"Temps levé!"
The dancer in which they lived - the white swan Odette - let out a heavy, slow, and long roar, easily tearing through the barrier of the blizzard: the white feathers floating between heaven and earth all stopped for a moment.
The White Swan Odette is about to perform a dance: this is her warning.
After the rumbling sound, the originally noisy "calf area" suddenly became quiet - "temps levé" includes a leg lift, a toe tightening, a push on the ground and even a single-leg jump: this small dance step combination will take the over 100-meter-tall white swan Odette dozens of hours or even days to complete.
This symbolizes a brief interruption in the daily lives of the residents living inside the body of the white swan Odette: but the residents of the dance troupe's territory have long since adapted to this minor inconvenience; this is the rhythm of life that is unique to Siberia, just like dancing.
……
The timing of Yevgeny's arrival was perfect and precise - once the dancers began their dance steps, the hooks and ropes connecting each dancer for transportation would be retracted; it would be impossible to continue to move between the dancers.
Compared to Eugene, the White Swan Odette's movements undoubtedly seem slow - but that is due to the scale of its body.
Yevgeny already felt his body tilt slightly, and he had to take a step to the side to keep his balance:
Once the White Swan Odette fully raises her right leg, it will be difficult for Yevgeny to continue moving in the thigh area - all citizens will close their doors and secure themselves to their seats with belts and nylon ropes to prevent themselves from falling headfirst while continuing to work.
And when the dancer performs this movement, it will last for at least several hours.
Although when the dance begins, the number of citizens moving around in each area will decrease significantly; but going out during the dance is too suspicious even for Yevgeny.
Therefore, if Yevgeny intends to continue the action, the only window left is less than an hour.
……
This "train" from the Ural Mountains to Cape Dezhnev has been running for hundreds of years.
The plains of Siberia are covered with huge, deeply sunken footprints - over time, footprints as large as villages and towns have merged into basin-like depressions.
One after another, the "dancers" continue to go back and forth without stopping; from the Ural Mountains to Cape Dezhnev.
Its surface is mottled and the paint peels off; then new shells and paintings are added, layer upon layer.
No matter what happens, the dance never stops.
……
Unlike other parts of the world...
The residents of the Siberian Dance Company are even more unfamiliar with digital space: in fact, only these dancers who never stop can connect with the digital space - the reason for this is not known.
And the people living in their bodies use a more ancient, slower and less efficient way of information exchange.
For example: letters.
Messenger, or postman - this is Yevgeny's disguised identity in this operation: and this identity suits him very well.

Chapter 336 Paradise Collapse: Siberia (Part )
……
……
In the world of dance troupe, only the most agile, bravest and strongest people can become messengers - even so, messengers are still one of the professions with the highest mortality rate.
Although the equipment equipped for messengers has been constantly upgraded over the past few hundred years: but when flightless insects and ants want to move between the galloping footsteps of giants... then the risk will not disappear.
During this intermission, the black swan Odile replaced half of the 19 messengers - there were still eight infiltrators like Yevgeni, and six who arrived successfully. They were scattered in various areas of the body of the white swan Odette, responsible for finding information about the dancing shoes and the key.
A noble and sacred action - to strangle the war before it begins: so every infiltrator disguised as a messenger is determined to sacrifice himself.
But they didn't know that this action would be just a speck of dust among the major events that would happen in the world - and the action would be aborted before it officially began.
……
Yevgeny used the chain he carried with him to climb vertically - in just less than ten minutes, he had passed the entire calf area and reached the knee joint.
And it was the luck brought by this swiftness...that allowed him to witness the beginning of the destruction of the entire dance troupe.
……
boom!
There was a jolt: it was not Odette's loss of balance that caused her to lurch, but the swaying of the heavy objects around her.
In the observation window on his knees - through the fogged winter glass, Yevgeny saw a scene he had never imagined:
The one who had mutated was the black swan Odile.
The five fingers as huge as a truck were twisted into a curled up dough, and the left elbow was bent upside down and wrapped around the neck, as if trying to strangle himself; the right arm swept randomly to the left and right, and this high-rise-like cylinder swung along, creating a strong wind in the falling snow.
The black swan Odile's terrifyingly huge body fell forward in a weird and twisted posture - the huge size of its limbs made the falling speed seem particularly slow and sluggish.
This is impossible... impossible! Yevgeny threw himself against the transparent window, his cheek deformed from sticking too hard to the glass: body control is the core of every dancer, and the bottom layer of their system - Yevgeny can understand that the dancer was knocked over and fell by external force...
In the three wars that occurred in the dance troupe's past, three dancers retired in this way.
But she lost her balance and fell? Even the most outstanding black swan Odile?
The dance of the black swan Odile has lasted for hundreds of years: but it collapsed today - why?
……
boom!
Another sound.
Accompanied by a loud noise that drowned out the howling of the wind and snow:
But no matter how hard Yevgeni prayed and called out,
The black swan Odile finally landed with a bang; the air currents and even the blowing snow and wind stopped for a moment.
then:
The trunk, which was more than two hundred meters long, kept straightening and arching; the twisted limbs were like the edge of a spinning top, lashing in all directions.
These movements are undoubtedly not in the dancer's dance -
It seems as if it wants to express something with non-existent limbs: but this is impossible, the dancers only use their dance as a language of expression.
Thin but actually flood-like water jets gushed out from all parts of its body - just like blood jets gushing out of a human's skin when it breaks. That was the living water for the citizens in its body - only now, it also contained the citizens themselves.
……
Yevgeny realized: there could be no survivors in the body of the Black Swan Odelia... There was no need for an explosion. After an exercise of this intensity, the 260,500 people would have turned into blood and flesh.
"Devil! It's the Devil Rolfbart—"
This was the first guess that came into Yevgeni's mind: it was also a legend that had been passed down among Siberian dance troupes for hundreds of years, and it was also a prophecy.
When the dance's "finale" begins, the lone dancer "Devil King Rolfbart" who is independent of the dance troupe will join the other dancers. He may even replace the lead dancer:
The devil Rolf Bart is not a moving empty shell like other dancers, but a thorough weapon and destroyer: they will put an end to the dance troupe's hundreds of years of wandering in the midst of wild dancing.
Then, the people of Siberia will have a new opportunity: to rebuild their cities on the frozen ground without being trampled by dancers - a chance to break free from their parasitic identity and be reborn.
However, Prince Siegfried has not yet been awakened, so how can the "finale" begin and how can the devil Rolfbart return? Impossible!
……
Although his mind was still filled with chaotic thoughts, Yevgeni's well-trained body took the lead in taking action:
Before proving that the case of Black Swan Odella is an isolated one, the people in all the dancers' bodies must be evacuated first.
Although Yevgeny was originally an invader who came into the body of the White Swan Odette, but...all the people living in the Siberian Dance Troupe are well aware of one truth: only by relying on each other can they survive in this land.
……
But there is no real room for this selflessness and enthusiasm to be fully utilized.
boom!
With a tremor like an earthquake—
Yevgeni was hit against the wall by the violent inertia, and then pressed down by gravity. The impact on his head made him dizzy and nauseous. The scenery in his sight was upside down, and the blizzard outside the window was blowing from bottom to top. His ears were filled with explosions, screams, and the sound of liquid surging: the living water in the body of the white swan Odette was pouring back and washing the room.
But he still had a clear mind and knew what was happening now:
The white swan Odette is following in the footsteps of the black swan Odile - she is falling; perhaps she will never get up again.
This is the end of the world for all the people living in the Siberian Dance Troupe...
……
Dancers fell to the ground one after another, interpreting new dance styles with distorted postures. These were not the postures they were supposed to be in—they were trying to imitate the postures of demons expressing themselves with human limbs.
But neither Yevgeni nor the millions of other bodies that were squeezed and deformed could know this. Originally, it was a language that no one spoke in another corner of the world.
When the demons' language, along with Bai Shisheng's corpse, spread across every corner of the Internet, the millions of people living in their bodies - the physical isolation from the digital space could not protect them...
The Siberian dancers finally all fell in the wind and snow, and no more human sounds were heard from the corpses of these giants.

Chapter 337 Paradise Collapse: Indonesia
……
……
The animals in the pen were restless.
Compared to the hosts that carry their great power, the behemoths that are directly immersed in the waters of the Digital Ocean can undoubtedly feel the disturbances of the ocean currents more.
"The bomb went off."
In Jakarta's Gama Building, the Master of the Menagerie frowned in his top-floor suite.
As the owner of the entire Sumatran Beast Cave, the Master of the Beast Pen has long maintained a semi-online state, squeezing his consciousness into the narrow space between the real world and the digital space.
This does not mean that the Lord of the Stable enjoys this state, but because he has no choice.
He has long stopped sleeping - once he loses consciousness, "Taowu" and "Qiongqi" connected to the beast master will begin to move freely: by then, I am afraid that there will be tens of thousands of vegetative people who have lost their souls in the territory of the entire Java Group.
……
The Lord of the Beast Stables estimated the time: according to his plan, with the Lord of the Beast Stables's clone residing in Manager Koman's soul, plus the giant beast raised by Manager Koman himself - the size of this bomb should be enough to shatter the old world model stored by the Reconstructionists deep in the Manila network.
However, the bomb's equivalent was greater than he had imagined; the disturbance even reached the Indonesian network, alarming the behemoths that should have been calm.
……
"There is no point in the reconstruction faction continuing to exist..."
Among the dragons, there is a dispute between the so-called reconstructionists and the futurists.
But in fact, there are not many hibernating dragons who really yearn to rebuild the past. Most hibernating dragons want to explore their own possibilities in this world at will: those who hold such thoughts even include most of the hibernators in the reconstruction faction.
The reason why many hibernating dragons stand in the reconstruction camp is simply because... they always have to choose a side. The reason for the choice is not because of recognition of the concept, but because of consideration of interests.
The Master of the Stables was one of them.
But now, it seems that there is no need to continue wearing masks and pretending: when the reconstructionists are completely eliminated... the futurists will subdivide into new camps to fight each other; the endless open and covert struggles will continue. This is the nature of human beings that cannot be changed.
……
The Java Group - and Indonesia as a whole - cannot cut off its connection to the Internet: their dependence on digital space is even greater than that of Siam Buddha Pavilion.
In fact, more than 85% of Indonesians need to stay online for a long time. This is because their minds are split into two halves: the "disease" part is stored online, and only when they are online can they keep their souls intact...
Only then can you be considered a complete person.
……
The Lord of the Beast Stable is not a conspirator: he simply likes the world as it is now - the reason for this, perhaps, is the appetite given to him by "Taowu" and "Qiongqi"; and these two giant beasts are extremely, extremely picky eaters.
If the world changes again: they may become like the dinosaurs when the meteorite hit, or some other similar extinct creatures; eventually they will die due to the disappearance of food.
Now, he often feels hungry... The Lord of the Stable cannot imagine if he lives in a world without pain. Will he be ignited by the hunger in his stomach and burned to ashes?
