"Of course I'm going back …"
Rather than staying here, he might as well go back and fight.
In his timeline, there were Lan Mu's friends, subordinates, and everyone he had protected countless times. Lan Mu belonged there.
If he stayed here, he might be invincible, he might be able to rule over countless worlds, he might be able to regain his unparalleled authority, but he would never be able to replenish the Life Orb.
Normal people were always afraid of death, but he was no longer the original Lan Mu. Even the Zapis knew to keep moving forward without backing down. When their imagination was taken away and they couldn't move forward, they would rather die.
"If you go back now, you'll die without a doubt" Ordonis told him.
"I know, this isn't something that can be solved with mere awareness. At the very least, I need a way to deal with his Higher Dimensional attack"
Ordonis smiled: "Since you've decided, I'll help you!"
Lan Mu asked: "How do you want to help me?"
"Anomalies that are related to dimensions can be found on Earth. When your strongest form appears, you can take those anomalies back. I'll record them as destroyed, since there's no difference whether you take them away or they're destroyed "Ordonis said.
Lan Mu refuted: "That won't do you any good at all"
Ordonis laughed.
"Although I said that sooner or later, humans will also be clear about 001 and defeat him. But I also know that it's almost impossible. But you, have given me hope. You might be the only living being who can represent everything, the only one who can challenge the supreme will "
"All existences and non-existences, imaginative and realistic, are contained within the Life Orb. Except for humans "
"Now tell me, are you human?"
Lan Mu replied with a stern voice: "Of course I am human"
Ordonis nodded: "Then … you and the Life Orb represent the collective of all living beings, while 001 represents nature"
"The struggle between life and nature is an eternal theme"
"If one day, you find out about the ultimate truth of the universe, then please … come back and tell me"
Lan Mu nodded: "I will"
Ordonis also smiled: "I hope that in my lifetime, I'll be able to wait for your answer"
…
Netherlands, Zindert.
Lan Mu and Odonis came here to look for an anomaly that had dimensional characteristics.
Only the two of them were involved in this operation. As for the others, some of them headed to America, following the locations that Audonis had given them to excavate the anomalies buried by Azriel.
Of course, there was also a portion that was guarding the Atlantic base. They didn't have many people to begin with, so Lan Mu didn't need to bring any extra people.
"There are two anomalies in this city, most likely in the possession of two people who don't know each other at all"
"One of them is the Ghost Hook. As long as the wielder can see it, he can throw out the hook and pull the target in front of him. This process is irresistible, and the target will definitely be drawn close to him. Furthermore, it is also harmful to the soul. An ordinary person will die after being hooked once. The side effect is also very obvious. You will hate sunlight. "
"This might be useful. It will allow you to pull Victor to your side."
Hearing that, Lan Mu shook his head: "It's useless. I can also use the Blade of Divine Concealment to get close to him, but the [Aura of Equality]'s domain is too slow. At our level, the range of the [Aura of Equality] is too large, so it's very easy for us to unleash our abilities."
Odonis continued: "Hm, the second item is our target. It's a type of pigment. This pigment will naturally increase in number, but if you absorb too much of it, it will slowly transform your body into a higher dimension, gradually giving you high-dimensional vision, high-dimensional hearing, high-dimensional interference, and other effects. As this effect becomes more and more intense, you'll basically become a half-higher dimensional creature."
Lan Mu blinked and asked: "What's the use of that?"
"I heard that I'm finished." Odonis continued: "That's only one of its characteristics. Its most powerful characteristic is that using this pigment to draw a picture is equivalent to creating a 2-D space-time. If you draw it realistically, you'll be able to pull the object into a 2-D space-time and flatten it into a picture. Note that this is a 2-D space-time in a picture, unlike a 2-D space-time in a 3-D space-time, it won't intersect with reality at all. To be precise, it should be called a 2-D dimension. Everything there can be strange and collapsed. There can be no science there, or rather, there can be no science there. "
"Furthermore, the person being drawn will become a 2-D creature. This means that the other party won't be able to return to our world, let alone have any talent as a high-dimensional creature."
Lan Mu was overjoyed: "That's the thing I want! As long as I draw Victor in, he'll never be able to come out. "
"It's not that simple. Its side effects are equally great. The painter can also fall into the painting. This possibility increases with the target's energy level. If you pull an ordinary person, it might be fine, but the stronger the person you pull in, the more danger you'll be in, "Odonis reminded.
Lan Mu was stunned and murmured: "Victor has unlimited energy …"
Odonis said: "Yes, so this also means that if you pull him into the painting, you'll definitely enter the painting yourself. 100%! "
"This … Aren't I trapped too …" Lan Mu was speechless.
Odonis said: "No matter how strong the person in the painting is, it's impossible to affect the person outside the painting. It only exists when someone enters it. If someone destroys the painting from the outside, everything inside will be destroyed by a high-dimensional attack. This 2-D dimension will no longer exist and will be completely wiped out. However, people who were originally in a 3-D space-time will return to their own space-time. But take note, the flow of time is different. It's very likely that you'll only be inside for a short while, but hundreds of years will have passed outside. "
Lan Mu's eyes lit up. He understood.
To put it bluntly, the dimension in the painting could be treated as if it didn't exist. It was meaningless compared to reality.
Although it was also a problem with the dimension, it was in the painting. It was in a state of chaos that existed and did not exist at the same time. It was different from the 2-D space-time Lan Mu encountered in the universe.
The 2-D space-time Lan Mu encountered existed in a 3-D space-time. Therefore, it would expand like the universe and collapse 3-D.
However, the 2-D dimension was different. It existed in an indescribable place and had nothing to do with Lan Mu's universe. If there was no 2-D pigment, it would be meaningless.
The 2-D pigment would give it a landing point, causing it to collapse from a chaotic state to a certain result. Existence or non-existence, this was relative. It depended on whether one believed in its existence or not.
Everything depended on the views of the people outside the painting.
Lan Mu said: "What you mean is that if I enter the painting with him at the same time and then fight in the 2-D dimension, if I kill him, I can wait for the painting to be destroyed and come out."
"This way, I'll have a lot more confidence. No one has any high-dimensional abilities there, so it's a battle of strength."
Odonis thought for a while and said: "You can't draw a 2-D dimension without a background yet, or you'll die as soon as you enter … At the very least, you have to draw a universe background or a planet background."
"I understand …" Lan Mu nodded.
He did not pick and choose. This was actually very important. If he could break Victor's high-dimensional ability, then the Victor that Lan Mu would have to face would only have the characteristic of unlimited energy and a level 6 combat strength.
At least, he had narrowed the gap between him and Victor.
"This alone is not enough. Your chances of winning are still very low," Odonis said. "Just the fact that he has unlimited energy alone makes him pseudo-invincible. You have to have a way to kill him at the root."
Lan Mu blurted out: "Scapegoat Pen?"
Odonis said: "Yes, the Scapegoat Pen's root source is very high. To a certain extent, it's very similar to your Life Sphere."
"What!"
Odonis explained: "The scapegoat is equivalent to the host's reserve transformation. The moment the host dies, the scapegoat will be erased, and the information will be transferred to the host and covered. Other than the appearance, the race, ability, and everything else will change. "
"Because George's scapegoats are all humans, and he's also a human, you can't see this point. But if you use it, the replacement will be very obvious. If you're a member of the Blood Race and suddenly die, and the one who died for you is a human, then you'll become a human. Since you have the Life Sphere, you should be able to understand this phenomenon. "
Lan Mu naturally understood. It was indeed very similar, but the Life Sphere had unlimited tolerance. It did not cover the information, but switched.
"In other words, if I want to use the Scapegoat Pen to kill Victor, I'll have to sacrifice one of my transformations and be covered by all the information characteristics of Silver Heart Victor," Lan Mu said.
Odonis smiled: "It's like this. You're really blessed. If it were someone else, it would be equivalent to becoming Victor forever.
"But you can perfectly control the Scapegoat Pen!"
