Chapter 1115: Interlocked Records


“Akas.h.i.+c Slate?”


After listening to his younger sister’s remarks, Rhode was taken aback. This was his first time hearing his younger sister’s agitated voice. In the past, be it in reality or in the form of a soul fragment, she was always stoic and methodical. But now, for her to react so tensely, this went to show how important that piece of slate was. But Rhode had never heard anyone mention it in the game.


“Yes… Big Brother.”


After hearing Rhode’s doubt, his younger sister calmed down quickly and explained.


“The Akas.h.i.+c Slate records Order and Chaos and is the source of all things. Even we are not aware of when it appeared or who created it. We only know that the Akas.h.i.+c Slate is like the Order Star. They are ancient artifacts that existed way before Order and Chaos. It contains the powers to neutralize Order and Chaos and for this reason, Chaos Beings sealed it in an extremely dangerous place from the very start. But in order for the five of us to escape the land of Chaos and create a world that only belongs to Order, we stole the Akas.h.i.+c Slate, used it to successfully convert Chaos into Order, and used our individual power to create the current Dragon Soul Continent.”


“I see…”


Rhode nodded in response. In this case, this artifact was considered the ultimate creation artifact in the Dragon Soul Continent. But why did it come to this world?


“Big Brother, I suppose you’ve heard from our discussion that after we created the Dragon Soul Continent, Chaos Beings eyed us covetously. In that situation, we searched for ways to leave and head to a new world. After all, we initially created the Dragon Soul Continent to serve as a sanctuary. If it was possible, we also hoped to forever stay away from the threats of Chaos as far as possible, which was why we came up with the Dimension Gate… Back then, we had similar thoughts as you, Big Brother. But we didn’t have the intention to transmigrate the entire Dragon Soul Continent to a new world. Instead, we hoped to use the power of the Akas.h.i.+c Slate to convert Chaos into Order and open up a path for our people to enter the new world. We sent out five of our most trustworthy people. They overcame the obstacle of Chaos with the Akas.h.i.+c Slate and elite troops and opened up the path to the new world. Our initial thought was that after they arrived at the new world, they would use the Akas.h.i.+c Slate to link up with the Dragon Soul Continent. Through this way, we could stay away from the threats of this world. But for some unknown reason, we received no news from them after they left. In the end, we had no choice but to accept the failure of our plan and it was from then when we racked our brains to build the Dragon Soul Continent into our home isolated from Chaos. But that wasn’t a long-term solution, after all. We eventually decided to head to the outside world to give it a shot. But unlike the past and due to the past lesson learned, we didn’t send out our followers, but went ourselves instead. That was why we left behind our dragon soul powers in the Dragon Soul Continent and transmigrated to this world using our souls…”


I see.


After hearing his younger sister’s explanation, Rhode nodded in response. He criticized the Creator Dragons for being so adventurous in the past when they clearly knew that the situation was too dangerous and yet, they chose to do it themselves. But it seemed like they had sent out their followers and suffered a double loss. Not only was the channel unopened, but they also lost their precious creation artifact. As for their second attempt, the Creator Dragons were afraid and no longer dared to risk sending out their followers, which explained why they were more a.s.sured to do it themselves.


“In other words, the followers you dispatched should have transmigrated to Earth?”


Rhode said, strolling toward the side of the hovering slate. Then, he asked: “When did that happen?”


“That…”


His younger sister pondered in silence.


“… was around 10,000 years ago.”


… Alright then, perhaps there are finally a.s.sured results for sources of ancient civilization relics on the street tabloids now.


“It seems like it isn’t a coincidence that we returned to Earth. It is highly possible that our powers resonated with the Akas.h.i.+c Slate… but why did this happen? Why is the Akas.h.i.+c Slate on the moon? Even though the harsh environment isn’t an issue for us, humans shouldn’t be living here…”


“Alright then. We would have found the rabbits and the palace if they existed on the moon. But it doesn’t matter. Since those guys are in possession of the slate, they should know where they came from. As long as we interrogate them, we will get our answer.”


Rhode said, lifting his head and gazing at the slate before him.


“What should we do now? Take it away with us?”


“Of course, Big Brother. But please seal it carefully. This Akas.h.i.+c Slate isn’t complete as it is just a part of the entire thing. If anything were to go wrong, it would be triggered automatically, causing the surrounding Order and Chaos to swap over and summon Chaos Beasts from the channel connecting to the Chaos’s plane.”


“Okay.”


Rhode nodded and raised his right hand.


Shortly after, a string of golden light erupted from his hand, transforming into beautiful runes one by one that wrapped the slate like a chain. As soon as the chain of runes touched the black slate, the black slate trembled abruptly and released a white halo. But before the white halo expanded, it vanished quickly, while the black slate flickered for a few moments. Then, it returned to being an unremarkable slate and landed on Rhode’s hand silently.


“Oh-oh-oh, what’s that thing, Leader?”


Looking at the black slate in Rhode’s hand, Mini Bubble Gum and Canary crowded over curiously. Mini Bubble Gum’s eyes glinted.


“Oh, I know this thing! I know it! I saw it in a movie! Leader, this is that thing, right? If I rub the surface hard, I will turn into an intelligent…”


“Alright, stop fooling around.”


Upon seeing Mini Bubble Gum extending her hand to rub the black slate to see if she could become the ‘G.o.d of new humans’, Rhode knocked her head with his fist immediately to stop her. He turned around and glanced at the ceiling. Even though he didn’t have his dragon essence, his sharp senses detected the complete chaos that had erupted above. And now, all they had to do was to search for the truth to everything.


“We still have things to do. It’s about time to let Her Highness Lydia return,” Rhode said, turning around and exiting the mysterious room.

“The second district base is under attack.”


Gazing at the information before him, Manny knitted his brows and spoke. He turned around and gazed complicatedly at the trio sitting at the back. Erin was casually sipping the red tea, while Mini Bubble Gum and Canary were bored stiff, scrolling through online novels on their smartphones. Earlier on, Manny and his two subjects were captured by Erin unreasonably. Erin hoped to receive their a.s.sistance since the locations of the remaining black slates were confidential. On the other hand, Canary no longer wished to attack directly like they did before. If they could receive a.s.sistance, it would be for the best, which was why they captured Manny and asked for his help.


Manny had no choice but to agree with them. One, he was no match for them. Two, his researcher’s investigative mind was also really curious about the three young ladies. After all, they seemed to understand the black slate more than him when he had already spent a dozen years trying to decipher it. If he a.s.sisted them, perhaps he might use the opportunity to unravel the truth. Harboring such an att.i.tude, Manny tossed the thought of the ‘dangers of humanity’ to the back of his head and ‘defected’.


“Under attack?”


Upon hearing Manny’s words, the three young ladies lifted their heads and gazed at him with curious eyes.


“Do you know who the attackers are?”


“Let me try… hmmm, it seems like the external communication system has been cut off completely… no, it doesn’t work. I can’t connect to their internal system. The only thing I know is that the attackers have suppressed the base resistance…” Manny said, turning around to gaze strangely at the trio. “… Are they your companions?”


“…”


In the face of this question, the trio was taken aback. Indeed, a world war wasn’t ongoing so logically speaking, there shouldn’t be anyone attacking the moon bases apart from mysterious people like them. But according to Manny, it seemed like the attackers had invaded the second base. Could this mean that they were also after the black slate?


“I’m connecting to the satellite to see if I can find any traces.”


Not only was the trio dubious about this question, but Manny was also somewhat curious, which was why he turned around and tapped the keyboard to connect to the surveillance cameras and satellites from everywhere. Shortly after, a video played in front of him and he widened his eyes in astonishment.


“Oh, Lord… this is…”


An angel emanating in a golden brilliance soared majestically in s.p.a.ce. In the face of the fighter aircrafts, she didn’t even evade and simply s.h.i.+fted to the side as though she were dancing. She brandished her swords in a crisscrossed stance and two streaks of dazzling golden radiance ripped apart the fighter aircrafts entirely.


“Oh-oh-oh, this is…!”


At this moment, Canary and Mini Bubble Gum also saw the screen. But unlike Manny’s astonished expression, they jumped to their feet in excitement and joy.


“… Her Highness Lydia!”
