"Hmph, if that's the case, then forget it."
After hearing Tang Hao's promise, BB retracted her gaze from Xiao Meiyan and the others. She looked like she believed him, but only she herself would know if she really believed him.
Tang Hao did not want to dwell on this issue any longer and quickly said, "You opened the port to the outside world to solve the crisis of the spirit particle world. What kind of crisis exists here?"
"Does Senior know where this spirit particle world is?" BB asked instead of answering.
"Didn't I just say that this oil field is deep in the sea?"
"You're only half right." BB smiled. "This was originally an offshore oil field base, but due to some special reason, the base's operating system malfunctioned. To put it simply … the spirit particle system that originally appeared in 2030 was accidentally transported to this era, turning the entire base into a spirit particle world. This caused the base's energy to be depleted, and the world we're in has entered a submerged state."
At this point, she looked around and realized that everyone except Tang Hao had a confused look on their faces. She sighed. "Humans are as stupid as ever. If you still don't understand, then I'll put it in simpler terms … You don't have to worry about why the base became a spirit particle world for now. Anyway, if we compare the offshore oil field base to an egg, then the spirit particle world exists within its eggshell. Originally, the egg could float on the surface of the sea through external energy supply, but now that the egg has become a spirit particle world, the energy connection to the external world has been cut off. This directly caused the egg to sink into the sea. It's currently a thousand meters under the sea, but this is an ocean with a depth of more than ten thousand meters. If the egg completely sinks to the bottom of the sea, what do you think will happen?"
BB's strange analogy was simple and direct. The originally confused Xiao Meiyan and the others immediately understood, and their expressions changed.
Regardless of the time, the sea was always one of the most dangerous places. Even without those legendary sea monsters, the pressure of the deep sea was enough to crush everything. If one really sank to the bottom of the sea, even steel would be reduced to a meat patty. Almost no living creature would be able to survive!
"Are … are we not at the bottom of the sea yet?" Xiao Yuan asked weakly as she looked at the piles of rocks in the distance.
"That's just a visual obstruction. What you see through the thin walls of the spirit particle world may not be real. According to BB Chan's calculations, this spirit particle world will completely sink to the bottom of the sea in at most seven days. At that time, as the outer eggshell is crushed, the entire spirit particle world will also collapse. Of course …" The girl suddenly grinned and revealed a naughty smile. "All the data stored in the spirit particle world will disappear."
After Tang Hao and the rest came in, their information was forcefully converted to the Veda. This was not BB's doing, but the power of the spiritual particle world itself. In other words, they were now part of the data of this spiritual particle world, and the collapse of the spiritual particle world would also cause their deaths.
BB wanted to pressure them with these words, but after hearing it, Xiao Meiyan and the rest were a little relieved. This was because they still had the chatroom. As long as they went to other worlds through the chatroom before the spirit particle world collapsed, this deadly crisis would not affect them at all.
Of course, they would not say it out loud.
"Hmm, this is indeed troublesome." Tang Hao nodded and said seriously, "Then how should we solve this?"
"Then I'll have to ask Seniors to work hard. If Seniors can help BB Chan regain control, then I'll have a way to make the Spirit Particle World float up again. However, this also means that you'll be enemies with the biggest shady organization in the Spirit Particle World, Qi Huang. She's a very difficult woman to deal with. If you're not careful, Senior might die."
Tang Hao ignored the second half of the sentence and asked, "How much of your management rights did you lose?"
"About half," BB said pitifully. "That woman is very cunning. She used despicable and shameless methods to steal part of the management rights from BB Chan. Now, even I can't do anything to her, and because of the power struggle between us, it caused the spiritual particle world to become more crowded, limiting the amount of traffic that can enter from the port. For example, the four girls just now, their traffic is too large, so they can't enter the spiritual particle world."
Xiao Yuan was stunned. "Isn't it because of their feelings for Brother Hao …?"
Tang Hao immediately rolled his eyes. Only a naive and sweet girl like Xiao Yuan would believe that kind of stupid words.
Tang Hao would not deny his charm towards otherworldly people because that was the truth, but BB was not an ordinary otherworldly person. She was a true demon-type female protagonist. Among all the female protagonists in the Xing Yue series, she was definitely the most difficult to conquer. Even if she really liked someone, she would have to pay a great price first. He and BB had only met for the first time, and they had no prior contact. The probability of BB liking him was not just zero, it was a negative number.
Therefore, Tang Hao had never believed that Yu Ji and the others would kick them out of the spirit particle world out of jealousy just because they had a good impression of him!
Although the current explanation might not be the truth, the possibility was not low.
There was no need to mention Love Song and Yu Ji. One was the Princess of Origin, and the other was the child of Gaia. They had a huge amount of information, and according to BB's logic, it was normal that they could not enter.
As for Alice and Asuna, they probably had about the same amount of information as Xiao Yuan and the others. However, Xiao Yuan and the others could enter, but Alice and Asuna could not. Perhaps it was because … they did not belong to the Xing Yue world, nor did they belong to the Xing Yue world. They were true outsiders.
Of course, Tang Hao was also an outsider, but he felt that he was a protagonist, and a protagonist had some privileges. What, you still don't agree?
"But don't worry. Although the current situation is not in our favor, BB is not to be trifled with. Qi Huang of the Slaughterhouse doesn't dare to fight me head-on for now and signed a temporary non-aggression agreement with me. At least for the first one or two days, she won't take the initiative to attack you. Senior, you should take advantage of this time … Hmm?"
As BB spoke, he suddenly saw Tang Hao take out a phone from his pocket.
"Sorry, stop for a moment." Tang Hao gestured to BB and opened the phone. It was a message from Asuna.
Was she contacting someone from the outside world?
BB's eyes flickered. Logically speaking, after Tang Hao and the others entered this spiritual world, everything was digitized, and she closed the port at the same time. People from the outside could not enter, and people from the inside could not leave. The two worlds were completely cut off from each other, so there should be no way to contact them … In an instant, a strong sense of curiosity surged in her heart.
"President, where are you?"
Tang Hao did not know what BB was thinking, but looking at Asuna's message, she seemed to be in a hurry.
"We've entered the spiritual world. What about you? Are you hurt? "
"We're not hurt, but for some reason, Miss Yu Ji, Miss Shatiao, and Miss Alice were all ejected from the vortex. We tried a few times, but we still couldn't get in, so we're a little worried."
"It's fine, we're fine now. I already know what happened to you. It's probably because this spiritual world can't load your information, so you were ejected."
"I see. What should we do?"
"Well … there's no solution for now. You're all at Ba Asami's apartment, right?"
"Yes."
"How about this. Since you can't interfere with the spiritual world, staying there is just a waste of time. Why don't you return to your own world first."
"… Alright, I'll discuss it with them."
"Mm, don't force yourself. See you later."
After ending the call with Asuna, Tang Hao put away his phone. When he looked up, he met BB's bright eyes, which said "I'm very curious" was written all over his face.
"Senior, are you contacting someone from the outside world? That's amazing, BB is very surprised! Can you let BB take a look at your phone? "
"No, that's my secret," Tang Hao said with a smile.
"Tsk, so stingy. It's fine if you don't want to give it to me." BB pursed her lips, but very quickly, she threw this curiosity to the back of her mind and smiled. "Let's go back to our previous topic. Although Qi Huang from the College of Killings won't attack you for the time being due to the non-aggression agreement, it doesn't mean that you're safe, Senior. After all, this spiritual world is set against the backdrop of the Battle of the Moon Holy Grail, where 128 masters and 128 servants fought."
"Although the masters are all dead, due to the conspiracy of the College of Killings, the recorded servants can still be summoned, and they are all masterless servants. These servants have experienced cruel battles and are even more violent than the servants in the Holy Grail War. Almost every one of them has the attribute of Berserk. These servants are one of the most powerful enemies that you may encounter in the course of your exploration, senior."
"One of?" Ba Asami frowned.
"That's right. Compared to these servants, there are more dangerous enemies in the spiritual world." The corner of BB's mouth twitched, but he did not beat around the bush. "Those are the unnecessary personalities extracted from BB's heart. They exist as high-level AI in the spiritual world. Although there are only three of them, each of them has fused with more than one divinity, so they're more powerful than ordinary servants. They also have warlike, cruel, and sadistic personalities …
"Although it's not good for a mother like me to say it, it's undeniable that they're all monsters. I call them Alterego. If Senior accidentally encounters them, don't be merciful just because they're BB's daughters. Kill them at all costs."
