Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

Chapter 227 Variables, but as expected
After practicing, Xia Lan slept for about three or four hours, and then was awakened by something unspeakable.

After careful comprehension, he walked out of the room, his eyes fell on the opposite door, thinking about whether to inform the two heartless deep-sea hunters.

"Forget it." He sighed slightly in his heart, went outside, brushed off the rain and dew on the hanging chair in the morning glow, put his soul's vision in this huge ecological garden, and radiated his consciousness to his heart's content.

After listening to the "breathing" of all things in the forest for a few minutes, the indescribable feeling came to my heart again - and the last time it came was when he faced the ocean and went deep into Isamara's soul .

In other words, something is constantly brewing that may bring his death in the not-too-distant future.

This is the power over fate given to him by the system, and it has helped him escape many crises, and it is still functioning stably at this time, without any reservations.

Even though the timer was forcibly stopped, the system still maintained its conscientious assistance to him.

Obviously, this unknown crisis is not imminent, but to the extent that it can be avoided by doing something, and then it depends on his operation.

He called out the smart terminal, and then received an email from Haina:
"Mr. Xia Lan, we will start the Ascension to the Gods at 11:21 today. It originated from a concept before we subverted. We haven't done any related experiments so far, so the result has huge uncertainty. , I hope you can come and help when the time comes."

Looking at this rather vague "commission", he touched his chin, but instinctively felt that it was not the real source of this crisis, and that the real danger seemed to come from other aspects.

"Then what else could it be?" He rubbed his chin reckoningly, looked at the simulated blue sky and white clouds in the sky, and said worriedly: "This can't be about being invincible under the world, an enemy coming from the sky... that kind of thing is not necessary. what!"

"It can't be that it was discovered while doing the experiment, and then wiped out at once." He couldn't help thinking along this line of thought, and the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he became.

In the end, he gave up thinking, and while repeatedly realizing the warning from fate, he began to make breakfast for the two deep-sea hunters.

Although their physiques didn't care about what to eat at all, Xia Lan still chose a delicate, light and high-nutrition breakfast.

Amidst the crisp sound of pots and pans colliding, Ghost Shark suddenly sat up, squeezed Skadi's tender and firm white face, and called out: "It's time to get up and eat breakfast!"

"Huh...?" Skadi, who felt as if he was lifting some boundless heavy object in a dream, responded blankly, opened his eyes with difficulty, and only recovered a little after recalling what Ghost Shark said just now. Spirited, sat up rubbing his hair.

"What's going on... I feel so tired..." Skadi said vaguely, pulling off the quilt on his body, and leaning his head on the shoulder of the ghost shark.

"Uh, wife, I used your soul computing power to run some things last night. I didn't expect the sequelae to be so serious. I promise it won't happen next time." Xia Lan's awkward voice made Ghost Shark turn over. a blank stare.

"Forget it, let me help you." She shook her head and helped the dazed Skadi out of the bed, quickly helped her take off her lovely pajamas, and started to help her get dressed.

The dazed Skadi came all the way to the dining table, and only after smelling the aroma of the food did he feel more refreshed.

While eating breakfast, the ghost shark's terrifying gaze made Xia Lan feel like she was sitting on pins and needles. She always felt that she was about to blow herself up on the spot, and secretly swore in her heart that she would never hurt her wife again.

Monogamous, but Skadi's monogamous.

"I'm going to help the lab today, and I won't come back to eat at noon. You can make something yourself... Try not to make a mess." He raised his head and said.

"Huh?" Ghost Shark snorted softly, as if he was still angry with him.

Skadi vaguely agreed, without saying anything more—and it seemed that she was so dizzy that she didn't notice the worry in Xia Lan's heart because she had exhausted her energy too much.

Farewell to the two deep-sea hunters, Xia Lan walked slowly through the lake and the forest, and took a small lift to the Institute of Ore Diseases. She planned to memorize the experimental results at this stage first, so as to prevent disasters from happening and to sacrifice all her efforts. The east flow.

After verifying his identity, he opened the door of the laboratory, and in the depths of the dark space was a slightly fluorescent desk.

"Mr. Xia Lan?" Kaido's voice sounded from the source of the light, and then Xia Lan saw that the dim light brightened and gradually spread to the entire laboratory.

"Spent the night here again last night?" He greeted, came to the side of the central projection screen, and opened the research data file.

Not only the research on the pathogenic mechanism of ore disease, but also the speculation of the final solution, the treatment plan under the current medical system... etc., they are all extremely important research materials, which contain more than ten days and nights of their work in shifts .

"Well, there's nothing you can do about it. After all, you said before that most of their experiments have been completed, and the final construction plan is still missing. I'm afraid the results will be available within five days... I'm afraid this time is a bit tight. It's gone." Kaido, who had dark circles under his eyes, spread his hands helplessly.

Seeing that Xia Lan dug out the research materials, he came forward and opened a page to introduce: "This is the result I calculated last night. I slightly modified the material ratio. Although the effect may be slower, it is cheaper than the previous year. 3.7%, there should be room for improvement.”

"Well, the current formula should be cheap enough." Xia Lan nodded slightly, silently calculating in her heart.

The current production equipment requirements are still one iteration higher than the current peak level of Terra Continent, but the few secret devices in Rhodes Island have been able to achieve stable output, and it will be easy for him to rub a few more hands-on machines by then. scale up production.

"Kachi~" There was a sound of the mechanical door opening behind him, and then Lin Nan walked in with a meal.

"It's so early, Mr. Xia Lan, here is Kaido's breakfast, I knew you didn't go back to the dormitory last night." Lin Nan greeted and put the food on Kaido's table, walked to the side to start own computing terminal.

Kaido ate without hesitation, while Lin Nan came to Xia Lan curiously, watching him read the research materials.

Seeing his puzzled look but not daring to ask, Xia Lan shrugged and said, "Heimdall and the others are going to implement the final plan at noon today. I'm worried that something might go wrong then, so I'll write down the experimental data first."

He paused, glanced at the two of them, and said: "You can also get ready, at least memorize the most important content first, memorize as much as possible, don't think about relying on storage devices."

Seeing this, the two shook their heads amusedly, and Kaido immediately explained: "We have studied for so long, and the information has already been locked in our brains, and we will never make mistakes unless we hit our heads and lose our memory."

"Uh... alright." Xia Lan shrugged slightly and continued to read the information.

It can't be said to be ten lines at a glance, but it can only be said to be quantum speed reading. Simple memory is not difficult for Xia Lan who can actively use brain and soul resources.

While Xia Lan squatted aside memorizing the information, the number of people in the laboratory gradually increased, and now the total number has expanded to fifteen people, three researchers, and twelve mercenaries. An ultra-modern ore disease research institute that is frantically striving for the future of mankind.

……

At exactly eleven o'clock that day, Xia Lan came to the Soul Loom.

He took the elevator to the depths of the ground, and the scene in front of him almost made him think that this place was invaded by evil gods!
A whirlpool of white mist hovered in the crystal forest, and in the center of the cradle was an hourglass-like object with a white interior and a black exterior. The surrounding white mist was pouring in from above and ejecting from below.

Like a magnetic field?

Apart from this seemingly ethereal and mysterious vision, this space also gave Xia Lan a very strong sense of danger, and it was difficult for her soul perception to penetrate into it.

"What's the situation?" He walked quickly into the control room, frowning tightly and asked.

The current situation is... These two people seem to be planning to conduct a very, very dangerous experiment that may even be out of control. If this is the ascension to the gods, it will be extremely difficult.

"The status quo is like this. You just need to wait and watch. If it really fails, just destroy it with all your strength." Heimdall replied, and continued to focus on the operating procedures without saying anything.

The same is true for Henna on the other side, who didn't seem to respond to Xia Lan's question at all.

Facing the riddles of the two and the "hysterical" emotion in their souls, Xia Lan hesitated for a moment--obviously, they seem to be planning to stimulate the experiment because of certain things progress, and I'm afraid I can't be persuaded by myself in a few words.

"Then I will make my own judgment, okay?" Xia Lan frowned and said, "I will judge by myself whether and how to make a move."

"Of course." Heimdall replied in a deep voice, and it seemed that he really planned to go all out.

Seeing this, Xia Lan rubbed her chin and sat back on her throne, and the time soon came to [-]:[-].

This time point should be taken from astrokinematics...Anyway, Xia Lan doesn't understand it, so just follow along.

But he always felt that this was a conspiracy, Heimdall and the others set a trap for themselves that they had to jump.

"Ten, nine, eight... three, two, one, drops!"

As the countdown counted down to zero, Xia Lan's scalp suddenly felt numb, and then Skadi's worried voice sounded from the bottom of her heart: "Xia Lan, what happened to you?!"

At the same time, in the ecological park, Skadi suddenly raised his head and said to the ghost shark: "Something happened to Xia Lan, I have to help him!"

Seeing this, Ghost Shark immediately dropped the statue he was carving, followed Skadi back into the room, watched her close her eyes with a frown, and at the same time looked at the source of the vibration under her feet.

This slight vibration ran through the entire ecological park, and everyone felt panicked, and the birds and beasts in the forest ran wildly because of this, as if the end of the world was coming.

As for the person who faced the source of the shock directly - Xia Lan, he couldn't sit still at all.

"Xia Lan!" Skadi's anxious call sounded from the bottom of his heart, and then he felt a strong warmth coming from his body, and immediately took over her power.

Looking at the crazy whirlpool through Xia Lan's eyes, Skadi couldn't help but ask, "What happened?!"

Although she could see the answer from Xia Lan's consciousness, she still couldn't understand it.

"I don't know!" Xia Lan replied.

Just at the moment when the countdown ended, the hourglass and vortex, which were flowing fairly smoothly, suddenly accelerated. Not only did the hourglass suddenly expand into a black sphere with inner light, but the white mist around it also instantly became like a streamer. The flow speed of the substance instantly exceeded the discernment limit of the naked eye.

And not only on the material level, this super-fast flowing matter also has a lot of damage to the mental body. Xia Lan can feel bursts of burning pain when she touches it a little bit. If she is in it, she may die for three to five minutes at most. .

"Can we really stop it when we have to?" Skadi whispered.

"Let's try it first and then talk." Xia Lan shrugged helplessly, activated Xia's spell hidden in her soul, transformed a huge amount of basic divine power in her body, and took a small step towards the elemental life form.

The sudden change in Xia Lan caused the expressions of the two people watching the center of the vortex to change slightly. After exchanging expressions, Heimdall and Hana continued to pay attention to the data on the central control system.

Although it looked extremely dangerous, the data displayed by the instrument was very stable, so stable that even they would be surprised.

But since the readings are stable, they can only wait quietly before the mutation occurs.

If nothing else happens, there will be accidents - both of them think so.

But they didn't want it. Their very stable emotions would make Xia Lan misjudge their attitude, so that when an accident happened, it would delay Xia Lan for several seconds.

……

At 47:26, at the [-]th minute of the Soul Loom’s overload operation, the detector gave the first abnormal data—it was a small peak that looked very inconspicuous in the entire scanning band, but it caused The three people paid high attention at the same time.

"What does it mean?" Xia Lan asked quickly.

After being blessed with divine power, he became very...quick.

Six seconds later, Haina, who is more proficient in soul science, gave her answer: "There are five possibilities for this crest, explosion, collapse, disorder, growth, and complete unknown, but it is definitely not the answer we need anyway. .”

They also adjusted their nerve response speed, so that outsiders seemed to be sped up by the video, and their mouths were about to burst into flames.

After getting the answer, Xia Lan turned her head to look outside, and said in a low voice, "Then hope it is a possibility that can be corrected."

……

[The 42nd minute when the soul loom is overloaded]

Several fluctuations in a row were suddenly marked by the intelligent system. Without further ado, Haina quickly analyzed them, and quickly said: "The possibility has been narrowed down to two options, growth and unknown."

"'Growth' means that this virtual soul, which is largely like a real soul, is germinating self-awareness. Once it is successfully germinated, the consequences will be disastrous, and the unknown side will be unpredictable."

"Huh?! What the hell did you use as the basic material!" Xia Lan couldn't help cursing.

Facing Xia Lan's questioning, the two shook their heads and said, "Sorry, we can't tell you now."

"You still want to hide it from me at this time?!" Xia Lan was furious immediately, and hurriedly scolded: "I really don't know what you are thinking, if it weren't for you, you would definitely resist, and I would definitely put you Open your brains and see!"

Even Skadi, who is usually straightforward and straightforward, felt a little bit indignant.

But right now is not a good time to question, Xia Lan then asked: "So, what should I do?!"

"Use your method to destroy its will. As long as we can destroy its will, we can further interfere with its growth and guide it into the form we want." Haina replied immediately, and Xia Lan's prepared appearance made Xia Lan more annoyed.

"Okay!" Xia Lan said angrily and laughing again, and when she came to the string window, thunder like waves and dragons spewed out from her body crazily.

His hair gradually shone, his clothes ignited with lightning, his skin printed runes, and the galaxy in his eyes slowly began to flow, shine, and burst!
"Crack, bang!" After a thunderous explosion, a bolt of lightning pierced through the energy isolation barrier of the former peak of civilization, forming countless shining traces in the crystal forest, and finally hit the The center of the vortex has expanded to a black sphere half a meter in size.

The wind and cloud ceased, and the sobs that only the soul could hear quietly died away.

Heimdall and Henna were fascinated by the sight, facing such an ideal ultimate life form, they forgot to pay attention to the smart terminal for a while.

However, the running program they wrote in advance in the terminal automatically started running, and a large number of buzzing crystal flying objects were like locusts passing through, crazily gnawing at the white smoke that collapsed and stagnated due to the loss of core.

"Boom—crack—!" Another thunderclap exploded in the jungle of crystals, and a purple-gold lightning that twisted nine times pierced through the string window and hit the metal-structured ground, blasting out a burst of sparks.

After the lightning expanded and gushed, the mist from the fire extinguisher covered the brilliant light and gradually extinguished it.

A hand that was shining with electric light pushed away the steaming mist, revealing Xia Lan's rather ugly face underneath.

The galaxy in his eyes is no longer boiling, and it even looks darker than usual.
