Divine Beast Creator

"It’s not quite normal for this thing to appear here."

Veronia spoke up, obviously knowing that Feng Yuan also noticed the problem, but it was curious about how the other party viewed this situation. Glancing at Veronia, Feng Yuan lightly tossed the iron rod in his hand and said,

"There are many possibilities; this facility might originally be the work of Slime-like creatures. Alternatively, there might have been a test subject rebellion here."

Recalling the Slime-like creatures from literature and games, Feng Yuan felt that the possibility of a rebellion was not low, given that these creatures in those literary works and games had abilities that were far from simple.

Considering their possible strength, a rebellion could easily overturn the original research institution. But of course, Feng Yuan wasn’t sure about the exact situation, since these things could basically be asserted as Chaos Technology.

The greatest characteristic of Chaos Technology is that it doesn’t need to be practical; as long as it looks good on the surface, it’s enough. This often leads to common sense losing its function in regions where Chaos Technology is prevalent.

"These writings are particularly special, born from the words of this world, yet they have their own evolution. However, the system interface is quite strange."

While Feng Yuan was contemplating, Veronia searched around. Upon seeing the computer at the front desk, it curiously attempted to start it. As expected, this computer with only a screen, keyboard, and mouse simply went ahead and got started, even entering the main control interface.

Curious, Qi Chen and others gathered around, as War Qichen observed the screen and mouse and questioned,

"These things don’t have any data or power transmission lines. Where’s the main unit?"

The technology of the War timeline is similar to that of the Main World, so everyone has quite a similar understanding of computers. However, this thing barely considered a computer was obviously missing its most crucial component—the main unit.

Even for what’s called a cloud system, at least there should be a line connecting the devices. Yet this thing wasn’t like that; just a few components were placed on the service desk. At first glance, there was no problem, but upon closer inspection, one might think it’s purely decorative.

The reality was that this seemingly decorative object could truly operate, which was rather odd.

"System interface? Visitor Registration System?"

"It seems so. Although these writings cannot be decoded using the Ultimate Move, looking at the text layout, it’s probably something similar."

Veronia muttered as it examined the information on the screen. It couldn’t help but find that none of its translation-type Ultimate Moves were effective on these writings. But considering the space’s unique nature, it seemed normal.

Feng Yuan, curious, abandoned pondering why Slime-like creatures appeared here and moved closer to examine the computer.

"Indeed, it’s a front desk registration system, but these writings... Dream language... It’s much like the conjecture; this place is related to illusory spaces."

Unlike Veronia, Feng Yuan instantly recognized these writings and understood the content above.

"Visitor registration, but... it doesn’t adhere to reality; at least the real visitor registration wouldn’t be this chaotic."

Feng Yuan scrutinized and casually pointed out some issues. After a brief moment, having reviewed the visit registration, Feng Yuan rubbed his chin and said,

"I can be sure that the previous controller of this research institute should have been human, or rather, it was derived from the dreams of human researchers. After all, ordinary people may not comprehend so many details."

Explaining why he judged this way, Feng Yuan stated that the matter was not complicated—the visitor registration indeed had issues, but it meticulously recorded every visitor’s intentions, thoughts, and related research documentation.

Yes, complete research materials were documented as visitors came seeking assistance. However, Feng Yuan was well aware that these so-called documents were likely useless and part of special Chaos Technology.

But even so, it can be affirmed that the person who sketched this dream should be a researcher. If not a professional, not only would this baffling research documentation registration be overlooked, but even certain details wouldn’t be noted.

If this is a product of human dreams, why has it appeared here? Is the deep layer a certain individual’s dream?

No, impossible. The Qi Realm’s ability is too strong and doesn’t seem like anything a single entity can occupy. If viewed from the Mirror Space... no, in the context of the Outer and Inner World, this here is the Inner World, and simultaneously, this place is the manifestation of people’s Soul Projection in the Main World.

It seems quite possible.

As he pondered, Feng Yuan finally aligned these clues. From the start, he had speculated that this was related to mind mapping. Now, upon careful thought, if it’s an Outer and Inner World scenario and the Inner World is a fallen distorted mindspace, it completely aligns with the traits of the Qi Realm.

But then, what about the pollution? Why does the Spirit Beast’s world appear here?

Though the Qi Realm’s nature has been affirmed, many questions remain unanswered. However, Feng Yuan isn’t in a rush. This is only the Deep Layer of the Qi Realm, not the deepest part.

At least, the existence of the world’s barrier surely hides something more special.

World barrier—it might not only limit their entry deeper, but also restrict deeper things from escaping, which Feng Yuan suddenly thought of. But this sudden idea he hasn’t shared with anyone yet, as it’s merely a stray whim of his.

"Hmmph, you can actually read the text here?"

Veronia, surprised, looked at Feng Yuan. It hadn’t thought the other could understand these unique writings, considering in its view, strength does not directly correlate with Universal Knowledge.

"The interpretation of dream language has specialized materials. These writings don’t fall outside the realm of dream language transformation, just not able to directly use translation-type Ultimate Moves."

Feng Yuan smiled and said, as long as one recognizes it as dream language, even Dou Yanlan can find a way to interpret it. After all, this world is the spirit beasts’ realm, where miraculous methods are much more convenient than learning purely through toil.

"If it’s dream language, special Ultimate Moves can decode it, though considering we don’t understand this world’s language, we’ll also need to embed a language translation Ultimate Move thereafter."

Dou Yanlan voiced to confirm Feng Yuan’s words, explaining that the solution is not complex. It’s just that Veronia hadn’t earlier recognized these were dream language writings.

Since this place resembles the Otherworld, dream language and unknown Otherworld languages can easily be confused. Coupled with the unique nature of the Qi Realm, it’s understandable why Veronia was mistaken.

"Let’s go. Since there’s a Visitor Registration System, I think there should be other systems inside, like experimental record reports, which, given the features of these Chaos Technologies, should not be easily damaged."

Sweeping a glance at the Slime-like remains, Feng Yuan uncertainly said, while all signs pointed to them being the remains of rebellious creatures, without concrete evidence, Feng Yuan couldn’t guarantee the truth may not be different.

The passage from the hall to other areas bears clear combat traces, with some corridors entirely collapsed. Based on these battle signs, Feng Yuan could determine that a rebellion likely erupted here.

But why would such an event occur? Knowing it’s connected with dreams, it inevitably faces restrictions inherent in dream-related rules.

Even unconsciously, these restrictions still let the creator of the dream inherently grasp certain special Authority rights.

Only beings like Emperor Savidi can disregard Authority pressure and act with impunity. Even though Slime-like creatures can be powerful, rarely do they have such strength that it’s feasible to break through all constraints by sheer Barbaric Force.

So, did the dream’s owner themselves lead the rebellion?

That’s impossible, isn’t it? Why would the opponent do such a thing with this mindset—seeking chaos when it’s too peaceful? No, the issue is, who actually crafted this dream, and why has it wound up here?

The more he thought, the more Feng Yuan felt surrounded by questions, as Dou Yanlan, observing the area with some doubts, asked,

"There seems to have been a rebellion here; could there be some special clues left behind?"

"Left behind?"

Noticing Dou Yanlan’s choice of words, Feng Yuan was intrigued and looked in the direction she indicated, only to realize after some observing, there was a very well-hidden terminal device.

Is there any useful clue here?

With doubts, Feng Yuan stepped forward and attempted to activate this uniquely shaped terminal device.
