This was Lockmarton’s ir’.
This was so unexpected that Hao Ren was stunned for more than a dozen seconds after seeing the parsed text until the data terminal began bumping into his head impatiently. “Hey... What are these?”
“How do I know if you just stand there and not saying a word?” The data terminal whizzed around. “What do you find out? Was this the pit dug by the Goddess of Creation? Was she addicted to digging holes before she created life?”
“It’s air for Lockmarton...” Hao Ren frowned. “I can now confirm that the Crimson Moon is indeed a projection of the Star of Creation – just downsizing. But the Lockmarton we saw in Collow is hundreds of kilometers in size. Even if the size of the den on the Star of Creation is the original size, it shouldn’t be able to amodate the huge body of Lockmarton... So this should be the ce where Lockmarton spent his childhood.”
Hearing Hao Ren’s words, the data terminal stood still in the air for a long time (which probably means stunned), and it took several seconds to break the silence. “... Bro, you really deserve the Goddess’s approval. Every clue you found is big news.”
Hao Ren did not refute the data terminal at all this time but touched his chin thoughtfully. “What period do you think the Crimson Moon was the projection of the Star of Creation?”
“What period? What does that mean?”
“I’ve seen the Star of Creation in illusions — at least part of it. In the illusion, I saw the magnificent temples on the Sea of Lifeblood, the white towers, and the continuous assembly halls. They were so huge that even the guardian giants could walk freely in them. So the buildings were quite eye-catching at any time, but we haven’t found anything like that here. The probe has scanned the surface of the Crimson Moon. Apart from a few rocks and inds that protrude from the sea, we can’t see any targets other than the sea on this dwarf.”
Hao Ren said as he raised his finger to theirs that had apanied Lockmarton through his ‘childhood’. “There are also these things. Muru and Lemendusa grew up on the Star of Creation but they never knew there were these relics on the Star of Creation.”
The data terminal got what Hao Ren meant. “You mean... The Crimson Moon summoned by Vivian is actually a copy of the Star of Creation in ancient times?”
“The Star of Creation has two eras.” Hao Ren nodded. “There is a dividing line between the return of the Goddess of Creation against the Mad Lord and the seal of self-memory. In the former era, only the Goddess and Lockmarton live together on the. In thetter era, it is the active stage for guardian giants, Firstborns and the Seed of Origin. What I see in the illusion is undoubtedly the second era. I think the reason why Muru didn’t know that Lockmarton’sir was on the Star of Creation was that the Goddess of Creation erased all these traces before she sealed her memory. After all, she’s going to delete all the information about the Mad Lord.”
“Now it seems that she didn’t delete it thoroughly,” said the data terminal. “The Star of Creation of the first era have been re-emerged.”
Hao Ren nodded and connected themunication with the new Aerym: Now that the Crimson Moon has stabilized, Vivian should also have spared energy to talk to him.
“Hao Ren?” Vivian’s voice came from themunicator. “What’s the situation over there? “Everything’s going well here!”
“I’m on the surface of the Crimson Moon, and we have a big discovery. It’s now certain that the Crimson Moon is a miniature copy of the Star of Creation. Its diameter is about one-eighth of that of the Star of Creation. It has entities but no gravity. In addition, it has arge number of anomalous properties that do not conform to thews of physics. I found Lockmarton’sir on the back of the Crimson Moon. It was built by the Goddess of Creation. Judging from its size, it should be the ce where Lockmarton spent his childhood. I now suspect that the Crimson Moon copies the features of the Star of Creation in ancient times.”
“Wow...”
“What does it mean?”
“A little surprised, but not too unexpected. I had long suspected that the Crimson Moon was rted to the Star of Creation, but I didn’t expect you to find Lockmarton’sir there. I suddenly found myself so powerful that I actually summoned such a thing.”
Hao Ren, “...”
It seemed that Vivian was still in a stable mood after she learned about the big news.
Then, Lily’s voice burst in. “Landlord! Remember to take more pictures! Come back and show me!”
“I’m doing scientific research here. Can you be serious?” Hao Ren said, rolling his eyes.
“Then next time you take me there – I think Vivian is in a stable situation here and she probably won’t need an emergency stop...”
Has this Husky made the Crimson Moon a tourist attraction?
While Hao Ren was speechless about Lily’s idea, Nn’s voice suddenly sounded on another channel. “Hao Ren, the detector found something on the bottom of the sea – you should be interested.”
Hao Ren quickly grasped the data terminal floating around him and put it in front of him. “Show me!”
The holographic image on the data terminal switched quickly to the perspective of the detector transferred by Nn. Hao Ren saw a dim red field of vision appeared on the screen. Under the various enhancement filters and image enhancement effects brought by the detector, the dark red field of vision gradually became clear.
The detector moved quickly over a rugged sea bed. The sea bed was covered with ck rugged rocks. The rocks retreated rapidly and then, arge crystal appeared before Hao Ren’s eyes.
It was like a dense growth of crystal clusters, most of which had thriving straight lines and clear texture. After filtering out the red color of the sea water, these crystal clusters showed a beautiful blue-white luster, which was ipatible with the red atmosphere of the Star of Creation itself. These crystals grew in clusters on the bottom of the sea, sharp tips like branches of trees reaching up to the sea. Among them, Hao Ren saw a lot of hovering luminous objects, which were diamond-shaped crystal fragments – it looked like falling from the crystal clusters.
These shining crystal fragments and the soft halo emitted by the crystal clusters themselves reflected each other, making the original extremely dark seabed particrly bright. Hao Ren believed that they could see clearly everything around the seabed even without the night vision function of the detector.
“What are these crystals...” He touched his chin and muttered. “Nn, can you analyze theirposition?”
“The list of ingredients has been sent to you, but nothing is worth noticing. It is a highly conductive and high-intensity crystallization and has a high passability to energy such as Arcane. Preliminary analysis of the shipborne mainframe suggests that there should be some resonance effect between these crystals, but it is probably the ‘static’ property of the Crimson Moon itself that has an effect. I can’t observe the crystals. Direct evidence of resonance between the clusters did not respond to the stimtion. It’s also interesting to note that I haven’t found anything like these clusters elsewhere in the Crimson Moon, and only one crystal on the seabed of the whole has been scanned, which is not quite in line with the general pattern ofary formation.”
Hao Ren frowned and connected themunication to the public channel. “The detector foundrge crystal clusters on the seabed of the Crimson Moon Sea. I’m going to go down and have a look.”
Vivian was a little worried “Wouldn’t there be any problem?”
“The detector didn’t find any danger, and I won’t mess around.”
“Well, be careful.”
“Okay.” Hao Ren hung up and then, together with the data terminal, he followed the locator coordinates sent by the detector to the deep sea.
A momentter, they arrived at the seabed.
Hao Ren’s action is slightly limited by the strong water pressure on his body, but thanks to the Steel Membrane Shield and the fact that the Crimson Moon Sea was not very deep, so Hao Ren could withstand the water pressure. Feeling the resistance between his hands and feet, he could not help wondering: the water pressure was caused by the gravitational pull of the, and the existence of water pressure meant the existence of gravity. However, the result of gravitational exploration of the Crimson Moon in space was nk, which meant that the had no gravitational disturbance to the outside world... This was hugely abnormal.
He could not help thinking of a word that could exin the phenomena in front of him a little: a semi-closed system.
The Crimson Moon may be such a system: as a ‘summoner’ that did not exist in the real world, its physical attributes were closed internally. It might have gravity and mass, but these attributes were limited to the Crimson Moon itself. It was ipatible with the real world outside, which led to some of its physical attributes could not affect the real world outside. When the observer looked out at it, its gravitational pull was zero. But the Crimson Moon was not totally divorced from the world (otherwise it could not be observed). Its radiation could affect the outside world, it could also be observed optically, and if someone entered the ‘system’ of the Crimson Moon, one could feel part of its impact——
Like the water pressure in the sea of the Crimson Moon.
This was really an interesting ’.
With this in mind, he came to one of thergest crystal clusters.
The crystal was releasing a soft glow, like a towering tree quietly standing on the seabed, which seemed to be full of mysterious atmosphere. The data terminal moved around the backbone of the cluster, and the scanning beam cast bright blue reticr lines across the crystal surface.
But like Nn’s detectors, the data terminal could only scan some simple physical parameters of the crystals but could do nothing about the secrets deep inside the crystals.
But Hao Ren had a strong hunch that the crystals growing on the sea floor were anything but simple. They were different from the material parameters gathered throughout the Crimson Moon, and they were anything but a product of the itself. This alone was enough to make them intriguing.
The data terminal scanned around the crystal cluster and then muttered, “It’s just a hard stone, nothing can be read...”
Hao Ren said nothing but put his hand on the surface of the biggest crystal and stroked it gently with a thoughtful look on his face.
Inadvertently, the scar of the divine blood burn on his palm touched the crystal.
He felt a dull heat.
