Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1437: Multiverse

Adahua Planet.

"Origin Slate?"

In the palace, Orfasis took the stone slab that Lucy had handed him and examined it carefully. The surface of the stone slab did indeed have the patterns of the Universe Star Diagram, and it also used Adahua Planet's component method. At the same time, at the intersection of longitude and latitude in each sector, there were also diamond patterns, as if they were some kind of node.

"You can try stimulating these nodes with Origin Energy," said Lucy.

Orfasis was skeptical. He released a wisp of Origin Energy to stimulate a certain node. Immediately, the pattern on the stone slab changed, forming the outline of a certain planet, and a large number of strange symbols appeared beside it. Even the knowledgeable Great Emperor couldn't help but be shocked, "This is?"

"I accidentally discovered on my way back that what Grandmaster Gwa recorded back then should only be the initial interface of the stone slab. That's right, I use the interface to describe it, because don't you think this stone slab is very similar to our brain terminals? Giving directional stimulus, the corresponding content would be presented. "It's a pity that I don't recognize any of these symbols," said Lucy. "It's not surprising that the entire stone slab contains all the secrets of the universe, if there's information stored at every node. And I think it should do more than that. "

"What an amazing creation. According to what you said, the technology used to make this stone slab is still superior to ours."

"That's right, but there's another thing I care about." "The man told me that this slab was not made of something from this universe," Lucy said. "Does that mean there is another universe beyond ours?"

"The multiverse theory? Even Earth has such a hypothesis. It's not surprising. But even we can't confirm the existence of the multiverse. But now that we have this stone slab, those fellows from the Truth Academy will probably be overjoyed." Orfasis returned the Slate of Origin to Lucy.

Lucy took the stone slab and said, "There will be plenty of time to study the multiverse. The most important thing now is to unravel the mysteries of the stone slab and the truth about the dusk of the universe. So I want you to allocate me enough manpower and resources. This time, I think I'll need the help of the academics of the Truth Academy."

"That's no problem. I'll ask the Minister of State to arrange it for you. Let's set up a research group. Will it be okay for you to be the director?"

"Of course not," laughed Lucy.

'"Child, I know that you are risking your life for him. I hope you know that if it weren't for Alan's identity as the son of twilight, I wouldn't object to you being with him. It's true that your identities are very different, but after all these things, I know that your happiness is above all else. I believe that's what your mother would like to see." Orfasis pulled up the loose strands of Lucy's hair and said, "If this stone slab can save Alan from the fate of the Son of Twilight, then I will bless you both."

"Father." Lucy's shoulders trembled.

Orfasis shook his head and said, "You don't have to say anything. Every father is willing to give everything for his own children. But please forgive me. My children are not alone, so there are some things that Father can't take care of you."

Lucy nodded. "I know. Besides, I'm not a child anymore. I can't let you take care of everything for me."

"Alright, alright. You must be tired after coming back. Go down and rest first. I'll have the Minister of State talk to you tomorrow. I hope you can solve the secret of this Origin Slab as soon as possible."

Lucy nodded and left. The smile on Orfasis's face subsided. He frowned, and in his conversation with Lucy he had learned that the will of the temple was old acquaintance with the Rose Empress of Adahua Planet, who had once shone for an era. However, as far as Great Emperor knew, there was no record of the Son of Twilight in the Rose Empress' time. Could it be that the Empress had concealed something from him back then?

Unfortunately, the Great Empress had long since passed away, and all the truths had probably been lost in the passage of time.

Not long after, Mainne paid his respects. Seeing the Marquis, Orfasis nodded and said, "Lucy was safe this time thanks to Marquis Mainne's protection."

Mainne smiled and said, "Your Highness is a woman, but I admire her courage and perseverance. It doesn't seem unreasonable for Golden Rose to choose her as her successor."

"Lucy is indeed a strong child." Orfasis's expression darkened. "Has the Marquis found out anything about the mercenaries?" He said.

"We've already found out that the mercenary group that attacked us is called 'Iron Hook'. It has a small reputation in the Ugus market, and the success rate of the mission is not low."

Orfasis said, "The market in Ugus? That grey area, isn't it destroyed yet? Doesn't it mean that the stars are on the verge of extinction?"

"Like Evernight Star, he's already struggling to survive. However, it won't be the end yet." "As for the Iron Hook Mercenary Company, according to the information I have received from my sources, they recently accepted a mysterious mission," said Mainne.

"Needless to say, that mission was to deal with Lucy." Orfasis's eyes were filled with anger.

'"Yes, Your Majesty," said Mainne. "I was going to use the mercenary corps to find out the employer behind them, but it was too late. Tie Gou and the middleman who recommended the mission to them were both interrupted. It could be said that the biggest clue was broken. Of course, there were other clues, but it was much harder to find."

"No matter how difficult it is, no matter how long it takes, we still have to investigate." '"It's not just for Lucy, but for the other princes and daughters," Orfasis said in a low voice. "Even if I can't track them down for a while, I want them to know that my children are inviolable!"

Mainne nodded and said, "I see, Your Majesty."

Very quickly, a research team was set up to study the Origin Slate. For convenience, they simply set up the research site in the Academy of Truth. As the head of the team, Lucy was busy for the rest of the time. Apart from sleeping, he spent most of his time in the Truth Courtyard.

A few days later, Angeloni got a day off. As usual, she boarded a public airship and headed to the surface. Although she was Lucy's personal bodyguard, she was not qualified to own her own house in Golden City. However, as one of the benefits of the royal guards, she did not have to live in the barracks' dormitory as before. Instead, she had her own building on the surface.

When he returned to his so-called home, he opened the door and saw a few suitcases on the ground. It was the luggage that she had been sent back to her residence after returning from Evernight Star according to her request.

Angeloni jumped over the box and headed straight for the hall. As she walked into the bright hall from the darkness, a saber light illuminated Angeloni's eyes at the moment the light and darkness met. When she did not move, the saber light disappeared, and a long saber was only a millimeter away from her eyes.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll slash you to the end with this saber?" A female voice said.

Angeloni smiled. "If you did that, you would be a corpse now. My golem string is no joke. Haven't you learned your lesson, Miss Hanna?"

With a cold snort, Angeloni retracted her saber and her gaze landed on the blonde figure. It was Hannah, the mercenary. If Luo Wen saw this scene, he would be so shocked that he could not help but smile from ear to ear. After all, he thought that the members of the Iron Hook Mercenary Group were already dead. How could he have imagined that there would be another Hannah who wasn't dead?

That day, Hannah caught up with Sacred Mountain and bumped into Angeloni on the mountain path. The two women fought to the death, and in the end, Hannah was defeated. However, Angeloni did not kill her. Instead, she threatened Hannah to work for her by using a puppet line.

Hannah's first mission was to sneak out of Sulaka and hide in a starship before Lucy and her team returned, then hide in one of Angeloni's suitcases. After that, Angeloni's luggage was sent back to her residence, so she naturally brought Hannah over smoothly.

With Hannah's skill, it wasn't difficult to do this. She had been in Angeloni's house for several days, but no one knew that an alien had entered Adahua Planet without anyone noticing.

"Eat something?" Angeloni told her brain to prepare food.

Hannah wiped her saber and said, "Whatever."

Then he said, "What do you want me to do?"

Angeloni picked out the recipe and said, "I want you to live a better life. Look at you. With your skills, you have no future with those low-class mercenaries. Why don't you work for me and make sure that the benefits are a hundred times better than that bullshit mercenary group of yours?"

Hanna sneered, "If I remember correctly, you are the imperial daughter's bodyguard, right? When did a bodyguard have the guts to secretly let the assassin off without saying anything and ask me to work for you?"

"Are you rich?"

Angeloni smiled and walked into a room. After a while, he came back with a handbag in his hand. She tossed the bag under Hannah's feet: "Open it."

Hannah opened the bag and was dazzled by what was inside. The bag looked ordinary, but there were many expensive crystals, well-preserved beast cores, and some priceless precious metals inside. These items were enough to buy three or five iron hook mercenary corps. Hannah could not understand how a guard could be so rich.

Of course, Angeloni would not tell her that some of these items were snatched from Lawsen, while others were taken from her by taking advantage of her authority to kill the wanted criminals.

"Believe it. Anyway, who do you work for is not for the reward? How about it, sister can still afford your reward, right?" Angeloni said with a smile.

Hannah nodded, "Then take off your fucking golem string first."

"That won't do. We still don't trust each other. It's better to have more insurance."

"Then what do you want me to do?" Hannah gritted her teeth.

"The first task, I want to know who is going to harm Lucy. That is to find the employer behind you. You are a member of the mercenary corps. That shouldn't be difficult, right?" Angeloni blinked her eyes and said, "Oh right, I heard that your hook is coming. In this way, you will find the employer for me in public and private, right?"

"There's no need for you to do such a thing. It's about the royal family. Your emperor will definitely go all out."

"The emperor is the emperor, I am me. You don't have to worry about that much. Just find me an employer. I will give you some identification. You can freely enter and exit Adahua Planet. As long as you don't go to Golden City, it won't be too much of a problem." Angeloni leaned forward with a dangerous glint in her eyes. "You have to be careful, just give me the information you need to find your employer. Don't do anything unnecessary," she said.

"I see "
