The tunnel filled with endless streams of light seemed to be able to travel through time. His senses became hazy and blurry, as if his mind had sunk into an old dream in the depths of his memory.
After an unknown period of time, his vision suddenly opened up, and his consciousness returned.
Han Xiao's vision cleared, and he looked around. He found that he had arrived at a boundless white world with countless balls of light floating. He had a deep impression of such a scene.
"Phew, I'm in."
Han Xiao relaxed his mind, turned his head to look at the collapsing tunnel, and clenched his hand.
A wave of energy emerged from his body and turned into a mark on his palm. The Sanctum passage immediately stabilized.
He retracted his palm and took a look. This mark was formed by eight patterns. It was the Level 8 authority of the First Sanctum.
"I have to hurry …"
Han Xiao calmed himself down and immediately began to move. This was his second time entering the Sanctum, so he was already familiar with the way.
The longer he stayed in the Sanctum, the more time passed in the outside world. The last time he entered the Third Sanctum, he had wasted a lot of time testing the functions of the Sanctum. This time, there was no need for that.
Han Xiao took out many mediums and called for the Sanctum Revival. There was an immediate reaction.
Rays of light gathered and condensed into a Sanctum Revival mark in midair in front of him, floating quietly.
He reached out and touched it, and the Sanctum Revival mark merged into his palm, turning into a tattoo-like mark.
After checking the target of revival in the mark, Han Xiao nodded. Without any delay, he immediately began to touch the various Information Form light balls to collect different information.
The information stored in the First Sanctum was closely related to mechanical technology. It stored the high-level blueprints developed by countless Iteration Civilizations, and many of them were Universal Treasures used by Mechanics. The value of this information to Han Xiao was far greater than the value of the Third Sanctum.
Han Xiao's authority level in the First Sanctum was higher than that of the Third Sanctum. His memory capacity was higher, and he could take away more technical information at once. Naturally, there was no reason for him to let go of such an opportunity to plunder technology here.
The technology of the final civilizations of the various iterations entered Han Xiao's mind one after another, slowly reaching the memory capacity limit of the authority limit.
"It's finally full. The memory capacity of Level 8 authority is much higher."
Han Xiao stopped his plundering at the right time, feeling rather excited.
This round of looting was a huge boost to his technological foundation. He had obtained many trump cards from Iteration Final Civilizations, which would be enough for him to study for a long time. The number of blueprints in his inventory had greatly increased.
The trump cards of these final civilizations were not simple, and their functions were complicated. The strategic value of some of these technologies was not inferior to the Radiant Federation's Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Device. Bringing these precious technologies out this time was equivalent to obtaining a new trump card to fight against the World Tree Civilization, increasing the galactic society's war capital.
After being happy for a while, Han Xiao suppressed his emotions. After doing these two things, his goal of opening the Sanctum would be completed.
After looking around, Han Xiao suddenly thought of something and used the Sanctum authority to summon the message board of the Iteration Civilization.
The last time he entered the Third Sanctum, due to his authority, a lot of the information on the message board was empty. This time, he had higher authority in the First Sanctum, so he should be able to see more information. Han Xiao planned to take a look before he left.
The Sanctum authority mark emitted rays of light and quickly weaved into a message board that floated in front of Han Xiao.
Han Xiao browsed through it carefully and compared it to the content of the Third Sanctum in his memory. As expected, he realized that many of the empty content from the last time had become visible.
He looked down line by line and paused on the fifth last paragraph of the Celestial Star Alliance's record. Then, he looked at the last four paragraphs with the most empty content. Compared to what he had seen in the Third Sanctum, most of the last four paragraphs were still covered, but some new content was also revealed.
Among them, the fourth last paragraph had the most content. In the large gap, a few pieces of information appeared.
[… According to the research results of the Joint Observation Institute, the Great Reboot will take place in the future. We have learned from the lessons of the previous Iteration and formulated the 'Information Form Stripping Plan'. We hope that the long relay can end in our hands … Our civilization is called 'Civilization'. If the civilization of the subsequent Iterations is to us … then it proves that our plan is wrong. Please change to a new route …]
"Is this the next Iteration of the Celestial Star Alliance …"
Han Xiao pondered. It looked like it was another message from a civilization that had not survived the Great Reboot.
Although his authority was not enough to show the name of this civilization, making it impossible to search for the other party's Information Form light sphere, he learned that the other party's plan to survive the Great Reboot was called the Information Form Stripping Plan.
"Information Form Stripping … sounds interesting."
Han Xiao stroked his chin and muttered.
Other than this paragraph, the other information that appeared in the last four paragraphs were all fragmentary words and did not have much value. The level eight authority was not enough to fully view this part of the content.
After browsing through it again and memorizing the many messages, Han Xiao closed the message board and flew toward the Sanctum passage.
…
The second day Han Xiao entered the Sanctum.
In the main base of the interceptor circle, many Beyond Grade As were on standby. When there were no combat missions, they would do their own things.
In the exclusive activity room, some of the Beyond Grade As were resting or having fun, chatting casually.
Kasuyi was playing cards with Secret Master, and a group of people were watching from the side.
"We've lost contact with Black Star. I wonder how many troublesome fellows he's going to bring back this time …"
Sun Hunter, who was the size of a finger, stood on the card table with his arms crossed and spoke in a low voice.
Kasuyi threw out a 'Kasuyi' card and smiled helplessly.
"It's indeed troublesome. After all, some of the historical Beyond Grade As have complicated relationships with us."
The first two batches of revived Beyond Grade As did not have much contact with the current Beyond Grade As, but this time, the target of revival was different. Many of them were their 'acquaintances'.
"Ahem, to be honest, I'm not ready to meet my ancestor yet." Milizaus had a headache.
He was the patriarch of the Astral Spiritual Dragon Race, and the Astral Spiritual Dragon Race was a branch bloodline left behind by a Beyond Grade A Magic Blue Dragon, which could be considered his ancestor.
Milizaus was not the only one who had such an encounter. The Beyond Grade As that Black Star was preparing to revive this time had a similar relationship with many of the people present.
It would have been fine if that was all, but many of them had enmity with each other. Thinking that their enemies were about to revive, many of them felt uneasy.
Originally, everything would be over if they died, and their hatred would be put down. However, now that their enemies had all come back to life, should they still pursue their past grudges?
This was especially so for the victims of the Tragedy of the Pinnacles represented by Dylan. Everyone felt that they would definitely not let this matter rest.
"When these people are revived by Black Star in the Sanctum, it'll be good if they don't fight." Kant shook his head.
Hella, who was resting in the corner with her eyes closed, did not open them.
"What's there to be afraid of? If Black Star can revive them, he can also stuff them back into their graves. If they cause trouble, I'll be happy to send them to the Underworld."
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at her, speechless.
That's the logic, but saying it in front of us feels like you're warning us …
Everyone curled their lips and looked away.
Humph, although they're sisters, Aurora is still cuter!
"Hella is right. At a time like this, we can't waste a single soldier." Kasuyi chuckled.
After Han Xiao entered the Sanctum, Kasuyi and Hella became the backbone of the association. The former was the vice president, and Hella did not have enough reputation. However, Han Xiao had given her the intelligence channel of Destiny's Child to contact, so Hella temporarily enjoyed a transcendent status.
"Speaking of which, although Black Star is shameless and cunning, he's still very hardworking when it comes to fighting for the interests of the Beyond Grade As and maintaining the safety of the galactic society. He's almost like a different person," Sun Hunter said.
"That's because you don't understand him. Cunning is just a means. I've always felt that Black Star is an idealist who plans for the peace of the universe and has noble pursuits that transcend reality." Beiger's tone was solemn. He was an old bootlicker.
"Forget it. Black Star is purely an opportunist, but his common interests are the same as ours. Don't flatter him." Heber snorted.
The group of people started a heated discussion about what kind of person Black Star was. Anyway, Han Xiao was not here, and it was not convenient for them to complain in front of him. Now, they could say whatever they wanted.
On the other side, Manison stayed alone in the observation tower of the main base, silently looking at the starry sky.
He was playing with a cube-like polyhedron in his hand. It looked like some kind of mechanism, and the complicated mechanical structure kept sliding, making clicking sounds.
This was a child's initiation toy used by the Mechanical Race to cultivate Mechanical Sense from a young age.
"The ancestor might be coming back …"
Manison muttered to himself with complicated feelings.
He was the second Beyond Grade A born in the Mechanical Race, and he also had a distant ancestor. Although he had become an independent species after advancing to the Beyond Grade A realm, this relationship still counted.
Especially since Manison was now the only leader of the Mechanical Race and treated the Mechanical Race as his important capital. If the ancestor of the Mechanical Race returned and wanted to become the leader of the Mechanical Race again, who would the Mechanical Race listen to? A mountain could not accommodate two tigers. Would his position be affected because of this?
Unfortunately, the target of the Sanctum Revival was decided by Black Star. As long as he found the medium, he could freely choose the target.
Manison could not control Han Xiao's thoughts. He even suspected that Black Star was doing it on purpose.
Not to mention Manison's thoughts, Clotti and Oulou were also in a dilemma.
The two of them were waiting at the dock of the base, watching the huge starships enter the port along the tracks.
Oulou lit a cigarette, exhaled a mouthful of light blue smoke, and slowly said, "The former direct descendants will be revived soon. Are you nervous?"
"Why should I be nervous?" Clottey was expressionless.
"Heh, don't tell me you're not traumatized by them at all." Oulou sneered.
Clottey did not say anything.
He was now a direct descendant of the dynasty with the highest status, but he was still a junior in front of the previous generation.
Clottey was not the National Pillar as soon as he advanced to the Beyond Grade A realm. Before he grew up, there was still the previous National Pillar supporting the dynasty's prestige.
At the same time, due to his powerful Esper Ability, Clotti was the focus of the dynasty's nurturing. The previous generation's National Pillar was his special training instructor, and he could be considered half a teacher. He had left an indelible impression on Clotti.
If Gaud had not died, he would have also received his special training. The old would teach the new, and this would be passed down from generation to generation.
"Although Black Star's starting point is for the sake of the war …" Oulou took another puff of his cigarette, shook his head, and said, "This kind of action will probably put many people in an unimaginable situation."
Clottey shook his head.
Facing the many seniors who were about to revive, the entire Beyond Grade A group could not help but have their own thoughts.
