No matter what Hao Ren was planning in his head, Noobie had no idea what her future would be like. The little one was still dedicated to her duty as the embodiment of evil, which was to destroy as much as she could. She tore up a pile of old newspapers, creating the sound effects as she did so.

After a while, she started making noise. The hungry little one kept hitting the jar, looking for food. Vivian threw some minced meat into it, the little one began to eat happily. Her change was so obvious that even a careless person like Lily could see it at a glance.

She was very quiet when she was eating, and she knew how to send out the ‘hungry’ signal when she asked for food. It was a sign that she was learning to “communicate”. Even if the communication was brutal and violent, it showed that she began to understand the importance of expressing her will.

Petrachelys was traversed through deep, dark space. The long journey of 2.2 billion light years did not seem so far away after the spacecraft entered subspace. As the dark warping space around the spacecraft expanded, the strange and slightly sparse starry sky appeared before them. This was the spot where the UAV fleet discovered.

As the data show, this was a vacuum of matter. At the scale of 10000 light-years, there was not even an asteroid visible in space, but it lay at the point where the two galaxies met, creating a hazy interstellar dust cloud beyond the boundary of the vacuum zone. Distant starlights from at least 10,000 light-years away entered the region through the dust cloud, looking blurry, sparse and cold.

The spacecraft broke away from hyperspace in a cloud of dust outside the vacuum, cruising forward with various radars on and eventually crossing the sharp dividing line. There were no twists and turns in the process as if the boundary was just a rare harmless natural phenomenon. But even though the radar did not detect anything unusual, everyone in the spacecraft knew that this place was abnormal.

Except for Noobie. She didn’t know what was happening.

Nolan played back images of the spaceship as it crossed the borderline, and at close range, there was little to show, but a picture sent back from a probe tens of millions of kilometers away was much clearer. The front end of the dust cloud was cut off sharply in the air as if it had hit an invisible wall, so sharply demarcated that the picture seemed to have been erased with an eraser.

“We have now entered the vacuum zone.” Nolan’s hologram sat on a console in front of Hao Ren. She was shaking her legs as she spoke, leaving them dangling from the edge of the console, looking relaxed, but in fact, she turned on all her radar and was keeping a vigilant eye on what was going on around her. “Although everyone can see that there is something wrong with this place, none of the detectors have sent back abnormal data so far.”

“There are two speculations. First, something here is hidden by some sort of ‘invisible stance’. Second, the original material here has been ‘excavated’. Both are possible,” Hao Ren said, tapping on the armrest of the captain’s seat. “Interstellar dust at the boundary appears to be in a state of ‘motion blockade’. The clouds are still moving, but none of the particles have crossed the border, which makes it difficult to know which is more likely.”

Muru’s voice came from the communicator. “Maybe it’s the second one: the original material here has been hollowed out.”

The guardian giant took a break from the work of the Crapple Research Station and Tannagost to become Hao Ren’s advisor, which was necessary because of the possibility of the legacy of the goddess of creation. Hao Ren had also arranged a special cabin for the big man in the back of Petrachelys.

“How do you judge that?” Hao Ren asked curiously.

“We’re not ‘invisible’, captain,” Nolan replied. “I’ve placed a small surveillance station before entering the vacuum zone. Now, this surveillance station is looking at our ship from the other side of the border. According to the observation, we show no sign of being invisible.”

Images from the monitoring station were projected onto the console. Hao Ren saw that in an empty space, a small silver dot appeared abruptly on the dark background. There was a blue light behind the white dot – that was the trajectory of Petrachelys’s energy lattice in the background.

“So you can’t be invisible here…” Hao Ren was touching his chin, feeling that something was not right. “But this is where the rift in the Wall of Reality is. Matter can be ‘dug’ away, but how could the rift disappear?”

Vivian looked at him and said, “Let’s look around.”

The upper deck of Petrachelys was slowly unfolding, and an additional set of combined antennas extended from the armor belt. The spacecraft expanded the range of precise sensing and began to look for any clues that might explain the ‘vacuum zone’ in this vast wilderness.

At the same time, numerous silver shuttle-shaped light spots were released from the ejection channels on both sides of the spacecraft and quickly disappeared into the teleportation portal. These light spots were shipborne probes. These high intelligence probes, which were directly controlled by the main engine of the spacecraft, had higher sensitivity, a wider range of motion and faster superluminal transition capability. They were also exceptionally smart. They could judge and detect all kinds of camouflage of the target on their own. These probes, like worker bees scattered from swarms, were rapidly expanding Nolan’s range of sense.

Hao Ren believed that this dark field of 10,000 light-years wide was by no means empty, because the suspicious signal recorded by Antony on that day could not be wrong, and that signal was indeed consistent with the information signature of this space, so this was definitely the rift of the Wall of Reality in the Plane of Dreams.

It’s just that something had kept this rift hidden.

Nolan jumped off the console. Although she was just a hologram, she moved as if she were a real person in the real world. She walked up and down beside Hao Ren, saying, “Show up, show up now…”

Hao Ren looked at her strangely and asked, “Are you chanting?”

Nolan waved and said, “You won’t understand.”

Hao Ren was silent.

Suddenly, Nolan stopped circling and looked in surprise at some position in space. “Ah, there seems to be something over there.”

“What?” Everybody asked.

“A probe found something strange… That’s probably the only space entity within 10000 light years. Let me see… Looks like a man-made structure?” Nolan said quickly as she pressurized the engine.

Soon, Petrachelys arrived at the destination.

A probe was shining blue in space, and behind the probe, Hao Ren saw the upper half of an ancient building floating alone in the universe.

As Nolan said, there was a man-made structure floating in this weird place.

The spacecraft approached the strange object with a spire which resembling a religious facility cautiously and transmitted its detailed images to the holographic projection, which then also showed the size of the building.

It was a 100-meter high man-made facility made of a material similar to granite. It had a central structure with a vault, with a large circular skylight with intricate hollowed patterns in the center. The vault was surrounded by four symmetrically arranged spires, which looked like some kind of church tower. All of these buildings have complex and exquisite decorative patterns on their exteriors. Silver metal and some kind of crystals were interlaced in these decorative patterns, making it look luxurious and mysterious.

Even without these decorations, the whole structure had an obvious sense of sacredness and luxury. Hao Ren looked at it for a long time and believed that it was most likely the upper part of a temple.

They could see clearly that the lower part of the temple had disappeared. The stubble was sharp and smooth as if it had been cut off in the middle by a huge blade.

“I’m afraid it was cut open by a space fault,” said the old demon.

“What do you think this is?” Nangong Sanba asked curiously while lying before the holographic projection.

Vivian frowned slightly, “…Does it look a bit like the temples in Coldpath?”
