Chapter 1387 A Truth
Haoren hadn't expected that Raven 12345's inspection would be so quick. He was a little stunned for a moment: "Huh? Is that it?"
"No, it's not completely over yet. Some data needs to be reorganized… some variations need to be corrected, but I may have discovered a secret hidden in the bloodline of the Demon Hunters," Raven 12345 said as she continued to rapidly outline runes in the air. These runes would immediately spread and disappear into the ubiquitous mist, as if there was a huge and invisible magical formula here. And the crystal prisms that penetrated the ceiling throughout the hall were emitting a faint halo, a faint hum coming from the crystal prisms, like a resonance. "I've long suspected the position of these Demon Hunters in the whole incident… Holletta, such a frontier planet, how could it be qualified to be involved in an event of the level of the Godslayer War? One of the parties in the Godslayer War even made arrangements on that planet, allowing the locals to produce a super-synthesized human—did the Godslayer have time to guide the people in remote mountainous areas to engage in production amidst their busy schedule?"
What Raven 12345 said was exactly what Hao Ren had recently begun to suspect. He widened his eyes and looked at the goddess in disbelief: "Have you found the key to this?"
Raven 12345 temporarily slowed down her manipulation and turned to look at Hao Ren: "This guess is very troublesome to explain. First, do you know what this hall is for?"
"An observation room," Hao Ren glanced around the empty room. "What you just said."
"It's not that simple. If I just wanted to make an observation room, I wouldn't have put it in the White Tower," Raven 12345 smiled mysteriously. "The most basic eco-capsule can complete the measurement of any mortal species, and this White Tower… it is the core research facility of this 'God Realm' that I have established. This tower is directly connected to my soul and is an extension of my thinking. It has almost the same level of divine power as me. It can even be said that, except for the lack of independent personality and thought, the tower itself is equivalent to a true god of my level."
Hao Ren now realized how extraordinary this so-called "observation room" was: "So this is…"
"This is a 'God Simulator'," Raven 12345 raised an eyebrow, her face full of the expression of "I'm super strong and awesome." "In this hall, I simulated the power of the Creation Goddess—with the help of the White Tower's computing power and energy level, I achieved 100% restoration."
Hao Ren couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss… what does that mean?"
"What the hell are you sucking air for if you didn't understand!" Raven 12345 glared at him. "I was wondering why you were suddenly so mentally agile."
"Although I don't understand, it feels very powerful," Hao Ren's face didn't change. "And it's polite to take a breath of cool air at this time to make you look very powerful."
Raven 12345 waved her hand: "Tch… in short, within the scope of this room, the Creation Goddess is equivalent to being still alive!"
Hao Ren understood this time, and he was really shocked: "Holy crap? How did you do it?"
"Thanks to the Truth Stone Slab you discovered, and the original divine power characteristics of the Creation Goddess collected in Koror," Raven 12345 nodded approvingly at Hao Ren. "I have to say, your achievements there were impressive. With the help of the things you found, I carved out an independent space inside the White Tower, and the White Tower translated my divine power and placed it in the origin position from the perspective of cause and effect. I didn't simply copy and store the energy of the Creation Goddess, but directly reproduced the fact that 'the Creation Goddess is still alive' here. As long as you enter this place and activate the settings here, the fact that the Creation Goddess is still alive will be established in this hall. Of course, since this is something simulated by the White Tower, the Creation Goddess who survives here has no thoughts or independent personality, at best just a blank server."
As she spoke, Raven 12345 breathed a sigh of relief: "Also, because there is another god 'existing' here, even my own power will be interfered with to a certain extent. When manipulating the Creation Goddess's divine power, I have to use the assistance of these runes, even if these divine powers are drawn from myself."
"I understand, I understand," Hao Ren nodded, and had to admit that the goddess with a sick mind was indeed quite capable. "You let these Demon Hunters, or rather, the Ancient Ones, come into contact with her under the premise that the Creation Goddess is still alive, and you observed the impact they had on the eve of the Godslayer War? What exactly was the impact?"
Raven 12345 raised her hand and drew an arc in the air, and the ubiquitous mist immediately changed. Countless colorful light curtains appeared in the mist, like the aurora borealis spreading in the space. Between the light curtains, you could see many jumping bright lines, which seemed to divide the aurora curtain into pieces like interference on a background wave.
"This is a demonstration diagram. The real operation of divine power is far more complicated than this. It's an extremely profound mathematical process," Raven 12345 explained. "Through observation, I discovered one thing: the energy emitted by the artificial divine cells in the Demon Hunters has the same frequency and wavelength as the divine power of the Creation Goddess—of course, the energy level between the two is vastly different, but from the perspective of the characteristic code, the two are almost the same."
"This… is not difficult to imagine," Hao Ren frowned. "Because the 'original energy' used by those magic emperors to create the Demon Hunters back then was a sample of the divine power of the Creation Goddess. The first batch of divine cells mutated under the radiation of the divine power of the Creation Goddess."
"That's right, Lorissa still retains this part of the characteristics," Raven 12345 nodded slightly, and then suddenly brought up another matter. "Do you remember that in the later stages of the Godslayer War, the Creation Goddess sent out a call for help to all the god-made ecosystems in the universe, but did not receive any response?"
How could Hao Ren forget this: "Of course I remember, this is also one of the fuses that stimulated the complete madness of the Guardian race. But according to my later investigation, the mortal races in various parts of the universe did not receive this call for help at that time, even if they still maintained their faith in the Creation Goddess at that time, and even carried out various sacrificial rituals, they did not receive a letter… wait, could it be that this signal…"
"It seems you guessed it too," Raven 12345's voice became serious. "If I guessed correctly, these signals were intercepted by the Demon Hunters, or rather, the 'Ancient Ones'."
Hao Ren was greatly surprised: "How is this possible?! How could they have the ability to do such a thing? And they have no motivation to do so at all!"
"That's right, they have no motivation. In fact, even they themselves probably don't know that they once intercepted the Creation Goddess's request for help sent to the entire universe. They don't have this ability either. So rather than saying they 'intercepted' this signal, it's better to say that this signal took the initiative to transfer to them. Then, because there were no subsequent nodes, these requests for help became invalid."
Hao Ren frowned tightly: "What exactly is going on?"
"The divine cells in the Demon Hunters are an incredible success. Although the energy level is very low, in terms of nature, these things have successfully stolen the 'characteristic code' of the Creation Goddess. Do you know about disguised embedded viruses? These Demon Hunters are disguised embedded viruses. Although there are only trace amounts of divine cells in their bodies, these cells are enough for them to imitate the divine power characteristics of the Creation Goddess. Then, they can use this to deceive a certain 'certification' and embed themselves into the communication network between the Creation Goddess and the various ecosystems of the Dream Plane, and replace a part of the nodes of this network. This is why the Creation Goddess's requests for help to the subordinate ecosystems were intercepted—the interception did not occur externally, but internally. All the signals she sent were forwarded to the 'virtual nodes' formed by those first-generation Demon Hunters ten thousand years ago. And those virtual nodes do not have the ability to process these messages at all. In fact, the Demon Hunters can't even hear the voice of the Creation Goddess, so the ultimate fate of these signals is—a drop in the ocean, and no one even knows they ever existed."
Raven 12345 paused for a moment here, then took a long breath: "In the last moment of the Godslayer War, the connection between all the god-made ecosystems in the entire universe and the Creation Goddess was actually replaced!"
So this was the truth?
This was the truth of why the Creation Goddess called for help to all her children, but no one responded?
Hao Ren still felt a little unbelievable: "A communication network for a true god to monitor the universe, can it be so easily disintegrated from the inside?"
"You think this is easy?" Raven 12345 rolled her eyes at Hao Ren. "Stealing divine energy, converting divine power, and creating mortal cells that can simulate divine power, this is an extremely complex and dangerous process. The reason why the ancient magic emperors did this was because they received the assistance of the 'mastermind' disguised as a goddess. They obtained the Truth Stone Slab with original divine power, and they also obtained a complete set of technical data—the success rate naturally increased greatly. And the most crucial thing is that the Creation Goddess herself was negligent in this regard. She obviously did not control her divine power radiation to the entire universe well, so that she did not notice the problem with this data network in advance… otherwise, how could a true god be so easily disconnected from the network?"
"Okay, okay, it's all the fault of being uncultured," Hao Ren sighed, covering his forehead. "So this is the role that Holletta played in the Godslayer War. It was the 'interception station' used to block external communication from the God Kingdom?"
"That's right, an interception station. Because the communication network built on the basis of divine power is a virtual network, the remote physical location of Holletta is not a problem at all. And precisely because it is insignificant in the entire Dream Plane ecosystem, it can be unnoticed. No one would have thought that the information sent by the Creation Goddess would all be directed to that godforsaken place. And even if the Guardians discovered it in the end, it would already be the end of the Godslayer event. They simply didn't have time to rush from the planet of origin to Holletta, which was far away on the frontier, to solve this 'network problem'."
Hao Ren thought for a while, and suddenly had another question: "Wait a minute, according to the characteristics of true gods, the Creation Goddess's request for help to the mortal world was actually useless, right? Even if the mortals received the goddess's request for help, their prayers and feedback would have no impact on the Godslayer War, but the Creation Goddess was unaware of this. Then why did the 'mastermind' go to such great lengths to intercept those signals, even at the cost of creating a race with the help of others…"
"There is only one explanation, and that is that the 'mastermind' who made this arrangement also believes that the faith feedback of the mortal races will affect the God Kingdom. TA is just as ignorant in this regard as the Creation Goddess," Raven 12345 tapped her chin with her finger, making a thoughtful look. "This is not important. What is important is that this mastermind made targeted arrangements for this before the Godslayer War officially began!"
