Magic High School.

However, this piece produced an unexpected chemical reaction. It broke out of the script set by the world consciousness and is now even capable of directly confronting the world consciousness.

Although he was dragged into the realm woven by the world's consciousness the moment he stepped inside, this wasn't Li Ge's problem; Abaddon himself was also caught in the trap. Someone already stronger than you, whether intentionally or unintentionally plotting against you, makes escape virtually impossible.

“So, what do you want to do?” Abaddon asked.

He had already seen through Li Ge's life—a life where he was relegated to the background, an NPC providing motivation for the "protagonists." However, as the son of the "protagonist," he might be able to land a good role in the second part of this script.

For example, becoming the protagonist of the second part, or becoming the second male lead in the main group of the second part, or becoming a cold and useless person who can self-destruct at any time.

However, it is clear that Li Ge has deviated from the script and sailed into the unknown, far beyond what the world consciousness had anticipated.

"Save the world," the world consciousness said.

Abaddon couldn't see the face, but he could sense that Abaddon was smiling.

"It's not just about saving myself; I also want to save other worlds that might be affected. You know, in my calculations and simulations, everyone who obtains that sealing ring will die in the most tragic way, and then their lives and power will become the breeding ground for that evil god," the world consciousness said.

"But later, in my simulation, the evil god's form underwent its final transformation, a form I was completely unaware of. I then realized it was too late. So I calculated every possible way to prevent that future from happening."

Abaddon looked at the people about to launch their hot air balloons in the sky and said, "Those people, are they your puppets?"

“They are not puppets; they are my children, and a part of me,” the World Consciousness retorted. “As a scholar, you should understand the circumstances that led to the birth of the World Consciousness.”

"A miracle born from the collective consciousness of all native intelligent beings, combined with the spiritual particles of the world itself," Abaddon slowly uttered the concept of world consciousness.

World consciousness is not a life form that is easily born; they themselves are a miracle.

Just as the fairy continent lacks a world consciousness because fairies are not native creatures, even if they have lived in this world for a very long time, it would still take countless years, and only if the number of fairies is sufficient and they do not become extinct, for there to be even a slight chance that a unified world consciousness could emerge.

“Yes, each of them is like a neuron of mine. They are like my cells, and I am like this ‘person’ born from their cluster. Would you let every single one of your neurons get infected and die without knowing why?” the World Consciousness said.

Abaddon shook his head.

"I think so too." The World Consciousness grinned. In reality, it didn't have a mouth, just a strange shape with a large ball of light on its head, but at this moment, it seemed to have deliberately simulated a mouth.

"So anyone who tries to harm the little life inside me, I'll fight them to the death. Whether it's to protect them or to protect myself, I'll do it." He seemed to be smiling, but Abaddon couldn't laugh.

The next moment, the world consciousness showed Abaddon the results of the simulation.

Those were products, twisted to resemble monsters from the Cthulhu Mythos.

The first figure was a celestial body that seemed to have been swallowed by shadows. It was grotesque and twisted, with countless shadows transforming into tentacles that swept over the surrounding planets and attempted to devour other planets, moons, and all other celestial bodies into its belly.

The second figure resembled a jellyfish drifting in a sea of ​​stars. But these jellyfish, like something indescribable in the deep sea, were segmented one after another, densely packed, forming a celestial-like…centipede?

The third figure, which seemed to be merely a mother nest, actually made Abaddon feel that it was relatively normal among these strange creatures. However, wherever the mother nest went, everything around it seemed to turn into a domain, and then within that domain, twisted monsters, like insects and divine blood monstrosities, were squeezed out one by one like pimples.

Each of them possessed the strength of a fifth-tier being. They flew out of the starry sky, heading towards the unknown distance, and then brought the entire universe into a distorted and chaotic catastrophe.

At that moment, Abaddon fell silent.

The last monster's figure stood out awkwardly among the group of monsters who had lost SAN. He resembled a statue wrapped in countless bandages, which seemed to be the tools he used to seal himself away, and he slept quietly within the statue, motionless.

Only the endlessly spinning Heavenly Revelation Wheel above his head remained as proof of his identity…

“Li Ge…” Looking at this monster with a Falun on its head, how could Abaddon not recognize that this was Li Ge?

And that's a state that Li Ge only enters after activating the Sea God's Domain, a state that allows him to adapt to all harm done to him.

Then, he looked at the figures of each monster in front of him. In an instant, he seemed to feel relieved.

"These are four futures I simulated. In the first future, I devoured the shadow and then completely transformed myself into a life form with black hole-like characteristics that controls the shadow."

"In the second future, it devoured an unknown liquid, and thus transformed into a jellyfish wandering in the sea of ​​stars, connecting every life-bearing planet it devoured. In both of these futures, it will become a star-devouring behemoth."

"And the third future is that of the Queen Mother, who has fully practiced the ultimate in reproduction, truly accepting everything about reproduction, and ascending to become the God of Reproduction. All the areas she comes into contact with will become her domains, and in these domains, the strongest natural disasters in the entire universe will be born continuously, just like the natural disasters that once ravaged the world."

This future might be the most terrifying one. Abaddon watched as life forms rapidly emerged within the domain, monsters seemingly a fusion of divine blood and insect swarms, combining the two most supreme powers of life and reproduction, and the harm they would cause…

Each one of them is a world-destroying entity.

"As for this final future, it is the most beautiful future that I have anchored." The world's consciousness seemed to smile. It looked at the being sealed by bandages, who resembled the "bloodthirsty monster" in Li Ge's eyes.

He was wrapped in countless bandages, with only the Dharma wheel above his head occasionally making a crisp "click" sound.

"He sealed the evil god with his own body, and then, knowing he couldn't withstand it, he summoned the power of another evil god. Then, within this power that could adapt to everything, he actually achieved a perfect balance," the world consciousness said.

"The pollution was constantly eroding him, and he was constantly analyzing and adapting to it. Although the pollution completely distorted his body and obliterated his consciousness and thoughts, turning him into a monster with only the power to adapt, as time went by and as adaptation was gradually achieved, eventually, the master of this life and reproduction would be completely adapted to and utterly obliterated."

“What emerges from this cocoon will be a perfect monster, devoid of its own consciousness, and adapted to everything,” the World Consciousness said.

"It neither attacks nor defends; it merely passively adapts to everything in the world. Do you think such a harmless monster might be the best outcome?" The world's consciousness slowly spoke, uttering the best future it had calculated and anchored.

"Don't you think this is the most harmless future?" the world consciousness retorted.

All the disasters have been resolved. What was once just a "prop" made casually has now become our trump card, an indispensable tool for reaching the best possible future.

All that's needed is to sacrifice that child who was casually stuffed into a string of unknown spiritual particles in the subspace.

The sacrifice of one person could save the world, even prevent a global catastrophe. This wonderful future is the only one with a happy ending, calculated over nine hundred times.

Abaddon's pupils constricted instantly. He instantly understood the world's consciousness's intention: to feed Li Ge to that evil god, thus giving birth to a harmless monster—a monster without consciousness or soul, yet capable of adapting to everything!

Such a monster cannot even be described as harmless; rather, it is a beneficial monster. It will become the world's most useful barrier and tool, for any intruder will have to face this monster that is never-killable and can adapt infinitely, much like a planet's white blood cells.

This monster could even easily adapt to the lifespan limit of the God of Order, becoming a harmless tool that could also function as a white blood cell for eternity.

The only one who needs to be sacrificed is a tiny, insignificant individual among billions of lives.

Isn't sacrificing one person to save everyone a manifestation of order and justice?

All of this planning, and even all the anomalies in the world's consciousness before, were for this purpose!

However, Abaddon immediately launched an attack with zero frames, roaring, "Expand your domain!"

Your plan is excellent, but I refuse!

I, Abaddon, love to say no to arrogant people!

Even though he was just a guy I'd known for less than a year and who was quite unreliable, but...

"I'm his teacher!" Abaddon roared at the world consciousness.

And what teacher wouldn't protect their students?

The domain, which launched its attack in a split second (0.02 seconds) with zero frames, unfolded and struck.

However, the World Consciousness showed no sign of tension, and simply said calmly, "As you know, a domain is merely a simulation of the world's power."

“But what lies before you is a true, golden age of the world.” The giant sphere of light even had the leisure to ramble on. Then, seemingly in a playful mood, it spoke.

"Let's play around like you guys, expand the domain!"

Chapter 304 I Want to Be an Astronaut

At the same time, as Li Ge watched the hot air balloon gradually take shape, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura, like the fluctuations that could be emitted when a domain is deployed.

"Domain?" Li Ge sensed the direction with slight doubt, then wondered if he had sensed it wrong. After all, sensing ability was not his strong point. On the contrary, his strength was his eyesight, but there was nothing unusual in his field of vision at the moment.

Li Ge's first suspicion was that Xiao Ye and the others, who came from the same space as him but at a different time, had activated their domains, which was why he could vaguely sense that trace of domain aura.

However, Li Ge quickly shifted his focus to the hot air balloon. He also sent over the exact time he would be able to fly into the sky and make contact with the barrier via the stone slab.

At this moment, Li Ge was completely unaware that he had become an innocent victim, having been thoroughly framed. He still believed he was going through the familiar procedures of an investigation.

Since the person behind the scenes wants him to come into contact with the barrier and see what the world outside is like, then he'll go and see. So far, Li Ge hasn't actually encountered anyone he can't defeat even with all his strength. In the worst-case scenario, doesn't he still have powerful backers?

So Li Ge chose to go straight for A.

After one more simple test, the hot air balloon was filled with air. At the same time, protective suits, oxygen cylinders, and other supplies were prepared, along with spirit particles enchanted to the hot air balloon.

This is the brilliant solution that allows hot air balloons to fly out of space: it uses lift to provide power in the first half of the flight, but retains a portion of the lift and releases it all at once at the last moment, giving the hot air balloon a force that allows it to escape the gravity of a planet.

After the amazing wisdom provided an incredibly detailed, foolproof drawing process, Li Ge successfully drew the picture in just two tries.

Next, it was time to take to the sky.

The balloon could only carry four people, and it was best not to exceed three. Therefore, Albion was the first to choose not to board the balloon. After all, his levitation spell could be released without contact; he only needed to keep an eye on the balloon's position and catch it below when the time came.

If they were in the sky, he probably wouldn't have been able to catch them so well.

Next were the two underage children. The aunt and Mayor Ronan were arranged to stay behind under the pretext of taking care of Xiao Lige.

Actually, Rean was the first one who wanted to go up, and then his mother Laura also chose to go with him.

Ultimately, the people who went to the sky were identified: Li Ge, who now called himself "Hakimi," and his parents when they were young.

"Albion, our safety is in your hands!" Rean said to his friend with a smile.

"Don't worry, even in the worst-case scenario, I can save you all," Albion said with a smile. He was now incredibly confident, after all, his levitation spell would at least prevent anyone from dying from a fall.

He was confident he could save everyone, even if the plane crashed rapidly from the sky.

As Li Ge watched the group heading towards the sky, he couldn't help but feel speechless.

A family should be together all the time, right?

However, this was something he already knew. In this incident, only his parents died, and naturally, they were the two who had acted the most recklessly.

However, Li Ge also suddenly recalled some long-forgotten memories. What were the feelings of those people in his previous life who, without any knowledge of aerospace, were the first to fly into the sky, or even the first to think about leaving the atmosphere?

Perhaps it was excitement, or perhaps it was cursing?

At this moment, Li Ge might have felt a little empathy.

The three of them boarded the hot air balloon. At that moment, the gas in the tank had ignited, giving the balloon lift. Li Ge silently began recording the coordinates of this location on the system's map, so that if they deviated from their intended direction, the system could find their correct location using these coordinates.

Then, the parents put on their simple protective suits. They didn't need to wear them themselves, and they understood that they belonged to a special group of people like Albion, born with "spellcasting" abilities.

So, above the basket of the hot air balloon were two people wearing protective suits and secured with safety ropes, and Li Ge, who was almost completely unprotected.

"Get ready, the ropes will be untied in one minute!" Albion's voice came from below.

Rean gave a thumbs up. He seemed to have been prepared all along, and even when this dream of flying into the sky was realized in this way, he felt incredibly calm.

Perhaps at this point, he had already prepared for the worst.

"Then begin releasing the ropes!" Albion said, untying the ropes binding the balloon. In the next instant, the immense lift propelled the hot air balloon completely into the sky.

At this moment, the world witnessed its first manned spaceflight. It wasn't particularly sophisticated or grand; rather, this seemingly childish hot air balloon suddenly rose into the sky, its silhouette growing smaller and smaller until it disappeared completely.

They all felt a mix of emotions: a sense of loss, confusion, and a touch of worry. But at this moment, the people on the balloon were undoubtedly excited.

In particular, they watched from above as the people and buildings below shrank little by little, until they disappeared from sight. Then even the reinforced concrete structures gradually became smaller than a fingernail. They only stopped watching when the clouds began to obscure their view and they could no longer see the scene below.

By the time we arrived, the temperature was already close to zero degrees Celsius.
