It's like a balloon that's been punctured.
If stress concentration occurs, the internal airflow will be released instantly through the hole, causing the entire surface to vibrate violently and burst open. For the pocket universe, this tiny hole cannot shake the pressure of the entire universe, but the shadows that keep pouring in from the outside are devouring everything around them at an extraordinary speed.
At the center of the pocket universe.
In the vast sea of stars, a colossal, eerie structure, resembling a floating castle, silently hovers in the darkness.
Beyond the castle lies an endless expanse of space, beneath which burns a terrifying fireball, spewing out prominences with incredible ferocity—a nascent star, a sun created by the gods.
If you look closely, you'll find that the sun is enveloped in a transparent veil, like a creature raised in a greenhouse, in a state of extreme control from the moment of its birth.
Inside the castle, various intelligent machines were busy with their own tasks, everything was orderly and quiet, as if they were not affected at all. But on another floor of the castle, the atmosphere was unusually lively.
A man in a white robe stared dumbfounded at the screen in front of him, as if it contained some great horror.
Before he could even react, an elderly man in the center of the crowd couldn't help but speak up. "Report what happened! What's going on?"
The old man was also dressed in a white robe, just like the other man, but strangely, his head had been completely transformed into metal, and on top of his metal head was a brain that was soaking in nutrient solution.
"High Priest, this is L-3 area. The entrance to L-3 area has sent us an intrusion alert!"
"L-3?"
The elderly man, known as the High Priest, rose slightly from his seat, his body emitting a series of harsh metallic scraping sounds, but everyone around him paid no attention to it.
"Intrusion?"
After a moment's thought, the High Priest immediately recalled that area. It was a wild wasteland, the capital of a country from the old era, and also one of the entrances to the Pocket Universe.
"How could this be? Who dares to invade the realm of the God of Death?!"
The woman who had answered earlier spoke again. "I didn't see any intruders in the information uploaded from L-3, but the omnics did sense some kind of abnormal energy, and the value far exceeded our expectations..."
etc...!?"
"What happened?"
"Wow, the entrance to the Pocket Universe has been opened!" The woman suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with disbelief. "The system detected a terrifying force that blasted a hole in the Pocket Universe. The portal's warning system, fearing a collision between the two universes, opened the gate and let that thing in!"
'
"What did you say? How is this possible?!"
The woman's exclamation caused a huge commotion among the white-robed men around her. Everyone quickly focused on the large screen in the center, watching the report intently.
"Those wastelanders couldn't possibly possess such technology, let alone wield such power. Could it be that they've communicated with other civilizations to launch an attack on us?"
This guess was immediately rejected by someone else.
"Impossible. God King Ji has already purified all the civilizations around Blue Star and sealed off the spatial dimensions near Blue Star. Those civilizations could not have teleported here directly, and our satellites have not detected any extraterrestrial intrusions."
"Can you see what the intruder looks like?"
"Didn't I say before that we can't see anything? We still can't determine whether the other party has some kind of hiding ability."
"The L-3 region has a dimensional rejection program, and no living being can hide below the dimension and infiltrate it. The other party must have used some method to affect the judgment of the detection instrument."
"First, we need to figure out the intruder's identity. They've already entered the Pocket Universe; it's impossible for them to leave no trace." Looking at the noisy hall, the Archbishop's mechanical eyes shifted slightly. He couldn't be sure if the intruder was planning to launch an attack while the God King Ji was on an expedition.
"Yes."
The man who started responded, and then he and another older man quickly walked to a huge, white cylindrical device.
The High Priest's tone was somewhat cold. "If I remember correctly, the portal in area L-3 connects to Satellite Three, right?"
"It's satellite number three, but we didn't detect any unusual material at the satellite's transmission point. That thing must have flowed away to other places in some way we don't know the moment the dimensional rift tore open."
"This is the Pocket Universe, a new world personally created by the God King Ji. How could something we don't know about appear here!?"
"I was also shocked, but all the values were normal. Apart from some light particles causing abnormal fluctuations, the detection instruments did not detect anything unusual."
"Abnormal fluctuations in light particles?" The High Priest suddenly realized something and turned his head sharply. "Could it be that the other party has already exceeded the speed of light?"
"It's been checked. The instruments didn't detect any signs of life or any external force residue in the light particles." The woman shook her head repeatedly.
The woman's words silenced the entire hall for a moment.
"Faster than light, yet leaving no trace in the light particles, what the hell is this thing..." The High Priest clenched his fist slightly, an extremely ominous feeling lingering in his heart.
"Can we retrieve the fluctuation values of the light particles that affect the other party and use this effect to find the other party's movement trajectory?" someone asked.
"Sure, but... that effect is a bit strange. It spreads in all directions, and I'm afraid we won't be able to find it for a while... Wait, that thing moved!"
The woman frowned, her eyes fixed on the screen in front of her.
"Something is hurtling towards us at an incredibly fast speed, and it's continuously spreading and propelling those fluctuations that affect light particles; it looks like an unusual gravitational force!"
Before she finished speaking, most of the white-robed men in the hall gathered around the woman, watching the ripples on the screen with varying expressions.
The High Priest watched this scene coldly, his metallic face expressionless.
After a moment of contemplation, he spoke softly, "Immediately notify the intelligent machines to stop that thing from approaching the Holy Royal City at all costs."
"yes!"
Following the High Priest's words, the surrounding crowd sprang into action, while outside the hall, the androids moved noticeably faster.
Not only did they notice the intrusion alarm and the abnormal numerical fluctuations, but the omnics outside the hall also noticed the strange intruder.
"The omnics have already set off, and the surrounding fleets are also approaching their direction of travel, preparing to attempt an interception."
"First Action Team has reached its designated position! Engagement is imminent!"
"The Fourth Fleet has integrated with the First Operations Squadron... Wait! Data anomaly! The light, the fluctuation of light particles is disappearing!"
"What did you say?!"
"Quickly, bring over the video footage!"
"Signal! The signal is lost! Something is interfering with our signal, just like the signal interference in the L-3 area before. That thing has cut off our communications!"
"Can we continue monitoring the other party's movement?"
"There's nothing we can do! That thing is too fast, and it shows no sign of stopping. The omnics and the Holy Fleet couldn't even stop it for a second!"
"This, this is impossible..."
Gazing at the chaotic crowd in the hall, the Archbishop, his eyes dark, inserted his hand into a silver-white device. Soon, a faint blue glow appeared on the metal casing.
"High Priest, what brings you here?"
"I will report the information here to the God of Life."
The High Priest didn't even glance at the man, and spoke coldly.
"That thing is heading towards the Holy Royal City, and it's beyond our comprehension. Facing such an unknown entity with unpredictable actions, we could all perish upon first encounter if we're not careful. We must let the God of Life make the decision himself..."
As they were talking, the High Priest gradually stopped speaking.
A look of confusion appeared on the head, which had been completely replaced by metal.
The next moment, the glow lamps in the hall suddenly began to flicker slightly, and the bright hall became much more gloomy as it lit up and dimmed.
Almost all the people in white robes stopped what they were doing. They stood there in a panic, their eyes filled with unimaginable fear as they looked around at the scene.
"What, what's going on?"
Finally, someone couldn't help but ask a question.
But at that moment, no one could give him an answer.
The High Priest's metallic gaze shifted as he looked at the seemingly normal values on the screen. He felt that the knowledge bestowed upon him by the God-King had lost its effect at this moment.
The unknown is always frightening.
The lights began to dim, and a loud alarm blared from the corridor outside the lobby, accompanied by a rhythmic clanging of metal.
The High Priest knew that it was an invasion alarm from the Holy Royal City, and the Holy Mechanics guarding the place had already taken action; they would execute any enemy who dared to trespass.
But soon, a new question arose in his mind.
Does the Holy Mechanism truly possess the ability to execute its opponent, and in what way did the opponent infiltrate this impregnable Holy Royal City?
It can affect the fluctuations of light particles, and there is also that intact protective barrier. You should know that even if the opponent really exceeds the speed of light, the protective barrier can easily block them out.
But now...
Suddenly, an unbelievable idea popped into his mind.
The High Priest opened his mouth, his gaze gradually shifting downwards.
The next moment, he let out an unprecedented scream.
"That guy is in our shadows!!"
