Chapter 464: Countermeasures
The entire universe was completely swallowed up by those black tentacle-like substances, and only a piece of dead nothingness remained in the once shining galaxy.
"Is this...is this the scene after being completely eroded by the [epidemic]?" Oniliyi couldn't hide his horror and muttered to himself.
T nodded and said in a rather heavy tone: "Yes, when that thing gets enough time to develop in a universe, it will eventually completely swallow up all the matter and energy in it."
"This universe has completely reached death and has become a hunting ground for [epidemics]."
"녦I'm afraid..." Aphrodite couldn't help but shuddered, "If Hephaestus hadn't been stopped, our world would have ended up like this..."
"That's why we need to master the method of fighting the 'epidemic' as soon as possible." Artemis looked firmly, "I can feel... There is indeed something in the center of the Ark that can effectively fight the epidemic, and can control that , we will surely find a way to reverse all this."
Li Yang stared at the black void, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He had witnessed many cruel scenes in his own world, but the complete destruction before him still shocked him.
"T, you brought us here to show us the consequences of [the epidemic]?" He turned around and asked.
"Not only that." T shook his head, "I also want you to see some of the details."
She stretched out her palm, and a translucent operating interface appeared in front of the cluster of black tentacles.
Numbers and codes flow rapidly on it, eventually condensing a partial perspective.
On the surface of the black material, I could vaguely see some extremely hard translucent luminous structures that were resisting tenaciously and trying hard to retain their existence.
"See? These are the remnants of other virtual universes here."
T spoke slowly and explained,
"Although we have been affected by the 'epidemic' to such an extent, similar to your world, many worlds still have at least part of the original law."
"But such resistance cannot exist forever."
"Time... is just time, it can delay the reproduction of [epidemic]."
"But as long as there is enough time, it will eventually find a way to tear apart the barriers of other universes, penetrate deep into them, and swallow everything."
Li Yang remained silent, just staring at the structure that was difficult to see with the naked eye.
Then, he nodded heavily:
"Yeah...I can see it."
"If you want to help your own universe regain freedom... you can only start by getting rid of the [disease]."
"Then try your best~" Artemis showed her smiling expression again and said,
"For the sake of our homeland, and to protect this world from the ravages of [epidemic], let us learn to control the rules here!"
"We are gods above. Isn't it natural for gods to save the world?"
Others joked about it, but the people on the side did not express any objection.
They all nodded in agreement, full of determination.
Only then did T reveal a smile.
She nodded to Li Yang and his party, and then led everyone back to the core area of "Ark".
"From now on, I will try my best to create opportunities for you so that you can gradually adapt to the rules here."
"I believe that as long as you explore properly, one day you will be able to conquer the root cause of the 'epidemic'!"
In the core area of "Ark", Li Yang and others were successively arranged by T to their respective residential areas.
This place is like a 께-shaped city, with all facilities and abundant daily necessities.
According to T's explanation, all the resources here are continuously produced through the self-repair and replication system of "Ark".
After a few days of adapting, T began to arrange some special "training" for them.
She connected several people to some simulated environments, allowing them to experience and try to control the basic rules of the universe.
Initially there were some simple physical laws, such as gravity, thermodynamics, etc., followed by more complex concepts of space and time, including various interactions between time and space, and even other concepts related to "infinity".
Unlike a limited virtual universe.
In the world of 늌, the universe is constantly expanding towards 늌, and resources will continue to grow with it...
From a civilizational perspective, the entire universe is "infinite" when placed on an infinitely extending scale of time and space.
Li Yang and others explored the simulated environment bit by bit and gradually mastered the secrets of this knowledge.
With the guidance of "Ark" AI, their progress was much faster than before.
Beings like Artemis Onirii will soon be able to exert their own will in the simulation and manipulate the rules of the environment at will.
Physical gods like Demeter have also made great progress through continuous practice.
In this way, time flows minute by minute.
A month passed almost in the blink of an eye.
During this period, T also took them back to the universe that was devoured by the epidemic several times, allowing them to try to intervene against this unintelligent [epidemic] that could rely on 녤 to act.
땤With initial control over the rules, Li Yang finally saw many details that T had never said in this epidemic-ravaged universe.
The countless winding black tentacles, each of which is composed of billions of nearly nonexistent dimensions, form this horrifying scene on a macro scale.
The remaining structures of the universe's source that still persist still exist in the cracks of these dimensions, resisting the erosion of the plague on its rules...
Through this observation, Li Yang and others first captured the rhythm and pattern of the plague's growth, and also found some clues to prevent its spread.
So, they fed back these findings to the AI core of T's "Ark".
The mechanical brain that almost coordinated all the knowledge of this universe conducted an in-depth analysis of this information and actually came to a conclusion-
The key point is also [law].
Or [concept], or [rule].
If some key laws can be modified, the plague can be prevented from spreading at the dimensional level of these source rules.
Of course, this is only a stopgap measure. To completely cure it, it is necessary to find the origin of the plague and eradicate it.
But for now, this is already a major breakthrough.
In order to achieve more efficient changes to the rules, T handed over part of the core system to Li Yang and others for free control.
With the assistance of AI, they were able to expand their consciousness unprecedentedly and partially integrate it into the system of "Ark".
In this way, Artemis and other completely divine beings began to interfere, while Li Yang and Demeter performed the most basic rule control on the other side of the core area.
The first attempt to fight against [Epidemic] kicked off.
