Volume 8: Glass Chapter 717: Beyond the Starry Sky
The real world, the Azure Federation.
Polaris wakes up from the sleeping cabin.
The device detected that his sleep was interrupted and automatically disconnected the data link behind his ear. The data cable fell off the data interface like a living snake and retracted.
With a puffing sound, the cabin door slowly opened. A shirtless, muscular young man wiped the nutrient solution off his face, stood up from the sleeping cabin and walked out.
There is a deep sorrow hidden between the brows of the North Star, which is difficult to dispel.
He absentmindedly wiped his body with a towel, put on his uniform, and immediately glanced at the hundreds of sleeping cabins neatly arranged in the cabin.
The core members of the Supernormal Department are still lying inside, connected to the "Mysterious Age" game world, and their consciousness is controlling the characters to move around on the Yanita continent.
This is actually what Polaris requires.
For some reason, his spiritual intuition told him that the teacher might need the help of these "immortal strangers"...
Although uncertain, Polaris chose to trust his instincts.
He sighed silently, and without waking up the rest of the Polaris team, he walked out of the cabin door alone.
When they arrived at the first floor lobby of the Supernormal Technology Building, they saw staff members walking in a hurry, with worry and uneasiness on everyone's face. Even after seeing him, the minister, only a few of them forced a smile and greeted him.
Polaris suppressed his inner depression, smiled and nodded in response.
He could actually understand these people's feelings.
Because the entire real world has undergone very terrible changes since last week, and everyone in the Federation has fallen into panic...
Polaris walked out of the door and looked up—
I saw the clouds moving rapidly above the city with tall buildings, as if an invisible giant hand was brushing past... The sun was crossing the sky at a speed visible to the naked eye, rising in the east and setting in the west. In less than a minute, the sunlight went from shining to dim, and then it entered the night!
The face of the North Star was a mixture of light and shadow until it was covered by darkness.
I couldn't see his expression clearly.
Likewise, the night lasted only a minute before the rising sun could be seen from the east, and the cycle repeated itself.
This phenomenon started to occur last Monday.
The alternation of day and night is getting faster and faster!
From the original 24 hours, it became 12 hours, then 6 hours, 3 hours, 1 hour, half an hour...
Until today, a minute is a day!
This incident is too abnormal and too weird, it has overturned people's three views!
Scientists at the Federal Research Center initially believed that this was because the Azure Planet's rotation speed had increased, but later discovered through various investigations and tests that this was not the case... because if the rotation speed increased, the centrifugal force would definitely increase, causing gravity to decrease.
But the result is that the gravity in various regions of the Azure Star has not changed...even other aspects such as climate, crust, ocean currents and water levels are no different from before.
Only the magnetic field changed slightly, causing communication interruption.
Originally, federal scientists planned to observe the Azure Star through satellites and space stations to see what was going on.
However, the worst thing happened.
Thousands of satellites launched by the Azure Federation were all paralyzed due to unknown reasons and completely became space garbage... Even the space station was disconnected from the ground.
At this point, the entire federation seemed to be in a state of "isolation from the world", and the atmosphere of fear and anxiety spread and boiled.
Looking at the changing light and darkness in the sky, no one knows what terrible thing will happen next.
The Azure Saint Church and even the extraordinary leaders like Polaris all thought of the same thing...
The prophecy may have come true.
The azure planet is about to face its end!
Holy Church Pope Su Hong held an extremely secret meeting yesterday morning. Polaris still remembers the uneasy and solemn expressions on the faces of senior federal officials and Holy Church members.
The Pope said only one sentence before the meeting ended:
"The Supreme Being outside the solar system is waiting silently, and is about to start enjoying His dinner... The Federation and the Holy Church have no means to escape this disaster, so just leave it to fate."
These dejected and desperate words from the strongest person on the Azure Planet are tantamount to declaring the ultimate fate of mankind.
There is no way to resist and no way to escape .
In the eyes of Pope Su Hong and even the top leaders of the Holy Church, even the eternal being "King of Blue Clothes" who once descended would probably not be able to stop all this.
On the azure star, all you can do is wait for death.
But Polaris doesn't think so.
"Teacher... you have become a god in the Yanita continent. Both worlds are now facing the same fate. As your loyal student and devout believer, Su Bei, I hope you can break this fate and bring us salvation."
He raised his head, looked at the strangely changing sky, and slowly closed his eyes.
Pray silently.
He shared the same hope with the gods of the fairyland in Anita's world, and Floy, who stared at the sky and waited silently...
Perhaps most people don’t know.
There is a person who is heading out of the starry sky alone, facing many terrifying existences, trying the slim hope of salvation...
…
…
…
Chen Lun continued to rise higher and flew towards the sky.
After the island-circling ceremony arranged by Duke Huan in his early years was destroyed, there was no longer any obstacle between the starry sky and the earth... As he looked down, the continent of the Beretania world became smaller and smaller in his sight, and the whole process was very smooth.
But when he completely left the atmosphere and reached the starry sky, he suddenly felt an extremely strong palpitation -
Boom! Boom! Boom!
My heart was beating so hard it pounded violently in my chest.
At this moment, the pale infinity symbol flashed frequently in his eyes.
He saw the future...
See what's possible next.
Thousands of possibilities, all pointing to one's own death.
Black is the color of the end.
Death is the only destination.
It's pitch dark and there's no hope at all.
It seemed as if fate had destined me to fall into an irreversible abyss.
"Don't try to influence me or hinder me..."
Chen Lun's eyes were dull and emotionless.
He silently put aside all negative emotions, and his rock-solid determination drove him forward, and continued to move forward.
Looking up at the boundless starry sky——
Everything here is dead silent.
Everything here is dark and gloomy.
Even at the far end of the sight, there were only faint starlight, as if it were the eyes of a dying person struggling to survive.
'Where are those terrifying beings that are beyond the sequence and wandering outside the starry sky? Why can't I see anything...'
Chen Lun frowned slightly.
As he flew deeper into the starry sky, he searched for traces of the Old Ones and Outer Gods.
However, everything seemed like his imagination.
There is no life outside the starry sky. He is the only one, like a ghost wandering in a lonely world, looking for an unrealistic goal.
In this way, time passed by minute by minute.
The giant glazed snake is so huge that its entire appearance cannot be seen at all. However, in this boundless universe, it is like a grain of sand, tiny, helpless, and insignificant.
Chen Lun's journey of searching passed day by day.
He never gained anything.
He didn't even see the shadow of the enemy, but his body was becoming increasingly out of control. The glittering glass body gradually began to crack, and the terrifying power of the holy fire dissipated and burned.
At the same time, Chen Lun's rationality, which was unable to make ends meet, was also burning.
The look in his snake pupils became more and more anxious, more erratic, and more and more crazy...
In fact, Chen Lun himself knew that if he continued like this, he would lose control before he could find the Old Ones and the Outer Gods, and would be lost forever in the starry sky.
But he had no choice.
Or rather, there is no better way.
The divination of fate cannot reveal the existence above the sequence, so he can only rely on this most primitive method to search.
Completely different from what was initially expected, the Old Ones and the Outer Gods were not floating outside the world of Beretania, but were hiding, or he could not see them.
Chen Lun even strongly suspected that his previous understanding of the Old Ones and the Outer Gods was wrong from the beginning...
Maybe they don't exist at all?
'No... no, they are real, the source of all supernatural things, and also the source of all disasters. Only by driving them away can everything I care about survive.'
Chen Lun gritted his teeth and persisted, forcing his eyes to regain clarity.
"I can't lose control. I can't lose control here. If I go crazy, there will be no possibility of redemption for everything..."
He couldn't accept that he would give up halfway before even trying.
The pale flame left a tiny trace in the dead darkness, like a snail crawling on a black curtain.
In this endless loneliness, time seems to have lost its meaning.
Chen Lun didn't know how long he had been searching.
One month, a few months, or a few years or more than ten years...
He himself had forgotten.
The loss of sanity has almost brought his thinking to a standstill, and all his memories have begun to become blurry and confused.
There was even a moment when he forgot where he was and what he was going to do!
When he came to his senses, Chen Lun's heart was filled with endless fear and despair!
The confidence in the supreme existence of the two gods collapsed at this moment!
He finally stopped.
Looking back, the world of Beretania had long disappeared, and he had no idea where he was.
He was actually lost in the universe and couldn't even find the way back.
All around, there was only endless darkness and loneliness.
He is truly the only one left in this world.
At this moment, Chen Lun finally understood what it meant to be a supreme being above the transcendental sequence , and what it meant to be truly powerful... In this endless starry universe, human nature is truly meaningless except for driving people crazy!
The scales all over his body had shattered and scattered along the way.
His eyes were dim, and the pale and bright infinity symbol had lost its luster in the aimless search.
Suddenly.
A pair of beautiful purple eyes flashed through Chen Lun’s mind.
Just look at him so calmly and gently.
"Floy..."
Chen Lun's mind seemed to have recovered a little power from the state of "rusty gears", making him remember a key trump card that he had been "ignoring".
“No return home!”
He immediately activated his authority.
A huge, square, white carved throne instantly appeared behind him.
Chen Lun's giant snake body bent and coiled into an infinity symbol, slowly landing on the throne.
boom--
Everything within sight turned completely into white light.
Chen Lun only felt his mind tremble.
He opened his eyes suddenly.
The starry sky before my eyes remains the same.
But when I turned around, I saw the continent of Beretania gradually shrinking under my feet...
Chen Lun was shocked.
I actually returned to the moment when I just stepped out of the starry sky!
"No, that's not right... I should have been here."
Lift your eyes and look carefully -
At the end of the distant starry sky, there is a brilliant blue and yellow nebula!
One after another, the squirming "soap bubbles" reflected the gorgeous and smooth flowing colors, forming an incomprehensible cosmic wonder.
'The eternal nightmare of the "Old Days"!'
Chen Lun realized that everything he had experienced before, the dead silence and despair, the wandering and searching... were all hallucinations, nightmares and illusions!
It was the moment he stepped out of the starry sky that he was affected by the eternal nightmare and almost fell into it, losing his sanity and control.
"This is terrible..."
Chen Lun's pupils trembled violently and he was still frightened.
In just a few tenths of a second, he was almost killed instantly by this old man...
