"A different world...as far as you know, have any places been changed?"
He had heard about this bomb called "Morning Star" more than once, but Wang Yu found that as his understanding of it deepened, the bomb's weight in Wang Yu's cognition was refreshed again and again.
"I don't know. No one knows what specific changes have occurred. Morning Star's influence has spread throughout the world. Some of the changes that can be observed have been recorded, but the changes that are difficult to observe are countless."
"The only things I can tell you are those changes that can be observed, such as the crack in the continent called Sighing Canyon, the elemental plane divided into four, and the explosion of the tide barrier in the Endless Sea. Open your mouth and wait..."
"But these are not the most important things. What Morning Star really reversed everything is that it completely changed some basic things in this world that we still cannot understand. This directly caused the abyssal creatures to no longer adapt to this world. "
"The explosion of Morning Star definitely did not completely kill the abyssal creatures under the abyss. There are still a lot of abyssal creatures surviving. The changes in things at the bottom of the world have become a chronic poison, weakening and deteriorating these abyssal creatures little by little. , until completely unable to have any impact on this world.”
"It can be regarded as the only weakness of abyssal creatures, whose ability to adapt and grow is so strong that we can't even imagine it. When it learns and absorbs enough things in this world and fills itself with the power of this world, the abyssal creatures will This ability to learn and adapt will gradually degrade until it disappears."
"On the premise that their power reaches a certain level but does not break through the boundaries, they will lose their power to resist changes in the underlying things in the world."
Malfurion introduced the real reason why Morning Star was able to kill abyssal creatures. The key point in this was probably the loophole or flaw in its ability to learn and evolve.
When it absorbs too much power from this world, its own foreign attributes will gradually disappear, and it will lose its ability to adapt as it becomes part of this world.
"I don't know what kind of abyssal creature you are facing, but if I were to take a guess, it should be an abyss mage or an abyss knight, right?"
Malfurion, who was immersed in the story about the abyssal creatures, raised his head and looked at Wang Yu, who was still listening attentively, but raised his right hand from under the table to the table, and asked about the other person's previous knowledge of the weakness of the abyssal creatures. Where did it come from.
"Well, that's right. It should be an abyss mage from Sky Mechanical City who was used as an experiment by the Central Council. The power it displayed seems to me to be just an ordinary extraordinary creature."
Wang Yu nodded and made an evaluation of the giant armored starfish-like abyss creature he encountered.
"Haha, that's right. What you are facing is an abyss creature that has been degraded for countless generations and lingers in this world. The only reason why it has not died out is that it has merged with the body of the creature in this world. This artificial way allows it to barely adapt to the world transformed by the Morning Star."
Malfurion chuckled twice, seemingly feeling ridiculous and speechless at the source of Wang Yu's misunderstanding, and then asked Wang Yu a question.
"Today, all of these abyssal creatures should have died out, except for a few that were preserved by Sky Mechanical City for experiments and survived. However, to be on the safe side, we still closed the relevant knowledge after the battle at the bottom of the abyss. Do you know why? ?”
"Hmm...Is it because of the power they learned about the gods? As long as someone remembers them, it is difficult to truly die."
Wang Yu thought for a moment and then responded. This is the same as the indescribable spread of those Void Evil Gods. If they know that there are such existences, they will not only be easily contaminated, but they can also become stronger because of it.
"That's it. It seems that your knowledge is not that lacking. The power of the abyss creatures that have not yet completely transformed is the amplification of the void."
"This seems to have never changed. In order to prevent hidden abyss creatures from relying on the void to survive, we can only choose to block their news and let the world's memory of them gradually fade away."
With the conversation with Malfurion, some of Wang Yu's doubts were gradually answered. Why is there so little information about abyssal creatures, why are abyssal creatures so weak, etc., and his understanding of this world is gradually improving in Xin. Complete with secret filling.
"Then, do you have any idea about the origin of these abyss creatures, that is, the starry sky above your head..."
Wang Yu thought for a while and chose to use the abyssal creatures as the entry point. When talking about this topic, the other party seemed to become particularly talkative. Perhaps understanding the starry sky can also obtain more information in this way.
"Starry sky? We really don't know much about that land. It is the hometown of void creatures. Some valuable and worthless things often fall down, such as stones or precious materials. However, the only living creatures are abyss creatures. "
"The dissociation layer has trapped us so hard that magic cannot survive in it. There is a gap in the void. The knight's body will gradually disintegrate after moving a certain distance. The alchemical materials are similar to biological bodies. After a certain time, The border was quickly destroyed."
"The existing means are simply not enough to support us in breaking through the separation layer. Maybe there will be a chance in the future, but it is impossible now."
Malfurion waved his hand. Regarding Wang Yu's question to Xingkong, it said that he had no way of answering it, and that was all they knew.
"Is there a possibility that the dissociation layer is the protective layer of our world? It blocks some things from the outside world and prevents them from invading this world, such as void creatures."
Wang Yu thought for a moment, put the effect of the atmosphere on the earth on the dissociation layer, and asked Malfurion if this possibility was possible.
"Protection? Haha, are you kidding? The bait is almost the same. The dissociation layer is harmless to void creatures. It is only aimed at us. There are more than one researchers who have died in the process of exploring the dissociation layer. That thing is volatile. , you don’t even know where its specific boundaries are.”
"After many researchers rose to a certain height, they suddenly found that their spells could not be used, the void energy was broken, the fighting spirit could not operate, the alchemy machinery under their feet began to disintegrate, and all life-saving methods were ineffective, and then they just followed below. The reason why it died during human observation is that the fluctuating dissociation layer did not know when it was enveloped."
"The bright stars are simply bait, tempting us to explore and then drown in the dissociation layer."
Malfurion's words were cold, and he had an emotion about the dissociation layer that was difficult to summarize simply.
"But as far as I know, there should be some professional astrologers, right? They seem to be able to pass through the dissociation layer and draw power from the stars to predict the future, read people's hearts, and use some special Ability."
Wang Yu paused again for a moment, and then asked about the astrologer he met in the royal city. The astrologer seemed to get power directly from the starry sky, and he could feel the gaze projected from the sky.
"Astrologers... it is true that these guys with unknown talents often describe hearing calls from the stars and seeing giant objects passing between the stars, but others cannot sense that they can see them. They can also use these invisible things to exert strange powers."
"We still don't know how they obtained this power. After all, the number of astrologers is extremely rare, and many of them are crazy. But you can try to think about something similar, such as the void."
Malfurion looked thoughtful, told what he knew, and then asked Wang Yu to think sideways.
"The Void... really, it gains power very randomly, strange madness, a large void? Not exactly, but the two themselves should be connected. The colors of many visible objects in the void are like those shown in the starry sky. That way."
Wang Yu had previously believed that there was a connection between the starry sky and the void, and now that Malfurion mentioned it, he was even more convinced.
"What is the connection between the starry sky and the void?"
Wang Yu asked directly.
"I'm not a question-and-answer machine. The chat you mentioned before was one-sided, with you asking and me answering?"
"Forget it, let's put it this way, we don't know much about the void. This thing should have existed for a long, long time. Somewhat ironically, the ones who have explored it the most are not us scholars, but the wizards. "
"The void conflicts too much with the knowledge we have. We realize the structure of matter under the framework of rules, but the void can directly skip the process and achieve similar effects with chaotic and disordered energy. This is what researchers have said Completely contrary to expectations.”
"The mentor's friend Roland may be the only one who connects the knowledge we have with the void... If it was him, he might really know something. Unfortunately, he disappeared suddenly at a certain point in time, and no one knows about him. Where did you go."
Malfurion expressed dissatisfaction with Wang Yu's constant questioning, but finally chose to answer, and at the same time stated directly that they did not know much about the void.
When the other party talked about the void, another name familiar to Wang Yu appeared in the words, Roland. The things that this "greatest wizard" mastered could not be simply summarized in terms of power and wealth.
"It's him again. What did this guy stuff into the material realm he created in the void..."
There was no change in his expression. Wang Yu thought silently in his heart. He had some connection with Roland because of the key. He was not interested in the "treasure" left by the other party, but if he had the opportunity, Wang Yu would try to learn more about this wizard. .
After helping Sieg to ask for a few words about dragons, Malfurion said that there was very little information about this race, and Wang Yu stopped talking and started flipping through the pages of the endless book he picked up. Transcribe useful content on your bookshelf.
Probably because he became a little familiar with him after chatting with him, Malfurion did not express any opinions on Wang Yu browsing his bookshelf until one day came and the notification from Astartes arrived, and Wang Yu stopped. He copied down a pen that recorded the contents of the eighth-level forbidden spell book, put away the endless pages and left the library.
The projection of the machine spirit Malfurion watched Wang Yu leave the aisle and return to the elevator. He turned around and sat back on the table, talking to the empty space where nothing existed.
"Well, this guy is quite strange, whether it's a soul or something else. Did you bring him here because you wanted me to help you take a look?"
After Malfurion finished asking, Astartes' voice echoed in the room, responding.
"Absolutely. His soul is very strange. I can't sense it at all. It is indeed this nature that allowed me to get rid of the shackles of the rules and be able to deal with the few disciples who were stuck in the central council position and refused to leave. After that, Sky Machinery The city can finally function normally."
Malfurion showed a somewhat joking smile and leaned his disembodied projection on the chair.
"So he is still your benefactor. It's not good to do this. He was put in such a mess by those disciples. Fortunately, you had a backup plan and let you use that guy named Wang Yu to solve the problem. , and now you want me to judge the other party’s situation? Are you ready to take action? "
Astartes paused for a moment before giving his response again.
"He and I haven't known each other for long, and we haven't reached the point where we can trust each other. We are just wary of each other. The means I can use cannot kill him before he activates the mark on his right hand."
"And his weird power can really destroy the entire Sky Mechanical City. If you really do it, the gains outweigh the losses, so I just want you to confirm."
Regarding Astartes' answer, Malfurion raised the corners of his mouth and dismissed it.
"You are tough. Although you are telling the truth, you are too humane. Let me tell you my judgment. There must be something wrong with him. He is not the one who chases the stars as soon as he comes up. Void creatures ask these questions. As a researcher, it makes no sense to be so curious about these things."
"Coupled with his soul that doesn't seem to exist at all, he is most likely not a normal human being. As for what he is specifically, I can't tell. To be honest, it is not among the things I have seen."
"However, your other judgment should be consistent with mine. The logic is clear and the communication is smooth. Regardless of whether it is true or not, at least it is not like it."
Astartes seemed to have expected Malfurion's judgment on Wang Yu and responded simply.
"Um."
Malfurion left the table and walked around in front of the bookshelf. His illusory fingers passed through the books, and his eyes and fingers finally stopped on a historical material, with an unexplainable smile in his eyes.
"Just continue to have contact with that person named Wang Yu as a machine soul, and try to judge what kind of existence he is. I don't know how much he can see, but as for the identity of the machine soul, the other party is definitely Unaware.”
"This is really the biggest lie you have told those who recognize your achievements in this continent. History is really too easy to dress up, and the same is true for the publications that record achievements. Machine birth of souls is not something we can accomplish now, no What?"
