Chapter 840: Chapter 839: So Angry to the Point of Silence
Over here, Fang Zheng packed up the entire Forerunner warship manufacturing plant along with the Ship of Inheritance, while over there, the left-behind Missionary was naturally driven mad with rage. He wasn’t a fool; upon seeing that piece of paper, he naturally understood what it meant — someone had come to this planet and took his warship while he wasn’t paying attention!!
Of course, the Missionary was also utterly baffled, not understanding what dreadful luck had befallen him, leading him to stand there dazed in front of the huge pit, not knowing what to do. In heaven’s name, the Missionary was considered a famed figure among the Forerunners, having led armies against the Ancient Humans and the Hongmo in the past, establishing great feats for the Forerunners. If his thoughts weren’t so extreme, he wouldn’t have ended up imprisoned.
But after so many years of warfare, the Missionary had never encountered such a mysterious disappearance of a warship right from his own base! What on earth was going on?
This clearly shows that the Forerunner must never have aired ’Into Science’.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
"...Leave here; it’s no longer safe."
The Missionary was decisive; although he didn’t know exactly what was happening, one thing was certain — this planet had been discovered by the enemy. Although the other side only took his warship this time, who knew if they would charge in with a large army next?
At this point, the Missionary had only one last recourse!
"We’re heading to the Wisdom Domain!"
The Wisdom Domain was the most extraordinary creation of the Pioneers. To put it simply, the Wisdom Domain encompassed all knowledge and wisdom from time immemorial of the universe, and the Wisdom Domain itself was sentient. After the Forerunners discovered the Wisdom Domain, they used it to store their knowledge and memories. However, most of the Wisdom Domain in the Milky Way was destroyed when the Aura activated, and only a small portion remained known to a select few among the Forerunners.
Fortunately, the Missionary was among the very few.
As long as he could reach the Wisdom Domain, he could regain the powers sealed by the Forerunners, and by then... he would rise again!!
"Wisdom Domain?"
However, what the Missionary didn’t expect was that just as he had this thought, the Ratziel in Fang Zheng’s hand also revealed this information. At the same time, Ratziel presented what the Wisdom Domain was and whatever was inside like an encyclopedic full-scale view to Fang Zheng.
"The creation of the Pioneers?"
After reading these descriptions, Fang Zheng’s eyes lit up with excitement — so, while he’s been grave robbing here, there’s a library containing the complete knowledge of the Forerunners in this galaxy?
Of course, excitement aside, Fang Zheng remained cautious, as it specifically mentioned two characteristics about the Wisdom Domain.
Firstly, it is a collection of "collective intelligence".
Secondly, the Wisdom Domain has self-awareness.
This changes things.
Fang Zheng knew that, according to many stories, entities with collective intelligence were not easy to deal with, often setting traps for you to fall into. For example, you want to master the Wisdom Domain? Sure, but you must become part of the collective intelligence and lose your self-awareness, leaving only "you all"... well, that’s just how the trope goes.
Not to mention, the fact that the Wisdom Domain has self-awareness makes it even more terrifying. An entity of collective consciousness that possesses self-awareness — who knows what it might be thinking.
After much thought, Fang Zheng decided to abandon this endeavor, as he had nearly exhausted his Dimensional Points to recover the Forerunner manufacturing plant and the Ship of Inheritance. The Wisdom Domain is evidently more advanced than the Forerunner’s manufacturing plant, and clearly out of his reach. Additionally, Little Angel’s abilities showed limitations in the face of such high-tech civilizations.
Originally, Fang Zheng thought Nymph’s information manipulation was all-powerful, but now it was clear there were limits. He wouldn’t send Little Angel into such danger.
But he couldn’t just let the Missionary head to the Wisdom Domain, could he? Who knew what else he might do if he gets there?
However, this didn’t phase Fang Zheng.
"Ratziel!"
With Fang Zheng’s call, the Ratziel appeared in his hand promptly, automatically opening. The blank pages quickly revealed the Missionary’s current actions.
"...The Missionary, along with the remaining Star Alliance Fleet, departed from ’Venus’, heading toward the location of the Wisdom Domain. They opened the teleportation space, about to enter the cosmic passage..."
Seeing this, Fang Zheng smiled slightly. He raised his right hand, and soon a quill appeared in it. Then, Fang Zheng continued writing.
"...However, the unexpected happened. As they entered the cosmic passage, the Missionary and his group suddenly encountered a once-in-a-millennium particle storm..."
"Boom...!!"
While in the jump space, the Missionary suddenly felt a tremor through his body. The next moment, the originally normal jump space before him began to transform into vibrant colors like the Northern Lights. For some writers, this spectacle might be poetic, but in the Missionary’s eyes, it was hair-raising!
Of course, Forerunners don’t have hair.
This signified jump failure!
"What exactly happened? Intelligent Servant! Report immediately!!"
Although Fang Zheng took the Ship of Inheritance and the Forerunner manufacturing plant, there was naturally not just one warship in the Forerunner’s Shield World. The Missionary managed to pull another one from storage — while not as good as the Ship of Inheritance, it was still a warship.
He wasn’t about to ride a little Star Alliance junk ship; that would be just embarrassing.
Upon hearing the Missionary’s anger, the artificial intelligence Intelligent Servant on this Forerunner warship immediately responded.
"Report, unstable sudden particle storm detected, jump route stability has dropped to thirty-five percent!"
"Interrupt the jump, leave the orbit immediately!"
Upon hearing Intelligent Servant’s report, the Missionary was shocked. A drop in jump route stability was deadly, at best leaving you in an uncharted location, at worst tearing you to pieces in chaotic space.
Physics doesn’t care about wealth or status. Even if the Pioneers came and encountered space turbulence, they’d be doomed. The Missionary hurriedly interrupted the jump and rushed through the Daimon. Almost instantaneously as he exited the space, with a dazzling and colorful particle explosion behind him, the space where the Missionary had been immediately burst apart, consuming about a third of the trailing Star Alliance warship, leaving it unresponsive.
What a bunch of worthless lowlifes!
Viciously cursing in his heart, the Missionary promptly issued a command.
"Intelligent Servant, immediately determine our location!"
"...Warning, no corresponding Star Map in the current database, preliminary judgment indicates we have entered an unknown Star Domain. Awaiting further command from the Commander."
"..."
I’m so furious, I’m about to shut down!!!
