However, the executive member outside the door said very seriously, "Professor Abaddon, the school needs your expertise. Our elite team, led by the vice minister of the executive department, has lost contact in another world. This world was identified in previous investigations as one of the sources of the potion and is the hometown of a student contaminated by the potion. However, several hours have passed since the elite team entered, and there has been no news or contact. It is considered a loss of contact, and it is very likely that the world's consciousness is involved!"
The executive member outside the door quickly described the seriousness of the situation and hurriedly said, "Therefore, we need your domain to forcibly resist the world's consciousness. Otherwise, we can only resort to attacking the planet from the outside, but this would cause a lot of collateral damage, and might even accidentally injure our classmates without our knowledge. So we have no choice but to come to you."
Abaddon fell silent for a moment. The next instant, he said, "Then let's go. Lead the way!"
Seeing Abaddon seemingly about to get busy, Li Ge realized that the school's higher-ups also worked very hard, and missions were never smooth sailing. He decided to leave first, not wanting to disturb this extraordinary Abaddon on his mission to rescue people.
"Wait, why are you running away? Come with me!" Abaddon said directly when he saw Li Ge trying to slip away.
Li Ge: "?"
“Wait a minute, Professor Abaddon, this junior is a freshman, right? We’re going to fight against the world’s consciousness and a former cardinal of the Order of God! You should understand that even a cardinal is an enemy that requires a whole elite squad to treat with utmost care, let alone the world’s consciousness that controls the planet…”
“I know, stop talking nonsense. Take him with you. He has already mastered the rudimentary form of the domain and is the person who has gone the furthest in the field of domains in this era besides me.” Abaddon stated his attitude directly.
"Okay... alright..." The senior from the executive department was stunned. He hadn't expected that this junior already had the rudiments of a domain. Just how crazy was he to make such rapid progress in the field of domains?
Abaddon glared at Li Ge, the little rascal, and said directly, "Come with me. Isn't your goal in controlling the domain to fight against the world's consciousness? Isn't this a perfect target?"
"Don't worry, I'll protect you from the front. You'll just be going to broaden your horizons and learn how to fight against the world's consciousness." He continued, "I'll only demonstrate once!"
Li Ge sighed. He felt that it was too early for him to go against fate.
However, since Abaddon had already said all that, he wanted to see how exactly to fight against the world consciousness, which was the so-called Heavenly Dao or the Will of Heaven.
"Walk together!"
……
At this moment, the clock tower, which served as the base for the executive department and the vice principal's office, was gradually descending into chaos.
"To reiterate, attempt to contact the adjutant's squad failed! The nine hundred and eleventh attempt to contact has failed!" the communications officer reported.
“Try to communicate again, and when will Professor Abaddon arrive?” the Minister of Executive Affairs shouted.
"coming!"
The portal opened, and Professor Abaddon, dressed in a long trench coat, flicked the hem of his cloak. His gold-rimmed monocle seemed to reflect starlight off the clock tower. He tilted his head slightly, his arrogance, haughtiness, and confidence overflowing, utterly captivating.
If Li Ge hadn't known that just three minutes ago he was a person in pajamas, with a head as messy as a bird's nest, who even needed to wear a monocle to sleep, and who couldn't wait to get the Red Stone...
He was almost fooled by the appearance of this amazing man.
"Give me the details of the situation, and at the same time, make contact with that old geezer Moriarty as soon as possible. While I'm battling the world's consciousness, he needs to get the person out of there quickly," Abaddon said.
"I'm here. Stop talking nonsense and get to the rescue. Every second wasted makes it easier for something to go wrong." Another rift, seemingly tearing through the void, appeared. The vice principal, dressed in a blood-red suit with a white rose pinned to his chest, was quite eye-catching.
Li Ge quietly asked a senior student in the executive department, "Do the professor and the vice principal have a grudge? Why is there such a strong tension between them?"
The senior student from the executive department also quietly came over and said, "Didn't you know? Professor Abaddon spent a considerable amount of time studying at a mental hospital when he was young."
"I know that."
"The vice principal was the head of the medical department and the director of the mental hospital at the time..." a senior student from the executive department whispered to Li Ge.
Li Ge: "..."
So it turns out they're natural enemies—a mental patient and a mental hospital director. What a tragic couple...
Meanwhile, while the argument raged on the other side, a rescue plan was already being devised. The vice principal looked at Li Ge and asked, "Why did you bring this child here?"
“He has already formed the rudimentary domain,” Abaddon said directly without further explanation.
The vice-principal's pupils contracted. He had been so busy these past few days with the matter of the cardinal who had defected from the Church of Order that he hadn't paid any attention to this.
So quickly, the domain has already taken shape? It's only been one God Sunday, which is just over seven days.
“Besides, if I can’t hold on, this kid’s nascent domain can serve as a last resort,” Abaddon said. “And isn’t this kid also going to fight against the world’s consciousness? Let him experience it first.”
"Alright." This time, the vice principal didn't scold her, but when he looked at Li Ge, he still reminded her, "Don't be reckless, just stay behind us old folks."
"Yes!" Li Ge realized that the situation might be very urgent, so she had to try her best not to cause trouble. In the end, she would most likely just be a bystander watching from afar, the kind who would just applaud at the end.
"Prioritize forcibly tearing open a passage to that world using a large-scale spatial technique. In that instant, Abaddon will deploy his domain to temporarily resist the world's consciousness's prying eyes and erosion. This time won't be long; we need to contact Juno and all the members of the elite teams within this time. That's the plan. Do you understand?" The vice-principal stated the complete plan for the last time.
"Understood!" the others responded, including Li Ge.
"The elite squad's Noble Phantasm hasn't been retrieved yet, so they're still alive. We won't abandon any classmate who still has a chance to live. Therefore, the plan is called 'Rescue Plan,' execute it immediately!"
"Yes!"
A large number of people immediately began setting up the portal. They were to create a teleportation array that could be directly and stably connected to that world, and would not be disconnected even in the face of collisions with the world's consciousness.
This requires a large number of people to carry out.
Then, both the communications team and the rescue team must head to the rescue as quickly as possible. Even though Professor Abaddon has progressed the furthest in terms of domain expertise, it is ultimately too much for a mortal to use a domain to fight against the world's consciousness.
If someone had told Li Ge before he came to the academy that a human could use his own domain to fight against the will of Heaven, Li Ge would have really thought that person was crazy.
This is simply unbelievable.
However, in a very short time, a massive portal, stable even when facing collisions of world consciousnesses, was set up.
Abaddon chuckled and patted Li Ge on the shoulder, saying, "Now stand behind me and watch carefully. This is how you fight against the world's consciousness. I'll only demonstrate it once!"
His lips curled into a wide grin, revealing an air of unwavering confidence. The next instant, he stepped into the portal, instantly feeling the crushing force of the entire world's consciousness. That immense power, seemingly capable of utterly seeing through him and simultaneously kicking him out of the portal, was like a small boat adrift in a raging storm.
But even on this rickety little boat, Abaddon smiled, a wide grin spreading across his face, and slowly placed his hand on his monocle.
The next instant, a beam of light erupted from beneath his monocle. Within this realm of world consciousness, he spoke clearly, word by word:
"Expand your domain!"
Chapter 140 Domain Expansion
The next moment, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the domain instantly unfolded and was released from Abaddon's body.
A terrifying colossal eye tore through the sky behind him, staring intently at the planet ahead. The space that expanded outwards seemed to collide with something. The domain, extending from within, invaded the limitations imposed by the world's consciousness. The collision of spiritual energy created a distorted and bizarre psionic storm around him.
However, even the domain that was once seemingly capable of completely eroding the world, with the giant eye at its core and billions of books as its support, was completely suppressed around Abaddon.
Then, it was as if worlds were canceling each other out. Things in the Abaddon Realm seemed to be gradually worn down in the collisions. The endless corridors and billions of books seemed to be eliminated little by little.
This is a true clash of fields!
Li Ge was behind the portal, looking out at the other side of the world through it.
A planet where crimson and green hues intertwine, yet at this moment, Abaddon seems to be fighting against the entire world single-handedly.
"One hundred and ten minutes, that's my limit, hurry up!" he shouted directly at the people behind him.
Without hesitation, the rescue team, led by the vice principal, also passed through the portal in an instant and disappeared into the space where the domains collided.
Although he didn't understand the underlying principles, Li Ge had a general idea of the current situation.
If we compare world consciousness to a human body, then Abaddon is like the sharpest and most terrifying dagger piercing its heart, forcing the other party to use all its attention and strength to deal with itself.
The rescue team is like other stealthy viruses, sneaking in while the body's immune system is mostly focused on dealing with physical damage.
Although this analogy is not quite appropriate, it is roughly the only way to describe Li Ge's current level of control over the domain.
"They really think highly of me. The moment I walked in, they gave me magic suppression, silence, spatial blocking, mental attacks, and so on... They almost dried my trench coat and made it ripped..." Abaddon muttered to Li Ge after he realized things had stabilized.
Li Ge: "..."
"Dude, you can activate your domain even with all these debuffs stacked up?" Li Ge was also shocked. This was the first time he had ever known that the World Consciousness had such a powerful ability to weaken others, especially the magic suppression and silence effects. This was a mage's bane, the kind that would make anyone who was targeted look stupid.
In this situation, how is it possible for this guy to even expand his domain?
"This is why the domain technique is called the ultimate technique. Other techniques are developed by guiding spiritual particles from the outside world, but the domain is different. Its power comes from our minds and our souls."
"As long as I allow my mental world to act on myself in advance, then no matter what the situation, I can activate my inherent domain and ignore any weakening or control. This is the ultimate technique!"
Abaddon's mouth was agape; he seemed to be laughing, laughing wildly.
It also seems like she wanted to teach Li Ge something, or maybe she was just pretending...
Li Ge didn't know, but now, his entire domain was reacting violently, like water poured into a hot pot.
The giant eye in the sky slowly narrowed; this was the core of the Realm of Truth. And the billions of grimoires centered on it, like moths drawn to a flame, rushed toward the other "realm" that was colliding with it not far away.
Or rather, from the perspective of world consciousness, the entire range of influence of the planet's gravity is within its domain!
To some extent, could planetary consciousness be a domain sorcerer capable of covering the entire world?
Could a domain technique be the consciousness of a planet within a limited range?
At this moment, Li Ge seemed to understand why he used a domain to fight against the world consciousness, because they were actually of the same kind and origin in some aspects. After all, judging from Li Ge's own Red Stone Domain, his domain could also be considered a kind of "small world".
This approach of using the "world" to fight against the world is just so appealing!
Who exactly invented the concept of a domain? To some extent, it's about transforming oneself into a creator god-like world consciousness, allowing one's inner world to become a fantasy world of one's own!
And through techniques, they forcibly erode their own world in reverse and influence the real world!
The person who invented this technique must have created this field inspired by the consciousness of the world; they were truly a genius!
Having witnessed firsthand the clash between the field and the world, Li Ge was filled with excitement at this moment.
In this realm of truth of Abaddon, he suddenly understood why this god-like man often went mad. The exhilarating feeling of seeing through the truth in an instant was simply intoxicating!
At the same time, he was extremely relieved and extremely fearful.
Back in his hometown, he was surprised that the world's consciousness hadn't subjected him to a combination of magic suppression, silence, and spatial confinement. If he had actually taken that hit back then, he probably would have been finished.
Not to mention themselves, even the elites of the executive department, the adjutant squad, almost collapsed after being hit by this, and now they need almost all of the school's rescue efforts.
This may explain why the vice-principal and his colleagues had to learn the relevant fields in order to return to their hometown and confront the world's consciousness.
This power seems to have been born to fight against the world's consciousness and against that god-like power, a technique that allows the weak to overcome the strong!
This is what Abaddon meant when he said that only the most extreme and abstract madmen could master the ultimate technique!
"So, once my domain is fully mastered, I can forcibly apply all sorts of methods to those who are pulled into my domain, such as magic suppression, silence, sealing, spatial blockade, etc." Li Ge asked.
"Congratulations, you guessed right! Even without the domain being fully developed, just the rudimentary form of your domain can achieve these functions once it is completely chosen by your domain! The only difference is that your rudimentary domain will have difficulty capturing others."
"Buzz!"
The collision of the domains intensified further, and Li Ge even saw blood vessels appear on the giant eye in the void rift above Abaddon's head. The storm whipped his hair, made the chain of his monocle lash his face, and made his trench coat flutter like a banner.
But he did not retreat a single step. This realm of truth, which had once deeply shocked Li Ge, was still like a lone boat in the raging waves, yet it stood firmly within it, unmoved by wind and rain.
Watching that figure recede into the distance, Li Ge thought to herself that she would probably have to confront the fate of her hometown in the same way...
To confront the world with territory.
