Chapter 47 Carl's Attention
As Li Yao walked out of the palace, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.
Although he knew about Karl and Morgana's schemes before, he couldn't say it directly.
Even if he confronted Keisha and Hexi, they wouldn't believe him.
After all, without any evidence, why should I believe you?
But it's different now.
With the divination function of the Bagua compass, he essentially had an extra card in his hand.
Just now in the main hall, he had been subtly guiding the conversation, leading Keisha and He Xi toward Morgana and Karl's god-killing plan.
I thought I would have to spend a lot of time and effort, but to my surprise, He Xi jumped into the trap herself and got more and more excited as they talked. She even came up with the idea of "putting Keisha in a bottle".
Li Yao was secretly pleased, but he didn't show it on his face.
This can't be rushed; we have to take it slowly.
For now, it's enough to make them wary; we can guide them step by step later.
Then, he looked up at the Heavenly City, where everything was still in a mess, and the angels were busy repairing the damaged facilities.
Seeing this, Li Yao rolled up his sleeves and joined the large team repairing Tiancheng.
After all, he deserves half the credit for this.
……
After Li Yao left, Keisha leaned back on her throne and suddenly spoke:
"He Xi, what do you think of Xiao Yao's compass?"
He Xi crossed her arms, took a couple of steps, and frowned slightly.
"Like the quantum engine, it's unfathomable. This thing... seems to really lean towards metaphysics."
Keisha was silent for a moment, then slowly shook her head and said:
"It can only be said that we are still not strong enough, and our understanding of the universe is still limited."
Top cosmologists like them naturally know that there are many absurd things in the world that cannot be explained by current science.
But they were never idealists; they were pure materialists.
They would complain about the strange and bizarre things caused by Li Yao's quantum engine, but they never denied these phenomena that were beyond their comprehension.
But deep down, they always believed that it was just that they were not strong enough, not knowledgeable enough, and had limited understanding.
As long as they continue to learn and research, one day they will be able to understand its essence and explain those so-called unknowns in a scientific way.
Although they are called "gods" or "kings of gods," their definition of "god" is based on ideas and power, rather than idealism or supernatural beliefs.
They knew perfectly well from beginning to end that they were gods created by technology, not gods created by idealism.
Even the so-called "omnipotent god," as long as it appears in the universe, is a material existence that can be analyzed and understood by science.
If they can't understand it, it only means they lack the ability.
He Xi nodded, her tone resolute:
"Therefore, we have always insisted on understanding the world through scientific research."
Keisha glanced at her and suddenly asked:
"What about Karl?"
He Xi raised an eyebrow:
"Karl? That pervert is the same."
"Don't be fooled by his constant talk of the void and void gods; his true purpose is not to worship divine authority, but to promote his own doctrines and ideas."
"This pervert is one of the most disdainful scholars of the divine order in the entire known universe. Although he also enjoys the benefits brought by the divine order, he wants to overthrow it in his heart."
"He studied the void as a substance or scientific phenomenon that has not yet been fully analyzed, not as a belief."
At this point, He Xi chuckled softly:
"It's funny, really. His ideas are exactly the opposite of some of the old guys in Shenhe."
"No wonder those old guys all said he was a heretic."
Keisha's lips curled slightly, a hint of barely perceptible mockery in them:
"At least on this point, we are in agreement."
"What a pity."
He Xi sighed and said:
"This pervert's approach is different from ours."
"It's alright."
Keisha said calmly:
"Different paths lead to different destinations. Of course, if he dares to cross the line..."
She paused, then didn't continue.
But He Xi understood, and then she murmured:
"I wonder if that pervert will notice Tiancheng's abnormality this time."
……
Styx Galaxy, Death Song Academy.
Inside the empty and gloomy academy, Karl was standing in front of a huge holographic star map, observing something.
Suddenly, his fingers paused.
On the star map, in the region where the Angel Nebula is located, an extremely faint energy fluctuation flashed by.
If the large clock hadn't been constantly monitoring that area in real time, it would have been impossible to capture it.
Karl stared at the coordinates, remained silent for a few seconds, and then slowly spoke:
"Snow".
Snow, who had been waiting in the shadows, stepped forward and bowed slightly:
"My God, what are your commands?"
"What's been happening in Tiancheng lately?"
Snow thought for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"My God, all is well. There has been no large-scale mobilization of angels, and Keisha shows no sign of leaving the palace."
Carl didn't reply, but continued to stare at the nebula.
The light on the star chart is now calm and still, showing no signs of anything unusual.
Seeing his silence, Snow thought for a moment longer and then suddenly said:
"By the way, my God."
"A few days ago, the area around Tiancheng seemed to suddenly darken."
"The time was extremely short, less than a breath. At the time, I thought it was a malfunction of the observation equipment, so I didn't pay much attention to it."
Upon hearing this, Karl's eyes flickered slightly:
"Did it dim slightly?"
"Yes. And at that time, the light signal in the entire area disappeared."
"interesting."
Karl's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of interest.
"The Grand Clock also detected the same anomaly, except that instead of the light signal disappearing, the dark energy in that area suddenly fluctuated violently."
He turned around and looked at Snow.
"What do you think happened in Tiancheng?"
Snow answered cautiously:
"Your subordinate dares not speculate. However... something that could affect the entire star field is no small matter."
"Um."
Karl nodded, looked back at the star map, and said calmly:
"It's very likely related to that angel, Li Yao."
Snow was taken aback upon hearing this:
"That disciple of the Heavenly King?"
"When he was on Earth, I felt there was something about him that I couldn't quite put my finger on."
Karl tapped his finger lightly on the star map, zooming in on the image of the Celestial Court of Merlo.
"Looking at flowers through the clouds, one cannot see them clearly. But now, it seems he has done something great in Tiancheng, so great that even the Great Clock can only record its aftershocks."
Snow looked worried:
"My God, should we increase surveillance of the Heavenly City?"
"No need. Keisha is very alert; any unnecessary small movements will only alert her."
Karl withdrew his hand and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Besides, that's not our focus right now."
"Yes……"
Snow hesitated for a moment, then asked:
"My God, what should we do about Li Yao...?"
Karl thought for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"He's just a newcomer who's only reached the third generation; he can't cause any real trouble. The real people we need to be wary of are the two people behind him."
Snow nodded, understanding.
"but."
Karl suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming more meaningful.
"We can let Liang Bing stir up trouble on Blue Star first, which will naturally distract the angels. When the time is right, we'll see what surprises Li Yao can bring us."
"May God bear witness."
Snow bowed his head respectfully.
