Chapter 1331: Chapter 586: You Can’t Fail, Right?

Near the Abyss, all beings quickly retreated to the several Sky Cities.

Subsequently, eleven Sky Cities also raced against time to ascend and drift away in the opposite direction of the Mirage Energy before it approached.

Previously, Mirage Creatures had not shown aggression toward the Fool because they had a common enemy in the mechanical beings, and the Mirage Tapir had intentionally controlled the actions of these associated creatures.

However, not long ago, after the mechanical beings fell towards the Fool, the Mirage Tapir immediately noticed this change and lifted the restrictions placed on the Mirage Creatures.

Therefore, the current attitude of Mirage Creatures towards the Fool is the same as with other beings; they would attack upon sight.

On the edge of Dawn City, several City Lords gathered.

Looking at the surging Mirage Energy below, Solomon couldn’t help but speak, "Had we known, wouldn’t it have been better to not let the mechanical beings retreat so soon and instead have them help us repel the Mirage Energy before leaving..."

Mu You shook his head: "It’s useless, curing the symptoms not the disease. What we need is not just to drive the Mirage Creatures out of the Star Spirit World, but to make the Mirage Tapir retreat, leave our secondary server’s birthplace outside Earth. Otherwise, players remaining on Earth would never be able to explore the Real World again.

"Moreover, having mechanical beings fight the Mirage Tapir would inevitably result in substantial losses of mechanical beings, which is akin to losing our vaccines, and does not align with our interests," Son of Heaven added.

"That makes sense..."

...

While the City Lords were discussing, below the Sky Cities, the Mirage Energy quickly spread over the Abyss.

The 2000 meter-wide Abyss entrance, equating to the rampant Mirage Energy, resembled a flood overtaking a rabbit hole, suddenly forming a vortex above the Abyss, like an inverted funnel, crazy swirling Mirage Energy pouring in.

The numerous shrimp soldiers and crab generals hidden within the Mirage Energy seemed to have discovered something novel at this moment, swarming towards the front of the Abyss, surrounding it, relaying and accelerating the transportation of Mirage Energy, seemingly eager to fill this large pit more quickly.

Mu You left the Sky City and floated above the Abyss to observe the progress of the Mirage Energy influx.

Due to the active acceleration by the Mirage Creatures, the pouring of Mirage Energy was faster than expected. According to the current pace, it would only take about one day for the Mirage Energy to reach the bottom of the Abyss.

By that time, Ava would be forced to divert energy to resist the infiltration of Mirage Energy, which would definitely affect vaccine production.

In other words, they needed to drive these Mirage Creatures out within a day.

After understanding the situation, Mu You immediately flew back to Dawn City and teleported back to the City Lord’s Castle.

Presently, only the Medicinal Plant Gatherer was in the City Lord’s Castle. After waiting for a moment at the castle, two beams of light appeared on the teleportation array ahead.

"I’m exhausted, finally back..."

"Being inside the Mirage Energy is no place for humans, the air in our own territory is much better..."

The forms of the Watchman and Ling Long appeared one after another, both looking travel-worn.

The Watchman found a nearby sofa, sat down, and started petting an orange cat, while Ling Long rushed to the table, grabbing the teapot and gulped down half a pot of tea.

"Is it done?" Mu You approached and asked.

"Of course! With the Mu Family army dispatched, it was easy as catching!" Ling Long gestured a victory sign, subsequently taking out five Forest Spirit Cores, placing them on the table.

"There you go, five cores, not one less, all retrieved."

"What about those replicated Secret Art Crystals?" Mu You asked. Completing the Secret Art Crystals was their ultimate goal.

"This kind of replicated crystal is one-time use, once integrated into the human body, it cannot be extracted, so those that have been used... we can’t retrieve them. However, we found the blueprints for these things."

The resulting blueprints revealed a design plan, "With these, we could theoretically mass produce as long as we have the materials."

"Oh? So mass production is possible?" Mu You was startled, if the Secret Art Crystals can be mass-produced, for the Fool collective, the significance was tremendous.

"Theoretically yes, but the materials required are somewhat unusual. The Secret Art Fandom Association has only discovered a few dozen pieces through so many years, all turned into forged crystals."

"What is needed?"

"A type of stone called ’Echo Stone,’" the Watchman said.

"Echo Stone..." Mu You pondered, unable to recall such a material in his memory.

"Echo Stone?" At that moment, the Lamp God suddenly appeared from the oil lamp, looking at the group in astonishment.

"Do you know what this is?" Mu You hastily asked.

"Of course, это is a material from the Real World, which under different structures, shows contrasting functions of attracting and repelling energy,"

Mu You and the Medicinal Plant Gatherer exchanged glances after hearing his description, the same term simultaneously emerging in their minds: semiconductor.
