Chapter 1127: Chapter 1127: Order Disturbs the Dream (Big Chapter for Monthly Pass)
A hazy chaos enveloped everything within sight.
He Ao gazed around in bewilderment; he saw nothing but an expanse of void and pitch darkness.
He was suspended in this darkness, reaching out his hand, trying to find something to grasp onto in his surroundings.
But all he touched was an empty void.
Then, after what felt like an eternity adrift in this nothingness, he finally saw a faint light igniting in the distance.
And the moment he caught sight of that dim light, his form crossed the endless darkness and appeared before the light.
Surging flames filled his pupils—a colossal fireball, burning intensely.
Massive stars, some gaseous, some solid, were revolving around this giant fireball in an orderly fashion.
In that instant, He Ao suddenly realized where he was; he lifted his head, looking around him.
More and more diffuse points of light appeared in his field of view, his gaze as if piercing through boundless time and space, seeing countless dense specks of starlight all at once.
Planets orbited their stars, and massive stars formed even more colossal galaxies, each star moving in its own way around the galaxy’s center of mass.
Exquisite nebulae constructed this majestic universe, this endless and massive spacetime continuum.
In this infinite space-time, every star, every material being, followed its most fundamental laws of motion.
Everything was so harmoniously natural, so orderly and systematic.
The entire universe seemed to unfold within He Ao’s view, even the lines that constituted the World Bottom Layer appeared to operate in some sequence of order.
Heaven and earth merged as one, the sun and moon traced their paths.
The ’essence’ of the entire world seemed to open up to his sight in this moment.
The eternal order, the immense order, constructed all the order in the world.
And then, the essence of this order opened its embrace to him.
He hesitated for a moment, then tentatively touched the unfolded edge at the outer fringe.
Talent Sequences 105: Distributor... Talent Sequences 177: Synergist... Talent Sequences 249: Carpenter
As fragments of information emerged in his mind, that intense order suddenly erupted, fully unfolding before He Ao and enveloping him.
In that instant, He Ao closed his eyes, and his whole body fell backwards, suddenly collapsing.
Accompanied by a violent sensation of weightlessness, as the essence of the world fully unfolded before him, He Ao abruptly opened his eyes.
"Ah! Huff—"
Like a fish freshly pulled from the water, he quickly sat up straight in his chair, gasping for air.
Fine sweat seeped from his cheeks, dripping down his slightly disheveled hair onto the desk.
After catching his breath a few more times, he raised his hand, pulled out a tissue from the side, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked around.
He was still in the office of the Federation Bureau of Investigation’s Director in Minte City; nothing had changed, except that a bright light was now shining in from the outside, brightening the somewhat dim office.
Was that a dream just now? Did I fall asleep?
He Ao sat up straight, leaned back in his office chair, feeling the clamminess and dampness of the sweat on his back under the cold weather, and wiped the sweat off his face with the tissue.
The ’dream’ felt so vivid.
For a moment, he felt as if he was about to completely immerse himself in the sequences of order that constituted the World Bottom Layer, becoming part of that order.
He took a deep breath, looked out of the office window with a heavy sigh.
The pitch-black veil of night had completely receded, and a fiery red sun was rising from the horizon.
Watching the sun rise slowly, he suddenly felt that the trajectory of its movement was so ’ordered,’ so ’beautiful.’
He took a deep breath, shook his head, and dispelled the thoughts in his mind.
He withdrew his gaze, looked at the clean desk in front of him, and began to recall the dream he just had.
Although he had thought of taking a rest last night, he hadn’t planned on actually falling asleep.
It seemed he had ’naturally’ fallen asleep during his contemplation.
And then he had that ’dream.’
From the content of the dream, all seemed to be related to Order.
Moreover, He Ao vaguely realized that had he truly immersed himself in that boundless Order in the end, he might have gained innumerable knowledge related to Order.
But he should also be assimilated by the Order, becoming a fervent fanatic of the Order.
So, what exactly is this?
At this moment, He Ao recalled many mystical knowledge related to the Church, and a term emerged in his mind.
’Divine Inspiration’
This is the revelation given by the Divine Being to the Believers, representing the direction guided by the Divine Being.
The God of Order tends to favor bestowing ’Divine Inspiration’; many Believers and even Non-believers of the Order Church claim to have received Divine Inspiration from the God of Order.
The God of Order gave a wave of ’Divine Inspiration’ to someone whom the Order Church has labeled a ’Heretic’?
He Ao rubbed his forehead.
This is a bit too stimulating.
Was there something about him, or ’Mr. Suote’, that could catch the eye of the God of Order?
Why didn’t Divine Inspiration come when ’Mr. Suote’ believed in the Order originally, but it came after he stopped believing in it?
Is the God of Order playing some kind of abstract prank?
However, the ’gift’ of a Divine Being is not so easy to take, to accept this ’Divine Inspiration’ means to follow the direction pointed out by the God of Order and be assimilated by it, which is not a good thing.
After a brief contemplation, He Ao glanced at the silent office around him, his muscles tensed, and activated Super Memory, slowly saying, "God of Order?"
The office remained quiet, without any great gaze coming through the endless spacetime, nor any contamination emerging from the void.
"God of Order?"
He Ao tried calling out again, "God of Order?"
Still, nothing happened around him.
It seems that this friend’s gaze did not cast this way.
Directly invoking a Divine Being is an act of sacrilege, if the God of Order was paying attention here, there would probably be contamination or even a small-scale Divine Punishment cast this way.
It seems that the ’Divine Inspiration’ just now was not hand-delivered by a Divine Being.
Could it be that the God of Order has set up an automatic distribution program, giving Divine Inspiration to anyone who meets the criteria, believer or not?
Considering the spread of Divine Inspiration from the God of Order as understood by ’Mr. Suote’.
It’s indeed possible... after all, Divine Inspiration from the God of Order is quite commonplace.
But it should not be possible for those completely unrelated to the God of Order to receive ’Divine Inspiration’, although there are many who claimed to have received it, most of them had interactions with the Church of the God of Order before obtaining Divine Inspiration, or they were already Order Believers.
There should be some criteria in this condition that judges the degree of relation to the Mysticism of the God of Order.
However, according to ’Divine Inspiration’ stories once heard by ’Mr. Suote’.
It seems that the vast majority of people who received Divine Inspiration only experienced it on a very marginal level, waking up after a very short period of time.
Most of these people have a chaotic memory of the Divine Inspiration, barely recalling it, but their fervor for the Order still exists.
Only a few high-ranking clerics seem to have gained more knowledge through Divine Inspiration.
But the content of their Divine Inspiration is something ’Mr. Suote’ doesn’t know at all; though ’Mr. Suote’ eventually became a core member of the Church, he wasn’t very concerned with Church affairs and didn’t inquire in detail from those senior clerics about these matters.
However, it seems that this Divine Inspiration may also be related to factors like the strength of spirit and soul of the person receiving it?
The stronger one is, the more they can see further content?
It’s just unclear at what level of Divine Inspiration one like him would be classified.
He Ao let his mind wander for a moment, then shook his head.
The only useful information he got from the Divine Inspiration was the names of a few Talent Sequences and fragmented information.
He couldn’t explore deeper, or he would be completely assimilated by the Order.
Among those three Talent Sequences, He Ao already knew well about ’Distributor’, and he had known the name of ’Synergizer’ early on, but ’Carpenter’ was the first time he heard of the Talent Sequence.
However, he had heard the name ’Carpenter’ before.
The sealed item 009-2, sealed in the Main World’s Underground Palace, claims to come from ’Carpenter’.
It seems this is the ’name’ of the Angel from the path that ’Mr. Suote’ has followed, and this path should be strongly related to the God of Order as well.
Besides the names of a few Talent Sequences, He Ao also gained a small part of what seems to be recipe information for ’Synergizer’.
[···Pseudo-Wolf’s Eye···Tree Heart···Half-Person’s Blood···Silver Mallow Grass···]
Unfortunately, there is no complete formula.
The God of Order is still not generous enough, not giving anything extra for free, which isn’t great.
However, since the God of Order could send him Divine Inspiration, it proves that his connection with the God of Order through mysticism has reached a certain level.
Perhaps this could be leveraged.
He Ao reeled his thoughts back in, rubbed his forehead, and buried these ideas deep in his heart.
Then he glanced at the tissue he had just used to wipe his face.
It was already stained with a layer of blood.
He rubbed his cheek and then lifted his clothes, removing the blood-stained bandage inside.
The wound on his cheek had already disappeared, and the gruesome wound underneath the bandage had also turned into flat skin.
Even the scar that had pierced through his chest had completely closed up.
While he ’slept’, his injuries had fully recovered.
Each time a new Copy World begins and he rests for the first time, it allows him to rapidly heal his wounds and reset his health bar.
After this Copy World started, He Ao also noticed that even without resting, this ’recovery’ was still slowly progressing, albeit very slowly, barely better than nothing.
However, in previous Copy Worlds, He Ao hadn’t noticed these changes; he wondered if it was due to the system’s recent upgrade.
Free from the pain of his injuries, He Ao felt as though he had shed a great burden and was now much lighter.
He looked up at the blazing sun rising outside the window; the night had finally ended, and a new day had ultimately arrived.
No alarms sounded, and Eve didn’t issue any warnings.
No one attacked the Federal Bureau of Investigation Building.
It seemed that consciously leaking his situation of only having a dozen people around had its benefits. The two major consortia had relaxed their vigilance to some extent, willing to spend time negotiating with Mayor Lokte to haggle over prices.
This granted He Ao a ’peaceful night’.
He Ao activated the surveillance around the Federal Bureau of Investigation Building.
At this moment, the streets outside seemed to be completely sealed off. Members of the two major consortia’s security companies, dressed in various small Mechas, had locked down every corner, even sealing off the exits of the underground parking garage.
The consortia indeed mobilized more people to block the entrances and exits.
Unfortunately, the first group of four agents had already gone into Stealth before the complete lockdown.
But as long as He Ao is still in this building, the two major consortia would probably not be in a hurry.
The decision-maker on the other side seemed to be a seasoned person, not making hasty advances while in a position of advantage but instead playing steadily, maintaining and controlling the advantageous situation, waiting for the final ’Mercenary Corps to enter the city’ to determine the outcome with one stroke.
Buzz—
Just then, He Ao’s bracelet vibrated slightly, receiving a message from an unknown number.
The content of the message was simple.
[A board member of West Iron Minte Subsidiary is en route to the Note Intelligence Building, seemingly to hold a joint meeting with Note Intelligence.
—Borek]
Borek is the leader of the first group, the red-haired man.
Before they left, He Ao had privately shared his contact details with them.
The moment he saw this message, He Ao was slightly startled, his gaze shifted sideways to glance at the surveillance monitors, deep in thought.
Ding-ding-ding—
At this time, his bracelet began to ring, it was a call from Hel.
"Mr. Suote, we seem to have found the place you mentioned."
He Ao reached for the scabbard on the desk.
—Ten minutes later—
Underground Parking Lot, Level -2, Storage Room
He Ao pushed open the door, and accompanied by the lingering musty smell and dust of the control area, he looked at Hel and another agent standing in the storage room.
Originally, the storage room should have been filled with things, but most of them had been cleared to the parking lot outside. However, the various fragments and marks left by long-term storage still indicated its former clutter.
"Mr. Suote,"
Hel looked at He Ao as he walked in and pointed at the iron shelf in the back of the storage room, speaking quickly, "That shelf is fixed to the wall; we can’t move it."
Then he paused, feeling that, "Based on the information you provided, given the pattern of lost supplies and manpower, I think that ’secret passage’ is behind this shelf. But we’ve looked for a long time and haven’t found a way to open it."
"Hmm."
He Ao nodded lightly and walked up to the shelf.
In fact, it wasn’t information he had provided, but rather information from Eve.
After Eve took over all the permissions of the Minte City Federal Bureau of Investigation, He Ao asked her to sort out nearly two decades worth of data.
The purpose of the instruction was to get Eve more acquainted with the security systems, as most of the security forces of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Building had been built within the last twenty years, starting with the predecessor of Queke’s predecessor.
That Minte City FBI bureau chief seemed to be very concerned about his own safety, and had specially allocated funds to initiate the enhancement of the building’s security systems.
The subsequent two bureau chiefs, including Queke, had continued to strengthen the system based on his approach.
Understanding the construction ideas and processes all along would help Eve master all the details of the security system and better leverage its potential.
Eve did a good job of collecting and summarizing the data and then gave He Ao a ’surprise’.
She discovered that twenty years ago, that bureau chief had secretly diverted some robots to develop something near area E of the underground parking lot.
After simulation calculations, Eve believed it was likely a secret passage.
However, it seems that the secret passage was either nearing completion or had just been completed when the bureau chief was urgently transferred away.
His successor did not carry out a handover with him, and he did not seem to take the initiative to remind the next in line, which resulted in the successor not discovering the secret passage and ceasing any further development.
From the documentation Queke left behind, he probably didn’t find the passage either.
He Ao also checked the internal records of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The bureau chief who built the secret passage was later transferred to Ains, then went to Twilight City, and disappeared during a wilderness operation.
No related documentation was left behind, and data had either been erased from the robots involved in the construction or they had been scrapped.
That is to say, probably no one in the world knew of the existence of this secret passage anymore.
Of course, Eve wasn’t clear about where the passage exactly was, but was only able to estimate a general area.
Therefore, He Ao gave the data to Hel to find the passage.
He Ao placed his hand on the back of the shelf and gently knocked; the back panel emitted a hollow sound.
But it was not clear whether the hollowness was between the panel and the wall or if there was a space behind the wall itself.
He Ao lifted his hand and let his Divine Sense seep into it.
Soon, he discovered a cavity behind the wall.
This wall was indeed a ’door’.
On confirming that this was a door, He Ao also found the controller for this ’door’ on the edge, hidden in a corner of the shelf.
He shifted his gaze back and looked towards the corner.
Hel immediately tore off the cover in the corner, revealing the controller inside.
This was not a formal controller but rather some kind of temporary verification system that seemed to require identity verification.
The issue wasn’t with verifying identity, but He Ao found that the controller wasn’t connected to the building’s power supply, and the backup power had long been exhausted.
"I’ll go find a power source."
Seeing this, Hel quickly said.
"No need."
He Ao shook his head.
Even if they could restart the controller, identity verification would still be required.
He raised his hand, letting his Divine Sense seep into the door, finding the ’lock core’ component of the door.
Then he directly manipulated the lock core with his Divine Sense, and with a light ’click’, a narrow crack appeared in the wall.
He extended his hand, his fingers inserted into the crack in the wall, and then he forcefully pulled.
Boom—
The entire wall was forcibly opened.
