Chapter 186 Setting a Trap!
Chapter 186 Setting a Trap!
He directly activated the domain of "Lord of the World" and jumped out of the aircraft.
The moment it entered the water, the surrounding seawater was forcibly pushed aside by an invisible force, forming a vacuum sphere with a diameter of ten meters.
Su Chen plummeted into the deep sea like a meteorite.
The seabed was utterly silent.
Su Chen saw the thing at the edge of a huge ocean trench.
It was a translucent sphere, about three meters in diameter, with its outer shell covered in cracks.
It was clearly severely damaged during landing. Inside the sphere sat a person, or rather, a creature that looked like a person.
Its eyes were closed, and it showed no signs of life, just like a wax figure.
Su Chen landed next to the sphere, his brows furrowed.
He didn't sense any soul fluctuations from this creature.
"A mindless doll?"
Su Chen remembered Ye Chen's comment.
Just then, the "wax figure" suddenly opened its eyes.
Those were a pair of emotionless gray eyes, staring intently at Su Chen.
It neither attacked nor fled; it simply sat there.
Su Chen tried to communicate using his mental power, but found that his consciousness seemed to have hit a thick stone wall.
The other person's mind was completely blank; there was absolutely nothing in it.
"I see, so it's a remote control terminal?"
Su Chen muttered to himself.
He reached out, ready to smash the thing to pieces.
[Su Chen, don't do it!]
Suddenly, a line of large, blood-red characters popped up in the comments: Ye Chen.
That's the Prophet's "Eye of Truth"! If you kill it, the Prophet can instantly lock onto all your ability parameters and the Earth's laws and structure through its death feedback! It deliberately wanted you to kill it!
Su Chen's hand froze in mid-air.
Touch porcelain?
This prophet's tactics are quite sophisticated.
【So what should we do? Just leave it here?】
Su Chen replied in his mind. Although he knew Ye Chen couldn't see, he knew that these reborn people were definitely watching.
Lock it up and seal it with the law of absolute zero! It cannot die, nor can it come into contact with any signals from the outside world.
It's like a webcam that's not yet connected to the internet; as long as it's not connected to the 'Prophet's' mainframe, it's just scrap metal.
Su Chen withdrew his hand, a playful smile appearing on his lips.
"Trying to spy on me? Fine, then I'll show you something interesting."
Instead of sealing it away, Su Chen made an even bolder decision.
He used the power of the world to create an extremely complex "information camouflage network" around the doll.
From now on, everything this doll perceives will be an illusion created by Su Chen.
It will see the Earth fighting amongst itself, see humanity struggling in despair, and see that Su Chen is just an ordinary awakened being who is a bit luckier.
"This 'information cocoon,' you'll have enough to keep playing in for a while, right?"
After dealing with the doll, Su Chen returned to the surface, but his mood did not improve.
Ye Chen said there were at least three puppets, but only one has been discovered so far.
Lin Xue sent a message saying that Yi Yi had just vomited blood again, and the frequency of her energy bursts was getting faster and faster.
Su Chen stood on the beach, looking at the surging sea, his eyes gleaming.
He came up with a plan that would kill two birds with one stone.
When Su Chen said he wanted to take Liu Yiyi to the Earth's core, it seemed to Elder Long and Lin Xue that he was simply insane.
"Advisor, do you know how much pressure there is underground?"
"Yiyi's current physical condition makes it difficult for her to even leave the recovery pod. You're taking her 3,000 kilometers?"
Lin Xue's eyes reddened with anxiety, and she blocked the door to the ward, preventing Su Chen from entering.
Old Long sighed and advised, "Xiao Su, I know you want to save people, but we have to be scientific."
"Even the most advanced drilling machines can't withstand the conditions at the Earth's core for more than a few minutes. How can Yiyi, a girl, possibly endure that?"
Su Chen looked at them, his tone calm, yet carrying an undeniable air of authority:
"Conventional methods can no longer save her. That thing in the Earth's core is the only source of primordial laws on Earth."
"Only it can stitch the soul back together."
"What if we fail?" Lin Xue asked, her voice trembling.
"There's no 'what if'," Su Chen said, staring into her eyes. "My confidence remains the same as always."
Lin Xue was stunned. She saw a kind of determination she had never seen before in Su Chen's eyes.
She slowly stepped aside. Su Chen entered the ward and looked at the thin figure in the recovery pod.
"Let's go somewhere fun."
He used the power of the world to envelop the entire repair pod in a thick spatial barrier, and then directly initiated the teleportation.
The next second, the two of them appeared in the crystalline world deep within the Earth's core.
Upon returning to this place, Su Chen could clearly sense that the fluctuations were more active than last time.
The light emanating from those law-based mineral veins seemed to be cheering, or perhaps yearning.
Su Chen placed the repair chamber in the very center of the crystal forest, then took a deep breath and removed the protective shield.
hum-
Terrifying pressure and high temperature struck instantly, but were mitigated by the power of Su Chen's world.
These energies were transformed into gentle, fine threads of law, which slowly seeped into Liu Yiyi's body.
"what!"
Liu Yiyi let out a painful groan, and her body began to tremble violently.
Countless tiny gold and black runes appeared on the skin's surface. These two forces were launching a final, frantic counterattack.
Su Chen didn't dare to delay and immediately sat down cross-legged.
He sank his consciousness into the ground, trying to reconnect with the voice of that pioneer.
"I brought her here, to save her!"
Su Chen shouted in his mind.
"Successor, are you sure?"
That desolate voice rang out again: "To repair her soul with the power of the World Seed means that her fate will be completely bound to this planet."
"She will become the 'spirit' of the world's seed, and you must become the 'guardian of the seed'."
"Stop talking nonsense! Save them!" Su Chen said coldly.
"As you wish."
In an instant, the entire crystal forest burst forth with a blinding white light.
All the veins of the law began to spin wildly, forming a huge vortex.
Su Chen saw countless golden rays of light surging towards Liu Yiyi from all directions, as if weaving a gorgeous garment, gradually enveloping her body.
Liu Yiyi's expression gradually calmed down. The violent power was suppressed by the flowing light and began to rearrange itself along her meridians.
Just then, Su Chen noticed that the comments section was in complete chaos.
"Holy crap! What is Su Chen doing? He's actually forcibly fusing with the Seed of the World!"
"He's insane! Is this guy really going to gamble the future of the entire planet for a woman?"
"Look! The prophet's puppet is moving! It's heading towards the Earth's core!"
Su Chen's lips curled up slightly.
really!
Plan successful, here we come!
His perception instantly covered the entire earth's crust.
Sure enough, less than fifty kilometers away from him, a strange energy entity was penetrating the rock strata at an astonishing speed, heading straight for him.
It's a doll!
It had been hiding underground all along, waiting for the moment when Su Chen would activate the Seed of the World.
Looking to snag a bargain?
A cold smile appeared on Su Chen's lips.
He did not get up to stop him.
"Shen Mo, can you hear me?" Su Chen shouted through the communicator.
"I'm here! Consultant Su, what's wrong?" Shen Mo's voice sounded a bit noisy.
"Bring that repaired frigate over here, aim at the coordinates I gave you, and unleash full firepower! No matter how thick the earth's crust is, blast it to pieces!"
"Huh? That's underwater in international waters! What if it triggers an earthquake..."
"Execute the command!"
Su Chen stared at the approaching red dot, gathering a ball of pure world power in his hand.
He sneered, "If you can survive the bombardment by the warships, I'll personally send you on your way."
