Live stream: Bragging to an orca, exposed by netizens

"The tamper... has awakened!"

The sound of 07, for the first time, lost the smoothness that a machine should have, and trembled slightly.

Evelyn and Hannah had just breathed a sigh of relief when their hearts immediately jumped again.

"What do you mean?"

Hannah's voice changed, becoming sharp. "What's a 'knocker'? And what does 'awakened' mean?"

No one answered her. The image on the main screen said it all.

At the very center of the three-dimensional Earth model, where the Earth's core is located, a dark red dot of light appeared.

The moment it appeared, all the equipment in the command center emitted a "humming" sound.

The lights are flashing.

The data stream was interrupted for 0.1 seconds before being overwritten by more chaotic new data.

Boom!

A loud bang.

The sound didn't come from the speakers, but resounded directly in the depths of everyone's mind.

Followed by.

Thump! Thump! Thump-thump-thump!

The red dot representing the striker, like a heart, began to beat violently.

With each pulsation, a dark red energy wave spreads from the Earth's core toward the Earth's crust.

"What is it doing?" Evelyn's pupils shrank to pinpoints. "It's releasing high-frequency energy pulses."

Hannah's hands flew across the console, trying to sift through the jumbled data for useful information.

"The pulse frequency... is resonating with the energy field of the scalpel!"

"It...it's interfering with us!"

"Damn it! The scalpel's trajectory has veered off course! It's deviated by 0.03 degrees! And it's getting worse!"

Hannah suddenly raised her head, her face completely pale.

"Mr. Shen! Based on this deviation rate, in nine hours, the impact point will be more than 1,000 kilometers away from Tartarus Prison!"

"It won't hit the prison..."

"It will crash directly into the Mid-Atlantic Ridge! The resulting submarine volcanic eruptions will completely alter the global climate! This would be far more severe than the consequences of plate tectonics!"

……

Thule Air Base.

General Weber had just picked up a cup of coffee.

Before it was even brought to his mouth, the entire base, along with the Greenland ice sheet beneath his feet, began to vibrate up and down at a strange frequency.

It's a pulsating sensation, like standing on the chest of a huge, living creature.

The heartbeat of this living creature was traveling through several kilometers of rock layers to the soles of his feet.

"Thump."

"Thump."

"Thump."

The coffee cup slipped from Weber's hand and shattered on the ground.

All the soldiers around him were unsteady on their feet, staggering and falling.

"Report! The global earthquake monitoring network is down!"

"Report! All satellites have lost gravity calibration with the ground! We're drifting!"

"General! Those twelve obelisks... they're operating beyond their limits! The energy readings have exceeded the limit!"

David Murray steadied himself by holding onto the wall.

His nonchalant smile vanished, replaced by a mixture of fear and a strange excitement in his eyes.

He looked at Weber and said, word by word.

"General, it seems..."

"The patient in our planetary surgery... woke up on the operating table."

……

Atlantean, command center.

The command center was deathly silent; no one knew what to do.

They were facing something completely incomprehensible and impossible to fight against.

An unknown entity that has awakened from the core of the Earth.

"What should we do? What can we do?"

Evelyn stared at the constantly deviating flight path on the screen, feeling as if her thoughts had frozen.

The planetary-level weapons they created have now completely lost their way.

Hannah tried adjusting the gravedigger's angle of advance, attempting to correct its course.

But it didn't work.

Each correction is violently disrupted by the next pulse from the Earth's core.

Every attempt they made was immediately thwarted; the opponent's power seemed inexhaustible.

"Mr. Shen!"

Evelyn finally couldn't hold on any longer. She turned around abruptly and shouted at the silent figure behind her.

"Please think of something! I beg you! If this continues, everything is doomed!"

Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC) has finally made a move.

He didn't turn around, nor did he walk towards the control panel.

He simply closed his eyes slowly.

His consciousness pierced through the deck, through the seawater ten thousand meters deep, and through the earth's crust and mantle.

Keep going down, and down some more.

Until he saw the flickering dark red dot of light.

He sensed a destructive force.

It is a cosmic phenomenon that exists solely for destruction.

It has been trapped in the Earth's core for far too long.

So long that I've forgotten everything about the outside world.

Now, the commotion caused by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation has awakened the continent that is moving on the planet's surface.

It sensed the presence of its own kind.

Shen Fei's consciousness met that will head-on without any communication or attempt to understand.

His will condensed into a single, very simple command.

[Watch.]

For an instant.

The pulse emanating from deep within the Earth's core suddenly stopped.

Inside the command center.

Evelyn's cries were still stuck in her throat.

Hannah lay motionless on the control panel.

The whole world fell silent.

On the screen, the fluctuating data stream instantly returned to normal.

The dark red dot representing the Earth's core stopped pulsating and simply floated there quietly.

Once the interference was removed, the scalpel that had gone out of control quickly corrected its course.

"The interference... has disappeared."

Hannah looked up, staring blankly at the screen, as if she were dreaming.

"Boarding... has been corrected."

"Resonance frequency...returns to zero."

What happened?

How could that crisis, which was enough to destroy everything, just disappear like that?

Everyone's eyes were instinctively drawn to the man with his eyes closed.

Shen Fei slowly opened his eyes.

His face was somewhat pale, but his eyes were more profound than ever before.

He turned around and calmly looked at the scientists who were sitting in the room, completely stunned.

"Just some guy who arrived early."

"Ignore it."

In a word.

This left Evelyn and Hannah's minds blank.

Arrive early?

The information contained in this sentence is more terrifying than the crisis itself.

This means that Shen Fei... knew about the existence of the striker from the very beginning!

His firewall project, his plan to cut off the continental shelf, his intention to use the continent to crash into prisons...

All of this is not just about dealing with the devourers in the prison.

He even included the hammerers in the Earth's core in his calculations!

In his plan, these two disasters, which were enough to destroy the earth, were merely pawns.

Evelyn looked at Shen Fei and felt a chill creeping up from the bottom of her heart for the first time.

She originally thought she was participating in a crazy planetary transformation project.

Now she understands.

She was merely responsible for handing a knife to one of the monsters in an arena arranged by a powerful figure.

"07".

Shen Fei's voice broke the silence.

I'm here, Mr. Shen.

07's voice returned to calm, as if the AI ​​that had been acting emotionally just moments before was merely a figment of everyone's imagination.

What would happen if you put two hungry wild animals in a cage?

Shen Fei walked to the main screen.

His gaze fell on the image on the right that represented Tartarus prison.

Evelyn followed his gaze.

She suddenly understood.

Using a scalpel to smash the prison and unleash the Devourer is only the first step.

The real purpose is to bring the awakened Devourer and the alarmed Knocker together.

Let the entire Atlantic Ocean be the battlefield, and let two disasters destroy each other!

This is the true face of the firewall plan.

"Evelyn, Hannah."

Shen Fei's voice sent a chill down the spines of the two women.

That continent was just the prelude.

"Now, I need you to prepare a sturdy enough container for what's to come."

Shen Fei drew a circle around the massive underwater prison on the screen with his finger.

"I need you to calculate a plan to reinforce all the structural walls of this container within nine hours."

"I don't want their fighting to disrupt my territory."
