After returning to the four-dimensional desert on Earth, Bai Ge released Hong Meng.
Hong Meng looked around and said, "Is this a parallel Earth?"
Bai Ge shook his head and said, "No, this is the real first Earth. The multiverse you know all originated from an anomaly on this planet. The Defying Fate you know, his hometown is also here."
Hong Meng was stunned. Although he was also an Earthling, he was not from this Earth.
He was a smart person, and he knew about anomalies and phone booths. Therefore, he immediately realized that everything he had come into contact with, seen, and understood was nothing more than the result of an anomaly on this primeval Earth.
This was the origin of the multiverse.
He was born in a derived world, lived in a derived world, rose in a derived world, and traversed through many derived worlds.
But compared to this place, perhaps his life was simply too short.
This Earth was the real place with 4.6 billion years of history.
In an instant, Earth's position in his heart rose.
"Primeval Earth, no wonder it gave birth to someone like you … and the Defying Fate … this world must be much stronger than other worlds. After all, it was the first one." Hong Meng sighed.
Bai Ge could not help but laugh. He shook his head and said, "The first is the strongest? There's something wrong with your way of thinking. "
"It's definitely the most special one, but the universe itself is not divided into strong and weak. I won't explain to you what's hypostasis. You only need to know that the existence of the multiverse is just a drop of water divided into billions of parts. "
"May I ask, after the separation, which drop is the largest?"
Hong Meng smiled and said, "You said it's an equal division, so of course it's the same. I understand now. Only you who are truly from this primeval Earth will know this, and people from other universes will never be able to tell which is first. So we will strive to dominate the multiverse and increase the number of multiverses for profit … but you are the exact opposite. "
Before returning, he had seen the Spoon Army and Bai Ge's arrangements for the 40 billion Reincarnators.
He knew that the Lan Bai She was carrying out a grand plan to curb the growth of the multiverse, and it was likely that they would strive to return to their original state in the future.
At that time, he found it strange. Why? It was a strenuous and thankless task. The universe was abundant and had abundant resources, so why not?
Only now did he realize that the amount of resources would never increase. It only looked like there were more resources, but in reality, it did not change.
"However, there's nothing bad about this. Everyone is the same. Will all the universes collapse when it reaches the limit? "Hong Meng asked.
Bai Ge shook his head and said, "One person becomes one hundred people on average. Of course, there won't be any feelings between them. But what if you're not the only one in the world?"
Hong Meng was shocked. "You mean …"
Bai Ge waved his hand and interrupted him, indicating that there was no need to ask any more questions.
After saying that, he turned into a streak of light again and left the four-dimensional desert together with Hong Meng.
He did not stay on Earth for long. Instead, he went straight to a universe that was purely about technology.
Of course, Bai Ge couldn't have conjured the Blue and White Mirror in his hometown.
The anomaly that appeared due to the Blue and White Mirror appeared on Earth in a normal universe.
This Earth was already under the control of the Lan Bai Society. The people on it lived and worked in peace and contentment. There were no supernatural beings, and it was still at the peak of a primitive civilization.
They arrived at the Pacific Ocean base and lay on the beach.
Bai Ge wasn't in a hurry to take them in himself. In fact, the process of taking them in had already begun when he was dealing with the Lord Gods.
At this point, it was said that they were almost done, so he only needed to wait for his subordinates to send them over and send them into the brain hole for final confirmation.
Meanwhile, Hong Meng obediently stood on one side and told him about the foundation's information.
Other than the classification of the anomaly's danger level, they also had five types of members.
The first type was an administrator. They were equivalent to the old foundation's mentors, but they weren't leaders, only administrators. Furthermore, the highest level of authority an administrator had was MA.
The second type was a researcher. Not only did they study technology, but they also studied all kinds of systems. As long as there was a way to explain the world, they would study it, such as Arcana or Cultivation.
The third type was an informant. They specialized in collecting, compiling, and managing all kinds of information. The location, information, and mobilization of all anomalies had to go through their hands, with the highest level of authority even reaching XA.
The fourth type was a combatant. They filled every department and were the foundation's armed forces. But aside from combat, they couldn't manage anything else. Most of the time, they were jointly commanded by researchers and informants.
The fifth type was a governor. The most unique of them all was the supreme commander of multiple universes, which could also be understood as a branch head. Half of the foundation's personnel were responsible to the various governors. The remaining half, including the governors, were all responsible to Fate Defying.
Hong Meng explained: "There are a total of 9 real governors, all of whom are Fate Defying's trusted subordinates"
"Real governors?" Bai Ge asked.
Hong Meng explained: "Because there are also some who are called governors, but in reality, they're more like governors without any real authority. Some of them are powerful and accepted the foundation's offer of amnesty, some of them have strange anomalies that aren't worth much, some of them have made great contributions to the foundation but don't have much time left … so they've been sent to a few non-anomalous universes to retire"
"In fact, this is also one of the foundation's benefits. There are many universes, and those with high contributions are often granted a planet or an entire universe as a guardian's manor, nominally owning everything there, like private property. If they're relieved of all duties and only have guardian duties left, they'll be relegated to the second line of duty "
"Ah?" Bai Ge raised his eyebrows, but he wasn't too surprised. Because even the Lan Bai She had given some living space to the dragons and the Tree of Life.
However, they would never give them a civilized planet, but rather a desolate place for them to exploit … or eat.
"I see, in other words, only the governors can be considered an opponent" Bai Ge commented. As the highest-ranking commander, governors were already leaders. The 9 governors and Fate Defying were the ones who truly controlled the foundation.
As for the other members, they were the workers who worked, the small gears that maintained the foundation's huge operations.
Hong Meng and his wife used to be one of those small gears, but since Hong Meng was one of the intelligence agents, he was able to grasp a few things.
"Each governor has several anomalies under their control, some even have over a dozen of them. However, only one or two of them can truly pose a threat to you "Hong Meng explained.
Bai Ge nodded: "Not all anomalies can be used, and you probably have more than just the [Emotional Hourglass], right?"
Hong Meng hurriedly replied: "That's right, I've carefully collected three anomalies, but the only one that can be used against you is the [Emotional Hourglass]. However, I didn't think that even the [Emotional Hourglass] would be useless against you …"
Saying so, he took out two more anomalies and gave them to Bai Ge.
One of them was a pair of scissors, while the other was a seemingly normal microphone, both of which were originally prepared to be used against the Fate Defying Foundation.
Hong Meng explained: "This pair of scissors can cut off the sense of existence of any matter it sees. When I truly wanted to take revenge against the Fate Defying Foundation, I had to rely on it to get close to the Fate Defying Foundation, otherwise, I would have been discovered as soon as I arrived in his universe. However, I've been hesitant about this for a long time, so I didn't take revenge. Once the sense of existence is lost, it will never return "
"However, this microphone is very useful. Using it to sing, it can release a sound wave at the speed of light that can travel through any medium. This sound wave will resonate with all matter, including space-time, causing their temperature, mass, movement speed, wavelength, fundamental force, the distance between the nucleus and the electron, as well as their spin frequency to fluctuate abnormally. In other words, everything in the universe, space-time, and so on will dance to it. Although it won't harm the singer and is a very gentle anomaly, it's still too gentle. So far, I still haven't been able to figure out how to amplify the changes in those parameters by singing, to the point where the structure of matter and space-time would be destroyed. In short, the intensity of the fluctuations isn't based on the volume of my voice "
"I've tried many times, but I still can't kill lifeforms with even a bit of vitality. The only thing I can do is to use the fluctuations of chaotic brain waves to make it difficult for the listener to think, or make them extremely slow. I've tried about 300,000 songs of all styles, but I still can't figure out how to amplify its power. Even now, I still haven't been able to find a song of mass destruction "
Bai Ge nodded, but didn't store it into his brain, instead, he had Ling Dang's avatar take it for research.
"There are more and more anomalies …" Bai Ge sighed.
Dealing with the Fate Defying Foundation wasn't going to be easy. This was an organization with a large number of anomalies, and it was no longer the same as the small skirmishes on Earth.
This was much harder to deal with than dealing with the organized forces of the Lord Gods. The powerful Lan Bai Society might be able to suppress Reincarnators, but they might not be able to easily suppress people with anomalies.
Although Bai Ge was confident in the Lan Bai Society's ability to deal with anomalies, he couldn't be too sure about anomalies.
"Should I establish an anomaly unit as well?" Bai Ge pondered.
This was an idea that he wouldn't have considered in the past.
But now, the Lan Bai Society really did seem to need a special unit, one that had both normal strength and controllable anomalies.
The Fate Defying Foundation already had such a force, the Governor was one of them, followed by a few special researchers and intelligence agents.
According to the information provided by Hongmeng, the Fate Defying Foundation had been using anomalies in various aspects.
They would select the ones with the most moderate costs and distribute them to the most suitable people.
When the number of universes was so large that the foundation of matter, space, and life force were all extremely large, the cost of a few anomalies was basically negligible.
"Are you really talking about a containment organization? If it's an organization with the goal of containment, why would they still create anomaly universes? "Bai Ge asked.
Hongmeng replied: "If there weren't enough anomalies, the Fate Defying Foundation would have been destroyed a long time ago. I don't know if they're still doing that, but at the beginning, they did create a lot of anomaly universes"
"Furthermore, I've heard from a few old staff members that at the beginning, there were a few anomalies that had to be used at a terrifying cost"
"Perhaps it would require a lot of human lives, then they would pay with human lives"
"Perhaps it would require the sacrifice of an entire civilization's wisdom, then they would sacrifice an entire civilization"
"Perhaps it would cause an uncontrollable meme to spread in an entire universe, then they would sacrifice an entire universe to cut off the meme"
"Of course, ever since I joined the Fate Defying Foundation, the Fate Defying Foundation has become very powerful, so there's no need to do that"
Bai Ge was a bit surprised. Using a normal unlucky universe as a place to vent their frustrations wasn't something a small organization could afford to do, only a cross-universe organization could afford to do.
But being able to afford it and being willing to do it were two different things.
Bai Ge scowled: "Why do I feel like Fate-defying Foundation is more … purely trying to create a containment organization?"
"Not to protect anything, but simply out of interest?"
