The gigantic Guardian spaceship was essentially an "ecological ship" that carried countless life samples.
Behind the thick isolation wall was a vast expanse of open space. Ninety percent of these giant space chambers were occupied by all kinds of biological tissues. An incredible ecosystem had been operating here for ten thousand years, maintaining a set of detailed specimen library.
In great shock, Hao Ren stepped through the isolation door and stepped into the endless specimen library.
"Biological tissues …" Anthony Alfonso followed. The old magician bent down to examine the red fiber bundles and found that these things were not inorganic. They had a certain temperature to the touch and contained a surging vitality. The shape of these fiber bundles was more like a mixture of muscles, nerves, and body fluid conduits. "It's symbiotic with the spacecraft."
"This spacecraft is very special. It's half-biological and half-mechanical," Galazur said with a slight amazement in her voice. "No wonder the MDT couldn't crack the control system of the other half of the spacecraft. The two systems are independent of each other, and the control of the other half is in these biological tissues."
Hao Ren looked up and saw that the red fiber bundles had almost turned the cabin into a strange and scary twisted jungle. Between the fiber bundles, he could see a bit of the spacecraft's steel structure, which was actually integrated with the biological tissues. But this place was not just this monotonous red. There seemed to be something else in the distance.
He quickly walked forward and found another group of 'conduits' on the other side of the intertwined red fiber bundles. This was a kind of fibrous tissue that emitted a pale blue shimmer. The new fibrous tissue appeared more slender and had a slight metallic luster, but its general shape was similar to the red fiber bundles. Between these pale blue conduits, there were also ellipsoidal crystal compartments. These neatly arranged crystal compartments were also soaked with living or dead organisms, but the life forms of these organisms were obviously different from those in other places.
They were more metallic.
"This is the storage area of silicon-based organisms …" The MDT floated over from behind. After a simple inspection, it concluded. "The Seed of Origin can also breed silicon-based organisms as long as it lands on the right planet. Basically, as long as it is a creature with a physical body, the Seed of Origin can breed it. The life system created by the goddess of creation is quite complete. I speculate that there should be other specimen storage areas in other compartments, used to preserve samples of various life forms. "
Hao Ren silently browsed through the specimen bins. Most of the specimen bins only contained biological residue. It took a long time to find a container that was not empty. He stopped in front of a silicon-based biological chamber. A slender strange creature was immersed in this crystal chamber. The creature had a smooth appearance and light silver skin. Its slender back was covered with a layer of translucent crystal carapace. Hao Ren curiously moved closer to observe, but before he could see the other details of the creature, a large amount of turbid substance suddenly gushed out of the container.
In the blink of an eye, the creature in the container was completely corroded by the turbid substance, leaving behind only black biological residue.
"The last Kryptonian in the world is dead," Whitey's voice came from behind. "He should have buried himself in a shelter deep underground, but he couldn't withstand the passage of time."
"What the hell is this place?" Hao Ren suddenly turned his head and looked at the white light floating behind him.
"The ceremonial hall of the Ultimate Absolution. All the races created by the Mother of All have a place here, and through a great ceremony, they continue to be comforted by the Mother of All after they wandered into this world. Those who have sinned are also pardoned here forever," Whitey replied softly as it continued to float deeper into the cabin. "Don't worry about the specimens in these containers, because they are not biological bodies, but symbolic idols without consciousness, piled up by the source of life. They are only here to monitor the condition of those races."
Under Whitey's lead, everyone continued to go deeper into the maze-like specimen vault. As the path ahead became narrower, Lily had to change back to her usual form (she ruined another piece of clothing). Suddenly, Nangong Wuyue saw something and shouted, "Look at this!"
Hao Ren looked in the direction of her finger, and the look in his eyes changed.
In a carbon-based biological chamber, there was a human-like figure soaking. This body had pale golden skin and dazzling blond hair. Its facial features were almost perfect, and its well-proportioned body looked like a god walking out of an ancient Greek sculpture. This distinctive form was unforgettable: the treacherous son of a deity.
Whitey casually explained, "He should not look like this, but the specimens in the ceremonial hall will change according to the race they reflect because they have completely changed their genetic sequence. So soon after the ceremonial hall was built, the specimen here changed."
But this was not the explanation that Hao Ren wanted to hear. What shocked him most was why this deity was placed in this sacred place. There was no doubt that this was a sacred place guarded by guardians. Guardians like Ymir and Yggdrasil would never allow this specimen to be placed here.
"Even the treacherous son of a deity is in the sequence of the Ultimate Absolution?"
"It saddens me, but this is the will of the Mother of All," Whitey replied softly.
Hao Ren could not help but recall the scene of the deity slaying in the illusion, and a detail flashed in his mind.
The "forgive" that the goddess of creation uttered before she fell.
Other than that, there was the divine words that broke into Zhao Xi's soul: I forgive all the sins of my children, and I will forgive them forever.
Now, it seemed that these were not as simple as a casual last words. They were part of some powerful ritual!
"What is the Ultimate Absolution?" Hao Ren asked straightforwardly.
At this time, Whitey had brought them to the core area of the cabin. All kinds of fiber bundles were arranged symmetrically around it, and in the middle of the circular space, there was a silver-white platform. The platform was inlaid with a fist-sized transparent crystal, and inside the crystal, one could see a drop of blood-like red liquid.
The moment Vivian saw the red liquid, she was in a trance. She felt a power of the same origin and even the same nature calling out to her in the crystal. She instantly understood what it was: the blood of the goddess of creation.
Not just any lifeblood, but the divine blood directly from the goddess of creation.
"How do you completely destroy a god and all her influence?" Whitey suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated topic.
"Completely destroy a god?" Hao Ren did not know how to react.
"Not just a god, but also her influence. The latter is more important." Whitey's tone became very serious. "Destroying a god is indeed very difficult. A god is powerful, omnipotent, and has the authority to directly change the laws. Unless you can also control the laws of the universe, you can't even leave a mark on a god. But compared to destroying the influence of a god, destroying a god is actually much easier. Deicide is just the first step of a sin. The fundamental purpose of the rebellion 10,000 years ago was far more serious than deicide: the purpose of the rebellion was to eliminate all traces of a god. "
Galazur obviously knew more about the god than Hao Ren. The dragon queen had vaguely guessed what Galazur meant. Seeing that Hao Ren and the others were still in a daze, she took the initiative to explain, "The 'influence' of a god is not just the 'influence' that you understand, but something more profound. The existence of a god itself means the operation of the laws of the universe. Their every word and deed means the evolution of the world. Their influence is law-based, or in other words, their influence means what kind of state the whole world will be in. Destroying the influence of a god is essentially equivalent to erasing all kinds of changes in the world caused by the god, and at the same time, cutting off the future that the world is about to welcome because of the god. Take our goddess as an example. If her influence in the universe disappears, then the universe will not just lose a guardian. In fact, all the magic based on arcane power in the universe will weaken or even disappear completely. The various cosmic phenomena caused by Raven 12345 will also end. What's more, when the universe faces some terrible disasters from the outside world, it will become defenseless. "
Lily's mouth was agape. "… It sounds terrible."
Hao Ren looked at Whitey. "So … the deicide 10,000 years ago was actually just a prelude? The big news of the mastermind is still coming? "
"Exactly."
