Themis used herself as bait to trap Lan Mu in the physics lab.
This kind of unreasonable anomaly that directly tampered with the laws of physics could definitely kill him, and the two of them would die together under an indescribable physical phenomenon.
Without being able to break through the inner wall, and without being able to escape, Lan Mu was completely helpless. Even if his angelic body could be reborn with the power of faith, the power of faith would eventually dry up, and he would continue to die here until he completely disappeared.
"Elise!" He used Soul Burn on Elise, but it was too late. Elise fell from the sky in pain, not understanding what was going on.
Before he could even signal Elise through the observation window, the robots outside had already made their move.
"F * ck!" Lan Mu cursed in his mind as he madly swung his sword at Themis's brain.
As long as he killed Themis now, he might be able to stop the other party.
But from an external perspective, he would notice that his own speed had become extremely slow. The lightsaber seemed to be moving in slow motion in the air, and his thoughts had also become abnormally sluggish.
"The … speed … of … light … has … decreased …"
The lightsaber turned into a mass of chaos and collapsed, and there was no longer any color to be seen.
Lan Mu's body was shrinking at a visible rate, the speed of electrons combining into atoms had slowed down, and the speed of atoms combining into molecules had also slowed down. The decrease in Bohr's radius had caused his body to shrink continuously. If it was a human body, it would quickly collapse into a mud-like biomass. The degree of enlargement of each atom's radius was different, so every cell, even a complete organelle and cell membrane would no longer exist.
Under such circumstances, the internal structure and biochemical reactions of the brain would immediately become chaotic. When the brain lost its function, consciousness would immediately disappear, and all life would end together.
But Lan Mu was different. He was now an energy lifeform, so before the speed of light decreased to a certain point, he could still maintain his consciousness, but it would become increasingly sluggish.
Similarly, Themis's brain had basically lost its ability to think due to the decrease in the speed of light, but even so, the decrease in the speed of light did not stop.
Lan Mu realized that even if he killed Themis, it would be useless, as the other party was already prepared to die together with him.
Even though the entire city was on standby due to the loss of Themis' control, all the robots lost their artificial intelligence control and became motionless. In the blink of an eye, this place became a cold and desolate dead city.
But before that, there was a special robot that had been set up with a control program. Its execution program would strictly follow the so-called Plan A, constantly adjusting the light speed parameter to reduce until …
Return to zero!
The speed of light was an extremely important physical constant. When it returned to zero, it would end everything. Everything would cease to exist, and the world would become deathly still. It would truly be an absolute stillness with zero movement!
With no solution, the existence trapped in the laboratory could only silently accept these physical changes until the experiment was over.
…
A few minutes ago, Joshua, Otto, and Sarah were standing on the side of the steel cube.
Otto held the neon gun in both hands and kept attacking a certain part of the steel cube. Unlike the other surfaces, there was a pattern in the shape of a pupil.
This place was supposed to be the bottom of the steel city.
However, because the city's chassis had been lifted up to form a square building, what should have been the bottom was now the side, exposed to everyone.
The preachers all knew that this was the core energy source of Steel Dogma City, the source of all energy within the city.
"Stop, there's no way to stop what Themis has decided. This alloy is indestructible, normal attacks can't even leave a mark on it" Sarah spoke with a sorrowful expression. She knew that Themis was about to perish together with the angel.
This female preacher had retreated from the frontlines due to Du An's sacrifice. Originally, she was going to follow Joshua to the Ocean Planet after Plan B failed, so she was currently by Joshua's side.
As for Joshua, since he couldn't stop Themis' Plan A, he was forcefully chased out of Steel Dogma City.
They could only silently wait for the result. However, Otto had also madly rushed to the location of the pupil mark, wanting to use the method of destroying the energy source to stop what was happening inside.
It was as if Themis's death was out of his expectations. History had changed.
Otto roared, "Lord Joshua! You must stop Themis! He is the only person who knows about this in both dimensions! He absolutely cannot die, or the secret of that anomaly will be buried forever! Fuck, he's too irresponsible! He's the same in both dimensions! "
Saying so, he madly attacked the pupil mark, but the Neon Ray Gun's power couldn't even break through the steel shell.
"Otto! Lord Themis's choice is for all of us, what right do you have to insult him!? " Sarah angrily glared at Otto, she had long been annoyed by this self-proclaimed preacher of the future.
Although she was also saddened by Themis's choice, as a preacher, she knew that Themis's choice was correct. So what if he was the leader? If necessary, no one could not be sacrificed.
Because they were preachers, the highest meaning of their lives was to preach their own Dao.
Compared to the name of the leader or the lost secrets, these were all too insignificant.
And Otto didn't seem to have the self-awareness of a preacher, he only had the so-called secret in his heart.
"Trash, get out of my way!" Although Sarah was a woman, she was the number one fighter in CANC, so dealing with Otto was a piece of cake.
With a casual push, she knocked Otto to the ground and stepped on his chest.
"Hmph, you don't deserve to be a preacher, please don't sully the name of preacher in the future!"
Sarah said with disgust. Otto gritted his teeth, but his chest felt heavy, he was completely overwhelmed by Sarah's strength.
"Lord Joshua! Do something! "Ao Tuo shouted.
Sarah hurriedly turned around to look at Joshua, but Joshua didn't move, he just coldly said: "Shut up, Otto. I do want to know the secret, but destroying the angel is more important, Themis is only doing what she should do as a leader … "
Sarah smiled with a complicated expression, although there were rumors that Joshua had a close relationship with the two future people, it seemed that Joshua was still able to distinguish between priorities.
"Lord Joshua … Damn it, you're not the leader who taught me to work hard to revive the organization."
Otto suddenly raised his Neon Ray Gun and shot at Sarah who turned around. Although she sensed danger and quickly dodged, she was still hit in the head.
Half of Sarah's face melted, revealing the white bones.
Fresh blood gushed out, Sarah retreated until she leaned against the cold steel wall.
Otto roared, "Give me the plum cutter!"
"Don't even think about it!" Sarah roared.
She instinctively pulled out the knife, she knew that Otto was going to take the knife and destroy the energy core.
She would never allow Otto to set the angel free in order to save Themis from death.
But her injuries were too severe, the fragments of her cheekbone and flesh were mixed together, she could not even see her left eye, she could only barely stand, her body trembling but not falling down.
"Damn it! What are you doing! "
Joshua was enraged, he stood in front of Sarah and wanted to pull out his gun.
However, Otto reacted quickly and hit Joshua's wrist, knocking his gun out of his hand.
"Themis can't die!"
"Get out of the way! Lord Joshua! I'm just following your orders! "Otto said with determination.
"Bullshit! I would never give such an order, preachers are as close as brothers, you're not a preacher at all! " Joshua was truly furious, there had never been a case of preachers killing each other in the history of the organization.
Otto coldly replied: "This is an order from the real Lord Joshua, obtaining that anomaly is the highest order! I am indeed a preacher, you personally appointed me, as close as brothers? I'm sorry, the mission is above all else, I can't do anything about it. "
"The Iron Church is extremely sturdy, I only have …"
"You people who have not experienced the destruction of the organization have yet to truly realize it, still holding on to your ridiculous beliefs … Lord Joshua, think about it, you're clearly a realist through and through!"
Joshua was stunned, then suddenly laughed: "I am indeed a realist."
Sarah was shocked. She stared at Joshua's back with her remaining eye.
