Humans are in chaos, despicable outsiders.

Brownie thought for a moment, looked out the window, and pointed to the most conspicuous building in the city, a landmark building completely covered by black opaque glass.

"Hey bro, do you know what important thing is going to happen soon?"

Long-haired Seele grabbed a passing coffee shop waiter and started trying to get information out of him—

"Big news...? You're all members of the Flame Chaser, right? Didn't you know about the victory over the Twelfth Herrscher?"

"To boost morale, the city is holding a celebration... These are some of the few days when the city is bustling with activity, so everyone should remember to relax and have some fun..."

The waiter who was stopped smiled at Seele, gave an explanation, and then hurriedly left.

"The Twelfth Herrscher... Bronya, do your Schicksal or Anti-Entropy records contain any descriptions of this Herrscher from the previous civilization?"

"The twelfth law, the law of erosion... Hmm, according to the records, it can be said to be a major contributing factor to the destruction of the previous civilization..."

"It seems to be some kind of meme virus. According to the few records left behind, it invaded the biological and mechanical systems of the civilization at that time, thereby controlling the arsenal of the Firemoth and launching strategic weapons all over the world..."

"The pre-civilization thus collapsed and never recovered."

"So, this group's celebration... was more like a doomsday carnival? I can understand the explosion though..."

Brownie and Big Hill nodded thoughtfully.

“Bronya’s guess is different from yours… The last explosion in the distance seemed like it was the activation of some kind of weapon… Let Bronya think about it, I seem to recall seeing this scene in a report…”

...

"I've got it! This explosion is very similar to the photographic record of the Heavenly Judgment in the intelligence about Sky City that Destiny received before..."

“Hey... Bronya, what you're saying does sound a lot like it.”

Bronny, who was present at the time and was reminded by Bronya, nodded.

"So...why did the Fusion Warriors of the Flame Chaser use Heavenly Fire during the festival, causing an explosion...?"

As soon as the old questions were answered, new ones immediately followed...

"Um...Seele has made a discovery..."

Short-haired Seele, who hadn't spoken until now, quietly joined the discussion.

"Oh, Little Xi'er, do you have any ideas or thoughts? You can tell us about them!"

The remaining three nodded encouragingly to the girl, waiting for her to continue.

"This is it... Seele found this on her, I wonder if the other me and the two Bronya sisters have it too..."

The blue-haired girl pushed a work ID onto the table—

It was a work ID with the girl's name on it and a close-up photo of her... and the Moth of the Flame logo was printed on the back...

"...?"

Looking at the work ID, or rather, the IC card, everyone pondered for a moment, then looked down and began searching their own bodies.

Then the other three ID cards were also found.

"What departments are you all from? I'm from the Armed Forces Department... which suits me quite well."

Long-haired Seele looked at her ID card and nodded with some satisfaction.

"Bronya and Brownie are from the technical support department."

The two ducks exchanged a glance, seemingly having found a rival...

"Seele...Seele is in the logistics department."

“Great—we’ll probably have staff dormitories or something...and barring any unforeseen circumstances, we’ll even be able to get into the very heart of the celebration party—”

"Then we'll see what happens...maybe we'll even get into a fight."

Da Xi'er rubbed her hands together impatiently.

"Ahem, let's fill our stomachs before we fight..."

Following the principle of "since we're already here, let's have a meal first," Brownie picked up the coffee shop's menu.

--

While the group in the Sea of ​​Quanta were discussing what to eat, the group from the City of the Abyss and the leaders of Anti-Entropy were staring at the calm gate of the Eye of the Abyss, itching with hatred.

"What's wrong with this thing??? It suddenly started up, and now no matter how much energy I put into it, it's not responding?!"

Tesla angrily kicked the tightly closed Abyss Eye on the ground, looking utterly displeased...

"Ah... I found a manual that comes with the Eye of the Abyss... Hmm... the name is quite unique..."

Dr. Iserling flipped through the tablet, seemingly having made a new discovery.

"Ah, Green-haired Seaweed Head, what did you find? And what other strange names do you have? Tell me about them."

Dr. Lobster Head kicked the Eye of the Abyss device on the ground a few times, then turned his attention to Iserlin beside him.

"Hmm...it's so long—"

"The Eye of the Abyss technical operation manual has been revised and revised again, and I will never change it again, even if Dr. Mei puts a knife to my throat. The previous one has already been 'knife-wielded'—a meticulously revised and rewritten manual, version 13.0pro+???"

"This book serves to supplement the instructions for the maintenance and repair of the Eye of the Abyss; see entry 1551 for details..."

With a contorted expression, Iserly adjusted the page number to page 1551 and then read the contents aloud, word by word—

"If the Eye of the Abyss malfunctions and fails to charge... do not press the initialization button on the control panel. That thing was just a perfunctory measure to appease the higher-ups during their inspections; it's slow and inefficient..."

"Based on long-term practice... Researchers, please wear size 42 sneakers and strike each of the six launching devices in the Eye of the Abyss seven times with your footsteps... The force of each strike should be as follows...???"

"...?"

Tesla, Einstein, and Iserling, the three top scientists in the field of anti-entropy, began to look at each other... and then their expressions gradually became distorted; while Walter Young and Walter Joyce, who arrived later, directly slapped their palms on their faces.

The two men then ushered out the group still waiting above the gate and began frantically striking the six generating devices according to the instructions...

.....

"I always feel that the technology of previous civilizations... sometimes had some unreliable aspects..."

"Who knows... It works well, after all, it's based on the experience of our predecessors, even if it seems a bit outrageous... We should get ready to rescue people soon."

Chapter 253 Persuading People to Leave

As the two men on the field took turns repairing the generator, the Eye of the Abyss was restarted with a muffled buzzing sound.

"It actually works..."

The Destiny group, who were completely unaware of these advanced technologies, and Cocolia's two adopted daughters remarked in amazement that science truly is amazing...

"Anyway, although I don't know the exact reason, the Eye of the Abyss has restarted normally..."

Wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, Iserly waved to the few people watching nearby, signaling them to come and join the discussion.

"First, I have some bad news. Because the activation was very sudden, the recorder may not contain any records of the bubble world that sucked Bronya and the others away, or their whereabouts."

Adhering to a rigorous attitude, Iserly looked at the group of people who had gathered around and informed them of the potential uncertainties in the plan.

"Then... is it still possible for us to find Bronya?"

Upon hearing this news, Theresa's expression became somewhat anxious, and she pressed the green-haired doctor for answers.

"Of course, we can track them using other methods, but that would consume more resources and take longer, increasing the likelihood of the two children encountering danger..."

"But I heard that Bronya completed the training and assessment for an A-rank Valkyrie at Schicksal Level 1, is that right?"

Iserling looked at Theresa, seemingly intending to give her some confidence.

"Oh right... Bronya has recently been promoted to A-rank Valkyrie."

After being reminded by Iserlin, Theresa understood something...

"So let's give that child more confidence... Besides, there's no use in us being anxious now—there's a saying in China, 'Haste makes waste.'"

Iserlin calmed the somewhat agitated Theresa while continuing to operate the tablet, seemingly retrieving recent records.

"Hmm... Level 1 authorization, authorization successful—let's go to the control room to check the records first. If there are any records, that would be best."

Dr. Green nodded and walked toward the building next to him.

"If not, Doctor, if not, how are we supposed to find Bronya and the others?! You haven't told us yet!"

Theresa, with her short legs, strode quickly to catch up with Iserlyn, who was hurrying upstairs, and pressed her for details about the second option after the failure.

"The second option...you guys have all used computers before, right?"

Iserlin thought for a while about a bunch of scientific terms, then looked at the Valkyrie in front of her who looked like a female warrior, and swallowed the explanation that was about to come out, replacing it with a more colloquial one.

"Computers? Of course, we use them every day!"

“That explains it... Bishop Theresa, when you can’t find a file, but you’re sure it’s not lost or deleted, and it’s just somewhere on your hard drive, what do you choose to do?”

Iselin looked at Theresa in front of her.

"Hmm... I'll have Bronya or my adjutant help me find it!!!"

The white-haired dwarf's answer utterly shocked Dr. Green. Nine Heavens, along with Destiny and the Anti-Entropy group following behind, could clearly see Dr. Iserlyn's face gradually contorting; of course, the expressions of the others weren't much better...

"...Now I understand why you were so slow at processing those documents, Theresa, and it's a miracle that Bronya wasn't driven crazy by you."

Jiuxiao took a deep breath and then exhaled—when you try to teach an elderly person how to use a computer.mp3

Just hearing that makes my blood pressure rise...

"Sigh...what's so strange about it...I'm just not good at using these weird things!"

Theresa waved her fist in displeasure, threatening the people behind her who had already begun to smirk.

"Go find a basic computer tutorial... Bishop Theresa."

Iselin, who had also taken a deep breath to adjust her blood pressure and heart rate, gave the genius beside her a long look and continued the previous topic.

"We will search the entire system for the file by entering its name in the search box...and the second plan works in the same way."

"The Eye of the Abyss, which served as a facility for studying the Quantum Sea in the previous era, naturally also had some programs set up to rescue missing researchers... It can search for observable world bubbles and Quantum Sea blocks just like searching for disk files."

"Hmm... I understand, but Doctor, wouldn't it take too long to search them one by one..."

Jiuxiao quickly grasped some of the explanation given by Dr. Green Algae Head, and then raised his own questions.

"Computer searches are fast because we categorize files and store them on different disks, so we only need to search a specific disk... But what about the Sea of ​​Quanta?"
