Global Mining.

Chapter 821: Cracking the Law of Creation
From the old arena to the void!?

In the past, Da Chun wouldn't have understood. But upon seeing the familiar metallic luster of the floating asteroid, Da Chun instantly realized it was the Demon Gold Meteorite! It was another backdoor opened by the Ten Elders! As long as it's a backdoor, it's a creation rule, and it's possible that it's connected to the rules of the arena.

The next moment, Da Chun saw the Ugly Queen Celia waving at him from the airship deck.

By the way, is this the first time Seria has seen my true form? What about Cosmos and Tiffana?
Da Chun landed on a meteorite.

—Master-level mining tip: You have discovered a divine stone mine!

Da Chun then discovered that his mining skills were at the earliest master level, and he had remained at the master level ever since.

The Ugly King laughed and said, "Warrior, have you discovered anything?"

Da Chun still exclaimed in amazement: "Divine stone, magic gold ore!"

Seria sighed, "A hundred years ago, a violent spatial fluctuation occurred in the void, resulting in several divine stone meteorites. However, these meteorites were extremely unstable; some were mined by the Golden Throne, others were devoured by void creatures, and then a void storm struck. Three of the remaining meteorites crashed towards the Golden Continent, while several others disappeared into the void. Our main mission for this void expedition was to find the meteorites that scattered back then. Now, we've found one!"

Da Chun's brows twitched violently as he listened. A hundred years ago, it must have been the Ten Elders who opened the back door for him. If the three meteorites fell to the Golden Continent, then wouldn't I have found them all? One was Southern Canyon Village, one was Plague Island, and the other was the wishing crystal meteorite crater that the Pirate King found in the Sea of ​​Creation. Now, Evil Spirit Island has been guarded by the Old Turtle for almost a month!
If I obtain three meteorites, can I then contend for the throne?
The Ugly Emperor laughed, "Although we've found it, we can't get out for now. The reason this meteorite was preserved intact and wasn't eaten by the void creatures is because it's surrounded by a layer of the laws of creation. Originally, we couldn't have gotten in either. It was Gauss and Ms. Tiffana's mechanical calculator that figured out how to get in. Now they're calculating how to get out. According to them, getting out will be much more difficult, but we're not in a hurry. Anyway, the ship can provide food and drink for a year."

As expected of Tifa! And this robot that Tifa is possessing looks so much like Athena, it must also be a system tool, right?

Da Chun was shocked: "Could you tell me more about the laws of creation?"

Although the laws of creation are rules set by programmers when making games, how do they appear in the eyes of NPCs?

Seria sighed, "I don't know much, but I do know that it completely transcends the laws of normal spacetime. For example, the most common example is the monster sieges of various cities, and the massive teleportation of hundreds of thousands of units, which completely exceeds the spatial understanding of normal gods. The lucky blessings of large-scale festivals and celebrations also completely exceed the understanding of normal gods. This is the law of the creator god! It's just that people are used to it and think that this is how gods should be. In fact, in the eyes of the gods, this is also an incredibly mysterious power!"

Holy crap, that's true! As a player myself, I'm used to the game's mechanics.

Seria laughed again, "And then there's the match that's currently underway. This is also a law of the Creator God, so Tiffana said last night that she had a chance to meet you through the match, and that's why you came!"

Da Chun asked, "Where is Tiffana?"

Ugly Emperor laughed and said, "It's been connected to the engine room for calculations. This computer is very power-consuming, but luckily we're on the Divine Stone Meteorite, so there's no shortage of fuel."

Celia smiled and said, "Normally, we shouldn't disturb their calculations, but since you're here, go and take a look."

I need to reveal some secrets!
Da Chun first confirmed: "Do you know Tiffana's identity now?"

The Ugly King laughed and said, "Tifa! This child has been exceptionally intelligent since she was little, but she's not really suited to magic. Mathematics and mechanics are her forte."

Da Chun then asked, "Gauss also knows her identity, right?"

The Ugly King chuckled, "Don't worry, Gauss is a very noble and focused mathematician. He's not interested in anything outside of mathematics. He's Tifa's math teacher now, and he'll keep it a secret. Although I've built a friendship with Gauss through learning math, I'm not a math god. Perhaps Tifa is more suitable?"

Celia laughed and said, "Although the calculation of the laws of creation has stopped the deduction of the spirits of nature, as long as Tifa's mathematics improves, it should be able to make up for it doubly, right?"

Da Chun then asked, "Does Tifa know about the Dragon's Rest Temple?"

Celia laughed and said, "Tifana asked me about it last night. I have heard about it, but not much. She said she wants to go there and see for herself, so you can go and tell her."

Sigh, you really are still that Mother Earth who "doesn't know everything"...

Da Chun entered the airship's engine room and knocked gently on the door.

Tiffana's mechanical voice came through: "Da Chun? Please come in."

The voice was both strange and familiar.

Da Chun pushed open the door and entered. The first thing he saw was a large table, with Tiffana, dressed as a spider, perched on it. A bunch of pipes connected to a power machine next to it, and the spider's body shimmered.

Gauss, with his disheveled hair, was also rummaging through a magic crystal screen on the table. The magic crystal screen also had a data cable connected to the spider.

He was indeed focused, not even looking up, completely ignoring Da Chun's arrival.

Tiffana didn't waste any words: "You must have gotten something from the old arena's server room to get here, right? We need it!"

Da Chun first asked Yatnas, "Yatnas, could you lend a hand in this research?"

Yatnas said, "This is a low-end version of the future repair robot. I also really need to exchange some data. Just grab one of her charging cables with your finger."

very good!

Da Chun said, "Yatenas agreed, I'm going to grab the wire."

Just then, Gauss suddenly looked up, his expression excited: "Yatnas?"

Ha, finally you've given me a second glance?

Da Chun said, "It's an old version from a thousand years ago! Now it's been upgraded to version 1.90."

Gauss exclaimed excitedly, "The old version is better! Connect the data first!"

Da Chun grabbed the power line, and a flash of electricity appeared.

—Ayatnas 1.90Plus+ version notification: Data linking in progress…

Tifana was surprised: "Can I come over here and take a look?"

Da Chun asked in surprise, "How did you get here?"

"I can also come down the power line!"

"Sure, sure, welcome, welcome!"

The next moment, lightning flashed in Da Chun's divine realm, and Tifa's humanoid form appeared in Da Chun's divine realm.

Tifa exclaimed, "I heard something big happened in Oak City. It really was you! Amazing!"

Da Chun hurriedly asked, "Does anyone else know that I did it?"

Tifa laughed and said, "I don't know. This part of my soul is trapped in the laws of creation and busy learning calculations, so the connection with the main body is a bit blurred. I only know about very important things."

Da Chun asked, "Will our conversation now interfere with your calculations?"

Tifa laughed and said, "You've brought the laws of creation with you, why should we bother with calculations? Let's take a break first."

Da Chun started with the important matter: "I know the coordinates of several entrances to the Dragon Sleep Temple outside Bronze City. In my opinion, the spatial rules there are the same as those in the arena, possibly even the rules of creation—"

Tifa got excited: "Tell me the coordinates!"

Da Chun immediately pulled out his phone, took a screenshot, and sent the coordinates. He had sent the screenshot to Zhou Qing so that a team could be formed in China to locate them. Tifa couldn't wait: "Great, I'll go right away!"

Da Chun panicked: "It's dawn now! The whole city is searching for you, and even if you go there, there's no guarantee you'll be able to get in immediately..."

Tifa smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way."

Okay. Just to be on the safe side, I'll call Zhou Qing later and ask Moore to come out and meet us.

Da Chun said the second important thing: "The evil god of the Bronze City's Tomb was actually occupied by the slime lady in the sewers several days ago. She was going to rush out last night and was very likely to encounter the guardian god. Fortunately, Midnight Moore stopped her in time. When you go to the entrance of the Dragon Sleep Temple later, you may also meet Midnight Moore. He is in squirrel form now and may be able to help you."

The two sentences about Midnight Moore mentioned later don't actually conform to the norms of NPC dialogue, because NPCs filter out information about players other than the current quest player, except for the Sage. Oakwood Flower frequently mentions the Oakwood Sage when talking to herself. Anyway, never mind, just treat her as a real person.

Tifa exclaimed in surprise, "Does that mean she's become an evil god?"

Da Chun said, "That's a good evil god too!"

She's your mother after all.

Tifa said in a deep voice, "But the Bronze Sage has planted a large number of mine bombs near the tomb. The moment she comes out, it will inevitably trigger a huge explosion!"

What the hell!

Ah, she mentioned the sage too!

Da Chun tried recommending other players: "Don't worry, Midnight Moore will notify her in time."

Tifa seemed to be giving an irrelevant answer: "Okay, I believe you have a way."

Um... I think Moore was filtered out, right? So she heard it as "Don't worry, we'll notify her in time?"

Oh, that's it.

Da Chun asked, "Why did you resort to such an extreme measure as running away?"

Tifa said, "That's not important. You must have used up a lot of energy to get here from the arena. Let's get down to business. We're currently working on deciphering the laws of creation. Once we succeed, we'll probably be able to activate the laws of creation like the Hell Demon Temple and launch a large-scale teleportation. Then we can teleport this Godstone Star away. This process is very energy-intensive, but the Godstone Star already has a lot of energy. Even if we use up 99% and only leave 1%, it will still be a huge resource for you and me personally."

Personally speaking, for you and me!

"You've included me too," Da Chun thought with a warmth in his heart. "Then can the Law of Yatenas help us break it?"

Tifa said, "It's not possible yet. Judging from her self-proclaimed 1.90 version naming, the current Creation Law is at least version 2.0, which is a huge gap from version 1.99. We need to collect more Creation Laws."

Da Chun suddenly remembered the six magic stones he had on him: "I have something that I think is a creation artifact. Does that count as an artifact?"

Tifa exclaimed excitedly, "Let me see it!"

Da Chun took out a string of magic stones and placed them on the table: "This is it. It has a lucky charm on it. This isn't your average lucky fishing rod or anything that clearly states the luck value. Back then, I just picked it up in the mine and immediately upgraded my mining skill, all the way to master level..."

Tifa was indeed stunned: "Such a powerful stone, it's undoubtedly a creation artifact!"

Holy crap, no wonder the imps in Hellmines were fighting tooth and nail for it back then!

Gauss immediately stepped forward and touched it, then pulled several wires from the spider and rubbed them all over the stone, like an electrician checking circuits. At the same time, the chart on the connected magic crystal screen rippled.

After all, it's Gauss! The legendary practical mathematician who didn't play number games; his mathematical research was all applicable to electrical equipment.

Gauss immediately asked, "Besides you, how many other people have touched this stone?"

"Huh?" Da Chun asked in surprise, "Is it that important?"

Gauss said, "The luck of this stone decreases with each subsequent touch. The first person to touch it gets the most luck, and the second person gets less. Give me a rough estimate of how many people have touched it, and I can calculate the decreasing pattern starting with upgrading to Master Miner, and then use this pattern to verify the lucky data model for the festival celebration."

Holy crap, this backdoor is even more outrageous than I imagined!? Using stones to predict holiday luck—are these two seemingly unrelated things governed by the same principle?

Da Chun asked, "I hit a bat with this stone in the sewer. Does that count as it touching it?"

Gauss asked, "Did you smash all six?"

Smash it all!

Gauss said, "Yes!"

Tifa laughed: "Is it that mutated bat from your Black Iron City that you still haven't caught?"

Da Chunhan said, "That's right!"

Gauss said in a deep voice, "That bat is very lucky!"

Da Chun suddenly realized, so this was the reason for Biliana's smooth growth? Next, Shirley would be the one touched the most; she was basically the one fiddling with it, even messing with the giant tree staff. Then, it was handed over to Bessabna Buchuanxi of Oak City for modification; if she modified it, the craftsmen would have to touch it…

Da Chun said, "Besides me, about four other people touched it. The last person to touch it was a craftsman. The number of craftsmen is uncertain. Now you've touched it too."

As Gauss calculated, he said, "As long as we can confirm that the first four people touched it, we can get a rough value. This kind of magic array connection is the work of a master craftsman. It should only have been touched by one person. Assuming that one person touched it, we can get a slightly more accurate value. The effect of my touching it..."

Soon, the spider's body began to flash with light.

Tifa exclaimed in delight, "I've calculated a rough value! Shall we verify it?"

Gauss nodded, pulled out the microphone from the table, and shouted, "Heiwa, replenish the power furnace with a truckload of high-purity divine stone crystal ore!"

Pfft! Da Chun almost choked.

But considering that this is a whole truckload, I decided to conduct an experiment to verify it.

Then the engine room rattled, and someone outside shouted, "It's installed!"

Gauss said in a deep voice, "Verify!"

The spider's body flashed with light again, and the entire power compartment roared deafeningly.

From outside came the Ugly Emperor's excited voice: "The laws of the heavens are reacting!"

Celia exclaimed in surprise, "Are the colors of the fireworks the colors of the festival?"

Gauss was excited: "Another carload, please!"

—Void Arena Notification: Congratulations! You have received the Arena Luck Blessing! Your Luck Value has been increased to a certain extent.

—Ayatnas 1.90Plus+ version notification: Congratulations! I have obtained the Holiday Lucky Celebration skill! Upgraded to version 1.99Plus+! Wishing you a happy holiday and lots of good luck!
