Chapter 1091 Doomed to Failure
The Victor they found in this parallel universe had lost his independent consciousness.

However, based on the remaining clues, it can be concluded that Victor is indeed the culprit.

Just as He Xi said, this is what happens after mechanical ascension and failure of consciousness fusion.

Heimerdinger then looked at Lan Hong and asked, "Can we go inside? Perhaps we can get some clues from him."

Heimerdinger pointed to Victor's body.

Blue and Red nodded, then threw Jayce, Ekko, and Heimerdinger into that parallel universe.

Once they've dealt with it, he can then take action and bring them back.

Looking at the desolate space-time, Ge Xiaolun couldn't help but ask, "Is mechanical ascension destined to fail?"

He Xi replied to Ge Xiaolun's question, "Mechanical ascension is certainly not destined to fail. Of course, compared to genetic ascension, mechanical ascension might be easier."

Haven't you all seen examples of mechanical ascension? There are even creatures among the Taotie that have successfully achieved mechanical ascension.

Ge Xiaolun then remembered that, indeed, the Taotie King Shizhu and the white mechs under his command were products of mechanical ascension.

Keisha then spoke up, saying, "For an individual, mechanical ascension is feasible, but for an entire civilization, mechanical ascension is impossible."

"Why is this again?"

"It's very simple, just two words: population. Even angels, as a single-sex civilization, face this problem."

If an entire civilization undergoes mechanical ascension, then no new members will be born.

Or rather, the newly born members are merely a false consciousness bestowed by the computer.

Do you think that situation can last long?

"Actually, there's something even more important."

He Xi added, "That's consciousness sharing! Almost all civilizations that practice mechanical ascension share their consciousness."

But the idea of ​​sharing consciousness is fundamentally impossible to achieve.

To put it bluntly, the concept of shared consciousness is simply a single consciousness.

When the consciousness sharing is completed, it appears that everyone's consciousness has been shared, but in reality, only one main consciousness remains. The others are actually dead, and what remains is just a false consciousness.

When that primary consciousness malfunctions, the entire civilization collapses instantly.

The current state of this parallel universe is a true reflection of the collapse of the entire civilization after the main consciousness malfunctioned.

After entering the parallel universe, Heimerdinger, Ekko, and Jayce immediately examined Viktor's physical condition.

After some investigation, Heimerdinger and Jess confirmed one thing: Viktor had indeed conducted an experiment on mechanical ascension using Hextech, which ultimately failed and caused extremely serious consequences.

“Victor’s body isn’t completely destroyed yet; we might be able to activate it and get more clues.”

Heimerdinger had already begun manipulating Viktor's body as he spoke.

Soon after, Viktor's body was indeed activated.

A portion of consciousness did indeed remain within Viktor's body.

However, once he opens his mouth, it's hard for anyone to lose their composure.

Join the glorious evolution!

"Victor, are you still not coming to your senses? Look at what you've done! Your evolution has failed! You've killed countless people! Do you see that?"

Jess grabbed Victor's body and shook him wildly.

"Ike, stop him! We haven't gathered much intelligence yet. What if his body falls apart?"

Ekko stopped Jayce, who then laid Viktor's body down. Heimerdinger then quickly asked some important questions.

"When did you begin conducting mechanical ascension experiments? And where did you conduct them?"

Viktor's body made a "crackling" sound. Jess thought it was hopeless, but unexpectedly, a glimmer of hope appeared.

Victor's body actually answered Heimerdinger's question.

It turns out that Victor conducted his mechanical ascension experiment not long before they arrived, and the experiment took place in a remote area of ​​Zaun.

He used the guise of treatment to help people conduct experiments on mechanical flight.

He would indeed cure those people, but those who received Victor's treatment became his test subjects.

They felt their consciousness was elevated, becoming incredibly peaceful.

In reality, their consciousness was shared with Victor's, and Victor's consciousness was the dominant one.

Victor can take over their consciousness and dominate their bodies at any time.

However, after completing the consciousness sharing, they were completely unaware of the seriousness of the matter.

After answering Heimerdinger's two questions, Viktor's body was completely destroyed.

“Heimerdinger, we must stop Viktor before his mechanical ascension experiments are rolled out on a large scale.”

“If we do that, we will face tremendous resistance. If I’m not mistaken, at this point in time, Viktor already has a lot of people under his control.”

"Then what should we do? Should we just sit idly by? I definitely can't do that."

"Of course we won't just sit idly by. Let's look for more clues here; maybe we can find a way to break the consciousness sharing."

Jess was very anxious, but he also knew that Heimerdinger was right.

Being anxious is useless; the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes.

He has already made a huge mistake; we cannot allow it to continue.

It all stems from Hextech.

It would have been better if this kind of abused thing had never existed in the first place.

Clearly, Jess's idea is too extreme.

We cannot deny the significance of something just because it is being misused.

The reason why Hextech technology is abused is due to human greed.

Human greed cannot be eliminated; even without Hextech, there will be other technologies.

After searching for a while, Ekko, Jayce, and Heimerdinger found nothing.

With no other option, they had to give up and go back first.

"Mr. Lan Hong, that's enough. Take us back now."

Upon hearing Heimerdinger's voice, Lan Hong didn't hesitate any longer and immediately brought them back.

Lan Hong didn't ask them about their gains, but instead said, "There's another dimension here, let's go take a look."

Lan Hong immediately shifted her perspective to another timeline. This timeline was completely different from the one that had been destroyed.

Meanwhile, in Zaun, Vi once again found Jinx. Although the two fought again, they eventually sat down together.
