Chapter 694: Expected Answer

Despite the shocking experience they had just experienced, they understood that now was not the time to retreat.

"Keep going." Li Yang said, "No matter what is waiting for us ahead, we have to face it."

Ella nodded: "I will always be with you."

The voice of [Database] sounded again:

[Next target location has been locked]

[Location: Heterogeneous energy vortex in the void area]

[Task: Collect abnormal data attracted by the vortex]

[Task progress: 12%]

The white light enveloped the two again, and instantly teleported them to the destination.

At this moment, countless Li Yangs who had reached cooperation with [Database] were jumping around in this virtual space created by the system in the same way, collecting chaotic data.

However, Li Yang had no way of knowing.

He was seeking the truth, finding a way to repair the system and restore everything to its original state.

But why should those who were not the original body obey the guidance of [Database] and do this meaningless work for them?

Could it be that... [Database] said the same thing to all of them, and showed the same past?

All Li Yangs believed that they were the true body.

This thought came out of nowhere, and instantly made Li Yang feel a chill.

But... he couldn't think too much.

When the light faded, the two were teleported into an endless void.

In front of them was a huge energy vortex, flashing all kinds of strange lights.

"This is..." Ella said in surprise, "I have never seen such a celestial phenomenon..."

Li Yang carefully observed the vortex, holding his chin and slowly speaking: "This should not be a celestial body, but more like some kind of... some kind of void."

[Analysis results: The integrity of the space here is suspected to be destroyed, and the original data space has been replaced by a void composed of unknown things]

[Warning: Random contact may cause danger, please proceed with caution]

"Replaced by the void..." Li Yang thought, "Does it mean that something destroyed the data here?"

"Is this also something that [Heart] can do?"

Ella was a little worried: "This place looks dangerous... Should we go in and take a look?"

Li Yang held his chin and muttered to himself:

"Since it was caused by [Heart], there is still a possibility of recovery."

"Anyway, since we are here, wouldn't it be a loss if we don't take a closer look?"

Ella took a deep breath and nodded: "I understand, let's go together."

The two looked at each other, and then slowly floated towards the void.

As the distance got closer, they all felt a strong gravitational force at the same time.

"This feeling..."

"It's a bit like when the cabin window is broken, the negative pressure is generated and people are squeezed out."

"Apart from the fact that the data space is composed of virtual data..."

"After the originally empty universe is torn apart, what will extend outward?"

Li Yang muttered to himself, as if he was asking and answering himself.

Ella was silent for a moment and did not answer.

She just looked at the gradually distorted nothingness in front of her and found something strange.

They seemed to be getting closer and closer to the nothingness?

But they obviously paid attention to the distance...

Wait, that's not right!

It's not that they are getting closer, but that the nothingness is getting bigger and bigger!

As soon as Ella discovered this, she opened her mouth to remind Li Yang.

But the next moment, it seemed as if it had wisdom.

The huge nothingness suddenly expanded several times, and instantly swallowed the two people who reacted into it!

In an instant, the world was distorted in front of them, and countless bizarre pictures flashed by.

They felt their bodies stretched and compressed, undergoing unimaginable changes.

After an unknown amount of time, when everything calmed down, Li Yang and Ella found themselves standing in a strange space.

There was no up, down, left, or right, and there were suspended... glass fragments everywhere.

Some of the fragments showed familiar scenes, while others were strange scenes they had never seen before.

"Where...is this place?" Ella asked in confusion.

Li Yang looked around, looking at this extremely limited space, muttering to himself:

"Outside the space... is another layer of space."

"A box in a box, right?"

"[Database], is this something you made?"

As if in response to Li Yang's statement, a familiar voice sounded in his mind again-

[Analyzing the space...]

[Confirmed: The current position is a multi-dimensional space gap]

[A large amount of abnormal data has been detected and is being collected...]

Li Yang looked at the floating fragments around him: "These fragments are like traces left by the crushed universe."

"Are these planets... or universes swallowed by this nothingness?"

"This feeling is really familiar... My [World Devourer·Big Mouth Flower] seems to be able to do similar things."

He reached out and touched a fragment, and suddenly a dizziness came over him.

The scene in front of him changed, and Li Yang found himself standing on a strange planet.

The sky was a strange purple, and strange-shaped plants grew on the ground.

"This is..." Li Yang muttered to himself.

[Warning: It is detected that the host consciousness enters a dissociated state]

[Suggestion: Please leave as soon as possible to avoid getting lost]

After hearing the warning from [Database], Li Yang immediately pulled out his consciousness.

Then he opened his eyes suddenly and found that he was still standing there, and Ella was looking at him worriedly.

"Li Yang, what happened just now?" Ella asked, "You suddenly froze."

Li Yang shook his head: "By contacting these fragments, it seems that you can send your consciousness back to that time node..."

"This feeling...is different from [Big Mouth Flower]."

"To be able to have this level of impact, there is no doubt that only the [Heart] can do it."

Ella looked at the surrounding fragments in surprise: "So, each fragment is a complete world?"

"That's natural." Li Yang nodded, "To be able to destroy so many universes in an instant, I think [Heart] must not be simple this time."

[Analysis results: The data existing here is the end of all things: Tombstone Devourer]

[Tip: The space swallowed up by this legendary plant will all be stored in the cracks of space, waiting to be digested]

[Warning: Staying in the space gap for a long time may cause confusion]

Li Yang frowned: "I understand, then find where [the heart] is as soon as possible, recover it, and leave as soon as possible."

"But if I want to find that thing quickly, I have no clue right now..."

"[Database], can't you give me some tips?"

[Database] responded——

[Judgment: The system can only determine the general location of the data, but cannot completely identify its location and form... Otherwise, these chaotic data will not be called "chaos"]
