The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven
Chapter 1122 The Unknowable
Chapter 1122 The Unknowable
On the other side, on the colorful star.
Liu Sheng and his group have arrived at the residence of the Kovien family.
When viewed from above, the scattered floating islands resemble shattered gems suspended above the colorful sea of clouds. In comparison, the Kovien family's residence is quite large.
After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
According to Helena, the other floating islands are mostly occupied by ordinary companies or non-noble residences, and of course, they cannot be compared with the once noble Kovin Group.
As for the territories of other noble families, they are mostly located in more remote, higher altitudes and have not yet been seen.
Besides Bell Labs.
Bell Labs is easily visible because of its immense size, built in the shape of a ring city, like a giant silver ring floating quietly above the colorful clouds.
That is where the Supreme Council is located, and it is also the hub of the entire Star of Spectrum, hence it is also known as the "Central City-State"—equivalent to the capital of Star of Spectrum.
Colorful clouds and mist are everywhere.
Liu Sheng originally thought that he would be able to see the true face of the planet after passing through the colorful atmosphere, but he didn't expect that there was nothing but clouds and fog.
According to Helena Rubinstein, the Spectrum Star is a gas giant.
Liu Sheng quickly analyzed that these clouds and fogs were a type of heavy aerosol containing high-energy particles, which settled in the lower atmosphere and decreased in concentration as the atmosphere rose higher.
Its composition is extremely similar to the "Echo" seized from the KOVEIN. Long-term inhalation can also cause symptoms such as dizziness, palpitations, and hallucinations, and the higher the concentration, the more severe the symptoms.
Therefore, better bases are usually located on slightly higher low-pressure layers.
The headquarters of the Kovin Group is located at a slightly lower elevation than the central city-state, but the clouds outside are already quite thin, and there is also a spherical protective force field that keeps the surging, colorful sea of clouds out.
Within the force field, it is further divided into inner and outer cities.
The core members of the group are all in the inner city, and the ships fly directly to the inner city. The outer city is only glanced at briefly when passing by, and it is almost deserted.
The buildings resemble semi-transparent spheres of varying sizes, with colorful, curtain-like threads growing everywhere, entwining and connecting these spherical structures, and spreading wildly through the streets, creating a desolate and gloomy atmosphere despite their vibrant colors.
The inner city is different.
The architecture is distinctly Western imperial classical style – snow-white stone pillars, towering vaults, tiered arcades, and vibrant colors flowing between the tiles and brickwork.
The delicate, filamentous plants, meticulously trimmed and embedded in the courtyards and streets, add a touch of splendor to this magnificent and ancient architectural complex. Countless colorful ribbons cascade out, like ribbons filling the sky, as if it were a never-ending carnival.
The engine noise gradually subsided, and the frigate was slowly descending.
Several frigates of the same type were docked at the pier, along with a number of shuttle ships scattered around. There were no larger ships, as this was the inner harbor of the base and there was no need for those deep-space behemoths.
The gangway descended, and two people were already waiting on the dock.
A middle-aged woman dressed in a well-fitting black dress, her hair tied in a tight bun at the back of her head, immediately smiled faintly:
"Lady Helena, Mistress Oz!"
She was also holding the hand of a boy about the same age as Ariel, with shiny brass-colored curly hair and freckles on his face, resembling Helena in appearance.
"Mom, I miss you so much..."
Upon seeing Helena, the boy sobbed and threw himself into her arms.
Helena suddenly frowned slightly and gently pushed him away.
"Honey, have you done your homework properly?"
"mother!"
Helena ruffled his hair and explained to everyone:
“This is my son, Gavin.”
Gavin peeked out, stealthily eyeing the strangers, especially Ariel, who was about his age, and timidly said, "Hello."
"This is my secretary, Angela."
Angela was puzzled, but seeing Helena's respectful expression, she also bowed respectfully.
Helena lowered her voice: "These are the distinguished guests I invited. It's not convenient to talk here. Let's get in the car and go to the Palm Garden."
Angela nodded: "Understood, the car is ready."
At the same time, a silver droplet appeared before them.
"Please, gentlemen, get on the carriage."
Angela gave a professional smile and stood to the side.
The silver droplet surface slid open as if flowing liquid, revealing a spacious interior with four rows of seats, one on each side.
Upon hearing the words "banquet," the eyes of the Taibai Sword Immortal under his thick eyebrows lit up. He couldn't wait to squeeze in. The seats were spacious enough that even his round figure could fit in.
As soon as you lean back in the ergonomic backrest, the armrest slides open to reveal a can of ice-cold beverage.
Angela says it's a colorful cola with a touch of "echo" added, which is said to give you a boost of energy.
But as soon as he said that, no one dared to touch it.
People don't have a very good impression of "echoes".
Once everyone was on the bus, Ozer's particle form disintegrated, transforming into a data stream that entered the bus's terminal.
The surface of the water droplet shimmered with silver light, the entrance vanished silently, and then the vehicle body shuddered slightly, almost without making a sound, before smoothly levitating and rising.
The exterior looks like flowing silver, but the inside is very transparent, offering a 360-degree panoramic view, perfect for appreciating the unique scenery along the way.
The bustling shops in the inner city center are layered upon layer, with supermarkets, grocery stores, beauty salons, clothing stores, restaurants and more. They are elegantly decorated, with flowing lights and a constant stream of pedestrians, as if the desolation of the outer city has not affected this place.
The people here mostly have brown hair, healthy skin, regular facial features, and symmetrical limbs, almost like perfect templates, completely different from the scavengers who are missing arms and legs or have crooked eyes and noses.
Her clothing also featured a retro Western imperial style.
The women all wore magnificent long dresses, with crinolines that made the skirts bloom like flowers, complete with various light and shadow effects, showcasing their elegance in every detail; the men wore flowing tops, well-tailored breeches, and high boots, some of them also wearing capes, their every move exuding elegance.
Were it not for the colorful ribbons fluttering everywhere, the ubiquitous mirage advertisements, the light screens occasionally raised by pedestrians, and the trails of light left by identical silver water droplets, flying skateboards, and aerial trains that occasionally swept through the air, one would almost mistake it for a journey back to the golden age of an ancient Western empire.
"Those who remain at the base now are the core members of our Kovien family."
“Once the ‘Unknown One’ falls and loses his noble status, the people who originally depended on him will naturally feel the loss of protection and will naturally turn to other nobles.”
Helena sighed softly.
Liu Sheng asked, "So, on the Spectral Star, the 'Unknowable' are also equivalent to gods?"
“Of course.” Helena smiled slightly. “Only faith can elevate life to another dimension, and I’m sure Lord Liu has countless believers.”
Liu Sheng smiled but remained silent.
This means by default.
Angela still found it somewhat unbelievable.
Helena had just introduced Liu Sheng and his group to Angela, and in particular, she subtly pointed out that Liu Sheng was the most crucial person, a benefactor who could help the Covin Group get out of its predicament.
This seems to mean that this Lord Liu Sheng is actually an "unknowable one"?
Strangely, she didn't feel that intense pressure from the "Unknown One" emanating from Liu Sheng. Although she had never been so close to the "Unknown One," she had seen them flying overhead from afar.
The intense pressure was so overwhelming that even from a distance, it was suffocating, as if you were on a cliff by the sea, where a gentle wave could sweep you off your feet and crush you to pieces.
Who would have thought we'd be riding in the same car again?
But Helena's statement is absolutely correct; it can only mean that the other party has a very strong ability to control, and may even be able to control dimensions to stabilize themselves in this realm.
Who would have thought it wasn't just Liu Sheng?
Li Taibai, who kept snacking as soon as he got in the car, Ariel, who was pestered by Gavin to play StarNet games together, and even the "orchid" in Ariel's hand, have all taken that step and become real "unknowns"?
The main issue is that they simply cannot imagine the existence of a "decentralized godhood" system—
Energy can flow freely at every node. Once that crucial step has been taken, it is entirely possible to jump back and forth between the "unknown" and the "strategic".
This has already been achieved by Wen Weilan.
The main reason is that everyone doesn't want to be too high-profile right now. Hiding can be a backup plan, so for now, they only say that Liu Sheng is "the unknown one".
Taibai Sword Immortal, Ariel, and Zhang Lan are all hiding for the time being.
Anyway, Helena and Ozer never came into contact with the scavengers without being monitored while on the Kovion, so they didn't know or imagine that there was more than one "Unknown One" who attacked the Kovion.
Otherwise, they might not have dared to bring about a hundred people to negotiate like this.
The two can form a "bond of faith".
The three can form a "connecting triangle"—a small-scale skynet.
Three or more people can form a true Heavenly Net.
This is why Liu Sheng needed to bring so many people with him. Besides being worried about the unpredictable situation on Banlanxing, he also needed to establish a good network of surveillance systems to avoid having to set up temporary structures every time, as was the case in high-dimensional analysis.
Therefore, with only one being exposed, the remaining energy is temporarily suppressed in Skynet and can be used only when needed, creating a maximum of four "Unknowns".
As for Liu Hongshan and Liu Hongyi, they haven't taken that step yet; at most, they can only reach the strategic peak level with this energy.
Therefore, the key is still to make a breakthrough.
And I've come here now for this very opportunity.
Moreover, the "unknowable" here do not need to force themselves to live alone in the Heavenly Court like Liu Sheng, enduring the unbearable cold of the higher dimensions, nor dare to arbitrarily disturb the causal order of the human world and invite backlash.
Ultimately, the reason is that the "experimental field" was built in a low-lying area, so its dimension is inherently one level lower than that of the void.
So, in a sense, although the "Unknowable Ones" belong to the highest dimension in the experimental field, once they leave the experimental field, they are only roughly in the same dimension as the humans of the Colorful Star.
Of course, if the people of the Spectral Star cross the black barrier and enter the Earth Mother Civilization, they will also experience a dimensional reduction. Perhaps they can recover after escaping, or perhaps unknowable consequences will occur.
That's another matter.
"So the more people believe in it, the stronger the 'Unknown Ones' will become. Is this the reason for the war of conquest?" said the Taibai Sword Immortal, chewing on a colorful pastry on the carriage.
Ozer's light and shadow appeared, and he nodded slightly.
“That’s right. After all, in terms of energy level, there is no difference between ‘unknown’ and ‘strategic’. What really brings about a qualitative change is the level of influence – that is, the ability to influence rules and dimensions.”
"So the early 'unknowable ones' pondered how to go further, and that's when they discovered that only the power of consciousness could transcend dimensions."
Although this point is abstract, Liu Sheng can understand it.
In reality, matter is limited by spatial dimensions, energy is limited by fields and conservation laws, and the movement of any object must follow local causality.
But the information is different.
Information can be mapped to different dimensions to produce corresponding projection structures.
Consciousness is also a form of information.
It's like a strange creature born from an obsession that creates an abyss.
Just as faith gives rise to higher-dimensional deities.
In the ancient myths of the Federal Empire, an old father, through love that transcends time and space, transmitted quantum data from the depths of a black hole to his daughter in the past via a higher dimension. Ultimately, this helped his grown-up daughter solve the equations of gravity and save all of humanity.
These are all manifestations of information mapping.
Only consciousness can break through the limitations of the material dimension, transcend the linear flow of time, and enter a higher degree of freedom.
Helena continued, "I'm sure Lord Liu also knows that faith can unlock the additional abilities of the 'Unknown Ones,' and the more you accumulate, the more layers you can unlock."
Actually, she wasn't sure if Liu Sheng really knew.
This is a test.
If Liu Sheng showed doubt, it meant that the other party might not have even reached the first level; if his expression flickered, he was only a beginner in this realm.
Unexpectedly, Liu Sheng simply nodded slightly.
"Yes."
Helena was stunned—
Could it be that this "unknown" from the "native" experimental planet really does have additional abilities?
However, Taibai Sword Immortal and Ariel, who were standing nearby, perked up their ears, and the orchid in their hands quietly tilted its flower stalk.
Ozer understood and continued to probe:
"Rumor has it that Dr. Bell II of Bell Labs has activated five additional abilities and is currently the strongest known individual on the planet Banlan."
"Secondly, the 'Spirit of Childbirth' of the Izetta Foundation, and the 'Godforger' of the Taran family, have both awakened the fourth level."
"These three families have thus firmly established themselves among the top noble families."
"Next up are Brock Hemick, the 'Crowbeak' of the Hemick family, Rise Kirigiri, the 'Mirror Walker' of the Kirigakure family, and Gu Huaizhi, the 'Fragment of the Six Classics' of the Changning Gu family, who have already activated the third level."
"The rest are all below level three."
Oze was confident that if Liu Sheng showed fear when listening to these lists and the opening of multiple numbers, it meant that the situation was far from over.
however.
Liu Sheng remained calm.
"I see."
There was no trace of fear on his face.
Helena and Oze exchanged a glance.
Is it ignorance breeds fearlessness, or is she truly confident enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with these top experts?
For Liu Sheng—
Isn't this the "halo of the cornerstone of faith"?
So this is an additional ability.
So, she has already activated three levels and is about to activate the fourth, on this colorful star...
It seems like it can still be ranked?
Happy Lunar New Year's Eve!
Wishing everyone a prosperous and successful Year of the Horse!
