Volume 3 Chapter 246 Rules? I am the rules
Since the other party was most likely waiting for him, Lin Xu was not in a hurry.
It took a few more days to wait for the human remains in the subspace to be relocated.
At the same time, we also used this time to arrange the affairs of the Gelriman people.
And there was the matter of continuing the hunt for the Kramars.
After everything was settled, Lin Xu and his party boarded the Skylark, found the nearest space crack, and passed through the space crack to enter the idealistic universe.
Despite having just taken over the Gherliman clan and having a lot of things to do, Yufei rushed to see him off.
He watched Lin Xu and his party enter the space crack, his eyes full of complexity.
Lin Xu's departure made her feel relieved, but at the same time she also felt a mountain of pressure coming down on her.
From now on, there is no longer any shelter above her head, and she has to rely on herself for everything.
Although she has integrated most of the Gelriman's power with the help of Lin Xu these days, it is not easy for her to continue to control these forces smoothly and complete the trial of some Gelriman bigwigs' crimes as instructed by Lin Xu.
Fortunately, due to the deterrent power of humans, no one will dare to resist her, at least for a period of time.
Therefore, she must completely control the Gherriman after the humans leave, before the deterrent force gradually dissipates over time.
And a trial conducted in the name of humanity is also a good opportunity to exclude dissidents.
For Yuffie, whose ambition has been ignited, there is no going back.
The Skylark passed through the space crack and entered the idealistic universe next door in the blink of an eye.
The moment he passed through the space crack, Liuli felt the power in his body come alive again.
Her consciousness can once again control the power in her body by interfering with reality.
The power that had not been used for a long time was restless in his body, as if he could break the rope under his coat with just a slight struggle, and kill the hateful woman beside him in the process.
But she knew very well that this was just her illusion, and there were some things that she could only fantasize about in her mind. In fact, as soon as Nanzhu snapped his fingers, Liuli immediately started to wake up, took small steps with a blushing face and came to Nanzhu's side.
"Yes, what can I do for you, Master?"
"Where is the Heart of Eternity? You should know, right?" Nanzhu asked on behalf of Lin Xu.
"Well, I know. We have to go in that direction, which is about 20,000 light years away." Liuli quickly glanced at the starry sky outside the porthole, identified it based on its appearance, and immediately found the route.
"Well done." Nanzhu patted her head with satisfaction.
Liuli was so happy that she almost wagged her tail.
But then she realized something was wrong.
Wait, why am I so happy? She just praised me, why should I be happy? I can't be tamed by her, right? I don't want to, I am an Eternal God.
No one knew Liuli's intense inner thoughts. The Skylark had already leaped towards the Heart of Eternity.
After the human remains obtained the technology to adapt to the rules of different universes, the Skylark's jumps became as smooth as in the previous materialistic universe.
After just two space jumps, they had arrived 20,000 light years away.
A somewhat strange cosmic phenomenon has been seen from afar.
It was a massive galaxy that was dozens of times larger than an ordinary galaxy, and it was emitting a strange light as a whole.
Not only is the star dozens of times larger than an ordinary star, there are hundreds of planets orbiting it. All of these celestial bodies, including the star, emit a strange light.
That kind of light was beyond the limit of the spectral range that could be recognized by the naked eyes of ordinary intelligent life, but Lin Xu could see it, Nan Zhu could see it, and everyone present could see it.
"That's the eternal ray. This ray can drive away any existence that wants to get close to the Heart of Eternity, whether it's intelligent life or spaceships. As long as they want to get close to the Heart of Eternity, they will be driven away by this ray and will never be able to get close to the Heart of Eternity. Only the promised people led by the Eternal Gods are qualified to enter the Heart of Eternity and enjoy eternal joy." Liuli explained.
"Eternal joy? It sounds a bit like the kingdom of God in religion." Lin Xu asked curiously.
"Yes, many Eternal Gods regard this place as a place to bless their believers . Intelligent creatures that are exposed to the Eternal Rays for a long time and at close range can gain immortality." Liuli nodded.
"You don't need any faith, so why are you so keen on having believers?" Nanzhu asked puzzled.
“Many members of the Eternal God Clan were the best in their respective clans before becoming Eternal God Clan. Many even became rulers of their respective clans. And after they became Eternal God Clan, although they no longer acknowledged themselves as a member of the original clan, they still had a sense of incense for the original clan. So although it is not convenient for them to continue to be rulers, becoming the gods believed in by the original clan and taking care of the original clan is a very good method.” Liuli explained slowly.
"You don't mean to say that many Eternal Gods directly brought their entire tribes to the Heart of Eternity?" Nanzhu suddenly thought of something.
"Some Eternal Gods do this indeed. They divide an area for their own tribe on a certain planet and let them enjoy eternal joy here. But some Eternal Gods believe that this eternal joy is more like an anesthesia. The tribe is immersed in eternal joy. Although they are immortal, no new babies are born and the entire race is no longer continuing. In a sense, what is the difference between this and complete extinction? It is better to let them continue to reproduce on their original planet and give them a little help at most." When Liuli talked about eternal joy, her tone was filled with disdain.
"So, you are from the latter faction? You didn't place your own people in the Heart of Eternity?" Nanzhu has already guessed it.
"Yes, my tribe is still multiplying in the original galaxy, but I helped them greatly improve their martial arts realm, and recently I brought them back a lot of technology from the materialistic universe. They have now occupied several galaxies. This kind of development is the best." Liuli was full of pride when talking about his tribe.
At this time, the Skylark had crossed the eternal ray repulsion and entered the Eternal Heart Galaxy.
Liuli had a look of no surprise on her face. Although the Eternal Rays could repel the entry of all beings other than the Eternal Mark Gods, it was obviously unable to resist humans.
It felt like a little girl could never resist a strong man in terms of strength, as the two were simply not in the same league.
As the Skylark entered the Heart of Eternity, figures flew out from the nearby planets and watched the small spaceship, the Skylark, from afar.
More and more figures rose from the planets, and those figures formed two rows in the distance in the starry sky, as if they were the welcoming crowds lining up on both sides of the red carpet, and the Skylark was the one walking on the red carpet.
These figures are none other than the Eternal Gods.
"It seems that the Eternal Gods have known that I was coming." Lin Xu said as he looked around.
"Do you need me to go out and find out?" Liuli thought for a moment and raised her hand weakly.
"Are you trying to take this opportunity to run away?" Nanzhu looked at her suspiciously.
"No, absolutely not, and I can't run away." Liuli suddenly felt a little aggrieved. She really wanted to help.
The main thing is that since I am destined to stay with Nanzhu forever, if I try to please her a little, I will be able to live a better life in the future.
As for running away, she really didn't think she could escape from the hands of humans. The nanorobots on her body were powerless.
Although these nanorobots have now released their control over the power in her body and can mobilize the power at her will, it would only take Nanzhu a thought to seal her power again.
"Let her go." Lin Xu said.
Liuli, who is also a member of the Eternal God Clan, is indeed a good person to gather information.
Suddenly, Liuli looked at Lin Xu with eyes full of gratitude. She felt that it was a good thing that Nanzhu had someone who could control her, otherwise, with Nanzhu's lawless behavior, who knows what would happen to her now.
However, on second thought, if Lin Xu hadn't doted on her, Nan Zhu wouldn't have become more and more lawless, so it's hard to say which is the cause and which is the effect.
So with Lin Xu's approval, Liuli was naturally allowed to leave to investigate the news.
In order not to alert the enemy, Lin Xu personally opened a space jump channel. Liuli directly passed through the jump channel and arrived at a nearby planet.
Then she rose into the air from the planet, and happened to see several figures also rising from the planet. She had seen one of them several times before, so she could be considered an acquaintance.
I immediately went over.
"Liuli? Weren't you outside the whole time? When did you come back?" The other party didn't doubt anything.
This also made Liuli feel relieved. It seemed that the Eternal Heart didn't know that she had been captured.
"I just came back. What happened? What are you doing?" Liuli took the opportunity to ask.
"Of course, it's to welcome humans." The man still had no doubts, because the Eternal Gods were an extremely loose race. They had just returned from outside, so it was normal that they didn't know what happened, so he was also eager to answer.
After all, this female Eternal God who I have met a few times is still very beautiful, or it can be said that no one who can become an Eternal God has a bad appearance.
It would be good if we could make some friends and form a partnership. Even if we are Eternal Gods, we will feel lonely if we are alone.
Liuli, who was trying to find out the news, had no idea that she had transformed into a woman filled with deep sin.
"Welcome humans? I heard that we invaded the materialistic universe not long ago, and didn't we just have a fight with humans?" Liuli continued to ask.
"Yes, before, I only knew that humans had upgraded their dimension, but after actually fighting them, I found that humans are stronger and more difficult to deal with than before. I can only say that they are worthy of being high-dimensional beings." As he spoke, he still had a lingering fear on his face, and it was obvious that he had also participated in the war not long ago.
"Then why do we welcome humans?" Liuli asked puzzledly.
"It is precisely because we cannot defeat them that we have to face them. What else can we do? Are we really going to keep fighting and then be killed?" The Eternal God gave a bitter smile, and it was obvious that he did not want to die yet.
In other words, after finally becoming an eternal god, who would want to die?
"But how do you know that humans come here to negotiate peace, not to hunt us down?" Liuli didn't understand.
"Make peace? No, humans are here to accept surrender! The Heart of Eternity held a meeting before, and we collectively voted to surrender to humans. We all surrendered, so of course humans came here to accept surrender." The other party said as a matter of course, and did not regard surrender as a big deal at all.
After all, this is surrendering to humans, so it's not shameful.
Moreover, their surrender is also conditional. It does not mean that they can be killed or chopped at will. Humans must guarantee their personal safety before they surrender.
"Vote to surrender? But even if you surrender, you have to tell humans, right? Humans don't even know you surrender, so what kind of surrender is this?" Liuli never thought that these Eternal Gods of the Eternal Heart were so funny. Could it be that they were made stupid by the Eternal Rays for too long?
She was now suddenly glad that she had never stayed in the Heart of Eternity for long before.
"Of course we did. Once the vote was announced, we used the communication signals intercepted on the battlefield to convey the surrender to the fleets under the human clan. The humans must have received it, otherwise they wouldn't have come, let alone come without any intention of fighting."
Suddenly, Liuli's face became even more strange. What kind of surrender communication was received? It was clearly a provocative communication from the Apocalypse Clan.
And the reason why he didn't take action was because Lord Lin Xu wanted to see what the Apocalypse clan was up to.
In any case, now that she knew the situation, Liuli quickly opened the space jump channel and planned to return to the Skylark.
The Eternal God who had just been chatting happily with Liuli suddenly widened his eyes.
Opening a space jump channel is something that only a few great masters among the Eternal Gods can do. The vast majority of the Eternal Gods still rely on methods similar to curvature navigation to move around.
As far as he knew, hadn't Liuli just become an Eternal God Clan for less than 10,000 years? He hadn't even caught up with the war ten thousand years ago, so how could he become so strong now?
Liuli naturally would not tell him that she did it with the help of the nanorobots in her body.
Then Liuli disappeared from his sight.
At the same time, more and more Eternal Gods gathered on both sides, like in the Skylark walking on the red carpet. Lin Xu had just received a communication from a flashing and changing light next to a star, which looked like a ball of light or a heart composed of leaping light.
That is the Heart of Eternity, the theoretical core area of all Eternal gods, and the place where all Eternal gods decide on major issues together.
"Long time no see, human. Are you satisfied with my welcome ceremony?"
"Are you the one who has been encouraging various races to study humans?" Lin Xu pondered for a moment and asked back.
"Incitement? Do you think it is necessary to incite? Which civilization in this universe doesn't want to upgrade its dimension?" the other party asked back.
"But they could have used a gentler method, a method that would not be pursued by humans. This method, which is full of malice towards humans, was obviously provided by you." Lin Xu was not convinced by the other party.
"Yes, but this is what you humans deserve." The message conveyed from the Heart of Eternity was filled with a certain malice.
Just like those experiments that study human dimensionality.
"Deserve it?" Lin Xu asked.
"Of course, you don't know what your compatriots have done, but since you are human, you are essentially no different from them. You are all thieves, robbers, and liars. Humans are the termites of this universe. You should not exist in this world, do you understand? You should not exist." Although only information was transmitted, Lin Xu also felt the other party's gradually getting excited.
"What did humans do to you? Why do you get so angry?" Lin Xu asked back with a strange expression.
"What did humans do? Humans betrayed me, so everything you are suffering now is what humans deserve. It is what you humans deserve." That being said maliciously.
"Humans betrayed you? Can you tell me more specifically?" Lin Xu asked puzzledly.
"Okay, the time is up. Let me see what the difference is in higher-dimensional existence." This was the last message sent by the other party, and then he fell into silence.
The next moment, the eternal heart that was constantly flickering and jumping suddenly swelled up.
The expanding light spreads straight toward the entire galaxy.
In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire galaxy, not only the Skylark, but also countless Eternal Gods.
Then Lin Xu felt that the nanorobots around him seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and could not move.
"What is this? Have the rules of the universe changed?" Nanzhu asked in surprise.
"The other party has changed the cosmic rules of this galaxy. Now, within the scope of this galaxy, human rules are being rejected." Lin Xu said after feeling it calmly.
Faced with this situation where human rules are completely excluded, even the adaptive functions of the nanorobots cannot be used.
Adaptation can only be applied when the rules are inappropriate, not when the rules are completely unusable.
With a thud, there was a sound of something heavy falling to the ground. It was Liuli who had just opened the space jump channel and returned to the Skylark. After she passed through the space jump channel, the space jump channel was closed in the blink of an eye due to the change of the cosmic rules in this area, and she fell to the ground.
This bump was nothing to her, but she immediately felt that her ability to interfere with reality through her consciousness had been strengthened in a certain sense, and she could interfere with reality through her consciousness more easily.
At the same time, the nanorobots in his body that were originally used to block himself fell silent.
In other words, if she wanted to, she could now break free from the nanorobots and escape, or even counterattack if she wanted to.
Because she had discovered that everyone inside the Skylark seemed to be in a situation where they could not use nanorobots.
Although she didn't know whether this state was temporary or lasting, it was obviously a very good opportunity.
So what to do? Run? Fight back?
Various thoughts flashed through her mind, but Liuli did nothing in the end. The various things she had experienced along the way had already engraved the horror of human beings in her mind.
To put it bluntly, Liuli no longer dared to have any other thoughts.
Moreover, some little thoughts have been growing in my heart for a long time, and this kind of life seems to be not bad.
Although she didn't want to admit it, she seemed to really like the feeling of being tied up.
Well, should we say that Nanzhu’s focusing was successful, or something else?
In short, Liuli immediately reported the information she had just obtained to Lin Xu.
"The decision of the Eternal Heart is to surrender? And they also sent a message of surrender? But why did we receive a provocative message?" Nanzhu asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"It seems that it's not the entire Eternal God Clan that is controlled, but the Heart of Eternity that is secretly controlled. Everything is the result of the Apocalypse Clan controlling the Heart of Eternity." Lu Yao said suddenly.
"Then what is he trying to do by creating this universe where human rules are excluded? Is he trying to incite the Eternal Gods to kill us?" Nanzhu asked doubtfully.
"It seems that's the case. Haven't you noticed that your little maid's ability to interfere with reality with her consciousness has been strengthened? The rules of this universe are to suppress humans and strengthen the Eternal Gods." Mu Xiyue looked at Liuli and said.
"I saw that, but I didn't expect you to be so honest. You didn't take the opportunity to run away." Nanzhu looked at Liuli strangely.
Liuli's face flushed and she stood there obediently without saying a word.
"Come here." Nanzhu waved.
Liuli hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.
"You're very good. You must be obedient in the future." Nanzhu reached out and rubbed Liuli's head.
It was obvious that Nanzhu was unable to control the nanorobots now, and Liuli was out of control and her own strength had been enhanced, so she could completely resist. However, Liuli still obediently accepted Nanzhu's head-patting move and even felt a little comfortable.
It’s over, it’s over, Liuli, you are really finished.
Ignore what Liuli thinks.
Nanzhu was very happy.
At this time, outside the porthole of the Skylark, countless Eternal Gods also discovered the change in the situation.
The changes in the cosmic rules of this space cannot be hidden from these eternal gods.
First, they discovered that the ability of their own consciousness to interfere with reality had been strengthened, and then they discovered that the human spaceship was stationary.
It was further discovered that the nanorobots that had always been lingering around the spacecraft seemed to have fallen into hibernation and had completely lost their activity.
Suddenly, some of the Eternal Gods, who had long been dissatisfied with the easy surrender, became active in their minds.
Driven by the confidence brought by their own increased strength, some of the Eternal Gods finally couldn't bear the temptation and took the lead in attacking the Skylark.
Then the situation got out of control.
Even if you don't want to take action, you have no choice.
At the same time, facing the overwhelming attack of the Eternal Gods, Lin Xu was fearless.
"Rules that exclude humans? Meaningless, because I am the rules!"
