean there's no sun and moon outside?"
Fangzheng looked out through the porthole, and sure enough, he didn't see the sun and moon that should have been there.
"Of course, according to my analysis, these satellites can also simulate artificial suns and moons, or even …"
"Constellations?"
Fangzheng finally understood what was going on with the stars he saw on the ground. They were not real stars, but these strange things …. But the question was, why did the Goddess of Order create such a big cage to keep the planet in?
But before that …
"Where does the energy of the artificial sun come from?"
No matter how Fangzheng looked at it, he didn't think these things had the energy foundation to simulate a sun.
"They're closely connected to the planet through a method similar to the Goddess' realm. They maintain their own operation by extracting the power of Order on the planet as energy."
"So what the Holy Cathedral said about the world being finished without the power of Order is actually true?"
Fangzheng rolled his eyes. It seemed that the Holy Cathedral wasn't exaggerating at all. Even the sun and moon of this planet relied on the power of Order to operate. If the power of Order was finished …. Well, Fangzheng finally understood why the Land of Chaos was always dark and cold.
Because the sun of this place wasn't a ball!
The situation was getting more and more complicated.
"What should we do next? Master? Should we ask Neptune to release a few probes to take a look? "
"Hmm …."
Facing Nimf's question, Fangzheng thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"No, let's figure out what's going on first. That Goddess might sound like she's asking for a beating, but she did say that we have to pass a test to leave this planet. There must be a reason why a seemingly frivolous Goddess would say something so serious. Besides, don't you think this isolation is too extreme? "
That's right, a metallic substance that could isolate and absorb all radiation waves was used to seal off the entire planet. Fangzheng didn't think it was to trap the prey inside. On the contrary, it seemed to be to help them avoid threats from the outside world.
It was like how humans would use cages to trap animals in zoos, but conversely, they would use cages to trap themselves in the sea in order to guard against a great white shark that might suddenly appear out of nowhere.
For now, Fangzheng believed that the purpose of this "cage" was closer to the latter.
Therefore, before confirming that there were no great white sharks or monsters like Krakens in the "deep sea" outside, it was better to act cautiously. Even if the strength of Fangzheng's fleet was indeed far beyond the current civilization level of this world, who knew if the monsters outside were stronger than them? Only by knowing oneself and knowing the enemy could one emerge victorious in every battle. As a mage, Fangzheng had never relied on recklessness to get by.
"All in all, let's go back first."
Just like that, the anticlimactic trip ended in a hurry. After Fangzheng returned to the Tendo Temple, he immediately gathered his men together and began to discuss these sudden troubles.
Of course, the first thing he had to figure out was ….
"Nimf, do you know the exact location of the coordinates?"
"Of course, Master. I've confirmed it."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, Nimf nodded and reached out to tap on the map on the screen.
"It's in the hinterland of the Western Continent …. The specific location is probably in the center …."
"That's the Nation of Fire?"
Seeing this map, Fangzheng smiled. This was a good opportunity for him. As a Paladin, since he had received the oracle, he naturally had to go and see what kind of test was waiting for him there, right?
But considering that the situation there was unclear and very dangerous, he needed an army …. This was all for the sake of justice and the great Goddess. Whoever dares to stop me, I'll chop off their heads!
Fangzheng felt that he was becoming more and more familiar with the routine of the Paladin profession.
"Looks like I should find a time to tell Milune that it's time for the Zerg to come to the Overworld to expand their territory."
Fangzheng made a decision and immediately focused his attention on their original problem.
"Will the disintegration of the Stone Village …. Will it cause any damage to this planet?"
In response to Fangzheng's question, Nimf shook her head again.
"The impact is negligible …. But it's not completely negligible. At least the hole left by the breaking off of the ground will be filled by seawater. It won't affect the planet itself."
"Good."
Hearing his "chief scientist" give a conclusion, Fangzheng no longer hesitated. He quickly gave an order.
"It's decided then. Let the Stone Village go to the low-Earth orbit for the disintegration operation. At the same time, it will be responsible for monitoring the outer universe. Musashi, you're responsible for forming an emergency fleet. If the Stone Village sends an alarm, you'll need to be dispatched as soon as possible. "
Originally, Fangzheng planned to send a fleet to patrol the planet's orbit, but unfortunately, after leaving the range of the Tendo Temple, Fangzheng would need to consume Dimension Points to maintain any battleship. At present, Fangzheng's Tendo Temple was temporarily out of food, so the more Dimension Points he used, the less Dimension Points he had. Therefore, before determining how long the crystal vein could last him, Fangzheng did not intend to do so for the time being.
