She saw a black tide – a black tide that covered the entire sky. The entire sky was covered by a black cloud, sweeping towards the Sky Eye Facility No. 0.

She saw the [Extraditor] Maha stand up in front of Facility Zero, and with his hands behind his back he placed the [Creator Engine] on the back of his neck.

She saw the needle-like red stone pierce out and penetrate deeply into the body of the Extraditor, but there was no expression on his face made of metal skin.

She saw cracks appearing on Maha’s body, and the dark gravitational tentacles tore apart many parts of his body, eventually destroying his upper left hand and turning it into a gravitational tentacle.

The tentacles did not stop extending, but instead split into countless thin lines like flowing water, spreading towards the soldiers around the [Extrader]:

“Protect the [Inverted Sword],” Maha’s majestic electronic voice began to break, “The Great Wall will remember you.”

“…!”

Perlis suddenly came to her senses, and almost at the same time, the [Creator Engine] broke out from Maha’s back and fell to the ground.

At the same time, another earthquake struck – just on the stone wall behind Maha, a wall shattered under the pressure of strong gravity, exploding with countless dust.

Everyone looked over there, and after the dust cleared, they could see clearly what was behind the stone wall—

“Oh my god…” Lian covered her mouth.

“That’s…” Aoi shuddered subconsciously.

Only Perlis did not react. Her eyes penetrated the smoke and dust, silently looking at the existence that she had seen in Maha’s memories –

——【Sky Eye】Facility Zero.

A long time ago, Perlis and Carly had guessed what the base looked like. Logically, they should have obtained relevant information from the Qilang officials in advance, but due to the high level of confidentiality at the time, and the huge amount of information loss caused by the fall of Hafurgaard, even the Qilang people could not give the characteristics and details of the [Sky Eye] Facility No. 0.

And now, when Perlis saw the facility with her own eyes, she had only one word to sum up her first impression –

——That is an altar.

Complex pipelines and mechanical bodies are stacked up like a pyramid, layer by layer. The rough mechanical stacking unexpectedly creates a primitive and mysterious beauty.

Around the “altar”, dozens of antennas were facing the sky blocked by the stone roof. Half of them had fallen down, while the tops of the other half were flashing faint blue light, maintaining minimal contact with something in low-Earth orbit.

The most horrifying thing is the countless twisted black human bodies stacked on the steps of the “altar”.

They held hands, stood shoulder to shoulder, their bodies connected by countless black threads. Among those people, Perlis recognized the Qilang military uniforms, recognized the federal army, and even saw many people who were not wearing military uniforms.

Regardless of their identities or positions, at that moment, they all stood together.

Their skin had been turned into a hard black substance by the [Creator Engine], and the expressions on their faces were difficult to recognize, but Perlis felt that she could imagine what expressions those soldiers had as they built the wall with their bodies.

What courage, awareness, and confidence that requires.

“…”

Looking at the wall made up of black human bodies, no one spoke.

After a long time, a loud voice came from behind Perlis:

“salute!”

Perlis turned around and saw that it was Burriged. He stood straight and saluted the guards of Facility Zero with a standard military salute.

Others followed suit, including many who were not in uniform, but the expressions on everyone’s faces were similar.

“……”

In the silent crowd, Perlis waved her hand, and the [Creator Engine] flew into her hand.

This strange engine seemed to have some strange properties. When it fell into Perlis’s hand, the engine, which was originally at least as big as a ball, suddenly became several sizes smaller and could be held in Perlis’s palm. The red stone-like needle had also been retracted into the ball, and it had returned to its harmless appearance.

As early as in historical memory, Perlis had seen how the Hafgard in their settlement used the [Creator Engine] to build houses: the Hafgards wore exoskeletons on their arms, used azure light to draw the structure and outline of the house, and then assembled them together.

At that time, she naturally thought that the [Creator Engine] was the same as Lian’s [Factor Construction], which was some kind of high-level application of the destructive factor, and was essentially part of the factor energy technology tree of the Hafrigard clan.

However, she had seen it all just now—what emerged from the redstone were pitch-black, indescribable objects.

The structure of the [Creator Engine] obviously utilizes a power similar to that of [Engraving Ink].

Yes…after all, that is the power of creation…

Isn’t [Creation] the authority possessed by [Engraving Ink]?

This power obviously comes from the high heaven.

“…”

As she thought about it, Perlis recalled the legends that Grandpa Hassanka had told her about the [Angel of Destruction] Immotalos. She also thought of the door leading to the [Eternal Wall] and the images of red and black intertwined.

[Creation] and [Destruction] are always compatible in confrontation, achieving a certain strange state of stability.

And the source of all this must be the [High Heaven].

If the Creator Engine utilizes authority similar to that of Engraving Ink, does that mean that Engraving Ink itself was leaked from the High Heavens?

The King in the Ivory Tower couldn’t possibly be unaware of all this, could he?

But it all still happened.

Vaguely, Perlis had a strange premonition in her heart.

Perhaps, from the source to the present, all of this is inseparable from the Hafurgaard tribe.

“…”

Perlis had a premonition that all the clues before her would lead her to the holy city of the Hafrigad tribe.

The brilliant city perched on the Star Gate, whose logo is the abode of the gods “Abstract Flower” and “Ink Bottle”.

【High Heaven】.

She came from the sea of ​​flowers under the Ivory Tower, and perhaps, she needs to return there eventually.

But I don’t want to leave…

Perlis glanced at Carly beside her, then glanced at Aoi and Lian beside her, and then looked towards the direction of the Admir continent.

In fact, she didn’t think of herself as a member of the Hafrigad tribe, let alone a “descendant of the sea of ​​flowers.”

She is Perlis, and only Perlis.

“Little White Flower, it’s time to go check out that facility.”

Carly patted Pearlis’ shoulder gently, as if she saw through her thoughts and chose to pull her back to reality.

“Ah.”

Perlis nodded slightly, and after seeking Buriged’s consent, she and Carly, Aoi, and Lian walked towards the altar-like facility.

They walked all the way to the top of the “altar”: it was a relatively flat area, without any extra instruments and facilities, and without any dark figures standing on it.

This is just a flat piece of land.

“Strange, why is everything…”

Just as Aoi uttered half a sentence, a faint roar came from the ground.

They lowered their heads and suddenly found that the entire ground was slowly becoming transparent due to some kind of resonance, as if they were standing on a lake.

At the same time, the [Creator Engine] in Perlis’s hand also began to tremble slightly. Perlis lifted up the spherical core, and the transparent ground vibrated more and more frequently. The transparent material with a glass texture actually rippled slightly like water.

“Buzzing…”

Slowly, a small glass platform rose from the ground in the center of the altar. There was an obvious circular groove on it, which seemed to be a perfect match for the [Creator Engine].

“This looks like some kind of highly intelligent building material,” Carly muttered, “Oh my God…it can even recognize the current size of the [Creator Engine] and construct a corresponding docking station?”

“This is God’s technology…” Lian gave a very high evaluation in a daze. In her eyes, this is simply the most ideal effect that [Factor Construction] can achieve.

Before, the [Creator Engine] was as big as a ball when it was on the [Extrader], but in Perlis’s hand it became about the size of an orange.

Apparently, this glass-like material also has intelligence similar to its own.

This is undoubtedly the technology of the Hafurgard people.

14) Touch of the Creator (Part 6)

“…”

Under everyone’s gaze, Perlis seemed to know what to do next.

She slowly walked to the center of the altar and placed the [Creator Engine] in her hand into the groove on the small platform.

“Buzzing—”

A transparent wave spread out, causing everyone to tremble slightly, as if something huge was rising from the bottom.

At this time, the transparent glass lake under Perlis’s feet changed again – the transparent material took the edge of the altar as the base, and slowly rose up one wall after another of varying heights, surrounding every direction of the top of the platform.

These transparent walls continue to climb upwards, and after reaching a certain height, they slowly gather towards the center point to form a transparent square dome.

Then, a beam of azure light shot up from the [Creator Engine], hitting the center of the square ceiling, and then dispersed into dots of light that flowed around, carving on the square transparent dome.

After just a few dozen seconds, a huge triangular outline appeared on the dome.

That outline is very similar to the portal opened by the Extraditioner.

Could it be that… ?

A guess appeared in Perlis’s mind, and as if to prove her guess, the [Creator Engine] once again burst into blue light.

But this time, the azure light did not shoot into the sky, but was injected into the ground, flowing along the edge of the stepped altar, and then converging on the antennas around the facility.

A dazzling blue light suddenly appeared on the tops of the antennas that had not been destroyed, while those destroyed antennas were slowly repaired under the blue light one after another, replacing the missing structures with transparent materials.

When all the antennas were repaired, they began to flash in similar frequency bands, as if they were synchronizing with something. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the result of the synchronization.

Then, in the midst of a burst of factor energy microwaves, everyone breathed a sigh of relief—

——Synchronization was successful.

The [Sky Eye] Facility 0 was successfully synchronized with the [Inverted Sword] low-Earth orbit satellite.

For a moment, everyone in the Qilang army breathed a sigh of relief. Burigede looked at the [Extrader] behind him with a gratified look and murmured:

“My friend, you held on.”

“…”

At this time, Perlis and her companions in the crystal palace on top of the altar raised their heads at the same time and looked at the triangle carved on the dome.

As the antenna locked onto the [Inverted Sword] in low-Earth orbit, the next step was to head towards the satellite.

Perlis had speculated on numerous ways to reach low-Earth orbit: space elevator? spaceship? Or direct transmission through higher-dimensional space?

When she saw the portal opened by the Extraditioner using the Creator Engine, she knew the truth.

“boom!”

Another azure light rose from the center of the altar and hit the triangular door-shaped groove above the dome. The flowing blue light immediately filled the complex structure inside the triangle.

Then, a deep blue star gate appeared just above the dome, emitting an ethereal sound that sounded as if it was far away in low-Earth orbit.

“…Immotalus…Immotalus…Immotalus…Immotalus…”

When the whisper came, Perlis covered her ears and frowned slightly.

The closer you get to the starry sky, the more serious the pollution will be. She already knew this…

[Inverted Sword] is located in low-Earth orbit, so there must be very strong pollution… Although this planet has been wrapped in the [Grave], the pollution still destroyed the Federation’s previous [Starry Sky Ladder Project].

After thinking about this, Perlis blurted out:

“I’ll go alone.”

“No,” Carly shook her head, “It’s unlikely that Little White Flower knows how to operate a low-Earth orbit satellite, right?”

“Carly doesn’t know either,” Perlis puffed up her cheeks, “This is Hafgard technology, maybe I know more about it than you.”

“In fact, I know a little bit,” Carly sighed, “Although the data of the [Sky Eye] Facility 0 has been erased, this facility is only responsible for sending satellites made by the Qilang people into space, and is not too involved in the construction of the satellites themselves.”

“you mean…?”

“That satellite is the technology of the Qilang people and has nothing to do with Hafurgard,” Carly tapped Perlis’s forehead gently. “Through the Sea of ​​Poetry, I have collected some basic information about Qilang technology. I also obtained some design information of the satellite from the military in Wulan before. So, I am confident that I can operate the satellite.”

After Carly said this, Polys was speechless. She thought about it and found that she could not find an excuse.

“It will be very dangerous up there,” Perlis whispered, “There should be someone in Qi Lang’s army who can control it…”

“Why do you always want to protect me?” Carly stretched out a hand and pinched Perlis’s cheek. “Tell me, are you beginning to dislike me being a burden to you?”

“How could that be?” Perlis let Carly pinch her face. “I just…”
